Chapter 146: There are witnesses
"There is a book, nothing to retreat from-" The eunuch in charge waved the dust, and the person retreated to the side of the screen. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The first major court meeting after Mu Xiu, it is said that there should be no major events.
Spring ploughing has passed, the autumn harvest is still early, this year's Dashun territory can be said to be smooth wind and rain; There is no war on the frontier, and thanks to Yunqi, even the Japanese who sneak attack the coast at every turn are a lot more honest.
Emperor Jingtai raised his puffy eyelids, swept around the ministers in the hall, and stood one by one, silent.
Gently patted the armrest on the side of the dragon chair, Emperor Jingtai was ready to go back to make up for sleep, people are old, they always can't sleep at night, and they can't get up in the morning. The inexhaustible spirit of youth is gone with time.
"Minister~ There is a play!"
Emperor Jingtai, who was about to get up with a shaking voice, suddenly stumbled, and just raised his half-prick butt and pulled it back.
His dry eyes puffed up, and his eyes suddenly became clear, and Emperor Jingtai recognized the owner of the voice-
It is the "notorious" history of He Yu.
There are two difficult imperial histories in this dynasty, one is Hou Mingqiang (the skinny monkey who was Qinglan last time), and the other is He Liangliang. As for why he used "notorious" to describe He Jieliang, there is no other reason, this He Yushi always likes to stare at the backyard of ministers and emperors, so he mixed up such a "nickname": He Skirt Liang.
Emperor Jingtai's faint brain was a little painful, and it seemed that today's "return to sleep" would not be able to sleep. "Say."
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to participate in the country's sacrifice to Ji Zhaoya......" He skirt was as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and a pair of wings on the black gauze hat swayed irregularly with the tone of the "righteous and awe-inspiring" speech, and the Nine Emperors looked a little funny, so he lowered his head and only stared at the python pattern on his toes in a daze.
β...... is a teacher in vain, and he is not worthy of being a priest for the son of the country! β
After He Yushi finished his complaint, he glanced at the ministers with some pride. How about it, I didn't expect it, the Ji Daru you flaunt is just a scum!
Yan Shifan held his breath and stared, all his attention was fixed on the one on the dragon chair, wanting to find out the emperor's attitude towards this matter as soon as possible.
It turned out to be a complaint, and the lawsuit was still the well-known seasonal festival wine in the north and south, and the Nine Emperor Princes were interested and wanted to know how their father and the crown prince would react.
Li Desheng's face did not change, as if his mind was not here at all.
For a while, the hall was strangely quiet, and everyone's eyes kept wandering between the emperor and He Skirtliang.
"Xuanji Zhaoya goes to the palace." As soon as the emperor spoke, the inner servants hurriedly ran out.
This time, He Skirt Liang was even more proud, and his fat double chin was about to rush to the sky.
"Your Majesty, the ministers also have their own music." As if unwilling to be so cold in He Skirt, Hou Mingqiang also stood up.
"Say." Emperor Jingtai is quite a bit of lice, and he is not afraid of bites.
"Your Majesty, Shu Qinglan, a member of the Zhongshu House, is not an official, and competes for benefits with the people......" After speaking, Hou Mingqiang didn't forget to pick a glance at Master Mi, you are Shu Qinglan's boss!
Mi Da stood in his position with his stomach shy, as if he was asleep.
"Your Majesty," Ren Zhongqing, the right attendant of the ministry, also kicked in, "Guo Xiaoqing, the prefect of Kaiyuan, took advantage of his position to accept bribes from others and sell his official ......"
Ho ho, the corners of the Nine Emperors' mouths rose, this is to destroy the Ji family.
Emperor Jingtai was expressionless, and a group of old ministers were also "none of their business", and none of them spoke out to defend the Ji family.
Hey, let's meet together.
******
When Qinglan went out, the sky was still gray, as if it was going to rain.
"Miss, take this with you." Yichan intimately presented a set of rain clothes.
Immediately, Qinglan pulled the corners of her mouth, pull it down, even if you are drenched, you can't wear this body in front of the emperor!
"Miss!" Jingwen, who came later, was also stunned when she saw the robe, "Miss, here you go." β
A rainproof cloak with a hood, Qing Lan took it and found that the material was extremely thin and lightweight. So I gave Yichan a look to the Yichan around me, so I still have to learn a little!
Yichan sneered and took the coat behind her.
"Let's go."
Qinglan took the lead, followed by the attendants and guards who delivered the decree.
When she arrived at the gate of the palace, there was a light rain in the sky, and Qing Lan thought about it, but still left the cloak on the saddle.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Shu Qinglan, who was walking quickly on the road, suddenly paused, and there was an umbrella in front of her.
"Lord Shu." The young chamberlain was holding an umbrella that was standard in the palace, he was a little taller than Qinglan, but the position of the umbrella was just right.
"You areβ" looked kind, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them.
