Chapter 94 Emperor Zhang Jing, thorough investigation
When Qin Su finished dealing with the ministers and the remaining government affairs, when he came out of the imperial study, he happened to see the sixth prince, Qin Yun, standing at the door of the imperial study.
"Brother Liuhuang has something to do with me?"
Qin Su walked over, and the smiling tiger sixth prince, who always smiled impeccably, was rarely expressionless, and just looked at Qin Su coldly.
"How did Brother Three Emperor die?"
Although the royal family is ruthless, it is inevitable that there is a distinction between closeness and closeness. Although the third prince and the sixth prince are not easy to deal with, they are brothers for more than ten years. If such a big thing happened, it would be false if they were not touched.
Of course, the reason why the sixth prince came to ask Qin Su was because his first guess was that Qin Su had done something to the third prince.
Qin Su met the eyes of the sixth prince Qin Yun without evasiveness, "Brother Three Emperor died for two reasons, one is poisoning, the other is assassination, I disdain to use these low methods."
"Poisoned?"
Qin Yun frowned, "Are you sure?"
"Otherwise what is it?" Qin Su took a step forward and asked Qin Yun back.
"The seventh brother told me that it was an assassination, and the third brother was stabbed dozens of times, but he didn't mention the poisoning."
Qin Yun also looked at Qin Su.
"Brother Sanhuang hasn't been buried yet, if you don't believe me, go to Dali Temple to see for yourself."
Qin Su didn't have time to explain to Qin Yun, so he bypassed Qin Yun and returned to Zhengyang Palace.
Qin Yun stood where he was, looking at Qin Su's back for a long time.
From the time Qin Su said he was poisoned just now, Qin Yun knew that Qin Su was not responsible for this incident. Although Qin Su has a bad temper, he has always disdain to lie, let alone use poison.
If it wasn't Qin Su, who would it be?
Qin Su didn't care about Qin Yun's thoughts, she was in a hurry to find Qin Miao.
"What are you doing in such a hurry? Reincarnation?"
Qin Miao, who was pruning branches in the yard, didn't turn his head. From the sound of footsteps, he could tell that it was Qin Su.
"Father is going back to Beijing."
Qin Su cut to the chase.
Qin Miao turned around and put down the scissors, "It's been less than a month, is it because of Concubine De and Lao San?"
Qin Su nodded, "Today, the minister proposed to let the father come back to preside over the overall situation. I have sent someone to deliver the letter. It is estimated that the father will arrive in Beijing in three to five days."
After listening to Qin Su's words, Qin Miao was not surprised, it was reasonable, "It's fine if the father comes back, let the father handle this matter, whether you find out the old man or who, it has nothing to do with you. "
"It's just that the emperor came back and dealt with the funeral affairs of Concubine De and Brother Sanhuang, so it's time to go to the Summer Resort."
Of course, Qin Su also knew that there were good and bad things about this matter. The good thing was that he could use the hands of his father to deal with the old eighth.
"Father is going to the Summer Resort, and he will definitely keep people in the capital. Don't talk too much, let father decide for himself, and see what father means."
Qin Miao thought about it, and decided to be more conservative, too radical, it may backfire.
Qin Su also understood Qin Miao's meaning and complied.
Five days passed in a blink of an eye, when Qin Shuxia returned to the imperial study in the early morning, he saw Eunuch Li at the door of the imperial study.
Qin Su paused, "But Father is back?"
"Go back to Your Highness, His Majesty is waiting for His Highness."
Eunuch Li stood at the door and replied to Qin Suxing.
Qin Su nodded and walked in, only to see Emperor Yong Le sitting behind the dragon table, flipping through the notes on it.
"I send my respects to the royal father. Is the royal father's trip going smoothly?"
Emperor Yong Le raised his head, looked at Qin Su who was much thinner, and the momentum that had been brewing for a long time fell short, "Xun'er, come here quickly, let Father Huang see, why are you so thin?"
"The office of superintendent,
The responsibility is heavy, entrusted by the father and the emperor, the sons dare not slack off. "
There was no joy on Qin Su's face, he walked to Emperor Yong Le's side, eyes half downcast, "Because of Concubine De's incident with Brother Three, my son and minister are exhausted physically and mentally, and cannot sleep peacefully, I am ashamed of my father's entrustment."
"Xun'er, how can you be blamed for this matter? Your Brother San Huang was the one who killed his siblings. You ruled according to the law, which is what you should have done, but he fled in fear of crime. That's why the accident happened. You should not be blamed anyway."
