Emperor Nagasawa [Rebirth]

Chapter 27 Untie the knot [1]

Spring is as bright and brilliant as ever.But for the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, the spring of this year was oppressed with unspeakable gloom.

Just half a month after the death of Shishuling, Ting Wei followed the clues and found out six corrupt officials.And these six people could only admit that everything was true in the face of solid evidence, that is, they were beheaded by Jiang Ze without hesitation, and their homes were ransacked to fill the national treasury.As a result, all the people in the court were panicked all of a sudden, and the atmosphere in the court became more and more awkward, and it was unknown when it would return to calm.

Among the six people, one was one of the young mansions of the current dynasty, and he was also the one who had always supported Jiang Su.In view of past love, Jiang Su saved his parents, wife and children, but that was all.

But Jiang Ze hasn't stopped yet, so Ting Wei can only bite the bullet and continue to investigate.

He didn't know what else he could find out, he only knew that if this continued, the whole court might be in chaos.

In fact, at this time, all the officials in the daily court have been admonishing again and again, expressing both openly and secretly that Jiang Zechu's power is unstable, so don't go too far.After all, water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize it!

But Jiang Ze didn't care about these things - after reliving his life, his temper has really improved a lot.If someone dared to talk to him like this in the previous life, he would have been taken down to try the real "water can overturn the boat".However, considering that Jiang Su was watching from the sidelines, he really shouldn't deal with it too cruelly, so he just raised his eyebrows casually: How many officials died today, these places will be filled in the future, so as to ensure the normal operation of the court.So those who don't want to die should stand up and surrender earlier.

The right minister was so angry that he almost fainted; the left minister was full of anger, and suppressed the anger in his heart and bowed his head respectfully.Of course, more people were really scared to death by Jiang Ze's words that regarded human life as worthless, and they were scared and worried all day long.

Freedom of speech in today's world, criticizing the emperor is a felony.However, in times of crisis, officials will naturally gather together to discuss countermeasures. The euphemistic name is: prevent Jiang Ze from being deceived by villains and destroying the civil and military affairs of the dynasty, and ignoring the country and the people.

Jiang Su was among them.

Today is a holiday, and usually he will go back to the palace to accompany Jiang Ze to review the backlog of memorials in the past few days.But since Prime Minister Right asked him to be there, he accepted the invitation.

After arriving at the scene, Jiang Su took the main seat, but listened quietly for a whole hour without saying a word.He knew that most of the literati had great mouths, but he didn't know that this group of people could chatter endlessly without a single dirty word, and criticize Jiang Ze from head to toe to the point of bruising.

Jiang Su tightened his grip on the teacup a little bit.

Those who are further away have not noticed, but the right minister sitting beside him looks at his increasingly gentle face, trembling inexplicably.

So when someone finally let out a long sigh, as if saying something, "If the king today is Your Highness...my colleagues and I don't have to suffer this crime", the right hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled, and the hot tea was poured out. The splash made the back of his hand red.

Xu Shi's expression on the right was wrong, and the breath in the field froze for a moment.But immediately afterward, everyone hurriedly responded to the man as if they had suddenly awakened.

Jiang Su raised his eyes.

He was indifferent to the series of sighs from the crowd, and only glanced at the man lightly, then closed his eyes and raised his lips, drawing an extremely mocking smile.

It's a good sentence to add a crime.

What a tease.

Not to mention how the Ting Wei found out the evidence if those people had never been corrupt and bribed; let's talk about what he is using to seize the throne now.

Although he has been in the imperial court since he was 11 years old to discuss affairs and participate in politics, he has accumulated a lot of reputation among the people in the following ten years, and even has many followers. Therefore, he has lost power now, and most people have never made trouble, but that's all.After all, since ancient times, the emperor has been ordered by the heaven, and the world has been ordered by the emperor, even if Jiang Ze is a little unreliable-as long as Jiang Ze is not violent and disregards human life, it is impossible for the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of the world to breed any resistance.Of course, if it weren't for the serious involvement in the corruption case that forced these people hard, there would never be such instigation and suggestion that he conspired against him.

In the same way, the current Jiang Ze is just acting a little unknown, not unjust and helpless.On the contrary, he started to clean up the moths hidden in the court, and he was eliminating harm for the people.When the people heard about it, they would only feel happy and supported Jiang Ze very much.

This is the so-called popular will, and Jiang Su knows it very well.

