"Presumably, you Jinyi Wei have been eyeing our Xu family for a long time, at least plotting against my ninth girl is not something that can be easily completed in a year or two."

"The old man said how she loved to talk about Buddhism with the daughter of the Wang family, Tan Yangzi."

"The old man thought that he was very cautious and would not be caught, but he didn't expect to answer the old saying, it is difficult to prevent thieves."

Xu Jie spoke again at this time.

But then, Xu Jie suddenly looked at Bai Yiqing: "But Ti Shuai, digging up the imperial tomb is really not the Xu family's doing!" ”

Bai Yiqing took out Xu Jie's handwritten letter: "This is the evidence provided by Mingzhen, the main culprit who dug up the tomb of the emperor, who confessed that it was you who instructed people to criticize Mr. Zhang, and instigated the people to retaliate against Mr. Zhang, and took out the handwritten letter that you instructed him. ”

"Mr. Xu, in black and white, why do you deny it."

"Zhang Ziwei!"

As soon as Bai Yiqing finished speaking, Xu Jie said a person's name and collapsed on the table: "You are so despicable!" You killed two birds with one stone! ”

Xu Jie was out of breath for a while because he guessed that Zhang Siwei was arranging for people to criticize Zhang Juzheng everywhere in the world in his name.

Xu Jie, who has been refined and self-interested all his life, did not expect that one day he would be overshadowed by someone who is also exquisite and self-interested.

Bai Yiqing and the other Jinyi guards also brought a doctor with them, because they were afraid that Xu Jie would not be able to stand the stimulation and would not be able to reach the capital alive.

Therefore, Bai Yiqing was busy calling the doctor to come up to treat Xu Jie.

After the doctor finished checking Xu Jie's pulse, he said to Bai Yiqing: "Fortunately, Mr. Xu is just in a hurry, just let him slow down." ”

Bai Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." ”

Xu Jie did breathe a little easier at this time, and then said with a sad smile to Bai Yiqing: "Ti Shuai don't worry, since things have come to this point, the old man will cooperate with you to go to Beijing to make a business, after all, the old man also has to tell His Majesty in person that the old man did not dig up the imperial tomb of Mr. Zhang's family, and the old man really didn't do that!" I don't have the courage to do it, and I won't be so ruthless! ”

"If the old gentleman is willing to cooperate, it's fine."

Bai Yiqing nodded and replied.

Then, Bai Yiqing waved his hand and said: "Detain everyone from the Xu family and bring them into Beijing according to the order!" ”

As he spoke, Bai Yiqing personally came over with a pair of shackles and asked Xu Jie: "Does Mr. Xu wear it now, or will he rest for a while?" ”

Xu Jiedao: "Just drive a prisoner car in." ”

"Okay!"

Bai Yiqing agreed.

So, after Xu Jie changed into prison clothes, he was helped into the prison car.

And Xu Ying and other Xu Jie's disciples and domestic slaves were all shackled.

On the second day, at the ferry, the people of Huating saw that the people of the Xu family were all wearing shackles and lost their souls on the official ship of the detention of them, and they no longer looked arrogant in the past.

Xu Jie himself seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and his beard was white.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I didn't expect that as soon as Jiangling went, the old man was going to be imprisoned, and the old man thought he was relieved when he died in Jiangling, but who knows, as the old man himself said before, only Jiangling is still willing to protect my Xu family, as soon as he leaves, it will be even worse, but my Xu family will be copied!" I am also an old lake, and I will think that Zhang Ziwei is better than Jiangling. ”

After saying this to himself, Xu Jie looked at the water waves outside and became stunned.

And the day before the Xu Jie clan was copied into Beijing, Zhu Yijun ushered in his first prince.

That's right.

Queen Du Weirou gave birth to Zhu Yijun's eldest son.

And mother and child are safe.

Zhu Yijun was naturally happy about this, and immediately sent an edict to the imperial secretary to the whole country, and the emperor's eldest son was born.

At the same time, Zhu Yijun's ten-day period of dropping out of the dynasty also ended, and he officially met with the ruling ministers in the Imperial Division.

"Your Majesty, the silver banknotes issued in Dongying, the Ministry of Industry has been ordered to make patterns, please Your Majesty to take a look."

And when Zhu Yijun met the ruling minister in the imperial secretary, the cabinet minister Wang Guoguang played the paper money he was responsible for at this time.

