Xihuamen.
Officials wearing official robes, including students from the Imperial Academy and editors from the Hanlin Academy, knelt at the door and cried to remonstrate.
When the royal chariot approached, Zhu Qiyu did not see the cabinet officials, but heard the seven-step poem first.
"Boil the beans and hold them to make soup, and drain the black beans to make juice. The pods are burning under the cauldron, and the beans are weeping in the cauldron. They all grow from the same root, so why fry each other in a hurry?"
Zhu Qiyu has a big head, and these people are stupid because of their reading, and they don't even know they are being used as a gun.
Looking around, I really saw a few familiar faces. Talents such as Yang Shouchen, Lin E, Qiu Jun, Yin Zhi, Liu Ji, Liu Jue, etc. were all talents that Zhu Qiyu focused on cultivating.
They actually came to join in the fun!
Feng Xiao had already told him that because of the meat bun incident, the Supreme Emperor was suffering from vomiting and diarrhea. The news got out somehow, and the students of the Imperial College were so excited that they came to Xihuamen to cry and remonstrate.
"Whose handiwork is it? Chen Xun? Lin Cong? Or Li Xian? It will really pose a problem for me!"
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "The Imperial College students and Jinshi are going to ruin my future! If I don't handle it well, these Imperial College students and Jinshi will not serve me in the future. It's really a vicious plan!"
When the Xihua Gate opened, I don't know who shouted first: "Your Majesty is here!"
Then the crowd of people kneeling and crying turned to the door.
"Back off! Everyone back off!"
Li Jin drew his sword out of its sheath, and Dongchang Fanzi stood on a human wall to separate people.
"Bah, you bastard!" A young man with a handsome appearance spat on Li Jin's shoes.
Li Jin's entire face was ashen, he was an honorable minister, the uncle of Xiangcheng! Not fanzi!
But he didn't dare to have an attack. The students of the Imperial College were all good at reading. Nowadays, the civil servants are very powerful. If the civil servants were offended because of such a trivial matter, his Xiangcheng residence would not be able to withstand the pressure and would have to sulk on his own.
Zhu Qiyu did not get off the chariot and looked down at all living beings.
"You, stand up!" Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and pointed at the young man who was swearing and spitting.
"See Your Majesty!"
The handsome young man was polite, behaved like a scholar, and did not kneel when he saw the emperor. He was quite charming.
"Is this how your teacher taught you Mianjun?"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed: "Come here, bring his teacher and tell the Imperial Academy to bring all the officials, ministers, prime ministers, and classics to Xihuamen!"
"Your Majesty, how can you go to all the trouble to come here to offer sacrifices and wine just because of the courtesy of a child? This is not the way of a wise king! Please answer our questions, and we should leave!" A slightly older man wearing a scholar's shirt The people shook their heads and talked, with ups and downs, as if they were endorsing.
"What's your name?" Zhu Qiyu looked at him with interest.
"In Zhou Jin's case, he was elected in the 14th year of orthodoxy." Zhou Jin looked proud.
"Zhou Jin, Juren, fourteen years of orthodoxy!"
"Someone, go check it out!"
"Check this Zhou Jin, how did he pass the examination? Who was the examiner that year? Who was the examiner? Who appointed him to be the examiner?"
"Check it out for me!"
"How did he read the scriptures? Is this how the scriptures teach him to meet his father? Who does he think I am? His father?"
"I'm talking, and even the chief minister of the dynasty doesn't dare to interrupt me! You're just trying to win a job, so you're so complacent that you can show off your cruelty and interrupt me!"
"Then you actually want to question me! Do you want me to give you the answer?"
"I am the king and father of all the people in the world! Will you question your father? Do you think studying and studying will teach you how to be rebellious?"
"Come here! I will fire all the officials who selected him as a scholar, a scholar, and accepted him into the Imperial Academy! They will be sent to the army!"
"Shu Liang! Check for me! Why did he join forces outside the Xihua Gate to force me to marry him!"
"Check! Check to the end!"
boom!
There was an uproar in front of Xihua's door, everyone was dumbfounded.
Countless supervisors were full of regrets, and they all said their opinions without blaming others. No one expected that as soon as the emperor came, he would arrest one person first and find out a series of people!
It’s okay for him to suffer alone, and all the officials who interact with him will also be affected! Can his family still be in good health?
