Chapter 331 Bad news

"...Now there is Wei Luoshi, the wife of the commander of the capital, who is virtuous and virtuous, and can be an example for all women in the world. I am very happy to mourn my family, and I bestow a third-grade gentleman..."

Luo Tian leaned against the wall, staring at the little eunuch who announced the Queen's order, his head thumped, as if it had exploded, but he couldn't hear anything.

What did the eunuch just say?He said that Wei Que...Wei Que died at the border and couldn't even find his body?This must not be true, how could a domineering and unreasonable person like Wei Que die as soon as he said he would die?

She can't believe it!
"Wei Shuren, accept the order." The eunuch who announced the order looked at the thin woman in front of him with a little pity, and thought it was a pity that she was going to be a widow at such a young age. None of the children.

Luo Tiandu clenched his fists with both hands, and his nails pierced deeply into the flesh, but she seemed unconscious and not afraid of pain at all, she straightened her back, her face was instantly white, without a trace of blood.She took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice: "This father-in-law, what are you talking about? My husband..."

The old eunuch sighed, his heart softened a bit, he didn't care about her rudeness of not immediately accepting the order, instead he softened his tone and reminded: "Master Wei, he... died for the country, Wei Shu, please mourn."

Hey, this person's heart softened when he got old. If it was normal, someone who dared to shake face in front of him like this, and didn't even accept the Queen's orders, he would have sued Queen Ning. , punish her for disrespect.

Luo Tiandu took the imperial decree in a daze, the bright yellow silk brocade made people's eyes hurt.

... all commanded Shi Weique, brave and fearless, and sacrificed his life for the country...

Luo Tian rubbed her eyes, obviously her eyes are very sharp, why can't she see anything clearly this time?
"People can't be resurrected after death, and Wei Shu people still look forward to mourning." The eunuch who issued the decree saw that Luo Tian had accepted the decree. No matter how regretful he was, he couldn't say a second word of comfort. Wei Que lost his life, but the royal family Treating him well, after all, His Highness the Eighth Highness also did not come back, not only did His Majesty not blame him, but instead bestowed Luo Tiandu with the status of a third-rank gentleman, which was worthy of Wei Que's diligence and loyalty to the royal family for so many years.

Think about the one in Kunyi Palace, whose only son died, not only couldn't show sadness, but also had to cheer up to comfort the courtiers and female relatives.

After the old eunuch left, Luo Tiandu stood in the room with a dazed expression, almost unable to stand up.Leaning against the wall, she felt that a basin of ice water had poured her head to the bottom, and her whole body was trembling, her hands were stiff, as if she couldn't hold anything. On the ground, only the characters of "Sanpin Shuren" are exposed.

Three grades of Shuren?

She was at a loss for a while, Wei Que was gone, what did she want for the false name of a third-grade gentleman?
The north wind blew, and the bare branches of the old tree in the yard swayed unceasingly. Standing in the wind, Luo Tian felt a severe pain in his heart, and something warm flowed out from his eye sockets, one drop or two... Slowly Slowly dripping down, dripping on the ridiculous imperial decree.

It took a long time before Luo Tian came back to her senses. She took a deep breath, wiped the tears from her face, and without even looking at the imperial decree on the ground, she walked firmly into the house and slowly walked to the pear tree. In front of the box, she opened the box, fumbled through the clothes in the box, and took out her treasure chest.Opening the treasure chest, there was a small black dagger lying in it, and a silver bill of one thousand taels. This was all Wei Que left for her.

She lay on the bed, holding the dagger in front of her chest, feeling a little more stable in her heart, and then closed her eyes.

Wei Que will definitely not die, he must be hiding in some mountain corner, waiting for the wind and snow at the border to pass, one day he will jump out and stand in front of her.

He is waiting for her.

She is going to find him.

The eighth prince, the emperor's son, lost his life on the battlefield, and the first courtier of the Daqing Dynasty disappeared. No matter the princes, nobles or traffickers in the whole capital, they all stopped. We all know that the emperor is sad, and he is worried that he can't find anyone to vent his anger. All of them clamped their tails and behaved honestly.

The old eunuch who issued the decree was an old man serving in Yikun Palace, so he naturally knew the seriousness, he left the Wei Palace and didn't stay outside, didn't even drink a sip of tea, and hurried back to the palace with his head down.

Emperor Tianqi was accompanying the queen in Yikun Palace, saw him come back, and asked: "You went to Weifu, how is the child doing?"

The old eunuch bent down, secretly glanced at the faces of the two empresses, swallowed, and replied: "Mrs. Wei has a deep affection for Mr. Wei. After hearing the news of Mr. Wei, she is very sad. Such a spirited person , as if suddenly lost his soul, unable to speak, the old slave couldn't bear to look at it."

Emperor Tianqi was silent for a long time before he sighed: "That child is really pitiful, she is only newly married, after all, we owe her a debt."

