Chapter 2241 The Great Court (fourteen)
ps: Thanks to the book friend "Hanlin Emperor" for his monthly vote.
Yes, Zhu Chenyu's reminder is right, not to mention that the concubine Wang is still pregnant at this time.
The closest relative was killed, but he wanted to have children for his enemies. Even if Wu Zheng didn't care, how would the concubine and the soon-to-be-born child face the crowd and how would he deal with the criticism of the world?
Wu Zheng was really embarrassed. What should we do?
This problem is actually not a new problem. This problem has always existed. In fact, Wu Zheng was puzzled.
On one side is kind and kind, but on the other side is righteous.
What choice should I make?
....
"My Lord Shaoxing, Chen Zhiyuan, rescued the Lord, and was too late... Please forgive me for your crime!"
Chen Zhiyuan, covered in blood, appeared at the gate of Fengtian Palace. The imperial guards did not stop him, and Song An did not stop him.
Chen Zhiyuan signed up and entered, went to Zhu Chenyu, and knelt on one knee, "Your Majesty is frightened... Please rest assured that the rebels outside Chengtian Gate have been cleared..."
"Thank you for your hard work in Shaoxing!" Zhu Chenyu said with a expressionless face, "I have already abdicated in the King of Wu in public... He is the emperor of Jianxing Dynasty after today!"
Chen Zhiyuan was stunned and looked at Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng touched his nose and nodded slowly.
Chen Zhiyuan pursed his lips and stood up, saying to Zhu Chenyu, "That's good...that's good!"
Then, he had no choice but to greet Wu Zheng again, "Mr. Shaoxing Hou Chen Zhiyuan saved the lord and was too late... Please forgive me for your crime..."
"Stop doing this!" Wu Zheng said angrily, "Tell me about the situation outside the imperial city... Is the concubine okay?"
Chen Zhiyuan said: "Good concubine..."
Wu Zheng finally let go of the stone in his heart. He breathed a sigh of relief, "It's fine... It's fine!"
But as soon as I spoke, I saw Chen Zhiyuan trying to speak but stopped.
Wu Zheng's heart was thrilled and said in a deep voice: "What else is there?"
Chen Zhiyuan looked up at Wu Zheng and hesitated: "Lin Wei, the leader of Yushi Street... all died in battle!"
Wu Zheng's face twitched and he asked anxiously: "Liu Yuan... Then Liu Yuan is still alive, right?"
Chen Zhiyuan was silent and did not answer.
Wu Zheng understood, his chest was undulating rapidly and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Chen Zhiyuan whispered: "Liu Yuan was attacked several times the enemy. In order to protect his concubine, he hid in the direction of Jilong Mountain. He led his troops to stay in the Changlin Guard Branch Office to lure the enemy to cut off the rear... When I arrived and entered the yamen, he... was no longer able to do it!"
Speaking of this, Chen Zhiyuan looked at Wu Zheng and said, "When Liu Yuan is dying, I will ask me to tell His Majesty a word."
"speak."
"... Yuan and his command can die for His Highness... there is no regret, no regret!"
The officials next to him were sighing. Of course, even if they were from Wu Zheng, a sigh of relief was already a slight praise for the unknown Liu Yuan.
Only Xia Wanchun, Ma Shiying, Song An and others knew how much Liu Yuan was in the heart of King Wu.
Yingtian Mansion has undergone three coups, and Liu Yuan took the initiative to participate. The first time he even broke up for Wu, more than a hundred brothers died.
During the Hangzhou Prefecture Incident, Liu Yuan even led all his staff to Hangzhou Prefecture to serve the king.
Such people are no longer just loyal subordinates, but are just loyal brothers!
After a long time, Wu Zheng's voice fell and asked, "...isn't there anyone... alive?"
Chen Zhiyuan understood what Wu Zheng meant. As long as there was a living person, it could be rebuilt. Only reconstruction could make the dead not be forgotten!
