376 The Emperor's Code of Conduct
Well...... But this matter must have nothing to do with Dingguo Gong, it must be caused by the fourth elder of the Ning family who was drunk, and his body had already been hollowed out.
Cheng Ran thought with certainty.
"The facts of this case are already clear, and there are all human and material evidence, so he can't deny it." He looked at the old and strong Duke Dingguo and said, "This official will enter the palace early tomorrow morning and tell the emperor in detail about this case." Dingguo Gong and please go home first, and wait for the news. β
"Then there's Master Lao Cheng."
Ding Guogong turned around and left, thoughtful.
Ning Linfeng is a relative of the emperor, and this matter must go through the emperor, and even if Lord Cheng does not report it, Concubine Ning will definitely not sit idly by when she learns the news.
Therefore, Lord Cheng seems to dare not be arbitrary, but in fact, he is seizing the opportunity to take the matter to the emperor's ears as soon as possible.
I don't know if the emperor can soberly deal with this matter this time.
If he can't, he will be the government of the country, and he won't mind doing it himself.
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, Dr. Ji went to see Jing'er's injury.
"The swelling has been reduced by half, and if you apply medicine every day, it will definitely not be a big problem."
Doctor Ji's words made Xu, who had not closed his eyes all night and looked tired and grief, finally have a trace of comfort on his face.
As long as Jing'er doesn't have any other accidents.
"I slept very well at night, and I didn't have any convulsions, and when I woke up, I didn't cry out in pain except that I didn't want to leave." Xu asked, "I don't know if this is because of the pill given by Miss Zhang, and the effect has not faded?" β
Dr. Ji nodded.
"That's how it should be β it's the best way to heal the wound."
He naturally knew very well that this was exactly the benefit that the Breath Gu bringed.
After seven days, the wound should have also scabbed, and then the Gu should be taken out again, so that it will not cause damage to the cousin's body.
Thinking of his suspicions, Dr. Ji's eyes suddenly became unpredictable.
β¦β¦
The injury of the cousin of the Dingguo Mansion spread very quickly in Beijing.
Hearing that the Jing Ya has tried this case, the suspected culprit is the fourth master of the Ning family, and the scolding in the dark is endless.
The situation was so bad that it almost annihilated humanity. Therefore, even if no one is behind the scenes, it has caused an unusually large number of discussions among the people.
The current commander of the Jinyi Guard made Lu Yuan spread the news to the ears of Emperor Zhaofeng.
Thinking of what Cheng Ran played when he entered the palace this morning, Emperor Zhaofeng, who was meditating, sighed.
Don't worry.
Not long after the Great Master came out of the customs, he was busy practicing, so where did he have the time to take care of such a dilemma.
It's better to leave it to the prince.
Anyway, the crown prince has begun to work on his behalf in recent years...... Ahem, help him with political affairs.
Emperor Zhaofeng just wanted to give the order, but he felt that it was not feasible.
The prince hasn't really gained a foothold yet, and the concubine's small-bellied chicken intestines are ...... Forget it.
It would be annoying to have other troubles for him to clean up.
At this time, I just heard the waiter come to say: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is asking to see you outside the palace." β
Emperor Zhaofeng didn't know what he thought, his eyes moved, and he immediately said, "Xuan come in." β
As he spoke, he left the lotus platform where he was meditating, walked to the bookcase on the side, and picked up a book on it.
Hehe, don't ask him why he is so confident that he will definitely be able to impeach the Ning family-
There is no reason, just normal operation.
So, as soon as Concubine Ning entered the inner hall, she saw Emperor Zhaofeng shaking his head and sighing with a fold.
She looked at the empty lotus platform and couldn't help but smell something unusual.
At this hour, the emperor was not meditating, but watching the twists and turns......
This is comparable to the situation of an old sow going up a tree, which is really rare.
