Chapter 170: The disaster cannot escape (2)

Zhao Guang, the Minister of Justice, reported Ding You, and the ministry entrusted the errand to Zheng Dunjin, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who was picked up and pulled up because of Sushun's recommendation. He heard the order and went into the hall and saluted: "My minister Zheng Dunjin, I'll pay a long time to see the emperor."

"You know all this big case in Beijing, right?"

"Yes, I have heard about it, but the details are not clear yet. Please take the people involved in the case to the hall for a few days. After I go down, I will bring the people involved in the case to the hall one by one. After the trial and question the Qing Dynasty, I will report to the emperor." Zheng Dunjin has already prepared a draft along the way. He met and asked for an order and said, "Your Majesty, I think that Lord Su is in charge of the Ministry of Justice and is the victim in this case. Should I take a evasion plan? I also ask the emperor to show me."

"Well," the emperor's anger was wiped out a little, and he pointed his hand at Sushun, who knelt side by side with him. "The court has laws and regulations, and the officials involved in the case are usually lawful. Sushun is also one of the victims in this case. As for whether he is guilty, you must report it to me after it is clear."

"Yes, I understand."

"Also, Huixiang and his family, in broad daylight, fought with the imperial officials at the crossings of pedestrians on the street, especially when Sushun had already explained to him that he was leaving the mansion this time, and he was still unwilling to give in." As he said that, the emperor became angry again, "The Ministry of Justice will deal with such a violent and perverse person! If Zhao Guang was protected by the original protection, I would not be able to let him go as easily as before. You should be careful."

"Yes. I have all recorded it." Zheng Dunjin said, "I should learn from Lord Zhao's original affairs, and be honest with my heart."

"That's it, go down."

After sending several people from the Ministry of Justice out, the emperor held his cheeks and thought: "Sushun."

"The slave is here."

"Does Huixiang know about Yun'er's identity?"

"This, I thought he didn't know. Even if the incident happened suddenly and Huixiang saw Yunzhuer's true face, he just thought it was the woman from someone else's house. He wouldn't have thought... it was the lord of the emperor's harem."

"You'd better ask the gods and Buddhas all over the sky to bless him. This matter is related to my name. Once it is passed down by word of mouth, it will be dirty and dirty for the common people. Soosh, even if it is me, I'm afraid it will be difficult to protect you."

Su Shun's mouth pain slightly relieved, and his brain returned to his usual agility. After hearing the emperor's words, he also changed his face from the heart: "Yes, I understand. Please rest assured, Master, even if I try my best to save my master's reputation for life!"

The emperor sneered silently, "It is best if you can understand. If this matter is spread, I may not say that even if I have always been soft-hearted, I will learn the method of Emperor Gaozong's punishment of Neqin."

Su Shun's sweat and heavy clothes! Neqin's death by Emperor Gaozong is an old story in the court. He likes to hear such anecdotes of his predecessors the most, so he has long been familiar with it.

This incident occurred in the 13th year of Qianlong's reign. During the Eastern Tribunal of Qianlong, the empress suddenly collapsed in Dezhou. Some people said that she committed suicide by jumping into the water. For a time, the rumors of the empress's virtues were not cultivated and the curtains were uneasy. At that time, there was a widely circulated rumor that the emperor had an affair with his brother Fu Heng and gave birth to a child, which was Fu Kang'an. The empress died of jumping into the water, which was also caused by jealousy.

Qianlong was so angry that two more things happened. One was that Zhou Xuejian, the governor of Jiangnan River, illegally shaved his head within 100 days (see the previous article for details). He was arrested in the capital. The Ministry of Justice discussed the crime and killed the marquis of the prison. Later, he discovered that he was also corrupt, accepted bribes, and favoritism and ill-fighting. He committed suicide and died.

The second is that the chieftain of Dajinchuan, Sharo, invaded the border, and Zhang Guangsi, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, failed to attack and reported to Beijing. Jian sent Ne Qin as the minister of management and led the nearby brigade to attack.

Who knew that Ne and Zhang were in disagreement, and they even went to the court with tens of thousands of military commanders, and were defeated by Sharo. Qianlong was furious and escorted Zhang Guangsi back to the capital. He was personally robbed in Yingtai. As for Ne, he even gave his ancestor Ebilong sword, and was brought by the eunuch, and immediately beheaded Ne in front of the army!

On the surface, Qianlong was so angry that he had a lot of trouble. In fact, it was just a negative impact caused by killing ministers to establish his authority and regaining the queen to commit suicide by jumping into the water. People rumored that the palace was unstable.

At this moment, when the emperor mentioned the old things, Su Shun was both brave. He guessed that the emperor had murderous intentions, but he didn't know which unlucky guy was to become the first ghost under the emperor's authority!

The emperor waved his hand tiredly, "You go down."

