The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber
Chapter 43 Chapter 1 Paparazzi
Mother Jia asked their husband and wife to remember to keep the matter of King Qi's refusal a secret, except for the four people who were present today who knew about it, and they were not allowed to talk to anyone on any occasion after they went out.
"This matter is very important, and it is related to the life and death of our family. If any of you dare to say something, if I hear the news and it gets to the ears of a third person, I don't care if that person is a reliable relative or friend. , beat them out with sticks, and I won’t recognize you!”
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang hurriedly agreed and kowtowed to Jia Mu together.
Jia's mother couldn't bear to ask for Jia's pardon, so she asked Jia Zheng and his wife to find it by themselves.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang didn't have the face to go, even if they really begged with shame, Jia Amnesty would definitely not give face.After the two looked at each other in embarrassment, they kowtowed and begged Mother Jia for help.
Mother Jia hated it so much that she glared at the couple, "You still know how to lose face, but you never thought that my old face would have been lost by you!"
Jia Zheng and his wife had no choice but to retreat hurriedly and ran towards Rongxi Hall.
Zhou Rui's family, who was sent to spread the word first, was kicked out before he could finish speaking.
Mrs. Wang complained to her: "You should hurry up and let him know that this matter has already reached Prince Qi's residence."
Zhou Rui's family kept her mouth shut, and when she opened her mouth when she entered the courtyard, she was forced out, what could she do.
Jia Zheng urged Mrs. Wang to come in and talk.
"I'm a married woman, is it appropriate to go to your brother's yard?" Mrs. Wang hated Jia Zheng for not being up to date, and asked him to investigate this matter carefully, who knew he was so incompetent.
Jia Zheng went in by himself.
Zhou Rui's family couldn't help it, and asked Mrs. Wang curiously: "Madam, what's the matter, I have to work with you and the master to beg him, what news went to Qi Wang's mansion?"
Mrs. Wang hurriedly said sharply: "Shut up and don't ask more questions."
Zhou Rui's family shut up resentfully, stood behind Mrs. Wang, secretly glanced at the back of Mrs. Wang's head with dissatisfaction, and sneered inwardly.Forget it, thanks to the fact that the master doesn't trust her so much, she can go and leave a way out for herself with peace of mind.
After all, Jia Zheng is a master, and his mother-in-law has to give some face.Of course he didn't specifically mention the matter of King Qi's non-judgment, but just asked the mother-in-law to pass it on as soon as possible, telling Jia Amnesty that the Qi Palace had already got the news, and the situation was somewhat irreversible.After entering the room for a while, Mrs. Yin came out to salute Jia Zheng and shook her head.
"He didn't say anything?" Jia Zheng asked.
Mrs. Yin shook her head, "No, the master was reading a book, and he gave me a look after hearing what I said, so I quickly backed out."
Jia Zheng was in a hurry and wanted to go in.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly persuaded: "Although this old slave doesn't know what the second master is worried about, but according to our master's temperament, he didn't say anything after knowing the matter, so he didn't want to care about it. You can't say anything if you go in now I'm afraid that there will still be arguments, why don't you let the master think about it first, and the second master will ask tomorrow?"
Mrs. Wang also came over now, and grabbed Jia Zheng's arm to persuade him to go back.At this critical juncture, if you get angry with others and offend them completely, I'm afraid the situation will be even more difficult to deal with.
The husband and wife turned back to Jia Mu and told what had happened.Jia Zheng was angry with Jia She's attitude, and deliberately added fuel to the picture, saying that Jia She was putting on airs and was a little arrogant.
"What people said at the beginning, this matter is not good, you insisted on deciding on your own, and agreed to this marriage. Now the matter has been messed up by you, and you still have the face to blame others. What did you say later, kneel down Beg me to persuade me, don't you want others to help you!"
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang repeatedly kowtowed to Jiamu, listening to Jiamu scolding sullenly, not daring to complain.
Jia Mu was so angry that she trembled willingly, and her face turned pale. Thanks to the mandarin duck glass to protect Zhou Quan and give her a smooth ride, otherwise she would faint from anger.
"Old lady, the Elder Master wants to help with this matter. It can't be solved tonight, so we have to wait until tomorrow. The servants will help you to rest first, so you can relax?" Glass asked.
Mother Jia clutched her chest, took a deep breath and then let out a sigh of relief, she felt better for a moment, but the next moment her chest was still extremely depressed
Mother Jia sighed several times, and finally was helped into the room by the maids.
In the end, Jia Mu didn't let Jia Zheng and his wife get up, and they didn't dare to get up, so they knelt in the flower hall all night.
Jia's mother tossed and turned until midnight, before she fell asleep for an hour.After waking up in the morning, she heard that the second couple had knelt down all night, and her anger towards them subsided a little.
Jia Amnesty came on time to make arrangements for Jia Mu.
Jia Amnesty saw that there were maids waiting for orders outside the house, and no one went in to serve him, so he knew that those people were waiting for him.
Jia Amnesty then entered the flower hall.
Jia Zheng and his wife hurriedly stood up and looked at Jia Amnesty pitifully.Jia's mother was not in good spirits either, her eyes lit up when she saw Jia Amnesty, and she gave Jia Amnesty a smile with all her energy.
"Boss, this is the end of the matter, you can't just watch your niece enter the fire pit of Prince Qi's mansion."
"It's just that I can't just sit and watch, so I made it clear beforehand, listen to me. In this situation, let me save something. If you can't help it, you think I can. What are you being a prince or concubine? What is majesty? Is it something that a small official like me can offend?" Jia Amnesty squinted at Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, "Who is greedy for fame and profit, and is afraid that things will change, so he can't wait to get married right away, so he rushes to spread the news. Yes. Whoever makes the trouble is responsible, I really can't control it."
Jia Mu frowned, and called out in a pleading tone: "Boss!"
"Okay, do you really think I have a way?" Jia She smiled helplessly, "Then you just tell me what to do, and I will do exactly what you say."
Mother Jia was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Jia She to say that, after thinking about it, she was not sure: "Why don't you ask Lord Song to help you intercede?"
"As a junior, he can manage the emperor's aunt? Besides, he is a man with a foreign surname, how can he interfere in the marriage of other people's girls? If he speaks out, he is not afraid of being criticized and laughed at. Let's not say that he definitely doesn't want to get involved in such a thing." Son, even our family Yuanchun's reputation is not good."
"I just remembered that this child has never been reunited." Jia's mother looked at Jia Amnesty.
"Yeah, that's because he doesn't like women." Jia She simply replied.
"Don't like women?" Mother Jia was very surprised and reacted for a long time.
Jia Amnesty: "Isn't this known all over the world?"
Mother Jia slowed down and muttered, "It's written in the neighbor's family history."
Mrs. Wang also knew something, but she was still a little shocked to hear Jia She said so personally.Jia Zheng was even more shocked. He always thought that Song Xi was just a flirtatious talent who liked to play tricks, but he didn't expect that he only liked men purely.
"Let's not talk about him. You can ask the empress and the emperor for this matter. What kind of a powerful person is that Concubine Rong? If she gets angry, no one can cure her, even the emperor. Back then, the king of Qi He died for his country again, with great merit, who would take the initiative to provoke such trouble for a girl who is a fifth-rank official in the Duke's mansion. Even if he provokes, there is nothing he can do. If he can't be persuaded to come back, it is useless to work hard." Jia She explained.
Mother Jia died when she heard this, she was so angry that she shed tears, and pointed at Jia Zheng and his wife with shaking fingers, "Let you make trouble, what should we do now?"
Jia Zheng was also annoyed, and after reflecting on himself for a while, he turned to Jia She and asked, "Are you not sure about King Qi's refusal?"
Jia Amnesty immediately understood what Jia Zheng meant, and sneered.
"Who said this must be true."
Jia Zheng continued talking, and then looked at Jia Mu. Anyway, the matter was irreparable, so he let Yuan Chun marry like this.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Zheng in surprise.
Mrs. Wang didn't dare to speak anymore, she had already suffered a loss, this time she couldn't talk nonsense anymore.
"Then that's how you plan to settle the marriage?" Mother Jia asked Jia Zheng tentatively.
