Doctor Gu Yanyue

Chapter 137: The Zhu Family's Ancient Clan is in the Same Line!

Now all the civil and military officials in the court could not speak, and they all tried to speak as little as possible.When the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces and General Zhou were silent, they didn't want to say more, and they all waited quietly to see if the young emperor could let the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces withdraw the curtain.

Since no one raised any objections at this moment, Shangguan Yaohe's promotion to Minister of the Ministry of Industry was a foregone conclusion.In other words, Zhu Yuanxun has since owned the Ministry of Industry, one of the six.

At this moment, Su Wentai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites held a memorial in his hand and said, "I have a book to play."

"Bring it up!"

The eunuch brought it to the emperor, and the emperor took a look at the memorial. Longyan couldn't help being furious, and threw the memorial directly at Su Wentai's body heavily, saying: "Bold! Such a memorial that insults the queen and me is groundless. How dare you present it?" ?”

Su Wentai hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "This humble official is bold, and his loyal words are harsh. What I played is definitely not groundless. Today, someone dug a stone tablet from the deep soil in Xishan, and the inscription said: 'The Zhu family is of the same vein. , the relationship is always chaotic, and the country will suffer.'”

"Su Shangshu is so courageous! With such nonsense, he dares to talk nonsense in the court and present memorials indiscriminately. Isn't he deceiving me and the empress when they are young?" Zhu Yuanxun's cold tone made the officials dare not speak out for a moment. .

However, Su Wentai risked his life and shouted: "How dare I speak nonsense about such a big matter? What I played is true, and I hope the emperor and the two queen mothers will take a closer look. That stone tablet, I have already made people Bring it up, please allow the emperor and the empress dowagers to carry the stele in."

The Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace immediately said through the bead curtain: "Bring me the memorial, and let the Ai family take a look. What's going on? Now that it's all brought here, it's natural to bring it in and have a look."

The eunuch presented the memorial to both the East Palace and the West Palace to have a look. After seeing it, the East Palace said gloomyly: "This is not a trivial matter. It is such an important matter that we must determine whether it is right or wrong. This is related to the reputation of our great Han royal family and the bloodline of future Zhu family heirs." .”

After reading the memorial, Xi Gong turned pale little by little, and said like the emperor: "It's pure nonsense! The emperor doesn't need to pay attention to it. Su Shangshu, if you find such a thing, you should deal with it in time. How dare you present it to the court? What should I do?"

After the civil and military officials in the court knew what was going on, they suddenly became uproarious.At this time, someone outside the Jinluan Hall brought in a large stone and placed it in front of the emperor for all the officials to watch.

When all the civil and military officials saw the engraving on the big stone: "The ancient clan of the Zhu family is of the same lineage, the relationship is always chaotic, and the country is ruined." When a line of words was written, they couldn't help whispering.

Some of the ministers thought they were loyal to the Zhu family, and knelt down one after another, asking for a blood test.

A 70-year-old old courtier knelt down tremblingly and shouted: "The old man will risk his life to enter the pilgrimage. Since ancient times, the order of heaven and earth must not be messed up! If the queen is from the Zhu family, then the cycle will be messed up. No! This will offend the gods, and the gods will punish us big men, and when the time comes, the heavens will be angry and the people will complain, and the natural disaster will not be far away!"

Some old ministers also quoted scriptures, citing the precedents of emperors of all dynasties who harmed the country because of promiscuity in the inner palace and disregard of ethics.All of a sudden, the matter became more and more serious, and people became panicked.

What's more, regarding this matter, General Zhou's attitude also began to change from being ambiguous to standing on the side of the East Palace, vaguely supporting the East Palace, and forcing the West Palace to make an explanation.

The Empress Dowager Xigong suppressed her anger and said: "It's ridiculous! The queen is my niece, and you actually said that she is the daughter of this palace and the late emperor. The late emperor has a spirit in heaven, and you will be so angry that you will not be at peace."

Commander Yuchi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, these evil words have confused the court and blatantly slandered the officials of the Emperor and the Empress. Please drag the emperor's quasi-ministers out and chop them up! Such a stele was made by someone with a heart. Please make a wise decision!"

Through the bead curtain, the East Palace sneered and said softly: "Commander Yuchi, if there is evidence and evidence, the emperor is wise, and he will always find out the truth. In the Golden Palace, Commander Yuchi always said that he would be dragged out and beheaded. Could it be that the emperor would not Decided?"

After finishing speaking, she turned to the West Palace and said, "Sister, this matter is a serious matter, and it's no wonder that the Qing family is so worried. They are also loyal to the big man. Since my sister thinks this is nonsense, then you might as well call the queen to come here." , in front of all the civil and military officials, let her and her sister have a blood test, isn't this the end? If it is true that this is just something out of nothing, then let everyone rest assured, lest the ministers worry about the great man's country And restless."

The voice of Empress Xigong from the bead curtain changed slightly: "Emperor, are you going to let these people be so arrogant in the Golden Luan Hall? Even the empress dares to slander, isn't that against the law? Commander Yuchi, let this person dare to despise the emperor and slander the empress!" Suventeira get out!"

"Yes!" Commander Yuchi was about to step forward.

Su Wentai was still kneeling, but raised his head and said: "Commander Yuchi, the emperor hasn't spoken yet, what do you want to do?" After he finished speaking, he turned to the emperor and said, "Your majesty, this is a big matter, we must investigate it! Or Please ask the queen to go to the court and have a blood test with the queen mother on the spot to set the record straight!"

Finally, the emperor Zhu Yuanxun said: "I think that this is a rumor created by someone with a heart, and it is purely false. As for this inscription, it can also be engraved by someone with a heart. However, in order to correct the situation, tomorrow morning, I will Bring the empress to court, and have a blood test with the empress dowager on the spot. I think the empress dowager Xigong also agrees?"

The Empress Dowager Xigong said sharply: "Okay! The Ai family agreed to the blood test tomorrow to set the record straight. However, after the proof, the Ai family asked the emperor to agree to let Su Wentai, the minister of the Ministry of Rites who caused the blood test storm with ulterior motives, beheaded, and the whole family was full." Cut off!"

As soon as the Empress Dowager Xigong said this, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were immediately restrained like a cicada.

After a long time, an old minister trembled Wei Wei and said: "As ministers, we only know that we are loyal to the emperor and patriotic. If there is anything that endangers the great Han country, we must report it truthfully. If you tell the truth, you will be executed by everyone. This kind of loyalty is harsh, who will Dare to remonstrate?"

Through the bead curtain, the voice of the Empress Dowager Xi was as cold as an ice knife: "This is not a harsh remonstrance, but a slander with evil intentions. Su Shangshu, can you hear what the Ai family said clearly?"

Su Wentai knelt down all the time, he didn't dare to raise his head, his whole body trembled like a sieve leaf, but he still insisted: "I only know how to serve my great man wholeheartedly, and what I defend is my great man's country. If so For this reason, the emperor wanted the humble minister to die, and the humble minister dared not die. He died without resentment. If the empress is really the empress dowager's biological daughter, then she and the emperor are brothers and sisters. This blood is the same, and they must not be husband and wife. It will harm the big man offspring."

"Okay! Retire!" The emperor was upset and sternly stopped Su Wentai from continuing.

"Retire—" the eunuch shouted.This is the first time that the emperor withdrew from the early court early.

Zhu Yuanxun remembered that three nights ago, when he was spending the night in the Jiaofang Palace, the queen brought a mirror and took a close-to-face photo with him, asking him all the time: "Do we look alike? Do we look like brothers and sisters? "

At that time, he only thought that the queen was playing something, and he didn't mind. He also said that he called Brother Xunxun to listen.Could it be that he and Yue'er are really brothers and sisters?Thinking about it now, I can't help guessing, could it be that the queen heard something beforehand?
After announcing his next court early, the emperor returned to Weiyang Palace.He heard that the queen was not in the palace, so he took her people to the suburbs to supervise the casting of cannons.

Sitting in the Palace of Qianqing, the emperor called Imperial Physician Zhang over and asked about the blood test: "Physician Zhang, tell me, is there any basis for the blood test?"

Physician Zhang knelt down on the ground and replied: "Reporting to the emperor, this is indeed well-founded. If the Empress Dowager and the Empress are really mother and daughter, their blood will dissolve; if not, they will never dissolve together .”

"Well, I got it, you step back." Zhu Yuanxun picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Xiao Dezi, why is this tea so bad?"

"Your Majesty, this is the best Tieguanyin." Xiao Dezi replied cautiously.There is no problem with the tea, but it is the emperor who has the problem.

After Imperial Physician Zhang stepped back, Zhu Yuanxun propped up two fingers, his face was as frosty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.At this moment, Xiaochunzi came in and said, the imperial concubine asked to see him.

Royal concubine?Isn't it the big princess?Then would she also be brother and sister with him?Zhu Yuanxun raised his eyes, a cold light flashed across his eyes, and a trace of disgust made him frown.

But he said: "Show her in." Someone must be playing tricks on that stone.Such a thing against Xigong must be done by Donggong, right?However, Donggong dared to stir up such a big storm, is there any real evidence?

"Yes." Xiao Chunzi went out to announce to Zhu Yuanchan.

Zhu Yuanchan came in with a cup of soup in his hand.After entering, she knelt down in front of Zhu Yuanxun, raised the soup above her head with both hands and said: "The concubine sent a cup of soup to the emperor, it is the Cordyceps Chicken Soup that nourishes the heart."

Zhu Yuanxun said "Yes", took the soup casually, glanced at the caterpillar fungus in the soup, handed it to Xiao Dezi beside him and said: "Little Dezi, I will reward you for this soup. I just drank it A few cups of tea, no soup."

"Your Majesty, this is specially stewed by the concubine for the Emperor to drink." Zhu Yuanchan felt a pity in her heart, but she just said something like a mosquito.

Xiao Dezi stayed for a long time before reaching out to take it, and said loudly: "Thank you for your kindness." He said thank you for your kindness, but his heart was trembling and his hands were shaking. After holding the soup, he never dared to drink it. .

Because Xiao Dezi is not a rookie in the palace, he has lived in a fake way for several years.Therefore, he knew that in the soup that the imperial concubine gave to the emperor, there must be some great tonics for aphrodisiac.He is a young eunuch, if he drinks this soup by mistake, it will be miserable.

How can the emperor reward him?This is clearly to hurt him!But how dare he refuse the emperor's reward?So, after taking the soup, I have been in a daze.

Zhu Yuanxun said: "What's the matter? I rewarded you, so you can drink it!"

"Yes! Xiao Dezi drink it! Thank you for your kindness!" Xiao Dezi drank it with a wry smile.
