Chapter 516: Questioning
Ye Zhong's face did not show panic because of the emperor's questioning, which made the emperor slightly dissatisfied, straightened up, and suddenly slammed the music on the table on the marble in front of Ye Zhong, making a heavy sound.
"Ye Aiqing, take a good look at what this is, why did Yushitai participate in you using power for personal gain, protecting officials and officials, and even bullying the monarch...... In this article, do you still have the emperor in your eyes? ”
Seeing that the important minister he personally promoted and valued actually toyed with him in the palm of his hand, the emperor's heart was full of shame and anger, and he suddenly became angry, pointed at Ye Zhong and shouted, so that the attendants in the palace all knelt down with a thud, and they didn't dare to breathe.
Seeing that the emperor was furious, Ye Zhong immediately paused, glanced at the folds that had been reviewed on the ground, and the three words Ye Jingyang suddenly appeared in it, making Ye Zhong open his robe and kneel on the ground, without justifying one or two.
"Get out of here......"
Seeing that Ye Zhong did not shirk his defense, the emperor's face slackened a little, and he suddenly shouted.
Ye Zhong knew that the emperor's words were not meant to him, and he saw the envoys around him retreat in a hurry.
"You're here to talk to me, this piece is played, it's okay! If you can't tell, don't blame me for being ruthless...... You know, what I hate the most! ”
What the emperor hates most is the collusion of the Chinese officials and military attachés of the DPRK to control the government of the DPRK and try to shake his power, which touches the bottom line of the emperor!
Ye Zhong knew this, but for the sake of his two poor nephews, he could only pull them without violating his principles, after all, they were the only two children left by the concubine.
"What, nothing to say? Or do you want me to cut off your head? ”
"The minister is guilty! The minister didn't want to defend himself, but he still wanted to show his loyalty to the emperor, and the minister didn't try to get involved in the military power and deceive the king......"
"Oh? Then according to what you said, you don't know who Ye Jingyang is? ”
The emperor looked puzzled, as if he was surprised, and looked at Ye Zhong and asked quietly.
Ye Zhong pondered for a moment and nodded.
"The minister knows!"
"Now that you know, then you tell me that none of the performances of the Imperial Observatory are true?"
Hearing Ye Zhong's inconsistent words, the emperor instantly laughed angrily, but this smile was a little cold.
"I don't know if the emperor still remembers, the minister also has a younger sister......"
The emperor was stunned for a moment, the younger sister in Ye Zhong's mouth, he remembered a little impression, when Ye Zhong first entered the office, he asked people to investigate the Ye family clearly, Ye Zhong did have a sibling sister!
"What do you have to do with your sister?"
The emperor frowned, not knowing what Ye Zhong meant by this.
"Ye Jingyang, it's my poor sister's child!
Not long after his father died, the minister's family was poor, and the minister's mother was a woman who didn't know anything, and the minister was bent on gaining fame, and everything in the family fell on the body of the sister, and later ......"
Speaking of this, Ye Zhong paused, not knowing how to talk about the events of the year.
It's just that everything happened too fast, and by the time he found out, his sister couldn't turn back.
What he didn't expect was that his mother, who had always been gentle and virtuous, would be so resolutely opposed when she learned that her sister had a private life agreement with someone, and even made a move, and what he didn't expect was that the smart and well-behaved Ye Yu would cut off the relationship with her mother in a fit of anger and elope with someone.
That's why my mother blames herself so much, regretting that she hit her sister in the first place!
Otherwise, why would my sister have embarked on this path!
He can't say these things, even if this person is a high emperor, after all, this world is already very harsh on women, and he can't let his sister be criticized by the world after her death.
Besides, if this matter spreads, the reputation of Ye Mansion and the name of my father will also be criticized!
Whether it was for the sake of the two nephews or Ye Fu, he couldn't reveal the matter originally.
"The minister's sister met someone unladylike, had a misunderstanding with the minister, and broke off the relationship with the minister, never returned to the house, and never saw each other when she was dying!
And the minister didn't know that the minister also had two nephews who were living a difficult life!
Chen didn't know that Ye Jingyang was the orphan left by Chen's poor sister, and it wasn't until the child stood out from Jiangdu that Chen noticed him.
Later, after the child returned to Beijing, he came to the door, and only then did he know that the minister had two nephews who were outcast, and the minister's sister had died of illness many years ago!
Your Majesty, if the minister had known that he would be the child left by the minister's sister, the minister would not have let him fall on the river and become a rogue......"
The emperor listened to his minister's sad and indignant account of the cause and effect, and his face suddenly became extremely complicated and a little strange.
It stands to reason that these are Ye Mansion's family affairs after all, and as the emperor, he didn't want to know the private affairs of the minister's mansion in the court, although Ye Zhong said it simply, but the emperor still heard something unusual from it!
Not to mention that Miss Ye broke off relations with Ye Fu for some reason, and she didn't see each other until she died, let's just say that Ye Zhong's nephew, even if he has a father's family, how could he be a wanderer outside!
He remembered that Ye Jingyang was only the age when he tied his hair.
Think about the deeds that the young man has done over the years, and the one that seems to be done by an ignorant young man!
After the circulation of maritime trade, the trade of the Yuan Kingdom was greatly improved, and even the treasury was much fuller!
If he takes Ye Jingyang down now and asks for the crime, in the eyes of the people, does he, the emperor, have some intention of unloading the grind and killing the donkey, wouldn't it chill the hearts of the courtiers.
Then who will dare to do things for him in the future!
Looking at the kneeling people below, the emperor frowned irritably for a while, and waved his hand impatiently.
"Get up first! I will let people find out about this matter, and we will discuss this matter later!
I'm tired, stand down! ”
"Minister, retire ......"
Watching Ye Zhong leave, the emperor's brows furrowed even tighter.
It stands to reason that Ye Jingyang is not only innocent, but even meritorious......
In fact, for Ye Zhong's words, the emperor still believed seven or eight points in his heart, after all, with Ye Zhong's current identity, he would never let Ye Jingyang be born a bandit!
This is nothing good with him!
"Come on, let Cai Yang come in, I have something to tell him......"
Ye Fan's sister and brother didn't know that the one in the palace was already thinking about what to do with Ye Jingyang, and at this moment, Ye Jingyang took advantage of the night to go to the Nanwang Mansion, and a strange tone came out of his mouth, which made Huomei, who was originally restless and unable to sleep, turn over in panic and pricked up her ears to listen.
After confirming the sound in his ears, he frowned in distress and slowly climbed out of bed.
Looking at the sleeping maid outside the door, Hui Mei tiptoed around the maid, and then ran away, following the direction from which the sound came.
There was no one on the way, so Huo Mei shook her head strangely, and then walked under the wall on the west side of the Nanwang Mansion.
Huomei looked at the high wall, the corners of her mouth turned down, and a few cries appeared in her mouth, but they were much more immature and weak than the sound that appeared just now.
