"Oh? There is such a serious thing. Tell me quickly, what is it?" Zhu Chufeng asked hurriedly.
"Reporting to the Emperor, just a few days ago, a member of the Qilin Guard family wandered into the casino and joined a group of gamblers. During this period, he was squandering and gambling bloodthirsty. In the end, he lost all his money and owed thousands Two silver coins, the last thing I heard was that Duke Zhao personally asked someone to take the money to redeem it!" Huang Ning shouted loudly!
"..." After hearing this, everyone in the hall started talking, shaking their heads with disdain on their faces!
When Zhao Mingqing heard this, his face turned very ugly, Qilin Guard? Isn't that his son's army? How could it get into trouble in the court?
After Zhu Chufeng heard this, several black lines appeared on his face. He never expected that such a thing could happen in Qilin Guards?
Huang Ning looked at everyone and felt very proud. He thought to himself, Zhao Xuanyi, didn't you join forces with the Seventh Prince to force my son to death? I'll give you something to watch today!
"And just yesterday, another Qilin Guard Qianhu stayed in Huajie and Liuxiang. He ignored his military duties and national laws. He got drunk in a brothel and finally wanted to redeem himself for a brothel prostitute. With a wave of his hand, he paid 100,000 yuan. silver!"
"Wow...!" The hall was instantly in chaos!
"What did you say? One hundred thousand taels of silver?" Zhu Chufeng asked in surprise.
"Yes, Your Majesty, you heard it right, one hundred thousand taels of silver. Not to mention that several provinces in our Ming Dynasty have just experienced a natural disaster that only occurs once in a century. How many lives can these one hundred thousand taels save! A thousand households actually need to spend ten Want to buy a woman for ten thousand taels? How much is his annual salary? You can't afford it after working for a lifetime, right?" Huang Ning said with embarrassment.
When Zhu Chufeng heard this, his face instantly darkened and he said nothing!
Huang Ning hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "Your Majesty, since Zhao Guogong was promoted, his management of his subordinates has been lax, which has made many soldiers lawless. Prostitution and gambling have become the norm. If this continues, I am afraid that the army will be regarded as a bunch of lustful people in the hearts of the people. Disciple, a gambler!"
"How will this kind of army fight against foreigners and protect our country in the future? Are all the elites of our Ming Dynasty like this? I request the emperor to remove Zhao Xuanyi from his status as a public servant, deprive him of his position as a great scholar in the palace, and let others A capable person should be placed there. Don't favor him just because he has done a good job in rescuing the enemy, and finally give him an official position that he cannot handle, so that he is young and energetic, spends extravagantly, indulges his subordinates, and disrupts the court!"
At this time, another official came out of the civil and military officials: "I agree, this Zhao Xuanyi is still young, and the emperor loves him so much that he has given him such a noble status, so that he is young and has heavy responsibilities and does not understand management. Please think twice, your emperor!"
"I second the proposal... I second the proposal...!" Thirteen civil and military ministers all came forward with the same goal in mind!
Zhu Chufeng's face was very ugly for a moment, and his eyes were full of anger. He didn't care about Zhao Xuanyi, but Zhao Xuanyi could become the Duke, but he did it with one hand. Now he is being impeached by so many officials. This is not a fight. His own face?
"Prime Minister Huang, is there any evidence for what you said?" Zhu Chufeng asked coldly.
"Wei Chen naturally has evidence, and it is estimated that people are blocking the door outside the Duke's Palace asking for money? If the emperor doesn't believe it, just send someone to check it out!" Huang Ning said with conclusive evidence on his face.
"Someone is coming!"
"exist!"
"Go to the Duke's Mansion immediately and ask Zhao Xuanyi what is going on?" Zhu Chufeng shouted angrily!
"Yes!" A messenger hurriedly sent out to the main hall!
And Zhu Zhelin's face showed an imperceptible smile!
Outside the Duke's Palace, there were more than a dozen strong men standing. They were all stopped by the Qilin Guards, but they kept shouting, "Let your prince come out. Where is Tang Tianli? He has already signed and signed, saying I can use one hundred thousand taels of silver to redeem Miss Muying, why don’t you give me the money?”
"That's right! Just because you are a servant of the Protector, can you bully others at will? Where is Tang Tianli? Come out and give us an explanation. We have brought the girls. Get the money quickly!" After the man finished speaking, he handed over a body The girl in the green gauze skirt pushed to the front of the crowd and shouted loudly into the crowd. Others kept shouting too!
There was so much excitement in front of the Duke's Palace early in the morning, attracting hundreds of people to watch outside. Some people who didn't know what was going on asked directly, "What's going on?"
