Chapter 64 Calculation

"Do you really want to kill Mr. Fang?" Zhu Yunwen hesitated.

In front of him was the conviction document of Fang Xiaoru presented by Ding Xian.

As long as Zhu Yunwen hooks the royal pen, Fang Xiaoru's case will be over. And what Ding Xian proposed for Fang Xiaoru was a capital crime.

Fang Xiaoru died, and there were many negative effects.

No, Fang Xiaoru doesn't have to die, Fang Xiaoru is in prison, there are many negative effects, and even the Empress Dowager Lu, who doesn't care much about the affairs of the imperial court, sent people to intercede. After all, Fang Xiaoru has always had a good relationship with the crown prince, and he also met with the crown princess at that time.

Ding Xian knows all this.

But Ding Xian didn't care.

What he cares about is sitting in the position of first assistant. In Fang Xiaoru's case, Fang Xiaoru was the main offender, and everyone else was an accomplice. The sin of the principal affects the sin of the accomplice.

Fang Xiaoru is not dead, and many people behind him cannot be cleansed or convicted. Therefore, if Fang Xiaoru clapps his hands and goes home safely, Fang Xiaoru's power in the imperial court can organize a faction.

It is very bad for Ding Xian.

Ding Xian felt that as long as he could sit firmly in this position, there would be a way to save the situation in the future. Even if the situation cannot be reversed in the future. He who can keep his power. As for what the Ming court has to lose, what does it matter to me.

It's a big deal to go to the master-apprentice relationship with He Xi and sell it at a good price.

However, if you want to sell at a good price, the premise is to sit firmly in the position of the first assistant.

Therefore, killing Fang Xiaoru is a great thing for Ding Xian personally. For Da Ming, I don't know.

Ding Xian naturally wouldn't tell Zhu Yunwen about this. He said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't want to kill Fang Gong either. The minister and Fang Gong also have a friendship. According to the minister's thoughts, it is not impossible to pardon Fang Gong. It's just that in this way, it is impossible for the imperial court to make any big moves within this year. After all, many things in the imperial court need to be carefully sorted out. The old minister must also find a way to arrange Fang Gong's people one by one, and I am afraid that doing things at this time will cause a lot of disputes."

Zhu Yunwen frowned slightly and did not speak.

Zhu Yunwen has been the emperor for a year or two, and now he has a great consciousness, so he will not listen to the minister's words. Although he felt that what Ding Xian said was probably the truth, it was not enough for him to kill Fang Xiaoru.

He and Fang Xiaoru have been in master-apprentice relationship for so many years, and if they don't deal with it, they won't deal with it, and now they are disgusted with it. But he remembered that at the beginning, after his father left, most of the few people supported Zhu Xiongying, and only Fang Xiaoru and Ding Xian supported him.

Without Fang Xiaoru, he would not be where he is today.

Of course, the love between master and apprentice is not enough to tie Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen himself is a very ruthless person. But Zhu Yunwen was a little concerned about the outside comments, he was worried that if he killed Fang Xiaoru, people outside would say something unpleasant.

Crossing a river and demolishing bridges and the like.

This will affect Zhu Yunwen's reputation.

Seeing this, Ding Xian secretly said in his heart, "Fortunately, I was prepared." He said, "Your Majesty, there is one thing that I don't know if Your Majesty knows or not."

Zhu Yunwen said, "What's the matter?"

Ding Xian said, "There have been rumors outside that the Queen Mother interceded for Fang Xiaoru."

Zhu Yunwen said, "This is indeed the case. What's the big deal?"

Ding Xian said, "There are some bad rumors outside, and the minister doesn't dare to say it."

"What don't you dare to say?" Zhu Yunwen just said this, and his face suddenly turned blue.

Zhu Yunwen is very smart. He immediately stitched it out.

Bad rumors, dare not say. Nothing more than damage to royal face. mentioned two parties, Fang Xiaoru and the Queen Mother.

Zhu Yunwen immediately understood what was going on?

Between men and women, it is nothing more than a matter of three ways.

Fang Xiaoru is an old minister of the Qiandi and has been haunting the East Palace for a long time. And the queen mother was born as a scholar and doctor, and she has a good impression of scholars, and she has taken care of each other's filial piety several times. I just sent someone over to plead for mercy.

