The commander of the Jinyi Guard made Lu Zhong never feel that he was a noble person, or rather, he identified himself as a despicable villain who would do anything for power.
So when he knew that Zhu Qizhen had privately given Yuan Bin a golden knife, his first reaction was to take the opportunity to make it a big case, and use it to flatter Emperor Zhu Qiyu and invite him.
Zhu Qiyu hates the emperor Zhu Qizhen, if he can give the emperor a reason to abolish Zhu Qizhen, then he can't rise to the top?
Since the former commander of Jinyiwei Ma Shun was beaten to death in public, Jinyiwei's status has taken a sharp turn, and he must use this opportunity to give Jinyiwei a long face, and by the way, improve his status!
So Lu Zhong quickly snatched the golden knife given to him by Zhu Qizhen from Yuan Bin, and then immediately reported to Zhu Qiyu: Emperor Taishang and Yuan Bin tried a hundred households in Jinyi Wei to plot against each other and wanted to restore, and this golden knife is evidence of private bribery!
Zhu Qiyu naturally would not let go of this opportunity, so he immediately ordered Yuan Bin to be arrested and extorted a confession from his words and deeds, in the hope that he could implicate Zhu Qizhen.
This golden knife was originally an old thing that was packaged and sent over by the palace people after Zhu Qizhen returned to Beijing, so Yuan Bin could not deny that it was given when he was in Mobei.
In addition, in order to enhance his persuasiveness, Lu Zhong called two Jinyi guards who were guarding outside as witnesses, because they saw with their own eyes the situation when Emperor Zhu Qizhen gave the golden knife to Yuan Bin.
But Yuan Bin is a hard bone, and he has a deep relationship with Zhu Qizhen, how can he splash dirty water on Zhu Qizhen?
Therefore, no matter what kind of torture Yuan Bin suffered, he just insisted that the golden knife was a personal gift, and he had no other intentions, and Lu Zhong was falsely accused!
What was even more unexpected by Zhu Qiyu and Yuan Bin was that this case attracted the attention of many courtiers: after all, it was about the emperor, and no one could sit idly by.
In this way, Lu Zhong didn't dare to play any tricks, and in the end, he provoked the three divisions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple to be tried, and the initiator Lu Zhong could only be a plaintiff and constantly go to court to be questioned, but he didn't find a fart for a long time.
It was the beginning of the second year of Jingtai, and the New Year's Day had just passed, but the entire imperial city seemed to be overshadowed by this big case.
And at this time, the loyal and brave Marquis Ji Ling led the pro-army from Datong and prepared to enter Beijing to report to Emperor Zhu Qiyu.
Lu Zhong knew that after Ji Ling came back, it was like he had met a savior, and hurriedly rushed to Ji Ling's mansion with gifts and asked him for advice.
And when Ji Ling listened to Lu Zhong finish talking about the general situation, he also guessed what was going on, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this Lu Zhong was really stupid, seeking to be promoted and make a fortune to the point where he didn't have a long brain, and he had coveted Wang Zhen's family property with him before, and he felt ashamed when he thought about it!
Fortunately, his hands and feet were wiped clean, otherwise he wouldn't know where to cry if he was implicated one day!
However, looking at the previous friendship, Ji Ling still patiently told Lu Zhong not to dwell too much on this matter, otherwise in the end, it would be difficult for the emperor to ride a tiger, and his face would not be good-looking, and he would inevitably end up stealing chickens and rice.
Lu Zhong also knew that his flattery and speculation this time was a sword that had gone off the rail's ass and touched the tiger's buttocks, so he nodded again and again and thanked him.
Immediately after the trial of the three divisions two days later, Lu Zhong put the blame on the two Jinyiwei who were witnesses, saying that they did not hesitate to make false accusations in order to be promoted.
Zhu Qiyu is now also anxious by those ministers, so he naturally doesn't want to dwell on this matter anymore, and Lu Zhong has found two scapegoats, so Zhu Qiyu sent the two brocade guards to prison and sentenced them, as for Yuan Bin, he should have been beheaded by the Autumn Queen, but under the pressure of the courtiers, he ended up in prison for several years.
At this point, the vigorous "Golden Knife Case" in the second year of Jingtai ended hastily, and Lu Zhong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, wanted to take the opportunity to flatter, but in the end he was not a person inside and out, so he had to continue to return to Nangong to serve as the duty of guarding the emperor.
The most unlucky ones are the two Jinyi guards who are witnesses, who originally wanted to follow Lu Zhong's promotion to make a fortune, but they almost lost their lives, as for Zhu Qizhen?
He is completely dead to his emperor's younger brother: brotherhood, bullshit!
Ji Ling, who is cautious, has always maintained a neutral attitude in this farce and has never expressed any opinions, who knows that even so, Emperor Zhu Qiyu still summoned him into the palace, and it was a big matter to discuss......
"I've worked hard for you in Datong for a while."
Zhu Qiyu leaned on the couch, looking not very good, "You have made a great contribution, and I see it in my eyes." ” "Blessed Saint."
"Eh, you earned it by yourself, and it has nothing to do with me......
Ahem......"
Zhu Qiyu said, then suddenly touched his chest, frowned and coughed violently.
Seeing this, Cheng Jing next to him hurriedly stepped forward and patted Zhu Qiyu's back, and at the same time, someone brought a bowl of medicinal soup and waited for Zhu Qiyu to drink it carefully.
"Your Majesty's dragon body is violated?"
Ji Ling looked at Zhu Qiyu's expression carefully, and couldn't help but worry for a while.
In fact, since returning to the capital this time, Ji Ling has seen that there seems to be something wrong with Zhu Qiyu's body: his face is pale, and his spirit is insufficient.
Even Zhu Qiyu, who was just in his twenties, had already grown some gray hair, which invisibly added a little bit of age, and he was no longer the healthy and strong young man he was two years ago.
I have the impression that Zhu Qiyu was quite sick when he was a child, but overall there is no big problem, but now......
How did it come to this?
Xu is worried about state affairs, or worried about government affairs......
Ji Ling guessed that it should be both, and few people could understand the pressure of Zhu Qiyu as an emperor at this time.
Zhu Qiyu, the emperor, is undoubtedly very tired, and he is far more diligent in political affairs than Zhu Qizhen, otherwise his complexion would not be so bad, but Ji Ling can also feel that Zhu Qiyu, the emperor, is very happy, otherwise he would not be like now, holding on to it and not letting go......
"I ......
It's okay......"
Zhu Qiyu finished drinking the decoction, and waved his hand at Ji Ling with a flushed face, "I occasionally felt cold a few days ago, and I have been uncomfortable......
"Please also ask Your Majesty to take care of the dragon's body, drink more hot water on weekdays, and sleep as much as possible......"
"Well, I know, it's rare that you have the heart to ......"

Zhu Qiyu nodded and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Actually, I called you today to discuss something with you......"
"Please give your Majesty's orders!
Ministers must do their best!
” "Well, you don't have to be so nervous, in fact, I just have that idea, but I still want to ask your opinion......"
Zhu Qiyu said, and waved his hand, asking Cheng Jing to drive out all the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting.
"I ......
I want to change the crown prince......"
Zhu Qiyu stared at Ji Ling tightly, and the air pressure in the entire room instantly became lower, "What do you think?"
