The rise of the prince

Chapter 461 Handling
When Yu Chengan woke up leisurely, he found himself lying on the bed in the bedroom, his wife and daughter were crying beside him, his sons were also there, and Shen Sheng was also beside him.

"Master, you are awake, master!" the wife cried.

His whole body was in pain, his head was heavy, and the muscles in his shoulders and back were numb as if they didn't exist. He could hardly feel it, and he couldn't lift his hands. His son came to help him sit up, and he raised his hand slightly to signal for Shen Sheng to come over.

"Father-in-law." Shen Sheng said softly.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"It's been two days and two nights."

"Really." Yu Chengan sat up with his son's support. "Is what that woman said true?" He opened his mouth and asked, his voice weak.

Can Sheng hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "I'm afraid. I'm afraid some of it is true, but it may not be bluffing."

"That's right, you're right, you're right!

She is just a girl, so it is impossible to have such a method, it must be a bluff, a bluff." Yu Chengan muttered weakly to himself, and cursed at Shen Sheng weakly: "Then what are you waiting for, go and investigate!Go and check it out."

Shen Sheng lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Father-in-law, I have been traveling around for the past two days, and I have been there long ago. The emperor in the palace does not see outsiders, and the East Palace also closes the door."

"Then Xue Fang's mansion, go find Xue Fang!"

"Master Xue and the Xue residence also refused to open the door." Can Sheng said helplessly.

"Where's Tong Guan?"

Can Sheng shook his head, suddenly, the hut fell silent, Yu Chengan's face turned pale, his lips trembled, he couldn't speak, he kept leaning on his son to support him, and muttered to himself: "Impossible, she is just a woman, The generation of women, only the generation of women"

After a while, there was noise outside, and the youngest son was about to go out to see when he was stopped by a tall and burly man. The visitor was wearing armor and a knife, and the armored swords and guns were rattling, and a few soldiers stopped him after a while At the door of the hut, the timid female relatives were already crying in fright.

The light was blocked, and the dimly lit room was full of people. After a while, Shangzhi's personal guards separated, and the commander of Shangzhi's personal guards, Wei Li, came in with the imperial edict in his hand: "The sinful minister, Yu Cheng'an, accepts the edict.

The emperor's edict said: Yu Cheng'an, who was originally a political adviser, was a capital enemy and connected with foreign countries. He did not keep his loyalty and framed his colleagues, and deceived the sages and deceived the emperor."

Every time he recited a sentence, it was like a knife piercing Yu Chengan's heart. The atmosphere in the hut was solemn, and everyone knelt on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

"Family property and wealth, sealed up and fined, demoted to common people, tattooed and distributed outside the customs, hereby!"

When Wei Li finished reading the imperial decree, all the female family members cried on the ground, his sons were also scared to cry, Yu Chengan finally accepted the reality, his whole body trembled, tears streaming down his face.

"The woman said thank you, Master, for sending business to the palace."

"The vicious woman also said that the book that the master lied about the situation in Jiangzhou was in the hands of Prime Minister Wang, and the letter to the commander of the Xiangjun in Ningjiang Prefecture is now in the palace!"

"She said that the master deceived the king, formed a party for personal gain, and framed important officials of the court, descendants of the Tian family, and royal county kings. The evidence is solid, and the crime will be confirmed sooner or later."

"She cares about the master, and she understands the arrangements for the master. This time the matter is over, the master will be exiled to Guanbei in all likelihood. The north is bitterly cold. These ginseng are for the master to keep out the cold! Don't thank her."

Those words kept replaying in his mind, and each sentence pierced his heart like a thorn, making his heart ache and sending chills down his spine.

Only then did he suddenly realize that he, or they, had been played with by a little girl from the beginning to the end, and he didn't know it, "The witch! The witch! She is not a human. How could she be a human! "

Yu Chengan had tears streaming down his face as he cursed, but it didn't change anything. The Shangzhi personal guards confiscated Yu's mansion, and then the man in the family was fined and exiled into the army, and the woman was sent to the teaching workshop. If someone with good qualifications bought it, no People buy it as official chicken.

In just ten days or so, the powerful Deputy Prime Minister Yu Chengan fell like this.

Not only Yu Cheng'an, Zhang Rang from the Ministry of Military Affairs, Wei Guoan from Zhongshushe, and Shen Sheng from Yantie Division were imprisoned one after another. Sentenced to be beheaded for public display.

This incident also caused a lot of trouble, because Wei Guoan was born in the imperial examination and was an out-and-out literati. No matter what the Jing Guozu system did not kill the literati, it naturally attracted opposition from many literati. was killed.

