Chapter 762 True and False Rumors

Xiao Jingheng and Shangguanjing were impatient to listen to the censor's rambling, and turned to look at Wang Shangshu, asking about the progress of the old fraud case involving the Su University scholar and the sky-high rouge case involving the prime minister.

The crown prince's questions were all serious matters, but the crown prince's concubine was sitting in the Qiyuan Hall, and it seemed embarrassing whether Wang Shangshu answered or not!Many officials couldn't help looking at Lao Wang, expressing deep sympathy for him.

As for Wang Shangshu himself, a tangled look was visible on his face, and then...he compromised unscrupulously in front of all the officials, and began to report the progress of the case to the prince and princess.

During Wang Shangshu's report, Crown Princess Shangguan interrupted and asked one or two questions related to the case.

The old Wang also answered seriously in front of the ministers, which is actually acknowledging the fact that the crown prince and princess concubine are co-regents.

well!The world is getting worse and people's hearts are not old!Even Wang Shangshu compromised... Many Taoists in the court couldn't help but feel bitter in their mouths, deeply feeling that they were alone and helpless.

To make matters worse, seeing the attitudes of Lin Taiwei and Wang Shangshu, some "fools" in the court also quietly changed their attitudes.

At the beginning, Lu Shangshu, who looked worried, took the initiative to come out after Wang Shangshu reported the case, and began to report the summer harvest statistics and grain price fluctuations reported by the Lingnan prefectures this year.

The prince and the princess listened carefully, without saying a word, until Lu Shangshu mentioned that the rain in Lingnan this year has been a little heavy, and it has been cloudy recently, which has affected the drying of grain in some areas, and the storage may be slightly later than usual .

At this time, the princess made a gesture to Lu Shangshu suddenly, asking him to wait a moment.

Lu Shangshu immediately stopped talking, and then the courtiers saw that the princess turned her head and stared at the people in the Ministry of Industry, and asked about the progress of this year's dredging project, especially the progress of Lingnan.

Not long ago, the minister of the Ministry of Industry was involved in a deficit by Deng Wenshao, the prince's pro-party, and was dismissed from his post. The prince ordered Lu Shangshu from the household department to join Dali Temple in the Ministry of Industry to thoroughly investigate the accounts of the past few years. It didn't take long before another one was involved waiter.

Right now, among the officials of the Ministry of Industry standing in the court hall, there is only one servant left, and the four doctors are all anxious, and no one knows when the fire of being short of money will burn on their own heads.

The emperor also entrusted the Crown Prince to handle the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. These officials from the Ministry of Industry would not dare to offend the Crown Princess at this time even if they had ten guts. Compromise in seconds.

The assistant minister took a step forward and began to honestly report the progress of this year's dredging. He really didn't dare to hide anything.

"Xu Shilang, right?" Shangguan Jing glanced at the old man in front of him.This is actually an acquaintance.

The side concubine Xu who once doted on the Huaiyang Palace was his concubine.When Shangguanjing and Xiao Jingheng were in the Huaiyang Palace, the old man was actually the minister of the Ministry of Rites. The Ministry of Rites has always been Prime Minister Chen's territory. The old man Xu had a very close relationship with Prime Minister Chen.

After Huaiyang Wang conspired against the case, all the family members of concubines were not punished because they were afraid of being too involved.Old man Xu, who was originally the minister of the Ministry of Rites, was like everyone else, trembling for a while, and let it go when the matter was over.

But who told his grandson to be the eldest son of King Huaiyang, who personally participated in King Huaiyang's rebellion and killed the fourth prince born to Concubine Lin Gui?
At that time, Taiwei Lin's faction pinched old man Xu and refused to let him go, forcibly pulled him down from the position of minister. At that time, Prime Minister Chen meant to let old man Xu hide his strength and bide his time for a while, and then talk about recovery. In the end, Shangguan Jing and Xiao Jingheng Seizing the opportunity to make a game, the old man Xu, who was in a hurry to go to the doctor, was lured to vote for the Su University scholar.

He is so sloppy, of course he offended Prime Minister Chen to death, and naturally he will not end well. The past two years in the court have been very difficult, and he just let go of his old face a few days ago and finally begged for forgiveness from Prime Minister Chen , came to the Ministry of Industry to be a third-rank servant.

However, I didn't expect it to be particularly unlucky. Not long after I came to the office, something happened to the Ministry of Industry, and the kind that couldn't be picked clean from top to bottom was simply miserable to the extreme.

It's really not easy for the old man to work hard in the officialdom at his age, but it's a pity that Shangguanjing has no sympathy.

"Xu Shilang." Shangguanjing took out a memorial and motioned to Zhu Chengliang who was standing by to help pass it over: "This is the memorial of Xunzhou Mu in Lingnan Road. It was delivered to the East Palace yesterday. You can read it first."

Old man Xu was trembling a little, but he still bravely took the memorial in Shangguanjing's hand. When he opened it, his heart skipped a beat. He didn't wait for Shangguanjing to ask, so he knelt down and said, "Ma'am, Lingnan Road Dredging Project It started at the beginning of this year, and it has been half a year so far, and I joined the Ministry of Industry two months ago, there are some things that I really can't explain clearly."

"Then I would like to ask you, who is responsible for the dredging project of Lingnan Road?" Shangguanjing asked mercilessly: "What? The Shangshu has been dismissed, so other officials in your Ministry of Industry don't have to work? "

"Your Majesty, forgive me, that's not what I mean." Xu Shilang quickly replied: "I and the others will never dare to delay the important project of the court. As for what Xunzhou Mu has said, Madam, please give this old minister two days, two days. Within a few days, the old minister will definitely give an explanation to His Highness and Empress, if not, the old minister is willing to hang his seal and resign."

"Okay!" Shangguan nodded coldly: "I'll give you two days. But Xu Shilang, please remember, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer within two days, it's up to you to resign Even if you want to take the initiative to resign, it depends on whether you have the qualifications."

"Yes!" Xu Shilang, who was quite old, kowtowed like garlic, and there was no reluctance in his heart.He was really afraid of Shangguan Jing's dismounting.

This morning, the officials were eye-opening.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seldom speaks, and even if he speaks, it is mostly to echo the Crown Princess who has a very strong attitude.

So... who the hell is spreading gossip, saying that the princess is a irritable and brainless stupid woman?

This temper is really not very good, and the prince is indeed following her wink, but it is really not stupid to be stupid!

So shrewd as this, it's not easy for a group of court veterans to fool her. Who said she was a brainless beauty?
On this day, the rumors in Beijing and China were updated.The Crown Princess Shangguan Jing, who was originally famous for her looks, became famous for scaring people this time.

The point is... none of the courtiers in the previous court cared about what the Crown Princess looked like. Everyone had a common understanding, that is--the Crown Princess is really hot and powerful! !

This rumor is absolutely true.

　---Here is the dividing line of the rumor of the princess--
　　The officials: Who said she was stupid?stand out? !Spicy is really spicy, not fake at all.
