Zhao Kang just thought about it and realized why these unkind glances came from him.
Xiao Xuance had reminded himself before that many ministers were preparing to impeach him.
These people must have known about his return for a long time and were waiting for him to go to court!
Just as I was thinking about it, someone came over. It was Li Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War.
"Good morning, Imperial Master!"
"Good morning, Mr. Li." Zhao Kang greeted with a smile. He had no ill feelings towards Li Yuan.
On the contrary, I admire it very much.
Li Yuan smiled: "Master Imperial Master has been away for nearly a month. I wonder if there will be any gains?"
"Of course there is. After all, we are not going on a sightseeing tour." Zhao Kang chuckled.
Li Yuan's expression softened. Only Zhao Kang and Her Majesty the Empress knew that Zhao Kang went to Jingguo to form an alliance.
Outsiders don't know.
Li Yuan came here just to test it out, and he didn't think Zhao Kang was out for fun when he disappeared for such a long time.
After getting Zhao Kang's affirmation, he relaxed, but still reminded him: "Master Imperial Master, there is a mixed crowd in the outer city, but you still have to be careful about the safety of Your Highness."
"The water is shallow and there are too many turtles to make big waves. Don't worry, Mr. Li." Zhao Kang smiled calmly.
Li Yuan knew what was going on, and understood that Zhao Kang already knew that someone was going to target him, so he didn't say too much.
Following the words of the chief eunuch, he went to court.
Hundreds of officials entered the hall one after another in order of official rank.
Zhao Kang was not polite and sat down on the chair. This was the honor given to him by Her Majesty the Empress.
Many officials who saw it were filled with jealousy and envy.
After a while, Her Majesty the Empress walked out from behind, glanced at Zhao Kang who was dozing, and rolled her eyes.
This guy is still so out of shape!
Thinking about it, Her Majesty the Empress couldn't help but feel a little angry. She didn't even come to see her when she came back!
It took until today to go to court! Looks like it needs to be sorted out.
All the officials stood up to pay their respects. Xiao Linglong sat back on the dragon chair and said, "Do you have anything to report?"
Before Zhao Kang could speak, someone immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to tell you!"
"What do you want Master Chen to do?"
Chen Bing, the superior doctor, immediately said: "I want to impeach the national counselor Zhao Kang!"
Everyone looked sideways, Zhao Kang glanced sideways, was he trying to catch himself off guard?
He didn't mean anything. He was just a fourth-grade official, and it wasn't worth his while.
See if you have any accomplices yet.
Just as he thought, as soon as Chen Bing finished speaking, another official stood up: "Your Majesty, I also want to impeach the national counselor Zhao Kang!"
"There are still ministers!"
"Same goes for you, too!"
In an instant, more than a dozen famous officials stood up and wanted to impeach Zhao Kang!
This can be said to be something unique before!
If we want to say who is least afraid of death in the court, it is the historian and the yanguan.
They are the ones who like to advise His Majesty the Emperor the most, and they are not afraid of the Emperor's anger at all.
It can even be said that some of their suggestions were deliberately intended to find fault with the emperor!
What if the emperor is so angry that he kills them with a knife?
It's okay, the historian will record how they did it, and then it will be the so-called leaving a name in history, and the name will be passed down through the ages.
What are they talking about as officials and historians? Isn’t this what they want?
Therefore there is such a saying among them.
Any official who has never made the emperor angry must be incompetent!
At this moment, a group of officials jumped out to impeach Zhao Kang. Even though Her Majesty the Empress had foreseen this, it was still a huge headache.
In this situation, even if she wanted to favor Zhao Kang, she didn't know what to say.
The phoenix eyes looked at Zhao Kang, okay!
She was worried here, just like a dead pig that is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. She took out her ears as if nothing happened.
Is it okay for the public officials to accept this attitude?
Chen Bing, who was taking the lead, said angrily: "Your Majesty! Zhao Kang is arrogant and arrogant in taking credit and relying on favor. I ask your Majesty to remove him from the position of national advisor! As a punishment!"
Xiao Linglong frowned: "National Master!"
"Ah? Your Majesty, you called me!"
Zhao Kang, who was yawning, straightened his back quickly: "Your Majesty, please speak!"
Li Yuan and others were delighted to see that they didn't take the ministers seriously at all.
This hob meat is really brave!
Xiao Linglong said angrily: "The Imperial Preceptor has nothing to say about the impeachment of Mr. Chen and others!"
Bastard, I don’t care about you anymore!
Zhao Kang laughed, turned his head and looked at the officials headed by Chen Bing, his eyes showing strong disdain.
"Now that His Majesty has spoken, I would like to ask you, Mr. Chen, why did you want to impeach our national division by bringing together such a group of people?"
Chen Bing snorted coldly, already thinking: "You, Zhao Kang, hold an important position as a national counselor, but you neglected your duties. You didn't go to court for twenty-six days in a month!"
"It is a crime to live in a state where nothing exists!"
Another person said: "Second, he corrupted the country and took Prince Xuance to stir up trouble in the outer city, causing the people to suffer unspeakably."
"His Royal Highness is young now and is most easily influenced. Your Majesty and the ministers even heard that His Highness personally led people to fight in the streets, just like the thugs in the market! Zhao Kang's move is simply destroying our great state!
Your Majesty, you are harming our country and the country!"
"Third, you, Zhao Kang, are lawless. I have found out that during your stay in Yuanjiang County, you deceived and defrauded people many times. You deceived people from surrounding counties and went to Yuanjiang County to work as coolies. You made money wantonly and did everything you could to make money. Your Majesty is such a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people.
You are simply a worm in our country! You should be killed!"
After counting the three days of crimes, Chen Bing and other officials looked at Zhao Kang with sneers.
They still have a sure chance of victory. After all, what they racked their brains to come up with is a fact that Zhao Kang cannot refute at all.
Xiao Linglong and all the officials looked at Zhao Kang with changed expressions.
However, he saw that Zhao Kang was not in a hurry, and there was no panic look on his face at all.
"Finished?"
Chen Bing sneered: "What? Your Majesty the Imperial Master still wants to refute! Facts speak louder than words, even if you deny it in every possible way, it won't change it."
Zhao Kang chuckled: "Who said I would deny it?"
Everyone couldn't help but be confused, and Xiao Linglong panicked: "Zhao Kang, don't you have anything to say?"
Zhao Kang stood up from the Grand Master's chair and said with a smile: "Of course, Mr. Chen said that I cheated and deceived him, and I have to refute this!"
Chen Bing angrily scolded: "How dare you quibble! The tens of thousands of people in your Yuanjiang County have already exceeded the county population. Are you going to say that they are all born to the people of Yuanjiang County themselves?"
Zhao Kangxiao: "Of course not. The people in our Yuanjiang County are rich and each family earns less than two taels of silver per month. With such superior living conditions, people in other counties are jealous and want to settle in Yuanjiang County. What? Is it possible that I still want to put them there?"
Can’t we fight him out?”
Chen Bing and others looked embarrassed. After all, they had been to Yuanjiang County, and the living conditions in that place were indeed far superior to those in some counties, and even all state capitals could not compare with them!
