Xia Qing was a little unsure of the emperor's meaning at this time, could it be that the emperor really wanted to thoroughly investigate the matter?

"Your Majesty! Even if Weichen didn't know before, Weichen couldn't escape the blame, and asked the emperor to punish him! ”

Although Xia Qing was worried in his heart, he was afraid that the emperor would attack him by taking advantage of this matter. But he is also gambling, the emperor did not attack him before, and he will not do it now.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that if this matter is true, then this person must not be tolerated. Looted so many silver taels, even the Jiu clan did not hesitate. ”

Shen Shikang saw that Xia Qing admitted it himself, could he still seize this opportunity and let Xia Qing eat the first meal?

Xia Qing frowned when he heard this, this Shen Shikang is like a dog skin plaster, and he can't shake it off.

Punish the nine clans, do you want to send him down? The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, so let's talk about it.

The eldest prince did such a wrong thing, and he didn't see any punishment from the emperor.

Although he is not a prince, he is also Xia Shoufu who leans towards the government and the opposition, this Shen Shikang is so naïve that he thinks that he can take advantage of this matter to defeat him, but it is really whimsical.

When the emperor heard this, he also twitched.

"This matter really can't be tolerated, but since Xia Aiqing can kill his relatives in righteousness, I can't help but give him a chance. Xia Aiqing has been an official for many years, and it is because of her hard work and high achievements, I am not the kind of person who does not miss the old love. The matter will be confirmed before a final conclusion is made. ”

When Xia Qing heard this, the big stone in his heart fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is ashamed of you!"

Suddenly, the discussion in the court was louder than before.

Some officials were very angry, and the emperor was too partial.

That's 800,000 taels of silver! A small county prince dared to loot so many silver taels, if he only used such a false name, how could those people believe him?

The truth behind this is obvious, but they are soft-spoken, and the low-level officials who impeached Xia Qing did not end well.

Over time, no one dared to impeach. Occasionally, some officials don't open their eyes, and the excerpt of impeachment can't reach the emperor.

The second and third rank officials all wanted to protect themselves, and no one was willing to offend Xia Qing openly. That's it, everyone is covering it now. Although they know it, they should not know about it.

What's more, the emperor trusts him very much, and the officials don't want to do useless work anymore, and they also affect themselves.

Jiang Mingyuan looked at Xia Qing, who was kneeling in front of him, crying, and couldn't help but admire Xia Qing's ability to bend and stretch.

In front of these subordinate officials, Xia Qing actually showed his old face and cried with a handful of snot and tears, which really impressed him.

"Where is Yin Kun, the right deputy capital of the Inspectorate?" The emperor suddenly shouted, startling Yin Kun, who was contemplating.

His heart sank, and he hurriedly stepped out, "The minister is here!" ”

"I ordered you to go to Yingnan Mansion to investigate this matter thoroughly, and once it is verified, Xia Xuan will be detained first, and all the proceeds from the seizure of the house will be confiscated into the treasury. If there are a lot of officials involved, wait until you make it clear to me, and then make a decision! ”

"Obey the order!" Yin Kun thought in his heart, if he was widely implicated at this time, then he was afraid that this person would have to be sent to Dali Temple for trial.

"As an official of the imperial court, it is really an unforgivable crime to dare to be corrupt and pervert the law. I am determined to eliminate harm for the people, and return the people of Yishui County and those businessmen to a peaceful and prosperous world. The emperor slapped the armrest and said indignantly.

The officials hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "The emperor is wise! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

Xia Qing had some ominous premonitions in his heart, Yin Kun didn't have much contact with him, he was upright, and what he cared about the most was that this person was Liang Zhirui's eldest disciple.

Xia Qing's face was a little ugly, and he felt that he had lost face in front of Liang Zhirui.

It seems that Xia Xuan can't stay, Yin Kun, as a disciple of Liang Zhirui, of course knows that he has a bad relationship with Liang Zhirui.

What's more, the main reason for Liang Zhuruizhishi before was because of him. Therefore, it was impossible for him to hand over Xia Xuan to Yin Kun.

If Yin Kun took this opportunity to seize his handle, wouldn't it be more troublesome in the future?

Xia Qing had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and Yin Kun was also muttering in his heart.

Ying Nanfu was the second son-in-law of his teacher, and the emperor ordered him to go to Ying Nanfu to verify the matter, and he must also investigate whether those officials were involved in the matter.

And his relationship with the teacher's second son-in-law, it is impossible for the emperor not to know. Why didn't you think about avoiding suspicion?

Yin Kun thought about the emperor's previous attitude, did he not want to make a big deal about it? Otherwise, he would not have been sent to investigate the matter thoroughly.

With this conjecture in mind, I planned to go to the teacher in the evening and discuss it with the teacher. After all, the teacher has been an official for many years, and he must have an understanding of the emperor's character.

Ren Ge returned to his office room from Zhang Hai, looked at Gu Chengyu, who was carefully proofreading the actual record, and paused.

"Jinyu! Summoned by Lord Zhang! ”

Gu Chengyu was concentrating on the proofreading, and it wasn't until he heard Ren Ge's voice that he raised his head.

He pondered for a moment, pondering in his heart the purpose of Master Zhang's summoning him. In just a moment, he tidied up the table, thanked Ren Ge, and walked towards the door.

Ren Ge looked at Gu Chengyu's back and was distracted, yesterday the emperor summoned Master Zhang, and Gu Chengyu also went, is it for the ceremony?

Liu Zonghan smiled when he saw this, he no longer expected the position of attendant.

In officialdom, it is never the turn of whoever is old can be promoted. Gu Chengyu's contribution this time is not small, and Ren Ge may not be able to get what he wants.

Thinking so, he looked at Jiang Kenan, who was working hard.

Among the four of them, Gu Chengyu is a strong supporter and capable, although he offended Lord Shoufu, the possibility of being promoted within three years is very high.

Ren Ge is also very talented, but it's a pity that he has no identity background, relying on Lord Zhang's appreciation, he is afraid that he will be promoted if he wants to be promoted.

As for Jiang Kenan, it is needless to say. The ability to do things is not outstanding, but it can only be said that he is conscientious and does not dare to slack off.

But this person only knows how to work hard, he doesn't know how to drill the camp at all, and he doesn't understand the comings and goings of the officialdom, and his family background is average, so it seems that he won't move his ass in a few years.

After analyzing these three people in his heart, he felt that he would still have to get closer to Gu Chengyu in the future.

What if you don't get along with Shousuke-sama? Can Lord Shoufu still be bigger than the emperor?

He could see that Gu Chengyu was full of saints! I can't say that I will be summoned again and again in the future, after all, the preface of the meeting is there!

Finally, thinking of himself, he smiled bitterly. How many pounds and taels does he have, how can he not know?

The ability is not big, but fortunately, he still has a mouth, and it is his specialty to meet the source left and right, otherwise it would be impossible to sit in this position for so long.

Gu Chengyu came to Master Zhang's place, and wanted to shout at the door as usual.

The doors and windows were all wide open, and Master Zhang had already seen Gu Chengyu coming.

Before Gu Chengyu could speak, he directly let Gu Chengyu in.
