Chapter 2357 The mainstay of the coup(1/2)
Xu Jie, this is a familiar but far away name.
Three years ago, Xu Jie resigned and returned to Songjiang Prefecture. Later, his family was confiscated and removed from his home for destroying dikes and flooding fields. Only then did the world realize that the world-renowned virtuous prime minister was actually an absolute corrupt official.
Nowadays, not to mention that Xu Jie has long left the political arena, but now he is an infamous person. Naturally, he will not be mentioned again, and he will be gradually forgotten by everyone.
But I never thought that the "nacceptance" written by Xu Jie himself appeared here, which was both very surprising and a bit bizarre.
After all, Xu Jieyuan is a common understanding in Songjiang Mansion. Now what he wrote appears in the hands of the eldest princess, and it seems that it is really incomprehensible.
this……
Chen Yiqin was unable to be fully affirmed by Xu Jie's handwriting. Now that the eldest princess asked this, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at Lin Qingran for help.
"Yes, Xu Jie and the eldest princess have no intersection. This letter was clearly written by the eldest princess!" Zhang Fu knew very well that this was their last glimmer of vitality, so he immediately stood up to support him.
Lin Xuran didn't expect that the eldest princess was still quibbling, so she said coldly to Wang Xilie behind her: "Sir Wang, do you still want to hide it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Guo Pu and others' eyes gathered on Wang Xilie, but there was a hint of clue from Wang Xilie's panicked expression.
Although the eldest princess and Xu Jie really seem to have no intersection, it is even more impossible for the eldest princess to have such outstanding calligraphy and talent, so this false will must have been written by Xu Jie.
After hearing Lin Weiran's words, Wang Xilie immediately knew that the whole matter could no longer be hidden.
At this moment, he finally realized that Lin Shiran sent the men in black to control his family, which was not only a naked threat to him, but also a desire to control Xu Jie who was hiding in his home.
But I have to admit that even though my teacher was the most politically intelligent politician in the Ming Dynasty, he was still a little different from this evil figure.
Earlier, he was simply shocked by lard, and Xu Jie was defeated as the chief minister. Now that he has been stripped of his post as a people, how can he defeat Lin Weiran?
Facing the eyes of everyone, Wang Xilie immediately kowtowed to the ground and said: Lord Yuanfu, Lord Second Assistant, Xu Jie sneaked into the capital with the Princess' convoy last month. He has been hiding in Xiaguan's house for some time and conspiring to forge the will.
!The Xiaguan originally took him in with the teacher and student, but he didn't want to be forced to do his job for him. However, the Xiaguan had no intention of participating in the forgery of the will from beginning to end, and asked Lord Yuan Fu, Lord Su Fu to investigate clearly!
”
Lin Weiran listened to the ploping sound around him and knew that the victory was decided.
Although he hates speculative politicians like Wang Xilie, after the situation reverses, such people often change their camps and become a weapon to kill the enemy on their own side.
Now with Wang Xilie's accusation, not only did the lies of the eldest princess and the other two be smashed in one fell swoop, but Xu Jie can also be used to deal with this accusation.
When Guo Pu and others saw that Wang Xilie not only pleaded guilty, but also confessed to Xu Jie, they also let go of their hearts. At the same time, they looked up at the three people who were intending to forge the will.
"It's over!"
When Zhang Fu saw Wang Xilie confessing to forging the will, he immediately closed his eyes regretfully, knowing that he was not far from his death.
"what to do?"
Concubine Li did not think too deeply about the matter, but realized that the matter was extremely unfavorable to her, so she turned her head and looked at the eldest princess with help.
"That's damn!"
The eldest princess originally planned to bite to death and refuse to admit the forgery of the will, but she did not expect that Xu Jie's proud disciple Wang Xilie would bite him back, and she couldn't help but clench her fists angrily and cursed.
"Princess, Xu Jie is now in Wang Xilie's mansion. Do you still want to continue to argue?" Although Chen Yiqin was shocked that Xu Jie was actually the mastermind behind the scenes, he continued to put pressure on the princess.
The eldest princess faced Chen Yiqin's step-by-step pressing, and tears oozed out of her forehead, but she still tried to separate her relationship and said, "Even if Xu Jie was in Wang Xilie's mansion, what does this have to do with this princess?"
this……
When Guo Pu heard that the eldest princess was still struggling, he found that the princess was really desperate to be unable to Huanghe. So he turned his head helplessly and looked at Lin Weiran next to him.
The truth has been revealed when the matter has come to this point. It was Xu Jie who planned it behind the scenes and then executed it by the princess, which led to the farce of forging the will tonight.
"Princess, you can deny that you have never had any contact with Xu Jie! It's just that when the handwriting is compared, it's not your turn to refuse to admit it, and you all have to bear the corresponding guilt for forging the will!" Chen Yiqin raised the
A false will was said with a righteous expression.
As long as it is confirmed that this handwriting was from Xu Jie, not only will Xu Jie, who is hiding behind the scenes, will be pushed to the guillotine, but Concubine Li, Princess and Zhang Fu, who have just committed perjury, cannot escape the blame.
"Responsibility?"
Concubine Li finally realized that she might also be implicated by the forged will, and she couldn't help but murmured in panic on her face.
cough!
It was at this moment that a cough suddenly came from the Donghunting Pavilion, which made everyone present stand on the spot, and then turned their heads to look at Longqing on the dragon bed.
Everyone just believed the imperial physician's diagnosis and thought Longqing had become a living dead person, but they didn't expect that they seemed to be living now.
"emperor!"
Concubine Li realized that Long Qing might have woken up, and as if she had caught the last straw, she immediately cried and called out.
