night of april [-]

Fu Nai and the others withdrew from the Liangzhuang courtyard, and the guards who followed the master just now were still smiling.

"Pay attention to the door," Fu Naiqiang tensed his expression, "You are not allowed to reveal anything about tonight's affairs, and anyone who dares to violate it will be severely punished!"

"Yes," everyone bowed their heads in command.

Inside the door, Su Wei bulged his cheeks, huddled in the couch, and looked out the window.When he left the door just now, who laughed and who didn't, who made a sound and who didn't, he wrote it all down in his little notebook, and he will settle accounts with you later.

"Okay," the fourth elder brother changed into his pajamas and sat on the couch, pulled his grandpa Su over with a funny face, took off his white socks, and comforted him, "Not many people saw it at all. Dare to really laugh at you? Was the fall just now heavy? Did you twist your foot?"

"No, no," Su Wei kicked his legs impatiently, and then argued aggrievedly, "Who told them to drop the nails into the coffin at that time? The old people say that being hit by a cat is easy to scam the corpse." of!"

"Yes, yes, it's because of their clumsy hands," the fourth elder brother agreed incessantly, then held down someone's dishonest foot, rolled up his trouser legs to check his knees, "this black light is blind, the master said that I won't let you follow. You Look, there are still bruises on the legs, right?"

"It's just that the stone was thrown twice, but it didn't hurt." Su Wei turned around and pulled back his leg. It's better to forget the embarrassing scene of being frightened by a cat in front of everyone just now, "By the way How could the commander of the Yuqing Palace's guards be killed so silently? Tuo Heqi buried him in such a muddle, didn't he want to pursue the murderer?"

"I'm afraid it's not that I don't want to," the fourth elder brother leaned slowly towards the cushion, "I don't dare. Wei Min was picked up by Tuo Heqi. Although his family background is not prominent, it has a deep foundation. He can be executed so casually." If it doesn't cause a little disturbance, besides Huang Ama, he is the second elder brother."

Su Wei blinked, thought for a while and then said, "The prince won't cut off his arm for no reason, is he Long Live Lord? Did the emperor find out about the prince's instigating rumors among the people?"

"It's not like Huang Ama's style." The fourth elder brother pursed his lips and said, "Even if it is to kill chickens and monkeys, Huang Ama can make an order publicly and list other crimes. It is better to do it silently like this. Afraid of attracting attention, it was probably ordered by the second brother. I just don't know what Tuo Heqi did in private to make the second brother so angry..."

Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion

Delin was dressed in black and came late at night.

Tuo Heqi cupped his hands at De Linlue, pursed the corners of his lips and said, "The emperor has just returned to Luan, Beijing is busy with affairs, and I haven't had a chance to congratulate Delin's guard for his promotion."

"Your Majesty, you are welcome," De Lin said with a haughty attitude. He only bowed his head slightly and continued, "I don't think you need to say much about why you came here tonight. Your Excellency knows it well. Your Highness has an order, and your actions in Jiangnan should be done immediately. Stop, all the people sent out will be withdrawn, His Highness will secretly order people to pay off the remnants of the rebellious party, and you are not allowed to intervene any more!"

"A bastard, what a grandeur." Tuo Heqi's complexion changed, "I have served His Highness the Crown Prince for many years, how dare you, a little guard commander, be so rampant in front of this old man?"

"Everything passed down by your subordinates is His Highness's oral instructions," De Lin put one hand behind his back, his expression unchanged, "Does Master Tuo Heqi want to rely on the old and sell the old, and treat His Highness as nothing?"

Tuo Heqi laughed coldly when he heard the words, "His Royal Highness has been guarded by the emperor for a long time, and he is bound to be deceived by others. What kind of action, disorderly party, I don't know what His Highness is referring to, let alone how to stop the withdrawal. It seems that His Highness is driving south tour Once, after hearing some false rumors, I asked the guards to tell His Highness not to hurt the hearts of our veterans because of some ambiguous news—"

"You!" De Lin's eyes widened angrily, and he clasped his hands tightly for a while, before slowly exhaling, "Your Highness worked so hard for the impeachment of several adults, is this how you repay His Highness?"

Tuo Heqi turned around and looked at De Lin squarely, "I have been serving Your Highness for so many years, and my loyalty can be learned from the sun and the moon. Now, the power of the princes is growing, the health of the Holy One is deteriorating, and His Highness is locked in the deep palace, and it is difficult to do anything. But we can no longer just sit back and watch Suo Xiang as His Highness's wealth that has been accumulated for many years, being eaten away bit by bit. Such a hard plan is all for His Highness's sake, if His Highness can't be enthroned as the Great Treasure, we will die without regret!"

