The imperial court's handling of Qiu Shenji's rebellion case was as swift as ever, and this kind of simple and quick handling style of the rebellion case was formed under the unremitting efforts of the four cool officials, and now they themselves have become victims.
Qiu Shenji was convicted of rebellion and abandoned the city and executed Zhou Xing, as an accomplice, was sentenced to exile in Lingnan Today is the day of the execution of Qiu Shenji, and he will be beheaded by Wu Sansi.
The snipe and the clam competed, and the fisherman profited, and now Cen Changqian and Wei Fangzhen have died in prison, and the vitality of the Xiangquan faction has been greatly damaged.
And Wu Chengsi was completely defeated, and his important minions were almost lost, and in this vicious battle, Wu Sansi, who had been standing by and watching, became the person who benefited the most.
The people in the sea are all human spirits, even if each other's political wisdom and political strategy are a little superior, they will not be too far apart with the assistance of the think tank staff.
Sometimes, once a mistake in judgment and the development of the situation is out of one's control, it may not be that others will take advantage of it.
At this time, it seems that Princess Taiping's plan to drive wolves and tigers has failed, and Wu Sansi, the wolf, has become the biggest beneficiary, and Princess Taiping has not taken any advantage from it, nor has she strengthened her political power because of this, at least on the surface.
The day after the court announced Qiu Shenji's rebellion and Zhou Xing's rebellion, Li Zhaode played the Son of Heaven and talked about the interests of the prince's clan interfering in the government.
Although Wu Chengsi himself retreated, he lost his position as prime minister, and several important minions under him were also cut off and retired gloomily.
Immediately, Wu Zetian issued another edict to the world: "Zhou Xing, as an official Shangshu of the Autumn Period, is in charge of the national prison, and has framed courtiers many times, saying that he is plotting rebellion; The country has its own laws, and even I can't break them, so I can only do things according to the law I also suspected that Zhou Xingju's accusation was untrue, and I once sent my close ministers to the prison to personally ask the ministers who committed the crime, but they were afraid of punishment, and they all confessed to the crimes they had committed, so I never doubted the actions of Zhou Xing and other evil officials.
I ruled the world with a bow, my ears and eyes depended on the civil and military, and the ministers were either afraid of their power, or afraid of being co-ordinated, or flattering, all of which went their way, so that I was framed as the master of fornication and punishment, which made me sad.
Now that the traitor is ambushed, I hope that the secretary will expose his crimes, redress his grievances, and redeem his mistakes."
As soon as this holy decree was issued, the government and the opposition continued to expose the crimes of Zhou Xing and Qiu Shenji, and the official eunuchs and gentry who had been framed by them rushed to tell each other, and their excitement was overflowing, but the prime minister Wei Fangqing, Cen Changqian and Ouyang Tong and other ministers were dead after all.
In Wu Zetian's opinion, these people are all unreliable officials who are not of the same mind as the martial family, but at the beginning of her ascension to the throne, it was impossible to promote too many people who were only loyal to her but had no talent as prime ministers, so she had to use them to stabilize the political situation.
Now that the political situation has stabilized, these people have finally been purged.
Zhou Xing, Qiu Shenji and others were originally trying to cater to Shangyi and remove obstacles to her government.
Now, these minions have formed a gang for their personal rights and have done things that are harmful to her rule before they are eliminated, but even if they die, their last bit of use value will be squeezed out.
Wu Zetian easily got rid of himself and pushed all the sins on these cool officials, Zhou Xing and Qiu Shenji, the two watchdogs, became scapegoats, and the biggest gainers in this political dispute are Wu Sansi or Wu Zetian, it's really hard to say.
In front of Taiyi Gate, the place where the city is abandoned, is crowded with people.
The roads leading to here in all directions have long been congested by the swarming people, many of the officials and gentry who had been persecuted by Zhou Xing and Qiu Shenji's whole family went out to set up incense tables around the court, some people burned incense and prayed, wept bitterly to their relatives, and some people were grateful to the Holy Ming of the Son of Heaven, because their own grievances were finally revealed, and bowed in the direction of Miyagi.
Prison officer Wu Sansi Gao sat on the prison platform.
In the distance, a prisoner cart escorted by the guards of Yulin was slowly moving towards here.
Wu Sansi turned his head sideways and whispered to a henchman, "Zhou Xing is already on the road."
The man said: "It's Zhou Xing's prisoner car that has just left Luoyang, and the little one has already sent someone to follow him all the way according to the prince's orders." ” Under the charge of rebellion, what is really concealed is Qiu Shenji, Zhou Xing's unscrupulous illegal acts in order to fight for power and the position of the prince, and the harm of these behaviors to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and among these evil deeds, Qiu Shenji is the vanguard, Zhou Xing may be the one who made the plan, but in Wu Zetian's heart, he is obviously not as evil as Qiu Shenji, so for this eagle dog who has made great contributions to her, Wu Zetian moved a trace of compassion, and did not sentence him to death, but exiled.
