Chapter 138: Leaving in a rage
Although the prince's exit was a bit sudden, which surprised the officials, it was not unacceptable.
After all, since the rejuvenation of the Mo Emperor, everyone realized that there would be such a day, but they didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Still, others won't stop there.
After all, a prince has withdrawn, and since the vacated position is about to be replaced, this makes the hearts of the five princes and the seventh prince feel hot.
The opportunity is rare, so you should take down Mu Shaojun.
Because only by taking him can they become the beneficiaries of the farce of the imperial examination and get the support of the scholars of the world.
Only by putting the blame on him Mu Shaojun and letting the people in the world find a place to vent their anger can they not be so incompetent.
Otherwise, the lives of thousands of candidates will definitely cause a shock in the literary world, if they don't do anything, how can they buy the hearts of the people in the world and use them for their use.
Mo Wenxuan looked sadly at the enthusiasm that suddenly surged below because of the deposed prince.
If these officials have such enthusiasm in governing the country and security, why worry about the injustice of the world and the failure of the great cause.
"Your Majesty, the minister does not know what is planned in the secret letter. I only know that the top priority is to give an explanation to the people of the world and to the families of all the candidates who died tragically. Mu Shaojun was the chief examiner who presided over the scientific examination, and the examination room was attacked, and the candidate died tragically. As the chief examiner, he should be blamed. I beg your Majesty to punish him for the crime of dereliction of duty and unfavorable work. Remove him from his official position, put him in prison, and wait to investigate whether the attack on the Tribute House was caused by his dereliction of duty, and then convict him!"
An official from the camp of the Seven Princes directly stood up, ignoring Mu Tong's words that he wanted to prove his innocence, and directly admonished Mo Wenxuan, asking him to issue an edict to condemn him.
The meaning of the people is very clear and rude.
No matter what reason you Mu Tong has and what plan you have, people die there, in order to give an explanation to the people in the world, you Mu Shaojun is the main person, so you have to take the blame!
"How do you know that this is because of me, my lord? As I said, the cause of the incident was because of the secret letter......"
Mu Tong's words were interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"Lord Mu, this official doesn't care whether he believes in secrets or not. This official position knows that you are the person in charge that day, since the traitor Li Kuang led his troops to attack and kill the Gongyuan and killed countless officials and candidates, why did you survive alone. There is no reason why Li Kuang will let you go as an important person, not to mention that the lower officials have heard that Li Kuang has a personal enmity with you, and it is impossible to let you go, unless ......"
"Unless what?" Mu Tong asked, looking at the counselor with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Unless you and the traitor Li Kuang are in the same group, he will deliberately let you go! You two act together and kill the pillars of my Mohai!"
"Presumptuous!"
As soon as the official said bluntly, Mo Wenxuan above couldn't sit still!
Others don't know what is written in the secret letter, but he himself doesn't know? It is precisely because he knows the content of the secret letter that he cannot tolerate these people framing Mu Tong for their own selfishness.
Now that the enemy is currently in the dark, the traitor Li Kuang has not yet subdued the law, and this group of people has already begun to eliminate dissidents.
A group of selfish and selfish people who couldn't distinguish between priorities and urgency, Mo Wenxuan couldn't listen to it anymore, and had to speak out to stop this farce.
"That's enough! Come on, don't distinguish between right and wrong, and frame the loyal and good people down!"
Mo Wenxuan walked down the steps directly, came to Mu Tong, looked at the hundred officials, and said, "You are really disappointed in me. Don't you have the slightest tolerance? You don't even give Mu Qing's family a chance to defend themselves. Well, then I tell you. The attack on the Gongyuan was expected by me, and I didn't even lay an ambush to wipe out the traitors, but I underestimated the strength of the traitors, and I didn't expect that the identity of the traitors would actually be the princes of my Mohai Kingdom! It was my conceit that harmed many officials and candidates. Mu Shaojun is guilty of something. He's just doing what he's told. As early as a month ago, we learned from the secret letter that there was a group of rebels hidden in the royal capital, who wanted to sabotage the imperial examination in order to achieve certain goals. As for the purpose, I won't reveal it until I find out who is behind it. ”
"Therefore, it is not allowed to blame the Mu Qing family for the matter of the Tribute Academy. ”
Mo Wenxuan's sudden maintenance caught the officials off guard.
However, Mo Wenxuan overestimated his influence, and there were still those who were not afraid of death to stand up against him.
"Your Majesty, that's not what I said. As the saying goes: there are no rules, there is no circle. The minister didn't know what secret order the young monarch had received to act. But there is absolutely no reason to sacrifice all candidates to trap thieves. Therefore, the heavy casualties in the Gongyuan are difficult for Lord Shaojun to take the blame and cannot be involved. What's more, Li Kuang and Mu Shaojun were originally in-laws, and the minister had reason to suspect that Li Kuang and Mu Shaojun had colluded. Otherwise, Li Kuang was a Heavenly Master-level martial artist, with strong strength and thousands of soldiers, how could he let Mu Shaojun retreat unscathed. There must be fraud in it, so I have to guard against it!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, the top priority is to take it down, interrogate it strictly, and if it is really the traitor Li Kuang who has nothing to do, he can return his innocence. But if you can't get rid of the Li thief, when the time comes, not only will the two crimes be one, but he will also be beheaded by the Mu family. To comfort the souls of the dead in heaven!"
"Hahaha! Okay! What a soul in heaven to comfort the dead! This lord is really righteous Ling Ran! Even His Majesty doesn't believe it. The six Shangshu books are proof, Your Majesty personally said that I am not guilty, and you still want to behead my Mu family! Okay! Okay! Okay! My Mu Tong has seen the open and secret battles in this officialdom!"
Mu Tong laughed angrily, bowed to Emperor Mo beside him, and said, "Your Majesty, since the hundred officials have determined that I am guilty, it is useless for me to quibble. I also ask Your Majesty to allow me to retire first. If Your Majesty really wants to condemn me, you can send someone to Dongcheng Muyuan to get me. Retire!"
Mu Tong made his words clear, ignoring the unpredictable expressions of the hundred officials, and ignoring Mo Wenxuan's embarrassed expression, he walked straight towards the outside of the main hall.
Along the way, there was also Zhi Jinwu who wanted to stop him, but was waved back by the Mo Emperor.
"Stop, let him go. ”
"Mu Aiqing, don't worry, I will definitely give you justice. ”
Mo Wenxuan's face was calm, looking at Mu Tong's distant figure and reassuring.
Mu Tong paused, but shook his head and laughed twice.
"Hehe, justice? Why do ministers need justice? Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, and what can be given by others! Such justice, don't do it! Don't do it! Don't do it! I don't know the head of the national disaster, and I want to fight for power and profit! Your Majesty, what is the use of such a court! It is better to go back, it is better to return!"
"Presumptuous!"
"Your Majesty, such arrogant people, how can they be righteous if they don't kill them!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
......
In the end, Mu Tong didn't care about what the court was saying.
There are human witnesses in the harem, and Mo Wenxuan has physical evidence in his hands, but he can't withstand the deliberate slander of hundreds of officials.
How can such a court govern the country.
Mu Tong died of his heart, no wonder his father would rather be a rich man in Black Dragon City than participate in the court dispute.
This upside-down black and white court, don't stay!
