Chapter 351: It's time to settle accounts after the autumn
The night was very long, and uninvited guests were welcomed by the mansions of all adults. Anyone who received the news could not help but ask someone to discuss it.
To be honest, things were a bit unexpected, because no one expected things to go so quickly.
But the problem is that once such a big thing happens, it is likely to cause trouble to easily get involved. So now everyone is inquiring about the news. Only by clarifying the causes and consequences can you make a big bet based on your own position.
Even Yang Tinghe had to be cautious. People's grievances were by no means a joke. He squinted his eyes and waited for the inquiry news. These fragmented news finally turned into a whole and roughly appeared in front of him.
The problem is actually very clear. Xu Qian has made efforts, and no one has expected the direction of his efforts. Everyone originally thought that Xu Qian would definitely fight back against the case. Guo Kai thought so. As an old Xingming, his grasp of the case is extraordinary. So at this point, Guo Kai was a bit proud. Once the other party made efforts from other places, the proud Guo Kai immediately caught him off guard.
Yang Tinghe sat in his study overnight, motionless. The leaping oil lamp made his eyes a little bloody.
Of course he knew that it was actually easy to deal with this matter. As long as he exposes the so-called "second-generation official" identity of Jiang Qiang, it is naturally easy to say. But the problem is that he needs time to arrange it, and this time takes at least two to three days.
But what Yang Tinghe is most worried about is whether Xu Qian will give this time?
After all, Yang Tinghe did not participate in this matter. Everything was arranged by Guo Kai, but Yang Tinghe felt that he had underestimated it. If he had known this, there would never be such omissions.
He was silent for a moment, then coughed. Someone was waiting outside, but when he heard his cough, he hurried in and said, "What are the instructions of the master?"
Yang Tinghe immediately wrote a letter and said, "Immediately ordered someone to hand in the palace. Mao Ji was on duty tonight. I will send a letter to Mao Ji and ask him to go to the public immediately. Let the Censorate Office appoint personnel to tell Mao Ji about the inspector Shuntian Mansion. This matter is of great importance and must not be simple."
"Yes, Master. Should I hand over the note directly or in secret?"
"It doesn't matter if you send it in blatantly. It's not a thief. If something happened to the capital, as a minister of the cabinet, you should naturally assign personnel to deal with it immediately, and others have nothing to say."
"Just... this is sent overnight..."
"The situation is urgent and urgent. Don't talk too much, go."
The head of the mansion had already left, but Yang Tinghe was left. Yang Tinghe sighed. He calmed down and shook his head and whispered: "It's time for someone to enter the palace."
Someone had indeed entered the palace. That night, just when Shuntian Mansion was still surrounded by "angry" people, Xu Qian rode his horse to the Meridian Gate, and dozens of brocade guards guarded him. Xu Yong personally went to take pictures of the red lacquer gate that was several feet high. The quiet Meridian Gate at night was heard.
Such a thing naturally attracted the tension in the palace. Countless people poked their heads out from the city tower with bows and shouted: "Who are you waiting for? What a courage."
Xu Yong shouted: "Are you blind? Xu Shidu reported to the emperor for any urgent matters, and go and report it quickly."
The people on the city tower looked at each other. Xu Shidu and his name were known for a long time. At least in the personal army, everyone knew that this old man was a new celebrity or a future son-in-law of the Lu family. There were countless legends about him, such as close ministers, the Emperor's Sword from where he came from, and the male style.
Such a person wants to enter the palace overnight, so he naturally cannot refuse immediately. The person on duty on the city tower was a Qianhu of Jinwu Guard. The Qianhu smiled and hurriedly said, "It turns out to be Xu Shidu, Xu Shidu, hello, please stay for a while, so I will go to the palace to report myself."
The rapid footsteps resounded throughout the empty inner courtyard of the palace. Under the bright moon, the figures were like the wind. Those who went back quickly, followed by a few secret words, someone said: "Put down the basket immediately and ask Shi Yu to enter the palace."
Then Huang Jin's voice came: "Hurry, get ready for a quick horse."
Xu Qian went up the city tower. He was wearing official uniforms, black veil, and a solemn face. He was not polite when he saw Huang Jin and said seriously: "The official has urgent matters and wants to report to Your Majesty. Where is Your Majesty?"
Huang Jin said: "Your Majesty has moved to the warm pavilion and is waiting for Xu Shi Juan to meet him. Your Majesty has an oral order to ask Xu Shi Juan to ride over."
Xu Qian didn't say much, and got off the city tower and rode on the horse quickly. He was familiar with the warm pavilion and did not hesitate to go over. The horse's hooves stepped on the bricks and stones in the palace, making a clatter.
At this time, the East Nuan Pavilion was already brightly lit, and many guards and eunuchs had already been hunched at the door. Someone took the light and came forward to pick up Xu Qian's horse. Xu Qian jumped off the horse. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but say, "Why are you so grand today? Huh, Eunuch Zhao, aren't you a job in Cining Palace? Why are you here?"
