Does your husband only love his wife?I turned around and left the house to marry a villain
Chapter 729: Reprimand
He Yuanzhou frowned and opened the account book in front of him.
This account book recorded the accounts of him secretly allowing officials to give him gold and silver gifts in order to hold a grand wedding banquet.
These accounts were made overnight by Gu Changning who kept an eye on the officials who had given money to He Yuanzhou.
When these officials were doing the accounts, they were so scared that they couldn't hold their pens steadily.
However, Gu Changning warned them that if they recorded even a cent less, their heads would be chopped off. So, there was the account book in front of He Yuanzhou.
"You accepted these gold and silver gifts before you married Li, right?" Gu Changning asked in a cold voice, "I still have many copies in my hand. Jiang Huai, send them to the ministers to read. Today, I will rectify the officialdom. I tell you, whoever secretly forms cliques, embezzles and accepts bribes will be beaten with a hundred sticks first. If the offense is minor, three clans will be executed. If the offense is serious, nine clans will be executed. If one person commits a crime, his surname will not exist in the world. I can't bear to see you officials using your power to collect the hard-earned money of the people. He Yuanzhou, you still don't admit your guilt!"
Gu Changning stood up, waved his sleeves, and threw out many memorials from officials accusing He Yuanzhou of accepting gifts.
And these memorials fell in front of He Yuanzhou with a "clatter".
He Yuanzhou's face turned pale as paper, and he forced out a few words in response: "How can these gifts be considered bribes?"
"Doesn't it count?" Gu Changning walked around the table and came to the table, with his hands behind his back, and then stared down at He Yuanzhou coldly: "Who would use a lunch box to put five thousand taels of silver notes as a gift? And who would put gold under the gift box as a gift? He Yuanzhou, do you think that the loophole you took advantage of does not violate the law? If there is no clear provision in the law, then in my opinion, this situation can be regarded as private bribery. You have committed a crime, He Yuanzhou."
The emperor's words completely blocked He Yuanzhou's way of survival.
At this time, each minister had a copy.
Among them, there were several ministers who had given gifts to He Yuanzhou.
After they received the copy of the account book, they were so scared that they fell to their knees and said to Gu Changning: "Please, please have mercy on me, Your Majesty..."
Gu Changning raised his hand and pointed at the people kneeling below: "Drag them away and give them a hundred lashes of the cane outside the Xuanming Hall."
"Yes." The imperial guards guarding both sides of the court quickly stepped forward and dragged He Yuanzhou and the officials who had accepted bribes privately out of the hall to be caned.
While they were being tortured, Gu Changning ordered that Xiao Zhi be appointed as the Supervisory Commissioner, in charge of the Supervisory Commission and the Xiao family army, and ordered that He Yuanzhou be beheaded in public at noon tomorrow.
Heaven Prison.
"Haha, hahaha..." Bursts of laughter came from the cell.
Xie Jinyun appeared outside the cell, staring at He Yuanzhou in the cell with cold eyes.
He was beaten with a hundred sticks, the only one among the officials who survived.
At this moment, he was lying on the straw mat, but he still had the energy to laugh.
Xie Jinyun took out the letter that He Yuanzhou wrote to Chen Qingtang and said, "He Yuanzhou, the letter you wrote is in my hand."
The laughter in the cell stopped immediately. He Yuanzhou suddenly looked up at Xie Jinyun, then used all his strength to crawl from the straw mat to the cell door and said, "My queen, can you let me see her again?"
"No." Xie Jinyun put the letter on the candlestick and lit it in front of him.
Seeing this, He Yuanzhou gritted his teeth and knelt in front of her: "Don't burn my letter, Madam, there is only one sentence in the letter, it won't damage her reputation."
"You also know that your letter will damage the reputation of an innocent woman, so why did you write to her again and again!" Xie Jinyun looked annoyed: "You used my second brother to get rid of Sun Qianqian. Do you think I don't know? Your intentions are not right, and you will end up hurting yourself."
"What about you, Madam?" He Yuanzhou held the cell door tightly and asked, "You betrayed your former husband and secretly had an affair with the emperor. How noble are you, Madam?"
As soon as He Yuanzhou said this, a figure rushed forward and kicked He Yuanzhou hard in the chest...
