Chapter 115 Condemnation

Returning to the government hall, Huang Laosi, sitting on the dragon chair, once again became Chang Chengyou, the lord of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Wearing jade crowns and changing into dragon robes, civil and military officials stood in two rows.

Today's meeting can be regarded as the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China. After returning from the "inspection" for half a month, the family was not allowed to go back, and they went directly to the palace to start the court. Anyone with a discerning eye could see it. The emperor waved the butcher's knife, most likely towards the workers.

Ministry people.

The Ministry of Works all criticized Chu Wensheng, the left minister. By coincidence, they mentioned Taowu Palace.

Everyone went to Taowu Hall for a walk again, and it was an eye-opener.

Many ministers secretly wondered how Chu Wensheng had such an exquisite heart with seven orifices. The palace was decorated with flowers. Not to mention that the emperor was satisfied, they were also satisfied. They were so satisfied that they were thinking about whether to go down to the court and the queen.

Mr. Chu is trying to get close to him and wants to see if he can spend a lot of money to let Chu Wensheng repair his own home. This house is so nice to live in, especially the big round bed. Hey, there are a bunch of people... hugging each other.

Pile pillows and have a good night's sleep. It's so beautiful.

In the Taowu Hall, the emperor not only praised Chu Wensheng, but also praised Liu Xun. The left minister and the minister were fine, so the unlucky one was probably the right minister. Regarding the Lan County official road and the military garrison, the emperor must have

Will not let go easily.

Sure enough, Huang Laosi went straight to the topic as soon as he sat on the dragon throne.

"I think the Taowu Hall is in good repair, but if that's the case, why does the Ministry of Works say that Chu Qing's family doesn't know anything about civil engineering?"

The meaning is tomorrow, you said that Chu Wensheng was an outsider, but the result is that the palace he built is high-end and classy. What does this mean? There must be an explanation.

No need to name names, it was Hiroshi Shang who said this, and it was he who the emperor looked at.

When Guan Haishang left work, he knelt down with sweat all over his back: "Your Majesty, don't be confused, don't be confused. Although Mr. Chu has built this Taowu Hall, the Ministry of Works built it, as well as official roads, garrison guards, granaries, and post-disaster buildings.

…”

"Asshole!"

Huang Laosi was not angry even if he didn't mention this matter. But when he mentioned it, he was filled with anger: "Who built the official road of Lan County?"

"Yes...he is an official from our Ministry of Industry."

"I'm asking you who is responsible."

"The Ministry of Household Affairs allocated money and food, and after handing it over to the Ministry of Works, the minister approved the note, and then asked Chu Wensheng, the left minister, to let Chu Wensheng... let him lead the craftsmen..."

Liu Xun left work and said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty is asking who is the acceptance official."

Hiroshi Shang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "I'll be the official."

Huang Laosi narrowed his eyes: "Tunbingwei, who checked and accepted it."

"I'm a lower official."

"So..." Huang Laosi's voice became colder: "Who caused the collapse of the granary in Weijiang?"

Guang Haishang's face was full of horror: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with Wei Chen. Wei Chen has heard that the merchants who provided the materials seem to be familiar with Chu Wensheng, the left minister."

Chu Wensheng gritted his teeth and had an angry look on his face. Just when he was about to speak, the emperor smiled and said lightly: "Are you familiar with Chu Qing's family?"

As soon as the word "Qing family" was spoken, the officials also looked strange.

The word "Qing family" is thought-provoking.

Huang Laosi nodded slightly to Sun An beside him. The old eunuch bent down and picked up the Qianqiying secret letter on the imperial case, and then walked to the bottom of the steps.

"Wanfu Wood Shop, the owner behind it, is the director of the Ministry of Works, Hiroshi Gundam."

It's like being struck by lightning in the sea.

The old eunuch continued: "Han Yonggui, the owner of Nanshi Carriage and Horse Racing Company, spent two thousand guan on carriages and horses, but he took a detour to Hanchang Mansion to haul wood and then sent it to Weijiang. It was more than a month in vain."

"Xu Xun, the director of the Ministry of Industry, took leave at the beginning of the year and went to Weijiang. His brother-in-law is Weijiang..."

