Chapter 21: Zhu Di's Thunderous Fury (Ask for Follow-up)

Zhu Di has never been so angry, a court minister, lazy government affairs, running to the Qinhuai River to drink flower wine, he can bear it, just punish the crime according to the law. What is the only concubine who came to Qi Tai for?

You were officials in the same dynasty at the beginning, but now Qi Tai and others have been killed, except for the relatives of Zhulian, the rest have been demoted to slaves and have been exiled to the Qinglou.

You came to find someone's concubine, you are really elegant, very elegant!

"Catch, arrest Ru Yu immediately, I'm going to cut him!"

Zhu Di was already mad, Yao Guangxiao was still very calm, "Your Majesty, the remnants of the anti-party in the city still exist, Your Majesty has a private visit, don't reveal your identity, this matter will be dealt with tomorrow morning, let's go back to the palace as soon as possible." ”

"No, I can't bear it anymore, Daming Dynasty, I can't allow such a brute, not for a moment!" Zhu Di stood up suddenly, and actually planned to arrest people personally.

At this time, Xu Jingchang said quietly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that you must not go, otherwise, there may be some rumors, saying that Your Majesty and Ru Shangshu are jealous......"

"Fart!" Zhu Di's eyes were horizontal, "Xu Jingchang, you rabbit cub is beaten, I want to beat you to death!" ”

Zhu Di raised his fist of the sandbag and was about to smash it towards Xu Jingchang.

"Your Majesty, people are terrible, and they have always been. This matter can be handled properly, and tomorrow when the court goes to the court, the ministers impeach the hundred officials, saying that they are misbehaving. ”

After Xu Jingchang finished speaking, Yao Guangxiao was overjoyed, "Your Majesty, Xu Tongzheng's method is good, and it is most appropriate for him to impeach him." Hurry back to the palace, otherwise the palace gate will be closed, and the matter will spread out, and you will inevitably startle the snake. ”

Zhu Di had no choice but to agree.

In this way, he returned to the palace with a full stomach of anger, Ji Gang also went back, and Yao Guangxiao also left.

Only Wu Shan and Xu Jingchang remained.

At this moment, Wu Shan's face turned white, and his voice trembled: "My lord, Your Majesty's thunderous anger, I'm afraid that tomorrow I will be bleeding like a river, right?" ”

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids, "It can add a lot of goods to Qinhuai River." ”

Wu Shan was stunned, and then he understood what Xu Jingchang meant, and his face withered into a dog ignoring the buns.

"My lord, your counterattack is really powerful!"

Xu Jingchang snorted: "Now you know? You hurry up and search for some evidence of their crimes, and tomorrow you will behave well, and you may be able to move up three levels, but you can't say. ”

In an instant, Wu Shan seemed to be poured with chicken blood, screaming, and hurried to work.

Xu Jingchang was calm, he also slept well and recuperated.

Before dawn, Xu Jingchang got into the carriage and rushed to the noon gate, Jian Yi, Xia Yuanji and others had already arrived, including Ru Yu, who was also in the ranks.

Xu Jingchang peeked and found that this person was full of energy and did not show any tiredness.

Obediently, I ran to drink flower wine last night, and now I can still do this, I have to say, I really get old and strong!

Xu Jingchang stood on the side of the civil officials, and there were seven people in front of him, six Shangshu, plus a Zuodu Imperial History. In other words, among the civil officials, he ranks eighth, and Dali Temple is still behind him.

In the pile of military generals, Qiu Fu was sick, and Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, did not come.

The leader became Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, and Xu Jingchang didn't know if it was an illusion, so he looked over there and found that the Duke of Chengguo gritted his teeth and smiled at him.

Is this a gesture of goodwill to me?

Xu Jingchang didn't know what he was thinking, but at this time, Yao Guangxiao actually arrived.

He accepted Zhu Di's reward and was ranked as the Duke of Rongguo, so he also stood on the side of the military generals.

With this old pressure array, Xu Jingchang also breathed a sigh of relief.

The old monk came by stepping on the point, and then under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, he entered the palace and worshiped the Son of Heaven, and a set of procedures went down.

Zhu Di's face sank like water, his eyes were bloodshot, and he obviously couldn't hold it anymore.

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach a hundred officials."

Xu Jingchang stood up and said sharply.

When he said this, everyone present was stunned, especially the gang who had just gone to sue Xu Jingchang, and their faces were embarrassed at the moment.

You little bunny is too rampant, and if we impeach you, you're going to get revenge back?

We are all honest and upright ministers, and we have to bear the consequences if we falsely accuse the courtiers.

Zhu Di couldn't wait to say: "What are you impeaching?" ”

"The minister impeached the military department Shangshu Ru Yu and below, a total of 53 officials, lingering in the Qinglou, indulging in prostitutes, corrupting the national code, and committing a great crime. Especially Ru Yu, the secretary of the military department, also went to find Qi Tai's concubine, this matter is simply unspeakable! Xu Jingchang said loudly.