She stepped forward to salute, and was about to speak, but she heard Emperor Zhaofeng rush ahead and say, "Concubine Ai, have you heard of the prostitution brawl between the fourth elder of the Ning family?" β
Ning Guifei's eyelids jumped.
The emperor is not a ...... on weekdays Do you ignore such trivial things?
The fourth child has no daughter-in-law, and his life is not going well, so what's wrong with going to a brothel?
As for brawls, there are daily fights with flowers and wine, and there is nothing unusual about this, and there are no fatalities.
No matter how much she protects her family, she also knows that these words can only be said in her heart.
"Your Majesty, this matter is the fourth child's fault, and the concubine must be punished and admonished when she turns back."
"Punishment and admonition? Ai Concubine, do you know that according to the law of Dajing, this is going to be dismissed. Emperor Zhaofeng's tone couldn't hear joy and anger.
Concubine Ning frowned secretly.
What kind of wind is the emperor smoking today, and he actually has this leisure.
Is it because the pills are not enough, or is the lotus platform too ugly?
She could only say: "Your Majesty, the fourth child is also a first-time offender......
This nephew, because his background is not very glamorous, she does not like it very much.
But now that the entire Ning family needs help, she doesn't want to see the Ning family dismissed.
Emperor Zhaofeng raised his eyebrows.
First offense?
It's the first time I've been caught red-handed by an official.
He made a look of displeasure: "Also, has Concubine Ai heard about the injury of the cousin girl of the Dingguo Mansion?" β
"The concubine heard about it."
She came here for this matter, and the fourth child is still detained in the Beijing government, and I heard that she was injured.
When she was about to sell her pity, she heard Emperor Zhaofeng say: "Under the ironclad evidence, he still has to do something to Dingguo Gong - the Xu family is the founder of Dajing, and he has been loyal to martyrs for generations, even I have to respect three points." β
"The fourth child should be drunk and delirious."
Concubine Ning struggled to deal with the accusations that Emperor Zhaofeng kept throwing.
"Eating drunk and killing people is also worth your life." Emperor Zhaofeng sighed: "In addition, when he was on duty in the military department, he also left his post many times. Even when he was there, he dozed off a lot, and he was very tired at night in the land of fireworksβso, in my opinion, it was better to let him go home and lie down. β
"Your Majesty......" Concubine Ning was anxious.
She came to intercede with the emperor, why did she become the emperor pressing step by step?
"It's not that I don't help him, but now the court is already complaining about the Ning family, and I have nothing to do - especially the matter of the Dingguo Mansion, if I insist on covering it up, won't I hurt the hearts of the loyal ministers?"
The more Emperor Zhaofeng said, the more serious it became: "If this matter is just the fourth child of the Ning family alone, if he doesn't repent again, I'm afraid that the entire Ning family will be involved again." β
Ning Guifei was terrified when she heard this, and suddenly remembered her brother's death.
Back then, the elder brother was sacrificed to the sky, and the Ning family was implicated and attacked.
In such a gloomy day, she only came out of the Ning family little by little, and she still feels unable to breathe when she thinks about it.
It was also that incident that made her understand that the heart of the emperor could not always be biased towards her alone.
"Aifei, you don't have to worry about this matter, go back and rest."
Emperor Zhaofeng said as he continued to look through the folds.
Ning Guifei was upset by him, and wanted to knock his hand off - as if there was one more copy of the book, and the Ning family's crime would be added.
What did she not have to worry about, how could she not worry.
Concubine Ning Guifei left the Qianqing Palace with a heavy heart.
Emperor Zhaofeng let out a long sigh of relief.
Sure enough, this matter can't be delayed, and there's nothing wrong with making a move in advance.
Let's see if Concubine Ai can understand human speech this time.
treats these mundane things, he only wants one to get by, as long as he is not annoyed to death, and the concubine is not forced to die, the two can become immortals together.
On the same day, news from Changchun Palace was sent to Ning's house.
Mrs. Ning's hands trembled after seeing it.