Chen Zhiyuan shook his head slowly, lowered his head without saying a word.
Wu Zheng could imagine that Changlin Wei was not a combat force, and it was normal for all the members to be raided several times higher than the enemy.
Yes, but they did not die on the battlefield against foreign invaders and could not enjoy the glory of national war.
Why?!
Wu Zheng slowly turned around and put his hands behind his back. Everyone thought Wu Zheng was thinking about how to deal with Mo Zhinian and the traitor who were still alive. No one saw that there were tears rolling down in Wu Zheng's eyes at this time... No, Zhu Chenyu, who was only one step away from Wu Zheng, saw the tears rolling down by Wu Zheng, which made her heart twitch for no reason.
Mao Xiang stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty..."
"I haven't ascended the throne yet!" Wu Zheng said in a deep voice.
Mao Xiang quickly changed his words, "The prince... I think he should give Liu Yuan and his troops a happy honor after their death... If the prince allows him to approve him, I will immediately order the Ministry of Rites to posthumously posthumously..."
Wu Zheng slowly turned around, "No need... They didn't die for this court... They couldn't misinterpret their intentions... Besides, how could military achievements be easier?"
Mao Xiang lowered his head and said, "The prince is wise!"
Wu Zheng looked at Song An, "Check... check their families, and give each family a pension of 500 taels... and send them to Jiangnan College... All the expenses are borne by Gu himself!"
"yes."
Wu Zheng slowly stepped forward, looked down at Mo Zhinian who was lying on his back, and suddenly, he smiled.
"Don't follow."
"The criminal is here!"
"Raise your head."
"Abide by the order!"
Wu Zheng smiled even more strongly and said to Mao Xiang: "Today's grand ceremony...just end here, and it will be postponed to tomorrow!"
Mao Xiang replied, "I am obeying Your Highness's order...but, how dare you ask Your Highness... these officials...?"
Wu Zheng glanced indifferently, "The Ministry of Justice, the Censorate, and Jingzhao Prefecture jointly handled this case... Just deal with it according to the law!"
According to the law?
Have you heard of treason, and have you survived?
A cry of sorrow sounded in the hall.
But Mao Xiang was relieved. He was most afraid that Wu Zheng would say unhappy at this time - kill the three clans.
"Is Mo Xiang strange? Today's imperial guards will not obey your orders without warning?" Wu Zheng asked with a smile on Mo Zhengnian.
Mo Zhinian really wanted to know, and he looked up at Wu Zheng.
Wu Zhengyouyou said: "Actually, it's very simple... The imperial guards participated in the coup because they were afraid of Emperor Xun's reckoning after the reckoning. After the eldest princess ascended the throne, they did not pursue them, and the eldest princess did not settle them... Does Mo Xiang understand now?"
Mo Zhinian was shocked when he heard this. He had already guessed that the Huang brothers were in Cao's camp and were in Han, but he could never guess when Wu Zheng took action to lay people in the imperial guards, because in these years, Wu Zheng had no chance to plant people in the imperial guards. If there were, he would be Wu Zheng's most capable person, and after he entered the capital, Wu Zheng would have no chance to plant people at all.
In other words, as early as three or four years ago, when Wu Zheng took advantage of the change of imperial power, he had already begun to make arrangements among the imperial guards.
At that time, the imperial guards were in panic. Wu Zheng bought them and recruited them without spending too much effort to get the loyalty of many people. The most important thing is that no one would notice that Wu Zheng, who was concealed and forced Zhu Cilang to death three days later, left Beijing and returned to Hangzhou Prefecture, could lay so many secrets in the imperial guards in just three days. This scheming and scheming made Mo Zhinian suddenly realize that he was the biggest fool in the world, and the Wu Zheng that he had always been thinking about in his heart was not real at all, or in other words, it was just an appearance of Wu Zheng.
In other words, it was the appearance that Wu Zheng deliberately made people see!
