260 The emperor traced the cause of Shunde's death, and the factory guards of Daxing Prison were reinstated
Several elders, Shang Shu, as well as Luo Tong and He Wenyuan, who were in charge of the ministry, waited in the West Flower Hall for two hours, and it was not until it was close to noon that Zhu Qiyu walked in with a tired face.
Everyone was busy kneeling, but Zhu Qiyu waved his hand directly: "You don't have to salute, you don't have to persuade me, just sit down and talk about business directly." ”
When the ministers heard this, they had to sit down in turn.
Zhu Qiyu used to be crooked on the soft couch, but now he is extremely rare to sit upright, full of harsh and murderous intentions. Then he didn't consult with the ministers, and directly began to issue an edict:
"The first thing is to posthumously call Zhu Jianji, the king of servants, as the king of the servants, and posthumously crown the two county lords as princesses, and the princesses of the servants are buried in the east of the mountain.
The former princess Wang was guilty of murdering the prince and abolished the position of the princess. Wang's family was full of people, dismissed, raided, and exiled for 3,000 miles.
I fasted with my family for three days to mourn the princess, the princess, and the two princesses.
Everyone else doesn't have to mourn, just celebrate the New Year normally. ”
When Chen Xun heard this, he was about to get up and question. Wang Wen hurriedly took the order first, and then firmly dissuaded Chen Xun with his eyes.
Chen Xun looked around again, and saw that the others didn't have any intention of making a sound, so he had to sit back.
The reason why everyone is silent is also very simple: although everyone knows that the whole incident may have something else hidden, it is not as simple as it seems. But so what, if the Wang family doesn't fall, what's the matter with the ministers.
In the eyes of everyone, instructing the palace people to poison King Yu is more like the handiwork of the Empress Dowager Sun, and it is unlikely that the Wang family is stupid enough to use such an easy way to set himself on fire.
Of course, it is also possible that Wang's work was very secretive and difficult to verify, but it was strongly characterized by the emperor as poisoning.
It is also possible that Wang's cronies acted as clever and took the initiative to poison King Yu.
But no matter which possibility it is, Wang is the princess of Yu personally selected by the Empress Dowager Sun, and the relationship between the two is extremely close, which is a fact.
It is also true that Empress Dowager Sun has been planting eyeliner and cultivating henchmen in the palace from beginning to end.
It is also true that Wang turned a blind eye to Empress Dowager Sun's infiltration of the palace of the Emperor Sun, and even monitored every move of the palace for the Empress Dowager Sun.
As a woman and a wife, she does not look to her husband, but unites with outsiders to pit her husband. The ministers did not feel the need to stand up for such people.
Queen Hu is the serious housewife of the Ming Dynasty, and none of the ministers have avenged Queen Hu. Now a mere princess who eats inside and out, it is not worth letting a top civil servant take the future to fight for.
After all, even fools can see that the current emperor is on the verge of breaking out. Now to touch the emperor's scales is purely to find death.
The emperor is whatever he says, and he can't afford to raise the bar with the emperor for something that has nothing to do with everyone's interests.
Seeing that no one objected, Zhu Qiyu issued a second edict: "Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was reappointed as the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of War, and Luo Tong, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of War, and he was also a scholar of Dongge University, and joined the cabinet to participate in the maintenance of the aircraft; Jiang Yuan's promotion to the left of the military department.
He Wenyuan stepped down as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, and was reappointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and was promoted from a bachelor of Hanlin to a scholar of Dongge University.
Wang Wen was promoted to a fellow of Wenyuan Pavilion University.
In the future, the cabinet and the six books will be stabilized, and I hope that Zhong Aiqing will work hard in the future and not lose hope. ”
The three people who were called hurriedly knelt down to thank him.
This time, Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to take care of the faces of some important ministers, and directly gathered all the Shangshu of the six departments in Beijing.
Anyway, the face has been torn, so I simply don't pretend, and now, Beijing's cabinet ministers and six Shangshu have all been replaced by their own people.
