The changes in the court spread to the harem with lightning speed.

Although it involves a royal scandal, there is no way to convince the public if it is not announced to the world.

Therefore, Yongzheng's mourning was forced to be suspended that afternoon and was replaced by a ceremony led by Prince Heng and other clan leaders and witnessed by important officials such as Zhang Tingyu.

Concubine Xi, Nianhulu Zhen Huan, their cronies, beneficiaries, including Prince Bao who intended to succeed to the throne through improper means, were tried and sentenced.

Imperial Concubine Xi committed ten heinous crimes, plotted to murder the late emperor, and confused the royal bloodline. She was guilty of numerous serious crimes and had no excuse. The clan court consulted and unanimously decided to sentence her to death, which could be executed immediately!

In order to raise the Niuhulu clan to the throne in the future, the entire Niuhulu clan was pardoned, but the nine clans of the Zhen family, which was their original home, were executed to comfort the spirit of the late emperor in heaven.

After their death, Concubine Xi and Concubine Wan were not allowed to be buried in the imperial mausoleum or the concubines' mausoleum, and no one was allowed to erect a monument or offer sacrifices to them. Otherwise, they would be regarded as accomplices and executed together.

The guilty woman, Zhen Huan, and her followers, including the main criminals Cui Jinxi, Su Peisheng, Wen Shichu, and Wei Lin, were all executed today.

Princess Longyue and her illegitimate sons Hongzhou and Lingxi were given poisoned wine.

The deceased Concubine Ning was deposed from her status as a concubine, demoted to a commoner, and her nine clans were held accountable.

……

Since the matter involved the assassination of the former emperor, this approach was acceptable to the people.

But later on, the decision to allow Prince Bao's legitimate wife, Princess Qionghua and Princess Jin Jia, who were personally conferred titles by the late emperor, to ascend the throne together with Prince Bao and become two princes at the same time shocked everyone.

The first are the elders of the clan who were not on the list just now, have no official position, and are enjoying their retirement.

Secondly, under the leadership of three banner owners and several generals from the lower five banners, some descendants of the Eight Banners who were related to the same clan also joined the protest.

For a time, the voices of resistance were rampant, and there was a tendency that if no agreement could be reached, violence would break out and blood would be shed on the spot.

Although Hongli was oppressed and captured as a criminal, he smiled when he saw the Manchus below vigorously vindicating his name.

He gave Jin Yuyan a mocking smile.

But it has been sixteen years since Jin Yuyan came into this world.

There is so much she can do.

As I said, the reason why they couldn't kill all the way from the Joseon Dynasty into the Qing Dynasty was simply because the Joseon Dynasty had too small a population. Even if they were one man against a thousand, they could still be defeated by the Qing Dynasty at the cost of their lives.

But it’s different now.

It is not difficult to break into the Forbidden City from the gate.

After all, this is a plot world. As long as she doesn't cause any major trouble, the time of Yongzheng's death is already determined, and the date has been written long ago.

Today's incident happened suddenly, and these flag owners were not prepared at all. They only had the courage to oppose and the so-called strength in numbers and popular support.

But she is different.

Your soldiers are all in the barracks, and it is still unclear whether they are yours.

But my soldiers have arrived a long time ago.

"Everyone, can you please explain yourself?"

Jin Yuyan walked out from the line of prince's relatives below, and the eunuchs who had been following her from a distance brought a dragon throne to her and asked her to sit down.

This move simply blinded the eyes of those opposing court officials and the Eight Banners people.

"This ignorant and arrogant woman wants to corrupt the royal power, bring chaos to the government, and destroy the government!

You bunch of tyrants actually turned a blind eye to this?!"

Among them, the Beile, who was the leader of the Bordered White Banner among the lower five banners, stood up and cursed Jin Yuyan on the spot.

Jin Yuyan had no intention of saying anything back to this inferior person who was not even worthy of participating in the so-called secret meeting with the king.

Someone will be her substitute.

As expected, a man at the edge of the court stood up, walked to the front of the stage, and after politely bowing and paying due greetings to the nobles and kings, he spoke.

“An ignorant and arrogant woman?!

Beile, do you know how much great contributions this ignorant and arrogant woman you mentioned has made to the Qing Dynasty? ! "

Woman, meritorious service? Huh?

"Don't talk nonsense, little boy!"