"master!"
Zhang Fu knew that only Long Qing could save him now, and no matter how he was wrong about falsely circulating the imperial edict or forging the imperial edict, he immediately rushed to Long Bed.
"Emperor...Brother!"
The eldest princess turned around and walked towards the dragon bed, thinking that she and Longqing did not have much brother-sister relationship, but she couldn't help but stop.
cough……
Longqing coughed again, but there was a clear breath on his face and his eyes were still closed, but his eyelashes moved clearly.
"Imperial Doctor!" Lin Qingran was much calmer. When he realized that Long Qing was not dead yet, he immediately asked the Imperial Doctor to come forward to check on Long Qing's condition.
Although the two imperial physicians had long ruled that Longqing could not be rescued, they were forced to Lin Qingran's authority, and Longqing had just had a cough, so they hurried forward to rescue him.
"Concubine Li, please give in and let the imperial physician treat it!" Lin Qingran knew that this was not the time to be humble, so he stood up and presided over the overall situation.
Seeing that Long Qing was not alive, he stopped crying. He thought that he might be responsible for his crime, so he twitched from the side.
"Princess, you have nothing to do here. You should go back and rest!" Lin Qingran looked at the princess standing in front of the bed and immediately expelled the tunnel.
The eldest princess felt the power of Lin Shiran. She originally wanted to show off her princess airs, but when she saw Lin Shiran's sharp gaze, she immediately looked like a deflated ball.
"Please!" Tang Suer didn't like the restless eldest princess very much, so she stepped forward and made an invitation.
The eldest princess found that Queen Chen was looking at her indifferently. Although she knew that she had no chance to turn the tables when she left now, she had no right to ask Lin Weiran and Queen Chen to challenge, so she had to leave in shame.
As for Zhang Fu, just Lin Qingran's look, Chen Hong asked someone to bet Zhang Fu.
Lin Qingran drove some idle people out of the East Nuan Pavilion, and then looked at Longqing on the bed.
The two imperial physicians tried their best to save Longqing, but the medicine soup they made could not be fed in at all, and Longqing's esophagus had been closed.
Doctor Li tried to inject a few times, and finally shook his head slightly at Lin Qiran, and then stood aside with another doctor down.
"Concubine Li, please go back to Chengxi Palace for the time being. The matter here will be handled by the queen and our cabinet!" Lin Weiran looked at Concubine Li who was sad, and drove the woman away without mercy.
When things came to this point, Longqing did not enthrone the emperor's legitimate son as the crown prince. As a mature politician, he cannot leave the enemy with a chance to turn the tables, but instead drives away all the unstable people.
Concubine Li felt Lin Fengran's indifference and knew that she would definitely bear the blame for forging the will. Tears burst out like a dam.
cough……
Long Qing suddenly coughed, his eyes opened slowly, and he looked at everything in front of him in a daze.
"emperor!"
When Concubine Li saw that Longqing finally woke up, her desire to survive seemed even stronger than before, so she immediately rushed towards Longqing and cried.
Longqing, who had just woken up, felt an inexplicable emotion when he saw Concubine Li crying for him so sadly, and his lips also opened their eyes hard, as if calling for "Concubine Li".
When Queen Chen and others learned that Long Qing had woken up, they also stepped forward one after another, but they knew that Long Qing was just a reflection of his life this time.
"Jun'er, hurry up, come here!" Concubine Li suddenly called Zhu Yijun loudly, then pulled Zhu Yijun in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, you said you wanted to pass the throne to Jun'er, you said,
Tell me quickly!”
this……
Guo Pu and Chen Yiqin glared at each other and found that Lin Shiran had just intended to drive this woman away, but he didn't expect that this woman would still have trouble at this time.
"No, you can just blink your eyes, just blink your eyes!" Concubine Li realized that Long Qing was already extremely weak, so she hurriedly changed her method again.
"Concubine Li, stop making trouble here, drag her out!" Lin Yanran's face darkened, and he gave an order to Tang Suer and Feng Bao.
Tang Suer and Feng Bao also ignored the identity of Concubine Li and immediately joined forces to drag Concubine Li away.
Concubine Li was unwilling to be at the mercy of Lin Qiran, but struggled hard. After the light of her eyes suddenly saw Long Qing on the bed closed for a moment, she said loudly with great excitement: "The emperor blinked, the emperor blinked, he agreed to Youyi
My son inherits the throne!"
"Concubine Li, don't challenge the bottom line of this palace!" Empress Chen secretly regretted her earlier tolerant performance, and immediately warned Concubine Li, who was still making trouble.
Feng Bao and Tang Suer felt the anger of Queen Chen and knew that they could no longer let Concubine Li make trouble here, so they worked together to carry the person out.
After driving Concubine Li away, Lin Qingran and others also stood in front of the bed and looked at the emperor who had run out of energy.
Longqing tried hard to open his eyes, but he felt strongly that his life had dried up. Looking at the familiar faces in front of the bed, he couldn't help but think of his past.
He was the prince of this dynasty since he was born, but he was not welcomed by his father since he was a child, and he had never even met his father several times.
Even if his prince's brother passed away, as the living eldest son, he still did not receive the care of his father, and his father seemed to have no son of himself at all.
Because his younger brother King Jing's mother was favored and his qualifications were far better than his stupid self, it has been rumored that his father wanted to pass the throne to his younger brother, which made him fall into panic for a long time.
It was not until his younger brother, King Jing, passed away and became the only living prince of his father, that he did not feel so anxious, but he was still cautious in his actions.
With the death of the father, whom he rarely met, although he did not have the title of prince, he naturally became the emperor of this dynasty.
