Vol 5 Chapter 146: The End of the Gu Family (middle)

When Grandpa Gu heard about the Three Corpse Insects, he knew that Gu was over this time.
For that matter, when the emperor asked Princess Sui'an, he couldn’t help being stunned: "Your Majesty, the criminal officials know nothing about it! Even this incident of the three corpses is the ignorance of the stupid women who kept the secret from the criminal officials. for!"
The result of a thorough investigation by the Imperial City Division showed that the three corpses in Gu Jue's hands were indeed from the family, but it was true that the old lady Gu did not know about it.
But it was Gu Jue's mother-in-law and other female relatives who conspired to prepare it for her.
Chunjia also believes that Mrs. Gu is being concealed. The main reason is that Mrs. Gu’s meticulousness. Even if the girls in the clan are to use the three corpses to plot the future mistress, the figure of the mistress has not been set at this moment. What should I do if I bring things to Gu Jue into the palace, even if Gu Jue doesn’t turn back the water and asks others to find it out?
It's hard to wait for Gu Jue to be a serious side room and have a good relationship with the mistress. Everyone does not doubt that she will play secretly again from time to time.
But none of this concealed that Old Madam Gu, as the current head of the Gu family, must bear the consequences for the actions of the tribe.
Chunjia questioned for a long time, and the old man Gu insisted that Gu had nothing to do with the infertility of the princess Sui'an: "His Royal Highness Yunan has a good relationship with the concubine and the concubine. If it is Gu's work, why should he let the cloud go? His Royal Highness An? Even if Zheng Fuma is not the noble concubine’s brother, but if His Royal Highness Yun’an has long sleeves and Shanwu, if he is standing on the noble concubine’s side, the assistance to the noble concubine will be even higher than that of Sui’an. And the Jinxi Princess under the knee of His Royal Highness Yun’an. , And even promised to the imperial concubine’s nephew. It can be seen how good your Royal Highness and the imperial concubine are. Although Gu has never been in harmony with the imperial concubine, he has never thought of harming the royal family... Please see your majesty carefully and give Gu’s innocence!"
The emperor felt that he didn't seem to be cheating. He thought about it, but he didn't get the penalty. Instead, he called Yin Qu, Deng Chengzhai and other nearby officials to discuss the matter: "I have been thinking about Sui'an back then, but after many years, But there is still no clue... Now the Gu family is quite suspicious, but the few in charge have vowed to deny it, and they don't seem to be pretending to be fake... How can it be?"
Yin Qu and others have long forgotten about Sui'an. At this moment, listening to the emperor mentions it, they must first flatter the emperor’s love for the first emperor’s own flesh and blood, and then tactfully say that the Gu family is prosperous, but there is no successor. Old Mrs. Gu has been worried about the future of the family all day long, and it is not impossible to say that he does not know the sins committed by the younger generation.
And since it was Gu's work, the old lady didn't know, is it still not clear to the people below?
So just torture the people underneath directly.
In fact, the emperor planned to do the same, but he was a benevolent emperor. He has been a benevolent concubine for many years. He has recently abandoned Gu Zhen. Some people have nothing to say in the face of the evidence of the imperial concubine and the imperial heir. Instinctively suspected that the emperor spoiled his wife.
Coupled with the Gu's contribution to the country, Long Pinghou was a military horse for half his life. Before he could return to the capital to reunite with his wife and children, he was assassinated and died.
Chunjia has a good face and doesn't want to be too mean.
At the moment, the most powerful courtiers all agreed, and he then agreed to torture everyone in the Gu family.
There are no outstanding talents among Gu's descendants, but there is no way that they can withstand the methods in prison.
It took only three or two days to confess everything that should or shouldn't be said.
Including but not limited to the eight princes of the year, the targeting and precautions against the benevolent empress dowager over the years, the supervision and suspicion of the Xie family...
Chunjia was prepared when he gave the order. After all, how could this kind of long-standing family be not dirty?
Rao was so angry, and his face was pale!
If there were other considerations about whether to punish the Gu family, I didn't want to delay the least at this moment.
Even Gu Jue didn't want to let it go. This kind of girl who came out of a family of pickled people, no matter how dignified, virtuous, considerate and considerate, no matter how the prodigal son turned around, how could he rest assured to leave people beside King Qin?
Especially his eldest son is not the master of many cities, who knows if he will turn his head and be deceived?
"Your Majesty, after all, the Gu clan is the family of the abolished Gu clan, and Long Pinghou has contributed to the country." Yun Fenghuang inquired about this movement, his heart was ecstatic, but on the surface he was still pretending to persuade him, "It's good to just blame the first for evil." , But there is no need to kill them all."
Chunjia had made up his mind. He just smiled and said: "A Huang is devoted to the fetus. There is me in the previous dynasty."
This is to decline the imperial concubine's proposal.
Yun Fenghuang's heart was clear, but he pretended not to hear it, smiled and agreed, and immediately changed the subject, leading him to say something interesting about his children.
She was gloating at the Gu family here. The emperor went back to the front, and Yin Qu sent a message on the hind foot, saying that it was the prison to torture the Gu family. Some things were found to be related to Xie Wuzheng, and it is suspected that Gu family left the key. I've always been in Xuanqing Palace, but under severe punishment, where can I take care of it? Everything is said.
Yun Fenghuang couldn't help frowning: "What are these things?"
To know that it is just some ordinary corruption and illegal acts, and some big households in Yanzhou, and found an excuse to kill and confiscated other big households, etc., it is a long sigh of relief.
She knows Chunjia very well, no, it should be said that the former Nengjun had such a characteristic: as long as it was not for the crimes that would shake the royal rule, such as treason, they would actually have a high tolerance.
Even very satisfied that the courtier has such a defect.
Because it means good control, even pulling out at critical moments, killing or degrading, it's all smoothly.
Even an honest official who is neither greedy nor abused is a good reputation anyway.
The most annoying thing is actually the kind of saintly subordinates.
auzw.com Xie Wuzheng did these things, resting on officials from low births who wanted to climb up, and it's not common anymore.
Not to mention that he still has a cousin named Yun Fenghuang as a backer. Even if he doesn’t, Chunjia sees his talents and doesn’t really affect the people at the bottom. It’s just that those big households with unclean foundations will not be directly involved. What about him.
I have to wait for someone to do my best for him for more than ten or twenty years. It's useless, and then turn over the old accounts.
The imperial concubine calmed down and said: "My palace knows, I thanked Yin Shangshu on my behalf."
Seeing that the visitor didn't mean to leave, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "What else?"
"If you return to the empress, my lord said, knowing these crimes is not a big deal." The visitor hesitated and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that you can take care of the aftermath without the empress. It's just that the East Palace has not been established for a day. These things are not bad. It won't be a flaw, so I ask my mother to make a plan early."
"Besides, there is one more word from your lord, which is quite hesitating."
Yun Fenghuang said in amazement: "Yin Shangshu and this palace have been friends with each other for many years, so what can't be said?"
"My lord said that Master Fuwang and Master Ari are getting older, and the maiden should support them a little bit more. There is no need to blindly favor and thank the consort. After all, the consort has been enough for the past few years."
It’s no wonder that Yin Qu will hesitate. After all, Yun Fenghuang and Xie’s children belong to the Xie’s internal affairs. He is an outsider, implying that Yun Fenghuang will support his nephew in the future, and don’t just promote Xie Wuzheng, even vaguely. She was guarded against the meaning of Xie Wuzheng, and she was suspected of straying a family.
"But what else does Yin Shangshu know?" Yun Fenghuang frowned subconsciously when he heard the words, but quickly eased, and asked softly, "Although it is said that, Yin Shangshu is a good for the palace after all, is it possible for this palace? Don't you believe him?"
As long as the Seventh Prince needs her for a day, Yin Qu can be trusted.
And the two nephews gradually grew up, even if no one mentioned them, Yun Fenghuang would definitely give Xie Fuwang and Xie Li support.
In the end, these two brothers are the heirs of their four rooms.
The visitor walked forward and said in a low voice: "In response to Niang Niang, Yin Shangshu checked Gu's confession. Gu's stared at Xie Luma very closely over the years, and found that Xie Luma had almost nothing to do with the remaining children and women of Xie's main branch. Supporting and taking care. On the contrary, it is quite accommodating to some distant branches that are not closely related to the Xie family, and even outsiders... It is a careful analysis of Mr. Fu Wang and Mr. Ari, and they are both face-to-face, in fact, there is no How much deep assistance and planning."
"Never mention the two sons even outside."
"So much so that the people who followed Xie Luma only recognized Xie Luma, and they were separated by a floor from the empress, let alone being loyal to the two sons."
Yun Fenghuang frowned.
After a while, he said slowly: "My palace knows it, thank you Yin Shangshu, my palace will ask the concubine."
After this person retreated, the imperial concubine turned her head to look at Chen Jing beside her: "Is what he said is true or not?"
"Manny forgive me." Chen Jing knelt down and pleaded with sweat. "The slave and maid are incompetent, and I didn't find these... The slave and maid will let people do it!"
The Qing people and other attendants worriedly persuaded Yun Fenghuang to calm down his anger: "Since the death of the Xie family, the 21st son and the empress have depended on each other for fate. He is determined not to do this deliberately. Is there any misunderstanding in this?"
Yun Fenghuang was not angry. In the final analysis, Xie Wuzheng's feelings with her only got close after the destruction of the Xie family.
Before, this cousin was not far from blood, but in her eyes it was just a pawn.
Xie Xiyu's elder brothers who grew up together with a mother, are the real self in her eyes...that is not as important as her own!
Two years earlier, when she was fighting with Xie Wu and crying, she was still thinking that she should teach Shafer Forget and Xie Li, the two surviving nephews, to revive Xie's hope in the future, to a large extent. These two nephews, not Xie Wuzheng in the next room.
If Xie Xiyu guarded her back, she might still be furious.
But Xie Wuzheng...
The same goes for Yun Fenghuang's feelings for him. The closeness of these two years has actually been more of mutual support under the same illness.
When it comes to pure affection, it's far from it.
Therefore, although his face was cold at this moment, he didn't mean to be angry. He just said indifferently: "Is it a misunderstanding when our people check it. It's just that Yin Qu is not stupid. He has been with this palace for many years. It's only for Xiaoqi's consideration, not for this palace! Therefore, unless he thinks that it might get in the way of Xiaoqi, he will definitely not talk too much...this matter is 80% true."
The attendants were actually quite shocked. After all these years, Xie Wuzheng was a proper person for Huanhuadian.
Who knew that he would make small movements while carrying Yun Fenghuang on his back?
Even doing it so concealed, if it weren't for the imperial concubine's unwillingness to wait for a year, she would have to send the Gu clan a year ago, I'm afraid it will be kept in the dark until now!
"Niang Niang, do you remember what Sanfang and Wufang said when you led the house earlier?" Qing Ren thought for a while, sent the others out, and said in a low voice with Yun Fenghuang, Unevenness, the family has a lot of people, there are always some people, even if they know the interests, they will inevitably be jealous... Maybe the husband did not do this deliberately, but was forced?"
Yun Fenghuang looked at her and said calmly: "He is not willing to support the remaining people, this palace can understand. But, don't let Fuwang and Lier be known outside, saying that there is no selfishness, it makes sense?"
