Chapter 109: Maybe It's Because of You
"Upper Dynasty ......"
This voice came from the Xuan Palace, shouting loudly all the way, continuing to the Zichen Palace, and from there to the Nanchen Gate.
The guards at the palace gate got the news and opened the palace gate.
Baiguan rushed in, went to Nanchen Gate, and immediately saw bloody corpses all over the ground.
These old ministers have been fighting with each other in the Golden Palace all their lives, but they have never entered the real battlefield, so a few old and weak people were frightened on the spot, and they fell down as soon as their feet were weak.
The other officials who accompanied them hurriedly supported them, and while comforting them, they interrogated each other about what was going on inside.
The guards who protected them to enter, none of them answered, and they only stepped on blood in turn to send them into the Nanchen Gate.
The steps of Nanchen Gate were all covered with blood, and there were countless corpses on them.
When the ministers entered, some of the attendants were urgently pulling the corpses open to make room for them to bleed.
As the attendants pulled away the corpses, the ministers stood at the foot of the steps and watched, trembling and puzzled.
Ling Tiancheng was already sitting high on the top of the Golden Palace.
His clothes were clean, and there was not even a trace of blood on his feet, but when the ministers saw him, they always felt that he was glowing red.
Xu is the reason why they see too much blood, their eyes are already broken, the emperor is obviously wearing a yellow dragon robe, and since it is stained with blood, it is also the blood of the rebels.
Ling Tiancheng looked around at everyone and spoke: "Last night, the rebels entered the palace and were taken down by the Ouchi guards in one fell swoop. ”
His voice was steady, and his eyes were deep and quiet, and he paused at this point, leaving time for the ministers.
They began to speculate, who did the mess, and what is happening now?
Ling Tiancheng didn't say a word, like countless early dynasties in the past, he sat quietly under the Golden Palace, watching the ministers talk and listening to what they said.
From those few words, analyze what is useful and what is not.
Finally, a minister stepped forward and bowed his head and said, "The emperor is frightened, and the ministers are not in a good position, so please ask the emperor to surrender." ”
When the other ministers heard this, they all stopped talking and knelt down together to plead guilty.
Ling Tiancheng didn't let them stand up, he also got up from the dragon chair, walked two steps on the golden hall, and then turned his head to look at them and said, "You are indeed guilty. ”
The hearts of the ministers were cold, and they did not dare to speak anymore.
The rebels entered the palace, Zhuang Changyuan and Luo Ke did not appear in the court, and these ministers are not stupid, can they not think of them?
These two people, no matter who they are, are their usual colleagues, and many of them have a good relationship with them and stand on the same line.
If the emperor wants to investigate their affairs, then everyone is not so clean.
They are also afraid.
Ling Tiancheng looked arrogant and cold, and he didn't have much contact with people, but in fact, he was very shrewd, and he saw everything in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.
This sentence that they are guilty has already disturbed the psychology of the ministers.
Ling Tiancheng squinted his eyes for a moment, and slowly spoke: "I ascended the throne in the sixth year of the Sheng Dynasty, and it has been more than two years now, all the ministers, ask yourself, who in this court has told me the truth?" ”
No, even sycophants are fake.
They were swayed by Zhuang Changyuan and Luo Ke, and all their words were rhythmic, trying to lead Ling Tiancheng to a result they wanted.
Although Ling Tiancheng finally saw through their conspiracy, this could only prove his shrewdness, but it could not be said that the ministers had told the truth.
Settling accounts after the autumn is a terrible thing.
At this moment, their backers have fallen, and the one standing high above is their real master.
In fact, Ling Tiancheng has always been their master, but these people have not recognized the facts, so they have today.
They lowered their heads, barely daring to listen to what he was saying.
But after waiting for a while, there was no sound above the Golden Palace.
Ling Tiancheng stood and looked at the ministers kneeling together, until they raised their heads, and then spoke again: "Get up." ”
Who dares to rise up?
"Get up, there is a word I want to tell you, from this day onwards, it is time for you to really speak, and I hope that you will be able to speak freely, and you will no longer have to be affected by other things."
It was quiet.
No one replied, Ling Tiancheng retreated and walked towards the inner hall.
The ministers were stunned for a long time in Nanchen Gate, and then turned around and left the palace, no one was discussing in the Golden Palace, and hurriedly went back to sort out their own affairs.
Those implications with Zhuang Xiang and Lord Luo can be eliminated as soon as possible, and the relationship that should be severed will be broken quickly, taking advantage of the emperor's current non-accountability, give them a chance to be a new person, and hurry up if they can be whitewashed.
Within a day, Nanchenmen's body was also cleaned up.
A cart was dragged out, through the streets of the capital, dragged to the outside of the capital, and then built into a wooden frame, and under the eyes of the whole city, a fire burned to ashes.
Overnight, Zhuang Xiangye fell, the famous Zhuang Xiangfu was seized, and all the property and items in it were transported into the treasury.
Zhuang Changyuan's family servants, men were in the army, and women were slaves, scattered everywhere.
But several of his sons ran away, and there was no trace, and no one knew where they had gone.
Zhuang Siyan also went to the banker's house for a turn, walked through each of his courtyards, and then looked very carefully at the place where Ling Tiancheng lived in the past, as well as the residence of the original owner Zhuang Siyan.
