Chapter two hundred and sixteen great cleaning
Lei Yungong stopped his voice, looked at the Eight Kings slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Eighth Prince, this is the will of the late emperor!"
The Eight Virtuous Kings suddenly stood up, glared at Lei Yungong, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Defang made a great oath in front of the late emperor, and he would never covet the throne! Therefore, he cannot obey the imperial edict!"
As he said that, he bowed his hands and took a few steps back, passed through the ministers, turned around, and walked out with great strides.
As he walked, he said aloud: "From now on, I will not see anyone outside the mansion without leaving the mansion!"
"Eighth Prince! Eighth Prince..." Lei Yungong finally panicked and hurriedly chased after him with the edict.
All the officials were stunned and looked at the backs of the Eight Virtue Kings leaving.
At this time, Kou Zhun suddenly realized something, and immediately pointed at Lei Yungong and said harshly: "This will be false! This will be false!"
Yang Yi rushed out, stood in front, spread his arms, and shouted loudly: "When the late emperor was critically ill, he summoned his official, Kou Gong and Wen Zhumi to the front of the imperial court. The official drafted it. Kou Gong wrote it in his hand. Wen Zhumi added a seal to make a will to pass the throne. The king who succeeded the throne was clearly the crown prince, so how did he become the Eight Kings? This will be fake! Someone forged an edict!"
Wen Zhongshu stood up and said, "Not bad! This official can prove it, and this will was definitely not established by the late emperor!"
General Cao Wei touched the bearded man in confusion, looked left and right, and was a little confused for a moment.
But he couldn't make up his mind, but someone had decided early.
Ding Wei took a step forward and looked at Kou Zhun coldly: "Grandpa Kou, you have always relied on the old Hu, the late emperor was kind and always tolerated you. Now even at such a throne ceremony, do you want to come out and make trouble?"
Kou Zhun pointed at Ding Wei angrily: "You are a bastard! Could it be that you have a share in this fake will?"
Wang Qinruo took a few steps forward and spoke coldly for Ding Wei: "Grandpa Kou, you said this imperial edict is fake, but you are giving it a real one!"
Lin Te, Chen Pengnian, Liu Chenggui and others also stepped forward one after another.
"Yes! Mr. Kou, you said it is fake, then you can get the real one!"
At this time, Lei Yungong did not catch up with the Eight Virtues, and rushed back with the imperial edict. He held the imperial edict high in his hand and shouted: "The imperial edict is here, who dares to resist the imperial edict!"
Seeing him say this, Ding Wei quickly stepped forward, bowed to the imperial edict first, then reached out to take it, opened it and looked carefully, and then displayed the imperial edict to the civil and military officials in the court.
"The imperial edict is true!"
Kou Zhun was anxious and rushed forward to grab the imperial edict: "You are talking nonsense! You are so bold, you dare to forge the imperial edict!"
Ding Wei took the imperial edict to avoid Kou Zhun, and Wang Qinruo and others stepped forward to stop Kou Zhun.
"You are so brave, you dare to resist the order! Where is the warrior in front of the palace?" Ding Wei shouted.
The warrior standing next to the hall did not move.
Ding Wei raised the imperial edict and shouted loudly: "I am the assistant minister Ding Wei, where is the warrior in front of the palace?"
The warriors in front of the temple hesitated for a moment, stepped forward one after another, crossed their hands to salute.
Ding Wei raised the imperial edict with one hand and pointed at Kou Zhun with the other hand, shouting: "Kou Zhun roared at the Golden Palace, and his crime was beyond the reach. Immediately bombarded him out of the palace!"
The warriors stepped forward, raised Kou Zhun and walked out. Kou Zhun struggled and shouted: "Ding Wei! You are so brave! Ding Wei, you must die a good death..."
The curses gradually faded away, and all the officials and ministers looked at each other and stopped talking for a while.
At this time, Zhou Huaizheng suddenly rushed up and pointed at Lei Yungong and shouted: "The late emperor drafted the imperial edict in Kunning Hall, which is recorded by our family. The late emperor clearly said that he would be sent to the prince. How dare you tamper with the imperial edict?"
Lei Yungong's face darkened and he glared at Zhou Huaizheng: "Zhou Huaizheng, the late emperor has always treated you well. At this time, you dare to deny the imperial edict? Come on!"
