The news that Jia Heng slashed the ear of King Qi's servant with a sword in the palace gate, although blocked by Dai Quan, the Chongping Emperor, spread in the palace in a short period of time, especially when Luo sent the inner prison to
Empress Song came to the ears of Empress Song who was inquiring about the news in Daming Palace.
As for the King of Qi being demoted, although it was in compliance with the decree, the great scholars who were on duty in the cabinet also heard about this letter, copied it in the Department of General Affairs, and circulated it to the six ministries and all provinces.
In Kunning Palace, Empress Song listened to the eunuch's narration about what happened at the palace gate. The chess piece picked up by her slender hands fell on the chess floor with a "clack". Under the willow leaf's thin eyebrows, her narrow, clear phoenix eyes,
Mingguang looked clearly at Concubine Duanrong opposite.
"Sister, this Jia Ziyu is really..." Empress Song Ruli Rui had a look of confusion on her snow-white face, as if she didn't know how to describe it.
When I think about the fact that the boss was not only demoted to Prince Qi, but also had his dignity severely reduced...
Even though I have repeatedly told myself in my heart that as the lord of the Sixth Palace in the Mother's World, I need to be broad-minded and kind to my bastard, I still feel happy from the bottom of my heart.
In the past few years, the two kings of Qi and Chu, as well as the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War, have made some achievements and gathered some middle and lower-level officials. It must be said that they still put a lot of pressure on Queen Song.
"This Jia Heng committed an attack at the gate of the palace, and the Holy Father didn't blame him?" Concubine Duanrong took the tea cup from the hand of a palace maid, her two petal-like pink lips pressed against the edge of the porcelain bowl, and took a sip.
She frowned and said.
"How can we say this is a murder? This Jia Ziyu is holding His Majesty's sword, as if His Majesty is here in person. Besides, it is just a small punishment or a big punishment." Empress Song's voice was clear and tactful. Although her tone was as calm as possible, the joy could still be seen.
Clues.
Concubine Duanrong's beautiful eyes flashed and she said softly: "Sister, what is this?"
In fact, she could also understand her sister's confusion. As long as her son was not established as the crown prince, she, the queen, would not be able to sit safely.
Empress Song was silent for a moment and said softly: Your Majesty said earlier that next year, when the palace is open to take charge of affairs, he will go to the Wucheng Military and Horse Department. As a mother, I always have to say a few words in advance to ask someone to take care of my son.
"
"Sister, you are on guard both inside and outside. If sister wants to see Jia Heng to talk, she needs to find a reason." A trace of worry appeared on Concubine Duanrong's soft and graceful face.
Even though her sister is the lord of the Sixth Palace, it does not mean that she can do as she pleases and must be bound by etiquette, laws and regulations.
Empress Song nodded, and suddenly something flashed in her mind. She turned her head and asked Xia Shouzhong, the old eunuch beside her, and said, "Is the eldest daughter of the Jia family in the palace now?"
Xia Shouzhong's wrinkled face showed a smile as he said: "I have a good memory. Jia Yuanchun is currently serving as a female historian in Kunning Palace. She is not feeling well today. She took a day off and is resting to take care of herself."
"In Kunning Palace?" Upon hearing this, Empress Song's beautiful face paused for a moment. Under the willow leaves' thin eyebrows, a trace of thought appeared in her narrow, clear phoenix eyes. After a while, her red lips opened softly and said: "Body."
It's not very convenient. Have you ever invited an imperial doctor? Go and ask someone to go to the imperial hospital to find the imperial doctor Zhang and give her a look. I will also go and have a look in the evening. She is the empress of meritorious service and the history of women in this palace. Why not?
Do you want to hear it?"
"I obey the empress's loving orders." Xia Shouzhong responded, and then ordered the eunuch to go to the Imperial Hospital.
When Queen Song saw Xia Shouzhong leave, she gently picked up the chess pieces and placed them in a corner of the chess floor. She regained her dignified and beautiful demeanor as a lady and said softly: "Wait a few days and wait until the end of the month.
