Chapter 738 If you don’t pay back taxes, you’ll go bankrupt!

"This is impossible! It must not be like this. Why is it like this? This is the divorce and marriage certificate given by Zhangzhou Prefecture. Why doesn't the court recognize it?" Mrs. Liu was really shocked. This was the Ming Dynasty court. How could it go back on its word? !

"Isn't Zhangzhou Prefecture an official government office of the imperial court?"

If this matter could be handled easily, Lu Cheng, the prefect of Zhangzhou Prefecture, would not have sent it to the court to handle it as a difficult case.

Zhao Mengyou said with a serious face: "Because you deceived Tang Zhihan for the purpose of defrauding property, and the fact of fraud exists, the letter of divorce will naturally be discarded, and the marriage contract with Xu Zhenyi will naturally not be counted. Before that, you will always belong to Tang Zhihan The family wealth was transferred to Xu Zhenyi’s hands, with various properties totaling 1.6 million silver.”

"This is an indisputable fact, with irrefutable evidence."

"If the various workshops are not under the care of Tang Zhihan's hands and feet, do you also want to transfer these workshops to Xu Zhenyi's hands?"

Tang Zhihan is a very loyal man. The land deeds of those workshops are in the hands of his brothers, and Tang Zhihan takes 30% of the profits from each workshop every year.

The most valuable thing is not the land, but the people who gather together to use Jilong Island as the source of logs to process the logs. Various master carpenters with more than ten years of experience are the source of profits. The processed wood is sent to various places. In the shipyard, wood processing is Tang Zhihan's most profitable business.

A master carpenter has a high status in society, is respected, has a good economic status, at least he has enough to eat and drink, and can even support a student.

"That's my money too!" Mrs. Liu's face turned red and she shouted loudly. This was a bit stern but she was actually afraid. The court was unreasonable and even refused to recognize the marriage certificate. It just wanted to favor Tang Zhihan. This aroused Liu's arousal. The fear deep in his heart.

"Who earned it?" Zhao Mengyou asked as calmly as possible. This Liu's thinking was different from normal people.

"If you give it to me, it's mine! It's all mine!" Mr. Liu's eyes were already red, and he shouted this sentence with his loudest voice. The louder the voice, the more guilty he felt.

And the adulterer Xu Zhenyi had completely fallen to the ground. Liu didn't understand. Xu Zhenyi had already known the result since he heard that he was going to Beijing.

The angrier Mr. Liu became, the calmer Zhao Mengyou's tone became.

Zhao Mengyou flipped through the accounts in his hands and said calmly: "You don't know that all this money was earned with your life, and you don't want to know how hard Tang Zhihan worked."

"You look like you don't even know what 1.6 million silver is. The towering Zhengya Bell and Drum Tower over there cost 1.2 million silver to complete. Each person went up to the building for 15 cents. In addition to maintenance costs, the cost has now been recovered to 60,000 silver.”

"A high-class wandering girl from the Japanese country, who can go directly to the painting boat, only costs fifty taels of silver each, which is already the most expensive. Tang Zhihan can buy 32,000 of them, even the most expensive Yangzhou thin horse, which costs two hundred Two, Tang Zhihan can buy eight thousand, but you can't play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and your body, body, and forehead are all old and yellow."

"When I go out to sell it, most of the time no one cares about me, even if I am ten years younger, no one will look at me."

Mrs. Liu vigorously shook her sleeves and said sternly: "I am his wife of chaff. When he was the poorest, when the family didn't even have chaff to satisfy his hunger, I was the one who raised his children. I was the one who went around begging for help." Liang! Compare me with those lowly prostitutes, you are so handsome..."

Mrs. Liu suddenly lost her temper. She looked at Zhao Mengyou in shock, with a confused look on her face.

"Say, keep talking." Zhao Mengyou raised his head and looked at Mrs. Liu with no mockery, no disgust, no emotion, only coldness.

Zhao Mengyou compared Mrs. Liu with a prostitute, just to let Mrs. Liu herself say these four words, a wretched wife.

Don't forget your poor and humble acquaintance, and don't abandon your wretched wife.

Obviously, Mrs. Liu also realized that she had said what she least wanted to say, that she was Tang Zhihan's wife. Tang Zhihan had never been a prostitute, and the relationship between them had always been actual husband and wife.

Zhao Mengyou met too many prisoners, and he found that many of them had self-consistent logic. They told so many lies that they even deceived themselves. In the whole fictional story of deceiving even himself, there must be one Point is the cornerstone of the entire fictional story.

