eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 46 Rarely Confused
The civil servants fought to this extent, and the emperor was still hesitating whether to kill Li Guang, even if the results of divination were known.

It shows that Hong Zhi actually didn't just trust Li Guang, but thought of the so-called "strange recipe" mastered by Li Guang.

So Li Guang actually had a hard time dying.

It's just that man is not God's perspective, he can't see this.

But now he could not escape death, and the reason was actually said by himself.

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao probably guessed that Chang Qing might know everything about Li Guang.

But he has a chance to live.

Because even if he went around and broadcast in the Forbidden City all day long: the crown prince broke his promise and knocked Li Guang's money. He promised to save people, but now he won't save them.

Even so, no one would believe it.

Is the prince short of money?

Even if it is missing, does it not exist to be an emperor and queen?
I, the dignified prince of the Ming Dynasty, ask you for money for an eunuch?

My brain is broken!
this is one.

Two, he can't say that.

If you say it, you will die.

Just like Li Guang is now.

In front of Emperor Hongzhi, when all the important officials in the court are present, splash dirty water on the prince's face?How is this any different from throwing dirty water on the emperor's face? !

The ancients paid special attention to the "virtue" of the superior.

The so-called virtue does not match, there must be disasters.

If what you said is true, then there is a problem with the prince's virtue and the legitimacy of the prince's status.

For example, rebellion, the abolition of the empress, and the abolition of the prince, no matter what, the edict will be charged with a crime: immorality.

So what do you want to do with such a thing?What would Emperor Hongzhi think?
Don't talk about Hongzhi, even Kangxi's family of sons, he will also be killed.

If what you're saying is false, there's something wrong with you, damn it!

So the emperor heard Li Guang's words, and his face suddenly changed when he heard half of it. He slapped the table hard and cursed angrily: "Li Guang! You are bold!! I think you are giving Bow your head! A dog slave dares to bite my prince! Do you really think I can't kill you?!"

In fact, Li Guang didn't lower his head,
He was in a panic at the moment of life and death, even if he told the truth honestly, if he didn't say that the crown prince would not save him, he felt that he was also dead.The main thing is that it was tricked by others, and he couldn't accept it!

Until the moment he came back to his senses, his heart seemed to skip a beat!
The prince asked him for money?If such an outrageous thing is said without the slightest evidence, wouldn't that be suicide? !
Zhu Houzhao lowered his eyebrows and remained silent, thinking in his heart that people are still most afraid of losing their hearts when doing things: At the beginning, it was you, the old guy, who always said that the money should be given in secret, and there must be a reason after giving it.

It is your own credit for doing this without anyone noticing.

but,

In fact, he died even if he had evidence, and his death was worse and faster.

Because the emperor wants to protect the prince.

For example... If Changqing went to inform the emperor, would the emperor pursue the prince?No, the emperor will kill and help the prince cover up.

This is the Forbidden City,

There's addictive power, intoxicating wealth, and if it's warm and friendly, then unless communism has arrived.

"My lord, please forgive me! This servant made a slip of the tongue! This servant just... just said that His Highness is always benevolent, and this servant begged His Highness, His Highness... and His Majesty..." Li Guang was really panicked, and his words were thrown upside down. of.

"Come on! Take this dog slave to me!" The emperor became even more angry when he heard that.
"Yes!"

At this time, Xie Qian saw that the emperor did not say anything that contained the intention of 'killing'. He was a little anxious and wanted to strike while the iron was hot.

But just as he was about to raise his head, Li Dongyang held him down.

Then Xie Qian saw Li Ge Lao shook his head very slightly.

From Li Dongyang's point of view, Li Guang would surely die if he said those words.

What kind of character is His Majesty?

Perhaps weak in many ways, but it is different when it comes to His Royal Highness,
Do you still remember the Lecture Book from the East Palace?

really,

After Emperor Hongzhi got angry, he began to feel infinitely distressed, "I know that Li Guang's character is flawed, but he is good at cultivating Taoism, and it is hard to find such a strange person, so I thought that as long as I always watch and stop in time, I will not be killed." It caused a catastrophe. But I didn’t expect that my hard work and hard work had brought up such a wolf-hearted thing! Today, you dare to speak nonsense in public! Slander the prince! The intention behind it is extremely sinister! Behavior is known both inside and outside!"

