The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 280: 280 Confrontation

Chapter 280 280. Confrontation

"Not only this year's imperial examinations, but also those from previous years will be spared. As long as they are handled by Mr. Wen during his reign, they must be verified one by one. Only in this way can the poor scholars in the world believe the words of the royal family and His Majesty, and they will be allowed to do so in the future. You have a desire to repay Da Jin."

Looking at Wen Jingsong, he also looked kind, but the words he spoke were as cold as winter snow.

And if Mr. Wen is innocent, he can use this incident to prove his innocence, right?

Youre right! We should investigate it carefully!

The ministers reviewed the matter one after another, and Mr. Xu Ge also nodded.

Yin Canwen, the person involved, has no objection!

The Wen family father and son were in a state of confusion at the moment. Yin Canwen's matter had not yet been resolved, and other people were about to be involved. Although he had made preparations for a long time, who knew whether there would be any carelessness. If If he was really found out, I'm afraid his life would be in jeopardy!

Just when I was thinking about how to deal with it, I suddenly heard the palace servants outside shouting loudly that the three father and son of the Feng family had something to report to His Majesty outside the palace, and they asked Your Majesty to convey it to the palace.

Di Qi frowned, why did he become more and more involved? Why are the people from the Feng family coming to join in the fun?

Danren was outside the temple, and it would be inappropriate for him not to come in at this moment, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

With an order from the prince next to him, the three fathers and sons of the Feng family stepped into the hall together.

Feng Hai was seen walking in front, followed closely by Feng Jinxu and Feng Jinlin.

The faces of the three of them were not good, especially Feng Jinlin. As soon as he entered the hall, he looked at Wen Jingsong and Wen Mengsheng, the father and son, with ridicule in his eyes.

Wen Meng was angry, but he also knew that this was not a place where he could get angry at will, so he could only lower his head to hide the malice in his eyes.

"I bow to Your Majesty, may my Emperor live long, long live!"

"I bow to Your Majesty, may my Emperor live long, long live!"

The common people bow to Your Majesty and wish our Emperor long live, long live!

It was the first time that the three fathers and sons of the Feng family went to the palace together, so naturally people couldn't help but take a second look.

One is the Minister of Household Affairs who has been in power for many years. He is in charge of the world's money bags and rice bags, and his strength cannot be underestimated.

One is the newly promoted Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He is a strict and upright person, and he looks a bit like an iron-faced judge.

One is the sixth place in the imperial examination. He is also expected to become an official in the court. He is a high-spirited and handsome young man who has a bright future.

Seeing that the three of them were all bowing and saluting, Emperor Qi's face looked a little better than before, and he stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.

Ai Qing Pingsheng, are you here today also because of the Wen familys affairs?

Feng Hai nodded and said to Feng Jinxu behind him.

Axu, tell me.

"yes!"

Feng Jinxu raised his head, with no expression of eagerness to suppress the Wen family, but what he said made Wen Jingsong feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Your Majesty, I happened to go to Dali Temple today to join the post. When passing by the official's palace, I met some sneaky people. I originally planned to summon them for questioning, but I saw them running around with their heads covered, so I sent The man took it down, and after a careful search, he found that he had brought a lot of flammable things. Most of the people in the pavilion were doing paperwork, and they were always careful when using fire. To go to the pavilion in such an aggressive manner, and to bring such dangerous things, it was obvious at first glance. He had other plans, so he took them back to Dali Temple for interrogation. Those people couldn't stand the torture and all confessed, saying that Mr. Wen ordered them to burn down the officials' offices, but the reason is unknown." He said this. , Wen Jingsong, who had been fierce just now, immediately took two steps back. Before he could open his mouth to accuse Feng Jinxu, he was frightened away by Feng Jinxu's eyes.

"Wei Chen was worried that those people were deliberately arranged to frame Mr. Wen, so he personally took people to the Wen family to investigate and confirmed one by one that they were indeed slaves of the Wen family. At the same time, they were still confessing. The butler heard from his mouth that there was a secret room hidden in the study, but he didn't know the depth of it. However, this matter was of great importance, and the minister did not dare to rashly search the house of a second-rank official, so he had to come to inform His Majesty whether he wanted to search it or not. Follow His Majestys orders!

Having said that, he presented all the evidence and confessions one by one. Those things were like Wen Jingsongs reminder.

Seeing it was delivered to Emperor Qi, Wen Jingsong was helpless.

Feng Jinxu deserves to be the young minister of Dali Temple, and he handles affairs so well at a young age.

What he said is not directly related to the fraud case, but there is a profound meaning behind every sentence. With a little clever calculation, you can know what is behind it.

There is a secret room at home, and there is no guarantee that what is hidden in it may be evidence of accepting bribes.

Isnt it because you are burning down the pavilion because you are afraid that someone will find the file?

In addition, he had already been under King Ding's command, so it would be easy to catch the Wen family's slaves who were trying to set fire to him.

As for the interrogation, it is not surprising that these things came out.

When Emperor Qi heard this, his eyes changed a lot when he looked at Wen Jingsong.

Especially after reading those testimonies, his breathing became even more rapid. The prince felt scared standing next to him, thinking that Long Yan was going to be angry again.

If there was a bit of confusion before, now the evidence is completely in front of us. As long as Emperor Qi orders a search, the matter of Wen Jingsong's accepting bribes and fraud can no longer be covered up.

I dont know if someone really grabbed his sophistry, but Wen Jingsong lost the sophistical momentum he had just now.

After all, Feng Jinxu's ruthless temperament and reputation were obvious to all in the officialdom. Wen Jingsong wanted to blame him, but for a while he couldn't find a place to say it.

Now that the identities of those people have been confirmed, and what needs to be revealed has been revealed, whether they can get out of the torture chamber of Dali Temple alive is still a matter of two questions.

Wen Jingsong, do you have anything else to say?

The title has changed from "loving Qing" to calling him by his first name. Everyone can hear Emperor Qi's disappointment in him.

Wen Jingsong swallowed and his legs softened, but he couldn't panic at this time, so he struggled to his death!

But his people didn't succeed, and the file was naturally not destroyed. How should he refute?

"Your Majesty, Weichen really doesn't know about the arson. If the slaves at home are really instigated to burn down the pavilion, it is probably to prove the crime for Weichen. Otherwise, it will be burned sooner rather than later. But Weichen Isn't it too much of a coincidence that I went to burn it before entering the palace and was caught by Master Feng?"

This move again!

He is a slippery person and can push anything. As long as he cannot be caught with his own hands, he can refuse to admit it!

Bai Dalang listened to this for a long time and had already learned a lot about Wen Jingsong's clever words and gestures.

So, he opened his mouth and questioned.

"Master Wen, don't you think your argument is too pale? It can be said to be an accident, but so many things are directed at you. Is it possible that someone could deliberately frame you and lay such a dragnet? You think too highly of yourself."
