Chapter five hundred and sixtieth IX borrowing a knife
There was silence in the huge room. Whether it was the distinguished guests at the front tables, Zhu Houzhao in the back room, or the large group of people who had authority in the palace, they were all shocked by this sudden appearance.
I don’t know how long it took, but there was a whisper from the chief executive in the hall, followed by an uproar everywhere.
What he was actually suing was about Prince Ning Zhu Chenhao!
Zhu Houzhao even frowned slightly and asked directly to Gu Dayong, who was sitting next to him: "Prince Ning? I remember that I restored his bodyguard last year. Didn't they say that he was famous for his filial piety? How could he be like this?"
What does this man say is a heinous crime?"
Liu Jin didn't want the young emperor to go straight to ask Gu Dayong, fearing that the big boss of the West Factory would say something bad about Prince Ning, so he quickly said decisively: "Your Majesty, these officials must be proud of watching Prince Ning, so
This malicious and random slander is clearly done with ulterior motives! The same goes for Marquis Pingbei. On such a happy day, a person like this is allowed to talk nonsense..."
Before he even uttered the word "river", the young scholar outside had already said in a high-spirited voice: "Everyone present is the mainstay of the country. They should all know why the former King Ning was dismissed from the bodyguard. If you don't know
, I can openly re-examine this old account in front of you all! Starting from the Tianshun reign of Yingmiao, King Ningkang, the leader, has repeatedly impeached hundreds of officials. His crimes include listening to evil spirits and accumulating wealth like mountains and mountains.
Treating human life as nothing, hiring a princess instead, persecuting his own brother, violating laws and abusing the people, forcibly managing the tax department, and building the Cuihua Palace without permission. Because of these, Yingmiao just removed the guard of Prince Ning and changed the guard to
Nanchang Zuowei, subordinate to Jiangxi Dusi!"
At this point, he only paused for a moment and then continued to speak impassionedly: "But the leader, King Ningkang, did not reflect on this, but intensified his behavior. He also indulged in arbitrary actions, weaved dragon clothes, maimed people's lives, insulted the three commanders, and abused others.
Government officials, who allowed the military academy to disturb good people, and so on, have been impeached many times by officials. If it were not for Xianmiao's repeated forgiveness and concern for the friendship between relatives, even the title of prince would have been revoked! And now, King Ning has conferred the title of prince as a concubine.
I didn't know how to reflect on my ancestors' sins, but instead committed the same nonsense again and again. The palace took double the annual salary of the village land, replaced the glazed tiles and apportioned expenses to the local area, seized official land and people's property, killed and imprisoned innocent people... all kinds of illegal actions
, I have already written them all in this booklet!”
The young scholar took out a memorial from his arms, held it in his hand, and said word for word: "When the imperial edict was first issued to restore King Ning's bodyguard, many officials wrote in succession about this matter, but nothing happened.
There is no news after entering the sea. I will expose it again in public today. If no one in the court is willing to ask about Ning Fan’s harm to the people, if no one is willing to accept my report, then I can only go and expose it for the people of Jiangxi.
It’s time to beat the Dengwen drum!”
As soon as these words came out, everything was silent again. Xu Xun first glanced in the direction of Zhang Cai, and when he saw Zhang Cai gently stroking his beard proudly, he knew that the person he had been asked to arrange was Ying.
Here, looking at this young man in his early twenties who dared to speak uprightly to the court in such a place, he pondered carefully and vaguely guessed how Zhang Cai arranged it.
After all, it was similar to the method he used when he heard about Zhang Mao being plotted against him when he went to Jinling and provoked the students of Nanjing Imperial College to cause trouble!
I know, I know, but the whole show needs to be completed. At that moment, he smiled slightly and said: "You are so brave! Since you have the courage to hand me such a shameful trick on this great day of mine, you must have the courage to sign up.
Come!"
"Why don't you dare?" The young scholar in a gray scholar's shirt raised his head and said without retreating, "I'm Yang Shen!"
Although among the civil servants who came today, there were some influential figures from the older generation like Lin Han, some in the prime of life like Zhang Cai, and even some younger ones like Kang Hai who had not been in office for long, but overall they were still Wen Shaowu.
Many people were shocked when they just saw such a young man suddenly come into the room and talk. However, at this moment, when he signed up, the four people were in an uproar. The discussion was actually louder than before when Yang Shen accused Ning
Each of the king's crimes is even bigger...
"Is this Yang Shen who can compose poetry at the age of eleven?"
"That's right, he is Yang Tinghe's son and the proud disciple of Chief Assistant Li Xiya!"
