Chapter 562: Sharing Worries
You Liankun, who handled the matter, was directly dismissed from the official and sent to prison, and under Lai Quanchuan's activities everywhere, the position of the secretary of the ministry was retained, but he also fell into a charge of dereliction of duty and lax imperial authority, and was punished with a rod and punished.
It turned out that Zhao Wenting, the former prefect of Yongzhou, who had been replaced because he had no background, was also immediately reinstated, and the people whose fields were encroached upon could be regarded as seeing the hope of justice.
This case, which was supposed to involve a wide range of bribes and land encroachment, came to an end in just a few days.
Those Yongzhou people who went to Beijing to sue the emperor originally just wanted to return to their land, and they were already very satisfied with such a result, and praised the emperor Shengming again and again, but they didn't expect that there were good things to sneer:
"Then You Shikun can be so rampant, it's not speculation, so he dares to act so recklessly? Anyway, now the officials of Daqi can buy it, one You Shikun has been pulled down, and there are countless You Shikun waiting for the fish and flesh people, if it weren't for the efforts of the prince of Qin this time, you people wouldn't even have a place to redress their grievances - I'm afraid you're thanking the wrong person!"
When someone said this, many people remembered those who came out to help them enter the city and pointed them to find Zhengqing of Dali Temple, and suddenly realized:
"It turns out that those Engongs are actually from the Qin Palace?"
The man nodded:
"Yes, when you entered the city, I watched coldly, those people are indeed the guards under the command of the prince of Qin - your suffering is not inflicted on you by the prince of Qin, but the person who saved you from fire and water is really the prince of Qin!"
As soon as these words came out, many people echoed them, and those people who were about to be repatriated to Yongzhou couldn't help but muttered in their hearts when they heard it.
In fact, when I calmed down and thought about it, I felt that what this person said was very reasonable, that You Shikun was a corrupt official, but wasn't this corrupt official also sent by the emperor?
They are not stupid, they couldn't enter the capital before, they had no way to ask for help, they were whipped and driven away, it was clear that someone prevented them from suing the emperor, and there were also their fellow villagers among the victims at the city gate, and they told them about the mediocrity of the court now - the drought has been so long, the emperor refuses to issue an edict against himself, and he has spent all the money on building a spiritualist platform, which has made them suffer from sins and starve to death countless times.
At this time, another ragged person who seemed to be a citizen of Yongzhou said loudly:
"This is not wrong at all! We have also entered the capital for the past few days, and we have all heard people say it, and now the officials of the imperial court are allowed to spend money to buy them, what good people can there be for these people who buy official positions? If it weren't for the prince of Qin who saw us pitiful, helped us enter the capital, and pointed out the way, wouldn't we even have the last chance of survival? We can't be this ungrateful person, although we have nothing, we can't repay it, and we have to go and thank the prince of Qin!"
There were dozens of Yongzhou people who came to the capital, and they couldn't all identify each other, and they couldn't vaguely tell whether this person came with them, but when they heard him say this, they felt very reasonable, and they all agreed and echoed.
A group of people ran to the Qin Wang's Mansion in a mighty way, knelt in front of the gate and thanked them again and again, those secret guards who were arranged to monitor outside the Qinwang Mansion day and night were stunned by such a sudden turn of God, and immediately entered the palace to report to the emperor, and went to arrest those who incited the people's hearts, but at this time, the people of Yongzhou and the people watching the excitement surrounded the front of the Qin Wang's Mansion, and the scene was chaotic, where can I ask who instigated these people before!
By the time the emperor learned of this, public opinion had already become a trend, and the prince of Qin, who had just been greatly sympathized with, had become a good person to save the people from fire and water!
"Although I don't have a rare reputation for being virtuous, but he, Xiao Shaotang, is picking peaches and selling his reputation! He is the son of a prince, what does he want to do? It is I who uphold justice for these people, it is I who shelter these people, and they are really untouchables with no eyes!"
The vertical lines between the emperor's eyebrows were deeply raised, and a sinister aura filled the imperial study with a roar.
Song Wenru, who was called into the palace, also felt angry - this prince of Qin is too uninteresting, can anyone take the credit, can the emperor's credit be taken?
Even if this matter is really his credit, it should be attributed to the emperor's sage!
But Song Wenru knew that it was too late to say anything at this time, and the people's sentiment had already become like this, no matter how much they said, those people would only think that the emperor was narrow-minded and had to say that the emperor was mistreating the prince of Qin - such a dumb loss, the emperor could only admit it!
But some people do not agree with the emperor's statement, Zhao Shizhen, the secretary of the military department, is now angry with the emperor, and when he heard that the emperor was looking for the prince of Qin, he couldn't help but say:
"The emperor Mingjian, the minister heard that the prince of Qin immediately opened the door, and personally came out to tell those people that this matter is not his credit, and he has no intention of selling his reputation!"
"He didn't want to sell his reputation, so why did he want to help those people?
Zhao Shizhen was stunned, the emperor is too unreasonable, right?
He couldn't help but argue:
"Your Majesty! The prince of Qin helped those people, and he also wanted to share the emperor's worries, what was wrong? Is it that if he watches the people's grievances boil and is dissatisfied with the emperor, and ignores them and stands idly by, is he loyal to the emperor?"
"Share your worries, if he really wants to share my worries......," the emperor sneered, "he shouldn't have intervened in this matter!
Zhao Shizhen finally shut up - crazy, the emperor must be crazy!
No wonder today's court is becoming more and more evil, who dares to do something for Daqi sincerely?
If you don't do it well, it's your incompetence, and you should be scolded! If you do it well, it's your ill-intentioned intentions, and you should be scolded!
The emperor's fury lasted until the next morning, and even Wei Wan's gentle companionship and persuasion could not let him lose a bit of anger.
"Sooner or later, I'll kill him!" the Emperor swore viciously.
Wei Wan hesitated, should she tell the people of the Qin Palace's words about the emperor?
After thinking about it, she didn't deliver the news to the Qin Wangfu in the end.
The emperor wants the life of the prince of Qin, this is already Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it, what does it matter if she says it or not?
In the early dynasty, the emperor's face was gloomy, and everyone could see that the emperor was unhappy, and they knew why the emperor was unhappy, but no one dared to persuade him.
It wasn't until Tang Yuan, the squire of the military department, stood up to play that the emperor's face turned cloudy in an instant.
Tang Yuan first praised the prince of Qin sincerely, and then said sincerely:
"The prince of Qin is both civil and military, and he is really the material of my great pillars of Qi! The minister proposed that the emperor can order the prince of Qin to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, which can not only share the emperor's worries, but also allow the prince of Qin to show his talents!"
Leading the troops to suppress the bandits?
The whole dynasty was in an uproar, but when he saw the emperor on the golden throne, a smile gradually appeared on his face - yes, if you want to die alone, what better way is than to fight with a sword and no eyes?
