Chapter 703
When he first heard this punishment, he was really shocked. He didn't expect that Lin Yuzhu would usually look gentle and gentle, but could think of such a cruel punishment.
In the past, he thought that Lingchi was cruel to execute him, but after learning about what Xie Kaiqian did, he really felt that the punishment for Lingchi was tailor-made for Xie Kaiqian.
Although many of those who died in vain have nothing to do with him, as a flesh and blood person, he still wants to do something for those who died in vain.
At least let them leave with peace of mind.
Xie Kaiqian had never heard of Ling Chi's punishment for death, and laughed and said, "What's the matter with just saying hello to grandpa! If grandpa frowned, he wouldn't be raised by his mother."
The second prince listened calmly to Xie Kaiqian saying this with great ambition, put down the dagger in his hand and said, "Since you said that, I will start. I will cut off the flesh on your body piece by piece. Don't worry, the butcher I invited is very skillful and will definitely die after the last piece of flesh on your body is cut off. I know that you will not talk about the transaction between you and Concubine Xian, and I don't expect you to say it now."
He wanted to see Xie Kaiqian so much that he felt so painful now.
The butcher who invited the execution was indeed very skillful. The first piece of meat she cut was Xie Kaiqian's right arm, which was hung up. When the first piece of meat was cut off, Xie Kaiqian howled in pain.
The second prince said lightly: "Aren't you raised by your mother?"
Xie Kaiqian couldn't help but explain when the butcher cut the third knife.
The second prince, who received the specific news, went straight to the palace.
The emperor was still waiting for him to report his life, so he wanted to tell the emperor what he learned.
Then he arrived at the Eighth Prince's Mansion.
He knew that Lin Yuzhu also wanted to know the result.
In the room, Lin Yuzhu kept Zhang Bihua and the children in order to avoid suspicion.
Chiao and Chihiro were playing well.
Zhang Bihua and the wet nurse sat not far away with the child in their arms.
The second prince had a serious expression. After Xie Kaiqian learned everything that Xianfei had done, he felt very heavy.
Lin Yuzhu personally made tea for the second prince and said, "Is there a fruit in Huayulou?"
She knew about Xie Kaiqian, and thought that something must have been interrogated.
The second prince nodded heavily and said, "I came here to tell you that the medicine shop and restaurant can be reopened. Also, Huayulou and Xianfei are involved very much. Xie Kaiqian has already confessed the transaction with Xianfei. In addition, he also gave a list of ministers who defected to Xianfei."
"The list of ministers is direct evidence!" Lin Yuzhu was a little excited. She knew that the emperor had never stopped collecting evidence.
The second prince nodded, but sighed long, "Things are not as simple as you think. Do you know how many officials of the seventh rank or above in the court have been bribed by the virtuous concubine?"
Seeing that the second prince looked bad, Lin Yuzhu began to worry in her heart, thinking that there were many people who were bribed.
But he asked worriedly: "How many are there."
"Most half, most of the officials above the seventh rank in the court bought them for Concubine Xian. If the emperor hadn't been worried about the emperor's recent actions, I'm afraid that Concubine Xian would have already had the intention of rebellion."
He didn't expect things to be so serious.
But those officials were important officials in the court and could not be replaced all of them for a while.
Lin Yuzhu probably understood what the second prince was worried about.
She quickly thought about how to solve it, and soon she had an idea: "Actually, this problem is easy to solve."
She felt that the most important thing in this country was military power. Now the military power is still in the hands of her own people. The fourth prince was guarding the west, and Yan Li and others were in the south. Now the second prince is responsible for the safety of the palace and the imperial city, so the civil and military officials in the court could not make any waves.
The second prince knew that Lin Yuzhu had many ways, so he urged Lin Yuzhu to say, "What's the Eighth Princess?"
Lin Yuzhu said seriously: "Just replace those deeply involved officials. The officials in the court have a clear monthly salary. Why don't your father take the opportunity to check these officials who surrender on the grounds of investigating corruption? In addition, the father can also give officials who are forced to join a chance to correct their mistakes. Concubine Xian is now under house arrest in the palace and cannot convey information to the outside world. Now is the best opportunity. There will be no spring test next year. Since these officials don't understand who is the master, then replace it."
What Tianyuan Kingdom lacks the most is talent.
In fact, Hanwen Academy has many young talents, and these people are full of knowledge.
The second prince was silent, sitting quietly, thinking about the possibilities Lin Yuzhu said.
After a while, the second prince stood up and said, "Thank you, the Eighth Princess. I will tell my father what you said just now."
Lin Yuzhu personally sent the second prince away.
She proposed to replace these ministers with selfish intentions, and she wanted to pave the way for Qianyu.
If she had the right guess, she would probably take over the throne when Qianhe was an adult, and Qianhe would definitely not be able to control the old ministers in the court.
Instead of doing this, it is better to accept more young talents in.
Furthermore, it is also a good thing for those who can eradicate the virtuous concubine.
Qianyu walked slowly with Lin Yuzhu's hand, raised his head and said, "Mom, I have heard all the words you said to the Second Emperor. You are planning for me."
He didn't stay in the palace for so long. He was learning how to govern the country and how to recognize people's hearts.
Lin Yuzhu smiled and rubbed Qianyu's head, and said gently: "Our Qianyu's brain is smart. My mother does have such selfish intentions. Do you think! The important officials in the court are arrogant and are involved with Concubine Xian. It would be much better if they could change some new people in. Concubine Xian is now being confined and will not be released in a short time. After she is released, she found that there are unfamiliar faces in the court, and she probably can't make any big fuss."
Qianyu was very worried: "Do you think Grandpa will agree?"
Lin Yuzhu thought of the emperor, that was a smart person.
He smiled and said, "Your emperor will agree. You must remember this sentence. Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world!"
Qianyu immediately said: "Mom, I understand that if I become the emperor, I will definitely work diligently and love the people and be a good emperor."
Lin Yuzhu was very relieved and couldn't help but smile.
Qianxun ran up at this time, and grabbed Lin Yuzhu's hand and said, "Mom, what are you talking about with your brother!"
Lin Yuzhu smiled and said, "Your brother and I are talking about whether we should find you a teacher nanny."
The smile on Chihiro's face froze instantly, and he pouted aggrievedly and said, "My mother and brother are good or bad, you know how to bully me."
The teaching nanny is so terrible!
She didn't want to teach the nanny, she was so fierce.