The biggest cornerstone of Liu's fictional narrative is that she believed that Tang Zhihan only regarded her as a housekeeper and Tang Zhihan as a prostitute, and then constructed all the fictional stories, enjoying everything with peace of mind.

To break the prisoner's will and shatter the fictional story is to break this foundation, and the story of self-narration and self-deception will collapse.

Mrs. Liu has always been very clear about her identity, Tang Zhihan's wife.

All the luxurious life she has, all the romance she has, even the privilege of not kneeling before an official, and her status as an official wife are all earned by Tang Zhihan through hard work outside. She is highly respected only because she is Mrs. Tang, not Liu family.

"Do you still have any objections to my decision to abrogate and leave the document based on the fact of fraud?" Zhao Mengyou asked.

"Yes!" Ms. Liu replied with a horrified look on her face. She was determined not to admit this. Once she admitted it, what she did would be nothing short of an exaggeration.

"Very good. Since she refuses to admit her identity, she is no longer the wife of the ninth-grade merchant general manager. It's easy to handle. Come here, ten sticks!" Zhao Mengyou took out a sign and threw it on the ground.

The reason why Zhao Mengyou did not use torture when Liu was roaring in court was because if He Lishu was to be abolished, Liu would still be a ninth-grade child.

The head wives of officials from the first to ninth ranks of the Ming Dynasty are called madams. The head wives of officials of the sixth and seventh ranks are called Anren. The eighth and ninth ranks are Confucian people. Of course, they are generally called madam. This is not only an honor, but also a strict hierarchy. , it was a rule not to hit her before, but to hit her now is to tell Ms. Liu why she could speak like this in court.

The two Tiqi picked up the Liu family and took them out to beat her. Now that the stick had landed, it was the order of the court superior. Not even the officials from the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate who were watching stopped him.

The cruel and shrill screams spread throughout the courtroom. When Mrs. Liu was dragged back, she seemed to be dying, and it seemed that she had been beaten very hard.

But Zhao Mengyou knew very well that Tiqi's attack was actually without any effort. With so many court officials watching and the emperor in the back hall, Tiqi would not be able to give in to the attack no matter what.

The reason why he looks like he is dying and about to die is Liu's little trick.

Zhao Mengyou had seen too many of the cruel staff of the Ming Emperor, and he always felt that with a little cleverness, he could avoid being punished.

"Well, I'm still a little dissatisfied. Let's hit fifty more." Zhao Mengyou flipped a sign and prepared to throw it out.

"I admit it! I admit it!" Mrs. Liu, who seemed to be dying just now, suddenly shouted loudly. Even if Tiqi restrained her strength and applied ten sticks, it would still hurt.

Zhao Mengyou took back the sign and said very clearly: "With ten sticks, if I exerted all my strength, you would have been killed by the fifth stick. The reason why you are still alive and well now is entirely because you are the wife of a ninth-grade official. You have enjoyed all the benefits." Everything was given by Tang Zhihan, including Xu Zhenyi.”

"Yes, Xu Zhenyi is quite handsome and poetic. He is also very good at painting and sweet talking. He is thirty-seven years old. What does he want for you? Does he want you to be old and beautiful? Or does he want you to be unreasonable? ? Isn’t it just for your money? ”

"Oh, by the way, you know very well that Xu Zhenyi has two concubines and three concubines who have children. You had a big fight with him because of this, and your face was scratched. Did you scratch it?"

"Master! Please say something." Mrs. Liu knelt on the ground, looking at Tang Zhihan miserably with pleading eyes. She was in unspeakable pain. Mrs. Liu did not look at Xu Zhenyi, who was so scared that she wet her pants. No more hope.

"Tang Zhihan, do you have something to say?" Zhao Mengyou asked Tang Zhihan.

Tang Zhihan bowed, took a deep breath, and then said loudly: "I have nothing to say."

If Tang Zhihan still wants to plead for Liu at this time, then Zhao Mengyou can only say that Tang Zhihan deserves to die. Before, Tang Zhihan was almost beaten to death in his own home and on the belly of his mother-in-law, but he still persisted in his stubbornness, so he might as well be beaten to death. .

Zhao Mengyou looked at Mr. Liu, exhaled and said, "I have never seen such a vicious woman like you. Even Pan Jinlian in the book knows some shame when compared with you."


Zhao Mengyou is Tishuai. He has seen too many criminals. There has never been any woman more vicious than Liu.

