Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 302 How dare you meddle in government affairs, you rascal

Within an hour, the story of Chang Sheng's murder had spread to everyone in the capital.

There are unbelievers, there are angry people, there are even fearful people.

The military generals and nobles collectively did not believe it, because in their opinion, the lineage of King Kaiping would be broken if it was passed on to Chang Sheng.

Chang Mao was reckless, but he dared to fight and kill anyway, and did not fall into his father's reputation.

As for Chang Sheng...

To put it harshly, even his own uncle Lan Yu looked down on him, who else could he expect to look down on him?
In the words of some military generals, he is a guy who can't beat a fart with eight sticks, and he has earned the title of Duke for nothing.

However, when these people "coincidentally" passed by Lu's house, and accidentally walked into Lu's old house, they all shut up after seeing the horrific scene inside.

When they brought up Chang Sheng again, Uniform changed their tone and called Qu Ming injustice for Chang Sheng.

Ugh!
Chang Sheng is such an honest person, his Lu family can force an honest person like Chang Sheng into such a situation, how much is this Lu family going too far?

While helping Chang Sheng create public opinion, they mobilized various relationships to find people.

Although Lan Yu was not in the capital, Mrs. Ru from Liangguo Duke's Mansion in the capital rushed to Kaiping Palace as soon as possible to comfort Chang Sheng's wife, Mrs. Tang, and made an engagement with Mrs. Tang's daughter on behalf of her grandson.

Chang Mao's widow, Feng Shi, returned home overnight and begged his father Song Guogong Feng Sheng to intercede for Chang Sheng.

Feng Sheng couldn't bear to see this silly girl in his family, who was busy with her husband's family even after her husband died.

But what Chang Sheng has done is too big, and Feng Sheng doesn't have enough face, right?

Besides, even if he begged for mercy, it would not be his turn. Isn't Tang He, Lord Xinguo, still in the capital? Let him plead for his son-in-law!
When Tang He heard this, he was also speechless for a while.

While yelling at Chang Sheng for being an idiot, at the same time yelling at the Lu family as nothing.

Just thinking of interceding with Chang Sheng, old handsome Tang He had a hard time.

Since the establishment of the Great Power Dynasty, except for his brother Zhu Chongba, it seems that no one else has done this kind of extermination of people?
My son-in-law is so awesome, he dared to directly destroy people all over his family...

Butcher Zhu wanted to kill someone, so he had to think of a high-sounding reason.How did Chang Sheng's brain grow, how could he just listen to a few words from people and kill them all when his brain got hot?
For General Xungui's side, even if he was unable to write a letter to plead for Chang Sheng, he would try his best to bribe the jailer and send food to Chang Sheng in the prison.

What's more, he directly put his affection on Erhu's head, and wanted Erhu to help him find people.

Erhu looked at the pleading people, and sighed in his heart, these people really think highly of him.

I am just a dog of the emperor, whoever the emperor says to bite, we will bite, when will we be able to make our own decisions?
However, Erhu still mentioned something to Lao Zhu cryptically.

It's just that Lao Zhu put all his body and mind on Dasun at that time, so he didn't have the mood to pay attention to this matter at all.

Compared with the military general Xungui who was running around to rescue Chang Sheng, the civil servants did not stop.

Every civil official heard this and was filled with righteous indignation.

Chang Sheng dared to destroy people all over his family if he disagreed with him, so what about the other noble generals?

Once anyone can kill at will, will there still be order and system in Ming Dynasty?
Therefore, almost no organization was needed on the civil servants' side, and everyone who could write a letter denounced Chang Sheng's bad behavior, wishing to have his whole family copied and executed.

They also knew that this was impossible, not to mention Chang Sheng's relationship with the royal family, but just talking about his family's alchemy book iron certificate, and they definitely wouldn't be copied and executed because of this matter.

But no matter what, Chang Sheng must die!

This move was not for the Lu family's revenge, nor was it to uphold justice for the Lu family.

The reason why the civil servants have such thoughts is only for one purpose, that is, they do not want to become the next "Lu family".

There is an emperor who destroys people all over his family at every turn, and everyone is already terrified.

Now if a military general is picked out at random, he has the right to destroy people all over his family, so how can he be an official of Ming Dynasty?
This move is not to avenge the Lu family, but to protect himself and avoid the same tragedy!
Compared with the anger of generals and the fear of civilian officials, more people do not believe it.

The person who didn't believe all this the most was Chang Sen, the eldest son of the Chang family.

