Zhu Houzhao was completely unaware of how condemning the ministers' gazes were, and he didn't think that the star phenomenon had anything to do with him. However, Mo Daowei's last sentence of "the world is in chaos" aroused his interest.
"It's great that the world is in chaos. I can finally lead the army and conquer in person" Zhu Houzhao said cheerfully, but before he could finish speaking, the Golden Palace was in chaos.
"Your Majesty, be careful what you say!"
"It's so stupid!"
"My late emperor¡ª¡ª"
¡°¡¡¡¡¡±
There was an explosion in the Golden Palace, and the ministers were extremely angry. They came out one after another to severely condemn Zhu Houzhao's irresponsible remarks.
Zhu Houzhao did not expect that his casual words would lead to such a fierce rebuke from the minister, and his face suddenly became ugly.
Cabinet scholar Jiao Fang and Minister of War Liu Yu frowned. They found that today's plan was interrupted by Zhu Houzhao and turned into chaos. The party members seemed to have forgotten what they were doing today. Instead of targeting Qin Kan, they all Go to your majesty.
A bunch of nerds who accept death! Is it of any use against His Majesty? Do you have the guts to impeach His Majesty to abdicate? It's not just a matter of going back and forth.
Eighty-year-old Jiao Fang suddenly bent down, covered her mouth with her fist, and coughed loudly. Her face turned red from the coughing, and she couldn't even speak. While coughing, she apologized to Zhu Houzhao and his colleagues in the palace.
The scolding in the palace stopped as Jiao Fang coughed. Only then did Liu Jin's party members come to their senses. They had mistaken the wrong person. It seems that the person they have to deal with today is not His Majesty
There was silence in the hall, and Jiao Fang's cough gradually stopped.
The newly appointed Minister of Civil Affairs, Zhang Cai, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood what Mo Jianzheng said. What he wanted to say was not that the world was in chaos, but that there was a traitor in the country, which caused a celestial phenomenon to warn."
"Treacherous traitor? Who is the traitor?" Zhu Houzhao frowned.
Zhang Cai smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, there is only one prediction of celestial phenomena, but it cannot be predicted in such detail."
Zhu Houzhao nodded: "Okay, let the factory guard find out who is the traitor. Find out and let me see if he is the traitor."
The topic of celestial warnings seems to have stopped here. Jiao Fang coughed for a long time and recovered. She smoothed her white beard, turned around and glanced at the ministers, and said majestically: "All the ministers will continue to do their work."
As soon as he finished speaking, a deep voice came from the Chaoban: "My lord, the Ministry of Rites has something to say about the matter."
Zhu Houzhao said lazily: "Come here."
A middle-aged man about forty years old stood up from the court, bowed his head and said: "Recently, rumors have been circulating in the capital city. It is said that Zhonghua Chang, who became an official in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, was killed by a thief half a month ago. Killed in his hometown in Henan, more than 20 members of his family, including the elderly, women and children, were all killed by the thief's knife. The thief's cruel methods are truly outrageous!"
Zhu Houzhao said in surprise: "The whole family was wiped out? Is it true or false?"
"I sent a messenger to inquire with the local government. This matter is absolutely true."
"Who did it?"
Zheng Di lowered his head, his expression unreadable, and his tone was calm but full of anger: "There are rumors in the capital city that this matter was done by Qin Kan, the commander of Shanyin Hou Jinyi Guards."
The whole hall was silent.
Zhu Houzhao was really surprised. He was stunned for a long time and suddenly laughed: "It's nonsense! There are many fools in the world who are just saying what they say. How could Qin Kan do this? I don't believe it! Let the factory guards and Shuntian Prefecture investigate carefully to see who is spreading the rumors. , find out and chop off his head!"
Zheng Di said calmly: "Does your Majesty know who Hua Chang is?"
"Isn't it true that the Ministry of Household Affairs in the Hongzhi year was in trouble? Moreover, he became an official in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi. Qin Kan can't compete with him. How could he destroy his whole family?"
