Chapter 556: Master Ma retreated
The emperor looked at Master Ma and then at the crown prince. His face was even colder, Master Ma was afraid, and the prince really let himself down, making all the people around him feel cold. Even Lord Ma, the father-in-law, is afraid of the prince.
Even the official didn't want to do it, so he wanted to save his life and leave. "Have you thought about it? Once you resign, you will have to retire in your ancestral home in the future! ”
Master Ma sweated slightly on his forehead, but said firmly: "The minister's mind has been decided, the minister is old, and he has been feeling unwell these days. You also saw that the minister was white-headed overnight, and the minister thought that he could return to his hometown when he was in his life. can spend his old age in peace and ask the emperor to fulfill it. ”
The green tendons on the prince's forehead bulged, and he wanted to stop now, but there was no door. The prince will not let Master Ma resign, otherwise wouldn't it be boring for the prince to marry Ma Yuer?
The crown prince took a step forward and arched his hand, "Father, the sons and daughters feel that Master Ma has been in the ministry for all these years, and the ministry has been clear.
Now that the DPRK and China are employing people again, after Master Ma leaves, this official can't find a satisfactory person for a while. Why don't you let Master Ma hold on for a few more years, wait until the emperor finds someone he likes, and then let Master Ma return to his hometown? ”
Master Ma knew that the prince would not let him go, and today Master Ma did not plan that the prince would let him leave alive.
That's why he sent his family away overnight, and Master Ma understood in his heart that if his death made the prince's grievances resolved, maybe the family would be able to live in peace. If you have been forcibly leaving, the prince may be even angrier at that time, and maybe he won't let any of them go? Master Ma is trying to sacrifice himself to keep his family safe.
How do you know that Lord Xu on the side walked to the hall and arched his hand: "The prince has said this, Lord Ma has worked hard for the court for most of his life, and now he just wants to return to his hometown to spend his old age in peace." How can the DPRK not approve Martha's resignation just because it is at the time of employing people?
Prince, please take a look, Master Ma still had black hair before, and in just a few days, his hair has all turned gray. Master Ma must be homesick and overly worried, so that's why he is like this.
The emperor is merciful, and he will not let Master Ma regret it for life. This person is dead like a lamp going out, don't wait until the people are gone, and then regret it, then it will be too late! ”
Master Ma cast a grateful look at Lord Xu, although he knew that Lord Xu had said it for him, but it was just to suppress the prince. But now, no matter what Lord Xu's purpose is, as long as he helps himself leave, he is his savior.
The prince was very angry, "Lord Xu is also old, so he can naturally understand Lord Ma's mood, but this prince doesn't know, Lord Ma can think about resigning and returning to his hometown, why doesn't Lord Xu think like this?" Or does Lord Xu also want to, but he can't let go of this official voice? ”
The prince's words were a bit heavy, and the emperor twisted his eyebrows, but he reprimanded the prince in public, but the emperor still didn't want to.
Lord Xu was not annoyed, and said calmly: "What the prince said is that the minister really can't let go of this official voice, because the minister is incorruptible, so he has no extra money to have." When you return to your hometown and old age, you have to work in the field, and you have to watch the harvest.
In this way, how can the life of the family be raised, and the minister's body has always been healthy, so the minister is naturally willing to continue to serve the emperor and contribute to the people. At the same time, it can make the family more comfortable, so why not do it?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looks down on the ministers so much, whether he wants to force the ministers to resign, and the ministers don't know where to offend the prince. Let the prince have such a deep prejudice against the minister, today the minister will confess to the prince, and ask the prince to forgive him, and stop holding a grudge against the minister. ”
This is reasonable, and at the same time, he stabbed the prince back, and the people in the court are not fools, and they also know that this is Lord Xu playing tricks with the prince.
It's a pity that what the prince said didn't pay attention to, but it was Lord Xu, who was straightforward. There is no money to live with, but when you return to your hometown, you can only live a hard life, and it is naturally better to be an official than a small citizen. When the crown prince said this, what did the other elderly ministers in the court think.
The crown prince watched the ministers whisper, obviously dissatisfied with himself, and his face was even more ugly. "Lord Xu is not a bad example, he can speak for himself, this prince is ashamed of himself, and my lord does not have to ask for guilt in any place that offends this prince.
This prince also has no grudge against adults, this prince just doesn't understand, why does Lord Xu want to help Master Ma resign, is it possible that Lord Xu wants to replace him? ”
The prince's words made the minister really unanswerable, no matter how the minister replied, the prince could always find the minister's fault. The minister was just sympathetic and sympathetic to Master Ma overnight. That's why I really want to help Master Ma say a fair word, but I don't know that I have offended His Royal Highness the Prince.
The minister knew the reason why the prince didn't want Master Ma to leave, so the prince didn't have to see who stabbed whom. The ministers in this court are all from human origin, and none of them are deaf or blind, and everyone understands it in their hearts? ”
The emperor's face was embarrassed, the prince is really stupid, Master Ma is the father-in-law of the prince, and the prince naturally doesn't want to lose the help of Lord Ma. Isn't that what anyone with a discerning eye knows?
The prince is talking nonsense here, pulling Lord Xu and not letting go, where is there still half of the prince's bearing. The emperor knew that he would not be silent again, afraid that the crown prince would only be more ugly.
"Okay, the prince Hugh has to say more. Since Master Ma is homesick, I can't chill the hearts of my courtiers.
