Chapter seven hundred and seventy first four crimes
Yes, Li Qi's tone was extremely bland, but between the lines, almost every word was praising himself to death, and he almost said that he was the sage Zhuge in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
To sum it up in two words - show off!
Even Cai You, who is a master in claiming credit, felt ashamed at these words!
However, Li Qi changed his usual style today. He did not do any tricks of suppressing first and then rising. Instead, he quickly claimed credit as soon as he came up, for fear of being robbed. This was somewhat unexpected by everyone. But in fact, in detail
If you think about it, you will understand that the mission to the Jin Kingdom was for external affairs. The Song Dynasty was very weak externally, which gave Li Qi a lot of room to play. However, this incident was internal, and Li Qi did not dare to be careless. He quickly first
Telling his own merits gave Song Huizong a very intuitive impression.
Cai You couldn't bear it anymore and said sarcastically: "From what the economic envoy said, it seems that he hasn't slept for several months."
"Oh, the British gentleman is really very discerning." Li Qi chuckled, pointed at his own eyes and said with a smile: "I think these panda eyes have said everything."
Panda eyes? Song Huizong rolled his eyes slightly at Li Qi and said, "Oh? I didn't expect Aiqing to gain so much land here. I'm really pleased." But his tone was very calm.
As soon as he finished speaking, a person suddenly stood up and said: "For the record, Your Majesty, I have a memorial note for you."
This person is none other than the Censor Zhongcheng Jiang Daoyan. As soon as he stands up, everyone from the emperor and prime minister to the civil and military officials will be startled because the so-called Censor Zhongcheng is equivalent to the director of the procuratorate and the inspector of evil.
, uphold the rules and regulations, discuss major matters with the court, and report small matters with impeachment. Whether you are the prime minister or the privy councillor, he can directly report to the court for impeachment and reporting. There is no need to worry at all, just say what you have to say, even if the emperor makes a mistake,
They would all come forward to correct him, and none of his officials were easy to mess with. Ministers like Cai Jing and Li Bangyan had suffered a lot at their hands.
The key is that these officials do not need any evidence to speak. If there is a little clue, they will magnify it infinitely and catch the wind and shadow. It is terrifying. Compared with the Jin Yiwei of the Ming Dynasty, they just replaced the swords on their waists with
Iron teeth and bronze teeth.
The fun begins.
Cai You and others began to get ready to watch the show. Cai Jing, Zhao Huan and others all had worried looks on their faces. They had very little information about this matter, but the coverage was so wide that
They didn't dare to come forward rashly.
Song Huizong said: "Jiang Aiqing has something to report."
"The minister is requesting the emperor to remove the economic envoy and send him to the army." Jiang Daoyan said meticulously. Judging from the expression on his face, he definitely didn't want to be joking.
This is really a stone that stirs up a thousand waves!
Although Cai You and the others expected that Jiang Daoyan would attack Li Qi, they did not expect that Jiang Daoyan would directly demand that Li Qi be sent to the army and be sent to the army. They were very happy.
Li Qi let out a whoop and said in an extremely exaggerated way: "General Yushi, what did you say? You were exiled to the army and sent to the army. You won't break your head, right?"
Jiang Daoyan fluffed up his sleeves and said: "Economic envoy, how can you be allowed to speak nonsense in the main hall." After that, he raised his hand to the emperor and said: "The humble minister asks the emperor to punish the economic envoy for contempt of court."
Day. I obviously despise you, so why do I despise the court? This guy is really pervasive. It seems that he has done a lot of frame-up and frame-up activities in the past. Li Qi gave him a slight glare, but did not dare to say more.
Song Huizong coughed lightly and said: "Economic envoy, you are not a cook now, but a third-rank official. You must pay attention to your words."
"Yes, yes, Wei Chen must pay attention." Li Qi nodded quickly.
Song Huizong shook his head helplessly and said to Jiang Dao: "Jiang Aiqing, the economic envoy has not been an official for a long time. I will give him a warning this time. I will not be lenient next time. Oh, you just said that you would remove the economic envoy. See him.
Confinement and distribution, why is this?"
Seeing that he had gained the upper hand as soon as he made a move, Jiang Daoyan became even more unstoppable and said: "Reporting to the emperor, the humble minister was definitely not innocent. The economy made him commit four major crimes, each of which is unpardonable.
"
"Oh? Then tell me quickly."
Jiang Daoyan said righteously: "First, the emperor appointed the economic envoy to investigate the robbery of military rations. Since the economic envoy wants to find out the truth, the culprit should be brought to justice regardless of any reason. Otherwise, where is the law? However, the economic envoy
But he did not do so. This is a crime of disregarding the law and covering up connivance; secondly, according to the information of Weichen, economic envoys, under the bright sky, blatantly seize other people's land, collude with upper and lower levels, oppress the people, and those who are officials are more
This is a crime with an additional level; thirdly, the economic envoy, as the commander-in-chief of the three yamen, mobilized the Western Army without permission from the emperor and the Privy Council, which is a crime of exceeding the regulations; fourthly, the economic envoy did not report any such a major event
, It is really contempt for the Holy Emperor. Moreover, the economic envoy rashly sent troops to Xixia without the consent of the imperial court, which almost caused a catastrophe, damaged our Song and Jin alliance, and ignored the safety of our Song Dynasty. His intentions are unknown, and he should be suspended from his post and accepted by the Ministry of Punishment.
The investigation will be carried out to find out the reasons before convicting him. This is evidence of the crime of the economic envoy collected by the minister, and I ask the emperor to make a decision."
"Bring it over quickly."
Song Huizong took the memorial and looked at it, frowning, suddenly slapped the dragon chair, and said: "This is unreasonable, Li Qi, what else do you have to say?"
