Chapter 289: Punishment and Punishment
The outbreak of the plague in Prince Gong's Mansion caused turbulence in the court. What kind of place is Prince Gong's Mansion? On the edge of the Imperial City! There is a river between his backyard and Guanglu Temple.
A plague in such a place has the potential to cause terrible consequences......
If this matter is fueled by someone with a heart, then this person is too lawless!
Since ancient times, civil officials have fought each other, and they have paid attention to punishment and not to be a sergeant. Wouldn't it be a mess to let someone with the epidemic go to the house of a political enemy if they didn't agree like this? There is only one end for such a person - the Manchu Dynasty civil and military honors and noble eunuchs trampled him to death together.
Although there is no evidence now, in terms of motives, this person is likely to be Wang Xiao.
There is no evidence.
In addition, according to Wang Xiao's political experience, he is not such an impulsive person. He and King Gong don't have any deep hatred, Wangjia Village is just a few dead villagers.
In short, there are many theories about the reasons why Prince Gong's Mansion was infected with the epidemic. What did the twenty-seventh son of King Gong go to the suburbs of Beijing a few days ago to deliver grain, and the eighteenth son of King Gong robbed a refugee woman......
However, many officials in the court also noticed that His Majesty's attitude towards Wang Xiao had changed slightly. In the past, there were often people who impeached Wang Xiao, and some of those excerpts were dismissed, and some were left behind.
Two days after King Gong's death, the excerpt of impeachment of Wang Xiao has not been rejected again, and even a letter denouncing 'Wang Xiao to go home too diligently' was approved by His Majesty, and the concubine was fined for five years.
Wang Xiao naturally has no shortage of money, but what is represented behind this matter is ...... The Holy Grace is not there.
Just imagine, Wang Xiao and Princess Chunning got married for less than eight days, and before the princess returned to the door, he was cut off.
After careful tasting, the evil feelings in His Majesty's heart towards this kid have been revealed.
Although the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, the hundred officials in the court can still probably guess His Majesty's thoughts
- I told you not to touch King Gong, but King Gong died within three days! How dare you use such a means? Is that if I offend you, you're going to kill me too?! If it weren't for Chunning's new marriage, it would be enough for you to die 800 times......
At the same time, Jin Yiwei's situation has also become awkward. The household department had planned to give out a reward, but it was temporarily not issued on the grounds that it would be used for disaster relief.
This is not a lot of silver, and there is no other money transferred from the DPRK and China...... In short, it is actually a bit ridiculous to only take 800 taels to 'disaster relief'.
But Zhang Yongnian couldn't laugh.
No matter how sharp a knife is, the owner doesn't need it, it's just a piece of scrap metal.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for the knife to rust and rot.
As for Wang Xiao?
When the evidence emerges, the captain of the horse will surely die; Even if there is no evidence, then he will not want to be tainted with any more power......
~~
Under the undercurrent, few people noticed a very small thing - Luo Yuan was released from prison.
"Now I find out that Yu Shi Luo Yuan has nothing to do with the assassination of the prince, hereby ......" When the brocade guard said this, he forgot the words behind it, and simply scolded: "Get out!" ”
With a "squeak", the heavy prison door was opened, and Luo Yuan stepped out, and before leaving, he scolded the brocade guard: "Insulting Sven." ”
It's still snowing outside, but the thin rays of sun in the snowflakes are so beautiful that it makes people's hearts palpitate.
Luo Yuan sniffed the cold breeze and felt the ...... of freedom
Suddenly, he heard a somewhat familiar voice.
"Wearing this leather is majestic, haha, look at this official boots stepping on the ground, sizzling."
Luo Yuan turned his head to look, and saw a brocade guard colonel leading the two of them to swagger around in the snow, as if feeling the ...... of official boots Foot sensation.
He didn't bother to deal with such a shallow person, shook his head and planned to leave the elephant garden.
"Prisoner, come here!" The little colonel shouted.
Luo Yuan didn't know that he was calling himself, so he continued to walk upright.
The little colonel actually caught up, ran to Luo Yuan to take a look, and laughed: "Hey, it's really you!" ”
Luo Yuan vaguely felt that he was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, so he hesitated: "You are ......"
"Hey, you're going to pretend you don't recognize me. Cui Laosan, under Chengxi Chai Ye. Now it's a hundred households in brocade clothes, haha. ”
Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered who the other party was.