After Ma Daren returns to his hometown, I will send someone to send a generous pension bank, so that Ma Daren will have no worries for the rest of his life. This matter will be handed over to the prince, the prince should not let me down, the princess's mother's family can't stay slow. ”
The prince didn't expect his father to defend himself like this, and the prince wanted to kill Ma directly because he felt very unhappy. Now that my father has issued such an order, the prince can't kill Master Ma if he wants to.
But the emperor's order cannot be violated, and the prince can only reluctantly give up his hand: "The son of the minister will take the order, and the son of the minister will definitely handle this matter well, so that Lord Ma can spend his old age in the beautiful scenery of his hometown." ”
Master Ma was so moved that he almost cried, and when he returned to his hometown, he would be given a pension, which was the emperor's clear warning to the prince that he should not hurt his life. Otherwise, if there is no one to receive the decree at that time, they will have to ask the prince for their guilt.
Master Ma knew that it was fortunate that Lord Xu had help today, otherwise he would not have been able to get out of the way. And the affairs of the Gao family, the emperor also knows about it,
That's why he specially warned the prince to let himself spend his old age in peace. Master Ma can only take care of her family's health now, Yu'er is her suicide, and it is no wonder that her father hates her.
Master Ma had to kowtow heavily, then took off the black gauze hat he had worn for many years, and choked up: "The minister is grateful for the emperor's kindness!" "A eunuch on the side stepped forward to take Lord Ma's black gauze hat, and Lord Ma has now become a grass people.
But Master Ma felt relaxed. Then he strode out of the Jinluan Palace, because the grass people were not allowed to appear here.
The prince clenched his fists, all of them were good, since Master Ma was so disobedient, then Ma Yuer would not have a good life. For things that have no use value, the prince seems to have destroyed them. Otherwise, the Prince's Mansion occupies too much space, and it is an eyesore to watch.
Mo Li and the old marquis looked at the prince with disdain, just this kind of thing, and they still want to be on the throne. What does the emperor think of his courtiers, even if he is ruthless, he is cruel and unkind. Then, as Mo Li expected, some ministers began to fold and demand a strict investigation of the tragedy of Gao Daren's death.
The prince snorted coldly: "It's just some sinners, what's the pity of dying, it seems that the adults are too idle, so they have nothing to do, right?" ”
The prince squinted his eyes and swept towards everyone, but everyone was willing to deal with the threat of the prince, the prince's virtue, who will have a good life when he becomes the emperor in the future. It is not a pity to say that dozens of people died, but it is really a mistake to treat human life as human life.
Why did the emperor take a fancy to the crown prince back then? Will such people truly benefit the common people? Will you be kind to the minister, will you be lenient and generous?
The emperor angrily hammered the dragon head on the armrest, and reprimanded angrily: "Bold, the prince, you take human life so seriously, it is really disappointing to me." Since I was a child, I have taught you to love the people like a son, even if the tall man is guilty, but the tall adult's family will not die for the crime.
Moreover, the case of Lord Gao has not yet been clarified, and Lord Gao's crime is not yet established, and the prince keeps saying that he is a criminal, is it possible that the prince said that Lord Gao is guilty, and he is guilty? You don't even pay attention to me? ”
The crown prince knew that he had angered his father, so he knelt down in horror, usually his father would never reprimand himself in front of his ministers, and said such harsh words. The prince didn't know how to explain it for a while, so he could only plead guiltily and said: "The father is angry, and the sons know that they are wrong, and the sons dare no longer dare." ”
The emperor smiled coldly, "Why don't you dare, you, the crown prince, are getting bigger and bigger, I ask you, how many words did you say and how many words did I say in the morning today." How did you ever put the officials in your eyes and the people in your eyes, and blindly rebuke everyone, how did I teach you? ”
Usually the emperor is so angry with the prince, and the ministers have to intercede for the prince, even if it is for show, to make the emperor extinguish his anger.
But who knew that at this time, the ministers of the court and the central government all bowed their heads, did not know what they wanted, and did not want to intercede for the prince at all. And those princelings, even if they want to intercede, they don't dare to stand up, otherwise they will only add fuel to the fire.
But the Marquis of Qingning can't ignore it, the Marquis of Qingning is the prince's uncle, how can he watch the prince let the emperor reprimand, but he doesn't say anything to persuade him?
In fact, the Marquis of Qingning also felt that the prince was becoming more and more presumptuous now, and he could say whatever he wanted, and what kind of person would dare to provoke.
Those words can be said in private, why do you say them in front of hundreds of officials? Wouldn't this make all the officials know that the prince is unkind and unkind, and treats human life like a mustard.
If such a prince dares to support him, he can be the whole family of the tall man today, and maybe he will be anyone in the palace in the future.
But the Marquis of Qingning couldn't sit idly by, so he had to walk to the palace, knelt beside the prince, and pleaded with a face: "Ask the emperor to quench his anger, the prince is young and ignorant, and naturally his words are inappropriate." I also asked the emperor to teach the prince more when the prince was young. ”
The emperor sneered, "The Marquis of Qingning is protecting his shortcomings, this is really a deep love for his uncle and nephew!" I tell you that if the prince doesn't reflect well this time, I won't let the prince enter the court again. ”
After that, he looked at the prince with cold eyes, "Prince, from today onwards, you will reflect on the prince's mansion and hand over all the affairs in your hands." I will send someone to take over, and if I don't reflect clearly, I know what is wrong, and I don't have to come out. Save the annoyance of watching 1" R1152
