General Constitution of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 50 Jiajing: It's Nice to Have a Son

The arrest of Zhan Rong and Ye Tong went much smoother than Lu Bing imagined.

The two seemed to be waiting for Lu Bing on purpose.

That night, he was taken back to the Imperial Prison.

It's just that the two of them didn't say anything other than admitting that they had ordered Anpinghou to assassinate the prince.

Lu Bing stared at Zhan Rong solemnly.

"Mr. Jiaoshan, do you really have nothing else you want to tell Ben Du?"

Zhan Rongwu sat opposite Lu Bing and looked at Lu Bing with a wry smile.

"Great governor, you came here to arrest this old man, isn't it just for the big case of the Qingning Palace? The old man has already admitted it, what else do you want the old man to admit?"

Lu Bing's face darkened.

"Then what happened to Renyin Palace?!"

Before Lu Bing finished speaking, Zhan Rong interrupted directly.

"The Renyin palace change took place in the 21st year of Jiajing. At that time, the old man was ordered to govern Shandong, thousands of miles away. What does this case have to do with the old man?"

Zhan Rong and Ye Tong are not uninformed scholars, they are far more difficult than Fang Chengyu.

After a few words, Lu Bing had nothing to say.

Obviously, if Zhan Rong didn't ask himself, it was almost impossible for Lu Bing to ask anything.

Lu Bing pinched the bridge of his nose helplessly, and waved his hands to Ti Wei in the distance.

"Come on, take Mr. Jiaoshan down."

When Ti Wei took Zhan Rong away, he clearly glanced at Ti Wei in the direction of Fang Chengyu's cell.

Ti Wei immediately understood, and led Zhan Rong towards the direction where Fang Chengyu was being detained.

Not long after, Fang Chengyu saw Zhan Rong who was being taken into prison.

"Zhan Jiaoshan?!"

At this time, Fang Chengyu has long lost the brilliance of the young master in the past, and he was tossed about by the guards in just one day, just like a beggar on the street.

"Hahaha, Zhan Butang also has today, I feel relieved."

Obviously, Lu Bing made such an arrangement because he wanted to hear what Zhan Ronghui would say to Fang Chengyu.

Zhan Rong glanced at Fang Chengyu contemptuously, and heaved a long sigh.

"Why is Lord Hou so embarrassed?"

It's good not to mention it, as soon as Zhan Rong opened his mouth, Fang Chengyu couldn't help but cursed.

"Old thief! You still have the face to mention this?!"

"Just now Eunuch Zhang told me that His Majesty saved my sister that day, but he didn't get out!"

"At the beginning, the emperor even wanted to use the gift of heaven to help the difficult, and use the gift of the first wife to enshrine my sister in the Taimiao. It was you corrupt scholars who forcibly stopped it!"

"After you say that, you have become good people."

"You lied to me so badly! Fortunately, the crown prince is fine, otherwise I would have no face to meet my sister and my father!"

Listen to Fang Chengyu's words.

Zhan Rong couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahaha, hahaha."

"Lu Bing is really a good trick. I said why the old man was arrested so quickly. It turned out that I ran into you, a fool."

Fang Chengyu gritted his teeth and stared at Zhan Rong.

"Old man, what do you mean!"

Zhan Rong squinted at Fang Chengyu.

"Young Lord, have you lost your head? If the Ministry of Rites really wants to obstruct it, it will be Songjiang Xu Zisheng who will obstruct it!"

"Who is the person who stopped the shrine of Empress Xiaolie from entering the Taitai Temple? It was Yan Song! Do you really think that this old thief Yan Song has other things to mobilize him besides money?!"

Fang Chengyu was startled when he heard the words, but Zhan Rong's mouth was not idle, he slowly stood up from the prison, looked at Fang Chengyu and said with a sneer
"Young Lord, wake up, who is Yan Song? That is the person who sang bad face for Jun father! Do you think it is really Yan Song who is full of food and disobeys Jun father?! That is Jun father, please be polite." , Yan Song handed the father a step! If the father really wants the shrine of Empress Xiaolie to enter the Tai Temple, Yan Song is a traitor, how can he not follow?"

