Chapter 324: The Law of the State is Above Everything (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Ergong Huai deliberately pretended to be shouting loudly, but he annoyed Chen Huangxin next to him

Queen Chen didn't know that Chen Hong was a dark chess piece ambushed by Sun Dan's side by Huang Jin's side, she was already hot-tempered, and she slapped Chen Hong hard when she stepped forward, and scolded: "You are a tasteless little eunuch, in front of Your Majesty and in front of Mr. Sun, there is also room for you to interject, I won't punish you heavily today, and I really think that the palace is a place where cats and dogs come out to bark." Come on, pull him down and beat him with fifty sticks. ”

As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog. Empress Chen wanted to punish Chen Hong, but Huang Jin was not happy. Seeing Sun Dan being scolded by Chen Hong, Huang Jin was also very happy, and said in his heart: "Okay, you Sun Dan, now you are also suffocating." This Chen Hong is worthy of being a good son trained by my Huang Jin, and he can really be angry for our family at a critical moment, so good, this son is so bold!

Huang Jin hurriedly said: "Niangniang, although Chen Hong doesn't understand the rules in this matter, his words are reasonable. That's right. ”

Empress Chen hated Huang Jin to the bone and was about to sprinkle it again. But when she saw Sun Dan frowning slightly, she held back the anger in her heart. Because when she listened to Sun Dan's lecture just now, she said that a man's favorite is the kind of woman who is as gentle as water, and the stronger the man, the more so. The reason why the emperor used to dislike herself had a lot to do with her irascible personality.

Thinking of this, Queen Chen regretted jumping out and slapping Chen Hong just now.

Sure enough, seeing a few people arguing below, a trace of unhappiness flashed in the emperor's eyes, and everyone below looked at him for a while

Doesn't feel right. All of them stopped talking at the same time. The atmosphere in the main hall began to condense.

"Why don't you speak?" Jiajing's voice seemed to come from far away: "There are different opinions. There was a lot of talking. It seems that this palace has always been so lively! Sun Dan, don't you have something to say, you can say it. Listen. ”

Huang Jin asked at the right time: "Sun Dan, you just said that Lu Fang's sin will not lead to death, tell me your truth, haven't you always been able to speak the Tao and make up a lot of crooked truths?" Human life is more important than Mount Tai, let alone a prince. ”

Sun Dan was not nervous, at least on the surface. He thought for a while before replying: "Gonggong Huang is wrong, Concubine Zhang is only three months pregnant, and the child in her belly doesn't know whether it is a man or a woman. Second, according to the folk saying, if a child is not raised to the age of twelve years old, it is not considered to be fed. In many places, children under the age of 12 are not even given names. Therefore. Even if Lu Fang murdered this child, but this child has no title or name, it is not a major crime of rebellion, and it is not suitable for punishment. ”

"When did you, Sun Jingyun, become proficient in the law and learn to be a sword and penman?" Huang Jin sneered: "I admit that I can't say anything about you, who told our family to serve two generations of kings since childhood, and they don't have much knowledge." Unlike Lu Fang, they have entered the inner study hall since they were children, and there is a famous teacher like Sun Dan who mentions his life. But. Reading too much of this book is not necessarily a good thing. Just like your grandson, how did you cultivate a rebellious minister and thief without a king and a father? The inner study hall is really a good place to go! ”

Sun stared at Huang Jin lightly: "Indeed, Lu Fang is my student, but Huang Gonggong is the steward of the Inner Book Hall, speaking of which, he is your protΓ©gΓ©." Lu Fang was able to enter Yuxi Palace, was it Huang Gonggong's will? ”

Hearing the words, Jiajing's knife-like gaze stabbed Huang Jin's body, causing Huang Jin's body to shrink in fright. Qiang said: "I, the steward of the inner study hall, is just a name. ”

Probably knowing that his explanation was a bit far-fetched, Huang Jin was in a hurry, after learning that Lu Fang had been drugged. He was naturally ecstatic, thinking that he had seized a great opportunity to win Queen Chen. can see what Sun Dan means now, as if he wants to splash dirty water on himself.

