Playful Queen

Chapter 285

The sky had just turned white, and before Chu Yang's appearance was seen, the ministers had already entered the palace, crossed the three white jade arched bridges, and rushed to the morning court.

In the Golden Luan Palace, Zi Yechen was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and Zi Yechen walked up to the dragon chair with steady steps. He wore a purple gold crown on his head. His handsome face was as cold as a lake with his tightly pursed lips, and his eyes were as dark as deep. In the lake, the dazzling light flickered unsteadily, only the turbulent waves at the bottom of the eyes were dark and turbulent.

As soon as the lower ministers saw the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, they all immediately knelt down and kowtowed and said in unison, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Pingshen." The voice was as cold as snow in February, and the chill was overwhelming.

In fact, why didn't he know what happened in the early court today? About the fake edict, he asked Yun Feiyang to investigate it five years ago, and he also knew something, because Li'er didn't intend to pursue it, but now someone deliberately took it As far as the matter is concerned, what is their motivation? It is that his recent actions against the former court have made them flustered, and they should start to lose their temper.

"Report if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do."

Xiao Quanzi's shrill voice pierced the sky above the hall, the air was as cold as ice, and everyone couldn't help but gasp under the emperor's aura.

The ministers at the bottom stood up, and everyone looked at each other. The emperor's violent Ling Han and the others saw it, and the queen's behavior in the hall made them even more frightened. It's just that this matter is of great importance and must be Say.

Nangong Jin was sitting in a wheelchair, her handsome face was serious at this moment, he had already received the news from the emperor called Zhuifeng last night, and it was about the false will of the empress, these officials were definitely not talking about it in empty words In the vernacular, it seems that he came prepared, thinking of this, his brows frowned.

Shangshu Xu Jie has already walked to the center of the hall in a hurry, then bowed his head respectfully, and slowly reported: "Your Majesty, I think that the clan's government should file a case for investigation at the time of this fake edict."

"My majesty, please be aware of the details. If this edict is really fake, then someone has ulterior motives." Dian Ge University scholar also hurriedly came out and said.

Yu Shaobao also came out and said, sonorously and forcefully: "Your Majesty, I'd rather believe it or not, and hope the Emperor thinks twice."

As soon as this was said, all the ministers knelt down and said in unison: "Please think twice, Your Majesty."

Zi Yechen's face was ugly and cold, with murderous intent all over his body, he patted the dragon chair vigorously with his big white hands, and said as calmly as possible: "Submit any evidence you have, don't talk nonsense here!"

"Your majesty, the ministers are definitely not talking nonsense. This news really came from the palace." Xu Jie continued. Suddenly a father-in-law sent a letter last night. After he opened the letter, he was really shocked. According to the instructions in the letter, he hurriedly summoned all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to discuss this matter together, and finally everyone unanimously decided to report this matter to the emperor.

Zi Yechen was silent, domineering, violent and cold all over his body. Looking at the people who were about to move, he saw that Admiral Liu stood up and handed over a copy of the evidence. It was just a few ministers who heard about the incident last night and asked the emperor to discuss it. , recently is the time to really resolve this matter in the court.

"Your Majesty, this is the evidence. I have found two people who followed the late Emperor back then. They can both prove that the edict is false. Please invite the Emperor to summon them to meet."

Zi Yechen didn't speak, one hand held the memorial tightly, and the other hand waved casually.

I saw an old man in white cloth walking in slowly. Although his complexion was slightly thin and pale, he exuded a strong and elegant atmosphere, while another middle-aged man in gray cloth walked in. , with a thin figure that looks a little weak, but with his face, there is a strong smell of a scholar.

The two knelt down at the same time, their kowtowing postures were extremely skillful, and one could tell at a glance that this person should have been an official of the court before,
"Grassman Cao Zhi, Ni Jing sees the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

With just one glance, any veteran in the court would know who these two were. The old man in white was one of the three personal physicians who were close to the late emperor. They were all extremely skilled in medicine, and they were all leaders in the imperial hospital.

Back then, the late emperor had to take these three with him even when he went to the Summer Resort, but later on, all three of them...disappeared and there was no news of them.

Not to mention Ni Jing, he is the late emperor's close secretary of the Ministry of Culture, he can imitate the late emperor's handwriting almost exactly, so he is deeply favored by the late emperor, and he can freely enter and leave the emperor's study room, some of the previous imperial edicts are still memorials Both the imperial decree and the imperial decree were written by the first emperor, and he was responsible for writing them. The first emperor directly stamped the jade seal. This matter was known to all civil and military officials in the court, but later, after the first emperor passed away, this person resigned and left the palace. They are no longer bothering about the court.

However, these two people appeared at the same time.

"Get up." Zi Yechen said coldly, of course he knew who the two people in front of him were, but because of their appearance, Zi Yechen's heart sank: "How do you two prove that the edict is fake? ?”

"Back to the emperor, when the first emperor was seriously ill, only our three imperial physicians were present. When the empress dowager came, the emperor had already passed away, so Caomin was very sure that the emperor at that time would not be able to hand over the will that had already been made. For the Empress Dowager, the three major imperial physicians of that year can all testify, but later, for some reason, someone chased us and began to hunt down us, and the three major imperial physicians are only grass-roots people who survive in the world." Cao Zhi told what happened back then , if he hadn't kept his name incognito for so many years, maybe even he wouldn't be able to live to this day.

Immediately afterwards, Ni Jing opened his mouth to state the events of the year, lowered his head, and said: "Your Majesty, this will is indeed a fake one, and it was forged by the minister back then."

As soon as these words fell, everyone present was visibly froze, as if time had been frozen, what, this will was forged by Ni Jing?This is a charge of beheading, how could he suddenly come out and say it.

Zi Yechen's face was covered with frost, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, that smile was like a sharp ice knife: "Ni Jing, do you know what you are talking about?"

Ni Jing couldn't help but knelt down immediately, and then immediately explained: "Your Majesty, the grassroots know that forgery is a capital crime, and they also know that the crime is unforgivable, but today the grassroots must tell the truth no matter what. Back then, when the emperor was still critically ill, Prime Minister Shen and the Queen once approached Cao Min, and he asked Cao Min to write a fake will for him. Cao Min immediately refused, but he did not expect that Prime Minister Shen would arrest my family and threaten Cao Min. The woman was eager and had no malicious intentions, so Cao Min had no choice but to help him write a fake will. Finally, taking advantage of the chaos of the emperor's death, he sneaked into the emperor's study, sealed the jade seal, and This false imperial decree was placed on the emperor's table, and in the end I peeked at the empress dowager and took it away."
