It’s still the same, refresh after a while and no repeated deductions will be made~~
The head of the Account and Finance Department actually stood up at this moment and took out an account.
This made Sun Kejian stunned for a moment.
Sun Kejian participated in the impeachment of Lu Gao more than a dozen times.
But in the end they all ended in vain.
The reason is because there is no evidence.
But now, there is not only evidence, but also such solid evidence.
No matter how stupid Sun Kejian is, he has realized something now.
So at this moment, Sun Kejian chose to remain silent.
Lu Gao looked at the head of the finance department who took out the account book in surprise.
Because Lu Gao knew very well that it was impossible for the head of the accounting department to get it.
Now that he has it, it can only prove that the person closest to him betrayed him.
The eunuch brought the account book up and gave it to Wu Zhao for review.
After Wu Zhao read the account book, he was not as angry as he imagined, but said to Ning Chen: "Ning Chen, do you have anything else to say?"
If there was anything to say at this time, Ning Chen just wanted to say 'thank you'.
Because in just a short while, Ning Chen's [Niege] point has exceeded his [Loyalty] point, reaching more than a thousand points.
Multiply one thousand points by one hundred, that is more than one hundred thousand.
600 points is one month, and 7200 points is one year.
With more than 100,000 [佞] reputation points, I can easily live for more than 20 years.
And this is not the end yet, because Sun Kejian and the other censors are still frantically contributing points to Ning Chen.
Ning Chen discovered that Sun Kejian and the other censors were really fierce in attacking traitors.
Let's put it this way, the [Niege] points that Sun Kejian can provide by himself are approximately equal to the sum of the [Loyalty] points that two girls from Lanxiang Pavilion can provide to themselves.
There were so many censors and officials throughout the dynasty, and the points they provided to Ning Chen were really impressive.
In comparison, civil servants like Lin Dunxin and others have obviously weaker combat effectiveness.
Especially those in the household department, they are simply negligible.
Ning Chen felt that they might even thank him.
Ning Chen feels that a reversal of around 3,000 today is not a problem at all.
It's more than 3,000 points. If you convert it, that's tens of thousands.
There is absolutely no problem in living for another fifty or sixty years.
"Ning Chen, I'll ask you something again." Wu Zhao saw that Ning Chen didn't answer for a long time, so he asked in a more serious tone.
Ning Chen quickly put away the smile on his lips and said in a deep voice: "I am just doing my job conscientiously. I have nothing to say!"
"Ning Chen, you are so arrogant. How can you have the nerve to say these four words: "do your duty"!" When a censor heard Ning Chen's words, he was really fired up.
Then some junior Hanlin officials from the Hanlin Academy who were qualified to come to court began to quarrel with Ning Chen as if they had been given blood.
The less Ning Chen said anything, the happier they became in their fight.
Aren't you, Ning Chen, willing to hold grudges? I'll let you take enough of them today. I'll see how you make a comeback today.
Ning Chen kept his head lowered, not because he didn't want to raise his head, but because Ning Chen was worried that he would not be able to help laughing.
"Snapped!"
There was a crack of a whip, and the sound suddenly disappeared.
Since Ning Chen had nothing to say, Wu Zhao looked at Lu Gao: "Lu Gao, what do you have to say?"
Lu Gao stepped out and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Lu Gao pleads guilty. However, the crimes committed by my Majesty Lu Gao are far more than what is written in this small ledger."
When Ning Chen heard this, he was slightly shocked.
"Does this also involve self-destruction? In order to deal with Wu Zhao, Lin Youwei was ruthless enough and even asked his son-in-law to self-destruct.
But this is better, this is more stable."
Wu Zhao said to Lu Gao with no emotion or anger on his face: "What other crime do you have?"
Lu Gaodao: "Your Highness, I would like to ask if it is recorded in this account book that in the tenth year of Emperor Shun's reign, when I was the head of the Jin Department of the Household Department, the current head of the Jin Department bribed me five thousand taels of silver."
