My Brother-in-law is the Prince - Chapter 409
Chapter 409 The crime of treason can’t be hidden
Zhu Di said: “I see… Hu Guang is not exaggerating.”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly cooled down.
Yi Shiha didn’t understand Zhu Di’s meaning, so he didn’t dare speak up.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Di smiled and said: “The reason for this matter is difficult to distinguish now. Let’s discuss it at the court tomorrow. After the court meeting, we will know the details.”
Yi Shiha said: “Then outside the palace…”
Zhu Di said lightly: “Outside the palace…isn’t there Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Model Camp? The sky won’t fall!”
Yi Shiha: “…”
But Yishiha quickly understood Zhu Di’s intention.
This matter…it has nothing to do with me, it’s hanging high.
Yi Shiha didn’t know what was hidden behind this, but for him, he could probably know the truth of the matter.
But he didn’t bother to continue guessing, because…it had nothing to do with him.
So, he returned to the Supervisor of Rites.
In this ceremonial supervisor, several eunuchs on duty in Dongchang are waiting for orders.
“Grand Duke, what’s the matter, did His Majesty order suppression?”
“Grandpa, just now there is news that more than a dozen mansions have been raided, and many people have died.”
“The matter is urgent, the East Factory has assembled, and we are just waiting for the order.”
Yi Shiha smiled, squeezed his hands and said: “What’s the hurry, isn’t the sky still falling?”
“ah…”
Everyone was stunned.
Yi Shiha sat down, and when the little **** poured tea for him, he said calmly and leisurely, “You guys are always making a fuss, what do you look like! Take a look at Jin Yiwei, and then look at you, they all say you are palace officials. The people here, the people trained in this palace, should be more generous than the people outside, hey…”
He sighed, several eunuchs were confused, and each of them looked ashamed.
Yi Shiha immediately said: “Okay, let’s all go back and have a rest. Next note, let the bosses not act rashly with their fans.”
The eunuchs didn’t dare to ask further questions, so they could only say: “Here.”
Yi Shiha continued to drink tea, looking leisurely and thoughtful.
He doesn’t care what’s going on outside now, and he doesn’t care who the action is against this time.
All he could know was that Zhang Anshi must have written it, and what made him feel bad was that Zhang Anshi didn’t bring us with him after making such a big fuss.
This is very serious.
Anyway, the factory guard is also a family. Besides, His Majesty knew about this matter, and Zhang Anshi arranged it, but Yi Shiha kept it from him. This… inevitably made Yi Shiha feel a little depressed.
In the final analysis… Dongchang is still incompetent, not even worthy of a striker.
So he slowly raised his head, and suddenly looked at several Dongchang eunuchs, his eyes suddenly became terrifying.
An **** trembled a little in response to this gaze, and said at a loss, “What else does the Grand Duke have to say?”
Yi Shiha raised his orchid fingers, lifted the tea cover, lowered his head, put away the coldness in his eyes, and gently took a sip of the tea cup to his lips, then put the tea cup down, and said: “You are not promising.” , Such a big event, after knowing it later, after the accident, everyone looked panic-stricken, embarrassing, let us kneel outside, a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, what use are you for?”
All the eunuchs didn’t dare to reply, they all said yes, and all of them were dejected, and went to kneel outside the Prison of Rituals.
…
“Wu Gong, Wu Gong…”
The flow of people has receded like a tide.
But what remained was the mess of the whole house.
This man, known as Mr. Wu, was beaten to death along with a dozen other people.
Wu Gong was helped up, and his face was completely changed.
At this time, someone exclaimed: “Mr. Liu was beaten to death, he lost his breath…”
“Ah…” Someone beat his chest and stumbled, and wailed: “The troublemaker dares to do this, he is so bold, so bold. Mr. Wu… this is really disrespectful, people are like pigs and dogs.”
Everyone was wailing, and there were a few others lying on the ground still unable to move, obviously with broken ribs.
A person who has no breath was carried out.
This Wu Gong just stared blankly at the void, he pursed his lips tightly, remained silent, and did not say a word.
The pain all over his body was unimportant, but this kind of humiliation made him unforgettable.
Since he was born, he seemed to have a certain halo because of his family, and since then he has gradually grown up and is even more respected.
