Chapter 177: A Murder Trick, Punishment for the Heart

The residence of the head of the cabinet.

Ye Xianggao, Wang Qi, and Sun Chengzong are all there.

Ye Xianggao was stunned for a long time after reading the evidence brought by Wang Qi, obviously shocked.

"Lang Guogong, if these things are handed over, I am afraid that it will not only be the prince who is believed, but also those civil and military officials in Nanjing City, and many of them will drop their black yarn hats!"

"Don't think about suppressing this matter, such a disaster, if it wasn't for Lang Guogong discovering in advance, nearly 10,000 catties of gunpowder, if it explodes in the capital, the consequences will not only overturn half of Beijing, hundreds of people will die in this disaster, how can it be a prince? Can you be the prince of Daming for me? ”

Sun Chengzong was extremely angry and slapped the table, making the tea cups on the table tremble directly.

"However, if you report it to the imperial court, where will you put it in the saint? Xin Wang Ye is the younger brother of the Holy Lord, is it possible that in the end of this matter, do you want the Holy Lord to raise the butcher knife to the Lord Xin? The imperial court has just belittled a large number of officials, and now the disaster is causing Xiao Wall, what do the people of the world think? Ye Xianggao obviously takes a lot of care into account, and as the first assistant of the cabinet, Ye Xianggao's first consideration is the stability of the entire court, rather than reshuffling the cards in the violently turbulent officialdom.

Ye Xianggao's words made Sun Chengzong not know how to answer for a while.

As the emperor, Sun Chengzong sighed silently: "Looking at it this way, I believe that the prince is far away."

After a long time, Ye Xianggao and Sun Chengzong turned their heads to look at Wang Qi.

"Lang Guogong, you found out about this matter, and you found out, what do you think?" Ye Xianggao finally wanted to hear Wang Qi's thoughts.

From the moment Wang Qi entered the room, he sat lightly on the chair and listened to the conversation between the two without saying a word.

Hearing Ye Xianggao's question, he saw Wang Qi smile softly: "The two adults are in love." ”

"Why?" Sun Chengzong frowned.

"How to deal with King Xin is the emperor's business, I and other courtiers, why bother with royal affairs," Wang Qi looked unconcerned, as if the target of the big explosion was not himself.

"However, everyone in the world is watching," Sun Chengzong seemed to understand what Wang Qi meant, and said thoughtfully: "What does Lang Guogong mean is to make this matter public, and then see how public opinion is, and then do things?" ”

"Again, let the emperor do things," Wang Qi didn't care about Zhu Youzhen's small actions, such a prince who is not like a human monarch will not be able to become a climate after all, otherwise he would not have been the emperor for seventeen years, and in the end he only left the reputation of a king who died in Sheji, to be honest, then Yang Guang is also a dead Sheji, can he talk about it in the same day?

"Lang Guogong is really a big husband!" Ye Xianggao and Sun Chengzong raised their thumbs together, this kind of admiration was both from the bottom of their hearts and with a kind of jealousy...... For the person who assassinated him, there was not the slightest hatred, but the words were full of calculations, the kind of scheming that took more than ten steps before and after, this kind of person, is it too terrible?

Sometimes, Ye Xianggao has to wonder, is Wang Qi's keen political sense born or is there a master to guide him?

Is there really a God-given person?

———

Three days later, the Qianqing Palace.

There were a number of Zhu Zi ministers standing in the hall.

Although after the White Lotus Rebellion, the court ushered in a great purge, but the number of courtiers in the palace every day did not decrease, but increased.

After all, in this Ming Dynasty, there is a shortage of everything, but there is no shortage of officials.

At this moment, there was some silence in the court, and all the courtiers lowered their heads, waiting for the emperor to speak.

And on Zhu Youxiao's royal table, there is a fold presented by the cabinet.

There is no interest in the trade between Shandong and the Wa Kingdom.

There is also a lion auspicious recital presented by Guangdong, and the apocalypse also has a gloomy face and is thrown aside.

Sun Chuanting of Puzhou governed the people in a good way, and the governor of Shanxi asked for commendation. The Emperor of the Apocalypse only nodded, and also did not say a word.

The ministers in the palace look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks.

On the throne, Zhu Youxiao looked at the last notebook on the table with a contradictory face: Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, united with the officials of Shuntianfu and the displaced people in the outer city, made 10,000 catties of gunpowder, and tried to bury half of the capital to send the Duke of Langguo back to heaven.

This is the transcript of Yan Yinglong, deputy envoy of the General Administration Yamen.

Because, the former general political envoy Lu Yu has already given everyone a sample, climbing on Wang Qi's thigh, in just three months, Lu Yu has been promoted from the original Qingshui Yamen, a marginal figure in the imperial court, to the left servant of the household department, in charge of the money, grain, and transportation of several provinces, which can be described as the limelight.

And Yan Yinglong's approach is obviously to emulate his predecessor.

Zhu Youxiao pursed his lips tightly and couldn't say a word for a long time.

In fact, yesterday, he had already learned about this matter through Ye Xianggao, and he was worried about it for the past two days, but he didn't expect someone to poke it out directly in the court, which really caught Zhu Zheng off guard.

To tell the truth, the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't want to kill this younger brother, as an emperor, he was a lonely man, and if he took down his younger brother because of this matter, then this emperor would be too cold-blooded.

"Yan Yinglong, are you here?" Zhu Youxiao stirred his hands in his sleeves for a long time, and finally spoke.

"Minister Yan Yinglong knocks to see Your Majesty!" Yan Yinglong, the deputy envoy of the general administration, bowed down to the throne.

"What do you think about this?" Apocalypse wants to see the opinions of the courtiers.

"If you go back to Your Majesty, what matters is not what the ministers think, but what the people of the world think, what the people of Beijing City think, and what the Duke of Lang Guo thinks?" Yan Yinglong rolled up his sleeves and said solemnly, he didn't want to be the target of the public, he just wanted to take the opportunity to cling to Wang Qi and support the Duke of Langguo.

To be exact, it is good to publicize it to Langguo.

What do the people of the world think?

What do people in Beijing think?

To be honest, the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't care very much, after all, so many stubborn forces in Donglin had been uprooted from the court by themselves, were you still afraid of any turbulent public opinion?

However, what exactly does Wang Qi think?

This is what the Emperor of the Apocalypse values the most

"Lang Guogong is also one of the parties involved in this matter," Zhu Youxiao coughed lightly twice and looked at Wang Qi: "Lang Guogong, what do you think?" ”

In the court, everyone looked at Wang Qi.

The court disputes all started by him, and it was a big surprise that a prince of the country forced the prince to make such a decision.

But in comparison, the prince's methods are really inferior.

The people and officials who originally had some good feelings for the Donglin faction have also changed their positions in the past few days and chose to stand on their sides again.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that His Royal Highness King Xin is young and ignorant, and the reason for this matter is either to be bewitched, or unable to distinguish between right and wrong, or impulsive, no matter what, after all, it has not caused any substantial harm, therefore, the minister suggests that His Royal Highness King Xin be banned from Huzhou and fined for one year, which is enough."

Is it enough?

Everyone in the hall sighed secretly.

This Lang Guogong's methods are also too dark.

When these words came out, it made him even more uncomfortable than killing the prince of Xin.

Listen to what the parties have to say about their opponents:

Young and ignorant,

Deceived by men,

Don't distinguish between right and wrong,

On the spur of the moment.

As soon as the four comments came out, King Xin's life had almost nothing to do with political affairs.
