Chapter 13 The Gentleman is Frank
The book said that the methods of the princess Zhan were extremely vicious, and she regarded human life as a mustard, and hundreds of people in the palace were tortured to death by her. Emperor Wencheng didn't like her cruelty when he lived in the Zhan Wangfu, but he didn't lose her because of the face of the Zhan King, so Emperor Wencheng has always disliked barbarian women, even if he later offered ...... to the country."
The emperor rebuked, "What nonsense are you talking about! Look at the biography, what are you looking at is the biography of Emperor Wencheng or those nonsense wild histories!"
Yuan Diyi soothed, "The emperor is angry, reading and learning is also a good thing, I think it's just that Concubine Qiong doesn't know the essentials and doesn't understand that reading is gradual, and she can't tell the truth from the fake to take the fake seriously, I think it's better not to read any biography first, it's better to start with the Three Character Classic." ā
Concubine Qiong looked at her resentfully, and the emperor said, "Have you heard Miss Qingyuan's words?" ā
Concubine Qiong whispered, "The concubine heard clearly. ā
"Then go back to your palace, take this five-fruit soup back, I have no appetite. The Emperor turned his back.
Yuan Diyi waited for Qiong Guifei to turn around and step on the long skirt, Qiong Guifei fell on the hall and grabbed, and her bun was loose, Qiong Guifei knew that Yuan Diyi did it, and the resentment was deeper but helpless, just because Yuan Diyi had the emperor's support.
The emperor didn't see it, but Zhang Nian saw it in his eyes, Yuan Diyi was not afraid at all, he smiled at Zhang Nian calmly, Zhang Nian bowed his head, Yuan Diyi thought that it was no wonder that he could become the emperor's henchman, and the emperor would never put a stupid person around him to send him.
As soon as Concubine Qiong left on the front foot, the little eunuch who had just come in to report came in again, Zhang Nian saw that the emperor was displeased, and he was afraid that the little eunuch would anger Long Yan and cause trouble, so he reprimanded loudly, and the little eunuch said aggrievedly, "The Nine Emperor Princes ask to see." ā
The one who entered the palace to ask to see was either Wang Sun or a high-ranking official, and he couldn't afford to offend, not to mention that he always had to ask the emperor to go out to report if he didn't see it, and he couldn't just make the decision, isn't it the following offense.
The Emperor said, "Let him in." ā
Emperor Yuan Yi said, "Your Majesty, the Nine Emperors may be for political affairs, I have no official position, and I have no merit and fame, the emperor wants to discuss political affairs, and I should avoid it." ā
The emperor said, "This is not the previous dynasty, no need, sit down." ā
The Nine Emperors came in and bowed, and the Emperor asked him to get up and asked, "What is the matter?"
Seeing that Emperor Yuan did not evade, the emperor did not open his mouth to let her go, except for the queen mother, the emperor did not leave a second woman to listen to the government in the study. The Nine Emperors said, "The sons and daughters in front of the father and the emperor do not dare to hide anything, the father knows that my mother and the concubine have always been cousins, and he has committed a heinous crime this time, and the sons and daughters have no face to ask the father to forgive him for his guilt." ā
"If it's not for intercession, what are you going to do?"
"The mother concubine thought that she was a relative after all, and the frustrated family was sentenced to beheading, although the law is not in agreement, but I should go to the prison to see the frustration, so the son went to the prison today. ā
The emperor patted the case, "Bold! Frustration is a felony of the imperial court, and I have already been sentenced to death." You dare to go to see him in prison without my consent, have you ever heard that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people. ā
The Nine Emperors knelt down and said, "The sons are guilty, and the sons are willing to be punished, but if the sons and daughters do not report it, they will be bullying the king." ā
The emperor was furious, "What else can he say to you, it's nothing more than some excuse to shirk responsibility." Pushing the blame to the people at the bottom to give him the guilt is just greed for life and fear of death. ā
The Nine Emperors took out a thick notebook, "People are dying and their words are good, father, frustrated with the bribes he has received over the years, and the gold and silver fields copied out of his home are just a drop in the bucket." The points he had embezzled were deposited in several shares, but according to him, Lord Feng had seen him in prison a few days ago, falsely claiming that it could save his life, and defrauded him of all the dirty money deposited in the bank. This is the account book of the Fu Mansion, and the father can ask the household department to count it to see if the number is consistent. ā
Zhang Nian took the account book and turned a few pages, I don't know if it's true or false for the time being, but the fish and meat people are really solid, and even the silver and silver for disaster relief are smooth and fishing in troubled waters. The emperor said with a dark face, "Let the scholars of Feng University, Hubu Shangshu and Lord Yuan enter the palace." ā
Yuan Diyi thought to himself, there is a drama to watch. The emperor summoned people, afraid that he would ride a horse all the way from the palace through the streets and alleys to pass the word, Yuan Diyi squinted his eyes, took a nap, and the three of them came.
The emperor asked Feng Michu, "Have you ever been in prison to see frustration?"
Feng Michu put his hands in his sleeves and bent over and replied, "The minister has never been to prison, and there were many people who were recommended by Lord Fu back then, so that Wei Chen had the honor to share his worries and serve the emperor, and Lord Fu had the grace of knowing Wei Chen." Weichen didn't dare to know the law and break the law, so he just asked the family to send a meal of wine and food to prison, just as the last little bit he could do for the depressed man. ā
The emperor asked Yuan Musheng again, "Has he ever been in prison, I will ask, if you have half a lie, it will be a bully." ā
Yuan Musheng also bent over and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen and Lord Feng have never had any friendship, thanks to the emperor's promotion of me as the palace Yin, the minister is unwilling to live up to the emperor's grace, and is inspired to rectify the old crooked style, and judge good and evil with the righteousness of the yamen." It has been made clear that the upper and lower levels of the yamen can only act in accordance with the laws and regulations, and anyone who enters or leaves the yamen must clearly report their names and intentions before they can be put in. Lord Feng has never been to the Yamen. ā
The Nine Emperors said, "Lord Yuan is upright, it doesn't mean that the people below don't see money. ā
Yuan Musheng said, "Weichen believes that the people of the yamen will not be lawless. ā
The emperor threw the ledger at Feng Michu's feet, "See for yourself what is written." ā
Feng Michu picked up the account book and flipped a few pages, on which it was written what year, month, and day sent something to him, Feng Michu said, "Your Majesty, Lord Fu did let the people in the palace send these things, but the ministers were deeply favored by the emperor and did not dare to accept these and returned them intact." ā
The Emperor asked, "How do you prove it?" ā
Feng Mi Chu said, "I can't prove it, I can only say that those who are clear are self-turbid, and those who are turbid are self-turbid." The emperor can order a thorough investigation, but he can also take the opportunity to let Weichen clear his name. ā
"Frustrated, you cheated him out of all the money he embezzled, do you know what I hate the most? ā
Feng Michu looked like a gentleman and frank, "Your Majesty, Weichen also learned that he had embezzled so many taels of silver after the incident in the east window of the depressed adult, and Weichen didn't know why he reversed black and white. The emperor can ask people to search my house. ā
The Nine Emperor Princes said, "If Lord Feng really steals the dragon and turns the phoenix, how can he put such a large sum of silver in the mansion." ā
"Even if the emperor wants to call his ministers to death, Ming Zhichen has no complaints. ā
The Nine Emperors mentioned yƬ, "Father, it's not just a few taels of silver that is frustrated and corrupted, if it is really robbed by someone taking advantage of the fire, then it must be thoroughly investigated, and it is better to hand it over to the Criminal Department to be handed over." ā
