Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 661

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for these three major crimes to be established, and the easiest one to get rid of is undoubtedly the second crime.

Su Cheng carefully recalled what Li Shimin had said in the hall. Su Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, as if thinking of something, and the look on his face became much more relaxed.

With a plan in mind, Su Cheng immediately felt at ease. Anyway, he has a solution, and then he will leave the decision to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin can do whatever he wants.

Ma Zhou was in his thirties with a face of righteousness and determination. Because of his uprightness, he enjoyed a great reputation in the court and was hailed as Wei Zheng's successor.

Having just been ordered by His Majesty to assist in the thorough investigation of the case of Hou Junji, he is naturally full of ambition, and he has already made up his mind that he must investigate to find out the truth and make it clear.

When the dynasty was dispersed, Su Cheng was surrounded by Cheng Yaojin and others to talk, and Ma Zhou was also surrounded by Wei Zheng and others to give a lot of advice, but Ma Zhou's eyes were always on Su Cheng.

Although he is a minister in the same palace, Ma Zhou and Su Cheng are not familiar, but he admires Su Cheng very much, because he is different from most officials in the court, he was born in poverty!

It is precisely because he was born in poverty that he can best appreciate how important what Su Cheng has done to ordinary people!

In his opinion, Su Cheng's contribution can even be compared with Shennong's taste of hundreds of herbs, which is an achievement that has benefited the ages.

Admiration is all admiration, but business is business. Ma Zhou knew that Su Cheng might excuse Hou Junji, but he, Ma Zhou, would never allow such a thing to happen.

Walking out of the palace gate, Ma Zhou quickly chased after him, and said respectfully, "My lord!"

Su Cheng turned his head and said with a smile: "Ma Yushi! We will be partners next time, so we must not disappoint His Majesty!"

Ma Zhou said solemnly: "Your Majesty will do his best to find out the truth, check it out, report it to His Majesty, and report it to the people!"

Su Cheng nodded and said: "It's really embarrassing to think about the fact that the soldiers are going to investigate them in triumph! I'm really afraid of the hearts of the soldiers! By the way, Ma Yushi has always been a civil servant. I don't know if he has ever been with the army. ?”

Ma Zhou shook his head and said, "No."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "That Ma Yushi may not know some rules in the army."

Ma Zhou clasped his hands and said: "Although the officer has never been with the army, he knows some rules in the army. In order to reward the soldiers and stimulate the morale of the army, he will distribute some of the captured property to the soldiers. However, the father-in-law will not Do you think it is a rule in the army that Chen Guogong takes most of the treasures for himself?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "It's good that you know the rules. Your Majesty said that you want to check Hou Junji, so don't go astray!"

What he was most afraid of was that Ma Zhou was too upright to rub the sand in his eyes, and that would be a lot of fun.

Although Ma Zhou was upright but not stupid, he naturally understood Su Cheng's meaning, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I have a steelyard in my heart."

Su Cheng nodded and smiled reassuringly, "Very well, then I can rest assured!"

Ma Zhou asked: "My lord, where do we start to investigate? By the way, my lord's Shenji Battalion also went out with the army, and they should know some inside information!"

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "I asked them. They are stationed far away from the palace and patrol every day, so they don't know about these things."

Ma Zhou felt that the camp of the soldiers of the Shenji Camp should really be far away from the palace. Su Cheng would not lie about this, but who knows if the soldiers of the Shenji Camp know about it?

"Then where do you think we should start?" Ma Zhou asked.

Su Cheng patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "No hurry, no hurry, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"

Ma Zhou couldn't help being slightly taken aback when he heard this, are you in a hurry?Let's talk tomorrow?

This is a task entrusted by the emperor, the government and the public are paying attention, how can it be not in a hurry?

Ma Zhou hurriedly said: "Grandpa, Your Majesty and the government and the people are all waiting, why do we have to talk about it tomorrow?"

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "I still have something to do today."

something?This is something the emperor confessed, what else is more important than what the emperor confessed?Ma Zhou asked suspiciously, "What else can you do, my lord?"

what else?Is it a problem if you didn't sleep well last night?

Su Cheng smiled slightly: "The matter of the firearms supervisor is confidential!"

The matter of the firearms supervisor is indeed a secret, but what can the firearms supervisor not delay for a moment?This is clearly trying to delay time!

Ma Zhou clasped his hands and said, "Since the lord still has something to keep secret, I should investigate it myself first. After all, it's something that His Majesty told me, so I don't dare to slack off!"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, then you can check it first!"

Ma Zhou was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Su Cheng to be so happy. He thought Su Cheng would try to stop him from investigating, so now he was a little confused.

It's better for him to check it himself, because no one hinders him, and he believes that he will be able to find out the truth.

The early court dispersed, and the news spread throughout the court like a gust of wind. Everyone who heard it was stunned. Wei Zheng actually impeached Hou Junji for three major crimes in the early court!

Moreover, Hou Junji has already been imprisoned in Dali Temple to be attended.

The officials who heard the news were all dumbfounded. After all, the army had just returned triumphantly. Hou Junji was the greatest hero as the marching chief. Impeached for the three major crimes and imprisoned in Dali Temple!

If it wasn't for Wei Zheng who impeached Hou Junji for the three major crimes, they would even have wondered if someone had framed him for revenge out of jealousy!

But the one who impeached Hou Junji was Wei Zheng!How could Wei Zheng frame Hou Junji?

Almost all the officials believed it when they heard that Wei Zheng had impeached Hou Junji.

Especially the dozens of carriages that entered Chen Guogong's mansion could not be hidden from anyone, and Chen Guogong's mansion was not an iron bucket.

So when all the officials were discussing, someone mentioned the dozen or so carriages, which further proved Wei Zheng's impeachment.

"Most of the treasures of a kingdom have been embezzled by Hou Junji, this fellow is too courageous!"

"That's right, the Gaochang Kingdom must have a lot of treasures on the road that must be passed through for commerce. Hou Junji is really greedy!"

"Hou Junji didn't even spare King Gaochang's harem, what a beast!"

"Although Hou Junji destroyed the Gaochang Kingdom and brought back the seeds of Baijihua, but he has acted so recklessly, maybe the merit is not worth it?"

"A merit is a merit, a demerit is a demerit, it cannot be generalized! Besides, I think the Duke of Ankang is the biggest contributor!"

"Let's talk about the investigation results of Ankang County Duke and Ma Yushi!"

The news quickly spread among the yamen, and it has not yet reached the people, but the Hou family's followers waiting outside the palace quickly got the news.

They were all shocked when they heard that the master had been imprisoned in Dali Temple because of Wei Zheng's impeachment.

After reacting, they immediately rushed to the Duke's mansion in a hurry.
