Chapter 713: Reunion on Reunion Festival

It seems that everyone has had an abnormal Mid-Autumn Festival in the 13th year of the Daxuan period: those who should go home cannot go home; those who should not be on the road are still on the road; those who can clearly reunite must stay away from their families and reunite with their colleagues.

The shopkeeper stood at the door and looked at the full moon in the sky, looking at the full moon in the sky, and felt very resentful.

I was so annoyed by these high-ranking officials that since the opening of the Blue House, they ruthlessly abandoned their restaurants and went to the Blue House forever.

Since I’ve been giving people a stinky foot, don’t come back? Hey! I haven’t come back on weekdays, and they all came here for the holidays today!

You don’t want to celebrate the festival, don’t delay me. I also want to go home and hug my grandson and see my wife!

Zuixianju is also a three-story building, empty, with only one private room on the second floor with guests, but the private room is silent at this moment.

Huo Weiting, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, was the convener of today's party. The attendees included Zheng Chunqiu, the Minister of Works, two censors, and two secret investigation departments. "Experiences", and the person responsible for "transferring documents in and out" is the person who handles the documents exchanged.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts and ghosts, and the Secret Investigation Department is not a solid piece. There are always people who cannot withstand the temptation of money.

Although the Secret Investigation Department is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, its salary is not higher than that of the same level. As an experience from the seventh rank, it should be said that it is the most embarrassing among civilian officials.

They belong to the military organization, but they do civilian work, which seems inappropriate to other colleagues.

In addition to their awkward status, their income is also embarrassing. They are not even as likely to have an eighth-rank county magistrate to have a higher income - no source of extra money.

Money is not omnipotent, but it is absolutely impossible to have no money. Everyone has to support their families. They live in poverty and are unwilling to be poor. It is a matter of time to be bribed.

The "evidence" about Chu Qing's rebellion obtained by Huo Weiting and others was collected, sorted and processed by these two people.

As for where they got the source of information, they can only be their colleagues everywhere.

The two experienced this and were worried.

In theory, they just need to provide the materials, but officials from the seventh rank cannot do anything else.

But being called to the dinner table today is equivalent to revealing the fact that they betrayed the Secret Investigation Department. It is really guilty. Why are you asking them to come!

"Chu Qing has nothing to do with my Ministry of Justice, so it's not convenient for me to mention this matter. Lord Zheng, you should do it." After a long silence, Huo Weiting finally spoke.

The emperor has not made it clear yet. Although almost all officials in the court have understood the contents of the memorials submitted in the local area, it is still difficult to impeach the court.

But who knows what the emperor means? Maybe the emperor has always favored Chu Qing, so he couldn't speak up at this time, so he waited for them to start?

If this is true, it doesn't matter who starts this, but what if it is not?

Zheng Chunqiu also considered this. He said: "The two censors have the right to hear the news, so it is better for you to start."

The two censors looked at each other: What round is this?

The spoken officials do not need to explain the source of the "report" news, nor do they have to bear the responsibility of false statements. However, when Chu Qing defended himself last time, the emperor had warned them: "The Censor's "the way of speech must be opened, but it must not be too complicated" and "what the censor's words should be practical", how dare they act rashly?

This is all about tonight, and I just want to impeach these few words, but I don’t want to be the first to do so. I just talked about it for a while, and I was silent for a while, and then I had another round.

A censor smiled awkwardly and reminded Zheng Chunqiu: "Mr. Zheng, your family has a marriage with Chu Qing. However, your second daughter was forced to marry far away from Jiangnan. Do you not plan to settle accounts with Chu Qing and draw a clear line?"

"You..." Zheng Chunqiu seemed to be choked and could not speak.

What festival is this? Hold your breath!

Only those who can celebrate the holidays safely are afraid that Baihua, who is far away in Xinlunzhou, is afraid.

At this time, he was drinking with Wei Chengyi at his home.

Wei Chengyi was depressed. Bai Hua filled him with wine, but he had no intention of holding it up. Bai Hua put his glass over and touched his, and drank it in one sip.

Bai Hua said: "It's right for her to drive you back. She shares good things with us. She bears bad things by herself. She is the pure man!

We should do our best and do our best. We should plan things with others and accomplish things with heaven. Don’t be bored, drink!”

Wei Chengyi finally picked up the wine glass, but hesitated a little: "Will the physical evidence we sent be too late? Is it too late?"

Bai Hua said, "Didn't you say that, it's up to heaven!"

***************************

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

The emperor looked at the two tied Voss men kneeling under the imperial case, looked at the confession in his hand, and asked, "Has they all been re-examined?"

Hu Hengqiu replied respectfully: "All have been reviewed again, and no more content has been reviewed, which shows that this confession is comprehensive enough."

***************************

Chu Qing didn't know how many people had not celebrated the reunion festival because of her. At this moment, she looked at a Kongming lantern that was burning halfway, and the remaining sparks were blown by the wind and slowly fell down, murmured: "It's mid-autumn."

"Yes, sister, we just rush to the road and didn't buy mooncakes. I'll bake a few bean cakes as mooncakes. They're all round anyway!" Zheng Xiaorou answered from the side.

Through Chu Qing's words and deeds these days, Zheng Xiaorou has known that Chu Qing's current situation is not good. She doesn't know how to help, so she can only try to arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Chu Qing looked back at her: "Okay, let's bake bean cakes together. After eating, I have something to say to you."

By the bonfire, Chu Qing and everyone were gnawing on baked bean cakes and talking about the "rebellion" with them.

After saying that, he concluded: "So, I didn't tell you before, because I was afraid that I had eyes around me.

Once you have any abnormal movements, it will be detrimental to you;

Now I have told you everything I know and what I judge. You should also understand that the situation is difficult. Therefore, take advantage of the reunion of families tonight and in the wilderness, and now you can leave immediately."

Chu Qing didn't want to implicate them anymore. It was now in a wilderness, not in a dense crowd. Even if someone monitored them, it wouldn't be so far away. It was the time to dismiss them.

Chu Qing aims to attract attention and delaying time and creating opportunities for Xiaobao. She bets on whether the emperor will have a brain cramp and really kill her.

But this gamble cannot involve irrelevant people.

"We won't leave!" Baijiaxing was the first to express his opinion: "We can't see you being wronged in vain!"

Zheng Xiaorou also said: "Yes! That's a big deal... Humph, do whatever you want!"

Chu Qing thought that Baijiaxing couple had a relationship with the Minister of Works, and Chu Qing used this relationship to run Zheng Chunqiu in the court. He thought that even if the couple was dismissed, they would not have a good life, so he would not persuade them.

But the others are different. They have little to do with Chu Qing and Chu Qing's industry, so they persuaded them to leave, but Xiangzi said, "There is no way! I won't leave if I beat you to death!"

The guards agreed, and even the eight female guards did not show any hesitation: "We won't leave!"
