The ministers present are all close ministers of Liu Zheng, and they are all clear about the recent boiling river demon incident.

They who clearly knew about the river demon incident naturally knew that the final mastermind of this incident was Xu Gong, the manager of Changsha County's Qianzhuang.

One day, when Xu Gong's name was reached, some of them immediately had some changes in their faces.

Especially Xu You, he knows very well who Xu Gong is and what he has committed.

If Xu Gong was really caught by Liu Zheng, he was afraid that he would be implicated.

The expression on Xu You's face became extremely ugly.

However, at this moment, he still looked his gaze outside the main hall.

I want to see if the prisoner Xu Gong who was brought in is the Xu Gong I know.

Xu You's face had a hint of anticipation, hoping that the person who was arrested was not his clansman.

But it was clear that his expectations had been disappointed.

Xu Gong, who was tied up and brought in by several brocade guards, was his clansman, that is, the head of the Qianzhuang in Changsha County.

That Xu Gong was tied up and pushed in by several brocade guards, with a panicked look on his face.

In this place now, even if Xu Gong had some heroic thoughts of righteousness at the beginning, it was gone at this moment, because he knew that his ending could not be changed, whether he pleaded guilty or not, Liu Zheng had the ability to kill him.

And at this time on the top of the main hall. A lot of things are already out of his control.

Xu Gong was taken to the main hall and did not speak, but stood in front of everyone in a panic.

Liu Zheng spoke first and spoke to the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must all know this person."

"The river demon farce that made a lot of noise before, the case of the loss of money in the money village. This person is behind this. ”

"It was he who embezzled 20 million of the bank's money. And, made a shipwreck river demon farce. ”

Liu Zheng opened his mouth and said to the civil and military officials below, although his tone was flat.

But there is no shortage of complaints in the words.

These civil and military officials could hear Liu Zheng's anger towards Xu Gong from Liu Zheng's words.

These civil and military officials below didn't dare to say anything at this moment.

can only listen to Liu Zheng's lecture quietly.

"Xu Gong has confessed all of them, and this time all the people involved in the corruption incident in Qianzhuang in Changsha County have been decided, giving you a warning!"

Of course, there are not a few high-ranking officials involved in Xu Gong's matter, and what is involved is nothing more than some inconsequential little people.

Those people will be killed, and these civil and military officials in the court will not feel pity for this.

It's just that Liu Zheng's attitude towards this matter shocked them with the resoluteness he showed.

"In addition to this, there is another person, and I must criticize this matter in public!"

Everyone was so resolute because Liu Zheng killed the civil and military officials involved in this matter.

At this time, I heard Liu Zheng say that there was another person immediately. Prick up your ears and want to hear who this person Liu Zheng is talking about?

"Xu You, are you guilty of this matter?"

Xu You's face was already very ugly, after all, after Xu Gong was arrested, this matter would definitely involve him.

Speaking of which, Xu Gong is the clan member he recommended. At the lightest, he also has an unknown charge.

At this time, hearing Liu Zheng point himself out directly at this court meeting, Xu You was frightened and went straight forward.

And he who did not promise fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is guilty."

Xu You didn't even argue anything, since Liu Zheng had already put this on the table, it meant that Liu Zheng already had conclusive evidence, and it would be useless to continue to quibble, but it would cause Liu Zheng's disgust.

When Liu Zheng saw Xu You's attitude, he was a little less angry at this time.

"Say it yourself."

Liu Zheng did not directly open his mouth to punish Xu You, but asked rhetorically, wanting to see if Xu You knew what crime he had committed.

Xu You's face was stunned, although he was a little dumbfounded, but he also clearly understood that Liu Zheng wanted him to personally explain what crime he had committed, and Xu You's face was not good-looking for a while, but he could only start counting his sins in this hall.

"First, Weichen didn't know the person, and he mistakenly believed in that Xu Gong, which led to a catastrophe, and this time, Weichen was secondarily responsible."

"Well, you still have a little bit of self-knowledge."

"Second, it is also a sin that Xu Gong accepted a bribe of 300 yuan from Xu Gong not long ago, but I haven't touched any of the money, and I have returned it to Changsha Money Village a few days ago."

Xu You is still a smart person, and he immediately told Liu Zheng all about his affairs.

After Liu Zheng heard Xu You say this, he originally wanted to deal with Xu You ruthlessly, but now he is not so angry.

Knowing mistakes can improve a lot, although Xu You made some mistakes, however, this kind of thing is not a major mistake, Liu Zheng has known about Xu You's character for a long time.

In history, he was a greedy person, and in addition to being greedy for money, there was no one in his eyes.

Originally, Liu Zheng also wanted to dismiss his post and investigate it, so that Xu You could calm down, but now after hearing that Xu You had actually returned all Xu Gong's money, he also understood that Xu You had already understood.

"Ziyuan, although these two crimes do not lead to death, they are also shameful, as the head of the cabinet, you have not made a good head for the civil and military officials, and you will still be punished for this matter!"

"Nian has followed me for many years, how much merit you have, temporarily remove you from your official position, and personally go to Changsha County to manage the money village, if this matter is not done well, then a heavy fine!"

Liu Zheng still remembers some old feelings, and is unwilling to directly give death to Xu You, although Xu You has some sins, but it is not enough for Liu Zheng to really give him death.

Xu You originally saw Liu Zheng's angry appearance, and he sighed a little in his heart, and thought that he was going to die this time, after all, he had followed Liu Zheng for so long and was the most familiar with Liu Zheng's temper.

Now that he heard Liu Zheng's answer, after not giving himself death, Xu You immediately became grateful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Weichen must take this as a warning and dare not commit it again. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time, it is just to give you a body shape, our revolution has not yet succeeded, the world has not yet been unified, it is not okay to be greedy for enjoyment, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, I hope you can understand, otherwise the sky net will be restored, and it will not be missed."

Liu Zheng said, got up from the dragon chair, and then brushed his sleeves and left.

A pilgrimage broke up like this.

Only those ministers were left, looking at each other one by one, you look at me, I look at you, and helped Xu You, who was kneeling on the ground, and slowly left the hall.
