Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chongzhen saw Empress Zhou kneeling on the ground at a glance, and with a little helplessness, he walked to Empress Zhou's side and said in a deep voice: "Get up!" The dignified queen, it's not proper to kneel here! ”

As he spoke, Emperor Chongzhen stretched out his hand, helped Empress Zhou up from the ground, and straightened out Empress Zhou's bun. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Looking at Emperor Chongzhen, Empress Zhou's eyes were a little red, tears were rolling in her eyes, and she bit her lip and said: "Your Majesty, it's the concubine's fault, the concubine didn't discipline her family well, which disappointed the emperor." As he spoke, he took out five thousand taels of silver tickets and handed them to Emperor Chongzhen: "This is a little bit of the concubine's heart, a little heart for the victims." ”

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the money taken out by Empress Zhou, nodded, stretched out his hand to take the money, and handed it to Wang Chengen beside him: "Put it away, and release the news in addition!" ”

Wang Chengen nodded, bowed down and said, "The slave knows how to do it, the emperor can rest assured!" ”

At this time, it is very important to separate the affairs of the Zhou family from Queen Zhou and establish the prestige of Queen Zhou's mother in the world.

Stretching out his hand to pull Empress Zhou, the two of them walked into the Qianqing Palace together, Emperor Chongzhen stretched out his hand and patted Empress Zhou's hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "It's the first time I've seen the queen like this, the days were so difficult before, and the queen has never been like this." ”

Leaning on Emperor Chongzhen's arms, Empress Zhou said in amazement: "At that time, I knew that the emperor and the concubine were together, so the concubine was not afraid of anything, and the concubine was fearless. This time it's different, the concubine is afraid! ”

Emperor Chongzhen stretched out his hand and patted Empress Zhou's back and comforted: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, I really don't know how to talk to you." ”

Empress Zhou nodded, and said obediently: "The concubine understands that the concubine has already warned her father and will not let him mix with him, this time it is the younger brother who has done something wrong, then you have to admit punishment, how the emperor falls, the concubine does not blame the emperor." ”

"Really?" Emperor Chongzhen looked at Empress Zhou playfully, with a hint of a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"Of course!" Empress Zhou hurriedly said, seeing Emperor Chongzhen's expression, how could Empress Zhou not understand, and said coquettishly: "The emperor is teasing the concubine again." ”

Smiling slightly, Emperor Chongzhen said in a deep voice: "I am very angry about this incident, but it is useless to be angry, but I will severely punish those involved in this matter, so as not to let them feel pain, I can't let out this breath." ”

Queen Zhou sighed in her heart, knowing that this time her younger brother wanted to come out, I was afraid it would not be so easy, so she said: "These people are really hateful, and the emperor should clean them up." ”

comforted Empress Zhou, and Emperor Chongzhen said that he would go to Kunning Palace at night, so he sent Empress Zhou away.

Glancing at Wang Chengen beside him, Emperor Chongzhen instructed: "Early tomorrow morning, tell me to get up, I will go to the morning court." ”

Wang Chengen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "The slave understands!" "You must know that Emperor Chongzhen has not been to the early court for a few days, and he has been saying that he is uncomfortable, obviously this time Emperor Chongzhen is going to take it to the court to solve it.

Emperor Chongzhen used to feel that the time was not ripe, and he had to wait, but now Emperor Chongzhen doesn't think so, there is never a time in this world when the time is ripe, maybe there is, but he can't wait.

Stability has been restored inside the palace, but rumors are still spreading outside the palace, and there is a tendency for mountains and rains to come.

Zhou Kui entered the palace, countless people were waiting for the result, and before Zhou Kui left the palace, the news had already spread. Zhou Kui, the national abbot, was severely reprimanded by Queen Zhou, and then the queen ran to the gate of the Qianqing Palace to kneel down and plead guilty.

Originally, I wanted someone to see Zhou Kui, but after Zhou Kui returned home, he said that he was sick and thanked the guests.

Smart people have seen the direction of the wind, the emperor is going to move seriously this time, and everyone who is involved in this matter has become bottomless in their hearts. Everyone has no clue how to deal with this matter for Emperor Chongzhen.

But everyone knows that this time the matter is not trivial, after all, Emperor Chongzhen has issued an edict of guilt.

The queen was also punished, and she also gave 5,000 taels to the victims, and the uncle was still in Jinyiwei's edict prison, would Emperor Chongzhen let others go?

At this moment, Dongchang was unusually busy, and Fang Zhenghua followed Emperor Chongzhen back from outside the city and was furious with his men. These days, Founder Zhenghua has almost controlled the East Factory, and these people in the East Factory are also very afraid of Fang Zhenghua.

This father-in-law Fang is the master who kills people if he disagrees, who is not afraid? After the reprimand, the huge machine of the East Factory was put into operation.

No one knows how deep the foundation of the East Factory is, and an intelligence agency that has existed for more than 200 years really has the power to be underestimated.

Fang Zhenghua sat in the lobby of the East Factory, his face expressionless, and several little eunuchs stood behind him, holding a cup of tea at the right temperature in his hand, sipping it lightly, looking at his busy subordinates from time to time, and people suddenly felt cold hands and feet.

"Factory father, there's news!" Chen Feng, the commander of the East Factory, strode in, saluted Fang Zhenghua, and said respectfully.

Glancing at Chen Feng, Fang Zhenghua nodded and said, "Let's hear it!" ”

"Back to my father-in-law, Shuntian Mansion Yin raised 50,000 quintals of grain, but there are only 20,000 quintals in the official warehouse, and there is still a gap of 30,000 quintals." Chen Feng hurriedly said: "These 30,000 quintals of grain are all from a shop called Xinglong Rice Shop, and I sent someone to inquire, the owner of this rice shop is called Shang Fu, and he is the distant uncle of the fourth lady of Yin Zhou Tianlu of Shuntian Mansion." ”

Fang Zhenghua smiled, it would be strange if there was no cat in this, nodded and motioned for Chen Feng to continue.

"This Shangfu originally started as a rice shop, and in order to tie up with Zhou Fulu, he married his niece to Zhou Tianlu." Chen Feng continued: "The relationship between Zhou Tianlu and Shang Fu is not clear, but there must be a relationship. ”

Picking up his slightly squinted eyes, Fang Zhenghua stared at Chen Feng: "This is the result you found out?" Matter? ”

"Lord Hui, the big shopkeeper of Mi Xing is called Shang Huairen, and he is Shang Fu's nephew, and he thinks that he must know something, and he has been quietly arrested back!" Chen Feng hurriedly added: "It's being interrogated!" ”

Fang Zhenghua nodded, this is about the same, got up from the chair and said: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look, maybe it's a hard bone!" ”

Just as Fang Zhenghua was about to get up and go, He He, who was sentenced to punishment, had already strode in, bowed down and said: "Qiqi factory official, Shang Huairen has already explained, not only is this disaster relief a cat, but Zhou Fulu is also a big corrupt official. As he spoke, he handed a confession to the little eunuch beside Fang Zhenghua.