Huang Jin had no choice but to say: "Even if Lu Fang's crime is not applicable to the punishment, it is always okay to be sentenced to a decisive sentence, right?" He had no confidence in saying this, and he always felt that he had been bypassed by Sun Dan.

A sense of foreboding rose in my heart.

Sun Dan suddenly smiled: "Gonggong Huang, you are wrong again." ”

Huang Jin was so laughed by him: "Why is our family wrong again?" ”

Sun Dan said softly: "You and I are not officials of Dali Temple, the Inspectorate and the Criminal Department, how to convict criminals can not be convicted by you and me." However, Sun Dan has also read Da Ming Law II several times on weekdays, and drugging and aborting a fetus is not a murder. According to the law, a baby is not a human life until it lands. So. According to Sun Dan's opinion, Lu Fang was drugged and had an abortion, and at most he could only be sentenced to one crime of injury. He used medicine to injure Zhang Guifei's body. Concubine Zhang didn't die because of taking medicine, so Lu Fang didn't commit a murder. According to the law, a maximum of fifty sticks will be struck, and some decoction will be compensated. ”

Sun Dan's crooked truth made everyone in the hall feel shocked, and they were all sweating in shock.

And the more Emperor Jiajing listened, the more angry he became, and his face was darker than the bottom of the pot.

His chest heaved violently. A pair of eyes looked at Sun Dan coldly.

Sun Dan knew that he had aroused the emperor's resentment, but in order to save Lu Fang, he couldn't care about it much. The emperor had the opportunity to mend relations with him in the future, but Lu Fangruo died. His proud protΓ©gΓ© is no longer there

As for Empress Chen, when she heard Sun Dan say this, she was so happy that she almost laughed out loud proudly.

But seeing Sun Dan glaring at her fiercely, Empress Chen was a little scared in her heart, knowing that now was not the time to be complacent. He immediately lowered his head and pretended to be very sad. But the corners of his mouth are clearly curved and upturned.

Huang Jin was stunned by Sun Dan's words, and it took a long time to stutter: "You, you, you" You are so bold, unexpectedly, that Concubine Zhang Niangniang looked at it as an ordinary peasant woman. That "Lu Fang dared to drug the concubine, which was actually a great crime of disrespect, and he should be hanged according to the law." ”

"Grandpa Huang is wrong again." Sun Dan gently interrupted Huang Jin's words.

"How could I be wrong again, how could I be wrong again." Huang Jin was a little devastated by Sun Dan. The eyes of the plea for help fell on the emperor.

The Emperor had a deep disgust on his face. I don't know if it's Sun Dan or Huang Jin: "Sun Dan, you say, listen to you." ”

Sun Dan said: "The reason why the minister said that Gonggong Huang was wrong again is because Concubine Zhang is just a concubine in the palace. The so-called great disrespect is the retain to the monarch. If he offended His Majesty or the Queen, the charge of disrespect would be confirmed. But the concubine is a concubine after all. But not the queen's mother. Really, the queen is the king, but the concubine is the minister. When Huang Gonggong said this, didn't he mess up the monarch and ministers, and he had the intention to stir up a good situation of harmony between the two palaces? Huang Gonggong lost his words. ”

His big hat was pressed down, and Huang Jin's forehead was full of sweat, his legs were weak, and he almost knelt in front of the emperor and empress. The relationship between the father and son of the monarch and the minister is the moral foundation for maintaining the operation of the Ming Dynasty Empire, what is more serious than disturbing the Gangchang?