Isn’t it said that the emperor is the wise king of the world? Don’t they all say that Emperor Zhenguan is still alive? Why, why does he look more and more like Emperor Yang of Sui?
They were all a bit put off.
"come here!"
Zhu Qiyu pointed at the handsome prison student. The prison student's legs were a little weak and he knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Lick your spit clean."
Zhu Qiyu pointed at the thick phlegm on Li Jin's feet and said coldly: "Do you know who he is?"
"He is Xiangcheng Bo Li Jin. You may not know his name, but his brother's name is Li Zhen! Xiangcheng Bo Li Zhen! Li Zhen died in Tumu Fort and died for the Ming Dynasty!"
"His father's name is Li Long. He followed Emperor Taizong on many expeditions to Mobei! He was loyal to the country!"
"His grandfather's name is Li Jun, and he is the hero of Jingnan!"
"You called him a bitch and spit on his shoes! Then I ask you, who do you think you are!"
Zhu Qiyu was furious: "You can see the king but not worship him! I don't blame you! But you can't insult the heroes of the country! This is disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty!"
"I want to ask you, what did you learn at the Imperial College? Was it to bully others? Or did you look down on the veteran generals and ministers who fought for the country just because you read a few books? Is this what the Imperial College teaches?"
"Come here! Remove him from the post of Imperial Supervisor and Supervisor, send him back to his place of origin, and never hire him again! If the family goes up ten generations, anyone who is an official will be dismissed! Never hire him! If there is a businessman, he will be killed!"
"ah?"
The handsome young man turned pale and fell to the ground.
Dongchang Fanzi wanted to drag him away, but Zhu Qiyu hooked his fingers and said, "Let him lick it clean and then drag him away!"
Li Jin was greatly moved. He was even more moved by the fact that the emperor knew so much about Uncle Xiangcheng's lineage.
"No need, no need." Li Jin couldn't stand the tongue of scholars. Nowadays, all kinds of people are inferior but only scholars are good, so he subconsciously wants to hide.
"No need to hide, he owes you this!"
Seeing the fear on his face, Zhu Qiyu comforted him in a low voice: "Uncle Xiangcheng, don't worry, I will support you!"
Li Jin is really scared. Nowadays, his honor has declined, and Uncle Xiangcheng is no longer as prosperous as his ancestors. Naturally, it is better to do less than to do more.
The prison guards were frightened by this scene.
No one dared to shout, and no one dared to recite a seven-step poem. Those holding Xuanzong's spiritual tablets wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it. The emperor was too cruel!
They regretted being incited and came to Xihuamen to cry and remonstrate.
"Yang Shouchen, Lin E, Qiu Jun, Yin Zhi, Liu Ji, Liu Jue! Stop bowing your heads, I have seen you!"
"Why did you come to cry and remonstrate?"
"Are you feeling resentful and dissatisfied with me?"
Zhu Qiyu directly named them. These were all Jinshi during the Jingtai period. Zhu Qiyu had always wanted to cultivate these people into confidants.
Who would have thought that they would also be encouraged to come to Xihua Gate to cry and remonstrate, embarrassing me, the emperor!
"I don't dare!" Yin Zhi regretted in his heart, he was still too young.
"Don't you dare? I see you are very brave! Yin Zhi, tell me, which master did you recite just now? Recite it loudly again!" Zhu Qiyu's voice was sharp.
"Chen, minister..." Yin Zhi later regretted it.
"read!"
Yin Zhi gritted his teeth and read: "Boil the beans to make soup, and drain the black beans to make juice."
"louder!"
"The beetles are burning under the cauldron, and the beans are weeping in the cauldron. They are born from the same root, so why rush to fry each other?" Yin Zhi closed his eyes in despair.
"I understand, you are scolding me!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Tell me, why are you scolding me? Why did I kill my brother? Ah?"
No one dared to answer the cry, for fear of saying the wrong thing and ending up with the same fate as those two classmates.
"You are the supervisors of the Imperial College and the future of the Ming Dynasty. I have never been punished for my words and I speak freely. I don't blame you!" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.
No one dares to say yet.
"If you don't tell me, I will return to the palace."
"Wan Sheng has something to ask Your Majesty!" Someone finally stood up, and he was an acquaintance.
Li Dongyang!
