Chapter 148 Chunjia: I Am Still a Child!
The ink brush that Chunjia was grading suddenly stopped, his face was expressionless for a moment, then he looked up at Dan Chixia, and asked coldly, "The Ji family is full...is it true?"
"Returning to Your Majesty, Ji's current family in the Imperial Capital includes 113 women and children in the direct branch, and 347 women and children in the side branch, all of whom have been executed! Several of them are not in Ji's mansion and live long-term. In the outer room, he was also executed."
"In addition, there are family members... disciples... teachers... party members who came to the imperial capital to report on their duties..."
Zheng Fengyu spoke very carefully, and Zheng Fengsen added a few words for him from time to time. After a long while, the Zheng brothers finally reported how many people they had killed vigorously during this period of time, what identities they were, and the people in Ji's mansion. Chunjia, who had listened carefully to the arrangement of property, nodded in satisfaction, and immediately changed her face. She slapped the imperial case with her palm, and stood up and yelled: "You bastard! Even if the empress dowager has had one, even if Ji's goddaughter Wufang, after all, is the empress dowager's mother's family, the former emperor Xiaozong's family!"
"I just promised to mediate as much as possible when the Empress Dowager's clan gathers to discuss this matter, and you guys have made such a frenzied move, it's really heartbreaking!!!"
The Zheng brothers both prostrated themselves on the ground: "If you are guilty, you will be convicted!"
Beside Yanyin persuaded the emperor to appease his anger with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, take care of your body! What happened to the royal family, the Empress Dowager was already in grief just now, and she just said that I am sorry for Emperor Xiaozong. If you are also angry, but What should I do if I call the Empress Dowager?"
"Look at these two beasts!" Chunjia followed the long list, glared at the bottom, and said sadly, "Although the regent uncle is the biological son of the late Emperor Shenzong, he is the biological brother of the late Emperor Xiaozong, and they are brothers and sisters. The childlessness is all due to the actions of the empress dowager. It is natural to anger the Ji family, but it must be the decision of Uncle Wang who is angry because of my order to destroy his family. Since they know that Uncle Wang has no warrant from me, they should Persuade Uncle Wang!"
"And what about them?!"
"Instead of persuading Uncle Wang to appease his anger, he committed the crime knowingly!"
"How can I tell the Empress Dowager now?!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Yan Yin hurriedly said, "Everyone in the world knows the relationship between the King Regent and the late Emperor Xiaozong! Now that the King Regent is so angry, he is guilty of falsely proclaiming the holy order to kill the Ji family. Let the slaves tell the truth." This is also human nature, Your Majesty! As for the Empress Dowager, she is the biological mother of Emperor Xiaozong, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, whether it is Ji's mother or the Empress Dowager, how is Emperor Xiaozong important?"
He said sincerely, "The Empress Dowager must be able to understand Your Majesty, please calm down Your Majesty!"
However, Chunjia did not appease his anger. He was furious, furious, and roaring... In short, the entire Taichu Palace trembled under the emperor's thunderous anger that day.
Such a big commotion quickly alarmed the harem, but everyone didn't know what happened. The empress dowager said that Chunjia's plan was not going well, so she was relieved; Xuanqing Palace delivered a message, asking Yun Fenghuang to go to the front to persuade the emperor, don't let the emperor get too angry.
"How do you say this? When something good happens, you don't think of us, and you know that His Majesty is upset, so let our empress go?" Huanhua Palace politely sent away the palace servants of Spring Palace, Qingdu just sneered, let Zhu E, "Go, go to the back to see if the First Prince is crying? If so, our empress won't be able to get away."
"After all, our empress is not as cruel as the empress dowager. Although the first prince was not born by the empress, the empress has always treated her as her own. How could she be willing to leave the crying eldest prince out?"
Well, since Concubine Xian couldn't leave, it was logical to push this matter to Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui—Concubine Xuan was so angry that she couldn't help it, because she said in the Huanhua Palace that this was the empress dowager who was asking, the empress dowager The Queen Mother is still waiting!
