Raiders of the demon concubine who crossed

"Your Majesty, Uncle Shen Wang." King Jing Muzi said, "Brother Wang has betrayed His Majesty's trust, corrupted the law with corruption, and committed no small fault. I still remember the severe drought that year, which displaced tens of thousands of people in Da Chu. Brother Wang still embezzles the relief money that was given to them to save their lives. What he has done is disgusting and shameful to the clan. I think that the official punishment will not fall into the name of my royal family."

King Jing is the younger brother of King Cheng and the emperor. If King Cheng is useless, he will naturally take over the errands of King Cheng in the court. Moreover, it is only appropriate for King Jing to refute this. Can the current emperor treat brothers harshly?No, he has always trusted King Cheng and King Jing. It was King Cheng who acted recklessly and acted recklessly by taking advantage of his noble status. Although King Shen loved the blood of the late emperor, he shamed the clan. If the late emperor was alive, he would be cruel disposal.

King Shen sighed, and changed his words: "The emperor made his own decision, and the old minister was confused for a while. The old minister is also worried that he will be involved too much, and the court will be in turmoil."

The emperor said: "I understand Uncle Shen's painstaking efforts. Thank you, Uncle Shen, for your understanding."

King Shen is highly respected. If he continues to oppose on behalf of the clan, it will not be easy for the emperor to deal with King Cheng. King Cheng is different from the prince. The relatives of the country have dealt with King Cheng, and the other clans will inevitably feel bitter.Fortunately, respecting the king is general, and a few words dispelled the idea of ​​King Shen dissuading the emperor. Why did the emperor deal with King Cheng? To put it bluntly, King Cheng did it on his own and angered the emperor. The other clans are not like this. With such a duty, King Shen is still happy to be at leisure.

Gu Yan saw that the old fox Shen Wang had turned his back on him, and he couldn't say the same thing a second time, so he winked at Gu Zhen, and Gu Zhen said for him: "Your Majesty, I still remember that when the late Emperor was here, he once boasted about his sincerity. Wang Wendu, who knows that he has become like this in these years, I still don't believe it, I always feel that there seems to be something hidden here."

Gu Zhen still wanted the emperor to take a look at the late emperor's face, and she meant something. Perhaps King Cheng was deceived by others. As long as the emperor felt suspicious, it would be a while to delay.

But what he said angered Chu Liang. Chu Liang poked his neck and sneered: "What Gu Shangshu means is that I arrested him without a thorough investigation? If you really think he is innocent, don't just play lip service, just take it Come up with evidence of his innocence, otherwise who would say it casually? The first emperor did praise Cheng Wang back then, but in the past few decades, things are right and people are wrong. Isn’t it rare? The money for disaster relief was sent directly to Prince Cheng. He accepted it himself, and with his status, can anyone force him to embezzle and accept bribes?"

Besides, the late emperor had praised many people before, how many of them were out of politeness, and how many of them were sincere. The late emperor just said it casually, and Gu Zhen seemed to be using chicken feathers as arrows.

The emperor glared at Chu Liang, and said: "Okay, what are you doing in such a confrontation? I let you be a minister, so I let you quarrel? Do your part, and you don't have to worry about anything else!"

Chu Shangshu pleaded guilty, and Gu Shangshu was also choked to the point of begging for mercy.

In this situation, there are not many people left who want to help King Cheng. Without the identities of King Shen and the Gu family, it is useless to say anything. Even Mr. Cao has killed his relatives righteously. What can they do? Accidentally being implicated, some of them are indeed a little tricky, afraid that the punishment department will check on themselves, and they are eager to get rid of the relationship with King Cheng at the moment.

"Someone once said to me that not all mistakes can be forgiven, and I deeply believe it. I believe that the spirit of the late emperor will also agree with my decision."

Seeing that no one objected, the emperor proposed to deal with King Cheng.He thinks he treats his brothers well, but once brothers cross the line, he will never show mercy.

Mu Ziyue was stripped of his official position and confiscated, and was imprisoned in Prince Cheng's mansion for life. All the money he had obtained over the years was returned, all his family property was confiscated, and he was not guilty of any crimes involving his children and other clans. King Shen was relieved.

Gu Yan and Gu Zhen originally wanted to fight for Prince Cheng's heir and let the throne fall to Mu Chenghong, but they didn't expect the emperor to seize the title directly.Without the throne, wouldn't everyone in Prince Cheng's House be just like an ordinary clan?There is no lack of down-and-out nobles in the imperial city. Gu Yan gritted his teeth and thought, since they are all in such a field, there is no need to help the prince. What's the use of the Gu family wanting a waste, let Mu Ziyue stay quietly in Chengwang's mansion , It really doesn't work, wait until the crown prince ascends the throne, and then try to get him out.