He was known as a child prodigy and entered Shuntianfu School at the age of eight. Zhu Qiyu personally inspected him, which showed that he valued him. After that, he summoned Li Dongyang to the palace to give lectures every year.
"Speak!" Zhu Qiyu stroked his beard.
"Wansheng heard rumors that His Majesty gave the emperor some meat buns to eat. After eating them, the emperor suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, but no good doctor could treat him. Now he is seriously ill. When our supervisors heard this, their internal organs were all burned. The Tian family is an example to the world. Your Majesty and the Supreme Emperor are flesh and blood brothers, so we, the supervisors, kneel at the door and cry to remonstrate, because we hope that the heavenly family will be harmonious, brothers and sisters will be respectful to each other, and we will set an example for our subjects!" Li Dongyang spoke clearly and every word was precise.
"You are here to cry and remonstrate because of this incident?" Zhu Qiyu looked at the other supervisors.
"Your Majesty, yes!" someone responded.
"Hahaha, so that's what happened!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled: "All living beings, have you ever been criticized?"
When this word was mentioned, everyone was as afraid as a tiger. One supervisor whispered: "How is eating people different from animals?"
"You're right. How can humans eat humans?"
"You have never eaten it, so where can I get it? I am a benevolent king, not a violent king. I cannot chop a living person into minced meat, steam it into steamed buns, and feed it to the Supreme Emperor, right?"
"Besides, there is a kitchen in the Southern Palace of the Supreme Emperor. There are hundreds of people working in the kitchen and more than a thousand people serving in the palace. If I ask the Supreme Emperor to eat, will the Supreme Emperor just eat it?"
"Haha, this is a joke."
"Speaking of doctors, there really aren't any. Originally this was a secret, and the court didn't plan to make it public. But since everyone is kneeling before me, I'll let them know."
"The Imperial Doctors Wu Tong, Xu Biao and others poisoned me and killed me, and the envoy of the Imperial Hospital disappeared, so all the Imperial Doctors of the Imperial Hospital were sent to Fusi Prison in Beizhen and are under review!"
"There is indeed no imperial physician in the palace at this time! Not one!"
boom!
The entire Xihuamen was in an uproar again, and the supervisors realized that something big had happened.
The imperial doctor killed the emperor, and the palace was in ruins. They knew with their toes that something big had happened, but they were incited and came to the Xihua Gate to cry and remonstrate. Isn't this just pointing the finger at the gun?
"I am very relieved that the supervisors are willing to be the Supreme Emperor and cry to me for advice!"
Zhu Qiyu's expression was high and he stood up from the chariot: "I see your courage, I see the hope of the Ming Dynasty!"
"But do you know?"
"On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I almost passed away and went to see the late emperor!"
"Look at the imperial palace! It's not hard to find that the entire imperial city has become a battlefield!"
"And the entire capital city is still under martial law until now!"
"That's right!"
"On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month! The Supreme Emperor led Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen, Liu Yongcheng and more than a thousand people to attack Donghua Gate!"
"My life is hanging by a thread, even Shi Biao's arrow is on my neck!"
Zhu Qiyu pointed at his neck: "Just a little bit, the Supreme Emperor will drive me off the throne!"
"Do you know? The Emperor who you have been thinking of, pitying, and worrying about is almost sitting in the Fengtian Palace, being worshiped by all the people and shouting long live!"
Plop!
Some prison guards fell limply to the ground, and many were too frightened to breathe.
Rebellion!
Everyone knew something was wrong, but the Supreme Emperor actually led his troops to attack the palace gate? And they actually interceded for the rebels? This is the grave crime of killing the nine tribes!
"Don't worry, those who don't know are not guilty. I won't blame you! I am definitely not a violent king!"
"This is a secret that is not told in the court! It is also a scandal of the Heavenly Family and should not have been spread among the people!"
"However, you are all the pillars of Ming Dynasty and patriotic people. I can't bear to deceive you!"
"It is precisely because I care about my family ties that I let the Emperor go, but I don't want someone with ulterior motives to concoct rumors about meat buns. It's really deplorable!"
Zhu Qiyu pretended to be angry: "Wouldn't it be more satisfying if I ignored my family ties and killed him directly?"
"Why use some meat buns to disgust people? If I use that kind of thing, wouldn't I be infamy for eternity? Can I do it?"
"If you don't believe me, go to Nangong and ask if there are any meat buns!"
