Li Shimin stared at the confession, his fists already clenched.

"I don't know what you're talking about!"

Hou Junji's face was cold, and he said angrily,

"Zhao Yi is Zhao Yi, I am me! What does it matter to me that he embezzles money? Just because he was my subordinate, you poured dirty water on me? ”

"Xu Fenglei, your inference is inevitably too ridiculous!"

Now that he has torn his face, he doesn't need to call the other party any "Taishi", just call his name, and passionately match the line!

"Ridiculous? Hou Junji, you really don't cry when you don't see the coffin! ”

Xu Fenglei came prepared today, how could he be afraid that he would mess around?

I saw him take out a piece of paper from his sleeve again, and sneered,

"On this, you have been corrupt everywhere since the ninth year of Wude! The names of those subordinates who you used as a tool to collect money are all on this piece of paper, do you want me to read them to you? ”

Hou Junji's face changed suddenly.

Before he could speak, Xu Fenglei had already read aloud:

"In the first year of Zhenguan, after His Majesty ascended the throne, he rewarded the guards of the Beijing Division, and the reward silver that was distributed to the right guard was 5,000 taels, and half of it was privately swallowed by your subordinate Zhonglang Zhang Cong, of which 500 taels he enjoyed himself, and the remaining 2,000 taels were given to you!"

After that, the Jingshi army resisted the invasion of the Turkic Jieli Khan and won the battle to defend Chang'an! His Majesty rewarded the three armies in the second year of Zhenguan, and the right guard contributed a lot this time, and was divided into eight thousand taels! And you, even though Your Majesty has already rewarded you, still stretched out your black hand to the rewards of the soldiers, tsk...... I have to say, it's sad to be a soldier under you. ”

"Three years of Zhenguan! You were promoted to the military department, and you are very happy, because the military department really has a lot of oil and water to fish! In the Ministry of War, you vigorously cultivated cronies to act as your gloves, and made a lot of money, and the income income was as high as 10,000 taels! The country's assets were sold by you and went into your own pocket! ”

"Three years of Zhenguan ......"

“……”

Xu Fenglei read one by one, and with each thought, Hou Junji's face became a little paler.

By the end of his life, his face was bloodless, and his lips trembled.

At this moment, he has a huge sense of uneasiness that his bottoms are being seen through! This uneasiness quickly turned into fear!

At the same time, the eyes of the surrounding ministers looking at him were all shocked and disdainful.

Shocked that Hou Junji was so bold and had so many serious violations of the law!

To despise is naturally to despise such traitors who oppress their subordinates and sell their state-owned assets!

As we all know, the atmosphere of the Zhenguan Dynasty is good, and the court is very clean from top to bottom, so they are even more disgusted with such corrupt officials and corrupt officials!

"Hou Junji, did you really do these beast things?"

Wei Chigong stepped forward and asked angrily,

"You have to embezzle the military salaries of your brothers? Are you still human? ”

"Beast, you! Pigs and dogs are not as good as you! ”

Hou Junji's face was blue and red, and he couldn't make the slightest response.

And his posture is more like confirming Xu Fenglei's impeachment - those dirty things, he really did it!

"You're damned, you're damned!"

Cheng Yanjin also stood up and shouted loudly,

"A few thousand taels of silver, how many are distributed to each soldier? You're going to have to deduct this! If I were one of your soldiers, I would be the first to cut you! ”

These two are people who once dared to quarrel with the household department of the imperial court in order to ask for military salaries for the soldiers!

In their eyes, those who withhold military salaries are the most hateful and damned!

"What I'm talking about, I don't need to investigate in detail, just ask a few soldiers on the right guard, and you can know."

Xu Fenglei stood with his hands in his hands and said in a deep voice,

"The accounts of the Ministry of War, you only need to ask the Hyogo Department to check and settle them, and you can find out how much has been missing over the years."

"As for our Ministry of Industry, we have already done a good job of checking, and Yan Lide, the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, has already made an account, and if necessary, you can hand it in at any time!"

"To sum up, it is clear and ironclad!"

"Hou Junji, do you still want to deny it?"

Hou Junji lowered his head, no matter how firm his mind was, under Xu Fenglei's indiscriminate bombardment, he was already distracted!

"According to the "Zhenguan Law", one foot of silk and one hundred canes are stolen in vain, one horse plus one class, and fifteen horses are hanged!"

Xu Fenglei turned his head to look at Li Shimin, and said loudly,

"The crime committed by Hou Junji is far more than the 'fifteen horses' silk thousands of times! Death penalty! ”

"Your Majesty, please immediately detain Hou Junji and put him in prison, find out all the facts of his crimes, and then punish him properly!"

