Chapter 242: Settle accounts after the autumn

Xianfeng's Zigong and Xingzai finally arrived in the capital, and all of them, whether it was Su Shun or Duanhua, were sent to the Zongren Mansion and the Heavenly Prison of the Criminal Department.

The eight ministers who took care of their lives finally made the mandarin ducks with the same fate, and blamed Su Shun for doing things too well, and even excluded all the emperors and yin from the decision-making level, this appearance was too ugly, and then there was news of coercing the queen mother of the two palaces, where can this emperor and yin still be able to sit still, and when they return to the capital in the future, they will not have to ride on their own These princes are less and pee?

It is these actions of Su Shun that forced all the Emperor Yin and his family to the side of Prince Gong, in addition to these princes, there are also political enemies of Su Shun, in the court, not only Su Shun is one person who covers the sky with one hand, and there is a monk Greenqin in the distance, that is the elder of the Three Dynasties, the minister of the Xianfeng Dynasty, who has made great achievements, and can get around it, all in the court, as well as Shen Zhaolin and others in the household department, as long as they disagree with Su Shun's political views, they are all suppressed by Su Shun, and they do not leave any way out for themselves, which is death in itself!

Now that the eight ministers have all become prisoners, how to deal with the aftermath has become a matter that continues to be solved at present.

First of all, there is the problem of state affairs, now that all the eight ministers are in prison, even if it is the original Minister of Military Aircraft, only Wen Xiang is left, and the Military Aircraft Department is empty, who will govern? In such a big country, there are countless excerpts sent every day, even if Wen Xiang is tired to death, he can't be busy, and the reorganization of the Military Aircraft Department is already an imminent matter.

But the reorganization of the Military Aircraft Department is one thing, and there is another thing, that is, the emperor is young. He was only six years old. It's still a runny little kid. If you don't understand anything, how can you deal with political affairs? Two palaces to listen to politics? This is not in line with the ancestral system, hen Si Chen, even if Cixi wants power again, she has to take into account the reaction of the courtiers; Let the prince regent? Obviously, among the many princes, the one who is expected to return is Prince Gong? up, but. The position of the regent is not so easy to do, a regent has too much power, and it is easy to lose the tail, the original Dolgon is proof, during the reign, I don't know how many political enemies, died at the hands of Dolgon, not only that, but even the Queen Mother of Xiaozhuang had to marry Dolgon. Used to balance the situation in the court, even Dolgon was revered as regent of the imperial father! Something like that. It's chilling to think about!

As for Prince Gong, he definitely doesn't have that kind of ambition, Yixin is very sober, regent, although Dolgon was in power for a while, but the final end was also tragic to the family, after his death, he was not only deprived of the title of hereditary Prince Heshuorui, but even the body was dug out of the grave and whipped the corpse, and the back of Aobai, although not the regent, but also the power of the world, in the end, was honestly cleaned up by Kangxi, and committed suicide in prison!

Lao Tzu is now the first prince of the Qing Dynasty, unspeakably expensive, just for the sake of coveting temporary power, he will ruin all his future net worth and life, and even implicate his children and grandchildren, the gains outweigh the losses!

However, the method is always figured out.

If it doesn't work to hang the curtain and listen to politics, then let's just hang the curtain and not get involved in politics, okay? If the regent can't do it, then let's discuss the king of politics or not, there is Prince Gong as the foreman and minister of military aircraft, who is responsible for temporarily handling the affairs of a country!

After all, this problem was solved, and Prince Gong went out of the mountain to assist the government, and the queen mother of the two palaces hung the curtain, and the highest form of decision-making in a country was born.

Next is the military aircraft department, Prince Gong first carried out the monk Greenqin, after all, Monk Greenqin is very old, hard work, no one will have any objection to this, but Monk Greenqin is far away in Shandong to suppress bandits, and can only lead the errand of the minister of military aircraft, and then, Prince Gong will Wenxiang, Gui Liang, Baojun, Wenxiang, Shen Zhaolin, Cao Yuying promoted to the minister of military aircraft, and the entire military aircraft prescription returned to normal.

After the military aircraft department returned to normal, the first thing was to discuss the rebellion of Su Shun and others, and there was no doubt about it, if it was true that the two palaces and King Gong denied this, that is, they were plotting to usurp the throne, how could they overthrow it again?

As long as the current Cixi hears Su Shun's name, she grits her teeth with hatred, damn it, how did he persecute our mother when he was in Rehe? How did he provoke the relationship between me and the emperor in front of the emperor in the first place? This is all done by Su Shun! This hatred and hatred are not shared!

Even Ci'an was very angry with Su Shun, and there was no objection to the heavy punishment.

"King Gong, Lord Wen, you talk about it, how to deal with a few of them, disaster to the country and the people, nothing more than this, must be severely punished, in order to relieve the hatred in your heart!"

Cixi even threw out such words, that is, it has already been made clear, and severe punishment will not be granted!

"Empress Dowager Qi, according to the laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty, Su Shun and others committed rebellion, plotting misdeeds, and the crime is unforgivable! Su Shun, Duanhua, Zaiyuan, and Jiao Youying should be sentenced to Ling Chi, Mu Meng and Kuang Yuan should have been decided, and Du Han should have been decided, but after reading that he was the emperor, he read the feelings of the first emperor, so as to avoid his death, he was demoted to a commoner, and he would never be hired, as for Jing Shou, although he was also a minister who took care of his life, he did not have much participation in these things, and he could be spared from death, and his title would be fined for three years to show severe punishment! ”

Prince Gong replied.

Cixi nodded, and the anger in her heart calmed down a little, and Ci'an on the side frowned, and said, "King Gong, isn't this treatment too harsh?" ”

King Gong replied: "The Queen Mother, this is a great crime of rebellion, if it is not severely punished, how can you warn the latter?" ”

Ci'an hesitated for a moment and said, "King Gong, after all, they are all close associates and ministers of the first emperor, and they always have to leave some affection. ”

King Gong looked at Wen Xiang on the side, Wen Xiang hurriedly said: "In this case, the minister thought that he could reduce the crimes of several people, Su Shun, Zaiyuan, Duanhua, Jiao Youying and others were decided, Kuang Yuan and Mu Mengci committed suicide, Du Han exiled Ningguta, and as for Jing Shou, his title will be Wu Ningbo, think about it behind closed doors." ”

Although Cixi didn't talk about satisfaction, Ci'an came out to say that he couldn't leave a too mean impression, so he reluctantly agreed.

The matter of the eight ministers has been dealt with, and next, it is natural to reward the princes from all walks of life, this action is tantamount to a mutiny, many of them have the merit of "supporting", and they will be rewarded for their merit, there is nothing to say, otherwise, who will give you your life? And this reward must not be thin, it will be my own family in the future, and I will be both prosperous and lossy.
