Chapter 140 Well done [Monthly ticket requested! ]

Liang Yue had never thought before that he would have the opportunity to ascend to the imperial court so soon.

And in such a high-profile manner.

He did not report in advance or wait in the side hall, but went to the Eastern Palace first as the prince's companion.

When the prince saw him, he immediately greeted him with concern.

When he heard that Liang Yue and Princess Fuyang were suspected of involvement, he was worried for a while. However, as a member of the royal family, he could not get involved before the case was clear, so he did not visit him.

Now that the case is over and the truth is out, he is also very happy for Liang Yue.

After some greetings, Liang Yue also asked about the prince's recent situation.

The prince's face wrinkled immediately, and he said aggrievedly, "Recently, because you're not here, Teacher Xu is in a bad mood and likes to scold people more in class. Or because you're not here, he can only scold me."

Liang Yue felt a little pitiful and a little funny in his heart, and immediately bowed and said: "I will definitely come to the East Palace more often to perform my duties in the future."

"Yes." The prince nodded solemnly, "Don't lie."

His resentful look made Liang Yue feel for a moment that this was not the East Palace, but the Cold Palace.

After waiting for a while, everything went according to plan.

Xuanren's young eunuch came to the East Palace and led him to the Shanhe Palace in the imperial city.

Amid the puzzled looks of the court officials, this handsome young man walked up to the front of the palace and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Are you the young man who saved the prince in front of the Tower of Babel?" Emperor Mu Bei smiled and nodded, "I like you young heroes from the Xuanmen very much. What testimony do you want the Left Prime Minister to make by asking him to come to the palace?"

"I would like to ask him to speak for someone. That person can no longer come to the palace, so we need someone to speak for him." Liang Fuguo said.

"Who?" asked Mu Beidi.

Liang Fuguo replied: "A scholar named Zhang Xingkai."

When Liang Yue handed the evidence to Liang Fuguo, he did not want to show up. He originally wanted to hide his presence in this matter and just treat the evidence as something that Bai Zhishan handed over to the Ministry of Justice.

But after Liang Fuguo read the evidence inside, he changed his mind.

He originally wanted to weaken the Lu family as much as possible and then find an opportunity to eradicate its roots. But after carefully studying the evidence collected by Zhang Xingkai, he felt that it was enough to completely kill Lu Yuanwang.

If you want to kill him with one hammer, you need to set up a trap.

Make a big nest.

After setting the bait, it would be inappropriate for Liang Fuguo to tell this story himself. He needed another person to help him collect the net to prove the authenticity of the story.

Liang Yue is of course the best candidate.

He was the one who obtained this evidence, and he was also an immortal official of the Xuanmen Sect.

The disciples of the orthodox Xuanmen sect have a very good reputation throughout the world and are generally regarded as upright gentlemen - except for a few exceptions.

Therefore, the evidence produced by the Xuanmen Immortal Officials will also be considered more authentic.

Moreover, some of the words involve the most sensitive issue of the royal family, the dragon dispute, and only the disciples of Xuanmen dare to say them.

Ordinary officials would certainly not dare to get involved in these things.

Liang Yue was reluctant to reveal himself before because he was a little worried about the Lu family's revenge and picking a fight with the prince.

But Liang Fuguo's move was enough to wipe out the Lu family's power in one fell swoop, so there was no need to worry about revenge.

The Sixth Prince's foundation has completely collapsed. The Crown Prince must be happy about this. He probably won't care too much about who he gives the evidence to or who he gets closer to.

So after careful consideration, he took the opportunity to show his face.

After hearing the three words "Zhang Xingkai", Lu Yuanwang's lowered eyes became particularly gloomy.

Mu Beidi showed some interest, "Okay, then tell me about it."

"Ahem." Liang Yue cleared his throat and began to narrate in front of the emperor and all the civil and military officials: "When I learned of this name, I was still serving in the Imperial Capital Guard. I learned that the president of the Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce in my jurisdiction had died tragically, so I went to investigate."

"This person is Zhang Xingkai."

"Dead?" The court officials at the back whispered to each other, and then they realized that this person was dead, no wonder he couldn't come.

Liang Yue continued, "During the subsequent investigation, I gradually learned about this man's life, which was quite sad. He was born into a family of officials and was the most outstanding student in Banshan Academy. He had a bright future. However, more than ten years ago, he was implicated because his family was convicted of a crime and was exiled to Yuezhou."

"He was rescued on the way. Not only did they help him avoid being exiled, they also gave him an estate, but he was just helping someone else manage it." Liang Yue looked at Lu Yuanwang, "That estate was made by taking advantage of the construction of Yuezhou City and the power of the Ministry of Works. As a businessman, he made a lot of money and then returned it to the owner of the estate, who was called the Sixth Young Master."

"Wow." A buzzing sound came from behind.

Building a city in Yuezhou… the authority of the Ministry of Works… Sixth Young Master, this is too specific.

"You are talking nonsense." Lu Yuanwang finally couldn't help it and said solemnly: "More than ten years ago, how old was the Sixth Prince? How could he act like this? If you want to accuse others, it's ok, but if you dare to slander His Highness, even if you are a Xuanmen Immortal Official, you must be careful with your words and actions!"

