The man in black and Guo Zixu were taken away by the Jin Yiwei and even a group of officers and soldiers under Tang Jianqiu's order.
Tang Jianqiu thought that the matter was not completed, because the man committed the crime of treason, which was not a small crime, and he needed to report the matter to the emperor.
Nowadays, everyone knows that the Holy One is obsessed with carpentry. Who among the civil and military officials in this dynasty does not know the nature of the Holy One?
The great eunuch Wei Zhongxian was the one who arbitrarily determined all affairs in the court. Now even if he reported this matter to the Emperor Ming Xi Zong, he might not listen;
What should we do?
He didn't know if he could endure the pain of cutting Wei Zhongxian into pieces if he saw him again;
He originally wanted to kill him first and then report it later, but after much thought, Tang Jianqiu decided to tell the truth. After all, deceiving the emperor and ignoring the superior was a capital crime, and now he still had to ask the emperor.
Ever since, Tang Jianqiu and others embarked on the journey back to Peking;
A large group of people are sent back to Beijing, and the culprit will be escorted in a prison car.
When the rest of the people saw the Jin Yiwei's attire, they were like a mouse seeing a cat. They were all frightened and evaded, fearing to offend the Jin Yiwei.
Ah Fei could see that Tang Jianqiu was worried, but he didn't point it out. He just kept his doubts in his heart.
A few hours later, a group of people arrived in Dongcheng District successfully. Tang Jianqiu was not idle either. He first ordered people to escort the criminals to Beizhen Fusi. He first made this clear to His Majesty.
The Jinyi Guards did not dare to neglect and did exactly what Tang Jianqiu said.
Seeing the team gradually retreating, Tang Jianqiu felt an indescribable sourness for some reason, probably because he was about to face the enemy from his previous life.
He wished he could kill Wei Zhongxian on the spot to avenge his previous life! However, there are many things that cannot be taken care of by oneself in this deep palace.
Tang Jianqiu took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions to avoid being too impulsive and causing disaster.
After confirming that it was almost done, Tang Jianqiu came to the palace alone;
Now that he has decided to enter the palace to meet the saint, he must act in accordance with the rules and regulations. Even if Tang Jianqiu enters the palace as a governor, he cannot bring weapons.
So, he temporarily handed over the Xiuchundao to others for safekeeping, and then walked into the palace wearing a red robe.
It happened that he met an eunuch holding floating dust on the way there. Upon seeing this, Tang Jianqiu quickly asked the other party about the whereabouts of Ming Xi Zong.
He bowed and said: "Eunuch Chen, may I ask where your Majesty is now?
Eunuch Chen's voice was extremely sharp and somewhat masculine, but he still told Tang Jianqiu the truth: "The emperor especially likes wood carvings. He is in a mood right now, so we would like to advise you not to disturb him."
Tang Jianqiu was silent. Although he had thought about this situation, he felt a little sad when he thought that the current saint was ignorant and incompetent and listened to the slander of the castrated dog, which led to the tragic deaths of many innocent people.
If it were an ordinary person, he might have left long ago, but Tang Jianqiu was a stubborn donkey and insisted on doing this, "Thank you Eunuch Chen for your kindness, but now we have something important to discuss and need to meet with your Majesty."
Eunuch Chen had all the good things to say, but he held back what he wanted to say and swallowed what he said.
Since his good words and persuasion were fruitless, he could only say one thing: "Well, we would like to advise Mr. Tang that the Holy Emperor has been displeased recently, so it is best to act carefully to avoid His Majesty Long Yan's anger."
"Thank you, father-in-law."
The two went in opposite directions. Tang Jianqiu was about to report to Zhu Youxiao's dormitory, but Wei Zhongxian discovered and stopped him.
"Wait a minute, why are you here, sir?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Tang Jianqiu's anger rose to the highest level, and he wanted to eat his flesh and blood.
He was not unfamiliar with such a voice at all, even if it turned into withered bones and turned into ashes, he would still recognize it!
Tang Jianqiu's back was turned to Wei Zhongxian, so he naturally didn't notice the coldness in Tang Jianqiu's eyes.
