Imperial City, Hall of Mental Cultivation
"The humble ministers bow to the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."
Yang Qing followed Suotu calmly and calmly stepped into the door of Hall of Mental Cultivation. When he came to Chu Jinghui, he lifted his robe and knelt down to salute.
Chu Jinghui looked at him condescendingly. "Yang Chengming, do you know your guilt?"
Yang Qing lowered his head, looked at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose. "I am a humble minister, please speak clearly to me, Your Majesty."
Chu Jinghui spoke again, "Fu Bonian, you handled the case extremely well, it really amazed me."
Yang Qing still bowed to the ground. "Your Majesty, the reward is due, these are just the duties that a humble minister should perform!"
Chu Jinghui nodded slightly. "That's right, but let me ask you, you have no interaction with that Fu Bonian, and besides, you have been away from the capital for a long time, why do you know so much about the affairs in the capital?"
Having said this, the expression on Chu Jinghui's face has become serious, and the faint smile before has disappeared.
"Your Majesty, it must be that Lord Yang feels that it is difficult to leave his homeland. If he pays more attention to matters in the capital, he can also take care of the Emperor's worries."
Wei Sizhong, who was standing by the side, lost no time in passing on the sentence.
"Share my worries? It's hard because of his loyalty."
Chu Jinghui said, "It's just that Yang Aiqing worked so hard, is she complaining that I failed to entrust you with important tasks?"
After all, only by staying in the capital and facing the emperor every day can you give full play to your talents.
"Or is it that Yang Aiqing's ambition is not Yan Prefecture?"
"However, I still want to know how many people in this capital are secretly communicating with you?"
Chu Jinghui These words are already a bit harsh.
Yang Qing If he admits it, he admits that he is in a clique for personal gain.
This is considered a felony in Western Chu.
Furthermore, why would a foreign minister have such a wide information network? Come to think of it, this is the ultimate purpose of Chu Jinghui's words.
"Returning to the emperor, this behavior of the humble minister is indeed suspected of exceeding the rules, and it is also guilty of concealing and not repaying."
Listening to Yang Qing's words, Wei Sizhong on the side narrowed his eyes.
Yang Qing said this to mean that he was guilty?
However, based on his observation of this Yang Qing, this person is definitely not a reckless person. On the contrary, he has a calm personality and is almost unbreakable.
There must be something hidden behind his move.
Sure enough, Chu Jinghui was also surprised when he heard what Yang Qing said.
"Please tell me to come and talk to me."
"According to the order!"
Yang Qing responded to Chu Jinghui again, and then continued, "I am paying attention to Fu Bonian, and it is not just a whim."
"So, it was premeditated?"
Compared to the former, Chu Jinghui is more disgusted with the latter's behavior.
Because this move means that Yang Qing has been planning this for a long time.
However, he, the monarch, has always been kept in the dark.
"How dare you rebel! How dare you talk nonsense here?"
Wei Sizhong interjected. "Your Majesty, I think that Yang Chengming has ulterior motives and ignores the power of our Emperor. His heart can be punished!"
It was not just a whim, it had been planned for a long time, and it was carried out in a secretive manner. The meaning of this is self-evident.
When Chu Jinghui heard what Wei Sizhong said, his eyes became increasingly angry. "Yang Chengming, I am waiting for your explanation."
Yang Qing could feel Wei Sizhong pressing against him step by step, but there was always a faint smile on his face.
It seemed that the person being questioned by the emperor at this time was not him.
"To report to your Majesty, I have no choice but to do this."
"You have no choice but to do it? Why?"
If Yang Qing cannot give a reasonable explanation for this matter, Chu Jinghui will definitely not let him go.
Yang Qing What he is doing now is already challenging the authority of the Tianjia. This trend will definitely not last!
"Back then, when Wei Chen's father was still alive, he admired Fu Bonian's talent very much. Of course, he thought that the emperor had a good eye and had found a good horse."
Yang Qing's speech was not fast, but the logic was very clear. "Of course, without Chancellor Wei, the great talent of the dynasty, I think that the emperor might have missed a good minister."
Listening to Yang Qing's words of praise for himself, Wei Sizhong's face High God remained unchanged, but his heart began to stir up quite a stir.
Yang Qing Is this an explanation?
What is the purpose of his blind boasting?
Wei Sizhong is very thoughtful, and when Yang Qing opened his mouth, he already felt something strange.
However, he saw that there was no trace of impatience on Chu Jinghui's face, and he knew that this was not a good opportunity to ridicule him, so he had no choice but to keep silent.
"What if?"
Chu Jinghui's voice is not high, but it is full of majesty.
"However, Wei Chen was still young at that time, so he was dissatisfied with the appreciation of my father and Fu Bonian. He thought that there were many deficient people in the world, and flawless people were almost impossible to see."
"Because of my father, I pay more attention to Master Fu."
"So, what did you see?"
"Master Fu was very energetic back then. Because he was appreciated by the prime minister and the emperor, he wanted to do something great. The minister does not deny this, but he still has doubts about it."
"When Wei Chen was in the capital, he paid attention to Mr. Wei for nearly seven years, and finally found out some of his secrets that were kept secret from outsiders. I wanted to verify what I felt in my heart."
"Unexpectedly, Wei Chen was reused by the emperor and went to Yan Prefecture to serve as Military Governor. Wei Chen thought that it was a long way to go and he didn't know when he would be able to return to his hometown, so he stopped paying attention to Master Fu."
"But who would have thought that when Mr. Fu arrived at Yan Prefecture this time, he asked Weichen to plead guilty without saying a word, and asked Weichen to write a false confession, and threatened that as long as Weichen obeyed his orders, Chancellor Wei would also secretly help."
Wei Sizhong listened to Yang Qing's words, and became more and more frightened. Finally, he was so frightened by Yang Qing's last words that he knelt down with a thud.
"Your Majesty is aware that the veteran has never given such instructions to Fu Bonian. He must have made his own decision."
Chu Jinghui glanced at Wei Sizhong and did not answer. He just looked at Yang Qing and said, "You continue."
Yang Qing nodded and continued, "Weichen's thoughts at that time were the same as Chancellor Wei."
"Chancellor Wei has a high moral integrity and has assisted the emperor for more than ten years. How can he be such a helpless and unscrupulous person?"
"But at that time, I was still in prison. If I didn't obey, I might not be able to survive until the day when my injustice is brought to justice."
"Therefore, I had no choice but to write something against my will on that confession."
"However, how can a humble minister watch this black sheep smear the emperor's reputation? And Chancellor Wei's reputation? That's why he did some tricks on that confession."
Having said this, Yang Qing leaned down to Chu Jinghui again. "The humble minister is guilty, and the crime should not be deceived. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
That confession was submitted to Chu Jinghui as soon as possible because Fu Bonian had long nights and dreams after returning to Beijing.
Chu Jinghui understands the anomalies in the confession provided by Yang Qing.
At this time, he had already believed Yang Qing's words, and his expression High God also tended to soften.
"I already understand my love for you, so just get up."
Yang Qing said, "I thank you, Your Majesty!"
