Now that it's come to this point, maybe it's for the sake of his family. Wen Taiyi didn't hide anything and said anything. Even the affair between Huang Qiong and Zhang Qiaoer was simply revealed. However, he also knew that it would be useless to talk more about this matter, and he did not want to cause trouble to his family, so he just passed it by and did not embarrass Huang Qiong too much.
He thought very calmly when he said the next words: "So, you also provided certain protection to those two families. But when it came to the actual resettlement, although you didn't trust me, you handed it over to the Zongzheng Temple at that time. Before you, King Tiaoyong, took over as Zongzhengqing, Nanzhen Fusi had always had great surveillance power over Zongzheng Temple, and the people who made mistakes in the clan were basically sent by Nanzhen Fusi."
"So, I took this opportunity to insert a group of people directly into their mansion. Of course, I am the only one who knows the identities of these people in Jingzhao Mansion. They are all the people I have been working with in Nanzhen. Si’s absolute confidant has always only listened to my orders, and only recognizes me in the capital. Not to mention King Yong, even the other people in Nanzhen Fusi don’t know their true identities.”
Speaking of this, Wen Tai also looked at Huang Qiong who was deep in thought, but smiled softly and said: "It seems that you, the emperor, do not understand the rights and responsibilities of Nanzhen Fusi well enough. Today I can tell you You, the target of surveillance and arrest by Nanzhen Fusi are not only officials in the world, but also martial arts figures and clans are one of the most important targets of surveillance. Those of your ancestors are all suspicious people."
"Their precautions against the clan are not as high as those of the military attachés who hold military power. However, due to their reputation, all superficial matters are left to Zongzheng Temple. But private arrests, surveillance and custody are still left to Nanzhen Fusi Come and deal with it. What does Nanzhen Fusi do? Isn’t it just to do the dirtiest and most shameful things for the emperors of your Huang family? "
"As the commander-in-chief of Nanzhen Fusi, is it difficult to do something about this? So, things are so simple. Sometimes, the simpler the method, the more effective it is. You are all dead Now, the new king has ascended the throne. The situation in the court has changed. If you were in your family or your family, or loyal to a dead man, how do you think they would choose?"
Hearing Wen Taiyi's explanation, even though he knew he was right. Many times, the simpler methods are more effective. But Huang Qiong was still so angry that she almost kicked him to death. Huang Qiong stood up, full of anger and had nowhere to vent, and called Gao Huaiyuan waiting outside the door to come in. Ask him to give Wen Taiyi a pen and paper, and ask him to write down the people who will be placed next to the generals on the front line, then slam the door and walk out.
But before leaving, Huang Qiong hesitated and took a look at Wen Taiyi's family. The two were imprisoned very close to each other, but they could not see each other all the time. During the period of imprisonment, just to shake Wen Taiyi's mind, he was only allowed to see his family members from a distance every five days. During the rest of the day, even if you are very close to your family, you are not allowed to see them.
After leaving the room where Wen Taiyi was talking, he arrived at the courtyard where Wen's family was imprisoned in less than a hundred steps. Huang Qiong did not take Nangong Zhen or any of his guards with him, but was accompanied by the yard manager as he entered the yard. Huang Qiong sighed softly when he saw the old, weak, women and children kneeling down on the ground when they knew he was coming. In the struggle for power, there is never a crime less important than that of the wife and children. The fundamental thing is to eradicate the root cause.
If he was the one who failed, I'm afraid his wife and children would also suffer the same fate. After signaling all the kneeling people to stand up, Huang Qiong walked to Wen Taiyi's side, the daughter who was only five years old. He looked at the child who was clinging to his mother's hand and looking at him with a pair of big, beautiful but frightened eyes. After touching the child's head, Huang Qiong just sighed and turned to leave.
But just before Huang Qiong left, a woman's voice came from behind: "Your Majesty, stay here. I'm just a second-grade bachelor. I spend all my time buried in old papers. I don't know what crime I committed? How can I be punished?" Your Majesty, the entire Wen family has been ransacked and imprisoned. My concubine, I would like to boldly ask you what crime I have committed and where is I being detained now? What are Your Majesty's plans to do with us?"
Hearing the questioning voice from behind, Huang Qiong turned around and saw an unusually beautiful woman in her thirties. She was pushing away the obstruction of a woman who looked similar to her but was younger than her. He walked up to Huang Qiong and asked directly. As for the identity of this woman, Huang Qiong knew it. It was none other than Wen Taiyi, the wife whom the old man personally married.
Huang Qiong was slightly stunned when he first saw the woman's beauty. Although he has never met this woman, he knows Wen Taiyi, the official wife. The old man rarely proposes marriages for his ministers. But Wen Taiyi's wife was one of the few. Although her mother's family was only a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, they were from the Hanlin Academy for three consecutive generations. This is still unique in this dynasty.
Although this woman knew nothing about Wen Taiyi's true authority. But judging from these words, this Mrs. Wen is definitely not that kind of ignorant housewife. Looking at Mrs. Wen who had a stubborn look in front of her and repeatedly asked Huang Qiong, the current emperor, to give the reason for confiscating her property and seizing people, Huang Qiong smiled. It's just that Huang Qiong didn't want to pay attention to it, but this woman refused to let him go.
