Chapter 393
[I consciously put my heart into this plot, those who made five seconds... To be honest, Lao Ao's firm harem party was a little shaken. Maybe he should have tried his best to minimize the harem plot, otherwise all the effortless craftsmanship would seem to have become useless waste garbage.]
Among the three people's examinations, Chen Wansan and Li Qing were basically the same. They only described Li Qing's attitude after sobering up, and Li Qing insisted that he was not cowardly.
As for the steel factory to recommend Zhu Tao...
At first, he demanded severe punishment for Chen and Li, and accused that he was tied up by these two villains halfway and did not know anything about it.
Later, when he saw Chen and Li said everything he shouldn't say, he changed his face in court and insisted that he was ready to expose this matter. First, he was not ashamed of Zhou Long's use of all kinds of despicable means to fight against the common people of the party; second, he was grateful to the emperor for his hard work and his wisdom to eat and clothing, and finally created a prosperous scene of all industries. How could he tolerate it being destroyed by a small group of people with ulterior motives?
Therefore, he made up his mind to destroy his relatives for justice!
I thought that when I met Master Jiao this time, I would like to express my interests and urge him to report the matter to the court. Who would have thought that Chen and Li were innocent and tied him to Dali Temple without saying anything.
As for why he refused to explain the truth at the beginning...
Of course, it was because he was tied up in a confused manner and was worried about any conspiracy in it, so he chose to temporarily respond to changes in the same way.

This guy is really a serious imperial examination. Although he only has a scholar's fame and fortune, he has learned a lot of skills in turning black and white.
Through the description of the seven-point true and three-point false, he was once again promoted to a position of cleverness, wisdom and righteousness, and also slandered Chen Wansan and Li Qing as a gentleman's heart as a villain. Coming to Dali Temple to report the case was just a superfluous move.
The key is that although anyone can see some clues about the three-point falsehood, it is absolutely impossible to verify the authenticity.
After sighing for a while, Jiao Shun began to read it from the beginning for the second time.
When he first passed, he mainly focused on the origin of the matter, and the focus of this second pass was mainly on the details of the answers and turning points.
Just now he vaguely realized that although the questions raised by Tang Si in the transcript were all stable and there was no tendency, many times Chen Wansan and Li Qing's answers clearly showed resistance and indignation.
During this period, Chen Wansan lost his composure several times, and the mistake was that he was stopped by Li Qing in time. He was afraid he would be considered a roaring court.
After this second careful verification, he confirmed this idea again.
This Tang Temple definitely showed a tendency during the trial in the hall!
After all, the transcript is not a video. It only records the Q&A content of both parties, but the expressions, actions, tone, etc. outside this will not be clearly marked. Therefore, veterans in the trial often use these details to induce the answers they want without any trace.
If Li Qing had not been restrained and sober, then Zhu Tao would have revised his confession in court, what conclusion would have been drawn in the final trial? I am afraid it may not be known yet.
Jiao Shun put three confessions on the coffee table and raised his eyes and asked, "Can I see them?"
"This is just a matter of incompatibility."
Fang Wen smiled and said with apologies: "Now the three of them are being supervised separately, and they cannot even meet each other, let alone you? The mistake is not related to the Ministry of Works, but to you, Chief Jiao. I am afraid that even this confession cannot be revealed to the outside world."

First, making decisions for the people is politically correct, and no matter how you despise them, it is hard to oppose them openly; second, the emperor has always been not very satisfied with him, the Minister of Works, and it is still recently implemented Jiao Shun's new policy, so he took the opportunity to stabilize the chair under his butt.
Gu Feng
If he refused to stand up for Jiao Shun or for the sake of engineering, once the news reached the emperor's ears, he was afraid that as the defendant, the Minister of Rites, would not have much trouble, and he, the "diligent master", would be dismissed from office first.
The one who is most likely to replace me by then is undoubtedly the Right Assistant Minister Su Youlin!
Due to this, Chen Shangshu could only stroke his beard and nodded while complaining, while secretly thinking about how to pass by perfunctorily.
"grown ups."
At this time, Jiao Shun bowed and said, "I naturally knew that Da Zongbo would never be involved in this matter, but the workers below all made speculations. If they didn't find out the matter clearly, they would probably hinder Da Zongbo's reputation."
"Therefore, the Ministry of Rites proposed the three judicial departments to review, not only to seek justice for our Ministry of Works, but also to not want the Ministry of Rites to bring unnecessary infamy for this, which will cause opposition between scholars and workers."
Chen Shangshu stroked his beard and nodded again, but secretly cursed Jiao Shun as a slave, so why did he be so familiar with these twists and turns in the officialdom?
If he blindly makes a request from the perspective of the Ministry of Works, as the Minister of Works, he would be fine to reject it, but Jiao Shun puts on the stance of considering the Ministry of Rites and wants to reject it again, wouldn’t it be like trying to conquer the Ministry of Rites and even deliberately provoke the opposition between scholars and workers?
"What Changqing said is very true."
At this time, Mr. Su also stood up and bowed and said, "If Lord Shangshu still has some concerns, then Su will report the report."
Shangshu Chen was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Su Youlin would go over and take the initiative to report, but in this way, he could take less responsibility.
