Chapter 123: Death to Death
Chapter 123
"Where's Lin Ran?"
Since the Empress Dowager left the palace, she has been letting people report Jin Wuwei's whereabouts, and she feels that with her emperor's love for Lu Desheng, there must be Lu Desheng in the funeral list! She had been waiting for that moment to come.
But when she heard Jin Wuwei knock on the door of the Chengen Mansion, she suspected that she had misheard, "Where did you say Lin Ran was?" ”
The little eunuch who replied said tremblingly, "Because of the Queen Mother, the commander of Jin Wulin Dye Lin took Jin Wuwei to Cheng'en Gong's house. ”
The Empress Dowager only felt dizzy, what did the emperor want to do? Whom will he give death?
"Immediately set up the Imperial Palace for the mourning family! Fast! ”
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager's ceremonial driver hurried to the Imperial Palace, and was about to go to Emperor Kangcheng's bedroom, but was stopped by Wei Zili.
The Queen Mother said, "Presumptuous! Open up to the mourning family! ”
Wei Zili was unmoved, and did not get out of the way, "Queen Mother, the emperor said it, no one will see it." ”
When he said this, the Jin Wuwei who was guarding the Imperial Palace all looked at the Queen Mother, and their eyes were sharp.
The Queen Mother probably realized something, and she shouted inside, "Emperor, you can't do this, he is your little uncle!" ”
Emperor Kang Cheng, who had just vomited blood inside, sneered, his mother knew very well, she didn't know the funeral list at all, but as soon as Jin Wuwei went to the Chengen Mansion, she guessed that something was going to happen to her brother.
He also received the news that Lin Ran had just sent back, he had just come out of the Xie family at that time, and according to their speed, he had just arrived at the Chengen Mansion now, right?
Cheng'en Mansion
After listening to the emperor's nephew's edict to accompany the funeral, Peng Yong, the uncle of the country, hugged the pillar and wept bitterly, refusing to die generously.
Lin Ran looked at the time and decided to persuade him one last time, if he didn't listen, he would have to let people do it, "Uncle Guo, please choose one, and then go on the road, don't force us to do it, leave a little dignity for yourself." ”
Uncle Guo hugged the pillar and cried a handful of snot and tears, "Sister, save me, let my nephew let me go, I don't want to die yet!" ”
Sheng Huaixing shook his head on the side, why did he know today? The sentence on the edict, 'I found the immortal alchemy pill for me, and I am very relieved' revealed the key to his disaster.
"Do it!" Lin Ran ordered that from the time they stepped into the Cheng'en Mansion, Peng Yong had already sent people to report to the palace, and if the emperor wanted to release them, someone would have stopped them if they had been delayed for so long. Since no one has come, the meaning is clear.
As a result, the dignified uncle was strangled to death by Jin Wuwei.
"Let's go, go to the next one!"
Jin Wuwei went to three houses in just one hour, and the official eunuchs in Chang'an City were suddenly silent, and when they learned that the emperor had even taken away his uncle before his big trip, they had lost their temper, and they all silently prayed in their hearts that Jin Wuwei would not go to their house tonight!
You must know that the ministers were still in full swing discussing which prince to support as the prince.
You must know that the emperor dies and they will be buried with them, they will not secretly look forward to the emperor's death, they will definitely deeply hope that he will live a long life, no, long live.
The Zhao family watched the movements of Zhi Jinwu with fear, afraid that they would come in the direction of the Zhao family.
Yan Mansion
"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict says, the imperial history is upright, the dynasty is resolute, to impeach and picket hundreds of officials as their own responsibility, not afraid of the powerful, outspoken advice, I am very pleased, special gift order to accompany the funeral! Chin this! ”
Yan Hua listened numbly, even if the emperor's edict praised him as a flower, it couldn't change the fact that he was going to take him away, and he was going to bury the emperor!
"Why?"
Seeing him like this, Sheng Huaixing kindly explained, "Lord Yan, the emperor is about to make a big trip, and he can't do without imperial history." ”
"Then he can let Lu Desheng go down to accompany him!" Yan Hua shouted hoarsely.
"Lord Yan, be cautious! This has come to this, so let's think more about our children and grandchildren. We are not the only ones who come to the door tonight. In order to let him die in a hurry, Sheng Huaixing had to say one more word, "Lord Yan, please." We still have important business ahead of us, and we can't afford to waste any more time. ”
When the Yan family heard what he said, they inexplicably felt less sad, what's going on? Yes, their Yan family is not the most unlucky, the Xue family, the Xie family and even the Chengen family in front of them are obedient, can their Yan family still resist?
When he came out of the Yan family, Lin Ran looked at him.
"Commander, why are you looking at me like this?"
"You didn't say anything when you were at the Xie family."
Sheng Huaixing laughed for a moment, and then replied, "The Xie family understands the righteousness very well, so I don't need to say more." I just said that just so as not to delay my work. ”
Then, they walked nearly 10 more families.
Sheng Huaixing can be seen clearly, the person who wrote the edict is a real promoter. For these ministers who are to be buried with them, the edict counts their crimes if they are guilty, and then gives them death: if they are not guilty, they praise him, all kinds of praises, saying that he is too useful, and the emperor wants to take him away, take him underground and continue to reuse, and then give him death.
After the execution of official duties this night, his praise for the emperor had a shadow in his heart. It is estimated that when the ministers heard the edict, they also thought the same: Your Majesty, don't praise it, don't praise it, can we not praise it? Just want not to die.
The emperor even gave death to a favored minister, whose status was second only to Lu Desheng.
The reason given by the emperor for death was that he wanted a caring one.
As soon as these words came out, it was a bolt from the blue for the favored minister. The other party called out, they are all favored ministers, why do you want to treat them differently, Your Majesty?
The commander told him that it was actually the emperor who hated him for not being strict in his mouth and secretly revealed the things around him.
Every time they finish one, they tick one off the list and move on to the next.
In Chang'an City this night, they killed people rolling.
Later, someone counted the ministers who were buried with death that night, and found that the courtiers of their dynasty were embarrassed, and it was embarrassing to be the courtiers of Emperor Kangcheng.
In the Imperial Palace, Emperor Kang Cheng didn't sleep all night, and he counted the ministers who had been dealt with: Xue Huaimin, the secretary of the ministry, Xie Mingtang and others, Peng Yong, the uncle of the country, Yan Hua, the imperial historian, Chen Bingguang, the prince and the prince, and Liu Shujie, the favored minister......
It's the last one.
He has done everything he should do, and if there is anything missing, it can only be left to the children and grandchildren to solve. He thought with a sigh.
This time, he made a move, almost treating everyone equally, and if he felt threatened, each family took one or two people. He just wanted to cut off some people, especially those big families, not to force them to rebel and cause turmoil in the dynasty. He doesn't suffer from widowhood and unevenness, and he feels that he has no problem doing this.
Indeed, as Emperor Kang Cheng expected, those eunuchs who were patronized by Jin Wuwei on this night went out to inquire and found that Emperor Kang Cheng's attack was a bit wide this time, and then suddenly they were not so sad.
You got a hand chopped off? I had a leg cut.
Your head has been plucked off. My stomach is gone.
Everybody has a loss? That's fine, it's still alive, and it's slowly recovering.
Only Xie Zhan, listening to the reply of his henchman, guessed the emperor's intentions. Those ministers who were buried with them also knew that the praise of the edict was really praised, and it was a real crime that should not be announced!
He couldn't help but sigh that the emperor's balance was really good.
Lu Songli was also lamenting Emperor Kang Cheng's imperial mental skills, and felt that he had to award him a Duanshui master as a lifetime achievement award to be worthy of his hand.
In the Imperial Palace, Emperor Kang Cheng put down the list in his hand and slowly stretched out his hand to Wei Zili on the side, "Take it." ”
"Your Majesty, do you really want to?" Wei Zili's eyes were already full of tears.
"Hmm."
Emperor Kang Cheng looked at the nine pills in his hand, then took them, lay back on the dragon bed, and closed his eyes.
A quarter of an hour later, when the light of the early winter sun pierced through the clouds, the bell of the dead dragon rang through Chang'an City: when-when-when......
In Chang'an City, almost everyone went through a thrilling night, and at this moment, everyone listened to the bell and felt so lucky.
The nine sounds of the death knell bell, Lu Songli also heard it, she stood up and looked in the direction of the palace, when you are alive, when you are dead, you are dead, Song Rank, you really deserve to be a generation of emperors.
