Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.: Chapter 799 What a magical day today is!
Chapter 799 What a magical day today is!
"For what reason, Lord Wu, let me tell you!" Yushi Wen said with a cold look on his face: "Is it possible that Lord Wu has a guilty conscience? When he goes out and encounters the sufferer, he thinks that something has happened and wants to beat him up?"
“You are so impudent, you are the thief!” Mr. Wu’s face turned red with anger and he shouted back.
The emperor was sitting on the dragon throne, and he also guessed that there was some dispute between the Wu family and the Wen family.
However, Yushi Wen inherited the behavior of the great scholar Cui, who was not afraid of power and upright. If there was no solid evidence, he would not bring it up in court today.
Obviously, his father-in-law is definitely not as honest as he appears on the surface, and he may be using his name to bully the people secretly.
Thinking like this, his face became even worse.
Just as he was about to speak, another thin censor stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I also have a memorial."
Everyone looked over subconsciously, feeling extremely surprised and curious.
What a magical day it is today, the ordinary court meeting is really lively!
This thin censor did not let everyone wait, and said directly: "Wen Junyan of Honglu Temple used his power to bully the people and forcefully bought the ink workshops of the people in Anyang, causing the owner of the ink workshop to hang himself.
“Anyang County Magistrate Hu Dongsheng and Wen Qinglin and Wen Yushi were classmates. Hu County Magistrate helped suppress the matter for personal gain, so that the Mofang master and his family had no way to redress their grievances.
“Everyone knows about this incident in the local area. It has damaged the prestige of the government. It is really a heinous crime. I ask the emperor to clearly understand and thoroughly investigate Wen Junyan’s crimes of oppressing the people and Wen Qinglin and Hu Dongsheng’s cover-up.”
The courtiers were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths when they heard it from beginning to end.
This is really true, the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind.
As soon as Yushi Wen took action against the Wu family, someone jumped out and sued the Wen family as well...
Winter has not yet completely arrived. Are you planning to dip the candied haws in the court? !
The emperor also subconsciously straightened his back and turned cold.
Wen Junyan was still watching the play, but the flames of war burned him out of nowhere.
Thinking of the few boxes of newly delivered ink sticks in the study room, beads of sweat fell from his forehead.
In recent years, the second brother has been very popular in the court, but he, the fourth-rank official of Honglu Temple, is as dispensable as a shadow.
He was extremely depressed, so he would occasionally take a long vacation and go for a walk outside.
Six months ago, he went to Anyang County in the south and took a fancy to an ink shop. He wanted to buy it, but the owner said it was a family-owned craft and refused to sell it at any price.
In a fit of anger, he used some tricks to force the owner of Mofang to death, and then the orphans and widowers of that family sued the county government.
He went to Anyang County to visit the government office and wanted to make some inquiries, only to find out that the county magistrate was a classmate and friend of his second brother, and he often came in and out of his home back then.
As a result, things immediately went much smoother.
The county magistrate came forward and he provided the money, and finally Mofang fell into his hands.
The wife and children of the former owner of Mofang swallowed their anger and returned to their hometown...
Everything was done perfectly, without any mistakes or omissions.
Moreover, almost every household in Xindu has done this!
Of the many shops and farms outside the city, how many of their original owners were willing to sell their property to “outsiders”?
He just took over a small ink shop. Why was it discovered again after such a long time? !
Wen Junyan's legs weakened and he almost rolled out of the queue. He knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty, I am wronged!
"I did buy an ink shop before, but it is a legitimate business and there is absolutely no such thing as killing someone!"
Before the emperor could speak, the thin censor spoke again.
"Lord Wen, are you saying that I have framed you? I have no grievances against Lord Wen, so why should I wrongly accuse you?"
These words sound so familiar!
This is what Yushi Wen asked Mr. Wu just now.
It didn’t take half a minute to make a cup of tea, but it was returned!
Wen Junyan's eyes were as wide as those of a cow, and he looked at his brother fiercely, wishing he could eat him alive. Over the years, the family has not borrowed any help from him, but now because he offended others, he was retaliated at the speed of light!
Master Wu looked at the courtiers in confusion, not knowing who was helping at such a critical moment, but he was still extremely happy and proud in his heart.
He sneered and asked Censor Wen, "Mr. Wen, as Censor, you have received favor from the emperor, but your family has made such a big mistake. How can you stand here and accuse me of unfounded charges?"
It's a pity that Yushi Wen's expression didn't change at all.
He saluted directly to the emperor on the dragon throne and said frankly: "Your Majesty, I am the censor of Tianwu, and my duty is to maintain the majesty of Tianwu's laws and maintain the integrity and fairness of the court.
“I impeached the Wu family because the Wu family did make mistakes and should be punished, not because of personal grudges.
“In addition, I have severed all ties with the Wen family a few years ago, except for the genealogy, and joined the Cui family. Now that I am the Cui family’s son-in-law, I cannot manage the Wen family, nor am I qualified to do so.
“If Mr. Wen really forcibly buys people’s Mofang and causes people to die unjustly, he should be investigated carefully and punished according to the law.
"The so-called prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The Wen family is no exception, and the Wu family is no exception!"
His words were loud and upright, and the emperor and some old ministers nodded lightly.
That’s how a censor should be!
Monitor the affairs of the world, speak out for injustice at all times, and be fearless!
The skinny censor felt a little guilty and subconsciously shrank his neck.
Mr. Wu is also anxious and frightened.
Could it be. Even if the reinforcements came to drag the Wen family into trouble, couldn't they stop Yu Shi Wen from attacking the Wu family?
Wen Junyan was so angry that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood!
His brain suddenly twitched and he wanted to scold his brother, but in the end, an official from the Ministry of Personnel stood up.
“Your Majesty, the former Japanese minister received an official document from Anyang County, and the Anyang County Magistrate reported that Wen Junyan of Honglu Temple forcibly bought the Mofang, causing the unjust death of the people. The Anyang County Magistrate has investigated for several months, and now all the witnesses and material evidence are available.
“But my old illness relapsed, and I was delayed for two days without writing a memorial. I didn’t expect that this matter would be involved today…
“It was all my fault for asking the emperor to punish me, and it almost caused an innocent and good official like Anyang County Magistrate to be charged with covering up..."
After saying this, he knelt down with guilt on his face.
The whole court fell completely silent because of a few words from this official.
The monarch and his ministers, a total of a hundred people together, seemed to be tossed up and down in the wind and waves, and were once thrown to the beach.
To be honest, those who are less intelligent still haven’t figured it out yet!
Yushi Wen sued the Wu family.
Another censor sued the Wen family.
The Wu family is crying out for injustice!
The Wen family is crying out for injustice!
The Ministry of Civil Affairs came forward to pick out the Anyang County magistrate who was involved...
But the queen’s own father couldn’t pick it out!
Brother Wen Yushi couldn’t pick it out!
"Snapped!"
The emperor couldn't bear it anymore. He slapped the table with a stern expression and yelled loudly, "How outrageous! What a mess you have made of a fine court!"
All the courtiers, regardless of their thoughts, immediately knelt down and were extremely submissive.
The emperor took a deep breath and ordered to cut the knot quickly: "The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple jointly investigated Wu Jiaqiang's robbery of women and occupation of people's fields and Wen Junyan's forced purchase of Mofang, and reported it as soon as possible.
“I want to know the truth. If anyone conceals it for personal gain, he will be punished with the same crime!
“In addition, all the personnel involved in the case have been suspended from their posts and are waiting for the results of the investigation to be dealt with together!”