"Our family is speechless, our family is speechless," Huang Jin muttered, crying and mourning: "If such a big thing happens, is it just so high and gently put down, in this way, where is the face of my heavenly family?" ”

Hearing Huang Jin say this, the emperor woke up suddenly. He is narrow-minded, the most leading..., how can he tolerate Lu Fang to live a sharp Xi Gu and shouted! "Sun Dan, I can't see that you can say so much with the spell, let's say, go on, see what other laws of heaven and earth do you want to teach?"

With the emperor's support, Huang Jin came to the spirit and shouted: "What a Sun Dan, I was really dizzy by you just now, and I forgot a little point... Lu Fang is just a little eunuch. Who lent him the bear-hearted leopard dared to drug Concubine Zhang. ”

He turned around suddenly, knelt in front of the emperor, and sobbed: "Your Majesty, this matter is very important at this moment. I also hope that the person behind the Holy Admiral Lu Fang will be found out and justice will be given to the world. ”

Emperor: "Lian naturally wants to investigate thoroughly, as long as Lian detects the main messenger behind him, no matter how big she is, Lian will not tolerate it." ”

Huang Jin was still kneeling on the ground, and when he heard this, he knew that the emperor had moved to abolish Empress Chen, and said in a timely manner: "As far as the minister knows, Lu Fang is the personal eunuch of the queen's mother. Lu Fang is doing such a heartbreaking thing now, I don't know if Niangniang knows? ”

Empress Chen raised her eyebrows and was about to refute it, but Sun Dan interjected: "Gonggong Huang is still wrong?" ”

Sun Dan's words made Huang Jin completely collapse. shouted: "Sun Dan, you can't say anything else, why am I always wrong?" ”

Emperor: "Sun Dan, Lian thinks Huang Jin is right." How could it be wrong again? ”

Sun Dan: "As far as the minister knows, Lu Fang only began to serve Empress Chen on the sixth day of the first lunar month, and it has only been nine days now. There are so many palace maids and eunuchs in the queen's bedroom, if something happens, the queen will be responsible. Can the mother be responsible? Nine days is only enough for the queen to remember his name and face. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Empress Chen from the corner of his eye, and said in his heart: What to do, I taught you just now, it depends on your current performance.

Empress Chen is not a problem. Stupid people, but usually irritable and impatient to do some things. Now, it is a matter of life and death. You can only put your body down. She hurriedly walked up to the emperor and knelt down, sobbing, "Your Majesty." Lu Fang is indeed the personal eunuch of the concubine. The concubine was also blind and favored this white-eyed wolf, and he used the concubine's trust to harm Concubine Zhang. The concubine was guilty of negligence. Please also ask Your Majesty to punish you. The concubine didn't want to stay in this palace anymore, so she went to the Huanyi Bureau to wait for His Majesty's fall. ”

Empress Chen's move to retreat into advance shocked Huang Jin's group of people, knowing that things were not good.

Huang Jin glanced at Sun Dan resentfully. I was angry in my heart: This Empress Chen has been helped by Sun Dan, a shrewd person like a ghost, and has become a difficult character. His Majesty seems to be a bland, but sometimes he is very soft-hearted and short-sighted. I'm afraid that this level will really pass Queen Chen safely.

Sure enough, Empress Chen's face was full of tears, which made the emperor's heart suddenly move, and he suddenly remembered the relationship between husband and wife when he was in Anlu, but his heart softened, and he softened his tone: "Get up, what are you doing." Lu Fang's matter has not been clarified yet, he has only been with you for a few days, even if he commits a great crime, it will not be on you. ”

Empress Chen still didn't get up, and continued to cry: "Although Your Majesty is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, there has never been a dragon son, which is not a blessing for the country. When the concubine heard that Concubine Zhang was pregnant, she was also happy in her heart, and burned incense and chanted scriptures every day for His Majesty to beg for the dragon seed in Concubine Zhang's belly. But I didn't expect things to turn out like this, and the concubine was also sad in her heart! Concubine Zhang's face is the same as that of a man, if she takes care of her body. In the future, I will definitely give birth to a healthy and beautiful prince for Your Majesty. But Concubine Zhang is now sick like this, and she also asks Your Majesty for permission to let the concubine go to Concubine Zhang's sister's bedroom, so that she can take care of it nearby. Your Majesty can rest assured that in two months, Concubine Zhang's sister will be raised to be white and fat. ”