With a cold face, Jia Zheng said helplessly, "I can only take one risk."
Jia She glanced at him sideways, and his sneer grew louder.
"What a crime!" Mother Jia cried.
Jia Zheng hurriedly kowtowed to make amends, only saying that this was an adventure, and that Prince Qi was very likely to be a normal person.
"What do you say about Dongxing, just give me a written statement, and promise that I won't ask me to cling to me, blame me and complain about me in the future." Jia Amnesty called out to the door, and asked them to prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones immediately.
When Jia Zheng heard this, he was a little scared.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Amnesty with tears in her eyes: "Boss, you don't have to be so serious."
"But when things happen, they come to me very seriously one by one. I have warned everyone in advance. What do you want me to do? I think it is best to say something in writing in the future, in black and white. No one can deny it." Jia Amnesty asked the servant girl to set up the pen and ink, and then sent it away for Jia Zheng to write.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Mu, wanting to wait for her to say something fair.
"Why, are you too guilty?" Jia She asked.
As soon as Jia Zheng got angry, he picked up a pen and wrote.
"Just write that Yuanchun's participation in the selection of concubines in the Qi Palace is your own decision, and it has nothing to do with others. You did not listen to my advice and decided that there is nothing wrong with Prince Qi. If you find anything related to him in the future, it has nothing to do with me, let alone You won't complain and beg me." Jia She said.
"Boss!" Jia's mother felt that Jia Amnesty's behavior was too outrageous.
Jia She sneered: "It's a pity that Yuanchun is an innocent girl who will fall into the mud just after she came out of the deep pool. Don't blame me, thanks to her parents who seek fame and fortune!"
"Who do you think seeks fame and profit?" Jia Zheng dropped his pen, blushing and glaring at Jia Amnesty angrily.
"Ask yourself, are you really thinking about Yuan Chun and finding a good home for her? You just want to make yourself look good, but you are not capable and plan to sell your daughter for glory!" Jia She sneered.
Mother Jia hurriedly yelled to keep them quiet, and she was out of breath and a little dizzy.
"If elder brother dislikes us so much, we'll just move out," Jia Zheng said.
"The second child is going to separate." Jia Amnesty turned to Jia's mother.
Jia Zheng: "..."
Mother Jia: "..."
"Great Zhou Law Discussion" Grandparents, parents are still there, but the children and grandchildren are from different backgrounds, and they have no filial piety.Three years.
Jia Amnesty memorized this passage very well. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, separating families while parents are still alive is one of the "Ten Evils".
But now that Jia Zheng is willing, there is no harm to him.If he is willing to go to jail, let him go. Anyway, for a father who betrayed his daughter like this, three years in prison will be cheap for him.
Jia Zheng hurriedly wanted to change his words.
Jia She couldn't let him say it again, he knew: "If you didn't have such thoughts, how could you say such a thing. No one is stopping you, come and pack the things for the second room."
When Jia Zheng heard this, his face paled with fright, and he quickly knelt on the ground, pouted his buttocks and kowtowed to Jia's mother to apologize for his mistake, explaining that he had spoken indiscriminately and spoke out of anger.
Jia Mu: "Okay, stop arguing! I should go, stay here and get angry!"
Jia Zheng hurriedly continued to make amends.
Jia Amnesty remained silent.
Mother Jia glanced at Jia Amnesty, the servant looked indifferent, probably wishing her to leave.Jia's mother became cold and angry when she thought about it, so bored that her whole heart felt uncomfortable.The boss is in front of her now, and he does everything strictly. He does everything that should be filial, but he doesn't do any extra things.You can't make mistakes, but you are also alienated and indifferent, making people feel indifferent and terrible.
The eldest son has inherited the title and is still a first-rank official, and now he is winning the holy family.She has to bear it.
Jia Mu had a splitting headache, she supported her head, weakly.
Jia Amnesty: "Mother is not in good health, so don't worry about it. The matter was caused by the second brother, so let the second brother handle it by himself. Yuanyang, quickly ask a doctor to come and show the old lady."
As soon as Jia's mother was helped away, Jia She walked away without raising her eyelids.
Mrs. Wang didn't know what to do, she was terrified of Jia She, he didn't dare to mess with him because he had something to do with her.Jia Zheng was stunned for a while, but he didn't catch up after all, he still wanted face.
Jia Zheng turned to blame Mrs. Wang for making a wrong decision, and she had listened to her sister's gossip when she decided not to get married.Mrs. Wang retorted that Jia Zheng made mistakes in the investigation and was also involved in it.The couple ended up having an argument and broke up.
Mrs. Wang was very angry, and she didn't want to follow Jia Zheng back to the East Court to quarrel with him, so she went to Aunt Xue's place.Aunt Xue didn't know that Yuanchun's marriage was going to change, she smiled and congratulated, and asked if the things that were settled yesterday were notified to Concubine Nan'an and passed on to Prince Qi's mansion.
Mrs. Wang said nothing.
Aunt Xue thought she didn't understand, so she explained: "It's better to settle this matter sooner. If we get the letter, my sister can feel at ease sooner."
Mrs. Wang bit her lip, the more she heard Aunt Xue's words, the angrier she became. "It would be great if you didn't tell me about it!" Mrs. Wang threw off the handkerchief in her hand angrily, got up and left in a hurry.
Aunt Xue didn't understand why Mrs. Wang got angry suddenly, so she hurriedly called her to ask.Mrs. Wang didn't show her face, so she just left.
Baochai happened to come over and asked what was going on.
"I don't know, it's very good. I didn't say anything wrong, but I'm playing with my temper." Aunt Xue frowned, then turned to see Yinger holding an empty box in her hand, and asked Baochai strangely, "You Where did this come from?"
"Go and see the second girl." Baochai said reluctantly.
"What happened?"
Baochai smiled, "It's nothing. I kindly brought her a pair of jade bracelets. After she thanked her, she sent me another jade bracelet. It's nothing interesting."
Sincerely trying to please, but in exchange for the other party to treat him plainly, Baochai's heart is inevitably a little bit disappointed.When she used to treat people with small favors, those people were extremely enthusiastic towards her, even Tanchun and Xichun were the same.However, Yingchun and Daiyu in the Rong Mansion did not buy her, but rather disliked her.
"It's normal for you girls to give one away. You have to match whoever you like, and not everyone likes these gold and silver treasures. I think Yingchun and Daiyu have high vision. Next time you Just change it." After Aunt Xue said that, she asked someone to find out what happened to the Rong Mansion from last night to this morning.
Not long after, the mother-in-law told Aunt Xue what happened.
"Do you know why you don't want this kiss?" Aunt Xue was shocked and asked hurriedly.
"I don't know, even Zhou Rui's family didn't know about it. Last night, the old lady and the second master and the second wife muttered alone for a long time. The old lady seemed to be angry, very angry." The woman said.
Aunt Xue thought about it, and guessed there must be something wrong with Prince Qi's mansion, so didn't she say something wrong before?Aunt Xue was so annoyed that she really wanted to slap herself on the mouth.How did she get involved in other people's family affairs?She insisted on saying those things to her eldest sister, but now she has offended others and lost money.
Aunt Xue sighed, feeling sorry for the 3 taels of silver that was given away for nothing.Ben also counted on relying on this to help the second wife, and after Yuan Chun became a side concubine, Rong Mansion would become their Xue family's future support.Aunt Xue also has the idea of kissing and being a kiss, so as to strengthen this relationship.
Unexpectedly, this frivolous remark ruined all her plans.
Baochai saw Aunt Xue was crying anxiously, and asked Aunt Xue why she was so worried about Rongfu.Aunt Xue told Baochai about her talkative story.
Baochai: "You are confused. Why do you want to meddle in their family affairs? Now we absolutely cannot live in this Rong Mansion. If we leave early, we may get a good deal. If we stay still, people will feel disgusted."
Aunt Xue nodded, and sent people back to Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu, and asked Xue Pan to take people to clean up the old house and move out some day.