Now that he has lived for most of his life, not to mention being beaten like this, he has never seen even the slightest cold reception.
At this time, there was something flickering in his eyes, as if a ball of anger was rising and burning.
He turned a deaf ear to the wailing and scolding of the crowd, and his face was indifferent.
“Wu Gong, Wu Gong…”
This Mr. Wu said with a gloomy face: “Go and check, has the factory guards sent out bullets?”
“this…”
Wu Gong said coldly: “Go!”
After more than half an hour, someone finally came in a hurry and said: “There is no sign of repression, and it seems that it is getting worse. Now the capital and Qixia are full of people, and there is a lot of trouble, Mr. Wu…”
Wu Gong looked very calm, as if he had expected this result, but then said slowly: “From this point of view, this matter is quite interesting.”
Someone puzzled and said: “Wu Gong means…”
Everyone looked at Mr. Wu. By now, many people have calmed down.
Wu Gong said coldly: “Isn’t this obvious? Someone took this opportunity to teach that unruly people to cause trouble! The purpose is Xiang Zhuang’s sword dance, with the intention of Pei Gong.”
“I’m waiting for Pei Gong?”
Wu Gongdao: “Obviously.”
“But… now… shall we swallow it?”
“Who said you have to swallow your anger?” Duke Wu stared at the crowd.
At this time, he looked extraordinarily calm, but said: “Using such a method is like holding a sharp sword in a child’s hand, but this person never imagined that this sword is double-edged. It can also hurt yourself. Since this is Zhang Anshi’s idea, and His Majesty is backing him, it’s very good, it’s better… I wait to add fuel to the fire.”
“Add fuel to the fire…”
As soon as this remark came out, many people suddenly understood something, and soon, some people showed joy.
“Duke Wu meant…”
Wu Gong narrowed his eyes, his eyes shone brightly, and said: “These unscrupulous people deserve to die, I just took this opportunity to give them a ride. Since Zhang Anshi is instigating behind the scenes, I can also take this opportunity to lead the fire to the On him, I want to see if His Majesty will still protect this son if it is really beyond control.”
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words.
I have to say that although Mr. Wu only gave some instructions, they understood everything.
You know, things like this are what they are best at.
“How to act?”
“This is easy.” Wu Gong’s lips curled up into a half-smile, and he continued: “I will try my best to order people to do it immediately. This matter should not be delayed. The troublemakers are just mobs, and they only need to be provoked to succeed.”
“Okay.” Someone said, stood up impatiently, and said again: “I’ll do it now.”
“I am coming too.”
Everyone volunteered.
Suddenly received such a severe beating today, to be honest, this kind of deep-rooted hatred for Zhang Anshi and those troublemakers can no longer be suppressed.
Gong Wu also got up and said: “Then… let’s give them a ride.”
After he finished speaking, although his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, there seemed to be a smile in his eyes.
He didn’t expect that Zhang Anshi would do such a trick and play such tricks.
In a sense, this also gave him a chance to completely destroy Zhang Anshi.
Within three days, there will be no more Zhang Anshi in the world.
………
“Your Highness, Your Highness…”
Someone hurried to the model camp.
The person who came was Chen Daowen.
When Zhang Anshi saw him, he looked disgusted.
At this time, he was drinking with three brothers.
Alcohol is not allowed in the army, but today the model camp has a day off, so you can indulge for a day.
Zhang Anshi glanced at him, and said impatiently: “If you don’t keep an eye on me, why are you here again?”
“Your Highness, Chen Tongzhi… There is an urgent matter over there. He is worried about the others, so he asks Xiaoxia to report in person.” Chen Daowen said.
After hearing this, Zhang Anshi couldn’t help becoming suspicious, then put down the wine cup, stared at him and said, “What did your uncle say?”
Chen Daowen said: “Uncle said, they really started to move.”
“who are they?”
“This…Chen Tongzhi only talked about them.”
Zhang Anshi did not delve into it.
Then, he revealed an excited look: “Haha, sure enough…”
Chen Daowen said again at this time: “Chen Tongzhi is now ordered to come down to ask His Highness, can we do it now?”
“Do it? Why do you do it?” Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Don’t worry, you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry.”
