Concubine Shuhui died the night she was deprived of her title.Mo Jiu went to the clan's mansion and said to Prince Ning: "Common Ning, the saint took away the titles of concubine and you, but didn't intend to kill you. If you don't speak again, your mother's funeral will be ignored. .”

Prince Ning's eyes were about to burst, and he threw out a sentence after a while, "Burn me and my mother together."

Prince Ning's words frightened Mo Jiuyi. He didn't expect Prince Ning to have such a plan, and he would be ashamed!

"Men Ning, don't you care about your son and daughter?"

Prince Ning's clenched fist trembled violently. His children and grandchildren were imprisoned in the opposite cell, and he dared not open his eyes to see his own children every time.He thought he could afford to fail, but now he's starting to regret it.It is better to let the parents be beheaded and exiled, and let the family be exterminated, than to add all my children - born to be reduced to prisoners.

"Master Ning, I advise you to talk to the sage. Exchange those big figures from the White Lotus Sect for your children. Otherwise, if you are exiled, how many of them do you think will survive?"

"Exile? The saint will give them a way out?"

"Yes, the saint doesn't want to be instigated by outsiders and lose his own blood. The saint thinks about your children, but they are all the blood of the emperor Daxing."

Prince Ning looked at Mo Jiu, unable to believe Mo Jiu's words.

Mo Jiu continued to attack Prince Ning, "The saint has already sent Madam Xin to be with her daughter."

Prince Ning's eyelids twitched.He regretted that his family was too careless to leave so many invisible people and things in the mansion; when the prince's mansion was besieged, he was forced to take risks by those people and things.He couldn't believe Mo Jiu's words now, what he did was a real regicide.

"Men Ning, our family is waiting for you for three incense sticks. If you don't want to talk about it, you can talk about it later. Our family has nowhere to find the remains of the first concubine for you."

Prince Ning sat down and closed his eyes without looking at Mo Jiu, but the fists placed by his side trembled more violently, which also exposed his heart to Mo Jiu, he was not as firm as before.

Mo Jiu and him can afford it.

Prince Ning is a filial person, otherwise he would not have gotten involved with the White Lotus Sect for the sake of Concubine Shuhui and her family, and would have pushed himself into a desperate situation.

Speaking of Prince Ning's matter, he was dragged in by his family.

In the beginning, it was Concubine Shuhui's grandfather who was corrupt and perverted the law, but was caught by the caring people of the White Lotus Sect.Then Concubine Shuhui's father became their support in the officialdom under the auspices of the White Lotus Sect.The trap got deeper and deeper, and then there was the incident of the White Lotus Sect coercing Concubine Shuhui, cooperating with Concubine Chen's daughter, and murdering Emperor Daxing.

After the death of Emperor Daxing, when it was time to appoint a prince to succeed him, many officials in the imperial court joined forces to support the son of Concubine Shuhui to succeed him.But the empress dowager considered that among the three princes who were about the same age, only the current saint lost his mother, and for the benefit of the Zheng family, she finally chose the present to succeed her.

Fortunately, the empress dowager's father was still powerful in the court at that time, and the empress dowager immediately chose the fathers of Jia Daishan and Lin Hai for the saint to be the saint's companions, and won the joint support of the old Rong Guogong and the old Wen Dinghou .After surviving the hardships and chaos in the first few years, he finally stabilized the Tu family's country.

The three sticks of incense were about to burn out, Mo Jiu sighed, and wanted to leave, Prince Ning called Mo Jiu to stop.

"Mo Jiu, can I bury my concubine first?"

Mo Jiu shook his head, "Time has been delayed for a long time, and it's useless to say anything else. If the saint says it, he won't break his promise."

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the sage, Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and the Minister of Dali Temple are being harassed by the crown prince.

The sage patiently explained to the prince, "Ming Yun, this brothel has existed since ancient times, and it is impossible to ban it."

The prince also knew that it was impossible to ban brothels immediately, and he just wanted to get the best possible chance in this matter.

"Father, if the brothel is not banned, it will be inevitable that some people will continue to abduct and sell girls, and even young boys to Nanfeng Hall. Ban Nanfeng Hall first, is it okay?"

The sage hates people who love Longyang deeply. The prince's proposal was immediately approved by the sage.

The prince saw that the sage nodded and banned the Nanfeng Pavilion, so he continued to say: "Father, if you don't want to ban the brothel, you just want to think about it. If these women marry normally, how many more people will they have in 30 years? If the court Regular or irregular review and spot checks are carried out on brothels. Whenever a woman in a brothel is abducted or sold to a brothel by a middleman, the imperial court will punish the owner of the brothel: a fine of money, a heavy fine! The first penalty If he works for nothing in a year; the second time, he will be fined a little heavier. Except for money, he will not be able to get up after half a year. If there are several people who are bosses, he will be beaten; Well, the whole family is also exiled, and then the brothel is brought back to the court's Jiaoshifang. In this way, let's see who dares to buy abducted girls to be prostitutes?!"

Because of the women in the brothels, too many were trafficked.When dealing with the old crows in the brothel, the crown prince insisted on treating them as serious crimes of abducting and trafficking people and forcing them into prostitution.The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple couldn't say that they couldn't speak to the prince, but they couldn't be the one who interceded behind the scenes, so they reported the matter to the saint.

The prince is listening to the government now, but the final opinion on political affairs is still up to the sage.

Yang Shangshu and Liu Siqing talked about the difficulty of identifying human trafficking and being sold by his own parents. The prince was so angry that he pointed to Yang Shangshu and said: "Officials of the Ministry of Punishment receive the salary of the imperial court. It should be based on the number of crimes that can be caught, which is excellent and excellent, but it should be based on the place where the government orders of the entire scene can go, and children can be safely allowed to go out to play, so that they can be excellent."

Yang Shangshu looked at the angry prince. For the first time, he felt that facing such a pure and kind prince is really more worrying!

He carefully defended, "His Royal Highness, what you are talking about has to be the Datong world, so that you can not pick up lost things on the road and never close your door at night. I don't like this kid, it's too common to get lost."

"No, there is no guide, how do these trafficked people cross the state? If the yamen in the capital are more serious, how can these trafficked women be allowed to pick up customers in brothels in the middle of the capital for several years, and they haven't asked once. Didn't she get trafficked into a brothel?"

Yang Shangshu found out that he couldn't confront the prince. If he continued, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment would be beaten to the point of dereliction of duty by the prince.He glanced at Liu Siqing, but found that Liu Siqing was silent.Since entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he has been pretending to be dumb.Yang Shangshu was so angry that he really wanted to yell at Liu Siqing, you and I reported to the saint that the matter was difficult, and now you are pretending to be dumb and pretending to be a good person in front of the prince?Well, I won't say anymore, let's see how it ends in the end.

Liu Siqing kept pretending to be dumb, and when Yang Shangshu stopped talking, the atmosphere in the Hall of Mental Cultivation became awkward.

The sage saw that the crown prince was resolutely unwilling to give in, and that the rampant illegal human trafficking had been repeatedly banned, which really made people scratch their heads.

"Ming Yun, what do you want to do? You write a note, and then discuss it at the big and small court meetings and the cabinet."

The crown prince nodded, and the next day he handed a thick booklet to the saint.

This brochure not only establishes a new regulation on the entry of middlemen, but also details the previous day's discussion on the sale and purchase of human beings. Any parents who deceive a good girl, saying that they want to sell their children to be maids, and finally sell them to brothels, the whole family Playing the board and exile and so on.

The sage twitched his mouth when he saw the crown prince's notes. Especially at the end, the crown prince also suggested that the Ministry of Officials add the number of lost people in their jurisdiction, the number of people who were forced to be prostitutes, etc., into the assessment of officials in prefectures and counties.

In front of everyone in the cabinet, the sage asked the prince: "Ming Yun, it is too difficult for you to implement this book. What do you want to achieve?"

"Father, my son wants the people who have paid taxes. After they support the civil and military officials, they can get the protection of the court. Wherever the father's decree goes, the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Although there are many requirements in this brochure It’s been a little bit, and now it’s a little troublesome and difficult to do, but one thing can give the children of the people a little more guarantee. Father, you have always taught your sons and ministers not to judge good and evil by big and small. Things should not be judged by difficulty but by whether they should be considered.”

The sage nodded, the prince gave a solution, now it's up to the officials.

He slowly said to the elders in the cabinet: "If all of you here, if someone's son or daughter is lost, do you want to continue the old way, or choose the new way that the prince is now?"

The sage asked, is this a matter of choice? !

"I transcribed the prince's scriptures and sent them to the ministries and the state capitals below. If officials have different opinions, they can submit supplementary scriptures. If there is any objection, the Shangming scriptures will be read out at the court."

The thousands of words in the hearts of the cabinet ministers just want to be combined into one sentence for the sage-you are ruthless!

As long as he is not a courtier with water in his head, who would take the risk of reading the scriptures at the court meeting, saying that he has objections to the court's decision to crack down on human trafficking and force good men into prostitution.

Do you want to be famous, do you want to be a human being?

In less than ten days after the noisy brothel incident, the women who were trafficked to the brothel and the boys who were trafficked to the Nanfeng Pavilion all regained their personal freedom. These people can choose to go home. Registered.Those who can't find a way to make a living can choose to go to Huangzhuang to learn crafts, such as blacksmithing, weaving, farming and so on.

As for such a change in the capital, those who are most unsuited to it are those who come from Jiangnan to participate in the Spring Festival.This time in previous years was the busiest time for brothel business in the capital.But now if you want to find flowers and ask willows in the capital, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

All the pornographic establishments in the capital were closed for the crime of prostitution.
