Seiwa

Chapter 125 is up

How would most people react if they accidentally peeked at a big secret?

Hype?Or hold it in your heart and don't say anything?

The guards in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in Beijing did not want to choose any of them.He only hopes that time can turn back and go back to the moment when he was carrying out his routine patrol with the iron ruler.

If his wish can be fulfilled, he will definitely bypass Xingningbo's cell far away, and he will not take one step closer to death!

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, people are unlucky, drinking water can get stuck between teeth!

I saw it, even if I saw it, it was useless to poke my eyes.

The jailer silently shed two lines of tears. He has an [-]-year-old mother on top of him, and a baby waiting to be fed on his bottom. The mother-in-law is a famous flower in ten miles and eight towns. He is not reconciled to ending a good life like this!

Marquis Dingyuan's icy gaze sent chills down the jailer's spine. No miracle happened, and he would never see the sun tomorrow.

Shen Xuan's gaze became colder and colder, and the jailer burst into tears, "Master Hou, the little one didn't see anything!"

After saying that, he immediately retreated to the wall, shaking his feet, hoping that the person in front of him would spare his life.

This distance is not necessarily safe.No matter how Marquis Ding Yuan got into the cell, he could get out of it.But stay away, you can always get some psychological comfort.

Shen Xuan didn't make a sound, picked up another official document, picked up a pen, dipped in the ink, and began to write earnestly.

Meng Qinghe held his chin, looked at Shen Xuan, and then at the jailer who ran to the corner, trembling uncomfortably, it was rare for him to show kindness.

Waving, "Don't be afraid, come here."

The jailer shook his head like a rattle, in the past?How can there be life!You can't pass even if you are killed!

Meng Qinghe bared his teeth, "Can't make it through?"

Shen Xuan raised his head and took a look.

The jailer burst into tears instantly. I never heard that the second senior brother was asked to lie on the chopping board before killing the pig. This is inhumane!

But the situation is stronger than people, even if you run, you may not be able to escape.Unless he dragged his family and his mouth to become a refugee, otherwise, with the power of Marquis Dingyuan and Uncle Xingning, he could be crushed to death with just a flick of a finger.

Wiping away his tears, the jailer suddenly felt a sense of tragedy.

Under the gaze of Meng Qinghe's smile and Shen Xuan's icy eyes, he took a step forward and moved to the cell step by step.Through the wooden fence, a trembling voice said, "Master Hou, uncle, I really didn't see anything!"

Meng Qinghe turned his head and looked at Shen Xuan, "Master Hou, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

Shen Xuan buried his head in the official document again, "It's up to you."

Meng Qinghe raised his eyebrows, "Anything will work?"

"kindness."

"Let him go?"

"Row."

From the beginning to the end, except for the coldness in his eyes, Shen Xuan's attitude has always been very calm, without the slightest embarrassment of having his "secret" broken and the awareness of needing to kill someone to silence him.

By him?

Meng Qinghe put his arms on his coiled knees, clasped his hands, and blew a strand of black hair that fell on his forehead.

If you live in a cell for a long time, you will always become "free and unrestrained".As neat and tidy as Shen Houye, the clothes are changed every day, which is completely different.

After thinking for a moment, Meng Qinghe said to the jailer in the most amiable tone: "From today onwards, the inspection work in this area will be taken care of by one step, how about it?"

"What does Uncle mean?"

"It's inevitable that there will be another accident and innocent people will be implicated." Meng Qinghe's mouth twitched, "Shen Houye won't be in such a good mood every day. So, let's work harder."

The jailer was terrified, is this a tiring thing?

"Don't worry, the safety of your life is absolutely guaranteed."

The jailer became more and more frightened, and his life was guaranteed, so there was no other guarantee?When Master Shen is happy, will he take off one of his arms and legs?

"When Meng Mou goes out, I will definitely prepare a generous gift as a thank you. But," Meng Qinghe changed the subject, "if there are rumors, you should know what the consequences will be."

The jailer shook his lips, finally unable to control the fear in his heart, and burst into tears.

