Zhu Zhongjun finished reading one by one.

He looked up and saw Gu Jinzhi looking at him frowningly, thinking about something.

Zhu Zhongjun was unhappy and questioned Gu Jinzhi: "Why did you take the 'blame|traitor' book at once?"

Gu Jinzhi: "...Comrade, your focus is too far away?"

"Do you think I have been to Luzhou for more than a year and have committed an offense with Qianlan?" Zhu Zhongjun asked relentlessly.

"I don't think there is anything important? This is how the law is determined." Gu Jinzhi said, "Put your attention back!"

Gu Jinzhi also came over and took his hand and followed him to look at it again.

The current laws and regulations were still formulated during the Taizu period.

The laws and regulations during the Taizu period were notoriously strict!

The old ministers who followed Taizu to fight the country were basically killed or exiled by the Qing Su. The law was also formulated against the unstable situation at that time, and it was very strict. A small mistake was often beheaded or hung.

Until now, in the past century, some laws have been revised. Those who commit traitors will not affect the glory and wealth of officials themselves, so there has been no major changes so far.

The law stipulates that if a man and a woman are not prepared for the six rituals, they have an affair, which is considered "harmony", and even living together, they are considered "descendant".

For those who are traitorous, men and women are each sceptered to eighty tastings; for those who are lewd, they are shackled for three months.

After reading it, Gu Jinzhi began to ponder again.

Zhu Zhongjun stared at her.

The snow neck she came over was on his side. He turned his chin slightly and could kiss her. Zhu Zhongjun couldn't help feeling relieved.

These days, he has become more and more unbearable.

After hesitating, his lips fell on Gu Jinzhi's neck.

The warm touch shocked Gu Jinyi, who was unprepared, and his body subconsciously shrank back.

"You have to do this?" Gu Jinzhi asked him, "Have you been overwhelmed recently? So hungry | thirsty..."

Zhu Zhongjun approached and said softly, "Because you are so beautiful!"

Gu Jinzhi:...

####

Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi studied it for a long time.

The censor Chen reported that Zhu Zhongjun had committed sexual intercourse, which was definitely the prelude to the plan.

Zhu Zhongjun is the prince and the queen mother's favorite youngest son. Even if there is no queen mother, the emperor will not let Zhu Zhongjun show his shackles for three months for the sake of the royal face.

But as an emperor, you cannot openly despise the law.

Laws and orders help the emperor and control subjects.

He ignored him, and whoever followed the law in the future would be the imperial power that would be harmed by the time he would be.

In this matter, the emperor could not excuse Zhu Zhongjun.

But it is impossible to show the public a shackle.

The emperor may follow precedents and use other methods to replace the shackles and show them to the public.

What method should I use?

This is what Zhu Zhongjun is most worried about.

Although the emperor did not want Zhu Zhongjun to lose the royal face, he did not want Zhu Zhongjun to marry Gu Jinzhi.

And Gu Jinzhi was given the marriage by the emperor...

The emperor can make a fuss about this matter, which is open and upright, but I am afraid that the empress dowager will not be able to stop it.

"... Ning Xi ruined my big deal." Zhu Zhongjun said. "If he had not had an affair with Qianlan, I could deny that he had something to do with Qianlan. Now, only by letting Qianlan disappear can you block the public's mouths!

”

Gu Jinzhi was silent.

"As soon as Qianlan dies, although there is no evidence of death, it also confirms that you feel guilty. If someone is unwilling to accept it, he might as well just sue you for killing someone to silence you. You are afraid that you will even have a title." Gu Jin's words.

"Don't worry." Zhu Zhongjun said.

Don't worry, he can do it clean...

Gu Jinzhi smiled bitterly.

Zhu Zhongjun looked down on her: "Are you unhappy?"

"It's not something to be proud of. Should I be happy?" Gu Jinzhi replied, "I... don't object."

Oppose or not. This position.

Being happy or unhappy is a kind of mood.

Many times, these two things are in conflict with each other.

To survive, you have to struggle in this contradiction.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't know what the situation would be like, so he had to take action first.

He called Chen Dingwen, the leader of the guards who followed him to Beijing, and wrote a quick letter to Luzhou.

"Just say, the people in the capital said that I had a lewd relationship with Qianlan, and asked Lord Ning to send Qianlan to the capital and verify the correctness of the Ministry of Justice. I clearly remember that Qianlan and I had never had any personal relationship to prove mine.

Innocence..." Zhu Zhongjun told Chen Dingwen.

Chen Dingwen is Ning Xi’s confidant.

Although Ning Xi and Qianlan were done in a vague manner, clues were revealed.

Chen Dingwen has been in the royal palace for so many years, but he has never encountered it or heard of it.

His face changed drastically.

He said yes.

Zhu Zhongjun nodded.

He handed over Qianlan's affairs to Ning Xi. In order to preserve his reputation, Ning Xi would not hesitate to let Zhu Zhongjun kill him.

It doesn’t matter, Zhu Zhongjun is not afraid of murder, he is only afraid that Qianlan will live...

Ning Xi is always smart.

He would get things done for Zhu Zhongjun. After Ning Xi found out, Qianlan would undoubtedly die.

Zhu Zhongjun doesn't need to do this by himself.

He only needs to deal with what happened after Qianlan died...

####

The emperor was very upset about the memorial of the Censor Wang Xian.

It would be impossible for him to let Zhu Zhongjun show his shackles.