"emperor?"

"Go, go."

"Yes." Sushun stopped talking, touched his head again, took a few steps, turned around and left the hall.

He had injuries on his mouth and was inconvenient to speak. He even thought that he was one of the victims in the case and could not go to the Ministry of Justice to ask about the case, so as not to meet Huixiang. He roared and couldn't answer. He was sent back to his house and asked the doctor for a while before making a decision.

There is a doctor in his mansion, and he has no need to say much about the diagnosis and treatment. Huang Xi and Long Rulin did not expect such a big mistake today. Seeing that Lord Ju Ting was covered in blood and his lips were swollen, they were frightened, and they thought it was a blow to Huixiang and his family. After asking carefully, they realized that it was caused by the emperor's rage and kick.

After hearing his answer from the imperial prelude, Long Rulin expressed his worries, "Sir, you have to think of a countermeasure to this matter. It's okay today, I want to wait until tomorrow, and the matter will spread. What do those people know about the people who promoted the fight? But seeing such a thing happening in the Tian family, how can they not talk about it and make it well known to everyone? Then, it will be transmitted to the emperor's ears, how can it be?"

Su Shun pouted her lips and felt very troublesome to speak. It would be okay not to say it. "Yes, I'm also worried about this matter."

"It's better to ask Chen for guilt first." Huang Xi said, "I just want the emperor to be able to deal with it lightly because of the slightest efforts of the court over the years. Even if it's a blessing to the heavens."

"Yeah, um." Su Shun nodded, "You must ask for apologies. However, the emperor once told me that the ones below hate the most is that the people below are greedy. How can you pass the current level?"

"The emperor hates his subordinates to take advantage of tricks. The students think that as long as the holy disciple of the emperor is able to come to the emperor to express his faults, the emperor will not suddenly exert thunder without thinking about his old feelings." Long Rulin said, "If someone can ease his cheeks from the side, it will be more effective with half the effort. A small punishment may be inevitable, and if he is punished with severe punishment, he will definitely not."

Su Shun thought about it and felt that Long Rulin's words were the words of his confidant, but, what the emperor thought, who knows? Even if there is a relationship between Zai Quan and the emperor, wouldn't there be any relationship between Zai Quan and the emperor? Didn't he just kill him? For a moment, he hated Huixiang even more: Damn it, if it weren't for you, how could I have had the disaster today?

Thinking randomly, he couldn't let go of his hatred for Huixiang. He saw that it was still early and was about to send a sedan chair to the Ministry of Justice. His subordinates came to report: "Master, Lord Bao Peihengbao visited the mansion."

"Oh," Sushun gave up his thoughts, "Please, please."

He invited Baofeng to the hall, and the listener followed him presented a gift, "Last time I went to Zhejiang to do a job, and bought a few baskets of Jinhua ham on the way, and stored it in my mansion for many days. I knew that Lord Su liked to drink and drink, and he was even more fond of meat, so he was especially happy to serve..." He was deliberately stunned: "Oh no, it was Peiheng who took the liberty. Why are you eating this? Haha!"

Sushun knew that Bao Jing liked to joke, so he laughed a few times with him, and then he invited him to take a seat, "Brother Peiheng, why are you free today? Are you here to my humble residence?"

Bao Jing refused to turn the round and got to the point, "I will not hide it from Brother Yuting, in the twelfth lunar month of last year, Huixiang and I suffered a great loss in his pocket due to some confusion. I, Bao Jing, are not the kind-hearted gentleman who swallows the teeth. Such a big revenge, always wondering to take revenge on him. This time he caused such a big disaster, which happened to make me laugh on the shore! Today I took the liberty to come to my door, just to ask Brother Yuting to help me so that I can enter the prison of the Ministry of Justice and humiliate him!"

Su Shun and others frowned. Unexpectedly, Bao Jing's desire for revenge was so strong. Seeing the emperor getting angry and Huixiang was in trouble, he still refused to let go. Instead, he thought about it. He beat him up on the street for a ***, but he was afraid that Bao Jing would only be better than him, and not even as good as possible, right?

Thinking of this, Su Shun bowed: "If there is a place where Su can serve, he will have no choice."

"In fact, it's not just me who are implicated by Huixiang, such as Xizhen Chang and Shen Dongmu, all hate this culprit. Brother Su, your mansion is going to be very busy! Haha!"

Su Shun had nothing to say, so he could only smile bitterly, "I feel ashamed of being guilty of Yuting and causing others to suffer for no reason."

"Brother Yuting doesn't have to be so surprised. It's still possible to say that God has done evil, but people can't live. Huixiang's evil is full of evil, and it's also a retribution. It's nothing to do with others."

Several people were talking, and the subordinates replied again: "Master, Lord Zheng is here to visit the mansion."

