After rebirth, I became a national teacher

At the court meeting on the second day, Emperor Yong'an announced Liang Bao's secret memorial in front of all his ministers, stating that he had long suspected Tan Song and had specially sent people to investigate.

Now that some evidence has been found, Tan Song should be removed from office and imprisoned, and the Imperial Household Department of the Southern Capital and the Dali Temple of the Capital should jointly send people to investigate the case.

Zheng Yuannai, despite the pressure from his direct superior Tan Song, killed corrupt officials and spies and rescued the suffering military households. He lived up to the emperor's trust and should be rewarded with another 1,000 taels of gold on top of the original reward.

All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.

No one expected that Emperor Yong'an would suddenly investigate and punish Tan Song, the commander-in-chief of Nanzhili, whom he once trusted very much.

It seems that when Liang Bao was sent to Nandu, he had already started investigating Tan Song.

And Zheng Yuannai was also a wise move by Emperor Yong'an.

Of course, smart people also suspected that this was deliberately designed by Emperor Yong'an in order to wash away the stigma brought by the natural disaster.

However, the victory report from the Ministry of War had only arrived five days ago. If Emperor Yong'an had deliberately arranged this, there would not have been enough time.

In five days, even if the messenger ran a hundred horses to death, he would not be able to travel back and forth from the Southern Capital to the capital.

Not to mention, Liang Bao's secret memorial also included the account books of the spies' mansions, which really seemed like the investigation had already begun.

Among all the people, only the Minister of Rites Yuan Songbo was confused at first, but then an idea flashed in his mind.

(The previous story about Yuan Songbo's resignation has been changed. After careful consideration, with his mental fortitude, he should not back down easily, so it became "The king wants the minister to leave, but the minister refuses to leave")

Zheng Yuannai first became the Lieutenant General of Songhu because he led the disciples of Cihang Temple to kill more than a hundred Japanese pirates.

There is a shadow of gods in this battle.

After decisively killing the spy Qianhu and becoming completely hostile to the commander-in-chief Tan Song, the commander-in-chief was about to be retaliated against and soon fell into bad luck.

The eunuch Liang Bao changed his style of colluding with local officials and stepped forward to expose Tan Song, who had a strong background.

This layout style looks like a certain temple master.

Although no one knew what her intentions were, Emperor Yong'an had obviously entered the game for the sake of his reputation.

And eliminating Tan Song was indeed to eliminate harm to the military and civilians of Nanzhili.

Thinking of this, Yuan Songbo was the first to stand up and praised sincerely:

"Your Majesty loves the people like his own children, and has good intentions!"

If Emperor Yong'an is willing to continue doing such good things that benefit the country and the people, and he wants to praise and compliment him, then it is not a bad idea for him to praise him.

Emperor Yong'an looked at Yuan Songbo's face, which still showed some surprise but was full of admiration, and he couldn't help feeling full of satisfaction and sense of accomplishment in his heart.

This stubborn old man actually had a day when he truly admired and praised him!

His strategy of taking advantage of the situation was truly brilliant!

Even Yuan Songbo spoke out in praise, let alone the others.

In contrast, the voices of the Tan family and their relatives and friends seeking mercy and justice were completely ignored.

After the court session, Emperor Yong'an couldn't wait to share the good news with Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi.

"My beloved, do you know that the stubborn old man Yuan Songbo actually praised me sincerely today?"

When Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi heard this, her heart sank.

That old scoundrel Yuan Songbo was the culprit who reported her brother-in-law, causing the Jingnan Marquis's title to be stripped and he was imprisoned for half a year.

She never forgot this account.

In the past, Your Majesty also disliked Yuan Songbo.

Now he was so happy because Yuan Songbo praised him. This was not a good sign.

Yuan Songbo has always had an excellent reputation, so she naturally would not show any hatred or disgust towards him.

She adjusted her expression and smiled nonchalantly:

"After all, Minister Yuan is a die-hard fan of the late Empress Dowager's party. If he can praise you, it must be that Your Majesty has done something extraordinary, so he has to praise you."
