An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

An Lingrong took the emperor from the Thousand Carp Pond, to the Lotus Pond, to the Imperial Garden, and then back to the Yangxin Hall. The dark clouds on the emperor's face suddenly disappeared, and the sunlight filtered in.

After returning to the Yangxin Hall and picking up the papers to sue E Min, the emperor seemed to have made a strong determination on this matter: "Li Bi, I have decided to send people to suddenly attack E Min's mansion. Only after The evidence of his corruption was only obtained when he was unable to guard against it. He must have committed corruption. It's just a matter of the amount. You're right, I just don't have enough money. "

An Lingrong nodded and said: "Your Majesty, if you want to purge the court, you can't take Qi Concubine's face into account. Concubine Qi is probably aware of E Min's crime, but she chose to cover up her favoritism."

The emperor nodded and said: "Qi's concubine is Qi's concubine, and Emin is Emin. As long as Qi's concubine does not cause trouble, she will not be implicated. As my concubine, my concubine's family should set an example, and Emin will not be implicated." Regardless of my face, why should I care about him? It is really a heinous crime to break the law."

The emperor had not officially inspected E Min's residence, but E Min spilled dirty water on An Lingrong in the court hall, which immediately angered the emperor.

E Min said: "Li concubine, the concubine in the harem, was given the word "Li" by the emperor. She was originally a beauty who liked to ride horses. The concubines in the harem were familiar with military books and history books, which violated the palace rules. But Li concubine's "Li" character, if she was riding a horse, A war horse is not meant to go into battle to kill the enemy. Moreover, the voice of the concubine Li is like an oriole. There is nothing wrong with the word "li", but there is a yellow character in front of the word "li". Don't forget, only the emperor can afford this yellow character. Ming Yellow is also the emperor's special color. From this point of view, Li Bin's "Li" character is really disrespectful. I dare to ask the emperor to change the title of Li Bin. "

The emperor suppressed the anger in his heart and turned to other ministers to ask for their opinions. E Min was in the spotlight, and Zhen Yuandao was not present. Even Zhen Yuandao was targeted by E Min and imprisoned by the emperor. No one in the court said a word. , this matter also involves the emperor's harem, or whether to change the title or not is not important to them at all.

The ministers were silent for a while, and the emperor was also silent. As long as he couldn't hold himself back, there would be someone more impatient than him.

Sure enough, E Min thundered again: "In the opinion of Weichen, the word "Li" used by Empress Li is very inappropriate. It conflicted with the emperor, which caused the war. This invasion of the Junggar Khanate came to the city. , It’s really arrogant. I’ll observe the situation and see that the Qing Dynasty is in danger, so please ask the emperor to change the name of Empress Libin as soon as possible.”

The emperor became angry, his eyes widened with anger, and he glared at E Min angrily: "I will seriously consider what Lord E said, but I have an anonymous document here, Su Peisheng, take it and show it to all your Lordships first. From left to right, from back to front, wait for everyone to take a look at it, and then let Mr. E take a closer look!"

Su Peisheng carefully presented the fold to the ministers with both hands, and they passed it around one by one. The whispers started, and finally it reached E Min's hand. He glanced at it for a few times, his face was ashen, and he heard a "pop!" After closing the memorial, he said with a hint of panic in his eyes: "Your Majesty, this cannot be true. You see, this is an anonymous letter. This person doesn't even dare to sign his name. Your Majesty..."

The emperor lowered his eyebrows and said with a touch of coldness on his face: "Master E, don't worry first. What is the truth of this matter? Whether Master E has been wronged or not? It won't take long to find out. It's just dawn this morning. I have already sent people to Mr. E's residence. Hey, at this time, I am afraid they have already arrived at Mr. E's residence. I have repeatedly told them not to hurt the people in the house or break things, and they will be careful. "

E Min's face turned pale, so white that it was scary.

Guarjia Emin was from the Xianglan Banner of Manchuria and the nephew of Ertai. Ertai was a bachelor. Emin's father was Xilin Jueluo.

Emin was first a Jinshi, and then was appointed a Shujishi. Soon, he was sent by the emperor to Ruizhou, Jiangxi Province to serve as the prefect, and was later promoted to the chief envoy.

The chief envoy is a local official, and like the governor, he is a second-rank official.

After several years of hard work, Zhen Yuandao was promoted from the fourth rank of Dali Temple Shaoqing to the second rank of Dali Yuan Zhengqing, one level higher than E Min.

The emperor suddenly investigated Emin and caught him off guard. A large amount of silver notes and gold were found from Emin's residence, including the huge vases in his residence, which were filled not with water but with silver. The outside of the flower garden The walls are entirely made of gold, and the exterior is surrounded by a thick layer of lace made of high-quality imitation fabric.

The emperor checked E Min's residence and found out that the corruption was real. He detained his family overnight and put E Min in prison.

He usually doesn't do anything bad and doesn't get startled when he knocks on the door in the middle of the night. Zhen Yuandao is soundly asleep.

What's funny is that E Min came to the cell that was originally closed to Zhenyuan Road.

The guard knocked on the cell door for a long time before waking up Zhen Yuandao. Zhen Yuandao had slept soundly. He opened his eyes and looked, with a smile on his wrinkled face and said: "Hey, this is the sun. Come out from the west, Mr. E is here to see me. Let me see if you have brought some wine. Let’s have two more drinks.”

E Min was wearing a prison uniform with shackles on his hands. He glared at Zhen Yuandao who was enjoying his misfortune, turned sideways and said, "Master Zhen, if you stay here for a long time, come out and make a nest!"

Zhen Yuandao circled around E Min and asked: "What's going on? Why did Mr. E wear such clothes and enter the cell? It turns out he didn't come to see me. Could it be that the sky has opened its eyes and realized that it was wrong to blame me? Okay, I Sir, please move here. This straw bed is just getting hot. Look, you are here. Come in!"

After Zhen Yuandao finished taunting E Min, he walked out of the cell with a relaxed step. His face was grim but relieved.

Qi Bin cried and knelt down outside the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart. Su Peisheng pretended to pull her, but he prevented her from pushing her secretly. Once she was bitten by a snake, she had been afraid of well ropes for ten years, so Su Peisheng helped her. , seeing that she refused to get up, he left her kneeling outside.

The emperor didn't want to see her, and just asked Su Peisheng to inform her that E Min was E Min. If Qi Concubine didn't make any noise or get involved in this matter, she would definitely not cause trouble. Qi Concubine should go back to Chu Xiu earlier. Go to the palace!

Qi Concubine cried and said: "Your Majesty, everyone in the harem knows that this Chuxiu Palace was formerly occupied by Xin Chang. Everyone who was there is no longer there. No wonder I always feel that there is a sinister atmosphere in this Chu Xiu Palace." The feng shui is so bad that so many strange things happen. Can the emperor change the concubines to another palace? There must be something wrong with this palace, and my father will be implicated. The emperor... "

Su Peisheng went to pull her back, while persuading her in a low voice: "Empress Qi, the emperor just asked your servant to tell you, he said..."

Qi Bin said angrily: "He said he said, what did the emperor say? You said it!"

Su Peisheng lowered his head and glanced into the Yangxin Palace, and persuaded in a low voice: "Empress Qi, your Majesty said that no matter how bad the Chuxiu Palace is, it is still better than the Cold Palace."

Qi Bin seemed to be shocked. She patted the dust on her clothes, stood up, and left with a puff of sleeves.