Emperor Yong Le pulled Qin Su to sit down, and asked Eunuch Li to serve Qin Su some tea.
"Father really doesn't blame Erchen? Then why didn't you write to Erchen this time when you returned to the capital?"
Knowing daughter Mo Ruo father, also knowing father Mo Ruo daughter, Qin Su naturally understood Emperor Yong Le, if someone hadn't said something in Emperor Yong Le's ear that shouldn't be said, Emperor Yong Le would not even say hello when he returned to Beijing She hit?
Also, when he came in just now, Emperor Yong Le, who had a headache when he saw the scriptures, actually looked at the scriptures with a sullen face, and didn't greet him, obviously angry and ready to question him.
As expected, Emperor Yongle was rendered speechless by Qin Su's rhetorical question. He sighed, and then his face sank again, "It's the father's fault. Father shouldn't listen to what other people say. It's just that someone told father , you did this matter, Xun'er, tell your father personally, is that right or not?"
As expected, Qin Su was not surprised.
"Father actually listened to such a villain's slander?" Qin Su took a step back and looked at Emperor Yongle in disbelief, "Okay, Father wants to hear from the minister himself, and the minister there will tell Father that Brother Sanhuang is not a minister Killed, if the minister kills the third brother, the minister there will die a bad death, and his bones will be ashes after death, and he will never be reborn forever!"
"Xun'er!"
Emperor Yong Le looked at Qin Su who raised his hand to swear with red eyes, and suddenly panicked. He stood up quickly and tried to stop Qin Su, but Qin Su avoided him.
"Royal Father," Qin Su still looked at Emperor Yong Le, "I want to find out who killed Brother Sanhuang more than anyone else, and who wants to blame my son!
The concubine de concubine thought that it was Erchen who killed Brother Sanhuang, so she took a cup of green vitriol oil from a food box and poured it on Erchen. If it weren't for the palace servants desperately protecting each other, father and emperor would not see Erchen today, and now The royal father is also suspicious of his son..."
With a tear, Qin Su raised his head, raised his hand and took off the golden crown of nine phoenixes on his head, and threw it to the ground, "It's my son's fault, so I will go back to the palace and confine my feet, who will be the supervisor of the country? To whom, my son will leave!"
Qin Su turned around and left, completely ignoring Emperor Yong Le's persuasion, he walked quickly from the Imperial Study Room back to Zhengyang Palace, the gate of the palace was tightly closed, he really wanted to close the palace and confine his feet.
Emperor Yong Le picked up the nine phoenix crown that Qin Su had dropped from the ground, with a sad face on his face, "It's my mistake to blame Xun'er."
Eunuch Li saw it clearly from the side, "You can't blame your majesty entirely, the person who said this
Everyone, it is very likely that someone deliberately framed the eldest princess. "
Emperor Yong Le glanced at the Nine Phoenix Crown in his hand, and remembered what Qin Su said.
"It is said that the imperial concubine of Jin is here, and I want to ask about the concubine De."
The imperial concubine of Jin had just heard the news that Qin Su had returned to the palace in anger from the imperial study, she received a summons from Emperor Yongle, she knew what to do, and followed Eunuch Li to the imperial study.
After two or three gossips, Emperor Yong Le looked at the imperial concubine Jin, "My dear concubine, the death of Concubine De, please tell me what happened?"
The imperial concubine Jin's heart skipped a beat, she knew that something was going on.
Thinking about it, Jin Huang Guifei explained clearly to Emperor Yong Le truthfully, every detail was explained clearly, without any omission.
"Concubine De lost her beloved son and lost her mind for a while. She didn't know where to get the highly poisonous green vitriol oil. She knew that she might not be able to kill the eldest princess, but she wanted to destroy the eldest princess. At that time In the imperial garden, there were not a few people in the palace. Later, the eldest princess’s personal guards shot and killed Concubine De by mistake, and it was really a last resort. Press it down, please Your Majesty to learn from it."
Listening to the words of the Imperial Concubine Jin, Emperor Yong Le slowly clenched his hand, it was really exactly what Qin Su said.
"Then how is the girl of the Shen family doing now?"
The imperial concubine of Jin sighed and shook her head slightly, "Ms. Shen was seriously injured because of the assassination, she disappeared and suffered from loss of soul. She just got back, and then she was so stimulated. Even if she passed out, she was finally killed by Shen. The prime minister and his wife took them back to the prime minister's mansion and found a secluded place to recuperate from their illness, and they couldn't even see strangers, and even the eldest princess couldn't visit them."
