Chapter 716
The moon is hard to fill (One)
The moon on fifteen may not be full.
The emperor asked Eunuch Li to go to the front hall early in the morning to inform him: I felt a cold last night and I would have suspended the morning for one day.
The emperor had already seen the ambition in the court, so he could only be called sick and strive for some kung fu.
This is his fault.
When he was suspicious, he immediately took action to remove Chu Qing, or could dispel his doubts earlier, and he would not be as passive as he is now.
On the contrary, after thinking about it, Chu Qing's assets were clearly checked, and his doubts also dissipated. However, the impeachment tide that was about to start in the court did not know how to calm it down, and Chu Qing's comfort...
….
When Hu Hengqiu ran to the Imperial Study room to present the latest progress, he was surprised to see a big blister appearing in the middle of the emperor's upper lip.
Eunuch Li was holding the mint tea that the emperor didn't like to drink the most and was whispering: "Your Majesty, it's better to have some tea than take medicine? Is it three parts poisonous to me?"
The emperor was very impatient, but he couldn't resist his loyalty. The personal slave who grew up with him since childhood frowned and tasted it briefly, swallowing it with some difficulty. Alas, his throat hurts.
"What's the matter?" asked the emperor, glanced at Hu Hengqiu's stack of official documents and closed it, which was annoying!
Hu Hengqiu: "Emperor, two things, the first thing, after verification, Shen Chongnian, the messenger of Dushui, did not cut corners, embezzled money, and did not passively slacked off;
On the contrary, he actively cleared the river and cleared the silt, but..."
"Just what?!" The emperor's lips hurt and his mood was even worse: "If you have something to say! Why was he involved in it when he was not at fault?"
Hu Hengqiu glanced at the emperor and felt that the slaughter seemed to be bigger?
Hu Hengqiu immediately lowered his head and ignored him: "It's just that he offended the Jiaxing Prefect, because Shen Chongnian advocated for bifurcation of the canal tributaries and divided an additional waterway to slow down the flood discharge pressure during the rainy season upstream;
But the route he designed happened to pass through the private fields of the prefect of Jiaxing. The prefect of Jiaxing Zhang Jianbin asked him to change the route again, but Shen Chongnian refused and had a dispute;
Just as the silt and algae accumulated in the river channel could not be transported out and could not be dumped at will, Zhang Jianbin falsely accused him;
As for the embezzlement of funds, there was no such thing as the ship was destroyed by the reefs and water plants below in the silted river section and needed repairs, so the funds had not been paid yet;
But the boatman wanted to withdraw the money in advance for repair, but this was not within the contract entry and it also delayed working hours, so Shen Chongnian did not agree;
Only then was the prefect Zhang Jianbin falsely accused of embezzling funds and passive slack work, and cutting corners was even more false."
As for why the ships hired for dredging are so easy to break, this is not something non-professionals can tell.
Anyway, Chuantou said to his brothers in private: "The command given by the gang leader is to 'make something out of nothing, and find trouble if you have nothing to do', so don't think about making money."
The emperor thought: Shen Chongnian was also unlucky enough. He was working and wronged and could not go home for reunion during the holidays, so he felt compassion.
Of course, Shen Chongnian is indifferent to his compassion and will not think of a female official.
Anyway, the Secret Investigation Department also found out the matter in advance, so the emperor told Eunuch Li: "Give him a box of mooncakes to Shen Chongnian's house."
Even if this matter is handled, the emperor will give a box of mooncakes to his ministers and families, not whether the reward is heavy or not, but mainly to show his attitude...
"What about the second thing?" asked the emperor, taking another sip of peppermint tea. Although he didn't like the smell, his throat seemed to be more comfortable.
Hu Hengqiu: "The second thing, after repeated confirmation from the minister, the Secret Investigation Department experienced two experiences: Yuan Mao and He Xu were bribed by some officials. Combined with the briefings sent by various local authorities, Chu Qing's rebellion
'evidence……"
"Cough cough..." This mouthful of mint tea choked and the emperor coughed.
Eunuch Li immediately brought a soup cup: "Your Majesty, otherwise you can come in for some Annanzi stewed snow lotus..." The emperor waved his hand, and the taste was sweet or not, not as good as mint.
Hu Hengqiuquan pretended not to see it and continued to report: "But no matter what, this can only be considered an unexpected gain;
And by blocking Chu Qing’s shop, my subordinates found out more than a dozen spies from Vos, whose leaders were two aides of the fourth prince Vos, who were all detained;
Although Chu Qing herself was not aware of it, I believe that even if I informed her, she could understand that this is a problem that will inevitably arise in the process of encouraging trade between the two countries;
And it was also a problem with Voss that she was responsible for, so Chu Qing should be more supportive.”
"Gudong!" The mint tea was swallowed smoothly, and my throat seemed to be relaxing again.
"Well, I got it," the emperor put down the teacup, and there was not much left in it: "Is there anything else?"
"Not, I'm leaving." Hu Hengqiu left immediately after the ceremony.
The solution has been provided, and he can't think of any other ideas.
Thinking about it, my life is really hard. The good days of the Reunion Festival were spent alone in the study and trying to wipe the emperor's butt.
Thinking of my wife's nose this morning, her face is not like her face... Alas, when I go back tonight, I guess I can't coax it if I don't play five or eight songs.
"Emperor," Eunuch Li served the emperor with all his heart: "Do you want to call the imperial doctor to take a look? You are so angry..."
"It's nothing!" The emperor waved his hand, "It's just a small skin injury. I'll ask the queen for some ointment."
The emperor stood up and walked towards the Empress's palace.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor "stayed alone in the empty room". No one from the back to the concubine to the beauty ignored it. The concubines of all palaces who waited overnight all ran to the queen to find out the news - it was not that the queen went to the emperor's imperial study room to take over the whole life.
Pet, don't take them to play?
Seeing the "sisters" dressed up in full dress, with delicate makeup, but there was a blue-black black under their eyes that could not be covered by two kilograms of powder, the queen naturally understood what was going on, and felt a lot more balanced in her heart, and her attitude was naturally more graceful and peaceful.
After the salute, the "sisters" greeted each other, and there was joy and peace. The concubines tried a few words to see if the queen had "benefit alone", so it was difficult to remind everyone that they needed to "diet the rain and dew".
Besides, the harem is always an extension of the previous dynasty. A few chats with each other can test some of the emperor's attitude towards their respective families, and will not leave.
As we chatted, the topic turned to Chu Qing.
Chu Qing never expected that I was not from the harem, but I have been interfering with the bloody storm in the harem.
A "grace theory" aimed at "women and villains are hard to raise" once divided into two factions of beauties in the harem. A censor impeached Chu Qing and was demoted, causing his daughter to decline in the status of the harem.
But now the wind has changed. The women who once stood in the sidelines of Chu Qing did not dare to talk about this person this time, but those who opposed Chu Qing all attacked Chu Qing. Recently, undercurrents in the court were surging, who could not see it?
The concubines in the harem either had fathers or brothers in the previous dynasty, or were uncles, brothers, second uncles, and third uncles. This time, the storm about "rebellion" cannot be unknown.
A concubine said, "The queen, according to my opinion, it is not a man who says, "It is hard to raise women and villains."
You see, a woman has a poor vision, so she has to let others accommodate herself everywhere if she wants to be an official. If she has a little more ambition…”
