Chapter 243: Justifying Bai Zhi's Name
When the emperor heard this, his face was gloomy.
Indeed, he once said such things.
Salt production is the work of saving the country.
The emperor got the salt-making recipe from Chen Wanshan that year, and after the experiment was successful, he realized that his merits would be left in the history books of the Dazhang Dynasty.
In order to show his appreciation, he has attached great importance to Chen Wanshan over the years, so that Chen Wanshan, who was a distant relative of the Chen family and was not valued by the Chen family, has been firmly in the position of prime minister over the years.
Therefore, the branch of the Chen family, where Chen Wanshan is located, was stained with light, and the chicken and dog ascended to heaven!
He thought he was not kind to Chen Wanshan, until later, he heard some rumors about Chen Wanshan and Concubine Shu.
The emperor originally wanted to treat those young spring events as jokes, rumors about others targeting and merit Chen Wanshan.
But when he saw that his second son didn't look like himself, but looked a little like Chen Wanshan, he knew that he couldn't deceive himself!
It's just that suspicion is suspicion, and the emperor has no evidence.
In addition, Chen Wanshan's salt-making skills are like saving the country, if he attacks Chen Wanshan for no reason, he will only leave a handle for the ministers.
The Chen family will not give up.
The emperor has been enduring it.
Until today.
When Gu Qinghuan stood up, confronted Chen Wanshan, and pointed at Si Xiuyuan, the emperor knew that some answers were about to surface.
When he saw the feet of the two, the emperor had no joy in his heart, only ......
Hate!
No man can tolerate wearing a green hat.
What's more, he is still the highest man in the world!
Looking at Chen Wanshan, who was desperately begging for mercy below, the emperor only hated that he was blinded by merit back then, and made too heavy a promise to Chen Wanshan!
At this moment, the emperor only felt that he could not get off the stage.
Killing Chen Wanshan will become a joke and even be criticized by the group of pedantic and rigid historians.
If you don't kill Chen Wanshan, he is still a joke, a big joke!
From now on, forever and ever, anyone who hears his name will laugh so hard that they can't stand up straight, right?
The emperor grabbed the armrest of the chair, and the green tendons burst out, as if he was about to crush the wooden armrest!
At this moment, a quiet and indifferent voice sounded-
"There was another story I forgot to tell just now, because it has nothing to do with the life experience of the courtier, so I put it aside for the time being."
This voice drew everyone's attention from Chen Wanshan to that side.
It's Gu Qinghuan.
Gu Qinghuan walked to the hall from the side, suddenly knelt down towards the emperor, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the courtiers want to correct the name of one of the courtiers' sisters!" Take back the honor that she was taken from her by others, and take it back from the hands of the traitor! ”
When the words fell, most of the people in the hall were confused, only some of them showed different colors.
Chen Wanshan was even more shocked, realizing something, he shouted: "Your Majesty! Spare your life! You said, you-"
He wanted to bring the topic back to himself, if he let Gu Qinghuan speak, it would be too late!
"Gagged him!"
However, the emperor shouted coldly, and the palace guards did not hesitate to shut Chen Wanshan's mouth.
In order to prevent accidents, they also blocked Si Xiuyuan's mouth.
As for Zhiyue, who was on the same side as them, he was also taken down, and he had no power to resist.
"Your sister?"
Blocking Chen Wanshan's mouth, the emperor only felt that his ears were much clearer, he stared at Gu Qinghuan tightly, and his intuition told him that what Gu Qinghuan was going to say next would solve the current dilemma for him, "I remember, you are the only daughter in your family." ”
"Yes."
Gu Qinghuan raised his head and said solemnly: "In the courtier's family, there is indeed only one daughter of the courtier, and the sister that the courtier's daughter said is a widow she met when she was a child during the winter disaster relief, and the courtier's relationship with the widow is very good, so she is called her sister." ”
Winter Relief?
The emperor faintly had the impression that the Marquis of Yong'an had taken a lot of effort to make this pearl in his hand, not only giving porridge to those who could not eat enough, but also providing hot baths and clean clothes.
