The Young Prince Chapter 53 Li Zong
In the end, Liu Rong had to have dinner with Li Ji and his two younger brothers with tears.
When he returned to his palace, he let Wang Sheng hold the lamp, and then took out the dozens of volumes of Han law given by Zhidu and read them one by one.
Liu Rong still knows a little about the Han law, the Han inherited the Qin system, and the Qin law is today's Han law. However, compared with the harshness of the Qin law, the emperors of the early Han Dynasty still made some modifications.
When Emperor Xiaowen was in the past, there was Ti Ying to save his father. At that time, Chun Yuyi was originally an official to Taicang Order, but he was not here, so he resigned and went home to practice medicine.
Once, Chun Yuyi's wife, who was treating a merchant's wife, fell ill, and the patient took medicine, but the illness did not improve. After a few days he died, and the merchant complained to the government that he had been treated by mistake. The local officials condemned him to corporal punishment.
PS: At that time, corporal punishment was tattooing on the face, cutting off the nose, cutting off the left or right foot, etc.
Chun Yuyi sighed, giving birth to a son does not give birth to a man, and there is no messenger in the emergency.
But she didn't want to, Ti Ying and a woman actually followed the prisoner car to Chang'an, asked someone to write a note, and handed it to the person guarding the door to present the Son of Heaven at the gate of the palace.
Emperor Wen saw that it was a woman who wrote the book, so he dealt with it personally.
The chapter says: My father has sinned and is unforgivable, and I am my daughter, and I have tasted my father's sin by becoming a slave of my own will.
Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was moved by this, so he issued an edict in court, and the punishment of abolition of flesh was changed to a court staff.
The courtiers of the Western Han Dynasty took great pains to prevent the Han Dynasty from being as strict as the Qin Dynasty. Once, Emperor Wen and Zhang Shizhi went to Lin Yuan to watch the tiger, and asked some questions to the management officials, but they didn't know three questions. I don't want to be in a tiger circle on one side, but I have a fluent answer.
Emperor Wen was about to be promoted to his official position on the spot, and Zhang Shizhi immediately stepped forward to stop him. Asked the Son of Heaven: Your Majesty thinks that the Marquis of Jiang, Zhou Bo, and the Marquis of Yingyin, who are these people. Emperor Wen replied, this elder also.
I asked again, how is Dongyang Hou Zhang Xiang? Emperor Wen replied again, also for the elderly.
Hearing this, Zhang Shizhi said: "The people of Jianghou and Dongyang Hou are all elders and have great talents, but they are not good at words.
The Qin Dynasty is to reuse officials like this tiger circle and the like, and the officials who are clever and clever to make the sword and pen die."
When Emperor Wen heard this, he didn't mention the promotion of the Tiger Circle.
This is also the reason why the Western Han Dynasty followed the Qin law but was able to not destroy its country.
Before he knew it, Liu Rong had already read several volumes, and Liu Rong only felt that his eyes were sour. Holding a bamboo slip in his hand, he lay on top of the bookcase and fell asleep.
Wang Sheng, who was on the side, immediately brought a blanket and wanted to cover Liu Rong, and Wang Sheng woke up as soon as he got close to Liu Rong.
Wang Sheng immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your Highness, the slave and maid will only do this when they see Your Highness sleeping here, and ask Your Highness for forgiveness."
Liu Rong got up and said, "Get up and step down, it's not your fault."
After the words fell, Liu Rong lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Two days later, Liu Rong finally finished reading the nine chapters of the Han Law, and saw Zhidu again. Now, His Majesty has handed over the matter of the Chang'an criminal case to His Highness."
After speaking, he also found a subordinate official and informed Liu Rong, saying: "This is the official who handles the Chang'an criminal case on weekdays, and then he will assist His Highness from the side."
Sure enough, Zhi Du never asked about this matter since then, and Liu Rong thought that there would be an opportunity to show his skills, who would have thought that after more than half a month, no one came here to complain.
