The concubine Jinghua first-class poisonous concubine

Chapter 958
The next day, before the morning court, all the adults stood neatly in two rows, but the atmosphere was not as relaxed as before.

Many people looked at the prime minister's position frequently, only to find that today's prime minister came later than anyone else, which was really not his style.

While everyone was guessing differently, there were a few adults who understood it differently.

They went to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, and they have already informed that they will jointly sign a letter today, please Your Majesty to give Lord Zhang justice.However, the Prime Minister's answer yesterday was ambiguous, and today he has not appeared for a long time. Maybe they have already made some moves before they knew it, so they were secretly happy.

"Your Majesty is here—"

The shrill voice sounded, and everyone immediately restrained their expressions and stood up straight. It was not until the bright yellow figure appeared on the high platform that the neat voice came, "Long live Your Majesty."

"Everyone loves you." Emperor Lian looked around majesticly. Now he is completely different from his absent-minded appearance at any time. Every look and movement has his meaning, and he gradually begins to let The civil and military officials in the audience speculated carefully.

"The weather has been changing recently, and unfortunately even the Prime Minister has been infected with the wind and cold. All my loves, take care of yourself."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Emperor Lian opened his mouth, everyone suddenly realized that the reason why the prime minister did not attend the morning court today was because he was infected with the cold!This is the first time in a long time!
And several adults have already shown a bit of panic, their plan today includes the prime minister, and now the prime minister actually claims that the illness will not appear, so it is really unexpected that they lack a strong support.But today is the last chance.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials slowly stood up, "I report to Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Emperor Lian restrained his expression, but the corner of his mouth curled up into a meaningful arc, "What is Aiqing going to do?"

He took out a memorial from his sleeve, and then several adults stood up and knelt down together. This scene made Emperor Lian raise his eyebrows slightly, "What's the meaning of the loves?" , but they are all the emperor's people.

"Regarding the arrest of Mr. Zhang's encroachment, please be enlightened by His Majesty, and give Mr. Zhang justice."

When the matter of Mr. Zhang was mentioned, the surroundings immediately became quiet, and even breathing became extremely weak.

The Taifu suddenly chuckled, and his stern eyes swept over the adults, "Isn't there enough evidence for Mr. Zhang? Why don't you take a look at it again, so you can stay calm."

"Master Taifu's words are wrong. The so-called evidence is just one-sided words of some thugs, not enough to convict! Master Zhang is a clean and honest official. He has made a lot of contributions to the Lian Kingdom over the years. Your Majesty will not be raped." People have deceived and wronged loyal ministers!"

Another adult stood up, "One-sided words? If that's the case, why did Master Zhang stop the young master of Zhongyuan Villa when he went to Beijing to ask for a performance, and sent someone to take away the young master's wife and children? What is a guilty conscience?"

"Master Li's words cannot be taken into consideration. The Zhongyuan Villa has been in business for generations. As the saying goes, ten merchants and nine traitors, how can the merchants be trusted? Presumably they have accepted instructions from some caring people in order to go to Beijing to wrong Mr. Zhang !” The words of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials immediately set off an uproar.

"Shangshu's words, I am afraid that if it is spread, the merchants of the entire lotus country will be outraged! The prosperity of a country is inseparable from the prosperity of its business. It is a bit too much for Shangshu to emphasize agriculture and despise business. Superficial!"

"That's right! Most people who are engaged in business are quick-witted and talented in our Lotus Kingdom. If there is such an ambiguity, it will lead to a lack of talents!"

Seeing more and more voices of opposition, several adults immediately lost their momentum.

"Today we are talking about Mr. Zhang, Mr. Li really don't need to confuse the public! Mr. Zhang's behavior is clear to all of our colleagues. It is absolutely impossible to do such a thing. They are all wronged by traitors! Please learn from your majesty, I waited for the joint letter today to hope that His Majesty can forgive me and return Mr. Zhang's innocence!"

Several adults knelt down one after another, as if they worked together to stand upright for their colleagues.

They didn't notice that the Tai Tuo and Lianhuang looked at each other with special meaning at this moment.

"If Your Majesty still wants to dismiss Mr. Zhang, what will the adults do?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials immediately straightened his back and raised his eyes, "I know that my ability is effective, and I cannot serve the Lotus Kingdom to relieve His Majesty's worries. If I can't return Mr. Zhang's innocence, what is the point of us being an official?"

In this way, resignation was actually used as a threat!
Most of them have important positions. If they resign, they will definitely cause a lot of trouble and dissatisfaction. This is a decision they have discussed for a long time. The Emperor of Gamblers dare not take this risk!

The man on the dragon chair lowered his eyes slightly, as if lost in thought for a while.

Several adults headed by the official minister held their breath, as if they were waiting for the moment of victory.

