Chapter 119: Get rid of the Zhou family

Views:

Mo Linyuan's reaction was calm, and Ye Mu glanced at his face. Three years ago, Mo Linyuan suddenly asked her to go to Liangzhou for secret disaster relief, and said that he only trusted her and told her to be careful.

After she went there, the scene was indeed like purgatory. Fortunately, she went with the silent monk, and it took two months to suppress the plague.

After she came back, she told Mo Linyuan about this, but he couldn't bear it. He didn't expect that today, three years later, he would break out.

Mo Linyuan chuckled, "Who gave you the courage to deceive you?"

His tone was gentle, but the murderous intent between the lines made people shudder!

Mu Guang only knew that he was dead, and now, he can only hope that this sin will not bring harm to his family

He suppressed the tears of remorse and gritted his teeth and said, "The minister received 50,000 taels of silver from Taiwei Zhou at that time. Those silver ministers were buried under the minister's sleeping quarters without moving a single penny. I beg Your Majesty to open the door!"

Mu Guangcai's accusation made Zhou Gu retreat again and again. He looked at Wen Ze as if asking for help, but found that Wen Ze was not looking at him at all! Zhou Gu's heart is getting worse and worse. Could it be that tonight is not only against the Zhong family, but also against his Zhou family? !

Why? The three major families are all prosperous, why does Wen Ze help the emperor? !

He couldn't figure it out, but he knew that he could never admit this sin!

So he gritted his teeth and knelt down again!

"Your Majesty is clear! The old ministers don't know why they slandered the ministers, but the things they said, the ministers have never done!"

After all, it's been three years since it happened, who has proof that he took the money

Zhou Qi, the second son of the Zhou family, who was working in the Ministry of Household Affairs, also rushed out and said, "Your Majesty's clear lesson! Back then, the Ministry of Household did indeed broadcast one million taels of silver, and we never dared to embezzle the slightest bit!"

Mo Linyuan smiled, "Do you think I have no evidence?"

He waved his hand and said again, "Tan Junqing, Sun Bai, come out."

The people who were named were stunned for a moment, showing expressions like mourning, and walked out slowly, kneeling on the ground.

"You are also working in the Ministry of Household, and you are working under Zhou Qi. You prepared the disaster relief materials at the beginning. Now that so many people have died, what do you have to say?"

They didn't hesitate at all and told the truth directly.

"Your Majesty, spare your life. Because of the lack of money, the minister had to use Chen Mi to recharge it, and the linen he bought was the lowest quality linen, which could be opened as soon as it was torn. In order to prevent these things from happening to the public one day, the minister had an account book in his hand. , can prove innocence! The Zhou family gave the minister 30,000 taels of silver, and the minister did not move at all, and would help the Zhou family to do things, it was because of the Zhou family's persecution!"

Ledger? Actually, there are accounts

Zhou Gu only felt that the cold air rushed towards him one by one. Today, Mo Linyuan wanted to kill him!

Mo Linyuan said, "Okay, let's step back first. Any evidence will be handed over to Zixu. In addition, let's continue to talk about the sale and purchase of official positions by Patriarch Zhou."

He swept his eyes and landed on a person who had returned with Zhou Gu with a smile on his face.

"Hanpin, right? I heard that you bought the official position from the Zhou family at the beginning, and then brought it all the way to the fourth grade, is there such a thing?"

The man was startled, and quickly knelt behind Zhou Gu and said loudly, "There is absolutely no such thing! The minister has been promoted step by step through the imperial examinations and political achievements! Lord Zhou has the grace to promote the minister, other than that. , there is no other contact between us."

"Okay, then I'll start with your imperial examinations. You were originally the son of a rich man in Xuzhou, and at the age of eighteen you finally became the local county magistrate, right?"

Han Pin's face trembled, and he lowered his voice and said, "Yes, yes."

Mo Linyuan smiled, and a big eunuch next to him took a pen and paper, and then came the emperor's cold voice above his head.

"Then you must be very talented in writing. I will test you, and you will write a poem on the topic of tonight's night hunting, how about it?"

When Han Pin heard this, the pen in his hand was about to fall off! He just learned to read, how could he possibly write poetry

However, he was still very smart. He held the pen for a while before saying, "Poems need inspiration, Your Majesty. I'm sorry to admit that I have no inspiration right now."

"Oh? Then you can write a poem that Yue Xuezheng likes the most. He was your chief examiner at the time, and he said that the poems you wrote were very in line with his hobbies. You must have studied his hobbies. It's not difficult. Bar?"

Han Pin's face was pale. He was taking the test on his behalf. How could he know what kind of poems the examiner at that time liked

He gritted his teeth, then wrote a poem casually, handed it over, and said nervously, "Your Majesty, Yue Xuezheng is only one of a kind, this minister thinks that his favorite should be this one."

Who knew that when he wrote this poem, Zhou Gu in front of him suddenly had a very bad premonition! Sure enough, listening to the high platform, Ye Mu said with a smile.

"It wasn't Yue Xuezheng who went to invigilate the exam, but Zhang Xuezheng!"

After Ye Mu finished speaking, some of the civil servants who were sitting on the side stood up and said quickly, "Your Majesty, at the beginning, it was indeed the examination of the minister, but the minister never took bribes. At first, I really thought that Mr. Han's poem was written. It's very good, I just started to love talents!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Pin's face turned ashen in an instant, and he quickly said, "Yes, yes, it's Zhang Xuezheng, the minister remembered it wrong before!"

After he finished speaking, he tore up the white paper in front of him, trembling all over.

At this moment, Ye Mu smiled again, and she said faintly, "Actually, I lied to you just now, and it's not Zhang Xuezheng's exam."

When she said this, Han Pin's face instantly turned ashen!

Mo Linyuan suppressed his smile, "Let's talk about political achievements."

He took out a book, dropped it in a low voice, and said with a smile, "In the beginning, you were able to rise all the way and finally became a Beijing official because you warned of the flood season in advance and built embankments to save the local people from floods, but this is the case. ?"

Han Pin did not dare to answer lightly at this time, because he did not do the building of the embankment at all!

Sure enough, Ye Mu jumped out and said, "It was clear that I was passing the Changfeng Embankment at first, and seeing that the local riverbed was too high and the terrain was too low, so I joined the local rich gentry to build the embankment together. I have a gold medal and arrow in hand, but this embankment can’t be repaired yet! But if you don’t want to finish it, since this is your achievement?”

This time, Han Pin is really speechless, the emperor has long stared at him, he has no other way to go except confessing his guilt!

Mo Linyuan squinted his eyes, and suddenly his voice became louder!

"Bold Hanpin, you are still not recruiting! How did you get your official position? If you don't tell the truth, your family will be buried with you!"

The defense line of the opponent's heart was destroyed at once, and Han Pin lowered his head with a whimper, "Your Majesty, please spare your life! Chen Zhao, Chen Zhao! These are the moves that Zhou Taiwei gave to Chen Zhi! The officials of the minister are from his hands. bought!"
