Chapter 43

, the fastest update of the correct version of Zhao Jin and Pei Xiling who transformed into a Hou family widow and returned the dead ghost to her husband!

Hearing these words suddenly, the people watching also remembered that the guards of Pingyanghou's Mansion were all soldiers trained by Pingyanghou, and many of them had gone to the battlefield with him.

As for what Pingyang Hou was like in the past, how many achievements he made, and how he died, everyone knows.

After the strange silence in the crowd, the sounds of dissatisfaction and contempt finally followed one after another——

"Pingyang Hou Xianming I, how could there be such an unfilial son? If you ask me, it would be better to strangle him to death right from birth!"

"You still have the nerve to make such a fuss? How can someone who has done such an evil thing still have the shame? You are walking around the streets with your concubine in an upright manner, aren't you just looking for scoldings?"

"I have to speak my mind today even if I risk my life. Isn't it just because I got a good fetus? Marquis Pingyang is a great hero, but it doesn't mean that you can dominate and take advantage of it. Marquis Pingyang will take your life."

The military merit gained through hard work is not something unfilial sons can use to ruin it!"

The last sentence expressed the sentiments of many people.

Pingyang Hou Shizi was full of scandals, and the most they could do was gossip. They never had any dissatisfaction or contempt for Pingyang Hou Mansion because of this, because they respected Pingyang Hou and were grateful for his efforts. Although they were common people, they also knew how to be grateful.

But as this person said, they respected Pingyang Hou, not the Pingyang Hou Crown Prince who relied on Pingyang Hou's protection, but caused Pingyang Hou's troubles after his death, and even ruined his moral character and gave birth to a child during his filial piety!

He doesn't deserve it!

As the people around him cursed, Pei Chengzhi's face turned from red to blue, and then from green to black, which was extremely ugly.

Bai Yaoqing was a girl after all. She couldn't bear the scolding and the contemptuous looks of others, so she bit her lip and hid behind Pei Chengzhi with tears in her eyes.

For a time, the crowd was excited and the scene became more and more chaotic.

*

"very good."

After listening to Xixia's report, Zhao Jin was extremely satisfied.

The law does not punish the public. Even if Pei Chengzhi wants to cause trouble afterwards, it will be useless. As for the little gangster who caused the trouble in the first place, he must have left the capital by now.

Since she was going to do it, she would not leave any excuses to others. Even the little gangster might have thought that the person who hired him to do the job was someone from the Minister of Industry.

It is a well-known fact that Cheng Shangshu of the Ministry of Engineering has always been at odds with Marquis Pingyang.

Zhao Jin arranged for a lot of people who were like little gangsters. It would be troublesome for Cheng Shangshu to take the blame first. He was not unjust anyway.

"In the end, the people were extremely angry. The Crown Prince and Miss Bai left in embarrassment, presumably heading towards the house. The palace guards had already passed by," Xi Xia said.

"Don't worry about him for now. Whether he comes back or not is up to him." Zhao Jin then ordered, "Try to divert rumors from outside to the bad conduct of the noble disciples, and make sure to arouse the people's dissatisfaction and anger against the noble disciples."

"yes."

Zhao Jin took out a letter and gave it to her: "Send it to Duke Chengen's house. Remember, you must hand it over to Mrs. Chengen's house."

Xixia took it over.

Duke Cheng'en was the empress's father, and he was appointed as the second-grade bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. Although he had no real power, he had a certain say in the literary elite.

Once the common people are provoked to confront the nobles and become angry for the common people, the nobles will undoubtedly blame Pei Chengzhi as the culprit.

There was no problem with the military generals. They respected Pingyang Marquis and naturally couldn't stand Pei Chengzhi's unfilial father. Apart from the censor, the military generals were the ones who suggested deposing the crown prince.

At this time, the attitude of the literati is even more important.

From the perspective of the virtues most respected by literati, they naturally don't like Pei Chengzhi, who slanders the image of literati, but nothing can be accomplished. Didn't Emperor Jianwen see this clearly before and treat half of the court participants as if they were nothing?

?

Therefore, Duke Chengen's attitude is undoubtedly very important, and can determine the attitude of at least half of the literati.

In addition, the censor who relies on trolling people to make a living...

Civil servants, military generals, and nobles all expressed their opinions, but she didn't believe that Emperor Jianwen could act blind!

The situation developed just as Zhao Jin expected.