It's just that time has passed, and she still hasn't found what she can use.
After coming out, she went to Wen Qing's house.
Wen Qing's attitude towards her changed, but it didn't reach the point of enthusiasm, she just invited her to sit without rejection, and then asked nonchalantly: "Shouldn't you count the gold in the palace at this time?" Why did you get to me? ”
This time, Zhuang Siyan made a lot of money, except for Zhuang Changyuan's case, which won 1,000 taels of silver.
Later, she also took advantage of the makeup technique that Wen Qing looked down on and Ling Tiancheng strongly opposed, and changed the commander of the Great Inner Chamberlain, and the people who used it were the ones who had followed them to Jincheng.
After some rectification, all the leaders of the Ouchi guards were replaced by their own people.
Even the person who connected with Zhuang Changyuan was fake, so the signal to enter the palace, as well as all the information that Zhuang Changyuan received, were traps.
In addition to these, this woman also carefully arranged the palace.
Where it should be loose, where it should be tight, where people will control it, and where to reach at most, she has calculated it from the beginning.
Wen Qing thought at the time, fortunately, she has amnesia now, and she has no relationship with her own father, if not, with her current scheming, to help Zhuang Changyuan, then the Dasheng Dynasty is really a few days away.
Of course, Ling Tiancheng would not erase such a feat, he rewarded Zhuang Siyan with a lot of things.
As a result, the little woman waved her hand: "Don't give me all those useless rouge gouaches, I want gold, a lot of gold." ”
So Ling Tiancheng could only convert all the things he wanted to reward her into gold, and finally carried two large boxes into her hall.
The guard carrying the gold was so tired that she foamed at the mouth, and gasped for a long time before asking her, "Niangniang, where do you put all this gold?" ”
"Let's put it here for now, and then I'll find a place to store it when I'm counted."
When Ling Tiancheng talked to Wen Qing about this, he looked helpless, even he couldn't understand what was wrong with this little woman.
That's why Wen Qing asked this question when she saw Zhuang Siyan at this time.
Zhuang Siyan didn't take his teasing seriously at all, and said briskly: "Count slowly, what's the hurry?" I'm here to ask you, do you know where those stupid sons of the dealer went? ”
Wen Qing: "......"
"Silly son? Then you are the elder brother and younger brother, I said Concubine Wanniang, can you behave like a normal person? ”
Zhuang Siyan looked at him sideways: "You say I'm not a normal person?" ”
Wen Qing stroked his forehead, is this not clear?
As Zhuang Changyuan's daughter, she designed to frame her father, even if it was for the sake of justice, it was still a little chilling to hear.
Now I have to inquire about the whereabouts of my brother and brother, and even Wen Qing can't bear it.
In Zhuang Siyan's world, it seems that there are only interests and no feelings, so what will it look like if there is a rift between her and Ling Tiancheng one day?
Judging from the current situation, it seems that as long as someone gives her enough money, Zhuang Siyan will work hard for her.
Regarding this matter, what made Wen Qing even more depressed was Ling Tiancheng's attitude.
He said, "She likes gold and silver, and I will give her gold and silver as long as she pleases." ”
Accustomed to it, a deep boudoir woman who doesn't know anything, is used to being used by Ling Tiancheng as a person who regards money as his life and doesn't recognize his six relatives.
After Zhuang Changyuan's incident happened, it has been three or four days now, and she hasn't even gone to see her father in prison.
Wen Qing asked: "If you are normal, can you tell me why you didn't go to see Zhuang Changyuan?" Why do you want to inquire about his son's whereabouts now? ”
Zhuang Siyan paused the teacup on the table, looked at his eyes, and replied extremely seriously: "What do you think Old Man Zhuang married his daughter to the palace for?" Do you know anything about her past? ”
Wen Qing frowned: "Even if he is wrong, it is also your father." ”
"Well, it means that because we are related by blood, I want to be on his side and oppose Ling Tiancheng?"
Wen Qing was stunned.
Why did the topic suddenly become like this? He didn't let this woman go against Ling Tiancheng? He just reminded her not to be too cold-blooded?
Zhuang Siyan got up: "You have seen the evidence of Old Man Zhuang's treason, don't say anything about it, what do you think of the emperor's treatment of him now?" ”
"Does that need to be said? Benevolence and righteousness. ”
"Yes, then why do you think the emperor did this?"
Wen Qing still understands this: "For two reasons, he grew up in Zhuangxiang's Mansion and remembered some old favors, which is really incomparable with you; Second, maybe it's because of you! ”
Zhuang Siyan raised his eyebrows and walked out without saying a word.
When he arrived in the courtyard, he shouted inside: "You'd better figure it out, don't let the dealer's people run away to the outside with anything." ”
Wen Qing's heart was shocked, and when he chased it out, Zhuang Siyan's shadow was gone.
He stood in the courtyard for a while, but still sent a message to the people outside, asking them to find the dealer's person as soon as possible.
"Be sure to intercept them before they go to the Outlands, and bring them back, and ask for all the corpses."
Qinglin asked puzzledly: "Son, Zhuang Changyuan is already in prison, what can his unsuccessful sons do?" ”
Wen Qing was stunned: "He lost too easily, it's a little wrong." ”
