The goddess medical concubine charms the world

Chapter 309
  Mu Yibai was reluctant but still let the two of them in.

Ye Huashang, the Minister of Rites, and Qi Huairen, the cabinet scholar, came in. As soon as they entered the door, they knelt down and saluted Mu Yibai:
  "Why do you two come to the palace at this time?"

Mu Yibai was really not in a good mood, and he knew that these two guys were here to beg for mercy.

Sure enough, as soon as Mu Yibai finished asking, Qi Huairen knelt on the ground and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, I want to ask about Shen Yuanchang's case!"

Mu Yibai said angrily:

"Shen Yuanchang, corrupt and perverting the law, preying on the common people. Do you still want to beg for mercy from such a faint official?"

Qi Huairen knelt on the ground with a pious expression on his face:
  "Your Majesty, I don't want to displease Your Majesty, but..."

"If you don't want to plead, then don't ask!"

Before Qi Huairen could finish speaking, Mu Yibai directly blocked Qi Huairen's words. Qi Huairen froze on the spot, saying that it was not true, and unwilling to say anything.

Qi Huairen thought for a long time and finally said loudly:
  "Your Majesty, Shen Yuanchang did something wrong indeed, but he was also coerced. The old minister went to interrogate him in person yesterday. He has always regretted it in prison, regretting that he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Even if it was because the family members were being coerced, they shouldn't have done so many wrong things! "

Mu Yibai looked at Qi Huairen and gritted his teeth angrily. What was originally a simple case, but what Qi Huairen said, finally turned into coercing the court official.

Mu Yibai gritted his teeth and said:
  "You mean I was wrong?"

Qi Huairen knelt on the ground and kowtowed:
  "Wei Chen doesn't mean this, Your Majesty!"

"Then what do you mean? I can't deal with a corrupt official who preys on the common people?"

Mu Yibai became more and more angry as he spoke, his face looked extremely gloomy, and he raised the inkstone in his hand high. But Qi Huairen has one more thing to say.

Mu Yibai would definitely smash the inkstone in his hand.

The corners of Qi Huairen's mouth twitched twice, and all the words stuck in his mouth were either said or not.

He just pursed his lips and stared at the inkstone in Mu Yibai's hand.

Mu Yibai just stared at Qi Huairen, the moment Mu Yibai put the inkstone in his hand on the table.

Qi Huairen immediately opened his mouth and shouted:
  "Your Majesty, there are many grain merchants on the route south. Shen Yuanchang's family members were kidnapped and threatened by those grain merchants. In order to save his wife and children, Shen Yuanchang was not allowed to do this. Over the years, Shen Yuanchang has worked hard and never slackened off. He has managed well and allowed the bank to The people of the city live and work in peace and contentment. Please forgive Shen Yuanchang this time in view of his previous achievements!"

Qi Huairen shouted these words in one breath at lightning speed.

at the same time. The inkstone that Mu Yibo had just put down also fell down, hitting Qi Huairen on the head.

Qi Huairen's head suddenly started bleeding, but Qi Huairen still finished his words.

This was obviously forcing the emperor to show mercy. Mu Yibai stood up angrily, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to hit someone.

Qi Huairen knelt on the ground and didn't say anything. He knocked his head on the ground in a do-it-yourself manner.

But before Mu Yibai could step forward, Mu Jin'an stood in front of Qi Huairen:

"Uncle Emperor, please don't get angry. Master Qi is acting like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. Is it possible that Uncle Emperor really wants to pour a basin of hot water on him?" When Mu Jin'an said this, Mu Jin'an seemed to be worried. He looked at Qi Huairen lying on the ground with a smile.

Qi Huairen was so angry that his teeth were itching.

After all, he was a bachelor of the cabinet and the head of the civil service, but he was compared to a pig by a young boy like Mu Jin'an.

This is simply pointing at your own nose and humiliating yourself.

But he had always known about the rumors about Mu Jin'an in the capital, and he would never give anyone face by speaking. Now he just had to pretend to be dead. He didn't believe that the emperor would not give him, the head of the civil service, face.

At this time Mu Jinan continued:
  "Master Qi, you said that Shen Yuanchang used to be upright and well-governed! What you said is completely contrary to the facts I found. The fact I found is that Shen Yuanchang likes to bully men, women, and the people! He also slaps The emperor's banner is based on clever pretexts and excessive levies. The local people cannot bear to exploit the refugees who came to Beijing this time, and there must be many reasons for this, right?"

When Qi Huairen heard this, he immediately raised his head and looked at Mu Jin'an angrily:
  "Nonsense! Shen Yuanchang was clearly under coercion and had no choice but to do so. There must be some unscrupulous people who wanted to take advantage of this incident to slander the imperial officials."

Mu Jin'an looked at Qi Huairen and thought, if Qi Huairen dared to say this, he must have done something behind the scenes.

Anyway, Shen Yuanchang was just a bait he put down this time, if he didn't want to find out the person behind Shen Yuanchang.

He was killed directly on the day the case was found out. Why wait until now?

He was fishing for a long time because he just wanted to see the power in the DPRK. Let’s see how many people’s interests a Shen Yuanchang will involve!

"Master Qi seems to be very excited! Those who don't know may think that Master Qi has something in Shen Yuanchang's hands! Otherwise, why would Master Qi bother so much about Shen Yuanchang?"

Qi Huairen's expression changed suddenly when he said this, and Mu Yibai followed closely and said:

"Qi Huairen, you spared no effort to plead for Shen Yuanchang, is it possible that you really have a handle and someone pinched you? Why don't I see you plead for others?"

Mu Yibai said and quickly returned to his seat and sat down:
  "Qi Huairen, I see that your behavior is abnormal. Could it be that you have really been pinched to your death? That you are crying and begging for mercy for him!"

Qi Huairen's heart was full of energy at this moment. He had originally planned to be the meat on the hob today. He understood the emperor's temper, and he just wanted to let the emperor vent his anger.

Then the rest is easy to talk about, but he didn't want to bring the problem to himself?
  At this time, he had already scolded Mu Jinan a thousand times in his heart.

"Your Majesty, this veteran is loyal to the country, and he is even more loyal to the Emperor. It is because of this loyalty that the veteran came to intercede with Shen Yuanchang. He just doesn't want the capable minister to suffer unjust injustice and make the courtiers feel cold, Your Majesty!"

Mu Jin'an stood aside and said with a smile:

"Well, Master Qi means that I won't chill you, but I can chill the hearts of the people, right? Sir Qi, have you ever heard that water can carry a boat and also capsize it? If it really chills the hearts of the people, this sky The country is going to be in chaos. Is it possible that Mr. Qi wants to see that kind of result?"

Mu Jin'an didn't say this nonsense. Although it was a bit disrespectful, in his dreams recently, he always dreamed of scenes of chaos in the Cangqiong Kingdom.

Although he didn't know why he had such a dream, he was frightened when he thought about the miserable suffering of the people in the dream and the corpses littering the land of Cangqiong Kingdom.

So he would never allow this to happen.

Qi Huairen raised his head and looked at Mu Jinan:

"Prince Chang'an, don't talk about him. We are talking about Shen Yuanchang's case now!"
