Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 906 The crime is too light

  The officials above the fifth rank in the capital heard the vibration of the bell, so they had to rush to the imperial palace immediately, so the civil and military officials filed in from Yonganmen and slowly walked to the Weiyang Palace.

At this time, the sky was almost bright, the gate of Weiyang Palace was wide open, and the officials at the level of Jiuqing in the middle looked left and right. Except for the house under the door, the other four chief ministers and the imperial censor were strictly guarded. When they were all absent, these ministers noticed something was wrong and frowned.

   Among them, Kong Yu, the Minister of Rites, who was nearly sixty years old, walked to the only house of the Zaifu, lowered his head and asked, "Prime Minister, why don't you see the ministers and Yan Sikong?"

Fang Fang Wei is a new Zaisuke who has entered the Shangshu Platform to worship the chancellor. He is not familiar with the other Zaisukes, so for the sake of safety, Shen Kuan did not take him. "I don't know, but I heard that a few of them came into the palace together last night. This morning, His Majesty shook the bell. I think it was because they said something important to His Majesty that caused the bell to vibrate."

  Kong Shangshu lowered his head slightly and said, "So, let's talk about it when we enter the Weiyang Palace."

   As soon as he finished his words, Xiao Zheng, dressed in bright red clothes, was already standing at the entrance of the Weiyang Palace hall.

All the civil and military officials bowed their bodies and walked into the main hall of Weiyang Palace. They still stood in the position where they used to stand, so four positions were left vacated at the front of the column of civil servants on the left, leaving only the house Wei standing alone. front.

   The servant in the door also frowned deeply, turned his head to look at the Grand Governor Ji Lin who was standing on the right, although he didn't know what happened, he had already faintly noticed something was wrong.

  After the hundreds of officials entered the dynasty, Emperor Yuan Zhao also walked into the Weiyang Palace surrounded by eunuchs. Following Xiao Zheng’s high-pitched singing, the civil and military officials knelt on the ground one after another. Long live the mountain.

   Emperor Yuanzhao, as if nothing had happened, raised his hand slightly and said indifferently: "Zhuqing, calm down."

At this time, the officials in the main hall of Weiyang Palace were all officials above the fifth rank, many of whom were former disciples of Shen Kuanyan, Shouzhuo and others. They probably knew what happened last night, but no one took the lead, for the sake of their own family. The life of the net worth, these ministers who have worked so hard to get to the fifth rank or above, will not open their mouths easily.

  The inner eunuch, Xiao Zheng, took a step forward and said loudly: "I will play early, and I will stop going to court if I have nothing to do—"

   This sentence is normal on weekdays. If there is no major event during the big court meeting, it will just be a passing game, but today is different...

   Today is the Weiyang Palace who took the initiative to vibrate the bell, and the assembled ministers, how could there be nothing wrong!

  The servant in the house under the door sank slightly, looked left and right, and he knew in his heart that someone would definitely come out to play.

   Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Zheng finished his words, Ji Lin, the commander-in-chief who stood at the top of the military officer, took a deep breath, took a step forward, and bowed deeply to the emperor.

   "Your Majesty, I have the original repertoire."

   Emperor Yuanzhao also let out a sigh of relief and said solemnly, "What's the matter with the Governor?"

  This was originally a script that was arranged in advance, but it is still unknown whether these officials will buy it or not. After all, he is only fourteen years old, and he is somewhat uneasy at this moment.

   Ji Lin hesitated for a moment, his voice booming.

   "Your Majesty, the ministers and ministers of the Shangshutai left the servants to shoot Shen Kuan, the right servants to shoot Sun Cunxi, the servants of the family were Han Jin, the middle-book commander Xu Gu, the imperial censors were strict and clumsy, greedy and perverted the law, accepted bribes, practiced favoritism, and concluded..."

Originally, he wanted to say that he had formed a party for personal gain, but there are many disciples and former officials of Zaifu, and they can be regarded as their henchmen. At this time, only the "first evil" can be investigated, and these "parties" cannot be involved, otherwise, no one will be able to be good. .

