Chapter 223 Rumor has it
Shuntian Prefecture Yin coughed lightly and said, "We will talk about it after a careful review."
He Yushi frowned slightly and said nothing.
Yin of Shuntian Prefecture knew that this was a thorn in the side, so he had to ask: "What does the censor think?"
"This case is important, and Master Tian should examine it carefully." He Yushi said calmly, "I will report it to you now."
Shuntian Fuyin's mouth twitched fiercely, and his temples twitched: "He Yushi, you just said that you can't trust one-sided words! Even if you want to report it to me, you have to wait for an investigation before saying anything, right?"
Stabilize this smelly rock first, and then report the news to His Highness Prince Qing. If it really makes a big fuss later, he has tried his best.
"You should be careful with your one-sided words for Lord Tian, but you should be careful with your one-sided words when it comes to lower officials -" He Yushi's lips curled up slightly, "What's wrong with lower officials? As a supervisory official, the lower official has the right to report things based on rumors."
The most special power granted to officials by the Xia Dynasty was to report rumors. They could impeach officials based on rumors.
Shuntian Prefecture Yin was speechless, and lowered his voice slowly: "He Yushi, this citizen girl is suing King Qing, don't you think about the consequences?"
He Yushi's face straightened and he said loudly: "I only consider He Qing and Hai Yan, and the people will be at peace."
Yin of Shuntian Prefecture knew that he could not persuade her any more, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Please do as you please, Censor He, but I want to interrogate this woman's complaint to Shuntian Prefecture."
“Master Tian has his own responsibilities, and the subordinate officials dare not say anything.”
Before finally leaving, Yushi He glanced at the girl who was kneeling upright, which was both a reminder and a warning: "As the plaintiff, Miss Zhu's safety is entrusted to Mr. Tian. If something goes wrong if Miss Zhu is summoned today, you It’s hard for me to explain.”
Shuntianfu Yin's heart trembled, and he said in a loud voice: "Of course I know."
After He Yushi left, Shuntian Prefecture Yin's tense nerves relaxed slightly, and he had a headache when he looked at Zhu Xiaoyue kneeling on the ground.
“Miss Zhu, when did you come to Beijing?”
"The daughter of the people has been in Beijing for a while. I found out that the Lord of Shuntian Mansion is the parent officer responsible for judging the case, so I came to ask you to make the decision for the daughter of the people."
Shuntianfu Yin: “…”
Knowing that there was still a storm waiting behind him, Yin of Shuntian Prefecture ordered his people to be optimistic about Zhu Xiaoyue and quietly told his confidants: "Go to Prince Qing's Mansion..."
As for Minister Pei, he had no intention of sending anyone to report the news. It wasn't that he had a bad relationship with Pei Shilang, but that the matter was brought to the attention of the emperor by He Yushi. Once it was found out that there was corruption of money and money, King Qing would be safe and sound, and Pei Shilang would be in trouble.
Shuntian Fuyin doesn’t want to cause more trouble.
In the elegant room of a certain teahouse, He Qingxiao was listening to reports from his subordinates.
“Replying to your lord, Yushi He went to the direction of the imperial city, and another person quietly left Shuntian Mansion and went to Prince Qing’s Mansion…”
Zhu Xiaoyue stopped the sedan chair to complain, and the person who read out the complaint was the person arranged by He Qingxiao. After that, several Jinlin guards who were good at covering up kept a close eye on Shuntian Mansion Office and paid attention to the development of the situation.
He Yushihui's report to the palace was not as expected by He Qingxiao, and it was also expected that Yin of Shuntian Prefecture would report to King Qing.
Except for a few direct ministers like He Yushi, few officials dared to bet that the emperor would abandon King Qing, and naturally they did not dare to offend King Qing to death.
“Did someone stop me?”
“We stopped him, and the person who reported the news was sent to the hospital.” The subordinate said, looking at He Qingxiao with admiration in his eyes.