"Minion Youth." The young chamberlain bowed, smiling harmlessly as he straightened up, and Qinglan took the umbrella and thanked him.
"Your Excellency has tormented the minions."
Qinglan has seen a lot of palace attendants, most of them have a delicate mind to cling to power and a pair of eyes that desire for money, and a "clean person" like Qing Judge is really rare, and she can't help but feel good.
The young judge glanced around vigilantly, "Lord Zhang, please rest assured that Lord Shu." β
Qinglan smiled back, this Zhang Juzheng is really pervasive, no wonder he can do Zaifu.
Ma Tiaoer changed the green bricks, the green bricks connected to the rock rocks, and when Qinglan went to the palace, Master Ji Zhaoya had already arrived.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live~!"
Although the lamp was in her hand, the light in the hall was still dim and unclear, and Qinglan couldn't see the emperor's expression clearly, but the glance in the salute just now - it seemed that the emperor's hair was whiter.
"Flat." Emperor Jingtai's tone was flat, which disappointed the ministers who wanted to test his attitude.
"Your Majesty."
Compared with Shu Qinglan more than a month ago, she is obviously more "promising" this time.
Although he is still the same person and still wears the same official uniform, standing among the ministers above the main hall, the majesty and aura exuded by his body are no longer what they used to be.
Pei Qingzhi was a little surprised by Qinglan's changes, the most difficult thing for a person to change is her own temperament, Shu Qinglan has not only changed but also become stronger, she is now more and more like a member of the royal family.
Thinking like this, Pei Qingzhi's eyes were sour for no reason.
The Nine Emperors couldn't help but glance at Qinglan twice, she was worthy of being a person who had been on the battlefield and entered and exited the court, this woman was more heroic than ordinary women.
Even the prince and the princess, who have always been picky, have to look at Qinglan differently, this Mama Guan is really a talent~!
Only Yan Song, drooping his eyelids and clasping his hands, as if he didn't exist.
"Your Majesty," now that the main master has arrived, He Yushi naturally refuses to let go of such a "good" opportunity, he wants to humiliate Ji Zhaoya fiercely to relieve the hatred of the "Northeast"!
Guo Xiaoqing not only did not "visit" this He Yushi before going to the Northeast, but also wrote to the emperor after taking office: The Northeast is vast and sparsely populated, and it is not easy to inspect the governor every year, once every three years.
This is a disguised way to block He Yushi's way to make money, it's strange that he doesn't hate it!
He Yushi hated the house and Wu, and naturally had no good words in his mouth, and launched a new round of "scolding war" around Ji Zhaoya's "sleeping" of his "master".
******
"Lord He," Qinglan interrupted He Skirt's cool talk, "The so-called catch thieves and stolen goods, catch traitors and catch doubles." Master He has too much addiction to red mouth and white teeth, but there is evidence to prove that (my master) is indeed something? β
He Huanliang clasped his hands on his chest, his eyes slanted, "This official naturally has evidence!" β
"Then please ask Lord He to come up with evidence!" Qinglan has a standard royal demeanor, and her face barely changes when she speaks.
Emperor Jingtai immediately agreed.
While waiting, Li Desheng glanced at Shu Qinglan.
The latter politely replied with a "reassuring" look.
Soon, a young man in his twenties was brought to the Imperial Front.
When Ji Zhaoya saw this person's appearance clearly, she couldn't help but be shocked.
"Who's kneeling?" Without Emperor Jingtai to speak, Xu Zhenlu, the secretary of Dali Temple, committed an "occupational disease".
"Student Bai Qiuen..."
Bethune?!
"Poof~", Qinglan didn't hold back and laughed out loud on the spot.
Everyone showed a look of surprise, and He Yushi jumped to his feet directly, "Why is Lord Shu laughing?" β
"Oh, I heard that there was a new little emperor grandson in Prince Su's mansion yesterday, and I am happy for His Royal Highness King Su and the emperor."
Poof~ Pei Qingzhi opened the corners of his mouth unkindly, silently revealing a row of white teeth.
The Nine Emperor Princes, King Su Li Demin glanced at Qinglan inexplicably.
Xu Zhenlu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he turned his head to look at Bai Qiuen, "What is your relationship with the Season Sacrifice Wine?" β
It's no wonder that Xu Zhenlu asked this, it's really this Bai Qiuen who looks like Ji Zhaoya to be precise!
"Student..."Bai Qiuen looked at Ji Zhaoya with too many emotions in his eyes, grievances, resentment, helplessness, and admiration..."Lord Ji is really Qiuen's biological father!"
The ministers were in an uproar, the children were so old, the matter of Ji Zhaoya and his mother... Isn't that a sure thing!
"As far as the minister knows, Ji Saijiu did not marry a wife... or conquest. He Yushi's words were not so much for the emperor to hear, but to further confirm Ji Zhaoya's "crime".
