Practical Life in the Red Mansion

After the news of Zhao Biao's death in prison came out, Feng Duan and Wang Nian immediately entered the palace to plead guilty. In order to avoid suspicion, the two were not allowed to meet in the inner court recently.And ordered Wang Nian to assist Jin Yiwei in investigating the cause of Zhao Biao's death.

Wang Nian knew that he couldn't get rid of the suspicion of assassinating Zhao Biao, and that Feng Duan was very likely to have accepted bribes, but Feng Duan was his housekeeper, and he had to help him get rid of the crime no matter what. The overlord's asylum.

Sure enough, the Supreme Emperor knew that he wanted to protect Feng Duan and Wang Nian, and issued a verbal order, to the effect that: Zhao Biao announced that Feng Duan, a senior scholar of the first university, accepted bribes, and there was no evidence, and there was no evidence for his words. Now Zhao Biao committed suicide in fear of crime, and there is no evidence for his death.The matter of Feng Duan has been understood so far, and no further investigation is allowed.

After the oral order was issued, Cheng Shiwei made a note, pointing out that the case of cheating in the examination, the whole court, the whole country, and all eyes were on it. If Feng Duan was innocent without verification, it would not be convincing. For the sake of the court's prestige, it should be thoroughly Check Feng Duan's acceptance of bribes, make the truth of the fraud case public, and appease the hearts of the people.

The Supreme Emperor was furious after reading the excerpt, and wanted to deal with Cheng Shiwei. The Emperor persuaded him: "Father, think twice, you will try the fraud case, and the people are very angry. If you can't find out, what will the people trust?"

The Supreme Emperor angrily said: "Don't you also listen to Zhao Biao's nonsense?"

"Of course I don't believe it. I believe that Mr. Feng Ge is innocent, but the most important thing now is how to convince the people of the world that Mr. Feng Ge is innocent. I implore my father to issue a decree to thoroughly investigate Mr. Feng Ge and return Feng Mr. Ge is innocent." The emperor begged with his head bowed.

The Supreme Emperor was silent, only the heavy breathing of the Supreme Emperor in the hall, and after a long time the Supreme Emperor said: "I agree, it's just this Cheng Shiwei..." The Supreme Emperor paused to think about how to deal with Cheng Shiwei.

The emperor opened his mouth and said: "If Feng Ge is found out to be innocent, and then deal with Cheng Shiwei, please see that he is a honest minister, loyal and upright, and bypass him first."

Only then did the Supreme Emperor remember that Cheng Shiwei had been promoted to the right deputy governor and censor because he saw Cheng Shiwei's outstanding achievements when he was the governor of Shaanxi, and praised him as a minister of integrity.If I easily deal with this minister who I promoted...

Thinking of this, the Supreme Emperor looked sour and didn't say much, ordered Yao Bingyao Zhongxing, the chief minister of the cabinet, to thoroughly investigate Feng Duan's matter, and ordered him to report the results to him in time.

As soon as the emperor left, Shen Lv handed over the secret document to the Supreme Emperor, saying that all the guards in the prison were members of the Ministry of Punishment, and that the guards were very strict, and no outsiders came in or out.I also pleaded guilty, although I made it clear that someone else killed me and pretended to hang myself, but I couldn't find out who did it, and I attached the statement of the jailer and others.Although Shen Lu claimed that no one could be found to do it, the evidence presented showed that it could only be done by someone in the Ministry of Punishment. The jailer colluded with the confession, so there was no flaw.

The Taishang threw the Zhubi on the ground in a rage, and ordered Wang Nian to temporarily dismiss him, pending investigation.

Yao Bing found it difficult when he received the imperial decree. He is a member of the Supreme Emperor, but he has also helped the new emperor. I hope that the new emperor can support himself because of his knowledgeable Zhishi and giving up the position of chief assistant to Gu Jing. If it wasn't for the fraud case, he would have already handed in the paperwork.As soon as the fraud case came out, he was afraid that the Supreme Emperor would let him handle it, so he said he was sick at home. He thought that those few people would be able to find out, but who knew that there was something wrong with Feng Duan, and only he, the chief assistant, could examine Feng Duan up.

However, the Supreme Emperor used himself only to defend Feng Duan, but if he defended Feng Duan, he would surely offend the new emperor, which was a dilemma.

The grandson Yao Jingxing on the side saw his grandfather frowning, and said, "Grandfather, the Supreme Emperor just asked you to investigate Mr. Feng Ge. As for how to deal with it, it is naturally up to the holy order. Besides, the Supreme Emperor ordered you to hand over the results directly to him alone." Then Whether Feng Duan is innocent or not is not important at all. Yao Bing only needs to find out the matter and only inform the Supreme Emperor. How the Supreme Emperor will deal with Feng Duan is the matter of the Supreme Emperor. Even if the Supreme Emperor let Feng Duan go, the emperor will Yao Bing would not be blamed, after all Yao Bing reported the truth.

Yao Bing listened to his grandson before reacting. He didn't get involved in the fraud case because he saw that there was an emperor in it. Since he dared to let Zhao Biao lead Feng Duan, and Cheng Shiwei attacked Feng Duan and Wang Nian, it represented the Feng Duan did accept bribes, he just needs to let the Supreme Emperor know and believe that Feng Duan accepts bribes.

