No.90 Chang Wu Suffering

The sudden departure of Emperor Cheng Wu also made all the officials see clearly the emperor's intention to support Zhu Tianxiang.In order to get rid of the corrupt system in Dafeng's officialdom, Emperor Chengwu had to do this heavy hand.He knows that no matter how good the decree is, someone must implement it.

Not only were there many factions in the official circles of the Dafeng Dynasty, but also intricate human relations.Even if Wang Taifu is asked to do this job, he will save the face of his disciples and civil servants.Doing so would likely provoke a mutiny among the military attachés.Therefore, Emperor Chengwu counted and counted, and only Zhu Tianjiang could bear this sharp knife.

It is a big event for the emperor to go out of the city. It has never happened before without any officials.The departure of Emperor Cheng Wu cast a strange atmosphere on the capital.

Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Pan Zigang, Minister of the Ministry of Households, Feng Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, Li Hong, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Martin Tian and others, all gathered in Prince Jing's mansion.At this time, the biggest officials in the capital were discussing what to do with frowning faces.

"Prince Jing, I have handed over all the papers for the participation of officials under the Ministry of Punishment. Now that the emperor is gone, how should I explain to the subordinates?" Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Martin said in a dilemma.

Martin Tian is a distant relative of the queen. After the Great War in Beijing, Emperor Chengwu deprived the old queen of her rights. In order to balance the harem, he promoted the distant relative of the queen to the position of chief officer of the Ministry of Punishment.

"My lord, don't just listen to it, the eldest prince's [-] elite soldiers have already entered the city. If there is chaos, what should I, the admiral of the nine sects, do?" Chu Yun also asked worriedly.

Prince Jing raised his eyelids, "My lords, are you planning to stay at my place tonight? If so, I will arrange guest rooms for you."

Li Hong smiled bitterly, "I said King Jing, once the emperor leaves, you will be the biggest in the capital. If something happens, you will lose face."

King Jing glared, "What big event can happen in Langlang Qiankun, I don't believe how high these little monkeys can jump. I said, my lords, don't ask anything. Once the emperor leaves, let's see with our eyes and ears." Listen. As for the rest, let them take their course."

When the adults heard this, since Prince Jing had said so, anyway, he was responsible for the sky falling.Speaking of this, everyone no longer insisted, and they all left and returned home.

The eldest prince Xuan Ming had already mobilized five hundred soldiers and was about to go to the Security Court to make a big fuss, smashing the courtyard and robbing people, but was stopped by the second prince.

"Brother, you can't be so impulsive. The emperor has already shown his attitude when he left Beijing today. If the elder brother goes to the Security Court, I'm afraid it will arouse great resentment in the heart of the emperor."

"###, are you afraid? That kid Zhu Tianjiang has what ability to bully me. If I don't stand up for Gu Zhitong, I'm afraid the hearts will be lost." The eldest prince looked at the second prince Xuan coldly. Can.

Zhu Tianjiang's first knife was aimed at his Xuan Ming's people, besides, his own mother even specifically sought out Mrs. Guo.Xuan Ming's loss of face is big enough, if he doesn't get back his face, Xuan Ming knows that his prestige among officials will soon be wiped out.

"Brother, it's not that we're afraid of him. We should also pay attention to strategy. Since we want to fight, we need to let the civil and military officials see what will happen if we fight against us." Xuan Can said viciously.

Xuan Ming was taken aback, "###, what's your plan?"

Xuan Can smiled slightly, "Hmph, let's do what Zhu Tianjiang did before. Have you forgotten how he captured your soldiers a while ago? Father is not in the capital, so it may not be a big deal for us." Bad thing. Don't forget, according to the ancestral system, the queen's mother's ceremony is the world, and the mother's decree is also very powerful."

The First Prince looked at Xuan Can and nodded calmly.Although Xuan Ming is reckless, he is not mentally retarded.With his status as the prince and the head of the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, he could smash the yamen and rob people, but he would definitely get reprimanded by his father if he did so.Xuan Ming also sees through that he has lost the qualification to be the crown prince, and his father wants to let him hold the military power to protect the future emperor, so he dares to act recklessly.He felt that even if Zhu Tianxiang was killed by mistake, he would be thrown into limbo and would have to be activated again after a while.Because after Zhou Yantian's rebellion incident, Emperor Cheng Wu understood that at the critical moment, it was his own son who reassured him.