"Xun'er has suffered during this time."
Emperor Yong Le saw that the concubine Jin Huang Guifei answered her fluently, and he believed it completely in his heart.
The imperial concubine of Jin didn't answer what Emperor Yongle said, but just lowered her head and waited for Emperor Yongle's next question.
"Aifei is also tired."
"I don't dare to say I'm tired of my duties. Your Majesty is exhausted. It's better to take a rest earlier. I will resign."
The imperial concubine of Jin did not drag her feet, and retreated after Emperor Yongle agreed.
After leaving the Imperial Study Room and returning to Jing'an Palace, the imperial concubine Jin was sitting on the seat, holding a teacup and looking at the foam on it, "Chuan Yunmei came to Jing'an Palace tonight, and then sent a message to Zhengyang Palace, everything is in order. "
Sitting in the Zhengyang Palace, Qin Su, who was rarely able to rest, was soaking in the clear pool. Hearing the news of the Twelve Returns, he slowly closed his eyes. Gossiping in front of the emperor."
After Twelve went out to answer the person in charge of delivering the letter, he returned to Qin Su, "Your Highness, do we really care about nothing?"
"No matter, take advantage of this time to have a good rest, I will be busy in the future."
Qin Su leaned against the pool, and everything was still expected. The rest of the mess was left to the father to deal with. She wanted to see what she could find out.
Tapping the edge of the pool lightly with her fingers, Qin Su was surrounded by a layer of mist, and no one could see her expression clearly.
If Qin Su's only unexpected thing was Emperor Yong Le's suspicion of her, thinking of this, Qin Su slowly clenched his hands tightly, maybe one day Father will find out that the daughter he holds in his hands is actually like this An unscrupulous person.
Twelve looked at Qin Su's back, lowered his eyes, and quietly retreated out.
Qin Su said that he was confining himself to the palace, so he really confines himself to the palace, no matter if Emperor Yongle came here in person, or sent someone to send gold, silver and jewelry, various rewards, and even the imperial concubine and concubine sent by Emperor Yongle. Qin Miao, all of them were turned away.
The gate of Zhengyang Palace has never been opened since Qin Su said his feet were banned.
"How should this be?"
Three days passed by in a flash, Emperor Yong Le anxiously rested his forehead in the imperial study, looked at the mountain of papers, and looked at the pile of ministers in front of him who were staring at him. These things were all handled by Qin Su, he How do you know?
"Your Majesty, the funerals of Concubine De and His Royal Highness the Third Prince are imminent."
"Your Majesty, when will the trip to the Summer Resort start?"
"Your Majesty, there's news from the East China Sea that the plague in Yasukuni has spread dramatically, and it's out of control!"
"Your Majesty, there are still many doubts about the case of the third prince, and the Eldest Princess suspected that the third prince was also framed by others, this is..."
"His Majesty……"
A group of people quarreled so that Emperor Yong Le's head became dizzy, "Do you really want to ask me everything?"
Everyone looked at each other, they were all stunned by what Emperor Yong Le said.
"...May I wait to ask His Majesty who?"
Emperor Yong Le simply looked at Eunuch Li, "Eldest Princess still doesn't want to go out?"
"Go back to your Majesty, that's true."
Eunuch Li is also embarrassed, he has to run [-] times a day to Zhengyang Palace, and all the replies he got are that the eldest princess is under restraint, without exception.
"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be decided early. Every day of delay will cause countless lives to die."
The most important thing among them is the matter of the East China Sea, and the minister kept urging him.
"The eldest princess didn't explain it before?"
Emperor Yong Le was really annoyed and had a headache, these things were handled by Qin Su, and he didn't know what happened, he usually relied on the minister, but now the minister asked him in turn, what can he say?
Prime Minister Shen stood beside him. He hadn't spoken before, but now he stood up, "Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess has made arrangements before, but at this moment and at that moment, the previous method is no longer feasible, and we need to make up our minds."
"Then according to Shen Aiqing, what should I do?"
Seeing that Prime Minister Shen finally stood up, Emperor Yong Le seemed to finally see some hope.
Prime Minister Shen glanced at all his colleagues, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty was not in the capital earlier, and these matters were handled by His Highness the Eldest Princess. Presumably, Your Majesty does not understand the cause and effect, so it is naturally difficult. Why don't you invite the Eldest Princess out and ask the Eldest Princess? What do you think?"
