On Xie Xun's carriage, Gao Guangning asked carelessly: "Grandpa, why did Your Majesty suddenly send us to the Summer Palace?" ”

"Your Majesty has returned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xie Xun said expressionlessly: "I just found out that Your Majesty was outside the Xuanhui Gate and was stopped by those victims yesterday to complain." ”

"Ahh Gao Guangning's face turned pale and said, "How could it be so coincidental?!" ”

"That's not what you should be concerned about." Xie Xun said coldly: "You still have to think about it, how to get past the current level." ”

"Grandpa, you must save me!" Gao Guangning begged with a face full of begging: "The lower officials have received it on behalf of others!" ”

"What are you panicking about?" Xie Xun looked at Gao Guangning unhappily and said, "It's not too much, I'm messing up first!" ”

"With the protection of the grandfather, the lower officials can have confidence!" Gao Guangning heard the meaning of Xie Xun's words, and said with relief: "Grandpa, don't worry, the lower officials will definitely not involve Xie Tian." ”

"Humph!" Xie Xun snorted coldly and ignored him. If it weren't for his grandson being too deeply involved, Xie Xun wouldn't care about Gao Guangning's bad things at all.

However, Xie Xun also knew that even if he didn't help, Gao Guangning wouldn't be able to do it, because he was Xiahou's loyal dog, and Xiahou Ba would not let people move his dog, even if the emperor wanted to!

。

After the tea effort, the people of Zhongshu Province went outside the city.

Seeing the black-pressed victims kneeling in front of the royal car, Shang Shu made Cui Yan's brows furrow, and he felt that something was wrong. But now it's too late to say anything, so I can only get out of the car quickly, and Xie Xun took Gao Guangning and Huang Yun, under the protection of the guards, to the Luan Yu of the Initial Emperor.

Among the victims, I don't know who shouted: "That is Gao Guangning!" ”

There were shouts of scolding, and some people threw soles and clods of dirt at them, although they were blocked by guards, so they didn't worry about being hit. But Gao Guangning is a second-grade Shangshu, and he was scolded in front of him, not to mention the taste of ecstasy.

It wasn't until they came to the Initial Emperor that the scolding gradually became smaller, Cui Yan and Xie Xun saluted respectfully to the Initial Emperor, and Gao Guangning and Huang Yun knelt in front of the Emperor.

"Rong Guogong," the initial emperor looked at Cui Yan expressionlessly, and asked in a deep voice: "These victims said that they went to Shangshu Province to file a complaint yesterday, and they were indiscriminately kicked out by you, and let people expel them from Beijing, is this true?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister went to inspect the river embankment a few days ago, and he just returned to Beijing this morning." Cui Yan shook his head and said slowly: "I don't know about these things, and I ask Your Majesty to give me some time to let the old minister find out." ”

"Then who was on duty in the province yesterday?" The Initial Emperor asked coldly.

"It's the old minister." Xie Xun replied with an embarrassed face. The three governors of Shangshu Province, in addition to Cui Yan and him, there are also right servants who shoot Xiahou without injury. However, a few days ago, Xiahou was not injured and was ordered to be suspended by his Lao Tzu for reflection, and Cui Yan was not there yesterday, so he was the only one who took the cylinder.

"Then please talk about it." The Initial Emperor glanced at Xie Xun.

"Back to Your Majesty, the first complaint should go to the Yushitai, there is no drum of grievances in front of the door of Zhongshu Province, and it is not a place to accept grievances." Xie Xun said in a deep voice: "Despite this, the old minister still allowed them to hand over the paper and wanted to convey it on their behalf." But they didn't have any papers in their hands, and they couldn't produce any evidence for a while, so they just blindly surrounded Shangshu Province and shouted and scolded, which greatly affected all ministries and made them unable to work normally. ”

"The old minister has to ask them to go back first, write the paper and hand it to the imperial history platform, even if it is okay to come back to the old minister." Xie Xun then said helplessly: "But they decided that Shangshu Province was protected by officials and officials, and they didn't listen to the officials' explanations at all, and later even wanted to impact the national politics of the imperial court. Later, the scene became more and more chaotic, and Jingzhao Mansion had to forcibly disperse the crowd to avoid causing death and injury. ”

Xie Xun's words were reasonable, and he was so loud that even the old men lowered their heads when they were said, obviously Xie Xun was not lying.

In the eyes of the kind-hearted old man, there were indeed people who were too irrational yesterday, who kept clamoring for the confrontation between the victims and the government, and even took action to beat the officials, which is really undeserved. As everyone knows, those guys who fan the yin wind and light ghost fires, fearing that the world will not be chaotic, are simply the chess pieces arranged by Zuo Yanqing!

