Chapter 16 Another wave of cutting

Wang Chengen could indeed leave the palace because he had Zhu Youjian's permission.In Zhu Youjian's words, we need to cut another wave of leeks.

At first he didn't understand what cutting leeks was, but he didn't know until Zhu Youjian explained it.Thinking that a crop of leeks can grow another crop, Wang Chengen on the way out of the palace smiled knowingly, Long live is worthy of being the Son of Heaven, to be able to say such a vivid metaphor.

"My lord, we are here."

Sui's thoughts were interrupted by the eunuch's words from a young age, he opened the curtain and looked, and saw that Prince Xin's mansion had arrived.The excuse for coming out this time is to pick up things from Prince Xin's Mansion, and now he only needs to wait here for an hour.

Soon, all parties staring at Wang Chengen got the news.Some asked Xu Yingyuan to introduce them, and some came to them directly.

All of a sudden, carriages were parked at the gate of Prince Xin's Mansion, one by one sending invitations, waiting for Wang Chenen's call.

Wang Chengen was waiting in the side hall for the arrival of the leeks, no, the family members.

An hour later, Wang Chenen left Prince Xin's mansion on time and returned to the palace to return to his orders.

"how?"

Zhu Youjian sat behind the case and asked curiously.

"The servants met with more than 20 people. They received a total of more than 90 taels of banknotes. They all asked the servants to turn a blind eye."

"Hey, Wang Banban, why are these people so rich? I don't think I can cut all the leeks. You order someone to call the chief of the third department to see me."

"Yes!"

Two quarters of an hour later, Su Maoxiang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, Cao Sicheng, Zuodu Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Yao Shishen, Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple, stood in front of him.

"I summoned you to come here. You must already know what the so-called matter is?"

The three of them, who were already apprehensive, trembled when they heard the words.They more or less had some relationship with Wei Zhongxian, and they were afraid that they would be involved at this time.Su Maoxiang bit the bullet and replied:
"The minister has heard a little bit."

"Have heard about it? That means you know? Now that you know, you must know what I'm going to do. Don't think that I don't know that you have something to do with Wei Zhongxian. Keeping you is to let you make atonement. If you don't know the seriousness, just Don't blame me for not thinking about the friendship between monarch and minister."

Halfway through the conversation, the three of them fell to their knees in fright, shaking like chaff, and shouting in unison.

"You should die."

"Don't be damned, go back. Within ten days, I want to see the result."

"Yes! The minister is waiting to leave."

After finishing speaking, he got up from the ground, bowed and exited the hall.It was not until they left the palace that the three dared to speak.

"What should I do?" Cao Sicheng asked.

"What should we do? I think His Majesty is determined to be ruthless this time, everyone should be careful. If you pretend to be confused, His Majesty's sword will be cut on our heads!" Su Maoxiang said with a serious face.

"Oh, how come things suddenly changed!" Yao Shishen sighed.

"Since ancient times, it has been the emperor and the courtiers. Your Majesty called us into the palace, which means that he has no plans to move us. As long as this matter is done well, at least our lives will be safe. Think about it." After finishing speaking, Su Maoxiang rushed in He got out of his sedan chair and walked home.

In the warm pavilion, Zhu Youjian was still thinking about all kinds of things about this matter.He can't control people's hearts, he can only follow one standard, whoever works is useful.Now that you have money and soldiers, you can't even deal with a few disobedient eunuchs and ministers, so what are you doing?
Thinking of this, he thought of a person.

"Wang Banban, bring Tian Ergeng to me, I want to see him!"

Looking at Tian Ergeng who was shivering in thin clothes, Zhu Youjian asked curiously.

"How old are you this year?"

"Criminals are forty-two this year."

"Well, that's okay, it's not too much to call Wei Zhongxian a godfather. Much better than Gu Bingqian!"

"The minister deserves death."

Hearing Zhu Youjian's mocking words, Tian Ergeng trembled even more.I don't know whether to be cold or scared.

