Chapter 1534 Leak

This is no different from lifting your trousers and denying people. It is obviously an irresponsible performance to avoid responsibility.

Moreover, not only disrespecting the woman, but also insulting the woman.

However, Concubine Yi is now the first to have a false pregnancy and break promises, causing the emperor to become suspicious.

Then, the emperor can't care so much.

At that time, the emperor didn't know who to trust or not.

I trusted Concubine Yi wrongly, but I didn't trust him and the empress.

Fortunately, now the emperor trusts both him and the queen.

After Su Peisheng returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he told the fourth master the truth.

In the early morning of the next day, fourth master went to court early.

At this moment, Fourth Master was sitting on the gold-painted dragon-wood chair at the top of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Next, civil and military officials stood on both sides, saluting loudly: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

"Everyone is in peace." Fourth Master's deep voice sounded in the sky above the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the officials below got up, Ma Qi was one of them.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw the emperor above him, looking at him with eyes that could kill people.

As a result, he only glanced at it, then lowered his head guiltily.

Why did he feel that the emperor looked at him differently today?

The last time he leaked secrets to neighboring countries, the emperor didn't punish him, not to mention that he didn't do anything bad during this period.

Just when Ma Qi was thinking this way, Su Peisheng, who was at the top, spread out a bright yellow imperial decree, and screamed at the officials below:

"By God's favor, the emperor summoned and said: According to the trial results submitted by the ministers of the imperial court, Ma Qi, the minister of the prime minister's affairs, committed two crimes of high treason, one crime of deception, three crimes of usurpation, two crimes of madness, four crimes of greed, and corruption. Three crimes, a total of fifteen serious crimes!"

"In addition, when Ma Qi signed a treaty with a neighboring country, he leaked secrets to the neighboring country, received tens of thousands of taels of silver from the neighboring country, and told the neighboring country all the attitude and opinions of the Qing Dynasty, causing heavy losses to the Qing Dynasty. These traitors and thieves will now He was demoted to a commoner, his title was cut, his mansion was copied, and the patriarchal mansion was banned forever!"

The titles are all cut off, so that future generations will not be able to inherit the title, and they can only be ordinary people for generations.

Hearing such an imperial decree, Ma Qi panicked and quickly knelt down in the middle.

It can be said that he crawled to the middle.

Ma Qi kowtowed to the fourth master: "Your Majesty, this slave has been wronged, this slave has really been wronged, please ask your majesty to see clearly..."

Compared to Ma Qi begging for mercy, the other ministers thought he deserved it.

Su Peisheng, who read the imperial decree, looked at Ma Qi with disdain.

Some time ago, Ma Qi signed treaties with neighboring countries on behalf of the Qing Dynasty.

As Minister of the Prime Minister's Affairs Wang, he should fight for the interests of the Qing Dynasty when the two sides negotiate.

But instead of fighting for it, he also leaked secrets to neighboring countries, leaving the Qing Dynasty passive.

In the end, not only did it fail to achieve the maximum benefit, but it caused heavy losses to the Qing Dynasty.

After the emperor knew about it at the time, he didn't deal with Ma Qi immediately.

Instead, he was rewarded, he was appointed an official and a noble, and his beloved concubine was made Ma Qi's adopted daughter, which was obviously flattering him.

He thought that because Ma Qi was the founding father of the country, the emperor was not willing to punish him.

In recent days, Ma Qi has become more and more unaware of who he is. He has the feeling that he is the overlord of the Qing Dynasty. No matter what he did wrong, the emperor will not do anything to him because of the credit he made when he became the throne.

As a result, Ma Qi himself became even more rampant in the court, which aroused extreme disgust from everyone.

The important ministers in the court saw that he was not happy, and one by one, they brought out the old sesame and rotten millet and impeached Ma Qi.

The emperor then used the impeachment of the ministers to severely punish Ma Qi.

In this way, everyone would not say that he, the emperor, wanted to punish Ma Qi.

It was because the ministers were all on the paper, Ma Qi provoked public outrage, and was a traitor, so he had to be punished as a last resort.

This is strategic deception!

However, because Ma Qi is the founding father of the country, the emperor still cared about the friendship between the monarch and his ministers who fought together in the past, and did not kill Ma Qi, nor did he punish the nine clans.

Compared with Nian Gengyao back then, Nian Gengyao committed the crime of treason.

Conspiracy is the biggest crime for an emperor, and this is to grab the throne.

In front of the supreme imperial power, no one is allowed to violate it, as long as there is a slight hint of rebellion, not to mention the monarch and his ministers, even father and son will have to turn their faces.

Ma Qi's biggest crime is that he became a traitor who leaked secrets because of greed.

This is also the reason why he was only imprisoned in the clan mansion and survived.

At this moment, regardless of how Ma Qi complained, Fourth Master just looked at Ma Qi coldly, as if looking at a clown.

He had been investigated for these crimes long ago, and he had considered them carefully, so how could he listen to Ma Qi's one-sided words.

Fourth Master tightened his cold eyes, waved and said, "Take it down!"

A deafening thunderclap sounded in the hall.

Soon, Ma Qi was taken down by the guards.

Immediately afterwards, fourth master discussed some important government affairs with the ministers.

During this period, some ministers were still immersed in the fear of being demoted if Ma Qi was such a big official.

Not to mention officials like them, they have to be more careful, and they have to be an official useful to the court.

There are also some people who are thinking that they originally thought that the emperor was trying to prevent the Ulanara family from dominating and making great achievements.

This is the technique of balance, and the Rafucha family and the Ulanara family contend.

Because once there are important officials who make great achievements, they may rebel and threaten the emperor's throne.

Only by allowing two ministers of similar strength to check each other can they not put their minds on the throne.

Now it seems that this is not the case.

The emperor simply wanted to praise and kill Ma Qi.

Otherwise, Ma Qi would not be resolved so quickly.

When Shengzu was in power, Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu were deadly enemies.

The ministers wrote a book and impeached Nalan Mingzhu for monopolizing the government, forming a party for private interests, sharing power with the government, and even taking bribes.

The emperor beat Nalan Mingzhu to Ruzong's mansion, but after a few days, he released it again.

Let Qi and Suo'etu continue to check each other.

The purpose is not to let Suo'etu alone be the biggest party in the DPRK.

But now, Ma Qi's actions are obviously not as serious as Mingzhu's crime back then.

But the emperor resolutely rectified Ma Qi and let the Ulanala family dominate.

Although the Fucha family is powerful, Ma Qi is not the only one.

But Ma Qi is one of the few in the court who can speak, and he is the leading representative of the Fucha family.

Now that Ma Qi has fallen, the power of the Fucha family has weakened a lot.

On the other hand, in the harem, it seems that the queen empress from the Ulanara family is the only one who dominates.

Half an hour later, fourth master left first and went to court.

After coming down to court, he issued two more holy decrees to the harem.

One is: "By God's blessing, the emperor summoned and said: Fucha's noble man has lost his virtue, so he is reduced to a promise, stripped of his title, and imprisoned in the side hall of Changchun Palace to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors. Hereby!"