Empress Chen's words surprised the emperor and moved him a little, and he stepped forward to help Empress Chen up: "You have this heart, and I am very happy in my heart." I can't see that you are really an open-minded person. She is worthy of being the queen of the union! That's right. ”

Empress Chen's heart was relieved, knowing that she had kept her position as the queen, and she naturally admired Sun Dan to the ground, and her tears were still flowing. I don't know if I'm scared or happy.

Huang Jin was depressed in his heart, and when he met Sun Dan, he always had a feeling that he had the strength but couldn't use it.

But now Empress Chen has successfully passed the test. But in his heart, he was very reluctant.

Then he said: "Sun Dan, you said that the queen mother only accepted Lu Fang for nine days, so, who do you think is the main messenger behind him?" ”

Sun Dan's heart had already relaxed, and he said with a smile: "I still have to ask Gonggong Huang about this?" ”

Huang Jin: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Sun Dan: "Although Lu Fang is my Sun Dan's student, Sun Dan is just a teaching senior. The steward of the inner study hall is Huang Gonggong. Is my father-in-law gone? ”

Huang Jin saw that Sun Danyue was about to put the charge on his head, and he was anxious and said angrily: "Sun." Tasteless. You're going to spew blood, right? ”

The expression on the emperor's face had calmed down, and there were some confusion and some disapproval, so he no longer thought about asking about it: "Okay, both of you are old ministers when you were in the dragon dive, aren't you afraid that the foreign ministers will see jokes when you quarrel like this?" Let's all go down. As for Lu Fang, he will be locked up in Beiya first, no, in the prison of the Criminal Department. "Guan Jinyiwei is convenient in prison, but this matter has alarmed the entire government and the opposition, if it is hidden again, I am afraid that there will be a lot of nonsense among the officials. simply and generously handed over the person to the criminal department for interrogation, as Sun Dan said just now, if he personally convicted Lu Fang. If you don't conform to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid that you will be scolded by the officials.

Those officials were honored to scold the emperor. But the United will not give them this opportunity.

Huang Jin had to reluctantly retreat. Sun Dan didn't want to leave, and finally caught the opportunity to see the emperor, how could he let it go.

Emperor: "Sun Dan, what else do you have to say?" He was very dissatisfied with Sun Dan.

Sun Dan pretended to talk about political affairs: "I just want to tell Your Majesty about the tax reform in Fangshan." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." The tariff reform and the emperor's money bag are big things, and the emperor can't ignore them. He told them to stand down and sat down.

"Your Majesty really thinks that the minister wants to talk about Fangshan?" Sun Dan asked suddenly.

The emperor was even more unhappy: "Do you still want to dwell on what happened just now, it is a family affair of Lian." ”

"Your Majesty, everyone's affairs are also the affairs of the world. I'm afraid that this matter has already spread to the capital, if Your Majesty is not good to deal with. I'm afraid it will lead to slander. Sun Dan suddenly laughed: "In his heart, the saint really thinks that Lu Fang's drug was instigated by Empress Chen?" ”

"It's not who she is, Lian just doesn't do it ruthlessly." Somehow, the emperor is now dissatisfied with Sun Dan. But he couldn't help but tell the truth, B maybe, Sun Dan is the kind of character who is easy to make people sympathetic, right?

Sun Dan said leisurely: "Your Majesty, don't you hear the allusion that Wu Zetian killed his baby? In the battle of the harem, there are often unexpected things, and everything may not be speculated by common sense. ”

The Emperor stood up abruptly, staring at Sun Dan with wide eyes. said in a trembling voice: "What do you mean?" How bold are you? ”
