Chapter 56: Emperor Cheng pardons Wang Shang
58 After reading books and Chen Tang was imprisoned, Emperor Cheng looked at the newspapers in various places in the Weiyang Palace.
He said sonorously: "Zhang Fang, officials everywhere are grass on the wall!" Once upon a time, when Prince Xia was in power, he was in the city. Now he's in prison. Officials from all over the country have come up to impeach him! It's really a wall that everyone pushes, and the trees fall and scatter! β
"Your Majesty, you must not be appeased to the anti-thief prince Xia! He relied on the majesty of the queen mother and was arrogant. The Grand Sima Mansion is even more magnificent than His Majesty's Imperial Palace. If you don't get rid of such traitors, Your Majesty, are you still the true son of the dragon? β
Zhang Fang's flattering look made Emperor Cheng quite appreciative.
"Zhang Fang, I really want to wipe out my fourth uncle, Prince Xia, the three clans. However, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will not agree! Moreover, the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Wang family are all over the government and the opposition. If his three clans are destroyed, it will implicate the light. I'm afraid it will endanger our Han society! β
Zhang Fang looked at Emperor Cheng's sad and tangled expression, and thought: If the villain says a wrong word, he may be killed by the relatives of the Wang family!
"Your Majesty. The minister thought that Wang Zixia was just confused for a while! Just depose him as a concubine. He can't kill his nine clans. Otherwise, people in the world will say that His Majesty's six relatives don't recognize it! If you surprise the Queen Mother again. Then Your Majesty will not be able to be a filial son! β
Zhang Fang's words frightened Emperor Cheng into a daze.
Emperor Cheng smiled, suddenly turned red, and said, "Zhang Fang, you are still the most intimate baby!" β
"Your Majesty, this is what a minister should do!"
Zhang Xinlile bloomed, and his mouth was as sweet as honey.
Let's talk about Wang Shang in prison!
He was still in prison eating lobster and nibbling on abalone.
He saw a strong man, and the figure was very familiar.
He thought to himself, "Who is this?" The steps are sonorous and powerful, and the skin is dark. Why is it a general?
The strong man was escorted to Wang Shang by the jailer.
Wang Yi looked at it: Oh. Isn't this General Chen Tang?
The jailer opened the lock of the cell, pushed Chen Tang in, and said viciously, "Chen Tang, you will be locked up with Wang Shang in the future." β
Then, with a loud bang, the door of the cell slammed shut, and the jailer slammed the lock back on.
Chen Tang scolded: "Isn't it just a jailer? Dogs fight people. Wait for General Ben to go out. I'm sure I'll cut you with a thousand cuts! How dare you do this to General Ben! β
His expression was distorted, like that of an angry lion.
Chen Tang's beard was curled up with his anger.
"General Chen, why did you come in too? You've committed a crime too? β
Chen Tang turned around and saw that it was Wang Zixia!
"I didn't do anything either. That is, embezzling a little bit of military salary! Your Majesty has always disliked me. That's why it's a big fuss! β
"Hahaha. Don't lie to the old man! The old man knows that your level of corruption is the first in the military circle of our Han Dynasty! β
"Really? Didn't you? The mansion of Lord Sima is simply Saiweiyang Palace. The princes and kings are polite when they see you. β
"Where, where? General Chen, even the kings of the Western Regions have to kneel and bow to you! You are simply the king of the Western Regions of our Han Dynasty! β
Chen Tang listened to Wang Shang's sarcasm, became furious, and shouted: "No matter how greedy I am, I bend the law. Not a tenth of your royal relatives. Your relatives of the Wang family have always despised the "Han Law". β
Wang Shang was speechless by Chen Tang.
After Wang Shang was imprisoned, the Empress Dowager quickly found Emperor Cheng.
The candlelight in Weiyang Palace was dim, Emperor Cheng's face was haggard, and the dark circles under his eyes were as heavy as those of a panda.
The queen mother's old face immediately pulled down, and she said with a blue face: "Isn't it possible for my son to kill all your uncles?" β
"Why not? The uncles of the sons are all moths of our Han Dynasty! With them one day, our big man will become their best breeding ground. Where is the Han Dynasty still the world of the Liu family, the whole is already the world of the Wang family! β
Emperor Cheng's appearance was as if he wanted to dictate the dynasty.
"If Your Majesty is really so ruthless and unjust. Then, please put the mourning family to death first! The Queen Mother's demeanor is full of fortitude, and there is a kind of "if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent"!
"Queen Mother, don't do this! I don't want to kill the Wang family! But they've gone too far! The people of the world only know that there are relatives of the Wang family, but they don't know about my existence. With such a family, can I still let him exist? β
Emperor Cheng's eyes were red and swollen, and then his tears flowed out.
"Your Majesty, if you kill all our relatives of the Wang family. Your country will no longer exist. Your Majesty, you have no heirs. The Empress Dowager Fu of the Dingtao Kingdom, the Empress Dowager Feng of the Zhongshan Kingdom, and the princes and kings of Chu and Zhao, none of them are eyeing your throne. They may rebel tomorrow. Whoever will defend you against their thousands of troops is your uncles! Now, your greatest, second, and third uncles have all passed away. Only the fourth uncle Wang Shang and the fifth uncle Wang Gen can help you. If you kill them. You won't be able to keep your country! β
Emperor Cheng was frightened by the empress dowager's earnest words, and hurriedly said: "The queen mother is right! Erchen immediately pardoned the fourth uncle! Immediately canonize the fifth uncle as the Great Sima! β
"But your fourth uncle is guilty after all, and it is still necessary to depose him as a concubine!"
Emperor Cheng saw that his mother's demeanor had become much calmer, smiled, and said slowly: "Zhang Fang, immediately draft the decree: the great Sima Prince Xia will rebel because of his insanity." Now he has been dismissed from his official position and abolished as a concubine! β
Zhang farted and ran over and wrote the holy decree.
The next day, the decree reached the prison.
Wang Shang immediately kowtowed three times, and his scalp was bleeding.
Chen Tang cried: "Has Your Majesty pardoned me?" β
"No, General Chen, you just stay honest!"
Zhang Fang's cold words made Chen Tang completely desperate, and he thought to himself: What should I do? Your Majesty won't let me die of old age here, will you?
Wang Shang swaggered out.
After returning to the palace, the Great Sima Wanggen was already there to greet him.
Wang Gen saw that Wang Shang was unkempt and dirty, and said sadly: "Fourth brother, you have suffered! β
"Thank you Fifth Brother for trying your best to save me."
Seeing Wang Shang's big gift, Wang Gen explained: "Fourth brother, don't thank me. You'd better go and thank the Queen Mother. It is she who argues with reason in front of His Majesty to pardon you! β
"Really? It seems that I want to thank the Queen Mother! β
At the same time, Liu Yao of Zhao State heard that Wang Mang had been assassinated and cried for three days and three nights. In the days that followed, she was always in tears.
Liu Yang walked in and saw that his sister Liu Yao was already in a trance. He said, "Sister, you still have to pick yourself up again!" β
Liu Yao's expression became stern, and he roared: "Unless Wang Mang comes back to life!" β
So, what other amazing thing will Liu Yao do? 58 Read
