Han Lingfan swiped his pen, and the eye-catching red pen stroked down on the fold, encircling one word——
"Cut".
After putting down his pen, Han Lingfan raised his eyes and looked at the chief assistant and third division chief who were waiting behind the case, and said solemnly: "The crime Han Lingfu committed is unforgivable." At this moment, Han Lingfan Fan no longer called him Third Emperor Brother, but called him by his first name, "Pass on my order to order Lu Huaining, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, to search his mansion, and Han Lingfu will behead him at the Meridian Gate three days later for public display!"
Han Lingfan's sonorous and powerful voice echoed in the imperial study room. Everyone else couldn't hide their shock when they heard the words and looked at each other.
"Your Majesty," the Minister of Dali Temple took the lead in persuading him in a tactful tone, "Should we think twice about Han Lingfu's handling?"
"I have made up my mind." Han Lingfan said directly.
Several ministers looked at each other again, and this time Cheng Dongyang said sternly: "What the emperor said is true. Han Lingfu will never be able to atone for his sins even if he dies, but he can't do anything to ruin the emperor's reputation for him and make the emperor fall to his brother. A reputation for not being timid."
In the imperial study room, there was silence for a moment. Han Lingfan looked around Cheng Dongyang and others, smiled bitterly, and said slowly: "In the past few months, I have been tolerant to Han Lingfu just because I care too much about my reputation. , will fuel his ambition and bring disaster to the imperial court. However, since I came to the throne, I have accomplished nothing. The people of Dayu are in chaos and are in a precarious situation..."
As he spoke these words, Han Lingfan looked as determined as iron, his dark eyes sparkling, and said: "It is the fault of the imperial court and my fault for not being able to let the people live and work in peace and contentment!"
His voice was neither soft nor serious, but the power contained in every word was like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of several ministers, making them moved.
Cheng Dongyang was the first to kneel down, and then the three commanders also knelt down and said in unison: "I am guilty."
After the words were spoken, there was silence in the imperial study room. You could hear the drop of a needle, and the atmosphere was very solemn. This meant that the case had been concluded and Han Lingfu had no chance to turn around!
At this time, most of the sunset outside had set, and the sky was dim and filled with red clouds dyed red by the setting sun. The emperor's decree was conveyed to the sky prison before night fell completely.
The sky prison was dark and damp, with a gloomy and musty smell permeating it.
After the chamberlain read out the imperial edict, Han Lingfu, who was sitting cross-legged on a straw mat, couldn't believe his ears.
How is this possible? ! That weak Han Lingfan actually dared to order him to be killed? !
Shouldn't Han Lingfan, for the sake of his own reputation, hypocritically sentence himself to exile, or sentence himself to imprisonment in the imperial mausoleum... maybe after a period of time, he should report his death from illness or something like that?
Han Lingfu's eyes were bloodshot. He originally thought that no matter what, he could live for another month or two, and then if he planned secretly, there might be a glimmer of hope!
Why is the result like this? !
Han Lingfu stood up suddenly, grabbed the wooden fence of the cell, his eyes were cracked, and he roared with hatred: "Go and call Han Lingfan!"
"Han Lingfan, you are a despicable villain, you have trapped me and you will not die..."
"Han Lingfan, I will never let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"Who do you think you are? You dare to kill me? You are just a false emperor with a shady name..."
"Father clearly belongs to me..."
A steady stream of curses continued to come from Han Lingfu's mouth. They were extremely vicious, like a scolding shrew, and every word was unpalatable.
"Brother Three Emperors..."
Suddenly, a familiar sigh floated out from the dark corner, carrying a deep sense of disappointment and helplessness.
Han Lingfu was silent for a moment, staring at the direction of the sound like a poisonous snake, gritting his teeth and said: "Sneaky! Han Lingfan, are you shy to see people?!"
As he spoke, a tall and thin figure walked out of the shadows and walked slowly towards Han Lingfu's cell. He was wearing an indigo brocade robe and a jade crown on his head. He had a handsome appearance and a body. Standing tall and straight, he is none other than Han Lingfan.
The two brothers faced each other across a cell door. One was the real Dragon Emperor, and the other was a death row prisoner. They were very different.
"Han Lingfan, are you here just to watch my jokes?" Han Lingfu asked angrily with a gloomy look.
A flash of disappointment flashed in Han Lingfan's eyes. They were brothers after all, so he came to Tianlao to see him. Maybe he always had a glimmer of hope for Han Lingfu in his heart.
"Brother Three Emperors, this is the last time I come to see you. Is there anything else you want to say?" Han Lingfan's eyes grew colder and he said softly.
"What did you say?!" Han Lingfu sneered, "Do you want me to bow my head to you and beg for mercy?! Don't even think about it!"
Han Lingfan shook his head and said, "You still don't know your fault until now!" Han Lingfu plotted to kill his father and committed so many wrong things, but now he doesn't even have a trace of regret.
"Wrong?! What did I do wrong? I was not wrong!" Han Lingfu raised his voice and said hoarsely, "You framed me and you forced me."