Leaning on the wooden fence, watching the jailer go all the way away, Meng Qinghe touched his nose, it seems that it is not good to bully people like this?

"Master Hou is not worried?"

"What are you worried about?"

"Just now..." Meng Qinghe leaned over, his voice lowered, and he pecked at the corner of Shen Xuan's mouth with his head, "Are you not worried at all?"

As soon as the words fell, the back of the head was pressed down by a big hand.

Shen Xuan told Meng Qinghe with practical actions that the so-called worry is purely superfluous.

When Shen Xuan let go, Meng Qinghe licked the corner of his mouth and hissed.The lower lip must have been bitten off.

Looking at Shen Xuan again, he was not much better than himself.

Finally balanced.

For the next few days, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice remained calm.

No rumors spread, and the tearful jailers returned to work.It's just that when he was patrolling the prison again, every time he passed by the cell where Xing Ningbo was held, he would keep his eyes on him, take three steps in parallel, and trot at a faster speed.If it weren't for worrying about hitting the wall, my eyes would be blindfolded.

More and more official documents were sent to the prison. According to the experience of the military governor's mansion, the Marquis of Guangping was ill, and the sick leave note was handed to the emperor in person by Princess Yong'an.

Out of compensatory mentality for his daughter, even if the number of days of leave seriously exceeded, Zhu Di also approved the concubine's sick leave note.

With the leave note in hand, Hou Guangping no longer has a sore waist, no headache, and can sing with ease.

Dingyuanhou took over the baton and struggled in the ocean of work.

For three consecutive days, Shen Xuan only slept for less than two hours a day, and his face showed a trace of fatigue unconsciously.

Meng Qinghe felt distressed and offered to help.

The official seal has been confiscated, but the title is still there.It shouldn't hurt to help out with the sifting and sorting.It can also help a lot when it comes to numbers.

Shen Xuan did not refuse.

It's just that Meng Qinghe's lips were hurt again.

With the help of Meng Qinghe, Shen Xuan's work speed soared like a rocket.

With the same workload, the Marquis of Guangping was exhausted, but the Marquis of Dingyuan was calm and calm. His daily working hours were reduced from eight hours to four hours, and overtime basically disappeared.

Inspired by Shen Xuan's fighting spirit, even greater enthusiasm for work broke out in the military governor's mansion after the departure.Like a raging bull, he will not give up until he reaches his goal.

The officials of the six Beijing ministries were stunned for a moment, and had to look at the military attaches of the military governor's mansion after the departure.

He can kill people on the battlefield, but he can still work efficiently when he enters the Yamen.No wonder the emperor valued it.

There will be competition if there is comparison, and there will be progress if there is competition.

Stimulated by the military governor's office after the departure, the officials of the six departments were unwilling to lag behind, and their efficiency and standard of work were greatly improved in a short period of time. Zhu Di was very satisfied with the report sent to him.Pick up a pen and write down an imperial edict, and send it to Nanjing quickly.

Look at the work efficiency of Shuntianfu, and then look at Yingtianfu. Compared with the newly established departments, Nanjing No. [-] can still sit still?

Zhu Di is not afraid of being tired. As an ADHD patient who wants to go for a walk at the neighbor's house when he has nothing to do, his energy is very comparable to others.This is very similar to his father Zhu Yuanzhang.The more diligent his subordinates, the more he valued them naturally.

Of course, it's okay to value it, but praise is temporarily exempted.

Numerous facts have proved that when praised by the emperor, the chance of crying is far more than that of laughing.

The imperial edict was sent back to Nanjing. On the one hand, it reminded the Six Ministries of Nanjing not to think that the emperor is not around to be lazy, but to work hard for me!On the other hand, it is also to put pressure on the mastermind of the assassination.The emperor can now care about the work of Yingtian officials, does it prove that the assassination case has a clue?The skin should be taut.

Along with the imperial edict, there was also a secret order to Jin Yiwei.

After receiving the order, Yang Duo, the commander of Jinyiwei, immediately led people to surround Cao Guogong Li Jinglong's mansion.

