Chapter 350: The plaque has fallen
The right of the household is the Lang Mansion.
Zhu Qiming, the right attendant, did not go to court today, and took sick leave to recuperate at home.
But in fact, there is nothing wrong with his body, the reason why he did not go to the court is because the court has been turbulent recently, and there is an uneasiness that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.
Since Ling Mao, the former head of the household, was deposed by the emperor, he was faintly aware that the emperor was thinking about it and wanted to rectify the court.
But he still had luck in his heart, thinking that even if the emperor wanted to rectify the court, he would not continue to fight.
Unexpectedly, the emperor asked Jinyi Wei to copy the left servant mansion of the household department.
Since the emperor's decree, Zhu Qiming has become more and more uneasy.
Thinking of the things he did, Zhu Qiming didn't have the heart to go to the court at all, and stayed in the house under the pretext of recuperation. He had to think carefully about what he should do next, so as to avoid his Ling Mao and Teng Chong's footsteps.
Zhu Qiming stayed in the study for most of the day, but he scratched his head and didn't think of a way to get out of the way.
When he got up in the morning, he hadn't eaten a bite, but he didn't have any appetite.
With a deep sigh, Zhu Qiming picked up the teacup again.
But suddenly, a little guy burst into the study panting, and slammed open the hidden wooden door.
Zhu Qiming was in a depressed mood, and when he heard the movement, he turned his head and glared at the door.
However, before he could speak, the little guy had already said with a frightened expression, "Old, sir, the brocade guards have surrounded our mansion......"
Zhu Qiming's heart was like a drum, he stood up suddenly, and said to the little guy with a white face, "What did you say?" โ
The teacup in his hand flickered, and the entire cup of tea was almost shaken out.
Even the brocade robe on his body was wet, but he couldn't care about it at all at this time.
The little guy was about to cry, "Master, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, don't ......, Lord Ning has brought a lot of Jinyi Guards to surround our mansion." โ
Zhu Qiming sat down on the circle chair for a moment, his eyes blank, "How can you ...... so quickly?"
The eyebrows were burned, and Zhu Qiming didn't say what to do, and the little guy couldn't wait to roll up and run away.
It's just that before he could make a move, Zhu Qiming suddenly stood up again, walking briskly outside, his mind spinning sharply.
quickly went through the situation in the house, and felt that there was nothing wrong, Zhu Qiming made the panic mood stabilize a little.
But when he stepped out of the study and saw Ning Chuyi walking quickly towards this side with two teams of brocade guards from a distance, his heart hung high again.
Zhu Qiming didn't go any further, endured his uneasiness, and stood quietly in place. Waiting for Ning Chuyi to come close with people, he stiffened his face and forced himself to calm down, "Lord Ning, what do you mean by suddenly breaking into the official's mansion with so many people?" โ
Ning Chuyi didn't speak, and Gonggong Cao walked over from behind with the holy decree.
"Lord Zhu, the emperor has a decree."
Zhu Qiming's fists under his wide sleeves suddenly clenched.
With the mansion surrounded by Jinyi Guards, Zhu Qiming almost didn't need to think about it, he knew what this holy decree meant.
Gonggong Cao did not directly announce the decree, but waited for the Jinyi guard to gather all the people in the right servant's mansion to the main courtyard before launching the holy decree.
Ling Chu stood behind a group of brocade guards, and through the gap, he saw men and women kneeling on the ground in panic as if waiting for the judgment of death.
What a familiar scene.
How many times have she seen it since she crossed over?
Although she felt uncomfortable, she couldn't change anything.
This is not an era where one person does things and one person does things.
It is the ancient times when one person sinned and the whole family sat together, and even beheaded all over the house, punishing the nine clans, and the imperial power was supreme.
These people have enjoyed the glory and wealth brought by Zhu Qiming, and now that the incident has happened, they naturally have to bear the consequences with him.
It seems like only a moment.
But it seems like a long time.
When Gonggong Cao finished reading the last word, the entire Shilang Mansion up and down, all of them collapsed to the ground like ashes.
Zhu Qiming's whole heart is like falling into a cold pool.
But listening to the dazed and panicked cry of his grandson behind him, he suddenly came back to his senses.
first kowtowed heavily, then raised his head high, and shouted in the direction of the palace, "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged!" The minister is wronged!! The minister has been wronged! โ
Zhu Qiming's tone was full of grievances, elongated his tone, and shouted three injustices in a row in a high-pitched and powerful manner.
Gonggong Cao's brows furrowed high.
I just didn't wait for him to speak.
Zhu Qiming turned around suddenly, "Lord Ning, Gonggong Cao, the minister is wronged." This official has been an official for more than ten years, and he has never been greedy for a penny. The official's sleeves are breezy, and he is worthy of the emperor at the top and the people of Li at the bottom. This official has been wronged! โ
As if reminded by Zhu Qiming's words, his three daughters-in-law and his son's four concubines all shouted injustice.
Zhu Qiming's three sons were originally silent, but seeing that their wives and concubines were crying out for grievances, the three hesitated for a moment and followed suit.
Gonggong Cao lowered his eyes, looked at Zhu Qiming fixedly, and said after a while, "Lord Zhu, there is evidence of your corruption in Teng Chong's mansion, and the emperor has ordered Gong Shangshu to check the accounts."
Teng Chong has already confessed the evidence of the crime, and he left a bloody letter in prison, accusing you of reselling official food and salt. โ
Zhu Qiming's eyes darkened, and he subconsciously blurted out, "This can't be ......"
The holy decree is not child's play, since the emperor has made a decree, it is natural to carry it out.
Even if Zhu Qiming shouted injustice, Ning Chuyi still led someone to raid his mansion.
However, half an hour later, in addition to the head and face jewelry of several female dependents, and the marriage of the field shop, the brocade guard only copied out more than 35,000 taels of silver.
And this money, to be precise, is not all the money of the Right Servant Mansion.
Because the money belonging to the public is only more than 11,000 taels.
The remaining 24,000 taels are the silver money at the bottom of the box for the dowry of several female relatives in the house.
The right waiter's mansion is not only less silver.
Even the furnishings, furniture, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, etc., are all worthless things.
Looking at these things in the yard, Gonggong Cao's expression was full of surprise.
A thought rose in his mind, the right servant Lang's mansion is so poor, Zhu Qiming really deserves the words "two sleeves and a clean breeze".
Could it be that he was really wronged?
Zhu Qiming noticed Gonggong Cao's expression, and his hanging heart was relieved.
The three sons were secretly relieved.
As for those female dependents, the panic and panic just now are gone.
After all, they all know that their father-in-law Zhu Qiming is indeed a clean sleeve, and the right servant's mansion is so poor that they have to rely on their dowry to subsidize it in order to maintain their superficial decency.
The illusion of the superficial scenery has been exposed, although it is humiliating, it is better than being arrested in prison and beheaded.
Gonggong Cao's expression was tangled, and he turned his head to look at Ning Chuyi.
But I saw that there was no expression on his face.
At this moment, a brocade guard walked quickly towards this side.
When he got closer, he first glanced at Zhu Qiming, and then raised his hand to salute, "My lord, Gonggong Cao, the plaque of the right servant Lang's mansion has fallen." โ
Gonggong Cao looked a little puzzled.
They are raiding their homes, but they just dropped a plaque, and it is worth this brocade guard to come and tell them with great fanfare?
What Gonggong Cao didn't see was that Zhu Qiming's fist that had just been released was clenched together again.
