Carrying the wrong sedan chair to marry the wrong wife

Inside the prison, the candlelight was weak, Lu Qingyi and her mother sat by the bed and ate the food brought by Shen Wenchang, while Shen Wenchang squatted beside the wooden pillar, looking inside with his chin resting on his hands.

"Well, it doesn't look very pretty, but it tastes really good." Madam Lu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief after eating.

Lu Qingyi also smiled and said: "Yes, I never imagined that taro can be eaten like this."

"Mother-in-law, Yiyi, if you like it, I can make it often in the future." Shen Wenchang was very happy, I never thought that she had a talent for cooking, and it was even more rare that both mother-in-law and Yiyi said it was delicious, so she couldn't help but feel a little smug.

"You did it?" Lu Qingyi was a little surprised.

Mrs. Lu also looked back at Shen Wenchang in surprise.

"Yes, I did it myself." Shen Wenchang was extremely proud.

After a moment of shock, Mrs. Lu nodded and said, "I have a heart."

Mrs. Lu's face softened, but her heart was still not at peace. It's really puzzling that the kid in front of her spoke so proudly of her own cooking.

Lu Qingyi looked at Shen Wenchang with a smile, not knowing that such a frizzy person could concentrate on cooking a meal.

Shen Wenchang was praised by Mrs. Lu for being considerate, and his joy was beyond words. He stood up and said, "Your mother-in-law is very polite. It is my duty to respect you."

Mrs. Lu cleared her throat when she heard the words, Shen Wenchang called her mother-in-law, she felt a little uncomfortable, but thinking about the two married in prison, calling her mother-in-law is also appropriate.

"When the grievances are cleared, you can invite your parents to come to my house for employment. After all, the prison is too shabby. I am such a precious daughter. I really don't want to wrong her. Your Shen family should definitely marry her."

Hearing this, Shen Wenchang nodded repeatedly and said: "Ah, ah, sure, sure, mother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely marry Yiyi into the house with a big sedan chair and noisiness."

Lu Qingyi heard her mother and Shen Wenchang talking about their future marriage, and she felt sweet in her heart, perhaps because the atmosphere of parting and parting was missing, Lu Qingyi's cheeks were blushing at this moment, and there was shame in her brows and eyes.

Mrs. Lu patted her daughter's hand, and then said: "After all, you are a couple in need. In the future, you should respect and love each other like today."

Hearing this, Lu Qingyi looked at Shen Wenchang, and Shen Wenchang also looked at Lu Qingyi. The eyes of the two were full of affection and joy, as if they could see the dawn soon.

"It's time for half a stick of incense!!!" The jailer's voice came to Dongtou.

Shen Wenchang glanced to the right, his eyes full of reluctance.

"Since the time is up, let's go back." Mrs. Lu said.

Lu Qingyi stood up and said, "Be careful when walking at night."

"Hey." Shen Wenchang saw the fourth uncle standing at the crossing with a lantern, knowing that he had to go, so he bowed to Madam Lu and said, "Mother-in-law, I will go."

"Yes." Madam Lu nodded.

Shen Wenchang glanced at Lu Qingyi, turned around after taking three steps, and left reluctantly.

"Don't come at night from now on, I feel very panicked when I come at night." The fourth uncle walked out with a lantern.

"Understood, old fourth uncle." Shen Wenchang agreed, left the prison, and returned to Zhu's house.

The next day, at five o'clock, before the sun had risen, the entire capital was silent, but many courtiers gathered at the gate of the palace. When the gate opened at noon, a group of Beijing officials hurried in braving the cold wind.

The Golden Luan Hall was brightly lit, and the courtiers entered for a moment before they heard the eunuch shout: "Your Majesty is here!!!"

All the ministers hurriedly lifted their robes and knelt down, and put their hands on the cold ground, they were trembling from the cold, but they didn't dare to withdraw their hands, and they didn't dare to hum.

"See Your Majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live."

"Everyone's family is safe." Emperor Tianshun said after sitting down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers stood up.

A eunuch closed the gate of the Golden Luan Hall, and fireplaces were set up on both sides of the hall.