"Since you all have no objections to the annulment and divorce, then sign and pledge this demand note!"

"This year, a new wooden workshop was opened on Jilong Island, and the tax debt was 1,300 silver. After the case, it was paid to the Ministry of Household Affairs." Zhao Mengyou took out an opened tax stamp, handed it to the document, and asked Tang Zhihan signed and stamped it.

The governor's salary office of each city's shipping department is the emperor's southern treasury. Half of the taxes must be paid directly into the government. This is your majesty's money, and not a penny can be lost! Without Zhao Mengyou, I would have nightmares at night. Your Majesty is very generous and rewards you often, but your Majesty will personally check the money that should be put into the treasury.

After Tang Zhihan signed and stamped the document, Zhao Mengyou checked the documents and was shocked again. He said with a solemn tone: "The imitation crime, "Da Ming Law·Criminal Law·Human Life", his wife and concubine committed adultery and murdered her husband. , Lingchi will be executed, and the adulterer will be executed!”

After the tax was collected, it was a typical case of an adulterer. The Ming Dynasty law has three punishments for adultery. One is consensual adultery, which means that you and I are willing to do so, and each will be beaten eighty times, instead of being thrown into a pig cage, which is lynching. After the beating, the judgment was severed; one is an adulterer, that is, raping a good family member, and the adulterer will be punished by death;

The most serious among them is rape and murder, the woman is raped and the adulterer is beheaded in public.

"Ling Chi?!" Mrs. Liu looked at Zhao Mengyou dumbfounded. She never expected that it would end like this!

Zhao Mengyou smiled and tugged at the corner of his mouth and said: "If you don't harm people, you can just slap some punches and pay back the money and that's it. If you harm people's lives, that's a severe sentence."
< br>

The Ming Dynasty's criminal law includes flogging, cane, disciple, exile, and death. The first two categories, whipping and beating with a board are corporal misdemeanors. As long as Liu has no intention of harming human life, it is considered a misdemeanor. He can even be exempted from paying for it. This is flogging and corporal punishment with a stick.

Imprisonment means hard labor, which lasts from one to ten years, exile means exile, and death penalty means beheading, beheading, beheading, and post-Qiu beheading. Sentences of post-Autumn beheading are sometimes met with amnesty and still survive.

As for Lingchi, it is the most serious crime among serious crimes, a serious crime that cannot be forgiven.

Zhao Mengyou started the next step of the trial, and it was very complicated up to this point. Various evidences continued to appear, and dozens of witnesses came out to testify. Each witness left a confession. The minister Yan Qing, the censor of Qiandu Zhao Jin and others checked it one by one to confirm that it was correct and kept the files.

Zhu Yijun sat in the back hall and listened to the interrogation process. No decision would be reached today. Zhao Mengyou gave his opinion, and the Ministry of Punishment finally confirmed it. After approval by Lu Guangzu, the minister of Dali Temple, it was sent to the emperor for trial, and he was required to die three times. Even if It will take ten days and a half if it is urgent, but if it is not urgent, it will take a year and a half.

"Now that I heard about it, I discovered one thing. Either Mrs. Liu was not clear about it, or she was just pretending to be confused. She didn't even dislike Tang Zhihan for being an honest man. Mrs. Liu just couldn't handle Tang Zhihan, so she found someone who was more cowardly and capable. The living Xu Zhenyi bullied ”

"This Mrs. Liu dared to tickle Xu Zhenyi, but she didn't dare to disobey Tang Zhihan, so she kept doing it and decided to kill her." Zhu Yijun came to a conclusion after hearing the whole process.

Tang Zhihan is very powerful, otherwise he would not be able to take over the banner of Yuegang Ocean Trading Company from the old peak leader and old merchant general Li Ruiqi. Tang Zhihan is strong, but after Liu has money, some ordinary pleasures can no longer satisfy her. The threshold was reached, so she found various excuses, and even took Xu Zhenyi, who had pinched her in the past, in turn.

And judging from the trial process, Mrs. Liu enjoyed the feeling of holding Xu Zhenyi.

