Chapter 647: The Young Man Acts on Impulsiveness

The censors' memorials impeaching officials do not need to be approved by the cabinet. Isn't Jiang Youzhen just like a fish in water?

Jiang Youzhen didn’t think this was a good job at first, but seeing Sui Yuanchao’s angry look, she suddenly felt that this position was not bad?

In this case, Jiang Youzhen simply stopped refusing, "As ordered! I will do my best to assist Lord Zhu in thoroughly investigating this matter."

Jiang Youzhen did not give anyone a chance to object and resolutely accepted the job. It seems that entering the Censorate is not just about rank, but also about power.

In addition to the bad reputation of the Dali Temple, the most hated one in the court is the Metropolitan Censorate. The censors in the Metropolitan Censorate are not of high rank, but they can report directly to the emperor. Doesn't this make everyone feel insecure?

Zhou Zhong quickly presented the gold medal with both hands. After Jiang Youzhen took it, his eyes fell on the face of this Chief Steward Zhou. He was in his forties, with a fair complexion, but... he was still wearing makeup?

Moreover, he smelled very fragrant. I don’t know how many pounds of perfume powder he had sprinkled on him. Jiang Youzhen even felt choked. Doesn’t the emperor feel the same way?

Also, Mr. Zhou, you are a fan!

Zhou Zhong smiled at Jiang Youzhen. Fortunately, there were not many wrinkles on his face, otherwise it would be quite scary to see such a white face.

Jiang Youzhen's mind moved, and she had an idea. She smiled back at him and thanked him.

After performing a great ceremony to express his gratitude, Jiang Youzhen felt the cool touch of the gold medal. He weighed it secretly and found it was very heavy.

The gold medal was of course made of gold, but the pure gold of this dynasty was also mixed with other materials. Judging from the touch, the gold content must be at least 70 or 80 percent. The raised font on it read "Gold Medal Granted by Emperor Chengming", and there were dragon patterns engraved on both ends, which was very solemn.

Seeing the gold medal is like seeing the emperor. In name, Jiang Youzhen is assisting the Dali Temple in handling the case, but with this gold medal, the power is actually in Jiang Youzhen's hands. At least she doesn't have to be restricted by the Dali Temple when investigating the case. The emperor is really shrewd!

The emperor looked at Jiang Youzhen, hoping that Jiang Youzhen would not let him down this time.

"That's all for today. I'm tired." The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, and the silver hair mixed in his temples was somewhat conspicuous.

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

"Set up the imperial study!" Zhou Zhong shouted.

Everyone followed him to the palace gate and watched the emperor sit on the dragon chariot.

"Get started!"

All the ministers: "Farewell, His Majesty!"

Jiang Youzhen complained in his heart: Being an emperor is so good! In such a big palace, only the emperor, the empress dowager and concubines above the rank of concubine can ride in a sedan chair.

Can you imagine it? In such a huge palace, all the ministers have to walk. Unless the emperor specifically allows you to ride in a sedan chair, or it is a temporary one, otherwise you will run yourself to death.

The ministers left the hall one after another. Jiang Youzhen came back to his senses from his emotion. Holding the file, he was about to say a few words to Tong Huaian, but unexpectedly, a sarcastic voice came from behind him.

"Jiang Xiuzhuan has a good plan. All of us officials have become part of your plan. But Jiang Xiuzhuan has to be careful and don't fall into any traps."

Jiang Youzhen looked back and found that it was Sui Yuanchao. Isn't that the person? They had never seen her before, and they didn't know why they couldn't stop staring at her.

"Why do you say that, Lord Sui?" Jiang Youzhen looked surprised.

"I was framed and almost went to jail. Fortunately, the emperor and the other gentlemen were wise and exposed Huang Mintao's tricks, clearing my name."

Jiang Youzhen bowed to everyone as he spoke, "It is thanks to your help that I was able to escape today. For this, I thank you!"

Several adults were so angry at Jiang Youzhen that they laughed. They had seen shameless people before, but they had never seen someone so shameless. Today they finally saw one.

Minister of Rites Luo Chengyi couldn't help laughing, "At this time, Jiang Xiuzhuan was very smart and turned the tide. We were just standing by and watching, how can we say we helped?"

"Hey~ If no one of you raised doubts, wouldn't Huang Mintao have succeeded? You are so majestic, just by standing there, Huang Mintao's momentum would be reduced by a few points."

Everyone's expressions relaxed. No matter how many holes there are in a flattery, this guy has good eyesight.

The people who had just been tricked by Jiang Youzhen finally felt a little relieved, but they still had some resentment.

The Minister of Personnel Zuo Mingyang even said: "I would like to advise Jiang Xiuzhuan that young people should restrain their temper and not show off too much, otherwise they will be seen as a thorn in the eyes of others."

"That's right! Young people who act on impulse may suffer great losses sometimes." The Minister of Revenue Du Yikun smiled and shook his head.

Because Jiang Youzhen's liquor disinfection product has shown initial results, the court is currently looking for suitable merchants to distribute it, which will be another huge income, so Du Yikun still has some good feelings towards Jiang Youzhen.

"Thank you all for your advice and teachings. I will keep them in mind."

When everyone heard this, they thought this kid was just taking advantage of the situation. They were clearly warning him, but this kid was always trying to flatter himself.

Some officials pride themselves on their high status and naturally disdain to argue with minor officials like Jiang Youzhen.

But there are always those who are petty-minded, such as the Sui and Yuan dynasties.

He sneered, "What a silver tongue!"

He was waiting to see how Jiang Youzhen would investigate the case. He was certain that Jiang Youzhen was seeking revenge. Huang Mintao was just jealous of Jiang Youzhen. He had been in the Hanlin Academy for so many years. How could he be related to the remnants of the previous dynasty?

Humph! Sui Yuanchao walked away in anger.

Everyone left one after another, and Jiang Youzhen sighed helplessly.

At this time, Tong Huaian came over, and when most of the people had left, he said, "You have to be careful with this Minister of War. He is petty and holds grudges. You contradicted him today, and when he finds a chance, he will definitely deal with you."

Jiang Youzhen smiled helplessly, "I haven't offended him in any way before!"

Tong Huaian looked around and continued, "He originally planned to surrender to the deposed crown prince, but it didn't work out. Also, because he had some friction with the Fourth Prince over political affairs, he now thinks that you are close to the Fourth Prince, so he is wary of you and dislikes you."

After all this time, it was because of the Fourth Prince? Jiang Youzhen curled her lips. She was suffering from an unexpected disaster!

Tong Huaian saw her pouting and suddenly felt a little amused.

But he immediately said seriously: "The emperor has some intention in handing this case over to you. Be careful. If there is any inconvenience, just come to me."

He added, "It has nothing to do with the Fourth Prince."

Jiang Youzhen felt warm in his heart, they still had friendship.

"Yeah!" Jiang Youzhen responded softly without any polite words.

Tong Huaian was delighted to hear that Jiang Youzhen did not refuse. Jiang Youzhen had just reported to Qian Songyun that she would go to the Dali Temple immediately.

Because the case had been handed over to the Dali Temple, the person was transferred to the Dali Temple prison.

The two separated, and Jiang Youzhen was thinking about the emperor's intentions all the way.

It seems that he is very partial to her and gave her the case without any hesitation. If you don't know, you would really think that he is asking her to take revenge!

However, Jiang Youzhen would never think so. On the contrary, this was a test of her by the emperor.