There is a long coincidences on the timeline, and the emperor and queen mother are also in the East Palace, and it seems that they have a good relationship.

In this way, what kind of gossip cannot be spoken.

This made Zhu Yunwen extremely angry.

If Fang Xiaoru is really saved according to the queen mother's intentions, I don't know what to say outside.

Of course, Zhu Yunwen knew that her mother had nothing to do with Fang Xiaoru. The reason is simple, the palace is strictly forbidden. Because there was a disturbance of the court during the Hongwu period. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, carried out a big purge below, and set very strict rules.

If the problem is to be found out long ago. Moreover, civil officials are foreign ministers in the end, and there are regional restrictions on entering the palace. In fact, if you really want to defile the court, it is more likely that the guards, and the children of the powerful, they are relatives or on duty, it is possible. There is also a precedent.

But even if Fang Xiaoru is impossible, it can't stop the mouth of the world.

I have to say that since ancient times, the common people have liked the rumors of the next three roads, and they can simply apply for intangible cultural heritage. For example, in the Han Dynasty, family dialects such as Xijing Spring and Autumn were actually a collection of rumors.

Zhu Yunwen didn't have anything. Just dipped a pen in cinnabar. Tick it off in the case file. ended Fang Xiaoru's life.

Ding Xian didn't say anything, just took the case file and retreated.

He was very happy in his heart, but he didn't show it at all.

This incident was naturally planned by Ding Xian. Not even today, when Ding Xian was ready to replace Fang Xiaoru as the first assistant, he had already planned it. After all, he gave Fang Xiaoru a lot of charges.

Great disrespect, slander the king, violation of the training, to His Majesty's unfilial piety, and so on.

These are relatively empty charges.

There are also some charges of conniving at the corruption of subordinates and lax royal subordinates. But it is still a bit far-fetched to ask Zhu Yunwen to kill Fang Xiaoru.

Fang Xiaoru has no sin in private morality at all, he can be described as a complete person, with only one wife by his side. I don't have many family members around. It's not too frugal, but it's not extravagant.

I can't grasp the handle from private morality.

Ding Xian really wanted to make some problems, such as Fang Xiaoru himself, or what his family had done to commit capital crimes. Just move out and get justice. You don't have to think about it so much.

Many big names were executed in this way.

The punishment is not the crime.

Ding Xian could only find a way to make Fang Xiaoru a capital crime. Although there is such a crime of disrespect, it is okay to kill Fang Xiaoru. But Zhu Yunwen didn't think that if Fang Xiaoru deserved to die, this matter would not pass.

Ding Xian had no choice but to make this decision.

The secret of this strategy lies in.

Fang Xiaoru could not prove that this thing did not exist.

It is impossible to give Fang Xiaoru a chance to prove it. At least Zhu Yunwen won't. For the sake of his own dignity, this matter will definitely be sealed.

It will even investigate clearly.

And rumors are such things that are impossible to investigate clearly. What's more, Ding Xian had already started to lay out this matter a year ago. For so long, it has been updated several versions. After all, the wisdom of working people is infinite, and it is the same in this kind of thing...

It is completely different from the wind released by Ding Xian at the beginning.

And at the foot of Nanjing City, there are a lot of various rumors about the court, if you really want to talk about it, it is simply everything, Ding Xian even suspects that even if he doesn't let go of such rumors, sooner or later there will be such rumors.

So, this is also not clear.

Moreover, Ding Xian was also sure that no one would report such words to Zhu Yunwen. After all, any intelligence officer, that is, Jinyiwei, has to think about one thing before reporting, if the report goes up and the above asks you to find out, what should you do?

Since ancient times, there have been almost no precedents for clear investigation of rumor cases, and if they are not clear, the original report was meritorious, but it has become no merit. was even squeezed out from top to bottom, such a thing is never more than less.

Everyone knows, but the people above don't know.

This is also why many cases, big political events, like to use the next three ways

Trouble. Because it's so easy to use. Today, it was naturally Ding Xian who made a move.

However, Ding Xian couldn't kill Fang Xiaoru immediately, he still had to wait.

What are you waiting for? Wait for Zhu Yunwen to regret it.

This is also to clear up his own involvement, after all, sometimes, there is no need for evidence, especially for Zhu Yunwen. Now that Zhu Yunwen has written down emotionally, he will inevitably have a time when his emotions will fall.
