Chapter 368
As soon as Huang Yushi's words came out, except for a few people who already knew the inside story, everyone else, including Emperor Qi Cheng, was shocked and looked at Xu Wenbin one after another.

The censor of the censor platform, participated in the censor Zuo Zhongcheng?

Many people secretly went to see Dr. Yu Shi again, and saw that Dr. Yu Shi was frowning. These people muttered in their hearts, so it seems that Dr. Yu Shi wants to exclude dissidents?
The third prince Li Chong hooked the corners of his lips secretly, and stared at Li Yang intently, and found that Li Yang also had a surprised look on his face, frowning, and thinking secretly.

Huang Yushi handed over the account book in his hand, "My lord, this is the account book from the copper mine, please have a look at it."

Even got the bills.
All the courtiers looked sideways, wondering in their hearts, who is so generous, it's fine to find out the copper mine, and even get the ledger.

The location of the copper mine is in Wuyang Prefecture. As long as you send someone to check it, you will know whether it is true or not. Anyway, the mine will not disappear. The most important thing is whether the Xu family is the one who digs the copper mine privately, and does Xu Wenbin know about this matter? thing.

Xu Wenbin was stunned. It wasn't until Eunuch Xi presented the ledger to Emperor Qi Cheng that he seemed to wake up, and then angrily scolded, "Ridiculous! Why didn't I know about the private mining of copper mines?"

Because Xu Wenbin always had an upright look on weekdays, and his square face was always glaring like a diamond, and he looked upright. When he yelled and refuted, many courtiers really believed that he was innocent.

Huang Yushi sneered, "Master Xu, I have a whole box of ledgers here, and the evidence is solid, but you can't deny it if you want to."

Xu Wenbin shook his sleeves, snorted coldly, and bowed to Emperor Qi Cheng, "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister who is loyal to the emperor and filial piety. I have never heard of the copper mine being mentioned at home. It is a false accusation!"

Huang Yushi still just sneered, looking at Xu Wenbin with sarcasm, as if he was looking at a dying person who was stubbornly resisting.

Emperor Qi Cheng turned over the ledger very seriously, but he didn't show the slightest emotion on his face. The courtiers wanted to see no clues from his face, and became more and more curious about the ledger presented by Huang Yushi.

The Tai Chi Hall fell into silence for a while, only occasionally remembering the sound of Emperor Qi Cheng flipping through the ledger, and it took a quarter of an hour before Qi Chengdi closed the ledger, looked up at Xu Wenbin, and said in a deep voice: "I have already I’ve seen this account book, and it does record the benefits of copper mining, but is it the Xu family’s account book?”

Emperor Qi Cheng paused, looked at the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple, and ordered: "Ling Aiqing, Fu Aiqing, I will take you two to Wuyang Mansion to thoroughly investigate this matter."

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple all took orders.

Emperor Qi Cheng looked at Xu Wenbin again, and asked blankly, "Xu Aiqing, you said you don't know about the copper mine?"

Xu Wenbin's expression was serious, and his tone was very firm, "Shang Mingjian, I swear to the saint that I don't know anything about the copper mine. If I know that my family has got a copper mine, I will definitely ask them to dedicate it to the holy one. There are copper mines The credit is there, if I say something bluntly, I will definitely be ranked among the three princes in the future, how can I ruin my official career and lose my head for mere yellow and white things?"

These words are reasonable, and many courtiers nodded in approval. For them, how can there be so many yellow and white things as high-ranking officials and generous salaries?As long as they can be Sangong, the family will definitely grow stronger. Are you afraid that there will be no money by then?Those businessmen are afraid that they will hold money to get a little support.

Emperor Qi Cheng also agrees with Xu Wenbin's words. Xu Wenbin is already Yushi Zuozhongcheng, and he is also a person he values. Coupled with the merit of donating copper mines, Xu Wenbin will indeed occupy a place in Sangong in the future.

If the yellow and white things could be exchanged for the position of the three princes, Emperor Qi Cheng believed that [-]% of the people in the court would scramble to come up with silver.

Xu Wenbin reached out and took off the official hat on his head and put it on the ground. He knelt down on the ground and saluted respectfully, "My lord, if Huang Yushi's participation is true, the copper mine is really a private matter of the Xu family. Mining, presumably because the family members are too stupid to hide it from the humble minister.

It is the fault of the humble minister that he did not teach well and did not urge the children in the family to be loyal to the emperor in time. The humble minister is no longer worthy of the position of Yushi Zuozhongcheng.From today onwards, I will take off this official hat and contemplate my mistakes behind closed doors at home. Everything will be thoroughly investigated by Lord Ling and Lord Fu. If the Xu family really made a mistake, I will be ashamed of my Majesty, willing to bow my head and admit my guilt without any complaints. "

This really speaks to the hearts of many people, they are not afraid of the mediocrity of the family's children, as long as they don't cause trouble, they are afraid that the family's children will be stubborn and always cause trouble for them.

These courtiers looked at Xu Wenbin with sympathy in their eyes, and they all felt that he was framed by his family members who had no insight or foresight.

Emperor Qi Cheng, who was originally in an angry mood, eased up a little after seeing Xu Wenbin's prostrate figure on the ground, and nodded, "Yes."

Xu Wenbin kowtowed heavily to Emperor Qi Cheng three times, raised his head with tears in his eyes, "I will go home and think about my mistakes behind closed doors, and thank the emperor for his kindness."

Xu Wenbin took off his official robe again, folded it neatly, put the official hat on top of the official robe, and exited the Tai Chi Hall respectfully in a white middle coat.

When Li Chong returned to the Prince's Mansion, his temper that had been suppressed for a long time finally erupted. He threw the paperweight on the desk in front of Mr. Jing, and made a crisp sound, followed by Li Chong's furious voice,

"Xu Wenbin, that old fox! How dare you retreat to advance, just refuse to admit it, and blame all the faults on the clansmen. Without his nod, the Xu family would dare to mine the copper mine privately?"

Mr. Jing frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be angry, Your Highness, can your Highness tell us what happened in the court hall?"

Li Chong was still angry, and he talked about Xu Wenbin's actions in the court, and then said, "This palace is really funny to see my father and many courtiers sympathize with him very much. What is there to sympathize with? It's so simple I can understand everything, these people are not self-proclaimed court foxes, how could they be deceived by Xu Wenbin Daoan's hasty gesture?"

After Mr. Jing listened, he murmured to himself, "Your Highness, don't get too angry. In fact, your main goal is not Xu Wenbin. Xu Wenbin is just an introduction. As long as we can pull down the First Prince and Lu Guogong, our goal will be achieved." .”

Only then did Li Chong turn his anger into joy, and laughed loudly, "Mr. Jing is right, as long as the elder brother is dismounted, it is enough. Father has sent Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and Minister of Dali Temple to Wuyang Mansion for a thorough investigation. Today Huang Yu What Shi showed Father was just an account book, and there is still a box of account books, big brother and Lu Guogong will never get along this time!"
