"It's all damned," Zhao Kuangyin frowned and shouted: "Dakang, Dakang, there is no food to eat chaff!" How incompetent, I didn't let the country fall into this situation! ”

The emperor sat on the dragon chair and vented, his eyes widened, and the officials in the court did not dare to make a mistake when they heard the emperor's roaring voice, so they had to lower their heads even lower, facing the door and facing the ground, waiting for the emperor to finish venting.

"Okay, let's all get up, let's talk about how this matter should be resolved, right?"

Although Zhao Kuangyin is an emperor with a lot of problems, he is not a faint monarch, but he is just a little driven by his personality to develop in that direction, and now he still knows how to do the right thing.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After saying thank you, the ministers immediately stood up, straightened their clothes a little, and continued the court.

"Your Majesty, the minister has this to play!"

As soon as he stood firm, a person came out of the crowd and waved his hand towards Zhao Kuangyin and said.

"Wu Aiqing, if you have something, just say it."

Zhao Kuangyin looked up at this person, he was Wu Zehui, the imperial historian, so he waved his hand and said.

"Yes," after receiving the emperor's order, Wu Zehui waved his hands again and said: "Now there are rumors everywhere, which have greatly shaken the foundation of our dynasty, and the rumors are even more condemning, please Your Majesty thoroughly investigate the people who spread rumors." ”

"Yes, this matter will be handed over to the Capital Patrol Mansion to be responsible, and the case must be completed within ten days."

The Kyoto Patrol Mansion was set up specifically for the security of the capital, a bit similar to the Jinyi Guard of the Ming Dynasty, but the jurisdiction was smaller.

"In addition, Your Majesty, I am flooded in the south and drought in the north, and now there are rumors everywhere, I hope you can go to the Taimiao Temple to pray for blessings on the other day, so as to calm the hearts of the people!"

The feudal era is also an era of superstition, but it is a very important thing to pray for blessings in case of natural disasters and national disasters, and even in the peaceful period, it is necessary to worship the heavens, so Wu Zehui's request is also reasonable.

"This matter is also prepared, and it is scheduled that I will take the ministers to the Taimiao Temple to pray for blessings in three days."

Nodding again, Zhao Kuangyin will still choose to agree with the correct opinion and start to implement it.

Both proposals were agreed by the emperor, but Wu Zehui did not have the intention of choosing to stop, but continued to take a step forward, and continued: "Your Majesty, this incident originated from Hao Jian of Jiupin Zhi County, if you want to block the mouths of all the people in the world, the first thing to do is to deal with Hao Jian's people. ”

"Hao Jian? Dianyuan? Jiupin Zhi County? ”

Hearing these three titles, Zhao Kuangyin frowned, this title is so familiar, as if he had remembered it for a long time before.

"Your Majesty, it is Hao Jian, who fainted in the Jinluan Palace last year, the palace yuan was sealed by you personally, and the Jiupin Zhi County was also given by you!"

At this time, the eunuch who was beside him reminded Zhao Kuangyin in a low voice.

Regarding Hao Jian's name, it has been popular in the court for a long time, and Zhao Kuangyin has also been troubled by this name for a long time, in his eyes, Hao Jian belongs to the kind of villain who is mourned by others who is icing on the cake and sighs on the side, and belongs to the kind of person who does not want to see or hear the name.

Otherwise, according to Hao Jian's achievements, even if he is Dianyuan, he should study in the Hanlin Academy, and he will not send a Jiupin official position to a remote and small place. You must know that the post in the post station and the county in the yamen are also from the ninth grade, and Hao Jian is just so much higher than these temporary workers!

"I'm in my province," Zhao Kuangyin's facial expression changed obviously when he heard the name, and he sighed and scolded with a smile: "This kid is not destined to lack food, the five elements are hungry, and he fainted me again?" This time I happened to faint on my doorstep! ”

Hearing this, the Manchu officials couldn't help but smile, in this flashy and prosperous world, it is considered a talent to be hungry and faint twice, especially when he is the official of Jiupin Parents, it is still the same as this, and it is difficult for this person to leave a name in history.

"How to deal with it?"

After collecting the outlet, Zhao Kuangyin continued to ask Wu Zehui.

"Find out the facts and return justice to the people! When Chao Dianyuan fainted on the street with hunger, Jiupin was so broken that it was inevitable to be discredited, and only by investigating this matter could the fundamental problem be solved. ”

Wu Zehui is a minister in charge, and he is also a very wise person, and the things he put forward are very reasonable, which has attracted many people to nod their heads in agreement.

Touching his chin and looking at Wu Zehui, Zhao Kuangyin also knew that what this person said made sense, but when he thought of seeing Hao Jian's face again, Zhao Kuangyin seemed a little reluctant, and after struggling for a while in state affairs and feeling comfortable, Zhao Kuangyin nodded: "Yes!" ”

After winning the emperor's approval, Wu Zehui waved his hand and thanked him, and then returned to his position, waiting for the rest to play.

"Your Majesty, the minister has this to play!"

Before Wu Zehui could gain a firm foothold in his position, one person couldn't wait to walk into the team, waved his hand and said to Zhao Kuangyin.

