Transmigrated As Cannon Fodder To Marry - Chapter 74
“Dang! Dang! Dang!” The gong rang three times, and a man in ordinary clothes, who could not tell his identity, was holding a gong while walking and knocking, and after knocking, he shouted: “The empress has an order. All must be burned, please cooperate and take the initiative to hand in the book.”
“Dang! Dang! Dang! The empress ordered that “The Record of Love and Enmity” is an evil book. It is related to the royal family’s secrets and should not be spread indiscriminately. Please take the initiative to cooperate and hand in the evil book at home and burn it.”
“Dang! Dang! Dang! Empress Empress…”
This Dangdang gong was knocked all over the streets and alleys of Shengjing, and every sentence was followed by the words “Queen Empress”, so everyone knew that the burning of the script was the order of the Empress Empress.
At first, some people wearing armor and holding long knives suddenly appeared on the street. The common people didn’t know who these people were.
These are the imperial guards that the queen ordered Qiuxi to arrange to go out of the palace to handle errands, and they were newly selected from various places after the second prince’s rebellion. For these people who can only be ordinary soldiers all their lives, they can be selected as imperial guards The army has the meaning of reaching the sky in one step.
The queen ordered them to do some small things, so naturally they did their best.
This small group of imperial guards first smashed the shops that sold the book “Love and Vengeance of the General”, and then robbed the books in the hands of the people on the street. The book “Chou Lu” was snatched, and after the snatching, it was thrown on the ground and stomped a few times. If there were too many, the book was burned directly in the street.
If you hear people gathering together to discuss the contents of this book, you will beat them immediately. If you have the courage to resist, you will beat them to death. Arrogant, acting very rampant. Along the way, everyone of the people felt in danger, afraid that they would be the next to be beaten.
The effect is obvious. The common people were frightened, and they dare not read and talk about it on the street. The storytellers in teahouses and restaurants also returned home early. The only bad thing is that in fact, not many books were burned, which was far from meeting the queen’s requirement that not a single copy be kept.
The person who beat the gong appeared when they were worried. Although they dared to rob books and beat people in the streets, it was different to break into people’s homes to search for books, so they didn’t dare either.
The person who beat the gong gave them the Queen’s order, which helped them a lot. When many people heard that it was the Queen’s order, they really took out the book and handed it to them to burn it.
At this time, none of them realized that there was any problem, until the next day, when the imperial guards went to the street to burn books, they heard someone say that the empress was guilty of letting people burn books.
There are quite a few people who say this, whether it is on the street or in restaurants and teahouses, you can hear it, even if the version is different, but the meaning is the same, the Empress did have a relationship with General Wei Su, but the Empress is greedy for power and wants to fly to the branch The head is a phoenix, so General Wei Su was abandoned. But she had General Wei Su in her heart, and after becoming a queen, she still wanted to secretly renew her relationship with General Wei Su, but General Wei Su refused, and the empress sent someone to kill General Wei Su because of love and hatred.
What was written in the scriptures was true, and the empress burned the book out of a guilty conscience, fearing that others would know that she wanted to cuckold the emperor.
No one dared to discuss Emperor Changde, but the empress made people burn books, beat people and smashed bookstores, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many people. If she did something wrong, she still had to do it because of her status. How could such a person deserve to be The queen, the mother of the world.
In just one night, the direction of the wind changed, and the content of the storybook was no longer discussed, and the queen was all talked about.
If someone dared to beat someone, he would no longer be beaten in vain like yesterday and dare not speak. Today, while being beaten, he called the queen empress to disregard people’s lives, so that the guards who beat people didn’t dare to do anything. Things got worse.
And there are people pointing at them and scolding their lackeys, from yesterday’s fear to today’s so boldly scolding them as lackeys, such a big change, finally someone realized something was wrong and shouted, “Oops, we let that **** who beat the gong play tricks Already!”
The leading Imperial Guards turned pale, and said angrily: “Search, find that **** for me, if you dare to play the Imperial Guards, if you catch someone, I will kill him!”
“Search, even if I dig three feet into the ground today, I have to find that kid.”
The imperial guards dispersed and ran all over the street looking for people, but the people were already a little dissatisfied with their actions yesterday, so they didn’t cooperate so much today. If something is lost, they will be dragged and reasoned for a while, which greatly delays their speed of finding someone.
Jiang Lin invited Zhou Chengwang and Du Yuling to drink tea in the teahouse early in the morning. The three of them sat on the second floor and had a panoramic view of the situation downstairs.
