Chapter 51 Yunfenghuang: This Story Haha.
In a blink of an eye, it was the opening day.
More people arrived this time than before—after all, the time was limited last time, and many people had already finished when they got the news, so they could only cry in vain. Afterwards, I heard that because Emperor Chunjia wanted to investigate thoroughly, the hall was opened again, so I naturally took the time to come over to watch the excitement.
Wannian County, as an important place in the capital city, was originally not comparable to ordinary county towns in scale. Even so, it was crowded by crowds from all directions.
Although the Empress Dowager and the others took away most of the entourage when they continued to go to the palace, because the emperor was still here, and the bigwigs involved in the Zheng Fengdi case also stayed, there were still enough people.
In order to protect the future of the students, Cui Wan went to the battle in person, and after some arrangements, no major troubles occurred.
Because of the emperor's euphemistic warning, Yun Fenghuang stayed behind and did not pass, so he could only send Chen Zhu to listen.
Chen Zhu was clever, and took away several quick-legged servants, and came to report every once in a while, but she received the news without delay: "...The scene is finally over? It's started? With a lot of witnesses? Tsk tsk."
Yun Fenghuang slowly stirred a bowl of nectar ice with a small silver spoon, and said lazily, "Forget it, it's hot, don't run around again and again, just wait for the truth to come out and tell Ben Gong. "
Emperor Chunjia made it clear that he had been prepared, otherwise he would not have put on such a big show. Thinking of this person turning his hands into clouds and raining his hands without saying a word, she became a little irritable.
Right now, I'm not in the mood to listen to the ups and downs in the middle of the interrogation - the upper echelons know that no matter how firm the truth announced at the moment, in fact, it is the truth after the agreement reached by all parties.
As for the real truth... huh.
She leaned back casually, and the soft sleeves slipped down, revealing a section of the white wrist that bullied Frost Saixue. Against the background of the water-red shirt, it was extraordinarily white and shining, so that the surrounding people The servants subconsciously avoided looking.
Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, and asked Xi Le to give a bunch of grapes to the little waiter who came to report, "You guys find a corner to rest for a while, you are not tired after going back and forth, I see I feel dizzy."
The little maid smiled and thanked him: "Thank you for the reward, my maidservant, I'll go and tell Little Eunuch Chen right now."
So no one came to bother me until half a day later, when the lunch time was almost over, Chen Zhu came back with a few servants out of breath, and said: "Madam, everything is clear, the Zheng family It is true that the little general trampled on young crops, but he did not do other things. Speaking of it, this is the first time I have heard of such vicious and cruel people among the rural clansmen, let alone at the feet of the emperor..."
"Let's have a sip of tea." Yun Fenghuang saw that his head was covered with sweat and his face was flushed from the sun, he raised his eyebrows, asked Liu Hong to pour some herbal tea, and flapped his fan carelessly, "Your majesty left and right I didn’t say when I’m going to leave, and I’m not in a hurry.”
The main reason is that I heard that Zheng Fengyi's crime was only trampling young crops, so I knew that the negotiation between the emperor and Zheng Gu must be very smooth.
This also means that she has no confidence when facing Chunjia...
Ji Shi, Cui Wan, Hushi General...how can they compare with each other!
In the case of taking the upper hand, the three parties together were suppressed by the emperor, and none of them could fight! ! !
Yun Fenghuang cursed in his heart, so that the next plot can be guessed, and he is not in a hurry to listen to Chen Zhu's report.
... This is not because she is sure that Zheng Fengfen must be the chief culprit who killed the Chen clan, but because, if Zheng Ju's performance cannot satisfy Emperor Chunjia, no matter whether Zheng Fengfen did it or not, the crime will be charged anyway. Definitely pin him on the head!
Otherwise, the emperor worked hard and kept secrets, and he had to quietly catch Zheng Fengfen, Zheng Gu's most beloved adopted son, and designed to make Du Langu, a well-known upright man in official circles, stand out in order to drag Cui. Wan went into the water, after such a setback, what was she trying to do?
To avenge Li Shu? Thorough investigation of the truth? Reward the good and punish the evil?