"It's true that a young phoenix is better than an old phoenix. Yang Shizhai has always been upright, but I didn't expect that his son would be even more upright!"
Xu Xun heard every word of these discussions, not to mention the surprise. He instinctively glanced at Zhang Cai again and saw that the man was already drinking a small drink there leisurely and chatting with the people beside him.
Whatever his superior, Shangshu Lin Han, said, he couldn't help but praise Yang Shen. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Yang Shen in his heart.
Gao. Sure enough, Gao was able to directly set up a trap for the disciples of Yang Tinghe’s son Li Dongyang. After all, Jiang is so old!
Therefore, after looking at Yang Shen face to face for a moment, Xu Xun smiled slightly: "Okay, indeed a hero comes from a young age. Since you have the courage to accuse Prince Ning of his crimes in public today, and you have made such a trick, if
I don't dare to hand it to you, then I'm afraid everyone here will laugh at me for not having the courage! In a word, give it to me, and I guarantee that this thing will appear in front of the emperor as it is!"
When Yang Shenyi's stern words came to the end, Liu Jin couldn't sit still. If it weren't for the fact that the little emperor beside him was getting more and more frowning, he would have rushed out and pointed at the kid's nose and scolded him.
For a moment, this young guy didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. However, when his name was announced and the whole room started talking, he immediately calmed down.
Yang Tinghe’s son? Li Dongyang’s disciple? So, it wasn’t Xu Xun who set him up this time? To put it bluntly, today is a great day for Xu Xun to be promoted to an official position. How could he let a Mao on this happy day?
Did the head boy suddenly get into trouble? Unexpectedly, Li Dongyang kept snorting and Yang Tinghe kept silent, but the two of them actually pushed their son out to fight him in the ring!
However, when Zhu Houzhao heard the name Yang Tinghe at the same time, his reaction was different. Although he originally frowned when he heard it, he was a little doubtful, but when his name was announced, he heard from outside discussions that it was Yang Tinghe.
His attitude was completely different when he was his son. He almost stood up with his hands on the table and strode outside. It seemed that he was not satisfied with Xu Xun accepting the memorial in court, but he actually
They were planning to pick him up in person. Fortunately, Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong reacted very quickly. They stepped forward one from the left and the other to hug Zhu Houzhao's arms, and finally dragged him back.
Gu Dayong even poured a cup of tea himself and handed it to the angry Zhu Houzhao, saying in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Marquis Pingbei has already taken the tea. Don't be impulsive. If you turn around, you will be right in front of you."
Zhang Yong also quickly echoed: "Lao Gu is right. If Your Majesty goes out to receive such a memorial, what will the other people present think? Those who know say that you are diligent and love the people, and those who don't know don't know.
What names should I come up with to accuse you? What if some stupid young man comes out and points his nose at you to accuse you?"
Seeing that the little emperor was already hesitant, Zhang Yong lowered his voice and said: "Besides, today the emperor received the coupons from Pingbei Hou. In the future, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a crowd of people. They will all go to Pingbei Hou's house to hand over the coupons or complain about their grievances."
.How can this make you feel embarrassed? Yang Shen was young, energetic and ignorant. The emperor felt that his ambition was commendable, so he looked back at the document and issued a few words of praise. In addition, it was also appropriate to blame him for his mistakes, otherwise everyone would be like this in the future.
That’s going to cause big trouble!”
With Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong trying to persuade each other, and Ma Yongcheng, Wei Bin and Luo Xiang realizing that there was something fishy about the matter, they also came up to offer a few words of advice. Zhu Houzhao finally had to give up his previous words.
Impulsively, she sat down. Liu Jin wanted to open her mouth to say something several times. But she never found a suitable opening and could only gnash her teeth in her heart...
Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, just wait and see!
Although Yang Shen's appearance caused quite a stir in today's wedding banquet, who was Xu Xun? After receiving the memorial, he invited Yang Shen to be the chief, and sure enough, the other party agreed without hesitation.
The servants waiting on the side moved a chair, and Xu Xun pointed directly at Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua Xie Duo who were very interested and said: "Move to Mr. Lin and Mr. Zhang Duxian Xie. They were talking just now
There are too few young heroes, and now that I finally see one, I must be happy."
Although Yang Shen is young, compared to the even younger Xu Xun, if he sits next to him, he will inevitably feel a little strange. Now that he heard that Xu Xun arranged him among the three famous bosses, he immediately
His eyes lit up, and his mouth that was about to speak was tightly closed. When Lin Han and others took turns to test his knowledge and philosophical essays, he spoke without any stage fright. There were many people at the table.
