Chapter 226 How can a general have a good future?
Dali Temple is by no means a leisurely place, it is very busy up and down. Unfortunate things happen one after another.
Jiang Zhao walked in from the outside: "Sir, this is the confession provided by the Ministry of Punishment after interrogating Zhou Zhangping."
Cui Yun continued to look through the files without any intention of picking them up. He just said indifferently: "Zhou Zhangping is the prefect of Hengzhou. No one can ignore his achievements. He is brave and resourceful. But he is not smooth and salty.
If you go ahead, you will only accept death."
This kind of person is too stubborn and is the easiest to offend others in the officialdom. But Cui Yun doesn't believe that he bullies the people and exploits the people.
As he spoke, he lowered his head and smiled sarcastically.
"Guess, is he offending the fourth prince this time or the one from the East Palace?"
Jiang Zhao didn't dare to guess.
The fourth prince and the prince are all insidious and cunning people.
Jiang Zhao: "The Ministry of Punishment has put the person in jail."
Cui Yun paused, as if he had heard something ridiculous.
"Without Dali Temple's approval for review, who would give the Ministry of Punishment the courage?"
"Sir." The temple is reporting something.
"We'll talk about it later." Cui Yun dropped this sentence without hesitation and walked out with a sullen face.
Si Zheng and Jiang Zhao were left looking at each other in confusion.
"What's going on here?"
Jiang Zhao was also holding back his anger. After the Zhongchu case, the prince did not dare to vent his anger on Cui Yun, so he often refused to give face to the Minister of Punishment.
Furthermore, his son committed a crime and was slapped with a slap in the face by Cui Yun in accordance with the law. He is still lying at home.
Therefore, the Minister of Punishment has a deep grudge against Dali Temple. There was a lot of clamor over there during this period. The Shangshu of the Punishment Department also intended to make a fuss about the Xuan family's affairs last time.
In the end, Shu Yushi, who looked down on the Chong family the most and valued the rules the most, scolded him bloody in front of Emperor Geng.
——How can you openly express your grievance against the Chong family? His demotion was due to his lack of moral integrity and lack of ability to fulfill his duties. It was an order personally given by the official. Do you have any opinion? If it is such a grievance, why not bring justice to the Qian family?
If his legitimate daughter marries him, will he cause harm to him?
Therefore, the Minister of Punishment openly and secretly caused trouble to Dali Temple.
In the past, Cui Yun had been too lazy to care.
But they adults don't have the temperament of clay figures.
Zhou Zhangping was the prefect, and the officials were furious about this case and personally ordered the three departments to investigate. The Minister of Punishment could do this. It was nothing more than a deliberate act.
If this matter gets serious, Dali Temple will also suffer a loss. After all, the confession and the necessary procedures have been taken away by the Criminal Department. He detained this person in advance to sympathize with the suffering of the people.
There are always excuses and reasons. And these are the benevolence that Emperor Geng cares about most.
Jiang Zhao: "I'll probably go to the Ministry of Punishment and ask the old man. If he is so capable, why not give him the position of Minister of Dali Temple?"
Si Zheng was happy at the moment: "No, what's the point of letting him be the minister of Dali Temple? I don't want to see his old face all day long, bah, what the hell! If he really has the ability, why don't he take over Dali Temple all by himself?"
The Procuratorate has all been demolished, leaving the Criminal Department alone to do evil."
At this moment, it was clear and headed back and forth.
"Master Jiang."
"Our master has something to do at the moment, so the Ministry of Criminal Justice has to ask you to make a trip in person. Release Mr. Zhou on bail, and you can send him to the Metropolitan Procuratorate at your own convenience."
Jiang Zhao:……
I understand, Cui Yun didn't want to care about Zhou Zhangping's troubles, but he didn't want to be influenced by the Ministry of Punishment. He turned to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
In the same way, the Ministry of Punishment receives punishments from all over the world, the Procuratorate inspects them, and the Dali Temple refutes them. In the three departments of law, they restrain each other.
Jiang Zhao subconsciously thought that Cui Yun was busy with more important things.
