After coming to court, the first thing Guo Chong did was to ask about the funeral of Lin Jueyan and Fang to show his concern.
"Lin Jue, how did the funeral of Yan Aiqing and Fang Aiqing go? Tell me and everyone. The funeral was held yesterday."
Lin Jue immediately made a detailed report, but in fact not many people were willing to listen. A group of people yawned and thought anxiously: The purpose of convening an impromptu morning court was to report these things? Who cares about how the two dead people are buried? This Lin Jue
No matter what tricks he plays, the emperor will let him do whatever he wants.
After listening to Lin Jue's report, Guo Chong nodded and said: "Lin Jue, you did a good job. The two beloved queens are buried in peace, and I feel relieved. Please tell the families of Yan Aiqing and Fang Aiqing for me, asking them to express their condolences and accept the change.
If you have any needs, please tell me and I will take care of them."
Lin Jue nodded in agreement, and then the court suddenly fell into an awkward silence. Guo Chong didn't know what to say, and the officials had no idea of provoking anything. Lin Jue just stood there in silence. This was the young man in the court.
There are some embarrassing scenes.
Guo Chong was waiting for Lin Jue to tell him about the matter that he wanted to discuss in front of him. When he saw Lin Jue standing there without speaking, he reminded him impatiently: "Dear ladies, do you have anything important to report?
Discuss? If not, I will withdraw from the court."
"I have nothing to report," everyone said.
Guo Chong looked at Lin Jue, who still stood there frowning. Guo Chong decided not to wait any longer, raised his hand and said: "Then, let's retreat from the court. Let's disperse."
"Wait a minute!" Lin Jue finally spoke: "Your Majesty, I have something to report to you."
Guo Chong smacked his lips and said, "What's the matter with you? Come quickly."
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "The minister wants to impeach three people."
The officials were shocked and looked at Lin Jue in surprise. Lu Zhongtian, Yang Jun and others were already about to leave, but their eyes widened at this moment.
"Oh? Impeach others? Who do you want to impeach?" Guo Chong asked.
"The people I want to impeach are Lu Zhongtian, the current Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Jun, the current Privy Councilor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and your son, the King of Huai Guo Xu. It is these three people I want to impeach." Lin Jue said solemnly.
"What?" Everyone was stunned and stunned on the spot.
Guo Chong looked at Lin Jue in shock. He never expected that the important matter that Lin Jue requested to call for a morning report today was actually to impeach Lu Zhongtian, Yang Jun, and the second prince Guo Xu. This made Guo Chong not know what to say for a while.
Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun were also shocked, but soon the shock turned into sneers. The officials were stunned at first, but soon they all started whispering.
"Are you crazy, this Lin Jue? What is he going to do? Impeach Prime Minister Lu and Privy Council Yang? Take His Highness Prince Huai away? Bite three people at once."
"Isn't that true? He must have lost his mind and gone crazy. Is it because his teacher passed away and he was stimulated? This is no joke."
"I can't say for sure. Maybe there is something we don't know about. Let's just listen. There must be a reason."
"Yes, yes, listen."
Amid the discussion among the people, Guo Chong came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Lin Jue, you have been busy with the funerals of Yan Zhengshu and Fang Dunru recently, and it is said that you have been very hardworking. In addition, you and Fang Dunru have a close relationship with each other, so Fang Dunru
I can understand that you must be depressed and in a bad mood after Dun Ru passed away. Lin Jue, you should go back and have a good rest for a few days to calm down your mood. As time goes by, the pain may subside a little, and everything will be fine.
Get better. Stop talking nonsense here."
Guo Chong said this out of good intentions. He was giving Lin Jue a step and a hint so that Lin Jue could take back what he just said and not make a big deal out of it. Although he didn't know why Lin Jue impeached these three people, he vaguely felt that
, this is Lin Jue's revenge, and it must be related to the death of Yan Fang and his two men.
But Lin Jue did not take up Guo Chong's words at all, and reiterated again: "Your Majesty, I am not tired, I know what I am doing. Today I want to impeach Prime Minister Lu Zhongtian, Privy Councilor Yang Jun, and Huai Wang Guo Xu. I
Not crazy!"
Guo Chong frowned tightly, leaned back, and thought to himself: I'm afraid this year will be difficult again. I'll have a headache, really a headache. How come there are so many troublesome things in the DPRK? It's such a troubled year.
Lu Zhongtian said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin wants to impeach the old minister, Privy Yang and His Royal Highness Prince Huai. The emperor should let him finish his words. Otherwise, the old minister and others will not be able to bear this reputation."
Yang Jun also stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "What Prime Minister Lu said is true. I am working hard, but I dare not bear the reputation of being impeached. I must find out clearly. Even if Mr. Lin is sad about the death of Mr. Fang and Mr. Yan, he still
You can't just talk nonsense and impeach important officials in the court because of this. You must ask the emperor to allow Mr. Lin to speak clearly."
Guo Chong sighed and thought to himself: Since you are not willing to let me live a peaceful New Year, I can only watch you tormenting. The worst I can do is watch a show. You just bite each other.
"In that case, Lin Jue, I allow you to finish what you have to say. What are your reasons for impeaching Lu Aiqing, Yang Aiqing and Guo Xu? I want to remind you that falsely accusing important officials in the court and talking nonsense is a serious crime. You have to think clearly." Guo
He said in a cold voice.
Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen knows very well. Since Wei Chen dares to come out to impeach these three people, he naturally understands the consequences. Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. If Wei Chen's impeachment is false, I am willing to accept any punishment.
.”
Guo Chong nodded and said: "Okay, in that case, tell me what your reasons are for impeaching the three of them."
