When the day was about to be clear, there were many sedan chairs parked outside the palace, all of which were courtiers who came to the early dynasty.
The palace is also solemn, and it is not yet time to open the dynasty, they are all familiar with each other, saying some kind words, and they don't mention anything else.
Xiao Han stood on the side, with a cold face, and did not step forward to talk to Xiao Han, but just called politely from afar.
However, the prince was surrounded by many ministers, and they talked happily, all with smiles on their faces.
Xiao Han knew why the prince was in such a happy mood, mainly because this corruption case involved the five princes, and the household servants could be under the direct jurisdiction of the five princes.
The prince raised his eyes, glanced at Xiao Han's arrogant expression, and hastily withdrew it, and he couldn't see the look on his face.
This casual situation lasted for a while, and when there was still a pillar of incense before the last dynasty, everyone seemed to have discussed it, and they each stood in their own positions, waiting in unison.
Sure enough, as soon as the time for a pillar of incense arrived, there were internal supervisors who sang and sang before and after, "Go to court!" “
Everyone bowed and knelt on the ground in unison, waiting for the emperor.
The emperor was dressed in a bright yellow court robe with a yellow crown and hat on his head, and sat on the dragon chair with his legs raised, "Flat." “
The emperor said lightly, and his majesty was still the same, but his expression was a little tired, which obviously made people feel unhappy.
"Do you have a performance?" The emperor swept lightly in everyone's faces, but the eyes on his face were slightly squinted.
Today's court is mainly talking about things, everyone also knows it, and the emperor is saying this at this moment, just hoping that someone will mention a sign first.
"Your Majesty, the ministers have something to do." Li Yan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, spoke sonorously and forcefully, "It's about the epidemic in Xuan'an City." “
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions on the scene froze, and they listened to Li Yan's remarks with bated breath.
The emperor was still expressionless, but he nodded, "Quasi-play." “
Today, everything will be closed.
As soon as Li Yan heard the emperor's recital, he took a deep breath and spoke steadily: "The source of this epidemic is not in Xuan'an City, but in the capital. “
Although the epidemic is still solved, many of the people involved in it also have to be pulled out again.
"First, the household servants and their officials did everything they could to loot property, and then the Taishou of all parties demanded these handed over goods from those ordinary people." Li Yan paused, "Because of this reason, hundreds of people have been killed and injured, and it is also the occurrence of this epidemic." “
"Then according to Aiqing's meaning, how should the household servant and his subordinates be handled?" The emperor looked at Li Yan, and his expression was much calmer.
"The household servant is deeply guilty, and it is not a pity to die." Li Yan's voice was also extremely clear above this court.
Not to mention that this matter has a great impact, the guilt of the Hubu Shangshu is indeed not a pity to die.
"The minister seconded the proposal!" A speaker came forward to second.
"The minister seconded the ......"
For a while, it was all the voices of civil and military officials, and Xiao Han listened to these people seconding the proposal, but he was unmoved.
Now it's just the soldiers who have been brought up, and the real big fish hasn't been said yet, and this is the main thing.
"The minister has his own music." An Guogong stood up with a heavy face, "It is indeed a pity to have such a courtier above the court, but this involves not only one household servant, but the breadth of the number of people involved is really amazing, and even the five princes are deeply involved." “
An Guogong's voice was calm and powerful, and it was also extremely shocking to listen to everyone's ears.
An Guogong dared to involve the five princes, which is so bold.
The deathly silence, although time only passed in an instant, overwhelmed everyone.
The emperor didn't say a word, as if he hadn't heard.
An official behind Duke An Guo stood up and knelt straight on the ground, "Your Majesty, the five princes are indeed implicated, but there is a crime of lax responsibility. “
This person is a close confidant of An Guogong, which is extremely interesting.
Between the two of them singing and harmonizing, they even tampered with the charge of embezzlement of huge sums of money by the five princes to the lax nature of the royal family.
It's a good sloppy eye.
Xiao Han lowered his eyes on the side, listening to these people talking, he felt extremely interesting.
"Father." The prince saw that this situation was reversed by An Guogong in a few words, and he was also very unwilling.
"The consequences of this epidemic caused by corruption are really serious, and the head of the household is a subordinate of the fifth brother, if the cause is not investigated, I am afraid that things like this will still happen." The prince lowered his eyes and said this very thoroughly.
Duke An Guo listened to the prince's words word by word, and simply didn't say a word, just waiting for the emperor to speak.
Today's early dynasty, it was not what they said, but how the emperor wanted to deal with it.
Emperor Xiao Jingyan has also listened to this conversation for a long time, but he still looks calm and relaxed, and he can't see any look.
The hall was quiet for a long time, and then the emperor slowly spoke: "Dali Temple has found out the truth of the matter, and the household servant and his subordinates are corrupt, and the death penalty is inevitable." The Five Princes are not strict, and I will not forgive him. “
Your Majesty is not strict?
