East Factory.
Wei Zhongxian lay on the bed, a look of pain occasionally showing on his face. He turned his head to glance at Sun Yunhe, who was serving beside him, and said, "Cui Chengxiu has been promoted. The emperor is going to deal with them. Then our people should submit a petition and demand severe punishment for Yang Lian and others.
After hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Sun Yunhe said in disbelief, "Eunuch, this matter is probably hard to conclude, right? His Majesty just beat you, and that was all those people's idea. Now people in the court and the country are saying that although these people are guilty of heinous crimes, they don't deserve the death penalty. Considering their past contributions, they should be given a chance to live."
Looking up at Sun Yunhe, Wei Zhongxian said unhappily, "You know, or do we know? Why all that nonsense? Go tell them, this is how it's going to be done. We must create a big scene and make it look like the crowd is excited. These people must be severely punished as a warning to others. Just wait and see, they will all die this time."
Seeing Wei Zhongxian was furious, Sun Yunhe did not dare to speak any more and quickly agreed, "I will do it right away."
"A bunch of idiots." Wei Zhongxian cursed as he looked at Sun Yunhe's back.
As if he had been pulled on his buttocks, Wei Zhongxian suddenly grimaced in pain, and the resentment in his eyes became even stronger. He now wished that all those people would be crushed to ashes.
The Censorate. The Left Censor-in-Chief's duty room.
Yu Maoheng heard the noisy noise outside and raised his head in confusion.
In fact, the Censorate has not had an easy time these days. Although Yu Maoheng has calmed everyone down, the case has been tried and the charges have been determined.
Accepting bribes to impeach others was a disgrace. The Censorate, once a self-proclaimed clean institution, had become a turbid one. Everyone was holding their breath, but they simply had no one to vent their anger on. The main question now was what to do?
Originally, Yu Maoheng wanted to launch a grand campaign, but was suppressed by His Majesty.
So the Censorate has not been lively recently, it can even be described as deserted.
What happened today? Why is there such a commotion?
Yu Maoheng stood up and walked outside.
Seeing someone passing by the door, Yu Maoheng waved to the person and asked, "Wang Xunian, what happened over there?"
"Your Excellency, the imperial edict has just arrived, and Cui Chengxiu has been promoted to Right Censor-in-Chief."
Yu Maoheng was stunned and waved his hand, signaling for people to leave.
He didn't expect that someone was promoted, and the key point was that the person who was promoted was Cui Chengxiu.
Yu Maoheng had a bad feeling in his heart. Cui Chengxiu was Wei Zhongxian's man. Yu Maoheng didn't think that he and Wei Zhongxian could get along. Maybe Cui Chengxiu would compete for his position.
But after thinking about his current situation, Yu Maoheng didn't care. If Cui Chengxiu could really get him down, he would probably have to thank him.
It just so happens that I haven't taken that step yet, so it's a good idea to let Cui Chengxiu take my place. Then I can go home and stay away from all the troubles I'm in now.
In Yu Maoheng's opinion, something big was about to happen in the court. He had realized this a long time ago, but there was nothing he could do now and he couldn't escape.
Without saying anything, Yu Maoheng turned around and walked back. He didn't want to get involved in the commotion outside.
At this time, Cui Chengxiu was appointed to the position of Right Censor-in-Chief, which obviously had a special purpose. There was a special purpose when I was promoted, let alone Cui Chengxiu. At this point, it was no longer something I could stop or influence.
at the same time.
After seeing off the people who came to congratulate him, Cui Chengxiu walked back expressionlessly and sat down in his chair.
The content of the imperial edict was simple, but the meaning behind it was not simple. Thinking of the news that Eunuch Wei had just sent, Cui Chengxiu had some thoughts in his mind, so he stood up and went out.
Soon he came to a room next door, looked around and found that there was no one there.
"Master Cui." Someone saw Cui Chengxiu walk in and quickly approached him with a smile. He then bowed and said, "Congratulations. I was thinking of inviting you for a drink when I was leaving the job and congratulating you. I didn't expect you to come today."
"Let's not talk about this." Cui Chengxiu smiled and waved his hand. He reached out and took Mao Wenru's hand and said, "I have something I want to discuss with you."
Mao Wenru glanced at Cui Chengxiu and saw his serious expression. He nodded and said, "Let's talk here."
He then took Cui Chengxiu to a deserted corner and asked, "What's the matter?"
At this point, Cui Chengxiu no longer concealed anything and directly asked, "Do you dare to fight me?"
