The Evil King's Crazy Wife: The World of Ghost Concubine

Chapter 678
Liu Weixiang wanted to stay and watch the play, it also depended on whether Yun Jingtian would give him this opportunity, just as he finished speaking, the group of people who had helped Liu Weixiang speak before didn't dare to fart, they all lowered their heads and dared not Say one more word.

The emperor nodded in agreement: "What the general said is very true. There is always a priority. There is no need to delay the disaster relief. This matter should be decided first, so that the people of the world can give an explanation."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Being praised by Yun Jingtian like this, the emperor wished he could raise his tail so much that he squinted his eyes with a smile on his face.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Liu Weixiang took advantage of the lack of strength of the two guards to break free from the restraints, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, although Old General Yun is highly respected, he has abdicated after all, so how can he participate in important affairs of the court? Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Yun Jingtian turned his head and glanced at him, and the Dragon Subduing Staff in his hand was instantly lifted up. Yun Jingtian held up the Dragon Subduing Staff with one hand, pointed at Liu Weixiang who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted: "As the general of Zhen Guo General, although he has stepped down due to old age and is recuperating at home, he is still in the position, and he was entrusted by the late emperor. Whenever Dayan needs this general, he will be obliged to do so. How majestic you are in this hall, how can you be alone? The guilty minister is talking nonsense here, Liu Weixiang, you have been an official for many years, but you don't even understand the basic rules. Although you are a first-rank official, you are already a knight. You are tall, the emperor is wise, he knows whether he is qualified to stand in this hall and speak, and when it is your turn to teach him, it is simply presumptuous!"

Yun Jingtian fought countless battles, and walked to his seat today by stepping on the corpses of his enemies. No one can imagine how powerful he is like this, and only those above this hall can understand that in front of Yun Jingtian , They all became ants.

A treacherous and cunning person like Liu Weixiang was so frightened by Yun Jingtian's words that he couldn't utter a word with trembling lips.

Yun Jingtian made a decisive decision, turned around and looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, please ask for instructions!"

The emperor hummed, and ordered: "De'an, draw up the decree."

"No." De'an winked, and the little eunuchs under him went to prepare pens and inks, and the historian who was waiting by the side at any time was in charge of writing, recording every word the emperor said.

"Criminal Liu Weixiang, who privately hid a total of 10 taels of silver for disaster relief, deserves to be punished for his crime. He has been an official in the court for many years, and has merits and demerits. He is pardoned for the death penalty, demoted to a commoner as appropriate, distributed to the frontier, and will never be allowed to enter the capital."

Liu Weixiang listened to the truth, his whole body was limp on the ground, his empty eyes were wide open, and he couldn't say a word.

After all, he lost. In fact, he should have guessed it a long time ago. Yun Changqing is from the Yun family, and Yun Jingtian is still panting. How could he possibly win against the Yun family? , deserve it!
When he was taken away, Liu Weixiang's eyes were dull, and he seemed to be stupid, but no one present would pity him. In officialdom, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This is a very normal thing. When he When deciding to face Yun Changqing, he should understand that there must be someone unlucky between them, but he overestimated himself and underestimated the Yun family.

Liu Weixiang was taken away, but the matter was not over yet. The prime minister said: "Your Majesty, thinking about it now, Liu Weixiang has been in charge of disaster relief funds for the past few years, and there will be riots every year. I'm afraid there is something tricky about it."

"The prime minister is right. Let the Shuntian Mansion investigate this matter. If something is found out, it won't be too late to seal up the Liu Mansion. Let the guards not withdraw first, so as to prevent Liu Weixiang from stealing the dragon and turning into a phoenix."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Wang Huilun, governor of Shuntian Prefecture, took orders, and the matter was considered to be over.

The emperor looked at Yun Jingtian: "General, the guilty minister Liu Weixiang has already dealt with it. Next, it's time to talk about the prince. The prince deceived the emperor. The ministers suggested that I depose the prince. What does the general think?"

"Depose the prince?" Yun Jingtian smiled: "If the prince really intends to deceive the emperor, then the dethroning is considered a small matter, but this time the prince has a reason. In order to help the people of Tongzhou find out the truth about the disappearance of 10 taels of silver, if This can be regarded as a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, so who will dare to use this method to try cases in the future, and how many people here have handled cases before, everyone should know this case handling method."

"Yes, what the general said is very true."

"My lords, you don't need to flatter me in front of this general. What did you say before, and what do you still say now, who said that you want to depose the prince, please stand up and say it again, why did you depose the prince, and what heinous things did the prince do? , it is so serious to abolish the crown prince!"

Yun Jingtian's majesty made all the officials shrink their necks, no one dared to stand up and speak, even the official minister who was the loudest at the beginning also bowed his head and remained silent.

Yan Beirong was extremely angry. Although he knew that Yan Beiqin would not be able to be pulled down so easily, but this opportunity was indeed rare, and he was very happy to hear it. It took only a little time for the situation to be reversed. The Yun family was indeed his biggest obstacle!

Li Deqing, Minister of the Household Department, sneered and asked: "Master Zheng, didn't you just say that the prince should be severely punished for deceiving the emperor, why are you silent now? Could it be I suddenly figured it out, and I think His Royal Highness is justifiable?"

Zheng Yunsheng pretended to cough twice, wishing he could slap Li Deqing to death, he had never seen him so active just now, how could he dare to say anything now.

He subconsciously looked at Yun Jingtian's face, and seeing that he was also looking at him, he immediately turned his head away again, and for the sake of his own face, he said bravely: "I did say that, even if His Royal Highness is bullying the king Circumstances are extenuating, but bullying the emperor is deceiving the emperor, we can’t let it go just because of the words extenuating circumstances, then everyone will follow suit in the future, what is the majesty of the emperor.”

Yun Jingtian nodded: "Master Zheng is right, the crown prince deceives the emperor, and he should be punished heavily, but if this punishment deposes the crown prince, I have to think carefully, is there someone taking advantage of the situation to make a move, with evil intentions?"

What did Yun Jingtian say? When he said these words, the emperor's face changed suddenly, and he glanced at Zheng Yunsheng with cold eyes, and asked with a half-smile: "I didn't think of this, why don't Zheng Aiqing and I talk about it carefully?" Said, what is the reason for claiming to punish the prince severely?"

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged!" Zheng Yunsheng knelt on the ground with a plop, "I also think about the emperor's prestige. The prince is a prince after all. What good is it for me to offend the prince? I say this for the sake of the emperor. It didn't say that the prince would be deposed, but that he would be severely punished."

After Zheng Yunsheng finished speaking, those who had previously said that the prince would be severely punished nodded, indicating that they did not say they would depose the prince.

Look, all of them are very good at the ability to say nothing!
