"Your Majesty!"

From Lu Bingxun returning with a box of things, Zhao Junxiong knew it was over. Because the evidence was present, it was impossible to deny it, so he knelt down and begged for mercy.

After a pause, he added: "But I don't know about this, nor do I know that there are these things in my family. Maybe it was my family who took them on my back!"

Zhao Junxiong's move is not very clever, but it can have some effect. If accomplices help him plead for mercy, at least it can relieve some of the guilt.

"Your Majesty!"

Others from Gu Hanming's party also knelt down and pleaded with mercy, and some even defended Zhao Junxiong.

"What does Lu Qing mean?"

If so many court officials plead at the same time, if the emperor dealt with it severely, he would easily be called mean and ungrateful. Moreover, he had other purposes, which was to plot against Lu Hezhang.

Lu Hezhang did not disappoint the emperor, and immediately said: "The major corruption case in Shaanxi has led to civil unrest, and the court suffered heavy losses. If it is not severely punished, it will be a warning to the world. If this happens again, how can the court do it!"

As soon as Lu Hezhang finished speaking, his party also expressed his support, and the court officials were immediately divided into two factions. At this time, as long as the emperor expressed his attitude, things could be determined.

However, the civil officials were too powerful, and the emperor not only wanted to purge Gu Hanming's party, but also became interested in others, so he was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

The emperor did not express his opinion, but the confused prince did not know the problem here. He only knew that he could become the prince. Lu Hezhang made great efforts and immediately stood up to support: "Father, what Mr. Lu said is reasonable, and this matter must be severely punished!"

As soon as the prince spoke, many princelings and neutral officials also expressed their opinions, and the emperor frowned.

"Zhao Junxiong is imprisoned and interrogated by the Jinyiwei!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Yang Lian immediately stood up to object: "Your Majesty, Zhao Junxiong is an important official in the court, and should be tried by the Three Departments!"

Yang Lian is not a party of Gu Hanming, but the third-rank left minister of the Ministry of Personnel has a great connection. If the Jinyiwei interrogates it separately, it may involve many people, so he stands up to oppose it.

"I'm going to discuss

Lu Hezhang also spoke, and this move was related to the important interests of the civil service group, and he had to express his opinion.

All of the court officials knelt down, even the prince, which made the emperor feel a sense of pressure.

At this time, the only person standing in the court was Lu Bingxun. The emperor immediately looked over and hoped that the commander would stand up and speak.

But facing the civil servants of the court, especially the prince was still among them, Lu Bingxun retreated.

After all, even the emperor was a little worried about this kind of pressure. How dare he, a commander of the Jinyiwei, stand up blatantly?

This move immediately made the emperor dissatisfied, but no one supported him, and the emperor was not willing to be arbitrary, so he looked at Lu Bingxun with a cold look, and the meaning of coercion was obvious.

On one hand, there was pressure from the court officials and on the other hand, there was pressure from the emperor. Lu Bingxun wanted to die, but he still had no choice.

"Investigating a major case is the responsibility of the Jinyiwei. Please hand it over to the Jinyiwei for trial!"

Lu Bingxun's words aroused collective opposition from the court officials, especially Yang Lian, who spoke fiercely.

"The Jinyiwei is so happy that he is very fond of merit. There are countless unjust cases in the prison. The emperor handed the case over to the Jinyiwei for trial. He will definitely be a tragic move..."

Listening to Yang Lian's fierce words and the condemnation of the court officials, the emperor frowned.

The emperor is old and although he has no shortage of means, he has no desire. He is already a little worried when facing the powerful civil servant group.

Now that he has such a loud voice, he dare not act arbitrarily, fearing that he will gain a bad reputation.

"This case is handed over to the Jinyiwei and the three departments to hear it together. Let's retreat to the court!"

The emperor compromised, but this move put a lot of pressure on Lu Bingxun, especially not long after, a small eunuch came over and asked him to go to Dongnuan Pavilion to face the king, which made Lu Bingxun even more troubled.

When He Yuansheng took advantage of the situation at the court meeting, he saw clearly.

Especially Lu Bingxun's helpless choices under the pressure of all officials and the emperor's forced him to remind him of something.

In the evening, shortly after He Yuansheng returned to his residence, he heard the gatekeeper report that someone asked for a meeting.

After reading the post handed over by the concierge, He Yuansheng narrowed his eyes and immediately asked the concierge to lead the person in.

In a short while, a 15 or 16-year-old boy appeared in front of He Yuansheng.

"Are you Zhao Yousi?"

"yes!"

Zhao Yousi was a little embarrassed. After all, the first time the two met, they were very unfamiliar.

But when he thought of his mother's instructions, he immediately asked: "Brother He, are you here today? Are you trying to ask about your father's situation?"

He Yuansheng hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhao said he was unaware of it. It might be a gift received by his family in private. The emperor ordered the Jinyiwei to be tried together with the Three Divisions..."

He briefly told the situation and finally said, "But I will not easily expose this matter according to the emperor's meaning!"

Zhao Yousi was still young and didn't understand the situation. He could only keep He Yuansheng's words in his heart and go back and conveyed them to his mother.

Next, the two of them said a few more words, and because of their worries, Zhao Yousi quickly proposed to say goodbye.

He Yuansheng personally sent Zhao Yousi out. After thinking about it, he went to Ye Yumeng's place again. His idea still needs to be discussed with Zhiduoxing.