Wow!

When the words fell, he was already bowing down to the emperor with a long stroke!

At this moment, the entire Liangyi Hall was quiet and terrifying, and everyone's eyes converged on Li Shimin's body, even Hou Junji raised his head suddenly and looked at the emperor.

That gaze seems to be a person who has fallen into the water looking at a life-saving straw!

Poof!

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty! ”

Hou Junji knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice,

"The minister hasn't done it, the minister hasn't done it!"

"Please believe in Your Majesty, please enlighten Your Majesty!"

He knew that he couldn't stand up to scrutiny!

As long as the emperor files a case for investigation, the dirty and ugly things he has done behind his back over the years will be investigated, and when the time comes, not only will he die, but his family and old ministry will be implicated!

Therefore, he can only hope that the emperor will remember the old feelings in the past, and a thin mud, and will not delve into this matter.

Li Shimin on the dragon chair, the green tendons on his forehead burst out.

“…… Needless to say. ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said indifferently,

"Come on, put Hou Junji in the prison of the Criminal Department."

Wow!

Two guards entered the hall in response and set up Hou Junji.

"Your Majesty! I haven't done it before! It's Xu Fenglei who sprays people with blood! It's him who slanders! ”

"Your Majesty! I have shed blood for Datang, and I have made meritorious contributions to Datang! You can't take his word for it, you can't do this to a hero, Your Majesty! ”

Hou Junji struggled as hard as he could, yelling and screaming, hoarse.

Li Shimin's fingers grabbed the handle of the dragon chair.

“…… Take! ”

Dragged by the guards, the hysterical Hou Junji was taken out of the Liangyi Palace.

His shouting gradually weakened.

The entire hall fell into dead silence again.

The low pressure released by the emperor made all the ministers dare not speak, and they did not even dare to move.

Even Wei Zheng lowered his head at the moment and didn't say a word.

Because they know - the emperor is now a volcano and is already on the verge of eruption!

At the same time, someone was going to throw a bomb into the crater.

"Your Majesty, Shengming!"

Xu Fenglei saluted again, bowed down and shouted,

"Hou Junji is really a moth in the imperial court, endangering the community! If this fang is not removed for a day, I will not be able to clean up and down in the Tang Dynasty for a day! ”

"Only by correcting the law on the spot can we deter the traitors and villains in the world, so that all cunning and wicked people will not dare to be greedy and corrupt!"

His voice echoed in the hall, lingering for a long time.

Li Shimin's gaze also fell on him, and the coldness in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"Xu Aiqing, you have worked hard to give me such a big gift, if it weren't for you, I would still be in the dark."

He said lightly,

"Let's put it together."

Although the words carried a bit of praise, the tone did not have the slightest hint of praise.

"Yes." Xu Fenglei didn't care, strutted forward, and retreated into the queue.

"Dai Guan, Li Jing."

Li Shimin shouted.

"The minister is here."

Two people came out of the ranks.

"In the case of Hou Junji, Dai Guan, you are responsible for the investigation and trial, and the Yushitai of the Criminal Department will handle the case together."

Li Shimin commanded.

"Yes."

Dai Xuan answered the order and couldn't help but glance at Xu Fenglei.

Boy!

It turns out that Taishi is really in the next big game of chess! The retrial of Zhao Yi's case turned out to be for Hou Junji, the mastermind behind the scenes!

Convinced, now he is completely convinced!

"Li Jing, you are in charge of the military department, and if something like this happens, you can't escape the blame."

Li Shimin looked at Li Jing, who lowered his head, and said lightly,

"Check the accounts of the military department clearly, all the omissions and smuggling must not be left behind, and after sorting out, send it to Dali Temple, there must be no mistakes."

"The minister is guilty, and the minister is willing." Li Jing responded sullenly.

Wow.

Li Shimin slowly got up and got down the golden steps, glanced at the ministers, and spit out a few words in his mouth:

"Tired."

"Retreat."

With that, he had already brushed his sleeves and left, leaving only the ministers standing in place, staring at each other with wide eyes.

"Your Majesty, this is ......"

"Alas! If something like this happens, Your Majesty must be uncomfortable in his heart, but the Taishi has poked out a big hole this time! ”

"Humph! Poke well! A moth like Hou Junji should be cleared out of the queue! Can't let this rat poop spoil our pot of good porridge! ”

"That's right......"

“……”

The ministers left one after another, and they were talking in groups and twos.

This is definitely big news, and I can't help but talk about it! It is estimated that in less than two days, everyone in Chang'an will know about this shocking corruption case!