In the early morning of the next day, all civil and military officials did not go to the court, but all flocked to the clan mansion.Because Emperor Chengwu left a decree, the emperor is not in the capital, so he can ask King Jing for instructions on important matters.And the ministers of the six ministries assisted King Jing in dealing with emergency affairs.

Prince Jing was surrounded by all the officials, and his brain hurt from the noise.Not only him, but even the six ministers were surrounded by a bunch of officials.King Jing wiped his sweat and raised his head to look around. Through the cracks of people, he found that the old lady Fu Wang Bingkun was drinking tea leisurely, and there was no one disturbing him.

King Jing raised his whip and knocked on the desk, "It's his grandma, stop arguing! This is the clan mansion, not the court hall."

King Jing let out a roar, and the hall of the clan mansion fell silent immediately. King Jing glanced at everyone, "I said you guys, there is no use in arguing with this king. Mrs. Wang is the guardian of the Ancha Yuan." Minister, that kid Zhu Tianjiang is under his control, why don't you look for Wang Taifu and look for this king."

Wang Bingkun was so frightened that the teacup in Wang Bingkun's hand almost didn't break when he said a word.He came here today just to see the excitement. The old lady Fu has been upright all her life, and he is usually the one who kneels down and writes letters.Arriving now, seeing the other ministers panicking, the old matriarch felt an indescribable comfort in his heart.

Wang Bingkun stood up with a wave of his bamboo pole, and before he could defend himself, he was surrounded by the officials.

"Old teacher, you have to make decisions for the students~!"

"My lord, if Zhu Tianjiang continues like this, I will be in great danger~!"

"Zhu Tian has brought disaster to the country and the people, my lord should lead us and other courtiers to face the saint in Yanshan~!"

The ministers of the six ministries secretly extended their thumbs to Prince Jing, this gesture freed them.Li Hong, Feng Jing and the others looked at Mrs. Wang gloatingly, and said to themselves that who made you so full that you must go to be a high-ranking ginseng, you deserve it!

"Quiet~ Sujing~ The old minister is just a supervisor and has no right to govern the Security Court. Don't listen to Prince Jing's nonsense~!" Surrounded by so many people, Wang Taifu felt his chest was suffocated. Wang Taifu gasped heavily, and his voice became weak stand up.

While everyone was arguing, an official from the clan's government ran in from outside the door.Seeing the noise in the hall, the officer raised his voice and shouted, "My lord, the Ancha Yuan has issued another decree!"

When the officials in the hall heard this, they immediately forgot about the quarrel.Everyone stared wide-eyed, ready to hear what that goddamn Zhu Tianjiang was going to do again.

Prince Jing rolled his eyes, and thought to himself, why are you not arguing anymore?Prince Jing nodded, "Say!"

The official hurriedly said, "The second decree of the Public Security Bureau said that it extended the time of the first decree for three days in order to stabilize the unity of the court. During these three days, officials, civil and military, can still hand over corrupt silver. , the Security Council will let the past go."

Prince Jing glanced left and right, "Just a few words, is it over?"

"Uh~ it's over." The officer was taken aback, and quickly replied.

Prince Jing waved his hand and told the officials to step back.When all the officials in the hall heard the news, they all began to make small calculations, thinking whether to reluctantly give up a sum of money.Zhu Tianxiang extended the time limit for three days, which happened to be the time for Emperor Cheng Wu to leave.Could it be that this is what the emperor meant?

Everyone seemed to understand why Zhu Tianjiang dared to act so boldly. It turned out that the emperor wanted to take them down.Having figured this out, all the ministers stood up and said goodbye without further delay, preparing to go back and pay some taels of silver.It is estimated that it will be handed over this time, if it is less than [-] yuan, it will not be able to pay.

King Jing and Taifu Wang sighed and shook their heads at the same time, it is really a royal tragedy that the Dafeng Dynasty used these people.Prince Jing felt that if he didn't take pains to launch the New Deal, even if the two countries were not wiped out, sooner or later they would be overwhelmed by internal friction.Wang Taifu originally criticized Zhu Tianjiang's actions, but after seeing the faces of the officials, he felt that what Zhu Tianjiang did was very right.

Even when all the officials entered the clan's mansion to quarrel, Zhu Tianjiang was not idle.Immediately ordered Zhu Yi, Xia Qing, Chang Wu and the others to lead fifty officials each to the mansion of Wang Shangqing and Gu Zhitong to search for money.

