After hearing the report from the officials of Yushitai, Emperor Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Submit the notebook!"
Immediately, a eunuch went down and took the notebook.
In this note, Wen Jinming put his heart into it, and wrote the matter in detail without any bias. He just showed the details of the matter from the perspective of a bystander.
But that's enough.
From the current point of view, Yan Luoying's actions are obviously inappropriate.
After pondering for a while, Emperor Zhou said: "Call Yan Luoying and Wen Jinming to the palace!"
"promise!"
Soon, Yan Luoying and Wen Jinming went to the hall together.
The two looked solemn.
Emperor Zhou asked someone to deliver the memorial to Yan Luoying, and asked with a blank expression: "Yan Luoying, is the statement in this memorial true?"
Yan Luoying opened the memorial, read it once, and said, "It's true!"
"Eighty percent of the guards in the patrol office have jointly petitioned to ask you to be transferred. What do you think?"
Yan Luoying said: "I think it's a little lacking, even 90% to 10% is normal. From this point of view, there are still some people in the patrol office who have a bit of conscience."
Emperor Zhou looked sullen, and asked, "Yan Luoying, you just went to the patrol office and lost your support, why do you still say that?"
Yan Luoying bowed and said: "Your Majesty, because I cut off the oil and water of the officials and guards at the patrol office!"
After finishing speaking, she said the matter of refusing to accept the benefits.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Jinming knelt down on the ground, bowed his head, and shouted: "Your Majesty, this Yan Luoying is planting a subordinate. When did someone in the patrol office accept benefits from others? This is completely wrong." It's nonsense, and the subordinates have never sent any money to Yan Luoying, so she is biting back at this humble minister."
Emperor Zhou looked at Yan Luoying, and said with a smile, "Empty talk has no proof, but is there any witness evidence?"
Yan Luoying said: "Su Wen, the deputy guard, went to the post with the minister, and also refused to accept the benefits. Your Majesty will know when he summons."
"Call Su Wen to the palace!"
Immediately, someone went to summon Su Wen.
Unexpectedly, compared with Yan Luoying and Wen Jinming, the person who summoned Su Wen didn't return.
Finally, the summoner and Su Wen arrived.
Emperor Zhou frowned and asked, "Why did it take so long to summon Su Wen?"
The summoner looked at Su Wen and hesitated.
That's right, to summon Yan Luoying and Wen Jinming, it would be fine to go straight to the patrol office, but this time he summoned Su Wen, but when he arrived at the patrol office, he was told that Su Wen hadn't come at all.
He had no choice but to transfer to the Prime Minister's Mansion. At this time, Young Master Su was still sleeping late, washing and dressing, and was really busy for a while.
If it was someone else, he would have said it, but Su Wen is Su Changqing's son after all, how dare he say it.
Fortunately, Su Wen cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I'm not feeling well today and I'm recuperating at home, so the person who summoned me was never found. He came later."
Emperor Zhou sized him up and said with a sneer, "You fellow, I have long heard that you are in poor health. If that is the case, you should take good care of yourself and avoid going to places with fireworks!"
After all, Emperor Zhou didn't want to be entangled, so he asked, "Did Wen Jinming do you any favors on the day you went to the patrol office?"
Su Wen said as a matter of course: "I gave it, and said it was two thousand five hundred taels, but I think it's too little, so I don't want it."
All the courtiers were dumbfounded, what kind of tiger-wolf words are these
Still too little? Want more
However, Emperor Zhou was obviously too lazy to talk to Su Wen, he was furious, stood up angrily, looked at Wen Jinming and scolded: "What else do you have to say?"
Wen Jinming was extremely nervous, kowtowed frantically, and shouted: "Your Majesty, Su Wen and Yan Luoying already have a marriage contract, how can Su Wen's testimony be counted!"
To everyone's surprise, Emperor Zhou sat back and said indifferently: "It makes sense, these two people really can't testify against each other!"
After speaking, she turned to look at Yan Luoying and asked, "Are there any other witnesses?"
"No more!" Yan Luoying could only tell the truth.
Emperor Zhou said: "Then this matter will be put on hold for now, and will be strictly investigated by the Yushitai. Now let's talk about your oppression of your subordinates. Do you have an explanation?"
Yan Luoying said: "This minister is not oppressive. The patrolling guards did not deal with it properly. The time limit given to Tian Kai is also to urge him to hunt down the murderer as soon as possible."
Emperor Zhou smiled and said, "That's true, what about Du Ping?"
"Interrogation with torture has existed since ancient times."
"It makes sense." Emperor Zhou glanced at Yan Luoying and Wen Jinming, and said, "Since this is the case, let's do it first. Yan Luoying will continue to serve as the defense of the East City! Come on down!"
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Emperor Zhou neither dealt with Wen Jinming nor transferred Yan Luoying.
Quite a bit of muddy taste.
Everyone in the court hall was thinking about it, not knowing what Emperor Zhou was thinking.
On the other side, in Wenyuan Pavilion, the atmosphere was a little tense.
Today is the annual official release day of Wenyuan Pavilion, and everyone hopes that they can find a good place.
The bachelors and editors in Wenyuan Pavilion can't read books, they walk around and chat, after all, if they are transferred, it may be the end of the world, and I don't know when they will see each other again.
Su Yu was not affected, and was still reading quietly.
"Look at him, how generous is he?"
"Hehe, if I had a father who was the prime minister, I would be tolerant."
"I'm afraid you already know the result?"
"The road is paved as soon as a person is born. It doesn't matter whether he studies or not. It's not like us. We have been struggling for ten years, and we have to fight to the death. The qualifications are released. If you want to be an official, you have already done it. I haven't heard of it. That dude Su Wen, His Majesty bestowed a marriage out of thin air, and even directly entered the patrol office to serve as a fifth-rank officer, he is much better than us."
Whispering came into his ears, and Su Yu's hand holding the book tightened a little.
"But do you know Su Xiang's poem?"
"Haha, who doesn't know? Now it has spread all over the capital."
"If life is just like the first time you saw it, what is the autumn wind and the sad painting fan? Have you heard that there are already stories in teahouses and restaurants."
"what story?"
"That is to say, Su Xiang and a rich lady back then. Su Xiang's family was poor and poor, and he studied hard in a poor window, and finally won the top prize in high school. Unfortunately, the lady has married someone else. Su Xiang was extremely sad, so he wrote such sad poems."
This Kyoto gossip is spread very quickly, and there are people with noses and eyes. I don't know what Su Changqing thought when he heard it.
He Sui was on the side, showing disdain. In his opinion, this poem is naturally excellent, but there is only half a sentence. Although he has to admit Su Changqing's talent, he is somewhat contemptuous. Even a complete poem Can't even write.
At this time, an eunuch entered Wenyuan Pavilion and was sent to the imperial list!
The imperial list was hung at the gate of Wenyuan Pavilion, and all the people who took office this year were on it.
He Sui was not in a hurry, he had already received the news that the crown prince had already arranged for him, and he would definitely take up the post this year, and it was a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as he was stable for a few years, he would be promoted.
This is the benefit of relying on the prince!