Xu Fenglei raised his feet and crossed the threshold, but was blocked by one person.

"Taishi ......"

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at him and said helplessly,

"You're making a lot of noise, it's too big! You don't need to shout about this kind of scandal at the court! ”

"Your Majesty's face just now...... can't hang up, he must be very angry, but it's not just because Hou Junji is corrupt and angry, you know what I mean? ”

"Your behavior is almost in time to force the palace!"

Xu Fenglei shrugged.

"That's what I want! If I don't poke it out at the court meeting and force the emperor, then I will definitely not get the result I want in this matter. ”

He continued to say meaninglessly,

"I didn't do anything wrong, it's his business that the emperor is unhappy, even if he is angry with me, I don't care."

"It's a big deal to resign and go into hiding, anyway, I'm an idler now."

Eldest Sun Wuji is right, he is forcing Li Shimin!

In front of everyone's eyes, there is ironclad evidence!

Li Shimin has no second way to go, no matter how reluctant he is, he no longer wants to be charged with "prisoners", so he can only give orders! Otherwise, he would be a ridiculous faint king!

In other words, whoever is Li Shimin will be unhappy.

But Xu Fenglei didn't care.

Anyway, he is alone, and he has the ability to eat anywhere, but he will be snubbed by the emperor and return to the mountains.

But no matter what, Hou Junji must be rectified!

This is the price of touching his bottom line!

"You, you...... You are so ruthless, alas! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled bitterly,

"Seriously, I'm a little afraid of you now, if I accidentally provoke you one day, I'm afraid it will be a catastrophe."

He had seen Xu Fenglei's methods.

After gaining momentum, it is the thunder that strikes, and it will kill with one blow!

No one can stop it, not even the emperor!

It's terrifying......

"Hey."

Xu Fenglei grinned,

"I'm not so idle that I have to be a guardian of justice, in fact, I've always been kind to others, and I'm just adhering to a very simple idea-"

"If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone."

"If anyone offends me, he will be given a needle!"

"If you offend me again, cut the grass and eradicate the roots!"

"Hou Junji put his dirty hand in my pocket, I just returned him with a needle, and it hasn't reached the point of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, how can it be ruthless?"

Eldest grandson Wuji: "......"

This needle can kill people!

Poisonous bee tail needle, right?

"I know, you won't touch my bottom line, because relatively speaking, my bottom line is really low."

Xu Fenglei patted Changsun Wuji's shoulder and said with a smile,

"Gone."

After that, he was gone.

"That's a ...... Ay! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji stared at Xu Fenglei's distant back, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh,

"I'd better be careful, don't mess with him in this life......"

……

Chang'an, the mansion of the Duke of Xu.

Seven maidservants stood in front of Xu Fenglei and listened to the lecture.

"From today onwards, close the doors of the house and reduce all going out."

Xu Fenglei commanded,

"Whoever comes, I don't see it."

"If anyone asks, they say that I am sick and that I am at home and cannot see any guests."

"Do you understand?"

When the seven maidservants heard this, they were all shocked.

"Sir, this ...... What's going on? ”

Zi Wan couldn't help but ask,

"What's wrong?"

The other six were also concerned.

This posture ...... It's like you're going to take refuge!

But the question is, who in the entire Tang Dynasty can let her husband dodge?

"Nothing."

Xu Fenglei smiled and waved his hand,

"I've been feeling something in my heart lately, and I feel that I may have a calamity for a while, and I can't go out, I can't see guests, and I can only live at home."

"The only way to avoid disasters is to study behind closed doors, so from today onwards, I will study behind closed doors and cultivate my sentiments."

Hearing this answer, the maidservants breathed a sigh of relief.

"I see."

Qingwen smiled,

"It turns out that I can avoid disasters by reading, no wonder I had a rough life in the past, this is because I read less books!"

"Sir, let's study with you during this closed door, shall we?"

The rest of the women are all repeated:

"Yes, yes, we also need to read more books and cultivate our sentiments!"

Xu Fenglei couldn't help but smile when he saw them shouting.

"Okay, good, girls should read more, this can improve your temperament."

He bowed his head and said,

"The so-called belly has poetry and books, and when you are full of economy, no matter who comes, I dare not underestimate you!"

Reading can change your fate!

This is not an empty word, but a wise saying recognized by the Book of Changes!

……

Bang bang bang!

Under Xu Fenglei's instructions, the door of Xu Guogong's mansion was tightly closed, and the gatehouse was also withdrawn to the mansion.

From today onwards, we will be closed!
