Or was it a conspiracy designed by Shangshu Gong to get rid of him?
He doesn't know
The only thing he can be sure of is that except for their factions, no one has the strength to cause such a huge storm.
Although the enemy is coming in a fierce manner, Du Lefeng is not a mud!
The next day, a memorial impeachment of a doctor from the Ministry of Revenue appeared in front of the emperor. It clearly stated how the Ministry of Revenue deliberately deducted funds from the Ministry of Works and how to enrich his personal pockets.
The emperor was in a dilemma because Gong Li, the Minister of Revenue, was his confidant and the head of the imperial party.
But in the court, the emperor cannot be solemn and cannot only investigate the corruption case of the Hanlin Court, and does not investigate the corruption case of the Ministry of Revenue.
Therefore, the emperor had no choice but to hand over the two cases to Dali Temple, the Censorate, and the Ministry of Justice to investigate thoroughly
Within a few days, impeachment broke out in the court, and the imperial party, the cultural party, and the rear party were all trapped in it.
Ten days later, Guanzhong City in the surrounding area - Yudi City, in front of the official residence of the prefect Hong
The sun sets west, lead clouds are heavy, the cold wind is gradually rising, and there is a vast snow around it
A middle-aged man in housekeeper's clothes was rubbing his hands constantly in front of the gate of the Hong Magistrate's residence.
From time to time, he looked up at the main road
"Master, I'm back home!" A servant who reported the news rushed into the sight of the Hong Mansion butler.
Hearing the sound, the housekeeper immediately shook his spirit and ordered his left and right, "Everyone is ready to stand up and welcome the master back home!"
After a while, the voices approached and the sedan chair stopped at the gate.
The butler hurried forward, opened the curtain, bowed and said, "Master, thank you for your hard work."
In the sedan chair, a middle-aged man wearing a fourth-rank Yunyan official uniform and fur coat beat him up and said, "Yes, I've been busy for a day and exhausted, butler Wu, nothing big happened at home.
?”
"If you say it to the master, everything is fine at home," Butler Wu said respectfully
"Well, this is the best." Prefect Hong nodded and said
These days, the court has been in chaos, and countless spearheads are pointed at the Cultural Party together.
As a key minister among the civil service party officials, Hong Gongfu burned many letters and documents in recent days.
I really don’t know when this storm will end!
When he got out of the sedan chair and looked up, Master Hong saw the gloomy weather at a glance, and immediately said unhappily: "Damn it, will this ghost weather be given a way out?"
