Unparalleled Concubine

Without this layer of aura, they will all go to jail for just this one charge of disorderly power!

Emperor Yuanzhao was only 14 years old at the moment, and he had never seen such a big scene. Hearing this, he froze in place, staring blankly at Li Xin.

"Teacher... this..."

Li Xin kowtowed and said, "No matter what decision His Majesty makes, I will definitely support His Majesty. There are 13 soldiers in the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army outside the city. They are all swords in the hands of the emperor. Listen to Your Majesty's orders."

The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher, you should get up and talk first. It seems that the matter is not so serious, and I haven't figured out the situation yet..."

Li Xin still knelt on the ground with his head down.

The emperor had no choice but to turn his head to look at the ministers at the Shangshutai, and then at Ji Lin, and said in a bit of embarrassment: "Zhuqing, the Taifu sued you for disorderly power, and you are also present, so you are here with the Taifu ...distinguish and distinguish?"

Ji Lin was frightened to death by Li Xin's words, he was the first to kneel in front of the emperor, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, two days ago the Taifu went to the Governor's Mansion to communicate with the ministers, and the Governor's Mansion is sure about this matter. There is some dereliction of duty, but it is definitely not as serious as what the Taifu said, besides, the minister and Qianniuweilang Zhou Qingyang don't know each other, and they haven't even met each other, let alone using him to control the imperial army!"

He bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Tai Tuo took advantage of the topic to make a big fuss..."

Li Xin was still kneeling on the ground at this moment, his face expressionless.

"Whether the governor knows Zhou Qingyang or not, this kind of promotion is more important than a mountain."

With that said, Li Xin turned his head to look at the ministers at Shangshutai.

"Besides, the governor doesn't recognize Zhou Qingyang, but most of the prime ministers do."

Shen Kuan's face was extremely ugly, he walked slowly and walked out of the queue of civil servants.

As a civil servant, he naturally thought more than Ji Lin.

This Mrs. Li is too ruthless...

A mere Captain Zhechong may be a big deal in the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army, but it is not worth mentioning in the court. No matter how Li Xin makes a big fuss, he can't make a big fuss, let alone shake the status of their several assistant ministers .

What's terrible is that Li Xin said the word "pro-government".

This Zuo Pushe looked up at the 14-year-old emperor with some anxiety.

He was not sure in his heart whether the emperor wanted to be in power!

No matter how old you are, as long as you come into contact with power, you always want to hold it in your hands as soon as possible.

If Emperor Yuanzhao also takes this opportunity to take charge of the government, then Li Xin will really "make a fuss out of a molehill" and succeed!

Shen Kuan came out of the class, holding the imperial wat in his hand, and bowed his head deeply to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, it is clear that this matter is absolutely nonsense..."

Chapter 859 Blackmail?

It is impossible to admit it. Once it is admitted that Shangshutai intends to control the Forbidden Army, then it is tantamount to a dissent in the center of the court. At that time, not only Shen Kuan, but all the ministers of Shangshutai will probably face prison. disaster.

So on this issue, no matter what, we have to refuse to admit it.

Shen Kuan held the imperial wat in his hands, and bowed his head deeply to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I have received the grace of the late emperor to become a minister who assists the government wholeheartedly. There is absolutely no dissent, and it is even more impossible for me to have the intention of controlling the imperial army."

He lowered his head, pondered for a while, gritted his teeth, and said, "This time, the transfer order of the Imperial Army was recommended by the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. After reading it at the Shangshutai as usual, I found that there were seals of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the inspection and verification seal of the Ministry of War on it." , This is the seal."

"When it comes to military officers, the Ministry of War generally has the final say. With the Ministry of War's inspection and verification seal, there is no reason for Shang Shutai not to print it."

The transfer order in Li Xin's hand was indeed recommended by the governor, inspected by the Ministry of War, and then printed by Shangshutai to take effect. Shangshutai was the last process.

Shen Kuan bowed his head deeply to the Son of Heaven: "Even if, as Taifu Li said, Qian Sheng, the right servant of the Ministry of War, privately inspected and verified the seal, my Shang Shutai didn't know about it in advance, and there was no connection. This is a trivial matter, at most, there is a problem within the Ministry of War, and Taifu Li, as the Minister of the Ministry of War, does not think about the crime of negligence of his own supervision, but instead beats him up and bites the Governor's Mansion and the Minister's Office, his heart is to be punished."

