How to Raid the Queen

While waiting for someone, Jing Wenhao kept thinking, that's probably what the so-called one hair can't be pulled, but the whole body can be moved by pulling it.In the previous life, although he was a hands-off emperor by his will, Jing Yi and Jing Wenxi really handled the matter in Beijing well for him.At least during his ten years as emperor, Jing Wenzhao failed to make any tricks under his suppression.But now, since Jing Wenzhao entered Beijing, the people behind these so-called "unsolved cases" are really ready to be revealed.

Jing Wenhao laughed at himself, his father only had three sons, and he only had two younger brothers, but now it's a good thing, everyone wants to deal with him.Does he not have the appearance of an emperor like this? Everyone wants to replace him.

Li Yong and others entered the palace around the same time.

Seeing the two people coming in, Jing Wenhao gave them a moment to react, and said, "Concubine Chen, she is dead."

Both of them froze for a while, and reacted for a while. As far as they know, there are only two concubines in the harem, one has been dealt with by Jing Wenhao a few days ago, and the other, after sorting it out in their minds, came to think of it. It is estimated that it happened some time ago, and she was downgraded to be a concubine.

"Now is the time to deal with General Chen, is he dead at this time?" As soon as he said this, Li Yong thought that someone was looking for trouble.

"The plan may have to be advanced. Is there any problem with you?" Jing Wenhao said this sounded like a question, but in fact he was just making arrangements. The evidence was almost checked before, and now he just wanted to treat those things earlier. It's just human sin.Although there might be some mistakes in the haste, but right now he is provocative to the point of view, and if he doesn't respond, his good brother may really feel that he is incompetent. "Since this matter was done intentionally, the news cannot be kept hidden for too long. So the sooner the better."

"The accounts in the army are clear. General Chen shielded his son. The evidence is solid. If you want to punish him, there is absolutely no problem here." Li Yong replied, "It's just that the person who has contact with that side has not been found out yet. If we speed up the process, This line is afraid that it will be broken."

"No problem. After cutting off this big bug, I'm not afraid that his subordinates will have some tricks." If Jing Wenhao was still thinking about whether he had moved too much in the past two months, now he has not at all. Such concerns.Unless these obstacles are cleared away, prosperity will not be so easy to come by.

"The gangster has already confessed. If the emperor wants to, he can convict him at any time." Xie Xuan said truthfully.

"That's good." Jing Wenhao sipped his tea and asked, "Do you know how Concubine Chen died?"

The two of them didn't know what kind of riddle Jing Wenhao was playing, and made an attitude of being open-minded and receptive.

Jing Wenhao glanced at the two of them, and continued to ask, "Do you remember the high priest's case?"

The corpse was examined by Xie Xuan, so of course he remembered it clearly. "There is no trauma to the whole body, and no poison can be found in the mouth, nose, throat, and stomach. It was diagnosed as a sudden death. Could it be Concubine Chen?"

"Exactly." Jing Wenhao nodded. "But it's not a sudden death, it's poisoning."

"Poisoned? But Wu Zuo obviously tested it..." Xie Xuan went in without knowing.

"It's not the poison here. It's only after Li Xi told me that I know that this kind of poison is passed on from women to men, and it's from southern Xinjiang." Jing Wenhao hinted step by step.

"Girl, Nanjiang, isn't it?" Xie Xuan followed Jing Wenhao's train of thought, and instantly understood, "The minister is deploying candidates these days, and I'll just wait and see what she will do on the [-]th in a few days. .”

"Then let's deploy it. I also want to know how to refine this poison." Jing Wenhao casually played with a small gadget and said, "After all, I'm not in a hurry for these two days, but I should do the things here first. It's over."

"By the way, Your Majesty, a few days ago you asked the people I sent to respond."

"who is it?"

"According to the secret guard's reply, he is the second son of the Tao family." Xie Xuan replied.

Jing Wenhao frowned. Although he was very unwilling to hear the result, the answer was reasonable.Jing Wenhao raised his eyebrows, "Tell me."

"In the store that the envoy must go to every time he goes out, there is a shop that the second son has been to, and the time is very close. The two go in one after the other. I specially let the one who is familiar with people, skins, and masks go. They were indeed changed when they came out." These are also the results that Xie Xuan just received, and he was planning to write a secret letter and bring it to Jing Wenhao at night, but it happened that Jing Wenhao let him enter the palace .

"Also, those who went to see Miss Qiyue have seen the second son. He only wanted a private room when he went in. Although he didn't order Miss Qiyue directly, the box he wanted was picked up by Miss Qiyue. If the evidence is convincing that Miss Qiyue is really from there, then this may be the way the two exchange information."

"It's really a danger of raising tigers." Jing Wenhao smiled strangely, "Are you talking about being very ironic? Tao Xiang, the few loyal courtiers left by my father and emperor in the previous dynasty, wanted to serve the country, but raised Such a son."