"You say that Zhang Qicheng is a clean and honest official? I don't know, where did the gold hundred taels found in the secret room of his mansion come from?" Lian Huang opened his mouth quietly. As soon as these words came out, several adults straightened up in shock Come.

When did it happen, why didn't they know?
"Just last night, I ordered people to raid Zhang's house. Indeed, the simple Zhang family's small house looks unremarkable. Even I didn't expect that there is such a big secret room underground, which can be compared with my back garden. Already!"

"……"last night?Copy the house? !His Majesty did such a trick, without any approval from the emperor's list... He clearly wanted to hide it from their eyeliners!Your Majesty's move is too ruthless, it will easily arouse public anger!

However, the adults don't know that the current Emperor Chen is trying to arouse the anger of the public, so that more powers of the Supreme Emperor hidden in the court can't help but surface one after another!Otherwise, how could he catch them all so easily?

"You have worked with him for many years, and you don't know? I am really heartbroken. There are so many people in the court who jointly signed a letter for him."

"..." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials couldn't help but froze, he only felt his throat was dry, and he didn't know what to say at this moment.

"I still remember that 20 years ago, my queen disappeared in Zhang Qicheng's jurisdiction."

At this time, Lian Huang's words were like a thunder in the night, awakening these adults who wanted to threaten them by resigning.They began to realize a serious matter. Perhaps, what His Majesty cares about is not the gold hundred taels, but the former empress... He is about to settle accounts, and Mr. Zhang is just one of them!

"You say, does this count as dereliction of duty? Back then, I could have done him! But because he has contributed to the Lian Kingdom for many years, there is no credit but hard work. I have not enforced the law impartially until today. I don't know how many lovers Any other comments?"

What Emperor Lian meant was that it was the utmost benevolence to let Mr. Zhang stay safe and sound in the court for many years. Even if it was spread, no one would criticize it.

"Chen, minister..." If His Majesty wants to find out the old accounts many years ago, then they...

One must know that back then, they secretly handled a lot of things for the Supreme Emperor. Unexpectedly, today, they came to the door one by one by themselves!At this moment, several adults on the ground buried their heads even lower.

Tai Fu sighed a long time, "Presumably the adults have been worrying about Mr. Zhang's matter for a long time." He walked up to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and snatched the memorial before he could react.

"Since the letter has been signed jointly, His Majesty has to pay attention to it."

"Teacher, you..." Is this to make them have no way out?

However, before it was too late to stop, the Taifu had already personally presented the memorial and handed it into the hands of Emperor Lian.

"I'm really heartbroken. Since several lovers are willing to share weal and woe with Zhang Qicheng, how can I live up to your wishes. I promise that you will retire and return to your hometown in advance, and each of you will be rewarded with a pastoral manor. Over the years, Thank you for your hard work, dear friends."

What? !Unexpectedly, let them resign and go back so easily?
"Your Majesty, there are still a lot of unresolved matters in the hands of your Majesty, so there is no rush to resign."

"How can you not be in a hurry? It is clearly written in the memorial. If Mr. Zhang continues to be wronged, you will have to pack your bags tomorrow. Mr. Shang Shu is really full of enthusiasm, and he still does not forget the affairs in hand at this moment. Don't worry, these things Your Majesty can hand it over to other adults for the time being, and other arrangements will be made after the prime minister recovers." The Tai Tuo looked down at these pale adults, and the whole hall was filled with a dignified atmosphere.

Lianhuang stood up with great regret, "Today, our Lian Kingdom lost a few more talents. It seems that I did not do well enough."

"No! Your Majesty, the ministers are willing to follow His Majesty, please take it back!" Immediately, some adults realized the seriousness of the situation and pleaded for mercy.

"The memorial that has already been presented, is there any reason to take it back? You are not joking, come here, remove their black yarn and send it out of the palace!" At this moment, Emperor Lian's face suddenly changed, and he no longer concealed his intentions. , The cold eyes swept over all the people present, those frank, guilty, and all kinds of expressions.

How many people who are too emperor?He will find out one by one at all costs!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty—"

This remorseful voice resounded above the main hall, but it was too late, the Emperor Lian seemed to have prepared for it, and the Imperial Forest Army had dragged them out one after another, disappearing at the end of the marble.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister did not go to court today, but I don't know if it has something to do with this incident."

In the imperial study room, Taifu and Emperor Lian were analyzing today's events.

"They went to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday. If Situ Zhen joined them today, it would not be so easy to deal with."

"Your Majesty, is it true that the Prime Minister is the Supreme Emperor's man?"

Emperor Lian smiled slightly, "I have read his test papers back then, and it was indeed the top of the list. His talent over the years is also obvious to all. But if he is really a person of the Supreme Emperor, it is impossible for him to do something against the will of the Supreme Emperor. Things. The affairs he did for me before were all handled beautifully. This man is young, but the city is very deep, and I can't deny that I appreciate him very much." If he can be used by Ling'er, that would be the best.
