Chapter 731: Imperial Trial

Listening to the report of the little eunuch, Huizong Zhao Ji's complexion immediately became a little difficult to look at, ordinary people are fine, but these students of Biyong are a little difficult, ordinary one or two are meaningless, gather more to make themselves annoyed, scholars are the foundation of the country, and this dynasty has the ancestral training of not offending scholars, it is really impossible to beat, scold, and even more guilty.

I didn't expect that detaining a Lotte would bring such a big reaction, which was really unexpected by Zhao Ji.

Things are getting more and more troublesome, Zhao Jixin began to change the line a little, if you know that there will be this situation, you don't have to issue an edict to arrest Lotte before, just call the Lotte Palace, Lotte has the merit of destroying the summer, and is the hero of the country, because of a brawl to mortgage the hero of the country, he was really a little impulsive before.

The historical Zhao Ji is indulged in pleasure, but he is not a complete mediocre king, Fuhe Huang and Hua Liao all represent his determination to forge ahead, but the people around him are too weak, so that he ended up hunting in the north and dying in a foreign land.

Liang Shicheng was accustomed to observing his face, and immediately saw that Zhao Ji was a little remorseful, and hurriedly took the opportunity to play: "Your Majesty, there are students and people outside the palace gate to make trouble, and they will be instigated by Lotte, Your Majesty should not be confused by the assumptions in front of you, Your Majesty is the minister of a country, and the court should be arbitrary, how can you be subject to the grass people and scholars, and what is the majesty of the heavenly family in the long run?"

Furthermore, if this time that Lotte profits, the courtiers will follow suit, if this continues, the situation will be uncontrollable, everyone will follow the example of that Lotte, if Your Majesty does not deal with it strictly, the court will be chaotic! ”

Hearing Liang Shicheng say this, Zhao Ji thought for a moment and nodded: "What Liang Qing said is very true, when my father, Emperor Shenzong, attacked Xia, and wanted to deal with a crime and transfer the judge, he was also controlled by the courtiers and could not be punished, if I retreat this time, it will be even more difficult for the courtiers to be cured in the future!" ”

The reason why Zhao Ji used the eunuchs Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng to deal with political affairs was because he was constrained by the courtiers at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, and he used eunuchs to control the ministers, so that he was comfortable as an emperor; Zhao Ji is like this, and the lazy emperors of the Zhu Ming Dynasty in later generations are also the same, using eunuchs to control officials and relieve their husbands.

However, history has repeatedly shown that it was a foolish decision to put the eunuchs in power.

Although Lotte has contributed to the Great Song Dynasty, but in essence, people like Lotte are not easy to control, and even because of their youth and vigor, they also had a small temper with themselves and resigned, of course, they have to give them some lessons, so as not to know the height of the sky.

At this time, the Yushitai's recital was handed over by the inner attendant, during which the results of the interrogation of Lotte were written, as well as the reason why the little eunuch was beaten, for Lotte to deny the accusation, Zhao Jixin had expected it, but the little eunuch was beaten just because he went out and cursed Lotte for two sentences, which made Zhao Ji can't help but raise his eyebrows, and he feels more and more that Liang Shicheng's words make sense.

Waiting for Zhao Ji, Liang Shicheng also saw the content of the song next to him, and hurriedly fanned the flames and said: "Your Majesty, you see, what the slave said is right, the people of Biandu know that there is Lotte but they don't know that there is Your Majesty!" ”

didn't wait for a while, another letter was handed over, but the author of this letter was not an ordinary person, but Zhao Huan, the prince of the East Palace. Seeing the prince's recital, Zhao Ji was a little surprised, although his eldest son had the position of the prince, he did not participate in political affairs like other princes in previous dynasties, but today he sent a recital, which was really surprising to himself.

I opened the recital and looked at it, the content of the face was very simple, first talked about Lotte's merits, and then asked Zhao Huan to take it lightly, and finally asked Lotte and Yang Jian to confront each other face to face to prove the facts.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also bewitched by that Lotte!" Seeing the crown prince Zhao Huanben, the Liang Shi who helped Zhao Kai found the truth to attack Zhao Huan when he was established, and then took the opportunity to say: "His Royal Highness King Yun is still steady, not confused by Lotte!" ”

Ignoring Liang Shicheng, Zhao Ji began to think about the prince Zhao Huanlai, the prince Zhao Huan has a weak temperament, and he has always been cautious and careful when he speaks in front of him.

"Your Majesty!" While Zhao Ji was thinking, the general administration officer of the General Administration Department came in with a stack of music and said: "This morning, the ministers received many officials in Beijing, all of whom guarantee the innocence of the Marquis of Pingyu!" ”

"How many letters have you received?" Zhao Ji was slightly startled and asked very eagerly.

"Now I have received more than 200 letters, most of which are Beijing officials below the sixth grade!" The official said, and hesitated: "But there is still a gradual upward trend at the moment. ”

Why do the Beijing officials below the sixth grade will keep the lotte safe, it makes sense, Yang Jian's public land is also to watch people put down dishes, and Yang Jian will never touch the interests of these officials if they are three grades or higher, and he has no scruples about those low-grade officials.

Now that Lotte is making more and more trouble, these low-grade officials immediately stood up either out of their own interests or out of jealousy of the eunuchs.