Xie Xuan and Li Yong were very embarrassed, they dared not speak, it was always a matter of rebellion, where would the royal face be placed?

"Okay. Let's continue to follow here. Let's do it tomorrow." Jing Wenhao ordered a few words casually, and let the two leave the palace.

When Jing Wenhao returned to Zhiran Hall by himself, there was a gust of wind and the sky was dark, as if it was going to rain.Walking along the way, the flowers that bloomed on the tree before could not withstand the ravages of this gust of wind, and fell to the ground rustlingly.Suddenly remembering that Li Xi likes these flowers, he immediately told An Fuquan beside him, saying: "Find some people to collect all the flowers on the trees in this yard. Edible ones will be made into honey and flower cakes, and inedible ones will be made according to Aroma, efficacy made into dried flowers, soft pillows. All sent to Zhiran Palace."

An Fuquan looked at the flowers of this tree and asked, "All?"

Jing Wenhao didn't take it seriously, but his tone became a little more serious, and he said, "All of them."

In the end, I was worried, and said deliberately: "Let them move faster, it's windy today, it seems that the weather is going to change. It will all be blown away later, and the flowers that have been harvested will also be carefully selected and given away. The past must be the best."

As a dutiful eunuch, An Fuquan naturally knew that his master's will could not be violated, although it was a bit strange.People smile for Bo Hongyan, who is planting flowers, but this one is indeed picking flowers to eat.

Two months have passed, and it is about to turn from spring to summer, so the sky has changed.And Chaozhong, following Jing Wenhao's actions in the past two months, has also changed.

On the second day, Dali Temple issued an announcement, saying that Chen Fan's case had been tried, and the evidence was conclusive.Chen Fan's case subsequently involved his old father. In order to protect his son, old general Chen did not hesitate to come forward in person, collude with his opponent, and made various promises.And this mysterious opponent, that is, the person behind the county magistrate also surfaced following this case. Time is discredited.Because Dali Temple has obtained the emperor's will, this matter can be investigated deeply. Once the investigation is carried out, the little ladies raised by Mr. Qin Ge in Beijing will be exposed one after another.

Overnight, if talking about Chen Fan's matter caused the Chen family to suffer a complete defeat, the courtiers would like to discuss the matter of Mr. Qin Ge, after all, it was fun and would not offend the anger.When Mr. Qin Ge knew about this, he almost spat out old blood, and his image of painstaking efforts collapsed just like that.Not only the courtiers, but even the common people came to the Qin residence one after another, wanting to see this joke.As a result, the elder Qin's sons and daughters hurriedly moved to other private houses while it was still not so chaotic, while the Daqin Mansion closed its doors to thank guests.

Qin Ge always knew that his official career had come to an end when he got here, but he himself didn't care.Although he didn't make it to the stage of becoming a prime minister, he is still a veteran of the two dynasties.But his son is still an official in the court, and now, his son's official career may stop here because of him.Feeling resentful, I really want to slap myself twice, why can't I bear it like that?

The announcement from Dali Temple here was just issued, and Li Yong issued a military order on the other side, saying that Chen Fan had embezzled huge sums of money from the army, and old General Chen had shielded his son, the amount was huge, so he should be guilty of the same crime.In this way, the two most powerful members of the Chen family were taken away by the two crimes. The Chen family, which was very prosperous in Beijing for a while, was completely unlucky.

On the same day, Jing Wenhao sent troops to arrest Old General Chen, and the rest of the Chen family, including the Minister of Rites, were implicated and dismissed.All the family property of the Chen Mansion went to the state treasury.Seeing that his father was gone, Chen Shangshu suddenly thought of the things he had done, and knew that Jing Wenhao was not going to let him go, so he was afraid, so he immediately wrote a letter of resignation, and brought his beloved concubine with him , and ran away with some private property.

It's good that Chen Shangshu didn't run away, but when he ran away, he just took his concubine with him, and the principal was outraged, so he went to the yamen to beat drums to complain, saying that he was reporting on his husband.When asked by the yamen here, what she reported was that when Chen Shangshu was in power, she personally used it as a substitute for the candles used by the emperor to worship ancestors.This is just an ignorant woman, don't even think about how much a few candles are worth?But this did give Jing Wenhao and the others an opportunity. They couldn't find out who replaced the candle with the dogwood in it at the beginning, but now it's clear.An arrest warrant was immediately issued, and this Chen Shangshu was wanted all over the country.

It was not until the Chen Mansion fell completely that the news in the palace released the news: Concubine Chen was well aware of the serious crimes committed by her family, so she hanged herself that night, which was some kind of imperial favor.

The emperor was furious, and made a decree on the spot that no one except Concubine Chen was allowed to enter the imperial tomb.

Overnight, the wind direction in Beijing completely changed.
