Chapter 249: The King Doesn't Come to Court Early
After Li Jun had these two brides, he was very happy, and he looked listless at several court meetings, so he was severely criticized by the Empress Dowager Wei.
On this day, Li Jun was enjoying Gongsun Qiong's beauty dance, He Shen hurriedly ran in, Li Jun clapped his hands, a group of beauties immediately retreated, Li Jun drank the wine in the cup and asked, "What's wrong?" Is the sky falling? ”
"Your Majesty, all the cabinet members are out asking to see you."
Li Jun was also startled when he heard this battle, and hurriedly got dressed and went to the front court, Yuan Zhan and others waited anxiously, after Li Jun arrived, Yuan Zhan didn't have time to salute and said: "Your Majesty, just now there is news from Huainan County, three of which are controlled, Huaiyuan County and Xinghua County are afraid that there will be no harvest this year, and Xinghua County ordered Dai Zhou to set fire to the county's grain in order not to let the locusts go to other places, and then committed suicide by throwing himself into the fire, as for Huaiyuan County, there is also chaos, Jiang Zheng, the county commander of Huaiyuan County, replaced the relief grain sent by the imperial court with chaff and distributed it to the people to eat, almost causing a civil unrest. ”
"I know that it's what animals eat, so where did my disaster relief food go?" Li Jun said angrily.
Yuan Zhan smiled bitterly: "Qi is here, then Jiang Zheng, the commander of Huaihua County, did not embezzle, but just exchanged the grain for dregs, and he also applied to come to Beijing to defend himself." ”
"Okay, treat my people like animals, I want to see what he can say when he comes to Beijing." Li Jun said coldly.
"Your Majesty."
"There is also the matter of disaster relief, we must not be careless, the imperial court selected and sent officials to these two counties, and sent another decree to investigate and deal with the dismissal of Nonrex in these two counties, if these two counties are like the other three counties, early warning, there will be no current situation."
"No, the ministers obey."
After dealing with these things, Li Jun went to the harem angrily, and when Li Jun arrived at the harem, he reacted, as far as the disaster in these two counties was concerned, the cabinet could handle it by itself, and there was no need to use such a big battle to say it in front of him, the reason why it was like this is only one reason, that is, the ministers are ready to give themselves eye medicine again.
So Li Jun immediately asked He Shen, "Are there any rumors in the capital recently?" ”
"Your Majesty, there have been some unruly talks in the capital recently, and your Majesty doesn't listen to it." He Shen replied cautiously.
Li Jun slapped the table heavily and said, "What? Do you dare to hide it now? ”
He Shen hurriedly knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty forgives me, the old slave doesn't dare." ”
"Let's be honest." Li Jun snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty, recently some people in the capital said that Your Majesty has a beauty, so she will not go to court, and his virtue is not cultivated, so God sent a plague of locusts to warn Your Majesty." He Shen said tremblingly.
Li Jun sneered and said, "Arrange for Jinyi Wei to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, I don't believe that ordinary people have this kind of insight." ”
"No, the old slave obeys."
Jin Yiwei has actually been investigating this matter for a long time, because Li Jun has indeed played a little too much recently, so Jin Yiwei commanded He Jun and did not dare to report to Li Jun.
On this day, He Shen personally went to Jinyiwei and reprimanded He Jun fiercely, He Jun knew that he had done something wrong again this time, He Jun wiped the cold sweat on his head and asked carefully: "Uncle, now Your Majesty is furious, what should my nephew do?" ”
"Bastard thing, this kind of thing is not reported, it is really a bear's heart and a leopard's guts, now hurry up to find out the source of this rumor, remember, no matter who is involved this time, don't be afraid, report it truthfully to Your Majesty." He Shen hated that iron could not become steel.
He Jun hurriedly nodded and agreed: "My nephew knows, I'll check it now." ”
After He Jun gave the death order, the strength of Jinyiwei could not be underestimated, and soon the source of the rumors was clarified, He Jun looked at the list in his hand and sneered and entered the palace.
After He Jun entered the palace, Li Jun was drinking with Gongsun Qiong, and He Jun didn't dare to raise his head and said: "Your Majesty, the slave has found out who is behind the scenes, please take a look." ”
After Li Jun took the list, he said coldly: "Go and get the 20th board by yourself, and have a long memory." ”
"No." He Jun agreed with a bitter face, He Jun is considered to be Li Jun's retainer, so no one can say anything about this kind of treatment.
Li Jun looked at the list in front of him and sneered: "Pei's family, Gao Pei's father-in-law's family, he is really capable, He Shen, go find a crime to demote the Pei family's people, let them calm and calm, and send Chao'er to the queen these days, and let Concubine Liao reflect on it in the palace for a few days." ”
"No, the old slave obeys." He Shen didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly replied.
After He Shen left, Li Jun lay down in Gongsun Qiong's arms, and Gongsun Qiong whispered: "Your Majesty, my father entered the palace two days ago and reprimanded the concubine fiercely, did the concubine really do something wrong?" ”
Li Jun waved his hand and said: "Hmph, regardless of them, I feel that I am too good to these ministers, and now they dare to take care of my family affairs, and I don't delay state affairs, and I hold on to my pigtails one by one, which is really unreasonable." ”
"Your Majesty is angry, and the concubines also feel that the ministers are in charge too much, and the concubines just learned a dance a few days ago, do you want to dance it for Your Majesty." Gongsun Qiong smiled and comforted.
Li Jun clapped his hands and said with interest: "Haha, okay." ”
Gao Pei had just finished class in Gantang that day, and he wanted to have a few drinks with a few classmates, but he saw his little guy anxiously glancing at him, Gao Pei sent a few classmates away first, and then came to the side of the little guy and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The little servant hurriedly replied: "Childe, just now the lady sent a letter, saying that the father-in-law and the uncle didn't know what mistakes they made today, and they were demoted at the same time. ”
Gao Pei was taken aback, and hurriedly went to find a scholar to take leave and returned to Chang'an, he has not been home in recent days, so he doesn't know much about Chang'an, and now his father-in-law and brother-in-law are demoted at the same time, which is by no means an ordinary thing.
After Gao Pei returned home, his wife Pei Shi hurriedly greeted him, Pei Shi is a very virtuous woman, since she married herself, she has not caused trouble for herself, and she also gave birth to a daughter for herself, so Gao Pei also respects his wife very much.
When Pei saw Gao Pei, he said with a crying voice: "Husband, Daddy is here, and he is waiting for you in the house." ”
Gao Pei wiped Pei's tears and comforted: "Don't be afraid, everything has me." ”
After speaking, he took his wife's hand and entered the house together, and his father-in-law Pei Ting saw Gao Pei and quickly stood up and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, you can save me." ”
Gao Pei first asked Pei Shi to go down to prepare the meal, and then asked coldly: "Father-in-law, tell me, what did you do?" ”
Pei Ting then told Gao Pei about Jin Shan'er letting him spread rumors, and Gao Pei sighed after hearing it: "Father-in-law, don't worry, Your Majesty is just a reminder for you now, you and your uncle should go below to exercise first, and when Your Majesty's anger is gone, you will naturally come back, and I will go to the palace to find my mother now." ”
Although Pei Ting was very reluctant to take the position of the waiter of the Criminal Department, he thought about it carefully and this was the best way, so he nodded and agreed.
