Zhu Di took the confession in his hand, read it carefully, and laughed. [Ji Gang bent down quickly, pricked up his ears, as if a cat was always about to pounce on a mouse, waiting to hear what Zhu Di said.
With the word "catch", he immediately went to get the person, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement. Ji Gang quietly raised his head and glanced, and saw Zhu Di holding the confession, slightly lost in thought.
Ji Gang said in surprise: "Your Majesty?"
"oh!"
Zhu Di came to his senses, flicked the paper with the confession written on it, and asked: "This Yang Xu, I gave him all his fame and fortune. Now he has become a highly respected minister, and his rank and rank are hereditary. Even if he doesn't
How will forming a faction with the prince hinder his prosperity and wealth? Will he take part in the rebellion in the East Palace to my detriment?"
Ji Gang said cautiously: "This..., I dare not say for sure. But as the ancients said: The human heart is not enough, a snake swallows an elephant. Your Majesty, how does the Hou Junji in Lingyan Pavilion compare to Yang Xu? Isn't he just as stupid?"
, take part in the rebellion of Prince Li Chengqian!"
Zhu Di's body shook slightly and he said slowly: "Yang Xu has made great contributions to the country, so he cannot be convicted based on Xie Jin's words. However, Xie Jin was once the chief minister of the cabinet, just like the prime minister of the country, and he has
The confession is here, and it would be inappropriate for me not to check or ask questions, and I would be very embarrassed."
"Well……"
Ji Gang couldn't understand the emperor's intentions, so he didn't dare to make trouble, so he had no choice but to resist.
Zhu Di pointed to the confession again and said: "I heard that Hu Guang forced his daughter to regret the marriage a few days ago in order to draw a clear line with Jie Jin. The Hu family's daughter was so fierce that she cut off one of her ears to express her ambition in order to resist her father's orders?"
Ji Gang thought to himself: "Who told the emperor this? It was done by those yinky men in Dingshidongchang."
Ji Gang thought in his mind and said hurriedly: "Yes, I have also heard about this matter. Because it is just a woman's family matter, I thought it did not involve the national economy and people's livelihood, so I did not disturb the Holy Emperor's mind with such topics in the market."
Zhu Di said: "Well! It can't be said that it is useless. At least based on this, we can conclude that Hu Guang and Xie Jin are not co-conspirators. Otherwise, what is the use of him rushing to regret the marriage? As long as he finds out that Jie Jin colludes with him to plot evil, it is not the same thing.
If he is held accountable, will he be punished by national law?
If he was really an accomplice of Jie Jin, even if he did not try his best to rescue Jie Jin, he would not regret the marriage at this time. Once such behavior was introduced to Jie Jin's ear, wouldn't he be angry with Jie Jin and force Jie Jin to recruit himself? It doesn't make sense.
, this must be because Jie Jin heard that Hu Guang regretted his marriage, and he was so angry that he deliberately bit him."
Ji Gang said quickly: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is wise!"
Ji Gang brought Hu Guang out for kidnapping purposes, otherwise the purpose of bringing up Yang Xuxun alone would have been too obvious. In fact, since it was Xie Jin who confessed and had nothing to do with him, how could the emperor suspect that he had ulterior motives? But Ji Gang had a guilty conscience.
, it is inevitable that there is no such concern.
Now that the emperor has vetoed Hu Guang's accusation, only Yang Xu is left. Looking at the emperor's behavior, it seems that he does not believe that Xia Xun would collude with the prince to harm the emperor. Ji Gang thought, rolled his eyes slightly, and sighed
He took a breath and said: "Actually, the person I least want to be recruited by Jie Jin is Duke Fuguo!"
Zhu Di seemed to be very interested in this topic. He said "Oh" softly and turned to look at him. Ji Gang sighed heavily and said sadly: "Speaking of which, Duke Fu is my old boss. When the emperor started the army,
When I was in Jinling during the Jingnan period, I fought side by side with Duke Fu and served the emperor. I felt a sense of honor, so when I got Xie Jin's confession, I was really surprised, and at the same time, I was extremely sad!"
As he said this, he lowered his head sadly.
Zhu Di's eyes flashed with an unclear meaning. When Ji Gang slowly raised his head, Zhu Di's face was calm. Ji Gang stared at Zhu Di and said in a deep voice: "Although I am heartbroken, I dare not hide my love.
I will not retaliate. I still remember that on the day when Emperor Yuji ascended the throne, after announcing the three major edicts, he gave some heartfelt admonitions to the Manchu military."
Zhu Di's eyes wandered for a moment, as if his thoughts were drifting to a far away place. In the more than ten years since he took the throne, too many things have happened. The past events of more than ten years ago seemed like many years had passed in his mind.
.
Ji Gang said with emotion: "The emperor said: 'In the past, monarchs who created the world with martial arts must rely on the support of their generals. But later on, it was often difficult to protect their generals. People often say that this is the death of the emperor's cunning rabbit, and the slaughter of the powerful and meritorious officials.
Is this really the case?"
"The emperor said, has anyone ever checked whether those generals who could not be saved were arrogant and perverted the law, or whether they were arrogant because of favors? The monarch responds to heaven. He is not just the monarch of the heroes, but the monarch of the entire world. There must be no bias.
.So when heroes break the law, they must be severely punished according to the law. Even if they are close relatives and trustworthy, they will not be forgiven!"
Ji Gang became more and more emotional as he spoke, with tears in his eyes: "The emperor said that he hopes that all the heroes will live long and prosperous, and rest with the country. But if there are people who are stubborn and do evil, don't blame the emperor for being ungrateful and unkind!"
After so many years, I have always kept these words in my heart!"