"It's ridiculous to meet your sister underground in the future."

Zhan Rong laughed out of breath.

Fang Chengyu still looked at Zhan Rong like a fool.

After a long time, a lot of information emerged in Fang Chengyu's mind. Under Zhan Rong's ridicule, Fang Chengyu, who was burning with anger, roared at the gate of the prison in the distance.

"You old thief Lu Bing! I am at odds with you!"

"Bang!" Lu Bing, who was eavesdropping outside, slammed down on the gate of the prison.

Hearing the crisp sound, a smile appeared on Zhan Rong's face. Zhan Rong, who had been struggling for several days, finally fell asleep amidst Fang Chengyu's roar.

..............................

Xiyuan.

Lu Bing, Zhang Zuo, and Zhu Zaishun knelt outside the monastery.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, the case of Marquis Anping's treason has been found out. Zhan Rong, the left servant of the Ministry of War, instigated Fang Chengyu, the Marquis of Anping, to assassinate. Zhan Rong also got the potted flower from Flangji merchant Jia."

So far, the whole case has actually come to light.

It's just that Jiajing in the abbot did not make a sound for a long time. After a long time, Jiajing, who had read the confessions of all the people, threw the confessions aside in disdain.

"Then what? What happened to Renyin Palace? It has nothing to do with this case?"

Lu Bing immediately lowered his head.

"Your ignorance is due to the fact that the Renyin Palace has not brought out the old file, so I wanted to report this case to Junfu Yulan..."

Before Lu Bing finished speaking, Jiajing directly interrupted Lu Bing's words.

"Wenfu, you look too much like me."

A vague exclamation.

But Lu Bing was so frightened that he didn't dare to look up.

Jiajing knew about Lu Bing hooking up with those scholar-bureaucrats on weekdays, but Jiajing knew Lu Bing's loyalty, and also knew that Lu Bing was completely a grasshopper tied to his own rope, so he didn't care too much.

"I dare not! I will go back and investigate again."

Jiajing glanced at Lu Bing and Zhang Zuo in front of him.

"I know it's difficult for you, but I must do this matter, do you know why?"

Lu Bing and Zhang Zuo kowtowed to the ground.

"Sir, you understand!"

As for Zhang Zuo and Lu Bing's dissatisfaction with Jiajing, Jiajing naturally didn't believe such a thing.

But what is certain is that under certain conditions, the two of them will definitely pretend to be stupid in front of themselves in order to avoid offending others.

If Jiajing was in Lu Bing's position, nine times out of ten, he would do the same.

"Prince."

Zhu Zaiyu fell to the ground when he heard the words.

"My son is here."

"You have been watching Ren Yinnian's case with Lu Bing and Zhang Zuo for so many years, and it's only a few days away. I'm not in a hurry, but there must be a result, do you understand?"

"My son understands!"

The three took orders and left.

Looking at Zhu Zaixun who stood up and was almost as tall as himself.

It was the first time Jiajing felt that having a son was so wonderful. It was so convenient to do things with such a useful son. The nonsense that the two dragons will not meet" came out, forcing his father and son not to meet each other.

Jiajing let out a long sigh.

"Gao Zhong."

Gao Zhong, who was standing by the side, hurried over.

"My lord."

Jiajing took a deep breath and smacked his tongue leisurely.

"Tao Immortal, what are you doing now?"

Gao Zhong thought for a while before speaking.

"My lord, Immortal Tao has been retreating at home since praying for snow earlier, saying that she is accompanying your father to have a feast."

"Succeed, Immortal Tao won't come to see me, I will go see Immortal Tao."

After finishing speaking, Jiajing sat in meditation in the monastery and stopped talking.
