In the study room of the Korean Government Palace, the lights were as bright as day.
Jia Heng and Feng Lian entered a study room. Feng Xian, Feng Lian's son, said a few words and then exited the study room. The two began to drink tea and talk.
The two of them chatted.
Feng Lian put down the tea cup, looked at the boy in python suit opposite, and said, "I've heard everything about Ziyu during the day."
Jia Heng put down the tea cup, looked at the middle-aged gentleman in foreign uniforms opposite him calmly, and waited for his words.
The Feng Lian in front of me was born in Juren, and had served as a magistrate, magistrate, and magistrate of Henan Prefecture in Xin'an County. As the Korean Dowager got older, he did not achieve much in his official career, so he simply resigned from the official position and devoted himself to Serve your mother at home.
"Now that the country is facing a national crisis, the Wei and Zheng dynasties do not understand the general situation and still owe the court food and grain. Where do they care about the overall situation?" Feng Lian said.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "The two vassals have owed millions of dan in taxes and grain for many years. But this time we lead the troops to quell the chaos and calm the people, so there is a huge gap in rice and grain."
Feng Lian's "conversation is simple but deep" probably has a deeper meaning.
Feng Lian asked: "There are a hundred thousand thieves gathered in Kaifeng Mansion. How many troops will Ziyu lead this time? Do we still need to dispatch soldiers from Henan Mansion?"
"This time we will lead 80,000 infantry and cavalry troops. Otherwise, it will not be enough to completely quell the chaos in Henan." Jia Heng did not hide anything and said in a deep voice.
"Ziyu is old enough to plan for the country, and he is thoughtful about everything." Feng Lian nodded and said: "Now the bandits in Runing, Kaifeng and other places have gathered 100,000 people to cause chaos, and there are too few soldiers and horses to worry about being stretched. 80,000 soldiers and horses are thundering. The power can wipe out all thieves and bandits."
He thought there was only this group of cavalry, but now it seemed that they were just reinforcements, with most of the soldiers behind them.
"I was thinking before that if Zi Yu is short of food and fodder, please give me a word. Although there is not much food and fodder at home, there is still one or two hundred thousand dan to help alleviate the national crisis. It will be enough to call on the noble gentry to donate some. Feng Lian said with a smile.
Among more than a dozen rice merchants in Luoyang, there is the Feng family.
Jia Heng said: "Now the military supplies are not short of grain and rice. It's just that they came in a hurry. The army is still short of meat, vegetables and medicine. I would like to ask Feng Gong to organize Luoyang gentry to buy some. Of course, Feng Gong's busy work will not be in vain. The court is willing to purchase at normal market prices." .”
The army fights with logistics. Now that rice and grain have been supplied, other supplies are also indispensable.
Jia Heng said and added: "In addition, please recruit some military doctors. I intend to pilot a military medical department in the army to treat wounded soldiers."
In fact, the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital often went out with the army to make great contributions and were kind to their descendants, but they did not form a custom.
Feng Lian smiled and said: "This is not difficult. I have summoned some senior officials and gentry in Luoyang to handle this matter in the past few days."
Jia Heng couldn't help but feel doubts in his heart when he looked at Feng Lian who was showing his kindness to him.
After thinking for a moment, he understood what the Feng family was thinking, which was to show his kindness.
The Feng family relied on the Empress Dowager Feng who was raised in Changle Palace. However, the Empress Dowager Feng was already in the spring and Autumn period and could not pass away in a few years. So where would the Feng family go? Feng Zheng, who only served as the chief envoy in Fujian, had no idea. The support of the civil servants in the central government was obviously not enough to keep the lintel from falling, so it urgently needed the care of the nobles and nobles in the court.
And regardless of his current momentum because of Princess Xianning, it is not surprising that the Feng family invested in advance.
Thinking of this, Jia Heng couldn't help but recall the information about Luoyang nobles sent by Qianhu in Luoyang.
Luoyang's nobles are, first of all, relatives like the Feng family.
The second is the descendants of the Zheng and Wei vassals, such as county kings, generals who govern the country, generals who assist the country, and generals who serve the country.
The third one is the fourth prince and one uncle who made great contributions in the Taizong Dynasty and Longzhi Dynasty.
The Taizong and Longzhi dynasties granted a total of fourteen princes and five uncles. However, due to the political turmoil of Taizong, Longzhi, and Chongping dynasties and the defeat of Liaodong, only the five princes and two uncles are still alive.