Zhu Di's eyes were shining brightly, and he said excitedly: "Okay! Okay, it's hard for you to remember. In the past, when we were in trouble, we were on the battlefield, and we didn't know whether we would die in the morning or evening, you could all stand by my side and never leave. You can share the same adversity.
, and we should share wealth and honor. When I didn’t want to share the glory, you violated the national law one by one and abandoned me!"
Ji Gang cried and said: "I understand the emperor's painstaking efforts. I know that the emperor feels bad when he sees the heroes who contributed to the Jingnan being imprisoned illegally. The emperor wishes he had wronged them, so why would I be willing to send his own master to prison?"
I believe that Xie Jin's report to Duke Fu is of great importance, and the court should neither indulge in it nor indulge in it. I am an old member of Duke Fu, and in order to avoid suspicion, it is not appropriate to investigate and handle Duke Fu's case. However, this matter cannot be left idle.
So...can Dongchang temporarily control the freedom of the public, find out the truth, and then restore the public’s innocence?”
"Um……"
Zhu Di stood up and walked slowly in front of His Highness. Ji Gang waited with his head lowered, feeling uneasy. Seeing that the emperor refused to take Yang Xu, he had to be moved first and then take the "Order to Command Loyal Ministers" that the emperor himself had said.
They came to squeeze him, and in the end they took retreat as an advance and carried him out of the East Factory. I wonder if the emperor can make up his mind to take him with this attitude.
After a while, Zhu Di slowly stood up and said: "When Dongchang was established, its powers were clearly defined. Dongchang only has the power of investigation and arrest, but not the power of prison. So, for the sake of fairness, Yang Xu will
He will be put under the control of your Jin Yiwei and temporarily imprisoned in prison. His case will be handled by Dongchang!"
Ji Gang quickly fell to the ground and kowtowed: "I obey the holy command!"
As soon as he left the Jinshen Palace, the tears on Ji Gang's cheeks were still wet, and a ferocious smile appeared in his eyes: "I have done you such a big favor as the King of Han, and now it's your turn to reciprocate. Yang Xu, I just
I'm responsible for keeping this person alive for you, and it's up to you whether you can kill him or not!"
※
Yang Mansion is very peaceful these days.
Xia Xun had nothing to do, just sitting at home.
But at his age, he is not yet old enough to live in his old age. He has a wife and a beautiful concubine by his side all the time, but Xia Xun no longer knows how to take care of his wife.
At this moment, it was inconvenient for him to travel around. If it weren't for the birth of two little babies at home, which added a lot of joy to his life, Mr. Xia would really have been able to hold back his illness at home.
In fact, Xia Xun didn't have nothing to do in the house. Now every day at 3:30 p.m., Xia Xun would sit down in the study room to study on time, and would not come out until the afternoon. The servants of the Yang family almost thought that their master was going to give up.
Study martial arts, study hard, and come back as a top scholar next year.
During the time when Mr. Xia was studying, no servants were allowed in. Even Xia Xun's wives and concubines consciously did not disturb him. In the entire Yang family, only Ming'er knew something about it, and one day there was something
He, the head of the family, needed to decide on his own affairs. The steward was waiting in the front yard, so Ming'er went to the small study. When she knocked on the door and explained her identity, Xia Xun asked her to come in.
Ming'er took a quick look at that time and saw that her husband had made a lot of large drawing papers in the room, and used a ruler to draw a lot of diagrams, filled with the names, place of origin, and official experience of some officials.
, relations with other officials, and his main political opinions.
Ming'er asked at that time, and Xia Xun told her that it was called a statistical chart. By comparing the similarities and differences between these officials, we can find out where the problem lies.
He also told Ming'er that the purpose of his doing this was not to continue to intervene in the dispute between the crown prince, but to be aware of it and avoid possible disasters. Ming'er stopped asking. She believed in her husband and his love for her.
Commitment, except when it comes to women...
After lunch, Xia Xun took a walk in the back garden for a while, took a walk to eat, and then practiced boxing in the primary school martial arts field. Xu Jiang, dressed as a food delivery vendor, would deliver food to the house every afternoon, and then collect the food he collected the previous day.
News from all aspects of the capital was sent to Xia Xun.
As soon as Xu Jiang arrived, Xia Xun stopped his posture, walked to the edge of the school martial arts field, picked up a towel from the weapon rack, wiped the sweat on his face and neck, and said to Xu Jiang: "Combining these few...
I will analyze the information collected by Tian, and I am afraid that I will go to jail!"
Xu Jiang was shocked and lost his voice: "What? How could..."
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Why are you panicking? It's not the first time I've been to the imperial prison. There are so many people coming in and out of this kind of place, it's no different from visiting the prison."
Xu Jiang laughed dryly: "The Duke is joking. Now that the Duke is staying behind closed doors, there is no reason for the disputes in this court to involve the Duke. The Duke must be worrying too much."
Xia Xun sighed and said: "Originally, it is true that it will not involve me anymore, but... with Ji Gang's personality, he will not make a big deal if Xie Jin falls into his hands."
Xu Jiang said: "Even if Ji Gang wants to make a move and overthrow the Duke, he still doesn't have enough weight, right?"
Xia Xun said: "Originally, yes, but now it's different. As soon as the emperor returned to Beijing, he dug a pit, but the fox was too cautious and refused to jump in. What should the emperor do? He can only throw some bait into the pit.
Let it think the bait is delicious, and there are no traps in the pit. But there are only enough baits for two people, and one portion is for the prince..."
Xia Xun pointed to his nose and said innocently: "The other one is me! If you throw the prince into it, what if the lie turns out to be true? If you don't throw me away, who will you throw away?"