"Don't be dead forever, you only have one life. Do you still want it?"

Tian Ergeng was taken aback when he heard this, and then burst into ecstasy, and cried out excitedly.

"Woo~ I want it! Please Your Majesty!"

"Oh? So you are also afraid of death. I thought that you have killed so many people, and you have already ignored life and death. If this is the case, then I will ask you a question. Do you know how to bite people?"

"Yes! Your Majesty will let the minister bite whoever, and whoever the minister will bite."

"You are very smart!" Zhu Youjian nodded in satisfaction, looking at his quality and self-cultivation.Don't you need some people who can only talk about state affairs? "How much property do you have?"

"Your Majesty, I have accumulated some money over the years. But some time ago, Chang and Wei Zhongxian said they wanted to do a project, so they left most of the money with him, a total of 15 taels. I still have some at home, and most of the others are from my ancestors. Keep."

It doesn't sound like a fake.

"Go back, bite well, I will let you reinstate your post."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Tian Ergeng shouted excitedly.He knew that this test was half over, and whether he could survive would depend on whether he could grasp it.

From now on, I, Tian Ergeng, will be the Daming Royal Wangwang team!
From the beginning, Zhu Youjian didn't intend to kill Tian Ergeng, but just wanted to scare him.The eunuch party cannot be used, but can the Donglin party be used?Beating a dog is not to ban the dog, but to let the dog know the rules.Kill some and keep some.Whether it is the East and West Factory or Jinyiwei, they are all attached to him.In fact, if you talk about a party, it must be the imperial party. If you use it well, it will be a sword hanging over the heads of many foreign ministers!But the premise is that the person who owns this sword must be himself.

The interrogation of Xichang is in full swing.

Your Majesty is urging you very urgently. The factory guards must get the evidence, no matter what method is used.This was approved by His Majesty.

After their trial, they will be transferred to the Ministry of Punishment for processing, and then reviewed by Dali Temple, with the Supervisory Office supervising the entire process.Finally, His Majesty must approve.

Twelfth lunar month 24 sacrifice stove

The palace began to prepare for the New Year.At this time in previous years, palace family members and eunuchs began to put on auspicious gourds and python clothes, steamed dim sum happily together, set up Aoshan lanterns, set up fireworks, and set off fireworks at night until the seventeenth day of the first lunar month.But this year is a bit different, everything is being done, but the atmosphere is quite different from previous years.Female officials and eunuchs were constantly being taken away, and the rest of them were all cautious, lest they would involve themselves.

If there is still a peaceful place, it must be Kunning Palace.

The emperor and the empress were extremely affectionate and often dined together, which was unprecedented in all dynasties.It's not yet dinner time, and Zhou Yufeng is teaching Li Xiaohua embroidery.But it seemed that Li Xiaohua had no talent for this, and her hand started to bleed after just two pricks.It made Zhou Yufeng feel distressed.Perhaps because of the improved living conditions, Li Xiaohua has grown taller and her skin has become fairer. With a pair of bright big eyes, she looks extremely cute.

"Xiaohua, if you are stupid, don't learn these delicate tasks. It makes the queen feel distressed." Listening to the voice, Li Xiaohua knew who it was.Sure enough, looking back, His Majesty stood behind her at some point, and she and the Queen hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"You don't need to be too polite. I am a little tired after reviewing the memorial, so I just walk around." Zhu Youjian said with a smile.

After dinner, Zhu Youjian took everyone to the place where the fireworks were set up.The lanterns in Aoshan were already lit, and the eunuchs standing by lit the fireworks when they saw the emperor's arrival.

"I heard that when the fireworks are exploding in the sky, you can make a wish to the sky. It's very magical!" Zhu Youjian said to Zhou Yufeng and Li Xiaohua.

Li Xiaohua, who was concentrating on watching the fireworks, heard Zhu Youjian's words, put his palms together quickly, and murmured to the sky:
"God, bless my younger brother Li Rujing to grow up healthy and healthy, and bless our siblings to meet again."