When Chang Sen heard that the second elder brother had killed the whole family of the Lu family, he froze in a daze, muttering incessantly.

"impossible!"

"Second brother is such a coward, how can he do such a big thing!"

"This must be framed by someone to bully my second brother!"

Chang Sen immediately rode to the Lu family's old house, but it was too late when he went, and the place had already been sealed by Ying Tianfu.

Chang Sen revealed his identity, thinking that the other party would be accommodating, but he couldn't imagine a person who looked like a scribe, and he was speechless with a single sentence.

"Your elder brother has already killed the whole family of the Lu family. As a younger brother, do you want to kill it again?" "I..."

"Since you want to see it, then go in and have a look!"

"I declare in advance that you are not allowed to touch anything inside!"

Chang Sen's face blushed and turned pale as he walked into Lu's house, and when he saw the corpses strewn all over the yard, his mind exploded with a bang.

But he still didn't want to believe that his second brother, who could eat cabbage and tofu all day long, could do such an earth-shattering event!

Although their Chang family has always looked down on the Lu family, it can be considered that the well water does not violate the river water, and there is no deep hatred between the two families.

Is my second brother out of his mind, or was he deceived by a traitor to do such a thing?
But Chang Sen has figured out one thing, and that is what the second brother said at the gate.

It turned out that the second brother had already embraced death at that time, and exchanged his own life for the whole Lu family...

"Second brother, why are you so stupid!"

The clerk at the side, hearing the words of the third master of the Chang family, thought that there was finally a conscientious person in the Chang family.

However, when he heard Chang Sen's last words, he wanted to slap this guy.

"Even if you want to kill someone, you can tell your brother to let him do it for you!"

"You are the pillar of our Chang family, how can you put yourself in it, woo woo woo..."

When the scribe heard what the third child of the Chang family said, he ordered someone to coax him out angrily.

This Chang family is too arrogant, if you say this in front of the corpses of more than 100 members of the Lu family, you will not be afraid of being killed by evil spirits at night!

Chang Sen was pushed out, and after he found out where his second brother was, he ran straight to the prison in Yingtian Mansion.

Yin Songyi of Yingtian Mansion originally didn't want Chang Sen to visit him, but when he thought that this guy could be regarded as the uncle of the future emperor's grandson, he turned a blind eye and let him spend money to bribe the jailer.

When Chang Sen came to the prison, he found his elder brother sitting on the haystack leaning against the wall, staring at the railing in a daze.

"Second brother..."

"Second brother!"

Chang Sen called several times before waking Chang Sheng up.

When Chang Sheng saw Chang Sen, he only asked one question.

"Is the third grandson awake?"

The Chang family has been marginalized for many years, and Chang Sen is an unknown bastard son of the Chang family. The wives he marries are all daughters of petty officials. How can he know the secrets in the palace.

Therefore, Chang Sen could only shake his head helplessly when he saw his elder brother's expectant inquiry.

"do not know……"

"Ugh!"

"Then you go back, I have already written the memorandum, begging His Majesty to pass on the title to you..."

When Chang Sen heard this, he knelt down in front of Chang Sheng with a plop, and while crying, he crawled towards Chang Sheng, grabbed Chang Sheng's arm and shook it.

"Second brother!"

"If you have any grievances, tell your younger brother. My younger brother is a useless person. Let my younger brother gamble with the Lu family!"

"Why do you bother putting yourself in there?"

"If you die, what do you ask the second sister-in-law and those three children to do, woo woo woo..."

Chang Sheng held Chang Sen's shoulder and said word for word.

"remember!"

"There are no useless people in the Chang family!"

"You are from the Chang family, so you are qualified to inherit your father's title, and you have the obligation to take good care of your two widows!"

Chang Sen shook his head in pain.

"I do not……"

"I'll go back and write a letter, begging His Majesty the Emperor, let me pay for my life!"

"Our Chang family cannot do without you, and the second sister-in-law cannot do without you..."

Chang Sheng looked at his foolish younger brother with helplessness written all over his face.

This silly boy thinks he's just playing house, and he still pays for his life?
If it's true that one life is worth one life, it's not enough to take down their entire Chang family...

"Silly brother, you also have a wife and children."

"If you die for me, won't your child lose his father?"

"Don't think about these useless things, go back quickly."

"Second brother has made a lot of money this time, and he replaced Lu's family all by himself, hahaha..."

"Second brother!"

