Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

"Legend to Zhang Gui, the governor of the left."

Apocalypse therefore ordered.

"yes!"

Not long after, Zhang Gui came to Xiyuan.

Tian Qi also gave Liang Menghuan's memorial directly to Zhang Gui: "You can read it yourself."

Zhang Gui also looked at it.

Seeing this, Zhang Gui's eyes widened, and he thought, "This Liu Cheng is disobedient!"

"You don't have to be too scared."

Tian Qi comforted Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui was a little surprised.

I'm not afraid.

It's not just the impeachment of the officials.

If it's really urgent, it's a big deal to rebel, pull up a team, find a piece of land, maybe it can become bigger and stronger.

At this time, Tianqi said in a flat tone: "On the surface, they are impeaching you, but they are actually targeting me. A memorandum has involved you, Wei Zhongxian, and Mr. Han Ge, but they didn't say it clearly. These things are not in line with their wishes!"

Tian Qi seemed worried that Zhang Gui didn't understand, so he said a few more words.

Zhang Gui nodded: "Your Majesty said so."

Tian Qi suddenly looked at Zhang Gui and asked, "Tell me truthfully, what happened to Liu Cheng being beaten?"

Zhang Gui replied: "He himself asked the minister to beat him, really! The minister dare not bully the emperor!"

Tian Qi looked disbelieving, and said again: "Whether he asked for it or not, since Han Gui participated, I can force Mr. Han Ge to admit that his son Han Gui instigated it and is the main culprit. You are just ignorant."

Speaking of this, Tian Qi's expression became serious: "However, you have to tell me that the fat jackets given to the frontier soldiers are all made of yellow cotton, is it true?!"

Zhang Gui replied: "No!"

Tian Qi asked again: "Really?"

Zhang Gui replied: "If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can send a trustworthy minister to investigate, so that you can also return your innocence."

"It's best if you tell the truth, otherwise, I won't be able to excuse you when the time comes."

Apocalypse said.

Zhang Gui replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty."

Tian Qi nodded, and said: "I'll ask you again, is it true? If so, you don't have to worry about telling me, what will happen to you, it's just that I will deal with this matter in another way, and no longer send people to investigate. Just ask Han Yu to make a draft, saying that Liang Menghuan is accusing him of slander and should be severely punished, and then ask Wei Zhongxian to criticize him and send him to Zhao Prison. But if not, I will send someone to investigate and return your innocence."

"no."

"I dare to use Eunuch Wei's head as a guarantee!"

Zhang Gui replied.

Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment: "Why is it the head of our family? Uncle Guo, I haven't seen you like this!"

Tianqi asked for Wei Zhongxian: "Why is Wei Zhongxian's head?"

Zhang Gui replied: "Because His Majesty will kill him more to appease all officials than killing ministers."

"Yes, the foreign ministers all hate him for betraying Wang An."

Tian Qi nodded and said: "Then it's settled, if you lie, I will chop off Wei Zhongxian's head!"

Wei Zhongxian had the urge to cry.

Tian Qi said to Wei Zhongxian again at this time: "Don't feel wronged, Zhang Gui is right, if he lied about this matter, you can't escape, this business was originally introduced to him by you."

"Yes! The servant understands."

Wei Zhongxian replied.

"In the Manchu court, it is fair and upright. It should be my teacher, Mr. Sun, who drafted an order to let Sun Chengzong be an imperial envoy to investigate the case of the frontier army's fat jacket being shoddy."

Tian Qi gave an order, and then asked Zhang Gui and Wei Zhongxian: "Do you have any suitable candidates, and you can also recommend them."

"Howard! This man is the most upright."

Wei Zhongxian replied.

Tian Qi glared at Wei Zhongxian: "I'm a bully, if he is upright, can he be driven by you?"

Wei Zhongxian found that Tian Qi's heart was like a mirror, so he had to say: "This servant made a slip of the tongue, but he is indeed obedient."

"Then you can't send him. He is your man. If you send him, the officials will not be convinced."

Tian Qi said again: "I thought of a person, Xu Guangqi, this person is a lone minister, does not form a party, does not participate in the literary society, only knows to study practical knowledge, just like me, he should not favor anyone."

"Yes, the emperor sees everything clearly."

Wei Zhongxian replied.

"Your Majesty, I recommend Yang Lian."

Zhang Gui suddenly suggested at this time.

"this……"

Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhang Gui in surprise, and said in his heart: "Is this uncle of the country stupid? Who doesn't know that Yang Lian is the leader of the speech officer, let him be an imperial envoy, and follow up to investigate this matter. It's impossible to strip off the underpants, besides, there have long been rumors that this guy is going to attack our family!"

After thinking about it, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this servant thinks that Yang Lian is a bad person. This person is a bold and reckless person who may make the situation worse."

Tian Qi looked at Zhang Gui and asked, "Do you really want to recommend him?"

