Chapter 655: The Tragic Death of the Tanuki for the Prince (14)
Qu Jie's operation can be said to have dealt a great blow to Zixiao Zhenren and them, and also made them realize the gap between each other and realize that they are really powerless.
After half a burnt incense, they first went to Taikangdi to plead guilty, and then they all said that they were incompetent and took their leave.
Not only left the palace, but also left the capital.
Even Zixiao Zhenren directly resigned.
Regardless of whether the other party is the Yuan Infant Demon King, or what special means or secret methods they have, it is undoubtedly certain that they are not opponents, and the most important thing is that the other party dares to use these means for the sake of a concubine, which undoubtedly means that this means is not difficult for the cat demon.
Even if you can't use it anytime, anywhere.
It will not be used only once a year and a half.
Instead of waiting for the Queen Mother to die, they still have no way to be angry, so it's better to leave early!
And Tai Kangdi can actually guess some situations through the change of their attitude, although he wants to be angry and scolding people, etc., and he is not willing to let them go, and even has the idea of killing people to vent his anger, but he knows better that these Taoist monks, even if they are not cat demon opponents, are not mortals.
If you really want to kill, although you should be able to use the army, you can offend them to death, who can guarantee that there is no ancestor similar to the cat demon behind them.
Therefore, in the end, he could only let those monks leave and chase back Zixiao Zhenren who had resigned from the seal.
He also stressed again and again that he would never be embarrassed.
Then Zixiao Zhencai reluctantly came back, and it was the Taoist ceremony that met him, not the face-to-face ceremony.
However, Tai Kandi obviously can't take care of it now:
"Zixiao Zhenren, do you see if it is possible for us to make peace with that cat demon now, whatever it wants, as long as it is not excessive, I can give it anything, and even build a temple for those of the same clan who died for it.
As long as it can spare my mother."
Although Tai Kandi also wanted to destroy the cat demon immediately, and even crush the other party's bones and ashes, the key is not that he doesn't have this ability, and he still understands the truth that the person who knows the times is Junjie, and if you can't win the war between countries, you have to make peace, and the cat demon should be about the same.
In the case of paying enough benefits.
There is still hope for peace talks.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for saying that if that cat demon had any ideas for peace, it would have made a request a long time ago.
What's more, if the cat demon didn't lie, it was her biological parents, brothers, sisters and friends who died, which was almost equivalent to the great feud of destroying the Nine Clans.
You might as well put yourself in your shoes, if it were you.
Would you rather make peace or take revenge to the end?"
Perhaps he resigned, Zixiao Zhenren not only relaxed a little, but also spoke less politely and tactfully.
At this moment, Kandi had nothing to say.
He really couldn't think of why the cat demon wanted to make peace.
At this moment, someone suddenly rushed into the main hall and shouted: "Your Majesty, something has happened, and almost countless large curtains suddenly appeared in the sky, each curtain has a radius of several hundred meters, and the deceased Lao Chengengong and others have appeared on that curtain.
The curtain is so illusory that it can't be hit!"
Hearing this, of course, Tai Kandi hurriedly walked out of the main hall to see what was going on outside, and Zixiao Zhenren followed curiously.
There is no doubt that Qu Jie did this.
She placed several holographic projectors in the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and used those projectors to project thousands of large screens into the capital, which played the memories she extracted from the souls of the dead Chengen Gong and Concubine Shu, and to be more precise, the memories of the two of them when they were evil.
Although the two of them are dead, and even not only their bodies have been destroyed, but their souls have also been destroyed, but there are not many people who really know their evil deeds, and Qu Jie doesn't want to go back and only record that they were killed by cat demons in the history books.
It just so happened that she was able to extract their soul memories again.
The evidence is almost conclusive.
That's why she specially planned such a one
, facing the whole capital, the two criminal memories were publicly executed.
It not only contains the murder process of Qu Jie's cats, the causes and consequences, but also the related matters of other victims, more than 300,000 acres of land in the Chengen Mansion did not fall from the sky, and before the Empress Dowager Ci'en entered the palace, the Chengen Mansion was a fortune teller.
Those lands can still be passed down from ancestors, but can only be taken and annexed in recent decades.
Direct or indirect life lawsuits involved.
There are not a few.
As the projection continues to play, the people of the capital can be said to be itching teeth that they all hate, and some of the victims or the relatives and family members of the victims are even shouting that God has eyes, and the sun is clear, or they call Mao Qingtian.
And Tai Kangdi can only be said to know about these situations, but he is not so informed, knowing that he knows that Cheng Engong is not so clean, and he also knows that he has some *** behaviors, and he is not so aware because he does not know that Cheng Engong is so excessive and has harmed so many families.
And even at this time, he was even more angry with the cat demon who exposed all this, rather than Cheng Engong who had done so much evil and harmed so many ordinary people.
At the same time, he even wanted Zixiao real people to destroy the projection.
However, Zixiao Zhenren didn't even try, so he said that he couldn't do anything, and then brushed his sleeves and left, leaving Tai Kangdi alone to stand in place and be impotent and furious.
As for stopping the spread of information, keep it from the people.
Hehe, he couldn't even shut up all the eunuchs and maids in the palace and not spread the news, not to mention that all the people in the entire capital shut up, the projection in the sky has not yet finished the crimes of Chengen Gong and Shufei, and there have been countless scholars and people who have surrounded Cheng'en Mansion and Dali Temple, throwing rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves or something into Cheng'en Mansion, and asking Dali Temple to redress their grievances.
For a time, it can be said that the capital was boiling, and public opinion was in an uproar.
The imperial historians also wrote letters of impeachment.
Tai Kangdi did not want to do anything to his mother's family when his mother was on the verge of death, and he was unwilling to face hundreds of officials, so in the end he could only simply call himself sick and not go to court, and he did not go to court or watch the twists and turns, in a vain attempt to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
The officials of Dali Temple have no choice, after all, without the emperor's will, they have no right to break into the house of the prince and arrest the whole family, so they can only stalemate.
Well, because the cultivators have basically withdrawn.
No one helped Cheng Engong's three sons and the queen mother's life, and the imperial doctors were helpless about it, so in less than three days, Cheng Engong's three sons died one after another, and their souls were also taken away by Qu Jie, and the key information was extracted and put on the people of the capital.
In a few more days, the Queen Mother also died.
Emperor Taikang was in great pain and ordered the eunuch to ring the death knell, go to court again, and announce the entry of the national mourning period.
At this time, Qu Jie was quite timely, and before the end of this court meeting, he extracted key information from the soul of the Empress Dowager Ci'en and put it on again.
In order to make it easier for them to watch, Qu Jie even put several screens directly above the court and political hall where they held the court meeting, as well as on the left and right, to ensure that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could clearly see the content of the screen.
And what is played in it is, of course, how many evils the Empress Dowager Ci'en has done in the harem over the years, how many eunuchs and palace maids have been killed with a cane, how to try to poison the other heirs of the first emperor when the first emperor was there, protect his son from ascending the throne, and how many grandsons and granddaughters have been harmed.
The hundred officials who watched it were dumbfounded.
The relatives of the former queen's father, the death of the harem and the loss of their children were dumbfounded.
