Chapter 1458: Fraudulent accusation (wowling for monthly votes)
Shu Shu couldn't help but frown as she listened.
I thought that there would be peace for a few more years, but I didn't expect that there were now signs of overthrowing the crown prince.
This rumor is 30% true and 70% false. If people outside the palace heard it, they would think it was true.
There is a practice of whipping eunuchs, but talking about dead people is nonsense.
Is the censor just a show-off?
If the prince of a country really regards the law as child's play, what kind of stupidity will he become?
That was a scene only seen at the end of the dynasty.
The Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and this was only the second generation of emperors. Kangxi also loved his reputation. How could the palace be in such chaos?
The prince is arrogant, not mentally retarded.
How dare he behave like this when his eldest brother is watching eagerly.
"People outside made it up, and the dead people also had names and surnames. It was extremely ridiculous. It was clearly Khan Amma who ordered the execution of several people, but they were all blamed on the crown prince. It was even more boring in the Xuefang Palace. Those who agreed
They are all rewarded by Khan Ama, and even the crown prince is not qualified to directly ask for people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."
Brother Jiu said and began to think: "Who has the prince offended? Okay, how come the evil wind is blowing?"
Shu Shu said: "Did this news spread from inside the palace to outside the palace, or from outside the palace? It won't involve the Ministry of Internal Affairs, right?"
Brother Jiu was stunned and said: "I thought it had nothing to do with us, so I didn't ask about it carefully. I'll ask about it carefully tomorrow."
Shu Shu said: "I think I deliberately chose this time to spread rumors. The prince is not in the capital, and there is no way to refute the rumors. When he returns to the capital and asks people to investigate, the cleanup should be done, or a scapegoat should be found..."
Brother Jiu took a breath of air and said: "The designated point is to that direction, just like the carriage in the first month. If something happens to Hong Yu of the eldest brother's family, the murderer will point to the people over at Yuqing Palace; Yuqing
There is something going on here in the palace, and the investigation must have led to Prince Zhijun’s palace..."
Shu Shu nodded and said: "This should be the direction. Kill two birds with one stone."
It was the prince who was spread the rumor. Could it be that the emperor would not pursue the case if he knew about it?
But under the imperial power, there are all ants, and no one dares to jump around unless they find the person who takes the blame.
The method is crude, but very effective.
What will others think then?
How many people think that the eldest brother is innocent?
Just like that time in the first month of the year, the prince was so disgusted that he also made a petition to the emperor, but was the suspicion really cleared?
It's really not necessarily true. Speaking from outside, most people still blame the prince for this matter.
Brother Jiu said angrily: "These people are the ones who instigated it. They set up my eldest brother and I don't know what will happen next. When they harm my eldest brother, who knows who will be harmed next? We can't allow them to stir up trouble..."
Shu Shu supported: "Then please report to the emperor and let the emperor arrange manpower to quickly investigate the matter."
If we let this trend go unchecked, who knows whether it will trap them in the future.
It just so happens that Seventh Brother is in Beijing, so he is professional.
"Well, well, I'm going to write a book now..."
The two were talking in the study. Brother Jiu got up and went to the desk and wrote a secret note on the matter. In addition to writing down the rumors, he also wrote down his suspicions that someone was stirring up trouble behind the scenes to harm the prince.
As for killing two birds with one stone, he didn't mention it.
Otherwise, it seems like he is pointing his sword at the eldest brother.
When he arrived at the Yamen the next day, Brother Jiu sent the zhezi to the south study room and sent it to the imperial court together with the zhezi from the south study room.
Here at the Chariot and Driving Department of the Ministry of War, they always change horses but not people, and they rush to deliver the coupons within six hundred miles.
Therefore, within three days, Brother Jiu's secret message arrived in front of the emperor.
The holy chariot has arrived at Hada River Shuo.
Kangxi did not read the document, but was meeting with the internal minister to report on the investigation of the past few days.
In the tent, there were also accompanying bachelors, leading bodyguards, ministers and princes, the prince and the adult princes accompanying him.
It turns out that six days ago, the chapter sent by the court was delayed.
Kangxi ordered his ministers to check whether the delay was caused by flash floods on the road.
It is the rainy season, and if the road is damaged due to flash floods, it is a natural disaster and does not count as a fault. If it is due to other reasons, it cannot be taken lightly.
Six days later, the results of the investigation came out.
It's not a natural disaster, it's a man-made disaster.
The horses at the post station are weak. When they first left the capital, it was a short trip, three hundred miles by express, four hundred miles by express, and the speed could keep up. Now that the Holy Driver has been out of Beijing for half a month, the distance from the capital is far away, so it has been changed to six hundred miles by express.
, eight hundred miles in a hurry, the horses couldn't keep up, which delayed the delivery of this chapter.
Kangxi was extremely angry. What he feared most when traveling was being cut off from news. Every year he made his northern tour peacefully, but this year he actually caught up.
Just because I changed the direction and didn't follow the old path, the Ministry of War dared to fool me, didn't prepare the horses, and didn't choose the fat ones. This was still a place I could see. If I couldn't see the station, it would be
What kind of situation is it that I really don’t dare to think about?
Kangxi was furious and immediately ordered someone to draw up an edict.
The Minister of War, Markhan, and the left minister of the Ministry of War, Buyanu, were dismissed from their posts and retained in their posts. The right minister of the Ministry of War, Juduna, had misbehaved and was not worthy of his appointment, so he was dismissed from his posts.
The atmosphere in the tent was a bit depressing.
The Thirteenth Brother stood at the end of the prince, his face hot.
Malhan, Minister of War, his future father-in-law!
However, just by hearing this accusation, I know that the Minister of War and Zuo Shilang are the disaster of Chiyu.
The distribution of stagecoaches at the post stations and stations is under the control of the Vehicle and Driving Department of the Ministry of War.
The Chariot and Driving Department of the Ministry of War should be the responsibility of the right servant, so he would be punished the most severely.
After Kangxi got angry, he asked everyone to disperse.
Today's chapter has arrived and he has to deal with official business.
After leaving the royal tent, the Thirteenth Brother let out a breath.
Seeing this, the fourth elder brother consoled him: "Since I am staying in office, the problem is not big. I will resume my original position in three to five months."
The six departments are composed of Manchu and Han ministers, and the Manchu minister is the palm minister. Unless the emperor wants to change someone, the dismissal will not take long.
Brother Thirteen nodded.
The third elder brother was standing by and said: "The Ministry of War is amazing. They are all relatives. The minister is the father-in-law of the thirteenth brother, the left minister is the father-in-law of the fifth brother, and the right minister is the father-in-law of Prince Kang..."
The Eighth Prince followed beside him, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but think about it.
Is Khan Amma really annoyed by the delay in this chapter, or is he just using the topic to rectify the War Department Yamen?
With Fourth Brother beside him, his mind was also working rapidly.
The candidates for the Thirteenth Fujin were decided by the emperor; the appointment of Buyanu to the Ministry of War was also ordered by the emperor. Even if it was an excuse, those two people would not be dealt with this time.
Heading towards Juduna?
But even if he didn't like Juduna being in the Ministry of War, it probably wouldn't be so obvious.
Juduna's dismissal should also be temporary, and he should be transferred to another yamen later.
The fourth elder brother's expression remained unchanged as he looked at the prince and the eldest elder brother who parted ways.
It is said that emperors are suspicious, and Khan Amma is becoming more and more like an emperor.
It is not only the prince and elder brother who are on guard against this, but also the princes of the Lower Five Banners.
The fourteenth elder brother happened to bring his two younger brothers back. When he saw everyone standing here, he got off his horse and came over to greet them.
He glanced in the direction of the royal tent, still with a smile on his face.
After accepting his identity as little brother, there is nothing to complain about.
Becoming a Ding or not becoming a Ding is a watershed for the royal family.