What he meant was that Shang Shutai didn't know anything about it, and with just a few words, he gently removed Shang Shutai from this matter, and shifted all responsibility to the Governor's Mansion and the Minister of the Ministry of War, Qian Sheng. on the head.

In other words, not only Zhou Qingyang and Qian Sheng were betrayed by him, but even his "ally" Ji Lin was pushed out by him in desperation and stood in front of him.

Shen Xiang bowed his head respectfully: "Your Majesty, please learn from me."

Li Xin smiled coldly: "If I hadn't discovered it, Prime Minister Shen could indeed ask me about a crime of oversight, but I was the one who brought up the mistake of the Ministry of War. Where did the oversight that Prime Minister Shen mentioned come from?"

"Shen Xiang just said a few words lightly and cleverly, and wanted to get himself out of this matter, but I'm afraid it won't work!"

Li Xin was expressionless, and said in a deep voice: "I asked Qian Sheng at the Ministry of War three days ago, and Qian Sheng admitted that this matter was ordered by Shang Shutai. Before this incident, I also went to Shangshutai, Shangshutai is inextricably linked with this incident, how can Shen Xiang be able to clear it up in a few words?"

Lord Jing'an also bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this matter is very easy to investigate. You just need to check whether Qian Sheng, Zhou Qingyang and others have any contact with Shangshutai. I am not in the Sanju Department, so it is not easy to start the investigation. Please allow your majesty to decree that Chen Chen will be in charge of this matter at most. In two days, I can deliver the ironclad evidence to Weiyang Palace!"

At this time, his face was already torn, and Shen Kuan didn't care about being gentle anymore. He snorted coldly at Li Xin: "Zhou Qingyang is a military officer, and Qian Sheng has been Taifu Li's subordinate for many years. If these two people are handed over to Mrs. Li In the interrogation, it is indeed easy to give a confession."

Li Xin turned to look at Shen Kuan.

"Who would give a confession that would put him to death?"

"Since Shen is the chief civil servant, he is naturally a smart person, but don't treat others as fools."

Li Xin took a deep breath, no longer looked at Shen Kuan, but turned to look at the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty, whether it is Prime Minister Shen, Zhongshu Ling, or the Zuo Dudu of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, they are all assistant ministers ordered by the late emperor. The minister is just a minister of the Ministry of War who temporarily helps His Majesty take care of the right battalion of the forbidden army. It stands to reason Said that the minister could not, and did not dare to offend a few assistant ministers."

"However, these assistant ministers have bad intentions and are harmful to the court. Since the minister has seen it, he has to say it."

Li Xin tidied up his court clothes and knelt on the ground again.

"Your Majesty, please, Xu Chen investigates this matter, and when the truth comes to light, His Majesty will know that the assistant ministers are not worthy, and His Majesty can take charge of the government in advance."

Emperor Yuanzhao was a little confused.

He is still a 14-year-old child. Today he is the same as before. He came to the main hall of Weiyang Palace for a cutscene. Tell the ministers!

He didn't make any preparations in advance, and his mind was blank at the moment, he didn't know what to say.

"Old...teacher, I have no choice but to make a decision on this matter, or... let it go for a while and discuss it later?"

Li Xin knelt on the ground with a blank expression on his face.

"I took the risk to write a letter. If Your Majesty refuses, I will offend a few assistant ministers, and I will not be able to stay in court in the future. I will write a letter to beg for the bones to return to my hometown and return to my hometown in Yongzhou to retire."

As soon as he said these words, the eyelids of the crowd in the court jumped.

At the beginning of the ninth year of Taikang, Li Xin was imprisoned in Dali Temple by Emperor Taikang. Although this matter was kept secret, most of the senior officials in the capital knew about it. Then Li Xin returned to Beijing, and the first emperor was furious about it.

They even knew something about the quarrel between the late emperor and Li Xin.

Some well-informed people even noticed that Li Xin had already ruled the Southwest!