It must be said that Mrs. Wen's performance was much better than that of Wen Taiyi's younger brother who had been trembling with fear after seeing Huang Qiong's appearance, but did not even dare to show off. The entire Wen family wanted to know, but they didn't dare to ask. Seeing this woman boldly grabbing her clothes and legs, she acted like if you don't give me a clear answer, you won't be able to leave.
Not wanting to be violent, Huang Qiong could only signal a steward who was following her to take her to an empty room. It was just this woman who obviously knew some not-so-good rumors about the emperor. Hearing Huang Qiong's request, he became wary and responded directly: "Your Majesty, if you want to say something, say it here. We are all members of the Wen family, what can't we know?"
"The imperial court has not convicted Wen Taiyi yet. I am still the wife of your Majesty's minister, and she is an innocent woman. After all, I and your Majesty are still different from each other. A man and a woman alone in the same room are still incompatible. Behave. Besides, they are all direct members of the Wen family, and they also have the right to know. If Your Majesty has anything to say, it will be the same here."
Although Mrs. Wen's words were not very clear. But the meaning behind the words was expressed very clearly. That is to say, I know your preferences. You probably wanted to insult my innocence by calling me into a room alone. Although Wen Taiyi has been arrested by you, you have not convicted him yet. I am still your minister's wife, so don't even think about the nasty things in your heart.
After hearing what the woman said, Huang Qiong did not get angry. Because he really had no idea about this woman. Although when I first saw this woman, I was indeed a little surprised. But that amazing moment was just for a moment. But after that, I didn't pay much attention to it. He didn't want to say it here because he didn't want to think too much about the Wen family and knew Wen Taiyi's true identity.
He had always been worried about the old man, but he had no intention of eradicating the problem. What's more, the fearful look in the child's eyes just now touched the softest part of his heart. Because of this, he didn't want too many Wen family members to know. Because once Wen Taiyi's true identity is revealed, these people will have to be imprisoned for the rest of their lives even if they are spared.
Because this not only involves the secrets of the court, but also involves Wen Taiyi's confidants in Nanzhen Fusi, who are difficult to completely clean up in a short period of time. There are some things that the fewer people know about, the better. Therefore, facing this woman's insistence on knowing the reason, Huang Qiong only planned to explain it to him alone. Presumably, this woman's head is not simple and she knows what to say and what not to say.
Seeing that this woman refused to talk to him alone, Huang Qiong smiled faintly and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "I want to talk to you alone because I don't want to eradicate the roots, but also want to give you some warmth." Family, leave some room for follow-up. If you really want everyone in the Wen family to be buried with Wen Taiyi in the near future, it's okay for me to say it directly here.
"But people talk too much, so I wanted to keep some secrets afterwards. The Wen family who heard these things, even if I spare them from death, they will never leave this courtyard for the rest of their lives. I will not embarrass Madam, I will go to the front room to wait for Madam . As for whether to come or not, it is up to the lady herself. I will give the lady a stick of incense to think about it. If the lady does not come, I will never give the lady a second chance."
After saying that, Huang Qiong took out the sleeve that was tightly grasped by Mrs. Wen who wanted an answer and turned around to leave. As for why he wanted to meet Mrs. Wen alone, it was because Huang Qiong suddenly wanted to know whether Mrs. Wen knew something about certain things. No matter how much, Huang Qiong really didn't think about it. At least now, Huang Qiong has no thoughts about Mrs. Wen.
He turned around and entered a room in the courtyard next door, sipping tea and thinking about something. As for Mrs. Wen, he didn't care much whether she would come in or not. But to Huang Qiong's expectation, Mrs. Wen finally came. But she was still carrying around that woman who looked somewhat similar to her. Seeing Mrs. Wen bringing someone in, Huang Qiong couldn't help but frown slightly.
However, he didn't care too much. Gao Huaiyuan, who was just drinking tea slowly and seemingly busy with the final interrogation of Wen Taiyi, received ordinary, even rough tea leaves, which seemed like high-end tea leaves. Huang Qiong's unhurriedness made Mrs. Wen, who was originally calm, become anxious. Eager to save her husband, she fell to her knees.
Looking at Mrs. Wen who was kneeling on the ground, Huang Qiong put down the tea cup in her hand, stood up and walked to the door, looking at the beautiful backs of the Liu family's two daughters who were guarding outside the house. After a long time, he said: "You really don't know, what is Wen Taiyi's real position? You have been married to Wen Taiyi for more than ten years. As his wife, do you really care about his daily actions? Don’t you know anything about it?”
Huang Qiong's words stunned Mrs. Wen. Mrs. Wen said with some confusion: "Isn't he just a Hanlin bachelor who relied on the kindness of his ancestors to serve as an official, and has never been sent to the outside world, and has been working hard in the Hanlin Academy? What other officials can he have? At most, these are He was more highly regarded by the Supreme Emperor in 2006. He became the only second-grade Hanlin bachelor in this dynasty."
Hearing the confusion in her words, Huang Qiong did not turn his head, but turned his back to Mrs. Wen and sneered: "It seems that our Commander Wen is still a cautious person. In recent years, he has been My family can always hide it. You family members really don’t know anything about what he does. I just don’t know if he is trying to protect you or because of other things."