"Mother..."Bai Qiuen's face was distorted with pain, "Mother Bai, because of her relationship with Lord Ji... After a long time, he was abandoned by the Zhu family, and the student grew up in his grandparents' ...... since he was a child"
Bai Qiuen seems to be very well prepared, with his words to the point and his logic clear. Because of half-truths and half-truths, and truth among falsehoods, the credibility of the "testimony" has risen sharply.
The Bai family was divorced at the beginning, indeed because of Ji Zhaoya.
And Ji Zhaoya returned to Ji's house without even saying hello, and Zhu Shanchang, who "forgot his New Year's friend", of course had to ask for an understanding.
It's just that Ji Zhaoya doesn't want to say that except for the head of the Ji family, Old Man Ji, no one knows what the matter really is.
But Zhu Shanchang was unrelenting, such a good student suddenly ran away, and he was unwilling to die!
So Zhu Shanchang personally went to Dongshan, and now, not only did he know the truth, but even the entire Dongshan Ji clan knew!
The bad thing is that Ji Zhaoya has a father who loves to drink, and he can't talk about anything after drinking.
Old Man Ji has treated him several times, but Daddy Ji doesn't remember to drink, and his true form is revealed as soon as he dips in wine!
Ji Zhaoya felt that she had no face to stay at home anymore, so she simply went out to play in the mountains and rivers and lived a wanton life.
And Zhu Shanchang, after returning to Xiangdi, fell seriously ill, and then took a break from the Bai family, who was pregnant with Liujia.
Therefore, Bai Qiuen did grow up in the Bai family, and the Bai family had passed away a few years ago. Of course, part of Bai's death should also be "attributed" to the Ji family, and at that time, Ji Zhaoya also agreed to Emperor Jingtai to be the priest of this country for this case.
Qinglan looked at Bai Qiuen, who was in tears and "performed perfectly", and smiled coldly, really our Ji family is a soft persimmon!
"Your Majesty, the minister has a few words to ask Bai Qiuen."
As soon as Qinglan said this, He Yushi wanted to jump again, but was stopped by Yan Shifan's eyes.
Emperor Jingtai nodded, his expression unbraided.
"When did you find out about your origins?" Qinglan slowly paced to Bai Qiuen's side, without a trace of emotion in her voice.
"Mother... Before death. Bai Qiuen kept his head down, making it difficult to see his expression.
"Then why are you looking for your father now?" He didn't dare to look up and say anything, he was afraid that his eyes would reveal the secret!
"Keeping the system for the mother."
Yo~ Still a "filial son".
"Six years after your mother died, you kept it for six years?" The words are full of irony.
Hearing this, Bai Qiuen raised her head suddenly, but immediately lowered her head, how did she know the time of her mother's death? Don't...
Bai Qiuen's heart "suddenly" rose, "Student... If you want to gain fame, then ..."
The ministers heard this, and they were afraid that Ji Zhaoya would "look down" on him.
"Do you dare to swear in court that every word you said before was true?" Qinglan is "pressing" step by step.
"Ahh Bai Qiuen held out three fingers.
"Your Majesty," Qinglan suddenly turned around, "Bullying the monarch and deserving of the guilt, what Weichen said is right, right?" "It's not loud, but it's loud and clear.
Emperor Jingtai pondered Shu Qinglan's words and muttered, "Not bad. β
"There are also witnesses to prove that what this white man said is not true." Qinglan straightened her spine, her face still maintaining the royal standard demeanor.
Now Li Desheng is relieved, it is good to have a "back move".
Emperor Jingtai is still quite satisfied with Qinglan's performance today (Your Majesty, your requirements are really low), "Xuan." β
Zhang Juzheng was secretly happy, it seemed that he had made the right move.
During the waiting time, Hou Mingqiang did not intend to let Shu Qinglan go, and brought up the old matter again, asking the emperor to severely punish Shu Qinglan and "know the law and break the law".
I heard Emperor Jingtai smell for a while, what's wrong with my daughter-in-law saving a little dowry by herself, it's worth shouting at the court!
Officials of Dashun are not allowed to do business, this is the rule. But the rule is that the dead are alive, and everyone knows it, and it is generally placed in the name of the lady.
Hou Mingqiang's remarks instantly aroused public outrage, and Shu Qinglan was dealt with, so what if the emperor took this opportunity to deal with his own business!
There is no need for Qinglan to speak, everyone will talk about your words for "Princess Duan".
This matter was over, and Hou Ming returned to his position angrily.
Yan Shifan's palms were sweating, what kind of witness did Shu Qinglan have?
Half an hour later, a middle-aged man dressed as a soapman was brought up to the temple.
"See the emperor for the lower officials." Fan Dianshi didn't dare to raise his head, but it didn't prevent his eyes from rolling.
Yan Shifan chuckled in his heart, and secretly scolded Xu Chunrong half to death.
It's just that this game of chess has already been played, and it must be finished anyway.