“It’s just…Your Highness…this matter is too big.” Chen Daowen said with a little worry: “Humblely think…maybe things are getting out of hand.”
Zhang Anshidao: “If you can’t break it, you can’t build it. It’s going to get out of hand. What are you afraid of? These people, do you really think we’re just a bunch of mobs?”
Paused for a moment, and then said: “Don’t make a fuss, everything is as usual, Jin Yiwei, just keep an eye on it, and wait for my order.”
“Here.” Chen Daowen obeyed and left in a hurry.
As soon as he saw this, Chen Daowen left.
Zhu Yong became active, looked at Zhang Anshi and said, “Brother, which show is this?”
Zhang Anshidao: “Don’t understand what you shouldn’t understand, a man, don’t use your brain if you have nothing to do.”
Zhu Yong scratched his head, bowed his head, and continued to drink.
Qiu Song was already drunk, and he downed three glasses, but insisted on sleeping soundly with the wine jar in his arms, and the wine dripped all over the wine jar.
It’s getting late.
to midnight.
Zhang Anshi, however, was in high spirits, and ordered people to say: “Take my armor and teach someone to lead a team of troops. I want to enter the palace to have an audience.”
Immediately said again: “Go and invite Chen Daowen.”
Waiting for Zhang Anshi to get fully dressed, and another half an hour later, Chen Daowen, who hadn’t slept all night, came in a hurry: “What are your orders, Your Highness?”
Zhang An Shidao: “Command, start now, get me someone, don’t let anyone go.”
Chen Daowen said: “Obey.”
Zhang Anshi’s chariot and horses, surrounded by hundreds of guards, set off slowly from Qixia towards the capital.
Along the way, there are still many people.
The crowd did not disperse, as if they were tacitly waiting for the response from the palace.
Occasionally, someone will shout something.
Entered the capital, and within the capital, there were many people along the way, but no one dared to collide with Zhang Anshi’s car, and the flow of people gave way one after another.
Zhang Anshi sat in the carriage and took a small nap.
Occasionally, he heard someone yelling in his ear: “The surname Zhu doesn’t teach us how to live. I’ll wait for this and it will be reversed!”
“Kill to the Forbidden City!”
“We support the king of Wuhu County as the emperor…”
These noises appeared in disorder.
Zhang Anshi, who was sitting in the carriage, remained unmoved, as if nothing had happened.
When they arrived at the Forbidden City, although the sky was not bright, the Forbidden City was already brightly lit.
The guards have been strengthened here, and there are guards everywhere.
Besides the Meridian Gate, there are even more numerous civil and military officials.
It turned out that there was a lot of commotion everywhere, and the ministers did not dare to go back to the manor. At this time, they were very anxious, but they didn’t know the situation in the palace. At present, only the palace is the safest, so they came from the nearby halls This gathering is waiting for today’s court meeting.
Many people’s complexions are extremely ugly, and they are even described as gloomy.
Some people seem to have heard some bad news, fainted directly, and were rescued with all their might.
Zhang Anshi got off the carriage, just as the palace gate had already opened, so Zhang Anshi, the county king, first joined his brother-in-law and prince Zhu Gaochi, one after the other, and led all the officials into the palace to have an audience.
Today, Zhu Di woke up early, but Yi Shiha came here in a hurry.
Yishi Habai said: “Your Majesty, outside the palace…”
Zhu Di only left him a word, still calmly said: “What’s the matter?”
“It’s getting more and more out of control outside.” Yi Shiha lowered his voice, his voice was trembling a little, this time, he was obviously also a little scared.
Zhu Di said in a calm and unhurried manner: “Why is it out of control, tell me and listen.”
Yi Shiha looked hesitant and said: “This… I dare not say it.”
“Don’t say it if you don’t dare to say it.” Zhu Di snorted coldly.
Yi Shiha cautiously said: “But… if the slave doesn’t say anything, it will be disloyal, the slave is worried…”
Zhu Di stared at Yi Shiha: “Then let’s talk.”
“Outside… many people are saying that they want to embrace the king of Wuhu County as emperor, and they also say that they want to turn against Ming Dynasty… there are a lot of clamor.”
After hearing this, Zhu Di narrowed his eyes slightly, and the flesh on his face twitched slightly, and suddenly, there was a murderous look.
