Chapter 493 The Death of Zhou Shi
As soon as this remark came out, all the civil servants fell silent.

I dare not accept this.

They didn't want to be Qin Hui, and they didn't dare to force the emperor to be Song Gaozong, especially when so many people were present.

The scene fell into silence for a while, the officials looked at the emperor, and the emperor also stared at them, and the scene became very strange.

At this moment, a voice broke the silence, "Master Fu Yin is not well! Mrs. Zhou committed suicide in prison!"

"what?!"

Ji Wen's body was shocked, and then he looked at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the middle-level official of the Sixth Division, and his face became extremely ugly.

Zhu Cihong narrowed his eyes, "Ms. Zhou committed suicide?"

He looked at Qian Qianyi, Qian Qianyi's face turned pale, and he repeatedly scolded: "How do you Yingtianfu take care of the prisoner?! Don't you know how important this person is?!"

"Master Yuansuke!"

Ji Wendao: "Both Mr. Zhou and Uncle Zuo have checked carefully, and there is nothing on their bodies that can be used to commit suicide. Even, in order to prevent them from committing suicide, the officials paid their own money to make cushions, glued with glutinous rice juice, Paste it on the prison cell to prevent them from committing suicide by hitting the wall. But today, all the officials knocked on the gate, and the people complained, and the lower officials came out with three classes of yamen servants, and something happened to the Zhou family..."

He bent down and cupped his hands and said: "This fact is strange, I hope the court will investigate thoroughly!"

"Ying Tian Fu Yin, go back immediately!"

Before Qian Qianyi could reply, Zhu Cihong said, "Oh, as soon as Yingtian Mansion was empty, Mrs. Zhou committed suicide. What a coincidence."

The sarcasm in the words made all the civil servants present feel very uncomfortable.

Some of them thought about doing this, but Ji Wen refused to accept it, so they have not succeeded so far.only……

People who once had such thoughts are also confused now.

Why did Mrs. Zhou die before they did anything?
"How is Uncle Zuo?"

"Uncle Zuo is fine."

The yamen servant who came to report replied: "Fu Zun, Mrs. Zhou died by hitting a pillar, that is, hitting the doorpost of the prison cell."

Ji Wen stared straight.

One side of the cell is a wooden pillar, which...

He was really negligent.

But the problem is!

She had a strong will to survive before, why did she commit suicide suddenly?
"His Majesty!"

Ji Wen cupped his hands, "I ask Rong Chen to leave first, and I have to go back immediately to see what's going on."

"allow."

Ji Wen left in a hurry, but the rest of the people had their own thoughts.

What made these civil officials even more depressing was: Zuo Dayou never showed up, and neither did those nobles.

It's just that if you want to retreat like this, won't you lose your character as a literati?Moreover, once you retreat today, it will be difficult to fight against it in the future.

No, no refund!

The emperor treats them this way, if they don't fight today, will they still have a foothold in the court in the future? !
Thinking of this, many civil servants gritted their teeth and knelt down one after another, "I beg your majesty to take back your order, and the Ming Dynasty can't award meritorious officials!"

Zhu Ciwang glanced at these civil servants, was silent for a moment, and said: "If you don't reward those who have meritorious service, won't you hurt the hearts of loyal and brave ministers? Ye Deshu's association with the Qing people made it easy for the Qing army to penetrate deep into my hinterland. Now it's only a few days. The Duke has recovered Jiaxing, and he has suffered little damage, if you drive the Qing army into the sea again, do you want me to ignore such a feat?"

"Your Majesty, rewards are meant to be rewarded, but if the government affairs of Guangdong, Guangxi and Guangxi are all handled by the Duke of Zhenguo, the ministers feel that it is really inappropriate. Moreover, the ministers are not aimed at the Duke of Zhenguo, and the ministers are not the traitors of Qin Hui, the ministers I also know the loyalty and bravery of Duke Zhen.

It's just for the sake of the country, the world, and the king. This power must not be concentrated in the hands of one person, and this will also harm the Duke of Zhen. What if her subordinates have a different heart and threaten the Duke of Zhen?Your Majesty, I hope your Majesty will learn from you! "

A group of civil servants burst into tears, and some people listened, but unconsciously nodded, thinking that it made sense.

The story of Song Taizu wearing a yellow robe is a storyteller’s favorite story. They don’t know if Song Taizu really wanted to be emperor, but from the surface, it’s not just Song Taizu’s subordinates who forced him to wear a dragon robe?
"Then, according to the Aiqings, how should we reward Duke Zhen?"

"Your Majesty, I feel that you can return to Beijing as an official with the talent of the Lord of the Town."

"Oh?"

Zhu Cihong raised his eyebrows, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Then what position should I give?"

"Duke Zhen has the talent for educating people. I think that the Duke can come back to take charge of Zhan Shifu in Zhan Shifu. When the prince is born in the future, he can teach the prince."

Zhu Cihong's complexion suddenly became extremely ugly!
Although he is married, he has no children so far.Now let Zuo Fu lead Zhan Shi's mansion Zhan Shi sounds honorable, but where can the prince teach Zuo Fu?

Not only did this group of people want to completely dismiss Zuo Fu, but they also wanted to disgust themselves? !
This is not what he wants to see!

For the emperor, the way of balance is the most important!

The father and the previous emperors either relied too much on civil servants or eunuchs, but they didn't know which of these two types of people was more harmful to the country.

In contrast, it is safest to support warriors and form a tripartite restraint.

Needless to mention the loyalty and bravery of Zuo Fu and the Zuo family, he also knows this in his heart.But to be clear, he didn't want the Zuo family to become too powerful.

As an emperor, there are too many things to think about, self-willedness and emotion are taboos.Others are looking for themselves, but the emperor is looking for a country!

Therefore, although he has special feelings for the Zuo family, he still has to do what he should do. It is necessary to form a confrontation between civil and military, so that the world can be stable.

Nowadays, the power of civil servants is still too large, and it is still difficult for warriors to stand out. It is not easy to reverse the situation that has been formed for hundreds of years.

After all, you can't kill all these people, otherwise who will govern the world?If the civil officials are eliminated, who will the warriors rely on to check and balance?

Moreover, these people have disciples, and these disciples are spread all over the country. Today it is a hundred officials knocking on the gate, and tomorrow it may be the local officials of the whole Ming Dynasty. The sharp knife in his hand: Zuofu.

"You said..."

Thinking of this, he smiled coldly, "Let Zuo Fu be Zhan Shifu's Zhan Shifu?"

"Your Majesty, that's important..."

"Then where does my prince come from? Do you let such a person drink tea in Zhan Shifu every day? You really have a good plan!"

"This is exactly what I want to persuade Your Majesty. Your Majesty is a good example of a wise monarch who is diligent in government affairs. But your Majesty, although government affairs are important, as the Son of Heaven, reproduction of offspring is equally important. Therefore, I hope that Your Majesty will accept more concubines." , give birth to a prince early to prolong the country."

"what!"

Zhu Cihong laughed loudly, "What? Are you going to take care of my housework now?"

"There is no small matter in the Tian family. I hope His Majesty Yunchen and others will plead to recruit concubines and call the Duke of Zhen to sit in Zhan Shifu."
