Chapter 309: The Empress of Renming Palace Responds to the Officials of Yanfu Palace for Gift
Chapter 309 The Queen of Renming Palace is held accountable, and the officials of Yanfu Palace present gifts
A few days later, the first person to come to Li Yunze to plead for mercy was not the imperial concubines, but the Queen Zhu Lian.
Historically, this queen was also taken away to the Kingdom of Jin during the reign of Jingkang.
Needless to say, there was no need to mention the humiliation and torture along the way. After arriving at Huining Mansion, Zhao Huan, Zhao Ji and other men were taken to the Ancestral Temple to perform the ceremony of leading the sheep.
Just tie the thing with a rope and drag it around in a circle like a sheep to humiliate it.
The empress dowager of Zhao Ji and the empress Zhu Lian of Zhao Huan were presented to the palace for the bathing ceremony.
The men's sheep-taking ceremony was like that, and the Queen Mother's bath was naturally even more unsightly.
The tortured Zhu Lian couldn't bear the humiliation and drowned himself in despair.
He drowned himself in the bathtub.
Compared with those noble ladies who were tortured to death, and compared with those noble ladies who served the savages to give birth to children, they can be considered to be strong.
"The Prime Minister is right."
Zhu Lian was very beautiful, and she looked even more noble in the queen's palace attire. She summoned Li Yunze in her palace, Renming Hall.
Li Yunze, with clear eyes, nodded calmly, "What are the Queen's orders?"
"Prime Minister." Zhu Lian bit the corner of his mouth with a look of embarrassment on his face, "The official is seriously ill, and I hope the Prime Minister can order the hospital to treat me."
"Seriously ill?" Li Yunze was surprised, "How could it be? Could it be that you have caught a cold?"
A flash of anger flashed in Zhu Lian's beautiful eyes.
You still have the nerve to ask what's going on, you weren't the one who got beaten!
This was really an injustice to Li Yunze. He just asked Hu Cheng to 'gently' teach Zhao Huan a lesson, telling him to be more honest and stop being so stubborn.
Maybe it was because Hu Cheng was eager to get his brother-in-law to the throne quickly so that his maternal relative could follow suit, so when he started, he was a little bit too heavy.
Unable to suppress his anger, Zhu Lian couldn't help but say, "It's not the cold, it's the injury caused by Hu Cheng, the commander of the Imperial City Guards!"
"Is this happening?" Li Yunze was shocked. "Hu Cheng is so bold, it is simply lawless. Someone, hurry up and summon Hu Cheng."
Naturally, the two sides just sat there. Li Yunze casually chatted, and Zhu Lian, who frowned, also responded casually.
When Hu Cheng came over in a hurry, Li Yunze immediately slammed the table and yelled, "You are so brave, you dare to hurt the official family! Do you know your guilt!"
Seeing that Hu Cheng, who was arrogant and domineering in the palace, was reprimanded, Zhu Lian felt really relieved.
This prisoner in the palace really disgusted them.
Not only were all the maids and maids cleared out, but the entire palace was also sealed tightly.
Not to mention internal and external ventilation, even the mice in the palace cannot escape.
Moreover, this person also strictly controlled the catering standards and all expenses, ate simple meals, wore old clothes, and even organized people to cultivate fields in the palace.
How pitiful is this, how have noble ladies like them ever suffered like this!
Hu Cheng was frightened and quickly responded, "Prime Minister, how dare I let the official get hurt? The official accidentally fell down."
"Oh? Is that really like this?" Li Yunze looked at Zhu Lian in surprise, "Queen, he said that the official fell down himself."
Zhu Lian was so angry that he squeezed his little hands hard and said, "Nonsense! It was obviously you who beat me with a whip!"
"Huh?" Li Yunze glared, "Is that really true?"
Hu Cheng continued to cry for injustice, "I'm sorry, Prime Minister. How can a subordinate have the courage to whip an official? It was clearly the official who fell down. If you don't believe it, you can ask the official to come here to identify me."
Li Yunze nodded slowly and looked at Zhu Lian: "Empress, can you please invite the officials to come over?"
Zhu Lian breathed a long sigh of relief, completely admitting defeat.
If Zhao Huan was really called over, he would never dare to say to his face that he was injured by Hu Cheng. He would only dare to say that he fell.