"I'll tell you one more thing!"
"Today! Du Qing, the royal chef of Shangshi Bureau, poisoned my concubine!"
All the supervisors opened their mouths. If the imperial concubine was killed, they would definitely be mourning. It couldn't be a lie.
"If there are really any steamed buns, it might be a trick of Shangshi Bureau!"
"This is going to stir up unrest in the Ming Dynasty! It will make the world shake!"
"Everyone must have already known that the 50,000-strong Wala army marched south, and their horses trampled on the town of Xuan. Now the town of Xuan is in danger, and the capital is in turmoil."
"However, please do not panic. I have ordered the young master to lead an army of 150,000 troops from the capital to rush to Xuanzhen, and I will not let Wala take any advantage!"
"The town is safe, and the capital is safe! It's just a trick of some villains! Peace of mind, everyone!"
"Oh, it's hard for me to be the emperor!"
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Everyone!"
"I don't want to say too much. I have never complained to anyone in the eight years since I became emperor. In the fourteenth year of Zhengtong's reign, when Ola was besieging the city, I stepped forward! Turn the tide before it fell, and help the country to fall!"
"I have been in the imperial court for eight years. I have been working hard every day and taking care of all kinds of things. My hair has turned gray, but I have never complained to anyone!"
"Yu Shaofu, the Minister of the Ministry of War, said that I am a benevolent king through the ages, and the ministers in the cabinet praised me as a wise king through the ages. I deserve it!"
"I carry the legacy of my ancestors and shoulder trillions of lives. I should work conscientiously and not dare to slack off for a moment!"
"This is my responsibility! I can't shirk it! And I can't find anyone to complain to! I can't ask anyone to take credit for it!"
"Because these are what I should do!"
"I am the emperor and the father of all people in the world!"
Zhu Qiyu changed the topic: "But do you know why the Supreme Emperor raised troops from Nangong to rebel against me?"
"It's all because of the legal battle!"
"Just because I discovered the secret that the Supreme Emperor has hidden for many years, I can't tell it. Because the matter involves the Queen Mother, I can't ruin the reputation of my legitimate mother! I can't tell it!"
Zhu Qiyu sat down slumped: "Everyone, this is all I have to say. Everyone, please go back."
Finished?
That's what you said!
Everyone is curious. The emperor had just aroused the curiosity of the kneeling supervisor and the Hanlin Academy scholar, but he told him that it was over?
If you can't say a word, it's over?
Involving the Empress Dowager and the Supreme Emperor, these palace secrets are definitely the most explosive gossip news among the people.
It's really uncomfortable to hang like this. Everyone is scratching their hearts and wants to know very much.
The key point is that no one dares to force the emperor to reveal the secrets of the Tian family, right?
"His Majesty!"
Just when Zhu Qiyu was about to speak, he saw Lin Cong running over quickly, shouting loudly, completely ignoring etiquette, asking everyone to get out of the way, and then kneeling on the ground: "Your Majesty, Lin Cong!"
He is interrupting Zhu Qiyu!
This is the legal system of Baozhuqi Town!
Lin Cong, you made it too obvious. I didn’t plan to say it anymore. If I explain it completely, it will lose its interest. Don’t underestimate the imagination of folk scholars. They will write about the secrets of the palace even more mysteriously. , more interesting than the truth, must be beyond everyone’s imagination, the kind that will surprise everyone.
"Mr. Lin Ge, do you want to take care of my chat with other students?"
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "That's it, everyone, I'm going back to the palace."
Lin Cong's whole face turned green!
The students in the Imperial College were all looking at him the same way they were looking at Cao Cao. The civil servants talked about the Lord of Heaven and Earth every day, but you ended up becoming a powerful minister?
"Your Majesty, I forgive you, I have no other intention!" Lin Cong quickly apologized.
"I don't have any other intentions, Mr. Lin Ge."
Zhu Qiyu's voice was low and he waved his hand: "Go back."
The imperial chariot turned around and the gate of Xihua Gate creaked shut.
"Mr. Lin Ge, are you deceiving me?" Li Dongyang took a step forward and roared loudly.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Lin Cong was all alert, as if he had shot himself in the foot!
