Chapter 3551

He Xian: "..."

His face was slightly hot again, and his face was a little red.

Seeing that he was staring at him stupidly, Yan Qingyi pointed to the memorial in his hand, and ordered: "Look at your memorial, and ask any questions to your face."

"...Yes!" He Xian gritted his back molars and turned back to read the memorial.

Ding!

[Host, are you playing your imperial prestige? 】

"Who told him to send Qin Qingyin out of the palace, and he occupied the court for so long?"

【All right. 】

It took He Xian two hours to read the pile of memorials.

Yan Qingyi sat on the armchair and asked, "Any questions to ask?"

He Xiandao: "Someone participated in a book of the Ministry of Rites, saying that he was selling an official."

Yan Qingyi nodded and said, "Well, go and bring me the Minister of Rites."

"Yes!" He Xian replied vehemently.

After He Xian left, Yan Qingyi asked Eunuch Li to bring the lunch to the imperial study. At noon today, he will have lunch in the imperial study.

This is unprecedented. In the past, the emperors used to eat in a specific hall, and only she used it in the imperial study.

Although he really wanted to ask the reason, Eunuch Li still didn't ask, and ordered the maids to prepare lunch in the imperial study.

When the food was ready and Yan Qingyi was eating, He Xian brought Zou Congguang, Minister of Rites, to the imperial study.

Zou Congguang knelt down beside Yan Qingyi, trembling with fear, "I see you, Your Majesty!"

"Someone said you sold an official? Is there such a thing?" Yan Qingyi asked without looking at him.

Zou Congguang stuttered, "This?...Chen..."

"So you're acquiescing?" Yan Qingyi glanced at him, put down his chopsticks, and turned to look at him, "Zou Congguang, you are so courageous, you dare to sell an official, believe it or not, I will fire you now. My job, I copied your home!"

Zou Congguang was so frightened that he fell on the ground, "Your Majesty, this minister is also confused for a while, please be kind to Your Majesty!"

Yan Qingyi had only been emperor for two days, and Zou Congguang's sale of officials must have happened when He Xian was in charge of the court!

This He Xian is nothing more than that. Under his own eyes, there are people who do such a thing!

Yan Qingyi said: "Kindly? You sold my official and let me be merciful? Zou Congguang, is this your duty for the Ming Kingdom?"

Zou Congguang was terrified, "Your Majesty, this minister will not dare any more. In the future, I will do my best to share your worries. Please forgive me."

Yan Qingyi snorted, "It's okay, I just see you as the founding father of the country and don't care about you. However, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. From now on, you will be fined for two years, and you will no longer be Minister of Rites, be your censor."

Zou Congguang thanked him, "Thank you for not killing your majesty, long live my emperor, long live!"

"Go out." Yan Qingyi picked up the chopsticks and continued to enjoy her lunch.

After Zou Congguang left, Yan Qingyi asked He Xian to sit down and eat, but He Xian did not dare, after all, his identity was different now.

Yan Qingyi sneered lightly, "You dare to send the emperor out of the palace, what else do you dare not? Sit down and eat!"

He Xian was deflated again and had to sit across from her.

After taking a few bites, Yan Qingyi asked, "Do you think it's too light for me to punish him like that?"

He Xian said, "Your Majesty is wise."

"Do you think it's right for me to punish him like that?" Yan Qingyi frowned.

He Xian neither humble nor arrogant said: "Zou Congguang is also a founding father of the country, if your majesty kills him for selling an official, he will definitely let other officials talk about your majesty. This is equivalent to a deep fall from a height, such a punishment is enough for him!"
