Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 14754 Punishment

Zuo Qiuwen said, "Come here, go to the Prince's Sixth Office and call the person in the video. If they resist, kill them on the spot." Immediately, several palace guards responded and went to arrest people. Although these palace guards wore different clothes, their real identities were actually secret guards. Each of them was very powerful. In addition, they were ordered to go to the Prince's Sixth Office to arrest people, so of course no one dared to stop them. After the palace guards left, Zuo Qiuwen continued, "Decai, call a few people to see if the video that Zhang Aiqing took out was true or false." Decai responded and left immediately.

The video can be faked, of course, there are people who can tell whether the video is fake or not, and it is really too easy for the royal family to find such a person. Everyone in the hall was silent, they were all waiting for the result. They all knew that this matter was very important and related to the innocence of the prince. If the prince really did this, then his position as prince would be in danger.

Soon, a man in military uniform was brought to the main hall by the palace guards. When he arrived, he immediately saluted Zuo Qiuwen and said, "I, the sixth prince, lead the fifth team captain Tie Shisheng to see Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be well and safe."

Zuo Qiuwen nodded, and then said, "Tie Shisheng, I want to ask you, has the prince ever given you a poison pill?"

Tie Shisheng was stunned, then he quickly said: "No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seldom comes to the Crown Prince's Sixth House, and I have hardly seen the Crown Prince. How could the Crown Prince give me any poison pill? It's impossible." When he said this, his expression was a little anxious, but the more he looked like this, the more others thought that there was something wrong with him, and almost everyone knew what was going on.

Zuo Qiuwen looked at Tie Shisheng's appearance, then snorted coldly and said, "Whether it is true or not, we will know after testing. Come, take him down for testing." The guards in front of the palace responded and immediately walked forward and took the man away. The man's face showed a panic expression, but his body was restrained by the guards in front of the palace. He could not struggle or speak.

Then Decai came in with a few people. Those people immediately saluted Zuoqiuwen. Zuoqiuwen waved his hand and said, "I called you here today to let you see whether this video is real or fake. Remember, watch it carefully. Go to the next room and watch it carefully." After that, Zuoqiuwen turned around and glanced at Zhang Ruyi, and Zhang Ruyi gave the video to those people.

Those people responded, took the video and left, but Zuoqiu Wen, at this time, sat there quietly, without saying a word, and the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was waiting for the final result. After a while, those who watched the video came back. They saluted towards Zuoqiu Wen, and one of them said, "Your Majesty, we have seen it. This video is real. The time, the scenes, and the characters are all fake." As soon as he said this, the people in the hall were in an uproar. This almost confirmed that Zuoqiu Zheng had indeed dealt with those people. How could they not be surprised?

Zuo Qiuwen nodded but did not say anything. He just waved his hand. Decai led those people out of the hall, while Zuo Qiuwen still sat there without saying a word. After a while, the guards in front of the hall came directly into the hall and brought the people in. The man knelt in the hall with a deathly pale face. The guards in front of the hall raised a report directly up, and Decai immediately went to take the report and handed it to Zuo Qiuwen.

Zuoqiu Wen took the report and took a look at it. Then he shook it and the report shattered into pieces. Then he looked at Zuoqiu Zheng with his eyes like lightning. When Zuoqiu Zheng saw Zuoqiu Wen's eyes, he knelt down with a plop. Then Zuoqiu Wen said, "The prince disregarded the etiquette and law and deceived the emperor. He is ordered to go to Fuguang Star and serve as the governor of Fuguang Star. He is not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned."

Zuoqiuwen's words stunned everyone, and then everyone understood what Zuoqiuwen meant. Zuoqiuwen did not punish the prince by saying that the prince used poison to control officials with evil intentions, but he said that he disregarded rites and laws and deceived the emperor. Such a charge was to give face to the prince, and also to prevent outsiders from knowing what the prince had done. It was to maintain the stability of the empire. Of course, it was also for the face of the royal family. After all, if such a thing were to be made public, the royal family would lose all face, so Zuoqiuwen used such a charge.

Although it seemed that the punishment for the prince was not too severe, he was just sent to Fuguang Star to be a governor, and his status was still very high, and his position as prince was not deprived. But everyone knew that the prince had no chance. He was far away from the political center of the capital, and he was finished. When the storm of this incident was over, Zuoqiu Wen would find a reason to directly deprive the prince of his position. By that time, there would be no impact. Everyone was a political veteran, how could they not know the twists and turns here, so they were not surprised. On the contrary, they thought that this was better, because if this matter was too big, it might cause the governors below to be in danger. At that time, the empire would fall into turmoil, which was not what they wanted to see. So they had no objection to Zuoqiu Wen's punishment of Zuoqiu Zheng, because they knew very well that this was the best result. Although the prince still existed in name, he was actually finished. Zuo Qiuzheng knelt there in despair, not saying a word. At this time, Decai said, "Your Highness, thank you." Zuo Qiuzheng seemed to come back to his senses at once. He kowtowed to Zuo Qiuzheng and said, "Your son obeys your order and thanks you."

