Inside the palace, the silence is abnormal, and outside the palace, it is lively and boiling.
First, the 'clan demotion case', then the Qian Qianyi case, and now the imperial court has successively promulgated many decrees, involving all aspects of the court situation, which really alarmed many people.
These policies include the 'Seventeen Articles of Cabinet Regulation' that further strengthens the relationship between the cabinet and the six ministries, the 'courtier etiquette system' that restricts the behavior of courtiers, and the 'Clan Practice Law' that loosens the clan rules.
Next year is destined to be a special year.
Dali Temple Prison.
Qian Qianyi sat on the ground, looking at the moonlight shining from the window, his eyes were dull and his expression was withered.
Two days have passed, and one day he will be sentenced, according to the lineup that day, even if he doesn't die, I'm afraid that he will be sentenced to 'fighting the border', and then it won't be long before he will 'die'.
I don't know how many times this kind of drama has been staged in the Ming Dynasty, since Shenzong, the members of the court who died in the 'border' of the third grade or more, there are not a hundred but eighty, not worse than him.
His mind is empty now, there is nothing to think about, there is nothing to think about, after all, he will die, and he will have nothing to worry about after death.
It's just that he was always in a trance, and in a trance, he entered the cabinet and became the first assistant, realizing his long-cherished wish for many years.
Those familiar and unfamiliar colleagues and political enemies raised their hands to salute him in unison, respectful and flattering, which made his suppressed heart feel a lot more comfortable, and the corners of his stiff mouth showed a smile.
The guards by the door glanced at him from time to time, afraid that Qian Qianyi would suddenly not be able to think about death, and then they would be more responsible.
But looking at Qian Qianyi's appearance, it seems that he doesn't want to die yet.
It was already dark, and under the leadership of a person who seemed to be a six-rank official, two women in white walked in slowly.
The prison of Dali Temple is cleaned up, not gloomy, it seems to be more like an ordinary room in a restaurant, clean, tidy, and translucent.
The six-rank official looked at Liu Rushi and Su Xi, and whispered, "Two young ladies, Master Wei has explained, you can't stay longer, please hurry up." ” Liu Ru wore a cloak and covered her head, bowed lightly when she heard the words, and said, "Thank you, little girl, remember." ” The official took Liu Ru and the two to Qian Qianyi's cell, took the others away, and gave another word of advice before leaving.
Liu Ru took off the cloak and looked at Qian Qianyi inside, frowning slightly, and his expression was a little complicated.
The current Qian Qianyi is embarrassed, decadent, and withered, and he is simply a homeless old man for many years, and he does not see the poetic, drunk, and chic genius on the Qinhuai River.
Liu Ru sighed lightly in her heart, no matter what, Qian Qianyi's fate was caused by her, and she looked a little unbearable.
Liu Ru took a step forward, looked at Qian Qianyi, and called, "Mr.
Qian." ” Qian Qianyi's stiff expression moved slightly, and when he turned his head to look, Liu Ru's pretty face appeared in front of him, he frowned, shook his head and said: "It is said that the drama is ruthless and the prostitute is unrighteous, I didn't expect you to come to give me a ride." ” Listening to Qian Qianyi's words, Liu Ruyi, Su Xi's face changed slightly, Qian Qianyi's words seemed unintentional, but they were really hurtful.
Liu Ru felt guilty, frowned and said, "Mr.
Qian, I have exhausted my methods, I came this time to ask, do you have any other methods?"
” Qian Qianyi looked at her, his fat facial features did not fluctuate at all, and he turned his head to look at the moonlight in the window, and said: "This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, the will of heaven remains the same, and manpower cannot be changed." ” Liu Ru looked at Qian Qianyi and said, "Mr.
Qian is saying that this matter is what the emperor meant?"
” Qian Qianyi showed a hint of ridicule on his face, and said, "If there is no intention in the palace, who can escort me all the way from Nanzhili to the capital?"
Without the meaning of the palace, will Wang Qiaonian personally preside over me?
Zhang Wenda, Shen Xun, and Lu Daqi How did they come to the jury?
” Liu Ru is heart sank slightly, if this is the case, then there is really no way, the will of heaven is unpredictable, the movement is like thunder, and it is difficult to change.
Su Xi looked at Liu Ru is frowning and thinking, looked directly at Qian Qianyi, and said coldly: "Then do you know a person named Zhu Muyu?"
