Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 473
As the saying goes, it is advisable to chase after the poor with remaining bravery, not to be known as the overlord.

Zhu Qiyu not only wanted to throw stones into the well and beat the dog in the water, but also completely sealed the mouth of the well so that the dog in the water could no longer climb up.

The three eunuchs Wang Jin, Hao Yi, and Ruan Xi led the three Zongzhengs, as well as Wang Wen, Wei Ji, and Xiao Weizhen, all the way to the Hall of Yinghua without hindrance.

Now all the eunuchs in the inner court are Zhu Qiyu's people, and it's up to the Empress Dowager Sun to see or disappear.

However, Wang Jin and the others still ordered people to report in a polite manner, and only after getting permission from Mrs. Sun did they bring everyone into the hall.

King Qin and others observed carefully, and saw that the palace was still filled with all kinds of rare treasures, and more than [-] eunuchs and maids were waiting carefully.

Qin Wang and others nodded secretly. The Yinghua Palace was not quite what they had imagined. It seemed that the emperor maintained the dignity that the royal family should have and did not abuse the Sun family.

Sun was assassinated by the young eunuch and was stabbed several times with scissors, but he was not fatal.Now the emperor sent people to force the palace, Sun chose to force the palace people to help him out, and sat down on the chair before calling everyone in.

Both Minshan and Soochow County Kings chose not to kneel, but just bowed their hands in salute.The others knelt down reluctantly.

After the warm greetings between the two parties, the King of Qin went about business, relaying the process of the relatives meeting to Sun in detail, and presented the testimony and confession to Sun for review.

After listening, Mrs. Sun just sighed heavily, but didn't intend to refute.

Sun clearly understood that the emperor sent so many prestigious clansmen and ministers here to negotiate a deal: he obediently pleaded guilty and subdued the law, and fulfilled the seven major crimes his father had listed for him.

In return, the emperor could let go of his father's great-grandson Sun Ming, as well as three concubine-grandsons and one concubine-granddaughter.

And the king of Min, the king of Soochow, the king of Qin, and the chief officials of the Sanfa Division are witnesses. Once the deal is concluded, both parties must not go back on their word. Otherwise, their reputation will be ruined and the world will be laughed at.

Qin Wang and others did not urge them, they just quietly waited for Sun's statement.

The Sun family has no choice, the Sun family is now detained outside the Meridian Gate, and Sun Ming is among them.Obviously, the emperor will be executed today.

As for Sun Ming's death or not, it all depends on Sun's thoughts.

If the Sun family pleaded not guilty, the emperor waved his hand, and all the heads of the Sun family fell to the ground.

If the Sun family pleads guilty obediently, the emperor can keep Sun Ming alive, and the rest of the Sun family can go on their way.

This is the emperor's conspiracy.

Sun sighed to everyone: "It's fine for me to plead guilty, and I have no other requirements. I just hope that the emperor can keep my nephew, Sun Ming, and the elder brother's three concubine sons. Save?"

King Min replied: "Don't worry, the queen mother. The emperor has something to say. The Marquis of Huichang has made meritorious service in the prosecution. He can make an allowance for him and keep him as an empress. I am willing to protect my family and life."

Mrs. Sun nodded: "Since my uncle is willing to be the guarantor, then I naturally have no reason not to believe it."

Soochow King, Qin Wang, Wang Wen and others also expressed their willingness to be guarantors.

Seeing this, Wang Jin gestured to Ruan Xi.Ruan Xi hurriedly ordered the palace servants to move the table and prepare the pen and paper.

Wang Jin and others knelt down respectfully and persuaded: "Please write the imperial decree in handwriting, the empress dowager, and tell the world."

Mrs. Sun frowned, what you said sounds good, didn't you just ask me to write the confession statement myself, after writing this so-called Yizhi, I will be completely ruined.

But there is no way, the knife is in the hands of others, and it is impossible not to write.

Trembling, Sun finished writing the letter of confession, and used the seal again.

Mrs. Sun was already injured, and she was physically and mentally exhausted after trying to hold on till now.After finishing writing, he signaled everyone to leave.

However, Wang Jin still knelt on the ground and asked for instructions: "I want to report to the Empress Dowager, since you have pleaded guilty, it is not appropriate to hold the seal of the Empress Dowager.

After His Majesty leads all the relatives and officials to accept the order of the Empress Dowager, he will decree to depose the Empress Dowager, and ask the Empress Dowager to hand over the seal to the servants now. "

Sun waved her hand feebly, signaling Wang Jin to take Yuxi away.

After finishing their errands, everyone saluted and left, turned and left.

When they reached the door, Sun suddenly called out to everyone: "How will the emperor deal with this palace?"

Everyone turned around and looked at each other, no one was willing to answer this question.

Mrs. Sun snorted coldly: "Wang Jin, you can just tell the truth. At this point, there is no need to hide it anymore. I know you know everything."

