Chapter 1217: Beheading

Although the emperor woke up, he couldn't move at all, so naturally he couldn't deal with the government, this time, the emperor almost didn't hesitate, and directly ordered the prince to supervise the state council.

This order was given by the emperor himself under the witness of a cadre of important ministers, so no one dared to question the crown prince.

The crown prince took over the important task of supervising the country, and while he was busy dealing with political affairs, he secretly ordered Lu Zheng to closely monitor Ji Ye's movements.

However, the crown prince is not as nervous as before.

Ji Ye is good friends with the Wang family, but this time the Wang family committed a heinous crime, even the gods can't save them, unless Ji Ye wants to rebel with the Wang family, it should be easy not to make a move.

......

Imperial Edict of the Inner Court.

Wang Depu, the head of the Wang family, who had been severely interrogated, was lying dying on the thatch in prison.

His eldest grandson, Wang Wenzheng, had just been taken away, and Wang Depu knew what his grandson would go through, but he couldn't care about it at all.

He was too old, and a strict trial almost killed him.

He couldn't remember what he answered in the end, but he only had a vague impression that it didn't seem to be something favorable to the Wang family.

Wang Depu slumped on the grass, thinking of the glory of the past, and couldn't help but cry.

How did it get to this point?

He really didn't understand.

Obviously, as long as King Rui successfully ascends the throne, the Wang family will be able to be honored, obviously he has planned it, but how can it suddenly be like this?

Wang Depu still doesn't understand, how did he become the mastermind of the murder of the emperor?

How dare he do that!

He had never had such a mind!

What's in it for their family?

As soon as the emperor dies, if there is no secret edict left, then the crown prince can ascend the throne logically, how can he help the prince?

But their family was suddenly arrested, or they were caught in this edict, what does this mean?

It means that the emperor must know about this!

Isn't my daughter being favored?

Doesn't the emperor love his daughter like a treasure?

But how could he turn around so quickly?

It is said that the heavenly family is ruthless, but Wang Depu didn't expect that it would be such a ruthless method.

thinks that as an old minister of the two dynasties and the respect of the country, he will end up like this when he is old......

It's sad, ridiculous, pathetic, pitiful......

......

This night, An Sheng couldn't return home, but because the queen was there, she let her meet Lu Zheng, which can be regarded as the heart of An Lu's family.

In the middle of the night, the results of the interrogation about the Wang family's plot to kill the emperor were sent to the Linhua Palace.

The prince took it himself.

Except for one Wang Wenzheng, who gritted his teeth and did not admit his guilt, the rest of the people all confessed, including Wang Depu.

In fact, as long as there is Wang Depu's confession, it is enough.

As the head of the Wang family, he can represent the entire Wang family, so it doesn't matter if Wang Wenzheng admits guilt or not.

This result is not without the reason that the prince secretly explained.

Under the torture of the edict, few people can bear it, not to mention, most of the Wang family are pampered nobles, where can they stop the torture, so they all quickly confessed.

Only Wang Wenzheng, but he is really a man, after the punishment of Yishui'er, he still gritted his teeth and did not admit his guilt.

In fact, as far as the prince's own thoughts are concerned, he believes that the Wang family is innocent in the matter of poisoning, but despite this, he can't let go of the Wang family.

With such a good opportunity to eradicate the Wang family, he must not be soft-hearted.

Besides, even if the Wang family really didn't poison the emperor, it is an indisputable fact to confuse the emperor with that kind of unclean thing.

How can anyone who has rolled in the circle of right and wrong in this court really innocent?

The prince first went to see the Queen Mother with a confession.

Because I was afraid of irritating the emperor.

The Queen Mother was naturally furious when she saw it, and bluntly said that such a wolf ambition should be killed.

However, after all, such a big matter still has to be notified to the emperor, and what to do depends on the emperor's intentions.

The queen mother was not at ease, so she asked the prince to help herself go to see the emperor in person.

"Your father wants to be soft-hearted this time, and the mourning family will make this ruthless move for him!" The queen mother's face was firm, and the prince was a little relieved when he saw it.

With the Queen Mother here, and the emperor is angry, I don't think anything will go wrong anymore.

When the emperor heard the prince's return, he was also very angry, even if he asked someone to punish the nine clans of the Wang family.

However, the Queen Mother, the Empress and the Crown Prince and other important ministers have spoken out and advised the emperor to think twice.

The queen mother said: "The emperor is like this now, it is not appropriate to make too many killings, the Wang family makes mistakes, and its nine clans may not know it, so angry may be criticized by the people of the world, and the emperor's reputation is unfavorable. ”

The Queen Mother's words were reasonable, and everyone echoed them.

When the emperor heard the queen mother say this, his anger also disappeared slightly, and he felt sorry for the queen mother and the queen, and saw that the queen mother was also for his good, so he agreed.

The results of the Wang family's punishment came out.

All the men were beheaded, and the female dependents were sent to the army, charged with intent to kill the king.

Concubine Rong gave a pot of wine and allowed her to cut herself.

This is still based on her serving the emperor, and she gave birth to King Rui, so she left her a whole corpse, otherwise, it would be difficult to solve the hatred in the emperor's heart if she was cut with a thousand knives.

People are so complicated, how deep they loved at the beginning, how true they hate now.

The queen once again saw the emperor's cold nature, and the last bit of warmth in her heart disappeared, and for the rest of her life, only the superficial affection remained.

......

The result of the Wang family's punishment was announced by the court the next morning.

It wasn't until this decree was read out that the courtiers knew what crime the Wang family had committed.

Murdering the emperor is a big crime for the Nine Clans!

All of a sudden, the courtiers who relied on the Wang family in the past were all in danger, for fear that they would be the next to die, and now let alone oppose the proposal of the prince's faction of officials, they didn't even dare to have more atmosphere, and they were as honest as quails.

This is the result that the prince wants.

As soon as the Wang family loses power, these monkeys will not be able to become a climate.

It's just that the prince is still worried about Ji Ye in his heart.

This person, he couldn't see it clearly.

From the time the Wang family was caught to the time he was sentenced to beheading, Ji Ye did not show the slightest abnormality, and he still looked as usual.

But it was precisely because of this that the prince felt uneasy.

He couldn't say why he was so wary of Ji Ye, but he believed in his feelings, so he secretly told Lu Zheng again, telling him to be optimistic about Ji Ye.

Lu Zheng received the prince's secret order, and he has been closely monitoring Ji Ye's every move.

The Wang family was scheduled to be executed two days later, and the people in Beijing also heard the rumors, knowing that the military department Shangshu had fallen off the horse, and the whole family was going to be beheaded for public display.

Two days later, the northwest wind swept in, and the day of the Wang family's execution arrived.
