Chapter 216: Monarch and Minister
As a result of this sudden rebellion, the innocent people in Kyoto, except for those well-guarded high gate mansions, were killed and wounded, so that within a month, almost everyone in the family was going to be buried out of the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because of Qin Keqing's death, the east and west gates of Ningrong Mansion were hung with white flags, and a mourning hall was arranged in Ningguo's Mansion.
It's just that now Jia Lian is injured and the country is in mourning outside, so Jia Lian's proposal to keep everything simple and low-key has also been unanimously approved by everyone.
As for Jia Rong, who was supposed to be the main master, except for a few occasions when she had to show up, she spent more time every day but didn't know where she was.
Outsiders only say that Jia Rong is not affectionate, but the people of Ning Rong's second mansion know that the relationship between husband and wife is weak, and now they see Jia Rong not the slightest sadness, but a look of relief, but they are not surprised.
And the imperial court has been arresting the fugitives involved in this rebellion for a long time, and the Jinyi army and the ordinary arresters have traveled through the streets and alleys, making Kyoto jump up and down, so after Qin Keqing's funeral, Ning Rong and the two mansions began to close their doors.
Because Jia Lian was injured, he aimed to recuperate at home, time passed day by day, and Jia Lian's injury improved day by day, but every day in the house, he could also hear the news of who was arrested today and who was killed on the spot tomorrow.
For the sake of the supreme throne, no matter whether it succeeds or not, it will definitely be crowded in the end, and the victor will never leave any hidden danger to himself!
As a result, the entire Celestial Empire was in turmoil, especially in Kyoto, and there were countless families who had new mournings, so even during the New Year, there was no lively atmosphere in previous years.
After the beginning of spring, Jia Lian, who had been recuperating for more than three months, finally recovered as before because he was personally treated by the imperial doctor and used the best medicine.
And since that day, Wang Xifeng watched Jia Lian being carried back in a dying state, this time she was really frightened, and she finally figured out that if Jia Lian really had three long and two short, what would it mean to be alone in the second half of her life, so she became more and more gentle and considerate of Jia Lian.
And Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun also came to visit Jia Lian a few times during the period, but after the kiss, the two girls were a lot cramped, and they sat down and left every time.
Even a generous and hearty girl like Shi Xiangyun, although she has now lived back in the Qingyin Pavilion in the Grand View Garden, she also twisted when facing Jia Lian.
On the contrary, the two brothers Shi Nai and Shi Ding came to visit Jia Lian the most diligently, how many real officials were implicated in this rebellion, and there were not a few exiles who robbed their homes and killed their heads, so how many important official positions were vacant, how could they not make these two Shi brothers who only had a false lord tempted?
And Jia Lian is the biggest contributor to this rebellion, and he also blocked a knife for the emperor by himself, how did the two brothers of the Shi family, who are the most proficient, not come to Jia Lian's door, and even said that their niece was going to marry Jia Lian's wife.
It's just that it is different from the utilitarian heart of the two marquis of the Shi family, according to Jia Lian's temperament, this injury must be cultivated for half a year and ten months, but on this day, Wang Ziteng, who was far away in the border county to inspect the army for the emperor, sent someone to deliver the news, saying that the rebellion was almost over, and the emperor intended to amnesty the world to calm the people's hearts, so let Jia Lian take the opportunity to see if he could get Xue Pan out of prison.
Although in Jia Lian's view, Xue Pan only had to sit in prison for three years if he injured people's lives, which was already a big advantage; And with his own relationship, Xue Pan can't stand too much sin in prison, but can take the opportunity to learn a lesson, so that he can change his mind and be a new person in the future.
However, Wang Ziteng may want his sister to receive Jia Lian's favor, so while sending a letter to Jia Lian, he also sent a letter to Aunt Xue, explaining that this emperor's amnesty is the best opportunity for Xue Pan to get out, and it is inconvenient for him to be on the border, and said that he has asked Jia Lian to act as Zhou Yunyun.
After Aunt Xue received the letter, she waited in her home for a day and didn't see Jia Lian come over to convey the news, and on the second day, Aunt Xue, who couldn't bear it anymore, took Xue Baochai over and begged Jia Lian in person.
In this way, Jia Lian couldn't shirk it in the end, so he had to promise to face the saint in person on the day of the next pilgrimage, and then deal with it with the camera.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the court meeting, and Jia Lian took a sedan chair to the court early.
When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty saw Jia Lian coming, they all stepped forward to ask for warmth, this rebellion in Iron Net Mountain, how many ministers saw the means of Jia Lian's Shenji Battalion with their own eyes, and more importantly, this rebellion was obviously a plan after the emperor and Jia Lian had already gotten the news.
With such a great merit and the emperor's trust, even a few auxiliary ministers dare not underestimate Jia Lian now.
After the emperor came to the court, when he saw Jia Lian recovering from his injury, his eyes lit up at first, and then the first sentence was to greet Jia Lian's injury first, which attracted the envy of the ministers.
After the government affairs were handled, the emperor left Jia Lian's imperial study alone to speak.
It's just that when Jia Lian was waiting in the imperial study first, the first thing he was waiting for was not the emperor himself, but a team of guards of the Imperial Forest Army with steel knives out of the sheath.
Is this the so-called 'all the birds flying, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking'? Jia Lian sneered and thought, looking at this familiar imperial study, this is not the place where he met the emperor for the first time.
Then I saw the emperor slowly walk in with a complicated face, but this time Jia Lian did not kneel down again, the two only looked at each other quietly.
"Grandpa Guo, why don't you give the emperor a salute?" Gonggong Li in the imperial study is actually more optimistic about Jia Lian in his heart, but in this situation, there is not much room for him to speak.
However, Jia Lian smiled slightly and replied, "Thank you Gonggong Li for mentioning it, but Lian thinks there is no need to do more." Then Jia Lian turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, what I said is right?" ”
The Emperor replied expressionlessly, "Are you resenting me?" ”
Jia Lian said with a smile: "Jia Lian doesn't dare, as the old saying goes, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, I just don't want to die on my knees; It would be better if the emperor could make Jia Lian die and not be that fool. ”
The emperor stared at Jia Lian for a while, then walked to the chair behind the bookcase and sat down, and finally said: "Jia Lian, Jia Lian, if it is possible, how can I be willing to do this, why am I unwilling to train you to be my right-hand man." ”
"Thank you to the emperor for his attention, but I don't know when Jia Lian made the emperor have murderous thoughts again?" Jia Lian asked indifferently.
I saw the emperor chanting slowly: "I cherish the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and I lost my literary brilliance slightly; Tang Dynasty and Song Zu, slightly less coquettish; A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle. The past, the number of romantic figures, but also look at the present. Jia Lian, isn't it enough for you to write such words and phrases to prove your ambition?! ”
At this moment, the air in the imperial study seemed to freeze with the emperor's shouts, and the guards of the Imperial Forest Army who were on guard would capture or kill Jia Lian on the spot as long as the emperor gave an order.