When Baofeng saw that Sushun had a guest again, and Zheng Dunjin, who was in charge of the trial of the case, came to visit in person. He knew that the two of them would discuss business affairs and were not delayed, so he stood up and said goodbye.

After seeing Bao Jing off, Sushun ordered someone to invite Zheng Dunjin to the hall. Zheng Dunjin came in casual clothes and saluted: "Please pay tribute to the Lord."

"Brother Xiaoshan, please speak in the hall, come and serve tea!"

Zheng Dunjin thanked the Lord and sat down on the main seat in the hall. He first asked Sushun's injury how he was diagnosed and treated. Then he changed his subject and talked about the main matter: "Sir, this is the case of Huixiang. There are very big joints in it. I also want to ask the Lord to show you."

"Oh? What is it?"

The Huixiang case caused a sensation in the capital. The Jiucheng Military and Mass Office and Daxing County Office arrested Huixiang and his family. Then the Ministry of Justice brought the criminal from Daxing County Prison to the Ministry of Justice. Huixiang was a little scared. If it was said that it would be impossible for the Ministry of Justice to fight in the street, it would be no longer the turn of the Ministry of Justice. With the news blocked, he didn't know that the emperor's concubine was actually the emperor's concubine.

I only knew in prison that I was shocked by Feng Jia, which made the emperor Long Yan furious. Huixiang was shocked and wanted to ask someone to come to Jiangning City to find his father and rescue him in front of the emperor. However, I also heard that the emperor issued an order to take Ama Yesuo to the capital on the grounds of "there is no way to teach his children and be confused and disobedient." This time, not only did he suffer, but the family's disaster is probably not far away!

Huixiang was not an idiot after all. In panic, he thought of a countermeasure. As long as he was not held accountable for the crime of shock, he would hold accountable for the fight caused by debt collection, and there was a chance to recover the matter. Therefore, he made up his mind and came to the hall and said that he was just because Su Shun owed money. The two sides were in a disagreement and were furious, and then they added fists and feet. As for who was in the sedan chair, he said he was completely unaware of it.

These words are not false. I expected that in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, there would be no torture. As long as I could not admit it, I would not be easily convicted of being disrespectful. If I could reach this point, the next thing would be easy to solve.

Huixiang's plan cannot be wrong, but it is far from the idea that the officials of the Ministry of Justice have made! The emperor was so angry about this matter. First, the court fought with the royal family Yi in the street, which was severely injured by the official; second, he intentionally vented his anger for Ziyun; third, he also intentionally took this opportunity to punish Wen Duan, who was doing things wrong while in office through his in-laws, so he warned the officials of the Ministry of Justice for Zhao Guang's incident that year, so no one dared to be friendly with him. Such a plan was completely different from Huixiang's plan. In Beijing dialect, it was all "twisted"!

He brought Huixiang to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, and finally took care of the Rongzun of his third-class benefactor, and he did not give the emperor an order to take it away. He still had some etiquette and did not add torture instruments on his body. He did not need to kneel down and answer, "Huixiang, I'll ask you." Zheng Dunjin asked, "On the 26th of this month, you led thirty-two servants in the mansion to Sushun Mansion, and finally got into the street to recover the debt. Is it true?"

"It's the truth." Huixiang replied, "Because in early June, Sushun was unable to figure out the matter, so he borrowed 30,000 taels of silver from me. He had agreed to return it by early July. Who knew that I would go to his house to pursue it for many consecutive days. He always avoided meetings on the grounds of busy official duties. I was angry and sent someone to keep an eye on his side. Once he saw him return home, he immediately returned to me. Today, when he returned home, he saw it, and then I took people to the door of his house to recover the debt. Who knew that Sushun refused to admit his account at all, and I couldn't bear it, so I fought with him on the spot."

"Well, according to Sushun, this time he returned to the mansion, was to take the emperor's order and escort the concubine Yun who was a guest in his mansion back to the palace. But you didn't take it seriously, regardless of the presence of the master, the queen Feng Jia, and forced each other with force, right?"

"No." Huixiang said loudly, "I don't know that the master is riding in the sedan chair, otherwise, even if I give me the courage, I would not dare to disturb Feng Jia. In this section, please give me some masters in the hall a clear understanding."

"You don't have to be frightened." Sang Chunrong, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who sat down on Zheng Dunjin, said, "The main reason for the Ministry of Justice is to judge a case. It will never be easily punished for Sushun's own words. However, what Sushun said has another circumstance. It is the Liufu Dao in the palace. Do you know this person?"

Huixiang was stunned, "I... know Eunuch Lu, but I just didn't know Jing."

"Not right? Didn't you beat him hard today when you were in front of Sushun Mansion?"

A thought flashed through Huixiang's mind: Oh no, that handsome husband, can't he be Liu Fu? It's so bad now.
