Chapter 1326: True and False Marriage Letters

Cheng Wujie made such a fuss, and immediately turned everyone's attention from the shock that Hua Shu brought to them, to the fact that she was going to marry and entered the palace as a concubine to humiliate the first emperor. Hua Shu glanced at Cheng Wujie and said coldly, "You really deserve to die." ”

Cheng Wujie......

Ministers......

Emperor Xining......

Hua Shu turned to face Emperor Xining, "Twenty-six years ago, the first emperor toured the south, and Cheng Wujie accompanied him. Teochew officials searched for the beautiful people in Teochew and wanted to offer beauty to the first emperor. Although the concubine had already married the Yang family, she was chosen by them because of her appearance. Zhou Sheng, who was the magistrate of Pingxi County, Chaozhou at the time, came to my door and forced my parents to repent of their marriage and sacrifice their daughter. Although my father was a servant, he also knew the courtesy, righteousness and shame, and refused to obey him. ”

Everyone nodded. Twenty-six years ago, Hua Shu was in the year of cardamom, and it was indeed possible to be selected by local officials for her beauty.

"Twenty-six years ago, what was Cheng Wujie's official position?" The military department Shangshu asked Jing Zheng beside him in a low voice.

Jing Zheng snorted, "Twenty-seven years ago, he only won the top prize, what kind of official position do you say he is!" ”

An Guogong pulled Chen Mo's sleeve, "Don't pay attention to him, this old thing only hit the list back then." ”

Lu Zhengqi added, "Editing, when the first emperor toured the south, Lord Cheng was a servant. ”

"I see." Chen Mo nodded. When the emperor toured inside and outside the capital, the Hanlin Yuan should send people to the emperor's entourage to record the emperor's patrol so that the trip could be recorded in the history books.

Hua Shu turned her head to look at Cheng Wujie who was kneeling on the ground, "Zhou Sheng can't, inform Chaozhou Thorn Shi Gaohuai about this." Gao Huai and Cheng Wujie set up a poisoning plan, brutally killed dozens of members of the Yang family, framed the Hua family, and instructed people to falsely accuse my father of being greedy for ink, and put my father in Pingxi Prison......"

Cheng Wujie was anxious, "Everything must pay attention to evidence, what is the intention of the concubine Niangniang to wrongfully accuse the officials?" ”

Hua Shu asked rhetorically, "When Lord Cheng wronged the concubine in vain, did the concubine ever cut off Lord Cheng's words?" ”

An Guogong said, "That's it!" What is Lord Cheng anxious about, can't you listen to what the concubine has said? ”

Cheng Wujie......

The third master glanced at An Guogong, and An Guogong immediately hid behind Lu Zhengqi honestly, and Lu Zhengqi said under pressure, "Concubine Niangniang, you go on." ”

Hua Shu bowed her head and continued, "After my father was imprisoned, Zhou Sheng and others came to the door again to threaten my mother with my father's life and my brother's future. As a concubine to save her father and brother, she had to follow Zhou Sheng out of the Hua family and enter the imperial palace to accompany the king. ”

"The concubines accompanied them for a year, and they were fortunate to be named Xiuyi, so they were willing to let their father out of prison. My father died after two years of illness, and my mother followed my father half a year later. The family who was married to his brother saw the decline of the Hua family and regretted not marrying. There is only one brother left in the Hua family, and he is struggling to support ......" Hua Shu recalled the suffering of the year, and the hatred in her voice was incomprehensible, "My Hua family is ruined, but Cheng Wujie, Gao Huai, and Zhou Sheng have been added to the rank of knight because of their meritorious service!" ”

Emperor Xining in the palace and the ministers of His Royal Highness were silent or did not dare to speak. The ministers recalled the past, Zhou Sheng and they didn't know, but Gao Huai was indeed promoted to pacify more than 20 years ago, and Cheng Wujie was also appreciated after Emperor Jianlong's southern tour, and he was on the rise.

Cheng Wujie is kneeling on the ground, Hua Shu is saying that what can be done if the sky is broken? Zhou Sheng and Gao Huai are dead, and she has no evidence to prove that he Cheng Wujie has anything to do with this matter, so what can she do!