Chang Sen wanted to persuade him a few more words, but unexpectedly, Chang Sheng suddenly turned his back and slapped him backhandedly.

"roll!"

"From now on, stand up and be a human being, and give our Chang family a personal appearance!"

"If you dare to cry again, I will never recognize you as a brother again!"

"Second brother, woo woo woo..."

"Let's go..."

Chang Sen got up from the ground, wiped his face with his sleeve indiscriminately, and ran out of the cell without looking back.

When Chang Sen got home, he locked himself in the study to write the memorial, and after finishing the memorial, he went to Hongwumen with the memorial.

When Chang Sen was kneeling outside the palace asking for an audience, Lao Zhu was looking at the thick pile of memorials with a depressed face.

These memorials all only wrote one thing, and that was to request that Chang Sheng be severely punished.

In fact, Lao Zhu also wanted to make big things into small things, and made small things into small things.

But no matter how he changed it, Chang Sheng would surely die.

Because Chang Sheng's behavior was not just as simple as violating the law of the Ming Dynasty, it had already touched the bottom line of all officials.

How can there be someone who destroys people all over the house at every turn?
If everyone is playing like this, how will the officials of Ming Dynasty survive?
However, as soon as he saw the eldest grandson kneeling beside him, he couldn't help it.

Dasun had been fighting with him all night, not eating or drinking, not even the medicine Hao Wenjie prescribed.

"You rebellious grandson, get up and drink the medicine first!"

"Don't drink!"

"If Grandpa Huang doesn't give his grandson and second uncle a way out, grandson will just keep kneeling like this!"

"You're still sick!"

"Then be sick and die!"

"you!"

Lao Zhu picked up a stack of memorials and threw them at Dasun.It's just that in the past, the flying memorial skills that hit every shot in the past were all missed this time, and none of them hit.

Zhu Yunxi picked up a memorial and flipped through it, and saw that it was a memorial from an official of the Ministry of Punishment, which emphasized the importance of the Daming Law, the viciousness of Chang Sheng's incident, and so on, and then suggested that His Majesty severely punish Chang Sheng and the Chang family. ...

Seeing that the eldest grandson was frowning deeply, Lao Zhu couldn't help asking.

"Does this memorial look uncomfortable?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head when he heard the words.

"good!"

"Actually, the memorial is quite correct, but my grandson is still reluctant to let my second uncle die."

"Ugh!"

When Lao Zhu heard what Dasun said, he hurriedly took this opportunity to clean himself up.

"You think we want to kill Li Shanchang and want your fourth aunt to be a widow?"

"The emperor is not the emperor of one family, but the emperor of the people of the world."

"We are often involuntary..."

After Zhu Yuanzhang said these words, he thought that his great grandson could praise himself a few words, even if he didn't praise himself, he still had to say that it was not easy for you, grandpa, do you understand his difficulties?

However, to Old Zhu's surprise, Ni Sun only said two words after hearing this.

"That's right..."

When Lao Zhu heard these two words, he became furious on the spot, jumped up from his chair, pointed at Ni Sun with his feet and cursed.

"What do you mean?"

"You mean we like to kill people. We want to kill Li Shanchang and your fourth uncle Ouyang Lun?"

Zhu Yunxi opened his big innocent eyes when he heard the words, and asked timidly.

"Is not it?"

"Isn't it about Li Shanchang that you are always narrow-minded? You think you are so good to Li Shanchang, but Li Shanchang dares to betray you. He knows that someone is going to hurt you, but he doesn't know to remind you..."

"And the matter of my fourth uncle, isn't it just to show that you are selfless, treat the royal family and relatives equally, and give other generals a warning?"

When Lao Zhu heard that Ni Sun had exposed him mercilessly, he was so angry that he picked up the whip and wanted to beat him.But before he swung his whip, he heard Ni Sun speak again.

"Don't scare people with a whip!"

"If you have the ability, you can beat me to death, and let me be your father's companion!"

"My grandson has heard about it. Second and fourth uncles also assassinated grandson this time. Grandpa Huang didn't say anything at all. It can be seen that he doesn't care about grandson's affairs at all!"

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he took a peek at Grandpa Huang, seeing that Grandpa Huang was about to explode with his anger, so he hurriedly added another sentence.

"Only the second uncle loves me dearly, and he wants to avenge me even if he wants to. You don't want to help me all the time, but you still want to kill him. Doesn't your old conscience hurt, woo woo woo..."

"We'll kill you!"

