Chapter XVI: Reversal of the case

When Empress Dowager Jiang heard Jiuhuang's words, she glanced at Zhao Yun obliquely, and only after seeing that there was no dissatisfaction on his face, did she say to Zhao Yun after the podium: "Emperor, what Jiuhuang said is the truth?" ”

Empress Dowager Jiang actually accused Zhao Yun of her fault in front of all the ministers of the Celestial Empire, but she was also very worried in her heart.

Looking at Zhao Yun's changed face, Empress Dowager Jiang spoke again: "The mourning family believes that the emperor has always been a Ming monarch, and he will definitely wash away his grievances for Xu Yang!" ”

seems to be complimenting the emperor's words, but only Zhao Yun knows that Empress Dowager Jiang's words are putting pressure on him, in front of the ministers, even if Empress Dowager Jiang came to the palace in disregard of national law and participated in politics, but Zhao Yun can't really put Empress Dowager Jiang like this, if it is spread out like this, Hui'er and the people of the Celestial Empire think that Zhao Yun is not a filial Ming monarch.

And Empress Dowager Jiang can say this, what she relies on is only Zhao Yun's filial piety to her in her heart, if Zhao Yun really doesn't care about her reputation and talks about women's participation in politics, she can't participate in Xu Yang's matter, and she can't help Jiuhuang. Fortunately, it is Zhao Yun's heart, and the filial piety to him can be seen from this matter.

In order not to sweep away Empress Dowager Jiang's prestige in front of the courtiers, Zhao Yun really couldn't really say that Xu Yang's matter was framed, wouldn't that be a slap in the face.

Regarding whether Xu Yang was wrongfully framed, Zhao Yun asked the Dali Temple, the leader of the Celestial Dynasty, to find out the truth, and it was the Dali Temple that found out that Xu Yang was greedy for ink was a fact, and Zhao Yun ate and ordered Xu Yang to be dismissed and exiled to the border.

If it is said now that Xu Yang was wronged and framed, then this is not to say that the Dali Temple, the leader of the Celestial Empire, is not capable at all, and he can't even find out a thing that is greedy for ink, and he also frames Zhongliang, in this case, the Celestial Empire will face a panic, and the people's distrust of the emperor, such a result is not what Zhao Yun wants to see.

Therefore, in the end, Zhao Yun thought about it in his heart before saying to the Empress Dowager Jiang: "Queen Mother, Xu Yang's matter has already been found out by Dali Temple. ”

Before Empress Dowager Jiang could speak, Jiuhuang, who was kneeling in the main hall, heard Zhao Yun's words, and immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, the courtier's father-in-law was indeed wronged, and I hope that the emperor can find out about this matter and return the courtier's father-in-law to innocence." ”

In the face of Jiuhuang's overstepping again and again, even if Zhao Yun tolerated Jiuhuang's faux pas because of Jiuhuang's achievements in his heart, her constant provocation also made Zhao Yun have murderous intent towards Jiuhuang.

"Someone is coming, the lord of Jiuhuang County broke into the Jinluan Palace, ignored the laws of the Heavenly Empire, and immediately went to prison." Zhao Yun looked at the nine phoenixes kneeling on the main hall, and then said to the Imperial Forest Army outside the entrance of the main hall.

Zhao Yun's words had just fallen, and two royal forest soldiers came in from the door of the main hall, and when the Empress Dowager Jiang saw this situation, she didn't care that this was in court politics, and women were not allowed to participate in politics, forgetting what kind of embarrassing situation her behavior pushed Zhao Yun into the makeup flute, and only heard her say to the royal forest army who came in the main hall to take nine phoenixes: "Stop for the mourning family, the person in front of you is King Jing, whoever dares to take her in charge must first get the will of the mourning family." ”

After Empress Dowager Jiang finished talking about this matter, she turned her head to look at Zhao Yun and said: "The emperor is angry, the emperor, as the emperor of the Celestial Empire, should be blessed for the people of my Celestial Empire, if the matter of Xu Yang is really wronged and framed, why don't the emperor overturn the case for him, so that the people will also be grateful to the emperor's sage." ”

Zhao Yun looked at the firmness in Empress Dowager Jiang's eyes, and the words she just said in her heart were not just words, which made him feel very helpless; He didn't understand why Empress Dowager Jiang, who didn't meddle in the government, was so firm in the face of Xu Yang's matter, so firm that she didn't care to refute him in front of all the ministers, he really had to ask Empress Dowager Jiang first, why did she do this?

Facing Zhao Yun's eyes on her, Empress Dowager Jiang didn't dare to look directly at Zhao Yun.

In fact, the Empress Dowager Jiang's heart is also unwilling to refute the emperor in front of the ministers, which will make the historian make a note in the history books, and the Empress Dowager of a certain dynasty ignores women and is not allowed to participate in politics, so that the Empress Dowager Jiang will leave a black ink in the history books.

Obviously, Empress Dowager Jiang, who did this, already knew what the consequences would be if she did this, and she didn't care how the historian would leave her a mark in the history books; It is said that at this time, the relationship between her and Emperor Zhao Yun will also become estranged.

"The queen mother also thinks that I should review Xu Yang's matter anew?" Zhao Yun looked at the Empress Dowager Jiang beside him, and asked in an extremely soft and flat voice.

Caught off guard, Empress Dowager Jiang didn't expect Zhao Yun to ask her like this. She was stunned for a moment, and then she understood that Zhao Yun was still blaming her for this; It's just that for the sake of the Celestial Empire, she has to do this.

