Don't look at it, it's just a triple pension.

For those who died in battle, the ordinary pension is only one hundred taels, and three times it is a large sum of money, which is enough for ordinary people to live well, and the old and young also have something to rely on, and the court is burdened, which is the greatest benefit for those people.

Zhou Lian hurriedly said: "The slave understands, and he will pass on His Majesty's will later." ”

After speaking, he said cleverly:

"Your Majesty has given you such a favor, and they will be grateful."

"What do I want their gratitude to do?"

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty waved his hand, "This incident is so big that it almost shakes the country's foundation, I only hope that this matter can be calmed down as soon as possible, so as not to cause further turmoil in the army and cause other incidents." ”

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty is an emperor, and the emperor's heart is unpredictable, which is difficult to please, but it is not so difficult to please.

The previous incident in Jingnan broke his face, and coupled with the incident of the second prince and Zhangning Tun soldiers later, he has not been in a good mood.

What Su Ruan did today gave him a time to relax.

After this battle, at least the people will no longer talk about his discredited loyalty and deaths without arguing his innocence, and with the alleviation of Su Ruan and Jingnan's thanksgiving, even if someone talks about Jingnan's affairs again, no one will hold him wrong.

The depression in Emperor Ming Xuan's heart dissipated a little, and his face eased down.

Zhou Lian stood behind him and pinched his shoulders for him, and the strength of his hands was not light or heavy, which made his whole person relax a lot.

Once a person relaxes, many things that he had not thought of before come to mind.

"Zhou Lian."

"The minions are here."

"You say ......"

Emperor Ming Xuan closed his eyes slightly: "Is this incident too coincidental?" ”

Zhou Lian was stunned, his hands didn't stop, but he just said: "Your Majesty, do you think that Lord Qi still has a part in the matter of beating the drum?" ”

"Not this."

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty opened his eyes, stopped the movements in Zhou Lian's hands, and said lightly: "Su Ruan's matter of beating the Dengwen drum was originally made by Qi Wenfu, and I am not a fool, how can I still not understand this." ”

"I'm saying, isn't it too coincidental to Jingnan, Zhangning, and the Bo family and the second prince this time."

"First Chen Anning of the household department hanged himself, and then the Nan family was involved, and the old case of Jingnan has been completed, but the matter of the user department has been set off again."

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty looked cold:

"Speaking of which, Qi Wenfu is an extremely careful person, he and Xie Yuan are protecting Su Ruan together, secretly investigating this matter, and he will definitely be careful not to alarm people who should not be alarmed, but how can the news of the account book in his hand be known?"

"Bo Xi suddenly judged the Bo family, and Su Ruan's identity was suddenly exposed, and the matter of Jingnan broke out, one by one, I always felt that I, Su Ruan, and Qi Wenfu all seemed to have been calculated."

Zhou Lian was stunned, and his eyes widened in astonishment: "Your Majesty suspects that the previous things were all deliberately done by someone?" ”

Emperor Ming Xuan nodded, his eyes sinking.

"I sent someone to check on Su Ruan before, and found that those people in Jingnan had already entered the capital, but they were settled on the outskirts of the city and never moved, and Su Ruan has always stayed in the Xie family, except for going to Qi Wenfu twice on the way, she has never seen anyone else."

"Qi Wenfu told me before that the reason why he noticed Su Ruan's identity was because someone did something to Su Ruan's mother and daughter, almost killing Su Ruan, Su Ruan resisted angrily, and he found out about the Xie family."

"And at that time, he originally appeased Su Ruan and asked Su Ruan to agree to wait for him to find out, but then the Bo family suddenly involved her and pointed out the matter of the half of the account book."

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty looked up at Zhou Lian,

"Do you still remember what Su Ruan told you just now, she said that she was also forced by the situation at that time, so in order to save her life, she had to beat the Dengwen drum and take the people of Jingnan to sue the emperor."

"Why does she need to save her life, and what is the last resort?"

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty said in a deep voice:

"I always feel as if these things have been arranged."

"And Su Ruan and Qi Wenfu were both used as pawns."

Zhou Lian listened to Emperor Ming Xuan's words, his face changed instantly, and he couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty thinks that someone wants to use the old case of Jingnan to make trouble?" ”

Emperor Ming Xuan shook his head: "More than that." ”

Seeing that Zhou Lian was puzzled, Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty said:

"You think, Qi Wenfu originally appeased Su Ruan, obviously he never thought of letting Su Ruan take this step, it was I who suddenly ordered him to pass Su Ruan into the palace, so Su Ruan led people to beat the drums and kneel in front of the palace gate."

"If Su Ruan hadn't done this at that time, what would have been the consequences?"

Zhou Lian subconsciously said: "Lord Qi got the account book and concealed it and didn't report it, and Hou Ye Xie sheltered the wife and daughter of the criminal minister without authorization, and concealed the identity of Miss Su and the Chen family, if it was discovered afterwards, this would ...... This is all a crime of deception......"

Emperor Ming Xuan sneered: "Isn't it just a bully?" ”

"The crime of deceiving the king should be punished according to the law."

"If it weren't for Su Ruan and Qi Wenfu going out that day, they took people to beat the Dengwen drum with their lives, and knelt in front of the palace gate, and Qi Wenfu brought Su Ruan into the palace according to my instructions, I'm afraid that neither of them would have survived."

In order to prevent the Jingnan incident from breaking out and damaging the face of the royal family, under the anger at that time, it was very likely that he secretly disposed of Su Ruan, and Qi Wenfu, as a person who concealed it for Su Ruan, and even had evidence in hand, but had never told him, would definitely be regarded by him as a person with evil intentions.

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty knew his own temperament, and he trusted Qi Wenfu precisely because Qi Wenfu was selfless.

Once he knows that Qi Wenfu has two hearts for him, Qi Wenfu will definitely not end well, and the Xie family will be angry because of Xie Yuan.

The son of the Xie family is now the prince's companion, and the two are very close.

He may also wonder if this matter was done by the crown prince, in order to get rid of the Bo family and the second prince.

In addition, once he disposed of these people in anger at that time, as soon as Su Ruan died, the relatives of those soldiers in Jingnan would definitely be frightened, and if the old things in Jingnan were brought out again, they would kneel in front of the palace gate as before.

He, the emperor, is afraid that he will really be stinking for 10,000 years because of this matter.

At that time, not to mention the instability of the people, I am afraid that even the throne will be shaken.

Zhou Lian has followed Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty for many years, how can he not guess the meaning of Emperor Xuan's words.

He thought of the consequences, and only felt that the cold sweat instantly wet his back.

Zhou Lian's voice trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... This...... Who is it that dares to calculate Your Majesty like this? ”

Emperor Ming Xuan said coldly: "The Bo family naturally won't, otherwise they wouldn't be given up, and the second child is afraid that he will be stupid, and he will be used from beginning to end." ”

As for who it really is.

It depends on who has the greatest interest afterwards.
