Chapter 999 Scandal (seeking double monthly ticket)(1/2)
Following a series of revelations about officials' corruption and extravagance, today's "Banana Daily" broke another big revelation, that is, Privy Councilor Cao Xiu, a Tongzhi Privy Councilor, committed adultery with the wife of his subordinate Privy Councilor Hong Gui.
As soon as this scandal broke out, it immediately shocked the entire Tokyo.
You must know that these two people can be called the second and third heads of the Privy Council, and the Privy Council is one of the two houses. Its status is extraordinary, and mortals can only look up to it!
But it happened that such a scandal occurred between the second and third bosses. Since the previous news published by Banana Daily had been confirmed to be true, the common people had preconceived notions and believed that this must be the truth.
Compared with the corruption news, the people seemed to be more interested in such tidbits. In this day, the Privy Council became famous. Of course, Cai You did not like this kind of fame.
.......
"I once had the honor to meet Cao Tongzhiyuan, but he was also a good-looking and gentleman, but I never expected that he would do such a stupid thing and even seduced the wife of a subordinate."
"This is called knowing people but not knowing their hearts. Those officials are not good people."
"Hey, hey, don't say this nonsense. Don't forget that the proprietor of Zuixianju is also a high-ranking official in the court."
"So what, isn't it the same as sweeping the streets?"
"At least he didn't hook up with his subordinate's wife!"
"That's true. However, the economy prevents him from doing such obscene things. Look at his four wives, none of them are as beautiful as gods. In addition, he also has an inexplicable relationship with Mrs. Qin.
I think there must be something fishy in it!"
"Mrs. Qin? Is this true or false?"
"You can't be wrong. Look at Mrs. Qin. She is no less beautiful than the four wives of the Economic Commander. She is even better. No man will not be tempted by her."
"That's true. Although Mrs. Qin is as cold as ice, just looking at her feels like a great honor."
...
"The officialdom is really complicated. It's so shameless for a dignified second-rank official to hook up with his second sister-in-law. Having such a person as an official is really a disgrace to the Song Dynasty."
"Yes! I heard that Cao Xiu was born in Tanhua, but I didn't expect that he has a human face and a beast heart."
"Hmph! In my opinion, this is called the upper beam being out of alignment and the lower beam being crooked."
"Oh? Are you talking about the Privy Councilor?"
"Isn't it him? The Privy Councilor is lustful and everyone knows it. Otherwise, why don't you tell me why this matter didn't happen in Zhongshu Province, or in the Third Division, but in the Privy Council?"
"Well, what you said makes some sense. I heard that these two people were promoted by the Privy Council after they took office."
"Now the Privy Council is really annoyed. Although this is not illegal, it will definitely bring shame to the Privy Council."
"It's not a good thing anyway. We just treat it as a show."
...
I saw Hong Tianjiu squatting on the chair, shaking his head and sighing: "Tsk tsk, this Banana Daily is really powerful, even this kind of thing can't escape their eyes. I don't know who they are? Where are they now?"
"
Zhou Hua asked curiously: "Xiaojiu, what do you want to do?"
Hong Tianjiu said: "Of course I will join them. Don't you find it interesting to know so many things?"
"It looks interesting to us, but it's not fun to do it. Now every official in the DPRK hates the Banana Daily. If one day we find out who is causing trouble, huh, those people will definitely end up
It won't be good." Chai Cong put down the newspaper, shook his head, and looked at the silent Gao Yanei in front of him with a smile, and said: "Yanei, you have to be careful recently and don't commit crimes against the wind.
If they find out about it, you will suffer the consequences."
Gao Yanei was startled for a moment and hummed: "I act upright and sit upright, so it's ridiculous that I would be afraid of a mere daily newspaper. He can just write. Although I have a status with those women, that's not the case. It’s really emotional.”
How shameless a person must be to be able to say such words. Chai Cong rolled his eyes and said, "Pretend I didn't say it."
Gao Yanei suddenly blinked and asked with a smile: "Hey! Have any of you seen the wife of Bachelor Hong Zhi?"
Chai Cong frowned and pondered, shook his head and said: "Maybe I have seen it, but I am not you, and I never pay attention to these things. Why do you ask this?"
Gao Yanei chuckled and said, "I just want to see what that woman looks like and whether she deserves to be treated like this by Cao Tongzhiyuan."
Chai Cong didn't know what this guy was up to, and said, "Yamen, don't say I didn't remind you. Your father is a Taiwei, in charge of the three yamen, and has a close relationship with the Privy Council. If you step in, If you want your father to find out, I have to break your legs."
Gao Yanei curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Where did you go? I'm just asking. I don't have any inappropriate thoughts."
...
In the Qingfeng Building, Song Moquan and Lu Baixiao stood in front of the window and admired the beautiful scenery. This time, the Hanlin Academy suffered the least loss, almost no losses. After all, the Hanlin Academy was headed by literati, and there were few places for them to make money, so they all suffered. It's still innocent, and they are happy to see all this, and who doesn't love to take pleasure in others' misfortune.
Lu Baixiao asked: "Brother Song, do you think this is true or false?"
Song Moquan smiled softly and said: "The location, time, and even when they went to the Taoist temple for a tryst were written down clearly. I sent someone to check and found out. Judging from the contents published in Banana Daily these days, I believe they are not It will be groundless, so I think there is a high probability that this will be true."
Lu Baixiao said again: "Then how will the emperor handle this matter?"