Hua Shu took a deep breath before continuing, "After my brother escaped from the control of Zhou Sheng and others, he went to Beijing alone to report the funeral, and the concubine learned that her parents had died, so she dared to tell the truth to Emperor Xian. Although the first emperor was furious, he had to suppress the matter. ”

Cheng Wujie didn't believe it, and Emperor Xining asked, "What year was that?" ”

Hua Shu replied, "At that time, King Sheng had just turned two years old. ”

The third brother is now twenty-two years old, which was twenty years ago. He used to think it was strange that although his father favored the noble concubine, he placed her in the remote Yanhua Palace, and only sealed low-level concubines such as Xiuyi and Beauty. Now it seems that it should be because of this matter to anger the concubine.

Although his father was angry with the concubine, he promoted Cheng Wujie all the way to the prime minister. Emperor Xining pursed his lips, what his father was thinking in his heart, he knew very well, but he couldn't declare it.

From this point of view, Hua Shu does have some ...... Pitiful.

When King Sheng was twenty years old, Cheng Wujie actually used a marriage letter to blackmail King Sheng. King Sheng sent the marriage letter to the palace and asked about the concubine's old affairs. The concubine didn't dare to tell the truth, so she had to hand over the marriage letter to the first emperor, but the first emperor still suppressed the matter. ”

"Huh-" In the hall, I don't know which minister sighed, representing everyone's state of mind at this time. Regardless of whether the first emperor was right or wrong to do this, the first emperor didn't want to mention it, but Cheng Wujie took it to the main hall after his death.

If the first emperor had a spirit, he would definitely jump out of the imperial mausoleum at this time and come over and strangle him with his own hands.

After this sigh, Hua Shu said again, "The marriage letter that Lord Cheng handed over to King Sheng back then is not a fake, and the marriage letter he presented to the saint today is also genuine. The marriage letter of the Hua family was taken away by Zhou Sheng, and the marriage letter disappeared after the Yang family was intercepted and killed. Dare to ask Master Cheng, how did these two marriage documents fall into your hands? ”

"The concubine Niangniang can't be believed, the marriage letter handed over to King Sheng by the lower official the year before last was forged by the lower official!" Cheng Wujie is chiseled.

The third master spoke, "Lord Cheng is saying that this king can't even tell the truth from the fake?" ”

You didn't know it in the first place! Cheng Wujie tightened his mouth and didn't dare to speak.

Hua Shu opened the bag and took out the marriage book and presented it to Emperor Xining, "This marriage book was made back then, and there are fingerprints on the concubine's body on it, whether it is true or false, please distinguish between the saint and the adults." ”

The necks of the ministers were raised by an inch, staring at the marriage book on the jade case. Emperor Xining couldn't tell if it was true or false for a moment, so he said, "He Qing, Lu Qing, Jing Qing, come forward and take a look." ”

He Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Lu Zhengqi, the elder of the pavilion, were both from the top of the list, and they were the most learned among the ministers. After the three of them stepped forward to take a look, you look at me and I look at you, and pushed Jing Zheng to speak.

Jing Zheng pulled the sleeves of his shirt that were torn off by An Guogong, barely losing his honor in front of the palace, "Long live Hui, although the ministers don't know whether it's true or not, but the handwriting on these two marriage letters is indeed from the same person, and the handprints are the same." If you want to judge the number of years of the marriage book, please long live Xuan Gu Yuesong into the palace. ”

Gu Yuesong is a famous calligrapher and painter of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who likes to collect calligraphy and paintings of the sages and is good at distinguishing the authenticity from the fake. Emperor Xining didn't want more people to know about this matter, so he said, "Since these two marriage documents are from the same person, I know that what Cheng Qing said is false." ”

Cheng Wujie knelt and climbed two steps, "Long live, Weichen's words are true!" Perhaps, maybe the marriage letter presented by the noble concubine to the first emperor was not the one that Weichen handed over to King Sheng. Yes, this marriage book is not another marriage book! ”

Emperor Xining frowned, Hua Shu sneered, and Dexi bowed his head. Of course, Dexi would not open his mouth to tell everyone that the marriage letter presented by the noble concubine was stolen by him from the Gaohuai Mansion and handed over to the first emperor.

It's just that when did the first emperor hand over this marriage letter to the noble concubine? Dexi thought about it for a long time, but still had no clue.

"The concubine also has a piece of physical evidence, which can prove the words of the concubine, and every word is true." Hua Shu knelt on the ground and raised her hands above her head.