Pei Chengzhi's condescending attitude in the morning undoubtedly made the people extremely angry. Coupled with the secret promotion and deliberate guidance, the topic gradually transitioned from the unfilial piety of the prince of Pingyang to the unworthy conduct of the noble son.

The common people at the emperor's feet were well-informed, but at the same time some oppression also existed. This topic quickly made them feel empathetic and angry.

Gradually, the people's voices against the nobles became louder, and then it happened that Du Qi, the son of Princess Roujia, had a conflict with other guests in the brothel and beat each other violently.

This incident was very coincidental, but it completely pushed the conflict between the common people and the nobles to its peak, which cannot be ignored.

Some extreme people even talked a lot in public about right and wrong and the secrets they had learned about nobles. Many people had enough and became surprisingly angry.

They live in poverty with their hands, but some people are extravagant and enjoy all the glory, and in the end they will step on them.

After a fire starts, it will rise again as the wind blows.

Which family has no privacy, and which family has no enemies? Taking advantage of this shareholder turmoil to fish in troubled waters, many nobles and nobles' private secrets were exposed to the sun for a while, making people laugh at it. It was a trivial matter, and some people were involved in lawsuits.

But it couldn't be settled easily. Shuntian Mansion has been very busy these days.

Among them, the honorable ones are the most important. They don't show it on their faces, but in their hearts they hate Pei Chengzhi, the troublemaker and the cause of all the troubles.

The people's voice became much louder. Although Shuntian Prefecture also arrested some people under pressure, they did not suppress it, which only made the people's anger even higher.

Not only the courtiers saw it, but Emperor Jianwen also saw it.

Soon, some courtiers suggested that Prince Pingyang's conduct was unworthy and his virtue was not worthy of his position, so they requested that he be deposed.

Different from the last time, this time more than half of the civil servants and military generals participated in the performance, among which the nobles danced the most powerfully. The nobles led by the British Duke demoted Pei Chengzhi to nothing, as if the latter was a pool of water.

Mud, and they are like white lotuses emerging from the mud but unstained. They are ashamed to be associated with it, and they wish they could get rid of it quickly!

Although it is the people who scold them, it is not just talk that the law does not blame the people. Can they really capture all the people at the foot of the imperial city?

However, the anger in my heart must be vented, and the culprit must be punished!

They can't help the people, so why can't they help Pei Chengzhi?

Half of the civil servants and military generals participated in the performance, and the noble family was united as never before.

This time, Emperor Jianwen finally paid attention to it.

Zhao Jin was finally satisfied and praised: "Princess Roujia is very kind-hearted." Baba rushed to give her some heat.

Of course, this sentence is purely a joke.

Because the two of them are considered mortal enemies.

She had previously lamented that her face was one of the best in the capital - one that could be counted on one hand.

Unfortunately, Princess Roujia fell into the hands of this person.

In addition, the two of them are the same age, so they will inevitably be compared. Although they both lose and win, this is offensive to Princess Roujia, the sweet daughter of heaven. Later, when it came to marriage, the late emperor considered his own interests.

, the marriage was given to the second son of Princess Roujia and the mediocre An Yuanbo, but Zhao Jin married the young and promising Marquis Pingyang, which was one step ahead.

This is how Liangzi grew.

"Madam, the prince has returned home." Xidong came in and said.

Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, not surprised.

"But the prince's face doesn't look good... I guess he knows the rumors outside."

If the word Pei Chengzhi was no longer smelly, now it can be said that it is just a stone in a cesspool.

Of course, most of this is due to the nobles. Since the account was settled on Pei Chengzhi, they have been working hard to add to his reputation and strive to pull their own family out of the cesspool.

Not to mention the common people, they were so instigated that even an individual would have to curse a few words, otherwise he would seem to be out of tune with the crowd.

So one can imagine Pei Chengzhi's reputation now.

Zhao Jin put down the tea cup in his hand and sighed: "It's hard for him to still think about me."

Xichun's face looked a little strange.

Xixia said without hesitation: "Your Majesty is filial. Even though he is away from home, he is always thinking of you in his heart."

Zhao Jin nodded in agreement.

Xichun became even more silent.

By now, Zhao Jin had made no secret of his intention to give up his son in front of them, and Xichun also understood.

She had grown up watching several young masters, and she had some feelings for them, but they were not as good as her own masters, so she could only sigh.

After all, it was the prince who broke the madam's heart.

At this time, a salute came from outside: "I have met the Crown Prince."
