Chapter 529
Chen Zongwen.
With a "thud," the memorial fell to the ground.
Since he was going to bring Yunxi back, how could he not investigate Yunxi's adoptive parents? And once he did, he learned their names.
Chen Zongwen...
Xun Ze is Chen Zongwen, who is also Yunxi's adoptive father.
The emperor took in his reaction: "Yunqing, if you remember, tell me about it."
He was very curious.
For something to make that old man, who has been retired for many years, so angry that he wrote a memorial to the throne cursing people, must be a very big deal.
Yun Changliang forced a smile: "Your Majesty, these are merely family matters, hardly worth discussing with you..."
"Oh?" The emperor raised an eyebrow. "You saw it too. Xun Qing said he wanted to dismiss you from your post. Although he has been away from the capital for many years, he still has a lot of connections in Luoyang. Judging from this memorial, Xun Qing may have already contacted everyone he can. Just wait and see in a couple of days."
Upon hearing the emperor's words, it would be a lie to say that Yun Changliang was not flustered.
Xun Ze had many friends in the court, and his students were all becoming successful. If what the emperor said was true, then he...
He didn't speak, and the emperor wasn't in a hurry. He ordered the eunuch to bring up the memorial and read it again.
That volatile temper... it's definitely a familiar feeling.
No wonder he felt that Duan Huaichuan's writing style was somewhat familiar; it was exactly the same as Xun Ze's when he was young!
However, if possible, I hope Duan Huaichuan won't become a second Xun Ze.
That's terrifying.
After not hearing Yun Changliang speak for a long time, the emperor waved his hand and dismissed him.
It doesn't matter if Yun Changliang doesn't say anything; he'll get to see this spectacle sooner or later anyway.
"Go and find out where that old man is staying now," the emperor said. "Don't alert him."
The eunuch acknowledged and withdrew.
——
Just as the emperor had said that day, within two days, a wave of impeachment against Yun Changliang suddenly swept through Luoyang City.
Among them were naturally people entrusted by Chen Zongwen, but there were also those who had long disliked Yun Changliang and took the opportunity to kick him while he was down. Memorials were sent into the palace like snowflakes, creating an astonishing scene.
However, the emperor was not in a hurry at all, and was listening with great interest to the reports from his subordinates.
"Lord Chen took his students to Jizhou. The prefect of Jizhou arranged a private school for Lord Chen so that he could teach his students. Now, Lord Chen and his family are all there."
"Jizhou..." The emperor frowned. "I remember that Minister Duan also went to Jizhou. What, did he go because he knew that old man would go?"
The eunuch shook his head: "When Lord Duan went there, Lord Chen was still in Qingshui Village. However, it seems that Lord Duan went to Jizhou for someone as well."
Who is it?
“A woman, upon hearing that Lord Duan had just arrived in Jizhou, went to see that woman without even having time to pack his things. Now, Lord Chen and Madam Chen are also going there because of that woman.”
Hearing the eunuch's words, the emperor frowned deeply.
He recalled the memorial Chen Zongwen had sent a couple of days earlier, which said that Yun Changliang was unfit to be a father.
It seems the problem lies with that woman.
However, the emperor was even more confused.
Chen Zongwen had been living in the countryside all along. How could his daughter possibly be involved with Yun Changliang?
The emperor couldn't figure it out, so he simply ordered someone to investigate.
After the eunuch withdrew, the emperor leaned back, looked at the mountain of memorials, and a smile appeared on his lips.
He thinks he can get him to do things for him just by submitting a memorial?
Dream on!
He won't care about this matter unless that old man comes to him in person and explains things clearly!