"Your Majesty is a benevolent king. The students knelt down and cried to remonstrate with them. Your Majesty was not angry. He was approachable and chatted with them about their daily lives! Comfort them all! But why did Mr. Lin Ge force him to return to the palace when he first arrived! Could it be that Mr. Lin Ge oppressed your Majesty and wanted to Are you being reckless?" Li Dongyang's face was full of dissatisfaction.
Lin Cong almost fell down. He finally contacted and lured the supervisors and Hanlin Academy scholars, who wanted to cause trouble for the emperor.
Who would have thought that these people he had instigated would actually point their fingers at him. They were unjust!
"Your Majesty, please stay!" Lin Cong regretted it after saying this.
Because the chariot really stopped.
The supervisors were excited. Isn't this true? Is Lin Cong being reckless?
"Don't be angry, everyone. Mr. Lin Ge is not Cao Cao or Wang Mang. Don't blame Mr. Lin Ge. It's all my fault!"
It's okay if Zhu Qiyu doesn't speak, but his words are a real statement!
"Your Majesty is the king and father of all the people in the world, how can you do anything wrong? Wan Sheng, please ask your Majesty to remove Lin Cong!" Li Dongyang knelt down.
"Remove Lin Cong!"
"Expelled from Beijing!"
"All the traitors and traitors should be killed!"
The supervisors were excited and filled with righteous indignation.
Lin Cong's heart sank to the bottom, his eyes rolled, and he fainted.
Are you doing this again?
"Quickly, send Mr. Lin Ge to the Taiyuan Hospital..."
When Zhu Qiyu said this, he felt happy. There was no imperial doctor in the imperial hospital. By the way, Ai Gaofeng seemed to be still alive. I wonder if he and Zhu were happy.
"By the way, Xuan Ai Gao Gao! Find Ai Gao Gao quickly and treat his illness for Mr. Lin Ge!"
After carrying Lin Cong down, Zhu Qiyu sighed: "It's a joke for everyone. I will finish the story about the Supreme Emperor. It is inconvenient to say more..."
Li Dongyang gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please give me the imperial edict on clothes and belts! I would like to invite the border troops to join the King Qin in Beijing!"
Many prison guards knelt down and the crowd was excited.
Damn it, it’s overacted!
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "It's not as serious as Zhu Sheng thought. Cabinet ministers Chen Xun, Wang Zhi, Lin Cong, Li Xian, ministers Hu Yan, Yu Qian, Zhang Feng, Yu Shiyue, censors Yao Kui, Wang Hong, minister Cheng Xin, etc. , the honorable ministers Zhu Yi, Zhu Yong, Zhang Fu, Guo Sheng, Wang Ji, Luo Tong, etc. are all loyal ministers! I firmly believe it!"
All the students were stunned when they heard this. This is a traitor from the entire court!
In their eyes, is the emperor just a puppet on strings?
Do they all want to do something reckless? It’s too much!
Why do you feel that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is in better condition than His Majesty!
"Students, study hard and serve the country!"
Zhu Qiyu forcibly changed the subject: "You students of the Hanlin Academy, you are all the pillars of the imperial court, the future prime ministers and assistants, and the important ministers of the world. I have high hopes for you, and I hope you will only support me! Another day... I will personally summon you. , appreciate it!”
"That's it, I'm back."
Qiu Jun, Yin Zhi and others' eyes were red. The emperor's situation was not as good as that of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty! We righteous people, how long will King Buqin wait for us?
Zhu Qiyu's words became the spark that set off the powder keg.
The students of the Imperial College were furious: "We swear to protect the emperor! Your Majesty is a wise king through the ages, how can you allow powerful ministers to trample on you!"
"Your Majesty is in dire straits and must be rescued!"
Li Dongyang looked fierce: "We must work together to rescue His Majesty from the pit of fire! This is the way to be a minister!"
"After your majesty is rescued, I will ask your majesty to compile a record of traitors! Write down all the traitors in the court!"
"What a good idea, compile a record of traitors!"
"Your Majesty, please compile the record of traitorous ministers, and wait for me to invite the border troops to the capital to serve the king!"
The students of the Imperial College followed suit and chanted.
Li Xian, who was peeping on the side, turned blue. If the emperor really compiled a record of traitorous ministers, they would probably be selected!
broken!
Originally, they wanted to stop the emperor from spreading rumors about the emperor by kneeling at the door and crying. However, the emperor turned back and branded them as traitors. He also spread the scandal about the empress dowager and the emperor...