Mrs. Wang was worrying about Yuan Chun, when she heard this, she sent Zhou Rui's family to Zhou Xiang to say a few words, and politely stayed with them for a while, if they still insisted, they would not stay.The same is true for Jiamu.After all, Aunt Xue felt cold. She could have waited two days, so she asked someone to pack up and move out in a hurry that afternoon.The Rong Mansion was quite polite to the Xue family, helping to prepare the carriage and sending them a lot of things, it was considered to be taking care of the Xue family in face.
After Jia Amnesty came out from Yushitai at noon, he happened to meet King Qi.
King Qi was about to go to Yushitai, when he saw him there, he smiled and said, "It's better to come early than to come by coincidence, just in time to find you."
"What's the matter, my lord?" Jia She asked.
"Geng Junliang, the city patrolling general, patrolled the city without authorization and surprised my car. I heard that he is a bully. You are the doctor of the imperial history. This kind of thing is your official?" Qi Wang smiled and poked it with his finger. Jia She's shoulder, as if the relationship between them is very close.
Jia Amnesty raised the corners of his mouth, with a half-smile, "Thank you, my lord, for letting me know. The next official will investigate."
King Qi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's good that you understand."
After all, he swaggered away.
Zhu Mao leaned in front of his master, "What does Prince Qi mean?"
"The wolf showed his tail, who said he is honest and kind,"
When Zhu Mao heard the words, he was about to say that it was Mr. Song, but then he heard another sentence from his master.
"Blind."
Pig hair: "..."
Today happened to be the sixth day of the eighth month, when Jia Amnesty met Dr. Sun of Prince Qi's residence.It's not so much seeing, it's better to say arrest.
When Jia Amnesty arrived at Xiayang Tower, he saw the plainclothes secret guards he had arranged to ambush inside and outside the restaurant, as well as near the back alley.
The place where Xiayang Restaurant is located, the front entrance is bustling with people, very lively, but the back alley is very quiet, hardly anyone walks around.
The black pig pretended to be a beggar, and came to ask Jia She for money. While shaking the bowl in his hand, he whispered to Jia She: "Here I am, I am in room No. [-] in Tianzi, and I have been waiting for a while."
Jia Amnesty nodded, and sent Zhu Mao up to spread the word, asking that Dr. Sun to find him in the back alley by himself.
Jia Amnesty took the carriage to the back alley and waited.
Not long after, Jia Amnesty saw Dr. Sun approaching on foot.Around the same time, a group of people gathered up, directly grabbed Dr. Sun, tied him up and gagged him, and stuffed him into Jia Amnesty's carriage.
Jia Amnesty got into the car and asked someone to drive straight to Gyeonggi Province.
"The bearers are all chatting and waiting outside the Xiayang Tower. They don't know. The boy who came with him, Hei Zhu, was also sent away." After Zhu Mao explained, he retracted his neck.
Hearing these words, Dr. Sun glared at Jia She with a bad feeling and let out a groan.
Jia Amnesty asked him directly: "Is it true that King Qi didn't move?"
When Dr. Sun heard this, his eyes popped and he struggled even more.
Seeing that Dr. Sun's chest was bulging, Jia She took out two boxes, a brocade box and a wooden box.The last time Jia Amnesty saw the brocade box was the medicine box that Dr. Sun brought to cure his illness.The other wooden box was very special, it was black, with exquisite patterns carved on it, much more delicate than the one given to him before.After Jia Amnesty opened it, he saw a pill inside, so he took one and smelled it.
"It seems to be the same as the one given to me before. Who is this fooling?"
Dr. Sun was still whining frantically.
"I guess it's for the prince. It's convenient for you to live in Prince Qi's mansion, so you just give it one at a time, and you package it so delicately on purpose, just to make King Qi think that you are a miracle medicine." Jia She smiled and closed the box. "It's useless to struggle, you can't escape. You committed a crime by cheating and abducting, and I will arrest you as an official of the court according to law."
Dr. Sun's eyes were red, and he shook his head at Jia She, as if to prove his innocence.
"I asked someone to investigate, the prescriptions in your pills, marijuana, and Afulan?"
Dr. Sun's face became terrified, cold sweat soon broke out on his forehead, and the struggle was not so violent.
"Let me guess, the medicine you used to treat King Qi's failure to lift is also the same. But after so long, he didn't recover, but he didn't kill you. You must have made up some lies to deceive him. If I turn around, I will tell you Tell Qi Wang clearly about the real harm of this medicine, and expose your deceitful tactics by the way, you said Qi Wangye will punish you after you lose face in public?"
Dr. Sun was honest and looked at Jia Amnesty quietly, with cold sweat rolling on his forehead, which soon wet his temples.
At the gate of Gyeonggi Mansion, Jia She deliberately opened the curtain and asked Dr. Sun to take a look.Only then did the coachman and horse drive the car into the backyard of Gyeonggi Prefecture.Seeing that Jia She really sent him to the government, Dr. Sun was so frightened that he lost his soul. He struggled to get up and knelt down to beg Jia amnesty, but found that he couldn't kneel, so he nodded his head to Jia She.
Jia Amnesty asked someone to wrap Dr. Sun in a cloth, and took him directly to the dungeon in Gyeonggi Province for interrogation.
Wuzuo Wei Qingdong had been waiting here for a long time.
After Dr. Sun was tied to the torture tool, someone took the things from his mouth.Dr. Sun yelled loudly, but after a few times, there was no other response except that the people in the room looked at him coldly and disgustedly.
Dr. Sun became more and more frightened.
Jia Amnesty handed the wooden box to Wei Qingdong.Wei Qingdong took out a small piece with a tool, stuffed it into a steamed bun, and fed it to the mice.A moment after the mouse ate it, it convulsed and died.
"The dose is too high."
Wei Qingdong halved what was already a small amount, and fed it again. The mouse was dizzy at first, and then quieted down, somewhat leisurely and contented.
Jia Amnesty then went out for tea with Wei Qingdong.
After a while, the two came back, and the mouse had already started to go crazy.
The mouse cage was facing Dr. Sun, so he could see the whole process clearly.Wei Qingdong turned around and moved out another cage covered with green cloth.Open the cloth cover, and you can see three dying and thin mice that are almost left with a puddle of gray skin.
Dr. Sun retched.
"Sophistry is unnecessary."
Jia Amnesty sat down and looked at Dr. Sun coldly.Jia She has investigated this person, and it seems that he came out of nowhere, but no one in Prince Qi's mansion knows his real name.
"What's your name?"
Dr. Sun lowered his eyes and waited for a long time before he finally stopped vomiting, and said in a very low voice: "Zhu Erwang."
"No wonder I checked all the doctors surnamed Sun in the capital, but I couldn't find a correct identity. It turns out that your name is Zhu Erwang." Jia She sneered and sighed, "What about your household registration?"
"Sanyuan Village, Puliu County."
Jia Amnesty immediately ordered someone to investigate.
"The ingredients of these two pills are the same, right?" Jia She asked.
Zhu Erwang nodded slowly.
"Then tell the truth how you have lied to King Qi for the past eight years." Jia She said.
Zhu Erwang looked at Jia Amnesty and wanted to negotiate terms, hoping that Jia Amnesty would let him leave after confessing.Jia She sneered and clapped his hands.
Liu Zhizhong, the Prime Minister of Gyeonggi Prefecture, came with a yamen messenger, who carried a cloth bag on his back, and then unfolded it, and you can see that there are various types of blade tools on it, including straight ones, curved ones, and all kinds of strange ones. shape.
Liu Zhizhong then began to talk to Zhu Erwang about the severity of Ling Chi's punishment, and introduced the identity of the executioner, and then discussed with the executioner which part of Zhu Erwang's body should be used.
Liu Zhizhong: "Or just like that fake Princess Orb, starting from the legs."
"The sole of the foot is good, it hurts and itches." The executioner laughed, "It's not bad to start with the nail, the most painful."
The executioner immediately grabbed Zhu Erwang's hand and carefully described how to do it with a knife.
Zhu Erwang fainted from fright, and was immediately woken up by the cold water.
Liu Zhi nodded emphatically, expressing his good opinion, and then asked Jia She what he thought.
Jia Amnesty put down his teacup, and said calmly, "I heard that he rules people and doesn't do anything."
