Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 196

"You...you..." Chen Yifeng didn't expect Wang Ping'an to fight back so sharply. As a supervisory censor, he had to monitor whether the imperial court, officials, gentry and local tyrants committed any wrongdoing, and whether they were responsible for bullying the people. When he is angry, he will only talk about you.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Er looked at Wang Ping'an with incredible eyes. He never thought that Wang Ping'an would dare to say anything and act carefully.

Chen Yifeng couldn't speak, so he could only ask Li Er for help. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Your Majesty, you want to make decisions for this humble official. General Feihu created something out of nothing and slandered my humble official."

"Wang Pingan, what explanation do you have for Chen Aiqing's slander? If not, I will punish you for slandering an official of the court." Li Er said sternly. In fact, he also said this to Chen Yifeng. I will punish him. If you slander Wang Pingan, I will punish you too.

"If you go back to His Majesty, I can confront Chen Yushi one by one. But I don't know if Chen Yushi is willing to confront my minister?" Wang Ping'an asked.

"Weichen...Weichen is willing." Chen Yifeng said helplessly, he had no evidence, he only listened to what others said.

"Quick play." Li Er said, he wanted to see what kind of moth Wang Pingan could do.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Wang Pingan thanked Li Er, he turned to Chen Yifeng and said, "Chen Yushi, may I ask, what judgment do you use, the boy bribed the court for his own selfishness, used the name of the court to embezzle the prisoner for private use, and built a building for him. The so-called Commercial Plaza."

"The old man saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears. This is not true." Chen Yifeng said unhappily.

"If you see it with your own eyes, it must be true. Aren't you afraid that others will lie to you when you hear it with your own ears? As a supervisory censor, I listen and believe. I don't know how many censors are like you, and you say that everything is right. Wrong." Wang Pingan said disdainfully.

"You... I don't want to argue with you, I ask you, is it possible that all the prisoners on the construction site in the south are fake?" Chen Yifeng said holding back his anger.

"It's true, the boy asked Lord Du, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, to ask for it. That's why there are scenes of these prisoners working."

"Just admit it. Hehe..." Chen Yifeng said with a smile, and then said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, you see that Wang Ping'an has already admitted it. Please punish him."

Before Li Er could answer, Wang Pingan jumped out again and said, "Wait, I don't know if Mr. Chen is too stupid to understand what the boy meant. Say it again, and listen clearly. The prisoner was approved by the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Everything is in line with the law." The procedures are not for private use as you said."

"This..." Chen Yifeng was a little speechless.

"Also, the boy not only makes the prisoners work on the construction site, but also invites the wives and children of the prisoners to work on the construction site together. If there are elders in the family, their wages will be sent to their elders to gather the prisoners' children. Ask the teacher to teach them to read and write, have you investigated these, have you seen them, and heard about them?" Wang Pingan asked aggressively.

"This... this..." Chen Yifeng was speechless again.

However, Li Er and the court ministers were in an uproar. Unexpectedly, Wang Ping'an even took care of the prisoner's family, which was different from what Chen Yifeng said.

Wang Pingan ignored everyone's reaction and continued: "Do you know how much tax revenue will be brought to the imperial court after the construction of the commercial plaza, and how much food will be brought to the national treasury by a share of it? I only see the large area now. Breaking ground, laboring people and money, but not knowing the future benefits, this is not the point, the point is that I have not used a penny of the court.

You all believe in Mr. Wei's character, you can ask him, do I, Wang Pingan, get a penny from the imperial court? "

Wei Zheng didn't expect Wang Pingan to point him out, but he still stood up to give Wang Pingan justice: "Return to your majesty, what General Feihu said is correct, he didn't ask the court for a penny."

There was an uproar again at the scene. It's none of your business if they didn't pay for it themselves.

Especially the people from the Sixth Ministry, they now see Chen Yifeng as a dead person, why would they join Wang Pingan if there is nothing to do, why would they join him to drag us together if there is nothing wrong with him, this is not the way to seek death.

Just listen to Wang Pingan continue to say: "I said Mr. Chen, do I need to go on with the rest? Your duty is indeed to monitor whether the officials have violated the law and discipline, but if you attack without evidence Ministers in the court, if you say it small, you will wrong others, but if you say it big, it will affect the safety of the country."

Chen Yifeng was trembling all over and could hardly stand still. Although, as a supervisory censor, it was impossible for him to be convicted of reading someone else's book, but this did not prevent him from being afraid, afraid that the boy in front of him would beat him to pieces.

He simply knelt down, with his head on the ground, and shouted at Li Er: "My minister is guilty, my minister is guilty... my minister is guilty..."

Wang Pingan watched Chen Yifeng keep calling himself guilty, and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Return to Your Majesty, I believe that a department should be set up under the supervisory censor, and his duty is to conduct special investigations based on the situation that the supervisory censor knows. Collect evidence, then hand over the evidence to the supervisory censor, and finally report it to His Majesty, I believe that the incidents of these supervisory censors wronging others will be reduced."

Changsun Wuji stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, what Wang Ping'an said is true. It is the responsibility of the supervisory censor to supervise all officials, but they often listen to others first, and then go to check directly. If someone is interested, it must be Since the evidence has been destroyed, it is better to set up an investigation department under the supervisory censor."

Li Er glanced at a minister, and said, "What do you think?"

"The minister agrees."

"The minister agrees."

……

After Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Li Ji and others stood up and agreed, the rest of the people shouted in unison: "I agree."

"The Ministry of Officials will arrange for officials to set up a department." Li Er ordered.

"I obey the order." Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said.

Li Er looked at Chen Yifeng and said: "Chen Yifeng, you should take care of the king's worries when you eat the king's salary. As the supervisory censor, before investigating the matter clearly, he wronged other ministers and was punished for three months."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Yifeng kowtowed again in gratitude.

Everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It was common for the supervisory censor to criticize other ministers. In fact, the emperor was like a mirror in his heart, and he would not be convicted of a few words by the supervisory censor.