Song Moquan shook his head and said: "I don't know about this. However, even if this matter is true, it is only morally shameful and does not violate the law. Moreover, as long as the parties involved refuse to admit it, it will not be solved at all." It cannot be completely confirmed. It is not difficult for the Privy Councilor to suppress it, but the Privy Councilor will be troubled."
"Then shall our Hanlin Academy report to the Emperor?"
"Of course. If our Hanlin Academy ignores such shameless things, the scholars in the world will definitely criticize our Hanlin Academy."
.......
Privy Council.
"Old immortal, I regard you as my brother, but you treat me like this, and I will fight with you."
"Brother Hong, please calm down. This - this is all someone maliciously stirring up trouble."
"Now that the matter has come to this, you still want to lie to me. The adulteress has already admitted it."
"Wha---what? Qiu Si she---."
"Qiu Si? Wow, yeah, I want to die together."
Cai You, who hurried to the Privy Council, just arrived in front of the house. He heard the quarrel between the two people in the house. From the words of the two, he already knew that what Banana Daily wrote was true. He snorted angrily and turned to the side. Cai Wei said: "Give me the order to evacuate all the Wugan people. No one is allowed to come in here without my permission."
"As commanded."
Cai You came to the big room in the middle and saw Hong Gui and Cao Xiu fighting in a ball. They were all disheveled and disheveled. Especially Hong Gui, whose eyes were red, as if he wanted to kill someone.
"Stop! Don't you think it's embarrassing enough?" Cai You immediately shouted angrily.
Cao and Hong stopped immediately.
Cai You stepped forward, pulled the two of them apart, and said: "One of you is a second-grade man, and the other is a third-grade man. You are so dignified. You have brought shame to our Privy Council."
Hong Gui burst into tears suddenly and was on the verge of collapse. The cry was so tragic that it made those who heard it sad and those who saw it shed tears! While crying, he shouted: "Privy Councilor, this old immortal is seducing the wife of a subordinate. You have to make the decision for the subordinate."
Yeah!" If you are so big, you must be a cuckold. This is really intolerable!
Cao Xiu looked guilty and said: "Privy Envoy, I---."
Cai You really couldn't bear it. He quickly helped Hong Gui up and interrupted Cao Xiu's words angrily, saying, "What else do you want to say? How could you do such a despicable thing?"
Cao Xiu hurriedly knelt on the ground and said guiltily: "Xiaguan knew he was guilty. Xiaguan was also temporarily confused at that time. It should not have been done. It should not have been done. It was all Xianguan's fault. Xianguan knew he was wrong." In fact, he knew that he was wrong.
Life was not easy for him either. As soon as the news came out, his tigress threatened to live or die with him, crying and screaming. In desperation, he had no choice but to hide in the Privy Council, but he never thought that he would
As soon as he walked in, Hong Gui followed him in, angrily trying to fight him.
They say beauty brings disaster! But the problem is that the other party is just a MILF. This is really a loss for both the wife and the army. However, there is no medicine for regret in the world. If you did something wrong, you should accept it.
as a result of.
Cai You snorted angrily, but his voice was full of helplessness. This matter really embarrassed him. He had promoted these two people by himself, because he had no real information at all, so the Privy Council affairs basically
The city is left to these two people to take care of, and they can definitely be said to be his right-hand men. He sighed and said: "Scholar Zhi, please don't cry now. I will definitely give you justice for this matter in the future, but now I have to
Let it go first and put the overall situation first."
Hong Gui looked at Cai You in surprise, as if to say, "Let it go." You said it easily. If your wife was played with, would you let it go?
Cai You's eyes were a little dodgy and he said: "This matter has now become known to the world. Someone will definitely use this matter to attack our Privy Council tomorrow morning. Therefore, at this moment, we should unite as one, speak to the outside world together, and understand
?"
Hong Gui said aggrievedly: "But Privy Councilor, how can you ask my subordinates to tolerate this kind of thing?"
Cai You frowned and said: "You have to endure it if you can't bear it. Since it has already happened, even if you kill this guy, you will still be laughed at by others, and what will you get? Since you can't, why not find a way to remedy yourself?
reputation."
When Hong Gui saw that Cai You was angry, he didn't dare to say anything, but his eyes were full of unwillingness.
Cao Xiu hurriedly asked: "Privy Councilor, what should we do now?" If he loses his job because of this, he will really jump into the river and commit suicide.
Cai You pondered for a moment and said: "It's very simple. Don't admit it even to the death. As long as you don't admit this kind of thing, then they can't find any solid evidence. It's impossible for them to try to knock you down just by talking about it."
It's absolutely impossible. Remember, everyone around you who knows about this must also be taken care of. As well as the Taoist temple, you should also quickly send someone to tell them to shut up. If anyone dares to say anything, let them know.
They will always keep their mouths shut. Especially you, Bachelor Hongzhi, must not show any anger towards your wife at home, and you must also show affection."
Hong Gui said angrily: "Privy Councilor, now I can't wait to divorce that adulteress, but you call me ---."
Cai You hummed, interrupted him, and said: "I know you have suffered a lot, but now it is related to the reputation of the entire Privy Council, and even your future. Do you think those officials are vegetarians?
In their eyes, this moral mistake is more serious than breaking the law. Of course, I have the overall situation first. I don’t want to see any of you leave the Privy Council. Look, I don’t care what the facts are. If any of you don’t follow the rules
I told you to do it, and I want you to look good."