Liu Zhizhong was stunned, a little confused.It was the executioner who had experienced many battles, and after a short reaction, he understood, and pointed his machete at Zhu Erwang's crotch.
"My lord is saying to start from here? It's wonderful!"
"don't want!"
Zhu Erwang was so frightened by the conversation between the two that his whole body trembled, almost out of his wits.
Suddenly they heard that they were going to dig him first... Zhu Erwang struggled and shouted, willing to confess.
Jia Amnesty asked the idlers to wait, and called Fang Zhenglu to record the confession.
"If a sentence is false and I find out, you know what will happen." Jia Amnesty warned Zhu Erwang.
Zhu Erwang nodded, then trembling his voice, while sweating coldly, he stated the story in fear.
At the beginning, Zhu Erwang was a doctor of Taoism in the palace, helping Concubine Rong exorcise evil spirits and diseases. To put it bluntly, he was a quack doctor who fooled people.He lived in Prince Qi's mansion for three years and had no worries about food and clothing, which made Zhu Erwang not want to go out and live a poor life wandering around.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Rong gradually felt that it was useless to keep him, so she thought of dismissing him. It happened that Zhu Erwang overheard the conversation between King Qi and an imperial doctor at this time, and knew the scandal of King Qi's refusal to raise him.He took advantage of the weakness of Qi Wang to fool Qi Wang.
Concubine Rong has always loved her only son, so King Qi insisted that Zhu Erwang stay, and Concubine Rong didn't care anymore.
King Qi's immobility is innate, but because he deliberately concealed it, Concubine Rong didn't know about it.Later, the king of Qi married the main concubine and side concubine, but also suffered from being dumb, and was threatened by the prince and dared not do anything wrong.Until five years ago, Concubine Zhang suddenly fainted in front of Concubine Rong, and the doctor called by Concubine Rong diagnosed her as pregnant.Concubine Rong waited for several years, and finally heard the good news that there was a successor in Prince Qi's residence. She was so happy that she directly handed the sign into the palace and spread it everywhere.King Qi knew about it later, and naturally knew that the child in Concubine Zhang's belly was not his own.So he forced Concubine Zhang to confess her adulterer, but Concubine Zhang refused to speak even to death, and even forced her to commit suicide.King Qi became angry because he was brought a green hat, so he turned to blame Zhu Erwang, why he hasn't been cured yet.
In order to save his life, Zhu Erwang made up a set of nonsense to tell King Qi that the reason why his medicine had only the effect of "refreshing" all the time, but failed to "lift" King Qi was because King Qi's poison was too deep. There is a lack of medicine to get rid of it, and this medicine is so contrary to common sense that he can't say it.Under Qi Wang's repeated questioning, Zhu Erwang was fascinated for a while, and said that Yao Yinnei was a freshly laid fetus just after one month old.Zhu Erwang was also afraid that King Qi would trouble him when he turned around, and said that this disease needs to be diagnosed and prescribed slowly, and it will take seven years to see the effect.
King Qi has consulted many famous doctors privately for his illness, but no one can cure him. Now that he has heard Zhu Erwang's diagnosis and treatment for a long time, he also thinks it is reasonable, and the method of replenishing yuan with yuan is also very reasonable.Right now, there is finally a way to give him hope of being cured. Of course, he must be willing to choose to become a normal man after seven years.King Qi later found out that the one in Concubine Zhang's belly was just right.Originally, Concubine Zhang had an affair, and the child was going to be aborted, so it didn't matter if it was used, so Concubine Zhang was forced to have an abortion, and the child was given to Zhu Erwang as a medicine.Concubine Zhang was also ashamed because of this incident, coupled with the severe physical injuries after the miscarriage, and her despair, she committed suicide within a few days.
From then on, because of the lies he told, Zhu Erwang had to have a freshly laid fetus every year.At first, King Qi asked people to look for it outside, but he found one with great difficulty, but it provoked criticism from outsiders, which almost ruined his reputation.After King Qi Liluo cut off his tongue, in the third year, he began to start with the women in his mansion, and let the guards with good looks and figures around him seduce the beauties in his courtyard.After Zhu Erwang learned the truth, he also wanted to stop it, but Qi Wang insisted on this, and said that it was just a test to see if those women would be willing to be loyal to him and not give him a cuckold.But whoever wavers, dies and deserves it.
Zhu Erwang didn't dare to make mistakes because he was afraid that he would betray himself, so he complied in this way, and has been to this day.
"After those women were forced to have miscarriages, they were all ashamed. Even if they didn't commit suicide, they also became mentally ill. They died of illnesses day by day, and the longest period did not exceed two months. Because the prince never sent people to send medicine to ask for a doctor. Treat these women, no matter whether you don’t ask, they will fend for themselves, as long as they deserve it. These years, the prince has always been able to feel refreshed after taking the medicine, and he has become dependent on the medicine. I was thinking of waiting for him to become addicted When you lose your mind, stop and stop abusing.”
After Zhu Erwang finished speaking, he closed his eyes, his face already covered with tears.
Jia She sneered, "You deserve to cry too."
"A person like you should be hacked into pieces. Even if you die, those children and women will not spare you in the underworld." Fang Zhenglu said angrily.
Jia Amnesty told Fang Zhenglu to remember to ask the fellow to sign and draw a deposit, and then he went straight out of the dungeon to breathe.
The black pig specially came to report: "The whistleblower who threw a note in the alley of Neighborhood Pavilion is here. It's a girl who covers her face with a white gauze. I took people along with that girl, and later discussed it with her when I saw no one. Can you tell the truth anonymously? The girl said that she was a servant girl next to a master of the palace. She said that Concubine Rong knew about the prince's illness after the accidental death of Concubine Zhang five years ago, and also knew about the prince's illness. There is no cure, and later I heard that Dr. Sun has a solution, so I let the two of them mess around, hoping that there will be a result in seven years. This time, the selection of concubine is made by Concubine Rong, who wants to recover from the illness It will be useful for the future prince to extend his heirs. In fact, these widowed women in the palace have already lived a life that would have been worse than death, and even the original Princess Qi was also in a bad mood, and gradually became depressed and fell ill and died."
Jia She suddenly remembered that when she went to visit Concubine Rong, there was a maid who served her personally by her side. The corners of the mouth drooped with anger and resentment.At that time, the expression was only for a moment, and Jia Amnesty was answering Concubine Rong's words again, but he was not very sure.Now listening to Heizhu's report, the girl's narrative perspective is mainly based on Concubine Rong, so it can be seen that it is probably the maid.
Jia Amnesty wrote Dr. Sun's testimony and the anonymous person's testimony together into a secret letter and submitted it to the emperor.
The emperor was shocked after seeing it, but he was very distressed about how to deal with it.Zhu Erwang's guilt is easy to determine, but King Qi...
King Qi asked the guards to seduce the women in the mansion first, and then he went to have an abortion.Fornication with a woman is a serious crime, and King Qi's method of handling it is not excessive.As for his behavior of sending guards to seduce, there is no more evidence, it is just Dr. Sun's own words.The emperor wasn't trying to argue for King Qi, but it was about the royal family and nobles. Once he said it at this time, if Concubine Rong made a fuss and the Empress Dowager interceded, I'm afraid the big issue would be reduced to nothing.
"Your Majesty, spare Prince Qi this time, he was just bewitched by others?" Jia Amnesty raised his eyebrows in displeasure and asked the emperor.
"He is not innocent. He designed to mutilate women and children for his own selfish desires. It is not enough for dozens of women to be his widows. He even wantonly chooses concubines and brings more women to be buried with him. Not to mention that he has embarrassed my royal family. The despicable behavior is no longer worthy of being a human being, even worse than a beast! However, Concubine Rong is not easy to deal with, after all, the old King Qi died for his country and made great achievements, and the Queen Mother will definitely ask me to show mercy to their mother and son."
The emperor frowned and sighed, then looked at Jia She, and suddenly remembered, "Don't you have a secret story about your neighbor? Write it down! Let the people of the world attack him, let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the natal family of his late main concubine and side concubine People, also come to join him. At that time, it will be useless for the Empress Dowager to plead, and I can take this opportunity to deal with him severely, so that he will never be allowed to enter the capital."