When family members meet, just give Yuan Chun a favor and let them meet as siblings."
She is the Lord of the Sixth Palace, so she can still do this.
Concubine Duanrong nodded and said nothing more.
"How's Zhi'er's marriage going? She's grown up now." Empress Song suddenly mentioned Princess Xianning again.
When she mentioned her daughter's marriage, Duan Rong, a noble concubine, lived up to her name, and her calm and peaceful heart rippled, saying: "Since Xianning, I have seen the New Year, and I am already seventeen years old, but...
…”
Empress Song said: "I heard that Han Qi, the son of Uncle Jinxiang, is of marriageable age. What does my sister think?"
The princesses of Chen and Han were basically pick and choose among their military merits, and officials basically respected the princesses and kept them at a distance. Firstly, it would affect their official career, and secondly, their ambitions would not be expanded.
Especially more than ten years ago, after the prince consort of Jinyang Princess committed suicide because of the deposing of the crown prince, any official who had some pursuit was unwilling to marry the royal family.
"Han Qi has already made an engagement. Besides, Zhi'er has too high standards. How can she care about these young masters who are not good at martial arts? In the past two days... my sister also asked her, and she said that her third brother has not gotten married yet.
?Why is she panicking? She is either out hunting or reading a Three Kingdoms dialect book every day."
"The Storybook of the Three Kingdoms?" Empress Song pursed her lips, her bright eyes sparkling, and she chuckled: "Ran'er has also been reading this book recently. I didn't expect her to read it too. Speaking of which, if Jia Heng hadn't..."
If Jia Heng is not married, it would be a good idea for Zhi'er to marry Jia Heng, and she can also be the support of Ran'er and Wei'er. As for her age, she happens to be a junior in college and holds a gold brick, but now...
When she thought of Jia Heng marrying Qin's daughter, Empress Song sighed softly in her heart.
Let alone a princess, there is no reason for an official to be a concubine.
In this era, only the emperor, the concubines of the vassal king, and the side concubines can block the mouth of Youyou.
Otherwise, even if she is the equal wife of the prince of the country, ordinary officials will feel that they have disgraced their family.
It was not mentioned that Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong were chatting in the palace, but it was said that Jia Heng was wearing the Emperor's Sword hanging on his side of the carriage, mounted his horse, and Shi Shiran left the palace and walked along Zhuque Street towards Jingzhao Yamen.
He needed to discuss the matter of King Qi who had Liu You climbed out of the palace with Xu Lu of Jingzhao Yamen. Now that King Qi had been demoted to the title of Duke, the matter could only be brought to an end for the time being.
Jingzhao Yamen
Xu Lu was also sitting behind the case, with the Holy Inscription enshrined on the incense table beside him. He looked at Tongjian Fu Shi and frowned: "Fu Tongjian, Lai Sheng has been sentenced to execution. Report to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple for review.
You can be beheaded at the end of the month, and you will be in jail at Jingzhao Yamen, and you will have to be carefully guarded!"
Fu Dian nodded and said, "I will take note of your Lordship's instructions."
Thinking of the Lai family, Fu Shi felt a little unsettled at the moment. He only received five thousand taels of silver. Before he could introduce him, he heard that the Lai family had been confiscated by Yunhui General Jia Heng. Now the money is completely gone.
I found a hot potato and I didn’t know how to send it back even if I wanted to.
"We can't delay tonight. We need to go to Dong Weng's house and ask Dong Weng for help. Otherwise, if the incident happens, the consequences will be disastrous."
Fu Shi thought.
Suddenly, I saw a government servant coming quickly outside the government office and reported: "Sir, Master Jia, General Yunhui, wants to see you."
"Please come quickly." When Xu Lu heard this, his face moved slightly and he said in a deep voice. He looked at Fu Shi and said, "Let's go and greet you together."
Not long after, a young man wearing a flying fish suit and a black crown with a gauze-shaped mountain on his head strode forward with his sword in hand and entered the official hall.
"My official has met Xu Fuyin." Jia Heng said with a calm face and cupped his hands.
In fact, according to the rank, the third-level General Yunhui is also the third-level official, and the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture is also the third-level official. Jia Heng does not need to call him a subordinate, but firstly, because of Jia Zhen’s previous affairs, Xu Lu punished him impartially to show respect.
Firstly, Xu Lu was older than Jia Heng in terms of age. Thirdly, it was the norm in the officialdom of Chen and Han Dynasty that the nobles and the weak were the weakest, and the official power was tyrannical.
Xu Lu asked: "Master Jia, I heard that you captured Liu You in the Wucheng Bingma Division?"
Jia Heng said: "Liu You has been captured, and just last night, killers from the Sanhe Gang secretly sneaked into the Wucheng Bingma Division with the intention of killing people and silencing them! I was informed in advance that the bandits were captured. After a surprise interrogation overnight, they were already
I got an oral confession, but because the matter involved the country and the vassal, the subordinate officials did not dare to take charge of it. Although I went to the palace early in the morning to ask for an audience with the Holy One, I just returned from the palace."
Jia Heng finished describing what happened in a few words.
However, Xu Lu's complexion had changed slightly, and under his thin and rugged eyebrows, his eyes were bright and sharp, making people afraid to look directly at him.
"Unexpectedly, Mr. Jia has already interrogated and found out the truth." Xu Lu's gaze lingered on the young man's bloodshot eyes, and his heart was slightly shaken.
This young man must have been busy all night, otherwise he would not have been able to interrogate so many details overnight.
But, is the matter involving a country or a vassal?
Jia Heng sighed and said: "Although we don't have the full picture, it's pretty much the same. The matter involves the King of Qi. Now the King of Qi has been demoted to the rank of county king. I think there will be a decree announced soon. Mr. Xu, the emperor's intention is
King Qi can no longer serve as a barrier to the Sanhe Gang, and next, our three parties will need... Well, who is this lord?"
As Jia Heng spoke, he suddenly paused and looked to the side, General Judge Fu Shi. Just now, he thought that this middle-aged man was a close confidant of Chief Ziji Yi next to Xu Lu. His eyes flickered as he looked at him.
There was a trace of fear hidden in his expression, and he was very suspicious in his heart.
Fu Shi was stared at by the sharp sword-like gaze of the young man in brocade clothes, and his heart was filled with fear. He quickly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, with a smile on his face, and said: "Go back to Mr. Jia, I will serve Fu Shi. I don't know what the people in Rong Mansion are like."
Has Mr. Zheng mentioned that he is a subordinate?"
"Fu Shi? Mr. Zheng has never mentioned you, but the Lai family has mentioned you. In order to save Lai Sheng, the Lai family tried to find connections everywhere and brought it to your side?" Jia Heng said with a deep drink.
This is obviously a trick to Fu Shi. Yesterday he interrogated the Lai family to recover the embezzled money, but before he could find out the Lai family used money to bribe officials at the Jingzhao Yamen.
In the middle, his cousin Dong Qian was beaten, and Faden Wengu and other things got involved.
However, it was just a lie, but Fu Shi's face changed drastically, and cold sweat broke out from his back. He forced himself to calm down, and said with a wry smile: "Master Jia, how dare you, a lower official, to collaborate with the Lai family? This is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor! A few days ago
, the old lady of the Lai family is asking people everywhere, and the lower official can't wipe her face, so she drinks a meal, and other than that, even if she borrows ten of the official's heads, she doesn't dare to mess around. The emperor has designated an important case, who dares to interfere with it!?"
"Master Fu, I hope you are telling the truth. Otherwise, if you run away from Lai Sheng, you, Fu Shi, will really have ten heads, and I will chop you off ten times!" Jia Heng's face looked sinister, and he shouted, pressing the button.
Press the Emperor's Sword on your waist.
While speaking, he took a deep look at Fu Shi, lifting his heart to his throat as he looked at him, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face.
On the side, Xu Lu, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, shouted loudly and reprimanded: "Why is Fu Tongxuan still staying here? Why don't you go and stare at the cell!"
When Fu Shi heard this, he quickly responded and backed away.
After Fu Shi left, Xu Lu also fixed his gaze on the sword in the golden dragon scabbard on Jia Heng's waist. His pupils shrank and a turmoil arose in his heart.
Fu Shi didn't recognize the sword, but he knew it was the Emperor's Sword!
"Jia Ziyu, what's the sword on your waist?" Xu Lu's expression changed and he asked tentatively.
Jia Heng said in a clear voice: "I just entered the palace. Due to King Qi's affairs, the Holy Emperor gave me the sword of the emperor to appease the treacherous and treacherous and subjugate the fierce and stubborn!"
When Xu Lu heard this, his face was slightly startled, and he vaguely understood Emperor Chongping's intention. He was silent for a moment and said: "Now that the case of the examination-stricken boy who was beaten and maimed is gradually coming to light, and the problem of bandits in Dongcheng, what do you think?
?”
Jia Heng said: "Mr. Xu, there can't be only one King of Qi behind the Sanhe Gang. There can't be other officials who are opening their eyes and covering up for them. If you want to bring them down, we need the cooperation of the three parties and the collective efforts. We will wait for the Metropolitan Procuratorate later.
Yu Yushi is here to discuss it, and I will also ask Jinyi Mansion to collect information."
I don’t know whether it was because he had the Emperor’s Sword in his hand or because Jia Heng suddenly interrogated Liu You all night long and quickly discovered the evil deeds of the King of Qi. Although Xu Lu was still the chief judge at this moment, the real person who made the plan quietly changed his mind.
In the hands of Jia Heng.
There is a kind of person who can take the initiative in things without making a move, even if he is an actor and can pretend to be a director.
Xu Lu pondered for a moment and said with a firm face: "Although Liu You was interrogated and found out his evil, he still needs to be punished according to the law, and the correct punishment is the right one."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "That's natural, it's just a matter of King Qi..."
Xu Lu frowned and said: "Although King Qi has been dealt with, if other evil deeds are discovered, I will do my best to serve him and do loyal things."
When Jia Heng heard this, he was silent for a moment.
Secretly, this Xu Deqing seems to want to stroke King Qi's tiger beard.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, looked at Xu Lu quietly, and said: "Master Xu, there are many things going on in the country now. Once Liu You's case is settled, even if the Sanhe Gang finds out something, with the sage's magnanimity and foresight...
"
Xu Lu said in a deep voice: "What Jia Ziyu said is ridiculous! If you want to rectify the government and revitalize the government, you must be a powerful king. If you violate the law by envoys and princes, you are not guilty of the same crime as the common people. How can you talk about scraping bones with the blade of the knife inward?"
Poison?! If the King of Qi is really violent and unruly, causing great harm to the country, I, Xu Lu, will not allow this person to run rampant even if I use swords and axes to attack me!"
He was transferred from local to provincial offices and transferred to the central government. He saw the rise of thieves in the Han Dynasty and powerful gentry, running rampant in the local areas and fish and meat villages. However, the government's regulations were weakened and corrupt officials were colluding. If he could be in charge of the Fengxian Yasi in the future, he would definitely help the emperor.
To rectify the administration of officials, even if the body is broken into pieces and the body is slandered, there is no regrets!
Jia Heng looked at Xu Lu, who looked calm and seemed to be vaguely seeing the road of no return in his eyes, and was silent for a moment.
This is a martyr.
At the end of each dynasty, just like a sick patient whose immune system is stimulated, there are always some ruling elites who sacrifice themselves to try to turn the tide and help the building to collapse.
Such as Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting in the late Ming Dynasty in previous lives...
Lin Zexu in the late Qing Dynasty, even though he knew he couldn't do something, he stopped reading poems. For the fastest novel reading, please visit the mobile phone:
