After a night passed, the servant of the Geng Tong family, the clerk of the criminal department, found an exquisite envelope wrapped in red paper at the door of the house.The brightly colored thing was discovered at a glance.
The slave opened the paper bag and saw that the envelope inside said: It is about the general matter, please ask the official Geng to personally release it.Seeing this, the slave did not dare to keep it in his hands, so he hurried to the outside of the cave gate of the inner house and said that he had something to do to see his master.
Geng Tong, who had just woken up and was wearing underwear, put on a cotton shirt and summoned his slave.
Geng Tong took the letter that was not opened, looked around and checked it, then tore open the seal, and took out the letter inside to read it.
This is a snitch letter.The person sued Guo Ming, the son of Wuding Marquis Guo Ying, the father of the current imperial concubine Guo Yan, and the father-in-law of the King of Han.
The letter said that Guo Ming was very dissatisfied with his family's situation and complained.
Guo Ming talked with people several times that Emperor Taizong had never liked the emperor, and felt that Emperor Taizong was too fat and had lost his royal demeanor and accomplished nothing. Taizong initially wanted to confer the title of King of Han as the crown prince, but later because he loved the emperor Zhu Zhanji, he thought he was like himself, so he reluctantly conferred the title of King of Heaven. Taizong wanted to pass the throne to his grandson, not his son.
If it weren't for Zhu Zhanji, the throne now belonged to the King of Han, why would the Guo family be so embarrassed...
The letter is written in a concise manner, and it is clearly described where, Guo Ming’s expression and tone, as if the whistleblower had seen it with his own eyes. It just hides the name of the person who talks, or is unwilling to implicate others.
Geng Tong immediately put it away after reading it, paced around the room with a very serious expression.
He immediately reminded his servant: Don’t spread the news about receiving this secret letter!Tell those who see it to shut up!
The slave hurriedly bowed and worriedly: "You little, please obey your order."
However, Geng Tong does not trust those illiterate people, and saying hello may not work.What's more, if the whistleblower fails once, he can tell others.
Geng Tong felt that if this matter was handled improperly, he would be implicated!
It is already very serious to tell the emperor about his family affairs, and Guo Ming, who is involved, is also a relative of the royal country.
Once this secret letter is submitted, the emperor will be furious and can't say who he is angry; but the Guo family and the Han prince's mansion must hate Geng Tong.
But the paper cannot keep the fire, and it won’t work if you don’t hand over it!
Geng Tong was holding this hot potato and was thinking about things in a daze.How he had breakfast, put on official clothes, and how he went to the imperial city, he couldn't remember the details clearly after looking back, and it was like losing his soul.
He arrived at the Imperial Gate and finally came to his senses. He quickly reached out to hold his black hat and pulled up the green robe and official uniform that was flattened.The Ming Dynasty was a country of etiquette and morality, and it was also a sin to be disorganized in the temple.
Today, the emperor will not come to the Imperial Gate to listen to the affairs.The eunuch reminded.
Geng Tong then remembered that life was wrong, and he was really a little out of his mind today.
He reached into his pocket, looked up at the majestic Fengtian Gate's double-eaves roof, retracted his eyes, and looked at the eunuch Haitao standing next to him.Haitao was born in the residence of Prince Yàn and was a confidant eunuch today.
By the way... Geng Tong took out a red paper bag of rumor letter from his pocket and said, "There is an important thing that the father-in-law Fu Hai took into the palace and presented it to the emperor."This is…that my slave picked up at the door this morning.
Haitao reached out with both hands and said: Our family will send it to Donghunting Pavilion immediately.
Geng Tong asked: Has the emperor arrived at the East Warm Pavilion?
Yes!Now the court is full of troubles. The emperor slept late and got up early every day, and everyone lost weight!Haitao took the east and said.
Geng Tong really couldn't imagine that the emperor had lost weight, but he suddenly regretted handing over the things to Haitao!
As a department official, Geng Tong was not of high rank, but he was a small official with a superior status in the court.
Even Emperor Taizu warned his descendants not to kill the censors, and the officials of the Kedao were censors.
In the six temples, even the ministers and ministers of the Shangshu and Shilang temples cannot have a way to deal with such small officials.
What's more, Geng Tong was one of the first people to persuade the emperor to become the emperor... so he could go directly to the Ganqing Sect and hand over the things to the emperor in person.
What is the difference?
Geng Tong was not worried that Haitao would not communicate. The eunuchs nowadays did not have the courage to intervene in the communication between the king and the minister.
Geng Tong only realized it later that the rumor letter was torn apart; as long as someone changed hands, it was possible that other people would see the content.
But Haitao had already held the thing in his hand, and Geng Tong finally couldn't let go of his face and wanted to come back.
...The whistleblower was indeed delivered to Zhu Gaochi.
Emperor Zhu Gaochi sat on his large golden nanmu chair covered with leopard skin, tiger skin and lion skin.
The eunuch Haitao bowed and presented the thing to the emperor and said, "Report to the emperor, the minister of the criminal department, Geng Tong, said that the things he picked up at his doorstep this morning were asked to send in and present them to the emperor."
Zhu Gaochi opened the paper bag and saw a torn letter lying inside, so he took out the letter to read it.
Bang!Zhu Gaochi suddenly slapped the imperial desk with a palm, and the teacup, inkstone, brush, memorial and other items on the desk popped up together, falling back on it in a mess.
The fat on his face shook and immediately kneaded the letter into a ball.
The eunuch Haitao and other servants were so scared that they knelt on the ground, not daring to make a sound.
After a while, Zhu Gaochi unfolded and smoothed the crumpled paper again.He thought about it, kneaded it into a ball again, looked up at the copper brazier beside the wall, and threw it out and said: It's burned!
Haitao kowtowed and said: I obey the order.
After all, Zhu Gaochi can’t use the reasons in the secret letter if he wants to mess with Guo Ming!Too embarrassing.
Zhu Gaochi took a deep breath, and the flesh on his chest fluctuated, but his cold expression was at least a little calmer.
Regardless of whether the letter is true or not, Zhu Gaochi doesn’t want to investigate the truth!
Because even without this secret letter, Zhu Gaochi was very disliked by Guo Ming and had wanted to mess with him for a long time!
With today's secret letter, Zhu Gaochi will only aggravate this idea and will not change any of his attitude towards Guo Ming.
Therefore, in Zhu Gaochi's opinion, this secret letter has no value except to make him unhappy, and it is not a pity to burn it.
Guo Ming is extremely like a fence-in-law!He just wanted to watch the fire from the other side of the river to watch the Zhu brothers beat him to death so that he could make profits from it.Zhu Gaochi now hates such people very much!
There is also Concubine Guo, who was born to Guo Ming. It turned out that Zhu Gaochi thought she didn't understand power struggles, and she was simple and kind-hearted, and had a good impression of her.
But now it seems that Concubine Guo is intriguing and involved in some conspiracies in the Eastern Palace.
The death of the late emperor caught Zhu Gaochi off guard and a lot of big troubles are now in a panic. Concubine Guo has not yet ruled out the suspicion.
Zhu Gaochi had long wanted to make the Guo family pay the price!
Because the death of the late emperor and the palace explained that Zhu Gaochi could not say that Concubine Guo was at all suspicious, and could only swallow his grudges into his stomach.
Although Zhu Gaochi had ascended the throne and became emperor, it was difficult to destroy the descendants of a hero and noble family and royal relatives on false charges, as that would make everyone in danger; therefore, the matter has been delayed to the present.
We have to find a reason to make Guo Ming unlucky as soon as possible!
