I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

Chapter 396: Proclamation of War

People stood quietly on the steps.

Her soft hair blown by the wind, and her sleeves and skirt swaying gently, made her look like a fairy about to fly away on the wind.

Qin Chi subconsciously strode towards Song Jin.

"Madam, is the show good?"

"I was waiting for my husband and didn't see any show." Song Jin answered gently, with a gleam in her eyes.

Qin Chi's heart skipped a beat, and he led his wife home, "I haven't been home for two days, does my wife miss you?"

"Yes, I have. I even asked someone to go to the government office to inquire."

Song Jin said openly.

Qin Chi was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he raised the corners of his lips. One good thing about his wife was that she lived clearly and openly. "You know what's good about this answer."

After entering.

Song Jin asked the kitchen to prepare hot water for bathing.

After Qin Chi washed up, he accompanied Song Jin for dinner. He should have gone to rest, but when he learned that Old Li was injured, he went there. When he returned to the dormitory, it was late at night.

Song Jin has not rested yet and is waiting for Qin Chi.

Qin Chi was surprised, "My wife is still waiting for me?"

"Well, I'll wait for you."

Song Jin put down the new clothes she had sewn and said, "Wu Jingyao came over today and said she wanted to invite me to the teahouse for tea. I know she has other intentions. If you don't have that intention, if you run into her in the future, just stay away from her like you did today."

"I know."

Qin Chi took off his coat and hung it on the screen beside him, then turned around, sat in front of the bed and took off his shoes.

Song Jin packed up the sewing basket and put it away, then moved closer to the bed. "Before Wu Jingyao left, she said that she would see you at the Grand Princess' birthday party. I went to look through the invitations, and there is one that was sent to my house, inviting you and me to attend. Do you want to go? The date is the day after tomorrow."

"There's no rush to decide on this matter. Let's wait until tomorrow."

Qin Chi didn't think about whether to go or not now.

If Jianning hadn't started the uprising, Qin Chi would have gone there to give the Princess's Mansion some face. After all, the Prince of Chu had indirectly helped Song Jin and others in Fuzhou. With internal and external troubles, Emperor Mingcheng was furious, and it was uncertain whether the grand birthday banquet could be held as scheduled.

Song Jin understood Qin Chi's hidden meaning.

It didn't take long before the man fell into a deep sleep.

When Song Jin woke up the next day, Qin Chi was no longer by his side. After asking Qin Qi, he learned that he had gotten up before dawn, put on court robes and entered the palace.

Get up, wash, and dress neatly.

Song Jin went to see his youngest son and then had breakfast with Niu Niu.

Sanlang, who had been outside and seemed to be busier than Song Jin, was also in the mansion today. He excitedly handed a copied article to Song Jin to read.

"Sister-in-law, look quickly! This is the punitive manifesto written by the Jianning rebels. This article spread to all prefectures and cities almost on the same day. It was posted on the streets and alleys of various prefectures, causing quite a stir..."

Sanlang said excitedly, his eyebrows dancing with joy.

He is at an age when he is afraid of chaos in the world, so any major event in the world is a big deal to him.

The fact that the manifesto could spread to all the prefectures of Daxia in such a short time clearly showed that the rebels behind the scenes had planned it in advance and had deployed people in each prefecture.

Song Jin took the manifesto and read it over.

When Song Jin saw the charge accusing Emperor Ming Cheng, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Sanlang was indifferent after reading it because he didn't know the life stories of Li and Qin Chi, but Song Jin knew them. The person who wrote the proclamation was very talented, and every word was a pearl, and it was also very vicious.

If Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty saw this article, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Song Jin didn't know.

Before the manifesto spread throughout the country, it was delivered to the emperor's desk by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

Emperor Mingcheng saw the manifesto last night.

He didn't vomit blood in anger, but he lost his breath and fainted. This was also the reason why Qin Chi was summoned to the palace before dawn.

At this time, Qin Chi got up early and had not drunk a drop of water.

Guarding in front of Emperor Mingcheng's bedroom.

Qin Chi was not the only one guarding the palace. All the people who had been summoned to the palace were here. They took turns reading the manifesto in their hands. Qin Chi was the youngest, so the article was the last one to reach him. So he read it slowly:

scolding thief

In the past, our Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Gao founded the country and unified the world for more than a hundred years. However, in today's world, the emperor is incompetent and rebellious against the will of heaven, acting like Jie and Zhou, causing the sacred artifacts to be covered in dust and causing unrest in the country. We have no choice but to raise an army of righteousness to wipe out the treacherous villains, and hereby announce this to the world.

The emperor killed the wise and virtuous crown prince Kai and seized the throne for himself. This was his first crime. The crown prince is the heir to the throne of the country and the ruler of the country for generations. The emperor committed treason and made the sacred artifacts without a master, shocking the court and the public. His crime is as great as the sun and the moon passing through the sky, and the rivers running through the earth. It cannot be concealed.

The emperor is stubborn and self-willed, and refuses to accept criticism and covers up his mistakes. This is his second crime. The ancient emperors all thought it was good to accept criticism, but the emperor was the only one who did not. Anyone who spoke out would be punished, so that loyal and good people would keep silent and dare not speak out again. The government became worse and worse, and the country became weaker and weaker, all because of this.

The emperor employs treacherous ministers, who bring disorder to the government. This is the third crime. Treacherous ministers are like snakes and scorpions, but the emperor is unaware of them and instead favors them, causing them to harm loyal and good people.

The ancient emperors all regarded diligence and thrift as virtues, but the emperor alone took pleasure in debauchery. He feasted day and night and selected concubines widely, which led to the emptiness of the national treasury and the misery of the people. This is his fourth sin.

I was also shocked to hear that the emperor was plotting to murder the heir of Prince Rui. This is his fifth crime. Prince Rui is a national treasure, and he swore to guard the borders and protect the country. The emperor, out of his own selfish desires, plotted to murder his heir, so that the descendants of meritorious officials would be cut off from the incense. This crime is so great that it is known to heaven and earth, and it is indignant to both humans and gods, and cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth.

……

We are here to punish the evildoers in accordance with the will of Heaven. We hope that the wise men from all over the country will rise up and join us in this righteous cause. We must root out the evil and not let it spread. Announce this to the world so that everyone will know.

The charges leveled at Emperor Mingcheng were mixed with truth and falsehood.

Qin Chi's sight fell on the Fifth Sin. He angrily clenched the manifesto in his hand into a ball, or perhaps his movement was too big and attracted the attention of others.

I noticed that everyone's eyes were on me.

Qin Chi calmly spread out the manifesto, smoothed out the wrinkles, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my lords, I was too angry and couldn't hold it back. These traitors are just talking nonsense, throwing all kinds of dirty water on your majesty. I believe that justice is in the hearts of the people, and people of insight will not believe what is written in the manifesto."

"Ahem, what Minister Qin said makes sense."

Duke Ningguo quickly agreed, "Your Majesty is such a good man. These traitors really deserve to die. If they are caught, their entire clan should be exterminated."

Qin Chi wanted to say that the Nine Clans also included Emperor Mingcheng, do you dare to destroy them? However, he was destined to keep these words to himself.

The silence was broken by Qin Chi.

Others followed suit and attacked the rebels. Some officials were even more fierce in their words, as if they wanted to fight the rebels themselves. Perhaps these people also reacted.

Every word and action in the palace would be monitored and reported to Emperor Mingcheng.

Qin Chi, on the contrary, kept a low profile at this time and let others talk.
