too affectionate

Chapter 409 A ghost in the heart and an important official sitting on a pin and felt in the belly with a plan to put pressure on the emperor (2)
When the emperor heard this impassioned confession of loyalty, he just smiled and waved his hands, and said three times in a row: "Okay, okay, okay, Ren Qing is indeed my most trusted veteran, and he is the most considerate of my difficulties."

When Ren Linge heard this, instead of alleviating the tension in his heart, it aggravated the anxiety and worry in his heart. For a while, he could only nod his head tremblingly, and answered vaguely a few times.

At this time, the maid at the side came up in time and changed the emperor's cup of hot tea.

The emperor picked up the teacup, blew on the tea leaves, and took a sip of the tea, then casually mentioned it and continued: "But recently, I really have a troublesome thing, and Ren Qing can really help!"

Before the emperor finished speaking, Ren Linge's heart trembled.

He knew that today's topic, this is the real beginning.

"Your Majesty, please tell me, if there is a place where an old official can serve His Majesty, even if the old official dies, he will not refuse."

The emperor nodded slightly, his heavy eyes fell on Ren Linge, and he spoke lightly.

"Perhaps Ren Qing has also heard about it. Some time ago, a commoner, who was famously called Xu Lianying, came to Beijing to appeal for grievances and beat the Ministry of Punishment's Dengwen Drum.

And it was Xiaoxuan Langzhong from the Ministry of Punishments who handled the matter.

As for Mr. Xuan, Ren Qing, as you know, is the most conscientious and careful person who likes to get to the bottom of things.

Originally, she was only dealing with the case of Xu Lianying's vindication, but who knew that this child was young, reckless, and did not know how to measure, but she did such unreasonable things as breaking ground, opening coffins, and dismantling corpses for examination, which attracted everyone in the world. You know, it really messed me up too much! "

As the emperor was talking, anger had already crept up on his face, and he patted the small table at hand a few times, the teacup rang loudly, with an expression of indisputable anger.

Ren Linge knew that he shouldn't say much at this time, so he just laughed and echoed a few words, and waited for the emperor's next words.

After taking another sip of tea to calm down, the emperor went on to say: "This can be regarded as driving me to a dead end. Everyone in the world is watching this case. Even if I don't want to investigate, I have to investigate and find out. One confession!

It turned out that this investigation was good, and it pulled out so many things from the upper and lower levels of the Yuhang government. It was the officials who harmed the people through inaction and indiscriminate behavior, the local gangs and cliques to occupy one side, the excessive taxation and miscellaneous taxes, and the large-scale construction projects. Fill your pockets.

I didn't know that under my right of heaven, there is such a chaotic and lawless place!

These black sheep who harm the foundation of the people and shake the foundation of the power of heaven are really heinous, and must be severely punished to make an example to others! "

The more the emperor spoke, the more excited he became, but when he came to this point, his tone softened slightly, he sighed heavily, and then continued:
"If it weren't for the fact that the common people knew about this matter, I would have dealt with it privately. After all, Yuhang is the ancestral home of the Empress and Ren Qing. If it was dealt with on the table, I don't know what it would do to the Empress and Ren Qing. Criticism.

However, this matter has already been full of wind and rain. If I don't give an explanation to the people of the world, I'm afraid that the hearts of the people will be unstable and the foundation of the country will be shaken! "

As he spoke, the emperor shook his head and sighed several times, looking extremely helpless.

When Ren Linge heard this, he quickly continued: "Your Majesty loves my minister like a son, and the old minister is full of gratitude!

However, China's affairs are the most important thing, and the people are the most important. Please don't consider veterans and others. Everything will be dealt with according to the laws of the country. Veterans and others will have no complaints! "

The emperor nodded and said with relief: "It's Ren Qing who is the most considerate of my difficulties!"

After finishing speaking, the emperor changed the subject again, pointed to Ren Ling Pavilion, and continued: "But speaking of this, Ren Qing, you also have some problems with this matter.

Although Ren Qing has been away for many years, Yuhang is your ancestral home after all, even if Ren Qing is busy with the affairs of the court and China all day long, you should pay more attention to the situation in your ancestral home, otherwise how can this evil trend become popular? "

As soon as the emperor said these words, he obviously lifted them up high and put them down gently. On the one hand, he specifically brought Ren Linge up for questioning, and on the other hand he quietly dismissed Ren Linge from the group of sinners. clear.

You must know that if the emperor really wants to pursue it, he can just pick up a crime, whether it is contempt for the emperor, defiance of the law, harm to the people, or forming a party for personal gain, any of the crimes of beheading, An does not need to be placed on the head of Ren Linge , like a tailor-made mold for Ren Ling Pavilion, it couldn't be more suitable.

But the emperor kept silent. Ren Linge was the source and foundation of this unhealthy trend, and the core of forming a party for self-interest. He only said that Ren Linge had not fulfilled the responsibility of supervision and inspection. Ren Dang behind him opened fire.

However, even if the emperor did not strictly pursue Ren Linge's responsibilities, the lines between the lines are full of coercion, warning and reminders.

Ren Linge knew very well that the emperor took Xuan Wanyan as the vanguard this time, went straight to his lair, and caught such a big opportunity, not for the purpose of putting himself to death and exterminating the Ren Party. The imperial court was in turmoil, and the vitality of the country was seriously injured.

The emperor wanted to kill the vigor of the Ren clan, and remind Ren Linge that if the emperor didn't say anything, it didn't mean that the emperor didn't know anything and didn't care about anything.If you really think the emperor is a fool, then you can arrange matters related to reincarnation as soon as possible.

Ren Linge breathed a sigh of relief again, and could only agree again and again: "Yes, yes, what your majesty said is very true! The old minister will definitely test the local officials of Yuhang severely in the future, I will never tolerate any lawbreakers, and I will definitely return Yuhang as an official to rule Qingming."

As Ren Linge said, he knelt down again, kowtowed and said: "This turmoil is all due to negligence of duty by the old ministers. He is really ashamed of His Majesty's trust and great trust. He is ashamed of the emperor's grace and the common people! Please also Your Majesty will punish you severely!"

Ren Linge spoke sincerely, his kneeling body was trembling moderately, expressing his old age just right, fully showing the exhaustion of an old minister who dedicated his whole life to the country.

The anger in the emperor's eyes faded slightly, he bent down slightly, and personally stretched out his hand to pull up Ren Linge who was lying on the ground.

"There is such an important minister of the country as Ren Qing, who is dedicated to the country and the people, so I can relax a little bit."

The Imperial Palace, the side hall of Baocheng Hall.

"Brother, you don't need to worry any more. Things are going according to Zhen'er's expectation. The emperor didn't blame him too much. This is the end of the matter."

Empress Ren sat on the top seat, and while ordering the maids to serve Ren Linge with vegetables, she comforted Ren Linge.

Ren Linge sighed, looking at the steaming hot pot, but he had no appetite.