"When I was ten years old, my mother took me to the Ancestral Temple to cry. The adults cried, and the children also cried. My mother told me, as the old saying goes, when a woman is in charge of a house, the wall falls and the house falls." Zhu Yijun felt quite touched. Said: "Mother said: Most of these women don't read. They only read and write women's precepts. They don't even read the classics and history. They haven't read the truth, and they don't have contact with the outside world. I don’t have much experience in people and things, but the wall will collapse and the house will collapse.” “My mother saw that I was not up to par, and the ministers were not supportive, so I had to let my husband take charge of me, restrain me, and rely on him to handle all the world’s affairs. My mother can just ignore this matter of state and don’t let the concubines in the harem talk about it. I think that’s the reason.”

Feng Bao was most afraid of the emperor mentioning his past events. As soon as the emperor mentioned his childhood, Feng Bao sweated profusely. At this time, Feng Bao's forehead was covered with sweat.

"You're such a coward, I don't even dare to say a word. I keep my word. You work hard and I won't go back on old scores." Zhu Yijun laughed and cursed. The dignified internal minister of the empire is like a quail when talking about old things. He is just as violent as Zhu Yijun.

"Your Majesty, I am really scared." Feng Bao said a little tremblingly, trying to tell the truth in front of the emperor.

He was still thinking about the Spring and Autumn Period in the future, and he did not dare to say that he would sit side by side with Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures. At least he would have the reputation of being the Minister of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty.

The Central Plains does not hate eunuchs, but hates eunuchs.

Gao Lishi of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Zheng He and Liu Yongcheng of Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Zhi of Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty were all virtuous eunuchs. Even scholars who were accustomed to scolding eunuchs praised them for their virtues. Feng Bao had no descendants, so he just wanted to do it. Posthumous name.

Zhu Yijun leaned back on the chair and said helplessly: "The production diagram talks about production and people are the sum of all relationships. What my mother said makes sense. In the past fourteen years, I have set up a girls' school for the children of generals, soldiers and craftsmen. , all have to go to school; and there is also Zhi Niang, who makes a good living. Although she doesn’t make as much as men, she is careful.”

"Go to school and study wisely, work with production, and know how to deal with things. If Mr. Liu makes such a fuss, please don't ruin all my efforts in the past fourteen years."

When Wang Chonggu talked about this case, he said that this case was similar to the case of the official factory weaver's marriage fraud. After the marriage fraud case, prostitutes were not allowed to enter the official factory. After the Liu case, don't let all the previous business operations be ruined. , all destroyed.

Feng Bao hurriedly said: "That's not possible. This kind of vicious woman cannot be written in the book, Your Majesty."

"That's true, I hope it's an exception." Zhu Yijun stood up, took two steps, and said to Feng Bao: "By the way, there are still maritime merchants beating drums to complain about their grievances, claiming that all their money was involved in the divorce. Are you leaving? Tell Tishuai that you won’t pay the taxes you owe, and you won’t give them the abolition letter.”

"It's absolutely impossible not to pay taxes."

"I obey the order." Feng Bao obeyed the leader's order.

Divorce in the Ming Dynasty was different, and so was the distribution of marital property.

Returning means not getting married due to an accident or misfortune. When a woman returns to her parents' home, she takes all the dowry back and returns the bride price. They part ways with each other and live happily together;

Marriage release is due to various reasons. Life is really unbearable, or the man made a mistake first. After negotiation, the man writes a marriage release letter and asks the woman to recomb her hair, make her eyebrows beautiful, and then find a good wife. This situation When the couple has lived together for many years, the woman takes all the dowry back and does not return the bride price;

Heli, after negotiation, if both parties choose to break up peacefully, their assets will be divided equally, that is, the couple's property will be divided half and half, each person will have half. It was first implemented in the Song Dynasty. For example, Volume C of "Yi Jian Zhi" contains a man named Wang Balang. Outside the Yuan Dynasty, he despised his wife, Lao Zhuhuang, and split the family property in half with his wife. Later, he fell in love with the brothel and died in the belly of the prostitute.

Seven divorces means divorcing a wife. A woman who divorces her wife can take away her dowry and clothing, but not the dowry;

Divorcing a wife is not just a matter of casual divorce. The laws of the Ming Dynasty clearly stipulate that the wife should not be divorced for three years, if she marries and has nothing to return to (the woman is homeless), and she should be mourned for three years (after observing filial piety to the man’s parents, he is not allowed to divorce his wife again), Poor in the past and rich in the later (the wife of chaff should not be abandoned). If the wife does not comply with the three rules, she will be forcibly divorced and her home will be confiscated.

To seize the divorce, the husband is too cruel or does nothing, and the wife goes to the Yamen to sue her husband. After the Yamen review, the divorce is decreed. In this case, the woman can only take away the dowry.

