In the Chuigong Hall, Zhao Heng sat upright, looked at the two husbands in front of him, and secretly complained.

Kou Zhun said with a stern face and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Yang Daqi Yan and others have all the evidence of greed for public funds back then. In addition, there is also the account details of Yang Daqi's embezzlement of public funds and the deficit of the treasury and the list of relevant personnel."

Zhao Heng lowered his head and read the memorials. He saw the rows of names on it, especially when he saw Ding Wei, who ranked first, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and seemed to be unable to accept this fact.

Kou Zhun did not stop and continued: "I will also impeach the general secretary Ding Wei. He took advantage of the time he was in charge of these projects and colluded with Yan Zheng, Yang Daqi and others, and took the opportunity to embezzle and accept bribes and make a living."

Ding Wei's hands trembled slightly, but his face was very calm.

Zhao Heng stopped his hand reading the memorial, looked at Ding Wei with a cold face and asked, "Ding Wei, what do you have to say?"

Ding Wei stepped forward, gave a solemn greeting, confidently speaking, "I am wronged."

Zhao Heng closed the memorial and leaned on the imperial throne: "Tell me!"

Ding Wei stood up, looked ahead, and said seriously: "Yang Daqi and Yan were in a collusion, and I only realized the matter of doing things today. I was shocked and blamed myself for being very guilty. This happened because I was not aware of people and was not strict in controlling my subordinates. If Kou Gong took this account, I would not dare not refuse. However, Kou Gong said that I colluded with them, and were in a collusion, and participated in corruption and bribery, and fed my own pockets, but I would never recognize it."

Kou Zhun showed an angry look on his face, turned his head and stared at Ding Wei, and asked sternly: "Every expenditure is reviewed by you and written by yourself. If you don't agree, these payments cannot be paid at all. Do you dare to say that you are not involved."

Ding Wei sneered, looked at Kou Zhun without hesitation, and retorted: "Good Lord Kou, you are also a political affairs officer. Can you make sure that there are no mistakes in every official business you have done?"

He shook his sleeves and bowed to Zhao Heng, saying sincerely: "Your Majesty, although I am the chief officer of the two things of Yuqing Palace and Taishan Fengshan, I have a lot of things at hand, and I really can't bow to everything. If someone colludes with each other and hides the world, how can I understand their tricks? So if I don't control my subordinates strictly, I will admit it! But if I say that I am corrupt, I will not admit it."

Kou Zhun was furious and pointed at Ding Wei and said, "Ding Wei, you are quibbling!"

Ding Wei ignored Kou Zhun, knelt down directly, kowtowed to Zhao Heng, and said in tears: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I worked hard for the court and your Majesty, and I was loyal to my duties. How could I have had a trace of selfish thoughts? The construction of the Yuqing Palace was calculated by the Ministry of the Duzhi Department and the Ministry of Works. It took fifteen years, but I only took seven years, and I was sleeping at night without hesitation!"

"During the Chunhua period, the people of Xialu rebelled and I was ordered to deal with it, appease the local area, and stabilize the situation."

"Wang Jun in Chuanjun rebelled, and I went into the tiger's den alone, persuaded the rebels and surrendered to the court."

"In the first year of Jingde, the Song and Liao battles were fought. I organized personnel and ships to ferry day and night. In less than three days, all the people on the north bank of the Yellow River were allowed to cross the Yellow River."

"In the first year of Tianxi, I...

Kou Zhun interrupted Ding Wei's words with a strong voice: "If you have no talent, why would you be the prime minister? If you have talent but no virtue, you will not be worthy of being an official! If you have merits and violate the law, you should be severely punished!"

Ding Wei pointed at Kou Zhun, cried and said, "Your Majesty! Kou Zhun is jealous of talented people and capable people. I beg for bones and ask for my hometown!"

Before he could continue talking, Zhao Heng slapped the table in anger and shouted: "Enough! The prime minister, how do you look like crying!"

Ding Weiwei stood up aggrievedly and wiped the corners of his eyes with the corners of his clothes.

Zhao Heng sighed and said helplessly to Kou Zhun: "The actions of Kou Gong, Yan Zheng, Yang Daqi and others are related to Ding, there is no evidence. Just based on speculation, I impeached a prime minister. You are rash in this matter!"

Kou Zhun defended anxiously: "Your Majesty! I..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Heng closed his eyes and pressed his forehead, interrupting him: "I will investigate this matter again. I am tired of it. Lei Yungong, send the two prime ministers out."

"Yes." Lei Yun bowed respectfully, walked to Kou Zhun and Ding Wei, bowed respectfully, and then reached out to the door: "Two gentlemen, please."

Ding Wei bowed towards Zhao Heng with aggrieved expression and turned around and retreated.

Kou Zhun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and his eyes were even red, but in the end he bowed and left without saying anything more.

"Hey!" Looking at Kou Zhun's appearance, Zhao Heng sighed, shook his head, got up and walked out of the hall, and walked towards Yuqing Palace.

When he arrived at Yuqing Palace, Zhao Heng respectfully held the incense and saluted it, inserted the incense into the incense burner, and then sat cross-legged on the cushion.

De Miao looked at Zhao Heng with a look of concern, and at this time he looked at him with a look of concern, with a soothing and quiet voice: "Your Majesty has something to worry about?"

"Yes, Grandpa Kou and Grandpa Ding have fought a lawsuit against the imperial court. I am very worried!" Zhao Heng smiled bitterly, sighed, and looked around: "Look at how glorious and spectacular this Yuqing Palace is. All officials dissuaded me back then, and I am grateful to him only when Grandpa Ding supported me to build it. He completed this matter in a very short time. I appreciated his talents and promoted him to prime minister. But who would have thought that Grandpa Kou took the account of the Duzhi Department's greed and told me that Ding Wei was going to do it and greedy for a large amount of silver..."

Zhao Heng became more and more angry as he spoke, his face turned red: "How dare he do such a thing! How could he let down my trust so much!"

De Miao looked at Zhao Heng quietly: "Your Majesty, is the evidence of the crime conclusive?"

"Yan Zheng, Yang Daqi is dead, there is no evidence. However, if Ding Wei is greedy for such a large amount of money, I... can't even hide it myself!"

De Miao shook his head: "I don't think so."

Zhao Heng raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What are the insights of the immortal master?"

De Miao talked freely: "Your Majesty, Ding Wei has completed seven years to build a large project that will take fifteen years to complete. It is really a rare talent. As for the cost, it is reasonable to start construction day and night, which has been reduced by half the time of the project, and it is reasonable to spend more. But in this way, how could Ding Wei have any potential in everything? The construction of Yuqing Palace is a place where you communicate with the heavens to the heavens, which is a great merit! Your Majesty's Fengshan Cemetery in Mount Tai is a grand event that has been famous throughout the ages. Now that there is no conclusive evidence to prove that Ding Wei is involved, if Your Majesty rashly punishes the meritorious officials, it will not only make the court officials and the people of the world feel heartbroken, but may also anger God!"

Zhao Heng was slightly stunned and pondered to himself: "Well! It won't be angering God! But if I rashly punish Ding Wei, I'm afraid everyone in the world will think that I'm a mean and ruthless person!"