"Beile, you are a pedantic and ignorant person who only sees the world from a well. Why don't you use drowning to reflect on yourself?"

"you!"

"When Prince Bao's wife was a princess of Qionghua in Prince Rong's palace, she improved the seeds of rice, wheat, corn and other crops several times.

Not only has it greatly increased the yield per mu, but it has also made detailed arrangements for crop layout based on local conditions and the different geographical and water resources of the region.

Therefore, since the surrender of the Li Dynasty, even if there is no good weather, no auspicious snow, no famine, and no refugees who have no harvest due to drought or flood!

Could it be that all the facts recorded in this history book are just bluffs and false statements for the sake of greed?

With such good deeds, you can insult me ​​by calling me 'ignorant and arrogant'?!"

"It's just taking the credit for the servants' work on the master's shoulders!"

"Why don't you go, Baylor?"

"..."

The banner leader, Beile, was speechless for a moment.

The scholar, who had some biased words against Jin Yuyan but did not dare to speak out because of his status, felt extremely ashamed for a moment.

Who in their hometown has not benefited from this improved food?

It is said that a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water. What they did... is not what a gentleman does! It is really a shame to read the books of sages!

“Moreover, Concubine Xi has been wreaking havoc in the harem for several years. Who among you capable bannermen and bureaucrats has destroyed her to uphold the purity of the Qing royal family’s bloodline?!

Is it you, you, or you all?

If it weren't for Jin Jiadi Fu Jin's awareness, the imperial family would be in tatters now, allowing such a rotten person to become the empress dowager! The mother of the emperor!

This is a shame for the royal family and also a huge shame for our Qing Dynasty!

Instead of reflecting on your own incompetence, you claim that Concubine Jin Jiadi was wrong in her report?

Who is so arrogant? "

“In addition, Concubine Jin Jiadi was taught by the late Empress Dowager to save the people of the world with kindness!

Relying on the prestige of Prince Rong's Mansion, how many poor students have been helped, how many major cases of wrong answers have been overturned, at this time, you high and mighty Eight Banners Banner Masters, what are you doing? !

Lady Jin Jiadi and Princess Qionghua, if what she did were done by you, you would have been rewarded according to your merits and appointed as nobles and prime ministers long ago!

And what about her?

Now I am still here, and you have accused me of disrupting state affairs and undermining the imperial order for no reason.

Where is the law of the king? Where is justice?

Why is this happening? !

Is it because she is a woman?

Isn’t it because you, the high-ranking men, are afraid that a woman will go further than us and stand higher than us!

You are afraid of a woman who is more powerful than you!"

"Shut up!"

Every word this warrior said touched the hearts of countless people present.

What they thought in their hearts was one thing, covering it up in the name of justice was another, but being exposed in full view of the public is another.

"Your Majesty, this man is a Jinshi this year, and he is ranked in the top three. He is Xianghao of Li Jia clan, and he is originally from our Li Dynasty."

The maid beside her reported to Jin Yuyan the information she had previously obtained.

Because this Li Xianghao was not one of the mouthpieces arranged by Jin Yuyan.

But this man, who deserved to be the third place winner of this year's imperial examination, was so eloquent and his words were so sharp that they were not a bit weaker than the speech she had prepared.

The atmosphere has already heated up, so there is no need to continue chatting today.

Jin Yuyan raised her hand and started clapping.

"Master Li Jia is worthy of being the third place winner chosen by the late emperor. His talent is indeed extraordinary."

After her praise, she turned her attention to the dissatisfied adults.

"My Lord, have you ever heard a saying?"

As she spoke, the maid standing behind Jin Yuyan received the order, took out a flare from her sleeve, pulled the string and launched it into the air.

The fiery red tail flame drew a line of destination in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a deafening roar, the walls behind the court officials collapsed.

Rubble and stones splattered everywhere, especially at the group of people who were closest and whose resistance was the loudest, led by Beile, the leader of the Bordered White Banner, who were hit directly by the rubble.

Although the distance was too far to be fatal, the blood splattered on the spot.

When the smoke cleared, Jin Yuyan still sat steadily on her dragon chair, smiling and asking the adults in white clothes,

"My Lord, there is an old saying in our Li Dynasty.

Caliber is truth.”

"So today, gentlemen, do you want to see whether the caliber of my hundreds of artillery fire standing outside the Forbidden City is larger, or your bare hands, or the swords you will draw to rebel in the future are faster?"