In the end, under the notice of the subordinate official Ma Zhi, I learned that the original court lieutenant Chang'an Department had some overlap with the responsibilities of the Inner History Mansion. Most of the criminal case reporters go to the Inner History Mansion, so they will be so idle............
Liu Rong also felt helpless when he heard this, so he had to go to court with a group of courtiers on weekdays, but at this time, inaction prevailed, and there were few major events back and forth between the court.
At most, it was just the transfer of officials, which made Liu Rong feel more and more bored.
I see many courtiers on weekdays, except for the teacher Jia Yi, all of them are just nodding friends. Liu Rongke knew very well that it was taboo for the prince to connect with the courtiers, and it would definitely dislike the son of heaven.
Even some people who see the wind and steer the rudder, Liu Rong doesn't say much to them, and these people see Liu Rong like this, so they no longer go to the hot face and stick the cold buttocks............
When Liu Qi, the son of heaven, saw Liu Rong like this, he was also a little satisfied in his heart. summoned Liu Rong in the Qilin Palace.
He asked, "How about going to the Imperial Governor's Office?" ”。
Liu Rong replied: "Although the father ordered his son to be in charge of the affairs of the court lieutenant Chang'an, half a month later, there is no case that can be disposed of by the son."
Finally, after listening to Liu Rong's explanation, I understood the reason.
The Son of Heaven smiled: "Don't be anxious, there will be a chance for you to play back."
At this time, King Liang, who was far away in Liang and drank with his ministers, also got the news that the Son of Heaven ordered Liu Rong to enter the court to participate in politics.
He was very unhappy in his heart, picked up the wine on the table and drank it, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, sighed: "What does Your Majesty mean by this!" ”。
All the ministers of the Liang State did not dare to speak, and Prime Minister Han Anguo had to bite the bullet and said: "The king does not have to come, there are many good things, and His Majesty only ordered the prince Liu Rong to participate in politics, and did not set up as the crown prince, the king naturally still has a chance, the king is clear."
Under the persuasion of Han Anguo, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, finally calmed down.
………………………………………………………………
Sure enough, after Liu Rong spent a few days in leisure, someone really came to the court to complain, and Liu Rong was of course happy.
When he saw the accuser, Liu Rong couldn't be happy again............
The person standing in the hall is the son of Li Ben, the brother of Li Ji, and the cousin of Liu Rong - Li Zong.
Li Zongqi people, Liu Rong knows that its absurdity is not much worse than Chen Xu, and he has an aunt who is the emperor's favorite concubine in Chang'an City with some nephews and nephews.
Seeing him here, Liu Rong had a bad premonition in his heart.
Liu Rong just said: "Who is the next station!" ”。
But I saw the man flattering and smiled: "How can Your Highness not know me, I am your uncle's son Li Zong." Some time ago, I accompanied my father to the palace to visit my aunt, and I also saw His Royal Highness that day, so how can you not know me today."
Seeing Li Zong like this, Liu Rong was even more disgusted in his heart, and said sharply: "Shut up!" I was ordered by His Majesty to take charge of Chang'an Prison, and I don't know any cousin or cousin. If you come to complain, come quickly, and leave quickly if you have nothing to do!! ”。
Li Zong didn't know how Liu Rong could be angry, so he had to change his words and said: "Your Highness, I have something to complain about, and I hope Your Highness will make the decision for me."
Liu Rong didn't look at Li Zong, and said, "What's the matter? The Tao comes".
Li Zong didn't care either, and said: "Recently, the villain recently wanted to marry the daughter of Li Min, the mayor of Zhongyi in Chang'an East City, as a concubine, but he charged me ten gold as a matchmaker, but he didn't want this woman to die suddenly.
The villain asked the mayor Li Min for the ten gold, but he didn't want the man to say that there had never been such a thing, so I came here to complain to this person, hoping that His Royal Highness would make the decision for me."