Zhou Chengwang and Zhou Chengwang looked at Jiang Lin with admiration, and Zhou Chengwang praised: “Lin’er, you are really good at doing bad things, and the empress’ reputation has been ruined by you this time.”
Jiang Lin drank his tea slowly and asked, “Did she have a good reputation?”
Unlike Emperor Changde who was dedicated to managing his own Mingjun, the empress did not have much sense of existence in the hearts of the common people. In the past, she was only regarded as a high-ranking empress, but now that she has such a romantic past, how can she have any reputation? to speak of.
But those who knew the queen knew better, that she was never a good person, let alone a good person.
Zhou Chengwang also belonged to the type of people who knew the queen, and subconsciously shook his head.
Jiang Lin smiled meaningfully, “So, how can you blame me for this, it’s because she herself has a bad reputation.”
“But if you do this, I’m afraid that the queen will jump over the wall in a hurry and do extreme things,” Du Yuling was worried about this. After all, the queen is a queen, which is different from the other people Jiang Lin dealt with before.
“Even if I don’t do this, she will still jump over the wall in a hurry. She never wanted to let us go, didn’t she?” Jiang Lin was in a good mood, and felt that no matter what the Queen did, he would not be surprised.
Once any major event happened outside the palace, it was never a secret. Because the queen ordered people to beat people and burn books, the common people were dissatisfied, and they were soon reported to Emperor Changde. This time, they were also old acquaintances of Jiang Lin and the others. , Master Zhang.
As a censor, Mr. Zhang has the duty of supervision. The queen’s behavior will not only affect her alone, but also the entire royal family. How could Mr. Zhang not sue the queen if he is so upright.
Chang Dedi knew about the matter of the book, and Chang Dedi also ordered people to find out about the empress’s and Wei Su’s past. Facts have proved that although the book was a bit exaggerated, what was written was all facts. Chang Dedi knew it in his heart even if he didn’t want to admit it, the empress It was an attempt to cuckold him.
He thought to himself that it was not for nothing that he wanted to get rid of Wei Su all the time. This person not only coveted his country all the time, but even his own woman fell in love with him. He really deserved to die.
At this moment, his only celebration is that Wei Su is a disciplined person, and he didn’t agree to reconnect with the queen, so he really liked him.
After hearing Master Zhang’s words, Emperor Changde didn’t get angry, and didn’t say how to deal with the queen. Instead, he asked Master Zhang what he thought, “Zhang Qing’s family, what do you think about this matter?”
Mr. Zhang had already prepared, “Your Majesty, I think you should find out the old things. If the script is false, you should arrest those who wrote the script and all those who spread the rumors and deal with them severely.”
“Then what if it’s true?” Emperor Changde asked again.
“This…” Mr. Zhang hesitated, “Your Majesty, if it is true, the behavior of the empress empress really hurt the face of the royal family, and I am afraid it will be unbearable for the future.”
Emperor Changde nodded slightly, as if agreeing with the words, “How about leaving this old matter to Zhang Qing’s family for investigation?”
Mr. Zhang was a little confused, he just came to sue, why would he want to investigate the love and hatred between the Empress and General Wei Su, this shouldn’t be investigated by him alone.
Seeing that he didn’t answer, Emperor Changde asked, “Why, Zhang Qing’s family is unwilling?”
He was quite unwilling, but he dared not say so. Mr. Zhang was forced to accept this task.
“If there is nothing else, Zhang Qing’s family will leave.”
Master Zhang retreated, Emperor Changde sat with his eyes closed and rested, no one dared to disturb him, after a while, Emperor Changde called Qian Yongfu.
“Your Majesty,” Gan Yongfu stepped forward lightly.
“Do you think Wei Su was really killed by the queen?”
“This…slaves don’t know,” Qian Yongfu didn’t dare to answer this question.
Emperor Changde moved his finger and tapped on his leg again and again, “Then what if I say yes?”
Qian Yongfu, “The emperor said yes, so of course it is, the emperor is right.”
Emperor Changde opened his eyes, looked at Qian Yongfu, and smiled, “I’ve been by my side for so many years, and I haven’t learned other skills. This flattering skill has improved a lot.”
Gan Yongfu laughed dryly, “What this slave says is the truth, the emperor is the master of the world, so naturally everything he says is right.”
Emperor Changde ignored Qian Yongfu’s flattery, but said to himself: “There should be an explanation.”
Qian Yongfu didn’t quite understand the meaning of these words, he only vaguely felt that the queen was afraid that he would suffer this time.
