Chapter 731: The Big Case
"What did you say?"
Seeing that the palace gate was about to fall, Jia Cong was about to rest with Baochai, and saw Li Rong personally rushing back to the palace from Jiafu and clarifying the matter of Ma Daopo.
Hearing this, Baochai's complexion changed drastically, and Jia Cong's expression became a little trance.
It turns out that there is really a Ma Daopo......
"Your Highness, can I leave the palace?"
Li Rong asked.
Jia Cong shook his head and said, "When I leave the palace late at night, I am afraid of the traitor's plan...... Go and tell Zhan Peng, let him pass on the decree to Jinyiwei, immediately arrest Ma Daopo, and torture him severely. A detailed investigation of Ma Daopo's comings and goings to the mansion, as soon as the suspects involved in the case are involved, there is no need to play, and they will be interrogated first. There are those who resist the arrest, and there is no forgiveness for killing. This matter is personally watched by Wei Chen, and behind this matter, there must be a big name. In addition, let Zhan Peng transfer another 1,000 East Palace six rates to the Jia family to protect his servants. Li Rong, you lead people to isolate the Jia family from the Grand View Garden. All the slaves and maids of the Jia family are not allowed to enter the Grand View Garden, and the offenders will be taken down directly. The kitchen drinking water is all in charge of the palace people, but this matter does not need to alarm Sister Lin and them. ”
When Li Rong heard this, she hurriedly took her orders and left.
After she left, Jia Cong lost her sleepiness and put on her clothes again.
Seeing this, Baochai hurriedly stepped forward to serve and asked, "Master, should it be tight?" ”
Jia Cong laughed and said coldly: "This kind of shady means also want to harm me?" ”
Baochai's face changed again when she heard this, and asked, "How did you say this, didn't you want to harm the girl?" ”
Jia Cong shook his head and said, "If Sister Lin is killed and gets that tuberculosis, after returning to the palace, I will not be able to escape my fate." And then there is Sister Bao, you are bound to be infected by me. Hehe, the person behind this is a good means. actually came up with such a desperate plan, this is to make my family die! ”
When Baochai and Ying'er heard this, their faces turned pale, and they didn't think about it.
How much did the people who hated Jia Cong come up with such a plan?
Who is Ma Daopo?
Baochai's heart trembled suddenly, looked at Jia Cong in fear, and asked, "Master, will it be my mother's ......?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Where do you want to go, they are now being disciplined and looked at the Buddha, and they have long been isolated from the inside and outside." If they have such magical powers, they don't need to look for Aunt Zhao. But...... Then again, on weekdays, this Aunt Zhao looks stupid, but I didn't expect that at the critical time, she still understood a little. ”
After laughing, Jia Cong stroked Baochai's face and said, "Don't be afraid, court life will never lack such conspiracy and calculation, and this has been the case in all dynasties." But there are very few who can succeed. At least, such a small trick will never be effective for me. Sleep, I'll go to the Temple of Nourishing the Heart. ”
……
Daming Palace, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
In the Dongnuan Pavilion, after several ministers on duty were reported overnight, Jia Cong roughly explained the matter, and said: "I thought that this matter was probably not that simple, and there was a big name behind it. What do the ministers think? ”
Zhao Qingshan's face was stiff, his eyes were spewing fire, and his voice was loud: "This is a big case of rebellion!" When the first emperor was there, the three princes were unclear, and it was later found out that it was done by Prince Yizhong, but the outcome was not very detailed. Now the thief has risen again, aiming his poisonous hand at His Highness, if this thief is not removed, the country will have no peace! ”
Lin Qinghe also frowned and said, "Your Highness, this case should not be neglected. The people behind it are afraid that the plan is very big. ”
Wei Yi, who was temporarily in charge of cabinet affairs as a sacrificer, said slowly: "Its motives are nothing more than three points: one is imperial power. If His Royal Highness makes a mistake, the imperial power will inevitably fall. The second is the new law. The new law was implemented by the former emperor and the New Party, and it spread all over the world, touching the interests of too many people. Originally, they all thought that after the emperor succeeded to the throne, he would abolish the new law, but His Royal Highness unswervingly supported the new law, and the strength of support was even better than that of the previous emperor. ”
Jia Cong asked, "What about the third?" ”
Wei Yi hesitated, but still said: "Your Highness, the minister once heard a rumor, saying that it was ...... Behind Prince Yizhong, there may be ...... There may be the support of the emperor. The first emperor reigned for 14 years, although he offended countless people, but there were also many die-hard people who were quite loved. So ......"
"Presumptuous!!"
Before Wei Yi finished speaking, he saw Zhao Qingshan angrily rushing to the crown and roaring at him.