"Emperor, you are the emperor of the Celestial Empire, it is still up to you to decide whether to review Xu Yang from the new one, the mourning family is just a person from the harem, and you must discuss this matter with the ministers." Yuan Taifu, Mei Hanlin, and Shen Yushi are all veterans of several dynasties, and I believe that they will be able to solve problems for the emperor. ”

Empress Dowager Jiang's words made the courtiers in the main hall below feel nervous, the queen mother was helping Jiuhuang openly and secretly, and the courtiers she pointed out were all high-ranking courtiers and elders, and they were all on Jiuhuang's side.

"Father, the sons also implore the father to be able to see the filial piety of the Jiuhuang County Lord who broke into the Jinluan Palace to ask the father to overturn the case for Xu Yang, regardless of his death, and can agree to review Xu Yang's embezzlement of ink from the beginning."

Zhao Xuan's sudden opening made Zhao Yun's heart slightly stunned, and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, it seems that today he has to agree to the new review of Xu Yang.

There is Empress Dowager Jiang interceding for Jiuhuang, and there is the prince who feels the most guilty or the future emperor of the Celestial Dynasty interceding for her; Zhao Yun knew that above the main hall of the lower head, there were also many ministers and high-ranking ministers who also wanted him to review Xu Yang from the beginning, but they didn't say it.

It has been decades since Zhao Yun became emperor, and he has never looked so aggrieved in front of all his ministers. In all countries, who can be an emperor like him and be so aggrieved.

In the end, in the face of Zhao Xuan's plea and Empress Dowager Jiang's help, Zhao Yun had to agree to Jiuhuang's request for a new review of Xu Yang's case.

"I give you two days, if you can't find evidence that Xu Yang was wrongfully framed, then you and all the people in the Xu Mansion will have to be exiled to the border."

Zhao Yun said to Jiuhuang.

When Jiuhuang heard Xu Yang's words, he knew that Zhao Yun was really angry this time, so he would take the lives of more than 100 innocent people in the Xu Mansion.

However, Jiuhuang can break into the Jinluan Hall without regard for her life, and she will not break in without being completely sure; So after hearing Zhao Yun's words, the only feeling in Jiuhuang's heart was relaxation, and finally she got Zhao Yun's will.

As long as Zhao Yun agrees to re-examine Xu Yang's greed for ink, then Xu Yang will have a turnaround, and he will not be exiled to the border after the autumn.

"The courtiers have thanked the emperor!"

Yang Jin looked at it in a blink of an eye, how suddenly Jiuhuang, who was about to be put in prison by the emperor, Zhao Yun agreed to Jiuhuang's request and reviewed Xu Yang's case anew.

However, looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Jing also knew that it was useless to say anything now, Zhao Yun's will had already been made, how could he know that Zhao Yun was angry now, and say anything to oppose the new review of Xu Yang.

Although the truth of Xu Yang's embezzlement of ink was investigated by Dali Temple, Zhao Yun still asked Dali Temple to handle Jiuhuang's request to review Xu Yang's case from scratch this time; It's just that this time there is one more Jiuhuang and Zhao Xuan, who came from his own will.

"Since you are discussing the affairs of the court, it is time for the mourning family to go."

After seeing Zhao Yun's resignation and agreeing to review Xu Yang from a new perspective, Empress Dowager Jiang glanced at Jiuhuang, and then said to Zhao Yun.

Hearing that Empress Dowager Jiang was leaving, Zhao Yun said directly to Empress Dowager Jiang: "Erchen sends off his mother!" ”

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother!"

Seeing this, the ministers also knelt down one after another to send off the Empress Dowager Jiang.

After Empress Dowager Jiang left, Zhao Yun, who was very angry today, also ended today's morning dynasty.

After waiting for the next dynasty, Yang Jin hurriedly returned to the Taishi Mansion, entered the study, and asked the secret guard: "Xu Yang's matter, can you arrange it over there?" ”

The dark guard didn't know what happened to the morning court today, but he looked at Yang Jin's unhappy face when he returned home, the dark guard knew that Yang Jin must have encountered something that made him unhappy in the morning court, and now hearing Yang Jin ask like this, a hint of foreboding flashed in the dark guard's heart.

"Master, the subordinates have sealed everything over there, and according to the master's intentions, I promised him to let him return to Shangjing after the matter is completed."

When Yang Jin heard the secret guard's answer, he felt that something was not quite right, but he couldn't feel it.

After being silent for a moment, Yang Jin said: "If he doesn't do what I tell him to leak a word about this matter, he doesn't need to report it to me, and he will solve the problem directly." ”

After Yang Jin said this, he was suddenly stunned, and then he remembered what Jiuhuang had said in the early dynasty, she had a testimony and found the person who framed Xu Yang, could it be?

Yang Jin didn't dare to imagine the rest of the matter, if that person was really caught by Jiuhuang, then Xu Yang couldn't help but get out of prison, or he might even be involved in this matter.

"Where is that man now?" Yang Jin asked the secret guard beside him.

When the secret guard heard this, he said to Yang Jin: "It's still in Jiangnan, I left someone to watch them." ”

Although the dark guard said this, the uneasiness in Yang Jin's heart became bigger and bigger, and then he said to the dark guard: "Don't let people guard him, just let the people over there do it and solve the people." ”

Seeing the bloodthirsty light flashing in Yang Jin's eyes, even though the dark guard wondered why Yang Jin suddenly let them do something to deal with people, he still didn't dare to ask after looking at Yang Jin's face, so he had to answer Yang Jin's words.