Li Xian quickly went to find Lin Cong. When he saw Lin Cong, Lin Cong had disheveled hair and eyes spitting fire, like a wild beast.
Looking at the limping imperial doctor, what kind of medicine did the emperor give Lin Ge?
The key point is that Lin Cong stared at Li Xian, his eyes were red and his chest was heaving. Li Xian was startled. He ran away. It's over, it's over, what happened to Mr. Lin Ge!
…
"Your Majesty, Liu Xuan, Chen Xun and others have arrived at the Imperial Academy's offering ceremony." Jin Zhong spoke in a low voice.
Now there are two sacrificial wines in the Imperial College. Because in the fourth year of Jingtai, Liu Xuan's adoptive mother passed away, and he asked Chen Xun to take over. After Liu Xuan returned, the original owner couldn't bear to abandon him, so he and Chen Xun It is also listed as a sacrificial wine for the Imperial College.
"Let them wait outside the Qianqing Palace." Zhu Qiyu originally wanted to impose a heavy punishment, but found that the gun of the Imperial College was very easy to use, and he could do it with a little tidying up.
Entered Qianqing Palace.
Xu Gan reported that the imperial concubine was in Dongnuan Pavilion and was not in a good mood.
Zhu Qiyu frowned. This spy lurking in Qianqing Palace must be dug out, otherwise it will be difficult to sleep and eat well.
"Tell the noble concubine that I will explain to her after I finish my work." Zhu Qiyu sighed. It is difficult for an upright official to interrupt household affairs.
It's all Tang Xing's fault. You can't support the wall with mud, but you also caused disharmony between the Tian family husband and wife. You are guilty and should be punished!
Enter Xinuang Pavilion.
Cao Jixiang, Liu Jing, and Tang Xing were all still kneeling.
Sitting on the couch, Zhu Qiyu took the ginseng soup sent by Jin Zhong and took a few sips: "Liu Jing, tell me."
Liu Jing held his heart tightly, even if it continued to bleed, he didn't care, as long as his heart was still there, that was fine.
But the hand he held covering his heart only had a palm, no fingers.
Tang Xing didn't dare to look at him at all. He was almost going crazy from the torture, especially when the emperor forced him to open his eyes and see his heart. The feeling was even worse than killing him.
"The commander of the Jinyi Guards Command is Tongzhi Wu Liang, Qianhu Ma Yujin, and..."
Liu Jing actually said more than seventy names in one go.
It's a pity that there are no heavyweights.
This Wu Liang was the Jin Yiwei who welcomed Zhu Qizhen back to the court. He had a close relationship with Zhu Qizhen, and Zhu Qiyu knew it.
It seemed that Liu Jing didn't understand what he meant. Zhu Qiyu coughed lightly: "Where is Wang Xi?"
Wang Xi is the third person in Jinyiwei. (Historically, he was the commander of the flag-bearing guard)
In the entire Jinyiwei, Menda, Liu Jing and Wang Xi are three pillars. Don't look at Zhang Yong, the admiral of Jinyiwei. If he doesn't knock down these three mountains and kill all their henchmen, Zhang Yong will never be able to control Jinyiwei in his life.
The same goes for Zhang Yong, who is more loyal than capable.
He actually introduced Liu Jing as his confidant and relied on Liu Jing to control the Jin Yiwei. The result was a joke. Liu Jing was from Zhu Qizhen!
You helped Zhu Qizhen recruit a group of confidants in Jinyiwei and silently served Zhu Qizhen.
"I beg your majesty to have mercy! I don't ask your majesty to let me go, I just ask your majesty to leave some blood for me! Please your majesty!" Liu Jing cried and kowtowed.
Leave him to take revenge?
"Is Wang Xi your accomplice?" Zhu Qiyu asked directly. Anyway, the shit basin must be buckled, so just buckle it.
"yes!"
Liu Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Wang Xi is the one who wooed me. Wang Xi accompanied the delegation to welcome the Supreme Empress. He was resentful of Your Majesty and wanted to welcome the restoration of the Supreme Emperor, so he wooed me!"
Wise man! It would be great to be used by me, but it's a pity.
"Jin Zhong, why don't you go arrest him!" Zhu Qiyu raised the corner of his mouth.
Only by knocking down the three mountains of Jinyiwei can we rebuild. Only money and time are left for reconstruction. It is enough to provide enough funds and set aside time.
