Chapter 265: Clear
Chapter 265: Clear
As soon as the words of the Ministry of Rites came out, the government and the opposition were shocked, and for a while, the civil and military officials whispered. When the emperor heard this, he was even more furious.
"It's a bunch of nonsense, Aiqing must know, what kind of crime is it to slander the prince of a country!"
The emperor stood up and pointed to the nose of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and scolded.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites was neither humble nor arrogant, took out a piece of music from his sleeve and raised it respectfully above his head.
"The ministers are not talking nonsense, in this recital is the prince's crimes listed by the ministers, and please ask Your Majesty to learn clearly."
Seeing the resolute attitude of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the emperor also had doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, after all, the emperor's mental skills, how can others peep at it, but since there is a sparse performance, it doesn't hurt to take a look.
"Since you have a book to play, let's present it."
After the emperor finished speaking, he made a gesture and ordered the eunuch who was waiting on the side to take the fold in the hand of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
Seeing that the emperor was about to watch the recital, Murong Liang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, when he heard that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites came out to impeach him, Murong Liang had already started to play the drum in his heart, after all, he knew best in his heart whether he had done it or not, but he was afraid that this time it was really planted in their hands.
The eunuch respectfully handed the song to the emperor, and stood aside respectfully again, and the emperor took the song, and only looked at it twice, and his eyes were wide and angry.
In this recital, it was actually impeached that the crown prince Murong Liang had colluded with officials in private, sold iron and salt, and secretly collected money, and the number was huge, and the final recital also listed a list of officials who had been privately granted and received by the prince, which was as much as half a page.
Iron and salt should be uniformly dispatched by the state, and iron is related to the safety of the country, so private transactions are prohibited, as the prince of a country, he doesn't even understand this reason? The price of official salt is expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it, so they will choose to buy private salt, and the court will turn a blind eye, but it shouldn't be, how can the children of the royal family participate in it.
is already the prince of a country, why is he accumulating wealth like this, if he is just greedy for money, his vision is too shallow, but if he has other plans, thinking of this, the emperor's eyes are beginning to become dangerous, if there are other plans, he Murong Liang is already the prince, what is not satisfied!
What made the emperor even more angry was that in the list of friends with the crown prince, the officials of the six ministries actually participated! Did they eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall? Or are you afraid of the power of the prince?
The emperor was furious after reading the song, and smashed the song in his hand on Murong Liang's head, and Murong Liang's forehead was smashed with red marks.
"Bastard! See for yourself what good things you have done, it is really an eye-opener for me, the prince of a country actually collects wealth in private and contacts officials, are you dead! ”
Hearing this, Murong Liang's face turned white with a brush, and he quickly knelt down.
"The son is guilty, the son has no such intention, please ask the father to find out!"
"Discerning? This pile, piece by piece, is clearly written on the note, how can you quibble! Why don't you pick it up and see it yourself? ”
Where did Murong Liang dare to really pick it up and take a look, and quickly lowered his head.
"The son is guilty, please punish the father."
Seeing Murong Liang confess, most of the anger in the emperor's heart disappeared, although he was angry, he did not intend to abolish the crown prince, after all, the snow disaster in the north at this time was not a good time to cleanse the government and the opposition. It was only after a deathly silence that he spoke.
"The crown prince Murong Liang, the evidence of private wealth accumulation is conclusive, and he has lost the national body, and he will be imprisoned in the prince's mansion from today onwards, and he will not leave without a will."
"As for the money collected privately, all of it will be used in the national treasury for the relief of the snow disaster."
After listening to the will, Murong Liang's legs weakened and he sat down, but he quickly adjusted his posture and knelt to receive the holy decree.
"Son's order is grateful!"
Seeing that Murong Liang was taken down, the emperor had no intention of listening to the ministers' arguments anymore, and waved his hand to signal the eunuch beside him.
"Zhong Aiqing has a book to play, and no book to retreat."
"The ministers are leaving."
The ministers withdrew from the main hall, everyone had a ghost in their hearts, the prince had been imprisoned, what should be the next step.
On the other side, Murong Liang has been escorted back to the Prince's Mansion by the forbidden army, the Prince's Mansion has been locked, and the door is also guarded by the army.
Murong Liang sat in the study, holding a cup of tea in his hand, stunned, the tea was already cold, and he didn't even feel when someone came by him.
The secret guard walked up to Murong Liang and respectfully asked Murong Liang for his next plan.
"Master, what should we do next?"
Murong Liang had calmed down at this time, and he already had a plan in his heart.
"As long as my father has not abolished the crown prince, the palace will still have a chance, you step down first, and we must keep a low profile during this time."
"Yes."
The Dark Guard stepped back respectfully, not making a sound.
That's right, as long as Bengong is still the prince, there will be a day when he will turn over, heh, let me know who hurt me, I will definitely tear him apart, Murong Liang actually crushed the teacup in his hand, and the tea trickled down his fingers, leaving a tea stain.
"Cailian, what did you say? Murong Liang was imprisoned? ”
"It's true, the slave maid listened to the little eunuch who was on an errand in front of the emperor, saying that His Royal Highness the prince was impeached by hundreds of officials for privately collecting money, and the emperor was furious, and imprisoned the prince in the prince's mansion, and he was not allowed to go out without a will, it seems that he really got angry."
Luo Xiaoran was studying the herbs in his hand when he was shocked by Cai Lian's words. However, she also calmed down quickly, after all, Murong Jue is the real protagonist, and it is not surprising that Murong Liang is not surprised.
And thinking carefully about the plot in the book, Murong is afraid that he is about to start showing his talents, and this meeting should be smoother without the obstruction of his vicious female partner.
As for Murong Liang, the prince is also speechless when he comes to this, others don't know him, but Murong Liang is collecting money in order to better win over the minister, but after all, this move will affect the emperor's attitude towards him, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to turn over in the future.
But it's okay, it just saves him from harassing himself all the time, thinking about Luo Xiaoran in a happier mood.
"Cai Lian, help me bring that medicinal herb over there."
"Yes."
The master and servant once again tended to the herbs in a courtyard, and the changes outside the courtyard seemed to have nothing to do with them.
In the Empress Dowager's palace, Murong decided to be in the room.
"It's all done?"
Murong Jie's well-defined hand gently flipped through the pages of a book, and asked Xiao Xiazi who was standing on the side without raising his head.
"Don't worry, master, it's already done."
Xiao Natsuko replied respectfully on the side, not at all with the usual cowardly appearance.
Murong never replied, he knew that it was time to move on to the next step, and it was time for others to remember him. Murong Jue's eyes flashed with unprecedented determination.
The time has come, Mother Concubine, and the sons will definitely take back everything that should belong to us and wash away your grievances.
The pages were slammed shut, leaving only a figure at the desk to sway.