Yi Shiha hurriedly said: “Your Majesty, this is obviously an ignorant common people…”
Zhu Di suddenly said: “The wolf’s ambition has reached such a point, it’s very good!”
Yi Shiha heard it, and his face changed suddenly: “I think this should have nothing to do with Wuhu County King, it’s all…”
Zhu Di opened his eyes wide with anger, and shouted: “Hateful!”
After finishing speaking, he took big strides, lifted his feet and left, and drove to Chongwen Hall.
Yi Shiha was still prostrate on the ground, His Majesty did not order him to get up, he did not dare to stand up, but remained prostrate, motionless.
At this moment, he felt a little flustered, his heart seemed to jump into his throat.
A little **** came quietly from the side: “Grandpa… Grandpa…”
Yi Shiha suddenly gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: “These **** troublemakers.”
…
Dawn dawned.
A group of people were still waiting for the news, some of them were pacing back and forth with their hands behind their backs.
There are a lot of people here, and they haven’t slept all night. The people here include both merchants and scholars.
At this time, someone came suddenly, glanced at them, and said: “You can signal to do it.”
After hearing this, everyone looked at the person who came, “Isn’t it too late to do it now?”
“His Royal Highness said when to do it, then do it.”
“Okay!” Someone gritted his teeth and shouted, “Quick, quick…do it!”
…
At this time, the sky is still dark.
But at this moment, suddenly, a sharp bamboo whistle pierced the sky.
Then, more and more bamboo whistles began to sound from all directions.
Bamboo whistles one after another, after making harsh sounds…
Suddenly, the entire city of Nanjing and Qixia seemed to recover suddenly.
“Huang Xiucai, Huang Xiucai, there is a whistle, there is a whistle.”
After hearing this, the man called Huang Xiucai immediately shouted: “Come here for me, come here for me.”
While speaking, the flow of people quickly gathered towards him.
Huang Xiucai shouted: “Every workshop, every business, check, roll call, distribute armbands, immediately search for suspicious persons, etc., everyone self-examines, and those who have just been followed, arrest them immediately, later Brothers from Jinyiwei are here to assist, everyone gathers according to their own workshops and businesses, and don’t let any suspicious people go.”
“Zhang Ying, go meet Jin Yiwei’s Tiqi.”
“Niu Er, go get the rosters of each workshop.”
“Zhou Qian, go and distribute the armbands.”
“For these three streets, let the guards guard the intersections of the streets to prevent nightclubs. Also, the heads of all businesses and workshops should come to me. There are still some things that need to be discussed.”
Everyone suddenly agreed.
The huge flow of people began to disperse rapidly.
Then, someone was suddenly thrown to the ground by several people, and the person who was thrown down shouted: “Wait…wait, what are you going to do…”
“I’ve been following you for a long time. You sneaked into our team in the middle of the night. Do you really think we don’t know? What are you hiding in the crowd and you think others don’t know?”
“I wronged…I…”
Everyone rushed forward and directly tied him up.
Not long after, on the long street, captains in fish suits began to appear.
Before dawn, when the sight began to be clear, at this time… people in the streets and alleys of this city were all wearing cloth scarves on their sleeves.
This fabric is the latest batch of fabrics, and the colors used are also new, so there is no forgery at all.
On each armband, the name and the firm and workshop where it is located are written.
Then, under the sound of hurried boots, a Jinyiwei Chief Banner Officer led several people.
In this street, dozens of people were tied up, all looking panicked.
As soon as the chief banner officer arrived, Huang Xiucai hurried forward and said: “Nineteen rebels have been caught in these streets, and there are a few suspicious ones. I’m afraid I might make a mistake, so I won’t hand it over to you for the time being. We will investigate again.” Check it out.”
The general flag smiled: “It’s hard work.”
“We must conduct a thorough interrogation later.” Huang Xiucai instructed: “This is the record of their whereabouts from last night to the present. You still need to verify it. If you want to call witnesses, you can order them at any time.”
“Come on!” Zongqi shouted loudly: “Taking them all, this is a serious crime of treason, so there is no need to say any rules, just pry their mouths!”
…
Students, it’s the end of the month, begging for a monthly pass, woo woo woo…