Everyone didn't dare to speak with their breath, and the head of the household servant has always been the head of the five princes, and the discerning person saw that this matter was inseparable from the five princes, but the emperor's meaning was subtle.
The emperor doesn't want to implicate the five princes!
The courtiers immediately had this thought in their hearts.
"Prince." The emperor put his eyes on the crown prince, and the overwhelming pressure immediately overwhelmed the prince, "Before you return, you have to sort out the reasons for it, and you must not wronged people like today." “
These words are fluttering, but they only feel very heavy in the ears of everyone.
An Guogong glanced at the deflated prince, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.
The five princes have always been favored, how could they cease to exist overnight.
"Your Majesty." An Guogong's acquaintance said a word and returned to his original position.
The overall situation has been decided, and many things do not need to be said too much.
Xiao Han didn't say a word from beginning to end, but just listened to the confrontation between the prince and the five princes, and he felt a sense of proportion in his heart.
The emperor also received all the expressions of many people in the upper position, and finally put his look on Xiao Han's body, and his eyes were a little more relieved.
"Today's sin has been decided, and the next step is to talk about the merits." When these words came out, the emperor's eyes were a little more smiling, "King Jin's disaster relief this time has been handled properly in the face of the epidemic, which is really gratifying to me." “
"Father, this is the duty of the son." Xiao Han took a step forward and spoke very well.
When the emperor heard this, he was also very pleased.
"Originally, you just returned to Beijing, and your father meant to let you cultivate more, which made you idle for many days." The emperor paused, "It seems that this time, you can't be idle, you have wasted your ability in vain, the guards of the capital are too loose at the moment, you have to be careful." “
Defenders?
Xiao Han's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately had a consideration, "My father has a life, and my sons should do their best." “
"Hahahaha......" The emperor was really satisfied when he heard Xiao Han say this.
In these three words, this matter is settled, and no one can come out to oppose it.
The people of the five princes and the crown prince also have considerations now, and the king of Jin has not had real power since he entered Beijing, and now he has taken over the defense army, which is naturally different from the past.
"Alright, let's get here for today." The emperor has dealt with so many things, and he is really a little tired.
When the eunuch on one side saw the emperor speak, he knew that the dynasty was dispersed, so he stepped forward and sang a harmony, "Retreat from the dynasty." “
All the civil and military officials knelt down to pay respects, "Congratulations to the emperor." “
It was really thrilling to open this morning today, Xiao Han just waited to get up, and ignored everything else, just walked outside the main hall, and was called by someone as soon as he walked a step.
"Ninth brother, stay here." This is the voice of the crown prince.
The prince just waited to get up, and when he saw that Xiao Han was leaving, he quickly stopped him.
Xiao Han turned his head, his face did not change in the slightest, but he saluted the prince slightly.
When the prince saw Xiao Han's appearance, he was naturally vain, "My own brother, I can't be so polite." “
"It's not just the prince who has something to discuss with his younger brother?" There is no official decree today, and the prince is a little anxious.
The prince looked at Xiao Han's stereotypical appearance, which was really a little boring, but he still endured to finish his words, "What my father means today, those corrupt things are all done by the household servants." “
This matter is obviously his father's intention to forgive the five princes, otherwise he doesn't believe that the five princes will not be involved.
There must be evidence in it, others don't know, King Jin must know something.
"The younger brother only thinks that since my father said this, it is naturally the truth." Xiao Han lowered his eyes, unable to see a trace of expression, and his words were all perfunctory.
The prince naturally understood what he meant, and his expression was a little displeased, but it was not easy to attack, so he could only leave with his sleeves brushed up.
Xiao Han is too ignorant!
Xiao Han raised his head and looked at the back of the prince leaving, but he didn't care.
Today's father's meaning is very clear, the five princes can't move, and the prince is really a little anxious.
The father didn't want anyone to touch the five princes, so naturally he couldn't move, and if he found some evidence, it would be useless, not only would it not play any role, but he might also anger his father.
Naturally, if the prince wanted to investigate, he would definitely send those evidences to the prince.
Xiao Han raised his head and looked at the vast city wall, the sky was blue, it was really a good weather.
Xiao Han came back to the Jin Palace, and the will arrived in the afternoon.
In addition to the rewards of various treasures, he also gave Xiao Han half of the talisman for mobilizing the guards, and the meaning could not be clearer.
All of a sudden, all the dignitaries and nobles in the capital knew that the current King of Jin could no longer be compared with when he first entered Beijing.
A prince who has the right to mobilize the defense army, this momentum is only under the crown prince and the five princes.
In the study room of the Jin Palace, Xiao Han's face was also different from the usual coldness, and it was a little more pleasant than usual.
Gu Yuanzheng was opposite Xiao Han, and the two did not play chess today, but drank tea.
There is still a hint of Zen incense lingering in the study, which is very elegant.
Gu Yuanzheng took a sip, and the eyebrows in the fox's eyes were full of joy, "Lord Wang, although the fifth prince was only grounded and punished, his subordinates have lost a lot of people. “
