my wife is mulan

Zhao Junsheng put down the file and asked, "Is the case going well this time?"

He Zeng clapped his hands and replied: "There was a lot of resistance. Three censors were killed during the investigation process, more than 30 soldiers were killed, and more than a dozen people were injured! If I hadn't asked for the gold medal bestowed by Your Majesty Mobilize the immediate garrison, suspend them, and prohibit them from going out and meeting other people, I am afraid that this case will not be investigated, and whoever investigates will die!"

Zhao Junsheng had already received the relevant report, and he raised his fist and thumped the imperial case furiously: "It's so audacious! Where are these people now?"

"They are all under house arrest!"

Zhao Junsheng immediately issued a decree: "Pass down my order, take these people to Qianjing, put them in the prison, and transfer the case to Dali Temple!"

"Observe the order!" He Zeng agreed, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Your Majesty, how should Cui Hao deal with it?"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a moment, then waved his hand: "Shut up in the prison as well, let's go!"

"Yes!"

There are too many officials involved in this case, a total of 72 people, and the officials under them. There are 360 ​​people in total. The interrogation task of Dali Temple is very heavy. This case took a year to complete the trial .

In July of the 16th year of Qianguo, Dali Temple sent the trial results of 360 six officials involved in the case to Zhao Junsheng's imperial case. Marble's judgments on these officials were basically condemned to ransack their homes and be executed after autumn.

Only for Cui Hao's judgment, Dali Temple did not give a conclusion. After all, this person's previous contributions were too great, and his official and titles were too high.

Zhao Junsheng suppressed this judgment for a full month, mainly because of Cui Hao. He was also hesitant to deal with Cui Hao. It was not until a month later that he approved the judgment in the judgment. 360 Six officials, big and small, were all sentenced to ransack their homes and executed after autumn!

Chapter 780 The deadline is approaching

Hua Mulan immediately rushed over from the inner palace when she learned that Zhao Junsheng had approved the verdict of confiscating the homes of 360 six officials including Cui Hao and beheading them in autumn.

"Your Majesty, let your servants go in and report to His Majesty!" The eunuch outside the hall said hastily.

"Go away, I want to see my husband and want to report?" Hua Mulan pushed the little eunuch away and rushed into the hall angrily.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty is dealing with state affairs, so don't disturb him at will..." The little eunuch chased after him.

Zhao Junsheng knew that Hua Mulan was coming when he heard the voice, and it seemed that he would complain about it today, he looked at the little eunuch, and waved to him helplessly: "You step back first!"

The little eunuch retreated after saluting.

Zhao Junsheng smiled and asked Hua Mulan: "Mulan, what's the matter with you? Who made you angry?"

"you!"

"Me?" Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but smile wryly, "I've been reviewing memorials here all day, so I didn't offend you!"

Hua Mulan asked: "Let me ask you, what evidence do you have to prove that Cui Hao has a relationship with those people? What evidence do you have to prove that Cui Hao formed a party for personal gain? If you don't have evidence, you will kill him. Don't you, the emperor, kill whoever you want?" ? Let me tell you, this is what a foolish king did!"

Zhao Junsheng apologized and said with a smile: "Mulan, you're talking too much, I admit that I am not a wise king, but I will not be reduced to the ranks of a foolish king!"

"You kill people indiscriminately, why are you not a faint king!"

Zhao Junsheng said seriously: "Mulan, people have to pay for their actions! Judging from all the evidence in this case, Cui Hao was pushed out by those people as a banner, and he himself did not participate in their clique formation, but if If it wasn't for his recommendation and promotion over the years, these gangsters wouldn't have such great power!"

Hua Mulan was very upset: "Why are you being so unreasonable? He did it unintentionally, not on purpose!"

"If he did it on purpose, then it's not about ransacking the house and killing Qiu Hou Wen, but a heinous crime!"

After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he asked back: "I don't understand, what does Cui Hao have to do with you? Why are you so enthusiastic? I suppressed the judgment of Dali Temple for a month. I have been thinking about it for a while. Do you think I Is it just for a moment? I have carefully considered it, okay? Alright, there is no need to talk about this matter, are you going to quarrel with me because of this matter?"

Seeing that Zhao Junsheng couldn't move, Hua Mulan had no choice but to give up, saying, "I'm leaving!"