Ordinarily, these people ransacked their homes with official orders, so it is impossible to encounter any trouble.After all, the owners of these three mansions are all being tried in the Security Court, and the three mansions are already on the verge of being punished.However, Chang Wu was ambushed in Gu Zhitong's mansion.

When Chang Wu led his men to guard Gu Zhitong's mansion to seize the stolen goods, Zhu Tianxiang didn't ask Zhu Si to make any further arrangements.After all, Zhu Si's team cannot be exposed, and they have to hide for a while after the small test yesterday.

Didn't you know that the eldest prince had already led his troops to ambush in Gu Zhitong's mansion, Chang Wu would definitely not catch him without a fight when he saw the ambush.The eldest prince not only had a large number of people, but also followed several palace guards.

Chang Wu's gun was not a vegetarian, he stabbed six of the First Prince's soldiers, and was about to jump over the wall and flee to the Security Court to report.However, he was shot in the thigh by an arrow from a palace guard, fell down the wall and was caught by everyone.

The eldest prince Xuan Ming looked at the taken down official of the Security Court with a dark face.In this scuffle, more than 20 of his own soldiers were injured, but three officials from the Ancha Yuan were beheaded in the scuffle.

"Prince, there is a gold medal from the emperor in the Anchayuan. If you do this, my lord will not let you go." Chang Wu looked at the prince angrily, one leg was already stained red with blood.

The eldest prince was furious, "What kind of thing is Zhu Tianjiang? He dares to fight with this prince. He is looking for death." As he said that, Xuan Ming looked at his chief guard, "Zheng Shan, assassinating the prince, according to Dafeng's law, what is the crime?" ?”

"His Royal Highness, whoever assassinates the prince shall be executed according to the law!" Zheng Shan replied standing behind Chang Wu.

"It's too cheap to kill him. My prince wants to make that bastard Zhu Tianjiang dizzy with anger. If that bastard dares to take the initiative to provoke him, I will kill him." The eldest prince said coldly.

Zheng Shan understood Xuan Ming's meaning, drew out his waist knife, and stabbed Chang Wu's heel.Chang Wu screamed and fell to the ground with a plop.

"Kneel down and apologize to His Majesty, or I will make your life worse than death." Zheng Shan said cruelly.

Chang Wu gritted his teeth, "Wait a minute, I'm a five-rank general judge awarded by the emperor's order, kill me if you have the ability, or my lord will avenge me." Chang Wu hissed and shouted .

"Shua~" There was another flash of swords, and Chang Wu's tendons in both feet were severed.

"I'll give you another chance to climb over and beg for mercy!" Zheng Shan said jokingly.

"Damn it, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost." Chang Wu glared at Zheng Shan, his eyes wanting to burst into flames.

"Well, if you become a ghost, don't forget that my name is Zheng Shan!"

Zheng Shan swung his saber again, but this time he slashed at Chang Wu's wrist.With a click, one of Chang Wu's hands was cut off.Chang Wu twitched and sweated profusely, but he gritted his teeth and didn't cry out, staring at Zheng Shan coldly.

The eldest prince laughed excitedly. Amidst Xuan Ming's laughter, Zheng Shan slashed Chang Wu's body 21 times.Zheng Shan's strikes are very measured, every cut is not fatal, but it is the most painful part of the human body.

Seeing Chang Wu who had passed out, the corners of the eldest prince's eyes twitched, "Come here, send these people to the office of the Ministry of Punishment. Tell the inspector that this person assassinated His Highness, and no one will be released without my order." People! In addition, report this matter to all the yamen, so that everyone can see what will happen to the 'assassination' of the prince."

After the eldest prince finished speaking, with a cruel smile on his sinister face, he walked out of the gate of the Gu mansion under the protection of his own soldiers.

Zhu Tianxiang received the news immediately, and when he heard that Chang Wu was being carried to the office of the Ministry of Punishment bloody, Zhu Tianxiang burned with anger.

The clerk of the Ministry of Punishment saw that the eldest prince's people left so many officials and left, including a general judge who didn't know whether he was dead or alive, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly sent someone to report to the clan mansion.The people who went to report had just left the gate of the siya when they saw Zhu Tianxiang leading 300 people, holding official knives, walking towards the siya of the Ministry of punishment.

With a stern face, Zhu Tianjiang stopped at the gate of the si ya, looked at the plaque hanging high in the si ya of the Ministry of Punishment, and said coldly.

"Take our people away, no matter who it is, dare to stop~ kill!"
