Chapter 505: Crying All the Time
Shen Leng knew that this matter would inevitably cause an uproar, although he didn't know who the little girl of the descendant clan was, but after all, the descendant clan was a descendant clan, and the queen was also a queen no matter how powerful she was, and there was also a prince, if Li Changze was not a prince but a prince, even if it was the eldest son of the emperor, it would naturally be inconvenient for him to come forward if something happened to the descendants, but now he is already the prince, the prince of the country, and the future emperor of Daning, the weight of the prince is naturally second only to the emperor in Daning.
But Shen Leng didn't care, just like what Meng Changan thought when he married Yuezhu Ming in Baishan Pass and worshiped Pei Tingshan when he pushed the door in, it was a big deal not to be this general.
Shen Leng and Meng Changan are not typical officials.
If the tea master doesn't make a move, he will make a move, although it is a girl, but Shen Leng doesn't mind rubbing the scabbard of his little hunting knife on her face.
As expected, this case naturally fell into the hands of Han Zhaozhi.
In fact, this is also His Majesty's attitude.
Of course, there will be no problem in handing it over to the Criminal Department, but the officials of the Criminal Department will inevitably waver a little.
On the one hand, there is a new upstart in the army who is just red, and the lady is still the goddaughter of the precious concubine who is in charge of the palace, and on the other side is the descendant who is not easy to mess with although he is forbearing, no matter how he says that the queen is still the queen, Han Zhaozhi will not care about this, but those officials in the criminal department may not be able to let go.
This matter involves not only people who can be seen in front of the stage, the concubines of the harem are all in good spirits after getting the news, and they are all waiting to see a good show, to put it simply, it is the contradiction between a young man of the Hou clan and Shen Leng and his wife, but it is not a head-to-head confrontation between Concubine Zhen and the queen.
Everyone knows that the queen was set aside by His Majesty many years ago, and Concubine Zhen in the harem is in charge, but the queen's identity is still there, and there are high and low.
Harem.
After the queen got the news, she sat at the window in a daze, but her fists were clenched so tightly, and the green tendons on the back of her hands were stretched out one by one, she no longer had a Zen statue in this palace, and after the last time she was smashed by His Majesty, she didn't dare to blatantly arrange it again, so most of the time she was reading a book, and the Zen statue was destroyed, but the Zen scriptures were brought into the palace, but no matter how much she read, her heart was difficult to be persuaded.
After taking a few deep breaths, the queen reached out and pulled out a pendant tied with a red rope around her neck from her clothes, it was a jade Zen statue, which had been worn close to her body for many years, and she held it in her palm for a long, long time, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Gao Yulou, the newly replaced head of the chamberlain in the queen's palace a while ago, lowered his voice and said: "The people from Niangniang's house have been kneeling outside the palace gate for a long time, is Niangniang seeing or not seeing?" ”
"Nope."
The queen let out a long breath: "Let them go back, if they provoke this matter themselves, they will solve it themselves, if they have a way, they will be angry, and if they can't be angry, they will endure it." ”
At this moment, the prince hurriedly came in from outside, and his face was ugly.
"The Queen Mother."
The prince walked quickly to the queen's side: "Something happened to my sister?" ”
"Hmm."
"How can she promise people after being broken at her age, how can the queen mother still be calm?"
"In the past, I might have been unable to hold my breath, but not this time."
The queen let go of the pendant in her hand and stuffed it back into her clothes: "You should understand Your Majesty's attitude, since he handed over the matter to Han Zhaozhi, he just wants to favor Shen Leng and that slut named Shen Chayan." ”
The prince had a cold face: "I can't let my sister suffer such a big grievance, and she doesn't even have someone to be angry with her." ”
"Ze'er."
The queen looked at the crown prince: "Have you heard that the slut named Shen Chayan is pregnant?" ”
The prince was stunned: "I haven't heard of it." ”
"Now you should understand why Your Majesty favored her, Your Majesty thought that Shen Leng's wild seed was his child, so the wild seed in Shen Chayan's belly was his grandson, and his mind provoked her, just in time for this time, His Majesty would not let that slut be implicated."
The prince's face turned slightly pale: "Could it be that my father really has other thoughts?" ”
"As I told you, no one can guess what your father thinks."
The queen was silent for a moment: "You go out and tell those people who came from my house, just say that I can't control this matter, and you can't control it, Your Majesty has handed it over to the Tingwei Mansion, and ask them to believe that the Tingwei Mansion will handle it impartially, and they will not come to the palace to beg me in the future." ”
The prince stood stunned for a while, then turned around and walked out of the palace gate, and soon there was a cry outside the palace gate, which was particularly sad.
A group of people stayed outside the palace gate and did not leave, surrounded the prince and asked him to make the decision, and asked him to persuade the queen to come forward.
At this moment, Wei Lan, the commander of the Ouchi guards, came over with a team of guards, walked in front of the prince and bowed: "The minister Wei Lan greets His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"What are you going to do?"
The prince frowned and asked.
"Your Majesty heard someone crying in the Dongnuan Pavilion, the loud voice made Your Majesty irritable and couldn't deal with it, Your Majesty asked the ministers to come over and take a look, Your Majesty's original words were...... For the New Year, see who is crying in Weiyang Palace, who is dead, or who is looking forward to death. ”
This is a very heavy statement.
The prince was not stupid, so he naturally heard the coldness in his words.
"Yes......"