Lao Zhu swung his whip and cracked and crackled for a while, but all the hits hit the ground, so he must have vented his anger.

After all, no matter how angry this grandson is, he is still close. He is so broken that he doesn't even have a place to take regret medicine.

"You rebellious grandson!"

"It's not that we don't want to help, it's that your second uncle committed a big crime!"

"Even if we are the emperor, we can't disregard the laws of the country and turn black and white!"

Lao Zhu reprimanded Nisun a few words, saw that Nisun was still stuck in the neck, and looked dissatisfied, so he kicked Nisun's small table angrily, and then ran to the harem to vent his anger.

He was afraid that if he stayed in Qianqing Palace again, he would not be able to help ordering someone to hang this rebellious grandson and beat him.

Seeing that Lao Zhu was gone, Zhu Yunxi quickly got up from the ground, drank the soup and medicine in one breath, and ran to the side hall to have a full meal.

He had a hunch that this time his contest with Grandpa Huang would last for a long time, and he might not be able to survive this old man if he didn't eat and drink enough!

As soon as Zhu Yunxi had eaten here, some dog legs ran to Lao Zhu to deliver a letter. Lao Zhu learned that the grandson had already eaten and drank the medicine, and complained to Concubine Guo Hui with a wry smile.

"Look at this rebellious grandson, how he has been used to him by you!"

Concubine Guo Hui rolled her eyes at Lao Zhu and said.

"What does this have to do with being a concubine? Isn't it because you feel sorry for your grandson and are unwilling to punish him?"

"However, it's a good thing that Yunxi's love is important. Think about it, if he can just sit back and let his uncle ignore him, will he be able to ignore our vassal king of Ming's crimes in the future?"

"Uh uh..."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he was stunned, and then his brows were tightly locked.

Concubine Guo Hui saw that the emperor began to weigh the pros and cons, so she stopped talking and even tried to control her breathing so as not to disturb the emperor with her gasping sound.

Concubine Guo Hui knew Lao Zhu very well, and knew what Lao Zhu's biggest concern was.

The matter of Chang Sheng is very difficult, but for the emperor, the twenty or so sons he had in this life are his greatest concerns.

If Zhu Yunxi doesn't even save his second uncle, then he, as a grandfather, has to ponder over whether his precious grandson can show mercy outside the law when his own sons break the law of the country in the future.

It took Lao Zhu a long while before he sighed leisurely.

"Chang Sheng is such a fool!"

"We can't wait to kill him with one knife!"

"But you're right. It's a good thing that our eldest grandson values ​​love and righteousness. As a grandfather, we can't chill this child's heart!"

Concubine Guo Hui patted her ass in a timely manner.

"The emperor is holy!"

Old Zhu said angrily when he heard the words.

"What the hell is Shengming?"

"If we were Shengming, we wouldn't be in a dilemma by you and that Ni Sun!"

Concubine Guo Hui stuck out her tongue guiltily when she heard the words, and hurriedly bowed to Lao Zhu, apologizing to Lao Zhu.

"The concubine is guilty, let the emperor punish me!"

Lao Zhu had long held back his anger, picked up Guo Hui on the spot when he heard this, and threw her heavily on the bed.

"We have to punish you!"

"You rascal, you dare to interfere in the government affairs, let's see how we deal with you tonight!"

"what……"

"My lord, please forgive me!"

([-] words omitted here)

An hour later, Lao Zhu was lying on the bed panting heavily, but Guo Hui hugged Lao Zhu cheerfully, coquettishly asking Lao Zhu to give him an answer.

"My lord, the courtiers and concubines have been punished as well. You should say how you plan to deal with the second son of the Chang family this time, right?"

Old Zhu said angrily when he heard the words.

"Don't get cheap and behave yourself, you rascal!"

"Are you being punished?"

"You are rewarded!"

"The concubine thanked the emperor for the reward, hehehe..."

"Why don't you reward your concubine again, my lord?"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he was instantly frightened, and quickly changed the subject.

"Capital crimes can be forgiven, but living crimes cannot be forgiven!"

"Besides, that grandson Ni is too irritating, we have to worry him for a few days, lest he think our grace is too easy, and don't take our emperor seriously!"

Concubine Guo Hui didn't speak for Zhu Yunxi this time. The narrow-minded Concubine Guo Hui said, I haven't asked for an explanation for the ink on my face!

"Ok!"

"Xiao Xie is really too capricious!"

"When he recovers from his injury, the emperor must give him a severe lesson!"
