Chapter 217: Zhu Jiu Clan
Yan Xiaoyue has been staying in the mansion for the past two days, and she hasn't inquired about things outside, but now she heard Jiang Siyan take the initiative to talk about King Ning, so she asked, "Xianggong, the Jin Palace's house has been raided, is that what King Ning meant?" ”
"No, it's the emperor's will, abolish the king of Jin as a commoner, copy the family, and the Li Mansion is also a copy of the family, and punish the nine clans."
Yan Xiaoyue's eyes widened, "Zhu Jiu Clan? ”
"Yes, at the end of the courtier's intercession, it was agreed that the young woman would be an official prostitute."
"Then you might as well cut off your head." Suddenly, he asked again: "Isn't the emperor poisoned?" ”
"There is an imperial doctor, some time ago, the King of Jin suddenly made a difficulty, poisoned the emperor and queen, Yi Guifei took advantage of the chaos to take charge of the harem, and the King of Jin sent the Imperial Forest Army to various places to strictly control it, how can anyone heal the emperor? Although he has been rescued now, his body has been corrupted, and he is afraid that he will not be able to survive this year. ”
Yan Xiaoyue was a little curious, "Ah, it's so dangerous, how did King Ning take the Qianming Palace?" ”
Jiang Siyan's eyes flashed, "It is estimated that King Ning had already made arrangements before leaving, otherwise how could he control the situation so quickly?" ”
"If Your Majesty can't survive this year, there will be two happy events to be done in the house."
"Grandfather and father-in-law both mean this, otherwise as soon as Your Majesty leaves, the officials in the imperial city will have to stop marrying for twenty-seven months, and the time will drag on for a long time."
Yan Xiaoyue also nodded, it seems that this year not only is she going to marry Si Yao, but she is also going to welcome Xiaoxiao into the house.
"It's not very peaceful in the imperial city lately, so you'd better not go out."
Yan Xiaoyue responded, even if Jiang Siyan didn't say anything, she wouldn't go out, and now King Ning is already on the cusp. It wouldn't be nice if she went out and made people think of something.
The imperial city that came after it entered a state of high pressure, and the emperor couldn't even wait for the autumn beheading, and after copying the Li Mansion, he directly asked the criminal department to count the people and ask for the beheading in three days. And everyone in the Jin Palace, the princess has a white silk, and the remaining side concubines and wives are temporarily detained in the Jin Palace, just waiting for the Jin King's crime to be assigned to a bitter cold place. Oh. Now he can't be called the king of Jin, but the common people pray for Anbang, and now he is locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department.
The day of the beheading. At noon, the wind was strong, and it was dark and heavy, and the men and women of the nine clans of the Li family thought about it. Yan Xiaoyue trembled, there were hundreds of people. It is really hateful to waste so many lives for the sake of selfish desires. But the culprit is still outside the law, and hundreds of innocent people have lost their lives. This is the imperial power.
On this day, there were very few people who went to the lunch market to watch, after all, there were not one or two, but they knelt on the ground neatly. According to the number of the Criminal Department, there are 961 people, the youngest of whom is still in infancy. Several executioners took turns to roll dozens of ghost-headed knives, until their hands were weak.
On this day, the venue before the afternoon market was soaked with blood, and the smell of blood wafted out for several miles, and the officials who cleaned the venue dispatched a hundred people, and they could not wash the blood water for a noon, until a heavy rain fell at night to make the traces of this punishment disappear, and the next day it restored the tranquility of the past, but when others passed by, they would consciously lower their voices reads();.
This was the first large-scale execution since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it also served as a warning to those with bad intentions, and even the crimes in the imperial city were much less in the past few years.
Later things seemed to be extremely smooth, the emperor ordered King Ning to be the prince to supervise state affairs, and King Ning also moved into the East Palace, one step closer to the Qianming Palace.
As soon as May arrived, the day when Jiang Siyao married into the Tang Mansion was approaching, and when adding makeup, Yan Xiaoyue still gave a set of rubies on the head, but the jewelry was inlaid with rubies that were significantly larger than the one given to Jiang Siwen.
Jiang Sixue and Jiang Siji have no opinion on this, and even take it for granted, but Jiang Siwen, who was watching from the sidelines, felt uncomfortable, although she was a concubine in the house, she was also the eldest daughter, she had always been valued by the old lady, and she received the most rewards on weekdays, and she often forgot that she was a concubine, but she didn't expect to be separated from her sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law is getting more and more generous, look at this ruby, it's almost the size of my big finger, it's really flashy."
Jiang Sixue sneered, "Eldest sister still looks at the flashing eyes, although the gem on your forehead doesn't look flashy, it looks like a quail egg, I don't know if your forehead is red?" ”
Jiang Siwen was extremely angry, Jiang Sixue was at odds with her when she was in the boudoir, but she didn't expect to be against her now, "Hmph, some time ago, my husband was promoted, and someone sent a box of gems, and I played this set in the closed moon fast, and it happened that the second sister was overjoyed and wore it to increase her joy." ”
Jiang Sixue sneered, who didn't know that her eldest sister loved to show off, if the old lady had rewarded something before, the whole house would know about it in less than a day, but I didn't expect it to be the same when she got married. The eldest aunt is also a left-handed commentator of Dali Temple, and she can get this position just to see the face of the Jiang family.
And if you want to tie up a seven-grade official, you won't be too generous, look at how gorgeous the Huasheng feels, but Jiang Siwen didn't know it, and came out to show off, thinking it was really a ruby? Who can't see the way out when this clear-eyed person sees it? It's a small matter for her to lose face alone, but if it affects the reputation of their Jiang Mansion, then it is called injustice.
"It turned out that my brother-in-law was filial, but the eldest sister, teach my brother-in-law well in the future, don't take any stone as a gem, maybe people just give it to my brother-in-law to play with." You have to know what kind of object is popular in the hands of the imperial city lords recently. ”
Jiang Siwen's face turned red, remembering that the stone was not a pair, just enough to hold in her hand? Did she really get her mistaken? glanced at Jiang Sixue, and found that these three girls had become more and more dazzling after a while, especially the pair of single phoenix eyes, which were full of charm when they were oblique and picky, if they were really foxes, they were born with a little fox.
"Hmph, the third sister has seen people, you are a little lady in the boudoir, you can know so clearly what the imperial city masters are playing, isn't it that Aunt Li taught you something again? If you want me to say, the third sister, you have to study hard with your grandmother and mother, they are from everyone's background, you can go down the wrong path. ”
Jiang Sixue glared angrily, knowing that her aunt's background has always been a topic of conversation in the house, but she is also a serious master in the house, the dignified Miss Jiang San's temperament is not easy to provoke, plus Aunt Li is still favored, she also has the second master's love, so there are really few people who dare to chew the root of her tongue in front of her, this time Jiang Siwen said it in front of everyone, and she is a high-spirited person, and she can't say anything good when she is provoked like this.
"Hmph, the eldest sister really doesn't know the hearts of good people, and my sister kindly reminded you, but she was wasted by you. You don't know it, but you can swagger everywhere with a pair of stone splendors, and now you come to the house to be either rich or expensive, you behave like this, lose the face of yourself and your husband's family, but it can affect us, that is the most evil crime. You must know that the second sister is a concubine, and the Tang family you want to marry is a famous family in the Great Zhou, and you are married to the eldest grandson, so your dress is not to give the second sister face. Those who know will say that their brother-in-law's family is thin and can't take out good things, and those who don't know think that the girls in our Jiang Mansion are as blind as their big sisters.
