Zhu Di smiled slightly in the face of the ministers' questioning, "You ministers are jealous and hateful, and I am very relieved, and the case of the King of Chu is also counted for a reason." I want to ask you, is this country too low? In other words, I treat Zhongqing too harshly, so that the big guy can't make a living, if that's the case, I should be guilty! ”

Although Zhu Di said that he would not add a penny to the officials, but if the officials really live too hard, it may not be negotiable......

His Majesty the Emperor put on a welcoming posture to bargain.

As if to say that you should hurry up and make a request, as long as it is reasonable, I will agree, don't worry, I am very generous.

Zhu Di is treacherous, but the courtiers are not stupid, if they take the benefits of the emperor, they will do things for the emperor, no need to ask, the king of Chu will not die.

If you think about it carefully, I am afraid that there is an even more terrible result, that is, the money was not obtained, but the king of Chu was let go in vain.

The ministers couldn't help but look at Liu Chun.

That's right, this is the guy!

As long as he is there, anything can happen, and the devil knows what hurtful things he and Zhu Di will do.

Therefore, in the face of the bait thrown by Zhu Di, you must not swallow it.

The first person to stand up was actually Yang Shiqi, that's right, it was the silent cabinet chief.

Originally, he didn't open his mouth at the Golden Palace court meeting, after all, the cabinet is the nature of a secretary, and it is only suitable for a small meeting with the Son of Heaven, and at the court meeting, it is a matter of the Son of Heaven and the Six Ministries and Nine Qings.

However, Yang Shiqi is still renting a house now, and Zhu Zhen, the king of Chu, is tantamount to calculating all the officials. If you agree to let go of King Chu, does it mean that you are not innocent?

Yang Shiqi was afraid that Jinyiwei would make another move, after all, the cabinet has seven stars, and one has already fallen, who knows what will happen next.

To be on the safe side, don't be fooled.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there is a reason for what Your Majesty said, and this reason is just an official. But the matter of Zhu Zhen, the king of Chu, is not so simple. ”

"Oh? What do you think? Zhu Di asked with a straight face.

Yang Shiqi straightened his back, and the next few words are likely to be the key to this case, so he must be careful.

"Your Majesty, if it's just borrowing money for profit, the minister has nothing to say. However, Zhu Zhen used money as a means to encircle hundreds of officials, cultivate power, influence the situation, and make waves...... This is no longer just profit-making, he is seeking power! As a vassal king, he can't fulfill his duties and benefit one party, but he is ambitious and controls hundreds of officials, what is he going to do? Is there a conspiracy? The minister thinks that there are all kinds of serious sins in the world, and the unforgivable sin is rebellion. ”

"Now that the Son of Heaven is in the court, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is thriving. If you can't prevent the slightest and eradicate the small as soon as possible, the minister is afraid that there will be endless disasters, please Your Majesty to see! ”

After Yang Shiqi finished speaking, Hu Guang followed closely and stood up.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Master Yang said is inappropriate, Zhu Zhen has vicious intentions and sinister methods, if it weren't for the Son of Heaven's discernment, almost everyone would have been deceived by him, such a scheming treacherous person must have the intention of usurping the throne and seizing power, otherwise he will keep to himself, why bother to win over officials?"

These two pavilion elders really have a lot of weight when they speak.

And the officials also understood, and secretly gave the two of them a thumbs up, Yang Shiqi's first sentence excluded the behavior of profit-making loans, that is, the things that officials did in order to solve temporary difficulties were not included in the discussion of this case.

What really hurts is the rebellion of the king of Chu!

is worthy of being a person who can be the first assistant, that is, he is smart!

In an instant, all the officials seemed to have received a signal, and they spoke one after another.

In the final analysis, Zhu Zhen, the king of Chu, is heinous and must be killed immediately, confiscate the property of the king of Chu, abolish the feudal state, and thoroughly investigate without mercy.

