Xie Tianhu stood up and said in a deep voice: "The property left by our ancestors has become the source of civil strife in the Xie clan.
The villain has donated these properties to his ancestors.
One is to warn the clan, the other is to build virtue for them, and the third is to After losing the ancestral property, I can now be down-to-earth and rebuild the family business.”
Everyone spoke one after another, hitting Feng Shangshu like hailstones.
Feng Shangshu's face turned pale again, and those who had supported him did not dare to defend him.
But Fang Chu didn't want to beat up the drowned dog, because he would never be able to stand up again.
In this hall, although the merchants paid money, their status was the lowest.
In front of the emperor and many ministers, if Feng Shangshu is forced to do something bad, no matter how wrong he is or how unkind he is, the emperor and the officials will be disgusted.
Officials would feel that the merchants had violated their rights, and the emperor would feel that the merchants were contemptuous of the imperial authority.
Feng Shangshu could only be impeached by the censor, and then the emperor would punish him by decree.
Therefore, Fang Chu said: "Fortunately, enough money has been raised, and it has relieved Feng Shangshu's worry about the country and the people.
It is only because of the emperor's sage and the empress dowager's kindness that the people have come together to donate."
He didn't even mention asking Feng Shangshu to apologize for the bet.
Emperor Shunchang glanced at him appreciatively.
As the husband-in-law of Guo Zhinu, Fang Chu should protect his wife.
He would be ridiculed only if he was weak and incompetent and hid behind Zhinu's back.
It was rare that he could still understand the general situation and know how to advance and retreat.
However, Feng Shangshu refused to accept this favor.
When he walks out of this hall today, it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the world.
He was facing a desperate situation and had no choice but to sink his boat.
He stepped down from his seat, knelt down, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, Guo Zhinu responded to her every call, and even attracted the literati to sing her praises.
Such invitations can win people's hearts, and their hearts can be killed.
Your Majesty must not be deceived by this superficial phenomenon.
You must Be alert" Qingya stood up suddenly, with an angry light shining in his black eyes.
However, Fang Chu grabbed her arm and pulled her to sit down.
He moved his lips slightly and said, "Don't say anything."
He stared at the emperor above to see how he would deal with it.
Although Qingya didn't know what he meant, she believed him very much and sat down without moving.
Not only did they not move, everyone in the hall remained silent and looked at the emperor.
Silence, as if there was no one in the palace.
Emperor Shunchang looked at Feng Shangshu with a heavy look.
He didn't need to look up at the courtiers behind him and the merchants below to know that they were all waiting for his judgment.
How to deal with Feng Shangshu?
Feng Shangshu was extremely nervous.
No one paid attention to him.
He could no longer hold his nerve.
He thought that Qingya would definitely fight back, so he took the opportunity to kill him and make his ambition clear.
Not only did he want to stand up, but he also wanted to tarnish his reputation and plant a thorn in the emperor's heart.
One day, this thorn will make it difficult for the emperor to sleep or eat well, so he will pull it out quickly.
Unexpectedly, he was hoarse but silent.
Feng Shangshu knew that it was Fang Chu who stopped her.
Feng Shangshu was unable to advance or retreat and didn't know what to do.
After a long time, Emperor Shunchang said indifferently: "Old Ai Qing is old and should no longer work hard.
Please retire and return to your hometown and enjoy your old age in peace."
Feng Shangshu listened to the emperor's calm voice, and there was no reason for the attack.

At this time, if he made a remonstrance to death, it would be more like making a fuss unreasonably.
He fell to the ground and cried: "Your Majesty" Cui Mei suddenly said: "Guo Zhinu invites people to buy people's hearts, and has ulterior motives; King Xuanwu is self-reliant and may rebel; King White Tiger and Duke Jingguo's relatives are powerful, and they may rebel; the Wang family is the natal family of the Empress Dowager, and their relatives are powerful; Mr.
Jiang's relatives are powerful.
