Chapter 199: The Prince
The next day, the emperor looked at the position below that half of the position was missing, and suddenly sadness came from it, if it wasn't for the third child, how stable his court was.
The soldiers are strong and strong, and there is no external trouble, but unfortunately because of the third child, all this is ruined.
"Bring the third child up!"
Today is still the third prince, and it will not be after that.
The third prince was dressed in prison clothes with his hair disheveled, and was escorted up, with chains on his hands and feet.
The third prince was pale, and although he was not tortured, the gap in his heart was not good.
The officials on both sides looked at him and wanted to kill people, and the people present also went home to learn that their homes had also been attacked, and many people died.
Even parents, wives, children, and brothers.
Yesterday, the man in black attacked completely indiscriminately, and at that time, he had already learned that the three princes had worshipped.
These people were ordered to die, if it succeeded, only the officials who were loyal to the emperor would be killed, and if they worshipped, they would all be killed, at least the court would have to pay a handful of blood.
The third prince walked to the front and was forced to kneel.
His eyes were red, and he looked at the emperor with hatred.
The emperor's heart was uncomfortable, and his son hated himself so much.
"Third child, are you guilty?"
The third prince sneered, "Heh, the king is the king, there is nothing to say!" ”
Indeed, if yesterday he was made, then he is the one who sits on it today.
At this time, he was reduced to a prisoner, and he could not be let go, and he was bound to be executed.
"Okay, very good, Gonggong Li, proclaim."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Gonggong Li stepped forward and unfolded a bright yellow holy decree.
"Fengtian carried it, the emperor edict said, the three princes intended to rebel, imprison the saint, mutilate their father and brother, and kill innocent people indiscriminately...... The crime is unforgivable, degraded to the common people, beheaded at three o'clock tomorrow at noon, the women of the Three Princes' Mansion are demoted to official slaves, and the men are exiled ......"
“…… The three princes and concubines helped to abuse, entered the cold palace, were demoted to commoners, and were given a red ............ The Eighth Prince was young and did not participate, so he volunteered to ask for orders to guard the Huangling ......"
The third prince listened in a daze, and when he heard that his younger brother went to guard the Huangling, his heart ached, he and his mother were innocent, if it wasn't for his mother's instigation, he would not be so bound to win that throne.
He had a hint of regret, but it was useless now.
"The three princes' foreign family aided in abuse, raided the house and exiled, and his uncle embezzled silver taels, bought and sold official positions, and asked to behead ...... tomorrow"
The third prince's family is the maiden family of the mother's concubine, and in recent years it has become more and more arrogant, and several young masters are even more arrogant and domineering, robbing the people's daughters.
Then there is the Yue family of the three princes, the right prime minister's house, the right minister saved the emperor and died, but the death penalty can be avoided, the living crime is inescapable, the right minister regardless of the size of the official position is all been lifted, the silver is confiscated, and it is degraded to the common people, and its young children are not allowed to participate in the scientific examination within ten years.
A few holy decrees go down, and these families are doomed.
The third prince was put in prison, and before leaving, he interceded for the eighth prince, but the emperor ignored it, leaving the eighth prince to guard Huangling, which was already a blessing.
The three princes and concubines sat in the palace in a daze, dressed in glorious clothes, wearing expensive jewelry, and looked at the maids and daughters-in-law in front of them in a daze, packing up their clothes and money in a panic, even if there was no good place to go, they could not be implicated.
"The Divine Decree has arrived! Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict, the three princes and concubines...... Specially given a red! ”
The third prince and concubine suddenly went crazy, pulled the holy decree, looked at the words on it, and suddenly burst into tears.
"How so? I am a concubine, I am a queen, and I am the most precious woman in the world......"
From muttering to sudden hysteria.
"Why? Why? Haha, useless thing, actually defeated. ”
"Dog Emperor, you actually want me to die? I've been serving you for so many years, and you want me to die? ”
This man is crazy.
The father-in-law sighed and waved his hand to the back, "Send the mother on the road!" ”
The third prince and the concubine died, and only the eighth prince remained, and the eighth prince saw his mother's corpse with his own eyes, and his face was dumbfounded and he didn't know what he was thinking.
He is respected but the eighth prince, his mother is favored, and his brother is very trusted by his father.
But why has it changed?
There was turmoil in the capital, and the people watched as the strings of prisoners tied together and sent to their cells.
These people used to be high, but I didn't expect them to all go to prison at this time.
The people pointed and pointed and only dared to whisper, for fear of getting into trouble.
From these officials' mansions, a lot of silver taels and precious jewelry were found, and there were even secret passages, and there were even a lot of jewels and gold bars inside.
Everything was piled up, there were huge numbers, and everything went back to the treasury.
When the quantity was reported to the emperor, he looked up in shock, "These people are so greedy for ink, and no one has found out?" Check, check thoroughly! ”
In a word, there was another violent storm, countless people were dug up, and the court came to a big change.
After the punishment is over, it is time to reward the meritorious deeds.
“…… General Lu, Chu Shizi, Ye Mo Xuan and others escorted meritorious, and rewarded silver...... Promoted to one level ......"
Mo Xuan is a fifth-grade official, and he was promoted to a fourth-grade official position, and Mo Xuan and the others hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.
It has been less than three years since Mo Xuan was promoted from the fifth rank to the fourth rank, but no one said that he was not qualified enough.
Hou Ye has reached the peak, it is impossible to be promoted, so simply give the prince a promotion, of course, the reward is essential.
Mo Xuan was promoted, and Yun Sheng was also promoted, becoming a four-grade edict, at this time, the court was employing people, and there were a lot fewer officials, and they needed to be supplemented.
At the most important moment, "the four princes have made meritorious contributions to the escort, and they have been named the virtuous king, and the station is ......"
"The second prince, love the elder brother and love the people...... Specially named the crown prince, then the auspicious day will be settled in the East Palace......"
The Second Highness finally became the crown prince, the second princess became the crown princess, and the side concubine Chu was still the side concubine, but she became the side concubine of the crown prince.
The establishment of the prince is sometimes also a means to stabilize the court, the fourth prince and the tenth prince congratulated the second brother vigorously, followed by other officials.
Today, the prince happened to be allowed to go to court on a special basis, but starting tomorrow, he can go to court together.
At the end of the early dynasty, several princes were in front, and the two princes of Moxuan were behind, and they went out of the palace gate together.
It's been too thrilling lately, and they want to find a place to get together and say a few words.
The prince smiled and teased the second prince, "Yo, the prince has a treat today, we are promoted, but we still work hard for you, so it must be a situation." ”
Mo Xuan also teased, "That's it, let's have a drink today!" ”
The fourth prince put his arm around his shoulders, "Second brother has encountered a happy event today, you can't hide it." ”
The second prince was helpless, so he had to pull the ten princes together, "Old ten, go, everyone goes!" ”
A group of people went to the restaurant of the second prince, ordered a bunch of dishes, and served good wine.
As soon as the door closed, several people began to talk.
The second prince cherishes the current situation very much, and he doesn't know if he can always maintain such a relationship in the future.
Especially after ascending the throne, at that time, I was afraid that there was only a relationship between monarchs and ministers.
