Chapter IV: Judgment

The county test, the fraud was suddenly ignored, Xiliang, the prince, the identity of this country made the court nervous. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Although Xiliang and my Da Zhou are now brothers, the two countries are connected in commerce and trade, and there are also many Xiliang merchants living in the capital at this time, but they have all submitted documents to verify their identities..."

"If you don't tell you, you're a thief.."

"What's more, it's still the status of the prince... What's the intention?"

"If you want to check the border general, how did he sneak in? Dereliction of duty!"

There was a lot of discussion in the court, angry that the Xiliang people behaved like this, angry that the border pass failed to notice, beating his chest and worrying that the Xiliang Iron Horse had arrived at the foot of the capital.....

Qin Tangong coughed lightly.

Song Yuan immediately shouted: "Whatever you shout, stop it!"

The court was silent, but before Song Yuan could be complacent, another vicious voice said: "Song Shangshu, Jun Qian scolded his colleagues to keep his mouth shut, can you know the crime of dereliction?"

Song Yuan looked at it and saw that it was a white-faced and red-robed official, this person was one of the five ministers who took care of his life, Cheng Lu Yan in the imperial history, and had the duty and right to suppress hundreds of officials to maintain order in the court.

It's really the enemies who are very red when they see each other, Song Yuan said: "I don't know! Lu Zhongcheng, if you don't stop drinking the chaos in front of the king, you are guilty of dereliction of duty." ”

Lu Yan had a hard temperament and said: "Since this is the case, this official will first treat your dereliction of honor in front of the king, and then punish himself for dereliction of duty." ”

Song Yuan really wanted to gamble, so he let Lu Yan cure his own crimes, and then punish him for dereliction of duty, or he could put Lu Yan in the prison of the Criminal Department..... but there are many crazy people in the imperial history under Lu Yan, and if you lock up one, you can have ten pounce on you and die....

Over there, Qin Tan said openly: "Let's listen to what Your Majesty commands." ”

This sentence cannot be refuted even in the imperial history, and the emperor in the palace is the greatest.

Everyone looked at the little emperor, and the little emperor was poked by the eunuch next to him, sat up straight, and said, "Zhongqing has something to say one by one." ”

All the officials responded in unison, leaned over to salute, Wang Xiangye spoke, and said: "This matter is not trivial, but if you are friendly in the two countries, let's listen to how Xiliang explains first." ”

Qin Tan said fairly: "What Xiang Ye said is extremely true. "But everyone only noticed his identity, but forgot what he did." ”

The officials looked at him, and Qin Tan said fairly: "He just sneaked into a county test, and doing such a trivial matter as a prince is not so much bad intentions as his heart." While taking out a letter from his sleeve, "I think everyone has also heard of it, Suo Shengxuan admires my Da Zhou, he likes to read since he was a child, and he also invited many Da Zhou literati to be teachers, he had asked me to ask Mr. Qingxia to apprentice, and at that time he mentioned that he wanted to participate in the imperial examination like a student of Da Zhou, I only joked about him as a young man, but I didn't expect him to really come to do it." ”

Is that so? The officials present whispered.

Song Yuan said loudly: "That's right, yes, many businessmen in Xiliang boast that their prince is erudite and talented, and said that if he can be the champion in the imperial examination, I didn't expect him to really come to the imperial examination, and he plans to come to my Great Zhou to be the champion?"

Even if Prince Xiliang is really the champion, no one will think that he is subservient to him, and it is just those incompetent people who take advantage of this kind of verbal advantage for their own pleasure....Song Yuan is also a post man who is also knowledgeable, and many officials bow their heads to hide their disdain.

Wang Xiangye smiled, but instead of agreeing with Song Yuan, he looked at Qin Tangong and said, "So, it's just a child messing around?"

Speaking in the hall here, there was an urgent report outside, and then a red-robed eunuch hurried in.

"Your Majesty, the king of Xiliang arrived at the embassy post with a messenger and a letter of state. He said sharply, bowing head-on, holding up a letter of state, "Ask for an audience." ”

Qin Tangong said to Wang Xiangye: "King Xiliang's explanation is here. Ordered someone to read out the national letter, and sure enough, the king of Xiliang explained and apologized to the crown prince Suo Shengxuan for sneaking into the Great Zhou to participate in the imperial examination, and presented the gold, silver, jewelry, etc., expressing full sincerity, and at the same time, as a father, he asked the emperor of the Great Zhou to help fulfill his son Suo Shengxuan's wish to study the imperial examination.

Wang Xiangye listened and said: "I didn't expect Prince Suo Shengxuan to like reading so much, and he is higher than my Da Zhou students." ”

An official said with a smile: "This also shows that my Great Zhou Confucianism is prosperous, and I am convinced by the Quartet, which is really my emperor's sage, which is gratifying." ”

So all the officials said in unison Long live to the emperor, although the little emperor didn't know what to congratulate, but he was already familiar with this kind of scene, just sit down and nod in response.

Wang Xiangye said: "Since this is the case, then the matter of Prince Suo Shengxuan will be done, and it is also a good story." He laughed.

Everyone laughed, Wang Xiangye's smile dispersed, and said: "Check the officials of Shisong County in this county test, and they will be punished for treason. ”

The court suddenly fell silent, treason..... That's a felony, the light is to cut off the head, and the worst is to connect the nine clans.

Wang Xiangye said: "Although it seems that this is just favoritism and fraud to release people into the examination room, I also believe that they don't know Suo Shengxuan's true identity, but they did accept favoritism, this time they can favoritism, next time they can, this time it is the imperial examination, what if next time it is to guard the city gate? Immediately, his expression was solemn, "We Da Zhou and Xiliang are brothers, but we don't want us courtiers to be brothers with Xiliang people, you must always remember that you are the courtiers of Da Zhou." ”

When his words fell, Song Yuan couldn't wait any longer, and said: "Wang Xiangye, this is not good, isn't this a slap in the face of King Xiliang?

As soon as he opened his mouth, many people immediately echoed, his voice was loud or small, his attitude was either angry or sighing, but naturally there were also rebuttals, and the court became noisy and noisy.

Wang Xiangye raised his voice and said: "What's wrong with this? My Da Zhou and Xiliang are brothers, so I received the letter of state, as for my Da Zhou's courtiers, naturally Da Zhou will come to judge the crime, do you still have to look at the faces of outsiders?" "Grandpa Qin, did you say?"

Qin Tangong nodded and said, "What Xiangye said is extremely true. ”

Song Yuan said: "I just think it's a big deal..." ”

Wang Xiangye looked at him and said, "Lord Song, there is no trivial matter in state affairs. ”

Song Yuan laughed twice and said, "Wang Xiangye, what you say, what is it." ”

Wang Xiangye didn't pay any more attention to him, turned to the little emperor and bowed to the little emperor and said, "Please make a decision to your majesty." ”

The little emperor sighed, this time he didn't need to be reminded by the eunuch, he sat up straight and said, "Quasi." ”

......

"This old thing is too bad!" In Qin Tangong's duty room, Song Yuan said angrily: "He just deliberately embarrassed King Xiliang..."

To embarrass King Xiliang is to embarrass Grandpa Qin, which sounds a little illogical.

Qin Tan Gong's career is won in the Xiliang War, if the King of Xiliang hates the most, it must be Qin Tan Gong, the prestige is stepping on their Xiliang good man's white bones like a mountain, of course, Qin Tan Gong will not feel guilty about the King of Xiliang, his vow back then is to crush the Xiliang Wangting under his own hooves, so that Qin Tangong's military flag hangs in the Xiliang Palace.

King Xiliang and Duke Qin Tan are very willing to see each other's embarrassment, because the embarrassment of the other party does not make sense.

None of the officials in the room were surprised or objected to Song Yuan's words, but they all looked gloomy.

Qin Tangong's expression was calm, and he said: "It's no wonder that Wang Xiangye is bad, I can only blame them for being too stupid and stupid, asking for hardships, and throwing themselves into the net." "It doesn't matter, don't care, not to mention that the matter is not over yet." ”

It's not over yet, everyone looks at Qin Tangong.

Qin Tangong pointed to the Xiliang Guoshu on the desk and said, "The court only said about the apology of the king of Xiliang, and did not say anything about the request of the king of Xiliang. ”

An official suddenly said: "I ask the Great Zhou Emperor to help Suo Shengxuan study the imperial examination." ”

Qin Tan said fairly: "What is better than helping a father achieve his son's wishes?" smiled at everyone, "Will it still be embarrassing?" stood up, "Now while Wang Xiangye is happy, it is reasonable to make others happy and happy, and Wang Xiangye will not refuse if he wants to come." ”

Song Yuan stepped forward and said, "It's still the grandfather who is smart." The crowd also laughed and swept away the gloom of the past.

Qin Tan said fairly: "It's not that I'm smart, but everything in this world is just one sentence after all, and what you want to get is given first, and you have to give and take, and it's fair." ”
