Tong Guan returned to the queue a little stupidly, his heart was full of taste, it seemed that this military merit had no chance.

"Your Majesty, Minister, I have a book to play!"

At this moment, Liu Anshi, the imperial historian, suddenly came out of the ranks.

"Say!" Lin Nuo nodded.

"The minister wants to impeach Song Jiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, during the period when he was in charge of the Ministry of Industry, he was corrupt and bribed, abused his power, and was really a big traitor, and his majesty asked His Majesty to punish him!"

Song Jiangyuan was the secretary of the Ministry of War, but his ability was really not suitable for the Ministry of War, after the fall of the Song Kingdom, he was transferred by Lin Nuo to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and he has been in office for seven years.

"Liu Anshi, who do you usually arrest and spray whom, but now you are looking for trouble with the official by chasing the wind and shadows, let me ask you, you said that the official was corrupt and abused his power, but there is evidence?"

Song Jiang frowned, and after hearing that Liu Anshi aimed the artillery fire at him, his temples burst out, and he was bored for a while.

He was not afraid of impeachment, but he was afraid of losing his position in the emperor's heart.

Over the years, he has made it very clear that he has never been liked by His Majesty, but firstly, he is an old man of Liangshanbo, who has made great achievements in the court, and secondly, he is good at figuring out the holy will, and in several major decisions, he has guessed the emperor's mind correctly and stood by His Majesty's side.

Therefore, even if His Majesty doesn't like him, he is not embarrassed by him, because His Majesty needs courtiers like himself, and because of this, although his position has been changed from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Industry, his rank has not dropped at all.

But if Liu Anshi, a troll, targets himself for a long time, and sprays himself a few words when he has nothing to do, then he has one of the few favorites in His Majesty's heart, I am afraid that it will fall to the freezing point.

And at this moment, Wu Yong, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Dali Siqing and other high-ranking officials, also came out and said: "The ministers impeached Song Jiang, and over the years, the ministers received many letters, saying that he abused his power and collected taxes according to the capitation, and if he paid a certain amount of money, he could be exempted from forced labor. ”

"In addition, when Song Jiang was also presiding over the construction of the post roads leading to various places in the imperial capital, he wantonly asked the squires from various places for money and grain to fill his own pockets!"

"Ministers, I implore Your Majesty to cure Song Jiang's sins in order to maintain the majesty of the Great Qian's law!"

Song Jiang took a deep breath and glanced at Wu Yong coldly, it was obvious that he would be impeached by several high-ranking officials in the court this time, and behind it, it was this guy who was making trouble.

In the past few years, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the right prime minister Lu Junyi is suitable for leading troops to fight, but he is not suitable for governing the country, so everyone knows that after Dali is also included in the territory of Daqian, the position of right prime minister may be vacant.

Song Jiang knew in his heart that the reason why Wu Yong, a sinister villain, would attack himself was to get out of the game in advance, a strong competitor for the right prime minister!

Song Jiang secretly hated in his heart, in fact, these days, he himself was also sending people to collect Wu Yong's handles, but unfortunately, he was not fully prepared, but Wu Yong came first.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged!" At this moment, Song Jiang knew in his heart that it was useless to say more, just shout injustice.

The emperor on the dragon chair is not an ordinary person, the struggle between the courtiers, he absolutely knows very well in his heart, whether he is guilty or not, in fact, it is completely in the thoughts of His Majesty.

"Zhu Wu, what do you think should be done with this matter?"

Zhu Wu did not hesitate at all, holding the jade plate and said: "Your Majesty, since there are many officials from the Ministry of Officials, the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Yushitai to impeach Song Jiang, the minister thinks that it is still necessary to try the first trial!"

Before Wu Yong and others impeached Song Jiang, although Song Jiang had fire in his heart, he still didn't have much fear, but at this moment, as soon as Zhu Wu, the left prime minister, spoke, it made Song Jiang's heart cold.

Who is Zhu Wu, that is the head of the hundred officials, and he is the most trusted person of His Majesty, as soon as he opened his mouth like this, he almost convicted him Song Jiang.

What frightened Song Jiang the most was actually His Majesty's attitude, and he even wondered if His Majesty's impeachment of Song Jiang this time was due to His Majesty's secret release of some kind of signal, so that even Zhu Wu, the prime minister, stood on the opposite side of Song Jiang.

Ruthless is the most emperor's family, Song Jiang really understands the meaning of this sentence at this moment, Your Majesty does this think that he Song Jiang is useless, and he wants to kick him out?

"That being the case, temporarily remove Song Jiang from the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and hand it over to the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Jinyi Wei for trial!"

Lin Nuo's words fell, and Song Jiang almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

Your Majesty, this is really going to do something to him Song Jiang!

......

After the court meeting was over, the hundred officials retreated, Lin Nuo got up and looked at the crown prince Lin Fan, and asked with a light smile: "How is it, what do you see?"

"Father, do you want to do something to Song Jiang?"

Lin Nuo smiled and shook his head, "Song Jiang is a scheming person, and ordinary people may not be able to control him." It is precisely because Wu Yong and the others understand this that they feel that I actually want to deal with this person so as to prepare for the future crown prince's accession to the throne!"

"Then father, do you want to get rid of Song Jiang?"

Today's Lin Fan is fifteen years old, and his biological father Lin Chong is tall, tall and mighty, and when he looks around, he also has the appearance of an emperor.

"Song Jiang, whether you want to stay or not, let's know next!"

Lin Nuo smiled and signaled Lin Fan not to be in a hurry, and after a while, Zhu Gui took a few brocade guards and pressed Song Jiang to the apse.

Lin Nuo sat upright on the dragon chair and didn't speak, but Song Jiang below, knowing that this was his last chance to live, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

"Your Majesty, the minister will not hide it from Your Majesty! The minister has indeed collected the poll tax, and those who have paid the money can be exempted from forced labor!"

"But the minister is not indiscriminately collecting poll tax, most of the objects collected by the minister are some powerless sons and brothers, these people, let them serve the conscription, there is no use at all, and even add to the chaos, it is better to collect some money and exempt them from conscription!"

"In addition, the minister did collect money and grain from the local squires when building the road, but the minister did not swallow the money privately, but all of it was used to build the road, and the road repair fee allocated by the treasury over the years is about 5,000 miles, but the minister relied on these extra money to build more than 3,000 miles!"

Lin Nuo still didn't speak, but the prince Lin Fan on the side couldn't help it, "You didn't embezzle the money for road construction, so where did the poll tax you collected before?"

"Your Majesty, the prince, Mingjian, those money, the ministers do not dare to swallow privately, these years, the royal family has built a number of palaces in various places, and the prince got married last year, and the Ministry of Industry also built a prince's palace, at that time, the treasury allocated money and grain was not enough, in order to make the prince's palace perfect, those extra money were all in the previous poll tax!"

Huh? This matter also involves me, the prince?

Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at his father on the dragon chair, and didn't know what to say for a while.

And at this moment, Lin Nuo finally spoke, staring at Song Jiang with indifferent eyes without blinking, and said, "I will ask you one last time, did you really not take a cent of that money?"

"Think it through, and then talk back to me!"