He thought about it for a while, and he didn't need to explain anything to a Wei Lan, and turned to look at those people from the descendants: "Go back, you have already made your father angry, no matter how much you dare to mess around, I can't spare you." ”
Those people stood up and wanted to leave, but Wei Lanyi stretched out his hand to stop them.
"Your Majesty also said that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also in the Queen's Palace with those crying people, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very disappointed, almost the Spring Festival, everything in Daning is happy, but someone is crying in the Weiyang Palace, if His Royal Highness does not know how to deal with it, then it will be handled by the minister, Your Majesty said, let the minister watch here."
The prince's eyes were cold: "Wei Lan, don't go too far." ”
Wei Lan leaned over: "The minister doesn't dare, what the minister said was what His Majesty asked the minister to say, and what he asked, it was also asked by His Majesty, Your Highness, please hurry up, Your Majesty is still waiting for the minister to go back and return to his life." ”
The prince's hands were trembling, how far was it from here to Dongnuan Pavilion? How could his father hear the crying of the people here, it must be that his father had long expected that someone would come to his mother's house, so he arranged for someone to watch, and the anger in his heart rose all of a sudden, he had heard his mother's crying all these years, saying how his father was so unkind, if it wasn't for his mother's willingness to follow his father, how could his father have lived those few years in Cloud City.
Later, his father doted on Concubine Zhen again, which made the prince even more unhappy.
There was a time when the emperor wanted to let him follow Concubine Zhen, but the queen was going to die on the pillar of the palace gate, so he didn't continue.
In the prince's opinion, it has always been his father who has been at fault all these years.
But on second thought, my father actually calculated that he would be here.
A chill rose from his heart, and he seemed to vaguely see the wild seed named Shen Leng standing there in a prince's robe and smiling proudly at him.
"You all get down on my knees."
The prince suddenly shouted.
The people of the descendants were startled and all knelt down.
"The forbidden palace is noisy and lawless."
The prince rebuked angrily: "Punish all of you for a month after you go back!" ”
Those people nodded hurriedly, and the prince looked at Wei Lan: "I have already disposed of them, I will go and tell my father." ”
Wei Lan didn't leave: "Your Majesty explained, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punishes them to go home and be grounded, Your Majesty will not allow it." ”
The prince's face changed suddenly.
Wei Lan raised his finger and pointed at those people: "By Your Majesty's order, take them all down and take them outside Chengtianmen, and kneel facing Chengtianmen Street, each with a slap of their mouths for thirty ........"
Wei Lan looked at the prince: "Your Majesty also said, didn't they want to cry?" Then keep crying, you must cry, kneel outside the Chengtian Gate and cry, and don't stop. ”
The crown prince looked at Wei Lan in a daze: "Is this really what my father said?" ”
Wei Lan leaned over: "The minister doesn't dare to falsely pass on the holy decree." ”
After finishing speaking, Wei Lan stood up straight: "Take it all!" ”
The wolf-like guards swarmed up, and those frightened descendants were directly escorted out of Weiyang Palace, the front of Weiyang Palace is Chengtianmen, outside Chengtianmen is the central axis of Chang'an City, and it is also the widest road Chengtianmen Street, it is almost the New Year, and the people of the Houzu are escorted and kneeling in that row, which shows how angry His Majesty moved.
In fact, His Majesty still has a sentence that Wei Lan didn't say...... Your Majesty said that you don't want to lose face, then I will let them go to a crowded place to lose face.
Wei Lan walked in front of those people, reached out and took an iron plate from the guard, about a foot long and less than two inches wide, and there were some cumbersome patterns carved on it, I don't know what it was, and I could vaguely see the blood stains that couldn't be washed away in the gaps in the patterns.
"Offended."
Wei Lan said lightly, then raised his hand and slammed it on the face of the person who was in the first place, only one half of the person's face was beaten red and red, the second time it broke the skin, and the third time it was half of the face bloody.
Smack, smack, smack......
Thirty slaps per person.
The iron plate was splashed with blood, and the wails came and went.
Inside the gate of Chengtianmen, the prince looked at those people who were beaten and clenched his fists, and then turned around and walked towards the Baoji Palace, his eyes were full of hatred and ruthlessness, and after bypassing the Taiji Hall of the main hall of the previous dynasty, he went to the back of the Baoji Palace, and stepped up the steps, and when he walked to the door of the Baoji Palace, he suddenly knelt down with a thud, and his head was on the ground: "Father, the son knows that he is wrong." ”
For a long time, no sound came out of the East Warm Pavilion.
The prince just knelt there, his eyes staring at the ground, his eyes flickering.
It was enough for half an hour before the boat came out of the Dongnuan Pavilion, leaned over and said to the prince: "Your Highness, Your Majesty said that you know, the prince please go back." ”
The crown prince raised his head: "Father, don't see me?" ”
"Your Majesty is tired."
Dai Fangzhou bowed his head: "The prince can come back tomorrow." ”
The prince rubbed his knees and stood up, and looked back at the palace gate, where the wailing could really be heard, although faint, but it was heartbreaking.
"I see."
The prince turned around and walked step by step, his face constantly changing.
Outside the Chengtian Gate, Wei Lan's hands were trembling slightly after the fight, everyone was thirty times, it was really hard work, this time it was good, if the people of the Hou clan did not come to Weiyang Palace to cry, it would be a person named Yang Xinnian who had a broken face on his face, and now this group of people were beaten and broken, His Majesty said, the face is not blooming and bleeding, and it is not allowed to stop after thirty strokes, since you don't want to give face, then don't ask for face.
"I'm sorry for you."
Wei Lan pressed her body slightly: "You can cry, keep crying." ”