The current head of the finance department did not expect that Lu Gao would blow himself up first when he came up, which made the head of the finance department a little panicked.
But fortunately, he knew that the account about him had been destroyed.
Wu Zhao flipped through it and said, "There is no record."
Lu Gao nodded and continued: "Your Highness, I would also like to ask if there is any record in this account book. In the eleventh year of Emperor Shun's reign, when I was the head of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the current right minister of the Ministry of Works accepted a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver from me.
.”
After hearing this, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry paled obviously.
But he is also very stable, because he knows that this item about him is not in the ledger.
Wu Zhao flipped through it again and said, "There's nothing on it."
Then Lu Gao continued to speak and continued to name names.
Regardless of whether he paid the bribe or accepted the bribe, Lu Gao checked them all.
If there were only one or two at the beginning, everyone would think it was normal.
But as Lu Gao spoke to more and more people, those in the Lin Party felt something was wrong.
As for those Yushi Qingliu, they were all shocked.
Just for a while, they heard that the total amount of bribes was more than 150,000 taels.
One can imagine how much this stimulated these censor Qingliu.
Furthermore, Ning Chen was also classified as a corrupt official in their minds.
Ning Chen looked at the flying [nice] point, but couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth.
This has exceeded 5,000 points and is already heading towards 6,000 points.
Ning Chen really wanted to know if he could directly turn over 10,000 points after Lu Gao blew himself up.
Then during settlement, one million will be settled directly.
This immediately made Ning Chen feel happy.
"Your Majesty, Lin You, is not guilty. Please punish me!" Lin Youwei did not let Lu Gao continue to go crazy. He quickly stood up and stopped Lu Gao from going crazy.
"What crime did Lin Shangshu commit?" Wu Zhao asked Lin Youwei meaningfully.
Lin Youwei lowered his head and said, "I have neglected my duty. I never expected that such a huge corrupt person would exist under my rule. I ask Your Highness to punish him."
Wu Zhaodao: "You are indeed guilty, but I want to hear what Lu Gao has to say first."
Lu Gaodao: "Your Highness, I have committed too many sins, and I'm afraid I won't be able to finish them today.
It is nothing more than the sins of ministers and ministers, and the accounts that flow in and out through the hands of ministers.
The places where bribes were taken and given, as well as the people including the time, etc., were all listed in the memorial I gave to His Highness the day before yesterday."
Ding!
Hearing Lu Gao say that there was a more detailed account and that it had been handed over to Wu Zhao, this made many officials in the court feel their hearts skip a beat.
What's happening here.
Instead of talking, why don't you just sacrifice Lu Gao?
Why did Lu Gao blow himself up and take them all with him?
And what happened to the ledger?
Wu Zhao said calmly: "I have read the account book you gave me, and it is indeed shocking.
I just have a doubt.
You should know that if you hand over this account book, you will definitely die, but why do you still hand it over to me?"
Lu Gao said loudly: "Because of Lord Ning."
"Because Master Ning didn't receive a penny from me.
Because Lord Ning, let me see what a true loyal minister should look like?"
"Because I want to be the third kind of official like Lord Ning."
"Because Master Ning gave me a chance, I want to be an innocent person in an upright and upright manner. Even if I die, I want to die in a clean and honest manner."
"I don't want to disappoint Lord Ning's trust and expectations for me!"
Lu Gao's series of parallels made Ning Chen, who was immersed in joy, stunned.
"You...you are so slanderous!" Ning Chen raised his head and said with red eyes.
When Lu Gao heard the words "spitting people", he subconsciously looked at the officials he named.
But after looking around, Lu Gao found that it was not them.
Finally, Lu Gao locked his eyes on Ning Chen, who was excited and had red eyes.
Seeing Ning Chen who was so excited, Lu Gao's expression was slightly startled.
Lu Gao could understand other people's shouting and taunting, but why was Ning Chen so excited at this moment?
Fortunately, Lu Gao reacted quickly: "Master Ning is right. Those criticisms and slanders against you are all slander. Lu can confirm it for Master Ning."
