Chapter 240: Stealing the sky and changing the day is the best
It is a common method in officialdom to provide conditions for some unqualified people to enter the court and become their own staff, but no one has ever said so on the surface.
"Nonsense!" Wang Yan seemed to be annoyed, and Guang Sleeve flicked his finger at Lu Qi, and said angrily, "Lu Shizi, why are you framing me like this?" ”
"Your Majesty, the period is not framed!" Lu Qi ignored Wang Yan, just thinking about the defense of Emperor Tianlong.
"But the prince has evidence?" Prince Ning Xuan's tone was much calmer.
"Yes, but the evidence is not in my possession right now."
"Oh? If you came up to the temple, why didn't you take that evidence with you? The prince then asked.
A look of embarrassment flashed on Lu Qi's face, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed: "When Qi was in the academy, he also had some friendship with those three people. Once the three of them inadvertently mentioned that the eldest prince wanted the three of them to enter the court as officials and revive the style of the Wang family. ”
Ning Xuan glanced at everyone in the Wang family when he heard this, and repeated: "Revive the style of the Wang family? ”
Hua Xiyan couldn't help but be a little funny when she looked at the two of them singing and harmonizing. If she hadn't stumbled upon the letter and knew that Lu Qi and the Li family were allies, I am afraid that she would have to applaud Lu Qi's righteous act of killing relatives!
Emperor Tianlong suddenly snorted coldly, slapped the table around him heavily, and asked Wang Yao: "Dingguo Gong, what Lu Shizi said is true?" ”
"If the minister wants to revive the royal family, the minister has a chance, and the minister's sons are enough, why choose those three things that can't be on the table?"
Wang Yao has always been calm and modest, peaceful, and even speaks gently. Now saying such things with a somewhat disdainful and arrogant attitude really shocked the courtiers.
So many people thought of the glorious deeds of Wang Yan, who was the top student in high school, but he threw the temple higher than the back of his head, thinking that which son of the Wang family would take it out casually and not kill it in seconds, where would he use it to support any little minions?
The attitude of the crowd once again showed a one-sided tendency, and Lu Qi did not panic, and continued: "By chance, there was once a person who said that someone secretly gave them money to get through the relationship, and also left a letter. After the fraud was revealed, Jinju Academy was sealed, and the people of the academy also brought their belongings to the capital, hoping that this thing was extremely important, and it must be in the belongings of those three people, as long as the emperor found the letter, everything would be revealed. ”
"Your Majesty!" Wang Yan suddenly opened his mouth and bowed to Emperor Tianlong, "Those three people are all from Jinzhou Academy anyway, if they are searched so casually, who else will dare to come to Jinzhou Academy to study in the future?" ”
It's just that Wang Yan's obstruction seems to be a desire to cover up in the eyes of everyone, and it is a kind of cover up and cover-up. A little displeasure flashed in Emperor Tianlong's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I promise that if this search is fruitless, it will not cause damage to Jinju Academy. ”
"But ......"
"Prince Wang, only by finding evidence can we clear the innocence of Jinju Academy, right?" Ning Xuan interrupted Wang Yan's words and smiled brightly, "Prince Wang doesn't want the Wang family to suffer this injustice all the time, does he?" ”
Seeing Wang Yan's nervous appearance, the Li family was happy in their hearts, and almost concluded that what Lu Shizi said was true, and there was something tired of Jinzhou Academy.
"Someone, go search!" Emperor Tianlong didn't say anything more, and directly gave an order.
Seeing a wave of Imperial Forest Army leading the way away, Wang Yan's face turned pale, and he turned his head to look at Lu Qi, with indescribable grief in his tone: "I never thought that the person who wants to put me to death now is actually someone who is extremely close to me. ”
Lu Qi hung his head and was silent, Hua Xiyan walked to Wang Yan's side, called his eldest brother, turned his head to look at Lu Qi, and said, "Lu Shizi, if you can't find a reason in the three-person room, what should you do?" ”
Lu Qi looked at Hua Xiyan and did not speak.
"Now you keep saying that my Wang family let those three cheat, if you don't find the so-called evidence, or if the evidence does not point to my Wang family, how do you explain?" Hua Xiyan asked coldly.
Lu Qi raised his head and glanced at Ning Xuan quickly, turned his head to the Wang family and the others, and said in a sonorous voice: "If you want to kill, you have to kill, listen to it!" ”
Hua Xiyan sighed, shook his head and said, "Shizi, you are like this, but have you thought about your sister-in-law's feelings?" ”
Lu Qi's body was shocked, a trace of grief flashed in his eyes, and he did not speak.
For a while, there was a dead silence in the hall, and the affairs of the Wen family had not been dealt with, and the flames of war had burned to the people of the Wang family.
Wen Yao's father and son knelt on the ground, no longer having the fear and grief they had just now, and there seemed to be clusters of sparks burning in their eyes, waiting to see the fall of the Wang family.
Time passed little by little, but who knew that there was no waiting for the Royal Forest Army to search, but what they were waiting for was an urgent military report of 800 miles from the south.
