Chapter 286: Lord Yuhu is a disaster star
What's going on? Aren't you talking about Lord Yuhu? Why are you firing your cannons at the ministers one by one?
Minister of Revenue Liu Deng felt even more aggrieved.
He still feels pain in his dreams from thinking about the account book that was smashed by His Majesty last time!
Now he hadn't said anything to Minister Ge, so why was he being made fun of again? This was outrageous.
"It is true that Lord Yuhu contributed the most to this case, and I can testify to that. If Lord Yuhu had not been so foresighted and able to see through the identity of the murderer at a glance, it would have been impossible to solve the case so quickly." Lu Qian said in a calm voice.
Huo Zeyuan also nodded, "I second the motion."
Although there might be some misunderstanding between him and Lord Jade Fox, he always felt that the way Lord Jade Fox looked at him was strange.
But Huo Zeyuan still admired Yu Hu's speed in solving cases from the bottom of his heart.
The emperor nodded, and comforted Ximen Bugui with a pleasant expression, "Jade Fox solved the case very quickly, worthy of being the chief judge of the Demon Suppression Division."
"Don't worry, my dear Ximen. I will remember all the credit given to Jade Fox, and I will not lose a single cent."
"Your Majesty!" Wang Zeng was dissatisfied. "She beat the Princess of Yongding earlier. I heard that the Princess is still unable to get out of bed and walk properly! How can she be rewarded again?"
"What kind of beating?" Mu Zhao said indifferently, "Why did I hear that it was a mutual fight? Princess Yongding took an arrow and shot a fourth-rank official of the imperial court. Is that reasonable?"
"Since it was a mutual fight, there is nothing to say. Both sides were wrong." Prince Pingkang nodded and said, "Besides, it has been a long time since this happened. Why is it brought up in the court meeting now? What does Lord Wang want to do? Wasn't it already determined to be a mutual fight? And wasn't Lord Yuhu punished by His Majesty by a salary deduction? Bringing up old issues is a waste of court time."
The emperor's sons, one, two, four, five, six, all turned to look at them with strange looks in their eyes.
Mu Zhao had a blank expression on his face, while Prince Pingkang was smiling without showing any unnecessary emotions.
Uh... one, two, four, five, six, I couldn’t figure it out. I turned back to look at their father on the throne.
The emperor was obviously annoyed by Wang Zeng. "Minister Wang, let's get back to the old ways. Reward him according to his merits. Don't bring up the past anymore."
The emperor appeased old man Ximen again and personally gave Lord Yuhu some gold, silver and jade as a reward, also to make up for the salary that Lord Yuhu had been fined...
The meaning is very clear, to reward the subordinates for continued efforts and to continue to handle the case well for the court.
Everyone thought that the storm was over and they would be able to get off work soon, and just as they were quietly breathing a sigh of relief, an extremely familiar old man with a stern face and a goatee walked out of the line in a heroic and imposing manner.
"Your Majesty!" he said loudly, "I, Hong Huachou, impeach the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Wang Zeng, for his improper conduct and moral corruption, and for accepting bribes privately! Here is a letter of impeachment, and I hope Your Majesty will take a look at it."
All the officials in the court twitched their lips and stared at the old man who stepped out of the line, speechless.
Here he comes, the Imperial Censor is here again with his uncaring steps...
Princes one, two, four, five, and six looked at Old Master Hong silently, then raised their heads to look at their father.
Sure enough, I saw the emperor on the throne, covering his head with one hand, and his eyelids were twitching. I guess he was feeling very helpless.
Among all the civil and military officials in the court, the most panicked one was the Vice Minister of Justice, Wang Zeng.
Everyone else was just watching the fun, but Wang Zeng jumped up in shock, holding his tablet and yelling, "Your Majesty! I am innocent."
"What injustice do you have?" The old and conservative censor glared and blew his beard, "Lord Wang, please be patient and wait until His Majesty has read my impeachment letter before speaking."
Fude smiled, pinched his little orchid finger, ran down the stairs, took the memorial from Lord Hong, and trotted all the way to the emperor's side.
Wang Zeng watched anxiously as the emperor opened the impeachment memorial and pulled out a few sheets of yellow paper that were obviously old, thinking to himself that this was not good.
The emperor quickly glanced at the document with a cold face and looked at Wang Zeng. Wang Zeng lowered his head and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, I dare not accept any bribes. These are all baseless accusations made by Lord Hong."
The emperor clenched his fist and coughed a few times, his eyes falling coldly on him, "Do you know the leader of the Zhu family troupe, one of the leaders of the gold case?"
Wang Zeng raised his head quickly, tears streaming down his face, "Your Majesty, how could I possibly know him..."
"Master Wang, you should think it over before you speak." Mu Zhao lowered his eyes slightly and said calmly, "The bandit leader Zhu Banzhu has handed over part of your account book. It clearly states when you went to him for pleasure when you were an official in Jinzhou."
"In addition, when you were an official in Jinzhou, you colluded with the local gentry and wealthy families to bring disaster to the neighbors for many years. There are traces of this."
Hong Huachou cupped his hands and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, Lord Wang has behaved improperly and is greedy for young girls. He has also accepted bribes from wealthy businessmen in Jinzhou. As an official of the Ministry of Justice, he is not upright himself. How can he lead our Great Qi to implement laws and regulations?"
"I hope Your Majesty will send the case of Lord Wang to the Dali Temple for a thorough investigation."
The emperor slammed the letter down on the table with a thump, "Wang Zeng, what do you have to say?"
Wang Zeng was sweating profusely, his face as pale as a dead person.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent."
"Your Majesty." Mu Zhao stepped forward and bowed, saying politely, "Whether Lord Wang has done those things or not, we only need to send someone to Jinzhou to investigate secretly and we will know."
"The local people of Jinzhou must have felt this more deeply than anyone else."
The emperor glared at the sweaty Wang Zeng with a cold face, then turned to the expressionless Dali Temple Minister Liang Guang and said, "My dear Liang, I will leave this matter to your Dali Temple."
"Jinzhou is not far from the capital. I will give you seven days to thoroughly investigate everything!"
Liang Guang rolled his eyes secretly.
What's going on? They are destined to be in trouble. No matter what the matter is, it will be thrown to the Dali Temple in the end...
He felt sorry for the child Xiao Lu. He was always running around here and there every day. Look how tired the child was.
Liang Guang glanced silently at the Minister of War beside him with a look of disgust.
Minister Lu looked puzzled, thinking to himself, why are you glaring at me when the Emperor has assigned you to the Dali Temple?
After leaving the palace, Liang Guang held Minister Lu's sleeve and talked to him all the way, "Why didn't you say anything just now? The emperor handed Wang Zeng's case to us, wasn't it handed over to your son?"
"As a father, you don't even feel sorry for your son!"
Minister Lu pulled back his sleeves and said, "At such a young age, he naturally needs to go out and gain experience. Your Majesty is creating a good opportunity for him."
"I knew you were not Xiwen's biological father! Seven days, just give me seven days if you are willing to give it up."
"I can't bear to let go, what can I do? I can just follow your example and lie on the ground and cry to His Majesty. Do you still want to save my reputation?"
"Face face face you only know face!"
Behind them, Lu Qian looked at the two people helplessly as they walked down the stairs. Turning around, he heard several adults passing by muttering to each other.
"I said this Jade Fox is a disaster!" (End of this chapter)
