Chapter 567: Magnanimity

People like Wu Jie seem to be politicians, but in fact, their political consciousness is very low, and at most they know how to meet powerful people, and then they do things carefully.

His re-perception of Zhu Hao can be regarded as an afterthought, but it is obviously too late.

Even if he really felt that Zhu Hao had harmed Daming, in order to save the lives of himself and his family, as well as the lives of those colleagues, he had to write down a confession involving Yang Tinghe and threatening Wuzong to return to Beijing with his illness and submit it to Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao walked out of the prison with his confession.

Luo An and Lu Song followed.

Luo An said: "This person knows too many secrets, and he shouldn't keep them." ”

When Lu Song heard this, he was obviously a little surprised, in the past, Luo An belonged to the kind of person who worked diligently, why did he suddenly have such a heavy killing intent?

Zhu Hao put away the confession, handed it over to Zhu Si that night, and said: "For all forces, he is already an outcast, even if he is publicized to the public, no one will believe him." Besides, after this eucalyptus is over, he will be directly transferred to the garrison, and if he dares to talk nonsense, it will not be too late to move him again. ”

Lu Song said: "It's better to threaten him with a humble position, so that he doesn't dare to talk nonsense." ”

Luo An sighed: "Actually, it stands to reason that even if he says something, outsiders may not believe it, but they are afraid of ...... The publicity of such matters aroused the suspicion of Yang Gelao, and it would be very unfavorable to Mr. Zhu at that time. ”

"It's fine."

Zhu Hao waved his hand and said with a smile, "When you enter the court to do things, if you are afraid of wolves and tigers, what else will you do?" I haven't done anything to bring disaster to the country and the people, even if Yang Ge Lao believes it? Spare him his life, but don't let him meet with his family, as long as he wants his family to be safe, he knows how to keep his mouth shut. ”

……

……

Zhu Hao really didn't need to kill Wu Jie.

Since he dared to reveal his identity in front of Wu Jie, and he also dared to show that he was acting on behalf of the emperor Zhu Pi, he was not afraid of Wu Jie to say it, the key is that someone must believe it when he says it.

As Zhu Hao's analysis of Zhu Si before.

Wu Jie is already a traitor in the eyes of Yang Tinghe and the faction, no matter what he does, it will be useless, on the contrary, he does not dare to let Yang Tinghe know that the person who is secretly reporting is him, and the result of the publicity is that his family is in trouble, Yang Tinghe may not believe it, why should he go to it?

Taking a step back, even if Wu Jie really spread the news to Yang Tinghe, it depends on whether Yang Tinghe believes it or not.

Who would believe the words of a traitor?

Or, are your words too incredible?

When Zhu Hao handed over Wu Jie's confession to Zhu Si, Zhu Si read it, and his face was full of mocking smiles: "No wonder my imperial brother suddenly changed his temperament and returned to the capital in a hurry. Speaking of which, Yang Ge Lao instructed me like this, which can be regarded as indirectly helping me. ”

Zhu Hao said: "Everything is providential. ”

Zhu Si put down the confession and looked very confident: "I also think that this is all the will of heaven, Zhu Hao, you are so good at pinching and calculating, you can calculate that I will be the emperor a few years in advance, you are the one who can spy on the will of heaven, you can calculate for me, how many years of life do I have?" ”

After becoming an emperor, he immediately began to care about his lifespan.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I can't calculate this kind of providence." ”

Zhu Si stuck out his tongue: "I don't think you can't count, don't you want to say it to me?" Are you afraid that I will be burdened when I know it? Don't be afraid, just tell me, okay? ”

"Not really."

Zhu Hao sighed with emotion, "Heaven's will involves the number of fate, there will be many changes, and many things the day after tomorrow will also affect a person's fate, and Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, the more it is so, the more difficult it is to calculate." ”

Zhu Hao's bluff was quite effective.

Zhu Si seemed to believe it, and nodded again and again: "Then if you know that I am in danger, or when someone wants to threaten me, you must tell me as soon as possible, so that I can be prepared." ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Hao nodded in agreement.

……

……

Zhu Hao didn't instill any atheistic thoughts into Zhu Si.

In these years, talking about atheism itself is not reliable, even the imperial court has Qin Tianjian to calculate the astrology, celestial machines, etc., and also use the changes of the stars or the appearance of meteors, comets and other astronomical anomalies to show whether there are disasters, and even record them in the official history, and the result of telling the emperor about atheism is that the emperor treats you as a fool.

Keep up with the heavens as enemies, thinking that they are more powerful than God, who dares to reuse this kind of person?

The so-called Zi Bu Silent Monster Confusion only talks about demons and monsters, and does not involve the number of heavenly fate.

And Zhu Hao didn't say it, there was another very important reason, because Zhu Hao knew that in the future, Zhu Si's trust in Taoism or these gods and gods would come one day.

If he was given the reputation of "Heavenly Master", so that Zhu Si felt that he really had the ability in this area, then Zhu Hao would not be cheated by a group of alchemists with ulterior motives.

It is impossible for a monarch to maintain a harmonious relationship forever.

When there was no political enemy in the court, Zhu Hao was the emperor's political enemy at that time, and the fall of Yan Song's father and son in history was not precisely because he was calculated by Fang Shi in a sentence or two?

