Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 47

[47. Chapter 46]

This is because the guard did not open the door, and replied to Zhu Minda: “Your Highness, the door seems to be locked.”

Zhu Minda said coldly: “Break open!

” “With a sound, the latch seemed to be cracked, and the two doors clearly opened a slit toward the inner gap, but then closed with a “bang”.

Juminda squinted his eyes slightly, and his face was very ugly. He said solemnly: “Bring the candle light.

” Seeing Zhu Nanxian’s figure silently leaning against the door.

He sneered, and immediately shouted: “Yulinwei!”

“Yes!”

Zhu Minda said, “Bumping the door!”

Yulinwei’s strength was comparable to that of a servant. The four of them slammed into it, and Zhu Nanxian was finally unable to resist.

The huge momentum made his center of gravity unbalanced, and while he fell forward, he turned over the table on the side, the makeup fell, the bronze mirror shattered on the ground, and his knee was just right on the broken mirror.

Zhu Nanxian couldn’t care less about the pain, looked at Su Jin, and saw that she had replaced the shackles at the moment when the door slammed open, and he was relieved.

Zhu Minda stepped over the threshold, and the first thing he saw was Zhu Nanxian’s bleeding knee. His eyes became more and more gloomy.

The back room was very messy, and there was a curtain in front of the couch, and I didn’t know what Shisan was doing in it.

Zhu Minda walked up to Su Jin and said coldly, “Su Jin?”

Su Jin said: “Go back to Your Highness, this is Wei Chen.”

Five years ago, Thirteen went crazy and made a riot in the Ministry of Officials because of him, and today, It was still for him!

It seems that this child must be removed.

Zhu Minda’s voice no longer had a trace of warmth: “Yulin Wei, take this person out and kill him with the guilt of the lord!”

It was not until Shen Shi that Liu Chaoming and the six ministers withdrew from the Fengtian Palace.

After the early dynasty, Emperor Jing Yuan ordered Qi Qing to stay behind to discuss the case of the Northern and Southern Shizi, but Liu Chaoming actually remonstrated that Qiu Ge Lao and Yan Ziyan would not die if they were guilty. These words not only touched the sage’s inverse scale, but also affected the six ministers and suffered the evil fire of Emperor Jing Yuan.

At the end, Emperor Jing Yuan said: “Liu Qing is young and full of energy, and you can’t see everything in the long run. Go back and think about yourself for a month. You don’t need to see me again.”

He signaled to stop his early morning in January.

After Qiqing withdrew, they went to Chitai in parallel. The head of the Minister of Rites, Luo Songtang, couldn’t hold back and complained to Liu Chaoming: “You said that you are like a stuffy gourd on weekdays, but you want to make your Majesty unhappy at this juncture. What does Your Majesty think? , don’t we feel like a mirror in our hearts? Since the beginning of this case, Qiu Ge’s head is no longer on his neck. Do you still want to pick it up for him and sew it up? The justice that the northern officials want to seek is more than this one. Imperial Examination? What they want is the Sacred Heart, Your Majesty is here to show them!”

After hearing this, Zeng Youliang, the official ministry, mocked: “Lord Luo’s words are different, who is Mrs. Liu? Censor, that is placed in the former court, it is the doctor of Censor, the head of the official, it is my duty to offend Yan Zhijian, and it is also my duty to be involved by him. Don’t you feel like a mirror in your heart, Lord Luo? The end of this case is Are you wronged or not, you don’t have a steel scale in your heart? Why do you look like a gourd without a mouth when you get to His Majesty?”

Gong Shangshu of the Ministry of War made a loud “bah”: “According to the old man, in the future, the seven ministers will face the saints, and we will be seven. Let’s unify the caliber first, so that one will not offend Your Majesty, and the other six will not have a good life.” After speaking, he glared at Shen Tuo again: “You said that you are a minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the censor of the left capital made a statement, and you followed suit. You are brothers in the yamen. Anyone can help, but you can’t. Don’t you make Your Majesty think that the two of you are putting together a block for his old man?”

