Chapter 134: Heavy Punishment

There was nothing to do for five days, so that the people of the Yushitai seemed to see an opportunity, and several folds were handed to the emperor's bedroom one after another.

In the past few days, the emperor has avoided the early dynasty on the grounds of physical discomfort, and all the twists and turns have been sent to the political hall as usual, and after being discussed and decided by the three provinces, they will be directly disposed of and no longer handed over to the emperor for inspection.

But this time, the imperial historians directly crossed the political hall and sent the folds to the emperor through the inner chamberlain.

The emperor was upset and tossed and turned on the bed, and when he saw a few more things beside the bed, he picked them up and looked at them.

At this look, his face became darker and darker.

Qin Ji, who he trusted the most, actually shrunk at home every day, doing nothing, no wonder no news has been transmitted back about the chaos of the party.

One of them even speculated that Qin Ji had collusion with the chaotic party, and he and Yu Yanshen must have an unknown past, so he didn't dare to investigate further.

"Bastard!" he scolded, throwing out a few folds and smashing them right in the face of the palace maid who had entered the room with the potion.

The palace maid screamed "wow", her hand shook three times, the lacquer plate tilted, and the porcelain bowl with the golden dragon pattern fell to the ground and smashed it, and the decoction stained a large piece of the delicate woven carpet.

She was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground, and she didn't dare to gasp or beg for mercy, for fear that the more she begged, the more angry the emperor became.

The queen glanced at her reproachfully, raised her hand and signaled her to quickly pack her things and go out before the emperor reacted.

Although the Ninety-Five Emperor has the power to control life and death in the world, she does not want the emperor to kill more.

The palace maid hurriedly cleaned up the broken porcelain pieces, cut her fingers, and gritted her teeth and didn't dare to squeak. Quietly quit.

It took a long time for the emperor to come back to his senses, and shouted: "Call Qin Sheren to come over!" Tell him to come to the palace now, and I will listen to him tell him what is going on. ”

The queen sent a new cup of tea, "Your Majesty." ”

The emperor didn't answer, glared at the queen and asked, "What's wrong with Qin Aiqing?" He obviously told me that he would find out the truth as soon as possible, but after five days, he actually didn't do anything? What was he thinking?"

The queen gently persuaded: "Xu is the Qin She people who cast a big net to catch big fish?

When the emperor heard this, he was stunned for a while. "Really?"

The queen was not sure of this sentence. Although I believe in Qin Ji, the emperor is angry, and he is not sure what he will do, and what messy thoughts he will have.

"We'll find out when he comes. The emperor said quietly: "I hope he will not disappoint." ”

The queen lowered her eyes. Sitting silently aside.

Not much. Qin Ji is here. He was dressed in a neat official robe. His face was ruddy, and he was very energetic, and he strode in with his hands behind his back. Arching his hand to the person on the bed, "Minister Qin Ji knocks on the emperor." ”

The emperor was overjoyed, beckoned him to come close and speak, "How are you investigating the chaos of the party?"

As soon as the words fell, a palace maid outside whispered: "Your Majesty, the queen, Concubine Zhao Shu asks to see you." ”

The emperor frowned quickly, he just called Zhao Zhong a few days ago to suffer a big crime, and Concubine Zhao Shu never dared to come, why did she ask for it now? He waved his hand, "No, send her away." ”

The palace maid didn't move, but she had the courage to lower her voice and said, "Concubine Shu spent twelve hours boiling a bowl of tonic soup and wanted to dedicate it to the emperor. ”

Qin Ji lowered his eyes and saw the twists and turns scattered all over the place. A disdainful smile.

Baba's look at how he will be reprimanded by the emperor, right?

"Your Majesty, please don't let down the hard work of the lady concubine. He advised: "It is not easy for a weak woman to last twelve hours. ”

The emperor looked at Qin Ji and saw a deep meaning flashing in his eyes, and nodded sloppily, "Okay, just call him in." ”

"Your Majesty. Qin Ji turned his eyes to look at the door, "You should look disappointed and angry." ”

"What?" After listening to the queen's words, the emperor saw Qin Ji looking determined to win, and knew that the matter must not be what the dog officials from the Yushitai said, so why should he be disappointed and angry?

"Didn't the emperor think that the minister didn't make any moves?"

The emperor suddenly realized, it seems that Qin Aiqing has set up a bureau to let the relevant people be planted in the pit.

"Okay, listen to what Qin Aiqing said. ”

Qin Ji dusted off his robe, and knelt down calmly in the sound of approaching footsteps.

As soon as Concubine Zhao Shu came in, she saw that the emperor had a gloomy complexion, and Qin Sheren knelt in front of the bed, without saying a word, and her face was as cold as frost in the cold winter wax moon.

Great, the monarch and the ministers quarreled. She suppressed the smile on the corner of her lips, moved the lotus step lightly, and pounced on the emperor delicately, "Your Majesty, you see, this is the concubine's body rummaging through ancient books and medical skills, and consulting the imperial doctor, specially prepared tonic soup." Your Holy Communion has not been refreshing these days, and the concubine is really anxious, I heard that as long as you drink this bowl of tonic soup, you will be able to get better. ”

The emperor held her hand and rubbed it lightly and heavily, "Concubine Ai has worked hard." ”

Concubine Zhao shook her head virtuously, "Doing this for the emperor, the concubine doesn't feel hard at all, but ...... My heart is full of sweetness, and I am happy to do everything for my beloved. ”

The emperor drank the tonic soup in one gulp, and casually threw the bowl on the small table, "Okay, you go down." ”

Concubine Zhao Shu blinked, revealing reluctance, "Your Majesty, please let the concubine accompany you for a while, right?"

The emperor was a little impatient, "I have something important." ”

Concubine Zhao glanced at the queen, "But the queen doesn't ...... either"

"Presumptuous!" the emperor shouted: "The queen is the mother of a country, how can you compare?"

Concubine Zhao Shufei's face suddenly turned red and white, and she went out after hurriedly saluting, but she didn't go far, she just stood outside and listened secretly. The palace people lowered their heads and remained motionless, not daring to stop her at all.

Soon, the emperor's angry voice sounded, "Tell me, what have you been doing these days? Why don't you have a clue about the chaos of the party until now? Qin Ji, you have wasted my trust in you!"

Qin Ji said: "The chaotic party is cunning, it's really hard to check ......"

"Phew!" the emperor spat out, "I think you are deliberately delaying, is it so that the chaotic party has run away from the capital." Plotting to assemble again and enter the Imperial City?"

Qin Ji hurriedly said: "The minister has no such intention, please ask the emperor to learn clearly." ”

"Absolutely not?" the emperor sneered, "Everyone else says this about you, not just me!" Look at what is written on the fold, if you fail to give me a satisfactory explanation today, you want to walk out of the palace with all your tails!"

When Zhao Shufei heard this, her face was overjoyed.

It seems that the collective impeachment of the people who gathered the Imperial Historical Observatory finally shook the emperor's mind.

However, it was originally Qin Ji who was looking for death by himself, and there was no movement for five days. Even if he quibbles and leaves. I'm afraid that the emperor doesn't believe him. After all, Madame Qin is satisfied with the emperor and empress with her own eyes, and how many people's attention has been attracted by the large-scale marriage?

She covered her mouth and smiled, it seems that her brother and they arranged this "chaotic party" drama. There will be a big catch.

Qin Ji's calm voice came from inside. She continued to listen. I felt disgusted in my heart.

At this point, the surname Qin still pretended to be calm.

Hehe, let's see how long he can fit.

"Minister...... Men and horses have been assigned to investigate. However, as the minister said before, the group of rebels was very cunning, and they searched inside and outside the capital, but they found no trace of them or anyone associated with them, and if they wanted to investigate more closely or expand the scope of the search, it could not be done in just five days. Your Majesty, I think you have seen a lot of impeachment proceedings under various names handed over by the Imperial Historical Observatory, when did they say the truth and good things? Aren't most of them making up a few sentences to exclude dissidents for some people? Your Majesty, please think clearly!"

"Bang", it was the sound of porcelain shattering.

Concubine Zhao narrowed her eyes, beaming in her heart.

It seems that the emperor does not believe Qin Ji's statement.

"Is five days less? Where is it less, a full sixty hours, you can mobilize so many soldiers and horses under your hands, and you can search the inside and outside of the capital hundreds of times, but you haven't even found the shadow of a chaotic party? You keep saying that you are loyal to me, is this a manifestation of your loyalty? You are putting me in an even more dangerous situation! Qin Ji, what do you want to do?!"

Qin Ji finally stopped talking.

The emperor gasped, his voice trembling, "I really misbelieved you, Qin Ji!"

The queen persuaded: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

With a slap, the queen let out a low cry of pain.

Concubine Zhao Shu's spirit was shocked, the emperor beat the queen?

