Rebirth as Princess Jin again

"Ming Cha? Do you think Gu Hui listened to one side of the story and arbitrarily placed charges on you without any investigation?"

As he spoke, Situ Jin picked up a memorial from the table in front of him and threw it in front of him. He said in a cold voice: "This is the memorial from Dali Temple. Read it carefully for yourself. You owe a huge amount of usury. Now the debt has reached one hundred thousand taels of silver. Yao Shangshu, your salary in this life combined is probably not enough to repay this huge sum of money. You have done such a wrong thing. Not only do you not want to repent, but you even Do you think you are guilty of going the extra mile and trying to reach out to the lonely backyard?"

Yao Shangshu picked up the memorial on the ground, and immediately turned pale after checking it. He murmured: "You...you actually discovered it a long time ago?"

Situ Jin looked coldly at Yao Shangshu, who had a pale face, and said in a cold voice: "Yao Shangshu, you think that no one will notice what you have done. If you can be more calm, Gu Shangshu can turn a blind eye." Eyes, and now you have reached out to the palace, if Gu Ruo doesn't deal with it, do you really think that Gu, the prince, can be manipulated by you?"

Yao Shangshu's legs began to tremble at this moment. The memorial was written in detail. Even the money owed by the gambling house where he gambled was clearly stated.

Even the time was marked in detail, and he finally saw the methods of the prince.

He still dared to speak, so he quickly knelt down and bowed his head and said: "Your Highness, please spare my life. I was distracted for a moment. Please spare my life, Your Highness."

Situ Jin gave him a cold look and said solemnly: "Are you obsessed for a moment?"

Situ Jin said, throwing another memorial at the feet of Yao Shangshu: "This is the memorial handed over by the Western Regions last month. The royal family of the Western Regions requested a marriage, but you did not submit such an important memorial because you were addicted to gambling. If King Jing hadn't mentioned this matter in his letter to Gu, Gu and his father would still not know that you had concealed such a big thing. Now that the Western Regions are doing business with Xia Zhaoguo, King Jing has finally established diplomatic relations. It was almost destroyed by you, you are simply seeking your own death!”

Yao Shangshu picked up the memorial tremblingly and glanced at it hastily. The sweat on his forehead fell like rain. Situ Jin hated such dereliction of duty and accepting bribes. He was really finished this time.

I only heard Situ Jin coldly order: "Yao Shun derelict in his duties, accepted bribes, abused his power, and was removed from the post of Minister of Rites. Dali Temple will immediately find out his guilt and investigate strictly in accordance with the law!"

Yao Shun collapsed on the ground and was quickly taken away. The officials below saw it with their own eyes. They did not expect that Yao Shun was punished so severely by the prince for admonishing the prince to take concubines. They remembered that they had handed him the money they had given him a few days ago. Zhezi couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart. How could anyone dare to speak again.

Situ Jin's eyes swept over the officials one by one, and a cold voice sounded in the palace: "Is there anyone else who wants to choose a concubine for the royal family?"

After hearing this, all the officials knelt on the ground and shouted: "I don't dare..."

Situ Jin stood up, looked down at them from a high position, and said solemnly: "In that case, let's let this matter go. Gu and the Crown Princess are still young and already have children. I heard that some of you have daughters who are of marriageable age. But I haven't said anything about marriage. I know what you are thinking, but having a princess in my harem is enough. I advise you to find a good marriage for your daughter. I don't want what happened to Yao Shangshu to happen again in the court in the future. "

"In addition, His Royal Highness King Jing has received the Princess of the Western Regions and will arrive in the capital soon. The post of Minister of Rites will be taken by Huang Shilang. Time is tight. The Ministry of Rites needs to prepare as soon as possible. The post house must also send people to organize it. Make the princess feel at home.”

When Huang Shilang heard that he had been promoted, he was overjoyed and knelt down to thank him: "I will do my best to entertain the princess well."

"Retreat!"

Seeing that it was finally over, all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief. After all, after so many years as an official, who dares to say that they didn't have any shady things? It seems that in the future, they have to be careful in making mistakes and not say anything that shouldn't be said.

.......

Returning to the East Palace, as soon as he entered the door, Situ Jin asked the servant: "Where is the Crown Princess?"

The servant replied: "The Crown Princess is practicing calligraphy in the room with the young prince!"

Situ Jin hurriedly walked to the backyard and saw Rui'er sitting at the desk and writing seriously. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his little head and saw Situ Jin walking past the window. He quickly put down the pen in his hand. , jumped down from the stool, ran to the door happily, and threw himself into Situ Jin's arms: "Father, father came back so early today!"

Su Ying glanced at the writing on the table, turned to Rui'er and said, "Want to be lazy again? If you can't finish writing these words today, you won't have to eat lunch."

Rui'er muttered: "Mother and concubine don't like Rui'er lately. She always forces Rui'er to write. Rui'er's hands hurt from writing."

As he spoke, he raised his hand in front of Situ Jin, pointed to the red spot where he held the pen, and said, "Father, look, your hand is red."

Situ Jin naturally knew his little trick, and his face darkened: "I met the Tutor yesterday. He said that you have slacked off in your studies recently, and your writing has become more perfunctory. You have not memorized the books that you were asked to memorize. What are you doing?"

Seeing that he had been exposed, Rui'er hurriedly broke away from Situ Jin's arms, fearing that he would be spanked a little later. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I haven't done anything. I'm just a little tired from practicing martial arts recently. I won't do it again in the future." Dare you."

Situ Jin walked up to him, knelt down and looked at him: "My father learned more than you when he was your age. You clamor to protect your mother and concubine every day, and you are so slack. I'm afraid that when you grow up in the future, Nothing will be accomplished, let alone protecting your mother and concubine, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to protect yourself.”

Rui'er lowered her head and said nothing. Su Ying said from the side: "Okay, if you want to play mother-in-law, it's not allowed, but you must do everything you should do before you can go out to play. Come and write quickly."

With Su Ying's permission, Rui'er breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly sat down on the chair, picked up a pen and began to write seriously.

The two of them smiled knowingly when they looked at his serious look.

Muying walked in from the door holding a stack of memorials, cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, today's memorials are all here."

Su Ying was a little surprised. Today's memorials were much less than in the past. She looked at Situ Jin with some doubts, pointed at the pile of memorials and asked: "What trick did your husband use in the court today to make this memorial less?" Most of it.”

Situ Jin stepped forward and said with a smile: "I just asked them to mind their own business. Naturally, there will be fewer memorials for them to mind their own business. I can also relax and spend more time with you and Rui'er."

Su Ying asked: "The gossip you are talking about is the matter they asked you to take a concubine."

"Yeah!" Situ Jin replied casually: "Today is a small punishment but a big warning. Let them know that they should not control things that they shouldn't."