He didn't know that Cui Yun just went to the Yixiantian Restaurant to pick someone up.
Here, Cui Yun has just entered the elegant room.
"Cui Hou."
Cui Yun looked over and saw Xie Xun, who had been pretending to be ill for half a month. He was standing in front of the window and wiping the sword in his hand. Under the light, the surface of the sword glowed slightly white.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xie Xun sheathed his sword.
The girl on the table was sleeping soundly. Cui Yun's eyes paused on Shen Hua for a moment, and then he heard Xie Xun's warm voice.
"The Third Prince has also notified you. Since you are here, I will go back."
"etc."
Cui Yun called people to stop.
He saw that Shen Hua's face was red, and he stepped forward to check for her pulse. He felt relieved when he saw that there was no other abnormality.
"The fifth princess estimates that the sedan and chariot will enter Shengjing in the next two days tomorrow. I'm afraid you won't be able to escape. If you become a prince-in-law, I'm afraid that your fame will be gone and you will no longer be able to fight on the battlefield."
Consorts are not allowed to enter officialdom.
When Xie Xun heard this, his tone was extremely casual.
"Marquis Cui woke me up."
"On the battlefield, swords and swords are flashing. If you can't keep them together, you will be dead in the blink of an eye. This is a way to stay in Shengjing for a long time."
Cui Yun looked calm.
But he didn't believe it.
Xie Xun is a smart man who marries a princess and is willing to be mediocre.
Xie Xun suddenly said meaningfully: "How can a military general have a good future? What does Cui Hou think?"
Cui Yun squinted his eyes and looked over sharply.
No one in the world is more qualified than him to respond to this sentence.
Xie Xun did not hide or evade, and met Cui Yun's eyes openly.
There was no temptation, and there was no hostility. It was just like a casual sentence, but the two best men in Shengjing reached a consensus on this conclusion.
He stared at Xie Xun for a moment, his eyes turned calm, and the man said without emotion: "That's right, so what if the military commander is brave and good? The sky is about to fall, and the glory of his life will be annihilated."
It is the emperor's empire that he fights to the death to protect.
After he died for his country, his family was heartbroken.
Just like Cui Bai, what is he doing?
To leave behind orphans and widows?
Is it because Cui Rong has no father and Qiao Si has no husband?
If you can't take care of your own family, why should you take care of the people of the world?
Prince, the fourth prince is playing the trick of loving the people as his own sons, why don't you see them go to the battlefield?
Because, are they valuable?
Xie Xun's peripheral vision fell on Shen Hua.
He said: "My articles are also very good, and Cui Hou's minister of Dali Temple is very reliable. What kind of civil servant do you think I am suitable for in the DPRK?"
Cui Yun didn't think he was cheating. The officialdom was boring and it was time to add some color.
"Civil officials are showing off their talents."
Cui Yun's tone was calm, and he asked steadily: "What is the position of the Minister of Punishment?"
The sound of footsteps approaching from far away was heard outside, and the two of them stopped talking in tacit agreement, but after a while, someone knocked on the door.
Ji Li entered cautiously.
He still looked like he remembered, with his head pressed so low that he couldn't stand straight, and he looked particularly petty.
Seeing the two people standing in the room, Ji Qi subconsciously rubbed the hem of her clothes.
"I...I'm here to pick you up."
Cui Yun lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Xie Xun said gently: "Ms. Wei is right here."
Ji Li nodded, and he stepped forward and hugged the drunk Wei Yingying into his arms. Then he looked at Cui Yun, who was relatively familiar, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll leave first."
"Third Prince, walk slowly." The man's voice was cold and unparalleled.
Ji Li buried his head and hurried out. He fled the restaurant out of place. After getting on the carriage, the curtains were closed and Ji Li lowered his head to see Wei Yingying.
He said.
"It's really...troublesome."
Here, Cui Yun didn't want to stay for long, he was about to take Shen Hua away.
Xie Xun: "It would be better if Marquis Cui brought Lady Yan along with him——"
Cui Yun interrupted.
"Ms. Yan, I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, and take my leave."
