Three days later, the Queen Mother drove back to the palace from Changlong, and Rong Jiang had to rush to Changlong early in the morning because of his duties, but the Taiji Hall exploded like thunder on the ground.

Pingding Bosun Xun brought up the old things again, brought the watch to the palace to play Zhao Heng, and took a concubine before the marriage of Prince Yan, disrespecting the monarch's father.

The Son of Heaven had a murderous intent on his face, so Wei Jin took the watch up, and only after looking at it once did he look sideways at the prince, full of scrutiny and displeasure.

Zhao Yan was stunned in his heart, and was about to step down to the palace to ask for guilt, but Rong Ji stood up and knelt down with the hem of his official robe: "Your Majesty, please Mingjian." The concubines accepted by the prince were actually sent to the prince's mansion by the ministers and the inner son. ”

Sun Xun was angry, Zhao Yan was puzzled, but Zhao Liang stepped out unhurriedly and replied: "A few days ago, Pingdingbo's excerpt was sent to the Zongren Mansion, and the minister has checked it privately, and the girl was indeed sent by the Rong Mansion, so he didn't pursue it." ”

"Presumptuous." Zhao Heng reprimanded flatly, but he didn't know which one to reprimand, "The prince's wedding is imminent, and the Rong Mansion should also land on your mansion if you want to add a dowry to the girl, but do you want to buy a girl from outside and send it to you?" Rong Qing, is this too nonsense? ”

Rong Ji went to see Zhao Liang, as if asking him how to excuse him now, but when he saw that Zhao Liang gave him a "reassured" look, he was puzzled, but he heard the reply from Qi County's urgent documents sent to Kyoto outside, and he immediately figured it out.

Zhao Heng was also impatient, and waited until he had read the documents, and then asked Rong Ji to get up with a cold look, and the courtiers looked at each other but no one dared to ask, or Zhao Heng opened his mouth, but he cared for Rong Ji: "This time, for the sake of the girl's injury, I don't care about you this time," he said and put aside the paperwork, and instructed Wei Jin very unhappily, "Ask someone to send a decree to Qi County, originally Feng Jia was guilty of hurting the crown princess, Feng Yuanshi had a goddaughter who was not strict, and should be dismissed and investigated, but remembering that he has been diligent for many years, honest and honest, I will not investigate this matter, punished a year's salary, and asked Feng Jia to serve in front of the second girl Rong until her injuries healed, as a punishment. After speaking, he went to look at Rong Ji again, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Is Rong Qing dissatisfied?" ”

This kind of punishment is really not a punishment, but even if Rong Ji is dissatisfied, he can't force the Son of Heaven to investigate this matter deeply, otherwise he doesn't seem to miss the friendship of colleagues at all, and the Rong family and Feng Yuanshi are still related by marriage, so Rong Ji can only nod his head: "Your Majesty is sacred, and the minister has nothing to say." ”

Originally, Sun Xun wanted to say something, but he swallowed it all into his stomach because of the sentence "Feng Jia is guilty". Now Yecheng Danfan has some face, who doesn't know that Feng Jia is his daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, Feng Yuanshi is not strict with his daughter-in-law, but he is looking at people and setting such a daughter-in-law, he only feels that the old face is ashamed, where is there still the face to participate in the prince in the Taiji Palace, he only quietly retreats to the side, and he can't wait for all the officials to see him.

So Feng Jia's farce ended in a few words of understatement by the Son of Heaven, Zhao Liang secretly said in his heart, fortunately, Rong Jiang was not allowed to enter the court in Changlong, otherwise according to her temperament, I am afraid that today I will have to confront Zhao Heng with my neck. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel funny, I clearly knew that I couldn't tolerate her today, but I wasn't afraid at all, Rong Jiang could really be regarded as a heroine among women.

And what about Zhao Heng? I thought that this morning dynasty should come to an end, but he still had hesitation about the prince's concubine, and was about to call the dynasty to disperse, but he saw Li Mingshan, the secretary of His Royal Highness, surrendering his hand.

Li Mingshan did not kneel, but only held the wat board in his hand and saluted respectfully, and replied in a steady voice: "The minister has a book to play." ”

Since Zhao Heng returned to China, he has strongly supported Zhao Heng, the orthodox crown prince, so Zhao Heng also relied on him very much. In addition, Li Mingshan is very upright, although he is also tactful in the officialdom, but he is indeed a person with real skills, so Zhao Heng treats him even more differently.

The Son of Heaven only waved his hand on the throne and did not speak, Li Mingshan had already understood that this was a signal that he would reply if he had something to say, so he handed it to Wei Jin, and said: "The minister wants to participate in the imperial history of the left capital Zhang Wei gave birth to a son during the mourning period, and this son was born in Zhang Wei's outer room, and this outer room happened to be accepted by him during the mourning period. ”

Zhao Heng was almost angry and wanted to smash Li Mingshan, he used to only say that Li Mingshan was upright, but he didn't know that he would be so ignorant. Zhang Wei was brought up by him, and he naturally wanted to be close to Li Mingshan, so even if Li Mingshan and others were more capable than Zhang Wei, Zhao Heng still used Zhang Wei the most.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that in the near future, Zhao Liang said something like this to Rong Jiang - if you use a henchman for the monarch, you must focus on the real villain who sees the wind and makes the rudder. Li Mingshan is too upright, and many secret things cannot be trusted, but Zhang Wei can be used. It's just a matter for later.

And at the moment, Zhao Heng never thought that Li Mingshan would participate in Zhang Wei in this Taiji Hall, and when he went to see Zhang Wei again, his face was pale, and he couldn't even say anything to refute. Zhao Heng also understands that there is nothing to argue with in this matter, Zhang Wei took a concubine and gave birth to a child during his worries, he has heard of this matter for a long time, but Zhang Wei is not cautious and unassuming, and he does not intend to pursue this Aichen, who knows that after many years, Li Mingshan actually mentioned this matter in front of hundreds of officials.

Li Mingshan didn't seem to know that Zhao Heng was angry at this time, and said from his heart: "Zhang Wei is in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he should lead by example, but he is worried that taking a concubine and giving birth to a child is a great unfilial piety, and the minister thinks that such an unfilial son is really unbearable. According to the law of Daye"

"Enough!" Before Li Mingshan finished speaking, Zhao Heng had already interrupted him with a black face. According to the law of Daye? According to the law, Zhang Wei not only has to be dismissed this time, if he doesn't protect some of them, it will not be too much to exile and serve in the army, and the descendants of the Zhang family will never be hired into the court.

Zhao Liang was happy in his heart, he also found out some clues about the rumors in Beijing at the beginning, and he had a great relationship with Zhang Wei, this time he asked someone to expose the old truth, and turned over the things of many years ago, but I was afraid that Rong Jiang, who was far away in Changlong, would be inseparable. It's just that this thing has been done very well, Li Mingshan himself is the emperor's person, and he is in charge of the ministry, so it is really suitable for him to take this excerpt.

As soon as he heard Zhao Heng interrupt Li Mingshan's words, how could Zhao Liang not understand? This is unwilling to give up his confidant and beloved general like this. But in his opinion, if a villain like Zhang Wei stays in the court, he will only cause trouble to the court in the future, so he simply took advantage of this incident to send him out of the court, and the emperor's side can be quieter.

Thinking about it, he opened his mouth: "The minister thinks that what Li Shangshu said is very reasonable," he did not back down from Zhao Heng's gaze at Shang Zhao, "Lord Zhang is the second grade of the court, and he has been favored by the emperor for so many years, but he ignores the law of Daye so much, and regards the law as nothing, such a person should not talk about the Imperial Court, even above the court, and there should be no place for him to stand." ”

Zhang Wei knelt on the ground with a shake of his body, and said some words of "asking for mercy from His Majesty", but in his ears were the words of advice from a group of courtiers who seconded Zhao Liang and Li Mingshan, and his face was like ashes for a while.

It's got to this point, what can Zhao Heng do? If Li Mingshan was more sleek and privately put this fold in the Qingfeng Palace, he would naturally reprimand Zhang Wei, and the small punishment would be a big commandment. But in front of the hundred officials, he is the king, does he ignore the law and blindly protect Zhang Wei?

Zhao Heng and Zhao Ju's eyes each other, after all, it was the Son of Heaven who was defeated first. He furrowed his brows, recruited someone to come in and put Zhang Wei out, and just said: "Remove a qiē position, and never be hired again." Remembering that he has served the country for many years, he will be exempted from exile, and as for the reward in his house, he should be taken away. ”

As the hundred officials praised "His Majesty Xià Shengming", Zhao Heng waved his hand weakly and called for the dispersal of the dynasty. It's just that he instructed Wei Jin to quietly summon the Ministry of Works' Shangshu Qingfeng Hall to meet him, and he didn't want to know about it with outsiders.
