Chapter 491 You Can't Help

Just when the civil and military officials in the court were inexplicably frightened, Meng Yi, the tycoon in charge of the Supervision Province, was obviously not satisfied with just stepping on Zhao Gao to death, so after Zhao Gao was dragged away, Jiang Heng, Yu Tong and Yan Le were also taken away, other officials in the Supervision Province also began to take action.

"Your Majesty, I impeach the Grand servant Chen Gui. This person has been colluding with Zhao Gao..." The Censor Gao Xiang took out a stack of hemp pulp and stood up to report.

"Your Majesty, I impeach Sima Bao, the chief of the Criminal Prison Office of the Ministry of Justice, and I did not strictly supervise the prison department of his subordinates, and tampered with the order of private relocation..." Feng Jie, the chief censor, stood up.

"Your Majesty, I impeach Zhong Liguang, the head of the Ministry of Rites, and made friends with Zhao Gao in an attempt to make a ill-gotten plan..."

"Your Majesty, I impeach Xu Nian, the inner secretary of the Shaofu, and the improper ruler led to Zhao Zhe's disaster in the harem..."

"Your Majesty, I impeach..."

In just half an hour, all the supervisory officials who could stand in court almost went all out. After their boss moved to Zhao Gao, they jumped out together. They were prepared and took out stacks of hemp pulp and paper, and began to impeach the targets they had already arranged for themselves.

At this time, Qin Shihuang's angry mood gradually calmed down. While looking at the impeachment memorials that were constantly being presented, his face kept twitching gently.

At this time, he also understood that all this today was almost out of his control. The Provincial Supervision Bureau was well prepared to catch all the officials involved with Zhao Gao in one place. Moreover, Meng Yi had been planning this matter secretly for a long time behind his back. At this moment, Qin Shihuang was a little dizzy and wanted to burn these impeachment memorials in a fire, but he had to grit his teeth and finish reading them next to him.

These impeachment memorials are not targeting ordinary officials, but officials of fourth rank or above who can stand in the court at this time.

All the impeached officials were frightened and their faces were pale and their souls were gone. Many people kept looking at the standing censors in horror with chills and horror.

"Mengqing, how should I deal with these officials!" Qin Shihuang rubbed his temples and looked at Meng Yi.

"Your Majesty, just deal with it according to the law!" Meng Yi replied respectfully.

"Laws...Laws, if the law is useful, how could the disaster today have occurred!" Qin Shihuang sighed with a slightly tired face, and after a while of silence, he waved his hand and said, "Come, please arrest Chen Gui, Zhong Li Guang, Sima Bao, Xu Nian..."

As a large group of imperial guards rushed into the hall and carried out the ministers who were usually high and powerful, the entire hall seemed to have many seats empty.

These impeached officials may not be involved with Zhao Gao, but after all, they are still more or less involved. Especially the officials of the Ministry of Rites, who are both involved with Zhao Gao almost every day from top to bottom, either discussing government affairs or having fun. Therefore, almost all those who are not allowed are arrested.

When the morning court hall became quiet, the morning court time had passed.

"Your Majesty, the old minister conceals Zhao Zhe's affairs, please punish him!" Wang Jian, who had been sitting on his own chair and witnessing the great change in the court, stood up again to apologize.

"The general is so serious. Please go back to your house for the time being. This matter has nothing to do with the general!" Qin Shihuang waved his hand and stood up to show his respect.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, I'm for your forgiveness!" Wang Jian still breathed a sigh of relief, then walked to Wang Qingxiu, looked at his granddaughter's thin cheeks, nodded slightly, and then strode away.

Wang Qingxiu suppressed the sadness in his heart and watched the old figure who had cared for and loved him since childhood, leaving the Great Qin Army God. His eyes were slightly red, and two lines of clear tears rolled down instantly.

At this time, the civil and military ministers in the court remembered that the initiator of today's incident was Princess Qingning.

At this time, Qin Shihuang also looked on Wang Qingxiu, and his tone became much gentler: "Qingning, the Marquis of Qinghe asked me to marry you in front of the civil and military officials of the court. I have agreed. You go back to the palace to make some preparations first. When I arrange government affairs, I will choose an auspicious day to get you married!"

"Thank you, Father!" Wang Qingxiu seemed to cry with joy, and his star eyes fell on Chen Xu for a long time before he bowed and left the hall.

At this moment, this sudden change in the court finally came to a big curtain.

At this time, the people standing in the hall were no longer concerned, because they had been arrested, and the more than ten vacancies of the second, third and fourth ranks left behind need to be filled. The arrests of these officials, pulled out radishes and brought out mud, were unknown to many middle and low-level officials in Xianyang who were involved in it and were arrested and imprisoned. Therefore, this time the court turmoil will be like a major blood change, a large number of new faces will be added again. In these positions, the officials of the three provinces and six ministries will naturally compete and balance again, and in the end they will gain.

Chen Xu was not very concerned about the struggles in the court, but since he had the opportunity, Chen Xu naturally would not give up. After the court was dispersed, he rushed to the newspaper office to gather Chen Ping and others and asked them if they would like to be an official. Unexpectedly, the answer was unexpected.

At that time, Chen Ping was not recommended by anyone and wanted to restore the Great Wei Dynasty, so he lived a poor life. The purpose of joining Chen Xu was not only to make a living, but to show his own knowledge that he would be the best in the court one day. However, since he opened a newspaper, Chen Ping found that he had no interest in becoming an official, and the joy brought by the newspaper was like taking drugs, which made him addicted.

Therefore, Chen Ping was the first to reject Chen Xu's suggestion, "Mr. Marquis, Ping only wants to be the general secretary of the newspaper. I think newspapers are the best place for me to perform!"

"Where are you guys?" Chen Xu looked at Qiu Cheng, Fu An and others.

"Marty, I don't want to be a small official of the sixth rank and seventh rank. It's better to be free in the newspaper office. Although I'm tired, I feel extremely comfortable!" Fu An made a statement in the second sentence.

"So too. When I see the new newspaper printed out, I am so excited that I can't sleep. I'll listen to the quarrels and discussions of students outside. It makes me even more excited. What a meaning to be a small official? It's only a few dozen stones of official rank in a month, and it's not as much as the newspaper's bonus..."

Almost all of a group of editors and editors expressed their unwillingness to be a small official in the government office, which gave Chen Xu a headache.

Then he had to expand the scope of the opinions and found more than a dozen people such as editors, school officials, reporters, etc. who performed better on weekdays. After some persuasion, some people finally gave up the generous rewards of the newspaper office and were willing to become officials. So Chen Xu wrote a memorandum and sent it directly to Feng Quji, the Prime Minister of the Shangshu Province.

These people were originally talented people who read poetry and books. They usually stayed in Xianyang. As long as someone recommended them, they would be arranged to be a small official of the sixth and seventh rank in various government offices. Moreover, the Hou of Qinghe personally recommended him. I think the Ministry of Personnel and Feng Quji, who is in charge of the sixth ministries, would definitely not refuse, because there were too many pits that needed to be filled this time. In time, when these people slowly climbed up, Chen Xu had a group of subordinates shaking flags and shouting, and the newspaper office was now on the right track, and just gathered a group of people.

After finishing this, Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief and took the bus back home.

This time, he was completely killed by Zhao Gao, which finally made him feel relieved. Zhao Gao's death will inevitably completely change the direction of the Qin Dynasty and have turned to another almost irreversible road.

But what gave Chen Xu a headache was the marriage of Wang Qingxiu.

Because he hasn't told anyone in the family about this.

Not only did my mother, Chen Jiang, not know, but also Shui Qingrou, who had just married into the house.

How should I speak when I get home?

Chen Xu grabbed his hair all the way.

...

Today's huge changes in the court are like a hurricane sweeping across Xianyang again.

The Ministry of Rites ordered Zhao Gao to instruct his servants to kill more than 100 people, communicate with the rebels to burn the Nanyang Cang, frame the Qinghe Hou, and have some rebellious actions. Although no one knew what rebellious actions Zhao Gao had, it can be seen from the emperor's anger in the court that Zhao Gao was already cold.

The three tribes of Cheli were abandoned by the Shiyi tribes. This was the second time that the Qin King had committed such an inhumane punishment after he officially ascended the throne.

In addition to Zhao Gao, more than a dozen third-rank and fourth-rank officials, including Dianke Taipu, were arrested and imprisoned, while those who were implicated in the fifth-rank, six, seven-rank, eight-rank, middle- and low-rank officials were probably implicated. With the issuance of countless orders by the Ministry of Justice and the Supervision Province, the lieutenant and imperial guards moved in full swing, and broke into the palaces of countless officials with sharp blades and began to search. Suddenly, the entire Xianyang officialdom was in panic.

But these were not of interest to a certain marquis.

In the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion, the Qinghe Marquis, who usually has a peaceful personality and smiles when he sees everyone, has been depressed after returning to the mansion. He frowned and looked at anyone who is too lazy to care about it. After locking himself in the room for a long time, someone asked someone to find Yu Wuya. He couldn't find anyone to discuss this matter, so he wanted to listen to Yu Wuya's opinions first.

"My benefactor, you... are you really going to marry Princess Qingning, and you are still in the court just now asking the emperor for marriage in front of all civil and military officials?" Yu Wuya was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and finally asked with a stuttering question.

"Um!"

"My benefactor, I'm confused!" Yu Wuya jumped up and circled Chen Xu like a big horse monkey and said anxiously: "My benefactor, I told you in the morning that that woman will not live long, and you...you will be in a bad mood for marrying her..."

"You are a person who is cultivating and asking questions, why are you afraid of bad luck? Besides, the Tao follows nature. There must be death...Diet... Do you think she really won't live long?" Chen Xu suddenly grabbed Yu Wuya's arm and asked with a serious face.

"My benefactor, Wuya will definitely not read it wrong this time. The method of severing the phase of the Twelve Divine Palaces is very accurate..."

"Forget it, I shouldn't tell you about this. You can't help at all!" Chen Xu sighed and said outside the window, "I think she looks very good in the court today. How could she die? I'd better go and talk to Qingrou..."

"Mr. Marquis~ Hurry up, someone from the palace summoned you, saying that there was an urgent matter to summon you into the palace!" The guard and manager hurriedly ran in to report.