They are the Marquis of Annan, the Marquis of Yangwu, the Marquis of Dingyuan, the Marquis of Pingliang, the Marquis of Yingchuan, and the Bos of Jianchang and Yuzhang.
Except for Annan Hou and Yu Zhangbo who still led troops in the southern provinces, most of the descendants of the other four princes and one uncle did not hold military power, but settled in the big city of Luoyang, and even began to transform into civil servants.
In fact, in addition to losing titles due to crimes, the nobles of the Han Dynasty experienced three losses in total.
The first time was the defeat of Emperor Longzhi in Liaodong. Several leading soldiers and their heirs were directly killed in Liaodong, and the whole country mourned.
The second time was when Emperor Longzhi defeated the deposed prince, he carried out an organized and planned large-scale purge of the martial arts surrounding the deposed prince.
The third time was the connected killings carried out in order to stabilize the imperial power before and after Emperor Chongping ascended the throne.
Several losses also affected the founding nobles such as the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises to a certain extent, reaching the level of the Twelve Marquises and Eight Dukes, but overall they did not damage the foundation of the founding heroes, the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and the Twelve Marquises. Son.
The purges and marginalization of Taizong and Longzhi also objectively resulted in the power of the founders being left unchecked and completely controlling the Fifth Military Governor's Mansion.
While the two were talking, Feng Xian, Feng Lian's son, entered the hall, cupped his hands and said, "Father, our ancestors called for father and Ziyu to come over."
Feng Lian smiled and said: "Let's go, I guess Ziyu is hungry too."
In fact, some people want to ask what is the relationship between this young man and Xianning? Why did Xianning join the army? But when we first met, it was okay to talk about official matters, but it was not appropriate to ask about personal matters.
Jia Heng and Feng Lianzhong came to the "Fuxing Hall" again. At this moment, there were only some Korean concubines, the eldest daughter-in-law Xu, and a few young wives. A few girls were seated behind a landscape screen, and Princess Xianning was in the Korean concubine. The lady sat down.
"Come here." The Korean lady smiled.
Jia Heng called his wife, and then looked at the tall and beautiful girl.
"Sit down." The Korean lady greeted.
Jia Heng thanked her, then sat on the embroidered pier, his eyes falling on the face of the Korean lady to show respect.
At this time, don't look at his young wife sitting aside, but his eyes must not wander.
Mrs. Korea sighed: "Zhi'er told me about the incident in Beijing just now. The emperor was anxious and angry because of the incident in Henan. Alas... you said this matter was causing trouble. After the Taizong Dynasty, there was no such thing. No wonder the emperor is worried about it."
Because fainting from vomiting blood was too ominous, the Korean lady kept silent about it.
Jia Heng also sighed and said: "This time is indeed different from the past. It is still at the ceremony of King Wei's concubine. No matter what, we must calm down the chaos as soon as possible."
"Yes, we need to calm down the chaos as soon as possible and make people's hearts more stable." Mrs. Korea nodded, looked at the young and exaggerated boy opposite, and said with emotion: "You are a capable person. The war in Kaifeng Mansion is about to come." If you are successful, I won't say much else. Our family has been living in Luoyang for a long time. We are not only relatives of the country, but also citizens of the Han Dynasty. If you need any help, Ziyu, please don't be a heretic."
Jia Heng said warmly: "Feng Gong also mentioned to the junior before that he has asked Feng Gong to purchase some military supplies."
In fact, it was impossible for him to accept the free donation from the Feng family. Without him, Emperor Chongping couldn't afford to lose that person. The emperor was rich all over the world, so it was unseemly to go to his uncle's house in the autumn wind.
The Feng family has known this from beginning to end, and is not too worried. However, it can help, and it is much better than most nobles, and what they say is very emotional.
Feng Lian said solemnly: "Don't worry, mother, I've been busy with this matter myself these days."
The Queen Mother of Korea nodded and warned: "You have to be more careful. The Emperor has something happened before, and I don't know how uncomfortable the Queen Mother is. When things here are settled, I will go over and visit her again." That’s it.”
Feng Lian nodded in agreement.
Jia Heng looked at this scene, his eyes flashed thoughtfully.
Empress Dowager Feng's brother passed away, so the bond that maintained Empress Dowager Feng's family ties has actually been severed. So it is easy to understand that the Korean dowager often visits, and it is easy for relatives to fade away if they don't move around.
Looking at the young man opposite, Mrs. Korea said worriedly: "I am thinking that when Xianning comes this time, she will live here in Luoyang City, and it is not easy for her to go to the front line, but she told me that she is four My uncle is in Kaifeng and we need to join the army to look for him. What is going on?"