Delin pursed his lips, remained silent for a while, and finally walked away.

April [-]th, Baye Mansion

When He Zhuo stepped into the study, Brother Ba was staring at the stack of single volumes on the table in a daze.

"Greetings to Lord Baylor from the humble position," He Zhuo bowed to the eighth elder brother.

"Mr. is here," Eighth Brother regained his composure, slightly bent his lips, "Get up quickly, I have something to tell Mr. here."

"Thank you, Lord Baylor," He Zhuo got up, walked to Brother Ba, looked at the booklet on the table and said, "This is—"

"This is the evidence that Prime Minister Suo'etu formed a private party with many ministers in the court." Eighth Prince opened a blue book, which contained a list of bribes between Suo'etu and many courtiers. One of the servants who arrested Shao Gan, the left servant, fled into the Fourth Brother's residence, and brought out a bunch of ambiguous news. The Prime Minister took the opportunity to find out the involvement of many officials from the Six Ministries and Suo'etu, but it was a pity that Prime Minister Suo had already obeyed the law. Ama tried her best to protect the second brother, but the evidence fell into the hands of the eldest brother and became a piece of paper."

He Zhuo frowned slightly, and the eighth elder brother pursed his lips and continued, "Now, after several twists and turns, Mingxiang's painstaking efforts are finally in my hands..."

"Congratulations to Lord Belle," He Zhuo pondered for a moment, then leaned over and cupped his hands and said, "It is also His Royal Highness who is too reckless in his eagerness for success. The Jiangnan incident is about treason, and once the emperor finds out, he will definitely not let it go lightly. Lord Belle will The time is right for evidence of party formation to be presented."

"It's up to people to make plans, and it's up to God to make things happen," Brother Ba slowly exhaled, turning his head to look at He Zhuo and saying, "It's thanks to Mr.'s persuasion and teaching that Yinhu can wait until today. No matter what the result is, Yinhu will always remember the grace of Mr.'s teaching." .”

"I don't dare to be humble," He Zhuo hurriedly saluted and refused. After being supported by the eighth elder brother, he pursed the corners of his lips and said, "I want to see you today because I actually want to ask Lord Baylor for help."

"Oh?" Brother Eight raised his brows lightly, "Is there anything that can embarrass you? You just say it's okay, sir."

"Yes," He Zhuo lowered his head, "I don't know if Lord Belle has heard that recently the emperor sent a memorial to the Ministry of Punishment for trial by the emperor's general, Zuodu Yushi Zhao Shenqiao. This memorial was compiled by the Imperial Academy." Xiu Dai Mingshi privately engraved anthologies, and his words are crazy."

"This..." Eighth Prince thought for a moment, "I have indeed heard a thing or two. Dai Mingshi is also from a noble family, and his family has a long history. I am afraid that he made some arrogant words when he was young."

"Indeed," He Zhuo nodded, "Humble job and Dai Mingshi are old acquaintances. When he was young, he was famous for his literature, his behavior was unruly, and he had the ambition to write history. However, he has calmed down now, and he came to work in Beijing years ago. What was said back then has become a joke. I don’t know why, but it was brought up by the Metropolitan Procuratorate.”

"Don't worry, sir," the eighth elder brother smiled slightly, "The Metropolitan Procuratorate monitors audio-visuals all day long, and has played a lot on this kind of cultural prohibition, but Huang Ama has lightly let it go. After all, there is a tragedy in the history of Ming Dynasty Before, Huang Ama didn't want to alienate the hearts of literati any more, so I'm sure I won't take heavy responsibility for such a trivial matter."

"Beizhi originally thought so too," He Zhuo frowned slightly, "It's just that the words of the third prince Zhu are popular among the people nowadays, and Dai Mingshi's Nanshan Collection has recorded many things from the Ming Dynasty. After inquiring privately, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs is I plan to make a big fuss about this, and if this happens, I'm afraid the humble position—"

"Qianming, the third prince Zhu..." Eighth elder brother's heart tightened suddenly, he was in a daze for a moment and said, "Sir, do you have a printed copy of Nanshan Collection, bring it for me to have a look at."

April [-]

The Ministry of Criminal Justice presents Zhao Shenqiao's investigation results of the impeachment of Dai Mingshi, and it is found that Dai Mingshi's "Nanshan Jiouchao" is contradictory.