Wang Jia chose to speak at this time, "Your Majesty, calm down! Such villains are not worthy of His Majesty's anger. Your Majesty, since he was promoted to Zhan Shifu's Shao Zhan Shi, His Highness the Crown Prince has prepared questions every time he enters the East Palace. I explain in detail one by one, the sage's learning is improving every day! His eagerness to seek knowledge and the truth of his learning have already impressed the minister! Every time he enters the school, His Highness will treat each other with courtesy and ask questions with sincerity. He is indeed my wise prince of Ming Dynasty !The prince’s virtue is as radiant as the sun and the moon, and it is definitely not something that a villain can slander with a few words!"

Zhu Houzhao also chose to be modest at this time, "Mr. Wang is too famous."

"Well. Your words, Wang Jia and Wang Jizhi, have never been false." After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi went along with his heart, and he also felt a sense of "a tacit understanding between the monarch and his ministers" towards Wang Jia.

At this time, it is necessary for a person whose moral character is trustworthy to say such things.

As soon as this word comes out,
The ministers from inside to outside not only did not believe Li Guang's nonsense, but became even more excited.

"My prince of the Ming Dynasty is unparalleled in virtue! Li Guang actually speaks outrageous words! It's really abhorrent!"

"Your Majesty, please kill this thief!"

……

To this extent, if Li Guang is not killed, it will be difficult to reassure the heart of heaven; if Li Guang is not killed, the anger of the officials will be hard to understand;

Where can the emperor find another reason not to kill?
So Jinkou opened his mouth, "Pass the decree, give him a three-foot white silk!"

After the imperial decree was issued, everyone present knelt down, including Zhu Houzhao.

"Your Majesty is holy! Long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"

……

……

When the other courtiers retreated, Zhu Houzhao stayed in the Nuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace.

He knew that the emperor's heart would not be very happy,
In fact, he wanted to say in his heart, not only Li Guang but his father,
Not to mention the distance, the relationship is relatively close,
And those vassals who keep asking for more land and salt,

On the other side of the Zhang family, Heling and Yanling, relying on their identities as relatives of the emperor, used the Forbidden City as a vegetable market to come and go at will.

Emperor, it's really not an easy job.

"Xiao Jing, you follow." The emperor said that he had dismissed the old eunuch, but actually sent people around him to search to see if there was any "secret method" hidden in Li Guang's house.

"Father, a person like Li Guang is not worthy of my father's grief."

The emperor shook his son's hand and said, "Maybe...the emperor really believed in the wrong person."

Zhu Houzhao was speechless, he couldn't say it, you just realized it.

outside the palace.

The elders and ministers all returned victorious, and everyone greeted each other and went home.

Xie Qian went to find Li Dongyang.

This time they were fighting side by side. Now that the results are good, they are naturally in a good mood.

But Li Dongyang saw Xie Qian's mouth ready to move, and followed him all the way to such a deserted corner, so he guessed the purpose of coming, "Yu Qiao wants to talk to someone again? What do you want to say this time?"

The two of them are very trusting of each other.

Xie Qian didn't hide it from him, "Li Guang is a traitor, but he is not a fool. It is unbelievable that he said that in the end..."

In his opinion, if nothing happened, would Li Guang be stupid and want to bite the prince?
So the answer is actually there.

Li Dongyang's face remained motionless, he neither affirmed nor denied, and sighed earnestly, "There are so many of us who can't say anything, and His Highness immediately killed him when the matter was involved. Yu Qiao, people, it's rare to be confused."

That's the kind of thing, why do you go to investigate him?Find out the person who forced Li Guang to death, and then find out the root, and then what?May Your Majesty uphold justice?
What is seeking a country?

The meaning of this word is very deep.

"At first I thought it was Yang Tinghe, but at this time Yang Tinghe is already in Qingzhou..." In Xie Qian's heart, the image of the crown prince gradually began to grow deep.

Of course they didn't know what happened, and they didn't dare or want to know, but judging from the results, they knew that it was Li Guang who missed the crown prince.

But is Li Guang an unknown person?
"It's no wonder that Wang Jizhi, who is full of arrogance, said that he is a generation of sages."

Li Dongyang left this sentence and walked away.

That's where the matter stopped.

When people of later generations read history, they probably only know that in the winter of the tenth year of Hongzhi, the ministers asked the emperor to kill Li Guang, and the crown prince assisted him.However, it is impossible to know the conspiracy and calculations hidden behind it.

And this great Ming prince made the court during the Hongzhi period more exciting, and it also made people look forward to the future.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, what kind of performance will Daming's "next chapter" be like...