I'm afraid that ordinary people will believe this - in Yun Fenghuang's view, Emperor Chunjia may love the people like a son, but that must be a matter after the real power is in hand.
Before that, the emperor couldn't take care of himself. How could he have the time to feel sorry for a family of ordinary farmers?
Sure enough, Chen Zhu gulped down a bowl of herbal tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth and thanked him, and said: "Madam, the little general of the Zheng family went to the countryside with his entourage that day. There are a lot of young crops in the family field. At that time, the little general’s horse was running fast, but he didn’t pay attention. The servants behind found out that he was looking for Chen Jinxing to pay for the money. Originally, this matter would have ended here, after all, according to Huangcheng Si Duofang All the testimonials found after a thorough search said that the little general’s horse didn’t step on a few seedlings that day, and the family’s compensation was more than enough.”
"But someone in the Chen clan recognized the identity of the little general..."
"Then they want to frame Zheng Fengfen?" Yun Fenghuang asked indifferently, "It's really courageous!"
Chen Zhu apologized and said with a smile: "How dare they? They are thinking of pretending to be a tiger, and setting up Chen Jinxing's family property..."
This story, um, although there is no evidence, the previous trial process is so seamless that the deduction is seamless. It is estimated that the nearby teahouse will start to talk about how the Holy Son of Heaven has a clear vision to avenge the people - but Yun Yun Feng Huang still firmly believes that this is a story.
The story goes like this: Chen Jinxing's family is not considered wealthy, but they are well-known in ten miles and eight villages. His ancestors had grievances with another branch of the clan, and in his generation they still have no contact with each other, and they would have nothing good to say about them every day.
Everyone in the Chen clan knew about it, but they thought it was all from their own family, and if there were occasional quarrels or fights, it was fine if the elders scolded them a few times.
Who knew that there was a vicious and greedy person in that group, knowing that Zheng Fengyi had stepped on Chen Jinxing's family Qingmiao and returned to the Imperial Capital after making compensation, so he came up with a poisonous plan: colluded with the gangsters to kill Chen Jinxing and his family, and then poisoned Chen Jinxing The most beautiful granddaughter, sold into the Hussar General's Mansion who is recruiting maidservants!
In this way, not only can they share a share with the bandits, Chen Jinxing's family is dead, and according to the rules, the property is returned to the clan, and they can also make a fortune by preparing in advance. And Chen Jinxing's granddaughter was at the Hushi General's mansion, so she could just confuse the view and let Zheng Feng, who didn't know anything about it, top the vat.
"...Your Majesty praised Master Du in court." Chen Zhu looked at Yun Fenghuang's face and said cautiously, "If it wasn't for Master Du not being afraid of the powerful, and taking advantage of the time when the emperor was driving to the palace, His Majesty might not have said it at all. Knowing this! So not only Chen Jinxing's family was wronged by Jiuquan, but also General Zheng Xiao was splashed with dirty water without knowing it. For this reason, General Hushi asked General Zheng Xiao to thank Master Du on the spot, but Master Du didn't pay much attention to them... ...I just heard some people talking about it, saying that Mr. Du is afraid that he will not be able to rise to the top in the future!"
Yun Fenghuang smiled, thinking that this is of course.
At this moment, it is too stupid not to see that Du Langu is the emperor's person, or at least the person the emperor wants to win over.
That's right, even though Du Langu is Cui Wan's student, it sounds like he wants to unite with Cui Wan and continue to evade the emperor, but it's actually not the case. After all, he was a Jinshi during the Chunjia period. Even though the emperor was still a puppet at that time, he still belonged to the emperor's disciple in terms of status.
In addition, Cui Wan is not stupid, if the emperor does not improve at all, his apprentices will go to seek refuge, maybe he will be unhappy, thinking that he is ignoring himself as a teacher.
But after the summer banquet, the emperor started to get in touch with the government, and this time he quietly tricked the ministers... Obviously not the kind of master who is easy to fool.
No matter how much Cui Wan cherishes Du Langu, it's not just such a disciple, he has other old disciples, he has biological heirs, and his nephew Deng Chengzhai has so many people around the emperor, so what if Du Langu is robbed again?