Eunuch Zhao, who picked up the horse, said justice: "The Empress Dowager has also come."
Xu Qian nodded and said nothing. There was no news for so long, and now he entered the palace overnight. Naturally, the Queen Mother and His Majesty have been most concerned about recently. When the Queen Mother heard the news, she naturally came.
When Xu Qian walked into the pavilion, he saw Jiajing sitting on the imperial chair, and the Queen Mother was sitting by his side. Xu Qian hurriedly said, "I have met the Queen Mother and Your Majesty."
"Don't say too much. What's the matter with you entering the palace late at night?" The Queen Mother Wang was most anxious. Now that her nephew is still in Shuntian Mansion, she couldn't sleep or eat all day before she came out. She sighed for a few days. Although she was most concerned about her son, Jiajing was the emperor after all. No matter what, she would be rich and prosperous in this life. But Wang Zhu was different. Wang Zhu was her relative of the Wang family. In the future, the Wang family would continue to fall on Wang Zhu. For this matter, the Queen Mother Wang had not slept well for several days and was in no mood to do anything. She seemed to have been a few years old, especially under the shadow of the light, even the fish patterns at the corners of her eyes were deeply rooted.
Xu Qian said: "I heard of a horrifying event. Today, many people surrounded Shuntian Prefecture. The officials were afraid of the public's changes and dared not neglect them, so they came to report."
"Is that true?" Jiajing frowned, not knowing whether this matter was good or bad, so he couldn't help but stare at Xu Qian deeply and said, "Build people's changes? How could there be such a big deal? Why didn't I hear the report?"
Xu Qian said: "When I heard the news, I came immediately. This matter was too big. There were hundreds of people causing trouble, and they were panic. It was still at night. If I continue like this, I am afraid that the situation will expand."
Jiajing nodded and said, "Why do they want to surround Shuntian Mansion?"
Xu Qian said: "It seems that Jiang Qiang, a dead servant, usually does everything he wants and acts rampantly, and the prefect Guo Kai covers him up, which arouses dissatisfaction among the people."
Jiang Qiang...
Upon hearing the news, the Queen Mother couldn't help but say: "Is it the one who Zhu'er beaten to death?"
Xu Qian hurriedly said, "Yes, it's him. This person has been evil for many years. The people in the capital dare not speak out. Now that he is dead, he also heard that Lord Guo is Master Qingtian, so he came to sue one after another, just to seek justice..."
Xu Qian roughly told the matter, and the Queen Mother's eyes lit up. She finally understood what was going on. Naturally, she was not a fool. A dead servant, who would sue for nothing? How could it be easy for people to change? I am afraid that the person who fanned the flames of this incident was Xu Qian in front of him. Xu Qian was really insidious. He thought that Xu Qian went to Shuntian Mansion to personally catch people, but who knew that he had been hiding behind the scenes and doing so many things.
Someone went to find trouble for Wang Zhu and Lu Bing, but Xu Qian went to find trouble for Guo Kai and Jiang Qiang, which was just in line with the principle of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao.
The Queen Mother smiled so hard that she couldn't stop talking: "I didn't expect that Jiang Qiang was such a bad official. In this way, wouldn't my Spider Era eliminate harm for the people?"
Jiajing was also very happy. On the one hand, his authority was shaken in this matter. On the other hand, the Queen Mother sighed every day. As a son, she was also extremely depressed. Now that she heard the news, she naturally knew that Xu Qian had already taken action, and this move was very beautiful. When the fire was burned, things obviously had a look.
He couldn't help but say, "So what should we do next?"
Xu Qian said seriously: "This matter is of great importance. The emperor's feet have caused such a thing. What do people in the world think about it? The right and wrong are not yet determined. Whether it is a troublemaker or a grievance, it must be thoroughly investigated before it can be clear. Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to immediately order the imperial envoy to control the factory guards and thoroughly investigate the matter. If the people make trouble, they will naturally investigate it to the end and punish them severely. If any official is really neglecting his duties and sheltering violent officials, he should also deal with the officials involved in order to calm the public's grievances."
Jiajing immediately understood, Xu Qian’s meaning was very clear - the time to settle the accounts after autumn... it was!
Jiajing couldn't help but get excited. He glanced at the corner of his eyes. Seeing that the Queen Mother was eager to try, he knew that the Queen Mother also understood Xu Qian's meaning and knew his mother's plan. He stood up and his face flushed and seemed a little excited. He said word by word: "You are right. This matter is of great importance. I must order an imperial envoy to find out the matter to calm the public's grievances."
He walked back and forth in the warm trunk with his hands behind his back and forth with energy on his body. After a long time, he raised his eyes and said word by word: "Application..."
