Chapter 443 Ledger
All the officials were very happy to see the emperor recovering so well. After congratulating the emperor on his recovery, they expressed all their recent opinions. The emperor listened to them one by one without saying anything talk.

Ji Ling stood up, and after bowing to the emperor, he began to talk about the sufferings of the people in Jiangning Province: "Your Majesty, in recent days, in Jiangning Province, officials have colluded to increase taxes and rents frequently, and often The innocent people were wronged, and the people who were harmed were either beaten to death or imprisoned. The people are now in dire straits, and I hope the emperor will see clearly!"

As soon as these words came out, the officials looked at Ji Ling in surprise.The emperor said coldly: "I understand, Minister Ji, let's go down."

After Ji Ling agreed, all the officials said more or less about the treasury and the population, and they didn't say anything. After retiring from the court, the emperor immediately removed Du Langjun, the county magistrate of Jiangning Province, and sent him to prison .

Seeing more and more leaves falling in the yard every day, everyone realized that it was late autumn. "Madam, let's have a cup of tea! This is the best tea someone gave to Lord Hou!" Cui Ling held a cup of tea and handed it to Madam.Madam shook her head, and Cuihui put the tea on the table.

"Ma'am, Lord Hou asked you to go there!" Lin Yun got up and walked to the study, only to see Ji Ling and Lord Hou discussing things in the study, she wanted to turn around and leave.

At this moment, Ji Ling saw her, and stepped forward to persuade her to stay: "Hey, ma'am, you don't need to avoid it. We are all a family. Why do you want to avoid it as a family? I am talking about business with Lord Hou, and I just need you." I called you to help Lord Hou!" Ji Ling said with a smile.

At this time, Master Hou said with a blank expression: "Yes, I need your help." Lin Yun entered the study, and the three of them began to discuss.

"Master Hou, ma'am, look, this is the ironclad evidence to push Guo Yunlong!" Ji Ling took out something like a ledger.Bei Tangming picked up the account book, looked through it, and said: "It seems that Guo Yunlong has eaten Du Langjun a lot! What a big deal, it has fallen into our hands!"

Lin Yun also looked at the ledger, smiled, and said, "Hahahaha, all the stolen money has been left in Guo Yunlong's hands, so it will be easy for us to trip him up now!"

"Then what shall we do next, Lord Hou?" Ji Ling asked.

Bei Tangming thought for a moment, and replied: "What to do, what else to do, of course it is up to the emperor. This Guo Yunlong has long had the intention of treason, and he has long wanted to trip him up, so he relies on his dead body." The relationship between my mother and the emperor has been doing all kinds of things, but I haven't caught it. Now, it really didn't take much effort! Tomorrow morning, we will expose the two villains in public!"

"Is there anything else you want to play, all the loves? No, retreat!"

Bei Tang Ming stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

"Oh? What's the matter with Wei Wuhou?" the emperor asked.

Ji Ling presented the ledger to the emperor, and said, "Please take a look at it, Your Majesty!"

After reading it, the emperor was furious, threw the account book down the hall, and said angrily: "Guo Yunlong, Du Langjun, what have you two done?!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I was wronged, and I did nothing!" Guo Yunlong knelt down and begged for mercy.

At this moment, Du Langjun picked up the account book and stammered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this, this account book is fake, Wei Wuhou and his son have a feud, and he intends to harm both of us, it must be a forgery!"

Ji Ling stepped forward angrily, and said, "You despicable and shameless villain, how dare you argue! This ledger was given to me by your housekeeper!" Ji Ling threw the ledger to Du Langjun.

Du Langjun kowtowed in embarrassment, and kept saying: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, yes, it's the butler, it's the butler who framed me! Ji Ling and Wei Wuhou must have bought the butler, it must be like this, otherwise, how could the butler do it?" Frame us for no reason?"

"Okay Du Langjun, you just said that Marquis Wei Wu framed you, and now you say that the housekeeper framed you, and that Marquis Wei Wu bought your housekeeper, you are so confused! You don't have the courage to admit that you made a mistake after dinner, wait a while Are you going to say that I framed you again?!" The emperor was so angry that he slapped the dragon chair straight.

Guo Yunlong ran forward and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't just convict me and Du Langjun just because of Wei Wuhou and Ji Ling's one-sided words. I want you to bring the housekeeper to confront you!"

"Yes, that's right, Your Majesty, the minister also asked to bring the butler out to confront him. It must be Wei Wuhou, and it must be Wei Wuhou's envoy, Ji Ling, who came to frame us!" Du Langjun also said submissively.

The emperor stood up and said: "Well, I made such a big mistake, and I can't kill you two just because of Wei Wuhou and Ji Ling's words and a ledger, and I can't add crimes to you. That's enough for you guys, come and bring Du Langjun's butler to confront him!"

At this time, Duke Changning, who had been silent all this time, stood up in the hall, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment, I have something to report."

"Oh? What's the matter with Lord Changning?" the emperor asked.

Lord Changning replied: "Your Majesty, what Wei Wuhou and Ji Ling said is absolutely true. Du Langjun accepted bribes from the people, but most of the stolen money went to Guo Yunlong! Your Majesty, please convict!"

Guo Yunlong stood up and stammered in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't believe what Mr. Changning said. I ask the Emperor to confront the housekeeper!"

Then he turned his head and said to Changning Gong: "Changning Gong, I, I, we, we have no grievances with you, why do you help Wei Wuhou frame us, you, you, do you have evidence for saying that? Don't be wronged Good man, you have no evidence, why do you wrong me, Guo Yunlong, and Du Langjun?!"

"Enough, you villain, do you know that there is no evidence? Du Langjun, don't bother to upset the emperor, you can't find your housekeeper, because your housekeeper is in my Changsha. Duke Ning's Mansion takes refuge!"

Changning spoke righteously to Guo Yunlong and Du Langjun, and then respectfully said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please convict the two of them. Guo Yunlong is doing anything wrong outside the palace, doing nothing all day long. For eating, drinking and having fun, Du Langjun relied on Guo Yunlong's power to accept bribes, please the emperor convict him!"

The emperor's nose was crooked in anger, and he angrily reprimanded Du Langjun and Guo Yunlong, saying: "Well, you Guo Yunlong, relying on the blood relationship between your dead mother and I, you are running amok outside the palace! And you, Du Langjun , Relying on Guo Yunlong's relationship, accepting bribes! As the court officials, you don't sympathize with the people and understand the people's sentiments for me, but you behave like this. Today, in front of all my lovers, I dismissed Guo Yunlong's position! "