When Ru Yu in the team heard this, his old face suddenly changed slightly, but he didn't panic at all.

Zhu Di looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Ru Shangshu, what do you say?" But have you ever been to the Qinglou? ”

What is surprising is that Ru Yu said directly and calmly: "Your Majesty, the minister has been there, and it was yesterday." ”

This sentence stunned Zhu Di, you really have the courage to admit it!

"And why?" Zhu Di asked.

"To see the prisoner's family." Ru Yu still replied honestly.

This time completely confused Zhu Di, "Ru Shangshu, those rebel ministers and you are also former colleagues, but you are involved in their daughters, isn't it too much?" ”

Ru Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has no intention of taking advantage of people's danger, let alone falling into the ground. Speaking of the fact that when the old minister served as the secretary of the ministry, it was Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng who secretly harmed the old minister and demoted the old minister from Yingtian, and His Majesty knew about this. ”

Zhu Di was stunned, "Indeed, I do know, and it is because of this that I promoted you to the secretary of the military department." ”

Ru Yu smiled and said: "Your Majesty is gracious, and you have the whole world in mind. The old minister and Qi Huang and the others are at odds, everyone knows it, and now they have been killed, their relatives are connected, and the rest of the concubines' families have been demoted to happy status. When the old minister went to Qinhuai, he heard that there were small people who took the opportunity to abuse him, fell into the well, and forced someone to throw himself into the river and die. Your Majesty has already punished him, although he is a slave and a servant, he should not be allowed to be disposed of by Qinglou at will, where is the law of the country? The old minister went here just to beat the villains, and he had no other evil thoughts. And this move is also to show His Majesty's benevolence, and also hope that the Holy Son of Heaven will be enlightened. ”

After Ru Yu finished speaking, Zhu Di was speechless.

He had already pardoned Sheng Yong earlier, and stated that only a few people such as Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng were guilty. It is indeed inappropriate to chase and kill Jianwen's old ministers to the end.

What's even better is that Ru Yu and Qitai Huang Zicheng have conflicts, not all the way, he does have a grandiose excuse to go to the Qinhuai River.

Of course, it's just an excuse.

But this is enough, many courtiers looked at Xu Jingchang with ill intentions, you little cub who doesn't know the height of the sky, kicked the iron plate, right?

If you still want to fight with us, you will have to eat dry rice for decades!

Xu Jingchang smiled slightly, "Ru Shangshu, you are really righteous and awe-inspiring, magnificent, I thought you were going to take revenge!" ”

Ru Yu was instantly furious, "Xu Tongzheng, you spewed blood and framed the old man, even if your identity is unusual, I will definitely not agree." ”

As he spoke, Ru Yu was about to turn around and complain to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di is very embarrassed at this moment, the so-called catching thieves must be dirty, and catching traitors must be double.

If he rushed in yesterday and took Ru Yu directly, he wouldn't be able to quibble, but at the moment, he could only be reduced to saying his own thing, what should he do?

He glanced at Xu Jingchang, but found that Xu Jingchang had a smile on his face and was not panicked at all.

Does this kid still have hole cards?

"Ru Shangshu, a month ago, Your Majesty entered Beijing, and you were in charge of renovating the Imperial Dao Heavenly Street, is this right?"

Ru Yu was stunned, "There is indeed this matter, it was done by the old man and the Ministry of Industry, but what does this matter have to do with your slander of the old man?" ”

"It doesn't matter much, it's just that someone took the best stone to pave the road of the Qinhuai River, causing the Tianjie to be uneven...... Ru Shangshu, do you think this is a big disrespect, is it a crime of defrauding the king? ”

Ru Yu's face changed suddenly, "You, you are talking nonsense, you are framing the old man!" ”

Xu Jingchang smiled, "I have a witness to what I said." ”

"Witness, who are your witnesses?"

Xu Jingchang smiled: "Naturally, it's Your Majesty." Your Majesty, do you remember the two stones that the minister handed you? ”

Zhu Di suddenly realized that he was angry with Ru Yu, thinking about how to clean up the hundred officials and put an end to unhealthy tendencies. Now he knew that there was something deeper hidden.

"Go, fetch the stones."

After a while, a eunuch brought two stones.

Zhu Di stood up himself, grabbed a good piece, and said with a smile: "This is the way you go to the Qinglou to drink flower wine." Then, he picked up another broken stone and laughed at himself: "This is the path I took to ascend the throne and worship my ancestors, good, good!" ”

In the next second, I saw Zhu Di lifting the stone and throwing it towards Ru Yu.

"Clever words, shameless!"

Zhu Di gritted his teeth and scolded, Ru Yu fell to the ground in response, and the courtiers exclaimed in horror......
