Chapter 224: Cui Chen can't come back

Jiang Ci, who was on the side of Wei Qiao, watched the movements of the two, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Yushitai has always been controlled by the Fu family, from Lin Fengzheng's predecessor to today's Niu Yilang, it can be said that it is extremely difficult for outsiders to interfere in Yushitai. All of these people controlled the Imperial Observatory to the death, and even he did not fully control the Imperial Court now.

Remembering that Wei Qiao and Niu Yilang had been having some mysterious conspiracy recently, Jiang Ci looked at Cui Chen and couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

Fight back, Wei Qiao is going to fight back. And the target of the counterattack is Cui Chen, the middle core person of their circle!

Jiang Ci wanted to stop it, but he didn't know what Wei Qiao's firepower was, and he wanted to remind Cui Chen, but he was so far away, there was no way at all, so he could only be secretly anxious in his heart.

And Liu Zhengxu, who was standing behind, looked at Yuan Zhe who was dragged away, and his heart palpitated. Thinking of what Lin Fengzheng gave him, he could only smile bitterly in his heart. The word 'Fu' has been typed into him, but he can't shirk this request.

After settling down, Liu Zhengxu took out the fold from his sleeve, and when Yuan Zhe dragged him out of the palace gate, he strode out and said in a deep voice, "The minister has this music." ”

Emperor Wenzheng's face was expressionless, as if his anger had not subsided, and he said lightly: "Say." ”

Liu Zhengxu waited for the chamberlain to pick up the excerpt, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Jinling Mansion has recently received reports one after another, saying that a person named Cui Tianming is rampant in Jinling and is doing evil. The ministers ordered someone to investigate, and found that this person was really bold and reckless, not only forcibly seized in Jinling, forcibly robbed the people's daughters, and even did the deeds of killing people and stealing goods. The minister was about to order someone to arrest but found that this person was missing, and finally, someone told the minister that Cui Tianming was the son of Cui Chen Cui, and the minister had no right to decide the three ranks, so he implored the holy judge. ”

Cui Chen's expression changed as soon as he heard the words 'Cui Tianming', and when he heard it, his face immediately turned blue.

Regardless of whether his son really committed so many things, this matter is essentially Wei Qiao's counterattack against him! What Jinling Mansion has no right to determine the three-rank master, this is simply an excuse, it is nothing more than to stab this matter to the court and catch him off guard.

Cui Chen thought about it for a while, and finally settled down, and came out with a solemn expression, bowed down and said, "......"

"Emperor Qi" Cui Chen hadn't opened his mouth yet, Ye Fatzi suddenly stood up, he bowed down and said: "Recently, Caoyun also received a report, saying that there is a Cui Tianming who is depressing the price of goods at various wharves, collecting low and selling high for huge profits, and the officials went to stop it, but all of them were beaten by this Cui Tianming and others, and they were pushed into the river for an hour and not allowed to go ashore!" This Cui Tianming is really bold and reckless, there is no king's law, and the minister implores the emperor to punish him severely! ”

Ye Fatzi didn't have more than a few years to read, and now he memorized such a long sentence in one breath, and he had to match his expression and speak fluently, which was really embarrassing for him.

When Cui Chen heard this, his face immediately sank, and he didn't care about anything else, he immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The emperor ...... play"

"Your Majesty, the ministers have their own music." As soon as Cui Chen spoke, Shi Yanqiu, who had received the hint, immediately stood up, bowed to the emperor and hugged his fists and said: "The Criminal Department has also received a similar case, and this Cui Tianming actually bought the officials of the Criminal Department to cover it up, and this was accidentally discovered by the minister when he was sorting out the old files. This Cui Tianming really does all kinds of evil, whether it is in Jinling or in the south, he is a person full of evil, and the minister implores the emperor to arrest him. ”

Wei Qiao and Niu Ichiro glanced at each other, and both nodded and smiled.

And Wu Fangyuan and the others were surprised, Wei Qiao also learned too fast, they just performed a handful, and Wei Qiao took it and used it again.

Cui Chen now realizes that it is not good in his heart, these things are eighty percent true, otherwise these people would not talk about things one after another. And he didn't say hello to Ling Chong and them, now they are all people who have just been replaced, and the cooperation is not tacit enough, and now his future is uncertain, and these things are clear-sighted, I'm afraid those people don't dare to stand up at all, right?

Cui Chen had all thoughts in his heart, his eyes flashed rapidly, and he hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "The emperor is gracious, it is the ministers who are not strict in discipline, and the lower officials will definitely take that son to the criminal department to surrender when they go back, and they will not tolerate it!" I also asked the emperor to be gracious and give the minister a chance to remedy. ”

"Your Majesty," as soon as Cui Chen's voice fell, Chang Zhi stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Lord Cui is conscientious in the place, and it is inevitable that he will be negligent in the discipline of his family, so he thinks that he will let Master Cui go back and take Cui Tianming to the criminal department to surrender, and then hand it over to Dali Temple for decision." Moreover, this is a case, and the minister thinks that it should not be brought to the court. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal" Yan Yi hurriedly stood up and said: "The minister implores the emperor to give Lord Cui a chance to make amends for the sake of Lord Cui's years of hard work and outstanding political achievements!" ”

"The minister seconded the proposal." After Yan Yi finished speaking, Ling Tang Ling Chong and several others also stood up. They didn't mention Cui Tianming's own problems, they all stood on Cui Chen's hard work and hard work, out of humanitarian help.