Ning Chen pointed at Lu Gao excitedly: "I mean you are slanderous? When did I teach you to be an upright official!"
Lu Gao:……
Ministers:......
What is this situation? Why does Ning Chen still want to taint himself?
Just when everyone thought there was a story here, Lu Gao said excitedly: "Master Ning is indeed very righteous!"
"Even at this moment, Lord Ning, I hope everyone understands that it was me who woke up on my own, rather than being awakened by you, Lord Ning. I hope this can alleviate Lu's guilt."
After saying this, Lu Gao saluted Ning Chen directly: "Master Ning, if Lu has another life, Lu must be an upright and good official like Master Ning."
Look at Lu Gao, he has to use his own life to clear his name.
Ning Chen wished he could go over and stab Lu Gao to death right now.
"Don't talk nonsense here, I never taught you to be an upright official!" Ning Chen was so excited that his body was shaking.
Lu Gao sighed and said: "Lu has accepted Master Ning's kindness. However, Lu has such a sinful qualification that he will never have the chance to listen to Master Ning's teachings again."
"What did I teach you? Don't slander others' innocence here!" Ning Chen would not admit this kind of thing even to death.
The [Nieve] point that you can see must not be ruined by this sudden appearance.
But Lu Gao made up his mind to clear Ning Chen's name.
As a result, Lu Gao repeated the exact words Ning Chen said to him on the spot, word for word.
"Master Ning knew that I was a corrupt official, but he still thought that I still had some merits.
He was willing to give me a chance to change my ways, and Mr. Ning even personally reminded Lu that Lu might have started a fire in the backyard.
Sure enough, after Lu returned home, he discovered that Lu's wife, the daughter of Lin Shangshu, had done so many dirty things behind Lu's back.
Lu can only be grateful to Master Ning.
I also ask Mr. Ning not to excuse me, Lu is willing to accept the trial that belongs to Lu."
Some of what Ning Chen said to Lu Gao before seemed to be a joke, but after Lu Gao's explanation.
In addition, Lu Gao did indeed have a fire in his backyard, and Lu Gao finally blew himself up on the spot.
From this point of view, it was really Ning Chen who awakened Lu Gao.
Let Lu Gaofan wake up.
Ning Chen looked at Lu Gao and was already trembling with anger.
How could this smiling, seemingly loyal guy stab someone in the back?
But Ning Chen had no way to refute. Ning Chen just said casually at that time, who knew that Lu Gao's wife really cuckolded him.
Seeing Sun Kejian looking at his son-in-law with a pleased expression, Ning Chen looked at his points again, and sure enough, they had begun to reverse.
For such a stable situation to be reversed, Ning Chen really felt that he was not made to be a sycophant.
Looking up at the top of Jinluan Palace, Ning Chen sighed deeply.
There was no other way. Lu Gao had to sacrifice his life to clear his name. Besides lying down, what else could Ning Chen do?
Lu Gao is not afraid of death, so what else can he threaten him with?
The key is that Ning Chen really didn't expect that there would be so much going on in Lu Gao's backyard.
Ning Chensheng looked at the ceiling helplessly. In the eyes of many people, it became the most beautiful helplessness.
This is the helplessness of a person who is willing to wake up because he failed to protect himself.
"Master Ning, you are truly a man of high righteousness."
"I really didn't expect that Master Ning's seemingly treacherous behavior actually hid such a deep meaning."
Listening to these discussions, Ning Chen felt like dying.
Of course Ning Chen didn't believe that Lu Gao would suddenly blow himself up on the spot, but now it has happened.
【佞】The point has been reversed.
"Your Highness, I am willing to plead guilty and obey the law." Lu Gao knelt down and kowtowed, expressing his stance to Wu Zhao.
Wu Zhao said calmly: "Since the first person selected by Ning Aiqing has already performed like this, I really want to see how the second person who has been chosen will perform like this.
.
This case will be handed over to Cao Xing of Dali Temple for investigation, and I will get a result within five days."