He was about to agree tactfully and decently, but he didn't want to like being a peacemaker and liked to be a fence in everything. He also stood up and said with a sigh: "Jiang is willing to jointly write a report with Brother Yuting."
this……
Chen Shangshu unconsciously used his strength to pull off two precious beards. After all, he was also old in the officialdom. He immediately realized that he was not trying to overcome his own responsibility, but it was clearly sounding the horn of charge that replaced him!
Just imagine, if the two ministers crossed their memorials and submitted them to memorials, what would the emperor and the ministers think of him as the Minister of Works?
Without responsibility, it is difficult to convince the public!
At that moment, Chen Shangshu slapped the table and said with a sigh: "Okay, okay, okay! My Ministry of Works is united, why worry about the prosperity of all industries? I will submit the case to the Three Courts for the Tribunal to try this case in the name of the Ministry of Works!"
It is said that three women play one, but if these four officials get together, there will be more and more intrigues.
Seeing that Chen Shangshu made the decision, Jiao Shun felt relieved and quickly took the opportunity to sue him and retreated.
After coming out of the yard where the Shangshu was working on duty, he was thinking that after this matter was a big deal, the Ministry of Rites could not target himself and engineering for the time being. Can we consider taking advantage of the power of the royal merchants to truly embark on the road to expand enrollment?
Um……
Let’s forget it. After finally things are going to turn around, why bother to stab the hornet’s nest again?
After all, he is just a plain person who is greedy for power and beauty. He is just a means to climb up, and he does not really want to lead the workers and brothers to make a decision.
"master!"
At this time, a sudden whine came from the slanted down, which scared Jiao Shun, who was absent-minded. When he looked up, Jia Yun came out from behind the Moon Gate with sweat on his head and said in a slight manner: "Go back and have a look, Aunt Xing is about to give birth!"
"Um?!"
Jiao Shun was stunned: "Isn't you doing well in the morning? I'm going to give birth so suddenly?"
"I saw that you couldn't leave for a while, so I hurried home to report the news. Unexpectedly, when the aunt heard this, she broke the amniotic fluid..."
Jiao Shun was so concerned about anything else when he heard this. He was not by his side when his first two sons were born. This was so easy to be justified, how could he miss it again?
Now he rushed home quickly.
On the way, the next to him was thinking about something repeatedly: how can he show the joy of being a father for the first time?
But after thinking for a long time, I had no idea, so I could only choose to adapt to the situation.
When I arrived at home, the yard was full of people, such as Ping'er, Yuanyang, Caixia, Xiuju, Ying'er, etc., and the maid who represented the owner came in countless ways. Lin Daiyu even accompanied Xu in person in the living room.
Although Shi Xiangyun was embarrassed to show up, she also asked Lin Daiyu to bring the amulet of Guanyin that had been prepared for her child.
Even Jia Baoyu was following outside.
Jiao Shun greeted everyone randomly and hurried into the living room of the east wing. He could not stop crying in the south room. He also subconsciously joined the blessing team of Lin Daiyu and Xu.
After reading a few words, I remembered that something was wrong. I hurriedly shouted to the room again: "Xiuyan, I'm back, just don't worry!"
By the way, he stopped Siqi, who was busy in and out, and ordered: "Tell Wenpo, if there is anything wrong, just keep the eldest son first!"
After hearing this, Xu wanted to say something but stopped, and finally muttered, "I dare not let your adoptive father listen to this."
Lin Daiyu was very moved. Nowadays, she was in vain for her descendants. What's more, Xing Xiuyan was just a concubine?
If it were Jia Baoyu, not to mention whether he had made such a decision, even if he could think of this, I would probably not dare to say it in front of Mrs. Wang.
In fact, when Jiao Shun first became famous, the one who cares about Lin Daimei the most was when he was the one who looked down on him the most, but now his impression has changed again and again, and he even envies Xing Xiuyan for meeting such a good person.
Xing Xiuyan was obviously inspired by these words. In less than half a quarter of an hour, good news came from the delivery room. The Wenwo, who was invited to a lot of money, brought out a small person and said as if he offered treasures: "Congratulations to Master, Master Congratulations, he is a daughter of a daughter."
When Xu heard that it was a girl, he was obviously relieved. Outside the door, there was a rumor of Jiao Da cursing. This old man hated dogs in Ningguo Mansion, which was definitely not without reason.
Jiao Shun carefully took his daughter over, staring at her and said, "Mom, please help me with your plans outside first, I'll go in and see Xiuyan."
As he said that, he directly carried the child into the delivery room.
Xu was busy grabbing wedding candies and went to throw away the wedding money.
Seeing that the mother and son were busy, Lin Daiyu was hesitating whether to continue waiting in the living room, but she would go back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion first and come to visit Xing Xiuyan when it was convenient. When she heard someone outside laughing so happily, she leaned out and saw that Wang Xifeng had arrived.
Lin Meimei hurriedly greeted her, and then Feng Lazi suggested: "It's a coincidence that Sister Zhen, the East Mansion, just gave birth to a son, and Sister Xing, here, gave birth to a daughter. Isn't this a match made by heaven? Or I might as well be a man and make a baby for them to kiss."
As she said that, she couldn't help laughing.
