Chapter 426 Consequences (2)

"Manager Yang's words make some sense, but..." Mo Zedong, an official from the Ministry of Justice, said in embarrassment: "It's not enough to want Tang Feng to surrender with only such a little motivation. On that day, our people and everyone from the East Factory went there, but weren't he rejected it? Is it a pity that he came to the door again this time, I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yang Changzhou: "You mean the last time Tang Feng refused to obey his orders because you had no conclusive evidence and did not have the emperor's will. This time, no, because the emperor has issued the order, and ordered Tang Feng to cooperate with you with all his strength." As he spoke, he had already signaled his servants to take out the imperial edict with his eyes.

It turned out that Wei Zhongxian planned to let the people from the East Factory take this imperial edict to the Jinyiwei to capture Tang Feng, but at this point, Yang Changzhou decided to use the power of the Ministry of Justice to handle Tang Feng. Mo Zedong was stunned when he heard that he had the imperial edict, so he stood up respectfully and took over the imperial edict made of yellow brocade with both hands, and then said: "Since you have the imperial edict, the officials should do their best to handle it, and you will definitely capture Tang Feng."

"Okay, then everything depends on all the adults. After the matter is completed, there will be a thank you for nine thousand years!" Yang Changzhou stopped saying anything, picked up the teacup and took a sip, meaning that he wanted to see off the guests. In fact, this is because there are too many things in the Wei Mansion that need him to intervene now, and he is really too busy to do so, so he sent several officials away so quickly.

As soon as he walked out of the Wei Mansion, an official from Shuntian Mansion said to Mo Zedong: "Mr. Mo, why did you obey this offending mission? Now Eunuch Wei and Tang Feng have reached a life-and-death situation. No one knows whether they are afraid of death. Is it too hasty for you to agree to him like this before you meet Eunuch Wei?"

Mo Zedong sneered: "Did you think I really promised him that he would attack Tang Feng? Tang Feng just had a motive, and it was far from enough to convict him. These people were anxious to convict us, so they obviously had some unspeakable thoughts. But after all, we are all people who rely on others to live. If you can do it perfunctorily, just do it first. Now that we have the imperial decree, everything will be much easier."

"Sir, who do you think this death of the Holy Madam will be the one who did this?"

"It's hard to say now. Maybe it was a bitter plan set by Eunuch Wei to completely control Tang Feng to death. Now we can only do things according to the emperor's imperial edict."... Several officials left the Wei Mansion while talking, but they didn't know that their words and deeds had been clearly heard by the spies around the Wei Mansion.

Inside the palace, Wei Zhongxian knelt down to Tianqi as if he had lost his parents: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"Why are you here? Aren't you injured by someone's assassination?" Tianqi stopped his work and asked strangely: "What big thing happened to make you anxious like this, let's talk about it slowly."

"Emperor, Madam Fengsheng... She was assassinated by an assassin at the old slave's home..." Wei Zhongxian said tremblingly. He knew clearly the status of Keshi in the emperor's mind. He didn't know what kind of reaction the emperor would react after he knew the news. There was no reaction. Emperor Tianqi just stood there quietly, his eyes blankly and said: "What did you say? Say it to me again!" Only when the last sentence was the rude meaning in his words.

"Madam Fengsheng was assassinated at Lao Nu's home..." Wei Zhongxian said again with a gritted teeth.

Although this sentence was not long, and although Wei Zhongxian tried to use the most plain tone when he said this, the words still made him feel like he was thundering in Tianqi's ears: "Well, she... was she assassinated?" While muttering this sentence, Tianqi trembled all over. When he cooperated with his weak body, he woke up like a tree in the autumn wind. The first sentence he opened his eyes was: "Where is Wei Zhongxian? Did I have a nightmare just now?"

When Wei Zhongxian heard the emperor calling his name, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I'm here."

Seeing this chubby face, Tianqi's face changed again: "So what happened just now is true? The wet nurse really..."

"If you want to go back, Madam Fengsheng is really given to her by an assassin of unknown origin when she is leaving the old slave's residence..."

The emperor did not faint immediately this time, but stared at the curtain above his head in a daze, but his eyes were not as focal as possible, and it was obvious that he could not stand such a big blow. At this time, the imperial physician became brave and said to Wei Zhongxian: "Wei Gonggong, the emperor's body cannot withstand such stimulation now, so don't say it again."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tianqi spoke again: "We must give the murderer who murdered the wet nurse. I want to destroy his nine clans and cut him into pieces!" At the end of his speech, he was already hoarse, and the veins on his face burst out.

