Chapter 383: Kill one and make an example

"Nonsense, I have the will of the Queen Mother, do you dare to stop it, hurry up and get out of the way of the old man."

When Qianhu saw it, he knew that he couldn't stop Feng Bao by himself, but where his duty was, he had to say: "Gonggong Feng, if you always want to go in, we don't dare to stop you, but in the future, Long Live Lord will blame it, and you will always take care of me." ”

"You don't care about this matter, when the Lord asks about it, the old man will naturally explain to the Lord of the Long Live that you are optimistic about the 'door'."

Qianhu asked the soldiers who were blocking the 'gate' of the uncle's mansion to make way for a passage and let Feng Bao go to the big 'gate'. Now Uncle Guo's mansion, the big 'gate' is closed, and there is also a gloomy cloud inside, Uncle Li is also anxious now, but several times he wanted to send someone out to find Gao Gong, but the soldiers who watched the 'door' blocked back.

Until there was a knock on the 'door' outside the 'door', the housekeeper hurriedly came over to report: "Uncle Guo, someone knocked on the 'door' outside, do you see if it is open or not." ”

"It's over, it's over, it must be the emperor's holy decree coming, alas, I didn't expect that I also have today, but I don't know if the Queen Mother can beg me for mercy and spare my life."

"Uncle Guo, the Queen Mother is just a brother of yours, she won't care, now that someone is coming from outside, shouldn't we go to greet you."

"Okay, let's go open the 'door' and see what the emperor does with me when he comes to the holy decree, whether it's a blessing or a curse or a curse that can't be avoided, it should come sooner or later."

The two of them took their families to the big 'gate', and the family went up to open the big 'gate', and saw that it was Feng Bao by the light of the lantern, and Uncle Li suddenly rushed up and grabbed Feng Bao's hand as if he had seen a life-saving straw: "Father-in-law Feng, you are here, did the Queen Mother send you to save me." ”

Seeing Uncle Li Guo who was out of shape, Feng Bao said: "Uncle Guo, shouldn't you invite me to go in and sit." ”

Uncle Li Guo knew that he had lost his temper at this time, and hurriedly said: "Feng Gongmi, please, housekeeper, go and brew the good tea that the Queen Mother appreciated for Feng Gonggong." ”

Accompanied Feng Bao to the living room, Uncle Guo sent all the family out, and said: "Father-in-law Feng asked you to come here from the Queen Mother, I don't know what's wrong today, I was sealed by the Shence Army here, I'm still in a hurry, I thought the emperor sent someone to arrest me." ”

"Uncle Guo, what did you do to make Long Live Lord so angry, and Xingshi mobilized everyone to seal the house for you."

"I don't know about this, even if it's for the sake of the restaurant, I won't provoke such a big liver fire as Long Live Lord."

"One more thing I ask you, I sent you a letter from the Queen Mother, have you seen it?"

"I saw it, but it was just ......."

"It's just what, didn't Uncle Guo do what the Queen Mother wanted."

"Gonggong Feng, at this point, I'll tell the truth, I'll go find Gao Gong, and Gao Gong promised me to deal with me. Besides, what Lan Yunjie said the Queen Mother said, I don't know him, his official position is low, and he may not be able to do it for me, so I pinned my hopes on Gao Gong, I didn't expect it to be like this. ”

"You are just smart, you don't listen to the Queen Mother's words, now the emperor is angry, and he doesn't know how to deal with you, why don't you listen to the Queen Mother's words, for your sake, I also found Master Zhang in a special 'door', people are still waiting for you to go, you are good, what to do now, you say it yourself."

Feng Bao was furious, he was angry and hated for this pig-brained uncle, but after all, he was the queen mother's brother, and he was the queen mother's person, so even if he was angry, he had to take care of it.

Seeing Feng Bao angry, Uncle Li also knew that he had done a stupid thing, 'spent' the money and delayed his efforts, and now he has pushed himself to the brink of extinction, Uncle Li Guo now hates Gao Gong to death, but this matter can't be said clearly.

"Gonggong Feng, you can save me, for the sake of the Queen Mother's face, you must save me." Uncle Li knelt down directly in front of Feng Bao, crying and pleading.

"Get up, since things have come to this point, I'll go back and ask the Queen Mother first, the Queen Mother can't ignore it, but you have a good attitude first, hurry up and make a fold tomorrow and let someone hand it to you to ask for guilt, I don't think you want it on the first floor, give it to the emperor, as long as you can avoid it this time, it's better to be more restrained in the future."

This first floor is the lifeblood of Uncle Li Guo, now Feng Bao asked him to let him out, he will be willing, and asked curtly: "Is there any other way for Gonggong Feng to atone for his sins, you also know that the first floor is my lifeline, can you let the emperor fine me with silver and keep the first floor for me." ”

Uncle Li Guo is very good at settling accounts, even if the emperor fines the silver, as long as there is the first floor in his hands, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year is not very simple, if the first floor is taken away, he really has no other income, relying on that salary and silver, it is not enough to pay the family monthly silver.