Jinyiwei is about to return to my hands!
Zhu Qiyu breathed a long sigh of relief.
"My slave obeys the order!" Jin Zhong sent someone away.
"Your Majesty, my family..." Liu Jing looked at the emperor with hope.
"Let's all go on the road together."
Liu Jing's eyes widened suddenly and he was furious: "Zhu Qiyu! How dare you lie to me! How dare you lie to me!"
Bang!
Jin Zhong kicked him directly and roared: "How dare you scold the emperor! Hold him down, and we will cut out his heart to see if it is black!"
He took a sharp knife, skillfully cut open the flesh, then put his hand in and pulled out a still beating heart!
Liu Jing stared blankly at his still beating heart, this, is this mine?
The key is that he is not dead yet?
Tang Xing's eyes widened, frightened by such a horrifying scene, his eyes darkened, and he fainted.
"You also deserve a red heart?"
Jin Zhong opened Liu Jing's mouth and stuffed his heart into his mouth!
"Drag him out and feed the dog!"
Jin Zhong's face was covered with blood, but he knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I am willing to kill all the disloyal people for you!"
"Yeah, well done."
Zhu Qiyu sighed. He really didn't understand why these people were so obsessed with following the dragon's merits and reaching the sky in one step. Couldn't they just do their jobs and be promoted based on merit? I insisted on welcoming the emperor and clinging to the dragon and the phoenix, but in the end I wasted your life.
It's just that this kind of person doesn't deserve sympathy.
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Tang Xing and said displeasedly: "Throwing him awake, how can he be so frightened by this little battle? Trash!"
Jin Zhong doesn't care whether Tang Xing is a relative of the emperor or not. Anyway, he will do whatever the emperor asks him to do, regardless of the flood!
With a crash, Tang Xing was woken up.
Seeing that the place where Liu Jing was kneeling just now was empty, with only blood left, he suddenly felt sad and cried bitterly.
"What? Are you crying for the traitor?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered.
If you were not Tang Guifei's father, you would have died ten thousand times! All nine tribes should die!
"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Tang Xing kowtowed frantically.
"waste!"
"I am a waste, I am a waste! Please have mercy, Your Majesty!" Tang Xing cried bitterly.
"That's all, I won't embarrass you anymore."
"No matter what, you are also Concubine Tang's father. No matter how harshly I blame you, I'm afraid Concubine Tang will also resent me."
"Tang Xing, you soiled my carpet, please forgive me!"
Zhu Qiyu was almost driven crazy, acting a bit like a little bastard collecting protection money.
The royal family has a lot of money, but it only needs a carpet. It's just an excuse to ask for money. Zhu Qiyu is the emperor, so he can't say it too openly. You have to watch Tang Xing understand it.
Tang Xing couldn't keep up with the emperor's rhythm. He scratched his hair and said cautiously: "I will give you one hundred taels?"
"One hundred taels? My carpet is worth only one hundred taels? Drag it out! Drag it out!" Zhu Qiyu was furious.
Your Tang Xing family spent more than one hundred taels on a meal! You soiled my carpet, so why bother to pay me a hundred taels? I'm sending out beggars!
"No, no, no, two hundred taels, no, one thousand taels! One thousand taels!" Tang Xing was frightened when he saw the look in Zhu Qiyu's eyes, so he quickly spent money to ensure his safety.
"Jin Zhong, drag him out and perform an autopsy! I don't want to see him!"
Zhu Qiyu was furious.
Look at this poor relative!
I will grant you a title, enjoy your salary for generations to come, and rest with the country!
He is still the father-in-law of the country, my father-in-law! I encountered difficulties, and you actually gave me one thousand taels?
Use one thousand taels to repay my kindness? There are more people than this when you go out to make tea and hang flowers!
In your eyes, I am not as good as the foster daughter of a brothel!
Should be killed! Should be killed!
"Your Majesty, no! Your Majesty!"
Tang Xing kowtowed and said: "I am willing to give you five thousand taels! No more, my family really doesn't have that much money! Your Majesty, you must also be considerate of me, my family really has no money!"
"Cut him open and search the house!"
Zhu Qiyu is too lazy to talk nonsense. How many times have I wiped your butt?
The fertile land you occupy can produce thousands of taels of silver a year! Are you telling me lies? Do you think I'm a fool?