The third elder brother looked at the no-gloomy fourteenth elder brother, then looked at the smiling fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother, and said: "The fourteenth elder brother has become the king of children, not bad, not bad, I will remember it when I return to the capital.
Take care of us Hongqing..."
The fourteenth elder brother patted his chest and said, "Put it on my brother. He is my nephew."
Seeing him like this, the fourth elder brother wanted to warn him to stop making noise near the imperial tent, but he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips.
It's not necessary. Even if I say it, my 14th brother won't listen, and he seems to be mean and meddlesome.
The fourth elder brother looked at the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother and said, "You are still young. Don't sit on the horse for too long every day. If you rub the root of your thigh, remember to ask grandma to apply medicine."
Brother Fifteen was a little shy and nodded slightly.
Brother Sixteen smiled and said: "I don't grind it now. I did it a few days ago. I just changed it to a rabbit skin mat..."
The fourth elder brother touched the little head of the sixteenth elder brother and said: "That's good. Don't worry Ama Khan and the nobles. It's just filial piety."
Brother Sixteen, with his small chest straightened out, said: "Before I went out, I told the nobles that I would listen to the words of Khan Amma and my brothers."
"Good boy..."
There is an age difference between the brothers. This one is about the same age as Honghui. The fourth brother is also more tolerant and kind.
The fourteenth elder brother was nearby, and when he saw this gesture, he almost exploded with anger.
He is indifferent to his younger brother, but he acts like a good brother to Brother Sixteen?
Don't talk about brotherly love, it's just snobbery!
Now that the sixteenth prince is a young son, Khan Amma is also interested in him, so he starts to coax people.
Being here at the age of fourteen, it is not possible to hide your emotions. This dissatisfaction fell in the eyes of the third elder brother, the eighth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother.
The third elder brother shook his fan, grinned, and felt happy.
Hey, what if you have a younger brother?
The younger brother who is holding back is better off having nothing to worry about.
The eighth prince lowered his eyes.
He didn't like the character of the Fourteenth Prince, but the Fourteenth Prince offended the Prince, and he also offended the Prince, so they might not be able to join forces.
But how to join forces, he still has to think about it.
The Fourteenth Prince has a slightly mean and cunning temperament and is also selfish. He is different from the Ninth Prince. If he wants to get closer, he has to think of a right way.
The thirteenth brother sighed inwardly.
The fourteenth elder brother is still the same, not knowing what is good or bad.
Fourth elder brother is a brother. Even if you really want to say something to him, do you have to do it in front of others?
When two brothers get along, they can't say anything, and they can be as close as they want. Do they have to show it in front of others?
But he knew that this was the nature of the fourteenth elder brother. The closer people were, the easier it was for him to pick on him...

In the imperial tent, Kangxi saw the locked secret folders, one from Ninth Prince and one from Zhao Chang, but he was not in a hurry to read them.
He still dealt with this chapter first, settling all the government affairs of the court and local areas, and then opened Zhao Chang's secret folder.
He looked at it for a quarter of an hour before putting it down and opening Brother Jiu's.
As the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ninth Prince has the right to perform secretly in secrets. However, in the past few years, Ninth Prince has not been on the secret record several times.
What's going on in Beijing?
Kangxi thought about the big and small news written by Zhao Chang, and opened the book about Ninth Prince.
The above content is not news. He just read it in Zhao Chang's booklet.
What surprised him was Brother Jiu's reaction.
Brother Ninth felt that this matter should be investigated strictly and the villain behind the scenes should be brought to justice, so as not to damage the reputation of the prince and set a bad precedent.
"If you dare to frame the prince today, you should criticize Khan Ama tomorrow. Those who have lost respect for the royal family should be found out as soon as possible and serve as a warning to others, lest the villains follow suit and ruin the atmosphere..."
"People's words are terrible. Should teahouses, restaurants and other places be ordered by the Shuntian Prefecture to prohibit arbitrary discussions about the affairs of the royal family and the royal family..."
"If there is no strict investigation, I'm afraid the other party will continue to frame the prince..."
