Chapter 446: Determination
Thinking of this, the officials below all muttered and whispered. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The inquiring gaze also wandered between Gao Zhuo and Prince Xuande.
Seeing Gao Zhuo standing up, Emperor Hui Chong raised his eyebrows slightly, and turned his head to look at Prince Xuande.
This glance is meaningful.
Prince Xuande was like a man's back, and his whole body stiffened when he was seen by Emperor Hui Chong.
"What is Gao Aiqing's doing? ”
For Gao Zhuo's recital, Emperor Hui Chong didn't even stop it!
Seeing Emperor Hui Chong's reaction, the officials at the head were a little confused for a while.
Yesterday, Cai Shaoyu was imprisoned, and all the people in Manjing knew about it, and it was impossible for Emperor Hui Chong not to hear the news.
That being the case, all the officials know what Gao Zhuo is standing up for today!
Obviously, Emperor Hui Chong's intention to protect Prince Xuande was very obvious before, why can't he stop it now?
Gao Zhuo didn't have any surprised looks!
Although Emperor Hui Chong said that he protected the prince, he could be regarded as a clear distinction between public and private!
It is not a trivial matter to sell the official mantle, he can't say it without saying it, just let the truth be covered up by dust.
According to him, he did not do it alone, but he also commanded Cai Shaoyu to participate in it, and judging from the evidence, Cai Shaoyu was still the mastermind, and Zhou Liangfu just listened to his orders!
What the?
As soon as Gao Zhuo's voice fell, the following immediately exploded like a frying pot, and all the officials began to discuss in unison.
Cai Shaoyu participated in it, judging from the actions of the three divisions yesterday, everyone had vaguely guessed this result.
But to say that Cai Shaoyu is the mastermind, and let Zhou Liangfu do things according to him, this is a bit ridiculous!
The two of them are both second-class members, but since ancient times, the literature is heavy and the martial arts are light, in front of Zhou Liangfu, Cai Shaoyu is a head shorter, Zhou Liangfu listens to him, unless......
The eyes of all the officials were aimed at Prince Xuande!
Unless there's someone behind it!
And it was not Cai Shaoyu who made Zhou Liangfu obey the order, but Prince Xuande who stood behind Cai Shaoyu.
Prince Xuande's face turned purple when he was seen by the officials, and they all clenched it tightly, his eyes were bursting with fire and glaring at Gao Zhuo, eager to rip the flesh off his body!
This old thief is still a thief!
Gao Zhuo stood steadily in the center of the main hall, let the ministers look at him, and the prince looked at him angrily, he didn't move, and his eyes were only half-raised to look at Emperor Hui Chong, waiting for his reaction.
"Cai Shaoyu?"
Emperor Hui Chong touched his beard and asked in a loud voice.
"I remember that yesterday Qingguo Gong cried in front of the palace gate, saying that the three divisions didn't even have an edict, so Cai Shaoyu was escorted directly into the three divisions?"
"That's what happened!"
Hearing Emperor Hui Chong's question, one of the princelings immediately stood up with a resentful expression.
"The Qingguo Mansion is a century-old family, and Lord Cai is a second-class member of the court, and the third division will directly arrest people without asking, I don't know what his intentions are?
The most important thing for the two sides is the momentum!
Can't be completely suppressed by Gao Zhuo from the beginning!
Speaking of Master Dong, the next official remembered that Cai Shaoyu was also arrested by the Third Division a few years ago, and was tortured, which was very embarrassing.
The waiter of the Criminal Department was shocked into a cold sweat, hurriedly stood up, and defended: "Qingguo Gong misunderstood! Yesterday, I invited Lord Cai to the Third Division, but I just wanted to ask some questions, he ate well and lived well, and the Third Division did not dare to lynch him!"
Emperor Hui Chong nodded slightly, and no longer mentioned this matter, but asked Gao Zhuo: "Since Zhou Liangfu confessed Cai Shaoyu, what evidence has he not had?"
Hearing this, the princelings retreated in disagreement.
The squire of the criminal department finally put his mind at ease.
Gao Zhuo replied: "Enlighten the Holy Lord, naturally there is! And there is still a lot of evidence!"
After saying that, Gao Zhuo took out an account book from his sleeve, handed it to Zhou Yu'an, and handed it to Emperor Hui Chong to take a closer look.
The account book was only a few thin pages, but Emperor Hui Chong turned it for a long time.
There was a dead silence in the hall!
The officials were silent, not knowing what was written in the ledger!
But looking at Emperor Hui Chong's gloomy face and poor complexion, he knew that it was definitely not a good thing.
Prince Xuande was also terrified.
This ledger ...... What the hell?
How could he never know this?
Could it be that Zhou Liangfu deliberately left a hand?
Thinking of this, Prince Xuande's face was difficult to look at, and he couldn't care about resenting Gao Zhuo anymore, so he kept glaring at the princelings under him, signaling them to hurry up and find a way.
"This Cai Shaoyu!"
After a long time, Emperor Hui Chong finally put down the account book in his hand with a "bang".
The Son of Heaven was furious, and the corpse was thousands of miles away.
Prince Xuande trembled with fright at this sound, and knelt down with the officials below.
"Your Majesty is angry!"
"I don't know that the dignified officials have actually done such a thing in the dark with a nest of snakes and rats! Buying and selling official positions and arranging officials to serve in districts at will! Being a good official, descending when they say they are down, and rising when they say they are promoted! Who gave you such courage...... How is such an official different from a moth? How can such selfishness make me calm my anger? How can I trust things in the hands of such people?"
When he said this, Emperor Hui Chong glared angrily at Prince Xuande!
He knew everything in his heart about the case of selling his official beard.
Originally, I thought it was just buying and selling official positions, but after reading this account book, Emperor Hui Chong reacted that Prince Xuande's hand was stretched out so long!
Anyone who is different from the party will find an excuse to either demote or remove. The governors of various places were all controlled by him through the arrangements of the officials, but he was almost not elevated!
This is intolerable for an emperor!
Even if it was his son who did it!
Emperor Hui Chong looked at Prince Xuande in disappointment!
This son is not only incompetent, but also too anxious!
It seems that what Yuan Gong said is good! This kid still has to let him suffer a little!
Like the dead prince!
Those who followed him all the way over knew the hardships, and they were more generous and secure, unlike today's Prince Xuande......
Thinking of this, Emperor Hui Chong closed his eyes, and he already had a decision in his heart.
Emperor Hui Chong was angry, and all the officials under the suppression of the thunderous fury were silent.
Prince Xuande was also so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything else.
According to Zhou Liangfu's own claim, he had the habit of burning them into official ledgers since he became an official! The things recorded in the account books presented to you are all arranged according to the date, and every thing recorded is covered with tangible evidence...... Yesterday, according to Zhou Liangfu's guidance, the people of the Third Division went to investigate and found that what he said was all true, and now the person who presented the evidence of tribute is outside the palace, I wonder if Your Majesty wants to meet him?"