Except for the officials and the will of the world, the two most important things for rebellion: wealth and soldiers, he has nothing.

The previous dynasty collapsed and the world was divided into five parts. The monarchs of all countries learned from the previous dynasty's lessons and firmly held the army in their hands, ensuring that they could freely dispatch all soldiers and horses as much as possible.Apart from the Son of Heaven, only the Taiwei has this honor, but before mobilizing troops and horses, he also needs to ask the Son of Heaven for instructions, and the Son of Heaven bestows the other half of the Tiger Talisman.

Today's Taiwei is Jiang Su's art of war teacher, but because of the deep love between the two brothers when they were young, they are also Jiang Ze's teacher.Although he had praised Jiang Su's style of Confucianism countless times, he was even more amazed by Jiang Ze's strange and cunning use of troops, and lamented the cruelty of his methods.Based on Jiang Su's understanding of his teacher, as long as Jiang Ze is not as insane as King Zhou You, he will never support such a cholera thing as brother killing each other.

He wanted to rebel, but if he couldn't rebel against the Taiwei, he would have no choice but to keep it in the dark and attack the palace suddenly.

But how difficult is this?

When his mansion was destroyed in the past, Jiang Ze replaced the entire guard of the capital without worrying about it. The Weiwei alone was replaced by many people. The most important thing was that Guang Luxun, among the nine ministers, was replaced by the eldest son of their teacher.As long as he dares to instigate rebellion, I believe it will not be long before this upright man whom he regards as his elder brother will tell Jiang Ze about it without saying a word, and lead the troops to take him down.

Half a year ago, when Jiang Su decided to rebel, he decided on the most gentle method: pretending to be helpless, lowering Jiang Ze's vigilance, recruiting officials secretly, spreading his reputation in the world, and seizing military power when his reputation reaches its peak. The throne is naturally his stuff in the bag.

It's a pity that the ideal is extremely full, and the reality is too skinny.

In just half a year, the situation in Kyoto has changed rapidly—or rather, when Jiang Ze ascended the throne, he was powerless.

The only chance to master Jiang Guo's soldiers and horses is when he goes to Jiang Guo.However, based on his understanding of Jiang Ze, he will definitely go to the imperial conquest.

Jiang Su smiled.

He gently put down the teacup and stood up.But at this moment everything is silent, even this extremely slight sound is like throwing a big stone into the calm lake, splashing countless water splashes with a plop.

Everyone subconsciously focused their anxious eyes on him.

Jiang Su is 22 years old.

Compared with Jiang Ze, who has not yet fully grown up, he is already a real adult.He is taller and taller than Jiang Feng, and his face is more handsome than Jiang Feng.He was once the most outstanding monarch of the Jiang Kingdom in the eyes of countless gentry officials, and he was also a person with great talent who could rule the world in the eyes of a few people.

It is not as good as it is to be famous all over the world.

Jiang Su smiled.

He is always humble and gentle, a gentleman is like the wind.Even if rumors of losing the throne changed his mind drastically, he still maintained the reserved pride of belonging to the royal family.

Jiang Su looked around, his eyes were calm and inclusive as always.He said lightly: "I don't want to care whether this is a conclusive evidence or an intentional crime. After all, there are twists and turns, and everyone knows it well. I advise everyone, if you really do something wrong in private, if you don't turn yourself in, His Majesty will give you a lighter punishment." .”

The hall was dead silent.

Jiang Su finished what he wanted to say: "That's all for Su Yan, everyone do what you want." After saying that, Shi Shiran tidied up his clothes, turned and left, regardless of the people around him with distorted faces.

He naturally went to see Jiang Ze.

In the past six months, he has been in close contact with the underworld, no matter how cautious he is, he will leave something that proves that he has a heart of disobedience.But after it was verified that both belonged to Ling and Shao's mansion, all the things related to him in the two mansions disappeared mysteriously.

Who took those things?

The answer is already obvious.

Jiang Su walked out of the hall.

The sky is blue, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and the spring breeze is better than a lover's hand. It is a rare and beautiful spring day.

Jiang Su went to the palace without haste.

On the way, he suddenly remembered the many games he had played with Jiang Ze before.

Compared with his modesty and rigor, Jiang Ze has always done whatever he wants.Although each has its own winners and losers, sometimes, Jiang Ze's seemingly meaningless chess pieces will suddenly become the most critical existence in a certain game.And Jiang Su was often defeated suddenly because of these unexpected traps.
