"Your Majesty, the old minister still has something important to report. (To read the latest chapters of this book, please visit the Wรจn Novel Network biquge.info)"

Hearing Wen Guanliang's sudden appearance, Emperor Deqing glanced at Wen Guanliang, and then at Zhao Junchen intentionally or unintentionally, and then said slowly: "Oh? Wen Aiqing actually has something to play? It's rare, let's talk. โ€

Wen Guanliang raised his voice and said: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that in recent years, the accounts of the Ministry of Household Affairs are not clear, and he has repeatedly deducted all kinds of expenses from the Ministry of Industry under the pretext of insufficient money in the treasury, resulting in the Ministry of Industry's river defense, materials, city walls and other important things have been delayed. โ€

After Emperor Deqing was slightly stunned, his face was a little stern, and he turned his head to look at Li Chengru, who had been reappointed as the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, and asked, "Li Aiqing, is there such a thing?" โ€

Li Chengru knew that Wen Guanliang was impeached like this, called the Household Department, but it was actually Zhao Junchen, but he didn't want to get involved before the shape was clear, so he came out and said: "Your Majesty, the cooperation between the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry has always been the responsibility of the former servant Zhao Junchen Zhao, and the details are not clear to the minister." โ€

Li Chengru's words were telling the truth.

Emperor Deqing did not pursue it, and instead asked Zhao Junchen: "Zhao Aiqing, what Elder Wen Ge said, but the truth?" โ€

Zhao Junchen said: "Your Majesty, there is no such thing, the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry, whether it is river engineering, tuntian, materials, city walls, repairs, road repairs, rivers and other funds, are all related to the country's major affairs, the household has never dared to slack off, all kinds of funds over the years, the household has always tried their best to meet, and there has never been a deduction and delay. โ€

As he spoke, Zhao Junchen looked at Wen Guanliang and asked respectfully and politely, "Elder Wen Ge, I'm afraid you heard it wrong, right?" โ€

Wen Guanliang didn't answer, but looked at Gu Quan, the right deputy capital, Zuo Lanshan, the Ministry of Industry, and others suspiciously, but saw Gu Quan, Zuo Lanshan and others hanging their heads as always, as if they didn't know what was happening in front of them.

In fact, since he just came out of the report, Gu Quan, Zuo Lanshan and others did not follow him out to respond, Wen Guanliang already felt that the situation was wrong, and now looking at such a scene, what does it mean, Wen Guanliang has gone through decades of officialdom ups and downs, and he is naturally very clear, but he only feels that his heart sinks!

But with the idea of being lucky, Wen Guanliang still said: "Your Majesty, the household department has been running better and better in the past few years, and the old minister does not dare to question it casually, but this situation is very important, and he does not dare to hide it, so he has this report." โ€

After brushing himself off, Wen Guanliang continued: "However, as far as the old minister knows, in this case, Lord Gu Quangu, the right deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has investigated, and it is the clearest, and the Ministry of Industry is the person concerned. โ€

However, without waiting for Emperor Deqing to ask, Gu Quan, the right deputy of the imperial capital, had already come out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has indeed heard such rumors, the matter is serious, and he dare not slack off, and he has also seriously investigated, but in the end, he found that such rumors are just made out of nothing, and there is no such thing." โ€

Zuo Lanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, also said: "Qi Yu His Majesty, the minister is trusted by His Majesty, in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and has the best understanding of the situation of the Ministry of Industry. โ€

After hearing Gu Quan and Zuo Lanshan's words, although Wen Guanliang was already mentally prepared, his body was still shocked, his eyes were gloomy, and he turned his head to scan back and forth at the two of them, his eyes were like guns and arrows.

And Zuo Lanshan and Gu Quan, feeling ashamed, did not dare to face Wen Guanliang's forced gaze, and hung their heads and remained silent after they were listed.

On the contrary, it was Chen Dongxiang, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, with a calm face, who actually had the courage to look at Wen Guanliang, with a little ridicule in his eyes, and he did not hide it at all.

โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ

Zuo Lanshan and Gu Quan are both Wen Guanliang's disciples, and this matter is not a secret in the court.

And Wen Guanliang's impeachment of the household department this time is to deal with Zhao Junchen, which can be seen by anyone.

Therefore, when they saw Zuo Lanshan and Gu Quan actually singing against Wen Guanliang, it is natural to imagine how shocked the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and Central China were.

Could it be that Zuo Lanshan and Gu Quan didn't know when they would take refuge in Zhao Junchen!?

On the other side, seeing Wen Guanliang standing there alone at this time, but no one spoke out to respond, Zhao Junchen sighed secretly, but he took the opportunity to look around, inspecting the expressions of the hundred officials.

The vast majority of officials were shocked with irrepressible shock at this time; Zuo Lanshan, Gu Quan and the others all hung their heads, making people look down on their expressions at this time, whether they were uneasy and guilty, or take it for granted; Zhan Shanchang and Tong Huan often gloated on their faces; Shen Changmao and Huang Yourong, the two elders, looked at Wen Guanliang thoughtfully, and their expressions were meaningful.

The only ones who can keep their expressions unchanged are the first assistant Zhou Shangjing, and the Deqing Emperor on the throne. Looking at the expressions of the two of them, it seems that they don't know what Zuo Lanshan and Gu Quan's statement means, of course this is impossible, but I don't know if the two of them are hiding their true emotions and attitudes, or if they have expected it.

However, when he saw Chen Dongxiang and Wen Guanliang looking at each other with sarcasm, Zhao Junchen frowned slightly.

Although Chen Dongxiang is now Zhao Junchen's person, seeing Chen Dongxiang treat the old master like this still makes Zhao Junchen unhappy.

And just as Zhao Junchen's eyes were inspecting, Wen Guanliang also looked at Zhao Junchen, when he saw Zhao Junchen's calm eyes, it seemed that he had expected it, Wen Guanliang finally determined that the reason why Zuo Lanshan, Gu Quan and others betrayed him must have been bought by Zhao Junchen by some means.

Thinking that his original plan was actually the end of betrayal and separation, Wen Guanliang's body shook slightly, and after losing his confidence and prestige, his face turned much older.

"Your Majesty, since this is the case, I'm afraid that the old minister was misled by the rumors, so he rashly reported it, and asked His Majesty to forgive his sins."

After Wen Guanliang was silent for a long time, he finally expressed his attitude, his voice suddenly became a little hoarse, and he said slowly.

When Wen Guanliang said this, he was admitting defeat and giving up.

For a time, most of the officials in the DPRK and China focused their attention on Zhao Junchen.

Zhao Junchen lowered his head and looked at him obediently, as low as ever, but many courtiers looked at Zhao Junchen with a little awe.

It is not an easy thing to silently let Wen Guanliang betray his relatives.

Since the news that Zhao Junchen and Wen Guanliang tore their faces came out, everyone thought that the two factions would usher in a dragon fight, but no one could have imagined that it would end so abruptly in the end, and Wen Guanliang, who originally had the upper hand in prestige, would be defeated so completely.

However, it turns out that this matter is not over, but only the beginning.

What happened next, even Zhao Junchen couldn't think of it, but it made Zhao Junchen completely understand the cruelty of officialdom.