"Hua Chang is indeed a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs in the Hongzhi year, but he still has another identity" Zheng Di looked at Zhu Houzhao and said word by word: "The scientific examination fraud case in the 13th year of Hongzhi was caused by Hua Chang The first one to expose his involvement in the impeachmentI heard that Your Majesty has allowed Shanyin Marquis Qin Kan to retry the case. Is it true?"
Zhu Houzhao's face turned red, and his voice rose unconsciously: "I allowed Qin Kan to retry the case. What does it have to do with the murder of Hua Chang's family? Zheng Di, what exactly do you want to say?"
"The late emperor and the cabinet had already concluded the case of the scientific examination fraud. The late emperor personally issued an order, ordering his son Tang Yin from Suzhou and his son Xu Jing from Jiangyin not to take part in the scientific examination again. The imperial court would never recruit him. It was obviously an ironclad case, but your majesty did not If you have to reverse the case and retry it, wouldn't your Majesty think about it, since it was already considered a solid case at the beginning, how could the late emperor have concluded the case if Hua Chang had no evidence? How could Hua Chang be the first to take the lead in impeachment? Now His Majesty has reversed the case with just one sentence. In a retrial, someone, for the sake of his friend's fame and future, greatly increases the chance of overturning the case.In addition, it is reasonable to kill Hua Chang¡¯s family and destroy the evidence against Tang Yin and Xu Jing at the same time"
"Youyou fart!" Zhu Houzhao stood up and said with a livid face: "Zheng Di, you mean, I am looking for trouble? And Qin Kan killed his whole family just for Tang Yin's mere fame?"
Zheng Di said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, these are rumors among the people in the market. I am an official, and I have the responsibility to report the rumors."
"You" Zhu Houzhao was furious. Just as he was about to drink him away, he glanced around and found that the courtiers looked cold and there was a faint murderous intent in the hall. Zhu Houzhao was stunned and immediately realized that things were not simple.
After being the emperor for more than two years, Zhu Houzhao has seen a lot of court disputes in the Golden Palace. Zhu Houzhao has gradually gained political consciousness. He knows that if a seemingly insignificant matter can be raised in the Golden Palace, things will never be as serious as before. Although it seems so small on the surface, it will never end so simply. It will inevitably lead to bigger events and more murderous intentions in the future.
Today¡¯s court meeting is a conspiracy against Qin Kan!
Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao suddenly calmed down, and even had the mood to smile at Zheng Di: "I already know what Zheng Qing told me. Next, how should I handle this matter? Can you please teach me? "
Zheng Di said calmly: "Since it is an empty hole, how can we avoid the wind? What the people say is not necessarily a rumor. I believe that whether it is true or false, Shanyin Hou Qin Kan has at least destroyed Hua Chang." Suspicion abounds. I request Your Majesty to suspend the post of commander of the Qin Kan Jinyi Guards and to clear himself up behind closed doors to avoid suspicion. This matter should be thoroughly investigated by the East and West Second Factory and the local government. When the truth is revealed to the world, the suspicion of Shanyin Marquis will naturally be cleared. wash¡¡"
These words made Qin Kan's allies no longer able to remain silent. If Qin Marquis was suspended from his command position, the Marquis would no longer have any power in his hands. The so-called truth discovered at that time would not be left to Liu Jin's party members to say whatever they wanted. How can I put it this way, wouldn¡¯t the Marquis become a piece of fish on Liu Jin¡¯s chopping board and be slaughtered by him?
Yan Songying, the left minister of the Ministry of War, raised his eyebrows and took him out of the court to argue. Unexpectedly, Li Dongyang, the cabinet scholar, also imitated Jiao Fang and coughed loudly in the palace. While coughing, he apologized to Zhu Houzhao and the courtiers.
Yan Song glanced at Li Dongyang in surprise, but Li Dongyang neither glanced at him nor gave him any hint. Yan Song's expression changed several times, but he finally pursed his lips and took back the steps he was about to take.