Yao Bing went to investigate boldly, and arrested Zhao Biao's wife, children and concubines, Feng Duan's personal servant and other servants.Interrogated one by one, it was found that Feng Duan accepted Zhao Biao's bribe, and Feng Duan's Tongfang also confessed many other things.Yao Bing didn't dare to touch his hands with the confession, and asked to enter the palace overnight to present the investigation results of the confession.

Within a few days, Feng Duan submitted a letter to ask him to return to his hometown, but the emperor did not allow him to stay again.As for Wang Nian, the Supreme Emperor issued an edict saying that he was dereliction of duty and ineffective in supervision, so he was punished by dismissal.

The Supreme Emperor believed that Zhao Biao was the main culprit, he was dead, and the rest could be given a lighter punishment, but Hengwang reported that Zuo Tingfang also accepted the note, but when the rough guard saw it, he burned it in a panic and bought it with a lot of money That rough boy.The Supreme Emperor was furious now, and the courtiers he trusted to hand-picked hit him in the face one after another in front of the world.

Chief examiner Sun Jun indulged in fraud and was exiled to the Northwest. Deputy chief examiner Zuo Tingfang and the examiner were sentenced to execution for accepting bribes. Or blame.

The hustle and bustle of Xu Chou's fraud case finally came to an end. As a result, five court officials were dropped, and dozens of others were punished.

When the dust settled, the first snow fell in Beijing since the beginning of winter. Lin Yang looked at the fluttering snowflakes, and sighed in his heart that this huge fraud case still ended with the emperor winning a complete victory. At that time, the Supreme Emperor retired to Shangyang Palace and gave up the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Six cabinet scholars, Yao Bing became an official, Gu Jing was promoted to the first assistant, Cheng Shiwei entered the cabinet, and Feng Duan retired.Liu Sheng was promoted to be the censor of the left capital, and Jiang An was promoted to be the censor of the right deputy governor. So far, Dali Temple and the Inspectorate have been controlled by the emperor. hand.

When Lin Yang was sitting on the railing of the veranda and was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a pair of small hands stuff a snowball into his neck. Lin Yang was so excited that he shivered. He turned his head and saw Daiyu looking at her with a smile. with him.Lin Yang held her hand, and asked with concern: "Why did you go to play in the snow? Are your hands cold?" He rubbed Daiyu's hands while talking.

Daiyu looked at Lin Yang and said, "Brother, what are you thinking? You're so preoccupied." Lin Yang lowered his head and sighed at Daiyu's hand in his own, trying to warm her hand.

Seeing that Lin Yang didn't answer, Daiyu asked again, "Brother, are you sad?" Lin Yang nodded and said, "Those students have studied hard for many years, but they made a wrong step, and their lives were ruined." Daiyu wondered : "Did someone force them to go the wrong way?" Lin Yang shook his head.

Daiyu said: "Since they have studied hard for many years, they naturally understand the way of saints and their own choices. Since they are willing to go the wrong way, then they should bear the corresponding consequences." Lin Yang laughed dumbly: "Yan Yan understands so many."

Daiyu laughed embarrassingly: "My mother said that although I am young, I am also the one who gives orders at home, and I can't change them overnight, so I have to think carefully before saying every word. If I say something wrong, go wrong. The road cannot be changed."

In fact, Jia Min saw that Daiyu didn't like girls, so she specially taught that girls must learn the rules well, especially to protect their boudoir reputation, once it is damaged, it will be lost forever.Lin Yang listened to Daiyu's report, and said with a smile: "Mother is too strict with you. If you follow the rules in everything, it will be too rigid." Daiyu looked at Lin Yang suspiciously.

Lin Yang stretched out his hand and made a grasping motion: "You have to control the rules." Daiyu asked suspiciously: "What does this mean?" "You have to be familiar with the rules so that you can live comfortably above the bottom line .”

Daiyu shook her head: "I still don't understand." Lin Yang patted her on the head: "You gradually understand, now you have to get familiar with it first, and learn the rules carefully. Like an enemy, get familiar with it first and then master it.”

Daiyu laughed, revealing a pair of small pear dimples, tiptoed and patted Lin Yang's head and said: "I know brother, brother, are you still sad?" Lin Yang's heart was warm, Daiyu It was because he was depressed that he was induced to talk so much.

Lin Yang shook his head and said: "I was thinking wrongly. The emperor did not wrong an innocent person, nor let a guilty person go. Everything is deserved, and it is not worthy of others' pity." On the road of scientific research, I understand the hardships involved, so I have so many emotions that I shouldn't have.

Daiyu suddenly covered her mouth, and looked behind Lin Yang with bright eyes. An ominous premonition rose in Lin Yang's heart. Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt a pain in his back. Lin Yang clenched his fists, Looking back, it was indeed Lin Yun who hit him with a snowball, and Lin Yun was holding a second snowball, and was about to continue attacking him.

Lin Yang jumped over the hurdle and walked towards Lin Yun with a sly smile. Lin Yun was not afraid of him, anyway, with his sister around, Lin Yang didn't dare to do anything to him, at most he just wanted to scare him.Lin Yun shouted: "Sister, save me." while running around the yard.

Daiyu on one side saw Lin Yang intentionally scaring Lin Yun and chasing Lin Yun all over the yard, and bent over with a smile.