Anyway, he is old now, and there is still a distance from being old, and he can still support Cui's family. Let Du Langu and Deng Chengzhai follow the emperor, the matter will be done, and the Cui family will have a guarantee in the future;
In short, it is better than holding on to someone, directly offending the emperor, and perhaps centrifuging with a student who wholeheartedly assists the emperor to be a wise king.
If he hadn't seen this kind of sign, Yun Fenghuang would not have asked Chen Zhu about this hometown last time, and asked the small kitchen to cook a few hometown dishes for him.
Of course, judging from the feedback later, this guy doesn't seem to appreciate much...
But it doesn't matter, this is the emperor's favorite young and promising courtier, and I'm afraid he won't be appointed as a marquis or prime minister in the future, and she can't believe it if he falls for her just because of a few dishes.
As long as the emperor doesn't stop her from getting in touch with the former court, she will take her time.
Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, encouraged Chen Zhu a few words, and then sent him off, but told Liu Hong: "Go to the small kitchen and tell me, prepare some of your majesty's favorite food, and I will go to your majesty's place later. Look."
... At this moment, the emperor in the front hall didn't know that he was about to usher in another condolence "made by his concubine himself", and he was still talking to Deng Chengzhai: "...for the time being, let's spare Zheng Feng for a while, and Chen Jinxing's family, Let people have a good burial."
The emperor's words were quite desolate, and his expression was also gloomy. He didn't have the joy and high spirits that just forced Zheng Gu and others to compromise, retreat or cooperate, and make a breakthrough for his power and status in the temple.
Deng Chengzhai then persuaded him not to worry: "The farmer's family has already gone, even if the truth is announced today, their family will not be able to survive. The left and right Zheng Fengzhai is still young, and the future will be long... I know that your majesty loves the people with all his heart, but at an emergency, General Hussars has managed the Imperial Army for many years and knows how to advance and retreat, His Majesty must give him face."
The emperor sighed and said, "Isn't it just for Chen Jinxing's family? How old is Zheng Fengyi this year? He has already committed such a vicious act. The so-called influence, you say, how many innocent people have been killed by Zheng's father and son over the years. A adopted son who has not had a long haircut is taught to be like this! Those who have been victimized are all my people, and they should be under my protection. But even now, I still want to make peace with the Zheng family, this..."
"Your Majesty, at this time and at that time." Deng Chengzhai said in a low voice, "Besides, Your Majesty has not been in power for a long time, and to achieve the results like today is already a gifted and wise monarch! Besides, Your Majesty regards the people as their own children, how can the people not respect and love them?" Your Majesty is like a parent? As a child, how can you not be sympathetic to the difficulties of your parents? Your Majesty has already done a good job."
He said in a lower voice, "This time the truth depends on Sun Yu's Huangcheng Secretary, but now the Huangcheng Secretary is the regent's man. Your Majesty, although this case is being tried in person today, it may not be possible to find out in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong, so he hurriedly added, "There is nothing wrong with imposing a crime—this case is being interrogated by His Majesty, and for His Majesty's honor..."
Let's find another reason to take care of the Zheng family and the regent in the future!
But the emperor shook his head, and said softly: "I am ashamed of the people, how can I use my false name to make Chen Jinxing's family wronged, and I can't get it right afterwards? The temple will be stable in the future, and the facts of this case must be clear and clear. Tell the world!"
He closed his eyes, "I'm sorry for Chen Jinxing's family, and I'm sorry for all the Li Shu who died unjustly over the years... I can't even deny them the truth!"
Deng Chengzhai was silent for a moment, and finally gave a deep bow, and said in a deep voice: "It is a blessing for the country and the people to have a monarch like His Majesty in the country! My ministers please follow me, and I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty and the country! I will die!"
The scene where the emperor and his ministers met in the front hall did not last long, and was interrupted by the speeding guards reporting: "The empress dowager and her party arrived at the palace two days ago, but the empress dowager suddenly suffered from an emergency. I don’t dare to be good at it, so please Your Majesty to go and preside over the overall situation!”