Some people even cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, the ministers know that the King of Chu is His Majesty's sibling, but the law of the country is more important than family affection, if Your Majesty connives, I am afraid that there will be countless ambitious people, vying to follow suit, and the Ming Dynasty will never have peace!" The ministers implore Your Majesty to destroy their relatives with righteousness, and the strong man will break his wrist, if the king of Chu does not die, the ministers are willing to die on the Golden Palace! ”

……

Liu Chun has been watching coldly, he can only give a thumbs up to the performance of hundreds of officials, and I don't know that I think Zhu Zhen slept with your mother-in-law, where did you get such a big hatred?

However, Liu Chun still minds his unjustified disaster.

Just looking for a big tongue to be Zhu Zhen's subordinate, damn it!

What's wrong with the people of the old Zhu family, will I care?

Liu Chun lowered his eyelids and didn't speak, all the officials said that Zhu Zhen should be killed, and Zhu Di had no other way at this moment.

"What the Qing said is indeed a high-minded argument for the country, and the King of Chu has sinister intentions, so he should be severely punished!" When Zhu Di said this, he glanced at Liu Chun, who was bowing his head.

"Liu Qing, this case will be handed over to you, and there are three law divisions, convict immediately!"

After speaking, Zhu Di flicked his sleeves and announced the dispersal of the dynasty.

The officials were overjoyed, although they didn't do anything to Zhu Di, but they killed a king of Chu, and they were also worth being happy, going home to drink, and borrowing money to celebrate.

But before we celebrate, there's something to say.

The three officials of the Three Law Divisions, in addition to Sun Huan, Yang Jing and Yao Guangxiao, these two adults must uphold justice, no matter what, Zhu Zhen must be allowed to die!

Liu Chun invited the three adults to his brocade guard yamen.

"Now that Your Majesty has issued an edict, shouldn't you call the King of Chu here, and we will convict us as soon as possible?"

The old thief squinted his eyes, "Lord Liu, you are the host, and we will listen to Lord Liu." ”

Liu Chun gave him a blank look, this thief is bald, and he has a bad stomach, he wants to put the responsibility on himself. That being the case, there is nothing to hesitate about.

"Come on, go and bring Zhu Zhen!"

Jinyiwei received the order and soon went to the prison of the Zongren Academy.

As a vassal king, Zhu Zhen naturally will not be the same as ordinary prisoners, where he lives, where is the prison, there is a complete courtyard, not to mention, there is actually a small garden. There are five rooms inside, and you can cook your own food.

It's just that Zhu Zhen is not in the mood at all, he doesn't think about tea and dinner now, and his face is sad.

He is also too unlucky, for so many years, he has been cautious and has not made mistakes.

Dad was in power, and he made meritorious contributions and was commended.

When he arrived at Zhu Yunwen, he quietly avoided the difficulty of cutting the domain.

When Zhu Di succeeded to the throne, although he was not included in the Zongren Academy, everyone knew that Zhu Yunwen advocated cutting the domain, in order to show that he was different from Zhu Yunwen, the Yongle Dynasty treated the vassal king quite leniently, at least on the surface, Zhu Di went to the Zongren Yuan several times and invited his younger brothers to drink and hunt.

Zhu Zhen also got the care of his brother, and he couldn't help but make Zhu Zhen greedy, he wanted to squeeze into the Zongren Academy, he wanted to get rich!

That's right, the vassal kings of the Zongrenin are living a good life now, although they have lost their fiefs and soldiers, but they have obtained some shares in the Royal Bank.

In addition, like any securities, sugar making, shipping, these feudal kings have intervened, and they have made a lot of money one by one.

Even the most honest Zhou King Zhu Hu actually bought a large piece of land under Qixia Temple to raise dolphins!

I have to say that Zhu Hu and Li Jinglong are both shrouded in a halo of luck.

In recent years, the price of grain in the capital has risen, and the price of meat is also the same every day, and the big fat pigs in the circle are simply living ingots. The other vassal kings looked greedy, but they couldn't pull their faces.

