"Hahaha! That's good!" Suddenly, Li Shimin stood up and laughed.
Everyone also woke up from this sentence and looked at Zhang San with very complicated eyes. This sentence was almost a naked scolding of these officials who did not care about the life and death of the people and only cared about their own pleasure. It was also Zhang San's response to those officials who slandered him.
, the most powerful counterattack.
Thinking about it, if this sentence is spread, and compared with Zhang San's contribution in Xuzhou, these officials who stood up to frame Zhang San will be nailed to the pillar of shame and reviled by others.
Cui Dian's face was gloomy. He thought that with so many officials standing up this time, he could give Zhang San another heavy blow. He didn't expect Zhang San to be so strong, nor did he expect that Fang Xuanling and others would stand up to support Zhang San.
This time, not only did the family lose several important positions in the court, but they may also be accused of falsely accusing a loyal minister. It can be said that this time is the heaviest loss for the family.
Kong Yingda and Yan Shigu also looked at Zhang San with admiration, and even more admired Zhang San's literary talents.
Xu Huang whispered a few times in Li Shimin's ear, and Li Shimin was even more happy. He said to the officials below: "The officials and people of Xuzhou submitted tens of thousands of people's letters to support County Uncle Zhang and ask for credit! At the same time, rain fell from the sky in many places in Xuzhou, which greatly relieved the situation.
A disaster."
Hearing what Li Shimin said, Cui Dian, Zheng Qing and others turned pale. Li Shimin would definitely not let go of this opportunity to smear the family. He would definitely publicize Zhang San's achievements in Xuzhou, plus Xuzhou officials and people's book of the people, Zhang
Even if San returns to Chang'an now, he can't cover up Zhang San's contribution.
On the contrary, the role played by Cui Dian and others in this process will definitely be criticized by the people, and the family has suffered a big setback this time.
"God bless our Tang Dynasty, congratulations to Your Majesty and congratulations to Xuzhou!" Fang Xuanling and others quickly shouted to celebrate that the drought was about to end.
At this time, Xu Huang also gave Li Shimin the Book of Wanmin and the document of Xuzhou Governor. Li Shimin opened it in public and asked Xu Huang to show it to the officials in front of the palace for circulation.
"Huang Xiaoyi, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, Zhao Yuan, a doctor in the Ministry of Punishments, and Zheng Qing, the imperial censor, ignored the facts and falsely accused Zhongliang. I have decided to reduce his official rank and demote him to a commoner!"
After hearing Li Shimin's decree and the officials whose names were read out, they immediately cried and screamed, as if they were mourning for their heirs.
"Cui Dian, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, will be fined three years' salary as a punishment. If he commits the crime again, he will be punished for several crimes together!" Li Shimin said again.
Cui Dian knelt on the ground, clenched his fists, and felt very regretful. He should not have listened to Zheng Xuan's words and confronted Li Shimin so aggressively. Zhao Yuan and Huang Xiaoyi were both his own people. They were both dismissed from their posts at this time, which made Cui Dian feel sad.
Bleeding.
Zhang San was very happy to see Li Shimin's punishment on several people, especially Zheng Qing's dismissal, which made Zhang San feel bad. This old guy impeached him again and again. Now it's better, and he will never do it again.
I'll see him in the court hall.
Li Shimin did not listen to the shouts of Zheng Qing and others, and waved his hands to drive these people away.
"Zhang San, the uncle of Wannian County, has made great contributions in disaster relief. He is rewarded with a reward of 50,000 yuan and a hundred bolts of silk."
Hearing Li Shimin's reward, Zhang San curled his lips. This fifty thousand "gold" is also fifty thousand copper coins, which is only fifty thousand dollars. Zhang San secretly complained that Li Shimin was stingy. However, what Li Shimin said immediately made Zhang San smile.
, all the civil and military officials in the hall were even more stunned.
"Since Zhang San has no father or brother, and he has reached the age of marriage, I will decide today to betroth Fang Qing's beloved daughter Fang Keying to Zhang San. Fang Qing, what do you think, Mr. Zhang County?"
"I do!" Zhang San said loudly.
Fang Xuanling's nose turned crooked when he heard this, and I hadn't even nodded yet.
"I thank the emperor for choosing a good match for my daughter!" Li Shimin had told Fang Xuanling about this last time, and Fang Xuanling naturally had no objection.
Everyone had their own little thoughts in mind and looked at Li Shimin, Zhang San and Fang Xuanling from time to time, guessing that Li Shimin had granted Zhang San a marriage. Is this a signal to everyone?
Li Shimin was very kind to him, and even became Fang Xuanling's son-in-law. This son will surely rise rapidly in the future. You must not offend him, and you must think of making good friends with him.
After the court meeting, all the officials congratulated Zhang San and Fang Xuanling and shouted that they would have a wedding banquet together.
"Uncle Zhang, please treat my student well in the future, otherwise I will definitely come to teach you a lesson." Kong Yingda said to Zhang San with a smile.
"You are still needed. I will destroy him when the time comes!" Although Fang Xuanling was very satisfied with the marriage, thinking that his precious daughter was about to get married, the look she looked at Zhang San also revealed a fierce look.
.
"I told you two not to scare County Uncle Zhang away!" Yan Shigu joked.
"Well, uncles, please rest assured. I will take good care of Keying and will not let her be wronged in the slightest." Zhang San looked at Fang Xuanling's expression, as if a good cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
"Remember what you said, and also remember to ask someone to come to the door to formally place the betrothal gift. Three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts are also indispensable. The jewel in the eye of our house will not be taken home by you easily." Fang Xuanling finished speaking.
Throwing up his sleeves and walking away.
"Haha! This old guy is probably secretly happy. Remember to invite us to your house for a wedding drink when the time comes!" Kong Yingda said with a smile.
"And me, I heard that your wine is better than the wine in Qujianglou. I want to try it then." Wei Zheng walked up from behind and said.
"Definitely. When the time comes, I will definitely sweep up the couch to welcome you. I also want to thank a few of you for speaking up and interceding for me today." Zhang San solemnly saluted and thanked a few of them.
"We are also telling the truth. You saved the victims from fire and water this time, so you should not be treated unfairly." Wei Zheng patted Zhang San on the shoulder and left.
Kong Yingda and the other three also said similar things and praised Zhang for his achievements in the past three years and that he would definitely have a bright future.
With the end of today's morning court, news about what happened in the court today was also spread. For a while, the people of Chang'an criticized Zheng Qing and others, and also praised Zhang San's actions, especially Zhang San's marriage to the emperor.
She is about to marry the prime minister's daughter, Fang Keying, and it has become a legend among the people.
…
"You bastard! This is too much bullying. I will send someone to take you back to Xingyang now. You don't want to stay in Chang'an for the time being."
When Zheng Xuan learned that Li Shimin had dismissed Zheng Qing, Huang Xiaoyi and others from their official positions today, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. In addition, now that Zheng Qing and others were labeled as framed Zhongliang, they became like rats on the street, and everyone shouted for beatings.
"Master, let's just forget it like this? Do you want to find Cui Shilang to make the total again? I don't want to go back to Xingyang!" Zheng Qing cried.
"I have already sent someone to invite him, but it's a pity that he refused to come. I think this incident also created a gap between us and him. Chang'an is not suitable for you to continue to stay now. Go back to your hometown to hide for a while. I will take care of this account.
Sooner or later, I will get it back." Zheng Xuan did not expect that things would turn into what they are now. At this time, he was exhausted both physically and mentally and was in a state of hardship.