They forgot that no matter how reasonable Xie Xun said, the truth is still on their side!

"Fu Guogong is very reasonable, what happened yesterday is right or wrong, don't care about it for the time being." The initial emperor would not be deceived by Xie Xun, and said lightly: "Rong Guogong, you said this matter, should Shangshu Province ask about it?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry is a subordinate of Shangshu Province, and Shangshu Province should take care of itself." Cui Yan replied softly.

"Okay, Fu Guogong, did you inquire about this matter today?" The Initial Emperor grasped the key point and asked in a cold voice.

"This ......" Xie Xun looked stunned and said in a low voice: "The old minister learned about this matter from Gao Shangshu today. ”

"Have you understood ......" the initial emperor sneered and asked, "What did he say?" ”

"He's right here, Your Majesty can ask him directly." Xie Xun hurriedly kicked the ball to Gao Guangning.

"Returning to Your Majesty," Gao Guangning said with sincere fear: "The design of the river embankment may be flawed, but there is absolutely no cutting corners, let alone private alteration of the design, these are archived in the Zhongshu Province and the Ministry of Households, please Your Majesty to investigate!" ”

"You're pushing clean!" The Initial Emperor sneered and said: "Yes, the flood has washed away the river embankment, as long as you do a clean job in your accounts, there is naturally no evidence." ”

"Your Majesty said this, Weichen only has one death to prove his innocence!" Gao Guangning straightened his neck and said proudly.

"Hahaha! Gao Shangshu is really brazen! The first emperor laughed loudly, and suddenly he smiled and snorted coldly: "You are so fearless, don't you just think that there is no right evidence?" As he spoke, he pointed to the countless victims and said, "There are countless pairs of eyes there that have witnessed your crime of cutting corners and changing the river privately, and you have to kill them all!" ”

"Your Majesty, the victims of the disaster have been instigated by others, and their words are inaccurate!" Huang Yun, who was behind Gao Guangning, shouted loudly.

When the initial emperor saw a small Dushui supervisor, he dared to roar in front of him, and when he was angry, he slapped the armrest of the couch heavily, and shouted: "Don't the widows believe in their own tens of millions of people, do they want to believe in you, a dog?!" Saying that, he pointed at Huang Yun and said in a deep voice: "Take off his official uniform and put on eighty canes first!" ”

The imperial guard responded suddenly, stepped forward and held down Huang Yun, divided five by two, and stripped him off. Then he fell to the ground, raised his staff, and struck!

After a few sticks, Huang Yun's flesh and blood flew sideways, and the screams were extremely terrible!

The ferocious court staff, the splashing blood, and the terrible screams all show the supremacy of the imperial power, which is awe-inspiring and inviolable!

Gao Guangning looked at Huang Yun's torture with a pale face, and really hoped that the two fathers could say a word, but Cui Yan's eyes were slightly closed, as if he couldn't bear to see the scene in front of him. Xie Xun's face was pale, but he clenched his teeth and kept his mouth shut without saying a word.

By the time the execution was over, Huang Yun had already fainted. The initial emperor ordered him to be imprisoned, and then turned his gaze to Gao Guangning and said: "Since your boss can't bear to check you, the widow has no choice but to overstep the line once!" As he spoke, he snapped and said, "Take him down too!" ”

A few imperial guards were about to step forward to get Gao Guangning.

"Your Majesty is angry," Xie Xun suddenly stopped in front of him, and clenched his fists and said to the Initial Emperor: "Gao Guangning is a second-grade Shangshu, according to my Daxuan law, it must be impeached by the Imperial History Tower, and after the trial of Dali Temple, Your Majesty can issue an order to arrest!" ”

Several imperial guards were in a dilemma for a while, they understood the emperor's determination, but standing opposite was the lord of Xie Valve!

"Hehe...... "The initial emperor glanced at Xie Xun sarcastically and said, "Did the widow say that he was going to arrest him?" ”

"This ......" Xie Xun was a little dumbfounded: "Your Majesty said that you want to take him down." ”

"The widow wants to let people take him to the palace for two days." The Initial Emperor said leisurely: "There is no provision in the Great Xuan Law, so the second-grade Shangshu can't accompany you, right?" ”

"This ......" Xie Xunden was dumbfounded, how could he have thought that the emperor would play word games with him, and he couldn't find a way to stop him for a while.

"What are you doing in a daze!" The Initial Emperor glanced at the guards unhappily, and several people hurriedly bypassed Xie Xun, walked in front of Gao Guangning, and said politely: "Lord Gao, please!" ”

Gao Guangning had no choice but to follow a few janissaries down.
