The autumn of the thirtieth year of Fengyuan

Jingguo, the Prime Minister's Mansion in the west of the city, is originally the location of the capital in the west of the city, because it is far away from the market, few people usually come, and the courtyard is cold.

But today, the whole street in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion is full of lights, so it is not lively, and I saw that the people who came in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion were about to break through this door.

Opposite the Prime Minister's Mansion, a newcomer who sold fireworks asked the owner of the fireworks seller next to him: "I said that there are usually no people in the west of the city, why are there more people in the east city today?" ”

The boss who sold fireworks on the side explained to him while collecting the copper plate that the child had just bought for him in his hand: "Brother has just entered Beijing, today is the birthday of Xi Xiangye, although this Xiangye usually likes to be clean and does not like to interact with people, but this year's birthday is naturally different, this kind of day, those who are officials, businessmen, which also go to the East City, have come to this western suburbs!" ”

When the two of them were talking to call each other brothers, the bustling Xiangfu came to the uninvited guest, and the four black images flew from above as light as swallows, falling gently, standing on the roof of the Xiangfu, such a bright sky, showing that the four black-clothed people wearing hats were extremely abrupt.

The people below saw this scene, they all discussed, and the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion also collectively drew their swords against these people, among the guests, Jing Zhao Yin Zhao Enzheng, who was usually good friends with Xi Fang, saw that the master had not come out yet, so he wanted to greet the four people for the master's family, but he looked at it and saw the lotus mandarin duck picture embroidered on the robes of these four people, and was stunned!

A line of old tears suddenly flowed down his eyes, compared to the other people present, his current appearance is more abrupt than the four people on the roof, but only he himself understands, and mutters in his mouth: "It's still here after all!" ”

At this time, some of the guests who came to congratulate him on his birthday also recognized it, and he shouted out regardless of his usual behavior as a dignitary: "It's a mirage!" ”

The mirage, in the Jingguo of the rule of law, is a special case, directly under the supervision of His Majesty the Emperor, and is not subject to the dispatch and control of any other person.

To put it simply, they are on the same level as the law of Jingguo, or they are the law.

The people of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion were stunned, and then they all hurriedly knelt down on the people on the roof, because His Majesty the Emperor, who single-handedly founded the mirage, also said that wherever the mirage went, it was like me coming in person.

Just as everyone was kneeling, a calm voice came from inside the house.

"Chen Xifang, see Your Majesty!"

A radiant middle-aged man walked out from the back of the main hall, and walked steadily into the courtyard, the clothes he was wearing were clean and elegant, not stained with a trace of luxury, and his face was like clothes, only the word clean was seen.

The gaze in his eyes was like the windless sea, calmly looking at the uninvited guests on the roof, he did not bow down to the four like the others, but just bowed, and then naturally put his hands behind his back.

The black-robed man led by him did not feel that he had any disrespect for His Majesty, because even if His Majesty came in person, it would be like this, and in the life of Lord Xiangguo, no one had ever seen him kneel.

The black-robed man took out the decree from behind his back, but instead of reading it directly, he and the other three fell directly from the roof in front of Xi Fang.

The man in black saluted Xi Fang, and then said, "Your Majesty will say hello to you, and I wish Hou Ye an auspicious birthday!" ”

Xi Fang showed a slight smile on his face and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, but you came on behalf of your father-in-law in the palace, presumably Your Majesty has something else to explain!" ”

At this time, the holy decree embroidered with the unique five-clawed black dragon picture of the Jingguo royal family was slowly opened, and the man in black held the holy decree, but when he saw the words written on the holy decree, there was a "hissing" sound in the hat, and even he, the person who delivered the decree, was shocked by this content.

He calmed down and said: "The criminal minister Xi Fang, because of his own selfish desires, deceived the king, and privately appropriated 50,000 taels of the national treasury, but he remembered his military merits and political achievements, and did not commit capital crimes, and all his family property was collected into the national treasury, Xi Fang was removed from the post of prime minister, and was put into prison pending trial, and his son was removed from the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the rest of the family members were placed in the prime minister's mansion, and there was no will, and they were not allowed to step out of the mansion for half a step!" Chin this! ”

The people kneeling on the ground also didn't react for a while because the content of the holy decree was too terrifying, and at this time, the guards of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion had been taken over by the Beisi Forbidden Army who had been dispatched.

Xi Fang, who was standing like a pine in the courtyard, did not act surprised, as if he had already known the news, waved his hand to Zhao Enzheng who was kneeling on the ground, and motioned him to wipe his tears. Then he turned around calmly and said in the direction of the palace: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

In this way, as the people of Xifu were slowly dispersed and hung on the main gate, the plaque of Xiangguofu that was given by the emperor was taken down. A generation of famous ministers finally entered the prison that never saw the light of day.

After Xi Fang was imprisoned, the officials, people, and scholars who appealed to Xi Fang were dismissed one by one, their homes were raided, and they were assigned to fill the army, and even Yaxiang Wang Jin was executed when he pleaded in the palace.

But did you see the boy who left Beijing?
