Stay calm, don't panic, Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to reveal more news
Chapter 46 I climb, I climb
Account books of embezzlement and bribery, records of buying and selling official positions.
All kinds of evidence seized from the Lu family, and even the heads of the Lu family members that fell on the spot, completely shut up some officials who did not agree with the establishment of the Jinyiwei.
With more people working hard, some officials have restrained their petty actions.
They are afraid.
They were afraid that when they were sleeping in the middle of the night, the Jinyiwei's butcher knife would be hanging over their heads.
Now, once an official discovered that there were Jinyiwei around his residence, he would be eager to confess all the crimes of his ancestors for eighteen generations.
Cao You, who held the third-rank official position, suddenly went from being an unknown person to a hot figure in the capital.
There are countless people who come through the door.
But Cao You showed no mercy.
Ignore those who plead for me and beat those who give me gifts.
The main focus is on being honest and upright.
The Jinyiwei made it clear that they were standing in opposition to all the officials.
Some of the people who were tested were arrested by the Jinyiwei and treated as cases.
The capital city was in a state of panic.
The emperor was very satisfied with the result of the Jinyiwei's first attack with swords.
As for Fan Wen, he received a large amount of rewards after he recovered from his illness.
The emperor also specially appointed him as the magistrate of Qingshui County for three years, and if he made outstanding achievements after three years, he could be re-elected.
Within a month, the power of the Jinyiwei expanded rapidly, and the first places they went to were the jurisdictions of those officials related to Lu Wenbo.
Some were escorted back to Beijing and some even lost their heads on the spot.
The entire imperial court was shrouded in the shadow of the Imperial Guards.
This shadow reached its peak half a month later, during the beheading at the Meridian Gate.
The emperor issued an order and all officials supervised the execution.
The best heads rolled at the officers' feet, splattering hot blood on their cheeks.
The scene of the Jinyiwei chopping off heads with a grim smile became a nightmare for many officials.
After this battle, several officials in the court fell ill.
The emperor was very generous and granted the leave.
It took more than two months for the turmoil in the court caused by the Jinyiwei to subside slightly.
The fourth prince, who had been under house arrest for two months, had just been released. Faced with the drastic changes in the court, he became obedient.
There's nothing you can do if you're restless.
Many of his spies and officials who defected to him were killed in this purge.
It’s a good thing those people didn’t involve him.
He didn't dare to say anything more.
Amid the solemn atmosphere in the capital, a happy event also occurred.
It was the wedding of the prince and the daughter of the Lin family.
The wedding of a country's crown prince is naturally a grand affair.
The East Palace was filled with red.
On this day, the emperor gave all officials a day off and held a banquet in the palace for all officials to celebrate together.
There were also people distributing wedding candies on the streets of Beijing.
Children walked among them, singing nursery rhymes about the perfect match between the two.
The people enjoy the fun together.
In the bridal chamber of the Eastern Palace, Ji Qionghua was crawling on the red silk.
She didn't know how she was assigned the task of pressing the bed.
But since the other party was her brother the Crown Prince, she had no choice but to accept it.
She is almost half a year old now, which means she is one year old if we round it up.
Recently she is ready to "speak".
As for walking, the baby's bones are too soft and need some time to develop, so she didn't force herself.
As he crawled along with a grunt, Ji Qionghua heard the sound of someone trying to hold back a laugh nearby.
She is Lin Xi, the eldest sister from Lin Yao.
The prince was afraid that Lin Yao would be bored in the bridal chamber, so he specially asked her eldest sister to accompany her.
"elder sister."
Now that there was no one else around, Lin Yao didn't follow the rules so much. She lifted her veil to remind her sister not to be too proud.
You know, the little princess has a strong self-esteem.
No, I won’t do it anymore.
Sitting upright on the bed, with eyes wide open, he looked mischievous.
Lin Yao couldn't help laughing either.
On such a happy day, Ji Qionghua looked sullen for a moment, then continued to grunt in frustration.
【I climb, I climb! 】
If anyone lets her press the bed again, she will charge him a fee.
Lin Qian trembled for a while, then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looking a little lonely.
"Eldest sister, what happened?"
Lin Yao noticed it keenly and asked with concern.
"nothing?"
Lin Qian shook her head: "Today is your big day, you should be happy."
But even though she said this, the gloom in Lin Xi's eyes could not be removed.
Lin Yao knew her sister's personality. It couldn't be a trivial matter that could make her so sad.
"Sister, you and I are family, we can't have different opinions."
"You can't let me be happy and let my sister be sad."
"Just tell me."
Lin Yao was acting coquettishly.
She is the youngest sister and is away from home most of the year, so her older brothers and sisters dote on her very much.
Once Lin Yao starts to act coquettishly, Lin Qian is helpless.
"Okay, okay." She patted Lin Yao's arm and sat down.
"It's between me and your brother-in-law."
Lord Lin was the Grand Tutor, holding the first-rank official position. Since Lin Qian was the eldest daughter, it was natural that she would marry a high-ranking official.
Her husband's family is the Marquis of Zhengping.
Marquis Zhengping saved the late emperor once and made great contributions, so he was specially granted the title of Marquis. As long as his descendants do not commit any unforgivable crimes, the title will be hereditary.
Marquis Zhengping has no real power, but given his status, no one in the capital dares to mess with him.
When Lin Qian married into the royal family, she would become the legal wife of the only son of Marquis Zhengping, and she would definitely be the future marquis's wife.
I heard that the wife of Marquis Zhengping is pretty good now. Logically, Lin Qian shouldn't have any worries.
"Is there something wrong with your relationship with your brother-in-law?"
Lin Yao was worried.
"If my brother-in-law dares to do you wrong, I will definitely take care of it for you."
This is the good thing about marrying into a royal family.
"No, there is no problem with my relationship with your brother-in-law."
Lin Xi quickly shook her head and then sighed.
"It's mother-in-law."
"You also know that the lineage of Marquis Zhengping has always been one-man rule, and this generation only has your brother-in-law as his heir."
"My mother-in-law feels guilty for not giving my father-in-law more children, so she is urging me to have children now."
"But giving birth to a child is not something I can do just by thinking about it."
A year ago, she gave birth to a daughter.
The mother-in-law dotes on her daughter, but she is not a son after all.
The son is the one who carries on the family line.
My mother-in-law has been driven crazy by her obsession for many years. Seeing that there is no sign of the second baby, she can't help but urge her.
She gained a lot of weight from the supplements she took all day long.
She also wants to have a baby, but there is no sign of it.
Just during these few days, she heard a voice in the mansion saying that her mother-in-law was preparing to bring back a concubine for her husband.
She didn't know whether it was true or not.
But she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
She wanted to ask, but was afraid of ruining her relationship with her mother-in-law.
After all this time, I felt a knot in my heart.
At this point, Lin Yao finally understood.
"Sister, have you seen a doctor?" Lin Yao was worried that there was something wrong with her sister's health.
"I've seen the doctor, he said he's healthy and we just have to wait for fate."
"Didn't they say before that Qingyun Temple is very effective in praying for children? I wanted to go and have a look, but I was delayed."
“But luckily I didn’t go.”
Thinking of what happened in Qingyun Temple before, Lin Qian also sighed.
"It's a good thing I didn't go."
Lin Yao answered.
If I go, my relationship with my brother-in-law will really be in trouble.
But she heard that after the incident at Qingyun Temple, many women in the capital suddenly became seriously ill and either went to a quiet place to recuperate or simply became bedridden.
Several others died of illness.
It can be seen that the truth about Qingyun Temple was finally known.
But those people were in sync, with green hair on their heads, and none of them spread the news.
