The princess is coquettish and coquettish, conquering the emperor's master

Liang Yinqiu said sarcastically: "Wei Chen only wrote a few things in this memorial. It only made you so anxious that you would jump over the wall. Is it possible that you, like Zeng Yu, still have many unknown things?" ?"

These words made everyone in the court so angry that they dared not speak out, and they all left the court in fear.

Mr. Zhang Ge's face was darker than the ashes of a pot. "In this case, is there any evidence for what is said in the memorial?"

"nature."

Then, Liang Yinqiu clapped his hands, and several boxes of wooden boxes were carried up outside the solemn and solemn hall door, and the courtiers gave way one after another.

There were many discussions in the court.

"What is this?"

"Is this evidence that Zeng Yu formed a party for personal gain?"

"The box seems to be very heavy. It doesn't look like some letters or something, but more like gold and silver jewelry."

Officials who had been involved in this matter could not help but break out in sweat on their foreheads. They were like ants on a hot pot, anxious.

Now, Meng Qing's appearance caught them off guard.

Being in a high position, she was calm and composed, watching the changes in the expressions of every official in the court calmly and indifferently.

Just with these few glances, one can tell clearly which of them participated and who did not.

She spoke in a calm tone, "Open it and let all my dear friends take a look and see if Zeng Yu should go to jail."

"Yes."

The eunuchs below stepped forward to open the lock. The moment they opened the lid of the wooden box, everyone's eyes hurriedly revealed a look of astonishment.

Box after box of gold, as well as a box of letters, precious treasures. After a cursory glance, you should know that what Zeng Yu committed is not as simple as corruption and clique for personal gain.

Liang Yinqiu walked forward calmly and took out a stack of letters, flipped through them casually, and said, "These are the details of correspondence and bribery between Zeng Yu and officials from various states and counties."

"what……"

"Zeng Shangshu actually maintained close contact with officials from various states and counties?"

He handed the stack of letters to the eunuch beside him, then bent down and took out a stack of letters, saying: "These are the letters exchanged between Zeng Yu and the imperial officials of the dynasty. The most important one is the correspondence between Zeng Yu and the imperial master Xiao Yan." , every word in it describes how Zeng Yu and Xiao Yan colluded with officials to use power for personal gain!"

"Master Xiao? How could he..."

"It's really embarrassing..."

Everyone knows the relationship between Meng Qing and Xiao Yan, but now that Xiao Yan is on his way to Youzhou, Meng Qing has done something like this, clearly intending to kill him.

It can be seen that everything in the past was just a joke.

After all, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Who dares to challenge the majesty of an emperor?
Liang Yinqiu continued: "I don't need to talk about the rest of the letter. With the major business houses in Beijing and the maids and eunuchs at all levels in the palace, it seems that no one can escape now."

Mr. Zhang Ge retreated repeatedly. He couldn't believe that Zeng Yu, who always claimed to be a member of the Qing Dynasty, was also a hypocrite who was greedy for fame and wealth. Xiao Yan, the leader of a poor family in the Qing Dynasty, was even more complicit with Zeng Yu. Villain.

At this time, all the elites and scholars were reduced to a laughing stock.

But only the old nobles in the court who stayed out of the matter were eager to take pleasure in the misfortune.

The courtiers represented by Gu Huai'an knelt down and shouted: "Please, the emperor, severely punish Zeng Yu and his party members in accordance with the laws of Chu State."

"Please, Your Majesty, severely punish Zeng Yu and his gang."

Some officials who had some evil intentions saw people kneeling around them. After being stunned for a moment, they could only kneel down helplessly and fearfully.

"Please, Your Majesty, punish Zeng Yu and his gang members severely." Meng Qing raised the corner of his lips, looking at the courtiers asking for orders from below, his condescending attitude made people feel surrendered.

Her plans suddenly darkened: "Zeng Yu has been an official for many years. He practiced favoritism and malpractice in private, excluded dissidents, and had close contacts with officials from various places. This resulted in a corrupt atmosphere and no integrity in the court. I will clean up the court here today. In the letter All those mentioned involved officials, etc., and all were handed over to the three departments of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate for joint investigation, and no clues were allowed to be missed."

Officials at all levels from the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate were ordered to kowtow and chanted in unison.

"We must live up to the emperor's trust, investigate this case, clean up the officialdom, and severely punish those who take corruption and bribery."

It seems that there will be many new people in the DPRK from now on.

However, purging the officialdom will not happen overnight, and I am afraid it will hit a wall one after another.

However, as long as Xiao Yan's influence in Yujing can be eradicated, she is not afraid of the cost, let alone the consequences.

After going to court, Gu Huaian followed.

Meng Qing did not ride in the sedan chair, but walked slowly on the washed corridor, which was slightly wet. The palace people behind him were ten steps away from them.

Gu Huaian had his hands folded in his sleeves, his face was calm and calm, he was wearing a red official robe, his eyebrows were solemn and upright, and he became more determined.

"In relation to Zeng Yu, does the emperor really want to investigate and imprison all the officials in the court?"

She lowered her head slightly, looked at the palace people sweeping the road, and said, "Isn't my determination just now not clear enough?"

Her rhetorical question made Gu Huaian stop.

"If this is really the case, why don't you tell us how to deal with Xiao Yan? After all, he is the real mastermind behind Zeng Yu!"

Meng Qing also stopped, staring at Gu Huai'an with a pair of affectionate willow eyes, "Cousin, don't you still know what I am thinking? Xiao Yan is not someone else, he is the person I recognize in this life."

Gu Huaian frowned and twisted his eyebrows into the character "Chuan".

"But he is not a good person. As an emperor, you should know a saying, 'Princes who break the law are as guilty as the common people.' Do you know that your connivance, cover-up, and favoritism will make many officials lose their last confidence in you!"

"I don't care."

Gu Huaian was suspicious.

"Don't care? You are the emperor! How can you not care?"

There was a hint of a calm and forced smile on the girl's pink-cheeked face.

"I was born in heaven and earth, and I will eventually return to heaven and earth. The emperor is just an empty dream, and it will be gone when I wake up."

"Dream?"

Gu Huaian could not see through her heart more and more.

The Gu family finally waited for the emperor who was bleeding with the Gu family's blood, but now she told him that she was relieved? !

How can the Gu family, which was so prosperous for a while, gain a foothold in the court?Do we want to see Meng Qing fall and the Gu family decline in Chu?
Gu Huaian couldn't accept it.

The Gu family had already gone through a trough period when his father passed away, and now it is about to return to what it once was. His hard work over the years has finally turned into nothing!
"Then you have thought about how to retire after success?"

Meng Qing was always unprepared for him and said: "Establish another prince and hand over the throne to the descendants of the Meng family."

"Prince? The person the emperor wants to make is Meng Zhiyan?"

She shook her head, "Brother Zhiyan is not suitable for this position."
