Bao Xing never imagined that Emperor Liang's opening would be a fatal blow.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"The unruly people were causing trouble outside Dali Temple just now. It was because the ministers failed to suppress it in time, and this has tarnished His Majesty's holy hearing!"
"Tricky people? Making trouble?"
When Emperor Liang asked in reply, in addition to anger, there was also a bit of surprise.
He couldn't believe that the majestic head of Dali Temple would actually talk nonsense in front of him!
absurd!
It's too ridiculous!
Bao Xing put his head on the ground and rolled his eyes, guessing that Emperor Liang might have seen everything that happened.
So he quickly changed his tone and explained: "Yes..."
"It's Zhou Jue who is fanning the flames and misleading these ignorant people!"
"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have brought Zhou Jue to justice, and I will definitely give an explanation to these deceived people!"
If Bao Xing's initial remarks only made Emperor Liang a little shocked.
So what Bao Xing said at this moment made Emperor Liang a little unbelievable.
"Following the fire?"
"Tell me, what kind of wind did Zhou Jue fan, what kind of fire did he light?"
Bao Xing hesitated for a moment and hurriedly explained: "As an official of Dali Temple, Zhou Jue deliberately framed and arrested an innocent man into Dali Temple!"
"And he wanted to abuse him by lynching him, with the intention of getting rid of him quickly!"
"Fortunately, Wei Chen came over overnight and stopped all this from happening..."
Bao Xing knelt in front of the carriage and talked endlessly, while Emperor Liang's expression on the carriage was extremely ugly.
He never dreamed that in just a few words, the words in Bao Xing's mouth would go around and change several times!
And the most important thing is that he said so much, but not a single word of it was true!
Finally, Emperor Liang became angry.
When the emperor is angry, heaven and earth tremble!
"Shut up!"
"Bao Xing, do you think I'm a fool who doesn't hear what's going on outside the window?"
"Do you really think I will listen to all your confusing and indiscriminate remarks?"
"You officials are colluding together, confusing right and wrong, and doing whatever you want. Do you really think that I don't know anything about it?"
Bao Xing originally thought that his words were perfect and Emperor Liang would definitely believe them.
Unexpectedly, it actually aroused the emperor's anger!
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Weichen has absolutely no intention of doing this!"
Bao Xing kowtowed as if pounding garlic. Soon, the land in front of him was stained red.
But facing the trembling Bao Xing, Emperor Liang had no intention of forgiving.
He just raised his head to look at Song Huan and ordered: "Fourth, go to the Zheng Mansion in person and have the Zheng family and his son immediately detained in the Criminal Department, waiting for their release!"
"Also, bring me the official Sun Wanli!"
"yes!"
Song Huan stood up straight and bowed slightly to Emperor Liang.
Looking up at the branches swaying in the wind, I am afraid that Bianjing is about to change.
…
People always say that Bianjing's wealth is charming.
As the capital of Daliang, Bianjing is one of the most prosperous and prosperous capitals in the entire Daliang.
Merchants are everywhere here and talents gather here.
An ordinary commoner who can be seen everywhere on the street may be a wealthy business tycoon.
Of course, if you mention the most powerful and wealthy owner in Bianjing City, three people will pop up in most people's minds.
The first, without a doubt, is Shangguan Yi, one of the three founding princes of the country, who had countless guests.
Just how arrogant and arrogant is Grand Master Shangguan Yi's mansion?
In order to show its prominent status, the Shangguan Mansion was specifically located in the most prosperous southern area of the city.
In order to ensure sufficient purity and safety, Shangguan Yi even waved his hand and built an entire street in the south of the city, where the land was so valuable, all for the use of the Taishi Mansion.
You think, with such a big deal, can he be regarded as the most distinguished person in the entire capital?
In addition to the Grand Master, the second ranked one must be Liu Delin, the Minister of Household Affairs.
As the minister in charge of finance in Daliang, Liu Delin had been in the officialdom for decades and had already made a lot of money.
The assets he owns are even more impressive than those of wealthy businessmen.
However, after the previous reshuffle in the Ministry of Household Affairs, Liu Delin had taken the initiative to confiscate all his property in order to retain his position.
Now he is no different from an ordinary simple official.
As for the third-ranked person, it is undoubtedly the current Kaifeng governor and the second son-in-law of the Grand Master, Zheng Chaodong.
As the top chief executive of Kaifeng Prefecture and Bianjing City, Zheng Chaodong has great power, and his ability to amass money is not an issue.
Although he is not as good as the top first-class officials, his special status and relationship have invisibly improved his social status a lot.
Zheng Chaodong sometimes drank too much and even considered himself the brother-in-law of the current emperor, which shows his inner expansion.
It's just that most of the guests present laughed it off and clung on even harder, and no one cared too much about it.
This day was just like any other day.
Inside the Zheng Mansion, there is a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
Early in the morning, countless officials and merchants came to visit Zheng Chaodong.
Looking at the expectant guests at the door, the butler smiled, as if he was used to such scenes.
"Everyone, please be patient!"
"My family is very concerned about government affairs. After coming back from the morning court, I have been doing business in the study."
"If you have anything else important, please come back another day..."
After hearing the butler's words, the guests in front of the door said anxiously: "No need to worry, no need to worry!"
"We came here specifically to visit Mr. Zheng today. There is nothing important!"
"Master Zheng, please give priority to government affairs first!"
"Tsk, tsk, Master Zheng, as the food and clothing official of our Bianjing, really puts all his efforts into ensuring that he has enough food and clothing at night!"
"Master Zheng, a role model for us!..."
The housekeeper had a faint smile on his face, bowed slightly, and turned to leave.
After all, the housekeeper has seen too many scenes like this every day.
Aren't these people sharpening their heads just to gain Master Zheng's favor and recommendation?
With these idiots who only know how to flatter people, if you wait another ten thousand years, Lord Zheng may not bother to even look at them!
Thinking of this, the housekeeper couldn't help showing a touch of contempt.
However, before the housekeeper could leave, he heard a strange noise coming from the crowd.
"The fourth prince has arrived——"
The fourth prince?
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, then laughed in realization.
It must be that after the incident last night, the young master returned safe and sound, which made the fourth prince lose face!
That's why he came here specifically to argue with Mr. Zheng, right?
A dignified prince could not do anything to his own lord.
Thinking of this, the smile on the butler's face couldn't help but become brighter.
"Meet His Highness the Fourth Prince!"
"I'm sorry, my master is currently handling government affairs in the study, and must present them to His Majesty as soon as possible."
"I'm sorry that I can't receive you for the time being!"