"The problem now is that the eldest princess has grounded herself, so she can't come out behind closed doors?"
Emperor Yong Le felt that his voice was gnashing his teeth a bit, how could he feel that this Prime Minister Shen was always picking up which pot?
"How about this, let me wait to invite the eldest princess, even if it is for the people of Dayong, the eldest princess must not just sit idly by."
Prime Minister Shen seemed to speak after thinking twice.
Emperor Yong Le really had no choice but to agree, "If this method is useful, then give it a try."
All the ministers jointly wrote a petition letter and handed it to Zhengyang Palace. Prime Minister Shen stood first, and all the ministers stood one by one, waiting for Qin Su's reply.
Looking at the letter written by Prime Minister Shen, Qin Su was dressed in plain white, with only three plain hairpins on his head, and nodded slightly, "The time has come."
The gate of Zhengyang Palace opened again, and Qin Su who was inside the gate glanced at Prime Minister Shen who was standing in the front, and the two exchanged glances indiscriminately.
Emperor Yong Le, who was waiting anxiously in the imperial study room, heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the gate of Zhengyang Palace opened, and told Eunuch Li to quickly take the previous rewards and go to Zhengyang Palace.
He didn't choose another place, just at the gate of Zhengyang Palace, Qin Su asked someone to bring the book case, sat in the gate of Zhengyang Palace, corrected the handed-in papers one by one, and explained what was to be explained on the spot.
This is what Emperor Yong Le saw when he came, it looked like a soup kitchen in a refugee camp, except that your lords are not refugees, and the booklets you hold in your hands are not porridge bowls.
Emperor Yong Le stood beside him, just watching quietly, Eunuch Li next to him knew that Emperor Yong Le didn't want to delay their time, so he also stood there, who knew that at this stop, half a day passed.
When it was about the same time, Emperor Yong Le brought people forward, and everyone hurriedly saluted, Qin Su also got up and saluted.
"Excuse me, excuse me," Emperor Yong Le quickly helped Qin Su up, "Is Xun'er tired?"
Qin Su glanced at Emperor Yong Le, "Thank you, Father, for your concern, I am not tired."
All the ministers watched from the side, leaving one after another, and finally only father and daughter were left.
Emperor Yong Le ordered the rewards to be moved into Zhengyang Palace, "Xun'er, it's because of the father's fault, because the father listened to the slander and misunderstood Xun'er, don't be angry with Xun'er, the father will definitely give Xun'er justice. "
Qin Su glanced at the rewards, but this time he didn't ask anyone to take them back, "I'll just wait for my father to give my son justice. Father please return first, my son is tired."
The gate of Zhengyang Palace was closed again.
Standing in front of the closed gate, Emperor Yong Le had a headache, but there was nothing he could do, it was his fault in the first place, the only way now is to quickly find out the real culprit who killed the Third Prince.
"Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess said that she will move to the Summer Resort in three days, and also said that according to Qin Tianjian's calculations, the funeral arrangements for Concubine De and the Third Prince will be arranged tomorrow. Is this too hasty?"
Eunuch Li was also by the side just now, so he could naturally hear Qin Su's arrangements. This counts as a day, and it is indeed not very plentiful.
"Xun'er said so, so it is." Emperor Yong Le is now only thinking about how to find out the murderer who killed the third prince, "tell Dali Temple, within three days, the case must be clear, otherwise I will take their heads off!"
Eunuch Li is dumb, "Yes."
After everyone left, Qin Su who closed the gate of Zhengyang Palace sat in the pile of gold, silver and jewels bestowed by Emperor Yong Le, opened the boxes one by one and counted them one by one, "Tsk, father is really bleeding a lot this time. "
Chishui and Twelve followed behind Qin Su, "Your Highness, how long do you plan to ground yourself?"
"Confine your feet until the case of Brother Three Emperors comes to light."
Qin Su had planned a long time ago, she was determined not to intervene in this matter, so she could only let Emperor Yong Le handle it, in fact, if Emperor Yong Le was not too lazy, she should have gone out by now.
"But what if His Majesty can't find out?"
Chishui was very worried about this.
"Isn't there conclusive evidence at Dali Temple? As long as the father wants to check, what can't be found?"
Although Qin Su grounded herself in Zhengyang Palace, she couldn't hide any troubles outside, especially in Dali Temple.
