Chapter 233: Court Discussion

"Your Highness is so complimentary. We just happened to meet each other. I don't know the general until my wife tells me about it. Otherwise, I can't make arrangements in advance."

It was indeed Du Jingyi's credit. Maybe he would learn about it some time later, but not so quickly. Not only did he get Shang Sanlang out in advance, but he also ensnared the Jin family.

I have to say that this stupid son of Jin Shangshu had tricked the Jin family once before, and now he did it again.

Breaking into private houses, robbing people's property, and killing people's lives. In addition, he had previously raised funds to frame the sons of many officials. No matter what the crime was, it was no small matter.

Not to mention anything else, Shangshu of Jin will also be charged with not educating his children. If he is accused of being forced to rebel by the people, I don't know if the four princes and his party can withstand it.

Thinking of this, the prince and Mr. Wen smiled more shrewdly than the other, while Shang Ji was somewhat calm about these hidden things.

"You are a wonderful wife. I see that you are getting better and better every day. When your child is born, I will definitely reward you well."

For the merits of Du Jingyi and the Du family, the prince could not openly reward them, but using the excuse of having a son, the reward could be big or small.

And Shang Ji did not refuse this. After all, for his wife, being able to gain more face in front of the prince would also give her more help and benefits when she gets along with other wives in the back house.

The night is approaching, and the silence is like a canvas splashed with ink, and there are many hidden thoughts and actions hidden behind it.

The next day, while the young man of the Jin family was still sleeping, he received a message.

"died?"

"It's dead. The four Du family members all came out with white silk hangings. They said they were missing this morning. Could it be that they were given to them by the young master's feet yesterday..."

The people around the young man of the Jin family started talking about this matter. Although they didn't say it clearly, the meaning was very straightforward.

Mr. Du Si seemed to be in good health on weekdays. How could he die after being kicked "gently"?

But the young man from the Jin family said nonchalantly.

"What a useless rag body, and it was kicked to death after just two kicks? It's simply ridiculous. Could it be that there is some hidden disease in the body that makes it so useless?"

The people below didn't dare to reply casually. After all, a life had been caused. If the master found out about this, I'm afraid they would be left with nothing to eat.

So I immediately suggested it.

"Master, why don't we find some way to seal the mouths of the Du Si family? Otherwise, if people know that we went to make trouble yesterday, I'm afraid the master will be angry again."

All the things that the young man from the Jin family said in front of Du Si about reporting to the government were all lies.

If they weren't stupid, how could they make the matter so public?

Moreover, he had settled the matter yesterday, and those involved were almost relieved. With an extra 10% profit, no one would have trouble with money.

Therefore, the young man of the Jin family returned to that circle and got along with the brothers from the past.

Therefore, after listening to the words of the people below, the young man of the Jin family casually waved his hand and said.

"It's up to you. As long as you can shut them up, if it doesn't work, just threaten Du Jingxian's life. I wonder if they dare to bet on this and annihilate their descendants!"

"Yes, little one, let's do it right now!"

After handing over his men, the young man of the Jin family fell asleep again. He felt quite comfortable. However, at this moment, his old father was besieged by several officials in the court.

Your Majesty has not been to the court for a long time, and I don’t know what inspired him to do it, so he appeared in the court for the first time.

The prince has overseen the country for many years, but as long as he does not ascend to the throne of God, he can only stand aside.

He behaved openly, but the fourth prince standing below did not behave like this.

He looked at the prince, the gnashing of teeth and unwillingness in his eyes, but none of them fell into the eyes of Prime Minister Guo and Shang Ji.

The two of them looked at the Fourth Prince as if they were looking at someone with wild ambitions, and they never tried to hide it.

The partisanship is plain to see.

On the contrary, Emperor Daxing, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was still yawning out of boredom, as if he had not yet woken up from his sleep.

However, Shangshu of Jin, who was in the whirlpool, was severely besieged.

Those officials are particularly good at exaggerating from small things, so the nonsense behavior of the young man of the Jin family has risen to the level of the corruption of the Jin family's personal ethics.

No matter how capable he is, he can't stop so many sharp words. Besides, it was his son who did it in the first place, so it's useless to struggle.

In the end, I could only take a step back, knelt down with tears in my eyes and apologized.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed of Your Majesty and my ancestors to have such a treacherous son who does not know the heights of heaven and earth. Although the things reported by your Lordships are a bit exaggerated, there is also truth in them. I beat you and scolded you. But it still doesn’t help.”

His direct acknowledgment made Emperor Daxing less impatient, so he spoke calmly.

"This matter is not entirely Jin Aiqing's fault. Doesn't it mean that he was kept in the dark?"

Hearing the emperor speak like this, those officials who had been arranged long ago would not let go easily, and immediately went to report.

"Your Majesty, Shangshu Jin's family affairs have been handled in a mess, let alone a major family matter. Moreover, this matter has been disturbed among the people and spread widely. If your Majesty's big affairs turn into trivial matters, I'm afraid the people will complain. "

"Complaints are everywhere? Sir Liu is probably exaggerating. It's just a failed deal, how could it escalate to such a level?"

The Seventh Prince had always been protecting the Fourth Prince, so when he saw Shangshu Jin being besieged, he would naturally speak out to help. Unfortunately, he had only been in the court for a short time, so how could he be a match for those censors who had been involved in the court for many years?

So he was sent back by the censors after a few words.

"Seventh Prince, be careful. This is not a business matter. The merchant is just an ordinary person. How can he be involved with so many dignitaries? It can be seen that he is good at scheming. Moreover, the young man from the Jin family first used his reputation to help raise funds outside, and then went to the merchant's house to force him after the failure. Not only did he confiscate his property, but he also killed someone. Can such a thing be a trivial matter?"

"Our Daxing Dynasty has been established for less than a hundred years, but it is also very rule-bound. If we use the strong to suppress the weak when something happens, where is the national law? Where is your majesty? Isn't this a discredit to our Daxing Dynasty?"

"You... are simply exaggerating!"

The Seventh Prince said this sentence over and over again, and the Fourth Prince knew that he couldn't win the argument, so he gave him a look and asked him to restrain himself a little.
