Bianjing.

Chongzheng Hall.

Since the drought this year, Zhao Zhen issued an imperial edict for three sins and removed himself from the main hall as a sign to heaven as punishment for himself, so he held court meetings in Chongzheng Hall during these times.

Zhao Zhen was sitting on top of him, and the other officials were listed below him. Today's morning court seemed a bit unusual from the beginning.

Eunuch Zhili had just said: "If you have something to do, please leave the court if you have nothing to do," someone stood up and shouted loudly: "I have my own book to start the memorial!"

Zhao Zhen took a closer look and saw that it was Liu Shi, a member of the civil service department and a censor and miscellaneous officer.

Liu Shi is Liu Neiquan who succeeded Zhang Heng before.

Zhang Heng stood at the back and glanced at the sound, frowning slightly.

The imperial censor's announcement is always unusual.

Sure enough, Liu Shi said loudly: "Please dismiss Xianggong Jia!..."

As soon as these words came out, the entire Chongzheng Hall was in an uproar.

Eunuch Zhili said "Quiet" continuously, and then smashed the whip so that the sound became lower, but there was still a buzzing sound.

Liu Shi's voice was so loud that it spread throughout the entire Chongzheng Hall: "...During the drought at the beginning of the year, Your Majesty issued an edict to thank God for his sins. This is unreasonable. It is the right way to punish the Three Gods when disaster strikes.

However, His Majesty was magnanimous and gave Xianggong Jia a chance to atone for his sins, and asked Xianggong Jia to be responsible for disaster relief. But now there are refugees everywhere, the price of food has doubled again and again, and the disaster in Taiyuan Prefecture is the most serious. Now people are eating each other.

I have heard that there are now a large number of refugees, dozens or millions, coming together towards Bianjing. I am afraid that they will arrive in the near future and will flood into Bianjing together. Bianjing will be in chaos and may even cause a civil commotion!

I have long heard that Xianggong Jia extorted a lot of money from various departments, saying that it was used for disaster relief, but now that the disaster relief is not being done, Xianggong Jia should be dismissed as the prime minister to atone for his sins!"

Liu Shi's voice spread clearly throughout the Chongzheng Hall, making those who heard it change their expressions.

Just as Liu Shi finished speaking, another imperial censor came out, lamenting Jia Changchao's inability to provide disaster relief, improper handling of affairs, etc., and demanded that Jia Changchao be dismissed as prime minister immediately.

When Jia Changchao was impeached, he immediately took off his official hat to avoid suspicion.

But the firepower did not stop because of this. People kept coming out to echo the request to withdraw Jia Changchao's phase. Just when the situation was about to take shape, Zhang Heng stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, I have my own instructions!"

All civil and military officials looked at Zhang Heng.

Zhao Zhen looked at Zhang Heng and said, "Qing Zhang, please speak."

Zhang Heng said loudly: "I am in charge of the household affairs of Zhongshu Zhiyuan, and I am the main person in charge of this disaster relief. During the disaster relief, I accidentally discovered that there are important officials in the imperial court who are plotting to rebel, and they have already taken action!"

Zhang Heng's words are not surprising and he will never stop dying.

"Rebellion!" someone exclaimed.

Zhao Zhen was also frightened and said: "Zhang Qing, please don't talk nonsense. The important officials of the imperial court rebelled. This is a big event!"

The temples of Ding Xi, the political counselor, were beating sharply. After hearing Zhang Heng's words, he felt nervous in his heart. He opened his mouth and scolded: "Zhang Heng, don't say such nonsense. The crime of treason is one of the three major crimes. Don't do it."

You talk nonsense and ruin other people’s reputations!”

Zhang Heng looked at Ding Xi and said: "Ding Shenzheng, why are you so anxious? I haven't said that you are treasonous. Now you are jumping out to accuse me. Is there something wrong in your heart?"

Ding Xi was furious and shouted: "Your Majesty! Mr. Zhang Heng has insulted the minister in front of you. I ask your Majesty to expel him from the Chongzheng Palace!"

Zhang Heng immediately said: "Ding Shenzheng, you, together with Song Shenzheng, Xia Jinglue and others, hoarded goods among the people, manipulated food prices, annexed wantonly, and expelled the refugees to Bianjing, intending to force the people to rebel and create opportunities for you to rebel.

Do you admit these things or not?"