It depends on how Emperor Yong Le judges.
The two days passed quickly, and finally, on the morning of the third day, the Minister of Dali Temple put the evidence that was found in front of Emperor Yong Le.
Looking at the scimitar and the old eight's fingers, Emperor Yong Le felt that his eyes were darkened. Although Qin Su was the only child he raised personally, Qin Su was the one who cared the most, but the other children also cared about it. .
Now looking at this kind of scene of fratricide, Emperor Yongle only felt heartache, the third wanted to kill Qin Su, and the eighth took advantage of the chaos to kill the third, what was all this for? !
After the morning court, Emperor Yong Le sat in the imperial study room, Dali Siqing stood in the middle, constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Tell the eighth to come over."
When Emperor Yongle's will reached the ears of the Eighth Prince Qin Jun, Qin Jun was in Concubine Shu's palace, and suddenly looked at Concubine Shu with some helplessness.
"It's nothing, Jun'er, you just go first, remember, don't panic."
Concubine Shu's heart skipped a beat, but at this time, what she fears most is panic.
The eighth prince listened to Concubine Shu's instructions, nodded in response, and followed Eunuch Li to the imperial study.
"Eunuch Li, the emperor summoned the palace, why?"
Although Concubine Shu told her not to panic, the Eighth Prince was still young and somewhat confused, so he couldn't help but ask Eunuch Li first.
When Eunuch Li heard that the voice of the eighth prince was trembling, he could guess one or two, and sighed in his heart, "The eighth prince will come with the slave, what's the matter with your majesty, how will the slave know?"
The eighth prince was even more flustered when he heard Eunuch Li say this.
In the imperial study room, after the Eighth Prince saluted, he looked up and saw the Minister of Dali Temple standing next to him, and Emperor Yong Le with a dark face. He tried to calm down, "Imperial Father summoned my ministers, what orders do you have?"
Emperor Yong Le looked at the Eighth Prince coldly, "Old Ba, I remember you love to collect rings?"
The eighth prince glanced at his hand with six rings on it, and silently hid it behind him, "Father, I know my mistake, and I will definitely not dare to be extravagant again from now on."
Emperor Yong Le looked at the Eighth Prince who replied that the bull's head was wrong, and threw the golden wrench to the Eighth Prince's feet, "Open your dog eyes and see, is this your thing?"
The Eighth Prince was taken aback, and his whole body was trembling. He bent down and picked up the golden wrench on the ground, and suddenly remembered that this was the wrench he lost on the day he went to ambush the third emperor brother. His eyes widened immediately, Straight to the ground.
Looking at the current scene, what else does Emperor Yong Le not understand?
For a moment, I felt like a knife pierced my heart, "You can even kill your own royal brother, old man, what else can't you do?!"
Hearing Emperor Yong Le's stern shout, the Eighth Prince was even more despondent and kept pleading guilty.
Emperor Yong Le really couldn't bear to look any longer, and waved his hands, "Brothers were killed, brought down, demoted to common people, imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum for life, not allowed to take half a step, concubine Shu helped the evildoers, thrown into the cold palace... the rest, then punished."
As soon as Emperor Yong Le said this, it was regarded as an end of the matter.
After everyone left, Emperor Yong Le looked at the scimitar left in front of him, and felt that his eyes were turning black.
Nine princes and one princess, three of them have gone now, the fifth and the eighth were demoted to commoners, imprisoned in the imperial tomb, and the third died tragically. Is it true that as the old Taoist said, ten sons survive one? !
-
Amidst the chaos in the capital, Shen Yi and Yu Kong had already traveled all the way south, and they were approaching the South China Sea area. Shen Yi finally learned some superficial lessons from Yu Kong, and he was able to handle things like checking accounts with ease.
"Master, you mean let me go by myself?"
Shen Yi glanced at Yu Hong who was lying leisurely by the sea, feeling a little uneasy.
"Yes, you have been with me for so long, and it is time to be your own. This time is considered a trial for you. Go ahead and show your momentum. Master is optimistic about you."
As he got farther and farther away from Beijing, Yu Hong's unreliable nature was exposed more and more thoroughly, and now he felt like he wanted to be a shopkeeper.
Shen Yi counted the days, and it's not even half a month if he's done all the calculations, why is it so long?
But looking at Yu Hong who had closed his eyes, Shen Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and go. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and there is always a first time for everything.
The author has something to say:
