Chapter 570: Small Punishment and Big Commandment
"Don't dare to blame? Hey, who do you want to blame? ”
The old man made it clear that he didn't want Hongqing to pass the pass easily, but when he heard his cruel laugh, he asked relentlessly, and it was a posture of beating the water dogs.
Who's to blame? I'll take it, the old man is going to be ruthless, it's not good!
Seeing that the tone of the old man's question was getting colder and colder, Rao is Hongqing has always been bold, and at this time, he can't help but be afraid, there is no side, just wantonly provoke disputes in the court, it is already a serious crime, if you count the instigation of the elder brother to fight, it will be enough for Hongqing to go to the Zongren Mansion to drink tea, if you really want to add a false word to deceive the king, yes, the Zongren Mansion does not have to go, and he is ready to be raised in captivity.
"If you go back to Huang Mafa, your grandson doesn't have the idea of being too presumptuous, everything is not a place, it should be your grandson's, then your grandson will bear it."
If you can prevaricate, Hongqing naturally wants to catch someone to make a scapegoat, the problem is that this is just a delusion, if you really prevaricate, the consequences are only one, that is, crime on crime, such a stupid thing, Hongqing will not do it, even if he knows that this time he may not escape, Hongqing can only grit his teeth and admit it.
"Bear? Can you afford it? Well? ”
As soon as Hongqing's words came out, the cruel smile on the old man's face suddenly became a little more obvious, and he asked again and again without mercy.
"Poof!"
As soon as the old man had such a seizure, Hongqing really couldn't stand still, and he knelt on the ground in a hurry, but his teeth were clenched, and he neither begged for mercy nor said much to justify, just knelt quietly.
"Anyway, how should I punish you, huh?"
The old man didn't get angry anymore, but he didn't plan to spare Hongqing so lightly, but after seeing that the old man looked at Hongqing coldly for a while, he asked a question slowly.
"The grandson is at the mercy of the Emperor's law."
Since it is already difficult to escape, Hongqing is also a bachelor, neither justifying nor begging for mercy, but putting on a posture of admitting and accepting punishment with a sincere face.
"Okay, I'll punish you for a year, can you be convinced?"
The old man didn't go any further, his brows raised, and he had already issued a ticket.
"Ah......h
Hearing the results of such punishments, Hongqing couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, not how heavy this punishment is, but it's really light enough, no side, for those children of the Heavenly Family who don't have much extra money to speak of, a year of punishment can be a big crime, but Hongqing is very rich, although there is more than 20,000 taels of silver for a year, but it is just a drizzle, it is really not a big deal.
"What? You have objections, huh? ”
As soon as Hongqing's shocked and inexplicable appearance came out, the old man's brows immediately furrowed, and he seemed to snort coldly in extreme displeasure.
"The grandson doesn't dare, and the grandson admits punishment."
Objection? That is self-defeating, to be able to retreat under the anger of the old man, Hongqing felt that he was lucky enough, how dare he have any objections, hurriedly kowtowed, and replied respectfully.
"That's fine, Ming'er has invited the guilty man from the last one, let's go."
The old man obviously didn't want to talk any more, and as soon as the punishment was completed, he immediately issued an order to expel the customer.
"The grandson obeys, and the grandson retires."
As soon as the old man let go, Hongqing didn't dare to postpone any longer, so he hurriedly kowtowed, and withdrew from Ruijingxuan, leaving the garden in a trance all the way.
"Little prince, the prince has an explanation, saying that he will let you go home as soon as you leave the garden."
Hongqing had just left Changchun Garden, and Li Minxing, who had been waiting outside for a long time, immediately led a group of guards to meet him, and hurriedly reported a word.
"Well, go home!"
Hongqing was in a bad mood, he was too lazy to speak, lowered his head, snorted, and then walked quickly to the carriage parked aside, and got into the carriage with a huff, leaning heavily on the brocade cushion, but felt that the vest was cold, and then he realized that his back was already soaked with sweat......
"Your Majesty."
Two flowers bloomed, one for each branch, not to mention how Hongqing suffered from gains and losses in the carriage, but said that he had just left Ruijingxuan for a short time, and saw Fang Bao, who was dressed in cloth, had slowly walked out of the apse, bowed to the old man, and called out in a peaceful voice.
"Hmmm......"
The old man didn't say anything special, just let out a long breath.
"Huh."
The old man didn't speak, and Fang Bao just chuckled, without saying much, just standing quietly.
"I can't finish everything, I have to leave some thoughts for those who come after me, that's it, don't talk about this, I hope that bastard boy can understand my painstaking heart."
After sitting silently for a while, the old man suddenly smiled to himself, shook his head slightly, and let out a sigh of emotion.
"Your Majesty."
Fang Bao did not comment on the old man's words, but simply praised the words.
"Prepare an edict."
The old man glanced at Fang Bao meaningfully, but he didn't say anything more about the past, but waved his hand, and gave an order with some interest.
"Rotten and obedient."
Fang Bao responded respectfully, slowly walked to the side of a few people, picked up the wolf hair that was resting on the pen stand, dipped it in ink, and made a gesture of listening to the instructions with a pen, but the old man had not opened the golden mouth for a long time, and the atmosphere in the Xuan couldn't help but be weird......
"Qing'er is back, how is it going?"
In the study room in the inner courtyard of Prince Cheng's mansion, the third master, who had just returned to the mansion, was explaining the situation of today's meeting with Chen and Li, the two major strategists, and suddenly saw Hongqing turn out from behind the screen out of the corner of his eye, and immediately stopped talking, and without waiting for Hongqing to see the salute, he couldn't wait to ask.
"That my father may know that this is the ......"
Hongqing has been thinking all the way, but still can't figure out which play the old man is singing, this time listening to the third master asked, there will be nothing to hide, as soon as he bowed, he has already described the scene of the monarch and the minister playing the right thing alone, until the third master's face changed, cold sweat couldn't stop flowing wildly, obviously he was also frightened by the old man's thunderbolt, until Hongqing said the result of the punishment, the third master let out a long breath.
"In this case, it is only a year's fine, and there is nothing to be left behind?"
Although the third master is not a wise man, he still has self-knowledge, how can he not know that he can have such a status now, it is all Hongqing who supports the overall situation behind him, if Hongqing falls, the third master really doesn't know how to deal with the extremely complex court fight, because of this, even if Hongqing has clearly said the result of the punishment, but the third master still can't rest assured, and hurriedly said something to confirm.
"It should be, Huang Marfa doesn't seem to have the intention of delving."
Hongqing himself was not sure whether there would be a follow-up disposal, and in the face of the third master's questioning, he could only give an uncertain answer.
"This ......, Master, Zicheng, do you two have any advice on this?"
The third master was obviously stunned by the old man's sudden action, so he smacked his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he had no choice but to throw the problem to the two strategists Chen and Li, hoping that the two could tell the reason.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates think that Your Majesty's small punishment and big commandment should be a warning, and it must be dealt with carefully."
Li Minquan's reaction was very quick, and as soon as the third master's voice fell, he had already replied, and what he said was right, but it was only a superficial article, and there was no substantive connotation.
"Warning? What does the Emperor have to warn about? ”
The third master's heart was originally panicked, but when he heard Li Minquan say this, not only did he not feel at ease, but he became a little more nervous, and he hurriedly asked.
"Lord Mingjian, Your Majesty is getting older, and there is no enterprising heart, what you want is to keep the evening festival from losing, and you don't want to see the possibility of chaos in the court, this time the Sacred Heart dictatorship, forcibly suppressing the renewal of the armament, is to warn the brothers not to start disputes again, the intentions are undoubtedly good, but ......, heh, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, Your Majesty is afraid that it will be completely in vain, however, in terms of Prince Cheng's Mansion, it is indeed appropriate to be stable, but it has not touched the fundamentals, and what can be tolerated is also tolerated, and I want to come to the Holy One is also the same meaning."
Li Minquan dared to rush to speak, naturally he was thoughtful, and when he saw that the third master was at a loss, he couldn't help laughing, and explained in detail with confidence.
"I see, ......well, Master, in your opinion, it should be so?"
As soon as Li Minquan explained this, the third master understood, and his uneasy heart eased down a little, but Wu Zi didn't dare to be completely relieved, and asked Old Master Chen cautiously.
"What can be tolerated, let it be tolerated, what cannot be tolerated, still can't be tolerated, the prince only needs to start from the righteousness of the society, there is nothing that can not be done, if you look forward and backward, it is easy to be taken advantage of by the villain, as for Your Majesty, I think it can be understood, otherwise, it will not be so easy to let the little prince pass the pass."
Old Master Chen's views are obviously different from Li Minquan's, not only do he not advocate that the third master retreat everywhere, but he thinks that he should have the courage to act and dare to act.
"This ......"
The third master's nature is a little weaker, and because of this, he actually agrees with Li Minquan's safe proposition, but he can't help but hesitate when he hears Old Master Chen's words.
"This is just a small test of the ear, what Your Majesty wants to see is whether the prince has the courage under pressure, there is nothing strange at all, knock is beating, how can the saint not know that the elder brother has killed the red eyes in order to win the heir, how can he die down because of a beating, what should be, what should the prince be, otherwise, the sacred heart may not be the same!"
Old Master Chen sneered, and pointed out the crux of the problem in a firm tone, which immediately made the third master's face change wildly, and the beads of sweat on his forehead rolled down like pearls with broken threads, and he didn't say a complete sentence for a long time......
