Chapter 287: Wang Xifeng is acquitted
At this moment, in the Shenjing Imperial Palace, Song Ci saw that Emperor Yongtai's face was unhappy, and he vaguely predicted the future, smiled stiffly, and lowered his hand and said:
"Your Majesty, do we really want to tolerate and connive at such wicked people?"
"Is it really just because she was born in a family of top and powerful people, that is, she wants to reverse black and white like this, and she is not to blame for the past?"
"In this way, where is the dignity of the Tianwei National Law established by this imperial court!"
Listening to Song Ci's words, Emperor Yongtai's face suddenly became angry, and Dai Quan, the minister of the Daming Palace on the side, always paid attention to Emperor Yongtai's reaction, and after seeing this, he directly stepped forward and scolded Song Ci, saying: "Bold Song Ci, is it possible that you are not doing things in the Pope?" ”
"Weichen doesn't dare!"
Song Ci didn't dare to accept this kind of words full of murderous intentions and traps, so he couldn't help but look at Emperor Yongtai and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is brave and loyal, heaven and earth can be learned, and I hope that Your Majesty will be fulfilled." ”
Emperor Yongtai looked coldly at Song Ci not far in front of him, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for the fact that you are a loyal minister who is loyal to the country, and what you do and say is not selfish, you are so rushed into me, I am afraid that you would have fallen to the ground long ago." ”
Song Ci stared at Emperor Yongtai in front of him, and Emperor Yongtai looked at Song Ci coldly, and the eyes of both of them were full of anger and helplessness.
Emperor Yongtai's anger came from the persecution of the Emperor Taishang, and now the ministers of the court outside the door of the imperial study are almost all the methods of the Emperor.
Now, the Emperor Taishang is intervening in this matter, and it seems that there are only a few years to live, and Emperor Yongtai does not dare to make a fuss with the Emperor Taishang at this critical moment, cheapen outsiders, and let those outsiders look at the jokes.
Then Emperor Yongtai had to mediate and make a decision in this matter.
The lesser of two evils, this Wang Xifeng also showed grace outside the law and escaped.
Don't blame Wang Xifeng of the Rongguo Mansion for saying such rebellious words, "The leper dog can't support the seed of the wall." If you tell him carefully, you will sue our family for rebellion, and it's okay. It's just a fuss about him, and everyone has no face. If it's too big, I'll be able to calm it down here. ”
Even though Wang Xifeng's words are suspected of boasting and fabricating, it can also be seen that the power of Rongguofu is monstrous, even if the two emperors face the monstrous power of Rongguofu, they have to plot slowly, take their time, and don't be in a hurry.
Song Ci's anger was to see that he tried hard to track down the murderer and investigate the case, but in the end he was still defeated by the imperial power, and he really responded to the sentence, "The royal law, the royal law, is the royal law." ”
At this moment, Song Ci walked out disheartened, and not long after he walked out, the ministers outside the hall hurriedly stepped forward, looked at Song Ci in front of him, and said, "Lord Song, what did the emperor say?" ”
"Lord Song, if you do this, you will offend those royal relatives and relatives ruthlessly, I am afraid that it will be difficult to end well in this future!"
"Lord Song, this is an official in the court, who is as dead-eyed as Ling?"
"Lord Song........"
Everyone was clamoring, but they were not talking about Wang Xifeng's culpability, but instead accused Song Ci of being too pedantic and too square, so that he lost his sleek sophistication and would end up with no place to bury.
Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be an official in this clear stream and a clean official!
Because the civil and military forces of this Manchu Dynasty are all rotten wood officials, and the world is all muddy and evil, you are the only one who is sober, and you want to overthrow the entire court, stand on the opposite side of everyone, and hold high a banner called the law of the country and the king, you want to sweep away these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and return the world to a peaceful and prosperous world, which is really a difficult dead end and a dead end.
When Song Ci heard this, he sneered and said, "Ministers, aren't you taking advantage of the filial piety of the people of the world to maintain decency and food and clothing with exacting taxes and miscellaneous taxes?" Now that you have taken the money of the court and the people, you should be loyal to the country and ask for the people's life, how can you say such unconscionable words! ”
"This ......"
Everyone looked at each other, knowing that what Song Ci said was not half a lie, but this living person was difficult in the world, and everyone in the world was suffering, even if he entered the court as an official, it was also difficult to be a person.
As a result, everyone stopped persuading Song Ci, and they all stayed away from Song Ci and isolated Song Ci.
On the contrary, after everyone dispersed away, Jia Yun came to Song Ci and said, "Lord Song, you have offended the Wang family this time, I am afraid that they will not let you go." If you want to save your life, you have to resign and return to your hometown. ”
"Yes, thank you Lord Yun for reminding me!"
Song Ci knew very well that he had offended many ministers this time, as well as those lawless imperial relatives, and now just such a person committed a crime, and such a big case was involved, if Ming'er committed it again, what should he do.
He really wants to be a good official, a clean official for the country and the people.
It's a pity that there is no one to support it, and it is difficult to do things.
Regarding Wang Xifeng's case, even Emperor Yongtai was helpless about it, and he had to open up to her and be merciful outside the law.
What can he do with this little Jingzhao Mansion Yin?
To change the world, it is not possible to rely on the power of one person alone.
Even if Song Ci only shouted twice, he couldn't wake up those people who were deliberately pretending to be asleep.
They are deliberately pretending to be asleep, so how can you wake them up from their pretense of sleep by shouting twice?
"That's it, that's it."
Song Ci let out a long sigh and said, "I don't deserve this official!" ”
After that, Song Ci accepted Jia Yun's suggestion, retreated bravely, and chose to give up saving this turbid world.
It's really incompetent, helpless!
If Song Ci continues to be an official, he will not be able to pass the threshold of conscience in his heart.
For Song Ci and others, it was a kind of torture.
Song Ci then decided, "I, Song Ci, will quit!" ”
Suddenly, a little fire and smoke rose from the imperial study, and I saw the civil and military ministers outside hurriedly shouting, "Oh no, it's on fire, come and put out the fire." ”
Unexpectedly, the door was opened at this moment, and Emperor Yongtai walked out of it, and everyone hurriedly knelt down and saluted, looked up at Emperor Yongtai, and waited to speak.
"Don't panic, this is the fire caused by me accidentally knocking over the candlestick and burning the physical evidence, and now that the fire has been extinguished, there is no need to panic."
Emperor Yongtai's words made everyone stunned, "Can you still do this?" It seems that this matter should also be able to come to an end. ”
Song Ci's heart became even colder, and he thought in his heart:
"This physical evidence has been burned by the emperor's fire, what about the human evidence? I'm afraid it's not going to be at the moment! ”
The crowd bowed in unison:
"The emperor is wise."
"The emperor is wise."
"The emperor is wise."
......
At this moment, in the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, those people who were guarded and protected were also killed one by one by the people arranged by Wang Ziteng.
When the prison door was opened, the people inside were horrified. Read the book
But for a while, there was no movement.
After a long time, the body was carried out, and it was as if it had never been seen since.
When Song Ci came back from the palace and asked about it, his subordinates all replied: "The human certificates have been released, and they have gone home, scattered in all directions, and it is difficult to know the specific whereabouts." ”
The case is closed!
After all, it was the imperial power that prevailed over the royal law, and Bai was cold and had a clean official heart.
