Downing stood on the side of the street, biting off the last sugar gourd, then took a few steps and threw the bamboo sticks into the trash can on the side of the street.

In order to build a civilized new Jingshi, since half a year ago, littering has been prohibited on the streets of Jingshi, and there will be a garbage can every other section, and those who litter will be fined more than three yuan and less than ten yuan.

Tomorrow should be the last court meeting of the year, and after tomorrow, if there is no urgent matter, the major officials will be suspended until after the Lantern Festival.

From the Lang of the Five Grades, he only needs to go to the court when he is called, because Tang Ning has many identities and is not restricted by this rule, but he still doesn't plan to go to the court tomorrow, but he really wants to see why King Kang doesn't give him a chance, whether to go or not, it's really nerve-wracking.

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "Are you worried about King Kang?" ”

Tang Ning shook his head, he had only recently discovered that King Kang had a trait, he could always make good things bad and bad things worse, just based on this, he decided to go and see it tomorrow.

Seeing that Tang Ning was not too worried, Tang Yaoyao also relieved his heart, the two walked around the street, and when they got home, Tang Yaoyao stopped him at the door and asked again: "Don't you really think that I have changed anything from before?" ”

Tang Ning stopped, looked at her deliberately erected chest, thought for a while, and said, "Your figure ...... It seems to be better than before. ”

"Indecent!"

Tang Yaoyao glared at him, hid the smile on the corner of his mouth, and quickly ran into the house.

Tang Ning stood at the door of the house, wondering if Tang Xiaoxiao just wanted to scold him, saying that she was not in good shape and she was angry, and it was not right to praise her, women were really inexplicable, it was better to deal with King Kang, you could see his thoughts at the first glance, and you could predict his fate at the second glance.

The last court meeting of the old year generally does not last very long, because after a few days, it is the largest court meeting in the court meeting, and the various departments summarize the old year and look forward to the new year, and there are no two hours that cannot be ended.

Tang Ning went to the court today as the general of Zuo Xiaowei Zhonglang, the general of the sixteenth guard, unless there is something, he will not appear in the court, and he does not know any of the several military attaches around.

Today's early dynasty is still based on the anti-corruption incident at the end of the year, and the topic revolves around the more than ten officials.

The Dali Temple and the Criminal Department read out the sentences for those offenders in public, and the Household Department counted the silver taels confiscated from these people's houses, and handed over all the property totaling more than 1 million taels to the state treasury, and the Ministry of Officials made transfers for these vacant positions.

Tang Ning could see that Emperor Chen's mood was not very good today, and his eyes looked at King Kang from time to time, and the hundred officials were all old foxes who knew how to observe words and feelings, today's morning dynasty was going very smoothly, no one raised the bar, and no one argued, after Fang Hong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, retreated, no one spoke again.

Wei Jian waited for a while, looked at Emperor Chen, stepped forward, and said, "If you adults don't have anything to do, today's morning dynasty will end here. ”

King Kang raised his head, took a step forward, and said, "Father, the son has something to do!" ”

Emperor Chen glanced at him and said lightly: "If there is anything, go to the imperial study and talk about it." ”

King Kang hurriedly said: "Father, this matter is very important, it is the trend of the people in Beijing, and the people have hated some officials in the court for a long time, so they hereby write a book of the people......"

"Retreat!" Emperor Chen stood up, glanced at King Kang, and said, "King Kang, King Duan, King Huai, the three of you, come to the imperial study." ”

King Kang's words were interrupted, although he was still unwilling, but Emperor Chen had already left, and he could only put away the fold in his hand, but his eyes glanced at King Duan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

King Duan was shocked by his sight, these days King Kang grabbed the matter of Liufu's birthday banquet and chased him hard, this time even the book of the people was moved out, and in the imperial study for a while, I am afraid that it will not be calm.

King Huai walked out, looked at the two of them, and said, "Two royal brothers, let's go quickly, don't let my father wait in a hurry." ”

Tang Ning originally thought that there would be a lively scene in the morning today, but he found that he came in vain, and there would definitely be excitement in the imperial study for a while, but outsiders couldn't see it.

He sighed, walked out of the palace gate along the same road, and at a certain moment, he saw a familiar figure in front of him, his steps quickened slightly, walked to the person's side, and said, "Lord Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I haven't congratulated you on your ascension." ”

Liu Jin's rank in the former ancestral hall did not rise, but in a very short period of time, he became the most qualified official in the Ministry of Rites, and his future was limitless.

