Chapter 460 Tough Warranty!

Shen Ninghua’s redefinition of the standard of the speech officer, immediately attracted the officials above the courtroom sigh of relief, especially the speech officer, after Zhu Zheng’s words, but also directly and he stood on the same position.

Qiu Ming, who had originally spoken righteously and acted in a righteous manner, was now sweating profusely and constantly looking back and forth at his colleagues who had been friends in the past, hoping that they would hurry up and support him.

Shen Ninghua coldly swept her eyes over Qiu Ming, “Qiu Ming, I have spoken of the new standards for the magistrates, now you come to evaluate yourself, are you qualified to be ranked among the magistrates?”

Qiu Ming’s face turned white, but he was extraordinarily stiff-lipped, “Empress Dowager, I think that I am very much in line with the standard of the speech officer that the Empress has said, is it because the subordinate officer has spoken out in defense of justice and said that the Empress is not right, that the Empress is going to drive the subordinate officer to extinction?”

Shen Ninghua let out a cold laugh: ”All over your body, this mouth is the only thing that can get a little bit involved with a speech officer. Since you do not recognize, then the Palace will tell you, why you are not qualified: first, you are exceptionally indulgent of their only son, even his jealousy in the greenhouse and others have made a lawsuit, are covered down to him; second, because you the only son of the Department of concubines, you in the House is to elevate the concubines greatly suppressed the main room, third, your concubine Liu’s not less to help you accept bribes, right? ”

Qiu Ming’s legs and feet were weak, almost unsteady, he had clearly wiped out the lawsuit, and other things had been done extremely secretly, why did things still reach the Queen’s ears?

Shen Ninghua turned around and slowly walked up the steps, violently flung his sleeves, and sat on top of the dragon chair with smooth and natural movements, “Before the Emperor’s imperial expedition, he left a secret decree and a side of the Imperial Sword to the Palace, in order to punish the corrupt officials like you! The Palace today the first day of supervision of the state government, you do not say that outside the snow days, you do not say that the disaster is serious, you do not say how to save the people in the fire, but instead of wanting to give the Palace a downward spiral, this kind of heart without the people wantonly the generation, the Palace will not be able to tolerate you?”

Qiu Ming plopped down and knelt on the ground, “Your Highness, the micro minister did not condone the son ah, even more did not authorize the concubine to accept bribes, are all false words, please Your Highness clear ah …”

“Your son killed someone, there are witnesses, there are plaintiffs who have escaped your pursuit, hand over to the Ministry of Justice for trial, whether you are guilty or not, let’s talk about it after the trial. Men, take off his top hat, drag him down, and beat him into the heavenly prison.”

This time, the Dragon Scale Army quickly stepped forward, not giving Qiu Ming another chance to argue at all. Qiu Ming was dragged outward, his entire body almost dazed, “Empress Empress is perceptive, the humble minister is unjustly accused ah …”

Waiting until his shouts could not be heard, Shen Ninghua looked at the following courtiers, “Qiu Ming’s matter, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs to try properly, after the review, write folders to submit.”

“Yes.” The Minister of Justice hurriedly agreed.

“Well, the delay time is not short, all the adults think also know, now the snowstorm is serious, the emperor before the trip although there are arrangements, but because of the snow blocked the road carts and horses are inconvenient to pass, the implementation of the difficulty is extremely difficult, but also need a few sets of alternate programs. Plus, the emperor is now the imperial army, because of time constraints, the raised food and grass barely able to support the army for a month. Now the Great An Kingdom can be said to be in internal trouble and external trouble, as if stepping on a rift valley, a little carelessness the consequences are unimaginable, so we need all of you adults to pool your wisdom and work together to tide over the difficult times.”

“Yes, I will do my best.”

Early prepared officials immediately submitted their own folding, began to seriously elaborate on the content of their report. Shen Ninghua listened extremely carefully, will be similar to the zhang pick out, really found a few good, she quickly picked out, ready to later carefully study.

The other old-school ministers, seeing the newly promoted ministers in such an adventurous manner, also sat down and presented the proposals they had discussed with the guest ministers overnight.

This early morning court, enough to carry on almost two and a half hours before the end, Shen Ninghua left a few viewpoints feasible officials, before announcing the exit of the court.

Hongling was coaxing Sanjang in the back hall, and from time to time, she would look at the entrance of the hall, “Sister Qingquan, the Empress hasn’t come back yet?”

“No, it should be soon as well, just now the chamberlain came to say that the morning court has already finished, I heard that the Queen has left a few ministers to deliberate, so there shouldn’t be much delay.”

Hongling anxiously watched Sanjang’s incessant crying, extraordinarily distressed, “His Royal Highness the Third Prince has been personally breastfed by the Empress Dowager since birth, and therefore does not recognize the nurse at all, and now cries so miserably, I’m afraid that he is starving hard.”

Green Sparrow was silent for a moment and turned to head out, “I’ll go to the front hall again.”

It was only after about half an hour more that Shen Ninghua returned. Hongling was almost in a hurry to cry, “Empress Mother, you’re finally back, His Highness the Third Prince has been crying for quite a while.”

San Zhuang felt his mother’s breath, slightly turned his head and choked a few times. Shen Ninghua hurriedly picked him up and touched his crying red little face, “Mother came back late, hurry up and stop crying.”

San Zhuang was extremely dependent leaning in Shen Ninghua’s arms, his little hand pulled the clothes on her chest, slightly rubbing his little face. Shen Ninghua put him back on the bed, “Mother will come back to hug you after changing clothes, don’t cry, understand?”