"This matter is very important, and it is related to the life and death of our family. If any of you dare to say something, if I hear the news and it gets to the ears of a third person, I don't care if that person is a reliable relative or friend. , beat them out with sticks, and I won’t recognize you!”
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang hurriedly agreed and kowtowed to Jia Mu together.
Jia's mother couldn't bear to ask for Jia's pardon, so she asked Jia Zheng and his wife to find it by themselves.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang didn't have the face to go, even if they really begged with shame, Jia Amnesty would definitely not give face.After the two looked at each other in embarrassment, they kowtowed and begged Mother Jia for help.
Mother Jia hated it so much that she glared at the couple, "You still know how to lose face, but you never thought that my old face would have been lost by you!"
Jia Zheng and his wife had no choice but to retreat hurriedly and ran towards Rongxi Hall.
Zhou Rui's family, who was sent to spread the word first, was kicked out before he could finish speaking.
Mrs. Wang complained to her: "You should hurry up and let him know that this matter has already reached Prince Qi's residence."
Zhou Rui's family kept her mouth shut, and when she opened her mouth when she entered the courtyard, she was forced out, what could she do.
Jia Zheng urged Mrs. Wang to come in and talk.
"I'm a married woman, is it appropriate to go to your brother's yard?" Mrs. Wang hated Jia Zheng for not being up to date, and asked him to investigate this matter carefully, who knew he was so incompetent.
Jia Zheng went in by himself.
Zhou Rui's family couldn't help it, and asked Mrs. Wang curiously: "Madam, what's the matter, I have to work with you and the master to beg him, what news went to Qi Wang's mansion?"
Mrs. Wang hurriedly said sharply: "Shut up and don't ask more questions."
Zhou Rui's family shut up resentfully, stood behind Mrs. Wang, secretly glanced at the back of Mrs. Wang's head with dissatisfaction, and sneered inwardly.Forget it, thanks to the fact that the master doesn't trust her so much, she can go and leave a way out for herself with peace of mind.
After all, Jia Zheng is a master, and his mother-in-law has to give some face.Of course he didn't specifically mention the matter of King Qi's non-judgment, but just asked the mother-in-law to pass it on as soon as possible, telling Jia Amnesty that the Qi Palace had already got the news, and the situation was somewhat irreversible.After entering the room for a while, Mrs. Yin came out to salute Jia Zheng and shook her head.
"He didn't say anything?" Jia Zheng asked.
Mrs. Yin shook her head, "No, the master was reading a book, and he gave me a look after hearing what I said, so I quickly backed out."
Jia Zheng was in a hurry and wanted to go in.
Mrs. Yin hurriedly persuaded: "Although this old slave doesn't know what the second master is worried about, but according to our master's temperament, he didn't say anything after knowing the matter, so he didn't want to care about it. You can't say anything if you go in now I'm afraid that there will still be arguments, why don't you let the master think about it first, and the second master will ask tomorrow?"
Mrs. Wang also came over now, and grabbed Jia Zheng's arm to persuade him to go back.At this critical juncture, if you get angry with others and offend them completely, I'm afraid the situation will be even more difficult to deal with.
The husband and wife turned back to Jia Mu and told what had happened.Jia Zheng was angry with Jia She's attitude, and deliberately added fuel to the picture, saying that Jia She was putting on airs and was a little arrogant.
"What people said at the beginning, this matter is not good, you insisted on deciding on your own, and agreed to this marriage. Now the matter has been messed up by you, and you still have the face to blame others. What did you say later, kneel down Beg me to persuade me, don't you want others to help you!"
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang repeatedly kowtowed to Jiamu, listening to Jiamu scolding sullenly, not daring to complain.
Jia Mu was so angry that she trembled willingly, and her face turned pale. Thanks to the mandarin duck glass to protect Zhou Quan and give her a smooth ride, otherwise she would faint from anger.
"Old lady, the Elder Master wants to help with this matter. It can't be solved tonight, so we have to wait until tomorrow. The servants will help you to rest first, so you can relax?" Glass asked.
Mother Jia clutched her chest, took a deep breath and then let out a sigh of relief, she felt better for a moment, but the next moment her chest was still extremely depressed
Mother Jia sighed several times, and finally was helped into the room by the maids.
In the end, Jia Mu didn't let Jia Zheng and his wife get up, and they didn't dare to get up, so they knelt in the flower hall all night.
Jia's mother tossed and turned until midnight, before she fell asleep for an hour.After waking up in the morning, she heard that the second couple had knelt down all night, and her anger towards them subsided a little.
Jia Amnesty came on time to make arrangements for Jia Mu.
Jia Amnesty saw that there were maids waiting for orders outside the house, and no one went in to serve him, so he knew that those people were waiting for him.
Jia Amnesty then entered the flower hall.
Jia Zheng and his wife hurriedly stood up and looked at Jia Amnesty pitifully.Jia's mother was not in good spirits either, her eyes lit up when she saw Jia Amnesty, and she gave Jia Amnesty a smile with all her energy.
"Boss, this is the end of the matter, you can't just watch your niece enter the fire pit of Prince Qi's mansion."
"It's just that I can't just sit and watch, so I made it clear beforehand, listen to me. In this situation, let me save something. If you can't help it, you think I can. What are you being a prince or concubine? What is majesty? Is it something that a small official like me can offend?" Jia Amnesty squinted at Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, "Who is greedy for fame and profit, and is afraid that things will change, so he can't wait to get married right away, so he rushes to spread the news. Yes. Whoever makes the trouble is responsible, I really can't control it."
Jia Mu frowned, and called out in a pleading tone: "Boss!"
"Okay, do you really think I have a way?" Jia She smiled helplessly, "Then you just tell me what to do, and I will do exactly what you say."
Mother Jia was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Jia She to say that, after thinking about it, she was not sure: "Why don't you ask Lord Song to help you intercede?"
"As a junior, he can manage the emperor's aunt? Besides, he is a man with a foreign surname, how can he interfere in the marriage of other people's girls? If he speaks out, he is not afraid of being criticized and laughed at. Let's not say that he definitely doesn't want to get involved in such a thing." Son, even our family Yuanchun's reputation is not good."
"I just remembered that this child has never been reunited." Jia's mother looked at Jia Amnesty.
"Yeah, that's because he doesn't like women." Jia She simply replied.
"Don't like women?" Mother Jia was very surprised and reacted for a long time.
Jia Amnesty: "Isn't this known all over the world?"
Mother Jia slowed down and muttered, "It's written in the neighbor's family history."
Mrs. Wang also knew something, but she was still a little shocked to hear Jia She said so personally.Jia Zheng was even more shocked. He always thought that Song Xi was just a flirtatious talent who liked to play tricks, but he didn't expect that he only liked men purely.
"Let's not talk about him. You can ask the empress and the emperor for this matter. What kind of a powerful person is that Concubine Rong? If she gets angry, no one can cure her, even the emperor. Back then, the king of Qi He died for his country again, with great merit, who would take the initiative to provoke such trouble for a girl who is a fifth-rank official in the Duke's mansion. Even if he provokes, there is nothing he can do. If he can't be persuaded to come back, it is useless to work hard." Jia She explained.
Mother Jia died when she heard this, she was so angry that she shed tears, and pointed at Jia Zheng and his wife with shaking fingers, "Let you make trouble, what should we do now?"
Jia Zheng was also annoyed, and after reflecting on himself for a while, he turned to Jia She and asked, "Are you not sure about King Qi's refusal?"
Jia Amnesty immediately understood what Jia Zheng meant, and sneered.
"Who said this must be true."
Jia Zheng continued talking, and then looked at Jia Mu. Anyway, the matter was irreparable, so he let Yuan Chun marry like this.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Zheng in surprise.
Mrs. Wang didn't dare to speak anymore, she had already suffered a loss, this time she couldn't talk nonsense anymore.
"Then that's how you plan to settle the marriage?" Mother Jia asked Jia Zheng tentatively.
With a cold face, Jia Zheng said helplessly, "I can only take one risk."