Jue means that when a criminal case occurs, the yamen will directly judge the divorce. When the righteousness is broken, the relationship is often broken. This situation is quite complicated and is often analyzed in detail. Similar to Tang Zhihan's case, if there is no harm No matter which official a person is placed in the hands of, he must be punished for adultery.

Finally, there is another way, which is to avoid misfortune.

After Zhang Juzheng's death, more than a dozen members of his family were imprisoned and starved to death. The eldest son Zhang Siwen even committed suicide to express his ambition. Seeing the end of Zhang Juzheng, Qi Jiguang in his later years, in order to avoid disaster, reconciled with his first wife Wang, and even took away his concubine, son Everything was left to the Wang family, and he was left alone, fell ill, had no money for medical treatment, and died in depression. This was an entrustment to avoid disaster. This situation was extremely rare.

Therefore, in order to reduce taxes and divorce the maritime merchants, if they want to follow the precedent of Tang Zhihan's case and abolish the letter of divorce, they must pay in advance the tax reminder and fine issued by the tax inspector before they can abolish it in accordance with the law. Pay taxes and go bankrupt!

In the Ming Dynasty, only death and taxes were unavoidable!

Zhu Yijun returned to Tonghe Palace and asked about the queen's situation. She was about to give birth, and the entire Tonghe Palace was very nervous. There had been no happy events in the palace in the past few years. Zhu Yijun went to the Calyx Tower to have a look, but did not go in. He just stood at the door. spoke before.

"Your Majesty, good news from the front line!" A Tiqi man with a vermilion flag on his back ran to the gate of the courtyard and said loudly: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, and congratulations to the Ming Dynasty! There is good news from the front line. The Japanese pirates were defeated in Kaicheng and have evacuated. Kaicheng and Linqing, retreat to Seoul!”

"Okay! Reward!" Zhu Yijun was overjoyed when he heard this. He took the good news from Feng Bao and looked at it carefully for a long time.

Qi Jiguang was on the front line and completely defeated Kato Kiyomasa.

Qi Jiguang's fighting style is quite simple. When Zhu Yijun watches Qi Jiguang fight, he always has the illusion that I can do it if I do it, but he knows very well that he cannot achieve such a beautiful result. Although it is very simple to queue up and shoot, he is still convinced. I am not that material.

The Beijing camp's infantry camp, vehicle camp, cavalry camp, and artillery camp took turns to go into battle. It was not so much fighting as it was accumulating practical experience and gaining experience by pressing the Japanese pirates' heads. The Japanese pirates were not without struggle. They tried various methods, but on behalf of The poor line array is still too powerful.

Fighting with all firearms is much more terrifying than Zhu Yijun imagined. It is not an exaggeration to say that one person is equal to eleven, especially the Japanese pirates who lack stainless steel armor. It is impossible to get close to the Ming army's front and they will be defeated.

Kato Kiyomasa made a very bold plan to go out to sea from Linqing River, cross Incheon, and surprise Tanggu warehouse in Tianjin Prefecture and Yizhou City. In the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao burned Yuan Shao's granary and baggage, and the weak defeated the strong!

Kato Kiyomasa dispatched 200 ships to prepare for a sneak attack!

As a result, as soon as the Japanese pirates came out of the Linqing River, they were blocked by the artillery of the Ming Dynasty Navy. The Ming Dynasty Navy and the Jingying even cooperated, and the Japanese pirates could only retreat.

Qi Jiguang always thinks about defeat first and then victory. He is never arrogant and never despises any opponent. When fighting, he always exerts all his strength, fights to death, and strives to kill with one punch.

This time the Japanese pirates learned the lesson from the Battle of Pyongyang and did not let the Hwarang Hyeps escape first. Instead, they sent out the Hwarang Hyaps to attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty army and then fled immediately. When the Hwarang Hyeops rushed out, the Japanese pirates launched a collapse and betrayal. He slipped away, greased his soles and ran back to Seoul.

The Ming army recaptured Kaesong, the former capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, and Linqing, an important city.

"Madam, it's a happy event." Zhu Yijun smiled and said to Wang Yaozhuo at the door.

"I heard it." Wang Yaozhuo leaned in front of the door and said angrily: "Wu Yuanjian is also the same. He won't let my husband in no matter what. My husband is so happy, and I am also happy, my wife, but I can't see the good news."