Square inside circle, The most cunning one is Feng Shangshu, why don't you tell them all and impeach whoever is most important?
Once these people are eliminated one by one, the emperor will betray his relatives and the throne will change hands.
Master Feng has worked hard to dethrone the prince.
Painful yes and no.”
Feng Shangshu's eyes widened and he trembled: "You, you" Cui Mei sneered and said: "My lord, there is no need to be excited.
I have little talent and little knowledge, and I am not qualified to be slandered by you.
Your Majesty should keep your virtuous ministers far away from villains.
A scoundrel like you who slanders loyal ministers and kind-hearted ministers just for the sake of fighting for one breath should have done it earlier."
Retiring to old age is a blessing to the imperial court and a blessing to the country.”
Feng Shangshu gasped for breath and was about to take action.
Cui Mei pointed at him and shouted: "Sir, you dare to spill blood in this palace.
You slandered Guo Zhinu.
Didn't you just want to anger her so that you can hit a pillar and commit suicide?
Go home and die.
Don't make it look like someone is humiliating you.
We all can see it."
It is very clear that today, you are the one who brought disgrace on yourself.”
Mr.
Jiang frowned and said, "Guo Zhinu hasn't asked you to apologize yet."
You are going to die.
Feng Shangshu paused, panicked and at a loss.
Emperor Shunchang said: "Shang Shu Feng is removed from all positions and salaries and demoted to a commoner.
Come, send him down."
The emperor's voice was cold and majestic, and he was already angry.
Immediately two dragon guards came up and dragged Feng Shangshu down.
Feng Shangshu didn't even have the strength to struggle, let alone fight to the death.
He finally failed to save the evening festival and ended up in a miserable state.
The ministers watched silently as he was dragged out, no one laughed at him.
The court is not a place for simple reasoning, but a contest of power and a balance of interests.
Today, the situation was tilted in favor of Guo Zhinu, so Feng Shangshu fell.
Not only today, but back then in Jiangnan, when Guo Zhinu was falsely accused of being a monster, she looked dangerous, but in the end the situation favored her, so the Xia family fell.
Looking further back, when Guo Zhinu first debuted, she transferred brocade weaving technology to nine aristocratic families in Jinxiu Hall, which also tilted the situation in her favor, so Xie Yinyue lost.
Feng Shangshu is not stupid either.
His slanderous tactics against Guo Zhinu are very common, but very effective.
The emperor doesn't believe it today, but he may believe it one day in the future.
Since ancient times, emperors have been suspicious, and they are even more taboo about anyone subverting the country and the country.
For this reason, they "would rather kill the wrong person than let them go."
Cui Mei's counterattack against Feng Shangshu also took advantage of this, and treated the other person in his own way, which was also very effective.
There are countless such things recorded in history books.
You can't blame the emperor for being soft-hearted.
As an emperor, if you are not vigilant, you will lose your throne sooner or later; if you are too vigilant, you will easily be taken advantage of.
The emperor is also a human being, and he may not be able to perfectly grasp this measure.

Not to mention the ministers and people, but also the relatives.
When the late emperor passed away, he warned Emperor Shunchang: As for the White Tiger King Jingguo Gong and his family, as long as the eldest princess Jing'an is still alive, there is no need to worry that they will rebel; once his imperial aunt passes away, he must be on guard against the White Tiger King Jingguo Gong's family. , Therefore, Emperor Shunchang greatly respected and filial piety the eldest princess Jing'an.
The eldest princess Jingan remained silent.
She was observing Emperor Shunchang.
Emperor Shunchang had only been on the throne for a few years.
He was in the prime of his life, and he was quite smart.
However, when he got older, he was often provoked, and he would inevitably become confused.
After expelling Feng Shangshu, Emperor Shunchang smiled and said: "Guo Weaver Girl" Suddenly I heard someone calling from below: "Your Majesty" It turns out that Ming Yangzi is here.
Emperor Shunchang said hurriedly: "The emperor's uncle is here, please come quickly."