"Hmm" Wu Sansi twisted his beard and smiled coldly, and said in a low voice: "Fight the snake and don't die, the saint is never afraid of killing, and now he is sentenced to Zhou Xing's exile, instead of abandoning the city, it seems that he is still a little reluctant, not letting him die, after all, it is a scourge, when he leaves Luoyang and finds a suitable place, send him to see Qiu Shenji."
"The little man must be arranged" Wu Sansi waved his hand and said, "Go ahead" When the man left, Wu Sansi poked his head and glanced in the direction where the torture car was coming, looking a little impatient.
Qiu Shenji has been in the army for many years, there are a lot of people, today he is beheading Qiu Shenji, just in case, the forbidden army has all entered a state of alert, and the nine cities are under the control of the emperor's most trusted Beiya Forbidden Army, and even the people who escort the prisoners to the execution ground and perform the vigilance and security around the execution ground are not the public of Luoyang Mansion or the Criminal Department or Dali Temple, but Yu Linwei.
Yang Fan rode on a horse and led the Yulin guards to escort Qiu Shenji's prisoner car and slowly drove towards the court.
Qiu Shenji was dressed in the costume of a death row prisoner, with a flail around his neck, and stood on top of the prisoner car.
The prisoner cart was rolling along, Qiu Shenji's face was ashen, and the rotten eggs thrown by the people on both sides smashed on his head and face, and he seemed to have no consciousness at all.
He had a wooden ball stuffed in his mouth, and his cheeks were a little weird, and his mouth couldn't even swallow, so saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth from time to time, like a stroke patient.
The rotten egg smashed on his forehead, and the liquid trickled down and into his mouth, and then came out with the saliva, and the shape was indescribable.
The execution of the prisoners began four years ago, that is, four years ago.
That year, when Hao Xiangxian, the falsely accused prince's generalist, was executed, Hao Xiangxian scolded loudly, made a generous statement on the execution ground, counted Wu Zetian's crimes, and even told her about her adultery with Xue Huaiyi, which made Wu Zetian embarrassed.
From then on, executioners had to be stuffed so that they couldn't utter a word.
Qiu Shenji knew more about Wu Zetian's secrets, including Wu Zetian's command to execute the crown prince Li Xian, which was a matter that everyone knew about but could never sit on the truth, and of course this person couldn't tell him to speak.
Yang Fan did not stop the people from venting their anger, he just took off the reins of his horse, and stayed away from Qiu Shenji, so as not to suffer the disaster of the pond fish.
No one noticed how excited the young General Yu Linwei was behind his calm face.
The tragic scene of Taoyuan Village, vaguely appeared in his mind, his father, sister, and the villagers in the village, the great changes in his childhood changed his life, he came all the way from Nanyang here, this is his last enemy.
Today, Qiu Shenji is about to be ambushed, he was executed because of the evidence he provided, he died in his hands, his last enemy is finally going to die, and the burden that has been pressing on his heart since childhood can finally be lifted.
Looking at the incense cases set up by many people who had been persecuted by Qiu Shenji on both sides of the road, Yang Fan couldn't help but want to shed tears.
He really wants to loudly declare to his relatives who have died: "Father, mother, sister, your great revenge has finally been avenged."
Yang Fan raised his face and let the tears in his eyes quietly dissipate.
Today's sky is very clear, only a few white clouds are floating in the sky, the sky is high and the clouds are light, which makes people's hearts inexplicably open-minded: "The revenge of Daddy and Sister has been avenged, all the enemies are dead, Niuniu, where are you" The clouds in the sky are like the smiling face of a little girl.
The cloud was like a thin little face, the thickness and uneven color of her face resembled the dirty appearance of her face, the jagged edges resembled her messy hair, she seemed to be smiling at herself, and two front teeth were missing from her mouth.

Yang Fan smiled at Nayun: "Niuniu, Brother will definitely find you" Xiao Man was sitting in front of the dressing table, lazily combing his hair, and his face in the mirror was a little charming, but it showed a lazy and boring charm.
Yang Fan has not been home for seven or eight days, since the Qiu Shenji case, Luoyang City and the palace have been on strict alert, as an important general of the palace guard, how can Yang Fan go away at this time.
Xiaoman doesn't know how she did it, usually when Yang Fan is at home, what she is most afraid of is when she comes back from the store and faces him; The most embarrassing moment is every night, although Yang Fan sleeps on the floor, but after all, the two sleep in the same room, so ashamed that she doesn't even dare to take off her coat, and she is afraid of being heard by him when she turns over, which makes her sleep uncomfortable every night.
However, Yang Fan is not at home these days, she can't see Yang Fan when she comes home every day, and when she sees the empty floor next to the couch every night, her heart is also empty, always like she is missing something, losing something, and after a few days, she has no appetite for eating, and it seems to be more difficult to sleep.
"Madam, Ah Lang has returned home" As soon as the third sister's cry was remembered outside the bedroom, Xiaoman jumped up excitedly.
"Ouch" Because the action was too urgent, the comb didn't have time to be put down, and she pulled her hair, which hurt her "ouch", but she didn't care about these at all, she only threw the horn comb on the dressing table, jumped to the door with an arrow, opened the door, and said happily: "He's back, where is he" To be continued:
