Chapter 45

Except for Empress Zhu Youjian and Wang Chengen, the other thirty people in Zhengxin Palace who stood respectfully before the imperial case were not afraid to show off. They were all bigwigs from all parties and divisions of the Ming Dynasty today. At least civil servants were above the ministers, and the military generals were at least second-rank officials. However, there were two other parties involved in the hunting ground blood case... General Wu Sangui and Qingche Duwei Zhou Xian were exceptions.

However, Zhou Xian's face was pale, and his thighs were also eye-catching. He seemed to be still in shock. He stood behind everyone with his lame legs and seemed a little absent-minded, while his body swayed, and he seemed a little difficult.

This is in sharp contrast with Wu Sangui.

Brother Sangui didn't know what happy he encountered. Not only did he not see any tired look or horror on his face, but he was bright and radiant.

He is indeed worthy of happiness, because he did not hesitate to bring the injured Qin Xiaowan back to his home, personally came forward to take care of him, and contributed the Shaolin Dahuan Dan that he had always treasured and was reluctant to take. Although it was a waste of talent and even suspected of wasting natural resources, he gave Xiaowan's paper a chance to show his diligence to the goddess in his heart and achieved great results... Not only did he get Xiaowan's paper acknowledgement from Xiaowan's paper, but he also agreed to stay in the mansion for a few more days until he fully recovered. Therefore, Brother Sangui felt that the money was worth it, and he did not waste his efforts. He worked harder to win the goddess' heart as soon as possible on the basis of a great start to "heroes save beauty" and put a perfect end to his old unmarried days.

If the Ximen official learned about it, I wonder if this guy would be jealous.

At this time, the guy and Xia Kexiong entered the Zhengxin Hall. They didn't expect that there were so many people in the Zhengxin Hall, and the Empress was sitting upright beside the imperial desk.

As soon as the two of them came in, they obviously felt that the atmosphere was not right... The air was filled with tension and depression.

Affected by this, the two of them also held their breath and let their pace lightly.

"Report to the Emperor, I am not willing to let down the emperor's trust and have investigated the case of lion leaping on the hunting ground."

After meeting the old Zhu and his wife, Xia Kexiong felt that he had successfully solved the case, and was confident and straightened his back. Before Lao Zhu could ask, he had already spoken first, and was considering that he was seeking credit from Lao Zhu... This guy from Ximending is already charming enough, so don't be snatched away by this girl again.

This sentence was shocking and instantly attracted everyone's attention. Even Zhou Xian was shocked and looked over.

Zhu Youjian even glanced at him and said anxiously: "Come on quickly."

At this time, Xia Kexiong was not anxious, but he did not dare to suck Lao Zhu's appetite. He looked at Fu Xingsheng, who was standing beside Wu Sangui, and Fang Zhengrong said: "Your Majesty, this matter should be done by the Qing people. He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the Crown Prince's hunting to harm him, thereby disrupting our government and disturbing our people's hearts. However, the person who unbuttoned the chains of the floodgates and released the beasts was killed by Lord Ximen on the spot, and the body had been found. Now the Jinyiwei corpse is one of Yingzhaji's personal bodyguards."

He spoke with a certain tone and seemed to have seen it with his own eyes that it was Qiongren who unlocked the lion.

And his words of course made Fu Xingsheng and Wu Sangui breathe a sigh of relief, but also surprised Empress Zhou.

Today's meeting where all the important officials of the dynasty participated was that she forced Lao Zhu to hold an emergency.

Zhu Cilang is in danger, and then listens to Zhou Xian telling about everything that happened on the hunting ground. Queen Zhou Chapter 344 The civil and military officials in the court defy this bitch.

Not to mention, women's intuition is sometimes really accurate, but the truth of things is often covered up by illusions.

First of all, there have been many major earthquakes in the officialdom in the court recently, and some civil and military officials in the court were panicked. At this time, of course, it is the main focus of stabilizing people's hearts. Now such a big incident happened, Lao Zhu didn't want the matter to make too much trouble and involved too many people. Therefore, Lao Zhu resisted the pressure of his wife and never compromised, and took action against Concubine Yuan and the person responsible for the incident.

At this time, after listening to the story of Ximen Daren... When he rushed to the location of the accident, he saw a sneaky figure escaping into the central area of ​​the hunting ground, and he chased after him... In the field, except for Fu Xingsheng and Zhou Xian who knew the truth, they all believed Xia Kexiong's conclusion: this matter should have been done by the Qing people.