Han Lingfan was completely disappointed, "Brother Three Emperors, I have given you too many opportunities..." But he was stubborn after all!
"Give me a chance?!" Han Lingfu looked at Han Lingfan and laughed mockingly, "When?! If you really mean it, take back the imperial edict and let me out!"
As he spoke, he looked at Han Lingfan provocatively, as if to say, otherwise you are just hypocritical!
Han Lingfan did not speak, but looked at Han Lingfu quietly, his dark eyes like a deep pool.
Han Lingfu said sarcastically: "You dare not make the decision even on such a small matter, Han Lingfan, you are not worthy of being an emperor!"
Han Lingfan let out a long sigh again, and the sigh sounded particularly loud in this quiet heavenly prison. There was a bit of coldness between his brows, and he said: "Whether I am worthy of being emperor or not will be judged by future generations. It is not decided by three people." Brother Huang, you have the final say!"
Han Lingfan waved his sleeves and said the last few words calmly: "You can take care of yourself."
As he spoke, he turned around and strode away.
Seeing Han Lingfan about to leave, Han Lingfu panicked. Did Han Lingfan really want to kill his brother? !
Isn't he afraid that the world will think that he doesn't even spare his brother and is too murderous?
Isn't he afraid that the world will question him for the rest of his life as an emperor who killed his father and his brother and gained the throne unfairly?
Han Lingfu's pupils shrank sharply as he watched Han Lingfan go further and further away. Seeing that he was about to disappear around the corner, he finally couldn't suppress the fear of death in his heart and shouted loudly: "Fifth Emperor Brother, wait a minute. Wait! It was me who was wrong! I admit my mistake, I admit my guilt, and I believe that we have the same roots as brothers, please let me live!"
Later, Han Lingfu's voice was almost a roar, and his hands holding the fence were trembling slightly. He doesn't want to die yet! He can't die!
Han Lingfan paused slightly, then continued to move forward amidst Han Lingfu's shouts, without even looking back.
Watching Han Lingfan's back disappear from sight, Han Lingfu fell limply to the ground, his heart as cold as the coldest winter in the twelfth lunar month. In a daze, he seemed to see Black and White taking another step closer to him, and the sound of the soul-locking chain It can’t be heard in my ears...
"It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this..." Han Lingfu murmured almost crazily.
How could he lose to a useless and weak person like Han Lingfan!
Since God allowed him to be born into the royal family and given him such great talents and strategies, he should naturally be the destined emperor!
As for Han Lingfan, he could no longer hear Han Lingfu's unwilling roar behind him. He had already walked out of the prison.
The sky outside was dark and twilight was closing in, leaving only the golden setting sun in the western sky.
Han Lingfan stared at the last bit of brilliance in the sky. The chaos and haze in his eyes suddenly dissipated in the cool breeze of the evening, and his expression became more determined.
Since he is the emperor and has the great wealth on his shoulders, he must do things that are beneficial to the great wealth!
This is his mission!
Han Lingfan strode away in the night wind with determination, as if he had left something behind...
The night finally fell completely. It's bound to be a long night. The Jin Yiwei went to the Han Mansion to search and confiscate the property under the holy order. All the slaves and servants were confiscated and sold, and all the female relatives in the manor were exiled and sent to the southwest border...
The trees fell and the hozens scattered. In less than an hour, the huge Han Mansion was completely empty, with people and things changing.
Those members of Han Lingfu's party were all trembling with fear, fearing that they would be the next to have their homes confiscated and sent away. That night, many people in the mansion were tossing and turning, sleepless all night.
The next day, when the sun rose again, all the officials gathered in the Jinluan Hall to attend the morning court as usual. They are obviously still these people, but they still feel strange.
After a brief silence, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue came out and righteously opposed sending troops to Jingzhou on the grounds that the treasury was empty and could not allocate military silver.
But this time, Han Lingfan was already confident. He turned around and gave instructions to the little chamberlain beside him, and the little chamberlain shouted in a sharp voice: "Commander Lu Huaining, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, is here to see you!" The officials couldn't help but look at each other, confused. They couldn't figure out what the relationship between the empty treasury and the "Yellow Turban Army" in Jingzhou had to do with the Jin Yiwei. Could it be that the emperor wanted to punish the minister of household affairs because he raised objections, so he declared Lu Huaining? !
In the eyes of all the officials, who were either surprised or suspicious, Lu Huaining led dozens of royal guards into the Jinluan Palace. What caught everyone’s attention the most was the boxes of heavy red-lacquered wooden boxes. After a while, So the Jinluan Hall was filled to the brim.
"Your Majesty, this is what was seized from the Han Mansion last night."
In Lu Huaining's sonorous and powerful voice, the boxes of things were opened. All the officials took a breath and saw that the dozen or so wooden boxes were filled with brilliant gold and silver jewelry. Go, the palace is full of jewels.
Han Lingfan, who was sitting on the throne, looked down at the ministers in the palace, taking in their different reactions. His heart felt unprecedentedly calm, and he said loudly to the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance: "Master Li, yesterday the Jinyi Guards inspected the Han Mansion. It just solves this urgent need, and now we have enough military silver! What do you think, Mr. Li?"