It is a shameful punishment to show public shackles, and it will take another three months. At that time, the emperor's face, the empress dowager's face and Zhu Zhongjun's face will be lost.

All court officials are smart.

They fought with the emperor regardless of life and death, some for fame and some for profit, but they would not be stupid, just for the emperor to embarrass the emperor.

The king is humiliated and his minister dies!

Court officials can disagree with the emperor, but they will not embarrass the emperor.

Under normal circumstances, no one will sue Zhu Zhongjun for such a thing.

Someone instructed me behind this.

What is the purpose?

The censor Wang Xian is a crazy person by nature.

On the surface, he neither defected to the Tan family nor the Jiang family nor the Gu family.

He had impeached Gu Yantao seven or eight times and Jiang Liang five or six times, not to mention the Tan family.

He's just a thorn.

The emperor was not sure. He did it impartially this time, or had a backer behind him.

As a monarch, he was unquestionable. The emperor never suspicious of the power behind the ministers. He would verify it.

He had checked Wang Xian many times.

Wang Xian is very clean and upright.

The emperor was frowning.

"...Your Majesty, Chang Shun from Kunning Palace is here." Liu Shu came in to report.

Chang Shun is an eunuch from Kunning Palace.

The emperor asked to come in.

"Emperor, the Empress Dowager heard that this morning, someone impeached the King of Luyang to commit adultery..." Chang Shun knelt down and said to the emperor, "The Empress Dowager asked me to ask how the Emperor and the Cabinet dealt with the King of Luyang. After getting the news, he told me

She said."

The emperor was shocked.

Shortly after the morning court, my mother, who was in the deep palace, already knew the content of the morning court.

Over the years, even in the early stages of the emperor's new policy, the Empress Dowager remembered that the inner palace was not allowed to interfere in politics, and never asked more questions.

It turns out she knows it all.

The trust over the years has made the emperor feel deeply guilty!

He shouldn't have thought about Gu Jinzhi, which made his mother sad.

"I'm going to Kunning Palace!" The emperor stood up.

The emperor's jade chariot arrived at Kunning Palace and the empress dowager came out.

She forced a smile on her face.

When the eunuchs retreated, the queen mother's smile turned cold.

"I heard that someone in the court cannot get along with Zhong Jun?" The Empress Dowager asked the emperor in a deep voice, "Emperor, what does this mean!"

The Queen Mother suspected that it was instructed by the emperor.

The emperor knew that it would cause such misunderstandings.

He hurriedly explained: "Mother, how can I know what it means?"

He still felt vague. Thinking of the trust his mother gave him, love for him, and for his tolerance, he said bluntly. "I don't know about this. It was not my instruction!"

The queen mother's face became slightly loose.

"The Ai family did not say it was instructed by the emperor." The empress dowager was relaxed and did not blame him blindly, but her expression was still tense. "It was his intention to send his daughter to Zhongjun. Why did he make a living by lewd?

What's the joke! Zhongjun did not force the girl to steal the people. In this way, the court officials are also preparing to impeach the third prince? When Zhongjun and the third prince fall down, they are the second prince and the fifth prince? Those people want to turn the emperor

Have you all the brothers?"

The emperor's third concubine's brother is now in a fiefdom in Hunan.

He seized the daughter and wife of the people, and was even sued by someone to Yingtian Mansion.

He is openly breaking the law and discipline.

The Censor muttered a few words about his crimes, and was finally suppressed by the cabinet.

Why did the cabinet approve the "Ru Rulu" when it arrived at Zhongjun?

The emperor had insomnia last night and his mind was already heavy. He was quarreled by the ministers again. His mind was chaotic and like a drunken person.

He was angry at the cabinet's theory, so how could he think clearly?

"This..." the emperor was furious.

Do you want to knock down Zhongjun first and then knock down the emperor so that the eldest prince can succeed to the throne?

This is the conspiracy of the Tan family!

"My mother, the chief minister of the cabinet, Xia Wei, is a disciple of the Tan family. He has always been to the Tan family. Now that he has made the eldest prince the crown prince, he relies more on the Tan family. The Tan family knows that I am not close to them, and is afraid of the position of the crown prince.

Unstable, want to kill me directly?"

The Empress Dowager didn't expect the emperor to have such deep doubts.

He always doubts the Tan family.

The Queen Mother didn't want him to doubt the Tan family and the prince without evidence.

The emperor always doubted the prince, and it would be spread sooner or later. Those court officials dared not rely on the prince. The prince's status was unstable and the government was still uneasy.

The Empress Dowager hopes that the emperor will train his heirs well, stabilize the situation and make peace in the world.

Hearing this, the empress dowager hurriedly said, "Since the eldest prince has been appointed as the crown prince, why are the Tan family still trying to make trouble? They are even more afraid that the emperor will do it, and the prince will lose it. Ai Jia's private senses, this thing

Something is a bit strange, and there is another purpose behind it. Isn’t there a queen not yet established?"

The Queen Mother originally wanted to say that it might be targeted at Zhongjun.

If that is the case, the emperor also wants to make things difficult for Zhongjun. What is the effect of the empress dowager being so angry?

Moreover, the Empress Dowager also felt that this time the embarrassment of Zhongjun was not targeted by Zhongjun.

Zhongjun is a fool, why should court officials not get along with him?

You can't be too suspicious, but you have to be careful.