When Zhao Junsheng saw that Hua Mulan was gone, he fell into deep thought. Today, Hua Mulan's reaction was quite abnormal. She never interfered with his decisions on state affairs, but today she almost had a big fight with him.

Zhao Junsheng waved to a little eunuch next to him: "Go and follow the queen, see who she has met with, and report as soon as you find out!"

"Yes!"

Hua Mulan was not prepared that Zhao Junsheng would send someone to follow her. She was still a eunuch with no martial arts skills, so she didn't notice it at all along the way.

She came to the Charity Federation not long after she left the palace in a carriage. The little eunuch who followed her was worried that she would not dare to go in, but when he was hesitating, he found that there was another carriage at the door of the Charity Federation, so he secretly Hide nearby and watch and wait.

After Hua Mulan entered the Charity Federation, a woman came forward to salute: "Your Majesty!"

Hua Mulan nodded and asked, "Is the national teacher here?"

"It's already here, the servant has arranged for him to drink tea in the living room!"

"it is good!"

Guided by the woman, Hua Mulan came to the guest room.

Kou Qianzhi, who was drinking tea, got up immediately when he saw this, and gave a slap: "Meet the empress!"

Hua Mulan raised her hand: "There is no need for the national teacher to be too polite, let's sit down and talk!"

"Thank you madam!"

The maidservant brought tea, Hua Mulan took two sips of tea and said to Kou Qianzhi, "I have not changed your Majesty's decision regarding the matter of Mr. Cui, the national teacher, I have tried my best!"

Kou Qianzhi sighed after hearing this: "Your Majesty has such thoughts, and I am so grateful to you! In fact, I have already reached this end, and the reason why I asked you to help me is just to do my best. It seems that this is Cui Hao's. Fate, he can't avoid this catastrophe!"

After coming out of the Charity Federation, Kou Qianzhi was spotted by the following eunuch as soon as he appeared, "It turned out to be him!"

The little eunuch ran back to the palace as quickly as possible and reported the situation to Zhao Junsheng. Zhao Junsheng felt a little funny when he heard it. Kou Qianzhi, an old man, wanted to intercede for Cui Hao, but he didn't dare to come, so he asked Hua Mulan There.

"Hua Mulan, you silly girl, Kou Laodao is so miserable in front of you that you will soften your heart and come here to make trouble with me!" Zhao Junsheng sighed and shook his head.

Two days later, Cui Hao was meditating in the quiet room of the Taoist temple outside the city, when a young Taoist priest opened the door and came in to report: "Master, the emperor is coming, and the officials from the province under the door came to inform Master to go down the mountain to meet him!"

Kou Qianzhi was startled, why did the emperor arrive so suddenly without any news in advance?He couldn't think of the reason, and murmured to himself: "No wonder I woke up this morning feeling restless, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse!"

"Go, follow me down the mountain to meet Yujia!"

When Kou Qianzhi arrived at the foot of the mountain with a large number of Taoist priests, the emperor's guards were already standing guard on both sides of the road at the foot of the mountain. Every few feet there was a soldier with a weapon hanging from his waist, and every soldier in the guard was holding a banner. , Two long teams, with many banners and flags, so mighty.

From far away, I heard the sound of drums, and soon I saw the royal team approaching in the distance. In front of the dozen or so rows were eunuchs holding signs saying "Quiet" and "Avoid", followed by some court ladies carrying flower baskets. , and then there is Zhao Junsheng's royal carriage, flanked by cavalry guards from the Dragon Guards.

The imperial carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and Kou Qianzhi immediately came forward with his disciples and grandchildren to pay his respects.

"Chen Kouqian pays homage to His Majesty, His Majesty is here to see you, and you will see the splendor!"

Zhao Junsheng came down from the imperial chariot in a dragon robe, walked up to Kou Qianzhi, raised his hand and said, "The national teacher is old, there is no need to be polite, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion, old minister!" Kou Qianzhi said, leading his disciples and grandchildren to get up.

Zhao Junsheng said: "I haven't been to your Taoist temple since it was completed. I just happened to be free today and thought of it again, so I came to have a look. The national teacher will accompany me up the mountain to visit the Taoist temple!"

"The honor of the old minister is also the honor of all the Taoist priests in the Dao Temple, please, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded, and started to walk up the mountain.