Shen Tuo said lightly: “Oh, after that, the old man won’t say anything else, and he will learn from Lord Luo. Your Majesty asks Aiqing what you see, and let’s reply, Your Majesty’s Sacred Heart dictatorship is extremely wise, and our ministers are all over the place, and I dare not have any more. Rumors? Then what do the six departments want to do with the Supreme Court? They can all be withdrawn!”

Luo Songtang said displeased: “Hey, hey, what about Liu Yun, how can you get involved with me!”

Several ministers were arguing, and hurriedly advised: “Don’t make a fuss, don’t make a fuss, according to the old man, you are all right, and Master Liu is also right. He is young, we should take more care. But then again, Liu Yun, you have to listen to what the old man has to say. Your Majesty has never been an arbitrary master. When the old man has an idea in his heart, anyone who says more will be guilty of the following, that is, His Majesty takes his fancy. You, you will stop your morning court for a month, if you change to the old men, I am afraid that you will be dismissed and investigated immediately.”

He said for a while, and then looked at the faces of the few next to him, all of them were dark and unhappy. , then smiled and said, “It’s really not a big deal. If you want me to see, Master Gong is right. In the future, we will have seven sages, unified caliber, and this page will be turned over.” Then he stabbed it with his elbow. He stabbed Qian Shangshu, who was silent, “Old Qian, what do you think?”

Qian Zhihuan smiled and said, “As you wish, this old man is the one who manages the keys to the treasury. If you come up with an idea, the old man will just follow and fire the cannon.” As

soon as this statement came out, it was inevitable that there was a bit of “sweeping the snow in front of the door”.

The seven of them were talking on the stage, and Zhao Yan and several other ministers were waiting under the stage, not daring to come forward.

Dasui is not like the previous dynasty, the emperor is under the head, and there is a prime minister who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people. Emperor Jingyuan was the founding king of the country. The procuratorate is directly in his own hands.

These seven high-ranking officials are the closest to the imperial power (Note 2).

Seeing Zhao Yan anxiously waiting for him, Liu Chaoming bowed goodbye to the six ministers, and came to the stage and said, “What’s wrong?”

Zhao Yan lowered his head and hesitated for a while, then raised his eyes and stared at him and said, “I tell you, don’t worry, it was Su Jin that had an accident.”

Liu Chaoming was startled, and then walked to the Duchayuan without saying a word. go.

Zhao Yan took a few steps up, grabbed him and said, “Didn’t I tell you not to worry?” After a while, he pointed in the direction of the front of the palace: “It’s this one.”

Liu Chaoming frowned, “Why? What’s going on?”

Zhao Yan sighed heavily, and said, “You should blame me for this.” After speaking, how did Su Jin fall into the water, and how did he get to the front of the palace? When he said it, he said at the end: “I don’t know who is so powerful, but put someone in the court. Now, His Highness the Crown Prince sees that His Highness the Thirteenth has tossed in and out because of Su Jin, and I heard that he was injured. , I want to kill Su Jinzhang in a fit of rage. I came here to ask you how to deal with this matter. I have already ordered Qian San’er to conduct a thorough inspection of the Metropolitan Court and find the inner servant who delivered the medicine. There is a preparation first, and when His Royal Highness asks, it is better to have an explanation, right?”

Liu Chaoming’s eyes were full of turbulence, he didn’t even have time to think, he said in a deep and short way: “Save the people first.” Then he went to the front hall of the palace. go in the direction.

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, but this time he was unable to hold him, so he had to walk quickly and said, “Are you trying to understand or what? Yesterday you were in the Zhan Shifu for a discussion, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sold you. A love. Today, Su Jin has really touched the scale. If you still want to save him, you will buy a life from the East Palace! The Crown Prince and the Seven Kings are like water and fire, and the Duchayuan has never helped each other. You owe this How do you repay the debt of favor? You are the censor of Zuodu, and you are one of the seven ministers. If you are caught in the center of the battle between the government, the imperial power and the crown prince, how will you handle yourself in the future?”

Liu Chaoming’s steps were not at all. Without pausing: “What will happen in the future, I will talk about it later.”

Zhao Yan took a deep breath and said, “Liu Yun, I know that you are someone who values promises more than a thousand pieces of gold. At that time, the old imperial censor asked you to keep Su Jin, but you didn’t keep it, and I still feel ashamed. But so what? The bastards from the Ministry of Officials wrote Songshan County in their message, but they took Su Jin to another place. In order to fulfill your promise, you left Beijing alone to look for him. It has been more than half a year, should this be considered a repayment of love? If it still fails, yesterday you burned a policy for him, is this another debt? The Thirteenth Highness may not be able to keep Su Jin, if you go to buy your life with the East Palace, That’s the way to send yourself into the fire pit!”

Liu Chaoming paused, lowered his eyes and said, “A promise that must be fulfilled is called a promise, otherwise, what’s the difference between a joke? Besides, I didn’t go with me because of the old imperial censor’s entrustment. Donggong buys his life.”

He paused, and suddenly flashed in front of Su Jin’s self-blame and sad eyes when he was blood-stained and knelt down and said “I have a responsibility”, and said softly: “He is indeed worthy of his best protection.”

Six Yu Lin Wei pushed Zhu Nanxian to the ground together, restrained his hands, feet and neck respectively, and blocked his mouth with a cloth towel, which made him stop moving.

Zhu Minda looked at his younger brother, whose eyes were bloodshot and still trying to struggle, and suddenly felt a little scared, afraid that in the long run, Thirteen would be destroyed by this man named Su Shiyu.

Zhu Minda was determined to kill, and asked in a cold voice, “Su Jin, do you know the guilt?”

Su Jin lowered his eyes and kowtowed to Zhu Minda: “We are guilty.”

Zhu Minda said lightly: “It’s good to be guilty, too. There is no need to choose a place, just stick to kill here.” Then he turned his head and looked at Zhu Nanxian with cold eyes, “Let him watch it with his own eyes, it would be a good idea to stop thinking.” The

two guards came to Su After Jin died, Su Jin stood up and walked towards the execution bench, but stopped in front of Zhu Nanxian, and bowed down to him slowly and seriously.

Zhu Nanxian knew that she was saying goodbye to herself.

The moment she got up, he saw that the desolation that had accumulated in her eyes for five years suddenly turned into a clear calm.

At this moment, Zhu Nanxian felt that he saw Su Jin five years ago again, but he saw it more thoroughly.

She has never changed. It turns out that under that breeze-like temperament, there has always been a kind of stubbornness that is not afraid of death.

Yu Linwei tied Su Jin to the torture stool, Zhu Nanxian whimpered from his blocked mouth, he gritted his teeth hard, and blood oozes from his lips.

Zhu Minda stopped looking at him, and said coldly: “Fight.” Yu Linwei

raised his stick, and while the stick fell on Su Jin, a voice came from behind: “His Royal Highness.”

to.

Liu Chaoming stood outside the gloomy and dull palace, with a deep look in his eyes as if the thick fog of late autumn had gathered, kneeling down and bowing deeply to Zhu Minda.

Zhu Nanxian glanced at Zhu Minda’s expression from the corner of his eye, and knelt down with a thud, but couldn’t bear the lump of paper in his mouth, so he couldn’t help chewing twice.

Zhu Minda’s face turned black, and he suddenly shouted angrily: “Presumptuous!”

Zhu Nanxian was startled by him, and the paper ball in his throat slipped down his throat with a thud.

The blatant destruction of corpses.

Zhu Minda was so angry that he burst into smoke and shouted, “Bring a knife!” The hall door opened in response, and the servant knelt down and presented a knife. Zhu Minda pointed at Zhu Nanxian and said, “Cut his belly open for Ben Gong!

” As soon as he fell, Zhu Shiqi fell to his knees with trembling legs, clinging to Zhu Minda’s hand and crying, “Brother Huang, if you want to punish me, punish me, Brother Thirteen is doing this for me!”

Zhu Nan Xian was stunned, looked at him in silence, and said to himself, Brother Huang, you think too much, this Brother Huang is really not doing it for you.

Juminda was very troubled. These two brothers grew up beside him, one kneeling and the other making trouble, what kind of decency?

At present, the seven kings are becoming more and more powerful, and the previous water transport case was handled very beautifully. There is a hidden reputation in the outside world, and even the father and emperor are quite valued.