Li Qi raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen has nothing to say! Because Wei Chen doesn't understand what Jiang Yushi is saying at all." Then he turned to Jiang Daoyan and said: "Jiang Yushi, you know how?
Isn’t it possible that I got the wrong person? I didn’t do anything you said!”
"The matter has come to this, and you still want to quibble. You really don't have any repentance." Jiang Daoyan angrily rebuked.
Hey, why are you still trying to play this trick with me? Li Qi cupped his fists towards Song Huizong and said, "This is for your Majesty's behalf. I have a personal note for you."
Song Huizong frowned and said, "Say."
Li Qidao said: "The minister wants to impeach him. Jiang Daoyan has made false claims, deceived the emperor, and framed Zhongliang. The emperor should punish him for the crime of deceiving the emperor."
Jiang Daoyan has experienced this kind of court debate too much, and he didn't panic at all. He sneered and said, "Then I don't know what evidence the economist has?"
"I am the evidence." Li Qi pointed at himself and said, "If what you just said is not true, then the crime of deceiving the emperor will be established."
Jiang Daoyan said: "The evidence is solid, how can I allow you to quibble."
"unambiguous evidence?"
Li Qi laughed and said: "If you want to tell me, you should call it---called, oh, four words, it makes no sense."
Puff puff!
Honest Zhao Huan and all the ministers burst out laughing after hearing this.
"You---you---." Jiang Daoyan had impeached countless people, but this was the first time he faced a rogue minister. He pointed at Li Qi and his face turned the color of pig liver.
Song Huizong said in a deep voice: "Li Qi, don't talk nonsense. Since you don't admit it, then bring out the evidence."
"Wei Chen obeys the order." Li Qi straightened up and asked: "Jiang Yushi, what do you think this first crime is? I'm sorry, I really didn't sleep well last night. I was not in a good state of mind and didn't pay attention."
Jiang Daoyan gritted his teeth and said, "Then please listen carefully this time. You are ignoring the law and covering up the sin of indulgence."
Li Qi let out a long sigh and said: "I remembered. You said that I was ordered by the emperor to find out the military rations. Since I can find out the real culprit, I should bring him to justice, right?"
Didn't you hear clearly? Why do you remember it more clearly than me? Jiang Daoyan knew that he had been tricked again. He hummed: "Did I say it wrong?"
"That's right, it's up to the emperor to make the decision. I don't have any say." Li Qi smiled and said to Song Huizong: "I dare to ask the emperor. Did you personally order me to go to Fengxiang Mansion to investigate the military rations?"
Song Huizong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Not bad."
"Are there any additional tasks?"
The more Song Huizong listened, the more confused he became, and said: "Why do you ask this?"
Li Qi said hehely: "Please ask your Majesty to answer Wei Chen first. Wei Chen will have his own explanation later."
What kind of tricks is this kid playing? Song Huizong said: "That's not true."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for telling me."
Li Qi said to Jiang Daoyan: "Jiang Yushi, have you heard clearly? The emperor sent me to investigate this matter. I live up to the divine grace. I have investigated this matter clearly. It can be said that everything is detailed and I dare not make any mistakes." I still have Zheyan's confession with me, and I completed the task perfectly. However, the emperor did not give me the power to impose punishment, nor did he ask me to bring the murderer back to Beijing. If I directly convicted Zheyan, then What are you going to say about my crime of exceeding the regulations? I am really not a human being! Although Zhe Yanzhi is the defense envoy of Weizhou, he is under the control of the prefect of Fuzhou. I handed him over to the prefect of Fuzhou for handling. What's wrong with that? Yes? Also, as far as I know, Zhe Yanzhi has been dismissed from his post and is being detained in Fuzhou. I believe the apology letter from Fuzhou will be arriving soon."
What a good boy, you dare to seize on my speech problem to defend yourself. Song Huizong coughed again and said: "Actually, the Fuzhou Zhejia sent someone to send a letter of apology yesterday. We will discuss the matter later."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Shall I just say it, Jiang Yushi, you are really telling lies with your eyes open."
Jiang Daoyan did not expect that Li Qi would make a fuss about the word investigation, and secretly scolded him for being shameless. He said: "In this case, you have no right to kill Ji Minren. You must know that Ji Minren's official rank is much higher than that of Zheyan." That’s a lot.”
Li Qi chuckled: "I really don't know how you climbed to this position. Were you there at the time? Don't talk nonsense if you weren't here. Do you know that I risked my life to obtain important information and was almost killed?" Fortunately, Ji Minren stabbed himself, not me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stand here and argue with you now. Regarding this, many soldiers have witnessed it. It was not me who killed Ji Minren, but The process of committing suicide is very tortuous. As for the thousand soldiers who followed Ji Minren and the two armies fought, if you insist that no one will die, then I have nothing to say."
Jiang Daoyan said again: "Then - how do you explain your attempt to seize the land of Fengxiang people? This is an ironclad fact. Don't say it. This is what the emperor asked you to do."
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "We'll talk about this later. We haven't finished talking about the first crime yet. Should you first withdraw my first charge and admit that you framed me?"
Jiang Daoyan was stunned and hummed: "This is my duty. Besides, I have no grudges with you, so why should I frame you? This matter can only be regarded as a misunderstanding at best."
"Responsibility? Misunderstanding?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Is it the duty of Jiang Yushi to frame loyal ministers? I understand, I understand. But if you accuse me of hundreds of crimes, wouldn't I have to move to your house and sleep with you?
I set up a bed, stayed up and debated with you all day long. If you lost, it was a misunderstanding. It was my duty. If I lost, I would be sent to the army. The crime is unpardonable. This is so damn fair. I just gave up. You
Whatever you say, I'd better serve as a soldier." (To be continued...)