Zuoqiu Wen flicked his sleeves, stood up and walked towards the back hall. Decai shouted, "Dismiss the court." As he spoke, the ministers all bowed to Zuoqiu Wen and said, "Farewell, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be well." Zuoqiu Wen left without even looking back.

After Zuoqiu Wen left, the ministers stood up and walked out in twos and threes. Some of them even glanced at Zuoqiu Zheng, but there was a hint of gloating in their eyes, while more of them showed a hint of disdain.

After everyone left, Zuo Qiuzheng stood up, and then walked out of the hall as if he had lost his soul, and got into the car with the help of Fu Sheng, and then the car drove directly to the Prince's Mansion. Others also noticed this situation. When Zuo Qiuzheng returned to the Prince's Mansion, he was also helped down. He seemed to have no sense of the outside world. Not long after they entered the Prince's Mansion, Eunuch Decai brought people to the East Palace.

The East Palace was in chaos at this time. Jia Yu and his companions had no idea what was going on. They were just about to go ask what was going on when they saw Eunuch Decai suddenly come to the East Palace. As soon as he arrived, he said with a gloomy face, "Summon the Crown Prince to receive the decree."

Fu Sheng immediately helped Zuo Qiuzheng out of the room, and then helped Zuo Qiuzheng to kneel down. Eunuch Decai then opened the imperial edict and said: "The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, decrees: Crown Prince Zuo Qiuzheng, has disregarded rites and laws, and deceived the emperor and acted recklessly. He is ordered to go to Fuguangxing and serve as the governor of Fuguangxing. He is not allowed to return without an imperial edict. There is also a eunuch in the crown prince's mansion, Fu Sheng, who has bewitched the crown prince and committed treason. He is ordered to be beaten to death by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Your Highness the Crown Prince, accept the edict." After Decai finished speaking, he looked at Zuo Qiuzheng with cold eyes without a trace of emotion.

At this time, Zuo Qiuzheng seemed to have come to his senses. He kowtowed and said, "I accept your command and thank you." Decai handed the imperial edict to Zuo Qiuzheng. Then he waved his hand and several eunuchs came out. They directly handed Fusheng out and started to punish him with a caning.

Fu Sheng did not resist or make a sound, and was beaten with sticks one after another. His body was soon covered with blood. At this time, Zuo Qiuzheng suddenly rushed in front of Fu Sheng, stretched out his hand to block the sticks, then he looked at Decai and said, "If you want to kill him, kill me first?" Decai glanced at Zuo Qiuzheng, then he sneered, "Your Highness, why are you doing this?" Zuo Qiuzheng said coldly, "Let him go." Decai glanced at Zuo Qiuzheng, then he smiled calmly and said, "Okay, as Your Highness wishes, I will spare your life today." After that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out directly. The eunuchs who came with him also followed him out. As soon as they left, Zuo Qiuzheng immediately shouted, "Call the imperial physician." At the same time, he arranged for the eunuchs of the East Palace to carry Fu Sheng into the room, while Zuo Qiuzheng came to the study and called Jia Yu and others to the study.

And this matter soon spread to all the major families. All the major families knew that the prince was really finished, otherwise, Zuoqiu Wen would not have sent Eunuch Decai to drive him away. They began to prepare for their own plans. Next, the few princes who stayed in the capital star would begin to compete for the position of prince, and the major families would of course support those princes. In addition, the major families also did another thing, which was to prepare to compete for the positions of the military governors who were poisoned by the Gu poison pill. Those people should not be military governors anymore. If they can't be military governors, the position will be vacant, and then they can compete for it. It can be said that all the major families are now rubbing their hands, ready for a big fight.

Zuoqiu Zheng was now sitting there with a pale face, but Jia Yu and the others didn't know what had happened yet, and they all had panic expressions on their faces. At this time Zuoqiu Zheng said, "Now that things have come to this, I have to tell you. Before, I said that I wanted to take back the military power of the Prince's Sixth Army, but you didn't allow it. I was very dissatisfied, so I did it myself. It happened that when Liu Yiwu was trading with the people from the Tyrant World on Xipu Star, he got an elixir. This elixir is called Gu Du Dan. People who take this elixir will be poisoned and need to take an antidote every six months. They will also listen to me more and more. I used this elixir to control some officers in the Prince's Sixth Army, so I was equivalent to controlling the Prince's Sixth Army." When Jia Yu and the others heard what Zuoqiu Zheng said, their faces changed drastically. They never thought that Zuoqiu Zheng would do this. They had tried to dissuade him in every way at the beginning, but it seemed that Zuoqiu Zheng really didn't listen. At this time, he reached out for the military power. Isn't this just seeking death? Their faces all looked very ugly. (End of this chapter)