Tang Jianqiu's aura was so terrifying that it seemed to fill the entire field!
He tried his best to resist the urge to subject the other party to all the tortures in the world, and finally managed to endure it, but he couldn't control the release of the murderous aura emanating from his body.
It was this emotion that made Wei Zhongxian realize that something was wrong.
He didn't think much about it, because in this huge palace, all the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were looking up to him, and no one dared to have an objection to him. And he, Wei Zhongxian, didn't believe that anyone else in the world could handle him!
"Oh? Mr. Tang is in a bad mood recently?"
Wei Zhongxian was a sinister and cunning person. The context of his words seemed to be no different from that of an ordinary eunuch, but for Tang Jianqiu, it was a knife that pierced his heart.
"Nine thousand years old is a joke."
Tang Jianqiu's teeth were about to break when he said these words. This was a great shame for him.
No one can maintain a calm attitude when facing an enemy from the past life.
Seeing that Tang Jianqiu had not turned around for a long time, Wei Zhongxian felt even more strange. In the past, no matter how angry the people in the palace were, they would not even show basic courtesy when they saw him.
Wei Zhongxian was already a little dissatisfied. Normally, he would have punished the offending person, but today he was in a good mood, so he exempted Tang Jianqiu from punishment.
"Although Mr. Tang is the emperor's trusted envoy, given the power of patrolling and arresting, specializing in Zhao Prison, and engaging in investigation and interrogation, you should not lose your etiquette."
Faced with Wei Zhongxian's seemingly understated remarks, Tang Jianqiu felt as disgusted as if he were eating a fly. He finally suppressed this most real emotion.
He knew that in this situation, the overall situation should be the priority, so he turned around honestly and clasped his fists to apologize to the other party.
"Beizhen Fusi has been very busy in recent days, and the thieves took advantage of the loophole and caused injuries, and almost let the criminals get away with it. Therefore, I have neglected Jiu Qian Sui, and I hope Jiu Qian Sui will forgive me."
Facing the enemy from his previous life, Tang Jianqiu really didn't know how to feel.
The hatred for killing his wife, the hatred for humiliating his friends, the resentment for killing himself, the anger for bringing harm to the world, all the things Wei Zhongxian committed cannot be forgiven by Tang Jianqiu!
What's more, this guy is the culprit who destroyed the entire Tang family!
Wei Zhongxian rolled his eyes slightly. He looked at Tang Jianqiu up and down, as if to see some flaws, and then released a mysterious smile that no one could understand.
"I see, Mr. Tang has suffered a lot these days, and our family will say a few words of kindness in front of the emperor."
Tang Jianqiu sneered in his heart, what kind words? If you don't harm him, it will be regarded as a high-end incense.
"I wonder why your Excellency is here?" Realizing that there was something missing, Wei Zhongxian added something.
Tang Jianqiu bowed and said truthfully: "Back when I was nine thousand years old, the case of Wanli Ji has been investigated by Beizhen Fusi and the Ministry of Punishment, and I am preparing to report the matter to His Majesty."
"It turns out that it was because of the Wanliji incident. Our family had heard of it, but we didn't expect that the case had been closed in just a few days.
Mr. Tang, Your Majesty has many things to do. He is busy at the moment. No one is allowed to disturb you. It is not convenient for you to listen to state affairs for the time being. Why not inform our family of the causes and consequences of this case, and we will report it to the Holy One on your behalf. "
On the surface, Wei Zhongxian's words sounded like a good minister who was thinking about the emperor. Who didn't know how ambitious he was?
"this……"
Although Tang Jianqiu was a military attache, he also heard the hidden meaning of Wei Zhongxian's words.
However, during the Tianqi period, Ming Xi Zong did not do his job properly, re-employed Wei Zhongxian, and did not listen to the teachings of the sages to "the ancestors taught Yao and Shun, the constitution was civil and military". Instead, he had a strong interest in carpentry and dealt with axes, saws, and planes all day long;
Since he only knew how to make woodware and build small palaces, he neglected national affairs and became a veritable "Carpenter Emperor".