Jia She glanced at him sideways, and his sneer grew louder.
"What a crime!" Mother Jia cried.
Jia Zheng hurriedly kowtowed to make amends, only saying that this was an adventure, and that Prince Qi was very likely to be a normal person.
"What do you say about Dongxing, just give me a written statement, and promise that I won't ask me to cling to me, blame me and complain about me in the future." Jia Amnesty called out to the door, and asked them to prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones immediately.
When Jia Zheng heard this, he was a little scared.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Amnesty with tears in her eyes: "Boss, you don't have to be so serious."
"But when things happen, they come to me very seriously one by one. I have warned everyone in advance. What do you want me to do? I think it is best to say something in writing in the future, in black and white. No one can deny it." Jia Amnesty asked the servant girl to set up the pen and ink, and then sent it away for Jia Zheng to write.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Mu, wanting to wait for her to say something fair.
"Why, are you too guilty?" Jia She asked.
As soon as Jia Zheng got angry, he picked up a pen and wrote.
"Just write that Yuanchun's participation in the selection of concubines in the Qi Palace is your own decision, and it has nothing to do with others. You did not listen to my advice and decided that there is nothing wrong with Prince Qi. If you find anything related to him in the future, it has nothing to do with me, let alone You won't complain and beg me." Jia She said.
"Boss!" Jia's mother felt that Jia Amnesty's behavior was too outrageous.
Jia She sneered: "It's a pity that Yuanchun is an innocent girl who will fall into the mud just after she came out of the deep pool. Don't blame me, thanks to her parents who seek fame and fortune!"
"Who do you think seeks fame and profit?" Jia Zheng dropped his pen, blushing and glaring at Jia Amnesty angrily.
"Ask yourself, are you really thinking about Yuan Chun and finding a good home for her? You just want to make yourself look good, but you are not capable and plan to sell your daughter for glory!" Jia She sneered.
Mother Jia hurriedly yelled to keep them quiet, and she was out of breath and a little dizzy.
"If elder brother dislikes us so much, we'll just move out," Jia Zheng said.
"The second child is going to separate." Jia Amnesty turned to Jia's mother.
Jia Zheng: "..."
Mother Jia: "..."
"Great Zhou Law Discussion" Grandparents, parents are still there, but the children and grandchildren are from different backgrounds, and they have no filial piety.Three years.
Jia Amnesty memorized this passage very well. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, separating families while parents are still alive is one of the "Ten Evils".
But now that Jia Zheng is willing, there is no harm to him.If he is willing to go to jail, let him go. Anyway, for a father who betrayed his daughter like this, three years in prison will be cheap for him.
Jia Zheng hurriedly wanted to change his words.
Jia She couldn't let him say it again, he knew: "If you didn't have such thoughts, how could you say such a thing. No one is stopping you, come and pack the things for the second room."
When Jia Zheng heard this, his face paled with fright, and he quickly knelt on the ground, pouted his buttocks and kowtowed to Jia's mother to apologize for his mistake, explaining that he had spoken indiscriminately and spoke out of anger.
Jia Mu: "Okay, stop arguing! I should go, stay here and get angry!"
Jia Zheng hurriedly continued to make amends.
Jia Amnesty remained silent.
Mother Jia glanced at Jia Amnesty, the servant looked indifferent, probably wishing her to leave.Jia's mother became cold and angry when she thought about it, so bored that her whole heart felt uncomfortable.The boss is in front of her now, and he does everything strictly. He does everything that should be filial, but he doesn't do any extra things.You can't make mistakes, but you are also alienated and indifferent, making people feel indifferent and terrible.
The eldest son has inherited the title and is still a first-rank official, and now he is winning the holy family.She has to bear it.
Jia Mu had a splitting headache, she supported her head, weakly.
Jia Amnesty: "Mother is not in good health, so don't worry about it. The matter was caused by the second brother, so let the second brother handle it by himself. Yuanyang, quickly ask a doctor to come and show the old lady."
As soon as Jia's mother was helped away, Jia She walked away without raising her eyelids.
Mrs. Wang didn't know what to do, she was terrified of Jia She, he didn't dare to mess with him because he had something to do with her.Jia Zheng was stunned for a while, but he didn't catch up after all, he still wanted face.
Jia Zheng turned to blame Mrs. Wang for making a wrong decision, and she had listened to her sister's gossip when she decided not to get married.Mrs. Wang retorted that Jia Zheng made mistakes in the investigation and was also involved in it.The couple ended up having an argument and broke up.
Mrs. Wang was very angry, and she didn't want to follow Jia Zheng back to the East Court to quarrel with him, so she went to Aunt Xue's place.Aunt Xue didn't know that Yuanchun's marriage was going to change, she smiled and congratulated, and asked if the things that were settled yesterday were notified to Concubine Nan'an and passed on to Prince Qi's mansion.
Mrs. Wang said nothing.
Aunt Xue thought she didn't understand, so she explained: "It's better to settle this matter sooner. If we get the letter, my sister can feel at ease sooner."
Mrs. Wang bit her lip, the more she heard Aunt Xue's words, the angrier she became. "It would be great if you didn't tell me about it!" Mrs. Wang threw off the handkerchief in her hand angrily, got up and left in a hurry.
Aunt Xue didn't understand why Mrs. Wang got angry suddenly, so she hurriedly called her to ask.Mrs. Wang didn't show her face, so she just left.
Baochai happened to come over and asked what was going on.
"I don't know, it's very good. I didn't say anything wrong, but I'm playing with my temper." Aunt Xue frowned, then turned to see Yinger holding an empty box in her hand, and asked Baochai strangely, "You Where did this come from?"
"Go and see the second girl." Baochai said reluctantly.
"What happened?"
Baochai smiled, "It's nothing. I kindly brought her a pair of jade bracelets. After she thanked her, she sent me another jade bracelet. It's nothing interesting."
Sincerely trying to please, but in exchange for the other party to treat him plainly, Baochai's heart is inevitably a little bit disappointed.When she used to treat people with small favors, those people were extremely enthusiastic towards her, even Tanchun and Xichun were the same.However, Yingchun and Daiyu in the Rong Mansion did not buy her, but rather disliked her.
"It's normal for you girls to give one away. You have to match whoever you like, and not everyone likes these gold and silver treasures. I think Yingchun and Daiyu have high vision. Next time you Just change it." After Aunt Xue said that, she asked someone to find out what happened to the Rong Mansion from last night to this morning.
Not long after, the mother-in-law told Aunt Xue what happened.
"Do you know why you don't want this kiss?" Aunt Xue was shocked and asked hurriedly.
"I don't know, even Zhou Rui's family didn't know about it. Last night, the old lady and the second master and the second wife muttered alone for a long time. The old lady seemed to be angry, very angry." The woman said.
Aunt Xue thought about it, and guessed there must be something wrong with Prince Qi's mansion, so didn't she say something wrong before?Aunt Xue was so annoyed that she really wanted to slap herself on the mouth.How did she get involved in other people's family affairs?She insisted on saying those things to her eldest sister, but now she has offended others and lost money.
Aunt Xue sighed, feeling sorry for the 3 taels of silver that was given away for nothing.Ben also counted on relying on this to help the second wife, and after Yuan Chun became a side concubine, Rong Mansion would become their Xue family's future support.Aunt Xue also has the idea of kissing and being a kiss, so as to strengthen this relationship.
Unexpectedly, this frivolous remark ruined all her plans.
Baochai saw Aunt Xue was crying anxiously, and asked Aunt Xue why she was so worried about Rongfu.Aunt Xue told Baochai about her talkative story.
Baochai: "You are confused. Why do you want to meddle in their family affairs? Now we absolutely cannot live in this Rong Mansion. If we leave early, we may get a good deal. If we stay still, people will feel disgusted."
Aunt Xue nodded, and sent people back to Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu, and asked Xue Pan to take people to clean up the old house and move out some day.
Mrs. Wang was worrying about Yuan Chun, when she heard this, she sent Zhou Rui's family to Zhou Xiang to say a few words, and politely stayed with them for a while, if they still insisted, they would not stay.The same is true for Jiamu.After all, Aunt Xue felt cold. She could have waited two days, so she asked someone to pack up and move out in a hurry that afternoon.The Rong Mansion was quite polite to the Xue family, helping to prepare the carriage and sending them a lot of things, it was considered to be taking care of the Xue family in face.
After Jia Amnesty came out from Yushitai at noon, he happened to meet King Qi.
King Qi was about to go to Yushitai, when he saw him there, he smiled and said, "It's better to come early than to come by coincidence, just in time to find you."
"What's the matter, my lord?" Jia She asked.
"Geng Junliang, the city patrolling general, patrolled the city without authorization and surprised my car. I heard that he is a bully. You are the doctor of the imperial history. This kind of thing is your official?" Qi Wang smiled and poked it with his finger. Jia She's shoulder, as if the relationship between them is very close.
Jia Amnesty raised the corners of his mouth, with a half-smile, "Thank you, my lord, for letting me know. The next official will investigate."
King Qi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's good that you understand."
After all, he swaggered away.
Zhu Mao leaned in front of his master, "What does Prince Qi mean?"
"The wolf showed his tail, who said he is honest and kind,"
When Zhu Mao heard the words, he was about to say that it was Mr. Song, but then he heard another sentence from his master.
"Blind."
Pig hair: "..."
Today happened to be the sixth day of the eighth month, when Jia Amnesty met Dr. Sun of Prince Qi's residence.It's not so much seeing, it's better to say arrest.
When Jia Amnesty arrived at Xiayang Tower, he saw the plainclothes secret guards he had arranged to ambush inside and outside the restaurant, as well as near the back alley.
The place where Xiayang Restaurant is located, the front entrance is bustling with people, very lively, but the back alley is very quiet, hardly anyone walks around.
The black pig pretended to be a beggar, and came to ask Jia She for money. While shaking the bowl in his hand, he whispered to Jia She: "Here I am, I am in room No. [-] in Tianzi, and I have been waiting for a while."
Jia Amnesty nodded, and sent Zhu Mao up to spread the word, asking that Dr. Sun to find him in the back alley by himself.
Jia Amnesty took the carriage to the back alley and waited.
Not long after, Jia Amnesty saw Dr. Sun approaching on foot.Around the same time, a group of people gathered up, directly grabbed Dr. Sun, tied him up and gagged him, and stuffed him into Jia Amnesty's carriage.
Jia Amnesty got into the car and asked someone to drive straight to Gyeonggi Province.
"The bearers are all chatting and waiting outside the Xiayang Tower. They don't know. The boy who came with him, Hei Zhu, was also sent away." After Zhu Mao explained, he retracted his neck.
Hearing these words, Dr. Sun glared at Jia She with a bad feeling and let out a groan.
Jia Amnesty asked him directly: "Is it true that King Qi didn't move?"
When Dr. Sun heard this, his eyes popped and he struggled even more.
Seeing that Dr. Sun's chest was bulging, Jia She took out two boxes, a brocade box and a wooden box.The last time Jia Amnesty saw the brocade box was the medicine box that Dr. Sun brought to cure his illness.The other wooden box was very special, it was black, with exquisite patterns carved on it, much more delicate than the one given to him before.After Jia Amnesty opened it, he saw a pill inside, so he took one and smelled it.
"It seems to be the same as the one given to me before. Who is this fooling?"
Dr. Sun was still whining frantically.
"I guess it's for the prince. It's convenient for you to live in Prince Qi's mansion, so you just give it one at a time, and you package it so delicately on purpose, just to make King Qi think that you are a miracle medicine." Jia She smiled and closed the box. "It's useless to struggle, you can't escape. You committed a crime by cheating and abducting, and I will arrest you as an official of the court according to law."
Dr. Sun's eyes were red, and he shook his head at Jia She, as if to prove his innocence.
"I asked someone to investigate, the prescriptions in your pills, marijuana, and Afulan?"
Dr. Sun's face became terrified, cold sweat soon broke out on his forehead, and the struggle was not so violent.
"Let me guess, the medicine you used to treat King Qi's failure to lift is also the same. But after so long, he didn't recover, but he didn't kill you. You must have made up some lies to deceive him. If I turn around, I will tell you Tell Qi Wang clearly about the real harm of this medicine, and expose your deceitful tactics by the way, you said Qi Wangye will punish you after you lose face in public?"
Dr. Sun was honest and looked at Jia Amnesty quietly, with cold sweat rolling on his forehead, which soon wet his temples.
At the gate of Gyeonggi Mansion, Jia She deliberately opened the curtain and asked Dr. Sun to take a look.Only then did the coachman and horse drive the car into the backyard of Gyeonggi Prefecture.Seeing that Jia She really sent him to the government, Dr. Sun was so frightened that he lost his soul. He struggled to get up and knelt down to beg Jia amnesty, but found that he couldn't kneel, so he nodded his head to Jia She.
Jia Amnesty asked someone to wrap Dr. Sun in a cloth, and took him directly to the dungeon in Gyeonggi Province for interrogation.
Wuzuo Wei Qingdong had been waiting here for a long time.
After Dr. Sun was tied to the torture tool, someone took the things from his mouth.Dr. Sun yelled loudly, but after a few times, there was no other response except that the people in the room looked at him coldly and disgustedly.
Dr. Sun became more and more frightened.
Jia Amnesty handed the wooden box to Wei Qingdong.Wei Qingdong took out a small piece with a tool, stuffed it into a steamed bun, and fed it to the mice.A moment after the mouse ate it, it convulsed and died.
"The dose is too high."
Wei Qingdong halved what was already a small amount, and fed it again. The mouse was dizzy at first, and then quieted down, somewhat leisurely and contented.
Jia Amnesty then went out for tea with Wei Qingdong.
After a while, the two came back, and the mouse had already started to go crazy.
The mouse cage was facing Dr. Sun, so he could see the whole process clearly.Wei Qingdong turned around and moved out another cage covered with green cloth.Open the cloth cover, and you can see three dying and thin mice that are almost left with a puddle of gray skin.
Dr. Sun retched.
"Sophistry is unnecessary."
Jia Amnesty sat down and looked at Dr. Sun coldly.Jia She has investigated this person, and it seems that he came out of nowhere, but no one in Prince Qi's mansion knows his real name.
"What's your name?"
Dr. Sun lowered his eyes and waited for a long time before he finally stopped vomiting, and said in a very low voice: "Zhu Erwang."
"No wonder I checked all the doctors surnamed Sun in the capital, but I couldn't find a correct identity. It turns out that your name is Zhu Erwang." Jia She sneered and sighed, "What about your household registration?"
"Sanyuan Village, Puliu County."
Jia Amnesty immediately ordered someone to investigate.
"The ingredients of these two pills are the same, right?" Jia She asked.
Zhu Erwang nodded slowly.
"Then tell the truth how you have lied to King Qi for the past eight years." Jia She said.
Zhu Erwang looked at Jia Amnesty and wanted to negotiate terms, hoping that Jia Amnesty would let him leave after confessing.Jia She sneered and clapped his hands.
Liu Zhizhong, the Prime Minister of Gyeonggi Prefecture, came with a yamen messenger, who carried a cloth bag on his back, and then unfolded it, and you can see that there are various types of blade tools on it, including straight ones, curved ones, and all kinds of strange ones. shape.
Liu Zhizhong then began to talk to Zhu Erwang about the severity of Ling Chi's punishment, and introduced the identity of the executioner, and then discussed with the executioner which part of Zhu Erwang's body should be used.
Liu Zhizhong: "Or just like that fake Princess Orb, starting from the legs."
"The sole of the foot is good, it hurts and itches." The executioner laughed, "It's not bad to start with the nail, the most painful."
The executioner immediately grabbed Zhu Erwang's hand and carefully described how to do it with a knife.
Zhu Erwang fainted from fright, and was immediately woken up by the cold water.
Liu Zhi nodded emphatically, expressing his good opinion, and then asked Jia She what he thought.
Jia Amnesty put down his teacup, and said calmly, "I heard that he rules people and doesn't do anything."