Only if you are also good at this thing, and can say things that the emperor feels more trusted than the Fang Shi, can the Emperor not trust those charlatans.

With Zhu Hao's understanding of history, it is still very easy to explain some "heavenly opportunities" at the right time, which is much more reliable than the proverbs of the warlocks, and then the emperor will know who is the real "master of the world".

……

……

The next day, in court.

In the middle of the discussion, Zhu Si stated that he would be lenient with Chen Jing, Zheng Hong, Wu Jie and other imperial doctors.

This was something that Yang Tinghe did not expect.

The investigation of the Tai Hospital seems to be related to the impeachment in the matter, but Yang Tinghe knew that this was Zhu Si's intention to make a fuss and wanted to prevent someone from harming each other pharmacologically, but now Zhu Si is magnanimous, indicating that he will not pursue the capital crimes of several ministers who collude inside and outside, but give them a chance to mend their ways......

This is in stark contrast to the severity of the Cabinet's condemnation of capital crimes.

"Your Majesty, Admiral Eunuch Chen Jing has a great deal to do with the death of the former emperor, and he should be strictly interrogated to set the record straight, and please think twice."

In such matters, people from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have come out to show that they want to be strict with the law.

It's not that they don't have to put this person to death, but they feel that the new emperor's lenient treatment of the imperial doctor who killed the former emperor after he ascended the throne will arouse suspicion about whether this matter is secretly instructed by the Xingwang Mansion behind his back, and even if he wants to pardon it, it should not be now.

Zhu Sidao: "If you just rely on some things to catch the wind and shadows, you will have to kill so many imperial doctors, dare to ask who will dare to enter the Tai Hospital in the future?" Who else would dare to diagnose me? ”

In this way, Zhu Si stood on the moral high ground, which made it difficult for the ministers present to accept.

"Okay, this will be treated as a special amnesty for them, and a few convicts will be renegotiated by the Criminal Department at their discretion, and they will be distinguished by their crimes, and if they are not too serious, they will be reduced to serve the people."

Zhu Sidao, "After the Criminal Department plays again, I will decide as appropriate." So be it. ”

……

……

Yang Tinghe returned to the cabinet.

Without waiting for Jiang Mian to come over and talk to Yang Tinghe, Fei Hong on the other side came over first and said: "It is reported that Zhongde is terminally ill, I am afraid that it will be the matter of the past two days." ”

"Oh?"

Yang Tinghe frowned.

Zhongde is Yuan Zonggao, in history, Yuan Zonggao died on the seventh day of September in the sixteenth year of Zhengde, but now it is September 12, that is to say, Yuan Zonggao has at least a few days longer because of Zhu Hao's influence.

But because he died of a disease, which is a chronic disease of old age, Zhu Hao can not do much.

Yuan Zonggao entered the court for a few days, he didn't make any achievements, and he didn't shine when he was in the palace, but after he arrived at the court, he was almost invisible, even if he was a cabinet scholar, his sense of existence was a little lower, and even Yang Tinghe felt that Yuan Zonggao died without even doing something, was it too fast?

"Got it."

Jiang Mian replied for Yang Tinghe.

Even if Yuan Zonggao really died, it was impossible for the cabinet to go to mourn in person, and the imperial court would send officials to the funeral to do so, and the ministers of the court and the central government would be loyal to their duties.

Waiting for Fei Hong to leave, Jiang Mian said: "Your Majesty suddenly pardoned the people in the Tai Hospital, I don't know why?" ”

Yang Tinghe shook his head: "Perhaps, as Your Majesty said, I don't want to cause too many twists and turns, so I will calm things down." ”

To publicize the cause of Emperor Zhengde's death, it is obviously not something that the new emperor should respect, no matter how he died, now that the throne is returned to me, it is a gift from God, just send those people out of the court so that they can no longer endanger me.

"I always feel like something is wrong."

Jiang Mian said suddenly.

Yang Tinghe can also feel it.

Since the matter was deliberately provoked by Zhu Si, then there should be a purpose, it should not be Zhu Si who took the initiative to exonerate the people involved in the eucalyptus, if the final result is like this, then why did the emperor hold him accountable from the beginning?

Just to drive this group of doctors out of the hospital? Or kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, so that other imperial doctors dare not make a fuss about the emperor's prescription?

Moreover, Zhu Si has always used the affairs of the court to govern civil officials before, but it is obvious that this time the emperor is very abnormal, which is equivalent to giving face to civil officials and not making more killings.

The civil officials haven't pleaded yet, and the matter has just passed?

……

……

Yuan Zonggao is indeed terminally ill.

Tang Yin and Jiang Lun went to visit one after another, and when they came back, they told Zhu Hao that their death was a matter of the past few days.

Fortunately, in recent months, the main people of the Yuan family have already arrived in Beijing, and before Yuan Zonggao died, he could be regarded as reuniting with his family, even if he closed his eyes, he would not be separated from his relatives and die in a foreign land.

"When you are dying, what else can you do?" After Tang Yin came back, he asked Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao shook his head.

Zhu Hao is still grateful to Yuan Zonggao, after all, Yuan Zonggao has made great efforts in entering the palace.

But later, Yuan Zonggao was repeatedly suppressed because of the alliance between Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, and even formed an antagonistic relationship in the palace, even if people are dying now, all the past should not be investigated, but Zhu Hao still has no ability to save Yuan Zonggao's life.
