Everyone was stunned when they heard Yun Xi's words. It seemed to have nothing to do with the topic they were discussing. However, after thinking about it carefully, they understood that Yun Xi's thinking was a normal thought for an emperor.
Now that the life-cutting case and the witchcraft case are over, Yunxi has also ordered a search and arrested all the people related to the case, so there is no need to rush the deal. It can be done in any way, it all depends on Yunxi's mood; now
The most important thing is that people from the Timur Khanate planned these two major cases.
How to resolve this case to the outside world? Is it to just claim that someone in the country intends to murder His Majesty, or to reveal the truth that the Timur Khanate is the mastermind behind it? Or to frame it on other foreign countries, such as Annan?
In addition, His Majesty was murdered like this by the Timur Khan. He must have hated that country so much that he must have wanted to take revenge. However, it was difficult to decide how to take revenge.
However, after everyone heard Yunxi's words just now, they almost guessed what Yunxi was thinking: to fight the Timur Khanate and impose punishment.
"Your Majesty, the Timur Khanate has been deceiving the emperor this time and is full of evil. Your Majesty does not dare to comment on how to deal with the ministers. But according to the knowledge of the Northwest Fan Kingdom who has been to the capital, Timur's country is also very vast.
Even if it is not as good as the Ming Dynasty, it is not far behind. Your Majesty may not be able to win if he mobilizes hundreds of thousands of troops to go on an expedition; but if more soldiers are sent to go on an expedition, I am afraid the court will not be able to bear it."
"I think that Your Majesty still concealed this matter and did it for the Timur Khanate behind the scenes, and secretly punished the Timur Khanate. He could plan such a thing in the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty could also punish the Timur Khanate in the Ming Dynasty.
Timur did the same thing." Chen Ji said.
It should be said that Chen Ji's words were not out of selfishness, but indeed for Yunxi. The Timur Khanate was also very powerful, and the Ming Dynasty might not be able to win with all its troops. Even if it did win, it would be just a false name, which would be detrimental to the country.
There is no benefit; it will be even worse if you lose.
What's more, he also said, "The Ming Dynasty did the same thing in the Timur Khanate," which is tantamount to supporting Yunxi's use of witchcraft on Timur, which is very rare for civil servants.
'Two years ago, it was indeed worthwhile for me to ask Wen Kui to visit the thatched cottage and invite him to come out. He is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and to me, and he is worthy of the courtesy I gave him.' Yunxi thought.
Chen Ji was a Hangzhou native who was promoted by Yunxi in order to appease the local people when he was touring Jiangsu and Zhejiang two years ago. At that time, Yunxi asked Zhu Wenkui, the Crown Prince of Wu, to personally invite him to come out of the mountain. He was treated with great courtesy, which made Hu Guang and others angry.
Jealous.
After Chen Ji spoke, other people also spoke one after another, basically supporting his point of view; some people suggested that it be framed on Annan or Majapayi. Well, if it is framed on Majapayi, it is not framed. In short, everyone
They all believe that it should not be publicly said that the Timur Khanate did it, and that if you want to take revenge, it is best to retaliate secretly; if you must go to war with the Timur Khanate in the future, do not use such an excuse.
"You don't have to say anything, I have my own thoughts." As Yunxi spoke, he wrote the three words 'Timur' on the paper on the table with a brush. He wrote very hard and the handwriting was large, just
Three words take up the entire page.
As soon as everyone heard this, they understood that Yunxi did not agree with their words. Just as they were about to continue their admonishment, they heard Yunxi say: "No matter what, I will not take any action until the war with Annan is over, and I will not do anything."
When disclosing information about this case, we only tell the public that the important criminals in the case have not yet confessed, and we will wait until all the criminals confess and sort out the case before making it public."
"You are also not allowed to reveal the truth of these two major cases to anyone, and I will not forgive you lightly if you violate the rules."
When everyone heard this, they thought Yun He was still hesitating, so they stopped admonishing him for the time being, planning to wait a few days before continuing his persuasion.