After being put down, Sanjang couldn’t help but skim his little mouth, but seeing that Shen Ninghua didn’t go out, he didn’t cry out, only ah ah ah screaming twice from time to time to show his presence.

Shen Ninghua changed her clothes and washed her hands before picking up the child, and after feeding him, her emotions relaxed slightly before she felt that she was also famished. Hongling had already let someone serve breakfast over, and hurriedly waited for Shen Ninghua to use the meal.

“What took you so long, Mother?”

“Today’s first day of the morning court, to feel out the situation in the courtroom, and deal with the prick who has risen to the top, naturally it took a little longer. After a few days it will be fine, has Jun Yi sent word over?”

“Reporting back to Your Highness, His Majesty had someone pass on a message saying that everything is safe and sound, please don’t worry.”

“Uh-huh.” Shen Ninghua nodded, then couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh, “It’s me who was too anxious, Jun Yi has only been gone for a day, where would anything happen.”

“Your Highness is too worried about the Emperor.”

Not long after, the oldest and Xiaobao came over to look for Sanjang to play, Shen Ninghua let someone watch over them, and took the zhengzhi herself to study it on the side. Hongling brought tea over, “Your Highness, I just received news from Hua Jun Pharmacy, the snow in Jiangnan has stopped.”

Shen Ninghua’s eyes twitched as she recalled the time in her previous life and murmured faintly, “Stopped? It should also stop, how is the situation over in Jiangnan?”

“The Jiangnan side has grain prepared in advance by the Empress, and with the Huajun Pharmaceutical Company vigorously stabilizing the price of food, it’s still considered stable.”

Shen Ninghua is not more optimistic, “The grain bought before is not much, consumed until now is also almost, Jun Yi before leaving has issued a decree to let the official warehouse around the number of grain statistics, now should be almost the end of the statistics, so that the people on the side of the drugstore to keep an eye on the point, if someone is in the grain to do tampering with it, immediately let the people tied up and sent to the Kyoto, severely punished not to be punished! ”

“Yes, ma’am.”

After noon, the three children were all full and asleep, Shen Ninghua rubbed her shoulders, feeling a soreness, and was about to go take a rest, when the green sparrow suddenly walked in, “Your Highness, Prince De seeks an audience.”

Shen Ninghua froze, “Prince De … Baili Jinze?”

“Yes.”

Slightly contemplating for a moment, Shen Ninghua still decided to go meet him, “Help me change my clothes, I’ll go meet him.”

Baili Jinze stood outside the palace, his heart beating constantly inside his chest, he looked at the heavy palace door, only to feel that the whole person is not under his control, can not help but from the bottom of his heart annoyed at such a self, clearly already know that it is impossible, why not completely dead heart!

After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, the door of the palace opened, and Shen Ninghua walked out with Hongling and Qingquan behind her.

Baili Jinze’s complexion stiffened for a moment before he stepped forward and saluted, “Greetings to Empress Dowager.”

“Prince De, excuse me, I wonder if there is something you came to see this palace about?” Shen Ninghua’s expression was cold.

Baili Jinze looked at Qing Qiao and Hongling, “Is it possible to have a few words with the Empress alone?”

“You and I have nothing to say to each other, so there’s no need to avoid it, is there?”

Baili Jinze expressionlessly hooked his lips, “It is also true that Your Highness has always acted decisively and appropriately. I came here today to apologize to Your Highness, it’s all my fault for not watching over my own crown princess, and surprisingly letting her cause so much trouble under her epileptic state.”

Although this battle is not all because of Bu Yonghan, but she is in the end a lead|fire|cause, he should come to make amends.

“This palace also heard before that the crown princess had a serious illness, causing the whole person to be drowsy, and doing something under the madness is also unexpected, Prince De doesn’t need to apologize.”

Listening to her combative tone, even though her heart was prepared for it, it still felt as if her heart was twisted, Baili Jinze gritted his teeth hard to stabilize himself, “Empress Dowager, this time I came to the palace to ask for an audience, in addition to apologizing, there is also one more thing that I want to tell the Empress.”

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes to look at him, her clear eyes not carrying the slightest hint of emotion, “I wonder what it is about?”

“The emperor left, the empress alone to supervise the country, today’s morning court thing I also heard, feel quite some surprise, that Qiu Ming usually acted quite prudent, today in the court above the head of the head, but let me feel very surprised.”

Shen Ninghua’s eyes shifted, “You mean to say that someone is supporting him behind the scenes?”

“I’m not sure, I still need Your Highness to investigate in detail.” Baili Jinze was unwilling to say more.

“Thanks for the reminder.”

“The words have been spoken, and I retire.”

Waiting for Baili Jinze to leave, Hongling was rather puzzled, “Your Highness, how does this Prince De feel that strange?”

Shen Ninghua looked at his back and couldn’t help but slightly lower her eyes, “Where is it strange?”

“Compared to before, it’s as if he’s that much less popular, now it always feels like his entire being has been drained.” Hongling said, suddenly realized that her words were inappropriate, Baili Jinze’s heart towards the Niangniang they all know, now that the Emperor has just left, wouldn’t it be suspected that she is helping others to dig their feet out of the wall when she said this, “Slave girl’s slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Niangniang.”

Shen Ninghua shook her head and suppressed the emotions under her eyes, “You also made an unintentional mistake, forget it. However, Baili Jinze’s words won’t be empty words, there aren’t many people who can back up a verbal official, go investigate the third and fourth princes and see if they have made any movements recently.”

“Yes.”