"Xue Qing's family." Emperor Tianshun asked while reading the booklet, "How are the preparations for Chunwei?"

"Your Majesty, everything is ready. In ten days and a half months, people from all over the country will come to Beijing one after another. These are the test questions drawn up by the ministers. Please read them over." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials knelt down and raised the test questions to the overhead.

Seeing this, the little eunuch hurried down the dragon steps and took it with both hands and presented it to Emperor Tianshun.

Emperor Tianshun looked through and saw the end and said: "The last policy is a cliché, let's leave this one empty for now, I will come up with this policy in person."

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was taken aback when he heard the words, turned his head to look at Uncle Yang Guo, saw him standing motionless, and bowed his head to accept his orders.

"promise!!!"

"Is the food and grass for the frontiers ready?" Emperor Tianshun put down the Chunwei exam questions and looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War.

"Return to Your Majesty, everything is ready, and it can be transported to the front line early this morning." The Minister of the Ministry of War came out and knelt down.

"Well, the border is tight, food and grass are very important, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households must pay attention to it." Emperor Tianshun turned to look at the Minister of the Ministry of Households, "How much money is left in the treasury?"

"Your Majesty, there are more than eight million yuan left in the national treasury." The Minister of the Household Department came out and knelt down.

"This battle on the frontier has cost too much manpower, material and financial resources, and the treasury is a bit empty." After finishing speaking, Emperor Tianshun looked at the Ministry of Rites. "In the next few years, the Queen Mother's birthday will be the same as before. Let's keep things simple for the Queen Mother and I."

"promise."

"Huang Qing's family." Emperor Tianshun opened the memorial and remembered something, and looked at the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, "After the court disperses today, you send someone to welcome Lu Wenzheng, and when you arrive in the capital, you will first be detained in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and set a time for the three divisions to interrogate. "

As soon as this remark came out, the courtiers were all shocked. Didn't the court already order Lu Wenzheng to be executed earlier?

Emperor Tianshun looked down at the expressions of the courtiers. To avoid accidents, he asked the boss to leave the capital secretly. He must have rescued Lu Wenzheng and came to the capital by now.

"I obey the order." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment hurriedly accepted the order after being astonished.

Zhang Shoubei staggered, his expression changed. He thought that the matter had fallen into dust, but unexpectedly, His Majesty would retract the imperial edict. This is unheard of. Since ancient times, has any emperor retracted the imperial edict?

"Your Majesty." The Minister of Rites heard His Majesty mentioning Lu Wenzheng, and hurriedly came out and knelt down: "Your Majesty, regarding the case of "A Picture of Thousand Bamboos", I have a statement."

"Oh?" Emperor Tianshun put down the notebook, "Here comes the Qing family."

The Minister of Rites knelt in the center, folded his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have evidence to prove Master Lu's innocence."

"Evidence? What evidence is it? Submit it quickly."

"Your Majesty, the evidence is not in the hands of the minister. Please make an order to pass the Lord Lu's son Lu Qingzhe to the palace."

Emperor Tianshun asked in surprise, "Shouldn't Lu Qingzhe be in the Nantong Prison right now?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it's better for Lu Qingzhe to tell His Majesty the reason."

"Your Majesty, Lu Qingzhe absconded in fear of crime, and the crime is unforgivable, Your Majesty, such disloyal and unfilial people are not worthy of meeting Your Majesty." Zhang Shoubei hurriedly came out.

Emperor Tianshun heard the words and said: "Zhang Qing seems to want to copy and kill the whole family of the Lu family. I almost forgot that you were the one who reported on the Lu family. If the Lu family is really guilty, the Qing family will naturally have merit. My family slanders my colleagues for deceiving me, and the crime is the same as copying my family."

Zhang Shoubei panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly went to see Uncle Yang, but Uncle Guo didn't change his face and didn't give him the slightest look.

"Broadcast to Lu Qingzhe." Emperor Tianshun's voice was a little louder.

Hearing the words, the eunuchs hurriedly delivered orders, one by one, outside the Meridian Gate.

Holding the imperial decree in his arms, Lu Qingzhe hurriedly followed the little eunuch. At this moment, his hands and feet were cold, and the cold wind cut his cheeks like a blade.

