Chapter 1084: Luoyang trip
Xu Jingzong felt that what the emperor said had a little other meaning, and that was just such a little other meaning that made him feel a little nervous and very panicked.
"Your Majesty plans to severely punish the Zheng family?" Xu Jingzong said carefully.
"What do you think of Xu Jing's beloved?" Li Chengqian asked.
"Your Majesty, the Zheng family has reached out to the money house, short the accounts and lose the national treasury. It is their duty to punish them." Xu Jingzong said: "But I am worried that the series of reactions caused by Your Majesty's move to the Zheng family."
"What's the reaction? Tell me," Li Chengqian picked up the teacup on the desk.
"The reaction of other aristocratic families." Xu Jingzong said.
"If the reactions of other aristocratic families are clear and did not do anything that harms the interests of the court, what will they react? If they have a reaction, it means that there is a ghost in their hearts. Why? Could it be that I will indulge them like this?" Li Chengqian said.
"That's not true." Xu Jingzong responded: "The world belongs to His Majesty. If His Majesty gives them, they can only take it. If His Majesty doesn't give them, they can't rob it. The reason is that, but if they move, they take it. If the rectification is too powerful at once, it will be bad for the court. Lord Yu Zhining's words also make some sense. Your Majesty has just succeeded to the throne for less than half a year. If such a big noise is made in such a short time, it may shake the court."
"I know that the teacher's words make sense, but if I leave this matter alone, the treasury will not know how much it will lose. Xu Jingzong, from now on, you will immediately go to Luoyang." Li Chengqian said: "Look at Luoyang for me. The Zheng family in Luoyang cannot escape the blame, but I am afraid that Luoyang will not be stable. Therefore, before Luoyang is stable, before I summon you back, I will wait for my will in Luoyang. Apart from Luoyang, there may be something else that I want to use."
"Yes, I will receive the order." Xu Jingzong bowed his hand and replied.
Xu Jingzong was a little unhappy about the errand given to him by the emperor, so he went to Luoyang at this critical moment. This was a thankless thing to do. He was in charge of Luoyang for the emperor, but he had to attract more hatred from the Zheng family. What a great hatred. Wouldn't the Zheng family look at themselves?
I'm afraid that His Majesty asked him to go to Luoyang for another purpose... Xu Jingzong was thinking about where he himself was.
After leaving Xuanzheng Hall in a daze, Xu Jingzong seemed to have not come back to his senses. He was a little confused about the emperor's intention.
Although he didn't understand, he knew that this trip was not a good job. If he did it well, he would offend the Zheng family. If he didn't do it well, he would offend all five surnames and seven sects.
Could it be that Your Majesty did it on purpose and did not want to get too close to the families of the five surnames and seven sects? If this is the case, either you will be in trouble or you will be prosperous.
As for the money house, which of the five surnames, seven sects and seven major families is clean? None of them is clean. If Your Majesty wants to investigate, he will definitely be able to pull out a bunch of them with just one involvement, and no one can escape. In this way, how much shock will be caused in the court.
Xu Jingzong felt that although this trip seemed dangerous, it also contained opportunities. If he could return to Chang'an City safely, he would definitely be developed in the future.
After the New Year, it will no longer be the Zhenguan Dynasty.
Once the emperor and the ministers are in the same day, it is time for officials like them to emerge. As for those old ministers, old people, old people, and deaths, some of them are suspicious of their Majesty. How long can they stay in this court? The future career will be broad, it depends on whether they dare to venture out.
If you don’t move forward at this time, do you still have to wait for the opportunity to come to you?
Xu Jingzong obeyed Li Chengqian's words, and after returning home, he immediately packed up his things. The next morning, he took a carriage toward Luoyang City, and he didn't even plan to spend his time at home. After arriving at Luoyang City, he would not be able to come back without the emperor's will.
Xu Jingzong's identity in Luoyang is equivalent to an imperial envoy. After all, it was sent by the emperor himself. Moreover, the position of the county magistrate in Luoyang City is still vacant. When it comes to Luoyang, Xu Jingzong still needs to be involved in Luoyang City for a while. After the new county magistrate arrives in Luoyang, Xu Jingzong can be a safe imperial envoy.
As for Xuan Shijing, after Xu Jingzong arrived in Luoyang, Xuan Shijing and Jinyang must have left Luoyang long ago. Xu Jingzong would not have seen Xuan Shijing. Moreover, Xu Jingzong, who had just left Chang'an City, did not know that Xuan Shijing and Princess Jinyang were in Luoyang. It is estimated that they would not hear the news until they arrived in Luoyang and settled in Luoyang.
By that time, Xu Jingzong would know what kind of chess game His Majesty the Emperor and Duke Xuan Shijing of Qi were playing.
洛阳城这边,玄世璟在县衙之中等了三天,果真洛阳城里有不少百姓前来报案,诉说着郑家的种种,以往郑家还是洛阳城的高门大户的时候,与洛阳城县令沆瀣一气,狼狈为奸,洛阳城的百姓敢怒不敢言,但是眼前,郑家被朝廷的官兵给围了,一大家子的人全都给抓起来了,郑钧和洛阳县令被丢进了牢房之中,他们还有什么不敢说的,若是过了这个机会,就再也找不到别的机会了.
The paper Xuan Shijing received in the county government these two days was like snowflakes outside. After seeing it, his intention to kill Zheng Jun and Luoyang County Magistrate became a little more serious.
On the third day, Zheng Jun and Luoyang County Magistrate were taken to the court again.
"I have seen a lot of things in the past two days." Xuan Shijing looked at the two people with a calm expression: "When people are higher, ordinary people cannot reach them. They feel that they cannot reach you, but what about you? Standing high and looking far, you can see everything below. But now it is different. You have fallen down and stand on the same horizon as them, or are more humble than the situation they have emerged. Therefore, those who were originally oppressed by you can get you and be able to get things, and things will come out."
When Xuan Shijing said this, he signaled Chang Le. Chang Le held a thick stack of paper from the side and placed it on the desk in front of Xuan Shijing.
"These are papers of Luoyang people." Xuan Shijing said: "Look up and take a look at how many are there."
Zheng Jun and Luoyang County Magistrate, who were kneeling in the hall, looked up at the paper on the desk. The amount of paper was shocking.
At this time, Xuan Shijing stood up from the chair and took out the edict Li Chengqian gave him from his arms.
"According to the emperor's order, we will thoroughly investigate the deficit of the Luoyang Money House. Now all the certified physical evidence is complete, and the verdict will be announced!"