I heard that Wu Zhao handed over this case to Cao Xing.
Everyone involved in the case has changed his mind.
Cao Xing, in Dali Temple, is synonymous with the Demon Cave.
When Cao Xing tries a case, it does not depend on your official position. On the contrary, the higher your official position is, the more energetic Cao Xing will fight.
Any criminal who arrived at Cao Xing's place would be willing to give up. Even the dozen or so people who were beaten to death confessed their guilt before they died, but they just wanted to have a good time.
At this time, some smart people have already seen something through this arrangement.
Especially those censors who have very good brains.
In their opinion, this was a scene between His Highness, Lu Gao and Cao Xing.
Of course, in this scene, Ning Chen is the protagonist.
As for the real purpose of this scene, it remains to be seen, but they have already seen the general outline.
Sun Kejian will not change Ning Chen's real good or bad situation immediately. He will still wait and see how everything will settle down in five days.
But Lin Youwei, the Minister of Household Affairs, is definitely not willing to let this happen at this time.
Playing dirty.
Then the fish will die and the net will be broken!
Lin Youwei was furious and said directly to Lin Dunxin: "Prime Minister Zuo, please speak for me. Wasn't this planned by us together?"
Lin Dunxin looked at Lin Youwei who had completely lost his sense of control, and said in a very calm tone: "When did I have a plan with you?
If Lu Gao hadn't found me, I wouldn't have known that the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry had become corrupt to such an extent.
Lu Gao is still His Highness whom I brought to you. Did you say that I was discussing this matter with you?"
Lin You looked at Lin Dunxin uncertainly. He knew that he was the one who was sacrificed in this confrontation.
Lin Dunxin really joined forces with Wu Zhao. Even if he loses a thousand to himself, he will also hurt the enemy 800!
But the key issue is that Lin Dun believed that he had two thousand, but he really only had eight hundred.
"Lin Laogou, you are really insidious. I lost to you this time, but you will never get any benefits." Lin You didn't know that he was being sacrificed, so he simply risked his life.
Lin Dunxin did not respond to Lin Youwei's abuse.
Wu Zhao also seemed to have lost his memory. He didn't react until Lin You finished scolding him, and then asked Qian Niuwei to come in and drag away Lin Youwei and all those who interfered with the case, including Lu Gao of course.
After experiencing such a turmoil, it was natural that the meeting could not continue.
Wu Zhao did not continue to test everyone's mentality. After everyone was dragged out, he was ready to announce the dispersal of the court.
"Your Highness, I would like to take a leave of absence." Ning Chen, who was tired, said in advance before Wu Zhao spoke.
Wu Zhao glanced at Ning Chen and said, "Ning Aiqing has been taking exams for many days. It's really hard. I will allow Ning Aiqing to take three days off."
Ning Chen shook his head: "Your Highness, three days are not enough. I would like to ask for ten days' leave."
Wu Zhao frowned: "Ten days? Why?"
Ning Chen said: "Your Highness, I feel that my martial arts may be about to break through again, so I asked for ten days' leave in advance."
Stop loss!
At this time, you must find a way to stop the loss.
Sure enough, when Ning Chen said that he was going to make a breakthrough in martial arts.
【佞】Point’s flop rate dropped rapidly.
There was no way, Sun Kejian and the others could accept it. It was Confucianism that inspired Lu Gao.
But Sun Kejian and the others couldn't accept a martial artist.
Wu Zhao heard that Ning Chen was about to break through again, so he asked: "Ning Aiqing, I remember that you seemed to have just broken through to the ninth level."
Ning Chen nodded: "That's right, but I did it at the eighth and ninth levels at the same time. I used to practice the fake ones at the ninth level, but now I think the eighth level is almost there, so I should also fix the fake ones at the eighth level."
The eighth and ninth grades are cultivated together.
There are no such examples.
But as fast as Ning Chen, it seems that it really hasn't happened yet.
Wu Zhao glanced at Ning Chen, but instead of embarrassing Ning Chen, he agreed to leave on the spot.
