Chapter 121 I’ve been waiting for you for a long time "Qingzhi?" Emperor Jiajing was stunned. Jiang Yuan said, "Today I went to see Chen Pin about this. At first he denied it, but later I called the official from the Ministry of Rites who accompanied him yesterday to testify, and he finally confessed the truth." As for why he denied it... Chen Pin was a surrendered person, and Jiang Qingzhi was a young and powerful person who was extremely popular. How could he dare to offend this person? The logical chain is self-consistent. And the main point is that it leaves Jiang Qingzhi speechless. You say it is slander, but do you have any evidence? Zhu Xizhong sneered, "Where's the evidence?" Jiang Yuan sighed, "I have long known that Lord Changqing is colluding with grassland smugglers."
Zhu Xizhong was furious, "You bastard, you are talking nonsense!" He bowed to Emperor Jiajing and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to arrest Jiang Yuan for the crime of framing him." Jiang Yuan smiled bitterly, "Duke Cheng, those two smugglers are now in the capital." Zhao Wenhua said: "What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true. Otherwise..." He glanced at Emperor Jiajing. The Jiajing Emperor was unexpectedly calm and asked Chang Wei Bo to come to the palace to defend himself. Yes, Emperor Jiajing trusted this cousin very much, and this was giving him a chance to turn the tables. Cui Yuan glanced at Zhao Wenhua, who smiled and nodded, indicating that everything was under control. Not long after, Jiang Qingzhi's complaints were heard outside the hall. "It's a nice autumn day, and I'm just about to go out of town for a picnic. What big deal could there be in the court? It's nothing serious..." All the ministers in the palace were stunned. A fierce look flashed in Emperor Jiajing's eyes and he clenched his right fist. When Huang Jin saw this, he thought, it's already this late, and you still have the mind to go on a picnic. Jiang Qingzhi came in and saluted. Emperor Jiajing said coldly: "Someone has impeached you for smuggling the Altan tribe. Is that true?" Jiang Qingzhi was stunned, "Who the hell slandered me?" "Etiquette! Chang Wei Bo, pay attention to your etiquette!" the censor on duty today shouted. "They've put the blame on me, and you're still talking about etiquette... Who is it?" Jiang Qingzhi turned his eyes and stared at Zhao Wenhua, "You bastard, is it you?" Zhao Wenhua looked at Emperor Jiajing with a wry smile. Your Majesty, please take care of your cousin!
Jiang Yuan stepped forward and said, "It's you, my subordinate." Jiang Qingzhi came over and said, "I just slapped Altan twice in Datong, and you accused me of smuggling grassland?" Jiang Yuan raised his head, "The evidence is irrefutable..." Before he finished speaking, Jiang Qingyi punched Jiang Yuan hard on the nose. Zhu Xizhong saw that Jiang Yuan's nose suddenly deflated and blood spurted out like crazy. "stop!" The Imperial Censor on Duty was furious, "Your Majesty, I request that Chang Weibo be arrested and severely punished." Emperor Jiajing's face turned pale, "Why don't you stop?" Jiang Qingzhi then turned around, looking angry, "Your Majesty, this man framed me." "I have evidence." Jiang Yuan was unexpectedly a tough guy. He covered his nose and pointed at Jiang Qingzhi, "The two smugglers have been arrested and are outside the palace." This was premeditated. Jiang Qingzhi glanced at Yan Song. Old Yan looked at him with a sigh, as if he was an elder looking at a disappointing younger generation. "Question." Emperor Jiajing ordered. The two smugglers had no willpower to endure the torture, and before the Jinyiwei could take action, they told the whole story. "Your Majesty, Jia Qian, who is in charge of smuggling in the Changwei Marquis's Mansion, insisted that he was the only one who did it." Lu Bing came and glanced at Jiang Qingzhi. Jia Qian is actually a good comrade? Jiang Qingzhi felt that he had made a mistake. "However, the two grassland merchants confessed that they had been supplying goods to the Changwei Palace." Everyone looked at Jiang Qingzhi. Jiang Qingzhi sighed, "It's just buying some live cattle from the grassland. Who among you doesn't eat beef? Maybe the beef you eat is bought from my store. By the way, my store grades the beef, isn't that convenient?" Inside the hall, more than a dozen ministers nodded subconsciously. One older person even blurted out, "How convenient." After he finished speaking, the old man realized that he had made a mistake. "Your Majesty forgive me." "Ming dynasty law..." Jiang Yuan, a tough guy, blocked his nostrils with a cloth ball and said in a muffled voice: "Slaughtering oxen..." "Is that a plowing ox?" Jiang Qingzhi looked at him like a fool. Zhu Xizhong thought about it and said, yes! "That's beef cattle." Zhu Xizhong said, "Which powerful official in the capital hasn't eaten it? Stop pretending. Yes, I'm talking about you. You're using chicken feathers as a token of authority. Who is instructing you to frame Chang Wei Bo?"