Lei Yungong glanced at Ding Wei, and Ding Wei understood and raised the imperial edict: "Zhou Huaizheng's plan was inappropriate, arrest him immediately!"
The warrior stepped forward and captured Zhou Huaizheng.
Liu E suddenly said in a deep voice: "Ding Wei, Lei Yungong, what do you want to do?"
Ding Wei turned to Liu E, looked at her deeply, and bowed slowly: "Empress, the late emperor has just passed away, and the empress is better to be at ease in the harem. Don't let the disputes in the court disturb the empress's mind."
After Ding Wei finished speaking, his expression changed: "Come here! Send the Empress and the Prince back to the palace to rest! Good life is taking care of..."
The guards in front of the palace stepped forward and signaled Liu E and the prince to return to the palace.
The prince stepped forward angrily and wanted to turn on the guards.
Liu E suddenly saw Lei Yungongsen's cold eyes full of murderous aura, and was shocked and hurriedly grabbed the prince.
She slowly glanced at the ministers, as if she wanted to remember everyone's face. After a moment, she said word by word: "Let's go!"
As he said that, he turned around and left after seeing the samurai in front of the temple.
Seeing that the mother and son retreated and left, Ding Wei, Wang Qinruo and others looked at each other, all of which were all surprised.
But Lei Yungong turned his head and looked at the door of the hall, and his eyebrows were slightly locked.
Forgetting an edict?
Resistance?
After such a stir, all the civil and military officials could not stay there and talked about it. They left the palace one after another. It can be imagined that it will not take long before this incident will spread throughout the capital and even throughout the world.
As soon as the ministers left the palace, the palace immediately became in chaos. Each palace and the palace was full of armed guards arresting people.
Under the leadership of the eunuch, he directed the guards to take people and escort them.
Some eunuchs were punished by sticks, some concubines jumped into a well to hit a pillar to avoid being humiliated. Some palace maids, eunuchs held trays, and there were daggers, poisons, and white silks in the tray. They were given poison to commit suicide, and they were hung with white silks to commit suicide.
The palace was wailing everywhere, and there were casualties everywhere.
Of course, just like marching and fighting, soldiers are against soldiers, generals are against generals.
The little man can only handle two eunuchs leading the guards, but a big eunuch like Zhou Huaizheng needs Lei Yungong to take action personally.
However, for Lei Yungong, the most urgent task at the moment is not to get rid of Zhou Huaizheng, but to find the real edict that was enough to turn the world around.
Soon, Lei Yungong led a group of guards and eunuchs into Zhou Huaizheng's room.
After scanning around, he didn't find the gin wine pillar standing by the wall. Lei Yungong was stunned and pointed to the location where the gin wine pillar was placed, and hurriedly asked the eunuch beside him: "Where is the gin wine pillar? There is a gin wine pillar there, where is it?"
"Eunuch Lei, I don't know." The little eunuch was frightened.
Lei Yungong was furious and slapped in the face: "If you don't know, go and ask!"
The little eunuch hurriedly covered his face and said yes, and ran away in panic.
Lei Yungong panicked and looked around, but the room was so big that there was nothing at all. He suddenly grabbed a middle-aged eunuch and asked anxiously: "Where is Zhou Huaizheng?"
The middle-aged eunuch looked around and replied in a low voice: "Dadfather-in-law, didn't you say a glass of poisoned wine to send him on his way? Now..."
Lei Yungong pushed hard, and the middle-aged eunuch staggered back a few steps: "Hurry! Go quickly, stop them, don't kill Zhou Huaizheng, be sure to ask me about the whereabouts of Jin Jiuzhu!"
The eunuch listened to the order, and ran away in a hurry.
In the secret prison of the Forbidden Palace, Zhou Huaizheng was forced to kneel on the ground with a disheveled hair and a blue nose. There was a prison guard standing next to him, holding a small porcelain bottle in his hand.
"Eunuch Zhou, this is Eunuch Lei's meaning. Don't cause any trouble on the road to the underworld!" The jailer grinned, raised his chin at his colleague beside him, and held Zhou Huaizheng's jailer pressing Zhou Huaizheng's arm with force, forcing him to raise his face.
The prison guard who took the poison walked forward with a smile on his face, pinching Zhou Huaizheng's face with one hand, and pouring the poison with the other hand.
