For a moment, the court seemed to be coated with a thick layer of suffocating mist. The ministers' breath was suffocated. Some looked at Zhou Tianfu with difficulty, while some raised their eyes slightly to look at the emperor.
Chu Yanwu's face also darkened. It was more like this layer of suffocating thick fog came from his rolling dragon power. A subtle warning overflowed with the dragon power, "Zhang Qing, you say what?"
Zhou Tianfu's eyes were covered with a layer of dim black, and a pair of dangerous eyes like a goshawk narrowed, releasing a silent pressure.
Zhang Dongyang completely ignored the warnings of the two biggest figures in the court. He raised the wat board firmly, as if lifting the clarity in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I want to impeach the former Minister of Household Affairs, Chen Yunqi!"
After the words fell, there was a sound of air-conditioning sucking in the hall. The ministers looked at each other, all with a sense of fear and worry that a storm was coming.
Zhou Tianfu's face completely darkened. When he turned around, Zaifu's aura suddenly emerged. His tightly narrowed eyes were more like a sharp knife. Suddenly, he laughed coldly and deeply, "Mr. Zhang , you have been tired from taking over recently, are you a little incoherent?"
"I heard that Chen Yunqi has been taking care of you with all his heart. Wouldn't it be ugly if you went to court because of a private quarrel?"
The Chu Yan Martial Dragon is majestic, and under the thick white jade crown, there is already a layer of emperor's murderous intention.
Zhou Tianfu quietly raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yanwu's expression. The eyes of the monarch and his ministers met briefly at this moment, and suddenly they were separated again.
A subtle atmosphere enveloped the court.
Chu Yanwu spoke slowly and said with deep meaning again: "Zhang Qing, what the Prime Minister said is true. Officials should have a big picture."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhou Tianfu first bowed his hand, loyal, grateful, and loyal, "Your Majesty is wise!"
"Zhang Shangshu, today you made a big fuss in the court, and His Majesty is no longer merciful. Why don't you express your gratitude quickly?"
Between himself, the prime minister, and Chu Yanwu, the emperor, they had always turned a blind eye to each other. If this kind of thing happened in the past, Chu Yanwu would never interfere.
But if Zhang Dongyang insists on exposing the matter in front of everyone today, then even if Chu Yanwu doesn't want to upset this balance, he has to take care of it!
Zhou Tianfu gave a slight wink to the subordinate officer, who immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, regarding the water control in Hezhou, I have a plan to report back!"
After Mianqi, Chu Yanwu also breathed a sigh of relief before he was about to speak and agree.
However, Zhang Dongyang took another step forward, directly blocked the subordinate officer, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, Chen Yunqi is corrupt, please investigate thoroughly!"
"Here is all the evidence that Chen Yunqi, the Minister of Hubu, who was given by Wei Chen, led everyone in the Hubu to use the official positions given by the imperial court to enrich his own pockets!"
Zhang Dongyang held the evidence of crime high above his head, like a blunt and heavy dagger in front of Chu Yanwu, forcing him to do something!
On the dragon chair, the corner of Chu Yanwu's mouth twitched slightly, and at the same time, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Zhang Dongyang, do you mean that the entire household department is greedy for ink?"
Zhou Tianfu's body trembled slightly, and he immediately looked at the emperor through the wat board. Immediately, his heart seemed to be hit hard by a misfortune.
Before this, Chu Yanwu didn’t know?
Could it be that Xiao Chen didn't report the corruption incident to Chu Yanwu?
"Yes, the entire household department is greedy!"
Zhang Dongyang's voice was firm and every word was bound to shock the court.
However, Chu Yanwu looked at the courtiers in the court through Mianqi, and found that nearly half of them had a clear silence on their faces.
A sense of shame of being deceived and deceived swept over the emperor on the high platform, and his eyes became increasingly cold to the extreme.
Under the broad and solemn dragon robe, Chu Yanwu's fingers trembled slightly, and the dragon's lips were slightly opened, still looking calm and majestic as the emperor said, "Zhang Qing, it turns out that you are begging me to investigate this matter. .”
Zhang Dongyang shivered and realized that the emperor's words had a deeper meaning.
If he admitted it, it would be equivalent to confessing Xiao Chen.
But when he thought about it, Xiao Chen couldn't take it out now, so he simply said with firm eyes, "Yes, Your Majesty! When Wei Chen took over the household department, he discovered that there was a big problem, so he checked it carefully."
"Your Majesty, please order that all officials involved in the case be imprisoned and interrogated strictly."
Zhang Dongyang knelt and took a few steps forward, handing all the incriminating evidence to Chen Jin with both hands.
General Chu Yan looked at the evidence of the crime carefully, his face became darker and darker, and a gloominess that was about to overturn enveloped the hall.
Zhou Tianfu lowered his head. Immediately, there was a look of determination in his eyes, and he immediately knelt down, "When Chen Yunqi became the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he was recommended by Wei Chen. If he is really greedy, Wei Chen will be the first one not to let him go! "
Chu Yanwu threw all the evidence of guilt in front of Zhou Tianfu, and his deep voice was full of awe-inspiring dragon power, "Prime Minister, take a look, this is the good official you brought out!"
"Now that the evidence is conclusive, are you putting me on the fire?"
"I don't dare!" Zhou Tianfu kowtowed hurriedly, with an unnoticed unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
There is also ruthless hatred.
Xiao Chen, a little thief, actually included him and Zhang Dongyang in the game!
His dignified prime minister was actually tricked by a dead eunuch!
There was a dangerous look in Chu Yanwu's eyes. At this moment, he only had the majesty and coldness of an emperor, "Come here, send an order to Dongchang, and tell Xiao Chen to go to the Ministry of Households to get the person immediately!"
"Everyone on the list cannot be missing!"
"Give me a severe torture!"
"yes!"
Chen Jin responded and immediately arranged for someone to deliver the message.
Zhang Dongyang breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed deeply, and his loyal soul choked with sobs, "Your Majesty is wise!"
"To have this enlightened master, the world will be blessed!"
However, the emperor just stared at him gloomily for a long time through Mianqi, and said in a deep voice, "Next, you will reorganize the household department."
"Remember, I will never allow this kind of chaos to happen in the future household department."
"Yes! Don't worry, Your Majesty! I will do my best!" Zhang Dongyang kowtowed heavily.
The emperor nodded, glanced at Zhou Tianfu with a complicated expression, and went down to court without saying anything else.
Zhang Dongyang won the first battle, but his steps were not so brisk.
This time, by cooperating with Xiao Chen, he succeeded in getting himself out of the muddy water in Hubu, but in the days to come, how would he get to the huge muddy pool in the capital?
Suddenly, a sneer came from behind, and Zhou Tianfu walked over with square steps, "Master Zhang, why are you sighing? This is not like your majestic demeanor in the court."
"Why, Master Zhang feels that he regrets it?"
Zhou Tianfu came slightly closer, but still maintained the indifference and majesty of the former prime minister, as if staring at an ant, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Master Zhang, cherish these days from now on."
"After all, both you and Xiao Chen will pay the price."
