Chapter 985 Chaos in Beijing

Whether it is a poor or a beggar, they are all great people. The capital is not a place where gold is inlaid, nor is it a place where everyone is rich. There are dignitaries and nobles, and there are also poor people without a place. The north of the city is a concentration camp for the poor. Although this place is the least popular, they are also part of the capital.

A large number of people died overnight, which was definitely a major event that caused a sensation in the capital. When the bad news came out, someone immediately reported it in the morning court, and the number of deaths shocked Tianwu.

The officials who had always asked the female family members to follow Zhu Kongshan to move in the north of the city were deeply grateful at this moment. Fortunately, they had evacuated long ago, otherwise such a thing would have happened, and they might have been killed.

However, the Eighth Prince Xuan Tianmo was extremely puzzled by this. He was fine when he went there yesterday, so why did so many people die overnight? Or did he freeze to death? Is this impossible?

This was surprised. On the dragon throne, Emperor Tianwu's question also came to an end, saying, "Old Eight, I heard you went north of the city yesterday?"

Xuan Tianmo quickly stepped forward and replied, and told everything about yesterday. After saying that, he said, "My son left before dark, and nothing happened at that time. As for why so many people were frozen to death this morning... This matter still needs to be investigated."

The seventh prince Xuan Tianhua spoke and described a fact he had: "It is said that all the people who were frozen to death were wearing the new winter clothes sent by His Highness Sheng yesterday."

"What?" The eighth prince was shocked and subconsciously said: "This is impossible! You are lying!"

"Yeah?" Xuan Tianhua looked at him in confusion, "I am lying?"

All the court officials stopped doing it and said, "How can the Seventh Prince lie? It is impossible for anyone in the world to lie!" For everyone, Xuan Tianhua is a special existence, so no matter which party or battalion, the court officials of the court officials could not help but stand on Xuan Tianhua to maintain it when facing someone's accusations against Xuan Tianhua.

At the same time, the ninth prince Xuan Tianming also spoke and added: "Not only those who freeze to death, but many people are sick. Oh no, to be precise, they are poisoned." After he said that, he looked at Emperor Tianwu and said: "The main thing is to hold the responsibility accountable now, and the people who do evil on both sides cannot escape. The most urgent task is to deal with the corpse and treat the wounded. Baicaotang has dispatched all the doctors to the north of the city. The son-in-law asks his father to send the imperial physician in the palace to relieve the pressure of the doctors in the north of the city, and secondly, it is also a testimony to see why those people died and why they were poisoned."

This sentence was approved by everyone, and even the Eighth Prince couldn't say anything. He also wanted to know what was going on, but he felt that this matter was probably inseparable from the nobleman Yuan.

So, after the court dispersed, he did not rush out of the palace like others to rush to the north of the city, but hurried to Cunshan Palace to meet the nobleman Yuan.

The story in the court spread very quickly, and before Xuan Tianmo arrived, Concubine Yuan knew about it. After Xuan Tianmo entered the side hall, she took the initiative to ask, "What's going on? Why did so many people die suddenly? Did you tamper with it?"

Xuan Tianmo was stunned, "Me?" then shook his head violently, "Where did Mother's words start? I couldn't even make the untouchables win for me, so how could I kill them? On the contrary, I wanted to ask Mother's mother, what was going on with those new winter clothes? It is said that those who died were all wearing new winter clothes overnight and were frozen to death!"

Yuan Guiren was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment, "What does it have to do with me?"

Xuan Tianmo simply said directly: "Is there any problem with those clothes? What cotton did you use when making clothes? How much cotton did you use? Can you cut corners?"

Only then did Concubine Yuan realize that her son suspected that she had tampered with the materials for clothes, which caused the untouchables to be frozen to death, but she did not! Concubine Yuan felt very aggrieved: "I can be vague about other things, but this is related to your reputation. How could I do that kind of thing? Not only did I not cut corners, I also used all the best cotton, which was thick and warm, which was better than what I wore. Not only did the cotton, but the surface of the outer cover was made of forged. How could I even freeze to death with such a jacket? Even if I sleep on the streets, I wouldn't die directly!"

After hearing what Yuan said, Xuan Tianmo knew that the problem must not be his mother's wife. He was irritated and did not leave much here. He only comforted Yuan's nobleman, saying that he wanted to find out the matter immediately, so he hurriedly left the palace again.

At this time, Zhu Kongshan was already on the north side of the city early, crying while bowing to the people who were frozen to death to mourn. Xiaoyu's girl was no longer by her side. Just last night, she secretly pushed Xiaoyu into a well in Prince Sheng's Mansion. No one knew what she thought and did in her heart except herself.

Now, she is ready to tear her face with the Eighth Prince, and her determination to go all the way, and the plan has begun to be implemented. She bowed and said, "It's all my fault. It's all because I didn't think of checking those cotton coats. It's all because I believe that the Eighth Prince really wants to do good for the people, which has harmed you." As she said that, she tore the cotton coat in her hand open, and the black ragged cotton inside was exposed. Since there were still a lot of paper confetti inside and mixed with the cotton. Zhu Kongshan said, "I really didn't expect that Concubine Yuan and the Eighth Prince would actually do their tricks in the cotton coat! Where can these clothes mixed with waste paper confetti be called cotton coats? Where can they be kept warm? But I believed them and even used them as good things for you to wear! I didn't expect that so many people would freeze to death overnight, it was all my fault!"