Wei Yi smiled bitterly, knelt down and pleaded: "The ministers have defiled the court with the words of the market, and ask His Highness to punish the crime." ”
Jia Cong waved his hand and said: "The cabinet is not as good as the court, and those who speak are not guilty." No matter what the ministers do, if they think it is beneficial to the country, it is okay to say it. As for what you say, Lone can tell me clearly, and this is a lie. If it was really done by his father, the first emperor would never leave an edict in person before the great deed, and pass it on to his father. Since ancient times, it is not a strange thing that the Heavenly Family has fought for imperial power. But if the three cousins who were poisoned were done by their father, would the first emperor not know? This is a fallacy that corrupts my heavenly family.
The most important thing is that the new law is the most important thing in the life of the first emperor, and it will be famous for eternity. If the infighting in the Heavenly Family is really cruel, how can Lone inherit the will of the first emperor and continue to vigorously implement the new law? Don't you know that the more prosperous the new law, the more the sage of the first emperor will be admired by future generations? In a sense, as long as the new law is implemented, the first emperor will live forever in the hearts of the people. ”
Jia Cong's previous words may not be able to convince everyone. But the latter remarks really convinced everyone.
Historically, when a new emperor ascends the throne, even if the son inherits the father's business, he will usually adopt a series of new policies to eliminate and dilute the government of the previous emperor, so as to penetrate the imperial power and respect himself.
However, instead of changing the new law, Jia Cong also promoted the law of the first emperor more and more vigorously.
How could this be the work of an enemy?
Wei Yi pleaded guilty again, Jia Cong waved his hand to exonerate himself, and said: "Wei Qing can talk about this matter directly in front of Lone, Lone can only be relieved, how can he be responsible?" In the past two years, there have been many disasters and difficulties, and the state affairs have been heavy and difficult. If the Cabinet and the Cabinet are unable to trust each other and work together in such a situation, the society will be in danger. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers of the cabinet were greatly moved.
Having the heart of the master makes every courtier think that it is the luck of life.
After a few confessions, when they talked about business again, the ministers were no longer bound and let go.
Dong Xin, the cabinet member in charge of the affairs of the household department, said in a deep voice: "The minister also has a guess, after the auction of the crystal snow formula, the minister summoned the Jin merchants and told them about the matter of the imperial court to supervise the silver number. The minister could see that the Jin merchants were extremely opposed to this matter and reacted more violently. Even though the minister warned him with His Royal Highness's words, the Jin merchants still did not think so. ”
When everyone heard this, their faces changed greatly, and Lin Qinghe said in a deep voice: "Lord Dong, you just think that this matter was done by Jin Shang?" Just businessmen, do they have the audacity? ”
Dong Xin was not afraid of Lin Qinghe, glanced at him, and continued to say to Jia Cong: "The minister will naturally not be involved for no reason, and after the minister ordered the Jin Shang Zhuyin to prepare to accept the supervision of the imperial court with an order that could not be refused, he has been waiting to be impeached by the hundred officials. Over the years, the Jin merchants have been sponsoring the scholars of the North to study, which is well known. According to the custom, on the second day, the ministers should be impeached by the hundred officials and compete with the people for profit. However, the minister waited for several days, but there was still no movement. This is by no means the norm. Of course, the minister did not conclude that this matter was done by the Jin merchants. But it's not a clue. ”
Jia Cong nodded and said, "I heard that behind the violent death of the three princes of the first emperor, there are faint shadows of some families in Jiangnan. As the saying goes, the hatred of cutting off people's money is worse than killing parents. What Dong Qing said is reasonable...... Wang Chun. ”
The eunuch in charge of the East Palace hurriedly responded: "The slave and maid are here." ”
Jia Cong said: "Spread the will of the orphan, and the brocade guard immediately outflanked the Jin Chamber of Commerce." ”
asked Dong Xin again: "Who reacted the most fiercely that day?" ”
Dong Xindao: "Back to His Royal Highness, it is Cao Zhun, the head of the Cao family in Pingyao, and the Cao family is one of the three major ticket numbers of the Jin merchants. ”
Jia Cong said "um" and continued to say to Wang Chun: "Arrest Cao Zhun, the head of the Cao family, and seize the Jingzhong Rixin Zhongyin." In addition, martial law was imposed in Beijing to prevent small incidents. ”
Wang Chun hurriedly went to pass the decree, and Jia Cong said to Zhao Qingshan again: "Tomorrow, Gu and Baiguan will send the coffin of the first emperor into the imperial tomb, and the Taifu will sit in the imperial court, and the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Lantai Temple will strictly investigate the case." This time, be sure to find out the black hand behind the scenes, and punish him in a canonical manner! ”
……
"Bang!"
