Chapter 244: Layout

After the New Year, it was the birthday of Emperor Yuanwu. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The atmosphere in Beijing is peaceful, and the gifts that should be given and the celebrations that should be celebrated are as if the war is far away from them.

Emperor Yuanwu is old, but he likes his grandchildren. On this year's birthday, the grandchildren who went to celebrate their birthday received a lot of rewards.

Among them, Liu Jingyang has gained a lot.

As soon as the head row of the little radish stood in front of Emperor Yuan Wu to congratulate him on his birthday, Liu Jingyang's appearance was the most outstanding.

His face is like his mother, his eyes are blue and clear, watery and there is no shadow at all, combined together, but strangely good-looking, Emperor Yuanwu is simply fascinated, and he beckoned him to come forward and ask a few words for the first time, and got a few fairy tales from Liu Jingyang, and Emperor Yuanwu smiled from ear to ear.

The prince had a reluctant smile on his face, and the frail and sickly prince Liu Xun stood aggrievedly against the prince.

On a happy day, the hypocrisy on the faces of the royal people made Chang Run's headache.

Sure enough, the prince's temperament was narrow, and after that, he found a few mistakes of Liu Tong and talked about them, put a shelf for the prince, and put Liu Tong's face.

Liu Tong didn't care about this, he was waiting for the news of the Fourteenth Prince.

Just after the first lunar month, the fourteenth prince had an accident.

He asked a friend to go to Yihong Pavilion to listen to the music, but met Li Weiqing, the son of the left servant of the Ministry of War, and some of the friends had an old enmity with Li Weiqing, and the two immediately had a quarrel and gradually got into action. The fourteenth prince was in the middle of the mediation, but he didn't expect Li Weiqing to make a mistake and smash the head of the fourteenth prince. The fourteenth prince immediately bled profusely.

The fourteenth prince is not completely gentle, but he is righteous, good pomp, and always has a bunch of sons and brothers to accompany him when he goes out to play, but he doesn't make much trouble.

The injury of the fourteenth prince is not a trivial matter, no matter how it is, it is also a nobleman, and the sons and brothers who came to Yihong Pavilion with him suddenly panicked, and they don't know who shouted "beat him", everyone immediately found a punching bag, and even if he was holding Li Weiqing fat, he was beaten.

Li Weiqing didn't come alone, let alone wait for someone to beat him, he thought that he was the son of a soldier in the military department, and there was a prince behind him.

The dispute escalated, Yi Hongge was in a mess, and Jing Zhaoyin hurriedly came with people to stop this farce in the yamen.

Because the fourteenth prince was seriously injured, there was no accident in this matter, and the impeachment of the imperial history was also one after another.

The sons and brothers who participated in the fight were all the children and grandchildren of the leading figures in the court, and this matter was so mixed up by the imperial history that it swept more than a dozen high-ranking officials in the court.

Emperor Yuanwu was so angry that his beard turned a few whiter.

He ordered someone to block and investigate Yi Hong Pavilion, and investigated the cause and effect of the battle in Yi Hong Pavilion, but found a lot of tricks from Yi Hong Pavilion within half a month.

When the two sides fought, they spoke harshly to each other, and also said some things that they would not normally declare, and following these clues, they also found something unclean from some officials' mansions.

Emperor Yuanwu looked at the things that were secretly investigated, his eyes were obscure, and he didn't move for a long time.

The people of the personal temple were uneasy, and they stepped forward and called softly: "Your Majesty......"

Emperor Yuanwu looked at him, paused, and said, "I haven't seen these things before." ”

The temple man lowered his head: "Xu is...... It's not exposed. ”

Emperor Yuanwu laughed, but his eyes were a little cold: "Half of the officials above are people who have received the favor and support of King Qi, and the other half are very close to King Li...... Whose handiwork is this, you say? ”

The temple people were silent.

Emperor Yuanwu didn't expect him to answer, he lightly tapped the table and said, "The cause of the incident is the son of Xiao Fourteen and the soldier of the military department. Xiao Fourteen is not used to it, and the Li family kid is mixed in Beijing, it is impossible not to know Xiao Fourteen's personality. What's more, it is said that he is not usually such a reckless person, but that day, after beating Xiao Fourteen, he got into trouble with people again......"

The temple people's eyes flashed slightly: "Your Majesty thinks it's ......"

Emperor Yuanwu said thoughtfully: "In the past, it was common for Xiao Twelve to act together with King Rui, but recently I heard that Xiao Twelve frequently entered and exited the Prince's Mansion?" ”

The temple man smiled lowly: "The twelve princes are weak, and the prince will inevitably take more care." ”

Emperor Yuanwu laughed and rubbed his fingers: "Xiao Fourteen and Xiao Jiu are close, they must be close to King Rui." Xiao Fourteen's injury, there is one less person who helps Xiao Jiu do things. ”

The temple man stopped talking.

Because the fourteenth prince turned the danger into safety, there was no big problem, and the Li family actively asked for guilt, and Emperor Yuanwu was lenient and punished the left waiter of the military department for half a year in the name of "not being strict with his godson", and beat Li Weiqing with ten boards. Subsequently, the Li family expelled Li Weiqing from the Li Mansion and severed relations with him.

This punishment seems too lenient, but Liu Tong has no opinion.

At this time, he and Chang Runzhi were visiting the injured in the Fourteenth Prince's Mansion.

The fourteenth prince still had a white cloth scarf wrapped around his head, but he was jumping around.

"Brother Jiu, your plan is good." The fourteenth prince grinned: "It not only cut some of the power of King Qi and King Li, but also made my father's suspicion of the crown prince a serious problem." ”

Liu Tong frowned slightly, glaring at the fourteenth prince: "You still dare to say?" ”

The fourteenth prince inevitably felt weak, and touched his nose: "If this is not really hurt, I can't escape suspicion, right?" Brother Jiu, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, I calculated the strength of his attack before I got up. ”

"It's okay to lose it, if you really have three long and two short ......" Liu Tong pinched his eyebrows tiredly: "That's why I don't let you do meticulous things." ”

The fourteenth prince smiled, stretched out his hand and knocked his head: "Ninth brother, look, it's really fine." ”

"You don't count if you say you're fine, but you don't count until the doctor says you're okay." Liu Tong paused, still asked with concern: "Do you still have a headache recently?" Didn't you say that the wound was shaved off? I don't know if I'll be able to grow my hair. ”

The fourteenth prince should not be the same: "It doesn't matter if you can't grow out, men don't rely on that little hair to eat." ”

Liu Tong had no choice but to shake his head with a smile on the scoundrel words of the Fourteenth Prince.

The fourteenth prince gaged a few words, and then changed the topic back: "Ninth brother, why do you say that the punishment of the father is so light?" Do you not want to embarrass the prince, or are you still suspicious of the truth of the incident? ”

Liu Tong smiled: "Most likely it's the latter." ”

"The latter ......," muttered the fourteenth prince, "what else does the father suspect?" ”

"In this matter, on the surface, it seems that the loss is just a son of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, but in exchange for King Qi and King Li's hemorrhage, even you, the Rui Wang faction, have to take a break for a while. But from the inside, who gets the most benefits? Almost all of them have grandchildren, and the difference is only in the wounded enemy by 1,000, and the self-damage is 800 or 1,002. Anyone can operate in the middle, but the one who loses the least is the crown prince. ”

"Then can't you let your father think that it was the crown prince who did it?"

Liu Tong shook his head and said softly: "Not yet, my purpose is not to make my father sure that the prince did itβ€”I just want him to be suspicious of the prince." ”

He made up his mind: "If you want to shake the status of the prince, you have to take a dose of fierce medicine." ”

"Fierce medicine?" The fourteenth prince suddenly became interested: "Brother Jiu, tell me quickly." ”

Liu Tong smiled and only said, "You can recuperate with peace of mind." ”

Next, this fierce medicine needs him to play in person. (To be continued.) )
