Chapter 282 Taken Away
"How many children do you have at home?
Are you all married?
Have any grandchildren?
The elderly at home are all still alive.
I don’t know how the crime of falsely accusing a court official is usually punished. "
Zhou Huaishan stimulated Zheng Yushi in an extremely light and indifferent tone, neither salty nor bland.
Zheng Yushi wiped off the sweat on his forehead, then wiped off another layer.
All he hoped for now was that Duan Kangbo would pass out quickly.
As long as Duan Kangbo is awake, what he says will definitely be inconsistent with what he just said.
But he said it categorically, and he had evidence.
If his evidence were different from the confession of Duan Kangbo, it would be really...
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Zheng Yushi became.
However, Zhou Huaishan was like a ghost that was still lingering, mumbling in his ears.
"This Dali Temple Minister must be Lord Shen. At the last palace banquet, his daughter Shen Mingzhu tried to humiliate my daughter.
The result seems to be that he shot himself in the foot.
Hey, if you harm others, you will get retribution sooner or later.
What is the relationship between Master Shen and the Crown Prince of Zhenguo?
"
Zheng Yushi wished he could stop Zhou Huaishan's mouth.
However, the emperor was extremely tolerant of Zhou Huaishan.
Zhou Huaishan was so rude and chattering in front of the emperor, but the emperor didn't say a word, and there wasn't even a hint of displeasure on his face.
The emperor loves Shen Li to this extent?
Unfortunately, they couldn't get the slightest clue against Shen Li.
As long as the chamberlain was gone, Zhou Huaishan stood beside Zheng Yushi and frightened him with neither height nor height.
Until finally, when the chief chamberlain and the minister of Dali Temple, Shen Zhuo, entered the imperial study, Zheng Yushi's legs were so weak that he could hardly stand.
After saluting and saying hello, Shen Brown glanced at Zheng Yushi, but with this glance, he saw Zhou Qing out of the corner of his eye.
Zhou Qing's face made Shen Brown startled.
After the palace banquet that day, he originally wanted to visit Zhou Huaishan.
But the wife and second daughter in the mansion were both sick, and he couldn't leave for a while.
Unexpectedly, I met him here.
Looking past Zheng Yushi, the Dali Temple minister stared straight at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Huaishan frowned and turned away to block his gaze.
Not seeing Zhou Qing, Shen Brown was suddenly startled and quickly averted his gaze.
The emperor seemed to be looking at Shen Brown's reaction and said, "How is Duan Kangbo?"
Chen Brown hurriedly bowed his body and said: "Your Majesty, Duan Kangbo is old and has weak bones. After the shadow interrogation, his body was really damaged.
When I went there today, Duan Kangbo looked very poor, so when I asked him, I didn't ask any more questions. "
The emperor nodded.
Shen Brown continued: "Duan Kangbo mentioned that he did give Zhou Yuan a sum of money. At that time, he wanted to recruit Zhou Yuan as his wife. In order to appease Zhou Huaihai's family, he asked Zhou Yuan to give Zhou Huaihai the money."
Yesterday, Zhou Qing settled an old score in Jingzhao Yin. After the third lady returned, she mentioned the matter to Duan Kangbo, and the two agreed on the same story at that time.
Zheng Yushi felt slightly relaxed after hearing these words.
"Duan Kangbo said that he first gave Zhou Yuan three thousand taels and asked Zhou Yuan to take it home to improve his living conditions at home.
Later, it was decided that Zhou Yuan would marry into the family, and another five thousand taels were given to Zhou Yuan to spend on making friends in Kyoto.
Later, when Zhou Yuan got married, Duan Kangbo gave him another five thousand taels. "
After a pause, Shen Brown added: "Duan Kangbo gave these to the third lady without telling her, so the third lady didn't know about it."
As he said that, he glanced at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing looked expressionless and lowered his eyes.
Zheng Yushi thought silently, oh ho, ten thousand taels is enough.
Zheng Yushi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Zhou Huaishan said: "Did Duan Kangbo give Zhou Yuan a total of thirteen thousand taels?"
The minister of Dali Temple, Shen Zhu, said: "Yes, a total of thirteen thousand taels."
"Did anyone else give it to Zhou Yuan? For example, the third lady or the ladies of Duan Kangbo Mansion or something?"
Chen Ruo shook his head, "The third lady never gave Zhou Yuan any money before she got married, and neither did the wife in the mansion."
Zhou Huaishan silently took out a small notebook, turned around and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this is not right. The house Zhou Huaihai bought in Qinghe County contains not only 1,000 taels, but also 500 taels. In addition, he also invited nursing and nursing staff to the house. servant.
Excluding these expenses, Zhou Huaihai was robbed of one thousand taels by Qinghe County gangsters.
In Qingquan Temple, he was compensated one thousand taels for framing Zhou Qing and Cao Min's third brother.
Because he destroyed the flowers of Qingquan Temple, he compensated the temple two thousand taels.
Later, in order to frame the grassroots, he asked Sun Zenian, a native of Qinghe County, to talk to the then magistrate, spending a total of five thousand taels.
Lin Lin finally came down and had ten thousand taels.
This does not include his usual spending on eating and drinking. "
Zhou Huaishan looked at his little book and carefully read every expense of Zhou Huaihai.
Zheng Yushi's face gradually turned green.
Is Zhou Huaihai so capable?
How could a scholar from the countryside be so capable of making mistakes?
Listen!
Is this something people do?
Did you spend so much money just on compensation? !
After Zhou Huaishan finished reading the small book, he turned to look at Zheng Yushi, "You said that Zhou Huaihai spent 10,000 taels of silver to give Hu Weiyue a gift. Where did the money come from? Did you give it to me?"
After saying that, before Zheng Yushi could react, Zhou Huaishan said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the common people believe that Zheng Yushi is framed and framed by the Minister of War, Hu Weiyue.
Although ordinary people have no official positions, they are responsible for the rise and fall of the world.
As a student of the Imperial College and the dean of Huaishan Academy, Cao Min has the responsibility and obligation to provide his meager strength for our better development.
Therefore, the common people sincerely request your Majesty to investigate Zheng Yushi strictly. "
Zheng Yushi knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged. There is indeed evidence for what I said. As for why the silver liang does not match, it may be that the evidence I found is different."
"Bah! Shameless!"
In the imperial study room, Zhou Huaishan spat vulgarly and boldly.
"If you succeed in the frame-up, that means the evidence is conclusive. If you fail in the frame-up, that means there are discrepancies in the evidence. Now that you have said this, why don't you go to heaven!"
After glaring at Zheng Yushi, Zhou Huaishan cupped his fists and saluted.
"Zheng Yushi came to the palace today, firstly to stop the demonstrations by the students of the Imperial College, and secondly to frame Hu Weiyue. Both of these matters are closely related to the grassroots. The grassroots ask your majesty to make the decision for the grassroots.
Maybe they are the ones who want to poison the common people. "
Zhou Huaishan also knelt down on the side of Zheng Yushi.
Zheng Yushi was stunned when he heard this.
poison?
Who wants to poison you?
Zhou Huaishan, on the other hand, looked at the emperor pitifully with a look of grievance and tears.
emperor
This look is exactly the same as the one I saw twenty years ago.
The emperor glanced at Zhou Huaishan, his face was expressionless, and he even said slowly and calmly: "Send Zheng Yushi to the shadow."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yushi immediately collapsed.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am wronged. I really did not want to harm anyone! I really received evidence that Hu Weiyue accepted bribes. Someone must want to harm me, Your Majesty."
"You can keep talking to Shen Li about this."
The emperor didn't even look at Zheng Yushi and said something serious or not.
After finishing his words, he waved his hand in disgust, and the head chamberlain immediately called someone to come forward and escort Zheng Yushi away.
