Bang!
The sudden punch caused Wei Yuan's left shoulder to sink even deeper.
Wei Yuan's miserable scream rang in her ears. Du He waved her hand and said coldly,""This punch is to tell you a principle. It's only right and proper to pay for a life and a debt!”
"Imperial Censor Du, spare, spare my life!"
Wei Yuan looked at Du He in fear and knelt on the ground with a thud. He slammed his forehead on the ground without care, allowing blood to flow from his forehead. He begged,"I know I was wrong. I'll do anything you want. Don't, don't kill me!”
"The Tang family members who were under your blade should have begged for mercy like you did today. Why didn't you consider letting them go at that time?”
Du He sneered and tilted her head to the back."Tang Ze!"
"I'm here!"
Tang Ze looked at Wei Yuan with resentment, wishing he could tear him into pieces with his own hands. When he heard Du He's voice, he hurriedly cupped his hands in respect.
Du He looked at him and asked,"How many kinds of torture do you know?"”
Tang Ze was stunned and said with a guilty expression,"I don't know!"
All the soldiers of the Imperial Guard were from the Golden Guards. The Golden Guards were only responsible for daily patrols. If there were any criminals, they would be arrested and handed over to the Ministry of Justice. They had never personally dealt with the criminals.
"Then start learning. Learn at least fifty.”
Du He nodded slightly and said," From today onwards, try it on Wei Yuan. As long as you don't kill him, he's yours."”
"Yes!"
Tang Ze said excitedly.
However, Lin Feng understood the implication and said respectfully,""Is Imperial Censor Du going to court?"
"It's almost time."
Du He chuckled and patted Tang Yan's little head. Seeing that she was still hiding behind her in fear, she said faintly,""Today's morning assembly is very lively, so how can it be without this censor? This girl shouldn't return to Luoyang. The Imperial Censor's Office is so big, it can fit her in.”
————
Early in the morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
Outside Taiji Palace, the officials of the court walked over one after another.
When they saw Du He standing out like a crane among chickens, holding a Hu biscuit in her hand and squatting in an empty space, eating it with relish with her head lowered, everyone was stunned.
This Imperial Censor Du still dared to go to court today? Isn't this looking for ginseng?
The eyes of the few imperial censors under Wei Zheng also lit up when they saw Du He. They held their jade boards tightly and wished they could rush into Taiji Palace right now and count his crimes in front of Li Er.
At this moment, a purple robed figure suddenly walked out from among the censors. He strode in front of Du He and asked in a cold voice,""Are you Imperial Censor Du?"
Du He raised her head and glanced at him. She raised her eyebrows. Yo ho, we're in the same trade. She stuffed the last bite of Hu Bing into her mouth and stood up while chewing her cheeks. She cupped her hands and said,"This one is Du He. Who are you?”
The purple-robed censor's tone was cold.”
Heh, the second-in-command of the Imperial Censorate, Du He, said in surprise,""May I know why Deputy Wen is looking for me?”
"As colleagues, you and I shouldn't be so distant. Although I'm your superior, when did I ever suppress you?”
Wen Xuning laughed." Besides, everyone in Chang 'an knows your name. Do you want to join the Three Books today?" Yesterday, you dared to consult Imperial Censor Wei Zheng and His Majesty. I would like to know who you are going to consult today.”
Hearing this, all the civil and military officials gathered around with interest.
This Imperial Censor Zhongcheng was obviously ill at home because Xiu Mu did not attend the morning court yesterday and he heard that Wei Zheng had suffered a setback in Duhe. Now, he wanted to regain face for the head of the Imperial Censor.
Du He also understood that this person in front of her was clearly here to stir up trouble. She couldn't help but hold her chin and ponder,"Wei Zhongcheng, we don't have any grudges, right?”
"This official is the Imperial Censor, and you are the Imperial Censor. Today, we don't care about the past, we only talk about our duties!”
Wen Xuning's expression was cold as he said,""Du He, do you know your sins?"
More and more civil and military officials walked out of the palace gates. They couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the scene in front of them. Only when they asked the others did they realize that the Imperial Censorate was having an internal strife again. They couldn't help but watch with interest.
Yesterday morning's court session, it was the Imperial Censor Wei Zheng who took the lead. In the end, Du He beat the old master to death. Wei Zheng, who participated in the court session, was beaten twenty times by the Emperor. Now, there was another Imperial Censor Zhongcheng. Clearly, this Zhongcheng Wen in front of him was determined to punish Du He.
Zhangsun Wuji, Li Ji, and Li Jing walked over while laughing. When they saw the scene in front of them, they could not help but be stunned. After hearing the reason, Zhangsun Wuji said softly,"Are the heads of the Imperial Censorate all so tough?”
"How can you be a censor if you're not tough?" Li Jing sneered.”
Li Ji clicked his tongue in wonder." That makes sense. However, I heard that Wen Zhongcheng has always liked to make the other party speechless before making a comment. Then, he will report to the Emperor in court. Could it be that he also wants to follow suit and do the same thing to Du He?”
"Let's take a look first."
Zhangsun Wuji stared at Du He's friendly smile from afar and hesitated.""Wen Zhongcheng has an iron mouth. His Majesty has been rendered speechless by his words many times.”
