Jiang Yueyang looked at Emperor Yuan sitting on the dragon throne, worrying about how to tell him about Prince Rong's intention to rebel.
There is also a secret letter on the beam. I wonder if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has discovered it?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yueyang was very annoyed and muttered to the system: [Your Majesty, the throne is too unstable, everyone wants to rebel. How should I remind him? ]
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuan said, "My dear ministers, please take a rest. I will be back soon."
[Where are you going, Your Majesty? ] Jiang Yueyang asked.
[There are three urgent things in life, right? 】
Before Emperor Yuan stood up and left, he gave a wink to the Crown Prince and the Left Prime Minister, and the two followed him and left without saying a word.
There would also be breaks during court meetings when officials could go to the toilet.
Lord Zhou and Lord Qi, who were previously named, were ready to risk their lives to pass on the message, but were taken away and detained elsewhere by the commander of the imperial guards.
After a while, Emperor Yuan came back.
Afterwards, he issued an imperial decree, ordering the Crown Prince to go to Prince Rong's mansion in person to supervise the beating.
But what Jiang Yueyang didn't know was that the prince also brought a secret order - people were not allowed to enter Prince Rong's mansion but to leave, and the mansion was surrounded in secret.
After the prince received the order and left, the court meeting continued.
Qin Shi reported the progress of Lord Wu's case. Because so much time has passed, no evidence has been found to prove that the death of Li Cheng's family was related to him.
Lord Wu also refused to admit it.
After listening to Qin Shi's words, Jiang Yueyang muttered to herself, "Won't you torture him severely if you can't find the evidence? I don't believe that the fat man's bones are harder than whips and tongs! Qin Shi is still too gentle when handling cases."
The system said objectively: [He is not like the host who has a God's perspective. He would have concerns in his heart and be afraid of wrongly accusing someone.]
Jiang Yueyang thought about it and felt that what the system said made sense. He sighed and said, "In this case, we can only hope that Qin Shi can find evidence. Otherwise, a charge of cheating in the imperial examination will not kill the fat man."
After hearing Jiang Yueyang's thoughts, Qin Shi knew what he should do.
Initially, he wanted to find actual evidence to prove Lord Wu's crime and give the victim justice that everyone knows.
But now that Lord Wu refused to admit it, he had no choice but to resort to extraordinary measures.
Just beat him to death, he deserves it anyway.
If this is the case, Li Chengxue's family will not get real justice.
If possible, Qin Shi still hopes that Lord Wu can plead guilty and make his crimes public.
Emperor Yuan asked Qin Shi to get to the bottom of the matter, no matter what means he used!
This is accepting Jiang Yueyang's opinion.
Then, General Zhenguo came out, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, General Jifeng and his entourage will arrive in the capital in three days. Do you want to arrange for someone to pick them up?"
Before Emperor Yuan could say anything, a civil servant came out and said in a sarcastic tone, "General Ji Feng doesn't need the court to send someone to welcome him. There are already many people waiting at the city gate."
Jiang Yueyang looked left and right, his eyes moving non-stop.
[Little melon, who is General Jifeng? Why do I feel the atmosphere is weird? His Majesty's expression is not right either.]
System: [It is the young general Lu Yunting mentioned by the storyteller last time, the leader of the Lu family army. Lu Yunting has 300,000 troops under his command. These people think he will rebel, and your Majesty is also afraid of him.]
[What the hell! He is also going to rebel? Has your majesty violated the law of heaven? There are already three groups of people trying to seize his throne. ]
Civil and Military Officials: Three waves? Prince Rong and General Jifeng, who is the other one?
The system corrected: [Two waves. Lu Yunting never thought of rebelling. He didn't want that position at all. He just wanted to find out the truth about his father's death.]
These words caused a huge wave in everyone's heart, and Emperor Yuan couldn't help but sit up straight.
Lu Yunting has no intention of rebelling?
Is there any hidden story behind General Lu’s death?
Emperor Yuan looked towards Jiang Yueyang calmly, and said, "My dear minister, be careful with your words. Even if the common people go to welcome them, the court cannot fail to send people."
As he spoke, he looked towards the generals, his eyes falling on General Zhenguo, "Zhang Tiesheng, send someone to pick him up when the time comes."
"I will obey your order."
[I also want to go see the famous General Jifeng. I heard he is more handsome than the crown prince.] Jiang Yueyang looked at General Zhenguo with envy.
[That day is not a holiday.] The system reminded.
【I want to take a leave! 】
【What's the reason? 】
【Abdominal pain during menstruation. 】
The system said speechlessly: [Host, you haven't had your period yet. ]
Civil and military officials: "..."
Emperor Yuan: You have done everything you can to see handsome men.
Afterwards, the six departments reported on their respective work.
Among them, Jiang Shangshu, who was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, reported the preliminary amount of disaster relief silver to Emperor Yuan for him to decide.
Emperor Yuan looked at the two hundred thousand silver coins written on the memorial and agreed to allocate the funds without much thought.
At the same time, Lord Wang, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and a military general were sent to the disaster area to ensure that all the relief money was used for the people.
The generals followed the master to escort the silver and protect Lord Wang.
After a while, seeing that no one came out, Emperor Yuan asked the eunuch chief Li Fuquan to read out an imperial edict.
The content is the punishment for the dozen officials who took the initiative to submit memorials to apologize yesterday.
Some were dismissed from office, some were thrown into prison, and some were exiled.
After reading the imperial edict, Li Fuquan announced the adjournment of the court at the signal of Emperor Yuan.
All the civil and military officials bowed and left.
At this time, Emperor Yuan said again: "Bai Ze, you stay."
Bai Ze, the magistrate of Qingping County, felt a pang in his heart. Why did His Majesty leave him alone?
He quickly reviewed the first half of his life to make sure he had not done anything to let Da Xia down.
So why did Your Majesty keep him?
Jiang Yueyang walked out while secretly looking at the magistrate of Qingping County. It seemed that her father accepted the candidate she proposed.
＊＊＊
As for the Crown Prince, he took his people to the Imperial College and was told by the academic official that Prince Rong did not come today.
So he took his men to Prince Rong's Mansion again.
Princess Chen was very surprised by the prince's arrival, and at the same time, she felt a little uneasy.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Chen bowed and saluted.
The prince raised his hand to exempt her from the ceremony.
Chen asked, "I wonder why the Crown Prince came to the palace?"
The prince glanced at the people present and did not see Yuan Sheng, so he asked, "Where is the prince?"
Chen didn't answer, and asked again: "Your Highness, is Sheng'er causing trouble outside?"
The prince's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he looked down at Chen, "Let the prince come to see me."
Chen's heart trembled, and she dared not say anything more, and ordered someone to call Yuan Sheng. After a while, the servants of the palace called Yuan Sheng.
Yuan Sheng bowed lazily to the prince.
Seeing this, the Crown Prince said in a cold voice: "The Crown Prince has falsely accused others of plagiarism, which is a bad behavior. His Majesty has ordered that the title of Crown Prince be stripped, his status as a student of the Imperial Academy be expelled, and he be beaten with twenty sticks."