Liu Jin looked at him, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said, "It's all the blessing of Lord Tuotang." ”

Tangning looked at him, "What? ”

Liu Jin's eyelids jumped, and he immediately said: "Xiaguan means that since Lord Tang came to the Ministry of Rites that time, Xiaguan's luck has been very good, and this time it can't be said that it is also the good luck that Lord Tang brought me......"

When he was in the Ministry of Rites, Tang Ning didn't find out that Langzhong of the Ancestral Department was so good at talking, he didn't have a good impression of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but today's impression of Liu Jin has changed slightly.

This time Liu Fu's birthday, he did not participate, nor did he send congratulatory gifts, sure enough, it was out of the mud and not stained, he waved his hand and said: "What did Lord Liu say, Lord Liu can have today, it is the result of your own efforts, if Lord Liu is the same as Liu Shilang, if he is not clean, I am afraid that the current fate will be the same as Liu Shilang." ”

Liu Jin patted his chest and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Lord Tang, Xiaguan and Liu Shilang are definitely different!" ”

Liu Jin talked a little too much today, and Tang Ning said goodbye to him in front of the palace gate after a few words of greeting.

At the same time, inside the Imperial Study.

Emperor Chen walked up, sat down, looked at King Kang, and said, "What did you want to say just now, say it." ”

King Kang immediately said: "Back to my father, Erchen received a letter from Wanmin yesterday, and learned that the people in Beijing are dissatisfied with some corrupt officials in the court to the extreme, and Erchen ......"

Before Emperor Chen could finish speaking, he stood up, walked up to him, and asked, "You asked those newspapers that circulated in Jingshi yesterday to be printed, right?" ”

King Kang was stunned, Emperor Chen's face was gloomy, he swallowed his saliva, and said, "Father, Emperor ......"

"The Book of the People?" Emperor Chen looked at him coldly and said, "Hijacking public opinion and disturbing the dynasty, are you going to rebel!" ”

Poof!

"Father's anger!" King Kang looked at Emperor Chen, cold sweat broke out on his forehead instantly, and he fell to his knees with a pop. said in a trembling voice: "Erchen doesn't dare!" ”

"Don't dare?" Under the anger of Emperor Chen, he kicked him on the shoulder and said coldly: "Hijacking public opinion, manipulating public opinion, forming parties for personal gain, and cracking down on dissidents, what else do you dare not do?" ”

Duan Wang looked at the scene in front of him, a little unable to believe his eyes.

I thought that King Kang was pressing forward step by step, and even the Wanmin Book was invited out, and he could no longer shelter those officials who supported him, and this time he would suffer heavy losses.

But who would have thought that the situation was just the opposite of what he expected, the last time he saw his father and the emperor so angry, it was the time when the case of Han Ming, the servant of the household department, was reported, but that time he was replaced by the current King Kang.

King Kang's sweat had already soaked his clothes, and he knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and could only say again and again: "Erchen is wronged, Erchen is wronged!" ”

At this time, what kind of blow to King Duan, what revenge on Tang Ning, all of them were left behind by him, and he could see that his father was really angry......

Even at this moment, Tang Ning's eyes from yesterday couldn't help but appear in his mind, and it was not until this moment that he understood the pitiful deep meaning in his eyes.

"Wronged?" Emperor Chen glanced at him and asked, "What you have done, all of them are on my desk, you say, which one did I wrong?" ”

King Kang was frightened in his heart, and he didn't dare to argue anymore, squeezed out a few tears, and wept: "Father, the son knows that he is wrong, and the son knows that he is wrong......

Emperor Chen stood in the hall, calmed down for a while, glanced at him coldly, and said, "Only once, if there is a next time, you can go back to your fiefdom." ”

King Kang's body trembled, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and thanked him: "Father Xie, don't dare next time, your son will definitely not dare next time!" ”

Emperor Chen looked at him and said: "Those who discuss the government in vain and hold public opinion hostage, I will definitely investigate to the end, from today onwards, you have thought about it in the mansion for three months, and you are not allowed to leave the mansion within three months!" ”

King Kang's heart was cold, his father was so angry, this time he was instructed by him to secretly let those powerful people who published newspapers in the bookstore, I am afraid that none of them will be able to keep it, but he also knows that it is already good for him to protect himself at this moment, and it is better to lose a few people than to drive him back to the fiefdom.

As soon as he thought about it, he immediately said: "Father, as far as his sons know, the Tang people in Tangning publish newspapers every day and discuss the government ...... in vain."

Emperor Chen looked at him and said, "That's what I asked him to print, do you have any opinions?" ”

King Kang was stunned, looked at Emperor Chen's eyes, shuddered, and immediately said, "No, no ......"

At this moment, he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart.

He doubted that Tang Ning and him, who was the prince and who was the minister......
