Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

above the hall.

Before the dynasty dispersed, the main hall once again reached a deadlock.

Led by the imperial censor Shi Shen Zheng, more than a dozen important officials stepped forward and launched an impeachment campaign against many powerful people in the capital. On the surface, they were impeaching the powerful people without the law of the king, but secretly they pointed the finger at King Kang.

Shi Yushi, who was the first to stand up, was also stunned in place, not expecting the current situation at all.

He looked back and seemed to realize something. He looked at Tang Huai, the Minister of Rites not far away, with a strange color in his eyes.

When no one stood up to impeach, officials had roughly figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

These impeachments can actually be roughly classified into three things.

The first thing is that some dignitaries in the capital were indeed too arrogant and lawless after King Kang came to power. They preyed on the common people and caused public outrage, causing the censors and courtiers to rush to impeach them.

The second case is that Xu Cheng, the Minister of Punishment, shielded these people, leaving the people with nowhere to redress their grievances and complain.

The last thing is that after some impeachment reports were submitted to the Shangshu Province, there was no news, and there was no news. The fingerpoint of this matter was pointed at certain officials of the Shangshu Province.

When these three things are connected, it is a huge event. Even the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Secretariat have been infiltrated. This not only harms the common people, but also brings disaster to the court.

Chen Huang was sitting above him, with no emotion or anger on his face. He looked at Xu Cheng, the Minister of Justice, and asked, "Is this the case?"

Xu Cheng's face turned a little pale. Naturally, he couldn't admit it at this time. He forced himself to calm down and said: "I am definitely not protecting you. Your Majesty, please tell me clearly!"

Chen Huang thought for a while and said: "Since there are so many people impeaching, the Minister of Punishment is temporarily suspended. Song Yi, the Shangshu of the Punishment Department, will self-examine the Punishment Department, assisted by Yushitai. If there is someone who is lawless and preys on the common people, we may protect him." This matter will never be tolerated!"

"According to the order!"

The Minister of Punishment and the Imperial Censor said at the same time.

After the morning court dispersed, hundreds of officials walked out of the palace with different expressions.

No one expected that there would be such a big shock in the morning today.

After King Duan fell into decline, King Kang became prosperous in the court, and the scene just now undoubtedly gave him a blow in the head.

Jingbian Marquis, Yanping Marquis and others are all his vassals. This time, if everyone's impeachment is implemented, even if King Kang is not involved, it will be an extremely heavy blow to him.

There is no doubt that this is another indirect contest between King Duan and King Kang, but King Duan, who has always been at a disadvantage, finally made a good move this time.

If the impeachment succeeds this time, the losses suffered by King Kang will be immeasurable, and the situation in the court may return to a balance of power between the two kings.

Censorship Desk.

Censor Zhongcheng looked at Censor Shen Zheng with shock on his face and asked: "Master Shen, why don't you discuss such a big matter with us?"

Just now in the court, led by Shi Yushi, everyone attacked King Kang and his family. Shen Zheng played a big role. Those who don't know may think that this is an attack by Yu Shitai on King Kang. .

The imperial censor came in and said, "I'm afraid that those who facilitated this behind the scenes did not discuss it with Master Shen."

Shen Zheng bowed to the censor and said, "I am stupid and have caused trouble to the censor."

"It's not too much trouble." The imperial censor doctor waved his hand and said: "If no one from the censor's platform comes forward, I'm afraid a crime of oversight will be inevitable in a few days, and your majesty will also be disappointed with the censor's platform. Don't you To stand up, others have to stand up as well.”

Censor Zhongcheng took a step forward and said, "But in this case, wouldn't we have offended King Kang severely?"

"It is the duty of the Censor to supervise the officials and dignitaries and report things that others dare not report. How can we offend him?" The Censor said with a calm expression: "It is not terrible to offend King Kang. If His Majesty feels that the Censor The most terrifying thing is that there is no difference between ordinary officials in Taiwan and North Korea."

He looked at Yushi Zhongcheng and said: "Don't rush to stand in line. You must know that the person above us is not King Duan or King Kang, but His Majesty..."