Empress Ning sat on the chair, her face sinking like water.She used to take good care of herself, but although she was getting old, her black hair was shiny and shiny. When the news of the Eighth Prince's death came, but in just a few days, her whole body quickly aged, and her hair turned out to be much grayer. Not messy at all, and even more eye-catching.She tried her best to hold back the grief on her face, the joints of her hands covered in her sleeves had already protruded.

Wei Que died, the royal family owed him, what about her child?Her emperor's son is also dead, who should be responsible for this debt?

Her prince, full of vengeance, went to the frontier to guard Daqing. On that snow-covered land, he was killed alive by those vicious women and their bastards.

Emperor Tianqi has experienced many ups and downs in his life, no matter how sad he was in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, he pondered for a while, and said: "That girl has a stubborn temper, she is not easy to get along with, and there is chaos in Beijing right now. , you go again tomorrow and tell her to let her stay in the capital with peace of mind, I will give her an account of Wei Que."

The majestic emperor of a country, Jinkou Yuyan promised to give her an explanation to a courtier's family. This is a very heavy promise. The old eunuch trembled in his heart, answered yes, then bowed his body, and quietly retreated .

Emperor Tianqi looked at Empress Ning who seemed to have aged by more than ten years in a few days, and said sadly: "It's my fault, I hurt Ling'er. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."

Empress Ning turned her face away, and said sadly: "Confess? Even if His Majesty kills all the traitors who killed the emperor, what's the use? The emperor's concubine will never come back again."

Xu was infected by the sadness on Empress Ning's face, and Emperor Tianqi also showed a very sad look on his face.At this moment, he was no longer the aloof emperor, but a grieving old man who had lost his son.

Compared with the previous emperors of the Daqing Dynasty, Emperor Tianqi can be regarded as a good emperor who is diligent in government and loves the people. , Encountering the killing of his sons and heirs, he still can't let go.

The most taboo of being an emperor is that the people under him are restless, especially if this restless person is his son, it is even more intolerable.Emperor Tianqi's sadness only lasted for a short while, and after leaving Yikun Palace, he returned to be the invincible, iron-blooded and shrewd Emperor of Daqing.

Emperor Apocalypse turned his grief into strength, and sent a decree to command the deputy envoy Ren Qi to cooperate with Master Qingming of Dali Temple to investigate the case of food supplies.

Although Shenwuwei is notorious in Shangjing, the Shenwuwei are very united with each other. Wei Que was designed by someone to die unjustly at the foot of Donglin Mountain. With Emperor Tianqi's approval, they ordered their deputy envoy Ren Qiqin to go out and torture the grain transport officials. In less than two days, a list was drawn up.

After checking the list, a series of people involved in the case were found out, including those in the palace who also extended their hands.Thousands of people suspected that the lord knew the result of the trial, so they didn't dare to delay for a moment, entered the palace late at night, and personally presented the memorial to Emperor Tianqi's case.

Emperor Tianqi only glanced at it, and then calmly said: "I see, you can go down."

No matter how daring Lord Ming was, he found out that one of Emperor Tianqi's sons had plotted to kill the other son, he was still in a cold sweat from fright. After holding his breath and leaving the Wenhua Palace, he touched his neck, and couldn't believe that he was so lucky. After knowing such a scandal in the royal family, he was not angered by Emperor Tianqi to kill him.

As soon as Lord Ming came out of the Wenhua Palace, Emperor Tianqi put on a sullen face and said, "Come on, bring that wicked son in—"

In the 27th year of "Congde" in Daqing, the eighth prince Feng Taoling died in battle in Donglin Mountain. When the whole country was in mourning, the fourth prince Feng Zhixian felt disobedient and led his troops to force the palace at night. Stopped by the imperial guards, the fourth prince Feng Zhixian was shot dead on the spot by the escorting Shenwu guards.

The fourth prince, Feng Zhixian's biological mother, Concubine Wan Gui, was relegated to the cold palace, and in a desolate way, he just happened to be with her deadly rival, the deposed Concubine Xing Gui, as a companion.

Chengenhou's mansion was raided all over the house, and the deputy envoy Ren Qi was commanded to lead the people. From Chengenhou's mansion, 200 million taels of silver were copied. There were countless land deeds for good farmland and Zhuangzi, and countless treasures such as precious jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, not only that , Several letters between Cheng Enhou and North Liang and Northeast Governor Sun Houze were also found in the secret room of Cheng Enhou's mansion. He had his own way to force the Eighth Prince to go to Donglin Mountain to meet the Beiliang cavalry with Tao Ling.

The emperor was furious, and the ransacking of the family was changed to beheading. The Wan family, a famous family in the past, was destroyed, and the son, father, brother, and mother were all executed. In desperation, Concubine Wan Gui hanged herself in the cold palace.

So far, the two most honorable concubines of the Daqing Dynasty have died and the other has been abolished. The harem that you have been fighting for for decades has finally calmed down.

What followed was the incident of grain and grass materials in the Northwest, implicating hundreds of court officials, large and small, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs who took the blame and dismissed, Sun Houze, the governor of the Northeast, was beheaded, and the Sun's mansion was confiscated.

In the winter of this year, the snow on the ground at Caishikou in Shangjing was stained red with blood.
