Chapter 013: Weng Son-in-law Fights and Finally Blames Himself
The next day, the Changming Palace.
Zhang Wei came to the court for the first time, and looked at the civil and military officials standing, a little sparse.
After all, the day before the lock took a lot of people.
People who don't take the emperor seriously on weekdays don't dare to speak at the moment, and stand respectfully.
And the ministers all discovered one thing, General Fukangan, who appeared yesterday, actually stood in the first place among the generals.
"Your Majesty has a will, something to do!" the little eunuch with a loud voice shouted loudly.
"Youben!" a young man in a red official robe stepped forward.
"Quasi-play!"
"Your Majesty, yesterday the rebels rebels rebelled, and your Majesty was subdued. Afterwards, His Majesty was merciful and ordered the rebels to rebuild the houses for the people, but ......"
"What?" Seeing the other party pause, Zhang Wei's face was not angry and arrogant: "They don't want to?"
"Back to Your Majesty, they are willing, and the people also sing praises to Your Majesty, the question is ...... Although the house is already under construction, the cost of materials to build the house is owed!"
Zhang Wei's eyelids jumped, it's money again!
Dead fat man Zhang Tai, you are really evil!
"Yesterday's traitors robbed them of silver and gold. In addition, part of the gold and silver of Zhang Luo and Zhang Chengqian's mansions are subsidized on this, which should be enough!"
"This ...... Your Majesty!"
Zhang Wei nodded: "Fukangan, you take someone on a trip, you should understand what I mean." ”
"The minister understands!"
"Go now!"
"Yes!"
The emperor's resoluteness, which had never happened before, made the ministers stunned.
It seems that he is not in a hurry at this time, and he actually asked people to raid his house as soon as he went to the court...... It doesn't seem to be a house raid.
Fukangan left, making the ministers feel relieved.
For this fierce man who chained dozens of ministers with chains yesterday, they still felt depressed.
"What else?"
"Your Majesty's traitors are now imprisoned in the prison, among which Wang Wenwei, Tan Zong, Tian Wenming, etc. all feel shameless to face the first emperor and His Majesty, and are bent on death. In addition, Pang Hao, Luo Song and others asked for pen and paper, and they were writing their crimes in detail. Only the wind was uneven, and Long Dong and Tian Wenliang were silent. The right minister stood up and said: "Yesterday, Your Majesty said that you will make a decision this morning, and please ask Your Majesty to make a holy judgment!"
"Tian Wenliang and Tian Wenming are two brothers, why aren't they of the same heart?"
Zhang Wei was a little surprised, it stands to reason that they were in the same camp and accidentally separated the eggs.
At this time, do you want to survive this one?
"I don't know. ”
"What do you think of it?"
"The old minister thinks that it is better to wait for everyone to write down their own crimes, and then deal with them when the time comes!"
"Lord Right Minister, how can this be?" A middle-aged man stood up, wearing the same purple robe as the Right Minister, but the embroidery on his chest was completely different: "Is it a common crime of rebellion? How can they write it clearly, but what if they don't write it? Your Majesty, the minister suggested that these beasts without a king and father should be killed together." What if there is no them in this world, is it possible that without them, my Tianxiang Kingdom will not be able to live?"
Many people were stunned, as if they didn't expect this person to stand up.
Because this person is Song Yuan, the son-in-law of the right minister.
Weng son-in-law war?
The courtiers watched with great interest, and Zhang Wei also watched without saying a word.
"Of course, it's important to write clearly, there's a lot going on. Now that they are separated, there may be discrepancies in what they write, and they may be able to reveal some secrets, such as whether any of them are other people's people, but they are only undercover on King Cheng's side. In addition, King Cheng's money for the traitors over the years is not a star, where does this come from, shouldn't it be clear?"
"Does Lord Right Xiang mean to kill again after figuring it out, or do you mean to be punished lightly if you figure it out?" The middle-aged man didn't care that this was his father-in-law, but forced it.