Old Zhu and Jiang Qingzhi were sworn brothers, beheading chickens and burning yellow paper. In this era, such sworn brothers were not plastic flowers in later generations. If Jiang Qingzhi really needed money, he would ask Zhu Xizhong for tens of thousands of yuan. Zhu Xizhong would definitely not blink an eye. "Yes! Those are beef cattle from the grassland. Does they have anything to do with the Ming Dynasty?" someone muttered, then lowered his voice, "The graded beef is really delicious." Smuggling live cattle will at most be punished with a reprimand. The tables have turned. Zhao Wenhua lowered his head with a mocking look in his eyes. This is just the beginning! Jiang Yuan said, "Your Majesty, Chang Wei's family's business of smuggling live cattle is getting bigger and bigger. People are always looking for profit, and there is no end to it. So Chang Wei took the opportunity to go to Datong and realized that Chen Pin had the intention to surrender, so he wanted to use him to smuggle grasslands... Your Majesty, Jiang Qingzhi should be severely punished!" boom! The court was in an uproar. Yan Song glanced at Zhao Wenhua with admiration in his eyes: My dear, you really have some good methods. They first used the smuggling of live cattle to lure in Jiang Qingzhi, and just when Jiang Qingzhi thought it was no big deal, they used it to expose Jiang Qingzhi's motive for smuggling grassland. An impeccable chain of logic is closed. "Please summon Chen Pin into the palace." Jiang Yuan said. "That's a good idea." The ministers agreed. Jiang Qingzhi and Zhu Xizhong stood side by side, looking particularly lonely. "Qingzhi, this matter..." Zhu Xizhong whispered, "If there is any, you and I brothers will take action later. Well, I will beat Chen Pin up and muddy the waters. While the waters are muddy, you should quickly cover up the matter..." "Good brother." Jiang Qingzhi felt a little warm in his heart and whispered, "This must be the trick of Yan Song and others. However, it reminds me that smuggling is a good business." "You..." Zhu Xizhong was stunned. "Doing business is not shameful." Jiang Qingzhi tried to make fun of the situation. "Fuck! That's the enemy of Ming Dynasty." "I am doing business, why would I do it at a loss?" Jiang Qingzhi said. What is impossible to accomplish by military means is easy to accomplish by commercial means. Chen Pin is here. "His Majesty." Chen Pin saluted and Jiang Yuan explained the situation. Chen Pin glanced at Jiang Qingzhi with fear in his eyes. He would definitely be retaliated against after reporting Jiang Qingzhi. Don't disbelieve it, just look at Zhu Xizhong's eyes, the murderous intent is so materialized. Yan Song suddenly had a doubt: why was Zhu Xizhong, such a seasoned man, so caring and devoted to Jiang Qingzhi?
He didn't know that the two were brothers who beheaded chickens and burned yellow paper, and he thought Zhu Xizhong's behavior was a little strange. "Your Majesty is here, just speak." Jiang Yuan said loudly. He even gave Jiang Qingzhi a sneer. Come on, get on with it! Let the Ming Dynasty's rulers and ministers see your domineering image, Jiang Qingzhi. Jiang Qingzhi suddenly sighed, "You guys wanted to frame me, but didn't you do your homework beforehand?" Jiang Yuan sneered, "Don't avoid it, Long Wei Bo." Jiang Qingzhi said, "You are really stupid. Altan Khan's envoys have always been death warriors. When I first met Chen Pin in Datong, I saw his calmness in his eyes. What does it mean that a person knows that he is going to die but is still calm?" Jiang Yuan sneered. "It means he has a reason to die. I bet that Chen Pin's family is his weak spot. If he dares to surrender, Altan will make his family suffer a fate worse than death." Jiang Qingzhi took out the medicinal cigarette and was about to light it when he remembered that this was the court. He laughed dryly and put away the firewood. "Chen Pin was able to face death calmly, which shows how much he loves his family. A person who is willing to die for his family suddenly becomes a spineless person. This is more fickle than an eel. What do you think... what about you, Chen Pin!" As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Pin suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the throne. The ministers were watching the fun. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that ever since Emperor Jiajing expressed his trust in Jiang Qingzhi, there had been several undercurrents in the court. Again, suspicion is the emperor's brother. And the emperor's trust is pitifully small. If it is given to Jiang Qingzhi, others will have none. The Yan Party was the first to be hit and suffered heavy losses. Lu Bing. Even Huang Jin... Although none of this trouble was caused by Jiang Qingzhi, but if you wear the crown, you must bear its weight. The emperor's trust is a double-edged sword. If you accept it, you will also accept the envy, jealousy and hatred that come with it. And, a constant stream of enemies and troubles. Therefore, all the ministers knew that there must be a reason behind today's drama. The people behind the scenes are nothing more than those few. But if you want to ask who is willing to speak up for Jiang Qingzhi, I'm sorry, I'd rather die than let my fellow Taoist die! Helping Jiang Qingzhi means offending those undercurrents. Who has nothing better to do than to do that? Just watch the excitement. The other party had a careful plan, dragging Jiang Qingzhi into the pit step by step, and was about to bury him alive... Chen Pin suddenly jumped up.
Moreover, just after Jiang Qingzhi said that. Chen Pin suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the throne. This was a mutation that no one expected. The assassination of kings is not uncommon throughout history, both in China and abroad. For example, Jing Ke assassinated Qin. But there has never been such an exciting thing in the Ming Dynasty. The ministers were stunned. The samurai who were pretending to be so arrogant in the hall were stunned. The incident happened suddenly and everyone watched Chen Pin rush towards Emperor Jiajing. A fierce look flashed in Emperor Jiajing's eyes. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late. He subconsciously clenched the jade in his hand and smashed it over. Bah! His aim was good and he hit Chen Pin right in the chest. But it's no use. Chen Pin came quickly. When he was two steps away, he leaped up. Open your arms. Once he hugged Emperor Jiajing, he could bite him to death even with his teeth. "His Majesty!" Huang Jin reacted and screamed. The warriors reacted and rushed over with golden pumpkins for show. But it was too late. Just as Emperor Jiajing was about to fight Chen Pin, he saw a figure flash by. Just a kick. Chen Pin was kicked out. The person came and stood still. He took out the medicinal incense and the firewood that was forbidden to be used in the palace, bent his head and blew over the firewood to light the medicinal incense. Take a deep breath. Smiled at Chen Pin.
He exhaled a puff of medicinal smoke. He flicked the ash off his cigarette and said: "Ben has been waiting for you for a long time." …… The fourth update is here. (End of this chapter)