Among them, the title of the Three Kings of Nanming is recorded in the article "Book of Yu Yusheng", and Nanming is compared with Shu Han and Southern Song Dynasty, and it is considered that it cannot be regarded as a pseudo-dynasty.

In another article "Book with Disciple Ni Sheng", it is mentioned that the beginning of the Qing Dynasty should be the first year of Kangxi, and the Shunzhi Dynasty cannot be orthodox.

What made Lord Kangxi discolored the most was that the "Nanshan Collection" vaguely recorded the death of the former Ming prince, although Dorgon was blamed for the crime.But Lord Kangxi executed the other two princes of Emperor Chongzhen in the same way, and he was furious.

However, the follow-up investigation of "Nanshan Collection" is not only on Dai Mingshi.

The year names and deeds of the three kings of Nanming recorded in "Nanshan Collection" were copied by Dai Mingshi from Fang Xiaobiao's "Jiwen of Yunnan and Guizhou".Fang Bao, another scholar of the Fang family, wrote a preface for "Nanshan Ji".

So far, the Fang family of Tongcheng, Anhui, a family with a long history of family history, has also been involved in this case of cultural prohibition.

April [-]th, Prince Yong's Mansion

Su Wei finished reading all the books he had read in his life in a few days.

The library in the main courtyard, the study of the fourth elder brother, and the bookshelves of the little masters in the backyard were all checked one by one.

Not only the "Nanshan Collection", but all books related to the former Ming Dynasty were singled out or burned or buried.

At this time, Su Wei can't care about the loss of future generations by burning books and burying scholars.It is really that the history of the Ming Dynasty case is too popular.Even though Su Wei failed to catch up, but from the story of the old man in the palace, he can probably imagine what a human tragedy that blood-stained miles looked like back then.

The history of the Ming Dynasty began in the 18th year of Shunzhi and was not closed until the second year of Kangxi. More than a thousand people were imprisoned and demoted, more than [-] people were executed, and [-] people were punished by Ling Chi alone.

It's a pity that at that time, the treacherous minister Obai was in charge of the government, and Lord Kangxi was unable to turn the tide. As a result, many years later, the aftermath still lingered and the civil servants were divorced.However, it also indirectly caused that after Emperor Kangxi came to power, the cultural ban was slightly relaxed, and Jiangnan students received a lot of preferential treatment.

However, no one can guarantee that the tragedy of the Ming History Case will never repeat itself.Right now, the investigation of the Nanshan case by the Ministry of Criminal Justice has caused the haze that has been immersed in the capital for many years to once again shroud the sky over the capital.

April [-]th, Baye Mansion

Qi Shiwu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, personally brought people to the residence of Ba Age.

A group of people waited to block the gate, and Qi Shiwu cupped his hands slightly to the eighth elder brother who came out, "My minister greets Lord Baylor. Today, I brought someone here. I just want to invite editor He to join the Criminal Department to cooperate with the investigation. I also invite Baylor to join the investigation." Forgive me."

The eighth elder brother sneered when he heard the words, and raised his chin to Qi Shiwudao, "Master Qi is in such a posture, I thought I made some terrible mistake. It seems that my gate in Baylor Mansion is not high enough. , whoever wants to block it can block it?"

"My minister is reckless, Lord Belle forgive me." Qi Shiwu winked at his subordinates, and everyone put away their sword-ridden postures, and all retreated outside the door, "The Holy One attaches great importance to the case of Dai Mingshi. The world is an old friend, and I have to check it out. I also ask Lord Belle to allow He Zhuxiu to go with me."

Babeile sneered when he heard the words, "Lord Qi moved Huang Ama out, so what if I don't approve? It's just that Benbeile doesn't know yet, will He Zhuo be able to get out of the gate of the Ministry of Punishment after he goes? "

Qi Shiwu lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved, "Master Belle is too worried. As long as Editor He has nothing to do with the Nanshan case, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will release him immediately."

"Master Belle," He Zhuo came out from the inner courtyard, and cupped his hands at the eighth elder brother, "Please rest assured, Lord Belle, I have always been cautious in my words and deeds, and I will never get involved with the Nanshan collection. Let alone because of my own His selfishness will hurt Lord Baylor's reputation."

"Sir, you are serious." Eighth elder brother looked at He Zhuo who had put on a cloth shirt, pursed the corners of his lips slightly, and said, "Sir, just go with Mr. Qi, I believe it will not be long before Yinhu will be able to pick him up personally." .”