Not only the crown prince Zhao Huan, but also Huizong Zhao Ji's temperament is also a little cowardly and vacillating, to put it bluntly, the ears are soft, after thinking about it, I feel that Zhao Huan's words are still very reasonable, and he decreed: "Today at noon, we will discuss in the Vertical Arch Palace, and call Lotte and Yang Jian to confront each other!" ”

Things have become more and more complicated, according to Zhao Jixin's original thoughts, if Lotte calmly admits guilt, he is only compensating Yang Jian's medical expenses, and then severely fined him a few hundred catties of copper, but he didn't think that the matter is getting bigger and more complicated, and even the people and students are also coaxing together, it is better to cut the mess quickly, so as not to delay the more troublesome.

The case between Lotte and Yang Jian has now become a battle between eunuchs and foreign ministers, Liang Shicheng, who was standing next to Zhao Ji, realized it at this moment, and said busily: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, there have been proverbial clouds in the people to defend each other, and now the ministers are fighting, and Yang Guan is afraid that it will be a ...... in vain."

Zhao Ji was even more shocked at the moment, this conflict was originally between Lotte and Yang Jian, but now it has turned into a battle between the chamberlain and the official, which is really beyond his expectations, and he issued an edict: "Today's noon court meeting, summon the palace seven internal servants to also enter the palace to listen to affairs!" ”

There is a Song generation of Zhao family ancestors have trained eunuchs not to interfere in politics, think that the eunuchs of this dynasty Dou Shenbao and Li Xian have made great achievements, but they are still controlled by officials, but since their accession to the throne, the eunuchs have been reused so that the eunuchs are no longer controlled by officials. Now there is a war between Lotte and Yang Jian between eunuchs and ministers, and the more than 200 letters of support for Lotte are clearly in support of Lotte.

Cutting through the mess quickly is also the only way to deal with this matter.

Although the officials of the court are silent, everyone is paying attention to this matter, and when the will is issued, the courtiers immediately received the order, knowing that when the matter is at its most lively, they are waiting for the arrival of the afternoon to see the showdown between Lotte and Yang Jian at the peak of the Great Interior.

The emperor is the supreme ruler of the Great Song Dynasty, not Dali Siqing or Kaifeng Yin, and now he personally interrogates the case, which is unprecedented in all dynasties, not only shocking the world, but also enough to be written into the history books.

When the decree reached the Imperial Historical Observatory, the chief and deputy chief of the Imperial Historical Observatory and the three chief judges were also taken aback immediately, and they were all puzzled that His Majesty interrogated him in person, and it was very likely that he was provoked by the eunuchs in the palace.

Lotte, who was "imprisoned" in the imperial history platform, heard the news, and his heart was also taken aback, this dynasty has a saying that he is not guilty of officials, and instigated the people to mutiniate and beat the eunuchs of the inner court, as long as he resolutely refuses to admit this, the Son of Heaven has nothing to do with himself, but the Son of Heaven personally interrogated, and the meaning can be complicated.

The trick he used yesterday to incite the people to brush up his prestige can be shown to the officials of the Imperial Historical Tower, but does this work for the Son of Heaven? Lotte couldn't help but get nervous.

Soon after noon, after Lotte had eaten, I saw the royal Shi Cheng Wang Anxing come in and said: "Lord Lehou, please go to the Ouchi Hanging Arch Hall with this official!" ”

Lotte hurriedly said: "Please wait for a while, and Le will tidy up his appearance a little, and then go with Lord Cheng!" ”

"Boss Cheng, the outside of the Yushitai is blocked by the people!" When Wang An nodded, he only heard a bad report.

"Go through the back door!" is probably used to escaping the back door, Wang An is very familiar with the road.

After Wang An's voice fell, he only heard the cha Ling continue to say: "Boss Cheng, the back door has also been blocked by the people!" ”

Wang An pondered for a moment and said, "Look carefully, what suspicious characters are there among the people?" ”

The messenger hurriedly replied: "Look carefully, there are people and students gathered outside the gate, and there are many female dancers in the green building!" ”

Wang An was very puzzled and said angrily: "What Kutian is doing is just for the students and the people, why are these dusty women also making a lot of fun?" ”

Seeing that Wang An was angry, the messenger did not dare to answer.

Immediately, Wang An ordered: "Send all the soldiers to drive away these people, students and female soldiers, this time it is Your Majesty who summons them, and you must not rub on the road." ”

Soon, the errand and soldiers of the Imperial Historical Observatory rushed out of their nests and drove aside the common people, the students and the female servants who were guarding the gate of the Imperial Historical Observatory, and then these messengers and the soldiers formed a wall to block these people from the side of the road.

In front of the gate that the Yushitai had just cleared, several carriages stopped, and then Wang An walked out with the Lotte Yushitai Gate.

"Lord Lehou!"

"Master Hou, have you suffered......"

"The ...... of the hermitage"

……

Lotte just walked through the gate of the Yushitai, and immediately became the focus of attention, all kinds of calls were called, and the figure was crowded forward, if it weren't for the officers and soldiers over there holding the blade bullet, the scene would be out of control immediately.

Seeing so many people coming, Lotte hurriedly gave a long bow to the people.

"Lord Hou asks for the people's life, I don't want to be in prison, I will be inseparable from that traitorous eunuch!" As Lotte got up, someone immediately shouted.
