Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 443 Price Exchange, Pei's Going to Beijing (1)
When the King of Lingnan was in control of the situation in Shangjing, there were indeed some officials who were inclined to him due to their power and majesty. Really miserable.

But the emperor is also a wise king, knowing that the current political situation is initially determined, and it is time to employ people. Besides, these officials had no choice at the time. Call it heroic?

Although Mr. Lu Ge's integrity is admirable, but whoever turns his head and scolds him for being stupid, if he stays in the green hills, he will not be afraid of running out of firewood. It is the same for King Xu of Lingnan to be a snake, and it is the same when he meets Ming Jun and then switches to the camp.

Just like He Yu, the governor of the Fengtai Camp at that time, and Ye Lun, the general of the Right Jinwu Guard, they did not move in secret, and finally bet on the current emperor.

But Ji Mingde's situation is more complicated, because he was not an official who compromised due to power and bowed his head after the King of Lingnan took over the capital, but he had defected to the King of Lingnan long before that and sought the throne for the King of Lingnan He also contributed a lot of credit, of course, he is not the only such official.

Pei Yan also asked for a lot of connections, and went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to inquire about the news. Now that Ji Mingde's evidence is convincing, it is a certainty, even if he escapes from the monk, he will not be able to escape from the temple.

Colluding with the rebel king means that one foot has already stepped into the gate of hell, how can he save it?
As Pei Yan thought about it, a layer of cold sweat covered his back.

Now it is impossible to get Ji Mingde out, the only way is to let other people get off the hook as much as possible, and not implicate the entire Ji family because of Ji Mingde's fault alone.

The old man Ji has long passed away, and Ji Mingde is the only official in the Ji family. The others are either old or weak, or women and children. Except for Ji Chongyu, none of his children took the imperial examination.

This matter can only be settled with him, Pei Yan didn't want to cause more trouble, after clearly understanding the whole story, he went to the emperor that day.

It was quiet in the imperial study room, behind the table, a man in bright yellow clothes was seriously looking at the memorial in his hands, and two servants stood beside him, both bowed their heads and remained motionless like dolls.

Pei Yan had been kneeling not far from the table for two hours, his back was straight, but the sweat from his forehead slid down his hair, soaking his dark red lapel, leaving a A dark blot.

"What time is it?"

Emperor Jianyuan put down the vermilion pen in his hand to revise the memorial, rubbed the center of his eyebrows a little tiredly, and slowly leaned back on the big red sandalwood armchair carved with the dragon pattern, and the armchair was covered with a whole piece of yellow and white tiger skin, Soft and warm.

A servant turned his head to look at the hourglass, then took a step forward, and replied softly, "Your Majesty, it's Haishi."

Emperor Jianyuan glanced at Pei Yan who was still kneeling on the ground, and said lightly: "You have thought about it clearly, in order to keep Ji's family, are you really at all costs?"

"The minister has already thought clearly."

Pei Yan slowly raised his head. If he still had some struggles and reluctance at the beginning, but thinking of Ji Chonglian's expectant and helpless eyes, he couldn't bear to let her down, let alone watch her sad.

He said that he would go back to the capital in a dignified manner to clear up the grievances of the Pei family, and he has done all of this today, so what regrets are there?

Emperor Jianyuan sighed, "I knew that you are a serious person, otherwise I wouldn't have promoted you by my side at the beginning... But this matter is of great importance, and I can't treat one more favorably than another!"

Pei Yan lowered his gaze, "It's the minister's fault for embarrassing the emperor!"

"Forget it, Ji Jiazhen saved it for you, and Ji Mingde is the only one who can't get rid of the crime. As for you..." Emperor Jianyuan suppressed his complexion, and took a deep look at Pei Yan, "The mission of the Qianfeng Battalion is temporarily handed over to Luo Wujun, you Just look at yourself at home!"

Pei Yan trembled slightly, touched the ground with both hands, and slowly pressed his forehead on the smooth and cold marble floor, "Thank you, Majesty Long En!"

In order to keep the young and old of the Ji family, Pei Yan lost his errand and stayed at home, only bearing the name of a loyal and brave general.

After Ji Mingde heard the news, he locked himself in the study for a whole night.

On the second day, when the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice went to Ji's house to arrest Ji Mingde, he had already committed suicide in fear of crime, and left an apology letter on his desk, which recorded in detail all the crimes he knew about the Lingnan King. Doing and shady deeds can be regarded as paying off the merits and seeking a way for the Ji family to survive in the future.

After Emperor Jianyuan read the letter of guilt, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "Finally, this old man still knows how to repent, so the Ji family's wealth will not be confiscated!"

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, the people below naturally knew what to do.

However, the other rebels who were involved with Lingnan King did not escape this bad luck so easily. However, Emperor Jianyuan did not want to continue the bloody and high-pressure Lingnan King at that time. , slaves act as camp prostitutes.

Such a profound lesson is the fate of winners and losers, and let everyone see it clearly. Who told them to stand in the wrong camp at the beginning?
After cleaning up the rebel party, the canonization of many concubines in the harem was also promulgated.

Concubine Yan was demoted to the concubine position because of her negligence during the war. Even if she was unwilling, she could only endure it. The situation was stronger than others, and she had to bow her head.

The side concubine Shi ascended the throne of the empress with great expectations, her mother respected the world, and she led the concubines in the harem when worshiping the ancestors. Everyone who has seen her grace and demeanor praises her.

And Concubine Fan was also promoted to the position of imperial concubine. Even her father, the king of Xiliang, was given a different surname by the emperor.

Lan's and Gu's are the same concubines of Jin, sitting on an equal footing with the former Yan Wangfei, and it's time for them to feel proud.

Rebelling against the party and subjugating the law, the harem is initially established, seeing that the capital city has a new look, but the sky over the Zhongyong General's mansion is gloomy.

Even though the masters are still smiling, in the eyes of the servants, they are forced to smile. They were so majestic in the past, but now they are so aggrieved. It was a feeling of being inferior, which attracted countless mocking and mocking looks.

However, these emotions did not infect Ji Chonglian. Pei Yan could put down her business and stay with their mother and daughter, which was what she wished for.

Now Gansu is not peaceful, Liaodong is in turmoil, and judging from the emperor's handling of this matter, Pei Yan will recover sooner or later, and now it is time for him to rest and adjust after the war, so Ji Chonglian is not worried at all.
