Chapter 485: Xu Jie, you can bear it next!
Seeing those colleagues who were so excited that they had even begun to cry bitterly, Hu Yingjia's heart was also very uncomfortable, but at the moment, after all, the situation is stronger than people, and it is useless to continue to stay here.
After all, their purpose from beginning to end was only to persuade the emperor to retract his fate, and if they angered His Majesty because of this, it would be worth the loss!
Therefore, after hesitating for a long time, Hu Yingjia stood up and comforted everyone.
"Don't worry, we're not going to give up on this, but to go back and think about it for the long haul!"
After Hu Yingjia finished speaking, he took the lead to leave, and when those officials saw this situation, after observing the surrounding situation, they couldn't help but clench their fists, lower their heads, follow Hu Yingjia's footsteps, and turn to leave.
What's more, he wanted to take the corpse with him, but after seeing the unkind eyes of the forbidden soldiers around him, he had to give up this idea.
Among those who left, there were still a few people who looked back from time to time, and the corpse that had fallen in a pool of blood, cut off from life, with a face full of reluctance.
Correspondingly, in their hearts, the hatred for Xu Jie, the second assistant of the cabinet, has also reached a higher level.
Xu Jie looked at the backs of those departing officials, and couldn't help but snort coldly, his face full of disdain.
At this moment, I saw that the previous commander of the forbidden army came to Xu Jie's face, his face full of flattery.
"Elder Xu Ge, what do you think we should do next?"
After the commander of the forbidden army finished speaking, he also used his mouth to snuggle the corpse lying in a pool of blood next to him, and the meaning of it was self-evident.
When Xu Jie heard this, he quickly withdrew his gaze from the corpse and commanded rather casually.
"What should be done, just what it is, you just need to report the matter to the original local area, and if there is anything, the elder of this cabinet should bear it!"
"Yes, Elder Xu Ge!"
After receiving Xu Jie's specific instructions, the face of the forbidden army commander was full of gratitude, and he immediately said respectfully.
Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Xu Jie immediately prepared to leave, and just a few steps away, Xu Jie seemed to suddenly think of something, paused suddenly, came back to his senses, and commanded the commander of the forbidden army.
"By the way, tell those people to wash the floor a few more times, otherwise, the smell of blood will be too strong!"
"Yes, Elder Xu Ge!"
After Xu Jie's steps left, everyone present followed Xu Jie's pace one after another and walked in the direction of the sedan chair parked.
Yan Song looked at Xu Jie, who was walking in front, sneered, and said to himself.
"Hmph, Xu Jie, you can bear it next!"
……
At this moment, Lu Fang's pace could be described as quite hurried, he ignored the eunuchs and palace maids on both sides of the road who saluted him respectfully, and hurriedly marched in the direction where the Qianqing Palace was located.
Not long ago, everything that happened near the Huangji Gate, after being reported level by level, finally Lu Fang learned the ins and outs of the matter.
"Damn, not to mention the private use of weapons in the Forbidden City, there were even human lives!"
Thinking like this, Lu Fang couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Soon, Lü Fang marched to the Qianqing Palace, and after being informed by the eunuchs, Lü Fang successfully entered the Qianqing Palace and met Jiajing.
Looking at the figure sitting on the dragon chair, Lu Fang immediately reined in his thoughts, knelt on the ground with a 'plop', and said respectfully.
"Slave and maid, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
When Jiajing heard this, he looked Lu Fang up and down before he spoke.
"Well, get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After receiving Jiajing's answer, Lu Fang slowly got up from the ground, his face full of reverence.
Just as Lu Fang was still thinking about how to tell Jiajing about this, Jiajing seemed to see what Lu Fang was thinking, and asked.
"Lu Fang, you came to me this time, do you have something to report?"
When Lu Fang heard this, he immediately suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, took out an envelope that had been prepared from his sleeve, and reported it respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the envelope in the hands of the slave and maid recorded the ins and outs of the whole thing, not long ago, when those officials marched to the Huangji Gate, they were stopped by Xu Ge Lao, and immediately ......"
After listening to Lu Fang's narration, Jiajing also had a preliminary judgment on the general appearance of the matter, and immediately turned his gaze to Lu Fang and commanded.
"Well, in that case, let's show it to me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After that, I saw Lu Fang come to Jiajing and hand over the envelope in his hand to Jiajing.
Jiajing opened the envelope and began to browse the contents on it, which were exactly the same as what Lu Fang had described before, but in some subtle aspects, they were more detailed.
Therefore, Jiajing quickly finished browsing the contents, and at this moment, Lu Fang's uneasy voice sounded in Jiajing's ears: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, how do you intend to deal with this matter? ”
When Jiajing heard this, he put down the letter in his hand, turned his gaze to Lu Fang, chuckled, and immediately spoke.
"Isn't it clearly written on this, the official named Wang Xinyi took the initiative to bump into it, since this is the case, I can't complain about others, and when the time comes, the court will give him a good name and send him away!"
When Jiajing said this, he changed his words and continued to add: "However, the forbidden army used his sword in the Forbidden City without authorization, and he had to be punished, so he will be punished with twenty rods, and he will be imprisoned for ten days and half a month as punishment!" ”
After listening to Jiajing's instructions, Lu Fang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, in his opinion, this is a great favor!
It can also be seen from this incident that the emperor is not very interested in those officials, because under normal circumstances, all cases involving human life are not trivial.
And now, His Majesty is just lightly letting the forbidden army who committed the crime be punished for twenty years, and then imprisoned for a period of time, His Majesty's attitude towards those officials can be seen.
After listening to Jiajing's instructions, Lu Fang immediately responded in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
After this, I saw Lu Fang carefully observe the look on Jiajing's face, and then spoke.
"Your Majesty, the whole thing, Xu Ge Lao has made a great contribution to it, you see ......"
When Jiajing heard this, he bowed slightly to Lu Fang, and then commanded.
"Well, I know, you can go and withdraw all the Jinyi guards near Xu Jie's mansion now!"
"In addition, send someone to tell Xu Jie, and say that I have something to find him!"
When Lu Fang heard this, his expression immediately turned grim, and he replied in a deep voice.
"Obey, Your Majesty, the slave will do it!"
After Lu Fang finished speaking, he didn't stop in the Qianqing Palace, and immediately turned around and left.
……
When Xu Jie took a sedan chair and returned to his mansion in the capital, the housekeeper immediately greeted him.
Seeing this, Xu Jie couldn't help frowning, and after getting off the sedan chair, he immediately asked the housekeeper.
"How's it going?"
The housekeeper knew that Xu Jie was asking himself about the brocade guards who were in charge of monitoring outside the mansion.
After organizing the language, the butler replied cautiously.
"Old ...... Master, it's still the same, you say, will Your Majesty's side ......?"
It's just that before the housekeeper's words were finished, he was coldly interrupted by Xu Jie: "What stupid things are you talking about!" ”
After this, I saw that Xu Jie's face was full of determination, and he said slowly.
"Wait, someone will be here soon." (End of chapter)