"Your Majesty's judgment on this matter has its own. ”
Song Yuan snorted and bowed deeply to Zhang Wei: "Your Majesty, the most heinous crime has been killing the monarch and rebelling since ancient times, and these two crimes should be punished by the nine clans, and they have been the same since ancient times." His Majesty is benevolent and has the heart to forgive his family, but he has to worry that some people will follow suit, anyway, the family will not die, and the heirs will still be extended. But once the rebellion succeeds, he is the emperor. Wouldn't that be a great chaos in the world?"
"So, rebels and thieves, please punish them!"
The voice was generous and powerful, and although it was not impassioned, it made many people nod.
"What Song Qing said is not wrong, since ancient times, it has been the case with any imperial empire. But this matter makes sense, and Song Qing doesn't have to worry. ”
"Your Majesty......" Song Yuan knelt down.
Zhang Wei said with a smile: "If Song Qing saw me make a move yesterday, he should know that I am not a woman's benevolent person." How this matter will be decided, wait for them to finish writing the charges and then discuss it. ”
Song Yuan was stunned for a moment, thinking of the emperor's divine power yesterday, and hurriedly bowed down and entered the ranks.
"Is there anything else?" Zhang Wei asked, seeing that everyone didn't speak, he couldn't help but smile: "It seems that our Tianxiang Kingdom is peaceful in the world, since this is the case, I will talk about yesterday's eight hundred miles of urgency!"
Right Xiang and Qin Wannian's eyelids jumped: The big drama is coming!
"Tang Xiang, tell me about it!"
Tang Xiang is the right Xiang, whose full name is Tang Busong, which is a very strange name.
It also seems that he and his son-in-law Song Yuan are not looking at each other.
"The minister obeys the order!" Tang Xiang walked out and said slowly: "Yesterday, Your Majesty received an eight-hundred-mile expedited, it is said that it is a drought in Shudi, and there is no harvest, and disaster relief is needed." Surveyors have been dispatched and will return by noon today at the latest. ”
After speaking, Tang Busong stood without saying a word.
"The drought is a big deal, then open a warehouse for disaster relief, the household department allocates funds, Lord Qin ......" Song Yuan stood up again.
Qin Wannian trembled all night, tossing and turning, and this morning he was still staring at the big black circles under his eyes.
Now when he heard this, he knelt down again.
Song Yuan was surprised, and all the courtiers seemed surprised.
"Lord Qin, what are you ......" Song Yuan couldn't understand it, and couldn't help but glance at Old Taishan.
It's a pity that Tang Busong didn't look at this son-in-law.
"One year after I succeeded to the throne, there was a rebellion between King Cheng and King Luo, and there was a drought in Shudi, which is a warning from heaven that I must have done something bad. Zhang Wei stood up: "Disaster relief, I don't know, but all the ministers, I'm afraid that my Tianxiang treasury will run out of money, what kind of disaster relief will I take!"
The treasury, empty?
A group of people thought they had misheard.
Everything can be empty, how can the treasury be empty?
"Lord Qin, how is this possible?"
"Lord Qin, don't kneel, get up and talk, are you corrupt?"
Qin Wannian lowered his head, still silent.
Zhang Wei waved his hand, and the ministers quieted down: "Lord Qin is at fault in this matter, and the crime is unforgivable. ”
"When the minister dies, the minister is willing to give all his family wealth. "Qin Wannian thought about it all night and wanted to save his life, which was very important.
As for running away, run away!
Maybe there are masters under the emperor in the dark.
"Qin Wannian was old and faint, and he went to the post of secretary of the household department on the same day and deprived the family property...... Let's leave you a hundred taels of silver for retirement, and go home. ”
"Your Majesty Xie!" Qin Wannian breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and took off his official uniform and boots on top of the main hall, wore a middle coat, and kowtowed three times to Zhang Wei barefoot before turning around and leaving slowly.
"I've already shown it to Tang Xiang, send it out. ”