After Ning Chen was granted leave, the officials began to withdraw from the court.
After leaving the Jinluan Palace, going down to Danqi, and crossing the Jinshui Bridge, we were about to leave the palace.
A group of generals suddenly became lively.
One by one, they looked at Sun Kejian and the other imperial officials: "Did you see that Lu Gao was enlightened and impressed by our martial arts?"
After one or two such instances, Ning Chen was used to it.
However, Ning Chen must firmly oppose this kind of behavior that puts money on his own face.
"I'm not a martial artist. When I call Lu Gao, I use my brain, not my martial arts." Ning Chen replied bluntly.
Looking at the smug officials over there, Ning Chen also said politely: "You don't have to be proud.
At least they can still react. If you haven't reacted, your brains are not as good as theirs."
"Ning Chen, you go too far to deceive others. You actually compare us with these warriors!"
A young Hanlin said emotionally.
For these scholars, it would be a humiliation to compare their brains with those of a martial artist.
Ning Chen glanced at the young Hanlin, took out the small notebook he kept on holding grudges from his sleeve, found the young Hanlin's page, and wrote down another entry below.
This young Hanlin remembers this little book of revenge by Ning Chen.
Seeing Ning Chen starting to hold grudges again, his expression changed on the spot.
He really couldn't understand why Ning Chen went to court with such a small notebook that held a grudge.
Why bring this.
If he didn't bring this, Ning Chen wouldn't know what he could bring.
"Ning Chen, everyone is an official in the same court, so you are too petty, aren't you?"
"Everyone debates with the DPRK, and everything is to make Dawu better."
…
Ning Chen didn't answer the little Hanlin's words at all.
Instead, he said to himself: "In the first year of Fengyuan, on August 23, a Hanlin with a pockmarked face scolded me for having a small belly and chicken intestines.
I was very angry. When I became a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, I would ask him to clean the toilet without giving him tools."
Xiao Hanlin's face turned pale after hearing Ning Chen's words to himself.
If you are not given tools, how can you clean the toilet by yourself?
No, why should I think about cleaning the toilet!
When the little Hanlin stopped talking, Ning Chen looked around at everyone: "I'm going on vacation soon. If you want to scold me, do it now while you have time."
Ning Chen is being favored now. It is obviously unwise to go against Ning Chen at this time.
And they really believe that Ning Chen's little book of revenge will be fulfilled in the end.
Seeing that no one had any objections to him anymore, Ning Chen swaggered on the spot and left with the pace of not recognizing his relatives.
After Ning Chen left, many people hated Ning Chen.
However, more people are thinking about how this storm of Lu Gao's self-destruction will end.
Many people asked Lin Dunxin for advice, but Lin Dunxin said very directly that he did not know how this matter would end.
They really didn't believe a word Lin Dunxin said.
This matter was obviously a conspiracy between Lin Dunxin and Wu Zhao. Lin Dunxin said that he didn't know, and only a fool would believe it.
If Ning Chen said that he didn't know, they might all believe it.
Because judging from Ning Chen's performance, it seems that he really doesn't know the conspiracy between Wu Zhao and Lin Dunxin.
It is precisely because of this that when Ning Chen pushed Lu Gao and Cao Xing, Ning Chen really seemed to be very righteous.
After Ning Chen returned home depressed, he asked four maids to prepare a medicinal bath for him.
When it comes to breakthrough, we must break through and show them.
The stop loss must be stopped immediately, while the [佞] point is still a little more than the [Zhong] point.
Ning Chen soaked his whole body in the medicinal bath, feeling the medicinal liquid continuously stimulating the energy in his body.
I closed my eyes and reviewed the entire incident involving Lu Gao.
Ning Chen was not interested in the truth of the matter at all.
Ning Chen was just looking back to see where his mistakes were in the Lu Gao incident.
How should we avoid such mistakes in the future, and how should we properly act as a sycophant?
As for the truth behind the Lu Gao incident, Ning Chen has now seen it very clearly.