"You are still thinking about the first floor, now it is a matter of saving your life, looking at the emperor's actions this time, he must have mastered other evidence of your crimes, as for what other shady deeds you have, I won't ask, you can count it yourself, hurry up and write an excerpt to ask for guilt, let the first floor out, maybe you can still be blessed with half a lifetime of glory and wealth, or it's really hard to say, what will the emperor do with you."

"Okay, then I'll write it, Gonggong Feng, you have to give me a few more kind words in front of the Queen Mother when you go back to the palace, I really didn't expect Gao Gong to cheat me so much this time, and I won't dare next time."

After sending Feng Bao away, Uncle Li Guo angrily scolded in the living room, all of which were scolding Gao Gong.

Gao Gong returned to the palace and wrote a letter, wrote out the words of Uncle Guo, and asked the little eunuch to send it to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother did not sleep.

The next day, early in the morning, Uncle Li's plea was sent to the emperor's Qianqing Palace. After the emperor looked at the excerpt, he asked Chen Jiu beside him: "Chen Jiu, look at how Uncle Li dealt with it, he handed over the excerpt early this morning, and he had to dedicate the first floor to the imperial court." ”

"Your Majesty, it seems that this Uncle Li also knows his mistakes, the first floor is his lifeline, and now he is willing to take it out, it seems that he is really scared, the emperor, according to the slave, let's let him go, after all, he is the younger brother of the queen mother, if he does too much, the queen mother will not be able to get by." I saw that the emperor called him in to reprimand him, and then showed him the interrogation record, and fined him some money. ”

"Okay, it's just that dying grudge, if you don't deal with Uncle Guo, if this matter gets out, I'm afraid it will be bad for the court."

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured, the slave has tightly sealed the news, the death of the deputy general, we will take care of his family, people can't be resurrected after death, and it can only be like this, those who should be killed will be extinguished, and the crime of announcing the uncle outside will be handled according to the charge of poor management of the restaurant and killing people, and you can also kill the 'chicken' to show the monkey, so that those imperial relatives and relatives will not dare to publicize it in the future."

"Yes, you will immediately pass on the decree to announce that Uncle Li Guo will come to see me, and then go to Cining Palace to invite the Queen Mother."

Here, Chen Jiu sent someone to his uncle to deliver the decree, and found someone to go to Cining Palace to invite the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother came quickly, and when the Queen Mother came, Mu Zong told the Queen Mother about the results, and the Queen Mother was also very satisfied, her brother had done such a big case, it would be good for the emperor to spare his life, and that bit of silver was nothing, as long as the head was there, money was a trivial matter.

The emperor saw that the Queen Mother didn't say anything, knowing that the Queen Mother had recognized this result, and he was also very satisfied, that is, he taught Uncle Li a lesson, gave the Queen Mother a lot of face, and earned a lot of silver. It's a triple win.

Emperor Muzong, who was in a good mood, chatted with the Queen Mother for a while, and when Uncle Li Guo came, the emperor asked Chen Jiu to bring out all the eunuchs and palace 'women', and the huge Qianqing Palace was left, Chen Jiu, Uncle Li Guo, and the Queen Mother and the four of them.

First, the Queen Mother spoke: "Li Toyota, are you guilty?" ”

"Empress Dowager Qi, Weichen is guilty." Don't look at it as a brother and sister, now it's also a difference between monarchs and ministers, Uncle Li Guo knelt down for her sister and said.

"Well, since you are guilty, tell me what your sin is." Now Mu Zong doesn't speak, just let the queen mother say how to punish him, and the emperor doesn't want to offend this uncle.

"Empress Dowager Qiyu, Weichen mismanaged, so that there was a life lawsuit in my restaurant, and Weichen was willing to 'hand' the first floor to the court to atone for his sins." Uncle Li didn't know that the matter of his killing of the deputy general had already been known by the emperor and the queen mother, but he just thought it was a matter of the restaurant, and said it lightly.

"yes, that's all, look at this." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she took the interrogation record that Chen Jiu brought and threw it on Uncle Li's face.

Uncle Li picked up the interrogation record, and the sweat on his face came down as soon as he read a page, and after reading it, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously to beg for mercy.

"I called you here today to warn you, don't be too arrogant in the future, who gave you your glory and wealth, it is the imperial court, if there is no imperial court, what are you, you are not small, you are not small, you actually killed the deputy general stationed at the border pass, this is to overthrow the country of my Ming Dynasty. Today, the emperor spared you not to die, but it is also for the sake of the old body's face, but the family has family rules and national laws, and it is still necessary to punish you, and in the future, remember to be a man with your tail between your legs, our Li family cannot be defeated in your hands, and next time, I will not recognize you as a brother. ”

The Queen Mother's words are very heavy, this is also a statement in front of the emperor, the emperor is not her own son, and now seeing that his face has bypassed her brother's capital crime, she can't help but express it.

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, Mu Zong said: "Get up, I will remember it in the future, you royal relatives, don't be too arrogant, but also restrain your family, and do anything else, don't complain about you." Go back and wait for the will. ”

Mu Zong is very smart, the will of punishment, he wants the queen mother to say that he has dealt with it heavily, the queen mother is unwilling, and if it is light, it cannot play a role in killing a hundred people, so that the queen mother can not be light, and always has to give the emperor a face.
