Chapter 187 Charming
Zheng Ji dragged his long whip and raised his head slightly as he stepped into the Xuanzheng Hall.
According to the regulations of the country, only officials of fifth rank or above can participate in the morning dynasty. These officials have been immersed in the officialdom for many years and have their own official authority. When combined together, they form a terrifying momentum.
Coupled with the solemnity and majesty of Xuanzheng Hall, you can't help but feel awe when you are in it.
Officials who enter the Xuanzheng Hall for the first time are all very nervous, fearing that they will make mistakes. Even if they try their best to control it, there will be a trace of fear on their faces.
But Zheng Ji is not like that at all.
She looked calm and walked calmly, and even when facing so many important ministers, she was not timid at all.
Even after she stood still, she smiled at the many courtiers who were looking at her, feeling quite comfortable and proud as if "the breeze blows on the hills and the moon shines on the river".
Yes, the courtiers have official aura, but Princess Changding is even more arrogant.
It was pampered by the royal family, carefully raised by the richest man's family, and was honed and carved in the Wuge Main Pavilion.
Therefore, he has his own unique charm, coupled with his gorgeous face, just like that... Jade Rakshasa.
Not to mention, she has been reborn. Princess Changding, who held great power in her previous life, would feel constrained in the Xuanzheng Palace? Just kidding!
She involuntarily attracts everyone's attention, but makes people afraid to look directly at her.
Immediately, many courtiers looked away slightly, and couldn't help but marvel in their hearts again: So, His Highness Changding is actually like this?
Zheng Jihun didn't care about the scrutiny of the courtiers. He looked up at Emperor Yongning and reported loudly: "Father, I heard that Mr. Lin's confession about the Jiangnan Dao corruption case was actually his grandfather's instigation? Even the evidence is complete. Chapter
Sir, is that so?"
The last question was of course asked by Zhang Yansu, the imperial censor.
"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with that." Zhang Yansu replied with a serious look on his face.
Even though Her Highness Changding is the emperor's favorite princess, since he dares to impeach her, he is not afraid.
Moreover, the evidence is indeed true, and the officials from Yushitai have gone to check it.
"Master Zhang, are you referring to those Mingguang papers? Mingguang papers with the private seal of this palace?"
Zhang Yansu nodded, this is indeed one of the evidences.
Zheng Ji smiled and said: "Who doesn't know that Mingguang paper is reserved exclusively for this palace, and out of various selfish motives, it is deliberately kept every year. Why is it strange? This can also be used as evidence?"
Without waiting for Zhang Yansu's answer, she continued: "Besides, our private seal has been lent to others. As we all know, our palace has great trust in our companion Lin Jun and has lent her our private seal before. As for her taking this private seal
I don’t know what you did.”
This is not the first time Zhang Yansu has heard these remarks.
When Lin Heyun confessed, he said that he had confessed to himself in the Zichen Palace, but His Highness Changding denied it and also told about borrowing a private seal.
Zhang Yansu always has reservations about these matters and will not believe or listen to them one way or the other.
The main reason why he impeached the Jiang family was because of the evidence from Luji Bank, which shocked him.
Many years ago, Lin Heyun was not the minister of the Ministry of Industry. With the Lin family's background, it would never be possible for him to handle so much silver.
The person who instructed Lin Heyun to do these things must have extraordinary financial resources and power to make all of this watertight.
He had secretly investigated and found out that there were several officials who played an important role in the Jiangnan Road corruption case. They did not appear on the surface, but after dozens of detours, they all had connections with the Jiang family.
Since the Jiang family prides itself on never intervening in court affairs, why do these officials have traces of the Jiang family?
"Please explain all this to Your Highness," Zhang Yansu said in a deep voice.
His Highness came to Xuanzheng Palace today to defend himself, so he would listen to what His Highness said with his own ears.
Zheng Ji flicked his whip and said nothing for a while.
Many officials in the palace looked at him with suspicion: His Highness Chang Ding was acting too wantonly.
The Xuanzheng Hall is a place where government affairs are discussed. Although there is no explicit document not to bring whips into the hall, no one has done so over the years.
Not to mention, His Highness Changding still has such an arrogant attitude. Will he whip his whip at officials whenever he disagrees?
Although Her Highness Chang Ding seems to have grown a lot, she was once the most unruly princess in the palace!
Emperor Yongning, who was sitting high on the throne, was unhappy but did not show it.
Although he allowed Chang Ding to enter the palace to defend himself, the girl who appeared in the palace was completely different from what he expected.
Like other officials, he was also secretly thinking: When did Changding become so unfamiliar?
Her unique dress, sharp eyes, and the whip in her hand all repeatedly crossed Emperor Yongning's bottom line.
However, in front of so many courtiers, he had announced that she would enter the palace to defend herself, so it was hard to say anything now.
Zheng Ji swung his whip leisurely and said slowly: "What a coincidence, this palace also has some evidence of Lu Ji Bank, Sir Zhang, please take a look at it too?"
After that, she raised her voice and said: "Come in."
Li Xing'en, who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time, bowed his head and walked in respectfully holding a volume of files.
It was also the first time for him to enter Xuanzheng Hall.
As the manager of Mingguang Palace, he has seen the world, but being stared at by so many ministers, to be honest -
He felt nervous, very nervous!
But he has an extraordinary skill as a chamberlain, and that is pretending!
Even though he was trembling with nervousness, it was not obvious. The most important thing was that after he handed the file to Zheng Ji, he immediately withdrew.
The eyes of the court officials naturally followed the files and turned to Zheng Ji.
"Master Zhang, let's take a look." Zheng Ji handed the file to Zhang Yansu, but the whip in his hand stopped.
Zhang Yansu raised his head and looked at Emperor Yongning, then reached out to take the file and opened it on the spot.
At this sight, his expression changed slightly.
Now, all the court officials became even more curious: What is the evidence of His Highness Chang Ding?
Fortunately, His Highness Chang Ding immediately clarified their doubts: "Master Zhang, the Jiang family has never interfered in the affairs of the court. Naturally, those officials in Jiangnan Dao were not related to the Jiang family. This was because someone was deliberately covering it up.
, who sent the disguised relationship to Yushitai. These officials have nothing to do with the Jiang family from the beginning to the end."
"As for who they are related to, Lord Zhang must have seen it very clearly. Some of them followed the path of the prince, some were recommended by General Tao, and some were favored by the emperor himself..."
She smiled and looked around at the court officials with an incomprehensible expression: "Could it be that you all want to say that my father, the crown prince brother, and the virtuous concubine are all related to the corruption case in Jiangnan Road?"
"Your Majesty is aware of this! I have absolutely no intention of doing so!" the officials in the court hurriedly asked, feeling miserable inside.
