Chapter 412: Taking care of the aftermath
Yanxi Palace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This main hall, which is still the place where the emperor temporarily handles government affairs, suddenly resounded with a violent voice.
"Who gave you the courage to force a second-grade member of the imperial court to death like this?"
In the main hall, the emperor sat on the throne, his face gloomy and his eyes were not good.
And in His Royal Highness, in addition to the cabinet ministers, there are also six chief officials and the imperial history of the left capital, it can be said that the core forces of the court are here, but at this moment, they are looking at each other, bowing their heads and not daring to speak.
Obviously, the emperor's anger was not directed at them, but at a young man in royal clothes in the center of the central hall.
Zhu Changluo drooped his head, looked like he had obediently admitted his mistake, and said.
"Father, the son knows his mistake, and the son is also anxious, who would have thought that Lord Li had such a strong temperament that he committed suicide by hitting the pillar to prove his innocence! This matter is a poor consideration of the son, please punish the father! ”
In fact, even Zhu Changluo didn't expect that Li San would really commit suicide by hitting the pillar.
After all, there are actually many problems with his rhetoric outside the Chengtian Gate, the most obvious point and the most important point is the problem of the Jianzhou Jurchen, you know, now the Jianzhou Jurchen is still a subsidiary tribe of the Ming Dynasty, although Zhu Changluo put a hat on them with the intention of rebellion on the grounds of resisting the decree.
But in the final analysis, in addition to the fact that Nurhachi refused to enter Beijing to see the truth, there were only a few letters seized by Liu Shixin left, although those people of the Fan family were arrested, but they were willing to admit anything, but they would never admit that the Jianzhou Jurchens intended to rebel, you know, colluding with the thieves, this is the crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan.
What's more, if this kind of crime of attempted rebellion is really confirmed, unless Nurhachi really rebels, it can only be an attempt to rebel!
Besides, even if this point is confirmed, it is the Fan family who colluded with Jianzhou Nuzhen, not Li Sancai, whether Li Sancai knows about it is another question, not to mention that Li Sancai did not act too out of line except for writing a letter to the prefect, which caused Liu Shixin to be wronged to death.
Therefore, it is unrealistic to really convict him of treason!
The only thing that can be convicted is that he accepted a large amount of bribes, and this level of crime, for a second-class official, is absolutely not a crime to death, and the biggest possibility is to lose his official position and be sent back to his hometown!
Zhu Changluo believed this, and Li Sancai also knew it, so he didn't think that he would really commit suicide, after all, if there was hope of living, no one would want to die!
But facts have proved that Zhu Changluo underestimated the integrity of the so-called Wenchen......
In other words, he didn't know enough about Li Sancai, although Li Sancai was born in a family of military attachés, he was deeply influenced by Confucianism, and what his father and ancestors brought him was a character that would rather bend than bend.
Let him live in the world with infamy, it is better to die happily!
Although the imperial court may not convict him of treason, but in front of such public eyes, such a thing happened, Li Sancai's reputation was ruined, and his career would definitely come to an end.
He lives, but he has to bear everyone's accusations and infamy.
But if he dies, he can still have a strong reputation, not to mention the ancient Chinese system, the dead are the greatest!
As soon as Li Sancai died, thinking of his contributions to the court for so many years, he believed that the court would not treat him badly, life and death, the disparity between the chips on both sides was so huge, Li Sancai naturally chose to die without hesitation......
Of course, it is undeniable that the situation at that time was also an incomparably huge blow to Li Sancai's spirit......
But he died, but Zhu Changluo was unlucky, Li Sancai had just died, and before everyone could react, the eunuch Chen Ju, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, passed the decree out, saying that although Li Sancai accepted bribes and protected people's wings, he supervised Caoyun for many years, remembered his hard work, and did not commit serious crimes, and ordered the Ministry of Rites to help Li Sancai return to his hometown and be buried under the regulation of the second grade.
And the courtiers were all grateful for the emperor's benevolence, and after Li Sancai made such a big mistake, they could still mourn him after his death, and shouted long live the emperor on the spot, and a mighty deduction time ended in such a situation.
This really made Zhu Changluo depressed, and let him do the dirty work of offending people, but in the end, he, the emperor's father, said two fluttering words, and the benefits all belonged to him.
And Zhu Changluo himself has to kneel here honestly and be "responsible" for "forcing to die" a court official!
In the final analysis, it was Zhu Changluo who opened up the truth of the whole matter in full view of everyone, and "authorized" leaked the confidential military information in Jinyiwei, resulting in the death of a second-grade senior officer without trial or judgment in the whole matter, this pot, he can't rely on it!
"Your Majesty is angry, the old minister thinks that although His Royal Highness's act of leaking military information is inappropriate, he has a pure heart, not to mention that what he said is true, Li Sancai's death is really difficult for him to accept such a blow, and he suffered it himself, not His Highness's fault, please Your Majesty will learn from it!"
Seeing that Zhu Changluo was so trained, the Zuodu Yu Shi Zhenji couldn't help but stand up and said.
In the whole process of detaining the que, he can be regarded as receiving Zhu Changluo's favor, if Zhu Changluo hadn't rushed to Nanzhen Fusi in time to solve the matter of the scholar's invasion, then he would have become a colluding factory guard now, and the end would probably not be much better than Li Sancai.
Seeing the emperor so angry at this moment, Zhen Zhenji was the first to stand up.
"Humph!"
Zhu Yijun's face was a little pale, after all, Zhen Zhenji is the imperial history of Zuodu, he still has to give some face, slowly shook his head, and said.
"Zhen Aiqing, I don't mean to blame him on purpose, it's really that he was too reckless this time, and now that the crown ceremony is imminent, if he has been reckless, how can I rest assured that I will hand over the position of the East Palace to him?"
After a pause, Zhu Yijun's face sank like water, and said.
"Take this matter as an example, Li Sancai's death is a small matter, but once this news spreads, my Daming and Jianzhou Jurchen will completely tear their faces, and now
The war with the Wa Kingdom is imminent, if the Jianzhou Jurchens really raise troops to attack, and our army suffers from the enemy, what should we do? ”
However, Zhu Yijun on the throne was very angry, but the ministers below were bright-eyed, because although the emperor was angry, he was clearly worried and uneasy, and this was the first time that the emperor had said so clearly that he wanted to make Zhu Changluo the crown prince!
Exchanging glances with each other, Wang Xijue strode out and said.
"Your Majesty is angry, the old minister thinks that the situation is not as serious as imagined, the Jurchen tribe has been divided and divided for a long time, although Nurhachi unified the Jianzhou Jurchen, but there is still Haixi Jurchen eyeing the tiger, a few days ago there was news that the Jianzhou Jurchen Chen soldiers border, the Haixi Jurchen tiger eye, so the old minister thought that he would not take risks at this time, counterattack my Daming, but my Daming, can take this opportunity to make the ministers recognize their faces, in case of accidents in the future!"
Zhu Yijun's face was softened, but he waved his hand and said.
"Yuanfu doesn't have to say good things for him, this is of course the best situation, but the battlefield matter, who can say clearly, King Shou's move has made my army more dangerous, this is an indisputable fact! Since he made a mistake, he should be punished, and since he caused a mess, let him clean up by himself! Chen Ju, passing the decree, ordered the Ministry of Rites to push forward the time of the crown ceremony, the time of the big wedding to be postponed, and after the crown ceremony of the eldest son of the emperor, he immediately went to Liaodong with the army! ”