   After a pause, the Grand Governor continued: "The minister has verified the sins of these people, and wrote them all down in the memorial. The specific evidence has also been placed outside the hall and can be brought in at any time."

   "Your Majesty, these people are auxiliary ministers and prime ministers. They don't want to serve the country, but they are greedy and pervert the law and seek personal gain!"

   Ji Lin knelt on the ground and said solemnly, "I ask Your Majesty to take charge of the government, abolish the auxiliary ministers, and dismiss these prime ministers for questioning!"

   As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar!

   You must know that yesterday, these few were still Zaisuke who ruled the world. In just one day, they were charged with this "inconspicuous" crime!

   More importantly, the one who participated in their performance was one of the auxiliary ministers, the Grand Governor Ji Lin of the Grand Governor's Mansion!

   This shows that, no matter whether this is the emperor's intention or not, the military has already supported the abolition of the prime minister!

   Ji Lin's voice just fell, and before the emperor could speak, the only surviving prime minister in the office of ministers, Fang Wei, took a step forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this minister has something to say."

   Emperor Yuanzhao was a little nervous in his heart. He looked at the house, and said slowly: "What does the house minister have to say, wait a moment, I have to ask the governor for details."

  The room attendant shook his head slightly and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Governor is a military officer and should not interfere in civil affairs, but the Governor is also an assistant minister. There is no problem with him participating in the performance, so the minister will not say more."

Fang Xiang took a deep breath and continued: "If several prime ministers and Yan Sikong really violated the national law, we will leave it to the Dali Temple to deal with it, but now that several prime ministers and Yan Sikong are not here, it is too much. Somewhat out of order."

  The house knelt on the ground slightly, and said respectfully, "I ask Your Majesty to call a few Zaisukes into the hall and confront them on the spot."

   Emperor Yuan Zhao frowned.

   "Let's take a look at the evidence of the crime presented by the Governor. If the evidence is true, in my opinion, there is no need to confront him in court. Just send it to the Dali Temple for investigation."

  The house frowned slightly, but didn't say much.

This matter is actually good for him. He is a new prime minister who has not been in the Shangshutai for a long time. If he follows the previous rules, he will have to stay at the Shangshutai for ten or twenty years before he has the chance to sit first. However, if the four remaining prime ministers in the Shangshutai are gone, he will naturally become the prime minister of the first assistant, and the prime ministers will call him senior.

   However, the civil servants will suffer a huge blow in this way, and for a while, the house micro does not know what to do.

   At this time, Xue Zhao, a member of the Ministry of Rites, stood up, held the chao wat in his hand, and bowed his head deeply to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, if I impeach an official in the Great Jin Dynasty, if it is a high-ranking official in the capital, it should be handed over to the three judicial divisions to investigate and deal with it together. Besides, several of the people who participated in the performance are all of my Grand Jin's Zaifu, and two of them are auxiliary ministers left by the previous emperor. Not to mention whether the two auxiliary ministers have corrupted bribes and perverted the law, if they are, they will not be directly dismissed from office."

  Theoretically speaking, before the Son of Heaven was not in power, several auxiliary ministers acted on behalf of the king, and they were not guilty.

  If you want to convict them, you must first remove their positions as assistant ministers.

   More importantly, the crime of embezzlement is not enough to take away the status of the minister, because the crime is too light.

   At the beginning of the year, when Li Xin wrote a letter to participate in the performance of several Zaifu, he did not use corruption, but "seized power and banned the army and plotted evil".

  Xue Zhao bowed his head respectfully.

   "I ask Your Majesty to summon a few Zaifu to the palace and make it clear in front of the civil and military officials."

   This Xue Zhao, who was born in the Ministry of Rites, was both a student of Shen Kuan and a former official of Shen Kuan.

   Emperor Yuanzhao sat on the dragon chair, his face a little unsightly.

   I watched the LOL game yesterday...I fell asleep watching it...I try to make up for it today.