The warriors have long been dissatisfied with this rule and supported the emperor one after another. In the end, Wei Guoan could not escape death under the emperor's insistence.

It can be said that the turmoil in the court is changing, and the people in Beijing are talking about it, but everything is under the control of the palace.Inspired by the words of the poem, the storytellers and singers led by Sun Wenyan had already spread the news of Pingnan Wangcha's corruption and uncovered millions of taels of silver all over the capital, and almost everyone knew about it.

The people rushed to tell each other, cheering and cheering. Once the incident happened, they would definitely favor King Pingnan, and Li Xingzhou's people wanted it.

"Now that things come out, and there is a connection, the people of the world will naturally record the things that tripped Yu Chengan, Wei Guoan, Zhang Rang, Shen Sheng and others on that guy. Those people are also colluding with the corrupt officials in Beijing People, the hearts of the people will naturally fall to him." Shiyu said while digging the soil with a hoe, she planned to open a vegetable garden in the small courtyard, and grow vegetables like at home.

Gillian and Yue'er clapped their hands while listening: "Sister Shiyu, you are really amazing."

Shiyu smiled, "It's just some experience. As long as there is a little hint about this kind of thing, most people in the world will think so. Even if Yu Chengan and the Beijing officials just want to cooperate temporarily, as long as the news gets out of the palace, they will Turned into a prince to investigate corrupt officials in the north of Beijing, and was falsely accused, so he fought back, investigated layer by layer, and finally spent a lot of hard work to bring down the black hand behind it, that is, Yu Chengan and others."

"Why did it become like this?"

"Most things in the world are accidental and complicated. In fact, many of them have no connection in the first place. It's just a coincidence. But the words of coincidence are so hard to remember and understand, so people always like to forcibly add relationships to them, so that they are easy to remember and easy to understand. some.

This is also the trend of the times, and people in the world only want to believe that the two are related. "Shiyu said putting down the hoe, resting and panting: "That's good, it's convenient to build momentum, and his reputation will be improved to a higher level. "

At the end of the winter month, the court battle that had lasted for several months came to an abrupt end. A large number of people, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Yu Chengan, fell from their horses one after another.

Where there are people, there are grievances and disputes. Once Yu Chengan fell, those who were close to Yu Chengan, Wei Guoan, Zhang Rang, Shen Sheng, etc. on weekdays were also implicated, no matter whether they were at fault or not.

Every day, many references are submitted to Zhongshu's desk, and because the three divisions of Yushitai, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs are in charge of the case, some people in it take this opportunity to avenge those who have vengeance, and those who have grievances.

Looking at the memorials that filled his desk every day, De Gong also had a headache. He knew that none of these people was absolutely clean, the difference was that some were caught by others, and some were not.

In the end, we had to follow the method of minimizing involvement, and finally removed the masterminds of Yu Chengan, Wei Guoan, Zhang Rang, Shen Sheng, etc., and seventeen officials, large and small, were involved. Most of these people were with Yu Cheng at first. An went to Pingnan Wang together.

The largest ones have the same knowledge from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War, and the younger ones go to the head of the Guanglu Temple.And there must be a large number of officials in Beijing North.

This case can be said to involve a huge amount, and it will be one of the best in ten years, but it is not as big as the big case of King Wu's conspiracy.

On Dongyue 23, the large ship from Jiangzhou finally docked at the port, guarded by Kaiyuan government officials, and thousands of soldiers from the new army led by Di Zhi formed a long queue to separate the crowd on the roadside, equivalent to millions of taels of silver, gold, Zhenbao disembarked at Wangfu Ferry.

With the publicity of the palace first, the number of people who came to watch the excitement was countless, crowded like a dark ocean, and Di Zhi was sweating profusely in winter, so he had to send more people to maintain law and order.

From the ferry to the palace in the north of the city, hundreds of people worked hard from morning to night, and the carts and carts of gold and silver treasures, the onlookers were dumbfounded, what is iron proof, this is iron proof!

The emperor in the palace was also dumbfounded. He didn't know whether he liked it or was angry. He praised Di Zhi, the deputy commander of the new army who was in charge of the escort.

With the huge amount of one million taels of silver entering Kaiyuan, the great things that King Pingnan has done have come to fruition. People who read books, sell songs, run errands and practice martial arts, all kinds of people, all kinds of people discuss this matter vividly after dinner.

For a time, King Pingnan won the hearts of the people and became famous.
