Chapter 6: This Subject Has Objection

In addition to Situ Yuanxiao's eyes with killing intent, the eyes of the other princes were unclear. Some were deep as water, some were slightly flashing and there was also some full of smiles.

Lin Qing lowered his eyes and waited for the announcement of a small eunuch. Although, he didn't deliberately paid attention, but everyone's reaction went into his eyes.

Finally, the officials became quiet. Everyone returned to their place. With the clamor of a small eunuch, emperor Jinghui appeared in front of everyone. Sitting in the dignified and spacious dragon chair, emperor Jinghui opened his mouth as usual.

"Officials, if you have something to report, report. If there is nothing to report, retreat from the morning court."

Emperor Jinghui's complexion looked good. Hence, the atmosphere today seemed very harmonious. However, sir Wang from the Imperial Censor came forward and said in a solemn and hoarse voice, "This subject has something to report!"

"Beloved subject, what do you have to report?" Emperor Jinghui motioned to him.

"This subject accuses Great Inner Chief Eunuch Lin Qing of using his authority for personal gain, accepting bribes and abuse of power. This subject asks Your Majesty to punish Lin Qing!"

Afterwards, several people from the Imperial Censor followed suit. It was obvious that something would happen today.

The original quiet Xuanzhen Hall appeared even more quiet now. The officials had their head lowered, but their ears were pricked up. They thought inwardly, another one who isn't afraid of death. Sure enough, the people of the Imperial Censor were loyal subjects with bones of metal and offering their life in sacrifice.

Using his authority for personal gain? Accepting bribes? Abuse of power? These charges were all light. Could it be that the old guys of the Imperial Censor changed their strategy? And wanted to sack Lin Qing to investigate and handle him? Hey? It seemed to be very good like this? If Lin Qing entered the prison, it wasn't like that there was no opportunity to kill him.

The calculations in the officials' hearts thundered, but the expression of emperor Jinghui in the dragon chair darkened. He asked gloomily, "Does beloved official have evidence? You have to know that it is also a big crime to frame your colleague!"

Sir Wang's eyes shook. He said upright and plainspoken, "Someone personally saw lord Lin use a large amount of money from unknown sources to purchase a lot of precious stones and wooden utensils. This subject doesn't know what he wants to use them for. Moreover, there were wealthy merchants who gifted him fine horses and beauties as well as releasing prisoners privately. The evidence is conclusive, asking Your Majesty to please punish Lin Qing!"

The officials held their breaths and listened with lowered head. Lin Qing still kept his eyes straight and waited respectfully at emperor Jinghui's side. However, emperor Jinghui's expression got even darker.

This and that one only knows how to grab onto Lin Qing without letting go! Is that Lin Qing using his authority for personal gain? Those were the materials he let Lin Qing secretly buy in order to expand the bath in the inner palace!

Accepting bribes? Those were all offered to him (emperor)! One after another watched the treasury so tightly. The income of the feudal fiefdom was pitiful small. Should he, a dignified emperor of Liang country cry for being poor to them? Truly preposterous!

Also, what was abusing power? Zhen's brother-in-law took liberties with a common woman on the streets. Could it be that he had to keep him locked? This was sincerely wanting zhen's harem to not be peaceful!