When we arrived at the main hall, we waited for a while, only to hear a 'pass', and hurriedly bowed our heads and walked in.

In the main hall, civil and martial arts were lined up on both sides, and Lu Qingzhe walked to the center and knelt down quickly.

When Zhang Shoubei saw Lu Qingzhe, he was almost paralyzed on the ground, but then he thought about it, besides His Majesty who died, and General Qian who was far away in the frontier, he was the only one who knew about the matter of the Lu family. Even if Lu Qingzhe came here, he should not be able to produce evidence Come on, besides, there is no evidence for this matter. Thinking about it this way, Zhang Shoubei calmed down a lot.

"Cao Min kowtowed to His Majesty, begging His Majesty to avenge my father." Lu Qingzhe pressed his forehead tightly to the ground, as if the cold on the ground had already made him numb.

"If your father is really wronged, I will naturally decide for you." Emperor Tianshun looked at the thin figure below, and sighed softly, "What evidence do you have, you can present it now."

"Your Majesty, this is the imperial decree issued by the late Emperor to General Qian. There is a sentence on it. Your Majesty will know that your father has been wronged after reading it. In addition, this is a letter written by General Qian. Please read it together."

As soon as this remark came out, Zhang Shoubei looked at Lu Qingzhe next to him in astonishment, his eyes fixed on the imperial decree, and watched the eunuch take it away and deliver it to Emperor Tianshun.

"Qianzhu matches Lu Qing, the style of a gentleman through the ages, the sword is given to the general, and the arrogance soars to the sky." Emperor Tianshun opened the imperial decree of the first emperor, saw a sentence read out, and then carefully looked at the seal, it was indeed a jade seal, and Emperor Tianshun closed the imperial decree He patted hard on the imperial case, looked at Zhang Shoubei angrily, and unfolded General Qian's letter. In addition to telling Madam Qian to take the imperial decree, the letter also mentioned the process of the picture presented by the former emperor of the imperial study. After reading it, he was shocked. He almost killed a loyal minister by mistake.

"Zhang Qing's family, you are so courageous!!!" Emperor Tianshun threw down General Qian's letter.

Zhang Shoubei hurriedly climbed forward, picked it up with shaking hands, and after seeing it, he knew it, and grabbed Lu Qingzhe's shoulder crazily, "Aren't you supposed to be in prison, who told you to go to the border, who asked you Looking for General Qian, it is a death penalty for you to escape from prison without permission, do you know why you escaped from prison to find General."

"Come here, let me arrest him." Emperor Tianshun was so angry that he had a headache.

The eunuch stepped forward to restrain Zhang Shoubei, and Emperor Tianshun stood up.

"There is a war at the frontier, and our Da Zhou soldiers are fighting bloody battles on the front line, but you, instead of thinking of being loyal to the king and serving the country, instead practice such villainous tricks in the rear, slandering your colleagues, it is unfortunate for you and other officials in Da Zhou." Emperor Tianshun was furious.

The courtier fell to his knees.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials squinted at Uncle Yang Guo, and when he saw Uncle Guo shaking his head at him, he lowered his head. It seemed that Lu Wen couldn't handle it this time.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Zhang Shoubei wanted to explain, but he opened his mouth. He was at a loss for words. General Qian's letter clearly stated that he was present in the imperial study that day. He couldn't quibble in front of the facts, so he could only cry with his forehead on the ground, it's over, it's over.

"Investigate!" Emperor Tianshun paced back and forth, "This matter must be thoroughly investigated, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, I want you to take this unfaithful and unrighteous person to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and also confiscate Zhang's house and put him in prison. After Lu Wenzheng enters Beijing, I will ask you trial the case."

"The minister obeys the order."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En, thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Qingzhe kowtowed repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'm guilty, and I'm the only one to blame. Please let your family members go, your Majesty, they don't know anything." Zhang Shoubei climbed forward a few times and said.

"Presumptuous, whether the Zhang family is guilty or not, His Majesty will have his own conclusion after the trial, how can you allow you to cry in front of His Majesty?" Uncle Yang came out and reprimanded.

Emperor Tianshun narrowed his eyes when he heard the words.
