Chapter 113
The next day.

Imperial City, Metropolitan Procuratorate.

At dawn, Tang Can walked out of the gate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and wandered around the imperial city.

After the gate of the imperial city was opened, it happened to appear beside the gate, and entered the city together with Gao Yuanyi and others to participate in the court meeting.

At the beginning of the court meeting, Fang Xiaoru took the lead in launching the attack.

"My Majesty, yesterday there were rumors about God's capital, and the people were flustered."

"I went to the military department to ask about Xu Ba, and the people from the military department Gu Zuoyou said that he..."

"Afterwards, Baiqisi indiscriminately drove the people away from Luoshui. This matter should be thoroughly investigated."

Gao Yuanyi was all smiles, and cupped his hands, stood up and said: "My Majesty, the matter of Xu Ba's rebellion was settled a few days ago, and I don't know why Fang Dashi wants to say that the military commander Talk about him."

"Hmph!" Fang Xiaoru snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Then tell me why there are so many corpses of court officials in Longtan Valley!"

"Six Ministers, Minister!"

"A total of 37 court officials!"

"That's it, die in Longtan Valley!"

Gao Yuan's expression did not change, he was still smiling.

But Shangguan Wan'er, who is on the throne, has a bad complexion.

The other officials were even more silent!
In early winter, it is already a bit cool.

This time, Leng Qunchen felt even colder!
They all cursed in their hearts.

The one surnamed Fang is in vain as a minister... Which pot is not open and which pot to lift!
but……

Just when Gao Yuanyi was about to speak, Tang Can stepped forward and asked softly, "Where does Mr. Fang think they should die?"

"Dead at home?"

"Die in the imperial city?"

"Wenchang Pavilion?"

"Su Zheng Tai?"

"Akibe Prison?"

Facing Tang Can, Fang Xiaoru still kept a straight face and said word by word: "No matter what, they should not die under the sword of their own people!"

"Xu Ba conspired to rebel. Li Yaoshi killed them. How is it different from rebellion?"

Tang Can shook his head, turned his head and forgot about Shangguan Wan'er, and said softly, "Your Majesty, you can show them that secret decree."

"Biography." Shangguan Wan'er was well aware of this matter, so naturally she did not object at the moment.

Moreover, it would be a good thing to take advantage of this opportunity to smooth out the turmoil of this period of time.

after all.

After the winter, the Chinese New Year is almost here.

No one wants to start a new year with a lot of baggage...

Russian hectares.

A female official walked into the hall with the order.

Civil and military officials feel a little nervous for no reason!
"Fang Xiaoru, don't you want to know, then just take a look."

Shangguan Wan'er's cold voice floated into Fang Xiaoru's ears.

Fang Xiaoru regained his composure, thanked the empress, and reached out to pick up the will.

But after picking it up, I suddenly realized something was wrong!

Why is this will much heavier than the usual will?
Fang Xiaoru unfolded it gently, only to realize that the scroll, which is usually no more than half a meter long, may be more than one meter today.

Glancing at the content above, his pupils shrank!
"In January of the first year of Li Chun Ruyi, Minister of the Ministry of Heaven, Liu Gu, a former doctor of the Ministry of Heaven, received a gift of 3000 taels of silver and recommended Liu Gu to be appointed as the minister of the Ministry of Heaven..."

"Liu Gu, Minister of the Ministry of Heaven..."

"Dibu Shangshu Ni Ke..."

The crimes one by one are clearly visible!
When the money was collected and what was done with the money, it was all clear.

Fang Xiaoru's breathing became a little short, and he looked over one by one, and soon saw the end.

"Now that Xu Ba is rebelling, your lives should be handed over to Tang Can and Gao Yuanyi."

Tang Can...Gao Yuanyi?

Fang Xiaoru raised his head abruptly, and his eyes fell on Tang Can.

Tang Can looked calm, and said indifferently: "Master Fang, do you think they died unjustly?"

Fang Xiaoru's body shook, and he took a deep breath: "Is there any evidence?"

Tang Can shrugged his shoulders, and said casually: "Li Chun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Heaven before yesterday, is a third rank, with a monthly salary of 60 taels according to the law, a servant's salary of 48 taels, [-] ​​Fangge and concubine servants, and [-] mu of land."

"Lichun's family lives in Jishanfang. There are maidservants in Licheng, Yanran slaves, and Yunfuman in the mansion. Do you want me to continue?"

After speaking halfway, Tang Can paused, and glanced at the officials casually.

Most of the people present did not dare to look at him.

after all……

Some things are not very good to put it bluntly!

Fang Xiaoru said nothing more.

but……

If they don't say it, it doesn't mean Tang Can doesn't say it.

Clearing his throat, Tang Can continued to laugh and said, "I know that many of you here are famous calligraphers and painters. A random painting and calligraphy can sell for 80 taels of silver."

"However..."

"I am the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I want to remind my colleagues."

"Some calligraphy and paintings can be sold, but some calligraphy and paintings cannot be sold."

"Everyone knows the reason, so I won't say much about it."

More than clear.

It's so clear!

Regardless of civil or military, the most common means of accepting bribes is through calligraphy and painting.

after all.

Calligraphy and painting are elegant things, and it’s nothing to sell them for some money.

Moreover, calligraphy and painting can be said to be works of art, and their value is not easy to evaluate.

Therefore, one is willing to buy, the other is willing to sell, you love me, even Gao Yuanyi and Xie Anshi in the past are not easy to do about it.

Unexpectedly, Tang Can pointed it out neatly in the court today.

In the words, there is no shortage of threats.

The civil and military officials wanted to retort, but they heard something they would never forget.

Even Tang Can couldn't help being taken aback.

On the throne, Shangguan Wan'er blushed slightly, and said weakly: "Yesterday, I suddenly had a thought and drew a picture."

In a word, bring Tang Can's memory back to a few days ago.

In my heart, I can't help feeling a little bit emotional.

As expected of always accompanying the empress, Shangguan Wan'er... also has the potential of a foolish emperor, knowing what to say at the right time.

……

The morning meeting dispersed naturally.

Civil and military officials, each with their own minds, went to their respective yamen to start their day's work.

Gao Yuanyi followed Tang Can with a smile and went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

On the second floor, after closing the door, he said with a smile: "Tang Yushi, the three boys from the Xu family have been found. Li Guangtie, Chen Zhizhang and other seven people from the official department are involved in yesterday's incident."

"Do you think he killed him directly, or what?"

"I must kill, but I can't kill directly. I have to do something." Tang Can pondered for a while, and said softly: "You don't care about this matter. It's a matter of the procuratorate. I will solve it."

"You send someone to notify Li Yaoshi and ask him to pay attention to Damo. No matter what Xu Xiangnan said is true or not, we must keep an eye on this matter."

"Yes."

"Also, over at the mountain house, pick someone to follow me. I need someone to do some things."

"Yes." Gao Yuanyi was very tactful, he didn't ask, but agreed.

It was only after Gao Yuanyi withdrew.

In Tang Can's mind, the strange knocking sound that had not appeared for many days finally appeared again.
