From last year to this year, it was an eventful autumn for Chen State, the rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, and the changes in the northwest, which were placed in the past, which was bound to make the people of the court panic, but in the past two years, they have experienced a lot of winds and waves, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the national strength has not only not regressed, but is thriving.

Compared with the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River and the war in the northwest, the small things that happened in Beijing are naturally not worth mentioning.

It has been rumored in Beijing that Tang Ning, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Princess Pingyang have had a personal affair, and for several days, no imperial history or official has seized the matter to impeach.

Tang Ning went to the northwest before someone instigated this matter, obviously with ulterior motives, but although he left, his background in Beijing is not something that ordinary people can afford.

The matter of the Northern Expedition was confirmed, and after the army was launched, there was no major event in the court in the short term.

The two officials of the Sixth Department routinely reported some things, and one of the imperial historians stepped forward, hugged the wat board, and said, "The minister wants to impeach Princess Yiyang." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was some silence in the hall.

There will be some excerpts of impeachment in the court every day, but most of them are impeachment of such and such officials, such and such magnates, and impeachment of children of the royal family, and they are not seen several times a year.

Emperor Chen looked at him and asked, "What do you want to impeach Yiyang?" ”

The imperial history said: "Two years ago, in order to build her own courtyard, Princess Yiyang invaded the house, and connived at her subordinates to hurt people, Xu Yushi was the master of the people, and wrote to impeach Princess Yiyang, but she borrowed her power and deposed from the Yushi Terrace, as a princess, she bullied the people, persecuted the court officials, and relied on the identity of the princess to bully people and lawlessness, hoping that Your Majesty would be clear." ”

Emperor Chen frowned and asked, "Is there such a thing?" ”

That Yushi said: "The officials have made decisions for Xu Yushi's grievances, and Xu Yushi has now returned to Beijing, and Your Majesty will know it when he checks." ”

Princess Yiyang is used to bullying the people on weekdays, and even the officials in the court dare not provoke her, but she should not provoke those people in Yushitai.

When the last imperial doctor was in power, he couldn't tolerate half a grain of sand in his eyes, and even His Majesty was impeached in three days, let alone a princess?

Although over the years, Yu Shitai's habit of scolding the emperor has been reined in, but there are still some temperaments in his bones that are not afraid of death.

Emperor Chen looked at him and said, "I will find out about this matter, you go down first." ”

The imperial history still stood in place, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this is the first crime of the minister's impeachment of Princess Yiyang, oppressing the people and interfering in court affairs is one of the crimes, she is a princess, but she is not clean and self-conscious, often goes in and out of the place of prostitutes, and raises several male prostitutes in the princess's mansion, corrupting the royal atmosphere, which is the second crime. ”

Many officials looked up at him, and said in their hearts that this young imperial historian really dared to say it.

Princess Yiyang is a famous slut in Beijing, and everyone knows about it, but because of her power and royal majesty, she doesn't dare to mention it.

He said this in front of the civil and military officials, not only did he not give face to Princess Yiyang, but he also did not even give His Majesty's face.

Emperor Chen's face was a little unbearable, after all, it was his daughter who did this kind of thing, and he was brought up in public, and he, as a father, was also embarrassed.

With a calm face, he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

The hundred officials are all good at observing words and feelings, and when they saw His Majesty's face sink, they knew that His Majesty was already dissatisfied in his heart, and anyone with a discerning eye should know that it was enough to stop and leave some face for His Majesty.

The young imperial historian raised his head and said, "Back to Your Majesty, there is more." ”

He hugged the wat board and said: "Princess Yiyang's third crime is that she connived at her subordinates, spread rumors, slandered the royal princess and the court officials, and caused great damage to the reputation of Princess Pingyang and the servants of the ministry, and ......the impact was extremely bad.

The rumors of Princess Pingyang and the servants of the Ministry of Officials have been spreading in Beijing these days, and everyone knows about them, and all officials have naturally heard about them.

But what they didn't expect was that Princess Yiyang was actually making trouble behind her back, and it was very lively.

Emperor Chen looked back at Wei Jian, Wei Jian nodded helplessly, and said, "The slave just received the news of the secret spy, and he hasn't had time to tell His Majesty yet......"

Emperor Chen's face sank like water, looked down, and said: "I will investigate this matter strictly and retreat from the court......

……

Princess Yiyang's Mansion.

Princess Yiyang was about to go out, when suddenly several eunuchs and palace maids walked in from outside.

Princess Yiyang looked at them and said in surprise, "What are you doing?" ”

An old palace maid looked at him and said, "On the orders of His Majesty, there are several cases that require the cooperation of the princess. ”

Princess Yiyang looked at her, chuckled in her heart, and asked, "What case?" ”

The old palace maid said: "Someone impeached the princess for encroaching on the private house, taking revenge on the imperial history, walking rumors, slandering the court officials and Princess Pingyang......"

Princess Yiyang held her forehead and said with a pale face: "A bunch of nonsense, it's just a bunch of nonsense, will this princess do such a thing, who are you, you dare to slander this princess......"

The old palace maid looked at her and said, "Whether it is slandering the princess or not, you will find out by checking." ”

……

Yushitai's impeachment of Princess Yiyang has human and material evidence, and she can't stand up to inspection at all.

Her other courtyard is built on the site of someone else's field, the imperial history who was forced by her to leave the capital, and the resume is also available in the ministry, slandering the court officials and princesses to have an affair, and the people of the princess's mansion heard that His Majesty asked them to strictly investigate, and they knelt on the ground to confess......

After the truth was revealed, everyone finally understood who the royal shame was, and the rumors of Princess Pingyang and Tang Ning were self-defeating.

The culprit of these things, Princess Yiyang, was punished not lightly this time.

She became the first princess in this dynasty to be demoted to the county lord, Princess Yiyang became the county lord of Yiyang, and was forcibly escorted to a Taoist temple somewhere outside the city, meditating on her own mistakes, repenting and reforming......

Princess Yiyang is very famous in Beijing, and the matter of the ten men in the night is what she did, and the life of abstinence for a year is more uncomfortable than death for her.

A certain hall of the Imperial Palace.

Concubine Tang Hui looked at Emperor Chen and whispered, "Your Majesty, is the punishment of Yiyang too heavy this time?" ”

Emperor Chen calmed his face and said: "It's not serious at all, look at what kind of bastard things she does, if she doesn't know how to repent, the royal face will be lost by her sooner or later!" ”

Concubine Tang Hui lowered her head and stopped talking about this matter, and only after a while did she raise her head and say: "By the way, this time Pingyang is a disaster, does Your Majesty want to send someone to Tang Mansion and Pingyang Mansion to investigate, and return her innocence?" ”

The Queen Mother glanced at her and said: "What to check, Tang Shilang put down his family and worked hard for the court in the north, as soon as he left on the front foot, His Majesty sent someone to check his home, what do you make him think in his heart, doesn't this make the important ministers chill?" ”

Emperor Chen nodded and said, "The queen mother is right, since the truth has been revealed, don't do it again." ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "Yiyang, this child is not the same, but she just pities her colt, and it is definitely not a taste in her heart......

Princess Yiyang's Mansion, Zhang Chao hummed a brisk tune, looked at the people in the house, and said: "This month, everyone's money has increased tenfold, and in addition, let the kitchen cook a few good wines and dishes and send them to my room......"