Jia Heng said: "The guards of Jinyi Mansion have gone to look for him. There is no news yet, but there should be no hindrance. I have sent a careful person to take care of this matter."
"That's good, that's good. Her fourth uncle Jiren has his own destiny, so he should be fine." Mrs. Korea murmured, then looked at the young man opposite and said, "It's hard to blame you for being so early." Be prepared.”
Previously, Princess Xianning had told the story of Jia Heng's predictions in advance, and the Korean Dowager knew the whole story.
At this time, Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "Old lady, the food is now set. Come and take a seat."
"Okay, Ziyu, let's have dinner." Mrs. Korea greeted her.
When we met each other for the first time, we greeted each other with polite greetings.
A few people ate their food and waited for Xu time, then sat together and talked for a while.
Jia Heng glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late, Madam. Your Highness Xianning will stay here for one night. I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow."
Princess Xianning, who had not spoken much just now and just watched Jia Heng talking to the Korean Dowager, heard this and said quickly: "Sir, isn't the army going to leave tomorrow?"
If she stays here, if Mr. leads the army and leaves tomorrow, she won't be able to find him.
Jia Heng also guessed some of Princess Xianning's thoughts and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, Xia Houying will stay here to protect Your Highness. I will come over and pick her up early tomorrow morning, so we can set off together."
The main reason is that the Korean lady is in Luoyang, and the etiquette cannot justify Princess Xianning not staying one night.
Princess Xianning thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
Mrs. Han Han smiled and said: "Zi Yu, you said that Zhi'er is a girl who likes martial arts. When she comes to Xianning in front of the two armies, you have to take good care of her."
Jia Heng nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Madam, I will do it."
Just when Jia Heng was a guest at the house of the Korean Dowager in Luoyang——
Shenjing City, Palace Garden, Kunning Palace
It is already dusk, approaching the hour of Unity.
In the majestic and majestic palace, the lights are bright, as bright as day. The palace maids and chamberlains stand beside the beams, pillars and curtains, holding their breath, waiting for orders.
The Empress of the Song Dynasty, dressed in light yellow palace clothes and a green bun like a cloud, walked in. Her bright eyes under her dark eyebrows looked at Emperor Chongping who was flipping through the Three Kingdoms dialect book, and said with concern: "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."
Emperor Chongping put down the Three Kingdoms story book in his hand, with a complicated expression on his slightly thin face, and sighed again: "If I had known now, why bother at the beginning."
This was the seventh time in two days that the emperor said such words. After the incident, the more the emperor thought about it, the more he regretted it. If he had supported Jia Heng against all the opinions, Kaifeng would not have been breached.
Empress Song sat down and said with relief: "Your Majesty, everyone in the civil and military court said that Zi Yu could not be trusted. It was inevitable that His Majesty would have doubts, but no one wanted to... Besides, even Zi Yu said before that it was just his deduction of the situation in Henan. Your Majesty Don’t be too upset.”
Emperor Chongping's expression softened a little, and he said: "Now it seems that the military and state ministers are not waiting for idlers to make plans."
After this incident, he didn't want it to happen again. The Military Aircraft Department had to tidy up first. Previously, some random people were stuffed in, and the noisy noise covered up the correct voice.
As for the cabinet, government affairs were okay, but in terms of military affairs, after Li Zan went to the north, most of them were civil servants who were not familiar with military affairs.
At this moment, in response to what Jia Heng said, the emperor has begun to reflect on himself. It is not that he, the emperor, is unwise and unwise, it must be a problem with the system!
This is normal human psychology, and as time goes by, those mistakes about oneself will become more and more diluted, until it is only those civil and military officials who deceive Sheng Cong.
Emperor Chongping suddenly asked: "Xu from Zhenguo's family went to the Queen Mother?"
Empress Song said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Zhenguo led her daughter-in-law Chu to kneel down and apologize to the Queen Mother for the matter of Niu Jizong. The Queen Mother has been unable to eat and sleep well for the past two days because of your Majesty's matter. She has not seen her. On."
The emperor vomited blood and fainted due to the falsification of the good news, and Niu Jizong's petition for merit was of course a big responsibility. Mrs. Xu, the wife of Zhenguo, and Mrs. Chu, Niu Jizong's wife, were so frightened that they knelt outside the palace gate yesterday and couldn't afford it. , was later persuaded to leave by the palace officials of Changle Palace, returned home crying, and then came back this afternoon to kneel down to apologize.