"I obey the order! I will never let the murderer get away with it even if I try my best." Wei Zhongxian responded quickly. He knew that with this sentence, he would have gained power. After nodding at Wei Zhongxian, Tianqi fainted again...

After learning the words of the people from the Ministry of Justice, Tang Feng laughed: "It seems that the eunuch party has only one method, and he actually wants to splash this basin of dirty water on our Jinyiwei's head!"

Because everyone didn't know that this time the matter was really done by Tang Feng to solve the problem, the people from the Jinyiwei were very angry: "It's so outrageous! It would be fine if they framed us once, but they actually did this again. Is it really easy to bully our Jinyiwei?", "They have no basis and no basis, and they have pointed out everything we do!"... The people with a terrifying temper in the field have already started to scold.

At this time, the mature man expressed his concern: "Although he said so, if he wanted to add a crime, why not worry? If they have the imperial decree, they are afraid that even we will find it difficult to compete with it."

"This..." Everyone was stunned. Indeed, in this era, having an imperial edict means that you are correct. Unless Tang Feng is about to rebel, no matter how unjust he is, he will be unable to obey his orders. So everyone looked at Tang Feng with concern, not knowing what method he would have to deal with this.

"The Qing Dynasty will be clear. Since we have never done it, even if they have an imperial edict, they cannot condemn us in one bite." Tang Feng was not as worried as the people below, "I will follow them tomorrow when the people from the Ministry of Justice arrive."

"But sir... In this way, your safety is dependent on people's hands, which is too dangerous..." This time even Lu An couldn't help but speak. Several other thousand households nodded: "Yes, this is too dangerous. We must not let you fall into the hands of Dongchang and the eunuch party."

"Don't worry, I have a way to escape from the crime. Although it seems that the Ministry of Justice is only the only one who obeys Wei Zhongxian's orders, there are actually some upright people in this yamen. They have to obey orders because of the situation. As long as I can provide strong evidence at that time, I think these people can't do anything to me. Maybe I will be able to come back soon."

"Sir, what evidence do you have?" asked all the thousands of households with concern.

Seeing everyone's eyes that were very concerned about themselves, Tang Feng felt warm in his heart. If he had so many brothers standing together, would he be afraid of those eunuchs? After a smile, he said: "I can't say this evidence now, just to prevent the unexpected effect from being known to the eunuchs and the people in the eunuchs will lose. I can only say that I will be fine once."

Whether it was his outstanding achievements in Liaodong in the past or his later actions in helping Jinyiwei deal with Dongchang in Beijing, Tang Feng's various achievements have convinced his subordinates. Now that Lord Tang has said this, these people naturally believe his words.

Early the next morning, the troops of the Ministry of Justice came to the yamen of the Beizhen Fushi Office. Mo Zedong, who led the team, looked at the yamen of one of the two major Yama Halls in the Ming Dynasty, and felt a little upset. Although he had the imperial edict this time and had people from the Dongchang to support him, he knew that once he offended these people, he would not have a good life in the future. But compared to offending Jiu Qiansui, he had no choice but to offend Tang Tongzhi, who was not yet in a state of chaos.

But the situation went smoothly beyond Mo Zedong's expectations. After he revealed his identity, the Jinyiwei guards outside invited them in without making any more trouble, and then Tang Feng came out to see them in person. When he saw this, Mo Zedong's originally uneasy heart was relieved: "Master Tang, the lower official was also ordered to come and ask you to ask for trouble, so please don't make things difficult for us, follow the lower official for a while."

"I have never done anything wrong, so I am not afraid of going to the Ministry of Justice for trial." Tang Feng smiled and stood up: "It's just that there are a few important witnesses. I also want to take them to the Ministry of Justice. I wonder if Lord Mo can agree?"

"As long as you think you need it, please give yourself." Seeing that Tang Feng was so easy to talk to, Mo Zedong was really overjoyed and naturally satisfied his request. So soon, the people from the Ministry of Justice took Tang Feng and more than a dozen people away from the Fushi Office...

ps: I didn't sleep well last night. Today I was drowsy all day and my mind was covered in mud, so I can only post one chapter today. Sorry
