Fast Travel: A Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 58 Oath and Avalokitesvara Competing Performance (23)

"Look at mine, look at the last part of the confession of Ji Wen, mother and son, it is the last part of their plan, how to explain Niu Yunxia's death in dystocia.

After reading it, you will understand why I said that! "

The Supreme Emperor didn't intentionally whet people's appetites, and after sighing, he handed the record in his hand to Tu Minghui.

Of course, Tu Minghui hurriedly took it respectfully.

I looked up curiously.

After a while, he also reacted and said with a smile:

"Their mother and son really want to die, and they even want to blame the death of Niu Yunxia, ​​who was killed by them in the plan, on Pomegranate God. The guy who slanders the gods is really daring.

I'm afraid this is the key to God Pomegranate's move. "

"Father, I think this matter is easy to handle. Although the Pomegranate God has not been formally conferred, he has already been counted as the righteous God of Sheji. There are countless women in the world who have been favored by him. Ji Wen's mother and son are so obscene. An act of God, even if it has not been carried out, is a great treason.

But it's really not appropriate to give death directly.

Going to Jue exile, I was not very happy.

Therefore, I think, if you don't give the right to choose to the Ji family, you can say that the title can be replaced by death. If you want to save Ji Wen's life, the title will be gone. If you want to keep the title, you must first let Ji Wen succeed the title. He didn't have a title at the time, so it was quite reasonable to die. "

"There shouldn't be too much controversy among the people, especially after the last paragraph of his plan is revealed.

People who want to get the gift of the pomegranate god.

It was enough to drown him with one mouthful of saliva. "

Why is the title honorable? In addition to the privileges and benefits of various aspects, the most important thing is to die for him. Generally speaking, as long as the crime does not touch the emperor's bottom line, the title can be used to cover a crime.

Of course, this is only generally speaking.

Whether you can die for him or not has something to do with the emperor himself. When you meet a big brother like Emperor Hongwu, even if you have a gold medal for avoiding death, it is useless. If you want you to die, you have to die.

In addition, operations such as conspiracy and rebellion.

It is certainly impossible to use the title to replace death.

But for general crimes, the title of earl is definitely enough to offset, but there are two normal situations at this time, that is, some people are willing to use the title to replace death, and some people are not, but generally speaking, this is not the case. People choose by themselves, and it depends on the emperor's will.

If it is a king of the opposite sex, a title that has already threatened the imperial power, the emperor will of course try to make them use the title to offset the crime as soon as he finds an excuse, cut the title and so on.

Never miss an opportunity to weaken them.

But if there are some minor titles, it doesn't matter if they are there or not, then the elders of the family can of course operate a little bit. They would rather send people to jail, exile, or even die, to keep the titles.

After all, for these small families, the title is almost the foundation of their family. Once the title is cut off, they may not be able to gain a foothold in the capital.

It is precisely because there are such unspoken rules in the current dynasty.

Only Ji Wen's concubine brother is willing to cooperate with Niu Yunxia. After all, if he helps out, and ends up gaining nothing except losing his title, then why should he bother? Clan elders, they had to beat him madly first.

"Don't you think that this is your original idea? There is a long-standing practice on this matter. You don't need to say it so bluntly. Just let Dai Quan pass the decree."

Seeing his son Tu Minghui's somewhat complacent expression, the Supreme Emperor immediately complained bluntly.

Although Tu Minghui didn't know that there was a long-standing practice of doing this, he didn't argue with his father. He would find out about what he didn't know, so in the end he just apologized and said that he still needed to learn, and then told Dai Quan Go to pass the decree, and tell him to go to the Ministry of Households to bring the officials in charge of the succession of the title, and settle this matter early, so that they don't have to worry about it later.

Hey, yes, the inheritance of ordinary titles is basically managed by the Ministry of Households. After all, the Ministry of Households mainly manages household registrations. Inheritance of titles is essentially a type of household registration. The royal prince, the emperor will intervene.

So it seems that the succession of the title is managed by the emperor himself, but in fact, the emperor has no time to control the succession of the title of everyone, and only he cares about it.

The inheritance of ordinary titles is managed by the Ministry of Households.

The royal title is inherited by the clan.

At best, the emperor cared occasionally, or intervened once or twice when he encountered some favorable or even unfavorable people.

There is no way, the rules are the rules, but the emperor is indeed above all the rules, he does not obey the rules, he changes his son's title, title, etc., or changes the successor of a certain duke, the household department and the clan There is also an arm that can't twist the thigh, so I can only recognize it.

……

Originally, the people at Dali Temple thought they would have to wait for a long time, and even today the imperial decree might not be issued, but they didn't expect it to be less than an hour.

Dai Quan came back.

He also brought back two officials of the household department, several small officials of the household department, the yellow book of household registration of the Ji family, and the imperial decree.

The next step is almost the same as the previous process.

Anyway, kneel down first to listen to the decree.

The difference is that after listening to the decree this time, many people were dumbfounded, because most people did not expect that the emperor would use blasphemy as an entry point to sentence Ji Wen to death.

Looking at the officials from the Ministry of Officials who followed, His Majesty's intention was already quite obvious, that is to let those Ji family elders quickly choose someone to inherit Ji Wen's title.

Then Ji Wen will be convicted of the previous crimes.

Coupled with the crime of blaspheming the righteousness of the country and the country, he was sentenced to death.

Although some people thought it was inappropriate to do so, after all, it was an imperial decree, and both the Supreme Emperor and the new emperor agreed, so naturally no one dared to comment, so the matter was finalized like this.

Followed by the execution of the will.

And leave with Dai Quan.

All the nobles present discussed in private.

"Wouldn't it be inappropriate to add the crime of blasphemy to the righteous gods? Doesn't it seem that Your Majesty and the others mean that they don't ask the common people to ask ghosts and gods? Strange!"

"Ordinary blasphemy is of course fine, and no one said anything, but don't forget, the imperial decree clearly mentions Sheji Zhengshen, the so-called Sheji Zhengshen, that is the god that needs to be sacrificed when His Majesty sacrifices to heaven!

Such as Haotian, such as the Five Emperors!
Let me tell you that you are ignorant, let me tell you this, those Guanyin Buddhas that we usually worship are not the righteous gods of the country, not even the Jade Emperor. It was later eliminated, and now there are only nine righteous gods of Sheji worshiped, namely Haotian and the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. "

"Isn't the Pomegranate God also counted?"

"It doesn't count now, but Your Majesty has already set the procedure for this year's ceremony. The most important point is to designate the Pomegranate God as the new God of Sheji, but it has not yet been formally conferred.

But if His Majesty insists it is.

That can't be refuted..."

"It seems that Ji Wen really provoked everyone's anger. Even His Majesty can't stand it and wants him to die!"

"Wait, have you ever considered that the so-called crime of blasphemy is not an excuse, but a real thing, and even the God of Pomegranate was involved in it. In this way, Niu Yunxia's prophetic dream is reasonable."

"This……"

"Isn't the end of Ji Wen's plan just to blame Pomegranate God for Niu Yunxia's death in childbirth?"

"Mother, it's really possible..."
