In the officialdom, there have always been few people who send charcoal in the snow, and there are many people who fall into the well, but I am afraid that Yang Xian will not be able to turn over this time. Ma Xiuying shook her head and warned Yuan Xing: "Don't get involved in this matter, the emperor's mind can't even be guessed by me now, be careful to implicate you." And you're not allowed to drink alcohol in the future. ”

"Why?" Yuan Xingwei screamed, which soldier in the barracks doesn't drink? Wine is a thing, usually drink two glasses to win over the relationship between the robe and Ze, and if necessary, you can also drink to strengthen the courage to go to the battlefield to kill.

Ma Xiuying said angrily: "Yang Xian's nephew lost his life because he was drunk and offended the emperor without words, not only killing himself but also affecting his relatives, do you want to learn from him?" If you don't have an accident yourself, what should Xiao Miao and Ying'er do? ”

When Yuan Xing and Xia Xiaomiao got married, Ma Xiuying repeatedly warned him that he couldn't live up to Xia Xiaomiao, so he was quite obedient after he got married, and after a year, the two gave birth to a son named Yuan Ying, and Ma Xiuying also sent Fushun to send congratulatory gifts at that time.

Of course, his son is Yuan Xing's lifeblood, but wine is also something he can't give up, and he begged bitterly: "I'll drink less and promise not to get drunk." ”

Ma Xiuying also knew that he couldn't do what he asked for, so he said: "You can't just rely on the emperor being your brother-in-law to do nonsense." ”

Yuan Xing said solemnly: "Except for Brother Xu, I never mention my relationship with you to others. The emperor wanted to promote me several times, but I refused, and now this General Wu Yi is earned by me by my own ability. ”

Ma Xiuying smiled with relief: "If you can think like this, I am relieved." I don't want you to be rich, I just want you to be safe. ”

"Brother-in-law is really going to use military generals?" Yuan Xing chuckled in his heart and frowned, there was something in Ma Xiuying's words.

Ma Xiuying interrupted him, "Don't think nonsense, keep your duty." Don't spread what you shouldn't say, and resolutely refuse what you can't participate in, as long as you don't do anything wrong, no one dares to touch you. ”

Yuan Xing nodded thoughtfully, "Then I'll take them to the barracks to report." ”

"Don't get used to them." Ma Xiuying hesitated: "Don't let them suffer too much." ”

Yuan Xing patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, I watched these children grow up, and I can still be bullied." ”

Ma Xiuying glared at him, "You can't let them bully others at will!" If you let me know you're used to them, I'll clean you up first! ”

"Sister, you're so long-winded." Yuan Xing coolly shook the back of his head to Ma Xiuying, and walked out of the palace gate to beckon the children to get into the carriage.

Until the carriage turned into another street and disappeared, Ma Xiuying was still standing at the gate of the palace and watching.

Xun Ying reminded: "Master, go back." ”

Ma Xiuying withdrew her nostalgic eyes and said, "I'll go back first, you go and inquire about what happened in the court today, and see how the emperor will deal with Prime Minister Yang." ”

Xunying didn't know what Yang Xian had done, since Ma Xiuying had ordered her to investigate.

At this time, the atmosphere in the court was strange, and the faces of the ministers were cloudy.

The Soldiers and Horses Division first took office, "Emperor Qi, the person who took the lead in humiliating the royal family last night was Prime Minister Yang Cheng's nephew, and this person has been executed. ”

As soon as the words fell, the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate patrolled the city and said: "The minister wants to impeach Prime Minister Yang Cheng for conniving at his family, and he is lawless." ”

The privy envoy of the Picket House said: "The minister also impeached Prime Minister Yang Cheng for deceiving his subordinates and concealing his superiors, being ruthless, bold, and unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. It has been verified that when Prime Minister Yang Cheng was an official in Yangzhou, in order to create the illusion of a comprehensive resumption of farming, he sprinkled a layer of floating soil on all the fields before the inspection team arrived, but in fact less than half of the land was recultivated. Later, in order to speed up the development progress, the people were driven to work day and night, and some people were exhausted to death, freezing and starving to death. He also forced the people to take out their grain as tax grain, and if they could not get it, they were put in prison. In order to please the emperor, he spent fifteen taels of gold to buy two half-foot-long ears of rice from the Nanyang merchants, and presented them to the emperor to pretend to be the grain under his rule, and then killed the Nanyang merchants...... He relied on the emperor's grace, made bold moves, commanded with arrogance, and flew high. Li Jin, a new science and technology scholar, was punished by him to kneel under the sun and copy the official document ten times because he saw that he did not give a courtesy......"

Every time the privy envoy of the picket read a charge against Yang Xian, the officials exclaimed, and several officials who had a good relationship with Yang Xian wanted to intercede for him, but they all quietly retracted their feet.

Yang Xian knelt under the dragon chair, trembling all over, his face was like ashes, he didn't expect that so much evidence of his guilt would be involved because of his nephew's matter. He wanted to crush his nephew's corpse to ashes, but did he still have this chance? He didn't dare to look at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, he could only hope that Zhu Yuanzhang would be able to read it lightly for the sake of his conscientious work over the years.

Zhu Yuanzhang's mood was extremely angry, and he didn't expect that an accidental incident would involve his trusted courtiers. Yang Xian was his cronie who picked it up, but this cronie did such a deceitful thing behind his back.

Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang exchanged a subtle look, and Yang Xian's incriminating evidence was collected by them. Who let Zhu Yuanzhang have the intention of letting Yang Xian replace Li Shanchang, and at the same time blocked Hu Weiyong's promotion, so the two began to collect evidence against Yang Xian very early on, preparing to pull Yang Xian off the horse. This time, Yang Xian's nephew's anger at Shengyan happened to be a breakthrough, giving them an opportunity to attack Yang Xian.

Hu Weiyong stood up and said: "When Prime Minister Yang Cheng was in power in Zhongshu Province, he decided to save trouble, dismissed the old officials, and even used his cronies to kill Liu Bing, the imperial historian, and impeach Zuo Cheng Wang Guangyang, who was domineering and arrogant. His nephew dared to speak outrageously, but you can imagine how arrogant and presumptuous he usually is. ”

Li Shanchang closed the coffin and concluded, "The minister thinks that this person is reckless and adulterous, and the crime is unforgivable!" ”

The ministers seconded, "Please ask the emperor to punish Yang Xian!" ”

Listening to the hundreds of officials impeaching and attacking him, no one pleaded for himself, Yang Xian collapsed on the ground, and he didn't even have the strength to kneel. He had regret and hatred in his heart, regretting that he served as the left minister of Zhongshu, and after becoming the actual person in charge of Zhongshu Province, he often fought with Li Shanchang, the right prime minister, and Hu Weiyong, who participated in politics. hated himself for being too careless, he didn't see the sinister intentions of the two of them, the two always avoided their edges, and they were respectful on the surface, he thought that he had surrendered the two, but who knew that the two were waiting for him here. The officials who just impeached him were all from two people's subordinates, and they quietly collected so much evidence, this is going to be fatal!

Zhu Yuanzhang asked emotionlessly: "The evidence is ironclad, Yang Xian, what else do you have to say?" ”

Yang Xian fell to the ground, tears fell, and his lips trembled for a long time without shaking out a word.

"Drag it down, five horses will be divided! Confiscation of family property! Men are assigned to the border to fill the army, and women are reduced to slaves. Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, as if driving away a fly.

The ministers all looked sideways, their faces couldn't bear it, who would have thought that Yang Xiancai, who was in the limelight, would fall from a high place in a few months when he was appointed Zhongshu Zuocheng, and he fell to the top.
