The first thousand four hundred and fortieth chapters:(1/2)
Xiao Jing nodded.
However... Xiao Jing couldn't help but feel upset when he saw that His Majesty's attitude was unclear.
In fact, the factory guards were already crazy last night. They kept bringing sticks and handing them in through the cracks in the palace gate, wanting to wait for Xiao Jing's instructions.
Xiao Jing was also in a difficult situation. He asked the factory guards to interfere immediately. What if they interfere? The people in Xishan Academy are all crazy people, and the factory guards will be beaten.
But if you don’t interfere and let such a thing happen, it will seem to be dereliction of duty.
Of course, the most important thing here is... His Majesty's attitude.
It is extremely unwise to act rashly before you can clarify your Majesty's wishes.
Xiao Jing was complicated and left in a hurry.
Not long after, Emperor Hongzhi was promoted to the throne and summoned all officials.
So Xie Qian was the leader, and after Li Dongyang, there were ministers from various ministries who led all officials to meet.
All the ministers rituals.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Last night, I heard a roar from the capital, and there were also factory guards carrying sticks that kept coming into the palace. I wonder what happened?"
Xie Qian and others were complicated, and they were increasingly unable to understand His Majesty.
Ma Wensheng, Zhang Shengren and others... also had their own thoughts.
Fang Jifan's behavior was extremely bad.
This is no longer a question of who is right and who is wrong.
But, if you think you are right, can you do this?
What do the emperor do and what do the imperial court do?
At this time, someone came out and said, "Your Majesty, Fang Jifan dispatched troops without authorization yesterday to surround Jiang Mansion, and then fought and killed him."
It's much easier to lead a team...
Then someone said, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Qi actually used gunpowder in the house. The power of gunpowder was infinite and shocked the capital."
"Your Majesty... Duke of Qi humiliated the imperial envoy Jiang Yan. So far, Jiang Yan and his son have a life and death uncertain."
"Your Majesty... This Duke of Qi said that he is the king's law."
"Your Majesty... The Duke of Qi actually stuffed the imperial court's order into the prison cart, and his gentleness was lost."
"His Majesty……"
These things are terrifying.
Since Emperor Gao of Hongwu, to the present, there have been countless arrogant and powerful ministers, but this has never been the case.
"Your Majesty..." Zuo Du Censor stood up.
He was the leader of the censor, and Jiang Yan was his subordinate after all, so he had reason to stand up and say one or two: "Your Majesty, no matter for any reason, Fang Jifan dared to do this and put the court's laws aside. This is a serious crime of treason. If everyone is tolerated, everyone will follow him. From then on, the country will not be in power, and the country will be there?"
This is the most powerful one.
To some extent.
No one cares about who is right or wrong, but just because Fang Jifan acts like this, he should be punished for his death.
Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said in an unknown way: "Oh, so that's it."
Then he said, "Where is Jiang Yanren? People come and go to spread it. There are also Fang Jifan and others, and they are all here."
All officials fell into silence.
No one said anything.
Li Dongyang's judgment is correct.
Your Majesty asked Liu Jian to go to recuperate, which meant to protect him.
If Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, was the head of all officials, I would have to make a point here.
He even envied Liu Jian for having such a holy favor.
After waiting for a long time, finally... Jiang Yan was carried over.
Jiang Yan was dressed in tattered clothes and looked miserable. When he arrived at the Fengtian Palace, he burst into tears: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I acted under the imperial order and offended Fang Jifan for some reason... Now I have been tortured by Fang Jifan for the family to be destroyed, and my family will be destroyed, and my family will be destroyed, and my family will be destroyed..."
His voice choked and tears fell like the flood of rivers.
It was obvious that he had not slept all night last night, and his hands and feet were already numb after being tied up all night. He mourned miserably: "I beg your Majesty to make the decision for me."
I can't continue to say what happened next.
When the ministers saw Jiang Yan, they couldn't help feeling heartbroken. Look, how miserable it is. The dignified censor Qingliu and the dignified imperial envoy were actually tortured to this point. Many people showed the sadness of the rabbit and the fox.
When Emperor Hongzhi saw this, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Why did Fang Jifan do this?"
Jiang Yan said sadly: "I don't know."
Emperor Hongzhi said: "I have entrusted you with important responsibilities. It is really unpredictable that such a thing happened. Has Fang Jifan come?"
At this time, an eunuch outside finally said, "The prince, the Duke of Qi, Fang Jifan, and the Minister of Personnel Ouyang Zhi met with him."
The three of them entered the hall and then bowed down.
Emperor Hongzhi met these three people.
Ouyang Zhi still had no expression on his face.
In fact, from the perspective of observing words and expressions, Ouyang Zhi can completely ignore it.
Zhu Houzhao strided with his head high and walked in front, like a proud little rooster. Oh, no, it was more like a victorious general.
Fang Jifan looked much more glad to the eyes, lowered his head, and walked into the hall.
"I've seen Your Majesty."
The three of them bowed down at the same time and gave a great gift.
Emperor Hongzhi's eyes first fell on Fang Jifan.
"Fang Qing's family."
"I am here." Fang Jifan's voice was gentle and even started to speak less today.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Is all the reports of you true?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, it should be... true." He still lowered his head, looking ashamed.
Obviously, this time I changed my strategy, which is a bit different from the past.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "The Fang Qing family took people to Jiang Mansion and bombed the Jiang Mansion?"
Fang Jifan responded straightforwardly: "Yes."
"It's so domineering that he claims to be the king's law?"
"yes."
"Do you have anything to argue about?" Emperor Hongzhi stared at Fang Jifan.
Fang Jifan looked trembling: "My son... has nothing to argue about. This is a crime of death. My son knows it well and begs you to surrender to me."
“…”
This...is a little, no...is very wrong.
If Fang Jifan had been in the past, he would have to be polite, or claim that he had brain disease and was a child.
But today, he was unexpectedly obedient and obedient, and confessed to all the crimes.
Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "You know that this is the crime of death."
Fang Jifan said in a very harmless manner: "I know, my son has made the best plans."
Jiang Yan, who was kneeling beside him, heard a light flashed in his sad eyes, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart.
Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan, weren’t you very arrogant yesterday? Aren’t you very proud?
What's wrong now?
He gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear Fang Jifan into pieces.
So he said, "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Hongzhi suddenly glared at Jiang Yan and said sternly: "I didn't let you speak."
Jiang Yan: "..."
Emperor Hongzhi frowned.
If Fang Jifan had his previous personality, he would have to think that Fang Jifan was aware of his crime and was too arrogant. Even if Fang Jifan was right, he would still beat him up and polish his sharpness.
But now... Fang Jifan was pleased with his eyebrows, admitted his mistakes obediently, and admitted all the crimes. This made Emperor Hongzhi realize that the problem was not just as simple as the surface.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Fang Jifan, before this, have you ever received the imperial edict from the prince?"
To be continued...