” Qian Qianyi's small eyes widened, and he sighed, "I don't know." ” Su Xi didn't like Qian Qianyi, so he snorted lightly and didn't ask again, looked at Liu Rushi, and said, "Miss, let's go, we can't stay here for a long time." ” "So, is there any other way to save Mr.?"
Liu Ru is expression was a little complicated, looked at Qian Qianyi and asked.
The word 'sir' deeply stung Qian Qianyi's numb heart, these two words indicate respect and alienation, not at all like the woman who had to marry him not long ago.
Scenes of the past appeared in front of him, and he finally found that the smile of Liu Ruye he saw in the past did not seem to be the love between men and women, and the relationship between him and her has always been alienated, distance, and there is no love.
"Unless the world is reversed, there is no other way."
For a long time, Qian Qianyi became more and more desperate, and sighed helplessly.
Liu Ru frowned, Qian Qianyi's words were serious and rebellious, perhaps, there were other things behind him that made the emperor angry, and he couldn't help but feel a little upset in his heart.
"Let's go, miss."
Su Xi also heard it, and didn't want Liu Ru to be too involved with Qian Qianyi.
Speaking of which, Liu Ru is also the 'person involved' in this matter, if it is known that she is in the capital, I don't know what will happen.
Liu Ru was a little disheartened now, looked at Qian Qianyi again, turned around and walked outside - Qian Qianyi couldn't be saved.
At the same time, the cabinet is deliberating on how to write the verdict on Qian Qianyi.
The five auxiliary ministers were there, Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong, King Jing, Wang Qiaonian, Sun Chuanting, and the five of them sat in Bi Ziyan's board room, mainly listening to Wang Qiaonian's report.
Wang Qiaonian held a pre-written 'verdict' in his hand, and looked at everyone, "Qian Qianyi's culpability and the impact caused, the sentence is enough, and the lower officials are worried that this will have a greater impact, so they are a little hesitant." ” After all, not long ago, he was still a marginal figure in the court from the fourth grade, and now he has become a cabinet assistant minister from the second grade, Dali Siqing, after all, he is a little lacking in confidence.
King Jing listened thoughtfully, Wang Qiaonian's words were right, if Qian Qianyi was sentenced to be executed, the world would not know how to make a fuss.

Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting was silent for a while, this case is indeed tricky, and there are many concerns.
Bi Ziyan's eyes were calm, and he thought about it in his heart, and suddenly said, "The ministers of the court can't open the killing ring again!"
” Everyone was stunned, since the founding of Taizu, have they killed less?
All dynasties, especially the current dynasties, are afraid that only Taizu and Chengzu can be compared.
Bi Ziyan looked up at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I have killed too much in the court, and the ministers are frightened, this kind of thing must be avoided as much as possible in the future, as long as the court does not open the killing ring, other things will be easy to do." ” The four of them looked at Bi Ziyan, and their hearts moved slightly.
Qian Qianyi's identity is a bit complicated, the predecessor is the Donglin Party, and the back is the Imperial Party, if such a sentence is decided, it will inevitably have an immeasurable impact on the government and the opposition.
"The lower officials agree," Sun Chuanting said, "The imperial court needs to be stable, and it can't kill again." ” Sun Chengzong thought for a while, nodded and said, "I agree too." ” After such a circle, only King Jing was left, and everyone looked at him.
King Jing's status in the cabinet is special, and he has a disagreement with Bi Ziyan and others on the matter of the clan's demotion, looking at everyone's eyes, his eyes flashed, and said: "I don't agree, Qian Qianyi is an important minister of the court, and he needs to consult the emperor to make a decision." ” Although the general truth is that this is the case, in practice, it is often the cabinet that decides first, reports to the emperor, and waits for the imperial approval.
Bi Ziyan deliberately suppressed this prince, did not take his words to heart, turned his head to look at Wang Qiaonian and said, "You first draw up according to what we just wanted, and see the emperor with me tomorrow." ” Wang Qiaonian said: "Yes."
So, how should it be judged?
Is it imprisonment in a prison, or exile, or a frontier?
” Bi Ziyan pondered for a moment and said, "Sentenced to 30 years, imprisoned in the prison, pardoned or not." ” Qian Qianyi is almost fifty years old, and if he is sentenced to another thirty years, he will basically die in prison.
Wang Qiaonian thought about it, but it was appropriate, and nodded and said, "Yes." ” Bi Ziyan looked up at the sky outside, got up and said, "Let's stop here today, and I'll talk about other things tomorrow." ” The other four all nodded, and it was getting late.
