Lao Tzu was lynched, what can you do? Ji Yan sneered in his heart, but said with a sincere expression: "Oh? This king is going to consult Situ, if according to the law of etiquette, what should be done with such people who are corrupt and pervert the law and embezzle state funds? ”

Wang Xu felt that he had won back a city, but he was not in a hurry to speak, but raised the wine that had been poured by the inner servant and said, "The old minister respects my king." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" slowly finished the cup, and then said calmly: "According to the etiquette law, if the hundred officials are suspected of corruption, someone must report it, and the head of the Qiuguan Mansion will send officials to verify it according to the report, and if the corruption is true, it will be arrested and imprisoned, and the judge will draw up the responsibility according to the practice, and after the approval of the judge, the punishment will be carried out by the judge in accordance with the provisions of the criminal law." ”

Wang Xu paused for a moment and said: "In this way, it can be regarded as observing etiquette according to the law and clearly proving the punishment, so that no one will raise any objections." ”

This whole process is really rigorous and reasonable! Ji Yan frowned slightly, he didn't understand the law at all, and it seemed that he really had to find time to consult with Uncle Wang Ji Jing for advice. "If no one reports it, is there nothing to be done about those lawbreakers?"

"Since no one has reported it, how can there be a lawbreaker?" Wang continued to ask in a deep voice.

Ji Yan was speechless for a while, and Ne said: "In this way, this king is really lynched." So, what should be done about such acts? Should this king be arrested and tried? ”

Wang Xu was caught off guard by Ji Yan's sudden counterattack, and hesitated slightly: "My king is the son of heaven, and all officials are subordinate to the son of heaven, so he has no right to try it, and there is no law in the etiquette system. ”

"Hahaha!" Ji Yan thinks it's really funny, you really want to pull it on your head, no matter how bullish you are, you are helpless, happy, happy, who made Lao Tzu the son of heaven? "Wang Qing, come on, let's drink." After saying that, he raised his glass and dried it with a grunt.

Looking at this young man's appearance of being a villain, Wang Xu's tense nerves slowly relaxed: I thought you had grown up, but you were still the child who had no city government, and the old man was worried in vain. He sneered in his heart and toasted.

"Smack!" With a bang, Ji Yan suddenly slapped a few bamboo cards on the desk, "This king is going to cut these few things that don't know what to do." ”

Wang Xu couldn't keep up with the startled beat of the Son of Heaven at all, and was startled by the sudden sound, and couldn't help frowning, looking at Ji Yan suspiciously.

"I invited Wang Qing to come here today for this matter. Come on, come on, Wang Qing and come and see, there are people you know, lest this king hurt his own people by mistake. ”

From where Wang Xu was sitting, he couldn't see the names on the sign, and he was unwilling to put down the shelf and get up and walk to the side of the desk of the Son of Heaven, so he asked suspiciously: "I don't know who these people are?" ”

"Who else can there be, naturally someone in the forbidden army, who else can the king deal with besides the forbidden army?" Ji Yan said in a slightly self-deprecating voice.

"Forbidden Army?" Wang Xu sighed in his heart, that is the concentration of the children of the powerful, these four people in the hands of the Son of Heaven, one or two of them have something to do with him, he couldn't help but get a little nervous, and hurriedly asked: "Why did my king cut them down?" What kind of military regulations did they all violate? ”

Ji Yan's face was full of indignation: "Wang Qing, you said, the military regulations that were announced yesterday are violated today, isn't it too much?" Isn't it too indifferent to me? If you don't cut them, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred of the lonely heart! ”

"What kind of military regulations did they violate?" Wang continued to think about seeing if he could make a fuss about it.

"Absent from training!" Ji Yan was still angry: "This king only announced yesterday in front of all the forbidden troops that those who are absent from training will be beheaded. Saying that, he slapped a palm on these bamboo cards with a "snap", "These things are good, I just announced yesterday, and I won't come today, isn't this a deliberate attempt to get along with this king?" Do you think that the sword of this king is not good? For the sake of military discipline and royal power, Lone must cut them down, and he will cut them today! The voice was hateful, sonorous and powerful, revealing an irrevocable determination.

The forbidden army of the Son of Heaven has always been a gilded place for the magnates, and the lax and deserted military discipline is abandoned, but Wang Xu knows that being late or absent is really commonplace, since the Son of Heaven said that they are absent, then it must be absent. No one had ever punished these violators before, so why did they suddenly have to be punished? This kid is too willful!

The problem is that the military power of the forbidden army is in the hands of the Son of Heaven, he said that he wants to cut people according to military discipline, and others really can't say anything, even if he is the boss of the local government, it seems that these people are afraid that they will not escape. But what if there really are people among them? Thinking of this, Wang Xu couldn't care about being reserved anymore, hurriedly got up and rushed to the desk of the Son of Heaven, looked at the bamboo card, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but gasp, and his face instantly darkened.

The first is his own person, Wang Yuan, the eldest son of the Ji Di Wang Dan family, the first heir of the baron, which must not be cut by the Son of Heaven; The second is named Yang Fang, Wang Xu thought about it a little, and remembered that this person was the son and nephew of Yang Taiwei, and he accompanied Taiwei to meet him a few months ago, and he was a clever young man, and he couldn't let the Son of Heaven cut it; The third is named Ji Duo, I don't know, I should be a child of the royal family, no matter what; The last one is called Ji Ying, Ji Ying, Wang Xu silently muttered this name in his heart, how can he be so familiar? It's not good, there was a gleam in his eyes, isn't this the grandson of Si Kou Ji Jing? If this person is cut down, it will be terrible! The consequences may be catastrophic, and the corners of my mouth twitch.

