Sign a Lu Fengxian at the beginning

Chapter 58 Fang Xuanling

Jinluan Palace.

After all the officials took turns to read the incriminating evidence on these small folders, they were a little frightened.

The incriminating evidence in the small booklet is really shocking.

No one expected that General Wu Jin actually conspired with more than 20 court officials, including the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Rites, to plot military remonstrances in the General's Mansion.

This caused quite a stir in Baiguan's heart.

To put it nicely, it’s a military remonstrance; to put it badly, isn’t it a mutiny?

He wanted to hold the emperor hostage and order the princes.

How is this different from rebellion?

Originally, all the officials thought that this was an excuse for the emperor Zhou Chen to deal with the general and his party.

As a result, I didn't expect that the general really wanted to launch a military revolt.

What made all the officials even more frightened was that Queen Wu Ying actually secretly drugged the emperor Zhou Chen and was plotting to kill the emperor Zhou Chen.

Moreover, Queen Wu Ying had been drugging Zhou Chen for several years.

During this period, it has not been discovered.

This is so shocking.

Although the medicine administered by Queen Wu Ying was not fatal, administering the medicine to murder the emperor was already a treason in itself.

If Queen Wu Ying wants to kill the king, then the emperor Zhou Chen's life can be cut off at any time.

All of this can't help but frighten all the officials.

Such evidence of crime is not an exaggeration, let alone confiscation of the family and extermination of the family, or mass execution.

And those officials who are related to the party of Empress Wu Ying's relatives.

At this moment, looking at the evidence in my hands, I can no longer describe it as frightening.

But his face was bloodless.

They had been on tenterhooks yesterday, fearing that the factory guards would come to raid their homes and exterminate their families.

Now looking at the naked and life-threatening thing in my hand, my heart is in my throat.

Since ancient times, it has been a grave sin to seek rebellion.

Implicate Sheng Guang.

Under normal circumstances, anyone who has anything to do with the queen's relatives will be executed.

Seeing that the officials had finished reading the evidence, Zhou Chen raised his eyes and looked down at the officials calmly, "Ministers, please finish reading!"

"Is there anything you want to say?"

Zhou Chen glanced at the officials expressionlessly, showing no anger or annoyance.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo put down the evidence in his hands and stood up with a heartbroken look on his face.

"Report to your Majesty that I am guilty."

"I didn't expect that the Queen and the General would do such a treasonous thing. They are simply betraying the divine grace."

"Especially the general. He was an important minister left by the late emperor to support the country, but he did such a rebellious thing."

"I am truly ashamed of my late emperor's trust and trust."

"Previously, all the veterans and officials were bewitched and deceived by the general to plead for mercy for the queen's rebellion."

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

After Prime Minister Yuan Bo finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with a bang and bowed his head.

"I am guilty."

Immediately afterwards, the other four ministers of the six ministers, as well as all the officials, knelt on the ground to apologize.

At this time, even the most stupid person knows how to kneel down and apologize.

After all, they had broken into the palace before and even went to court together for half a month over the matter of Queen Wu Ying and Tutor Yan Hua.

Now the evidence is conclusive. Queen Wu Ying, General Wu Jin and others are all traitors with evil intentions. If they don't sever their relationship quickly and kneel down to plead guilty.

Then he is really a novice in officialdom.

guilty?

Zhou Chen chuckled in his heart.

If he hadn't wiped out the general's palace with thunderous means and captured more than 20 important officials from the general's relatives and party.

Will these officials say that they are guilty?

The answer is no.

Since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy.

It doesn't matter whether you are rebellious or not.

What matters is the final winner.

Zhou Chen dared to say that if the person standing on the throne this morning was General Wu Jin, then most of these officials would definitely shout nonsense like "The General is wise and powerful".

This is human nature.

Zhou Chen knew this very well.

Now that all the officials saw that the power of the Queen and the General had fallen, they all rushed to sever their relationship and knelt down to apologize.

I have to say that although these official distinctions have not shown it, this principle of being wise and self-protecting is quite profound.

He is worthy of being an old fox who can stand tall in the officialdom.

Use retreat to advance.

The abacus was pretty good.

However, Zhou Chen has no plans to expand his involvement for the time being.

Zhou Chen knew that he could not gain weight by eating in one breath.

Yesterday, more than 20 people were captured in one fell swoop. If the involvement is further expanded.

Then the center of the court will really be paralyzed. If these officials cannot be supplemented in time, it will cause turmoil.

This is not what Zhou Chen wants to see.

Therefore, Zhou Chen could only let them go for a while, and when the positions of the more than 20 captured officials were filled, it would not be too late to move.

Zhou Chen watched the officials kneel down to plead guilty and said without any hesitation, "If you are guilty, remember it first."

"I don't want to hear your apology now, but I hope you can stabilize the court and the situation for me."

"Because of the rebellion of Queen Wu Ying, General Wu Jin and others, there is some turmoil inside and outside the court. You must stay calm for me."

"We cannot allow any turmoil in the court."

Zhou Chen glanced at the officials without any doubt.

Although Zhou Chen has tried his best to control General Wu Jin so that many people are not implicated, there are still many people who need to be dealt with.

This includes those among the Forbidden Army who followed Queen Wu Ying to attack the Yangxin Palace, as well as the generals among the Twelve Guards of Shenwu.

These people will be treated as rebellious.

As a result, many people are bound to be involved.

Therefore, these matters cannot be dealt with in a day or two.

I'm afraid the next few days will be the time when homes and families will be confiscated and people will be killed.

Therefore, Zhou Chen wanted all officials to stabilize the situation inside and outside the court.

Otherwise, the situation in the court cannot be stabilized just by relying on the Minister of War and the Eight Sage Kings.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. We will eliminate the traitors and it is our duty to do so."

"I must help the Imperial Army to eliminate the rebellion and stabilize the court."

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Yuan Bo, all the officials said in unison.

All the officials who were related to Queen Wu Ying's relatives and the party all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the emperor has no intention of touching them, so they can rest assured for the time being.

"Your Majesty, now more than 20 officials, including the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Rites, have rebelled and had their families confiscated and exterminated. Their official positions should be filled in a timely manner."

"Especially important positions such as the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Rites should be appointed immediately to ensure the peace of the court."

At this time, the Minister of War stood up and said.

There are now more than twenty officials missing from the court, most of whom hold important positions.

If it is not filled in time, many major events in North Korea and China will be delayed.

As a loyal minister of the royal family, the Minister of War had to step forward immediately, check for leaks and fill in the gaps, and reminded Zhou Chen of this matter.

After hearing what the Minister of the Ministry of War said, Zhou Chen nodded: "I already have a candidate for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

"Cao Zhengchun."

"Introduction to Fang Xuanling's entry into the court."

Fang Xuanling?

When all the officials heard this unfamiliar name, they frowned.

Who is Fang Xuanling?

They've never heard of it.

Judging from the emperor's intention, is it possible that Fang Xuanling should be appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs?

When Cao Zhengchun heard this, he immediately shouted in a sharp voice, "Send Fang Xuanling to see you."

The sound came out.

Soon, a young scribe walked into the Golden Palace with his head held high.

That's right, the person who came was none other than Fang Xuanling.

This is the outstanding person Zhou Chen signed in yesterday.

I don’t know if Zhou Chen is really lucky, but the great talent Fang Xuanling was signed in yesterday.

"Fang Xuanling bows to the emperor, long live long live, long live long live." After Fang Xuanling walked in, he immediately knelt down and saluted.

Zhou Chen looked at Fang Xuanling; "Get flat!"