Yang Duo had a driving ticket in his hand, but he didn't arrest anyone. He only sent people to guard the gate of Cao Guogong's mansion. Entry and exit must be strictly checked, and Li Jinglong himself is no exception.

After Li Jinglong, the mansion of Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, was also besieged. Geng Bingwen's eldest son, Yibin Geng Xuan, was invited to drink tea at Fusi, North Town of Jinyiwei.This time, Geng Bingwen couldn't see the emperor even if he wanted to intercede.

The governor of Zuo was safe, and Hou Shengyong of Licheng was not spared either.

Jin Yiwei's actions were extremely fast, and the gate of the mansion was blocked overnight.Pedestrians who passed by all backed away when they saw the emperor's army in brocade robes and embroidered spring knives on their waists.Especially the officials who have experienced the Hongwu Dynasty, seeing Jin Yiwei's behavior like this, can't help worrying, is it possible that the Lanyu case will repeat itself?

If you are careful, it is not difficult to find that most of the people who were besieged this time were former ministers of Jianwen, who were military generals, and had confronted the emperor during Jingnan.

Li Jinglong put aside, Geng Bingwen, Sheng Yong, and Ping An all made Zhu Di suffer.

Could it be that the emperor is about to liquidate?

The generals were uneasy, and the civil servants were equally uneasy.

Xie Jin and others in Wenyuan Pavilion were worried, and Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi could not continue to stay out of the matter.

Everyone is guessing what the emperor wants to do.

Could it be that Li Jinglong and others are the masterminds of the murder case?

There is no reason.

The Jianwen Dynasty has passed, and Zhu Di has secured the throne. At this time, he is planning an assassination, and his head is flooded?What's more, when Emperor Jianwen entered the imperial mausoleum, several of his younger brothers were also demoted to common people and sent to the Central Capital to be guarded. What's the use of a successful assassination?

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out.

Perhaps because he thought that the heads of the courtiers were not big enough, Zhu Di was very wide and released two thunderbolts.

The royal decree Wang Aolang was rebellious, violated the ancestral precepts, abused the soldiers and civilians, had no king and no brother, was rebellious, removed his three guards, and only gave the school lieutenant 30 followers.

King Chigu was greedy, oppressive and cruel, he was good at construction, exhausted the army and the people, raised taxes, made the people resentful, dismissed his guards, and made the king's mansion think about his mistakes.

At the same time, it is strictly ordered that the officials belong to the department, and from now on, they must be ordered. The palace is not allowed to serve the army or the people without authorization, and collect money and property. Violators will be punished severely.

After disposing of Dai Wang and Gu Wang, Zhu Di issued a decree to make Zhu Panxuan the son of Ning Wang and reward him with silver and salary.At the same time, the sons of King Zhou and Prince Min were also canonized.

Hit a stick and give a sweet date.Beating a batch and pulling a batch, Emperor Yong Le used it quite skillfully.

So far, the mastermind of the assassination has not yet surfaced, but it is not difficult to see some clues from the emperor's repeated actions.

Jianwen's old minister, vassal king, and relatives.

Think deeper, can not help but startled.

Zhu Gaochi lives in the Wenhua Palace, and he doesn't come out behind closed doors, even Xie Jin and others don't see him.Except for the invitation to Zhu Di, he didn't ask questions about the government.Even if a courtier came to the door, it would be sealed up immediately, and the memorandum would be truthfully written and sent to Peiping.

The concubine was detained in the Wenhua Palace for many days, and was not summoned by Empress Xu to speak until the order of Princess Shang Changning issued Mu Xin as the captain-in-law.

During the period, Geng Bingwen went to Shu, please get rid of the noble.Ping An and Sheng Yong also went to beg for bones.

Li Jinglong didn't make a statement, and he didn't express his grievances. Cao Guogong was a tough guy after all, and he went on a hunger strike.

When the news reached Peiping, Zhu Di was very surprised.

Ten days passed, and when others thought that Cao Guogong's mansion was about to prepare funeral affairs, Li Jinglong was still alive and well, continuing his hunger strike.

After receiving Jin Yiwei's report, Zhu Di laughed angrily.