Since Wei Zhongxian said so, Tang Jianqiu had to follow it. He could only tell Wei Zhongxian the cause, process and result of the whole thing and submit the memorial.
"I'd like Jiu Qiansui to provide you with the relevant documents."
Tang Jianqiu handed over the things in his hands as he spoke.
"Our family understands, Mr. Tang, how should we deal with it? There is no need to disturb the Holy Master with such trivial matters."
Wei Zhongxian made it clear to Tang Jianqiu in one sentence that he could deal with these matters as he pleased.
"Yes...then Tang will resign first."
He didn't want to stay in this smoky place anymore.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Tang, your Majesty is currently upset about something. As ministers, we should relieve your Majesty's worries.
For this plan, we should rely heavily on our ministers to quickly detect the case. But there is only one person in the world, what do you think, Mr. Tang? "
Wei Zhongxian pretended to pause, and then looked at Tang Jianqiu.
Through such eyes, Tang Jianqiu could probably guess eight or nine percent of his intentions, but even so, he still pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "Tang doesn't know Jiu Qian Sui's intentions, but I hope Jiu Qian Sui can clear up his confusion."
He knew what the other party meant, and most likely he wanted to trick him into trouble, but even so, he had to pretend to be confused to prevent Wei Zhongxian from getting into trouble.
Of course, he did it on purpose. Being too smart in front of Wei Zhongxian was undoubtedly digging his own grave. Wei Zhongxian would do anything to eliminate dissidents. Being a fool for this purpose is not entirely a bad thing.
Wei Zhongxian said: "Master Tang, Your Majesty has discussed this matter with our family before. Our family thought that only Master Tang was responsible for this case, so we asked Your Majesty to order Master Tang to go to Xianning, Huguang to handle the case."
"Forgive me for being stupid, but I would like to ask why Your Majesty ordered Tang to go to Xianning? Why did Your Majesty send Tang to go?"
This is what Tang Jianqiu wants to know. If he could know it in more detail, he might be able to get some clues;
"Our family does not dare to speculate on the emperor's intentions. After our family reports to the emperor, an imperial edict will be passed to Beizhen Fusi."
"I understand."
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Tang." Wei Zhongxian said some polite words and looked at Tang Jianqiu as he spoke.
"To share your Majesty's worries, I don't dare to work hard."
Even though Tang Jianqiu was a little unhappy, he could only hold on to prevent Wei Zhongxian from getting caught.
After Tang Jianqiu left, he returned to Beizhen Fusi immediately. The Jin Yiwei who greeted him at the door hurried over to ask questions.
"My lord, what did the emperor say?"
"According to the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, Guo Zixu intends to commit rebellion. Anyone who conspires or commits treason, but who is complicit in the conspiracy, regardless of the leader or subordinate, will be executed at an untimely manner. If they are over sixteen years old, regardless of whether they are seriously ill or infirm, they will all be executed!"
"Sir, do you mean to kill the nine tribes?"
Jin Yiwei instantly understood what was going on, and it could be said that the doctor was done with it.
"Exactly, it's up to you to handle this matter. I still have some things to deal with."
Tang Jianqiu rubbed the bridge of his nose in annoyance. There had never been a time since he joined the Jinyi Guards that he felt so uncomfortable.
As soon as he finished speaking, a eunuch delivering the edict was holding the imperial edict, accompanied by several of the emperor's trusted entourage.
"Tang Jianqiu is here to receive the order!"
Seeing this, Tang Jianqiu and the people around him immediately spread out their long coats and knelt down one by one after seeing the imperial edict.
The eunuch who delivered the order opened the imperial edict, and then announced the content of the edict: "The Emperor is entrusted by heaven to carry the emperor. The edict said, I heard that Murong Jing, the official of Xianning County, wasted the grace of Mu and committed illegal things by relying on the official position of a super-enfessed prince.
With such a great reputation, there can be no falsehood, so we specially sent Tang Jianqiu, the governor of the town, to lead the imperial guards to find out the matter. I express my gratitude for this~"
"I obey your decree! Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"
