Chapter 79 Xuan Jiangsong enters the palace
When the Duke of Huguo mentioned Jiang Song, everyone was stunned. Although Jiang Song was just a small man from the fifth rank and sixth department, four years ago, all officials were impressed by his father, Jiang Mianhuo, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, and even the death of the Supreme Emperor was related to this.
Everyone held their breath and secretly looked at Emperor Jinghe. Qin Muye glanced at Duke Ku, looking inexplicably.
Huang Tong, the Minister of War, saw Duke Hunting, looked at him with a smile, had to say "haha" twice awkwardly, and then answered, "It is reasonable that Lord Jiang works in the Essence and Food Department, and it is also reasonable to be proficient in this."
The Ministry of Rites' Essence and Food Office is in charge of banquets, beans, and wine. Huang Tong said this, and all officials were accustomed to it. The left prime minister raised his glass and mudded, "I wish the Great Zhou a thousand years, long live long live long."
"Long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long. "The officials immediately followed.
Just as Meng Huizhou and Yu Changjin had just given him a breath, they suddenly heard the attendant ask, "Where is Jiang Song?"
The Ministry of Rites's official discussion was from the fifth rank. There were many officials of this rank in the six ministries. No one paid attention to whether he came or not. All the officials looked back and looked for Jiang Song from the corner closest to the doors and windows of Xuande Hall.
Seeing that no one was out of the line, everyone looked at the Minister of Rites again. Seeing that Tao Sizheng could not escape, he hurriedly stepped out of the line, "Long live back, Jiang Songding has not returned to the court."
Yes, yes! Meng Huizhou and Yu Changjin nodded quickly.
Xiao Junping, the Dali Temple Minister, who is extremely sensitive to numbers and dates, questioned, "Mr. Tao, Jiang Song's father died on August 16, the first year of Jinghe. It was time for the Dingyou period to expire in November last year."
Tao Sizheng secretly scolded Xiao Junping for being troubled and quickly explained, "Long live, Jiang Song's father has more than half of his death, and his grandmother has died, so he has not returned yet."
"That's not right!" Xiao Junping said again, "According to our court's laws and regulations, those who lost their ancestors during Dingyou will be extended from twenty-seven months to thirty months. According to the order, Jiang Song should have expired on November 17 last year."
The censor of the Censorate immediately caught the conversation, "Did Jiang Songding never go to the Ministry of Rites to work after his expiration of his term?"
Tao Sizheng remained silent, obviously accusing that Jiang Song had never returned to the Ministry of Rites to cancel the leave. At this time, Jiang Song's friend, Lu Zhengchang, the priest of the Ministry of Rites, risked his life to leave, "There is a humble minister, Lu Zhengchang, the priest of the Ministry of Rites, has a kindness."
Seeing Lu Zhengchang come out, Meng Huizhou's heart was in his throat again.
"Talk." Jing Hedi was correct.
Lu Zhengchang said loudly, "Weichen once saw Jiang Song returning to the Ministry of Rites in October and November last year, but we were busy with government affairs and had never asked much."
This was said extremely perfectly. Du Haian looked back at Lu Zhengchang and remembered this person.
The Duke of Huguo said again, "Jiang Songding's sorrow has not returned but is concerned about the government. He sent the meat to the military camp, which is quite the legacy of his grandfather, Wending Duke Jiang Yongming."
Emperor Jinghe was also caught in memory, "I remember my father told me that Jiang Yongming worked diligently for the people and stabilized the country, so his father posthumously named him Duke Wending after his death."
The Grand Tutor Yin Qian stood up, "When the Supreme Emperor was in power, he mentioned to the old minister several times that Jiang Yongming was a wise minister in charge of the country."
Several old censors also stood up, recalling the great achievements of the Supreme Emperor during his reign, and by the way, they mentioned Jiang Yongming.
Jiang Yongming died, his wife and son died, and his grandson Jiang Song was still concerned about the court in his sorrow. This moved Emperor Jinghe and raised his hand and said, "Xuan Jiang Song."
Du Hai'an and Lu Zhengchang were happy. Meng Huizhou, who thought Jiang Song had already died of blood in prison, had a cold sweat on his forehead. Yu Changjin, who was imprisoning Jiang Song for a little money, wanted to go back and kill Kong Neng. He rolled out and said, "Long live, I have a love."
"speak!"
"On the 25th day of the 12th lunar month, Jiang Song had a fight with people in the West City and is now detained in the Western Military and Ma Si Prison."
I don't know that there are still other ministers who look at each other tacitly, and they look at Princess Leyang's uncle, right prime minister Qin Tianye.
The Censor Jing Jirao stepped out and questioned Yu Changjin, "Dare you ask Lord Yu, the court officials have a dispute with the people, according to our Great Zhou law, what should we do?"
According to the law, he should report to the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites. Yu Chang sweated and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Long live the life of life, there is no need to distract yourself from this small case. Since Jiang Song is involved in the case, let the Five City Military Affairs Office and the Ministry of Justice interrogate clearly." Qin Tianye said.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Jinghe came today and was very nervous, "Xuan!"
When the eunuch passed the imperial eunuch saw that the right prime minister stopped talking, he quickly responded and walked out quickly. However, the location of the imperial eunuch was changed from the Jiang family to the Western Military and Ma Si Prison.
In the prison, Jiang Ling stole in the middle, Jiang Sanlang snored in the quilt, and Jiang Song stared at the poisonous dumplings that were cooling on the table.
When the noise came from outside the prison, Jiang Song suddenly picked up one dumpling after another and put it into his mouth. Jiang Ling turned around when he heard the sound, and was so scared that his little black face changed, "Uncle, you..."
Jiang Song raised his hand and whispered, "It's okay, what I eat is non-toxic. No matter what happens later, no matter who asks you, don't say you know that dumplings are poisonous, do you understand?"
Jiang Ling nodded, "My nephew knows, and my nephew won't let Sanlang say that."
Jiang Song patted Jiang Ling with relief. When he heard the eunuch's sharp voice from outside the prison, he picked up a poison dumpling and put it into his mouth.
"Jiang Song, the Minister of Rites, received the order--" surrounded by fire, the eunuch passed the order into the dungeon and stood outside the fence.
"The criminal Jiang Song received the order." Jiang Song knelt down on the ground, Jiang Ling slapped Jiang Sanlang hard and pulled him to kneel behind him.
"Long live oral order, Jiang Song, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, met with him." After the eunuch passed the oral order of the emperor, he smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang quickly pack up and go to the palace with the she family, and change his clothes on the carriage."
When entering the palace, the saint naturally could not go in a mess. The prison head quickly prepared hot water to help Jiang Song clean up, and kept saying good things in his mouth.
Jiang Sanlang Mengli asked, "Dad, can we go home?"
Jiang Song turned around and said, "Long live Xuan and his father came to the palace to reply. You are here to wait for your father to come back and don't cause trouble."
When Jiang Sanlang heard that Long Live was about to see his father, he was so scared that he didn't dare to ask Jiang Ling until his father was surrounded by eunuchs. "Brother Ling, what should I do?"
Jiang Ling scared him, "Do you want to die or live?"
"What's wrong with wanting to live?" Jiang Sanlang became even more scared.
Jiang Ling stretched out his little black claws gloomy, "If you want to live, from now on until we are put home, you can't say another word, you will cry if someone asks you. If you can't do it, you will have to be skinned and cramped by the executioner and cut into pieces."
The streets on the first day of the Lunar New Year were lively. Jiang Song endured the spasms and pains in his stomach. It was not until the carriage was about to arrive at Huichun Hospital that he bit his tongue and pulled the curtain, and threw himself down next to the driver and rolled.
"Father-in-law, it's not good!" The coachman was shocked and called out quickly.
