PDLP Chapter 601
Chapter 601
"You... Lai Mingcheng, you have overstepped your bounds today. This king..."
"Haha, usurpation? When the late emperor was on the throne and obsessed with elixirs, I once pointed at his nose and said so in Fengtian Palace."
"If you, King Ning, think that I am guilty, then chop off my head."
"But you can't stop the gossip."
He pointed his halberd at the angry Lai Mingcheng and growled at Zhu Wusi.
Yes, he even dares to scold the late emperor, so what are you so arrogant about as a vassal king?
If Lai Mingcheng were really punished for this, I guess the spine of Zhu Wusi would be broken by scholars!
"Lao Ge, calm down!"
"You are a pillar of the Ming Dynasty. Getting angry and sick will only make some people laugh."
Xu Shan hurried forward and said sincerely.
Lao Lai, we still have to rely on you to bring down the Yangzhou Lin family. You better take care of yourself!
"Mr. Xu, are you behind this?"
"It was you who caused Lord Lai to misunderstand my Ning Palace."
Zhu Wusi gritted his teeth and roared at Xu Shan.
"Misunderstanding about Prince Ning's Mansion? Prince Ning, you are so powerful, who has the ability to let Lord Lai misunderstand you?"
"you……"
"Report!"
"Your Majesty, Lord Ji, the Jiangnan Pacification Envoy, is sending an urgent message to Yangzhou, eight hundred miles away."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
"In reply to your Majesty, after Envoy Ji led his troops to Yangzhou Prefecture, most of the merchants and officials involved in the 'silt fields' comprador business met with accidents."
"According to the Pacification Bureau's investigation, it was the remnants of the Shenlong Cult who did this."
'Wow.'
After hearing this report, there was an uproar again at the scene.
Although the Shenlong Sect was classified as a "heretical cult" by the Ming Dynasty, everyone knew clearly in their hearts that this sect was just a pawn of the Ning Wang Mansion in the underworld.
Otherwise, Jingxuan would not have been able to command the several guardians of the Shenlong Sect as a royal attendant.
"Prince Ning, do you still want to say..."
"The Ning Palace has nothing to do with the remnants of the Shenlong Cult. Are their actions in Yangzhou Prefecture entirely voluntary?"
"Or is it that these are all conspiracies and tricks by Lord Xu and Envoy Ji to deliberately frame and slander you?"
Faced with Lai Mingcheng's public questioning, Zhu Wusi could only deny it.
It was indeed he who arranged everything in Yangzhou.
But as for the right and wrong of that place, he would never order anyone to take action.
But now we have to admit that he is no longer able to explain himself.
"His Majesty……"
"The guilty minister, Lai Mingcheng, is willing to go to Yangzhou Prefecture to thoroughly investigate this case."
"Lord Lai, this is absolutely impossible. You should have heard that Yangzhou Prefecture is in extreme danger right now. Lord, you..."
"Your Majesty, I, a guilty subject, am willing to carry my coffin to Yangzhou!"
"If I don't get to the bottom of this case, I will die with regret!"
'Plop.'
After saying this, Lai Mingcheng, who had just been helped up, knelt down on the ground again.
at this moment……
Xu Shan's "Death Knell Plan" is slowly closing.
Carrying a coffin into Yangzhou?
This is the intention to die!
Once this matter gets out...
Even if the Yangzhou Lin family is not guilty, Lin Ruopu's reputation is ruined.
You know, forcing the cabinet ministers and the president of the Censorate of two dynasties to investigate the case in this way, doesn't that indirectly show the arrogance and rampantness of the Yangzhou Lin family in the local area?
"Lao Ge, this is absolutely impossible. You should stay in the capital. This matter..."
Wang Mian, who had thought this through clearly, immediately stepped forward to dissuade him.
"Shut up!"
"Wang Mian, as the Minister of Personnel, you have the responsibility to supervise all officials. I don't believe that you have never received a petition from Yangzhou officials to protect each other."
"You, you, and all of you... you all call yourselves scholars, and every word you say is for the benefit of the Ming Dynasty, but what have you done in all these years besides fighting for your own party?"
Lai Mingcheng pointed at the Donglin Party ministers present one by one, and after roaring all this, he asked for permission again.
Unable to resist, Zhu Youwei was "forced" to agree to this.
At this point, the Yangzhou Lin case was completely pushed to the extreme.
This situation was completely unexpected by Prince Ning and the Donglin Party ministers.
But for Xu Shan, the death of Lin Ke, Ren Feng, Ren Wen and others was just the death knell.
Lai Mingcheng's trip to the south of the Yangtze River made the sound of the bell last far and wide!
"Xu Qing."
"The minister is here."
"I command you to immediately lead your men to search the residence of the bandit leader Cheng Shifei and find the thief who ambushed and murdered Lord Lai last night."