Zhu Yijun took it, looked at it, and asked, "Where is the anti-counterfeiting place?" ”

Wang Guoguang pointed it to Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "Let's point it out to Mr. as well." ”

Zhu Yijun looked to the left side as he spoke: "What does Mr. think?" ”

But what caught Zhu Yijun's eye was just an empty chair.

Zhang Siwei didn't dare to sit down directly, only waiting for Zhu Yijun to let him sit before he dared to sit over and sit in Zhang Juzheng's position.

Therefore, at this time, Zhu Yijun only saw an empty chair on his left side.

Zhu Yijun couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.

The ruling ministers were also stunned.

Zhu Yijun acted as if nothing had happened just now after a while, and asked Wang Guoguang to show the banknotes to the other ministers.

The other ministers did not object after reading it.

Zhu Yijun said: "Just release it according to this pattern." ”

The kingdom is bare and obedient.

At this time, Zhu Yijun suddenly asked Zhang Siwei and other ruling ministers: "What is the result of Mr.'s nickname and the posthumous sealing?" ”

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites has not yet decided on the result."

Zhang Siwei said at this time.

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Siwei and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Siwei got up and replied: "Your Majesty, Yuan Fu has just died, and the hundred officials are in mourning, and they are unwilling to admit that Yuan Fu is dead for a while, so they have delayed the matter of the posthumous matter, so that the result has not yet been discussed. ”

"Don't tell me this!"

Zhu Yijun suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Siwei and shouted.

Zhang Siwei looked stunned, and then hurriedly said, "Yes!" ”

Xu Xuemo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also got up and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites is talking about chasing Wenzhong, but the Ministry of Rites has not agreed yet, so it has been delayed." ”

Zhu Yijun raised his eyebrows: "I said that I would let you discuss it, but in fact, it is just a process, but in fact, do you still need to discuss the merits of Mr.'s auxiliary?" ”

Zhu Yijun looked at Xu Xuemo as he spoke: "You tell me, do you need to discuss?" ”

"Your Majesty's meaning, the minister understands, and the minister also thinks that it should be directly determined as Wenzheng, but other colleagues in the Ministry of Rites think that Wenzhong is more suitable."

Xu Xuemo said again: "But the minister thinks that what the holy oracle said is right, Yuanfu's merits and prestige don't need to be discussed anymore, it should be directly set as Wenzheng, and the minister will go directly to the ministry!" ”

"That's right."

"Sir asked me to reuse you before he died, and I found that it was not for nothing that Sir recommended you."

"However, in my opinion, it is not enough to chase the text, we have to change Jiangling County to Taiyue County, and with the order of Mr., the county will be exempted from taxes for another year, and within three years, every year in the college examination, the number of students in the county will be doubled, and Mr. himself will be posthumously named the Marquis of Jingzhou."

Only then did Zhu Yijun smile and speak.

Cold sweat soaked slightly on Xu Xuemo's head, and he only smiled for a while, and then said, "Your Majesty Shengming!" In the end, the minister was not as thoughtful as His Majesty thought, and he failed to fulfill the grace that Yuanfu deserved, he was really ashamed! ”

Zhang Siwei glanced at Xu Xuemo at this time, and then said to Zhu Yijun: "Your Majesty, because the emperor's eldest son was born, hundreds of officials have been on the congratulatory table one after another. However, the ministers of civil and military affairs did not know the intention of His Majesty to make great efforts to govern the country, but only knew that they urged trivial and urgent matters, and then caused excessive collection of taxes and government decrees, which did not conform to the intention of recuperating and recuperating the people, and there was an uproar inside and outside the court, and they lost the heart of supporting living beings. It is believed that the imperial court should take the opportunity of the birth of the eldest son of the Daqing Emperor to eliminate the troubles and harsh government, carry forward His Majesty's benevolence, so that the people of the four seas will appreciate His Majesty's holy virtue, so that the people's hearts will be reassured and the national vein will be nourished. ”

"This statement is quite hurtful to the current politics, so the minister did not dare to draft it, and now I only ask Your Majesty to cut it personally."

After Zhang Siwei played, he bowed down and held up the first book, and glanced at Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun didn't let Zhang Hong pick up this first book, but asked with a serious face: "There is no energy for the pursuit of the matter, with the birth of the emperor's eldest son, the Shangshu Dynasty has the energy to be harsh!" Why, listen to what he means, if the harsh government of the DPRK and the central government is not eliminated, can't my eldest son of the emperor grow up for the blessing of heaven? ”

"If you desecrate the way of heaven and threaten me like this, the auxiliary ministers dare to play?!"

Zhu Yijun questioned Zhang Siwei as he spoke.