She held back her anger and went outside the Taichu Palace. Chunjia's roar hadn't stopped at this time, through the thick door, she could hear the constant ping-pong-pong sound inside, it was the emperor smashing things to vent.
If Yun Fenghuang was here, I guess I wouldn't panic.
Because based on her understanding of Chunjia, if the emperor was really angry, he would not show it like this, but would keep it in his heart.
It is probably intentional to make such a big battle.
But Concubine Xuan didn't know, she was terrified when she heard the sound, and after deliberating for a long time, she let the servant in to report - how dare the servant? Knelt down and begged her: "Your Majesty, let's go back first, Your Majesty has been having a seizure for quite a while, and the slaves will be beaten to death if they go in at this time."
The maidservant would be beaten to death if she went in at this time, and she should not be a dignified Concubine Xuan, but who knows if Chunjia would be annoyed by this and be left in the cold?
Concubine Xuan waited outside for a while before leaving.
Not long after she left, the regent came. Compared with the Zheng brothers who were only covered with blood, the regent was even more exaggerated. He looked like he had been fished out of a pool of blood. It was crimson red, and even her cheeks were stained with two spots of blood that hadn't been wiped off in time.
When I walked in, the smell of blood was overwhelming!
Chunjia frowned, and stopped angrily scolding the Zheng brothers: "Uncle Wang?"
"...Naturally, he vented his personal grievances on the Ji family." The regent's face was gloomy, and he said angrily, "But I don't know how His Majesty plans to deal with Gu?"
He had reason to be angry, and the decision to kill Ji with a sharp knife was made when the uncle and nephew realized that Empress Dowager Ji liked to keep civet cats in the palace for other purposes when they were in the palace.
At that time, everyone agreed that Chunjia would stabilize the Empress Dowager and Ye Guogong on the scene, and the regent would contact the imperial army to kill the main figures of the Ji family with lightning speed. Slowly eradicate the remnants of the party discipline.
Of course, everyone knows in their hearts that the so-called slowly eradicating the remnants of the party discipline is just a nice rhetoric.
Once the Ji family collapses, the battle between the uncle and nephew will officially be put on the agenda.
But on the point of eradicating the Ji family, they are united.
So the regent didn't expect that Chunjia would not forget to trick himself when it came to the end - although he didn't know what the Zheng brothers said to Chunjia, but after taking down the Ji family, he turned around After a while, the two brothers disappeared. After inquiring, they said that they had come to the palace to have an audience. They didn't understand that the two brothers who "obeyed the orders of the regent" must be "ordered by the emperor" not to do human affairs. up?
"I can understand Uncle Wang's mood, but Grandmother..."
The regent interrupted with a sneer: "Now that no one else is here, you still have to act like this, is it interesting?"
Chunjia was not angry, and said calmly: "It's not interesting, but the world is like this, and the regulations always have to go."
"Rules?" The Regent smiled disdainfully and said, "What rules are you going to follow?"
"Naturally it was Uncle Wang who came to express his brotherly love with the late Emperor Xiaozong, crying and complaining about the late Emperor's laments of childlessness in his later years. I was deeply moved, and cried with Uncle Wang. I felt that the Ji family was gone anyway, so I couldn't do it." Let the imperial grandmother have something good or bad, so this matter must be kept from her old man first." Chunjia said softly, "There is also the empress dowager at the palace, there must be no similar things happening again, you must take good care of her. Let's wait until the clan members have arrived before making any plans. Otherwise, Uncle Wang made an unwise move at the moment, and it can be said that he was impulsive in a fit of anger. Sister, what is this?"
The regent said hesitantly: "Can you tolerate that poisonous woman Ji Sheng?"
Chunjia sighed, with a look of pity on her face: "Although the empress dowager did something wrong to the late emperor, she is my aunt after all. Is there any reason in this world for a son to criticize his mother? So what do the clan members think? Not to mention Empress Ji, I definitely can't wrong Empress Ji."
