Chapter 253: Lifting a Rock to Shoot Yourself in the Foot

According to the pre-plan, these ministers came out one by one, and they all started to impeach Qin Ming about Qin Ming's corruption.

During this period, Qin Ming just looked at it with a smile and didn't speak, just waiting for these people to impeach him one by one.

And at this time, listening to the ministers below who were indignantly saying that Qin Ming was corrupt and bribed, he also understood why Qin Ming said that he had a good show today.

He helplessly looked at the Shoufu University Scholar who was talking, and said, "Shoufu ......"

Without waiting for the emperor to speak, the first assistant was afraid of being interrupted, and continued: "Your Majesty, this is a big deal at this time, as the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, coercing others to give him 30,000 taels of gold, the situation is serious!" ”

"Uh......" said the emperor, "this matter ......"

"Your Majesty, the seriousness of this matter is self-evident, once it reaches the ears of the common people, saying that the court officials embezzled 30,000 taels of gold, will this be okay?" The Ministry of Industry Shangshu spoke.

The Emperor sighed, intending to stop the ministers from talking so that they would not be too ugly later.

But they are like this, obviously they can't stop it, and the emperor has no choice but to cooperate with Qin Ming later and slap his face......

At this time, Qin Ming was still smiling, even if he was looked at by the surrounding ministers, he was very calm.

After these ministers finally finished speaking, Prime Minister Zuo made a summary:

"Your Majesty, Qin Ming's son, he was so corrupt on the first day of his tenure, please Your Majesty, punish him severely!"

So, more than a dozen officials spoke together: "Please Your Majesty severely punish ......"

The emperor sighed helplessly and said, "Do you have any evidence!" ”

The right capital of the Imperial Court of the Metropolitan Procuratorate spoke: "Your Majesty, the Imperial History of the Left Capital is already being investigated, and after the gold is found, there will be human and material evidence, and I believe that the Imperial History of the Left Capital will come back soon!" ”

"What if you can't find it?" Qin Ming suddenly spoke.

Youdu Yushi sneered: "Thirty thousand taels of gold, it's not something you can hide, how can you not find it." ”

"That's it, you wait, Qin Ming, this time you don't want to fool the past again." Ministry of Industry Shangshu said.

Qin Ming waved his hand: "It's useless to say this, then the evidence will speak!" ”

"Hmph, then wait, I believe that Zuodu Yushi will be back soon!" Prime Minister Zuo sneered.

However, time passed minute by minute, and Zuodu Yushi did not return for a long time.

Just when the ministers were waiting a little impatiently, finally, Zuodu Yushi strode into the main hall.

Seeing Zuodu Yushi coming back, the dozen or so ministers immediately smiled.

Even Mrs. Zhou pointed at Qin Ming and said, "Qin Ming, what else do you have to say this time?" ”

Qin Ming: "............"

He was indeed speechless and helpless.

Did you find the evidence? Just so impatient?

In fact, Zuodu Yushi's face is not very good-looking.

After he came over, he heard the right prime minister say: "Du Yushi, bring 30,000 taels of gold to the main hall!" ”

Zuodu Yushi took a deep breath and saluted the emperor: "Your Majesty, minister...... Didn't find it. ”

"What?" More than a dozen ministers were stunned, and then they all stared at Zuodu Yushi.

That Zhou Taifu frowned even more and said, "How come? That's 30,000 taels of gold, and you have to pack a dozen boxes, how can you not find it? ”

"Qin Ming, where did you hide the gold?" Mrs. Zhou glared at Qin Ming angrily.

Qin Ming snorted and said, "You want to know where the gold is?" ”

Everyone looked at him, and saw Qin Ming sneer and said, "Ask Your Majesty!" ”

These ministers were stunned and asked Your Majesty?

So they all looked at the emperor suspiciously.

Seeing that the emperor sighed helplessly, he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, see for yourself what it is?" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the corner of the main hall, where there were a dozen chests.

Zuo Du Yushi's eyes lit up: "It turns out that Your Majesty has already checked." ”

The other ministers were also overjoyed when they heard this, and then Mrs. Zhou said:

"Your Majesty is wise, you have already checked Qin Ming. May I ask Your Majesty, what do you want to do with Qin Ming? ”

The emperor frowned: "Deal with it?" Qin Ming raised 30,000 gold for the disaster area, why did he deal with him? ”

"Huh?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then Mrs. Zhou said: "Your Majesty, this is Qin Ming's greed, how did it become a fundraiser in the disaster area?" ”

Gorgeous. The emperor slapped the table and said, "I once asked Qin Ming to find a way to raise 1 million taels of silver as food for the next few months in the disaster area, and this 30,000 gold is the fine he made to a prisoner.

He brought this gold to me yesterday, so why do you talk about corruption? As a minister, what do you mean by making a presumptuous judgment without checking the facts, and framing my good minister like this? ”

More than a dozen ministers were so frightened that they hurriedly knelt down, and all of them had ugly faces.

Where did they come up with this result? They all thought that Qin Ming was greedy for the 30,000 gold, but how did they think that he was raising money for food?

Now these ministers regretted their deaths, they planned here for a long time, thinking that Qin Ming was decided, but they were making meritorious contributions.

Thinking of this, many ministers' faces turned white.

What is it called? It's called lifting a stone and hitting one's own feet, and it's the kind that smashes hard.

Thinking of the scene at the beginning when they kept complaining to the emperor one by one, these people felt ashamed.

It's not just a shame, in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he really rubbed his face on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the ministers don't know that Lord Qin is preparing for food, and the ministers think that he is corrupting, and he has no intention of framing Lord Qin, please let Your Majesty know clearly!" Prime Minister Zuo said.

Du Yushi also spoke: "Yes, Your Majesty, the minister has the responsibility of supervising hundreds of officials, so Lord Qin received 30,000 taels of gold from the prisoner's family, and the minister has to check it......"

What they have to do now is to admit their mistakes, don't provoke the emperor, and punish them when the time comes, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The emperor snorted: "That is also the crime of not investigating, without verification, you will criticize the ministers in the court, you are really getting more and more excessive now." ”

"Ministers know their mistakes......" These ministers admit their mistakes and have an impeccable attitude.

"Qin Ming is conscientious for the country and the people, and he solves the problem of food payment in the disaster area for me, and he personally judges the case and seeks justice for the people.

And what do you wait? Have you ever served the country and the people? Have you ever been worried about the king? I only know that I am deceived in the court, which is simply hateful! The Emperor said angrily.

He just took advantage of this opportunity to kill the arrogance of these ministers.

These ministers hurriedly kowtowed again: "Ask Your Majesty to atone for your sins, and the ministers will know their mistakes......"

"Hmph, it was Qin Ming who you framed this time, and you should admit your mistake to him." The Emperor said.

Yesterday, Qin Ming asked him to praise Qin Ming, he praised him, Qin Ming also pretended to succeed, and the ministers also suppressed it, so it depends on how Qin Ming deals with it.

So, these ministers looked at Qin Ming one after another and spoke together: "I misunderstood Lord Qin, and I ask Lord Qin to forgive ......."

Qin Ming took a deep breath, his face solemn.

Seeing him like this, those ministers' hearts sank to the bottom, thinking that Qin Ming would definitely not let them go......

But immediately after, I saw Qin Ming laughing.

This laugh, everyone laughing is inexplicable!