She knew Zhao Huan's temperament too well, so there was no need to ask him to suffer the injustice again.
Zhu Lian, who was feeling aggrieved, glared at Li Yunze hatefully, "Prime Minister, if you have the ambition of Wei Wu, please treat the officials and the Supreme Emperor well. Even if it is really Wei Wu, he will treat Emperor Xian kindly."
"Why did the Queen say this?" Li Yunze frowned, "How could you speak so unfavorably of a minor minister? Forget it, I'll go find the official later and hear from him whether he is not as good as Emperor Xian."
After saying that, he didn't listen to Zhu Lian's excuse and got up directly and went out to Yanfu Palace.
Yanfu Palace is so big that it used to be lit up with music and music every night.
But now, there are not many people in Nuoda's palace at all. Except for the patrolling soldiers, the maids and chamberlains who were everywhere in the past have all disappeared.
Under the leadership of Hu Cheng, Li Yunze and Zhu Lian came to the sheepfold where Zhao Huan lived.
Zhu Lian burst into tears when he saw Zhao Huan, who was wearing a shabby sheepskin coat and looking disheveled, squatting on the ground writing a letter of repentance.
This is an official family, to be treated like this is simply unconscionable!
Zhao Huan raised his head and saw Li Yunze and Hu Cheng. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he sat on the ground shivering.
Seeing this, Zhu Lian hurriedly rushed over to help and comfort him, "Don't be afraid of the officials, it's just death at worst. We won't tolerate his abuse like this!"
In Zhu Lian's view, if he wanted to kill him, he would have killed him long ago. If he didn't kill him, then it would still be useful. If he was useful, he should talk about the conditions. At least he could live like a human being.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Huan pushed her away with an embarrassed look, scolded her with a straight face, "Don't talk nonsense! I want to cultivate myself here, what does it have to do with my beloved?"
Zhu Lian was dumbfounded, thinking that Zhao Huan had been beaten crazy, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took his arm to comfort him, "Don't be afraid of the officials. This person is afraid of the long-lasting words of the people in the world, so he torments the officials. As long as he
us."
"You woman are so noisy!"
Zhao Huan, whose expression changed drastically, hurriedly pushed Zhu Lian away again, scolded him angrily, "If I want to be a Qingxiu, what does that have to do with Aiqing? You actually provoke me and the prime minister, you are really uneasy and kind."
Having said this, Zhao Huan turned around, bowed his hands to Li Yunze and said in salute, "Prime Minister, this person is driven mad, and he wants to kill her, so he will be deposed!"
Zhu Lian was pushed to the ground, with tears in his beautiful eyes, filled with endless anger and disappointment.
She finally saw that Zhao Huan was not crazy, but was cowardly and cowardly.
Waste, pure waste!
This is really not a malicious attempt to slander Zhao Huan, but their father and son are just such weird people in history.
When I was in Five Kingdoms City, all kinds of cool operations simply exceeded the limit.
It's like his own woman gave birth to a child after being fucked by that thing, and she happily recognized it just so she could have one more mouthful of hot food.
As for father and son reporting each other for treason, being extremely humiliated and performing the sheep-taking ceremony, but not daring to resist at all, there are countless other tricks.
It is said that Yelu Yanxi, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom, was as useless as the two emperors of Huiqin, but Yelu Yanxi at least had the courage to escape.
Although he didn't run away and was killed, he was hundreds of times stronger than this strange father and son!
Li Yunze also clicked his tongue. Although he had known that this person was cowardly and incompetent, he never thought that he was so cowardly!
During the Jingkang period, if those who died for their country knew that they were loyal to such scum, they would not be able to rest in peace.
Li Yunze said nothing, but Zhao Huan was frightened, thinking that he would not forgive him.
In horror and fear, when he saw Zhu Lian who was still crying and wiping away his tears, he immediately stamped his feet: "Ai Qing, this woman is ignorant and lacks discipline. I will hand this person over to Ai Qing for nurturing, and let Ai Qing do whatever she wants."
Dispose of it!"
Hearing these words that refreshed his three views, even Li Yunze, who was used to seeing wind and rain, was stunned on the spot.
Is this still a human being? He is a complete scumbag.
Li Yunze was so happy when he came back to his senses that he almost whipped Wei Wu immediately.
Fortunately, he quickly recovered his composure and immediately scolded with a straight face, "Why do officials say this? I am a minister, so how can I molest Queen X?"
Then the conversation changed, "But if the Queen agrees, we can learn some musical knowledge."
Zhu Lian's pretty face over there turned red and white, and after a moment he just rolled his eyes and fainted with a 'chuck' sound.
"Ahem."
Li Yunze called to the maids accompanying Zhu Lian, "Send the queen back to the palace, and then recruit the imperial physician to treat her."
After Zhu Lian was sent away, Li Yunze carefully looked at Zhao Huan, who was obedient and kept his head down, not daring to look at him. He smiled slightly and asked Hu Cheng next to him, "I will add a big pig's trotter to the official family in the past few days."
"
When Zhao Huan over there heard this, he was overjoyed and saluted repeatedly, "Thank you, Prime Minister, thank you, Prime Minister!"
After Li Yunze and others left the sheepfold, Hu Cheng quickly arranged for people to deliver big pig hooves to Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan, who had not eaten meat for a long time, immediately started chewing the pig's trotters.
At this moment, Zhao Ji, who was in the sheep pen next door, pressed against the wall and shouted, "Da Lang, Da Lang!"
Zhao Huan didn't want to talk to him at first, but Zhao Ji still had many years of prestige, so he could only lean against the wall and respond, "What's the matter, father?"
"I heard what you said over there before, but I never heard it clearly." Zhao Ji asked about the smell of meat and swallowed hard, "Can you please tell me clearly what is going on?"
Zhao Huan was gnawing on the pig's trotters that he had never looked at before, while slowly telling what happened today.
After listening, Zhao Ji thought thoughtfully, "If the traitor is as good as Wei Wu, it would be easy to deal with it."
Zhao Ji, who had made up his mind, smelled the aroma of the meat and couldn't help shouting, "Good man, hurry up and share your meat with me."
"Da Lang, Da Lang?" Zhao Ji yelled for meat for a long time, but couldn't get the slightest response. He suddenly understood and cursed, "I should have painted you on the wall in the first place."
Li Yunze did not devote all his energy to Wei Wu's ambitions. He did not delay at all in terms of business matters.
The division and disintegration of the Western Army continued, and each general of the Western Army was gradually transferred and assigned to various places in Hebei as garrison envoys to deal with the threat of Liao and Jin Dynasties.
Han Shizhong and others were re-employed and went to Huaixi with their troops to conquer the rebel Chu King Wang Qing.
As for the internal affairs, the redundant soldiers, one of the three redundant soldiers in the Song Dynasty, have begun to be gradually dismantled.
Naturally, all those who were paid for free were immediately eliminated. Most of the military generals at all levels who were paid for free had their homes confiscated, so naturally no one would come forward to oppose them.
From the Forbidden Army in Bianliang City to the local Xiang Army, all the old, weak, sick and disabled were eliminated, and the remaining ones were strictly trained and reorganized into the Imperial Camp Forbidden Army.
All grains and salaries are paid in full and on time. Anyone who dares to deduct a penny or even a grain of grain will be directly dealt with by military law, and his or her home will also be ransacked.
The eliminated sergeants will not be ignored directly, but will be given fields to cultivate.
The ownership of the land belongs to the royal family, and it can be cultivated as desired but cannot be bought or sold.
As for severance pay and so on, of course there will be no shortage.
In terms of waste, a meal requires more than a hundred dishes. Cai Jing, whose kitchen is comparable to a factory, took the lead in dedicating his head. A meal requires hundreds of sheep. Officials and officials who can light tens of thousands of candles in one night.
The Supreme Emperor has also repented and started living in a sheepfold.
Experience life.
The Huashi Gang was directly abolished, miscellaneous fees in various places were directly canceled, and the court expenditure was significantly reduced.
Not to mention redundant officials. After many purges, not only are there no more redundant officials, there are even vacancies in many places.
Li Yunze didn't have the slightest worry about this. The Song Dynasty lacked everything except scholars who wanted to be officials.
These changes are only being promoted around Bianliang City for the time being, but as time goes by, wherever the army goes, it will immediately take on a new look.
Li Yunze knew very clearly that as long as he had soldiers and horses in one hand and money and food in the other, he could accomplish anything!