The people in the north of the city were surrounded by Zhu Kongshan. Listening to her words, looking at the cotton coat she was holding. It was clearly made of brand new forged noodles, but it was filled with garbage, and there was not much real cotton. How could you not be frozen to death when wearing such clothes overnight?

For a moment, the crowd was infuriated. The surviving people scolded the Eighth Prince as a scum. Like his biological mother, Yuan Guiren, they were all tigers and leopards. Some people pointed at Zhu Kongshan and asked loudly: "Why didn't you remind us that the Eighth Prince is such a person? Why do you still have to help him speak?"

Zhu Kongshan collapsed and cried, kneeling on the ground and cried endlessly. She accused him loudly - "It's not that I don't say it, it's that I don't dare to say it! The Eighth Prince beat me every day, and he... he... he even occupied my body! You call me hate Bodhisattva every day, but only I know that I am not worthy of the name of Bodhisattva, and I am an unclean person. He forced me to do things for him and forced me to gain a good reputation for him. If I don't follow any of it, he either beats or scolds me. I am a weak woman, a broken flower and a broken willow, and I really have no ability to resist!"

Zhu Kongshan's words made the crowd up again. The beggars who survived by chance stood up and spoke for Zhu Kongshan-"Miss Zhu's family said that all this had nothing to do with the Eighth Prince. We have known it for a long time and told you secretly. But the Eighth Prince will beat Miss Zhu, so we dare not say it explicitly. Don't blame Miss Zhu anymore. She was so miserable by the Eighth Prince. We should avenge her!"

"Yes! Take revenge on Miss Zhu!" people shouted loudly.

But Zhu Kongshan waved his hands repeatedly, "No, I don't need anyone to avenge me, I just can't stand what the Eighth Prince did. I just want to tell everyone the truth and let everyone not be fooled again. But I am already a broken body and never thought of continuing to live, and I am not worthy of living in this world again."

She was crying and talking. Her poor appearance made the people cry. Some even said, "Miss, you are so good, you are all killed by the Eighth Prince. You have to live well. You must not be unable to think too much because of this!"

On this side, Zhu Kongshan led a bunch of people to cry and make a fuss, and told the Eighth Prince and Concubine Yuan all the time. The girl from Prince Sheng's Mansion stood aside and stared at all, unable to understand what evil Zhu Kongshan was so angry that she suddenly made such a move?

On the other side, due to a large number of people in the north of the city and serious illness, Baicaotang dispatched all the doctors to come here to rescue the patient. At this time, the seriously injured people were found. In addition to frostbite, there were signs of poisoning. They even checked the bodies and found that not everyone was simply frozen to death, and some people died of poisoning.

People didn't understand why they were poisoned. At this time, Zhu Kongshan suddenly said, "Oh no! It must be the newly transported food yesterday! The food brought by the Eighth Prince!" After that, he got up from the ground and ran to the porridge shed, like crazy.

Behind, a large number of people followed him until Zhu Kongshan came to the porridge shed in the Shengwang Mansion, and brought the remaining porridge from it from it, and then brought it to the doctor of Baicaotang. When the doctor of Baicaotang confirmed that the porridge was poisonous, Zhu Kongshan suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted to the sky: "Eighth Prince! Why do you want to do this? It's enough to harm me alone! It's enough to kill my mother! Why do you still harm these poor people! Why?"

She cried and accused, and the emotions of the people were also picked up. People shouted loudly: "The Eighth Prince harmed the people! The prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people! The Eighth Prince deserves ten thousand deaths! The Eighth Prince deserves ten thousand deaths!"

The shouts of the people in the north of the city spread throughout every corner of the capital. A large number of people rushed to the streets. There were shouts from these poor people everywhere in the southeast, west and north, and they all shouted that the Eighth Prince would pay their lives and give them justice.

Feng Yuheng sat in the Royal Palace, with the sound outside heard aroused, and Huang Quan was a little anxious: "Why don't we go out and have a look! Miss, do you think the emperor will believe it? These things should be done by Zhu Kongshan, right? The Eighth Prince, who has done everything he has done, can distinguish between him, let alone that he was really framed this time? Will he get rid of his relationship with him in the end? It's all the blame for Zhu Kongshan alone?"

Feng Yuheng shrugged, "That was also the reason Zhu Kongshan was self-destructed. He used this method to harm the people. Even if she did not die, I would send her a trip. It was all about their own affairs. No matter what the result was, it was all unfavorable to Yu Laoba. What's more, Zhu Kongshan is not a stupid person. She knows how to make Laoba difficult to turn over. Let's take a look. It's just that he is pitiful to those victims and blames me for being negligent. If I had known that she would be so cruel, I would not have watched those people die." She sighed helplessly and said to Huang Quan: "You can go north to the city and tell the people in Baicaotang that you should do your best to treat them. No matter how much the price you pay or how much money you spend, as long as you have hope of rescuing, you can't give up!"
