Chapter 110: Good Birds Choose Wood to Supervise Punishment
"Sweeping the flowers and waiting" is the last time Su Fengjin knelt in front of the guard of the East Palace, and what King Yong'an said to her was very obvious. Su Fengjin originally wanted to plan and pretend to meet him, so that King Yongan would suffer some hardships, but he didn't think that this happened now, and he was really in no mood to be in a false relationship with him.
King Yong'an said meaningfully: "Maybe this king can solve Su Gongzi's troubles?" ”
He said it beautifully and crisply, and he couldn't avoid him sooner or later, so Su Fengjin simply patted off the horse's back and jumped directly into the carriage.
Suo Yi's eyes were a little more amazing, "Su Gongzi is very skilled, it seems that he has recovered from the last horse fall." ”
"There is no need to mention the past, how does the prince want to solve the trouble of Weichen, and what trouble does Weichen have?" Su Fengjin stared at him, her eyes indifferent.
"Su Gongzi, do you know why this king doesn't call you Wei Rate? Because the king knows that sooner or later you will take refuge in the king. The decline of the East Palace is not a day or two, he is the concubine of the Middle Palace, his identity, background, etiquette, and public opinion are all behind him, but His Majesty doesn't like it. Can Su Gongzi have a way forward with Donggong Yan? ”
Su Fengjin was silent, not knowing what Suoyi wanted to say.
"Su Gongzi, good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the lord to serve. Since the East Palace can't shelter you, why doesn't Su Gongzi choose another master? This king has always had a heart for talent, and he will never treat Su Gongzi badly. If Su Gongzi agreed, His Majesty would be able to move away now that His Majesty was staring at the gossip of Su Gongzi and the East Palace. Isn't that the best of both worlds? ”
Su Fengjin knew that he was clever and clever, but he didn't expect him to analyze his current situation so thoroughly. It is indeed a good idea to solve your own troubles by choosing him as the master.
She smiled lightly, "In this way, then thank King Yong'an for his protection." “
Hearing this, Suo Yi hooked the corners of his mouth, looking down at the government and the opposition. The two separated, Su Fengjin thought for a moment, and rode back to Su Mansion. Suo Yi is suspicious and fickle, and although he is persistent in himself, he does not believe in him. Since you want to take refuge, you must prepare a letter of resignation.
"Miss, what is this for?" Qiaoyan gave her a wick, and it was rare to see her writing hard.
Su Fengjin didn't reply, wrote the fold and dried it, and handed it in directly the next day. Sure enough, a day later, His Majesty was summoned. She took a deep breath and calmed down.
Emperor Liang Hui glanced at Su Fengjin, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "You played this excerpt?" But remember what was written on it, isn't it a drunk bar? ”
Su Fengjin kowtowed to the ground and didn't dare to raise her head, "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is very clear, and he is not drunk, but he is indignant in his heart." ”
"The prince has always been partial to you, but this time ......" Emperor Liang Hui paused for a moment, as if he was observing, "I heard that he beat you with his own hands?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince blames Weichen and teaches Weichen some lessons, which is a blessing for Weichen. But the matter of Weichen's performance is related to the veterans of the nine battalions, and these veterans have nowhere to settle and no home. Hearing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to get rid of them, there was a quarrel in the camp and many soldiers were injured. If this matter is not settled, the camp will be cold. ”
"The Nine Battalions are the East Palace Guards, even if they are cold, what does it have to do with me?" Emperor Liang Hui said with a torch in his eyes.
Su Fengjin gritted her teeth and continued: "Your Majesty, everyone understands the truth of pushing oneself and others. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince makes this mistake and His Majesty still ignores it, then what should the three major battalions in the capital think, and the army guarding Mobei, Southern Qi, and Longxi? What about the 16th division of the Liang army? They will feel that their Majesty, who swore allegiance to the death, is not a wise monarch who cares about the world! ”
"Presumptuous!" The Duke of Qu Man on the side immediately reprimanded angrily.
The hall was terrifyingly quiet, Su Fengjin maintained a kneeling posture, and even his arms were sore and trembling, before Emperor Liang Hui spoke.
"I hope what you say is what you think, this prince Wei can say a fair word for Donggong Wei, and it is not in vain that they follow you."
Hearing this, Su Fengjin breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, "It's just the duty of the micro-minister, but I also ask Your Majesty to reward the nine camps and soothe the hearts of the veterans." ”
Afterwards, Emperor Liang Hui threw down the fold and instructed: "Just do what you said on the fold, I will ask the household department to allocate a sum of money to you, settle the veterans, and comfort the soldiers." ”
"Your Majesty ...... Xie"
"But the prince is incompetent, and he can't pass it away."
Seeing what Emperor Liang Hui was writing with his pen, Su Fengjin frowned, her heart was uneasy, and her palms were full of sweat. After a while, Emperor Liang Hui handed over the written will to Qu Man and stared at Su Fengjin.
"This will, the prince Wei personally supervised it." Emperor Liang Hui had a sense of exploration and victory in his eyes, as if he could see Su Fengjin through.
Su Fengjin took the order to retire, and when the sun shone on her body, she realized that in this hot summer, even her fingertips were icy.
Your Majesty has a will, Su Fengjin didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went to the Zongren Mansion. When he saw Suo Ji come out of the house, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and Su Fengjin didn't dare to look at him.
"Donggong takes the order." As soon as Su Fengjin opened her mouth, she found that her voice was hoarse for some time.
"The prince wantonly dismissed the soldiers, regardless of the king's heart, and did not invite the will of the monarch's father and courtiers, and the aftermath was shaken, and it should have been severely punished...... Fifty. ”
Suo Ji looked at Su Fengjin for a while, lowered his eyes to cover all his emotions, and said with a smile.
The guards on the side frowned, "Su Weishu, this is starting now?" ”
"Your Majesty ordered Benwei to supervise this matter, when do you say it will start?"
The guard took the order and found a whip to stand behind the halberd.
Su Fengjin clenched her fists, "One, two, three, four......"
She didn't dare to look at Suo Ji, but the whip was very weighty, and it still made a muffled sound when it was drawn on the ground, and Suo Ji's body had always been weak, and at this moment his shoulders were soaked in blood from back to front, and the moon-white robe was shocking.
Suo Ji clenched his fists and didn't say a word, at first there were beads of sweat on his forehead, but halfway through, he couldn't even stop sweating, and his face was as pale as paper.
I don't know how long it took, but the guard said, "Wei Rate, it's already fifty." ”
Su Fengjin was surprised to realize that she had forgotten to count at some point.
When he came back to his senses, he looked at Suo Ji again, his eyes were closed, his good-looking brows were frowned, and he knelt on the ground tremblingly. There were bloodstained whip marks on the ground, which was terrifying.
"Help His Highness go back and rest." Su Fengjin said in a trembling voice.
Suo Ji separated the guard's hand, involved the wound, and frowned a little tighter, "No need, this palace can get up and go back, and ask Su Wei to go back to his life, tell his father on behalf of this palace, thank you for your father's grace!" ”
"Your Highness......" Su Fengjin stepped forward.
"Wei is busy, so you don't have to stay longer."
Su Fengjin immediately turned around and left, her legs seemed to be weak, and she almost fell down at the gate of the Zongren Mansion. She hurriedly stood with her door frame on her back, only to feel a tightness in her chest, and a surge of blood rushed up.
"Guard rate!" Footsteps behind him.
She hurriedly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and turned her head to look at the guards chasing out, "What's the matter?" ”
"Your Highness asked me to return this to Wei Yu." In the guard's hand was a Snow Moon folding fan, which was the one drawn by Su Fengjin......
