Chapter 175: Impeachment of Zhou An

The hall was quiet again.

Wu Xukuan frowned.

Lu Lian was stunned for a moment, he didn't react at once, his mouth moved, and he wanted to ask Zhou An why he could approve it, but he immediately thought of it...... Zhou An is the eunuch of the celebrant and the pen!

This is not Zhou An's main identity now, Zhou An's most important identity now, the first impression of the identity is the commander of the East Factory! He relied on this identity to go to the front line against Wu Xukuan.

The second is the eunuch who is the celebrant and the eunuch.

And this identity, although everyone knows it, is easy to ignore.

Of course, Lu Lian knew that Zhou An was the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, but this had nothing to do with today's plan, the most critical part of Lu Lian's impeachment of Kang Longji was criticized? If the plan is successfully implemented, the empress will admit in person that she approved it.

And even if it doesn't go well, the empress reacted and didn't admit that it was her own approval, and the blame should fall on Kang Longji.

Anyway, no matter what the outcome is, the empress will be burdened with stigma.

Lu Lian never thought that someone would jump out and completely disrupt this plan.

Because Zhou An jumped out too suddenly, and the verbal war was too urgent, he really subconsciously ignored it...... Zhou An is the eunuch of the celebrant and the pen!

In fact, Zhou An is the eunuch who can really approve the red on behalf of the empress, and Kang Longji is the eunuch with palm prints, and he is responsible for the second review and the printing of the seal.

The person who reads the folds and writes the comments is either the emperor or the eunuch who writes the pen.

So Zhou An said that he approved the excerpt, and there was no problem at all!

Now that Zhou An has taken the matter on himself, it is extremely dangerous for him personally, but he successfully took out both the empress and Kang Longji, and then it doesn't make much sense to talk about whether Kang Longji has been reviewed and sealed, or whether the empress knows it or not.

Because the only key is who the person who makes the fold is who is.

The rebellion of the Baijiang Army is to be blamed on this person, and it can only be blamed in this way.

Lu Lian didn't say anything for a while, and his thoughts were also in a hurry, although he thought of it at the first time, since Zhou An took the matter on himself, he could fire at Zhou An and mess with him, but what was the point of doing this? This is not in line with the purpose of Wu Xukuan's plan, Lu Lian must help Wu Xukuan achieve his goal, otherwise things will be messed up.

"What? Dumb? Zhou An stared at Lu Lian and said lightly, "Lord Lu, weren't you quite able to say it just now?" Why don't you say it? Didn't you say that what you said was true? I insist that the excerpt was approved by the general manager, and now we tell you that the excerpt is approved by our family...... You intend to blame the chief administrator for the rebellion of the Baijiang Army, what is this not slander? What are you not a thief and a thief who has slandered the chief ruler so much before the Holy One? It's a capital offense, you know? ”

"You! You're squirting blood! You, you are complicit! ”

Lu Lian was so excited that he almost jumped up, it was impossible for him not to be excited, if he didn't understand this matter, he would be the one who died the most!

Slandering the Hou Ye and slandering the ministers of Yipin is already terrible, and what is even more terrible is to make a fool of right and wrong in front of the emperor, if Lu Lian is convicted of bewitching the saint and harming Zhongliang, he will be punished by the Nine Clans!

Lu Lian's excited hands were shaking, he pointed at Zhou An, and then at Kang Longji, pointing back and forth,

"You're colluding! You! You Zhou An is Kang Longji's lackey, you are afraid that Kang Longji will be responsible, so you jumped out and said you, it must be! Lu Lian seems to have found the right idea.

He seemed excited, but in fact he was very calm, because he knew that the empress had approved it, but he didn't mention it, he didn't dare to say it, and as long as the empress denied it, he could directly ask someone to cut him! Slandering the empress is something that Wu Xukuan dares to do in this court, but Lu Lian does not dare.

However, the right way of thinking is useless.

"The excerpts of the household department involved a total of 5.6 million taels of silver, of which 1 million taels were to be used by the Baijiang Army to repair the camp, 1.5 million taels were to be used by 400,000 Zhongzhou soldiers to buy winter clothes, and the other three battalions were repaired, a total of 1 million taels were needed, 600,000 taels were needed to replace the old weapons, and 800,000 taels were needed to buy grain and grass for the return journey of the Sichuan River Army...... There are still some bits and pieces of expenses, totaling 300,000 taels, so we won't repeat them one by one, do you want our family to continue? Are you questioning our memory? ”

Zhou An's memory is really good, and he has not only read the excerpt, but also knows what the empress has approved.

As long as Lu Lian is willing, he can say it.

Lu Lian was scolded again and had nothing to say.

This matter is no longer clear, Zhou An insisted that he approved the excerpt, and it would be difficult for Lu Lian to pull the problem back to the empress or Kang Longji.

One point worth mentioning is that in Dongqian, eunuchs can use the word "朕" instead of the emperor to approve folds, and even imitate the emperor in handwriting.

Just because it's a substitute!

The eunuch approves the fold instead of the emperor, representing the emperor, and even to a certain extent, is "impersonating" the emperor, this kind of impersonation is allowed by the emperor, and only the emperor can approve the fold in legal theory, and the emperor is too busy or lazy to let the eunuch approve.

It is because of some historical reasons that the eunuchs of the celebrant gradually obtained the right to approve the excerpts.

This matter has great drawbacks, but this is not a problem of the Empress Shenzhao, after all, this is already a kind of "tradition", if you really investigate it, I am afraid it will have to be investigated more than two hundred years ago, but who dares to attack the emperors of the past dynasties?

Therefore, Lu Lian could not attack the empress on this issue, and he did not dare to question why the empress gave the right to approve the recital to the eunuchs.

And from the point of view of the excerpt itself, no matter who criticizes the excerpt, it is in the tone of the emperor, from this point of view, at present, Lu Lian can no longer deny it, and the excerpt is approved by Zhou An.

Be quiet.

Lu Lian's eyes flickered.

"Good! It turned out to be you! It's really you! Lu Lian suddenly shouted again, "You still dare to say that this official is a chaotic minister and thief, and this official sees you as a thief!" You are ashamed of the saints, and even more ashamed of the world...... Since you approved the excerpt, then the rebellion of the Baijiang Army was because of your ......"

This guy has no choice but to take this path and impeach Zhou An!

Compared with the impeachment of Kang Longji, although the impeachment of Zhou An is very useful, it is far less direct and effective than the impeachment of Kang Longji, although Zhou An is very important to the empress, no one can deny Zhou An's ability.

But impeaching Zhou An, the most important purpose is likely to be unattainable.

It's hard to put the empress on her back with stigma.

Because everyone knows that Kang Longji is the "patron saint" of the empress, whether it is from the emotional level or from the interest level, the empress will die to protect Kang Longji.

Zhou An is different.

If the responsibility is all on Zhou An, and Zhou An is irrefutable, then the empress only needs to cut Zhou An to break the game!

"Lord Lu!" Zhou An interrupted Lu Lian's words loudly, "Shouldn't you first explain your slander to the chief manager, and then talk about our family's problems...... Don't change the subject, don't you? ”