"Oh, you don't know yet? Ever since Zhao Xuanyi became the Protector of the Country, all of his men have been doing great things! They gamble and prostitute outside! Isn't this right? I heard that they didn't pay after the prostitution. Don’t let people come to your door!”
"Hey... is it true or not? I didn't expect it! Isn't this Qilin Guard an elite with strict discipline and great knowledge? How could it become like this?"
"Hey, when you become an official and you have a lot of bad money, you start squandering it. I have no money. If I have money, I will go to a brothel. But this time it is a big deal. Look, you can open your mouth and get a hundred thousand taels!" "
"One hundred thousand taels? Where do you get so much money? Even if you are a Duke, your annual salary is only thirty taels, right?"
"What do you mean by this, three-faced magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver? Just look at it, it's interesting!" A group of people who didn't know what they were talking about kept talking outside, saying everything!
Tang Tianli followed Shen Wei, Sun Yan and others out, "What are you shouting for? Are you causing trouble in front of the Duke Protector's Mansion and are you risking your life?"
"Tang Tianli, don't talk nonsense. The contract you signed in black and white is to redeem Mu Ying's life for one hundred thousand taels. Now that the girl has returned it to you, please get me the money quickly!" A man pulled his neck like a master of accounts. call!
After Tang Tianli heard this, his expression changed instantly, "You are talking nonsense, how can there be any contract?"
Shen Wei also shouted, "How do you prove that you have a contract?" It was obviously torn off by Tang Rou yesterday!
"What do you think this is?" The man held up a contract. Shen Wei and Tang Tianli looked at it and were instantly stunned. They saw Tang Tianli's name clearly written on it, and his red handprint on the side!
Shen Wei frowned and turned to look at Tang Tianli, "What's going on?"
"Me?" Tang Tianli thought carefully and suddenly remembered something, "Brother Shen, it seems that what I signed that night was not one!"
"What?" Shen Wei was so frightened that his heart stopped beating!
But Zhao Xuanyi didn't know anything at this time and was just lying in bed and sleeping in! A sound of banging on the door woke up Zhao Xuanyi. Zhao Xuanyi and Du Xinyu woke up together. "Who is it!" Du Xinyu shouted upset!
"Third Madam, Duke, get up quickly. Something happened. People have blocked the gate. Something big happened!" Xiao Xing shouted!
Zhao Xuanyi and Du Xinyu looked at each other and hurriedly got up and put on their clothes. When Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the room, Xiao Xing looked anxious and almost cried!
"Don't worry, what's going on?" Zhao Xuanyi asked while buttoning up.
"A group of people rushed at the door early in the morning, and they also brought a girl. They said that Tang Tianli bought it, and now they have sent the girl here for one hundred thousand taels of silver!" Xiao Xing said!
"What?" Zhao Xuanyi asked in surprise, and then looked at Du Xinyu, who also looked confused. "That's not right! Yesterday I watched Sister Tang tear up the contract with my own eyes!"
Zhao Xuan frowned righteously, "This Tang Tianli, why the hell can't you just let me calm down! Go and see, the other party is probably playing another trick!"
After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard. As soon as he walked out of the cross-yard, he saw Tang Rou coming out next door, "Husband!"
Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly walked over, "What are you doing out here? Don't you still have a husband? Go back and rest, I won't spare you if you tire my child!"
Tang Rou smiled, "I'm just surprised. I clearly tore up the contract, so how come they still dare to make trouble?"
"I'm going to take a look, so don't wander around. You two, help Sister Tang go back to rest!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Hakeem and Hakney and said!
"Yes!" The two girls helped Tang Rou back to the yard!
Zhao Xuanyi rushed to the front yard. As soon as he arrived at the atrium, he saw Shen Wei running back with an anxious look on his face. When he saw Zhao Xuanyi, he grabbed Zhao Xuanyi's arm and said, "Young Master, something big has happened!"
"What's going on? Didn't Sister Tang finish everything yesterday? Why are there still people making trouble?" Zhao Xuanyi said steadily.
"Yesterday, I saw with my own eyes that Miss Tang tore up the contract, but they took out another contract! And Tang Tianli said that he seemed to...sign more than one contract!" Shen Wei said with a look of despair.
"F*ck!" Zhao Xuanyi cursed angrily, "This bastard, he actually...what the hell?" Zhao Xuanyi swung around in circles and kept chopping the ground with his feet!
At this time, outside the door of the Duke's Palace, a small group of soldiers named "Shooting Through Golden Armor" came to the street. Before they reached the door, they saw that the crowd was 30% inside and 30% outside, and the shouting and cursing in the middle was simply unbearable! The soldier looked at the Duke's Palace plaque on the door and shook his head with disappointment! Then he turned around and left!