After seeing Ye Yumeng, He Yuansheng told the situation in the court and finally spoke solemnly: "Lu Bingxun's situation is a bit bad now.

The emperor must have the intention to use Zhao Junxiong's affairs to involve some people, but Sansi looked at him and many methods could not be used. In this way, he would be in a dilemma!"

"Does the master want to take the opportunity to move to Lu Bingxun?"

Ye Yumeng guessed He Yuansheng's purpose and raised her eyebrows.

"good!"

If you have an impolite immediate boss, your life will never be easy. Besides, Lu Bingxun's existence is still a roadblock. If He Yuansheng wants to take office, he must move him away.

"The stay or departure of the commander of the Jinyiwei has nothing to do with anything else, it only depends on the holy heart.

If the emperor was not disappointed with Lu Bingxun, even if all the civil and military officials in the court impeached this person, it would probably be of little use."

Ye Yumeng saw the key and said the key point, and these words also gave He Yuansheng an opportunity.

"At the time of the court meeting today, all the officials of the court asked the Third Division to review Zhao Junxiong. The emperor faced pressure and did not want to be arbitrary, so he winked on Lu Bingxun.

But Lu Bingxun hesitated for a while, would you say this cause the emperor's dissatisfaction?"

"There will be a little bit, but the emperor retreated a little when facing the pressure from all officials. Even if he is dissatisfied with Lu Bingxun's actions, he may not blame him!"

Ye Yumeng's reply disappointed He Yuansheng a little. He didn't expect that he would be unable to achieve his goal at all.

Perhaps seeing He Yuansheng’s thoughts, Ye Yumeng spoke lightly: “Lu Bingxun has been with the emperor for many years, and it is definitely not easy to move to him. You must not be impatient, otherwise you will put yourself in danger!”

"I'm anxious!"

With Ye Yumeng’s reminder, He Yuansheng naturally woke up and felt a little anxious.

After all, it was already a blessing to be promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei shortly after entering the officialdom. I still thought that I would move to Lu Bingxun in a short time, so I was indeed a bit ambitious.

"You don't have to be discouraged. If you can't move Lu Bingxun at this time, it doesn't mean you can never move him. As long as you are careful and persevere, you can achieve your goal sooner or later."

Then he changed the subject and said, "What lord should do now is to pull Lu Bingxun's hind legs. No matter what he does, he must report to the Zhao family and use the power of the civil servant to deal with this person!"

He Yuansheng narrowed his eyes when he heard this, nodded in agreement, and then began to think about the emperor's plans and what to do...

At the same time, Lu Bingxun was also worried in the Beizhen Fushi Office, and even Zhao Junxiong, who was imprisoned in the imperial prison, did not care about interrogation.

Because the people from the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and the Censorate are all in the Beizhen Fushi, if they want to interrogate, they must be together.

With the constraints of civil servants, Lu Bingxun could not use torture. What could he find out if he was restrained like this?

The annoyed Lu Bingxun regretted not falling at this time. He thought that this matter could be plotted against He Yuansheng, but he did not expect to cause trouble.

At the beginning, Lu Bingxun felt that the emperor was purge of Gu Hanming's party, and this case was just in line with the will of the holy people.

In the court, Lu Hezhang had his own purpose and would definitely stand by and watch. The Jinyiwei naturally did not have much pressure.

But now he is facing the entire civil service group, especially the emperor's purpose, not only Gu Hanming's party, but also wants to deal with some Lu Hezhang's people, which makes Lu Bingxun feel very difficult.

Lu Bingxun was not the only one who was worried. At this time, the censor Yang Lian was also visiting Lu Hezhang's mansion.

"Gei, I don't know what the emperor means, do you understand it?"

At the time of the court meeting today, Yang Lian had already realized that the emperor wanted to use Zhao Junxiong's affairs to suppress the civil servant group, so he stood up to oppose it.

Because it is only targeted at one Zhao Junxiong, it can be dealt with on the spot, and there is no need to let the Jinyiwei continue to interrogate. This is obviously a matter of Daxing the Imperial Prison.

"The emperor seems to be dissatisfied with me!"

Lu Hezhang is also an old fox, otherwise he would not have taken the opportunity to move to Gu Hanming, so he could also see the problems that Yang Lian could see, and this was the first to discuss in the court.

"Gei, let's stop here!"

Yang Lian's meaning is the Shaanxi corruption case. At this point, because Lu Hezhang's tacit approval of the emperor's actions, the civil servant group hugged each other and the case had long been settled.

In fact, Yang Lian himself does not form a clique for personal gain, he is even more honest in his official career, and he is somewhat public in his work.

However, this person has a weak overall view. When facing major events, he always likes to be stable and has a common problem of literati, which is to limit the imperial power.

The corruption case in Shaanxi has caused shock to the court. If Zhao Junxiong is deeply involved in the matter, it will be too much of a stir, so I will stand up to stop it.

"Why!"

Lu Hezhang sighed and said slowly: "Just as Lord Yang!"

With the emperor staring at him, Lu Hezhang could not cleanse Gu Hanming's party at will, so he could only extinguish his mind.

Because of the current situation, if the civil servant group continues to fight in the internal struggle, both sides may suffer losses. Jie Shixun Group and the eunuch Group will definitely take the opportunity to rise.