"Pass down my will and ask Yang Duo to evacuate the people. Also send a message to Cao Guogong, don't starve if you can't die of hunger,"

"According to the order."

Zheng He agreed and withdrew.

Zhu Di picked up the imperial censor Chen Ying's memorial to impeach Sheng Yong, pondered for a long time, and finally put it aside.

This assassination reminded Zhu Di that now is not the time to rest assured, and he will never be able to sit back and relax without getting the final answer.

The Jinyiwei was sent out to dig out the remaining Jianwen party hidden in Beijing, not to wipe out all the generals of the Jianwen Dynasty.

In August Bingzi, Du Ping, who assassinated the emperor, was sentenced to Lingchi and the Yi tribe.Du Ping's family members, clan members, were imprisoned according to their household registers, and will be executed after autumn.Along with being dealt with, there were more than a dozen people who had "close ties" with Du Ping.

Jin Yiwei's ability to handle affairs is extraordinary. In less than a month, all the people who had a relationship with Du Ping were dug out, and Meng Qinghai was among them.

The news of Meng Qinghe being sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice spread back to Mengjiatun, and the people in the clan were all worried.Even if Meng Hu and Meng Qingjiang inquired about the news, and Shen Xuan sent someone to bring the news, everyone could not rest assured.

Meng Wang's face was washed with tears all day long, and Meng Chongjiu was so anxious that a circle of blisters formed around his mouth.

It has been a long time since Meng Qinghe was released, and the clansmen have somewhat bad guesses in their hearts.Some worried about Meng Qinghe's life, and some complained about Meng Qinghe's trouble for others.Some people even said that it would be better to expel Meng Qinghe from the family before he was charged with the crime, so as to save the lives of the whole family.

The patriarch could not be subdued, and the voice of complaints became louder and louder.The elders of Meng Chongjiu and other clans made a decisive decision, summoned the clansmen, and said sharply, whoever dares to think like this again will immediately open the ancestral hall and remove his family from the genealogy!

"Who is the reason why the Meng clan is today? Who are the sons and daughters who can study, join the army, and stand out from the crowd?"

"One must have a conscience! To repay kindness and revenge is worse than animals!"

"Twelve Langs are in trouble, as a tribe, they should help each other, and if they can't help, they shouldn't make trouble!"

"Kill Twelve Langs out of the family, thank you for being able to say it! Don't say that the current situation is unclear, even if Twelve Langs really have something to do, the Meng family will also carry it with him!"

"Follow up when there are benefits, and immediately clear up when encountering disasters. Feel your conscience. If you really do this, you can still be a man with your head held high in the future? If it spreads, who can think highly of people in Mengjiatun?!"

After several words, all the clansmen lowered their heads, with embarrassment on their faces.

Meng Wang and her two daughters-in-law were sobbing, and several women stepped forward to comfort them and shed tears together.

Just when Meng Chongjiu and other clan elders appeased the subordinates and continued to try their best to find out the news, a team of officials suddenly arrived at Mengjiatun and took away Meng Qinghai and Meng Guangxiao.

Only then did everyone know that it was Du Ping from the neighboring village who assassinated the emperor!It was found out that Meng Qinghai was involved with the Du family, and he was going to be questioned in court.

Meng Liushi fell to the ground limply from crying, and was helped up by someone, who was a little silly.

Fortunately, there was no evidence linking Meng Qinghai to the assassination case, and the father and son were soon released.

However, due to the close relationship between Meng Qinghai and the Du family, during the Jingnan period, he revealed to Du Ping the suspicion of Beiping city defense. With the confession of Du Ping's family, it was verified that Meng Qinghai's reputation as a scholar was dismissed, and he was not allowed to take the imperial examination in his lifetime.

The Wanping county magistrate didn't make things difficult for Meng Guangxiao and his son, and didn't even hit the board.But being denounced is more uncomfortable for the father and son than hitting the board.

Although he was squeezed out by his clansmen, there was at least a way to go through the imperial examination.Now there is nothing.