In Mingyue Palace, Nan Zhu ran all the way to the hall. After seeing Zhu Yuejun, he hurriedly shouted, "Princess, something happened to Zhao Xuanyi!"
Zhu Yuejun slowly raised his head, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Just now in the main hall, Huang Ning and thirteen other ministers launched an impeachment against Zhao Xuanyi!" Nan Zhu said.
"What? Impeachment? What did Zhao Xuanyi do wrong? Do they dare to impeach the Lord Protector?"
"This... if we say it, Zhao Xuanyi did nothing wrong, but his men, Tang Tianli and Sun Yan, Sun Yan went to the casino and lost one thousand three hundred and twenty taels, while Tang Tianli got drunk in a brothel and signed a contract for a prostitute The price of the ransom deed is one hundred thousand taels! And now a group of people and prostitutes are coming to collect debts from the Duke's Palace!"
"Bastard!" Zhu Yuejun kicked the desk over with one kick! Scared to the point that all the maids knelt down, Zhu Yuejun briefly went through it in his mind and guessed, "None of the things were directly related to Zhao Xuanyi, but they actually united with thirteen people to impeach Zhao Xuanyi? The meaning is obvious. !”
Nanzhu also guessed, "Princess, what should we do about this matter?"
"Don't act rashly, otherwise you will definitely be caught by someone with intentions. When the time comes, and with the support of my eldest princess, Zhao Xuanyi will really have no room to stand up! In this case, you go to the Duke's Mansion and tell Zhao Xuanyi, If you are not sure, you must not show up, otherwise the other party will take advantage of you!" Zhu Yuejun said hurriedly.
"Yes!" Nanzhu hurriedly turned around and ran out!
Zhu Yuejun sat on the chair, his eyes emitted bursts of cold light, who is it? Who wants to frame Zhao Xuanyi? In fact, it is not difficult to guess that Zhao Xuanyi blocked the way of those people after all. How could they let Zhao Xuanyi go so easily? But now is not the time to think about this!
Zhu Chufeng must be very angry now. With so many ministers jointly impeaching him, and these things being true, Zhao Xuanyi may not be able to hold his position as Duke!
To find a way, Zhao Xuanyi finally climbed to this position and fought for this title with his life. He couldn't just be kicked off the altar by them. If he was impeached and wanted to return to this position, he would have to pay for it with his life!
"Xilan!"
"The maid is here!"
"Immediately investigate for me. Who are the fourteen people who impeached Zhao Xuanyi in the morning meeting today? Give me their names!" Zhu Yuejun's eyes were full of murderous intent, and even his mouth was filled with coldness when he spoke!
"Yes!" Xilan immediately turned around and walked out of the hall!
At the Duke's Mansion, the door has been closed, and all the Qilin Guards have withdrawn, turning a deaf ear to the clamor outside. In the hall, Zhao Xuanyi sat on a chair with an angry look on his face. All four ladies were present, and Shen Wei and Jinglan were still there. Su Minghua stood aside, while Tang Tianli and Sun Yan were kneeling on the ground!
"Tang Tianli, Tang Tianli, you are my biological father! You leave evidence when you get into trouble. You are really capable! My wife tried her best to bring you back, but in the end, you signed more than one contract. Why do you think your handwriting is beautiful?" Zhao Xuanyi yelled angrily!
Tang Tianli looked at a loss. The seven-foot tall man was forced to kneel on the ground without saying a word and let Zhao Xuanyi insult him!
Tang Rou said, "Husband, please don't be angry now, something doesn't feel right about this!"
"Of course something is wrong! A group of turtle slaves from the brothel came to the gate of the Duke's Palace to cause trouble? If no one instructed them, they wouldn't dare even if they had 800 courage! There must be someone behind this!" Zhao Xuanyi also guessed, I just don’t know who it is!
Having said that, it is useless even if I know who it is now, the people at the door are still cursing!
Lychee thought for a while, "They just want money, won't they leave if we give it to them? It's not like I don't have any!"
Zi Yuan glared at Lychee and said, "Shut up. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll chop off your tongue!"
Litchi was scolded by Zi Yuan, with a look of grievance on her face. Tang Rou beside her said, "This money must not be given. One hundred thousand taels of silver may be nothing to our family, but once this money is given, it will prove that Qilin Wei went to a brothel to visit prostitutes and was squandering money. If this accusation is spread, it will not be so simple. Maybe our master will be implicated too! No... maybe he is already implicated!" Tang Rou said with a look of shock. Looking at Zhao Xuanyi, he seemed to have guessed something!
"..." Everyone!