Your Excellency is really resourceful and can think of all kinds of ways to stop people.
He Qingxiao was so perceptive that he could see what his subordinates were thinking at a glance, which made him a little embarrassed.
This method of stopping people is still because of Miss Kou. The flowerpot fell from a high place among the countless unlucky things he encountered, and was particularly profound because of Miss Kou's words.
“Keep watching, and report anything in time.”
The men followed the order and left. He Qingxiao looked out the window, looking in the direction of the imperial city. The court had been dismissed for some time, and Emperor Xingyuan was summoning several important ministers to discuss matters. When he heard the report from his chamberlain that the imperial censor asked for an audience, he couldn't help but frown.
Although the supervisory censor's official position is low, he can directly face the emperor, and this often means that something unpleasant has happened.
“Let him in.”
Not long after, Yushi He bowed and walked in, bowed his hands and saluted: "I have seen your Majesty."
Perhaps this is the reason why Yushi He is tall. Although he is hunched over, he still gives people a straight feeling.
Emperor Xingyuan liked this upright young official very much, and his tone was gentler than when he was in court: "What's the matter with He Yushi?"
Several ministers also pricked up their ears.
Yushi He is a famous stinking stone, who is going to be unlucky this time?
He Yushi didn't care about the presence of high-ranking officials, and said in a deep voice: "I impeach King Qing, the imperial envoy for disaster relief, and Pei Zuo, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, for being greedy for money and money, and causing harm to the people."
“What?” Emperor Xingyuan thought he heard wrongly.
Several ministers also took a deep breath, looking in disbelief.
Among the ministers present was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. When he heard that the fire was burning in his yamen, his expressions were even more exciting than those of several colleagues.
"I impeach King Qing, the imperial envoy for disaster relief, and Pei Zuo, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, for being greedy for money and causing harm to the people." He Yushi said loudly.
All ministers: “…”
Emperor Xingyuan's face suddenly turned cold, as if covered with a layer of frost: "How did Yu Shi hear this? Please tell me carefully!"
“Wei Chen went to Shuntian Prefecture and met a woman on the way who stopped the sedan chair of Lord Yin Tian of Shuntian Prefecture to cry for injustice...” He Yushi finished speaking and handed over the petition, “Please have your Majesty take a look.”
Emperor Xingyuan glanced at the **** Sun Yan.
Sun Yan stepped forward to take the paper and presented it to Emperor Xingyuan.
The handwriting is beautiful and elegant, and it can be seen that it was written by a woman. What is written on the paper is exactly the same as what Yushi said.
After reading each word, Emperor Xingyuan's face became so dark that water could drip from his face.
All the ministers lowered their eyes, and one could hear the needle drop in the room.
I don’t know how much time passed. When all the ministers could hardly breathe in the stagnant atmosphere, Emperor Xingyuan finally spoke: "King Chuanqing and Pei Zuo, the left minister of the household department, will enter the palace immediately."
His tone was relatively calm, but the ministers who had been with the emperor for many years could feel the storm beneath the calm.
And killed a whole town of people?
If this is true, King Qing will not say anything, and the whole family of Pei Shilang will be executed lightly!
You must know that the emperor hates corrupt officials the most. Not to mention embezzling large sums of money, there was an official who lost his head after embezzling a hundred taels of silver.
In Prince Qing’s Mansion, Prince Qing, who had not received any news from Yin Tong from Shuntian Prefecture, looked happy after hearing the oral instructions given by his chamberlain: “Father, do you really want to see me?”
Since his uncle's accident, he has not been able to see his father for so many days. Is his father relieved?
The chamberlain who came to deliver the message did not know what was going on. He only said: "Your Highness, please hurry up. I'm waiting to see you today."
"well."
King Qing quickly changed his clothes and rushed to the palace in a good mood.
“Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Qing has arrived.”
“Let him in.”
Following the report from the chamberlain, King Qing walked in quickly.