Han Lingfan's tone was calm and seemed to be no different from usual, but it made the Minister of Household Affairs clearly feel that something was different. The emperor has become different!
It was as if he was just a person who was passively pushed to the throne before, but now he is a real monarch, and he has begun to have the thunderous spirit of an emperor.
The whole hall was silent. The courtiers were caught off guard by the new emperor's unexpected response. They could not react for a moment. They only listened to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue bowing his head and saying yes, saying that he would immediately arrange for someone to count the silver coins and deposit them into the treasury today.
Seeing this, Yongyang, who had originally planned to come forward, was overjoyed. The emperor had really grown up, and it seemed that before long, she would be able to live her old age peacefully in her princess mansion!
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Yongyang's mouth, and his eyes suddenly became brighter.
Seeing that the ministers seconded the proposal, Han Lingfan simply struck while the iron was hot and directly ordered Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing to enter the court.
As he expected, this move immediately aroused objections from the Ministry of Rites, which was based on the fact that he had not changed his father's will for three years. However, Han Lingfan had made up his mind. After all the setbacks in government affairs in the past few months, he I deeply realized that there are many parties in the DPRK and China, and the only ones I can truly trust are these two former companions.
After yesterday's three-division review and the emperor's resolute actions just now, the whole court was a little frightened. After Cheng Dongyang and En Guogong seconded the emperor's proposal, no one raised a voice to oppose...
After the morning court that day, the emperor's imperial edict was immediately sent to Nangong Mansion. The gate of Nangong Mansion, which had been closed for several months, was opened again to welcome the angels into the mansion.
Nangong Xin knelt in the main hall and bowed his head to listen to the decree. The sharp voice of the **** who issued the decree came into his ears. Nangong Xin listened intently, fearing that he would miss every word or sentence. His heart was like a tide, and he could not suppress it. Excitement and excitement.
Although he just went to the Household Department to be a small Household Inspector, this was already a solid first step!
At first, when his family went to their old home in the south of the Yangtze River, he was the only one who stayed in the capital. This was for friendship and for Han Lingfan’s kindness; but now, after experiencing so many things, he also has his own Ideal, I want to work with Han Lingfan to support this precarious country, make the world peaceful and the people happy, and it is not in vain for his seven-foot man to come to this world!
When the last two words "I appreciate this" fell, Nangong Xin bowed to the ground respectfully and responded loudly: "I accept the decree."
He took the bright yellow scroll with both hands raised high, as if taking over his future.
After the angel who issued the edict left, the Nangong Mansion was filled with joy. The arrival of this edict immediately injected life into the empty mansion. Nangong Xin and Fu Yunyan personally went to Princess Yongyang’s Mansion to inform them of this good news. According to the news, the young couple did not leave the princess mansion until nightfall...
The Royal Capital this night was much quieter than last night, but in some unknown corners, the noise did not subside.
Amidst the sound of gongs and drums at the second watch, several uninvited guests arrived at the back door of Fengyin Restaurant. Two guards in golden robes escorted a hooded woman.
"People, we brought it to you as promised." One of the Jin Yiwei with a mustache said to the fat boss of the restaurant lukewarmly.
"Excuse me." The fat boss personally received the reception, saying with a smile, while pulling off the woman's hood. After taking off the hood, the woman's beautiful but pale face was revealed. Her dark eyes were filled with fear and hatred under the silver moonlight. It was Bai Muxiao.
"Uh huh..." Bai Muxiao tried to question, but her mouth was blocked with a ball of rag, and she could not speak at all.
The mustached Jin Yiwei said again: "Since I have handed over to you, let's take our leave." With that, the two Jin Yiwei clasped their fists and left without any regrets, leaving only Bai Muxiao. Still trying to make a sound like "吚吚woo".
The fat boss looked at Bai Muxiao, smiled slightly, and warned: "Mr. Bai, if you don't want to suffer, you'd better be obedient along the way. We can all worry less."
Xiao Yi never does loss-making business. On that day, the fat boss was ordered to reveal Bai Muxiao's whereabouts to the new emperor. Of course, this news was not given in vain. He had made an agreement with the new emperor in advance to wait for Han Lingfu. After the matter was resolved, Bai Muxiao was returned.
Originally, the fat boss was worried about the indecisive temperament of the new emperor Han Lingfan, and did not know when he would be returned. After all, the prince was still waiting. Unexpectedly, this time the new emperor changed his temper quickly. The matter was settled without hesitation.
Bai Muxiao was slightly startled when she heard this, and immediately understood what the fat boss meant. Was he taking her somewhere? !
The fat boss had no intention of answering her question. He looked at the restaurant with some reluctance and sighed: Hey, just because of Bai Muxiao, the stronghold of Fengyin Restaurant has been exposed, so we have to leave it at that. Abandoned!
The night is getting darker...
At dawn the next day, a green-covered carriage drove out of the back door of the restaurant and sped out of the south gate of the royal capital.
The destination is southern Xinjiang thousands of miles away!
