Chapter 129 Self-confessed(2/2)
The censor snorted coldly before speaking. Cheng Jiaoniang spoke first.
"I was the one who asked my brothers to return to Beijing for burial, I was the one who held roadside sacrifices, and I was the one who dispersed the wine to gather the crowd," she said.
It’s easy to admit it.
The censor held the gavel and wanted to take a picture.
"No one asked me to do this, I wanted to do it myself." Cheng Jiaoniang said, looking at him and smiling slightly.
The censor did not lose his mind because of the beauty's smile, but was so stunned by the beauty's words that he even forgot to take a photo of the gavel in his hand.
"What did you say?" he asked.
"It's me who wants to cause trouble, and I'll go up to Heaven to listen." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
In other words, she admitted that the public outrage in Beijing was intentional...
The man just now admitted nothing, but this woman admitted everything without even asking. The censor was a little stunned.
"Why are you doing this?" he asked.
"Because I want to strive for credit." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
It was quiet behind closed doors in the Imperial Palace, but the court hall was very lively the next day.
"...Gao Lingbo is so powerful on the outside that the courtiers know too much and dare not speak out. Jiang Wenyuan and others are arrogant and bully others, and they do not reward their merits. Your Majesty, the blood of shame has not dissipated by the Caochuan River!"
Today is the meeting of the imperial court, and originally it was just a matter of going through the procedures, but no one expected that a censor would start impeaching Gao Lingbo right here.
His words were so intense and his expression so excited that he almost stood in front of Gao Lingbo and pointed at his nose and cursed him.
There was no sound in the hall except the censor's voice, but even with his head lowered, the emperor could see the excitement flashing in everyone's eyes, the excitement of watching the excitement, and the excitement of waiting for the opportunity to join in the fun.
Just knew it would be like this.
The emperor's eyes fell on Chen Shao and Gao Lingbo intentionally or unintentionally, and saw that the two men had expressions of numbness, as unconscious as clay sculptures.
Whose idea was it? Did Gao Lingbo desecrate himself in order to retreat in order to advance, or did Chen Shao want to dismount despite losing both sides?
No matter which one of them it was, the emperor felt a little disgusted in his heart.
This is all caused by that funeral!
Miraculous doctor lady…
"Does the censor Zhongcheng just ignore this kind of disrespect for the court?" Some courtiers couldn't stand it and shouted.
Censor Zhongcheng, who was sitting aside, looked blank.
"It is the censor's duty to report events after hearing the news. We cannot treat him with the same etiquette as other court officials." He said calmly, pointing at the court official, "Stand down and don't make any noise!"
The court official's face turned red and he fluttered his sleeves and had no choice but to retreat.
The words of the censor here are still going on, and he has already begun to say that Gao Lingbo is ignorant and has no skills. He is lucky enough to be standing on the side of the court and does not know how to repay the emperor's kindness...
"How is the investigation on Lu Zheng going?"
Knowing that remaining silent and conniving would only make the court more disgraceful, the emperor spoke and interrupted the censor's words.
At the great court meeting, the emperor personally asked about Lu Zheng, which was equivalent to accepting Lu Zheng's impeachment.
Gao Lingbo glanced at Chen Shao, with a flash of hatred.
The emperor was forced to speak in front of all the ministers, and the court meeting finally reluctantly completed the necessary steps and dispersed. The officials who were promoted to the court moved to another palace to start the official meeting.
"Interrogations have been sent to the relatives of the five people in Maoyuan Mountain in the northwest." Censor Zhongcheng came out and replied, "The Censor's desk is copying and sorting out."
The emperor nodded and stretched out his hand to press his forehead.
"Master Li, I wonder how many people visited your Yushitai yesterday?" Gao Lingbo suddenly asked.
Censor Zhongcheng's expression remained unchanged.
"Seven people." He said without any concealment.
"How many of them are here for Mrs. Cheng?" Gao Lingbo asked with a smile.
He could have said this, but it was more effective to say it from the mouth of Yushi Zhongcheng. This Li Ziwen had always been lonely, but because of this, sometimes it was perfect to use it.
"It's all." Yushi Zhongcheng said without hesitation.
"Ms. Cheng's miraculous medical skills seem to be really popular." Gao Lingbo smiled and looked at the emperor.
