Chapter two hundred and eighty-eight: Manchu uproar

 In Fengtian Hall.

When the four brothers from the Min Palace entered the city, many people saw it. Therefore, the news spread quickly, and many princes present heard about it.

Seeing Shu Liang's miserable state in the main hall, they felt a sense of surprise in their hearts.

At first they did not believe that a clan member dared to whip the dignified owner of the East Factory at the feet of the Emperor.

Now it seems that there are indeed many talented people in the clan!

You know, this was in the palace, already under the emperor's nose, and the eunuch who was sent out to deliver the decree was beaten like this.

Now, even if you have the best self-cultivation, you may not be able to bear it anymore, right?

I secretly looked at the emperor's expression and saw that the air pressure on the throne had indeed become so low that it was difficult to breathe.

Even from a distance, the kings could feel the anger in the emperor's heart.

At the same time, there was a burst of noise outside the hall, as if someone was making a lot of noise.

The next moment, the emperor looked gloomy, waved his hand and said.

"You should step aside first. Someone will come and bring King Guangtong, King Yangzong and others to the palace. I want to see how audacious they are, how dare they be so rampant in the forbidden palace?"

The emperor was furious, and all the kings and courtiers below him were as silent as a cicada, not daring to make a sound.

As soon as the voice fell, the servants went out. Not long after, several Han generals escorted King Guangtong, King Yangzong, King Jiangchuan and King Zhennan into the palace.

As soon as they entered the palace, they felt that the eyes of the kings were focused on them. Moreover, it was not the eyes of curiosity and fun, but the eyes of dissatisfaction and disgust.

King Zhennan is the most astute. Shu Liang's performance outside just now made him realize that something was wrong.

You know, the last time I went back to Shu Liang's house, although the other party was polite, he wasn't that close.

He had a vague feeling that he seemed to be being plotted against him, and that there seemed to be an invisible net locking him up, but until now, he still didn't know where the crisis came from.

He secretly glanced at his father's face in front of the palace, and saw that Old Min King's eyes were sharp and his two gray eyebrows were tightly twisted together. He looked like he was about to eat someone.

The atmosphere in the palace was oppressive and heavy. King Guangtong and others were kneeling on the ground. The emperor looked down from above and said coldly with a cold tone.

"King Guangtong, King Yangzong, King Jiangchuan, and King Zhennan, you four really make my Zhu family proud!"

"The dignified prince, in the imperial palace, in front of the princes of various clans, fought with fists and kicks, held a palace banquet, and even dared to beat the eunuch who was delivering the decree. Have you ever?

Do you want me to take the rules of our ancestors seriously?"

Among the four, King Zhennan knelt slightly forward because of his seniority. Seeing that the situation was not right, he got in front of King Guangtong and others and said.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. What happened today is that I behaved improperly. I am willing to admit my guilt and let Your Majesty punish me. However, I have no intention of despising Your Majesty. It was just that my younger brother was impulsive and accidentally hurt the angel. I am willing to accept the punishment. Please

Your Majesty, please calm down."

His words made the kings present nod secretly, which was in line with the eldest brother's demeanor in their hearts.

However, from King Zhennan's own perspective, he hoped that his words could stop his two younger brothers from talking.

But obviously, this is not possible.

King Guangtong and King Yangzong were two mad dogs. In order to successfully enter the palace, they did not hesitate to cause a palace banquet.

Especially King Guangtong, who even punched and kicked Shu Liang to get into the palace, how could he be silenced by King Zhennan with a few words.

As soon as King Zhennan finished speaking, King Guangtong immediately raised his head. He didn't even call his second brother, but called him by his first name: "Zhu Huixun, don't be so pretentious here!"

As he spoke, King Guangtong knocked his head heavily on the green bricks in the palace, making a "dong-dong" sound. He knocked nine times in a row, and blood stains appeared on his forehead.

Then, he straightened up and said.

"Your Majesty, the beating of Eunuch Shu is my crime. I am willing to plead guilty. However, there is a reason for my actions."

"The reason why I caused such a big banquet in the palace today is because there is a shocking injustice case that needs to be brought before His Majesty."

King Guangtong's actions, combined with the blood stains on his forehead, made his words somewhat more credible.

A low discussion suddenly arose among the clan members and courtiers present.

Facing everyone's surprised and uncertain gazes, King Guangtong took out a memorial from his sleeve, raised it high above his head, and said.

"Your Majesty, I am suing Zhu Huixuan, the king of Zhennan, for three major crimes."

"First, slandering Renmiao, openly slandering the late Emperor Renzong, using disrespectful words, and committing the crime of disloyalty and injustice!"

"Second, he framed his eldest brother and usurped his position as the heir apparent, causing the heir apparent Zhu Huiyan of the Min Palace to be imprisoned in Fengyang and die in depression. This is a crime of disobedience!"

"Third, he deceived his father, forced his concubine to death, took sole control of the Min Palace, bullied the superiors and deceived his subordinates, suppressed his concubine, and was unfilial and unkind!"

"The three major crimes are well-documented and can be verified. These unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, unjust, unkind and hypocritical people are truly the scum of our clan. I beg your Majesty to investigate clearly and punish their crimes, so as to thank the world and police the clan!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally noisy hall suddenly became audible, and after a moment, noisy discussions suddenly began.

The whole court was in an uproar!

Even the civil and military ministers who had been prepared could not hide the look of shock in their eyes.

Unlike the naive kings, the elders never believed that the emperor would give up his religion so easily.

But they didn't expect that this matter would lead to such a huge case.

There were quite a few veterans of the Renxuan era present, and they all had memories of how Crown Prince Min plotted against King Zhennan and was eventually found guilty of false accusations.

This incident caused great shock in the government and the public at the time. Not only was Prince Min imprisoned in the high wall of Fengyang and died in depression, but even King Min himself was reprimanded and had one-third of his hair cut off.

Zong Lu.

Not only that, Emperor Xuanzong also took this as an opportunity to further restrict the freedom of movement of the kings and strengthen Chang Shisi's control over the kings.

From then on, the Chief Secretary could basically intervene in all the affairs of the royal palace, big or small. If the kings had something to report to the court, they had to be verified and submitted by the Chief Secretary.

The elders still had fresh memories of a case that had such a huge impact on the DPRK, but they never imagined that this case would be uncovered again after so many years.

The kings and ministers were talking incessantly, but the old King Min's expression was extremely bad. His gray beard kept shaking, and his whole body was trembling. He pointed at his sons below and kept mumbling.

"The traitor, the traitor!"

I don’t know who the four people below him, the boss, are scolding.

But this is not important. As King Guangtong finished speaking, dense cold sweat had already broken out on King Zhennan's head.

He always thought that King Guangtong and others just wanted to make a fuss about Su's death, but he never thought that they were actually involved in the matter of Prince Min.

Looking at the memorial handed over by King Guangtong, King Zhennan's fat body shivered violently.

He suddenly remembered that since the Su family could give King Min a fake evidence, was what he watched Su burnt the real poems?

As if to verify King Zhennan's guess, as soon as King Guangtong finished speaking, King Yang Zong stepped forward, carefully took out an envelope from his chest, and also raised it high above his head...
