Chapter 938: Wu Jinxiu Is Jailed (3)

Things were getting more and more complicated, and the waters were getting deeper!

After reading the memorial.

Wu Jinxiu closed it and walked to the front of the officials. She lifted her official uniform and plopped! “I know my sins!” He knelt on the ground with his head pressed against the ground.

Things had changed too quickly, and the officials had yet to recover from their shock. From Li Yuliang’s attack to the submission of the memorial, Wu Jinxiu took the initiative to plead guilty! What exactly was recorded in the memorial? She was curious, but she didn’t dare to ask.

The Crown Prince really did not want to believe that this was true, but he had already admitted his guilt. He could only accept this fact. No matter how angry he was in his heart, he did not show it on his face. At this time, he had to stand up. No matter what, he had to figure out the reason. He was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid that he could not shoulder the responsibility. Retreating or shirking responsibility was a taboo for a person in power. If this was the case, who would dare to work for him in the future?

Even if this wasn’t good, and even made his father unhappy, he couldn’t retreat!

” Father, what crime did Assistant Minister Wu commit?” He walked down from the imperial platform and stood in front of the officials. He bowed with his hands clasped in front of his chest. freewёbnoνel.com

The Xia Emperor glanced at him expressionlessly before his gaze fell on Li Yuliang. The latter understood and coldly said,” Fifteen years ago, when Wu Jinxiu was the governor of Changping County, she used her official position for personal gain and released the children of the criminal Yang Haowen.”

The Crown Prince was helpless. Although he did not know the specific circumstances of the case, the word “criminal” already explained everything. Wu Jinxiu did not even quibble. Even if she wanted to help, there was nothing she could do.

“The Imperial Censorate, the Court of Judicial Review, and the Ministry of Justice will conduct a joint hearing,” the Xia Emperor said.

The heads of the three departments immediately stood up and accepted the order.

The two Human Sovereign Guards strode forward and were about to take him down.

Zhang Ronghua knew that he shouldn’t stand up at this time. Some things were beyond his control. Although Wu Jinxiu was the Crown Prince’s subordinate, unlike Chen Youcai and Lu Zhantang, they were still friends and got along well. Even if she was in prison, she had to be more dignified, unlike the Human Emperor Guards who had come forward rudely.

He didn’t care even if there were some negative effects. Even if Du Chengming and the others jumped out to impeach him, it didn’t matter. He had to do what he had set his mind on.

“I request that you send Wu Jinxiu to the prison of the Ministry of Justice.”

“Censor Zhang, you want to overstep your boundaries?” Li Yuliang seized the opportunity to attack.

His men jumped out one after another, wanting to pin the crime of Zhang Ronghua’s “overstepping” on him. This crime could be big or small. Once it was confirmed, it would be very unfavorable from the current situation.

Although Du Chengming and Bi Fangjie did not step forward, their people jumped out and seized the opportunity to attack. This included the princes and other political enemies. They were like mad dogs, wanting to knock him down.

Although Pei Caihua didn’t step forward, his men had stood up to confront them. The Emperor had already spoken, and the Imperial Censorate, the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of Justice had all started a trial. As the Left Imperial Censor of the four divisions, Zhang Ronghua’s actions were reasonable.

Chen Youcai, Lu Junxiu, Huo Jingxiu, Xu Xing, Ding Yi, and the others all stepped forward.

For a time, it turned into a confrontation between factions.

The Xia Emperor raised his palm and pressed it down. The noisy court immediately quieted down.” Correct!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Zhang Ronghua thanked him.

With a wave of his hand, two Human Emperor Guards stepped forward. They saw something from the Emperor’s attitude and did not act rudely. When Wu Jinxiu got up from the ground, they each held an arm.

Zhang Ronghua brought them away.

As the matter settled, the court session ended.

In the royal study.

The Xia Emperor was not in a hurry to deal with the memorials. His tensed face relaxed as he took the teacup Wei Shang handed him. He pinched the lid of the teacup and held it casually.” What do you think?” he asked.

“Your Majesty, which matter are you referring to?” Wei Shang bent over and asked cunningly.

Seeing the Xia Emperor glare at him, he pondered for a moment before speaking again.

” Your Highness is very responsible. Qinglin is also not bad. She is loyal.”

The Xia Emperor sipped his tea. It seemed that he was very dissatisfied with this result.

” With Qing Lin stirring up trouble in the Imperial Censorate,” Wei Shang continued,” some people couldn’t sit still anymore. They wanted to fish in troubled waters, or they were desperate.”

The Xia Emperor handed over the teacup and smiled.” Shimin did well. If he didn’t step out just now, I would have been very disappointed. There’s nothing to be afraid of, you have to be responsible, especially for those in power. Today, because of Wu Jinxiu, he retreated. When I hand Xia over to him, things will only get worse. Once he steps back, it will be a bottomless abyss.”

He paused for a moment, reminiscing.

” It’s impossible for a person’s life to be smooth sailing all the time. There will always be times of adversity. It depends on whether you have the determination and perseverance to overcome it.”

” Of course!” Wei Shang flattered without leaving a trace.” Your Majesty, the people you’ve nurtured are naturally extraordinary.”

Emperor Xia continued,” Qing Lin’s reaction was within my expectations. Just as you said, he values friendship and loyalty. It is impossible for him not to show up for such a big matter. Now that Wu Jinxiu is in prison, when he returns, the Imperial Censorate’s show will be even more exciting.”

He pointed at the inkstone.

“Ink grinding.”

..

In the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

Although Zhang Ronghua couldn’t help him get away with his crime, he could arrange a ” good ” cell with a good environment, a spacious floor covered with clean straw, a table, a chair, a teapot, and other things.

He waved his hand, signaling for the Human Emperor Guards to retreat.

“Let’s chat,” he said, pointing at the bench after they had left.

Thanks to Zhang Ronghua, Wu Jinxiu’s official uniform had not been taken off, nor was she wearing a bracelet or anklet. She smiled slightly.” Alright.”

The two of them walked over and sat down across from each other on the bench.

Zhang Ronghua patted the Five Dragons Spirit Controlling Belt and took out a bottle of Heavenly Jade Brew and two wine cups. He poured two cups and handed one over.