Wang Xu raised his head, took two deep breaths to suppress the excitement in his heart, and then slowly walked towards his position, thinking quickly about how to let the Son of Heaven keep these few people.

Ji Yan watched coldly, taking Wang Xu's demeanor and demeanor into his eyes one by one, and he was already determined in his heart, knowing that he would win this game.

Wang Xu walked back to his position and sat down slowly, frowning and pondering, still not speaking. Ji Yan raised his wine and said with a smile: "Situ don't have to be angry about this kind of lawless thing, everything will be clean after this king is cut down later." Come on, come on, toast. After speaking, he tilted his neck and swallowed a bottle of wine into his stomach with a "grunt".

This loud sound of swallowing wine fell in Wang Xu's ears, which was tantamount to a kind of heart-piercing mockery, and the serenity and grace on his face were suddenly washed away by the surging blood, and even the Son of Heaven couldn't care about not drinking it, he stood up and bent down at Ji Yan and said: "Enlighten my king, if there are really his own people among them, the old minister wants to ask my king for a request, read it for the sake of them are still first-time offenders, spare them this time!" ”

"Oh? Is there really a family of Szeto? Ji Yan asked in confusion: "If Situ is a pillar of the country, presumably the family rules must be strict, why is there such a person who violates military discipline?" ”

Hearing these sarcastic words, Wang Xu hated it in his heart, and secretly said that this kind of child who does not understand the world is really unreasonable, and he has pleaded with three or four lows, what do you want to do if you don't push the boat down the river? What about the Son of Heaven? provoked the old man to become angry, and it was not difficult to replace him. But hate to hate, and the imminent matter can't be dealt with first.

"Qi my king, ten fingers can not be the average length, not to mention that my Wang family is a big family in Luoyang, and there are no less than 100 young children, among which it is common for one or two unscrupulous sons to appear. The old minister once again begged my king to be gracious and spare these unscrupulous sons, and after he went back, the old minister must deal with it according to the family rules. "Wang Xu, this is to let out the old face.

Ji Yan frowned into a big ball, and his face was full of embarrassment: "It stands to reason that Situ pleaded with this king, and this king can't refuse no matter what, but it's ......."

Seeing that the tone of the Son of Heaven was somewhat relaxed, Wang Xu was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I don't know what my king is still afraid of, if the old minister can help one or two, he will definitely help." ”

Ji Yan shook his head slowly and said: "It's nothing else, it's just that if the first time the military law is implemented, it will be over, and this king will be like going back on his word and slapping himself, how will he train the forbidden army in the future, and how will he require them to abide by military discipline?" ”

"This ......" Wang continued to be speechless for a while, although he thought that the so-called training of the forbidden army by the young emperor was only three minutes of enthusiasm, but what he said was really reasonable, and he could not refute it.

Ji Yan smiled and raised the wine again: "It's just a few pawns, we don't have to worry about them." Wang Qing, come, drink. ”

Wang Xu raised the wine and drank it silently, only to feel that the wine was bitter, which made him frown tightly. He has always been known for his calm atmosphere in the secretary of state of Zhou, even for the old and refined Taishi, he has never fallen behind, but he didn't expect to be messed up by this young man who he never put in his eyes today, which made his chest feel like a big stone pressed against him, and it was very uncomfortable: Am I really old? Could it be that the old man will really be planted in the hands of an offspring today? No, these people must stay, not to mention that they have a lot to do with themselves, even if they are just cats and dogs, since the old man has opened his mouth, there is no room for loss.

Thinking of this, Wang Xu finally calmed down and regained his usual composure, he slowly put down the wine honor, looked at Ji Yan with burning eyes, and arched his hand: "Qi my king, these people, the old minister must stay, what do you ask my king to say, as long as the old minister can do it, he will definitely die!" Although his words were tactful, the subtext was that no matter whether you agreed or not, the old man would leave these people behind, which was very rude to the courtiers.

Ji Yan ignored the subtext in his words, and didn't care whether he was rude or not, he was only interested in his words themselves, talking about conditions and making demands was exactly what he wanted. He made an expression that was extremely difficult but couldn't touch Situ's heart, and frowned: "I invited Wang Qing to come over today, just to let you see if there are any of your own people, but I didn't expect that there really is, how can this king let you be disappointed?" If Wang Qing can cut his love and put Beishi under the internal affairs superintendent, this king will feel that these people are not so hateful. ”

"Okay," Wang Xu simply responded, without delay: "Since my king speaks, Beishi will immediately be assigned to the internal affairs supervisor, and the old minister will go down and settle with the internal affairs supervisor's mansion." ”

Ji Yan clapped his hands, raised his wine excitedly and said, "I know that Wang Qing is a refreshing person, sure enough!" Come, this king respects Wang Aiqing. ”

Wang Xu was also very happy to see that it was so easy to talk, and he raised his glass and drank it all. You know, this market has not been profitable for several years, pinching it in your hand is a burden, since the Son of Heaven likes it, just give it to him, this deal, he is equivalent to getting what he wants without paying anything, which is a big profit.

After drinking the wine, Ji Yan put down the wine and said: "Since Wang Qing is so refreshing, the lives of these people will be left behind." He stopped here and stared at Wang Xu tightly, "However, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be forgiven, after all, the face of this king must be saved, and the military rules set cannot be discarded at will." ”