Seeing that everything that jumped out was almost over, Wei Qiao and Niu Yilang glanced at each other, stood up in Jiang Ci's face full of panic, hugged his fists and bowed down: "Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Cui's mansion in the south covers an area of thousands of acres, worth millions, and there are more than 20 concubines, tens of thousands of fertile fields, at least 30 dishes for each meal, winter ice in summer, brocade quilts in winter, life is very luxurious, and it costs more than 100,000 taels ......of silver in a month."

Cui Chen almost vomited blood when he heard this, even if he had a little money, he didn't reach the point where Wei Qiao said so exaggeratedly, and hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "The emperor Mingjian, the minister ......"

"Emperor Qi" Niu Yilang unceremoniously interrupted Cui Chen's words, and stood up and said with a solemn face: "The minister has already gone to see it in person, Lord Cui's mansion in Jinling covers an area of 800 acres, with rockery fish ponds and gorgeous beautiful houses, according to the minister's calculations, it is worth at least one million taels." According to the calculation of Lord Cui's annual salary of 190 taels, Lord Cui must be an official for at least 50 years, and he can only buy this mansion without eating or drinking. ”

When the courtiers heard this, they immediately whispered. It is naturally impossible not to eat or drink, so there is only corruption and bribery.

Cui Chen gritted his teeth, he had the heart to kill, this house was given by King Jin!

But you can't say it in the morning, it doesn't matter if you're a friend, there's no evidence anyway. But if you say it, the surname has changed, what does a prince do when he gives a minister a mansion of one million taels? What do you want to do when the minister makes friends with the prince? Could it be that he is plotting against him and wants to rebel?

But when Yu Shi Typhoon heard about it, he didn't say that what they said was justified and well-founded, even if it was nonsense, he could only endure it.

"Your Majesty," without waiting for Cui Chen to speak, Liu Cong stood up and bowed down and said: "The minister thinks that no matter whether Lord Cui is really greedy or not, but Cui Tianming is really perverting the law, since this is the case, it should be investigated, and the guilt and conviction just prove that Lord Cui is innocent, so the minister suggests that it is best to check it." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal" Yun Fei also stood up, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, now this Cui Tianming is already angry and resentful, and not killing is not enough to make the people angry, and Lord Cui is also implicated, if you don't investigate, it will inevitably make others think that this is instigated by Lord Cui and made a scapegoat." Therefore, whether it is for the sake of the face of the court or the innocence of Lord Cui, the minister thinks that it should be investigated, and it should be thoroughly investigated. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

Soon, many ministers stood up and nodded in favor of the agreement.

"The old minister opposes" Suddenly, in a seconded voice, Tang Yan, who was standing in front, stood up, clenched his fists and said to Emperor Wenzheng: "Your Majesty, Lord Cui has worked hard in the south, and now there have been so many things in Jinling in a few days, and the old minister thinks that this is a person with a heart to frame Zhongliang and have bad intentions." Cui Tianming's case is just a trivial matter, and the minister suggested that the case should be handed over to the Criminal Department for handling, and there is no need to work hard to mobilize the public. ”

Every pavilion elder is very important, and their opinions should be carefully considered even by Huang Yanjing, so generally when the cabinet elder speaks, Huang Yanjing will agree.

As soon as Cui Chen heard Tang Yan open his mouth to save him, he immediately cast a grateful smile, and the hanging heart in his heart was quietly put back.

"Chen thinks it's better to check, after all, most of my colleagues now support what should be checked, and I can't chill the hearts of all colleagues." After Tang Yan spoke, Fu Mingzheng behind him suddenly stood up, clenched his fists and bowed towards the emperor.

The weight of Fu Ming's words is much heavier than Tang Yan's, not because of his status as a cabinet elder, but because his father is the head of the cabinet, and he is full of words in the cabinet, and his words, even Gao Qi must seriously consider one or two.

Originally, Cui Chen's heart was suddenly hung up again, and he looked at Fu Mingzheng with a shocked face, and at this moment he suddenly remembered that Wei Qiao's body was actually marked with the word 'Fu' from the beginning.

Tang Yan frowned slightly, he never expected that Fu Mingzheng would stand up in the court to speak for Wei Qiao. You must know that the elders of the Great Qi Cabinet respect their own identities, and there are very few disputes in court discussions, not to mention that the identity of the seventh-ranked cabinet elders is extraordinary.

And the courtiers were also surprised at this time, the battle between Cui Chen and Wei Qiao actually led to two elders!

"Then check it out, the three halls of the Jinling Mansion of the Imperial History Terrace of Dali Temple will be tried." Zhou Yanzhao's eyes glanced at Tang Yan and Fu Mingzheng lightly, and seemed to be dissatisfied with the two, and after speaking, he stood up and said, "Retreat." ”

As soon as the sound of 'retreating' fell, Cui Chen's face was immediately full of ashes, and he fell to the ground paralyzed.

Dali Temple is Shao Yi's territory, he is a member of the Fu family, and he is very close to Wei Qiao; Yushitai is Niu Yilang Weiqiao's world, Jinling Mansion is Liu Zhengxu, and it is also inseparable from Fu Jiaweiqiao, this time not to mention that his butt is not clean, even if it is clean, I am afraid that he will be thrown into a ball of yellow mud into the crotch of his pants at that time, not shit is shit!

And the other courtiers looked at Wei Qiao and shuddered in their hearts, everyone could see that this Cui Chen would not come back. More well-connected people understand in their hearts that Yuan Zhe's matter is probably not without the shadow of Wei Qiao behind it!

One morning, two third-grade officers were fired at once.