This result is better for Lao Zhu... It can not only make the civil and military officials in the court clear up their minds, but also unite people's hearts and share the same hatred of the enemy, and also make those doves who advocate peace and harmony against the Qing Dynasty for their own interests... They are bullied at their doorstep, but they are just talking nonsense.

However, the civil strife has not yet been settled, and the war is in full swing, and it has entered a critical moment. At this time, the Ming Dynasty had no ability or energy to declare war on the Qing Dynasty. It is necessary to have a fever and force the war to start, so two wars will be started at the same time... It is not a local war, but a full-scale war. For the Ming Dynasty, it is a mouse licking cats - seeking death.

Lao Zhu knew this very well. He was already over the age of having a fever. He frowned slightly and said, "So, did he be ordered by someone or did it without authorization? Now he is dead and has no evidence..." After pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "We are tolerant of this matter, but we must give them a warning. In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there is only one way to die! Kexiong, you send the corpse of the murderer to the residence of the envoy of the Qing Dynasty. Don't say too much. I want to see if they are brave and ignore the warning and dare to cause trouble again?!" This book [Let's stay up late to read] Read

As Xia Kexiong took the order and left, the Zhengxin Palace fell into silence again.

The original murder in the hunting ground was solved, and Empress Zhou had no reason to "make trouble unreasonable" anymore, so Old Zhu should announce the resignation of the meeting.

But Empress Zhou was still frustrated when she thought of Concubine Yuan’s open betrayal and Zhu Cixuan’s hatred for losing the “chicken”. She always felt that this matter would not be so simple, it must be related to Concubine Yuan, and even thought that Concubine Yuan and the Qing people joined forces... However, without evidence, she could only think about it. Now Zhu Cixuan has changed from a prince to a eunuch. Although it was a word difference, he suddenly fell from heaven to hell. Of course, he could no longer dominate the position of the prince. Otherwise, if a birdless person is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, wouldn’t he be laughed to death by the people of the world? Therefore, it is certain and necessary to re-establish the prince. So, Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Cizhao, and Zhu Cihuan, who will take the throne?

After learning that Zhu Cilang had lost his life, Empress Zhou thought about this issue clearly.

First of all, of course, I will try my best to protect my second son Zhu Cijiong. But I also know that Zhu Cijiong has lived in the shadow of Zhu Cilan since childhood. He has a cowardly personality and cannot support the mud. The resistance he encounters must be extraordinary. Then, he can only choose one from Zhu Cizhao and Zhu Cihuan. If it were the past, Queen Zhou would not have to think about it. She would definitely recommend the baby son of Concubine Yuan, a likable villain Zhu Cihuan. But now, she has the heart to strangle Concubine Yuan to death. How could she get such a huge advantage?! You must try your best to block it and kill it in the bud.

In this way, before Old Zhu could speak, Empress Zhou sighed lightly, looked at her husband with a low eyebrows and said with a pleasing look: "Emperor, the truth is revealed now. Thinking about my arbitrary decision just now, I really feel ashamed of my evil deeds. It is also because I am heartbroken that my life is so miserable, so I am so rude. I hope the emperor is magnanimous and not as good as my concubine, and can understand me."

Empress Zhou apologized so sincerely, what else can Lao Zhu say? He waved his hand quickly and said, "Queen, don't blame himself. I am heartbroken when Ci Yang suffered this accident."

"Your Majesty, I have figured it out. Since things have happened, heartache is useless. Besides, he can save his life, which is a blessing in disgrace."

"Queen, it is of course the best thing you can think of this."

Queen Zhou seemed to have figured it out completely, glanced at Wang Chengen, and smiled slightly, "Emperor, Chengen mentioned to you the deposed and appointed the crown prince. I think... it should be considered."

"Uh..." Zhu Youjian was stunned and looked at Queen Zhou in surprise. He was sure that she was not talking nonsense and wanted to trouble Wang Chengen. He said softly: "Ci Yang was seriously injured and still not awake. At this time, he would be a blow to him to depose the crown prince, which would be even worse for his recovery."

"What the emperor said is very much, but..." Empress Zhou slowly glanced at the ministers and said lightly: "I think that while all the ministers are here today, you might as well let them talk about their opinions first. It is also a precaution to share your worries for you, the emperor."

Queen Zhou said this, of course, no longer made unreasonable trouble. Instead, it made people feel that she put the overall situation first and had the style of a mother of the country. Of course, Lao Zhu was not easy to refuse, and he felt that she could no longer save the Empress.

He didn't say anything anymore, but just looked at the officials below.

But this topic is too sensitive and involves too many interest groups, which is obviously not suitable for public discussion.

For a moment, everyone stared at each other and no one spoke. Only idiots would be the first to be the one who stood up.