Liu Zhizhong was stunned, a little confused.It was the executioner who had experienced many battles, and after a short reaction, he understood, and pointed his machete at Zhu Erwang's crotch.
"My lord is saying to start from here? It's wonderful!"
"don't want!"
Zhu Erwang was so frightened by the conversation between the two that his whole body trembled, almost out of his wits.
Suddenly they heard that they were going to dig him first... Zhu Erwang struggled and shouted, willing to confess.
Jia Amnesty asked the idlers to wait, and called Fang Zhenglu to record the confession.
"If a sentence is false and I find out, you know what will happen." Jia Amnesty warned Zhu Erwang.
Zhu Erwang nodded, then trembling his voice, while sweating coldly, he stated the story in fear.
At the beginning, Zhu Erwang was a doctor of Taoism in the palace, helping Concubine Rong exorcise evil spirits and diseases. To put it bluntly, he was a quack doctor who fooled people.He lived in Prince Qi's mansion for three years and had no worries about food and clothing, which made Zhu Erwang not want to go out and live a poor life wandering around.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Rong gradually felt that it was useless to keep him, so she thought of dismissing him. It happened that Zhu Erwang overheard the conversation between King Qi and an imperial doctor at this time, and knew the scandal of King Qi's refusal to raise him.He took advantage of the weakness of Qi Wang to fool Qi Wang.
Concubine Rong has always loved her only son, so King Qi insisted that Zhu Erwang stay, and Concubine Rong didn't care anymore.
King Qi's immobility is innate, but because he deliberately concealed it, Concubine Rong didn't know about it.Later, the king of Qi married the main concubine and side concubine, but also suffered from being dumb, and was threatened by the prince and dared not do anything wrong.Until five years ago, Concubine Zhang suddenly fainted in front of Concubine Rong, and the doctor called by Concubine Rong diagnosed her as pregnant.Concubine Rong waited for several years, and finally heard the good news that there was a successor in Prince Qi's residence. She was so happy that she directly handed the sign into the palace and spread it everywhere.King Qi knew about it later, and naturally knew that the child in Concubine Zhang's belly was not his own.So he forced Concubine Zhang to confess her adulterer, but Concubine Zhang refused to speak even to death, and even forced her to commit suicide.King Qi became angry because he was brought a green hat, so he turned to blame Zhu Erwang, why he hasn't been cured yet.
In order to save his life, Zhu Erwang made up a set of nonsense to tell King Qi that the reason why his medicine had only the effect of "refreshing" all the time, but failed to "lift" King Qi was because King Qi's poison was too deep. There is a lack of medicine to get rid of it, and this medicine is so contrary to common sense that he can't say it.Under Qi Wang's repeated questioning, Zhu Erwang was fascinated for a while, and said that Yao Yinnei was a freshly laid fetus just after one month old.Zhu Erwang was also afraid that King Qi would trouble him when he turned around, and said that this disease needs to be diagnosed and prescribed slowly, and it will take seven years to see the effect.
King Qi has consulted many famous doctors privately for his illness, but no one can cure him. Now that he has heard Zhu Erwang's diagnosis and treatment for a long time, he also thinks it is reasonable, and the method of replenishing yuan with yuan is also very reasonable.Right now, there is finally a way to give him hope of being cured. Of course, he must be willing to choose to become a normal man after seven years.King Qi later found out that the one in Concubine Zhang's belly was just right.Originally, Concubine Zhang had an affair, and the child was going to be aborted, so it didn't matter if it was used, so Concubine Zhang was forced to have an abortion, and the child was given to Zhu Erwang as a medicine.Concubine Zhang was also ashamed because of this incident, coupled with the severe physical injuries after the miscarriage, and her despair, she committed suicide within a few days.
From then on, because of the lies he told, Zhu Erwang had to have a freshly laid fetus every year.At first, King Qi asked people to look for it outside, but he found one with great difficulty, but it provoked criticism from outsiders, which almost ruined his reputation.After King Qi Liluo cut off his tongue, in the third year, he began to start with the women in his mansion, and let the guards with good looks and figures around him seduce the beauties in his courtyard.After Zhu Erwang learned the truth, he also wanted to stop it, but Qi Wang insisted on this, and said that it was just a test to see if those women would be willing to be loyal to him and not give him a cuckold.But whoever wavers, dies and deserves it.
Zhu Erwang didn't dare to make mistakes because he was afraid that he would betray himself, so he complied in this way, and has been to this day.
"After those women were forced to have miscarriages, they were all ashamed. Even if they didn't commit suicide, they also became mentally ill. They died of illnesses day by day, and the longest period did not exceed two months. Because the prince never sent people to send medicine to ask for a doctor. Treat these women, no matter whether you don’t ask, they will fend for themselves, as long as they deserve it. These years, the prince has always been able to feel refreshed after taking the medicine, and he has become dependent on the medicine. I was thinking of waiting for him to become addicted When you lose your mind, stop and stop abusing.”
After Zhu Erwang finished speaking, he closed his eyes, his face already covered with tears.
Jia She sneered, "You deserve to cry too."
"A person like you should be hacked into pieces. Even if you die, those children and women will not spare you in the underworld." Fang Zhenglu said angrily.
Jia Amnesty told Fang Zhenglu to remember to ask the fellow to sign and draw a deposit, and then he went straight out of the dungeon to breathe.
The black pig specially came to report: "The whistleblower who threw a note in the alley of Neighborhood Pavilion is here. It's a girl who covers her face with a white gauze. I took people along with that girl, and later discussed it with her when I saw no one. Can you tell the truth anonymously? The girl said that she was a servant girl next to a master of the palace. She said that Concubine Rong knew about the prince's illness after the accidental death of Concubine Zhang five years ago, and also knew about the prince's illness. There is no cure, and later I heard that Dr. Sun has a solution, so I let the two of them mess around, hoping that there will be a result in seven years. This time, the selection of concubine is made by Concubine Rong, who wants to recover from the illness It will be useful for the future prince to extend his heirs. In fact, these widowed women in the palace have already lived a life that would have been worse than death, and even the original Princess Qi was also in a bad mood, and gradually became depressed and fell ill and died."
Jia She suddenly remembered that when she went to visit Concubine Rong, there was a maid who served her personally by her side. The corners of the mouth drooped with anger and resentment.At that time, the expression was only for a moment, and Jia Amnesty was answering Concubine Rong's words again, but he was not very sure.Now listening to Heizhu's report, the girl's narrative perspective is mainly based on Concubine Rong, so it can be seen that it is probably the maid.
Jia Amnesty wrote Dr. Sun's testimony and the anonymous person's testimony together into a secret letter and submitted it to the emperor.
The emperor was shocked after seeing it, but he was very distressed about how to deal with it.Zhu Erwang's guilt is easy to determine, but King Qi...
King Qi asked the guards to seduce the women in the mansion first, and then he went to have an abortion.Fornication with a woman is a serious crime, and King Qi's method of handling it is not excessive.As for his behavior of sending guards to seduce, there is no more evidence, it is just Dr. Sun's own words.The emperor wasn't trying to argue for King Qi, but it was about the royal family and nobles. Once he said it at this time, if Concubine Rong made a fuss and the Empress Dowager interceded, I'm afraid the big issue would be reduced to nothing.
"Your Majesty, spare Prince Qi this time, he was just bewitched by others?" Jia Amnesty raised his eyebrows in displeasure and asked the emperor.
"He is not innocent. He designed to mutilate women and children for his own selfish desires. It is not enough for dozens of women to be his widows. He even wantonly chooses concubines and brings more women to be buried with him. Not to mention that he has embarrassed my royal family. The despicable behavior is no longer worthy of being a human being, even worse than a beast! However, Concubine Rong is not easy to deal with, after all, the old King Qi died for his country and made great achievements, and the Queen Mother will definitely ask me to show mercy to their mother and son."
The emperor frowned and sighed, then looked at Jia She, and suddenly remembered, "Don't you have a secret story about your neighbor? Write it down! Let the people of the world attack him, let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the natal family of his late main concubine and side concubine People, also come to join him. At that time, it will be useless for the Empress Dowager to plead, and I can take this opportunity to deal with him severely, so that he will never be allowed to enter the capital."