Before the old eunuch could finish speaking, Heng Haishang collapsed to the ground, his face turned earth-colored.

Sun An turned around, Huang Laosi was too lazy to let the old eunuch think about it anymore, and said in a deep voice: "The collapse of the Weijiang granary, cutting corners, engaging in malpractice for personal gains, and embezzling government funds. Twenty-seven people were involved in the case, thirteen of whom were officials from the Ministry of Industry, and six

They are Weijiang local officials and the eight are businessmen..."

Having said this, Huang Laosi slapped the emperor's desk: "Hang Haishang, do you really think that all my Qianqiying are just like you? How dare you deceive me now? These twenty

Among the seven, which one is involved with Chu Wensheng, they are colluding with you, Guanghai Shanghang!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Everyone's names were already mentioned, but how dare Hong Haishang dare to quibble and kowtow repeatedly: "Wei Chen knows his fault, Wei Chen knows his sin, it was Wei Chen who ate lard and became greedy, and that's how...that's what happened

Your Majesty, forgive me for this great misfortune. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Excuse me?" Huang Laosi's voice became colder and colder: "Lan County official road, Tunbingwei, Weijiang Granary, and Nanxun Palace were all built by you, Guang Haishang. Come and tell me, which of the civil engineering projects you handled?

Nothing went wrong!"

"Wei Chen, Wei Chen knows his crime."

"Palace Guard!"

Huang Laosi shouted angrily, and two guards ran in and knelt down on one knee.

"Where is the Ministry of Etiquette!"

The Minister of Rites did not go to court, so the right minister stepped forward.

Huang Laosi said again: "Where is the punishment department and where is the official department?"

Two veterans also stood up.

Huang Laosi stared at Hong Haishang, who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, with a gloomy tone.

"The Ministry of Rites took away his jade belt, and the Ministry of Officials took off his official robe. The palace guards took Guang Haishang to the jail of the Ministry of Punishment. The Ministry of Punishment came out of the palace, returned to the Yamen Office, and took all the people involved in the case to me, one person at a time.

Don’t let it go!”

There was already blood on Hiroshi's forehead, and he could only kowtow mechanically and beg for mercy at the top of his lungs.

Several officials from the Ministry of Works collapsed on the ground, their faces as pale as paper.

Several more palace guards came in, including Hiroshi Shang, a total of five people, and they were all dragged out.

The ministers looked on with cold eyes, and no one interceded.

They had expected this situation, but they did not expect that the one who was convicted would be the right servant Hiroshi Shang, who had always said that Chu Wensheng was the culprit. On the contrary, Chu Wensheng, who had been criticized recently, was safe and sound.

Several ministers who were good friends with Hong Hai were trembling in fear, fearing that the emperor or Sun An would call their names again.

"The Ministry of Industry really makes me feel cold."

The emperor's anger had not yet been vented. He glanced at Liu Xun and others and snorted coldly: "Liu Xun, you are the minister of the Ministry of Industry. You cannot escape the blame. Half a year's salary will be deducted!"

Liu Xun was stunned.

Just deduct half a year’s salary?

Looking at Huang Laosi with a cold face, Liu Xun opened his mouth but stopped talking.

Why don't you remove my arms or chop off my legs, otherwise I won't feel at ease.

Huang Laosi ignored him at all, and looked at Chu Wensheng: "Chu Wensheng has done meritorious service in repairing the Taowu Palace. As a minister on the left, he allowed his subordinates to enrich their own pockets. If there is any mistake that is not investigated, he will be fined three months' salary."

.”

Wei Changfeng smiled, all the things Chu Wensheng had done before were overturned.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Chu Wensheng suddenly fell to his knees: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, but I refuse to accept it."

Huang Laosi immediately became angry: "You still dare to dissent, why are you dissatisfied?"

"Your Majesty can demote minor ministers, but cannot deduct their salaries."

Huang Laosi was stunned for a moment.

Chu Wensheng raised his head and looked directly at the emperor.

No wonder Lao Chu is anxious, the so-called deduction of official salary does not mean not paying wages in the next few months, but direct fines.

Lao Chu still had money, but he had already bought land to give Chu Qing a way out, so he was anxious.

You can fire me and fine me, but you can't!