Wang Yaozhuo liked the good news coming back from the front line. That was the happiest time for her husband. Of course, the Ming army had won many battles, and the Ming Emperor's throne was as stable as Mount Tai. She, the queen, could peacefully care for her husband and raise her son, and her son could inherit the throne. throne.

"It's okay. It won't be too late to see you again in a few days." Zhu Yijun smiled and reassured.

"I still have to recover after giving birth, and I won't be able to see my husband for five or six months." Wang Yaozhuo's voice suddenly rose higher: "Oh, this child..."

"Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Yijun immediately ordered the Imperial Physician to come over. There was the only female convict in the Taiyuan Hospital in the Ming Dynasty, Wu Lian, who was Chen Shigong's direct disciple.

"Your Majesty, the queen is about to give birth at her thousandth birthday, and the fetal position is very good." Wu Lian's voice came from inside the door.

Zhu Yijun walked back and forth in front of the door. Although he was already the fourth child, Zhu Yijun was still a little worried. He was afraid of the issue of whether to protect the elder or the younger. Care would lead to chaos. He waited for nearly an hour before he heard the loud cry. .

"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. You are blessed with a daughter, six pounds and nine taels. Everything goes well. Mother and daughter are safe." Wu Lian announced the good news, but the emperor still could not enter the delivery room. The rules of Wu Lian in the women's hospital were a bit strict, and Zhu Yijun had to abide by them. .

"Thank you, Judge Wu." Zhu Yijun thanked him repeatedly outside the door, and arranged for Feng Bao to pay rewards to everyone in the palace, and asked Feng Bao to arrange for internal officials to bring good luck boxes with Pepsi to deliver good news to all the officials in the palace.

And Wang Yaozhuo's second daughter also has her own name, Zhu Xuanye.

(List of Wanli Emperor’s Heirs)

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is urging your Majesty to take concubines again." Feng Bao reminded the emperor carefully as he looked at the emperor who had just finished reviewing the memorial.

"Concubine Guo and Concubine Wang, have Wu Yuan determined that they are infertile?" Zhu Yijun asked with a solemn expression. Guo Yunyao and Wang Xiyue followed the emperor south, and both the king and the queen were pregnant. These two were still not pregnant, and Empress Dowager Li Started urging.

Feng Bao whispered: "Wu Yuanjian said that there is a lack of luck."

"Have good treatment, don't shorten your monthly salary, and don't let the palace maids bully you. During the holidays, you should be called upon when you are called. Don't be left out." Zhu Yijun warned carefully. If you don't give birth to this child, your status in the harem will be difficult. Even the maids in the palace are bullied, and it is even more painful to have no children.

"I obey the order." Feng Bao accepted the order. His Majesty still liked Guo Yunyao and Wang Xiyue very much. They listened to Queen Qiantose's instructions and tried to serve together, but still to no avail.

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "Didn't Concubine Zhou De become pregnant just in March? My mother also claimed that she was too hasty, so there is no need to rush. We are fighting on the front line and we do not accept concubines."

"I have written it down. I will reply to the Queen Mother tomorrow. Your Majesty, Madam Ran is already here." Feng Bao reminded Your Majesty that it's time to rest. Queen Mother Li's meaning is very clear. It's okay not to accept concubines, but all the concubines in the harem must Get busy.

Ran Siyi, who is restless at home, is from Yunnan. She is good-looking and has some medical skills. When she has nothing to do, she studies medicine with Wu Lian. She is the person who likes medical skills the most in the harem. Recently, Concubine Zhou De is pregnant again. Ran Siyi, who has been studying medicine, also Started to make progress.

"Let's ask Concubine Guo and Concubine Wang to come over tomorrow and try again." Zhu Yijun told Feng Bao as he walked towards the bathroom.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, and Zhu Yijun came to the Wenhua Hall to preside over the court meeting.

"Has the Ministry of Punishment announced the outcome of the Tang Zhihan case that was jointly tried by the three courts?" Zhu Yijun first asked about the case.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Punishment has agreed that both Liu and Xu Zhenyi will be beheaded in public." Wang Chonggu bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, Tang Zhihan was not killed, so it was an attempted murder, so it has been agreed."

"What does Dali Temple think?" Zhu Yijun looked at Lu Guangzu, the minister of Dali Temple.

Lu Guangzu bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is better to send him to Jiejuyuan at a later date. This is a serious crime. If he is not sentenced severely, it will be difficult to intimidate him."

Zhu Yijun thought for a moment and said: "Send it to Jiecuyuan."
