Chapter 46
"My son!"

After five bolts of thunder fell from the sky and struck Zhu Qilu to death, the dark clouds that had gathered in midair dissipated and the sky became clear again.

The rest of the people in Pingliang Mansion were first terrified, then terrified, and then, as if they suddenly remembered something, they hurriedly imitated King Zhao and threw themselves in front of his corpse, weeping bitterly.

Right now, Zhu Qilu's crime is a certainty, and no one will discuss it anymore.

What if no physical evidence can be found?What is happening right now is really too weird. First, His Majesty said that there is a god standing three feet above the head, and then the sky, which was still extremely clear just now, suddenly darkened, and then five thunderbolts fell to kill Zhu Qilu, and the five thunderbolts happened to correspond to the victim. number of people.

If it wasn't someone who experienced it personally, otherwise, even if the matter was going out, it would be treated as a joke by others.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"May I ask His Majesty if you are communicating with God?"

For the questions of the officials, Jiajing just smiled and did not answer.

Immediately after Jiajing glanced at the ministers, he said in a loud voice: "Now the murderer Zhu Qilu has been put to death. King Han Fanzhao of Pingliang Prefecture neglected to discipline him and covered up his son's crimes! Under his rule, he extorted money, took money and perverted the law, and exploited the common people. His title is now removed. The crime will be dealt with again."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Now Pingliang Mansion will suffer, the entire feudal prince's mansion will be ransacked, and I don't know who will get this fat job!" The ministers in the hall of the Ministry of Punishment thought so and bowed their heads one after another.

"Leave this matter to Mr. Yan Ge." Jiajing seemed to have guessed what everyone was thinking, looking at Yan Song who was kneeling on the ground, and said softly.

"I obey the order, and I will definitely do this job well for the emperor." Yan Song replied tremblingly when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, we will never dare again..."

And at the same time when Jiajing gave the order, the guards waiting at the side seized everyone in Pingliang Mansion with lightning speed and escorted them to the prison. The voice of begging for mercy gradually faded away and could no longer be heard.

"Okay, now that the case is over, I'm a little tired."

"I'm waiting to send you to Your Majesty!"

After Jiajing finished speaking, he took Lu Fang and left the hall of the Ministry of Punishment, followed by a group of courtiers bowing down.

Coming out of the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment, Jiajing sat on the dragon chariot, suddenly turned around to look at Lu Fang behind him, and said in a low voice, "I've been absent-minded since just now, what are you thinking? Why don't you tell me."

"Your Majesty, this servant was just thinking about where those corpses were transferred by the people of Pingliang Mansion." Lu Fang suddenly came back to her senses, her words flickering.

"Hmph, Pingliang Mansion has collapsed! Some people want to fight for a lighter sentence, so they will naturally reveal the location of the corpse."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Lu Fang complimented with a humble smile on her face.

Jiajing felt bored, and then stopped talking to Lu Fang, but just closed his eyes on the dragon chariot and got up.

At this time, Lu Fang's back was already wet with sweat. He couldn't believe what he saw before. When the emperor said those words, he stood behind the emperor and saw it clearly.

I saw the emperor took advantage of everyone's inattention, put his right hand behind his back, and pinched a Thunder Jue very quickly, and this Thunder Jue was exactly the same as the Thunder Art recorded in the cheat book sent by Longhushan!
As soon as I gave the emperor the secret book of Leifa, the emperor turned around and pinched out a thunderbolt, and even happened to kill someone. How can there be such a coincidence in this world!

Reminiscent of the previous events, Lu Fang couldn't help but have a terrible conjecture in her mind: "Could it be that the emperor really succeeded in cultivating immortals?"

"No, no, probably not. Since ancient times, countless emperors have tried to succeed in cultivating immortals, but they all failed without exception. This should be just a coincidence. Let's serve His Majesty well!" Lu Fang shook her head, not daring to think about it any longer. Get rid of the messy thoughts in your mind, and follow Jiajing's dragon chariot step by step.

……

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. With the encouragement of all parties, what happened in the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment was soon spread out, triggering a huge discussion.

"Have you heard? The people from Pingliang Mansion hid the corpse in an attempt to escape punishment!"

"I heard that later, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor himself communicated with the heavens, and then he sent down five thunderbolts to kill him!"

"I have a friend who works in the palace. I heard that the thunder was as thick as an arm and smashed all the stone slabs on the ground!"

"Your Majesty is really a virtuous king, otherwise how can you communicate with God?"

"Hmph, the old man said before that any evil will be brought to justice!"

The entire capital is discussing this matter wantonly, from the high officials and nobles to the common people.People with connections and relationships have inquired about the facts through various channels, while those without connections, after listening to the general idea, add fuel and vinegar to it, and use it as an after-dinner conversation, and the business of temples and Taoist temples near the capital has improved a lot. There was an endless stream of people who came to offer incense.

However, while discussing, some people inevitably raised questions: "The imperial court spends so much money every year just to support such a bunch of useless clans. If we save the money for raising clans, wouldn't we be able to do more things?"

Soon this kind of public opinion intensified under the impetus of caring people, but the government did nothing from the beginning to the end, and just let it gradually ferment.

……

Shaanxi, Pingliang Prefecture, Han Fan.

Since the early years of Xuande, King Gong of Han requested that the taxes raised by the Pingliang region for the Eastern Central Guard be used to build the palace of the palace. After obtaining the emperor's approval, the palace of the Palace of Han, which was already extremely luxurious, was expanded again.

Inside the Palace of the King of Han, there are shades of ancient locust trees and green willows blowing the ground. In front of the hall is a white jade corridor. The back of the hall twists and turns. After a few steps, you can get a spectacle. The palace is solemn and magnificent, with yellow bricks on the floor and painted walls in the palace.

But today, all of this was in vain. After learning the news that the house was about to be ransacked, the whole mansion became chaotic in an instant. And put a few pieces along, put the ones that are convenient to take away in the bag with you, and fight for the ownership of a vase.

Crying, cracking of ceramics, and cursing resounded throughout the mansion.

"You slaves, put your things down for me! Do you want to rebel?"

"That's my vase, ouch!"

"My calligraphy and painting, my private money!"

At first, the butler tried to stand up and maintain order, but soon he was overwhelmed by the angry servants and turned into a dead body on the ground.

Just as the servants were looting, the officers and soldiers sent by the government came, and after killing several servants who looted the property, they barely managed to control the situation.

"Listen, you guys, we are from the government, and we are here to search your Han Palace under the orders of the higher authorities!"

"Everyone who is sensible, let me put down the things, otherwise, you will feel better!"

The leading officers and soldiers came in, and after roughly reading the government's announcement, they also joined in, and their actions were no different from those of the previous slaves who looted property.

In the study room, the leading officer and soldier looked at his incompetent subordinates and couldn't help frowning, and then went up and kicked each of them.

"You pig brains, take less, we take at most three taels of silver, and the rest has to be tribute to the higher-ups! Don't take it, other people will come later."

"Oh oh oh."

Reminded by the boss, the remaining people forcibly suppressed their inner greed and put the extra belongings back to their original places.

Immediately afterwards, more and more officials came in. Unlike the previous ones, the officials who came this time were obviously very disciplined. They searched out the property in the mansion in an orderly manner and sorted it into a book.