Emperor Chongping looked indifferent and said: "The Henan military report is falsified, and Niu Jizong has to submit a memorial to express his merits. In my opinion, Niu Jizong has probably turned traitor and surrendered to the bandits. He is a rebel and a traitor, wearing power!"
"My slave is here." Dai Quan came from not far away at this time, with the white gauze still wrapped around his forehead, his head hung tightly, his face gloomy.
Although the emperor did not blame him, he was the one who delivered the hateful "good news" to the emperor after all. Now everyone in the palace looked at him strangely.
When had his father-in-law ever fallen into such a trap?
"Send the internal guards to confine the town's public house. When the incident in Henan is verified to be true, if there is really any evil deed that ignores the country's favor, is a traitor, deceives the emperor and conceals it, he should be severely punished by law!" Emperor Chongping said with a cold expression.
After fainting, under the persuasion of Empress Song and Empress Dowager Feng, Emperor Chongping had been recuperating his body, but had not yet had time to deal with the affairs of the court. This time, he suddenly thought of Niu Jizong, so he naturally dealt with it first, so as not to cry for mercy again. Seek this intercession.
The so-called strict punishment by law will inevitably lead to the elimination of the Jue Yi tribe, and may become the first noble class among the four founding princes and eight nobles to be executed in succession.
Dai Quan suppressed the urge to bite his back molars and whispered: "Your Majesty, just now the internal police report came from the Internal Security Bureau. The internal guards compared handwriting and arrested and interrogated two bandits who came to deliver military reports. Guo Peng, the commander of the Henan capital, refused to join the bandits and committed suicide. Niu Jizong, the governor of the country, and Qian Yushan, the prefect of Runing Prefecture, turned against the bandits. Runing Prefecture was attacked and destroyed with the assistance of Niu Jizong and Qian Yushan."
Previously, the two messengers sent by Gao Yue to report the news were captured by the Jinyi Mansion in a brothel. After some severe torture, they revealed all the details about the bandits.
When Emperor Chongping heard this, he was startled, his face became gloomy, and he said: "I knew it! If they hadn't rebelled against the thieves, how could the thieves sweep across Henan so easily, causing the situation to become corrupted and out of control! "
At this moment, the emperor seemed to be subconsciously using the word "Jiu" to make up for the mistakes he had not foreseen in his subconscious.
Another sentence, if it weren't for Niu Jizong and Guo Peng's seal, he... wouldn't have been deceived by him and become a laughing stock.
Empress Song quickly advised, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Emperor Chongping's face was livid and he said coldly: "Dai Quan, please pass on my decree. The first-class Bo Niu successor has ignored the favor of the country, turned traitor and deceived the emperor. This is an unforgivable crime. I am expelling the Duke of Zhenguo and the three Yi tribes!" "
Until this moment, the "grievance, anger, shame" and "fear" that he had vomited blood and shortened his life that had been suppressed in Emperor Chongping's heart were now targeted, and he was hit with an iron fist.
Because looking around, all the officials could not catch the punch that wiped out the avenue, and Emperor Chongping also used the sentence "Everyone is guilty, and the crime is mine" to cover up the stupidity from top to bottom.
Of course, whoever dares to say something about sinner's imperial edict is simply too tired of living.
"Your Majesty, the Yi tribe, this... I'm afraid this will only damage the saintliness." Empress Song's snowy face changed slightly and she whispered.
Generally speaking, nobles who committed crimes were exiled and their homes were ransacked, and a number of houses were even returned by divine grace afterwards.
It seems that the Yi Tribe has excessive killing, which harms benevolence and harmony, but in fact, among the ten evil crimes, the three conspiracies are the most important, but the Yi Tribe will not discuss them even if they are eight.
For example, the "Laws of the Han Dynasty" stipulates: "Those who commit treason, treason, or treason will be put to death at a very early age. Grandfathers, fathers, sons, grandsons, brothers, younger brothers, and people living together, regardless of different surnames and uncles, and sons of brothers, are not limited to The same and different nationality, if the person is over ten years old, regardless of serious illness or disability, all will be killed, and the female family members and sons under ten years old will be used as official maids."
In the laws of the Han Dynasty, if there is no specific reference, the three Yi tribes are the father's tribe, the self's tribe, and the son's tribe.
Emperor Chongping said in a deep voice: "If you use virtue instead of power, you will have the audacity to act recklessly and deceive the emperor. If you are not severely punished, what will you do if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and bend yourself to become a thief?"