Although the ancestral rule is that there are direct descendants and no direct descendants, but Emperor Jing Yuan implemented the vassal system, and each crown prince was extraordinary in strength, and the Huaixi area of the Seven Kings was the place where the father emperor started to gain power, which implies. , without further ado.

Juminda was looking forward to his two younger brothers being his right-hand man.

At the age of 13, he has been advocating martial arts since he was a child, saying that his father’s country was beaten from horseback, and he was slightly negligent in literary talent.

However, the seventeen and fourteen are not diligent, the grains are not divided, the writing cannot be written, the martial arts cannot be mounted, and the living waste snacks.

Zhu Minda didn’t bother to care about these two useless people, but turned around and gave Liu Chaoming a nod, saying, “Lord Censor will laugh.”

Liu Chaoming returned with a salute.

Zhu Minda looked at the person kneeling on the ground again, suddenly remembered something, and asked, “Your surname is Su? Have you ever been a jinshi?”

Su Jin buried his head and said, “Returning to His Royal Highness, Wei Chen is the kindness of Jingyuan in the eighteenth year. Ke Jinshi.”

Zhu Minda gave a “uh” and said again, “You raise your face.”

Zhu Minda is a prince, and he has seen many good-looking people, a concubine who is charming and charming, and a gentle little student.

What do you say about this face that comes into view?

There is a clear air between the eyebrows, which can make people ignore the originally very elegant facial features.

In addition to the temperament, what is more attractive is the pair of eyes, as if there is a burning fire hidden in the bright eyes.

Zhu Minda remembered a sentence, full of poetry and literature, but unfortunately, it was three more desolate.

Zhu Minda asked Zhu Nanxian, “Before you went to the Northwest Guard, you mentioned that you wanted a jinshi to serve as your attendant and teach you knowledge, but he is the one?”

Zhu Nanxian said, but it was not.

But when the words came to his lips, he hesitated again, as if someone had suddenly broken his mind, and the thief said with a guilty conscience: “Big, probably.”

Seeing his unpromising appearance, Zhu Minda snorted coldly, and asked Yan Ziyan, “I asked you to go to Governor Su to write the strategy theory on your behalf, have you found it?”

Yan Ziyan knew that the strategy theory was originally in Liu Chaoming On his body, he said, “Returning to Your Highness, I haven’t.”

Zhu Minda thought for a while, and then asked Liu Chaoming, “I heard that Governor Su was brought to Zhan Shifu by Lord Censor?”

Liu Chaoming said yes.

Zhu Minda said: “What did the Supreme Court find out, did the Censor bring him here to ask him the crime?”

Liu Chaoming was silent for a while, and said, “It is true that Governor Su helped His Highness the Seventeenth Highness to write policies on behalf of him. I only came here to ask, but unfortunately there is no evidence.”

After hearing this, Zhu Minda gave Su Jin a thoughtful look, and said, “Since the Imperial Censor has asked about this matter, this palace is 10,000 relieved. This matter will be handed over to the Supreme Court, what Mr. Liu finds out, and how to punish it, there is no need to come back to this palace.”

Instead of dealing with an eighth-rank clerk, it is better to sell the Court’s affection.

Zhu Minda is a smart person, and just when Liu Chaoming said “Unfortunately there is no evidence”, he guessed that Liu Yushi was determined to protect Governor Su.

It is also strange, Liu Yun has been admitted to the Metropolitan Court since the age of nineteen. After six years, he has been holding an almost indifferent and fair attitude, and he has never seen him open to anyone.

But it’s okay, right now he and the old seven are like fire and water. The two younger brothers are simple-minded waste materials. If they can win the favor of the Metropolitan Court by this, it goes without saying that they support, even if it is a little bit biased, it will be a big deal in the situation. beneficial.

Thinking of this, Zhu Minda immediately bowed to Liu Chaoming again, and said, “Lord Kuai Liu.” He ignored the two His Royal Highnesses who were still kneeling on the ground, and turned to leave.

When all the officials and guards withdrew with His Royal Highness, Zhu Nanxian patted his knee before going to help Su Jin. Liu Chaoming said coldly, “Governor Su, get up.”