Emperor Tianlong looked at it and roared angrily: "Urgent, why is it urgent!" Three months ago, it was an emergency, and I had already sent a large army to help suppress it, so what did King Dingnan do? Can't even deal with a little South Vietnam? ”
The kneeling soldiers below wiped the sweat from their foreheads, kowtowed to Emperor Tianlong, and said, "Your Majesty, this time it is not the fault of the soldiers of the three armies!" Our army had the upper hand in several wars against South Vietnam, but who knew that later the soldiers were in low spirits and in a sluggish state, where was the opponent of South Vietnam? That's why you're defeated? ”
"You say all the soldiers are in such a state?" Huaxi Yanqing Lingling's voice sounded in the main hall, asking the soldier.
The soldier raised his eyes and looked in front of him, not having time to care why there was such a beautiful woman in the court, and nodded to himself.
Where do the civil and military officials still have the heart to pay attention to dogmas such as women are not allowed to interfere in politics, and they all think that the morale of the previous victories should be high, how can they be depressed one by one?
The soldier wiped his sweat again, thinking that he hadn't finished talking just now, why was everyone in a hurry?
"This military master seems to have something to say?" Hua Xiyan glanced at the soldier's expression and spoke again.
For some reason, Wen Chun saw Hua Xiyan's smiling appearance, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
"Back to the emperor, after the military doctor investigated, he found out that the soldiers had eaten bad stomachs one by one, and it turned out to be the military rations carried with the army, which was old rice several years ago!" The soldier was free to answer.
"Impossible!" This time it was Wen Yao who shouted loudly, the rice, grain and silver in the south were all provided by his Wen family, how did the good grain become old rice?
"Sell good rice and grain to Beirong, but give old rice to this * team, the loyalty of the Wen family is really heaven and earth, the sun and the moon can be seen!" Ning Xi chuckled lightly and sighed.
The blood on Wen Chun's face receded, and he kowtowed to Emperor Tianlong again and again: "Your Majesty Mingjian!" The grain that the ministers gave to the southern army was definitely the grain that was rented last year, and it was definitely not old rice! ”
Ning Ye, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, spoke at this time and said to Wen Chun: "Young Master Wen, this little king came in and heard something, I wonder if Wen Gongzi can solve this little king's doubts?" ”
Wen Chun immediately nodded: "Little prince, please speak." ”
"Ben Xiaowang heard that a batch of rice and grain did arrive in the south before, but it was not sold to the army, but it was purchased at a low price, and then sold to the local people, and made a lot of money, and Ben Xiaowang also heard about it. The grain was transported by the Wen family, and the Wen family purchased it at a low price, making a war fortune. Many people also followed the Wen family and made a fortune. Ning Ye said casually, but no matter what kind of impact such words caused to everyone.
"Is what Ning Ye said true?" Emperor Tianlong pointed at Ning Ye and asked Wen Chun in a deep voice.
Wen Chun swallowed, wanting to deny it, but he lacked confidence, because he did that thing in the first place!
When Emperor Tianlong saw this, why didn't he understand? Immediately angry: "You sell good grain to Beirong, or resell it to make a profit, but what I give to the army is old rice, this is the good thing that your Wen family did with the word 'imperial merchant'!" ”
Wen Yao trembled, didn't know what to say, just repeated: "The grass people don't." ”
Give him 10,000 guts, he won't dare to sell old rice to the army!
Wen Chun lowered his head, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking that the rice and grain he used to transport rice and grain to the army were all the luck of the Wang family, and the rice grain he transported over was obviously good, why did he replace it with old rice? The only mistake was on the luck of the Wang family!
His own grain was exchanged by the Wang family!
Thinking of this, Wen Chun immediately looked up at Hua Xiyan, and the fierce color in her eyes almost shattered her. Hua Xiyan smiled at Wen Chun, as if to tell him that what you think is good, I changed it.
Wen Chun had a look of horror on his face, and immediately turned his head to look at Emperor Tianlong: "...... Emperor"
"Your Majesty!" Wen Chun's words were interrupted by the leader of the Imperial Forest Army who was rushing outside, and the leader held a few things in his hand and handed them directly to Emperor Tianlong, "Your Majesty, this is from the belongings of those three people!" ”
Really searched for something! The civil and military officials looked at Lu Qi and Wang Yan, and they immediately had a plan in their hearts.
"Prince Wang, now the evidence is conclusive." Ning Xuan looked at Wang Yan, shook his head, and sighed, "It's a pity......
"I can't imagine that it was really the Wang family!" An official shook his head and sighed.
"I know this paper, it's pear fragrant paper produced in Jinju! Wang Jia...... Alas......"
"I really can't imagine it, if it weren't for Lu Shizi, I'm afraid this matter would not be found out in the Year of the Monkey......"
Several officials whispered, and Hua Xiyan listened quietly, remembering the appearance of these officials in his mind.
With Emperor Tianlong's increasingly ugly face, the voices of the officials became louder and louder, and everyone was crusading against the Wang family, as if this would make the face of the Ninety-Five Emperor look better.
Wang Jin turned his head to look at Hua Xiyan, and what he saw on her face was the usual light smile, and her heart was also calmed down a little. I know that as long as there is Huaxi smoke, everything will not be a problem. The fire will never burn on the Wang family.
Everyone was talking energetically, when they saw Emperor Tianlong suddenly stand up, and the majesty exuded by his tall body made all the civil and military officials shudder.
Emperor Tianlong took a few deep breaths, his face fixed on the people of the Wang family, and after a while, it seemed like a long time had passed, before he spit out a bad word that shocked all the officials.
"Wen Yao, Wen Chun, make a decision!"