Yunxi immediately announced the treatment of the people involved in the case: "All the criminals in the case of harvesting and mutilating, and those who performed the harvesting and mutilation were all executed in languid chi. The family members dealt with them in accordance with the "Laws of the Ming Dynasty"; if the beggar was caught, he would also be languished."
He will be executed, his sons, wives and concubines will all be beheaded, and the rest of his relatives and his subordinates, the homeless bullies, will be exiled to the border."
"Yesterday, I ordered all of the Gao family to be sent to the capital for serving as officials. For the sake of serving the Ming Dynasty, I exempted them from the death penalty except Gao Shunchen and exiled them to the border. Gao Shunchen and his descendants, wives and concubines were sent to the front of the army.
Gao Jingde was executed late, his descendants other than Gao Shunchen who were over 16 years old were beheaded, and those under 16 years old were exiled; the rest of the Gao family were treated in the same way."
"Those who ransacked their homes in Yaxing were beheaded, and the rest were exiled to the border; all other Ming and foreign people involved in the case were executed."
"Su Dongli and Wu De were also executed prematurely."
"Anyone bribed by them in the outer courtyard of the palace will be executed, and their wives and children will be exiled."
"There is another foreign businessman who was naturalized in Ming Dynasty at the same time as Su Dongli. His name is Basong. According to Su Dongli's confession, he has nothing to do with this case, but I still have to order him to be arrested and interrogated carefully. If he is indeed not involved,
This case was not sent to the Ming Dynasty by any foreign country, so he was released and went back to continue doing business; if he is related to this case, he will be dealt with in the same way as Su Dongli."
"However, I do not plan to settle the case immediately. All the prisoners are still detained at the Guangzhou Police Headquarters and will be dealt with after the case is concluded."
"Your Majesty is wise." Yunxi's treatment was nothing special and very appropriate, so everyone praised him.
Yunxi was not interested in their flattery, and discussed a few things with them to get them to retreat.
Yang Ren did not retreat with the others, but knelt down to Yunxi again and said: "Your Majesty, there are servants in the outer courtyard of the palace who were bribed by these criminals and became their accomplices. I sincerely ask your Majesty to forgive me." Guangzhou is
Yang Ren's position as an official was still as the chief envoy. If something happened here, Yang Ren would of course have to apologize.
"I can't blame you for this. There are countless aristocratic families in Guangzhou city, and you can't guard against them." Of course Yunxi would not blame him, but instead comforted him and asked him to retreat.
Later, Yunxi summoned Fan Ming, the local leader of the Jinyi Guards, and said to him: "Fan Aiqing, send people to spread rumors among the people. Don't let the people guess."
This kind of gossip spreads the fastest. Not long after the case of harvesting and harvesting, everyone knew that the harvesting and harvesting case had occurred. After Yunxi recruited monks and Taoists in Guangzhou to cure Xiyi's evil, everyone knew that someone was there.
Important people in the palace were bewitched. Many people asked people about the progress of the case whenever they had time. Yunxi felt that instead of letting the people listen to false news, it would be better for him to let the Jin Yiwei concoct some news that was beneficial to the country and let the people listen.
to maintain stability.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Fan Ming was very smart and immediately understood what he meant and agreed.
Yunxi then summoned different people and gave them different instructions, and asked them to leave one after another.
By the time all the instructions were given, it was already noon, and he was a little hungry. Yunxi stood up and stretched before going back to the backyard to have a meal with Li Shaer and others.
However, before leaving, Yunxi tidied up his messy desk and saw the fine rice paper on which he had just written the three Chinese characters "Timur" in his own handwriting.
"Timur, although you don't know about this, you have set up an intelligence network in the Ming Dynasty, which shows that your ambition for the Ming Dynasty is clearly exposed." Yunxi said to himself.
"But I will definitely make your plan fail..."
After saying these idle words, Yunxi turned and left the outer study and went to the backyard to have a meal.