Qian Yongfu was sent out, and Emperor Changde entered the secret room alone. The secret room was the same as usual, with only a beautiful woman, a bed, and torture instruments all over the wall.
But Emperor Changde didn’t come to enjoy himself today, but wanted to talk to his little beauty.
A few days ago, Dedi was full of irritability because of Su Qiao’s affairs, and accidentally slipped his mouth during the enjoyment process. After listening to Ruyue, he said a few words of his own opinion.
It is said that what has been done will always leave clues and will be found out, but it is impossible to kill everyone in the world to stop their mouths. So it’s better to talk about the matter directly, but the wise and mighty emperor would never do the murder of loyal ministers.
As the moon was up, Emperor Changde naturally understood what she wanted to say. He had been paying attention to Yin Ji’s movements, and found that Yin Ji had already asked a lot of things from that woman Su Qiao. Yin Ji is a dead-headed person. I’m afraid he will say it directly in the court before long. Sooner or later, everyone will know that Wei Su and Su Yuan were not killed in battle, but were murdered by conspiracy, and he was the one who killed them. Emperor.
Emperor Changde would never allow this to happen.
Ruyue’s proposal just hit Emperor Changde’s heart, since the matter is going to be exposed, it is better to find a scapegoat.
As for who to look for, Emperor Changde hadn’t made up his mind at first, but when the queen’s incident happened, he already had an idea in his mind.
Emperor Changde held Ruyue in his arms, “Beauty, how about I canonize you as a queen?”
Ruyue put her hands on Emperor Changde’s neck, and the two of them were very close, “Your Majesty, don’t make fun of this servant, how can this servant, He De, be a queen, and besides, doesn’t the emperor already have a queen?”
The beauty exhaled like blue, and the fragrance from her body penetrated into the tip of Emperor Changde’s nose, fascinating him, “This world belongs to me, and whoever I want to be the queen can be the queen. Is there anyone who dares to object?”
As for the queen, a woman whose heart is on other men, how can this unbearable and unclean woman be worthy of the position of queen.
Emperor Changde didn’t say this, and Ruyue could only judge from Emperor Changde’s expression, thinking that he intended to abolish the empress.
On the face, he said with a charming smile: “Of course no one would dare to object, and the slave family is just waiting for the emperor’s good news.”
Emperor Changde asked her to tease her like this, turned over and pressed her under him, feeling that the fire on his body was burning again, and his eyes looking at the beauty were extremely hot.
Ruyue naturally understood what he meant, got up, went to the wall and took down two small wooden sticks, “Your Majesty, I will serve the Emperor to play with some fresh things today.”
Emperor Changde naturally had no objection, and went out of the secret room after playing happily.
Once out of the secret room, Emperor Changde ordered Qian Yongfu, “Those guards who have hurt the people on the street should be dealt with directly. By the way, remember, let the people know that it belongs to me. No one is allowed to casually hurt my people.”
“Yes, the slave understands.”
Gan Yongfu was about to retreat when Emperor Changde stopped him again, “What about the Wei family, why hasn’t everything been done yet?”
Qian Yongfu hurriedly said: “Your Majesty, the people sent said that it is not easy to enter Wei’s house. There is always one of Wei Yunzhao and Jiang Lin at home. I am afraid that if I miss it, I will startle the snake, and it will be even more difficult to get things done later.”
Emperor Changde was very dissatisfied with this answer, “Why, there are so many people, specially trained dead soldiers, it’s fine if they can’t beat Wei Yunzhao, but they even returned an egg to Jiang Lin. Are you raising a bunch of trash?”
“Your Majesty, calm down,” Qian Yongfu quickly explained, “Your Majesty, Jiang Lin didn’t notice this before, but later on he realized that this person is hiding everything, and no one who fought against him was his opponent.”
Emperor Changde laughed angrily, “Good method, Uncle Anyang’s mansion is really a good method. It turns out that it has been mixed with the Wei family for a long time. How dare you use the prince to tell me that a man has a strong yang energy, and happiness is more effective. This It’s really effective, I underestimated Uncle Anyang’s residence.”
Qian Yongfu defended Uncle Anyang’s mansion, “Uncle Anyang’s mansion also didn’t know that the stepwife that Uncle Anyang married was against Jiang Lin. At the beginning, he wanted Yuenu to marry the prince, so he thought about changing the candidate for Chongxi. According to the slave, it is Jiang Lin who has been hiding his clumsiness, the slave always feels that this person is not simple, and there is probably someone behind him.”
Who else? Emperor Changde didn’t expect that he thought he had eradicated all those who threatened him.