Speaking of this, the conversation changed, "Of course, if Mother Ji can't think about it herself, and follows the late emperor underground...then I can only beat my chest and lament that my parents' fate is not good enough, and that my father and mother all abandoned me, leaving me alone Living in fear in this world, I am dependent on the emperor's grandmother!"
The regent sneered and said, "Is it because your father and mother have abandoned your majesty, leaving your majesty to live alone in this world, with the archway of the empress dowager, enjoying the country's ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains?"
"Uncle Wang." Chunjia changed his tone softly, and said with confidence, "Uncle Wang and the late Emperor Xiaozong are brothers born of the same father, and they have a deep brotherhood! And what about me? The relationship between Uncle Wang and the late Emperor is even closer. , but in fact, everyone knows that I have never seen what the late emperor looked like when he was alive."
"It's reasonable for the empress dowager to do such a thing, and it's reasonable for Uncle Wang to falsely proclaim my life to pay with blood. Who can say 'no'?"
"But if it were me who did this, wouldn't people suspect that I was making use of it?"
"Then when the time comes, no matter whether you are in the government or the opposition, or your family members, how can you not question Uncle Wang, why didn't you persuade me?"
"After all, I am your junior, aren't I?"
"So the person who does this can only be you—you are my uncle, and everyone in the world knows about my relationship with Xiaozong. If you want to kill Mrs. Ji right now, don't say that I'm in the palace, even if you stop him At the gate of the mansion, you ask me, do I still think that I am the heir of Emperor Xiaozong, why do I have the nerve to stop him?"
The regent smiled angrily: "Since you are the eldest son of Xiao and avenged your stepfather, why shouldn't you do it?! You start to do it, and you are alone as the younger brother of Xiao, why do you want to stop—who wants to ask Gu Gu to bear the responsibility of himself? ! Or do you feel that Gu can't handle such a little thing, and you need to be so 'considerate'?"
Chunjia didn't care about the sarcasm in his words at all: "This is my fault, please don't take offense, Uncle Wang."
"If Gufei wants to be offended?" The regent said coldly, "What are your plans?"
After saying this, the atmosphere in the hall became stiff.
Chunjia was silent for a moment, then said in a slow voice: "Uncle Wang, although you and I are not related by blood, we are all members of the same family. Although the Ji family has been punished, the remnants of the party have not yet been eliminated. Let this be the chief culprit who really harmed Emperor Xiaozong and Uncle Wang, so there is a chance to breathe?"
"You've been saying that from the very beginning." The regent stared at him with a cold voice, "over the years, you've pinpointed Gu's loathing and resentment towards the Ji family, and every time you make progress and annoy Gu, you always use Ji's name Mouth. For the sake of the overall situation, I can't bear it anymore and I can bear it all over again! But now, the Ji family has been punished, and the mere remnants of evil are not to be feared, so you still want to use this to make Gu Ren swallow his anger?!"
"Or do you think that Gu is the Ji family, and you are allowed to test the bottom line again and again, waiting for the opportunity to destroy it?!"
"Uncle Wang thinks too much. You are my close relative, how can you be compared with the Ji family?" Chunjia softly comforted, "My biological father and stepfather passed away early, and I have always envied my son to be accompanied by Uncle Wang since childhood." Side, take care of asylum. Since I became the throne, I have also regarded Uncle Wang as my father in my heart, and in all kinds of actions, I also feel that Uncle Wang is unwilling to care about me, so I will do that."
"After listening to Uncle Wang's words today, I realized that I thought I was just playing with the elders, but it greatly hurt Uncle Wang's heart."
"I am here to apologize to Uncle Wang, and I hope that Uncle Wang will not argue with me because I am still young and ignorant."
"As for this matter, please calm down Uncle Wang, I will definitely give Uncle Wang an explanation!"
His posture was so low, and the regent hadn't made up his mind to tear himself apart with him right now, so he was silent for a while.
After a while, the Regent said: "That Gu is waiting for this explanation!"
After speaking, he stopped staying, turned around and left.
Chunjia watched him go out, squinted slightly, and then turned to look at the Zheng brothers below.