You can defeat the battle, but you can't help the bandits to deceive the king? How can you bear to join the thieves and bandits to deceive your father?
How can I have the king and father in my heart?
Father Jun is so angry with you that he vomits blood, do you know that?
When Empress Song heard this, Yurong paused, pursed her pink lips, and whispered: "What your Majesty said is true."
She didn't have much advice on matters in the court, but His Majesty hadn't been so angry for several years.
How not to be angry? This is the anger of an emperor after being fooled and deceived.
The more powerful the ruler, the more so. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard that Li Ling had betrayed him, he directly killed his entire family.
If it was just a betrayal, Emperor Chongping might not have gone too far with the punishment, but he had made a mistake earlier. In the dead of night for the past two days, whenever he thought of himself happily taking the military report to share with the ministers, he couldn't think about it!
"Go quickly!"
Dai Quan's voice was a bit colder and he said, "I obey the order."
He clearly hated the Duke of Zhen and his family, and the scar on his head was still aching faintly at this moment.
Seeing the gloomy expression on Emperor Chongping's face, Empress Song remained silent for a moment. Concern was visible on her graceful face, and she persuaded him: "Didn't Ziyu repeatedly say before he left that your majesty should still put the dragon body first? Don't go too far with these things." Get angry."
At this moment, I can only use Jia Ziyu's words to persuade the emperor.
Emperor Chongping waved his hand and said, "Zitong, I know it well."
But he said that in the town's official house, in the flower hall
Niu Jizong's mother, Mrs. Xu, was sitting in the flower hall, surrounded by Niu Jizong's six-bedroom young concubines, Zhu Cui, Niu Jizong's son Niu Cunde and his daughter-in-law Yang.
After a few days of tossing, Niu Jizong's mother Xu's old face was full of worry under her gray hair. She no longer had the sarcastic demeanor of singing a double act with Liu Fang's mother Sun and Nan'an Princess, and just sighed.
Mrs. Chu advised: "Old lady, it's getting dark now, it's time for dinner."
Niu Jizong's son Niu Youde, who is twenty-three or four years old, has a tall body, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a slightly fat face, and is a bit mature. He said: "The old lady's body is tight, so she should eat some."
"Oh, how can I eat it? I don't know how Ji Zong is doing in Henan. There is no news from Henan. I don't know what the Jinyi Mansion does for food. If the news of the defeat had been reported earlier, there would be no news. As for the current turmoil, the Queen Mother in the palace has not seen us." Mrs. Xu sighed and said, feeling more and more angry.
Mrs. Chu frowned and said, "Old lady, didn't the Jia family go to Henan? I don't know if I can see the master. Should I go to the Jia family tomorrow and ask?"
"Don't mention that boy and the Jia family! You get angry just by mentioning it!" Mrs. Xu said in a resentful tone: "It's all the fault of that boy from the Jia family! It wasn't him who took over Ji Zong's Guoyong Camp. Ji Zong took Guo Yong's camp with him. Yongying will not be like this when he goes to Henan. If he is in charge of the Jinyi Mansion, if the defeat report can be reported earlier, he will not send a false victory report at the ceremony of King Wei's concubine. I think it is more likely that he will go to Henan. She will die fighting outside! Then the Jia family was defeated, and her daughter-in-law and those girls from the Jia family were sent to the Jiaofang Department to be ruined!"
Niu Jizong's sixth concubine listened to Xu's cursing and also agreed.
At this moment, a breeze blows from the window, and the lights dance and sway unsteadily, falling on the faces of the concubines in gorgeous clothes and green buns with clouds and clouds. Their faces are terrifying because of the expressions of resentment and resentment.
Mrs. Xu cursed a few times, looked at Mrs. Chu, and asked hurriedly: "What do you think of Duke Li, Duke Zhan, Duke Zhi, and the concubine?"
Mrs. Chu sighed and said: "Other families said there was nothing they could do, but at the Nan'an Mansion, the concubine said that the Queen Mother and the Holy Emperor have been very angry these past two days. After a few days, when the limelight has passed, they can go and help. Our family begs for mercy.”
In these two days, the Niu family almost became the stinking shit of the noble group. Although they did not say they intentionally stayed away, they were prevaricating and perfunctory about the visits of the Xu family and the Chu family, and persuaded them to wait patiently for the palace's treatment.
"Well, I'm afraid that the palace's anger will be brought on us, so we have to think of a way." Mrs. Xu said with a worried look on her face. Suddenly she remembered something and asked: "Where is Princess Beijing? King Beijing is in need now." , and the Zhen family are also relatives of the country, if we can go to the palace to say please, we can overcome this difficulty."
Nan'an and Beijing can be said to be the flags of the four princes and eight princes. Since Nan'an Princess has agreed (perfunctorily), Beijing Princess Zhen Xue will naturally fall in Xu's eyes.
Mrs. Chu sighed: "Princess Beijing said she was not feeling well and closed the door to thank guests. I thought she probably didn't want to see her. The old concubine was lying in the nunnery in the backyard praying for Buddha, and she didn't pay much attention to the affairs in the palace."
Xu: "..."
His face was green and red, and he cursed: "Jizong was busy with Shui Rong's attack on Jue and entered the former military governor's house. Now her family has become ungrateful. She is not feeling well and has closed the door! No wonder she has passed the door a few times. Years, my stomach is not up to par, and I can't give birth to a baby. This is all retribution! What's the use of the old lady praying for blessings? If you ask me, I should get rid of this one who occupies the nest and can't lay eggs. I have to wait until the family is gone. When people come to attack Jue, there is nothing I can do to cry or shed tears at that time."
In response to Mrs. Xu's vicious curse, Mrs. Chu was completely in no mood at the moment. She sighed and said, "Old lady, it's useless to talk about this now. You still have to think of something."
While talking, Mrs. Xu got tired of scolding and sighed: "De'er, your father suffered a defeat. Even though it was a disaster, the title of our ancestors must be preserved."
When Niu Youde heard this, his expression changed and he said, "Grandma, don't worry, my ancestor's title will be preserved!"
At this moment, a nun hurriedly entered the hall, her face extremely flustered.
Mammy said in a trembling voice: "Old lady, what's wrong, there are people coming from the palace, and many people outside, armed with knives and guns, have surrounded the house."
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Chu's expressions changed greatly, and they were about to ask the nanny.
Suddenly, shouts and shouts were heard from the front yard, and then factory guards and policemen with torches rushed in along the corridors on both sides.
"The front hall and the backyard are all fenced, and no one is allowed to let go!" A sharp voice sounded in the low night, like a crow's mute and shrill, and it was clearly the consul and eunuch of the internal police factory.
While he was talking, a large number of internal guards wearing black and red satin clothes and holding sabers came to the brightly lit hall.
Mrs. Xu looked at the black guards and fans in horror, and said, "You, what are you going to do?"
Niu Youde, the son of Niu Jizong, also looked at the fans with a frightened expression, and a vague feeling of something bad arose in his heart.
Most of the other concubines and female family members were hiding behind the screen, their beautiful faces pale. When had they ever seen such a battle?
The chief eunuch held up the imperial edict with a gentle look on his face, unfolded it, and said secretly: "...the grandson of the Duke of Zhen Guo, a first-class Bo Niu, who succeeded the clan and served as a national hero, turned traitor and committed treason, deceived the emperor, and ignored his superiors. The Holy Spirit ordered the Duke of Zhen Guo to remove him from the title. , Yi tribe!"
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she felt five thunders hitting her head, her mouth trembled, her legs went weak, and she collapsed on the spot, her face ashen.
The three Yi tribes?
The Niu family is finished!
"Take it, take it all!" Glancing at the people of the Niu family who were already crying and fighting, the eunuch put away the imperial edict and said coldly.
Not long after, the factory guards came forward and pushed Niu Youde, the son of Niu Jizong, to the ground. Several concubines were also held down mercilessly by the guards, and the children born to the concubines were also pushed down. After that, a large number of factory guards began to attack. After the Niu family manor was searched and arrested, all the men of the Niu family were taken away by the internal guards, put into prison cars, and taken to the prison of the internal police factory. Afterwards, their kinship was screened, and they were either dead or alive, and the female family members were also With all dignity lost, she was pushed into a carriage and taken to the female prison. Afterwards, she was sold to the Jiaofang Department and all the property in the treasury was seized.
For a time, the Niu family was in chaos, and the crying was shocking.
And the news that all the people in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion were arrested by the internal guards was like a hurricane blowing up in the Shenjing City, breaking the strange calm that the Shenjing City had had for the past two days due to the emperor's fainting.
Originally, after Emperor Chongping fainted, the rain was about to come and the thunder would not fall. Now the first thunder finally fell, while the nobles in the Shenjing City were as silent as cicadas.
(End of chapter)