"I am now a military attache of the sixth rank, you are a civil official of the seventh grade, and I am one rank higher than you." Cui Laosan smiled with open eyebrows.
Luo Yuan was about to open his mouth to say, "Noble and cheap, how can it be counted like this." ”
Before the words came out, I heard Cui Laosan say again: "Do you remember?" I'll give you five taels of silver......"
Luo Yuan was a little dazed when he "boomed" in his head.
Coming to ask for silver?! What to do?
"I ...... I haven't scraped together enough taels of silver for a while, can I give a grace of two days? Luo Yuan muttered.
Cui Laosan was stunned and glanced at this stupid official.
- Now that the IOUs have been burned, this stupid official is still willing to pay back the money? Interesting, really interesting!
"Two days?" Cui Laosan asked.
"Not bad." Luo Yuan nodded hurriedly.
Cui Laosan laughed in his heart, and said, "Okay, don't lose money." Counting the profits, it is a total of ...... Six, two, eight. ”
"Six, two, eight?!" Luo Yuan was taken aback: "This hasn't been a long time, how can there be such a high profit?" Didn't you say that it was good to have three points at the time? According to the regulations set by Taizu, private interest may not exceed three points. ”
Cui Laosan is extremely experienced, and said eloquently: "Of course, it is three points of interest, but the bonus distribution agreed at that time has two points, and the interest generated will be included in the principal, plus I couldn't find you a few days ago, and I missed the cost of a carriage and horse...... Come, I'll tell you ......."
As he spoke, he picked up a branch and scratched it on the snow.
Luo Yuan has always been a self-proclaimed gentleman and doesn't care about money and mundane things, at this time, listening to these numbers, he suddenly felt a big head, and saw Cui Laosan and his two subordinates fierce and vicious, and after calculating it, it was best to pinch his nose and admit it.
He went all the way back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in a daze, and reported to Master Cheng that he had been acquitted of prison and re-recorded his official body.
The adult didn't bother to ask, glanced at him, and said, "What kind of system do you think your official robe has become?!" I have to order a new set and pay two taels of silver. ”
Luo Yuan remembered that the last thing he did before he was imprisoned was to cut off his robe with Zuo Jinglun.
"Experience, can the lower official pay this silver in two days?"
After experiencing the adult's whole face, he stinked, and waved his hand with some disdain: "This official has a lot of work, but you are causing trouble day by day......
Luo Yuan felt a little sad in his heart.
He suddenly felt that the Jinyi Guard's edict sounded terrifying, but he had never been so worried when he was inside.
When the mountain was exhausted, he suddenly heard the conversation of his colleagues in his ears - at the beginning of this month, the court actually sent a fortune?!
Luo Yuan's ears pricked up, and he hurriedly asked, "What about my Yulu?" ”
"How do we know? You go to the household department and ask yourself......"
~~
Households.
"Xiaguan happened to be in Jinyi Wei Prison at the beginning of the month, so he didn't receive Yulu, can he ......?"
"Can't!" The head of the household department made a stinky face, and said coldly: "You yourself made a mistake and didn't get Yulu, how can you still have the face to come here to make trouble?" ”
"Xia Guan is not a crime, it is an edict. Xia Guan was imprisoned for opposing the factory guard and upholding the law, and now he has cleared his grievances. Luo Yuan hurriedly said.
"Oh? Is it my fault that you say so? The head of the household department rolled his eyes and said, "Am I not thoughtful?" I didn't expect you criminals to be innocent. I'm supposed to leave you a copy, right? ”
Luo Yuan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, my lord is impartial." It's just that I'm out of prison now, can I get it back? ”
"I can't."
"This ...... Why not? ”
The head of the household department looked disgusted and said, "That's the process. What do you ask? A prisoner, huh. ”
"But, my ......"
"You have committed a crime and are sitting in prison, and you want to receive it? Is it so easy to be an official? ”
Luo Yuan felt that what he said made sense, so he said: "That's the same, you don't have to receive it last month." Can I get it a few months before the lawsuit? ”
"No, you can't."
"Why is that?"
"There is no reason." The head of the household said impatiently.
"But this is what the lower officials deserve!" Luo Yuan also gradually became popular.
Why don't you give me a reason......