It's just that the prince and the Gu family have to remember the Prince Cheng's mansion that was once saddled.

Due to his marriage leave, Prince Rui skillfully avoided this turmoil, but the details, from beginning to end, were clear to Prince Rui.When preparing for the big wedding, he assisted Chu Liang in the secret investigation of King Cheng. Many of the evidence and clues were collected and handed over by his cousin, Mu Chengze himself.

Back then, Mu Chengze and his adoptive mother, Chen Shi, were drugged by the side concubine Zhou, and loyal servants approached King Cheng, but King Cheng never cared about it.In the end, Mrs. Chen died, and Mu Chengze was slightly poisoned, but he was deaf before he died.Mu Chengze hated the Zhou family in his heart, and he also hated King Cheng who would not save him.He has limited power at hand. In order to bring down his father, he has been waiting for an appropriate time. It was not until the emperor was dissatisfied with King Cheng that he wanted to thoroughly investigate Prince Cheng because of the corruption case of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Mu Chengze reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice through Prince Rui. Submit everything that has been checked over the years.

He is actually a very simple person, who regards etiquette as nothing, repays kindness for kindness, and revenges for revenge.If Yunxi is the favor he wants to repay in this life, King Cheng and the Zhou family are the revenge he must repay.

Although Mu Chengyuan didn't quite agree with some of Mu Chengze's actions, but this person has experienced ups and downs, his temperament is withdrawn, and he can't hear, so many thoughts are naturally different from ordinary people.Mu Chengyuan also wanted to get rid of King Cheng, and he coincided with Mu Chengze. Although he was not at the court during this period, it was not difficult to achieve the ultimate goal. There is no need to directly confront the Gu family who will definitely help King Cheng, as long as the people in the court of King Rui support the emperor.This is also the fundamental reason why Gu Yan and Gu Zhen discovered that although Prince Rui was not there, the court was still out of control.

King Cheng violated the laws of the country, and his courtiers supported him. Since the emperor has a heart, he will definitely deal with King Cheng. The royal practice is to cut the nobility and confine him.Now that King Cheng is gone, the one in the clan who can succeed King Cheng is King Jing.One ebbs and another, but the Gu family has not been aware of it for a while, the prince lost the help of King Cheng, who will benefit in the end.

As for Mu Ziyue being escorted back to Prince Cheng's mansion, he found that the mansion was full of devastation, and his beloved Zhou family was also executed, and all kinds of crimes of the Zhou family found by the Ministry of Criminal Justice were in front of him. Will care.

The Zhou family's disturbance in Prince Rui's residence was originally instigated by others. Mu Chengpei could have imagined that Mu Chengze was the same. Prince Rui helped him avenge his revenge and reciprocated his favor. The news about another prince, His Royal Highness, naturally fell to Prince Rui. hands.

Prince Rui raised his eyebrows, he had already warned Prince Duan not to stir up trouble, but since Prince Duan didn't listen, he didn't have to be polite.Since King Duan could know the time when he entered the palace, he must have let people go by the emperor's side, what would happen if the emperor found out?

Mu Chengyuan summoned Xuan Ming, and after explaining things like this, Xuan Ming was ordered to leave in a hurry.

Mu Chengyuan hooked his lips. It is not difficult to deal with Prince Duan who provoked troubles. What is difficult is that Ru Tie's birthday is approaching. His Royal Highness Prince Rui, who is seamlessly switching between official and private affairs, began to think hard about what to give to the concubine. What a birthday gift.

It's only been a short time since we met, his princess is already one year older, and she is seventeen this year.

This is the first birthday after marriage. In the past few days, Rutie has expressed all kinds of hints that a piece of jade is enough, a box of pearls is enough, no matter how delicious pig's trotters are, you can't eat them every day, let alone put them on your neck. Tie the red rope to learn from him on purpose...

This guy was short of writing a sentence directly on his face: Your Highness, I am waiting for your gift.

Mu Chengyuan thought it was funny when he thought about it, but he was a little worried after laughing, apart from jade, pearls and pig's trotters, he couldn't even make it himself, the wise and mighty Prince Rui really couldn't think of what to give for a while.

Pu Gonggong, who really couldn't bear to see it anymore, reminded him: "Your Highness, why don't you give the princess something you like?"

Mu Chengyuan nodded, he was right, but what does the princess like?

According to his observation, it seems to be money, food, and moths...

Mu Chengyuan despised the first two items as gifts.His Royal Highness Prince Rui thought silently, is it possible that the whole king wants to come out as a moth?