"Yes, this is not enough to prove the innocence of the courtiers and convince the courtiers. After all, Yang Lian's prestige among scholars is not inferior to Ye Fuqing."

Zhang Gui replied.

Tian Qi nodded: "It seems that you are confident that you didn't adulterate the fat jacket made for the frontier army?"

"Your Majesty, I really don't have any!"

Zhang Gui replied.

"I agree!"

Tian Qi said, and looked at Wei Zhongxian: "Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi, and Yang Lian, just these three people, let the cabinet draw up an order. These three people are imperial envoys to investigate the case of the frontier army's fat jacket fraud!"

"yes!"

After Wei Zhongxian returned, he went to Han Yu's cabinet to check the room.

Not long after, this imperial decree was passed on to Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi, and Yang Lian.

Baiguan soon also knew this will.

"Sun Zhisheng, needless to say, has always been honest and upright;"

"Xu Zixian is also a Qingliu in the Imperial Academy. It doesn't matter if he doesn't have party or friends;"

"Yang Dahong, the most famous person in our department as a Taoist official, the Minister of Gu Ming who was entrusted by the late emperor;"

"It is fair for His Majesty to appoint these three persons to investigate the case."

All the officials were convinced by Tianqi's arrangement, and even Yao Zongwen said this to Liang Menghuan at this time.

Liang Menghuan also nodded: "It can be seen that His Majesty really cares about the situation at the frontier and really wants to find out about this matter. Uncle Zhang Guo made a mistake in this, it is indeed a big taboo!"

On this day, Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi, and Yang Lian first went to Juyongguan to investigate the situation of Zhang Gui's frontier army's fat jacket.

Since Zhang Gui is impeached, he also needs to bring the people who made these cotton clothes for him with him.

Liang Menghuan belongs to the impeacher, and he also needs to take Yao Zongwen who provided the news with him.

When a group of people came to Juyongguan, Yao Zongwen first chatted with Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi, and Yang Lian: "This matter involves the royal relatives, and the three imperial envoys must be able to handle it for the sake of justice. He was convicted of disobedience to the powerful."

"Of course, as the teacher of the Son of Heaven, how dare I live up to the entrustment of the emperor. If the emperor really manufactures black-hearted cotton and sells it to the frontier army for profit, I will definitely ask your majesty to deal with it strictly!"

Sun Chengzong said.

Yang Lian also said: "That's right, as a minister who was left by the late emperor, how can I tolerate some of the emperor's relatives messing around!"

Xu Guangqi followed up and said: "Naturally, he will not favor anyone or be afraid of anyone!"

In fact, the three of them also somewhat subjectively believed that Zhang Gui, who is a relative of the emperor, would cut corners and shoddy when making padded clothes for the frontier army in order to make more profits. It is easy to covet some small profits and do things that embarrass the court.

And Yao Zongwen felt more relieved after hearing this, and said with a smile: "There are three loyal ministers like imperial envoys, who rely on their power and nobles, and they will definitely not get away with it."

Sun Chengzong, Yang Lian, and Xu Guangqi didn't say anything, but entered Juyongguan together.

As a result, as soon as they arrived at Juyongguan, Sun Chengzong, Yang Lian, and Xu Guangqi saw that the fat jackets worn by the frontier officers and soldiers here were indeed thin and old.

Sun Chengzong also walked up to a soldier, opened the opening of the fat jacket he was wearing, looked at it, and said angrily: "It really is yellow cotton! It is still the worst yellow cotton!"

Then Sun Chuanting pulled out the cotton wool and pinched it again: "It's a cotton wool! This cotton coat doesn't keep warm at all."

Yang Lian then asked the soldier, "Is it issued this year?"

The soldier replied, "Yes!"

Xu Guangqi looked at the other soldiers: "Sure enough, they are black-hearted! The fat jackets worn by these officers and soldiers look terrible, so how can the soldiers defend the enemy!"

At this time, Yang Lian looked at Zhang Gui: "Uncle Guo, what do you have to say now?"

Zhang Gui smiled lightly.

At this moment, Han Gui spoke first, "The fat jacket here is not from us!"

Hearing what he said, Sun Chengzong took the initiative to ask the soldier: "Who supplied your fat jackets this year?"

The soldier shook his head and said he didn't know.

At this time, Chen Hongfan, the commander in chief, rushed over: "I don't know that the three imperial envoys and all the superiors are here. Unfortunately, the last general has gone on a patrol for the past few days, so he rushed back at this time. It's a long way to welcome him!"

"Maybe!"

Sun Chengzong replied first, and asked, "Who supplied the fat jackets here?"

Yang Lian asked, "Is it a gift from Uncle Guo?"

Xu Guangqi reminded: "You must not hide it, otherwise, you will not be able to bear the consequences."

Chen Hongfan had always been timid, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "The general dare not hide it, this year's fat jacket was not supplied by Uncle Guo, but by a man named Wei Jianren, who said he was a disciple of Elder Liu Ge."