Yonghefang in Yanping Gate, the view of the king of medicine.
The Taoist temple, which had long been closed, was hammered open in the quiet night, and rushed into countless Jinyi captains wearing wingless gauze hats from the Three Mountains and wearing dark black partridge brocade clothes.
Four or five Taoist women who had just finished their evening classes and some of the rough servants were stunned by the fierce gods who broke into the door.
The eyes of the first brocade guard were like electricity, and after sweeping the circle, he asked sharply, "Where is Ma Daopo?" ”
All the Taoist aunts looked at each other, and an old Taoist woman trembled and said, "Go back to ...... Back to the official, preside over today's ...... He has not returned today. ”
The brocade-clothed guard shouted and asked, "Where did the thief go?" ”
The old Taoist woman became more and more afraid, and replied tremblingly: "Today, there is a noble person in the palace of Beijing County who is sick, and I invited the host to go and recite the Medicine King Sutra, but I have not returned yet." ”
Hearing this, the Jinyi guard's face changed slightly, but he did not leave, and ordered in a deep voice to one hand: "Bring all the people in the temple back to the edict prison, search the Taoist temple, and don't let one go." ”
"Whoa!"
"The others, follow Ben to the Beijing County Palace!"
"Yes!"
……
"Da Da Da!"
"Bang Bang!"
A rush and noisy sound of horses' hooves and footsteps sounded outside the Jin Shang's hall on Gulou Street in Guangdefang, Xishi.
A disciple had already gone in to report, and before long, more than a dozen leading figures of Jin merchants walked out of the door together, and when they saw the soldiers and horses besieging and blocking, their faces changed greatly.
One of the characters stood up and asked: "Lei Zhitai, the owner of the grass people's rising days, I don't know what happened when the adults closed the door late at night?" ”
The official of the Jinyi Guard stepped forward, looked at the famous Jin merchant elite, and said, "This official Jinyi Wei Beizhen Fusi Fu Si Fu envoy Han Tao came to ask for questions by order of His Royal Highness. ”
Lei Zhitai's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "I don't know who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to ask for questioning?" Dare to ask your lord, what happened? ”
Han Tao sneered and said, "What happened?" You Jin merchants are really so bold that you dare to participate in the rebellion case of vainly plotting to kill the prince! At this moment, the entire Shenjing City has been under martial law, and the Dasuo Capital City. Where is Cao Zhun of the Cao family in Pingyao? ”
In the midst of the shock and panic, a burly man came out of the ranks, his face was pale but he couldn't hold on, and said: "It's Cao Zhun, but I don't know what the adults are talking about." ”
Han Tao stared at this person coldly for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's really guts!" Someone, please go back to the yamen for questioning. ”
"Whoa!"
A group of tiger and wolf masters stepped forward, took down Cao Zhun, who was already trembling, and dragged him out.
Han Tao said to Lei Zhitai: "Don't worry, don't go out in the guild hall these days, wait for the Jinyi Wei to meet the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Lantai Temple for trial, and you will be innocent." ”
When Lei Zhitai and the others heard this, their faces were gloomy, but who dared to say more.
Only Lei Zhitai was bolder, and he arched his hand and said: "Lord Han, Lord Lao will say a word to His Highness on behalf of the grass people." ”
Hearing this, Han Tao raised his eyebrows and asked, "What words?" ”
Lei Zhitai said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, some ministers talked with the grass people about the matter of the imperial court supervising the investment in the silver number, after a few days of discussion, the grass people and others thought that this was the kindness of His Royal Highness to protect the grass people, and the grass people were grateful and willing to accept this trip. ”
When Han Tao heard this, he glanced at Lei Zhitai deeply, and his eyes swept over the Jin merchants behind him who were becoming more and more chaotic, smiled faintly, and said, "If Lei is the shopkeeper, this official will play His Royal Highness the Prince." But this official still reminds you, don't underestimate His Highness's bearing. If tonight's events have nothing to do with you, whether you accept the court's kindness or not, you will be safe. If it really has anything to do with you, don't say anything silver, even if you bring all the silver from Daqian, you won't be able to save your lives! Murdering the prince, madness, intolerable heaven! ”
Lei Zhitai held his head high and said: "Don't worry, other grass people don't dare to vouch, but they don't dare to do such a trip of beasts without a king and a father." ”
Han Tao looked at him straight and said, "You don't have to come forward directly, doesn't it count if you give out the money in the back?" ”
After ignoring Lei Zhitai, whose complexion suddenly changed, and leaving a team of brocade-clothed soldiers and horses to block the Jin Chamber of Commerce, Han Tao led people to press Cao Zhun to leave.
On this night, the capital shook, and the world shook!
