Chapter 767: Falling Out of Favor
Tang Ning stood stunned, he didn't expect that the emperor of a country would be so shameless.
It doesn't matter which foot he takes when he enters the hall, the important thing is that if Emperor Chen wants to hit his board, he will definitely find a reason, he will be dodged by him today, and tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, day after day, endlessly.
is not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves, Tang Ning hopes to expose this matter happily.
He raised his head and said: "Your Majesty handed over such a difficult task to the minister, and the minister did have complaints in his heart, as a courtier, he actually complained about His Majesty, and the minister was willing to receive thirty boards, and asked His Majesty to fulfill it." ”
Emperor Chen glanced at him and said, "Since you have asked for punishment, I will fulfill you, Wei Jian, take him down to receive the punishment." ”
"Yes." Wei Jian walked down, looked at Tang Ning, and said with a smile: "Lord Tang, let's go out." ”
Tang Ning followed him out of the imperial study, Wei Jian looked at him, and said softly: "Don't worry, Lord Tang, I will let them take it lightly." ”
Playing the board is a technical job, and after thirty boards, it is possible to go from nothing, to minor skin trauma, to breaking a leg and killing someone.
Downing lay on the bench, nibbling on an apple while hitting the board.
The two guards held the plank high and landed on the cushion on his buttocks, silently, without any movement.
After thirty boards, Tang Ning patted his ass and stood up, arched his hand to Wei Jian, and said, "Thank you." ”
Wei Jian smiled and said, "Your Majesty is also angry in your heart, it's good that this breath comes out, Lord Tang doesn't have to mind." ”
Tang Ning really didn't mind, after all, he was Emperor Chen, and a certain little bastard would have been crippled a long time ago, and he could understand this mood.
Wei Jian looked at the two people playing the board and said, "You two, go back to Lord Tang." ”
Tang Ning didn't refuse, although he didn't feel it at all with thirty boards, but he still had to put on his face.
In the short distance from the imperial study to the palace gate, Tang Ning walked for a long time and met many people.
Under one person, above 10,000 people, the powerful Dingguo Marquis, limped out of the palace by two guards, and the palace maids and eunuchs he met along the way were all stunned.
"Dingguohou, what's wrong?"
"It's been beaten, I just passed by over there and saw it with my own eyes!"
"Didn't he say that he had just solved a problem for His Majesty?"
"Who knows, it may be where His Majesty is dissatisfied again......"
……
The information in the palace spread very quickly, and several major yamen such as Hanlin Academy, Shangshu Province, etc., were in the palace, and what happened in the palace today spread all over the upper circles of Beijing, or in half a day, the entire Beijing division would be known to everyone.
The matter of the allocation of quotas, which had plagued the imperial court for a long time, was resolved in today's early court.
The Marquis of Dingguo proposed a method to reduce the number of people raised in Jiangnan and Gyeonggi and subsidize the rest of the provinces, but no one in the Manchu Dynasty refuted it and easily passed.
Although this move will offend many people, it will be appreciated by many more.
Offending Jingshi and Jiangnan at the same time, changing to someone else, I have long been worried about the night, but how many people have been offended by the Marquis of Dingguo, and now, the official position is still high?
In Jingshi, there are only people who dare not offend him, and there are no people who he does not dare to offend.
However, the next development of events greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
originally thought that he had solved this problem for the imperial court, and for His Majesty to get rid of this trouble, he would definitely be rewarded by His Majesty, but no one thought that there was no reward and reward, but many people saw him being beaten by His Majesty and supported out of the palace by the guards.
For a time, rumors against Tang Ning, the Marquis of Dingguo, spread and evolved into countless versions.
Some people say that His Majesty is not satisfied with his proposal, and this is his punishment.
Some people say that he leans towards the government and the opposition, which has aroused His Majesty's vigilance, and this is a knock on him.
Many people are more inclined to the latter possibility, when His Majesty handed over this hot potato to Tang Ning, it had already aroused their suspicions, and anyone could see that this matter was thankless no matter how it was done, how could His Majesty give it to a favored minister?
Now that he has done things beautifully, he has been punished, which has strengthened their minds even more.
Tang Ning, who has won the favor of the saint, is finally about to fall out of favor......
……
"Are you okay......" Xiao Jue hurriedly walked into Tang's house, and saw Tang Ning sitting in front of the copper pot to wash meat, he sat firmly on the stool, there was no outside rumors at all, and he looked like he was seriously injured.
Xiao Jue took the chopsticks by himself, adjusted the dipping sauce himself, soaked a thin piece of cow brain, and asked, "The rumors outside are false?" ”
Tang Ning moved his buttocks, gave him a little position, and said, "Didn't you see that?" ”
Xiao Jue was surprised: "But why did Your Majesty hit your board?" ”
The rumor that Tang Ning was seriously injured is false, but the matter of hitting the board, but many people have seen it, and it cannot be a rumor.
Tang Ning waved his hand, didn't want to mention it again, and said, "Shabu your meat." ”
"As long as you don't fall out of favor." Xiao Jue waved his hand and said, "Otherwise, there are many people in Jingshi, and I am afraid that they are about to move." ”
……
The news of Tang Ning's fall from grace spread throughout the capital within a day.
As the most powerful courtier in the court today, anything that happens to him will attract everyone's attention.
In response to this matter, the people's speculation is very loud, and Tang Ning's fall from grace has almost become a tacit fact.
And he has countless enemies in the capital, and there is no doubt that those people will never let go of this opportunity to fall into the ground.
Not to mention anything else, just King Kang and King Duan, who suffered big losses under him, are the two mountains that he cannot overcome after he fell out of favor.
King Kang's Mansion.
King Kang twisted his chin and muttered, "Hit that person's board, what kind of medicine is sold in the emperor's gourd?" ”
A subordinate beside him stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, Tang Ning is in trouble, this is a rare opportunity, should we avenge the revenge of the day......
"There's no need." King Kang waved his hand and said, "Let Zhao Ming jump out to test the temptation first, Tang Ning is still of great use to his father, this king doesn't believe that he will fall out of favor so quickly......"
The man was stunned and asked, "Will King Duan jump out?" ”
King Kang tugged at the corners of his mouth and said disdainfully: "Who would, he would?" ”
Duanwangfu.
"Downing was beaten?" Duanwang's face was full of surprise and asked, "When did it happen, is it true?" ”
"Just today." A subordinate said: "This is the news from Concubine Hui from the palace, and the Jingshi has also spread it all over the city, so there will definitely be no fake." ”
King Duan's face was overjoyed and asked, "In other words, Tang Ning has fallen out of favor?" ”
The man said, "That's what everyone else says. ”
King Duan couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha, I didn't expect him to have today, this king and his accounts in the past should also be settled!" ”
Last time, King Duan jumped out and was put on a scene by King Huai, almost causing a catastrophe, and the next person showed hesitation and said: "Your Highness, the two Tang adults said that it is better to be still than to be still, let us not act rashly, what happened last time was ......"
"Things were different last time and not this time!" King Duan waved his hand and sneered: "Father is not facing him, this time, this king wants to see who else can keep him!" ”