King Kang's Mansion.

"Yushitai, what do Yushitai want to do!" King Kang, who had just returned home, looked furious. Neither his advisers nor his servants dared to approach.

Someone hurriedly walked in from outside and said: "Your Highness, Marquis Jingbian and Marquis Yanping are waiting at the back door, asking to see Your Highness..."

"No!" King Kang waved his hand fiercely and said: "They have to clean up the trouble they caused. If they missed me, I can't spare them!"

A counselor stepped forward bravely and said: "Your Highness, I have to see you. Marquis Jingbian and Marquis Yanping are loyal to Your Highness no matter what. If Your Highness ignores them at this time, I am afraid you will lose your support. Besides, if something happens to them, we will lose a lot of help..."

King Kang turned around suddenly: "You mean to let me intervene?"

The man nodded and said: "With His Highness's current status, just walking around a little may not eliminate the matter, but it can reduce the impact..."

"Absolutely not!" Before he could finish his sentence, a middle-aged man stood up.

The middle-aged man looked at King Kang and solemnly said: "Your Highness, this matter is by no means an accident. Someone must be planning it behind the scenes. In my opinion, they must have other tricks. If Your Highness takes action personally, he will be trapped in the quagmire and never come back." I can’t escape intact.”

"Mr. Xu is right." King Kang thought carefully, nodded, and said: "It took a lot of effort for me to climb to where I am today. I must not put myself in danger... Come, tell Marquis Jingbian and Marquis Yanping." , they should solve the problems themselves!"

Advancing is risky, retreating is unpopular. Unexpectedly, he would find himself in a dilemma. A look of resentment appeared on King Kang's face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "The Tang family must be the Tang family!"

Tang family.

Tang Qi breathed a long sigh of relief and murmured: "The game has been set up. It depends on whether King Kang will return it or enter it. I hope he will enter, but according to King Kang's temperament, he will definitely choose to protect himself..."

Tang Huai picked up the tea cup and put it down again, and said: "Your Majesty knows whether he is retreating or advancing. What I am worried about is that if we set up a trap for King Kang, we are not slipping into someone else's trap. What is the purpose of the person who set up the trap?" What is..."

……

Tang Ning is preparing a medicine. According to the old beggar, after taking this medicine, people will enter a state of suspended animation. He has recently learned a lot of weird formulas. If he has the opportunity, he can discuss it with Xiao Jue.

"Today in the court, Marquis Yanping and the other ministers of the Ministry of Punishment were impeached. My father ordered the Ministry of Punishment and the Yushitai to conduct a strict investigation..." Zhao Man walked in from the outside and asked: "Does this matter have anything to do with you? "

Tangning looked back at her and said, "It's a small relationship..."

"Although you are smart, there are conspiracies everywhere in the court. As long as you make a mistake in calculation, you may lose everything..." Zhao Man looked at him and said: "You should be careful in the future and don't make mistakes in everything." Thinking about taking it to yourself."

"I understand. Thank you for reminding her, Princess." Tangning thanked her for her kind words. When she looked at her again, her expression was slightly startled and she asked, "What's wrong with Princess's hand?"

The index finger of her left hand was wrapped with a circle of white gauze, and there were obviously shallow scars on her hand. She didn't have to cook, didn't know how to embroider, and didn't do any rough work, so it looked strange to have a wound on her hand.

"It's nothing, I got hurt accidentally." Zhao Man retracted his hand into his sleeve and said, "I'm going back."

Tangning watched her walk out of the yard, shook her head, and turned back to prepare the medicine.

Ministry of Punishment.

The Minister of Punishment looked at the files piled up on the desk, rubbed his brows, and looked helpless.

The cases seized by Xu Cheng are piled up here, but it is not easy to investigate them one by one, because there are too many powerful people involved, and I am afraid that they will encounter unimaginable resistance.

Even though he is the Minister of Punishment, he still thinks this is a hot potato.

He opened a file, and a clerk knocked on the door and came in, saying: "Sir, Mr. Tang has returned to the office."
