Rebirth: Remarrying the Emperor's Uncle

Chapter 540

On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, after the morning court was suspended for two days, all officials resumed the morning court.

Those who are well-informed know that the son of Lord Zhen Guo was detained by the Criminal Ministry last night, so they speculate that the situation is getting worse, and the emperor is probably determined to deal with Lord Zhen Guo.

Everyone was uneasy and did not dare to discuss it, for fear of being caught by someone and suffering disaster.

Sure enough, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments declared the crime of Wang Mao, Duke of Zhen, to rebel against him and form a party for personal gain.All his official positions were taken away, and everyone in the whole family was detained in the prison of the Ministry of punishment.Members of the Wang clan within the fifth service, as well as a few officials including Commander Zhang Datong of the Jinwu Guard, were implicated and imprisoned.

Emperor Qingming used thunderbolts without mercy, all officials were silent, and no one dared to speak out for Duke Zhen.

The prince of Chengjun returned to his post, and the guards outside the mansion withdrew.

Luo Shangshu was promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet, and the minister of the Ministry of punishment made great achievements in investigating cases and served as the second assistant of the cabinet.

After the dynasty was over, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and the Imperial Forest Army got busy, arresting people and ransacking their homes.

At the end of the year, the Beijing city lost its flavor of the year, and a thick layer of haze shrouded the sky, making people panic.

The queen mother got the news and hurried to the imperial study.

"The Ai family heard that the emperor convicted the Wang family of treason and is raiding the house?"

Emperor Qingming said in a low voice, "Mother, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

The queen mother said angrily, "The Wang family is the mother's family of the Ai family! The emperor wants to destroy the mother family of the Ai family!"

Emperor Qingming looked at the Queen Mother, his eyes were full of chills, "If I continue to tolerate, this Jiangshan will not be named Zhao."

The Queen Mother looked at him incredulously, "How could Duke Zhen usurp the throne! He is the Prince's uncle! You only believe what other people say, why don't you believe what Duke Zhen said!"

"What happened last night, does the queen mother know?"

The queen mother shook her head, "The emperor is strict everywhere, and even dealt with the two eunuchs in Aijia Palace. The queen mother of Aijia is no better than others. How can I know what happened last night."

"Those two eunuchs went to the prison privately. If I don't deal with them, it will be a violation of the rules."

Emperor Qingming said, "Last night, Wang Mao sent people to the Zhang Da Commander's Mansion to make a confession, to deceive me that Wang Mao and Jiahe have a marriage contract, in an attempt to bind Chengjun King with them, and use Chengjun's innocence to prove their innocence. The queen mother said, if they didn't have ghosts in their hearts, why did they act like this?"

The Queen Mother frowned, why is the son so confused?Isn't this equivalent to not calling yourself!
Emperor Qingming said again, "I promised Zhao Chen the position of prince and Wang Can the position of chief assistant in the cabinet. They are still not satisfied and want to completely hold this country in their own hands. Queen Mother, if that time comes, you Is there still a way out?"

The Queen Mother's lips moved, but she couldn't say anything affirmative.

If Wang Can becomes the emperor, what is she, the queen mother?Naturally, it is necessary to make room for them, so that they can be justified.

Her mind was in turmoil, and after a long time, she finally found her own thoughts.

She shook her head slowly, "No, I don't believe they will conspire. This is all framed by others."

Emperor Qingming said indifferently, "When my mother is making things difficult for Jin Wang and Jin Wangfei, she should know that she is being used by Wang Can. Everything was picked by him. Now it is said that others framed it, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince me."

The Queen Mother deeply regretted that she had been kind to Zhao Chengyuan for 20 years, so why did she get confused and provoke him at this time.

If I left some leeway when I acted at that time, how could I have come to this point.

Thousand-year snow lotus, the gold medal for avoiding death, failed to save the Wang family, what else can she do?
The Queen Mother suddenly looked fixed.

Lao Qi, she can beg Lao Qi! ——
When Zhao Chengyuan and Han Youning were having lunch, Eunuch Wei came to invite Zhao Chengyuan into the palace.

Zhao Chengyuan didn't see him, and only asked Ye Chang to pass on the message, "The old disease has relapsed, and I'm afraid I will offend the Queen Mother."

Eunuch Wei cupped his hands in salute with a bitter face, "Guard Ye, please do me a favor and let the lord enter the palace no matter what. The empress dowager felt sorry for the Nanzhang princess a few days ago and hurt the lord for a moment. I really regret it." Very good."

Ye Chang sat down, squinted at him and said, "Don't, you are the chief eunuch of the Compassionate Ning Palace, there is a big row, why do you salute me?"

Eunuch Wei put Fuchen behind him, and stepped forward to help Ye Chang rub his shoulders and back, "The prince of Jin has a noble status, and you are the personal guard of the prince, who in the capital can't respect Ye Ye when they see him?"

After finishing speaking, the corners of Eunuch Wei's mouth twitched. What kind of surname is this? It's taking advantage of others.

Ye Chang had a look of enjoyment, "Eunuch Wei is good at serving people, since you call me grandpa, I will show you the way."

Eunuch Wei showed joy, "What is the way?"

Ye Chang pointed to his shoulder, and Eunuch Wei hurriedly continued to squeeze his shoulder.

Ye Chang then said, "Our concubine was wronged for no apparent reason and became the murderer who killed the princess of Nanzhang. The prince loves the concubine, so he was naturally unhappy, and this disease followed. To put it bluntly, this is a heart disease. If you want the prince to enter the palace, you have to solve his problem."

Eunuch Wei asked, "Then how to solve this heart disease?"

"Of course it solved our princess' grievances, stupid!"

Eunuch Wei smiled apologetically, "This...the empress dowager will definitely give the concubine justice. Nanzhang princess's illness must have nothing to do with the concubine Jin."

Ye Chang sighed, "There must be a sequence for this matter, the princess is still wronged, and the prince has to be by her side all the time, why would he want to enter the palace?"

Eunuch Wei talked all kinds of things, but in the end he returned without success.

He returned to the Palace of Compassion and Peace and reported the truth.

The Queen Mother sneered, "He asked him because of the Ai family, so he made a score!"

Eunuch Wei persuaded, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, you and the King of Jin have always had a deep love between mother and child. Everyone knows that. You were strict with the prince a few days ago. The prince is playing with you. He feels that he has been wronged. Going down the stairs."

The Queen Mother's expression softened a little, "Forget it, he wants the steps, and Aijia will give him the steps."

She got up and went out, "The Ai family will personally choose something good for Princess Jin, it must satisfy their husband and wife."

Eunuch Wei said in surprise, "Your Majesty, you haven't been to the warehouse for several years. You are really kind to Prince Jin. If the prince knows, all grievances will be gone."

The Queen Mother smiled wryly, "I don't know how much we can redeem the love between Aijia and his mother and child."

"Is the queen mother going to compensate the seventh brother?"

Emperor Qingming walked over, "That's very good, my son will accompany you."

Seeing his son, the queen mother couldn't help but feel cold in her heart, she said softly, "The Ai family wronged their husband and wife for a while, so they should be appeased."

Emperor Qingming smiled, and without revealing her thoughts, he helped her to the warehouse in the side hall.

The warehouse is full, there are large and small boxes and cages on the shelves on the floor, and there are various ornaments on several shelves.There are jade, coral, gold, and all kinds of huge rough stones, still holding a pipa half-hidden.

Emperor Qingming shuttled between several shelves, talking about the origins of some of the ornaments, and stopped in front of a huge rough stone.

"If I remember correctly, this is something left by my father, right?"