Liu Rong didn't say much, but just asked his subordinate official Ma to find the mayor Li Min, and during this period, Li Zong of course stepped forward and slapped Liu Rong's ass vigorously.
Liu Rong just knelt in the hall, deaf to his ears, his eyes closed.
When Li Zong saw this, he no longer wanted to be bored. In less than half an hour, Ma Zhi arrived with the mayor Li Min.
When Li Min entered the hall with Ma Zhi, his eyes were still as stunned as a chicken, and when he saw Lizong in the hall, his eyes seemed to become fierce.
Liu Rong asked, "You are Li Min, the mayor of Chang'an East City."
The man immediately knelt down and replied, "The villain is."
Pointing to Li Zong, Liu Rong asked, "This person sued you for accepting ten gold from him and not returning it, but there is such a thing."
Before Li Min could speak, Li Zong said in advance: "This is His Royal Highness the current prince, the son of my aunt, you don't want to return my gold soon."
The mayor is a lowest-rate official, and he can't be called an official, and it can be said that in Chang'an City, he is not as good as a row of domestic slaves. How could I have seen who the prince was, and when I heard Li Zong's words, my aunt Yunyun was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed, and said with tears streaming down her face: "Your Highness, Your Highness, the villain has really never received this person's gold."
Liu Rong was furious when he saw that Li Zong dared to threaten people in public, and said, "Fanatic! When does His Highness want you to speak, shut up!! ”。
Originally, Li Zong still wanted to take advantage of his relative's prestige, but seeing that Liu Rong was really angry, Li Zong didn't dare to say more.
Liu Rong asked: "Li Min, since you have never accepted Li Zong's gold, why did Li Zong say that you accepted his strength as a matchmaker."
Li Min, who was kneeling on the ground, cautiously, looked sideways at the unscrupulous Li Zong on the side, and said tremblingly: "Villain...... The villain ......".
Seeing this, Liu Rong said to Li Zhi: "You go and bring Li Zong down."
Li Zhi and Li Zong were both a little surprised, and Li Zhi said, "Your Highness...... It seems ......".
"Your Highness's order, do you dare to disobey?" , Liu Rong said with a gloomy face.
"No, how dare your subordinates disobey", Li said with a salute.
Li Zong had to leave reluctantly, thinking that when he came to find his cousin Liu Rong at this time, he must have been caught, and he didn't want to ............
Seeing that Li Zong was taken down, Liu Rongcai spoke again: "Li Min, although I have some relatives with that Li Zong, I am the heir of the Han Heavenly Family, and I will never have any favoritism towards him, if you have any grievances, you can tell them."
At this point, Li Min cried for a while before he said: "Your Highness, some time ago, the daughter of the villain was on the street with the villain, but she didn't want to be bumped into by Li Zong.
He was about to molest my daughter on the street, but the villain stopped him, but he was beaten by his family slaves without wanting to, and his pain has not healed to this day.
And I don't know where he came from, when he learned where the villain's house was, he came to the door and said that he wanted to take my daughter as his concubine, and said that he would give the villain ten gold as a matchmaker.
He is such an absurd person, how could the villain want to marry his daughter to him, but Na Li Zong came to the door several times to persecute him. I don't want to, the little girl committed suicide by taking poison at home yesterday, and when she was mourning today, Na Li Zong came to my house again to force the villain to hand over ten gold, and the villain really didn't accept the gold."
After speaking, Li Min knelt on the ground and cried again.
Liu Rong grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and he was favored by the first emperor, but he really had never heard of such a thing.
The angry man was really angry, as if he was about to lose his mind, and pulled out his waist with a sword and said: "Maniac! I'm going to slaughter him!! ”。
After speaking, he was going to take a sword to find Li Zong, how could Wang Sheng on the side not be shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to hug Liu Rong's feet, and shouted hoarsely: "Your Highness can't, Your Highness can't, if you kill Li Zong, how will you explain to Li Niangniang."