Next, Zhu Qiyu announced the third and final edict: "The palace of the king of Yu involves the palace people who poisoned the king of Yuai, and I will immediately order the Jinyi guard to be handed over to the criminal department."
Wang Aiqing is responsible for organizing the trial of the three divisions, and the case will be concluded tomorrow morning in just one day. All the palace people involved were pulled to the entrance of the vegetable market at noon. ”
Wang Wen accepted the order without hesitation.
Zhu Qiyu sent everyone away, and summoned Jinyi Weimenda, Lu Gao and others in.
Before entering, Menda and the others accepted Lu Gao's persuasion, and unanimously decided not to ask the emperor for guilt after entering.
Last night, it was Jinyiwei who was in charge of taking care of Wang's family, and now that something like this has happened, it stands to reason that Jinyiwei will be blamed. But Lu Gao is a very thoughtful and ambitious person.
The so-called wealth and danger are sought, and there are people in Jinyi who are willing to gamble with their heads, and Lu Gao is one of them.
In fact, the person in charge of guarding last night was Lu Gao and his cronies, and Menda, as a thousand households with real power, handed over the errand to Lu Gao, and went home himself.
As for what happened in the backyard of the King of Yu's mansion, and what Lu Gao did, only Lu Gao and his cronies and subordinates knew.
Sure enough, Zhu Qiyu didn't pay attention to last night's incident, didn't gossip much, and directly began to explain the task: "The first thing is to immediately hand over the palace people involved in the palace and their confessions to the Criminal Department.
The second thing is that I received a secret report that someone in the Tai Hospital colluded with the Wang family and wanted to control the death date of King Yu on the day of the Zhengdan Dynasty, so as to damage my prestige and affect the normal progress of the country's major affairs.
You go and torture everyone in the hospital to find out who is in causance.
The third thing is to investigate the death of Princess Shunde. I want to know how Shi Jing, the commander of the horses, colluded with the imperial doctor and killed Princess Shunde.
In the matter of killing Princess Shunde, what role the Sun family of the Marquis of Huichang played in it must also be clear to me.
In addition, Menda Shengjin Yiwei commanded the affairs, and Lu Gao promoted Jinyi Wei Qianhu. The meritorious people who participated in the trial of the case under your command were each promoted to one level, made a list, and reported to the Marquis of Wuding.
I will give you a total of one day for the two cases I have just confessed, and I will know the outcome before the sun sets tomorrow.
I give you the right to act cheaply, let go and investigate, and I will bear all the consequences. ”
Menda and Lu Gao hurriedly thanked En for receiving the order and went to work non-stop.
After explaining the matter, Zhu Qiyu got up and returned to the room.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw several favorite concubines busy taking off the red lanterns that had been hung and replacing them with plain lanterns.
The couplet that had already been pasted was also removed.
Seeing that there is no longer a festive atmosphere in the house.
Zhu Qiyu sighed heavily and slowly walked into the inner room.
Several favorite concubines knew that the emperor was in a heavy mood, so they served more diligently.
As soon as Zhu Qiyu sat down on the soft couch, Lin Xiangyu personally held the herbal tea and handed it over.
After taking a big sip, Zhu Qiyu immediately instructed: "In the past few days, none of you sisters should go out, don't see anyone, and don't say anything.
At this juncture, you must avoid suspicion and don't let others grab the handle. ”
Lin Xiangyu nodded, and asked softly, "Over there in the palace of the king of Yu, do you want to send someone to take care of it?" ”
Zhu Qiyu smiled bitterly: "What else to take care of, the master of the palace has been wiped out, and all the slaves have been executed." The subordinate officers and guards have all been assigned to the army.
There are also those palace people who poisoned them, and when the trial of the three law divisions is over, they will be delayed at noon tomorrow.
In the entire palace of the Emperor of the Emperor, no one is gone, and the Emperor is about to disappear completely. “
