Chapter 517
After finally convincing Emperor Yuan to go to bed, Eunuch Hong felt at peace. When he walked out of the palace and looked at the waning moon hanging in the sky, he folded his hands on his chest and sighed. Tomorrow will not be peaceful again.
Qin Feng, who was not in the court, did not know what happened above the court. Fortunately, some of Xiao Lingyao's connections had been transferred to him. By the evening of the next day, he learned from Huang Tang what had happened - the former teacher and student
Turn against.
When he went to court today, Bai Beitang petitioned the Yuan Emperor in person to accuse the Tang Prime Minister of embezzling commercial taxes and reselling salt in the south and north of the Yangtze River. He even produced an account book. No one knew where the account book came from, but
After checking, it turned out to be the handwriting of Tang Xiang.
As a witness, Huang Tang was still in disbelief sitting in the box of Yuchun Tower. He came today in the name of thanking Qin Feng. After so many years of marriage, his wife is finally pregnant!
Mrs. Huang took the medicine prescribed by Qin Feng in the mood of giving it a last try. Although she was embarrassed, she also used the method instructed by Qin Feng during sex, as well as the unique massage technique.
Mrs. Huang's sunflower water did not arrive as scheduled this month, but she also had irregularities. She didn't take it to heart at first, but she didn't expect it until half a month later. Then she went to the doctor to ask for a pulse.
I knew I was pregnant.
"It's just because we haven't passed the third month yet, so the pulse is weak. We won't know whether the condition of the fetus is stable until the third month." Huang Tang has always been unpopular, and when he mentioned the future child, his face turned red: "Madam said she would like to thank Qin.
Sir, help me."
Huang Tang was a little embarrassed, so he took out the food box prepared by his wife. He was probably the only one in the entire Sui city who delivered food to his employer in Yuchun Tower.
Huang Tang also didn't expect that Qin Feng insisted on bringing him here to talk, so his face was hot now: "This is a little thought from the madam. I know that Mr. Qin is good at delicious food, so I hope you won't dislike it."
Qin Feng remembered that Mrs. Huang was a good cook, so the food must be good, so he hurriedly said: "Congratulations, sir and madam. Madam made it by herself. I am deeply honored. I will definitely taste it."
Huang Tang said with a smile: "I wanted to just let fate happen, but I never expected that I would meet this noble man, the Young Master, who would give us the blessing of having children."
Qin Feng heard Xiao Lingyao say that he and his wife were originally planning to give up and adopt an orphan. Fortunately, God opened his eyes and now they got what they wanted. He and his wife are so loving that it would be best if they could give birth to two people of their own flesh and blood.
This happy event was temporarily ignored, and Huang Tang returned to the previous topic: "Vice Prime Minister Bai's accusation against Prime Minister Tang caused an uproar, and there was a huge quarrel in the hall. That's why the handwriting was authenticated on the spot. Unexpectedly, it was really written by Prime Minister Tang.
"
Qin Feng had just woken up and felt that countless ants were crawling on his heart, biting his heart and soul. His plan was to make the Tang Prime Minister completely lose his power, but there was no doubt that the plan could not keep up with the changes. Bai Beitang's betrayal was
Is it a profit-seeking move or is someone instigating it?
He has no clue now, but there is no doubt that things have changed!
If the suspected crime becomes a real crime, will the Qin family be implicated? Thinking of his aunt who has not yet escaped, Qin Feng can't suppress his emotions.
Huang Tang, who was on the opposite side, whispered: "The sudden appearance of this ledger caused a lot of controversy. A group of loyal supporters of Prime Minister Tang questioned its authenticity and thought it was a forged handwriting. After all, how could such an important object fall into the hands of others?"
?”
"To be honest, Mr. Huang, I think so too. How could Prime Minister Tang commit this crime despite having been in the officialdom for many years? I don't know what Prime Minister Bai has to say."
Huang Tang thought of Bai Beitang coming out, and his voice was neither humble nor arrogant: "This was done by the teacher many years ago. To avoid future troubles, I had to destroy this thing. I had a stray thought and Li Daitao died. What I burned back then was
Fake ledgers."
"After the real account book fell into my hands, I have been keeping it carefully and not daring to show it to anyone. After much thought, I don't dare to deceive Your Majesty again."
When Bai Beitang said these words, the entire Zichen Palace was silent, and even Emperor Yuan's eyes became full of interest. Although there were only a few words, it was not difficult to see the subtle teacher-student relationship between Bai Beitang and Tang Xiang.
If there is no quarrel, why should he protect himself? Substitution first and burning leave behind are all Bai Beitang's tricks. He has already started to be on guard against his mentor. Why is this? The teacher and student clearly have their own agenda.
If Bai Beitang was clean, why would he have such a hand? It is true that the Tang Dynasty Prime Minister is in trouble now, but there is insufficient evidence to convict him. At most, he will lose his position and not die, but it is hard to say now. Selling an official position and reselling private salt are both major crimes.
!
Qin Feng closed his eyes and inexplicably wanted to curse, "You idiot Bai Beitang!"
"What did your Majesty say?" Qin Feng's heart ached. He had successfully planned to trap Tang Xiang in. He couldn't bear it and there were still people who wanted to add fuel to Tang Xiang's fire and make this matter even more intense!
Huang Tang paused and said: "What else can we do? The evidence has been laid out. I will submit the evidence to the three divisions for joint case handling. However, according to past experience, no results can be obtained in a short time. This is what Tang Xiang wants to do."
I have suffered a lot."
Qin Feng always felt that something was wrong. He tapped his finger on the table, shook his head and said, "No, this is not to convict him."
"Why do you say that, Master?"
"Whether it's the assassination of the eldest prince or conspiracy, they are all suspected crimes. The evidence is not sufficient, but this ledger wants to turn over an old case and make this old case solid?" Qin Feng thought to himself, this is not a modern society.
As long as Tang Xiang bites him to death and the handwriting is imitated, how about it?
These three cases are all unclear disputes of words, but compared to the previous two cases, the appearance of this account book will undoubtedly be the last straw that breaks Tang Xiang's mind. How will Tang Xiang choose, plead guilty and be punished, or what?
Qin Feng thought about it and finally raised his head, his eyes shining brightly: "This is to force Mr. Tang to give an explanation."
Explain? Huang Tang was a little confused about this statement. Just as he was about to ask a question, Qin Feng stood up and said, "If that's the case, that would be great. Let's see how Prime Minister Tang will react when he knows this."
Huang Tang tasted his words and finally came to his senses: "Is this what your Majesty actually wants?"
Qin Feng sighed: "This is just my personal guess, but if I am successful, Mr. Huang, please do not attract the attention of His Majesty in the future."
Huang Tang couldn't help but shudder. Thinking back to His Majesty's eyes full of interest today, he was clearly determined to win. Who dares to say that this drama of teacher-student antagonism was not expected by His Majesty, or even planned by His Majesty?
Shocked by his own guess, Huang Tang hurriedly shuddered. It is true that the king's heart is unpredictable, but if the king's heart is vicious, what about the officials?
In his congratulatory message to His Majesty, Mr. Cheng Wu said that he was a virtuous emperor who was rare to see in a hundred years. Is this true?
Qin Feng and Huang Tang each had their own thoughts, but Prime Minister Bai came for a while when he went to court. After leaving the palace, he went to Dali Temple. He did not see Zuo Pingdao, but there were arrangements there in advance. After seeing him, he