But Jiang Lin was really suspicious, Emperor Changde said: “Find someone to watch him, to see whether he is hiding or someone is behind him, and besides, the matter of that child can’t be delayed any longer, I don’t care what you think, I just want people to die. “
This made God Yongfu startled, and he knew in his heart that if the child from the Wei family hadn’t died, they would have died.
Gan Yongfu quickly agreed, and when he turned to go out, his expression was a little dignified, and the matter could not be delayed any longer.
…
Emperor Changde issued an imperial decree to dismiss all the imperial guards who disturbed the people and beat them, and rewarded each with fifty military sticks. He also warned everyone not to do such disturbing things in the future, otherwise they will be severely punished.
After the imperial decree was issued, the people cheered, and everyone praised Emperor Changde as a good emperor, who thought of the people, and felt that the queen deserved such a good emperor.
I don’t know who took the lead, and there was a wave of petitions to abolish the empress.
When the queen received this news, her face turned pale instantly, she couldn’t hold herself back and took a few steps back, and finally collapsed, “Impossible, this is impossible, the emperor can’t abolish this palace… “
The queen stood up abruptly, and her eyes became sharper, “It’s Jiang Lin, it’s Jiang Lin and Wei Yunzhao, those two bastards, it must be them.”
The queen began to analyze on her own, and felt that Wei Yunzhao had set a trap for her since Wei Yunzhao discussed with the eldest prince the tactics of retreating from the enemy.
They must have known that she intended for the prince to marry a daughter of the Yin family, and the eldest prince has not yet married a wife in his twenties. The emperor will never forget the eldest prince when he bestowed a marriage on the prince. What method did Wei Yunzhao use to make the emperor Wei Yunjia Give a marriage to the eldest prince. It made her and the crown prince think that the emperor was calling the eldest prince back to fight for power with the crown prince on purpose, so they could take the opportunity to get rid of the eldest prince and the Wei family, and knowing the old grievances between her and the Wei family, they lured her to get rid of that old woman of the Zhou family.
As soon as Mrs. Zhou died, the two of them colluded with Yin Ji to thoroughly investigate the cause of Mrs. Zhou’s death, and also involved her and Wei Su’s almost engagement back then. She warned Yin Ji, Wei Yunzhao and the two saw that their plan would not work, so they deliberately made a daughter of Su Yuan, used Su Yuan’s daughter to make a big fuss, wrote story books to promote the past to lure her into the game, and finally completely ruined her. reputation.
Now it is even more inciting the people, urging the emperor, and letting him abolish the empress.
The queen’s face was full of ruthlessness, “Scheming and scheming, these two people are vicious, and they want to put me to death.”
Seeing that the queen was not in the right state, Qiuxi quickly called her, “Your Majesty, are you alright?”
The queen looked at Qiuxi and smiled, “It’s okay, Bengong is doing well, Qiuxi, how many years have you been with Bengong?”
Qiu Xi said: “Since the empress entered the palace, the slaves have been with the empress for twenty years.”
“Twenty years,” the empress breathed out, “I have been an empress for twenty years. I thought that I could be an empress for half my life, and a queen mother for half my life. Now it seems that I am afraid it is a fantasy.”
“Your Majesty, it’s just that some ignorant people were incited to say some stupid things. It can’t be taken seriously. The emperor has a deep relationship with the empress and his wife. The emperor will never abandon the empress. Don’t think too much, empress.”
The queen turned around and looked outside Changning Palace, “Qiu Xi, have you ever wondered how long it has been since the emperor came to this palace, Changning Palace?”
Qiuxi showed hesitation, the empress didn’t realize it if she didn’t mention it, after all, it’s been almost a year since the empress was grounded last year, the emperor has never been to Changning Palace, let alone summoned her.
“But your majesty, isn’t your majesty…” The majesty is inhumane, just like a eunuch, Qiuxi dare not say such things clearly, so she can only hint to the empress, “And the majesty has never been to Changning Palace, nor has he been to other places. I always remember.”
The queen got a lot of rewards that time, and that was the only time.
“That’s right, the **** was meritorious. I think it was last year, and I haven’t seen the emperor for more than half a year.”
“It’s funny to say, this time this palace will be a blessing in disguise, to see the emperor.” The queen’s tone was sad, mixed with a bit of longing, so Qiuxi didn’t know how to speak and persuade.
Emperor Changde summoned the queen the next day, after Yin Ji had stated in the court hall that the two generals Wei Su and Su Yuan were not killed in battle but murdered.