Lin Jue bowed and said yes, then turned to look at Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun, his eyes like lightning. Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun had been fighting for a long time, but when they saw Lin Jue's eyes, they felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts.
"The reason I want to impeach Lu Zhongtian is that as the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lu Zhongtian should be loyal to the Holy Emperor, wholeheartedly think about the country and the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty, assist the monarch, and stabilize the court. When making decisions on major affairs, he should consider Zhou Xiang. If he cannot do this, then
It's because he is not qualified for his job or has ulterior motives." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
Lu Zhongtian frowned and shouted: "Lin Jue, I thought you could come up with something new. What you said was unclear. It was obviously a big accusation against me. How could I not think carefully and be incompetent in my job?"
?What kind of ulterior motive is there? If you want to frame me falsely, you must at least have a concrete case instead of just talking nonsense."
Guo Chong also frowned and said: "Yes, Lin Jue, I remind you that it is not okay to randomly plant charges without evidence. I must not listen to this."
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "Of course there are specific cases. Prime Minister Lu, let me ask you, why did the Qingjiao rebellion start?"
Lu Zhongtian was stunned, stroked his beard and sneered: "What's your question to me? The cause of the Qingjiao rebellion has been determined. The disadvantages of the new law led to widespread resentment among the people. The Liao people took the opportunity to support the evil cult and cause chaos. The root cause lies in this new law.
Above. Fortunately, the emperor is wise and has suspended the implementation of the new law. I will bring order to the chaos. From now on, the people's sentiments will surely stabilize and the country will be peaceful and peaceful."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "Okay. Maybe I asked the question in the wrong way. Let me change the question and ask Prime Minister Lu. Who first discovered the signs that the Qingjiao was becoming stronger?"
Lu Zhongtian frowned and thought for a moment: "What does this... have to do with your impeachment of me?"
Lin Jue said: "It's a big deal. Mr. Lu doesn't want to answer, so I'll answer it for you. I was the first to find out about the Qingjiao becoming powerful. At that time, the official was still serving in the Criminal Division of Kaifeng Prefecture, and Changheng County reported to Mo Shi.
In the case of a couple murdering their own daughter, the official sent people to arrest the criminal, but was detained by the Qingjiao believers. The official then went to arrest the person in person, but was blocked by the Qingjiao members and barely escaped. After returning, the official felt that this was
Something strange happened. When I saw the Qingjiao preaching on the street in Yingtian Mansion before, I was shocked to realize that the Qingjiao seemed to have an agenda. After that, the official reported the matter to Zhu Zhirong, the magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture, who reported it to
Prime Minister Lu, yes or no?"
Lu Zhongtian frowned and thought for a while and said: "That's true, so what? Do you want to take credit? The emperor has already commended you, are you afraid that the court won't know about it?"
Lin Jue sneered and said: "Application for credit? Do you still need to ask for credit for your contribution to the Qingjiao Rebellion? What I'm talking about is not about whether to ask for credit or not. Don't take the subject off topic, Mr. Lu. I'll ask you again, Mr. Lu.
How did you deal with it after you learned about it?"
Lu Zhongtian's heart trembled. He seemed to have noticed the meaning of Lin Jue's words, and said coldly: "Do I need to report to you how to deal with the truth? What a joke."
Lin Jue chuckled and said: "Prime Minister Lu refused to say it. I am young and have a good memory, but I remember it very clearly. I will tell you for you. Prime Minister Lu did not report to the court to inform the Qing Sect of becoming a powerful person.
In the name of attacking official officials, the cultists mobilized a force of 500 troops from the Dianqian Division to escort the Mo family and his wife, who had been arrested and returned to Beijing from Changheng County, to Changheng County to hold a public trial, right?"
Lu Zhongtian's expression became a little nervous, and he shouted coldly: "So what? I did this to shock the Qingjiao followers and let them know the consequences of resisting the imperial court. Did I do it wrong?"
Lin Jue laughed and said: "Whether it is right or not depends on the results. Let me ask Prime Minister Lu, since you already know that the Qingjiao is powerful, why did you send someone to escort the Mo family and his wife to Changheng County for public trial and beheading? Mo family
The couple has been arrested and taken back to the capital. If they want to be punished, they can be executed in the capital. Lu Xiang sent 500 forbidden troops to escort them to Changheng County for execution. What does that mean?"
Lu Zhongtian said angrily: "I told you the truth, it was to frighten the believers."
Lin Jue sneered and said: "Are you shocked? The actions of the five hundred forbidden troops in Changheng County triggered a riot in Changheng County, and Changheng County was destroyed. Although thousands of believers were killed, they were attacked on the way back.
And the whole army was wiped out. This incident was the trigger for the entire Qingjiao rebellion. Prime Minister Lu might say that it was the fault of the Qingjiao bandits. But I want to ask Prime Minister Lu, why did he send Mo's family away even though he knew that the Qingjiao bandits were in power?
The couple went to a public trial in Changheng County to provoke the Qingjiao believers. What kind of behavior was this? As the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, don’t you know the consequences of doing so? Anyone in that situation would think twice and consider the situation comprehensively. Since
The Qingjiao had already become a powerful force. With the permission of the imperial court and preparations, they killed the Qingjiao before the rebellion started. However, what Lu Xiang did was to scare the snake and provoke the Qingjiao, which made the Qingjiao bandits realize
They had nothing to hide, so they immediately rebelled. Instead, the imperial court was caught off guard. Overnight, all the east and west roads in Beijing were destroyed, and the five counties in the north of Beijing were occupied by religious bandits. They even threatened the safety of the capital for a time. To quell the rebellion, they died.
How many people? How much money was spent? Prime Minister Lu, don’t you feel any guilt at all?”