This matter was criticized by some courtiers in the court at that time, thinking that the Yong'an Hou Mansion was extravagant and wasteful, but they were all blocked by the Yong'an Hou on the grounds that "the little girl likes it".
The emperor only has a son, and no princess, he wants a little daughter all these years, and he has no chance, but he loves the little girl very much, and after hearing about it, he did not criticize the Yong'an Hou Mansion, but let the Yong'an Hou Mansion go.
"That's what happened."
The emperor was aware of this, and then asked, "You said earlier that you want to correct the widow's name?" ”
"Yes."
Gu Qinghuan said: "My sister's name is 'Bai Zhi', Sister Bai Zhi was born in Hanzhou, and her father is Ning Xi, presumably the emperor has heard Mr. Ning's name." ”
The emperor said, "The rumored miracle doctor? ”
After Ning Xi arrived in the imperial capital, he not only treated Hongluan and Yanjin, but also went to the homes of some powerful people, and easily solved the incurable diseases that even the imperial doctors in the palace could not solve, and was called a miracle doctor.
Therefore, the emperor also left some impressions on Ning Xi.
"Go on." The emperor was curious about what Gu Qinghuan wanted to be for Ning Xi's daughter.
"Sister Bai Zhi is very smart, what ordinary people can't do, she can easily find a solution."
Gu Qinghuan said: "Does the emperor remember the ice-making recipe offered by the Yong'an Marquis Mansion seven years ago? That recipe was developed by Sister Bai Zhi. ”
Without waiting for the emperor's reaction, Gu Qinghuan said again: "Does the emperor remember the fireworks that Li Xiaohu of the Li family presented more than six years ago, which can show words in the air?" That recipe was started by Sister Bai Zhi, and Li Xiaohu had the inspiration, and followed the method that Sister Bai Zhi said, and finally made the amazing fireworks. ”
"What?"
When the emperor heard these two things, he was shocked.
Not only the emperor was surprised, but most of the people present were also extremely surprised, and the ministers exchanged heads and whispered about each other.
"But I haven't heard the Li family mention the existence of Angelica dahurica." The Emperor said.
"Whether this matter is true or not, the emperor can summon Li Xiaohu to ask later."
Gu Qinghuan lowered his eyes and said, "And the reason why the Li family didn't mention Bai Zhi's merits was because they felt that a dead person didn't need such merits. ”
"Dead people?" The emperor was shocked again, such a talented woman was ......
He's dead?
"Yes, dead man."
Gu Qinghuan pursed her lips, "Sister Bai Zhi died more than six years ago and was killed. ”
The last four words, Gu Qinghuan said extremely slowly, she turned her head and looked at someone behind her.
Everyone followed her gaze and looked around, and saw Chen Wanshan, who was gagged by the guards and couldn't move.
At this moment, Chen Wanshan's face is like ashes.
Seeing this, whether it is the minister or the emperor, I vaguely understand something, could it be-
"The person who killed Sister Bai Zhi is none other than Prime Minister Chen Cheng, Chen Wanshan!"
Gu Qinghuan raised her voice suddenly, everyone was frightened, their hearts were tightened, and their attention was pulled by Gu Qinghuan's words: "More than six years ago, Sister Bai Zhi developed a salt-making recipe, and she rarely communicates with outsiders, she doesn't know the importance of this recipe to the Dazhang Dynasty, and underestimates the high risk after high profits, so she was targeted and killed!" ”
"In the end, Sister Bai Zhi was killed by someone who coveted the salt-making recipe, and the murderer robbed her recipe and took her fruits, claiming to be the owner of the salt-making recipe and having the merit of saving the country!"
Gu Qinghuan's voice was raised and echoed throughout the hall, causing everyone's ears to buzz.
She leaned over, kowtowed to the emperor, and said loudly: "The courtiers ask the emperor to correct Sister Bai Zhi's name and return Sister Bai Zhi's exploits that Sister Bai Zhi had been robbed of six years ago!" Let the murderer who did not hesitate to kill Bai Zhi's sister in order to seize the merits be ambushed and handed over to the laws of the Dazhang Dynasty to deal with! ”
