Chapter 190: The Dust Settles

The morning of the next day was very calm at first. The agenda is proceeding in an orderly manner, and there is no smell of gunpowder in the quarrels of the past. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were absentmindedly waiting, waiting for the results of the matter of guarding Chen Yue in Xishan.

Soon, Jin Yiwei commanded Wu Mengming to go out of the class, reported the results of his investigation, and told the story of Wu Keming, the son of Gongshun Hou Wu Weiying, who instructed his subordinates to assassinate Chen Yue, and the human and material evidence were there, and then Wu Keming personally led people to kill the witnesses at night, which made this matter even more conclusive.

The ministers in the court were silent about the series of evidence listed by Wu Mengming, and Zhang Xin, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Ling Yiqu, the secretary of the Dali Temple, also did not say a word, and did not have any objections to Jinyiwei leading the case. And in the hearts of most civil officials, what they hate the most is this method of assassination. What means should naturally be used in the court, whether it is a conspiracy to frame him, or a knife in the back, everyone can do it according to their ability, and assassination is too dirty! If everyone uses this method, then all officials will no longer feel safe. Therefore, most of the civil officials were disgusted with Wu Keming, the son of the Hou Shizi, who broke through the bottom line of everyone, and no one tried to speak for him.

Chongzhen was furious when he heard the result, ordered Wu Keming to be imprisoned, and vigorously reprimanded Wu Weiying's godson Wufang, and deposed him from the title of Marquis of Gongshun.

Since Chen Yue's brutal killing of passers-by is nothing, then the matter of rewarding meritorious deeds and being promoted to an official position is logically mentioned.

But when Chongzhen was about to give an order and announce the proposed reward for Chen Yue, Yu Shi suddenly jumped out, and it was still the annoying military department that gave the matter to Zhongguang Shiheng.

"The military department gave the matter to Guang Shiheng, impeached Princess Kunxing and Xishan Bingbei Dao Chen Yue for colluding to open a coal yard and compete with the people for profit!" Guang Shiheng's words surprised Chongzhen, he couldn't believe his ears, how could he dare to hit his daughter with his idea, he simply regarded me as nothing!

However, Guang Shiheng's words were like hailstones, thrown at Chongzhen one after another. In the chapter, Princess Kunxing went out of the palace privately and met Chen Yue, who was still a military household, and then started a honeycomb coal business together, and later Chen Yue relied on the royal power to squeeze out other coal yards to dominate the entire Beijing coal market, and later Kunxing went out of the palace many times and Chen Yue's private meeting was described in detail.

In the whole chapter, although it was only the impeachment of Chen Yue and Kun Xing, the image of a princess who secretly went out of the palace without rules and had a private meeting with a strange man jumped on the paper, which made Chongzhen extremely embarrassed At the same time, it also made the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty secretly talk about it. And a princess who is not out of line has an affair with a foreign minister, this kind of thing is really a bit appalling.

"You, you are bold, you dare to slander Kunxing!" Chongzhen's face was flushed with anger, and when he pointed to the light, Heng was trembling and speechless. 's own daughter, a dignified princess, her entire privacy was revealed, which made Chongzhen feel disgraced. And Chongzhen's heart is even more worried, Kun Xing is his most beloved daughter, this matter spreads, how can she see people?

"The minister is willing to vouch for the head, what he said is true, and there is no lie!" Guang Shiheng knelt at the foot of the stairs, buried his head deep in the ground, and his body trembled slightly. offended Princess Kunxing and greatly swept the emperor's face, and even a bold person like him was also frightened. But his grip on someone else's hand, coupled with the huge amount of silver taels, made him have to do so.

Chongzhen was angry, embarrassed, and angry, but found that Guang Shiheng was helpless to take this order, because Guang Shiheng was a speech official, and he could hear about it, and it was his duty to play impeachment. And Da Ming has never had a tradition of killing officials, if he ordered Guang Shiheng to be taken down today, the entire court would be in chaos. And under the current situation, Chongzhen can no longer withstand the chaos of the court.

Chongzhen closed his eyes, gasping violently in his chest, and forced himself to suppress his anger. I'm thinking about how to deal with this.

Since Guang Shiheng proposed impeachment, it has to be dealt with, and if it drags on, if Guang Shiheng and more officials are impeached one after another, how can his daughter resist this kind of rumor attack again and again? And the damn Chen Yue, since he has been impeached, the matter of taking office has to continue to drag on, and he can't go to office.

Thinking of that damn Chen Yue, Chongzhen was suddenly annoyed, it was all this dog thing, he dared to hook up with his daughter, think about Kun Xing, what a filial and well-behaved child! At this moment, Chongzhen actually had murderous intentions towards Chen Yue!

"Your Majesty, there are so many incidents caused by the small honeycomb coal, and the old minister thinks that although this honeycomb coal is hugely profitable, it is not suitable for the royal family." Looking at the emperor with a blue face, Shoufu Chen Yan couldn't help but stand up and speak, if Chongzhen was angry and ordered to kill Guang Shiheng, his Shoufu would really have no light on his face, and then the court would inevitably be in chaos, and it was not what he wanted to see.

As the first assistant, the sea has been up and down for decades, Chen Yan naturally knows the key to the matter, it is nothing more than a conflict of interests, the people behind this light Shiheng don't want to see the honeycomb coal fall into the hands of the royal family, and want to get a piece of the pie, so he took Princess Kunxing as a felling, and Emperor Chongzhen took care of face, and he didn't have the face to return the honeycomb coal to the palace.

"As for that Chen Yue, his misconduct and reckless personality are not suitable for serving as a feudal official like the governor of Jizhen, Your Majesty has to appoint him carefully." Since Chen Yue is involved, Chen Yue must be punished, so that this matter can be covered up.

Chen Yan's words did not mention Princess Kunxing at all, which made Chongzhen sigh, this matter is settled, as for honeycomb coal, even if he brings him a large sum of silver every month, he does not want to be contaminated again, as for the damn Chen Yue, he still sent him far away, and from now on he is out of sight and out of mind!

"Yuanfu, Chen Yue has just made a great contribution, how can he be punished for a trivial matter, how can he make the soldiers feel at ease!" Li Banghua, the imperial history of Zuodu, couldn't help it, stepped forward, and shouted at Chen Yan.

"Brother Meng, don't worry, I just said that Chen Yue is not suitable to be the governor, and he doesn't have much to do," Chen Yan naturally knew Li Banghua's appreciation of Chen Yue, and said with a smile: "Chen Yue is just a twenty-year-old young man, and it is really a bit of a feudal official like the governor of a town, but it is still possible to be a garrison officer of a city." But when he makes another meritorious service, the official position of governor and governor will be a matter of course. ”

"It's decided, let Chen Yue go to Qingshikou to be a guard!" Chongzhen said categorically, at this moment, he never wanted to hear Chen Yue's name again.
