Chapter 75: Dare to attack the Chi family, I'm impatient
"Something to start, nothing to retreat." In the court, seeing that important matters were almost discussed, the eunuch spoke out at the right time.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do, and the minister wants to participate in the prime minister of the dynasty - Chi Song, the prime minister seeks personal gain in his position, and has repeatedly fished the people and searched for the people's fat and ointment, this is the evidence collected by the minister."
"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to participate in the prime minister's book, and the prime minister has filled his own pockets many times, and the silver sent to the border pass is his own, which is the evidence collected by the minister."
"Your Majesty, the ministers also have to participate in the Prime Minister's ......"
As the first person spoke, people participated in Chi Song one after another.
Chi Song didn't know why, so he was caught off guard, and these false evidences made him frown.
glanced at these officials, and only thought it was funny, and the people who participated in him were either the prince's people, or the people who usually disagreed with him politically.
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to visit Princess Jingnan, Chi Wanwan, she opened a shop in the capital, competing with the people for profit, losing the royal demeanor, according to the eyes of the lower officials, it is best to rush her shop into the treasury to set an example."
A different voice appeared, and some officials were about to move, wanting to speak for Chi Song and Chi Wanwan, but were stopped by Xiao Junmo.
These people are clearly prepared, and now is not a good time to strike.
"The prime minister has done his best for the country, where do you come from the messy crimes, give me some points, and retreat from the dynasty."
The emperor ignored the participation of a group of officials, but instead scolded him, showing Chi Song's loyalty, and the matter was over.
Chi Song was not happy because of the emperor's understanding, but worried.
"The prime minister doesn't have to worry, there is room for maneuver in this matter, these people falsify evidence, it is not enough evidence, but you also have to be on guard and quickly find something to prove your innocence."
Xiao Junmo comforted Chi Song.
Through today's events, he probably guessed that the emperor was probably dissatisfied with Chi Song in his heart, and today's end was just waiting for things to ferment and the time was ripe.
Chi Song's rights in the court and the political affairs he handled have already made the emperor feel threatened, not to mention that Chi Song is now linked to himself, and he will inevitably be questioned by those in power.
Xiao Junmo returned to the mansion and informed Chi Wanwan of the matter of this morning, which was related to the Prime Minister's Mansion and her own interest, Xiao Junmo believed that Chi Wanwan had the right to know.
"He wants me to flush the store into the treasury?"
Chi Wanwan couldn't believe it, where did this official come from, why is his face so big? Although her shop is not large, it is very profitable, and it is also a lot of income.
"Don't worry, I won't let him succeed, this person just wants to use this matter to suppress your father."
Xiao Junmo soothed Chi Wanwan's emotions.
"Lord Wang, I have a request for something." People sit at home, the pot comes from the sky, how can the pool be endured.
"You say."
Chi Wanwan muttered a few words in Xiao Junmo's ear, and Xiao Junmo was a little surprised.
"Are you sure?" Chi Wanwan wanted to borrow Xiao Junmo's right to write a letter to fight back against those officials who made something out of nothing, Xiao Junmo was not unwilling, but he was worried about causing a bad response.
"I'm sure, lord, you just agree." Chi Wanwan shook his arm, knowing that the more she retreated at this time, the more those officials had to advance, and she had to fight back.
Xiao Junmo knew about her considerations, and she didn't ask anymore, and handed over her private seal to Chi Wanwan.
On the second day, Chi Wanwan wrote a memoir, which was read out by the eunuch on the spot, to the effect that a group of officials made something out of nothing, and the evidence given was also ridiculous.
Chi Song hasn't even been to those places in the evidence, how can he talk about corruption, and the matter of the store, there are many powerful people in the capital who open shops, and there are countless people who are more profitable than her.
Chi Wanwan even listed the shops of several officials who participated in Chi Song, which were quite profitable, and Chi Wanwan asked, should these people compete with the people for profit also be included in the national treasury?
A group of officials frightened her questioning, and looked at each other, worried that the emperor really ordered her shop to be put into the treasury, which was all a daily income.
"Your Majesty, Princess Jingnan really has no royal law, and she dares to openly mix with the affairs of the court, this is to treat the emperor, thinking that the emperor does not dare to deal with her, the emperor, this is a naked provocation."
Receiving the prince's signal, an official hurriedly stood up and spoke, throwing the guilt to Chi Wanwan.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Zhu said is true, since ancient times, there has been no precedent for women to mix with the court, Princess Jingnan played openly, this is to disrupt the order of the court, even if she has a little credit for the emperor's treatment, but it should not be so lawless, the emperor must not condone it."
The officials who were involved just now responded to Lord Zhu's words.
"The princess is not guilty if she doesn't know, and I don't care if she commits her first offense."
The emperor is generous and considerate on the surface, and he is very tolerant of Chi Wanwan's behavior, but he is uncomfortable in his heart.
Even if he knew that someone was secretly guiding, Chi Wanwan's behavior was obviously a provocation to the imperial power.
The emperor's connivance even stimulated a group of officials, and they couldn't deal with Chi Wanwan, so they pointed the finger at Chi Song.
"Your Majesty, recently, some people found ministers and sued the prime minister for forcibly occupying people's land, and forcibly requisitioning people to do farm work, but the remuneration given was not enough for the people to support their families."
"Your Majesty, not only forcibly occupy the people's land, Chi Song in order to seek benefits, openly fornicated with the enemy country, this is the evidence collected by the minister, and the emperor is invited to take a look, and he must not be brought over again."
It was played by an old official, who gave heart-wrenching advice, and even wanted to arouse the emperor's attention with death.
"Bring in the evidence."
The emperor could not hide the anger in his heart, he was a pure minister, did not occupy a faction, and only served the court, and his words carried a lot of weight.
Although the emperor was happy to see everyone fighting Xiao Junmo's forces, and he also had the idea of replacing the prime minister, he did not want to involve treason with the enemy, which was a big taboo.
"Chi Song, what do you have to explain?"
The emperor who had seen the evidence of the crime was furious, and the evidence included not only correspondence, but also transactions, and the huge assets involved made the emperor tremble.
It's just that these evidences don't seem to be long-lasting, but like they have only started to cooperate, and the emperor is a little suspicious.
"Back to the emperor, the ministers think that the officials are honest and honest, they have never done anything against their conscience, they are dedicated to the country, and the forcible occupation of people's land does not exist, and the treason with the enemy is even more false.
Chi Song knelt down calmly without being humble or arrogant, wanting to add to the crime, there was no excuse, for the framing of these people, Chi Song only felt ridiculous.
In order to frame him, he even clinged to the interests of the country.
Chi Song's attitude made the emperor hesitate, and in the end he just grounded him in the Prime Minister's Mansion, waiting to find out the truth.
Xiao Junmo returned to the palace and told Chi Wanwan everything in the court as usual.
The two knew very well that this group of people was just trying to distract them, and it was Xiao Junmo who really had to deal with it.
"Lord Wang, leave the task of finding out the truth to me." It's about herself and her father, and she has to move.