Zhu Hu has no taboos, and he openly declares that the biggest disease in the world is hunger and poverty...... The common people are well fed and clothed, their bodies are strong, and they naturally prolong their lives.

So for this great goal, he did not hesitate to join the ranks of dolphin farming.

can say that making money is so fresh and refined, Zhu Hu's face is at least successful in cultivation.

Zhu Zhen is envious, jealous and hateful of this fifth brother, obviously I am smarter than him, and I am better at reading than him, and I can also fight, and those Tusi barbarians have been beaten by me.

I have such a big ability, why did I make a mistake?

God, why don't you help me?

……

"Zhu Zhen, you have won over hundreds of officials and plotted against you, and now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?"

"Ahh

Zhu Zhen's face turned pale with fright, and he looked up at Liu Chun, who was sitting in the middle, and similarly, there were three hall officials.

"I, I have no ill intentions! I am the king of the Ming Dynasty, please try me. As for the Prince, I want to see His Royal Highness, I want to see His Majesty! ”

Zhu Zhen pulled his neck and shouted, and Liu Chun slapped the shocked wood fiercely.

"Vassal King? If the vassal king commits a crime, the crime will be added to the crime! Liu Chun snorted coldly: "Zhu Zhen, so far, this official will not hide it from you, like you, the means are vicious, and the corrupt officials are simply mad, and heaven and earth do not tolerate it!" At today's court meeting, all officials are killed! You are now a thousand people, and you are scolded by thousands of people, you had better confess as soon as possible, otherwise, even if there is no confession, this official will also punish you for capital crimes! ”

Zhu Zhen gasped, his brows furrowed, how could this be?

He thought that at most it was bribing officials and misbehaving.

In the end, he abolished his prince and lived in Fengyang. But in any case, he couldn't imagine that he was worried about his life, which made Zhu Zhen angry and frightened at the same time.

"Lord Liu, my lords, I have been wronged! I, what kind of co-op am I? There are many people who run schools in private, win over forces, and win over people's hearts. Compared to them, this king is just a small thing, not worth mentioning! I want to see the imperial brother, I want to make it clear to His Majesty! I, I still have their roster! ”

Zhu Zhen was in a hurry and said everything, this is his biggest hole card.

Liu Chun didn't expect that he would ask such a result.

"Zhu Zhen, do you know that if you are honest and bullying, you will lose your head!"

Zhu Zhen nodded vigorously, "Of course I know, but they let me die, and I can't let them have a good time!" My father was strict with officials, and he was most taboo about hundreds of officials forming parties for personal gain. Any in-laws, fellow villagers, and fellow yamen will be noticed. Therefore, some people secretly colluded in the name of the academy. In recent years, many businessmen have donated money to the academy, and they have colluded with each other to integrate government and business! If you want to say that I am rebelling, aren't they going to take away the Ming Dynasty? ”

Zhu Zhen is one of the more powerful sons of Lao Zhu.

He kept talking, saying that the three officials of the three law divisions looked at each other, is this the legendary counter-killing? Sun Huan doesn't care, he is a small official, he doesn't care about this, as long as he can make the courtiers lose face, he is optimistic.

Yang Jing is a very good official with Liu Chun, but he also has to take care of the faces of hundreds of officials, so he hesitated: "Lord Liu, Zhu Zhen is climbing, according to him, isn't it that all the academies in the world will be banned?" ”

Dao Yan said: "Lord Yang's words are not right, other academies can ban it, can even Jimingshan Academy ban it?" Isn't that ridiculous? ”

Liu Chun snorted, "Master Daoyan, whether it's ridiculous or not, I'll go and ask for a decree now." Before leaving, he also said to Zhu Zhen: "You'd better think carefully about whether the roster of the academy is still there, after all, the bully is going to kill the head!" ”

Zhu Zhen comprehended and said proudly: "Don't worry, Lord Liu, if I have a belly, I'm waiting to tell the imperial brother!" ”
