Jiajing is not an emperor who likes to write his thoughts on his face, and he will not discuss everything with important ministers, but said lightly: "If there is nothing else, you can retreat!" ”

Jiajing's heart has already made a decision, and Wu Shan's fate is probably worrying or joyful. In the final analysis, Wu Shan should not go to this trick against the holy will, let alone become Xu Jie's "thorn in the eye".

Xu Jie respectfully saluted and prepared to leave, although he also couldn't judge what the Holy Lord would do, but he concluded that Wu Shan was more than lucky, and he had already met his psychological expectations.

Although Yan Song is his most important target at the moment, "people have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries", especially Lin Haoran's posterity is extremely difficult, and he must always be vigilant against Wu Shan.

This time, if Wu Shan can be directly eliminated, it will naturally be gratifying. But if he can make the saint hostile to Wu Shan, it will not be in vain for him to waste this effort.

At this moment, Gao Yao stepped forward and suddenly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen still has one more matter!" ”

Huang Jin and the others looked at Gao Yao suspiciously, but they didn't know what this Hubu Shangshu was going to say.

"Say!" Jiajing picked up a copy from the music on the case, looking indifferent.

When Xu Jie saw this scene, he faintly felt that things were not simple.

Gao Yao's eyes welled up with tears, and he said repentantly: "Your Majesty, the ambergris that Wei Chen offered that day was bought in Beijing, and afterwards Wei Chen thought about something wrong, so he couldn't sleep and eat for days, so he sent someone to conduct an in-depth investigation, but he found ......."

Jiajing had already grabbed a piece of music in his hand, and after hearing these words, he put down the music and looked at him with a gloomy face: "What did you find?" ”

Gao Yao gritted his teeth, raised his fat face, tears rolled in his eyes, and replied in pain: "The ambergris that Wei Chen bought is actually flowing from the palace!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the palace people around were immediately stunned.

Ambergris flowed out of the palace, it was naturally not something that Gao Yao could do, it must have been one of them who took advantage of the fire that day to steal the ambergris, and the spearhead was already pointed at their group of palace people.

The most important thing is that His Majesty the Emperor, who has always been wise and sacred, has made a big fuss.

This ambergris comes from the palace, and it naturally belongs to the emperor. It's just that when the emperor accepted Gao Yao's ambergris, he not only gave Gao Yao seven hundred and sixty taels of silver, but also gave him the title of prince and prince.

It was like a thunderclap sounding on the ground, blowing many people to the outside.

"Gao Aiqing, the essence of what you said has already been known to me!" Jiajing didn't seem surprised, but took Song Shu in his hand and looked at him coldly.

Gao Yao's back immediately swelled with coldness, and he pleaded again: "Weichen is guilty, mistakenly taking the emperor's ambergris as a minister's thing and transferring it to the emperor, please ask the emperor to surrender!" ”

"You are guilty, it's a sin that is unforgivable!" Jiajing's face was also moved, and he immediately made a loud accusation, but then said: "If you don't confess today, I will cure you for the crime of disrespect!" ”

"Weichen deserves death!" Gao Yao immediately knelt on the ground, and his heart was extremely frightened.

Xu Jie saw this scene in his eyes, and looked thoughtfully at Gao Yao, who knelt on the ground and repented.

Last year, the Wanshou Palace was fired, and all the treasures were burned, which is indeed a bit strange. However, after the fire, only ruins remained, and everyone's attention was focused on rebuilding, so naturally the treasure was burned to ashes.

It's just that birds die for food, people die for money, and palace people have always been greedy for money. A few years ago, Chen Bin, the celebrant and eunuch, took advantage of the convenience of supervising the work to lose a lot, and finally copied more than 300,000 taels of silver from his house.

When a fire broke out that night, it was inevitable that some palace people would take advantage of the chaos to sneak into the treasure house to steal some heavy treasures, and then sell them to dignitaries in the capital.

After the construction of the Wanshou Palace, the saint issued an order to let the hundred officials enter the treasure, which gave the palace people a chance to get rid of it, and at the same time let these stolen treasures surface.

Xu Jie was slightly puzzled that ambergris was a lump of sticky material that could change shape with just a few pinching strokes. Even if it is dedicated to the Holy One, it is impossible for the Holy One to find a flaw.

It's just that the truth soon emerged.

Jiajing's voice sounded again, as if everything was under control: "Do you really think you can deceive Yu Zhen?" The white Ganoderma lucidum offered by Liu Ji also flowed out of the palace, and it is also an object that belongs to me, right? ”

When Xu Jie heard this, his face was immediately relieved, which could be regarded as explaining Liu Ji's confusion of being ordered to sit idle.

If Liu Ji offers a real treasure, he will naturally be added to the official rank, but if he takes the emperor's things and dedicates them to the emperor, it is simply a bully. is also the case, Liu Ji can be regarded as having no reactive power, so he will naturally be "punished".

It's just that what makes Xu Jie unclear is that I don't know if Liu Yi exposed Gao Yao, or Gao Yao involved Liu Ji.

"The Emperor Shengming!" Gao Yao naturally didn't hide it anymore, and immediately shed tears of remorse, and at the same time a trace of luck swelled up.

When Liu Ji was ordered to stay idle, he had a bad premonition. After some consideration, he guessed that the root cause might be the offering of the treasure, and that their actions might have been known to the Holy One.

After several inquiries, he guessed that the person who exposed the matter was none other than the new Shuntian Mansion Yin Lin Haoran, the biggest beneficiary.

Lin Haoran entered the palace that day, and his real intention was not to offer a treasure to the saint, but to directly stab this matter to the saint. This also explains why after Lin Haoran entered the palace to offer treasures, he obviously did not offer heavy treasures, but instead got the position of Shuntian Mansion Yin.

Although Liu Ji was severely punished, and he, the culprit, was safe and sound for days, he did not easily reject Lin Haoran's inference that he had stabbed the matter.

He also called in his staff to do an in-depth analysis and made a big false hypothesis. The reason why he has been able to support him unharmed until now is probably not that he has not been exposed, but that the Holy One is waiting for the opportunity.

The saint can directly remove Liu Ji, who is "guilty", from office, but it is impossible to remove him from a household secretary for no reason. The most important thing is that the Holy Lord probably does not want this scandal to be made public, so he will find other reasons to dismiss him from his post and investigate.

Facts have proved that his reasoning is not wrong, and he took the initiative to confess the truth, which is already the right move. If not, if it drags on for another day, he may be directly out of the position of the head of the household.

As soon as he thought of this, the cold hairs on his body exploded, and a bit of luck surged in his heart at the same time.

Jiajing did have complicated thoughts, but out of the need to control the important ministers, he turned to Xu Jie and said, "Xu Aiqing, how do you think I should deal with this matter?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang Jin and the others looked at Xu Jie, but they were looking at how this shrewd Ming Shoufu would respond.