No matter what means she used, she could not shake the status of the queen, a lowly woman, and she was jealous for many years.

The "chaotic party" is so wonderful!

The emperor shouted loudly: "Come on, pull Qin Ji out, and beat the fifty boards! Qin Ji, let me tell you, in five days, if you can still find out the details of the chaotic party and arrest the remnants of the party and the people associated with it, it will not be as simple as the fifty boards! I will take your life!"

Five days? Even if another fifty days were given, it would be impossible for Qin Ji to find out why.

Concubine Zhao Shu smiled, waved her hand, and walked out of the palace with her personal palace maid quickly, and hurriedly hid in the side hall next to her.

The fact that the Qin Sheren were hit by the board was rare at that time, how could they miss it?

It's a pity that inside and outside the palace at this time, there are only palace maids and guards and imperial doctors, and there are no officials on the side, otherwise it would be wonderful to make Qin Ji make a fool of himself in public.

She sighed and looked out through the window, only to see Qin Ji being dragged out of the dormitory by two guards, and another attendant placed a stool in the middle of the clearing.

Qin Ji was pressed to death on the bench, and the guard raised the stick in his hand and fell mercilessly.

At first, she thought that the guards were Qin Ji's lackeys and would secretly show mercy to her subordinates.

The emperor's order came from the house: "If you dare to do anything and don't beat him well, I will kill you first!"

The stick landed on his body with a dull thud.

Qin Ji didn't scream, because he was biting his lip and his face was very ugly.

"Is it really a fight?!" Zhao Shufei cheered and continued to watch the show.

As the sticks continued to fall, the blood stains gradually blurred on the crimson official robe, and finally a cry of pain overflowed from her mouth, and she was even more happy in her heart, eager to call everyone to see how Qin Sheren was reprimanded by the emperor, and how they were beaten and humiliated.

Qin Ji lay on the bench and let out a cry of pain from time to time, looking extremely painful, but his eyes were calm.

As early as when he was in the East Palace, he and the emperor played such a trick.

At that time, the first emperor was strict, and if he was slightly dissatisfied, he would inevitably be punished.

As a companion, he will naturally be punished.

Patience can be endured, but it hurts in the end, and it is very inconvenient. So he and the emperor found the guards, studied together and after many experiments, finally found an excellent solution.

The guards were still as usual, and they could make people tremble with sticks, but when they really fell on them, the force was as light as a leaf.

They only need to cooperate and make a miserable cry, if the number of punishments imposed by the emperor is large, they stuff a small blood bag on their bodies in advance, hit them a certain number of times, use a little force, break the blood bag, red water seeps out of their clothes, and it is exactly the same as being injured.

In the eyes of outsiders, they were indeed beaten.

Later, the emperor ascended the throne, and this method has not been used for a long time.

However, they are still the original guards, and they are also well-thought, although after a few years, the technique is a little rusty, but the force on the body is still not heavy.

If you want to go down with fifty sticks, it's only slightly swollen.

He glanced at the side hall with the window slightly open, and seemed to get a glimmer of light in his eyes from the darkness, and sneered.

The news of this matter would soon spread out of the palace and into the imperial city, and every official would know that he had been heavily punished by the emperor.

Zhao Zhong and others, who have been oppressed for a long time, feel angry, right?

Then at that time, the good show will be staged.

After beating fifty sticks, the guards went in to report.

The emperor shouted: "Let him go, I don't want to see him now." ”

Qin Ji was carefully helped up by the two guards and limped towards the Imperial Doctor's Office.

Concubine Zhao looked at his embarrassed back and left, afraid of being heard by others and suppressed the urge to laugh wantonly, "Let's go, it's time for us to spread the news!"

Qin Ji sat in the Imperial Doctor's Office for a while, changed into clean clothes, and sprinkled some water droplets on his forehead, thinking that Concubine Zhao Shufei should have almost spread the news, so he asked the guards to continue to carry himself out. The imperial doctors looked at him coming and leaving with a blank face, but they knew that it must be some arrangement from the Qin Sheren, so they shouldn't make a fuss.

Then, in full view of everyone, he staggered out of the imperial city and into his carriage.

Thinking of the fingers and fingers of everyone along the way, as well as the undisguised schadenfreude of Zhao Zhong, Li Wangshan and others, he picked up a cup of warm tea, took a sip, and said to the other person in the car: "It's time to close the net." He let out a long sigh and looked at the still deserted street, hoping that the matter would be over as soon as possible.

In this way, he can meet the people he wants to see the most. (To be continued.) )