Five thousand taels, thank you for having the nerve to say it!
I have raised you for so many years, and I finally opened my mouth, but you actually sent me away to beg for food!
This world belongs to me! I can give it to you! You can get it back too!
"Your Majesty, please be merciful. For the sake of the Imperial Concubine, please spare me, please spare the Tang family..." Tang Xing burst into tears.
Speaking of the imperial concubine, Zhu Qiyu sighed. It is difficult for an upright official to take care of household chores. He gritted his teeth and said, "That's all, for the sake of the imperial concubine, I will let you live!"
"One million taels, if one tael is less, I will sell your family's meat in the market!"
"Tomorrow, I will ask your people from the East Factory to get the money. Don't bargain with me!"
Zhu Qiyu shouted fiercely.
Tang Xing rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Wake up! Dip the pig cage! They deserve to be killed! They all deserve to be killed!"
"I raise you, promote you, give you titles, and give you power!"
"Is this how you repay me?"
"The heart of a wolf and the lungs of a dog! The ambition of a wolf! They are all beasts! They are worse than dogs!"
Zhu Qiyu got angry for a while. He was also crazy because he was short of money. He wanted to borrow some from the Tang family and return it to him when he had more money. I also hate that iron cannot become steel. I am really angry that my good relatives cannot be used by myself. They are stupid and stupid.
He sat slumped on the ground and said lonely: "Jin Zhong, am I too harsh on my relatives? After all, he is the father of the imperial concubine and my relative. Although he is a little confused, he has not made any big mistakes. Am I too harsh?" Are you blaming your relatives harshly?"
Jin Zhong knelt down and didn't dare to speak. He didn't dare to interfere in this kind of Tian family matter.
"That's all, just 50,000 taels, I'm too merciful, alas."
Zhu Qiyu let out a long sigh and entered the inner hall: "I'm tired, let's take a nap."
"Your Majesty is merciful!" Jin Zhong shouted.
But Tang Xing, who had just woken up, fainted again. Is this merciful? Where do you want us to get fifty thousand taels of silver? It would be better to kill him directly with a knife!
He suddenly thought of something, and regardless of his image, he shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Hang Yu's family is rich! Hang Yu's family is richer than mine!"
"Then each family will contribute 50,000 taels!" Zhu Qiyu didn't want to support his relatives anymore. If you have any resentment, just resent it. I'll kill the goose to get the egg, because I just want money! They are all trash anyway. Those who cannot stand up to the wall will at most get a bad reputation for treating their relatives harshly. A bad reputation is just a bad reputation. I am tired.
Tang Xing's eyes darkened. He could only go to his daughter to ask the imperial concubine to say something nice and beg your majesty to reduce some money. The family really couldn't afford so much money.
"Jin Zhong, wait for me to lay down your pillow."
Zhu Qiyu had just sat on the bed when he suddenly remembered that there was someone kneeling in Xinuang Pavilion.
Why does Cao Jixiang have no sense of existence at all? I ignore him every time. This kind of person is very suitable for assassination. You can't keep this kind of person around, it's too dangerous.
"Go get some food first and then go to sleep later."
Zhu Qiyu came out again, sat back on the couch, and looked at Cao Jixiang: "Don't be afraid, I won't kill you. If Cao Qin dies, he will die. Anyway, you have many nephews, Cao Xuan, Cao Duo, Cao, I don't need to tell them one by one." Count it, right? If one dies, then the other dies, it’s not a big grudge, right?”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Cao Jixiang breathed a sigh of relief and kept kowtowing to express his gratitude.
"You are very useful. I won't kill you, but you have to tell me where the artillery used by the Supreme Emperor to attack the palace gate came from?"
This thing has always stuck in my throat.
The Ordnance Bureau is where he is most worried, because most firearms are developed and produced by the Ordnance Bureau.
Then it was equipped to the Shenji Battalion. The commander of the Shenji Battalion was Yang Neng, the nephew of Yang Hong, the Duke of Ying, and the cousin of Yang Xin, the commander-in-chief of Xuanzhen.
The source of artillery for Shi Heng's rebels was the Ordnance Bureau or the Shenji Battalion.
Cao Jixiang was about to speak.
Shu Liang came in in a hurry, with excitement on his face: "Your Majesty, there is a clue! I have found the clue!"
