Chapter 64 Bribery and Fraud
After such a fuss, Guan Tongshu was idle and comfortable, whether it was Kou Lan'er or Mu Wanrong for several days, Guan Tongshu felt bored, I thought I could fight with these two guys again, but I didn't expect to be a turtle with a shrunken head, it was so boring.
But the Queen Mother was also furious when she learned about it, but when the Queen Mother knew the news, it was still a few days after the incident happened, and it was useless for the Queen Mother to do something at that time, so she had to secretly curse Guan Tongshu behind her back, and then scold Mu Wanrong for being incompetent.
Guan Tongshu lived the days of making pastries in the morning and walking around the garden with Banxiang in the afternoon, so bored that Guan Tongshu wanted to take the initiative to make trouble for Mu Wanrong and Kou Lan'er.
Until that day, Guan Tongshu's peaceful life was broken.
Recently, there have been no major events in the court, Qin Zhao still listened to those ministers discuss the matter of Chen Sesame and Rotten Grain, and that day in the court, Qin Zhao thought that it was time to report some dispensable trivial matters, but Kou Shilang suddenly stood up, bowed down and said, "Weichen has something to play!" ”
Qin Zhao narrowed his eyes, and Kou Shilang ...... It's Kolan's Amma, right? It seems to be a lackey of the Queen Mother? I'm going to see what bullshit he can put out!
Although he thought so in his heart, but on the surface, he still had to do a good job, Qin Zhao said very kindly, "Oh? Kou Aiqing, please have something to say. ”
"Wechen wants to report Guozijian for bribery and fraud!" Kou Shilang spoke sonorously and loudly, and as soon as the words fell, the entire court was quiet.
Qin Zhao frowned, Guozijian? Isn't that Guan Tongshu's Amma? Taking care of Tongshu said that it can be seen that he Ama has been poor all his life and has never been corrupt at all, how can he take bribes and help others cheat? There must be something strange about this.
"Oh? This is empty, Kou Shilang, and it is hard for me to be convinced. Qin Zhao narrowed his eyes a little dangerously.
Kou Shilang seemed to have known that Qin Zhao would say such a thing, and hurriedly continued, "Back to the emperor, the minister does not dare to speak falsely, since Weichen dares to report the crime of the national eunuch to the emperor, there is naturally evidence, come here!" As soon as Kou Shilang finished speaking, two servants came up with a stack of gold and a letter, followed by a scholar with a hastily looking face.
It seems that this Kou Shilang has been prepared for a long time.
"Your Majesty, the human and material evidence is here." Kou Shilang said, "This stack of gold was found in the house of the Guozijian, and there was a letter of thanks written by the bribe, saying that it was a thank you to the Lord Guozijian for helping him tamper with the scores. ”
"The scholar who bribed the national eunuch was also caught, the emperor, he recruited them all, if you don't believe it, you can listen to this scholar." Seeing that Qin Zhao didn't speak, Kou Shilang was afraid that he was not convinced enough, so he said again.
The scholar was submissive, as if he was very afraid, and when he saw Kou Shilang looking at him, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty...... Be...... It was the untouchables who bribed the Lord of the Country...... Let him help tamper with the scores, so that the untouchables won the first place, and now ...... Now that the East Window incident has happened, the untouchables have come to confess...... Still...... also begged the emperor to take it lightly! ”
"Oh?" Qin Zhao's tone couldn't be heard to stop the anger, "Kou Shilang is really my good courtier!" ”
"Weichen doesn't dare to be." was suddenly praised by Qin Zhao, and Kou Shilang couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, this person changed the land, and he never seemed to be able to touch what he wanted to do.
"What about the rest of the country?" Qin Zhao asked. 520
"Back to the emperor, Weichen has taken the criminal minister to Dali Temple and waited for the emperor's whereabouts." Kou Shilang hurriedly replied.
"Kou Shilang, Shilang is a few officials." Qin Zhao's face darkened a little, and he opened his mouth to ask this sentence.
"Back to ...... Return to the emperor. Kou Shilang broke out in a slight cold sweat behind his back, feeling that there was something wrong with Qin Zhao's tone?
"The squire is a second-class official." Kou Shilang replied in a proper manner.
Qin Zhao's face became much more gloomy, "Is that my memory wrong?" Why don't I remember that the second-grade officials of my dynasty have the power to let Dali Temple arrest people? After saying that, his tone became much heavier, "Kou Shilang, my Aiqing, you told me, did I remember something wrong or what's going on?" ”
Kou Shilang panicked, and some of them were speechless, "Uh...... We-Chen......"
Seeing Kou Shilang's embarrassed look, Mu Shang on the side secretly scolded useless, but he still stood up to save the scene, "Emperor Qiqi, according to what Weichen saw, Kou Shilang rashly called the people of Dali Temple to arrest the Guozi priest wine, although it was a little reckless, but it was also for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, corrupt officials were mothed, and the century-old foundation was destroyed by corrupt officials. ”
"Did I tell you to speak?" Qin Zhao's face was pale, "What a good one for Jiangshan Sheji?" For the sake of the country, can she cut it first and then play? Or did the people think that I would not judge fairly, so you were convicted first? ”
"Weichen doesn't dare!" Kou Shilang and Mu Shang hurriedly knelt on the ground, for fear of upsetting Qin Zhao again.
There are still many upright people in the court, such as Song Qingping, he knows Guan Tongshu's Ama Guan Li very well, this person has always been wooden, how could he do something to take bribes?
"Emperor Qiqi, according to what the ministers have seen, there are many mysteries in this matter, and the prince of the country has always been fair and honest, it is hard to imagine that he would do such a thing." Song Qingping said, he said that he was righteous, Song Qingping rarely helped people speak, and the weight of this opening can be imagined.
"Song Qingping!" Mu Shang was a little unbearable, this Song Qingping was against himself everywhere, and the last time Wanrong's thing was that he insisted on a physical examination, and his daughter suffered such a huge grievance, and today he is going to harm his good deeds, I really can't bear it.
"Guan Li, he accepted bribes, the human evidence is there, how can there be any suspicion!" Mu Shang's eyes widened, "Lord Song wants to stir up kindness, if this is to cover up criminals, he will also be punished, even if it is Shangshu!" ”
Song Qingping didn't bother to argue with Mu Shang, but he didn't take him in his eyes at all, never squinted, and said, "Why should Mu people be so flustered? Weichen just meant that the emperor was sending someone to thoroughly investigate and convict him, in case other crimes could be involved, right? How can it be a cover-up? ”
Mu Shang was speechless by Song Qingping's words, so he had to snort coldly and didn't speak.
Of course, Qin Zhao believes that Guan Tongshu's Ama is innocent, should the so-called actions of this Mu Shang and Kou Shilang be more obvious? You want to convict someone by relying on this little thing? It's really funny, this kind of thing, anyone can get it.
"Okay, first put the so-called physical evidence and that witness into custody for me first!" Qin Zhao finally spoke, "I feel that what Lord Song said is right, I have to take a good look at this matter to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net!" ”
