Tsundere general's peasant wife

Chapter 466 All officials beg for mercy. The Court of the Vegetable Market
"Your Majesty! The minister reconsidered! Your Majesty is not guilty of death, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is extrajudicial!"

"Your Majesty! Your minister reconsidered! Lord Wang has never made a mistake in the Ministry of Accounting for so many years~ I think it is because the subordinates dared to let the genius cause Lord Wang to be wronged, Your Majesty!"

Looking at the ministers who were kneeling and handing out paperwork, Huangfu Xuanhong narrowed his eyes and asked in a slightly raised voice:
"Are there any ministers who want to reconsider?"

Everyone is watching me and watching you again, no one came out this time!In fact, there were not many ministers standing around.
Ji Guanglian looked at these fat ministers with big heads, ears, brains, but inaction, and his face turned red with anger. He even forgot that the emperor was above him, so he stood up and shouted:
"What does it mean that the crime does not warrant death? Do you still want the subordinates to take the blame? Mr. Wang, as the minister of the household department, embezzled the treasury silver, that is not a small amount! If it is really the subordinates, he is not a minister. Come out? Not necessarily! If you really can’t see it, there’s no need to be a minister! Hmph!”

The minister who knelt down and said a word was almost scolded by Ji Buren by pointing at his nose, and suddenly blushed with embarrassment and pointed at Ji Guanglian, speechless.

"you you you"

"What a . . . what a huge faux pas."

"Master Ji has to look at the place when he speaks...the emperor...the emperor is still sitting on the top..."

Ji Guanglian let out a cold snort, rushed forward and knelt down, still saying stiffly:

"Your Majesty! Please forgive me for the crime of making noise in court! It's just that I have objections to the ministers! I have embezzled 40 taels of silver and said that it is not a major crime but a petty crime. In the eyes of the ministers, what is a major crime? Or are you all ministers?" Just like Master Wang, greedy for money, so it is very common for you to be greedy!"

Your lords trembled in fright, why did lord Ji see who bites who... Although they are indeed greedy, can you say this in front of the emperor?

"Master Ji, don't slander me! I'm a clean and good official!"

"Master Ji must speak with evidence! You saw that I was greedy for money, without you, this would be blatant slander!"

"Master Ji is getting old, don't be foolish! You can say that."

Ji Guanglian saw everyone's guilty voice loud and timid, pointed at them and cursed:

"If you don't have a guilty conscience, let the emperor send someone to check your mansion?! If you are not in the same rank as Mr. Wang, why are you pleading so hard for him!"

"you this"

"Enough! Where is my court, take a look at each of them! They are all my scheming ministers! What is the difference between their actions and street thugs!"

"The minister is guilty! The emperor forgives the crime!"

Seeing that the emperor was really angry, all the ministers knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty, so as not to get out of the fish, they would first anger the emperor and listen to it.

If the second prince had been in the past, he would have stood up for reconsideration like Ji Guanglian, but since he heard what his mother and concubine said yesterday, his irritable temper has inexplicably calmed down.

So watching the quarrel in the court hall, I calmly deal with it.

In the end, the emperor looked at the minister of civil and military affairs who was kneeling on the ground, snorted angrily and left without making a sound.

It was not until long after the emperor had left that all the ministers got up and went out together with lively arguments, but without exception, they would flick their sleeves angrily when they passed by Mr. Ji.

The Prime Minister finally walked over from the very beginning, stood beside the elderly Mr. Ji and said with a smile on his face:
"Master Ji is not young anymore! It's time to retire and return to his hometown. I don't know if he will burn paper money for his son and daughter-in-law every Qingming Festival hahahaha" After speaking, he raised his voice and walked away with a wild smile.

A trace of grief flashed in Ji Guanglian's eyes, and he walked up to the second prince with a firm face and said:
"It turns out that I have misjudged the second prince too! You are no different from those who pleaded for Lord Wang! Hmph!" After speaking, he started to walk away.

The second prince said:

"This king has never known that Mr. Ji thinks that this king is someone worthy of entrustment?"

Ji Guanglian: "Hmph!" and left.

The second prince shook his head and laughed:
“What a stubborn old man”

Looking back at the side hall where his father walked, the second prince secretly sighed, why didn't he want to express his thoughts happily, and reconsidered and beheaded Wang Angjie,

But his father and mother concubine taught him that he will be an emperor and not a minister in the future!He must have the heart that the emperor can bear what ordinary people can't, and there are a group of people behind him that he wants to protect, so he can't be willful!He can't afford to lose!

The emperor was alone in the imperial study, only accompanied by Eunuch An.

Randomly flipping through a booklet to intercede for Wang Angjie, Huangfu Xuanhong said with a gloomy expression:
"Aren't these ministers of mine doing anything else? I've never seen them be so active when running an errand. If you say that they have no contact with the Wang family, I won't believe anything!" After speaking, he threw those papers away into the corner.

Eunuch An has been with the emperor for the longest time, so he knows what the emperor is thinking better than anyone else, and he also knows better than anyone else that the emperor has endured what ordinary people can't bear. This royal family is almost inflated.
Huangfu Xuanhong seemed to feel that it was too much to show his emotions, so he immediately adjusted the expression on his face and said in a calm tone again:
"Go and pick up the booklet for me, and then... go to Changle Palace with me!"

Eunuch An paused when he picked up the booklet, and then he pretended not to understand and said:

"It's the emperor!"

In fact, if the emperor doesn't come, the empress is planning to invite someone to ask the emperor to come to her palace.

The eunuch who was talking back and forth yesterday said that his second brother is no longer in prison!If I wait another two days, my second brother will still be alive!
"The Emperor is here!"

When the queen heard that the emperor was coming, she hurriedly put away her thoughts and greeted him with a sad expression.

"Chen and concubine see the emperor!"

Huangfu Xuanhong sat on the top as if he didn't see her bitter face and said:
"I haven't seen you for a while! I'm going to dine at Yinglan today!"

In the past, as long as she didn't go to the Feilong Palace, the queen would be happy to prepare, but now she doesn't have the mood to wait for the emperor to eat or not.

"The emperor's ministers and concubines feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid they won't be able to serve the emperor for dinner"

Huangfu Xuanhong's eyes dimmed undetectably, and he said without changing his expression:

"Oh?! What made my queen so unhappy!?"

When the queen heard the words, she took out her handkerchief and began to cry, but she secretly signaled the nurse beside her to come forward and talk to her.

After Wang Momo received the signal to step forward and see Long Live, she said with a distressed expression for the queen:

"Your Majesty! Ever since I heard that Mr. Wang was imprisoned, this queen can't eat and can't sleep! Seeing this old slave who has washed her face with tears all day long, I really feel distressed."