"My Lord Father-in-law, why are you so anxious?" Liang Yue smiled, "I haven't finished yet." "Humph." Lu Yuanwang realized that he had interrupted someone else and was a little inappropriate, so he waved his sleeves and stopped talking.

But this place really touched the place that mattered most in his heart.

In his calculations, he could even die, but the Sixth Prince could not be affected in any way.

That is the key to the Lu family's success one day.

Liang Yue exchanged answers with the important officials of the dynasty. He was not at all nervous and continued to talk eloquently: "Zhang Xingkai gradually became shaken in the process of doing these things. Although the other party was his benefactor, he did all the bad things for the other party, which were abuse of power for personal gain and detrimental to the country. As a result, countless public funds were lost and the people of Nanxiang died. But the people behind the scenes did not care about these. They only had cold interests in their eyes."

"Zhang Xingkai decided that he couldn't go on like this." Liang Yue clenched his fists, his tone gradually becoming more generous. "He began to collect evidence of the people behind the scenes, and until this year, he felt that he had enough evidence. But he was still afraid, because those people were too powerful, and he was afraid. He was also hesitant. He asked his wife and his classmates, but he died before he could get the final answer."

"Now both the husband and wife have been killed."

Liang Yue played a little trick here. In fact, the death of Zhang Xingkai and his wife was caused by the Xishan Club behind Madam Zhang, and it was only slightly related to the Lu family.

But when they put it this way, it sounded as if they were killed by the Lu family just because they were collecting evidence.

With a little incitement.

Sure enough, after these words were spoken, the hall fell into complete silence.

Before, when all the ministers rushed to attack Liang Fuguo, everyone could still laugh it off, because the back and forth attacks in the court were inevitable and everyone was used to it.

These things are all out in the open. No matter which side wins, neither side will completely crush the other side.

But it’s different now. This little immortal official came up and revealed the affairs between Father-in-law Lu and the Sixth Prince. These kinds of things are all private and rarely brought to the table.

Once they are brought up, it will be a fight to the death.

It seems that one of the Left Prime Minister and Father-in-law Lu will surely fall today.

Liang Yue paused for a moment and continued, "Fortunately, Zhang Xingkai handed over all the evidence he collected during his lifetime to his good friend, and I obtained it during the process of solving the case. This matter is of great importance and I dare not act rashly, so I handed it over to Lord Zuo Xiang."

When he finished his attack, he looked at Liang Fuguo.

The left prime minister, who had been listening silently, immediately took over and held up a memorial, saying, "All the evidence collected by Zhang Xingkai is here."

The young eunuch came and handed the memorial to the emperor, and Liang Fuguo explained it to the ministers.

"It records what the Lu family has done in Yuezhou over the years. They abused their power for personal gain and brought disaster to the people. It's no exaggeration to say that they are the country's biggest corrupt officials. But Father-in-law Lu has been living a simple life for many years, and the children of the Lu family rarely indulge in extravagance. So where did all the money go?"

His question landed with a resounding voice.

The eyes of countless court officials behind him trembled.

"It is recorded that over the years, the Lu family has provided huge amounts of money to more than 400 officials in the Divine Capital, asking them to support the Lu family in the court and speak well of the Sixth Prince. Your Majesty can have someone compare and see if there is a memorial submitted to the palace for every sum of money received."

"He disregarded human life, won over court officials, deceived the emperor, and shook the foundation of the country!" Liang Fuguo said word by word, "Lu Yuanwang committed the crime of deceiving the emperor! If he is not killed, it will not be enough to appease the public anger!"

ho-

All the officials in the court exclaimed at the same time.

I thought that it was Father-in-law Lu who came here today for Liang Fuguo, but it turned out that Liang Fuguo was setting up a killing spree for Lu Yuanwang!

Even if the emperor didn't want to take action against Lu Yuanwang before, these evidences were enough to change his mind.

If it was just corruption, he might have turned a blind eye. After all, if you replace ten people with the position of Minister of Works, nine and a half of them would be corrupt.

But you can't spend money like this.

You were greedy for the court's money, and then bribed court officials to let them speak for the Sixth Prince and support him to take the throne, creating the illusion that you were the popular choice.

In and out, what's the difference between this and spending the emperor's money to buy the emperor?
When the Sixth Prince ascends to the throne in the future and continues to value you, and you repeat this pattern again, wouldn't that mean you can make whoever you want the throne the same?

You might as well sit on the throne.

It is absolutely intolerable that everything the emperor sees is controlled by one person.

Liang Yue secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Beidi. His expression was still neither sad nor happy, but it seemed that he was feeling shocked inside.

Looking at Liang Fuguo again, he was also standing there with an expressionless face.

One has to admire that those who can reach the top have indeed possessed some skills. At least one can't tell any emotion from their faces.

If you were criticized by all the officials in the court for so long, and you had been suppressed for a long time, and then you finally caught the bait and pulled the net back, you should have wanted to jump up and punch to celebrate, right?

Liang Fuguo seemed to have noticed Liang Yue's gaze. He did not turn his head, but secretly gave him a thumbs up with his left hand hidden by the wide sleeves of his court robe.

boy.

Nice job.
