There was a court meeting the next morning.
As soon as Xu Min arrived at the Golden Throne Hall, she felt that many people were looking at her with anticipation.
When she looked over there in confusion, these colleagues quickly retracted their mocking looks, which made Xu Min very angry.
In the distance, several ministers gathered together and talked in a low voice.
"I heard that someone threw a stick contaminated with the Five Grains Reincarnation Object into Xu Min's house yesterday afternoon?"
"That's right. When the servant in my mansion got the news and reported back, I almost laughed to death. The famous Lord Xu actually had such a day."
"Yes, I just don't know who the civilian who threw the stick is, otherwise I would reward her with a silver ingot."
"Hey, do you think Xu Min would smell?"
"Yue~ stop talking, let's stay away, it will be bad if the smoke gets to us."
"That's right."
So several ministers looked at Xu Min with disdain and took several steps back.
Xu Min was so furious, but she hadn't yet vented the anger that had accumulated over the past few days.
A solemn and majestic chorus resounded throughout the hall.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
All the important officials of the court hurriedly straightened their clothes, took the white tablets, and knelt on the ground respectfully to pay their respects.
"Greetings to my Phoenix. Long live my Phoenix."
Emperor Qingwu wore a black and bright yellow phoenix robe embroidered with a nine-tailed phoenix, and a twelve-taped crown with nine-tailed phoenix tassels on his head.
He sat on the Phoenix Throne with a stern and oppressive look.
"Everyone, please stand up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nanny Su's clear and melodious voice sounded, "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please adjourn the court."
As soon as she finished speaking, a minister came out from the crowd.
"Your servant Qin Rong has a report to make."
Emperor Qingwu waved his hand and said, "Approved."
"Your Majesty, I impeach the Minister of Personnel Xu Min for taking advantage of his position to embezzle and undermine the law for personal gain. This is his first crime.
Xu Min used his personal feelings to corrupt justice and commit corruption for personal gain. This is his second crime.
Xu Min has received the emperor's favor for many years, but instead of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country, he has been negligent in his duties and has been doing nothing. This is his third crime.
Xu Min..."
Qin Rong used sharp words and a righteous tone to eloquently impeach Xu Min for ten major crimes.
These include corruption, abuse of power and fraud for personal gain.
When he was the prefect of Yongzhou, he forced several men from good families to marry, occupied tens of thousands of hectares of land from the people, and secretly accepted money and property worth hundreds of thousands of taels from his subordinates.
He also allowed the commoner Xu Wei to mistreat the Sixth Princess Jiang Huan, deliberately making her useless.
When Qin Rong started to impeach Xu Min for the first crime, her face suddenly turned pale.
Cold sweat continued to drip down her forehead. At this moment, the uneasiness in her heart was magnified a hundredfold, and she couldn't calm down and think about how to defend herself.
"It is difficult to list all the deeds done by Xu Min, the Minister of Personnel.
If such treacherous ministers are not removed, the country will be in turmoil, the people will be in unrest, and this is unacceptable to heaven.
The minister Qin Rong petitions the Emperor to execute the lawful sentence, dismiss Xu Min from office, detain him, and investigate and punish him severely. "
Xu Min looked panicked, and fell to her knees with a bang, tears welling up in her eyes, and shouted.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent! Qin Rong, the Minister of War, has always been at odds with me. She impeached me for ten crimes. How do I know if Qin Rong's selfish desires are among these ten crimes?
Over the years, I have not only made great contributions to Dali, but I have also worked diligently and not slacked off for even a moment.
I have never done anything that Qin Rong said.
Please Your Majesty, please investigate and give me justice and innocence."
Just as Xu Min finished crying, another minister stepped out.
"Your Majesty, I also have a report to make."
Looking at Xu Min who was still crying, Emperor Qingwu's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Lord Xu, please get up first. I will investigate everything myself."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Xu Min got up, he still felt very uneasy.
The next second, her anxiety rapidly intensified.
Because the minister who just stepped out was the one who impeached her, Xu Min.
"I impeach the Minister of Personnel Xu Min..."
Next, several more people came forward, and they all impeached Xu Min.
Among these ministers, there are Jiang Yun’s people, and there are also people who are in the same boat with the Jin family.
This is what it means when a wall falls, everyone pushes it down.
Emperor Qingwu's already cold expression became even more indifferent. She closed her eyes slightly and listened to the ministers talking about Xu Min's crimes.
Gradually, an extremely cold look appeared on the corners of the emperor's mouth.
Xu Min was shaking all over and her vision was blacking out.
But he still held on to his breath and shouted "It's unfair".
After the ministers finished speaking, Emperor Qingwu opened his eyes, looking down with a majestic aura without anger.
"Pass on my decree that Xu Min, the Minister of Personnel, be dismissed from his post and taken to the Ministry of Justice for detention. Once the facts are investigated, he will be severely punished!"
"yes."
Xu Min shuddered and her eyes widened in disbelief.
As she continued to cry out for justice, the guards dragged her down from the Golden Palace.
Immediately afterwards, Emperor Qingwu issued another decree.
"Minister of Justice, Prince Ning."
"I am here, your son."
"I order the two of you to investigate the Xu Min case with full authority. You must investigate and handle it strictly."
"I, your son, accept your order."
Jiang Yun saluted respectfully, with a hint of coldness in his lowered eyes.
Oh.
Xu Min, the old woman, finally fell into her hands.
The evidence that the old woman Xu Min was corrupt, abused her power for personal gain has been lying in her hands for many years.
Now it finally comes in handy.
Before the morning court was over, Xu Min was impeached by many ministers in the court, and then dismissed from office by Emperor Qingwu. The news that he was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice spread throughout the palace in an instant.