He often looked at him with side eyes. And Xu Xun, today's protagonist, naturally did not lose his attention because of Yang Shen's appearance. When he raised his glass and toasted each table, for a while, he only heard the compliments. It took him a long time to finally
He found an opportunity to skip the banquet. However, when he sneaked into the next hall and took a look, he saw that Gu Dayong was alone.
"The emperor has left?" Xu Xun and Gu Dayong naturally did not know how to exchange polite greetings. They scooped up the memorial in their hands and shook it before laughing, "I also plan to present something on Yang Shen's behalf immediately."
"Your Majesty carried your daughter and walked around the courtyard. Everyone chased her out to accompany you. I'll wait for you here." Gu Dayong saw Xu Xun stunned. At that moment, he could only spread his hands and whispered, "Don't look.
I, if the wet nurse hadn't come to salute the emperor with your daughter in her arms, the battle just now would have made people sit on pins and needles. Fortunately, there was such a little guy to ease the atmosphere. Tsk, compared to today's noon, Old Liu's face looked different this time
It's even darker. Although I didn't directly point at his nose and scold him, the effect is almost the same. I have met Yang Tinghe, and although he is a very daring person, he still has a sense of propriety, unlike his son!"
Although Gu Dayong didn't say it directly, Xu Xun knew that Gu Dayong might have guessed something based on Gu Dayong's naivety, so he just smiled and sat down. He was sitting at the head table today, but he was sitting outside.
In front of everyone, he had to deal with many guests with different identities. Apart from drinks, he really didn't eat much. At this time, he didn't mind that the food and wine on the table had been touched, and he scooped out a few pieces while they were still warm.
He ate hot snacks three times to satisfy his hunger. Before he could finish eating them, he heard a burst of footsteps from behind. When he turned around to look, he saw Zhu Houzhao coming in with a smile, holding his baby daughter.
. But seeing the dangerous posture of the little emperor holding the child, he immediately jumped up.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please be careful..."
Seeing Xu Xun nervously opening his arms to protect him and even stammering when speaking, Zhu Houzhao burst into laughter for a moment. Then, he remembered that there were a group of guests in front of him, so he quickly closed his mouth, and then
He generously gave the child to Xu Xun, clapped his hands and sat down with a smile.
"Not long after this, my eyebrows look longer than when I was just born. She will definitely be a little beauty in the future. Hey, I wish I could hold my daughter in my arms anytime!" Zhu Houzhao smacked his lips, seeing
Xu Xun kept staring at his daughter. He didn't hear what he said at all. He suddenly said angrily, "Okay, okay, don't show off here that you have a daughter. Do you have a daughter? You have to do it while I'm here."
Why are you watching endlessly?"
"It's a pity that the time I held her in my arms after returning to the capital was probably less than an hour." Xu Xun sighed, and seeing Zhu Houzhao's face full of disbelief, he smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't believe me, the emperor can ask my family later."
Madam, I have been running from here to there all day long. It is rare that I come home early today. As a result, Mrs. Zhen Ninghou came and occupied my wife. She even hugged her and talked to me. As a father, I
No matter how miserable life is, there is no more.”….
Zhu Houzhao was originally unhappy. He finally calmed down and was happy for a while. He suddenly remembered business and quickly stretched out his hand towards Xu Xun. As if he didn't see the nervous look in Liu Jin's eyes. Xu Xun
Finally, he calmly took out the memorial from his arms and placed it lightly in Zhu Houzhao's hands. As expected, the little emperor took advantage of the absolutely bright light at this moment and browsed through ten lines at a time. Seeing the end
, Zhu Houzhao immediately looked at Gu Dayong and said: "Send people to go to Jiangxi immediately to check to see if it is what Yang Shen said!"
Seeing that Gu Dayong was about to open his mouth, Liu Jin knew that if he did not remedy the situation at this moment, there would be no chance of recovery, so he spoke decisively: "Your Majesty, after all, it has only been more than two years since the West Factory reopened. Now,
Needless to say, it would take a long time to leave Beijing to investigate such a major matter. As the East Factory is now ownerless, the servant wants to recommend Qian Ning to temporarily shoulder the burden. How about asking him to take the people from the inner factory to Jiangxi?
Take the opportunity to ask him to clean up the mess in the East Factory? However, Qian Ning is the most beloved general under the command of Marquis Pingbei, and he is always sent around like this..."
"Since Eunuch Liu is interested in him, let him go." Xu Xun followed Liu Jin's words, and seeing Liu Jin choked, he said with a smile, "Real gold is not afraid of fire, so he should be allowed to go."