Wang Jin had no choice but to reply respectfully: "Your Majesty will depose the Empress Dowager and Xuanmiao Empress at the same time, and demote her to Xuanmiao Li Concubine. She will be imprisoned in Yinghua Hall for life, and will be buried in the eastern suburbs as a concubine in the future. She will not be with Xuanmiao." Temple joint burial."

When Mrs. Sun heard the words, she was furious, her wounds burst open, her body tilted and she passed out.

Wang Jin told Ruan Xi: "In the past, you stay here to seek medical advice for your mother. You must not let your mother make any mistakes, otherwise you are the only one who asks."

Ruan Xi quickly replied: "Don't worry godfather, son knows the severity."

Wang Jin nodded, and led the crowd away.

As for the emperor's treatment of the Sun family, no one expressed any opinion.

Among the people who came to force the palace, except King Qin and Xiao Weizhen, they were all the emperor's cronies.

In King Qin's view, the Empress Dowager Sun buried Empress Hu in the western suburbs as a concubine, and today the emperor decided to bury Sun's family in the eastern suburbs as a concubine in the future.

If you want to compare it, the emperor's burial for his concubine is much more dignified than the empress dowager Sun's burial for Empress Hu. This can be regarded as revenge with virtue.

However, after Qin Wang and others went to the Yinghua Palace, everyone in Fengtian Square began to wait in place, because the Empress Dowager Sun's case did not come to a conclusion, so they could not continue the following topics.

Because almost all the people in the Ministry of Rites died, and the emperor did not allow Jin Yiwei to appear in the Forbidden City today, so no one emphasized etiquette.

Everyone began to look left and right, whispering to each other, guessing how the Empress Dowager Sun would respond, and the next trend of the meeting of relatives.

Zhu Qizhen sat on the dragon chair, as if on pins and needles.As a loser, it is actually a kind of torture to sit on the dragon chair high above.

Zhu Qizhen looked at every chattering person below, as if they were pointing and laughing at him.

Zhu Qiyu didn't interfere with the people below at all, but hugged his little concubine and whispered.

Ning Xiang's pretty face was flushed with shame, she buried her head in Zhu Qiyu's arms, and replied in a buzzing voice: "My house is so itchy, I can hardly sit still, my husband is really the worst and vicious slave owner in the world."

Zhu Qiyu retorted with a look of guilt: "The bad things are all done by the two little girls Qianxue and Suxi. I am a good person. How about it, when we go back in the chariot, we will torture them two instead."

Ning Xiang raised her head when she heard the words, but she retorted firmly with a blushing face: "That's not acceptable. When I go back, I have to tie my slave's house to a ring, and I can't take the Qiguo Avenue anymore. Master, let's take a bumpy road. OK?"

Zhu Qiyu was also speechless after hearing the words: "Well, since you like being tortured so much, then do whatever you want."

While talking, Zhu Qiyu suddenly felt the slender waist of the beautiful woman she was pregnant with.So he quickly asked: "What's wrong, Concubine Ai?"

Hearing the words, Zhu Qiyu sighed helplessly: "You little girl, you are becoming more and more feminine. After the meeting of the relatives is over, I have to take you and the royal family to talk about the friendship between you and the emperor. Win them over."

When Ning Xiang heard the words, she pinched Zhu Qiyu's arm lightly a few times in shame, and Zhu Qiyu laughed out in a good mood.

The people at the bottom of the steps only saw the imperial concubine blushing and chatting with the emperor, but they couldn't hear what was being said above.Everyone just lamented that the emperor really doted on his concubines. No wonder the emperor was willing to kill all the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the beautiful girls selected by the Ministry of Rites for them.

Zhu Qizhen was not so comfortable anymore, others couldn't hear what the emperor and concubine were saying, but he could occasionally hear a few words.What chariots, rings, this, that,

Zhu Qizhen didn't know what 'this' and 'that' were, but he knew what chariots and rings were. After all, when he was hunting in Wala, his brothers and sisters gave him such a chariot.

Zhu Qizhen just couldn't figure it out, before he went north hunting, he was a thorough and honest gentleman.He has been in power for 14 years, and he has been working hard to clean up the mess for his father.How come in the end, he can't compare to his absurd younger brother.

According to Confucian classics and the words of sages and sages, isn't my brother a proper fool?It is simply the same kind as King Zhou of Shang and King You of Zhou.

Looking at the two young concubines of Qi chatting with Concubine Wu and Princess Yongjia with smiles on their faces below, and thinking about his queen and concubines, Zhu Qizhen sighed heavily, feeling even more dissatisfied.Why do I behave like an upright gentleman, but in the harem you fight to the death and become a mess.But the younger brother is so absurd, but the harem is harmonious and there has never been a fight.This is so incomprehensible.

Zhu Qizhen lived in entanglement like years, and finally suffered for more than half an hour, and King Min, King Qin and others just returned to Fengtian Square with the Queen Mother's order.

The audience was suddenly silent, and Zhu Qiyu waved his hand, signaling King Qin to read the Queen Mother's order.