Returning home in a daze, Meng Qinghai was bedridden, and Meng Guangxiao also suffered from a serious illness.

Meng Liushi had to take care of his father and son, so he was too tired to speak.But at this time, there were gossip women and idlers gossiping again, saying that it was Meng Qinghai's idea to exterminate Meng Qing and his family.Gossip alone is fine, but there are witnesses.

"It's so bad, it deserves retribution!"

Hearing such words, Meng Liu couldn't bear it anymore.When I met Meng Qingjiang going home, I held his hand and cried out of breath.

Meng Qingjiang did not tell Meng Liushi that because of Meng Qinghai's relationship, he was demoted from a hundred households to the General Banner.

The father and elder brother have already fallen, no matter how depressed they are, this family must be supported by him.In the past, the father and elder brother did wrong things, but now they can't make the same mistakes again and again.

Meng Qingjiang was implicated, and so was Meng Hu.But with the help of his peers who were born in Yanshan guards, the situation is much better than that of Meng Qingjiang.

The soldiers all believed that Xingning Boji was born in heaven, so nothing would happen.With Marquis Dingyuan's deep affection and two princes interceding, once the mastermind is found out, Bo Xingning will definitely be released, just wait for ten days.

But this wait is a full month.

In September Dingyou, Du Ping was sent to the execution ground.

Although the mastermind of the assassination has been identified, it has not been made public.

Emperor Yong Le simply played a trick, directly pinning the blame on Tartar's head.According to the original words of the emperor, it is either Oala or Tatar, anyway, it is you, no one else.

The Tatar envoy who had been left in the air for more than two months passed out directly, not knowing whether he was frightened or angry.Woke up, crying and shouting to see the emperor.It must be clearly explained to Da Tianzi that this matter has nothing to do with Tatars, does it have anything to do with it!

Hearing the news released by the frontier army, Wala was also stunned.Following Daning Kaiping, the frontier troops in Datong and Gansu also began to gather, and Mahamu couldn't sit still.Immediately dispatch envoys to rush to the border, this fact is too serious, it must be made clear!

Because the Oirat envoy rushed a little too fast and didn't make any gestures, he was directly shot and killed by the rangers on the side of the Datong frontier army.

Mahamu swallowed the bitterness, and then sent envoys to see the emperor of Ming Dynasty no matter what.Before departure, he told the envoys to print out the banners and flags.People can be sent again after they die, but if the time is delayed, the trouble will be big.

After discussing it, the leaders of Wuliangha felt that this was an opportunity to show their loyalty to Emperor Yongle, and collectively, dared to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor, they must not let it go!Wuliangha sincerely hopes to represent Daming and resolutely eliminate them!

In addition to the three tribes of Mongolia, the savage Jurchens also joined in the fun.

Due to the long distance and inconvenient transportation, the news has changed to Jurchen.

It is true that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was assassinated.

It is true that the person who assassinated the emperor was a Han.

The power of collusion between the killers is that the children of the Tartars really have it.This is a little tricky.

The Jurchen leaders were not calm anymore.This can't be calm.The Ming Dynasty drove Bei Yuan all over the grasslands, wouldn't it be easier to clean up himself?

After some discussions, the Jurchen leaders decided to organize a team to pay tribute to Beiping.Don't rush things too late, if you go late, the army of the Ming Dynasty may hit the doorstep.

In October of the first year of Yongle, envoys and tribute teams from Tatar, Wala, Wuliangha, and Jurchen savages arrived in Beiping successively.

In the same month, Meng Qinghe finally ended his prison life.

Walking out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the sun was a little dazzling.

Zhu Gaosui has been dispatched to Kaiyuan, and Zhu Gaoxu is specially waiting outside the prison.

Seeing Zhu Gaoxu, Meng Qinghe saluted and said, "I have seen Your Highness."

Looking at Meng Qinghe, Zhu Gaoxu remained silent for a long time.

Shouldn't Xing Ningbo be hungry for two meals before going to see him?

Does this look like he just got out of prison?

Glancing at Shen Xuan who was standing beside Meng Qinghe, Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and decisively threw this idea to the corner.