After getting the emperor's permission, the man said: "Your Majesty, now Hao Jian is lying in the Prime Minister's Mansion, his life and death are not yet known, and his condition is not yet known, but as soon as Hao Jian entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, such rumors have been spread, which has to make people suspicious!" ”

Hearing this, Xu Benzhong raised his eyebrows and looked at the person who spoke, it was his sworn enemy, Zou Yukun, the head of the household department.

However, at this time, Xu Benzhong already had a plan in his heart, and looked at the appearance of Zou Yukun who was talking calmly, and then waited for the emperor's reply.

"Oh? What does Zou Aiqing mean that someone is playing ghosts here, there is a conspiracy? ”

Zhao Kuangyin was not stupid, he quickly heard the meaning inside, and then glanced at Xu Benzhong and said.

"Your Majesty doesn't dare, it's just that Hao Jian hasn't appeared until now, everything about Hao Jian is coming out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which has to make people suspicious!"

Zou Yukun glanced at Xu Benzhong with a smile and said.

At this time, all the eyes of the court were focused on Xu Benzhong's side, and Xu Benzhong also knew that he couldn't be silent any longer, so he frowned, and frowned with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, and the minister has something to hide about Hao Jian!" ”

After speaking, he knelt directly on the ground to show his solemnity Xu Benzhong even bowed to the ground with both hands, and his face was also close to the ground, making a five-body action to the ground, expressing his sincere remorse.

"Teacher, please get up, you can stand up and say something."

In addition to being the crown prince of the dynasty, Xu Benzhong is also the teacher of the current emperor, and his status is naturally a transcendent existence in the court, even the emperor does not dare to treat him slowly.

In fact, Hao Wei was not starved and fainted on Longxing Street, but was beaten and his tibia was broken, and the inner government was frustrated, so he fainted in front of the Weichen sedan chair. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Wei Chen announced to the public that Hao Jian was hungry, but he never thought that he would be used by someone with a heart as soon as this word came out. We're dying! ”

After speaking, Xu Benzhong knelt down again and bowed to Zhao Kuangyin.

Crash!

Now, the entire court suddenly became lively.

Beating the imperial court officials, and it is also the imperial seal of Jiupin Zhi County, this person must have great courage.

"Beaten?"

Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin also frowned.

Whether it is a few officials, they are the face of Dakang, not to mention that Hao Jian is still the emperor's edict, it is even more of a face, and now he has been beaten, and listening to Xu Benzhong's words, it seems that the injury is not light!

"Yes, it hurts the five organs and affects the bones. Fortunately, the treatment is timely, and now there is no major problem, just rest in bed! ”

Xu Benzhong continued.

"Hmph, this group of people is really too bold. I wonder who is so bold as to be so cruel to my courtiers, and I will not spare them! ”

Zhao Kuangyin frowned and glanced at the ministers, and said coldly.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to investigate. The minister has already asked Hao Jian to understand that the person who beat Hao Jian is Li Yuankui, the younger brother of Li Daozheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the son-in-law of Zou Yukun, the servant of the household department! ”

Xu Benzhong also said less about the godson of Wang Tong, the eunuch of the court, because this Wang Tong is currently Zhao Kuangyin's current celebrity, and now Xu Benzhong doesn't want to have a bad relationship with Wang Tong, so he hid the relationship between Wang Tong and Li Yuankui.

Poof

Hearing this, Zou Yukun and Li Daozheng knelt directly on the ground: "Weichen should die!" ”

"Li Daozheng, Zou Yukun. I ask you, is there such a thing? ”

Looking at the two kneeling on the ground, Zhao Kuangyin glanced at them, and then slowly asked.

"Your Majesty, I have also learned about my brother's affairs, and it is true that Hao Jian was injured by my brother, but all of this is due to a reason!"

In today's plan, Li Daozheng is responsible for shouting grievances, while Zou Yukun is responsible for framing Xu Benzhong, with a clear division of labor, but Zou Yukun was resolved by Xu Benzhong as soon as he made a move, and now he has fallen behind, so he has to continue to cry out for grievances.

"What's wrong?"

The corners of Zhao Kuangyin's mouth twitched, and he asked a few people in the audience with a very reluctant expression.

"That Hao Jian touched the minister's brother three hundred taels of silver, and the human and material evidence were all there at that time, and the minister's brother was just a scholar at Hao Jian and didn't study deeply, so he let them go. But who knew that Hao Jian saw that my brother was easy to bully, so he gathered more than ten people to make a move on his brother, but fortunately, the brother was vigilant, and the heroes did not let Hao Jian succeed. But even so, the younger brother did not kill him, and it was not until yesterday that the younger brother knew Hao Jian's identity. The ministers are wronged, Your Majesty, the ministers are really wronged! ”

Li Daozheng said as he wiped his tears.

For a while, the entire court became silent, and everyone frowned and watched Li Daozheng's performance.

Who is living in the capital who doesn't know what Li Yuankui has done, how can he be so generous? Ghost believes!

"What you say is true?"

Zhao Kuangyin frowned and asked Li Daozheng.

"The minister dares to guarantee with his life that what the minister said is true!"

At this time, Li Daozheng himself must say so.

"It's strange over there, there are two ways to say it for a while, so who should I trust?"

In the face of such a statement, Zhao Kuangyin was embarrassed, the two statements were diametrically opposed, although he was the Son of Heaven, it was difficult to decide, I am afraid that the saint would also be embarrassed here.
