After Wei Guangdu heard this, he felt a thump in his heart. He also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Wen is indeed a fellow countryman of Chen, and he has also come to see Weichen several times. , I just treated him with courtesy and no special care. Wei Wen told me: He has been on the waiting list for more than ten years, but he has been repeatedly ignored by the officials just because his family has no background. He is obviously a Jinshi from Yijia, but he has not been able to get it for so many years. He hoped that I could help him introduce Mr. Fang, the Minister of Civil Affairs, but I had already rejected him at that time. However, he was depressed and had a sense of world-weariness. He couldn't bear it, so he wrote a letter of recommendation, hoping that he would be appointed. The Ministry of Personnel examines their talents before deciding whether to appoint them, and they have no intention of forcing the Ministry of Personnel to bend the law for personal gain."
Some censors ridiculed: "Master Wei's effort is so easy, but he doesn't know how much pressure it will put on the Ministry of Personnel. ?"
Someone echoed: "Yes, the appointment and dismissal of officials is the responsibility of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Mr. Wei really does whatever he wants because of his status as a relative of the emperor. Don't you know that this official position is reserved for those who are capable? A moment of soft-heartedness allowed Wei Wen to take this position, but he didn't know where the person he had squeezed out was now."
"Nepotism, favoritism, this is how the administration is broken!"
Pei Lun continued: "He was originally a candidate wailang with little talent. Because of Lord Wei's recommendation, he took up the lucrative position of wailang of the Ministry of Household Affairs. I jointly reviewed it with Shen Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs. This Wei Wen had only been a member of the Ministry of Finance for three months, but he had accepted bribes of eight thousand taels. It should be noted that he was just a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs. When the minister interrogated Wei Wen, he insisted that Mr. Wei was the mastermind behind the scenes. Messenger, it is true that only 10,000 taels of dirty silver have been recovered, and the whereabouts of the other 20,000 taels are unknown. I suspect that Wei Wen gave it to Wei Shangshu in private, and Wei Wen did visit the Wei Mansion frequently before. Lord Wei will not know this. Deny it? ”
Wei Guangdu finally understood why Li Jun had been beating the Wei family frequently during these days. It turned out that he had never seen through it, and was fascinated by the illusion in front of him, and did not realize what was happening behind it. Danger. He originally thought that the danger came from Li Han, but now it seems that maybe Li Han was reminding him, and it was only because he himself was not aware of the danger.
/p>
Naturally, there were some people in the court who felt that Wei Guangdu must have been wronged. However, the Wei family was already big and attracted people, and Wei Guangdu did not know how to keep a low profile a few days ago, which led to many people in the court looking down on him, even though Knowing that he was unjustly accused, he was unwilling to defend him, not to mention that Wei Guangdu was Li Jun's father-in-law, and Li Jun's heart must be biased towards the Wei family.
There was no flaw in Li Han's expression, and even his tone sounded exactly the same as usual, which made it difficult for everyone to guess what Li Han was thinking.
"What do you think?"
Li Hao and Li Hao were watching a play, and they were unexpectedly called out by Li Hao.After thinking for a while, he said: "Wei Shangshu has a rich family. It seems that there is no need to take risks for 20,000 taels. I think what he said should be the truth."
Li Wei sneered and said: "Witness All the physical evidence is there, should we let him go based on his own words? Isn't the law a child's play? In my humble opinion, Wei Guangdu should be dismissed from his official position and imprisoned until the truth is found out. I wonder what the emperor thinks?"
Li Hao blinked and said, "Quite."
Li Hao had a sneer at the corner of his mouth. He didn't think so. It takes a few rounds of debate. If Li Jun insists on favoring Wei Guangdu, then he will let out public opinion and force Li Jun to cut off his arm. If he refuses, that would be better, because this will damage his prestige and alienate the monarch and his ministers. Although Li Hao agreed so readily, which was a bit beyond his expectation, it depends on how Li Hao plans to explain it to Wei Hao Hao. If the harem is unstable, Li Hao will definitely be affected. What they want is to kill Li Jun and replace him, so if this small case can help them achieve what they want, it will be worth every penny. Of course, this is just his idea. According to how difficult Li Jun is, if he can be solved in this way, then the person who is in charge today will never get his turn.

Wei Chongxin was stupid and didn’t know how to interrupt when these people were fighting, but he understood that Li Jun wanted to accuse his father, so Wei Chongxin hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, calm down, my father is unjust. "Yes, your Majesty, please look into it."
Pei Lun said: "If Wei Shangshu is wronged, I will clear his name. Commander Wei, please rest assured."
Wei Chongxin was arrested. He was so blocked that he couldn't say a word, so Wei Guangdu signaled his stupid son to stop talking.
After retreating from the early court, Wei Chongxin followed Li Jun to the Qinzheng Hall, and then knelt under the throne and refused to get up. Li Han looked confused and said, "Third brother and eleventh brother, I have wronged you to go to the side hall to handle political affairs today."
The two understood, stood up, cupped their hands and left.
Only Wei Chongxin and Li Han were left in the palace, and even Rong Wei was kicked out by Li Han.
"Get up."
"If Your Majesty does not agree to let my father go, I will never get up."
Li Jun laughed at his arrogance. , asked: "What do you want me to do? He was the one who recommended Wei Wen. If something goes wrong now, who else should I look for if not him? Since I promised that I will only have the queen in this life, you, as the queen's relatives, will definitely attract attention." The whole party should be more cautious. There are singing and banquets every day in the Wei Mansion. If I remember correctly, the late emperor is not allowed to drink and feast within a hundred days after his death. You are Hao Hao's brother, and I respect you as my elder brother. But if you never You are all so confused and will only drag down Haohao, so I might as well take this opportunity to send you far away so as not to affect her."
Wei Chongxin didn't understand the deeper meaning of this, he was just persistent. He said: "My father is old.Already high, if your majesty must attack the Wei family, Chongxin is willing to die to appease your majesty. "
Li Han said speechlessly: "What do I want to do with your life? Although the Wei family has power over the entire government, and my imperial army is also commanded by you, there are still three thousand of these people who are my personal soldiers. Even if the Wei family really has any intentions, can they still hurt me? Since this matter was reported by the Ministry of Punishment, wouldn't it be better to leave it to the Ministry of Punishment to find out the truth and clear your father's name? ”
“But how can a child watch his father suffer? "
Li Jun shook his head and said: "You are indeed wrong about this matter. There is no reason why you can't shut it down when others can. There is no need to mention this matter again. ”
