Cui Cen finally entered the palace, but he waited in the room for a night and did not see the emperor, and the next day Pingming passed down the edict, ordering that there was no need to meet him, and he went directly to the Zichen Palace to discuss it.

It's a bit of a joke.

But it's just playing, what are you going to do?

I asked you to come earlier, but you didn't come, and now that you are here, do you want to see you when you come?

Therefore, Cui Cen can only enter the Zichen Hall from Sima Gate again.

When he came, the door of the hall had just opened, and the officials waiting in front of the door looked a little strange when they saw Cui Cen.

But no one came forward to say hello.

There is no place in the world where the news spreads faster than in the capital, and yesterday's news is naturally known to the entire capital.

Naturally, everyone knows that the era of this Cui Xiangye is over, and what awaits him now is the final judgment.

And seeing him appear here, everyone also understood that it was not that he was still dead and not stiff, but that the emperor had completely mastered the situation, so he chose the court discussion, which seemed to be the most royal way, but was actually the most domineering way to end this power struggle.

At this time, who still comes to him, isn't it unpleasant for himself.

Not to mention others, even the imperial historian Cui Luan and his son Cui Wenhao did not look at Cui Cen's side.

But this is not surprising, everyone has already known that among the people who pushed the wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion this time, there is a credit to these two.

And Cui Wenhao is the first to bear the brunt.

On behalf of his father, he impeached Cui Cen for more than a dozen major crimes.

Although Cui Luan never came forward, Cui Wenhao's impeachment note was issued in his name, and now Cui Luan also appears here, which means that Cui Cen's real betrayal and family have left.

And Cui Cen naturally understands all this, but he doesn't know whether he is really calm or forced to be calm, at least Cui Cen is standing there without the slightest abnormality.

In addition to being a little haggard, his face is also more colorless.

When the door of the temple opened, he strode in first.

No matter what others think in their hearts, they can only follow, after all, Cui Cen still has the name of prime minister.

And leading the ministers to do things, this was originally one of the duties and powers of the prime minister.

Usually, everyone didn't feel abnormal, but today everyone followed behind Cui Cen, and they all felt a little weird in their hearts.

Not long after everyone stood still, Emperor Zhao Xin also came to the Zichen Hall after the waiters praised and sang, but what surprised the ministers was that it was not only the emperor who came, but also the Empress Dowager Zhao Cui.

Among the ministers, when they saw the queen mother coming with the emperor, they were all inexplicably in a commotion.

Except for a few who already know the details, most people still can't figure out the situation.

They all speculated about why the Queen Mother actually followed the emperor to the court.

At the same time, the emperor had ordered someone to sit next to the queen mother, and then respectfully asked the queen mother to sit down, and he also turned back to sit in front of the throne.

Cao Xiong, who was accompanying him, sang loudly: "The emperor is in the court, the princes have something to do and play early, and they have nothing to do to retreat from the court!"

After singing, he retreated to Zhao Xin's side again, Zhao Xin's eyes swept everyone, and finally his eyes fell on the Queen Mother Zhao Cui's body, and asked slightly: "The Queen Mother is coming to the court today, saying that it is a public case, but I have never asked before, what is the public case?"

Zhao Cui's face was expressionless, but he bowed slightly to return the emperor's salute, and then said indifferently: "The mourning family's coming to the dynasty today is indeed the case of the Lin family sixteen years ago, but this matter is not urgent, Your Majesty and the secretaries still take state affairs first." ”

Zhao Cuishi said it lightly, but the crowd couldn't help but feel a commotion again.

Except for a few people in the know, no one expected that the Queen Mother, who had not appeared in front of people for a long time, suddenly came today for the Lin case sixteen years ago.

Many people in the crowd had a strange look on their faces.

Everyone subconsciously went to see Prime Minister Cui Cen, but they didn't know if he had expected it, or if he was already in debt, anyway, there was still no expression fluctuation.

As if it were none of their business.

"I see. ”

Seeing Zhao Xin's brows frowning slightly, everyone immediately nodded and asked downward, "Zhuqing, do you have a performance?"

"The minister has his own music. ”

Before Zhao Xin's words fell, Taichang Shaoqing Feng Zhong took the lead and said proudly: "The minister's impeachment of Prime Minister Cui Cen for the twenty-four major crimes are all in the seal, please submit them to Your Majesty!"

With that, he reached out and took out a piece of music from his bosom and held it above his head with both hands.

Feng Zhong's impeachment of Cui Cen was not expected by everyone, but the speed was so fast that it still startled everyone, and many people were already eager to try, and the ministers who planned to take the opportunity to show their loyalty stomped their feet with hatred.

He scolded in his heart: "Feng Shaoqing, you are not kind, you have been here once before, the emperor has forgotten who can forget you, you can't let us once." ”

But at this time, it is useless to scold, you can only be angry that your mouth is lame, and no one opens it.

But this time, everyone has learned a lesson, and many people have already begun to buzz their lips to prepare for exercise, just waiting for Feng Zhong's performance to be presented, and after the emperor has seen it, he will ask again, and he will leave the class immediately.

You can't do the first, you can do the second.

Everyone thinks it is very good, but there are people who do not play cards according to common sense.

Everyone was preparing for the exercise, but suddenly they heard the front of the minister's class, and someone said: "Your Majesty, the minister Cui Wenhao also has this performance, and on behalf of my father, he will play it together, impeach Prime Minister Cui Cen for hiding private soldiers, and privately placing crowns and other serious crimes, all of which are in the seal, please Your Majesty." ”

"Poof~ Still with this?"

Those who were preparing for the exercise almost vomited blood, we have already prepared for the exercise, you still bring this, don't pay attention to the rules, what are you......

Cui Wenhao smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't want to, but he couldn't help it, others weren't in a hurry, he couldn't help it.

As a doctor of the imperial history, Cui Luan cannot be as "shameless" as him, so as a son of man, in order to protect the Cui family's heirs, in order to let his father not have to be this "jumping clown", he can only be a jumping clown.

Although he had already stood in line before, at this time, he didn't dare to let the emperor feel that he was only seeking compromise before, instead of really looking for the monarch.

And Cui Cen, who has always been unwavering, finally sneered this time and looked at him mockingly, "Acting for my father, is your 'my father' dumb, or is your 'my father' not above this court, and there are others?"

These words are really damaging enough, and the corners of everyone's mouths couldn't help twitching, and they said secretly: "Even my own brothers and nephews are not on my side, it seems that I am still a little sad about this Cui Xiang." ”

However, although everyone was a little disdainful of Cui Wenhao's actions, most of them could understand it.

And after him this time, everyone didn't dare to wait step by step, so they all stood up and said: "The minister also has a ...... play"

And almost without exception, Cui Cen was impeached.

What's even more interesting is that I don't know if everyone was prepared for it in advance, or if they should have paid attention temporarily, anyway, the crimes of impeachment are heavier than the other, and each is more than the other.

The most powerful one actually impeached Cui Cen for one hundred and eight counts, Zhao Xin looked at the Zhongsan doctor and was a little surprised, how can one hundred and eight articles be made up.

However, although he was very curious about what these charges were talking about, he was not interested in seeing them, so many of them, it was too dark to read them.

Immediately smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "I am also shocked that so many people have impeached Cui Xiang, but these don't have to be presented, just give them to Cui Xiang, I think he will have something to say." ”

As he spoke, he said to the Queen Mother Zhao Cuishi: "The Queen Mother, the Lin family case you said before, I have been in power for a short time, and I don't know what is going on?"
