Chapter 259: Disaster is coming
Originally, Wu Zetian wanted to threaten Cui Jing through a thorough investigation, which was nothing more than telling Cui Jing to let Cui Jing stop quickly, but he never expected that Cui Jing actually kept a hand, and he suddenly had eyebrows.
Wu Zetian couldn't help but be stunned.
In the past, Cui Jing she faced was naturally a sharp and introverted person, usually submissive, and had no decisiveness at all, but today, there is a needle in this cotton, which makes people have no idea where to start.
Wu Zetian said: "Oh? What clues did Cui Qing find? ”
Cui Jing said: "Your Majesty, last night, in Laifeng Tower, there were several Wei's children talking about Princess Taiping and Qin Shaoyou's private affairs, they talked about the affairs of the palace, and happened to be heard by the capital of Henan Mansion, such evil words, Henan Mansion can not be ignored, so last night, these people have been held, under some interrogation, only these people not only talked about the princess and Qin Shaoyou's personal relationship, but also said, Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping...... I had a baby in my belly......"
“……”
Suddenly...... The whole hall was in an uproar.
Just now, His Majesty also said that he would severely punish these people who tell the truth, but in the blink of an eye, Cui Jing made a report.
As for the children of the Wei family, when they get together to eat and drink, they have to discuss some things about right and wrong, this is human nature, and the hottest thing at the moment is Qin Shaoyou and Princess Taiping, as well as their Wei family itself, these Wei family members get together, usually in the mansion is held in their stomachs and dare not talk nonsense, but now they are finally released, of course, they have to talk about it.
People were drunk, and thought that Princess Taiping actually had an affair with Qin Shaoyou, and the people of the Wei family originally thought that it was quite festive, but suddenly their faces became gloomy, so naturally some people jumped out and scolded Qin Shaoyou, and after three glasses of wine, they were even more unstoppable. Everyone said some of the latest news, what Li Lingyue is pregnant, what is related to the surname Qin, what is said that Qin Shaoyou has been in and out of the princess's mansion recently, and the children of the Wei family can't help but feel a little sad and angry, once the conversation box is opened, they can't help it.
In these years, the atmosphere is certainly very open, especially when marrying princesses, how many princesses are flawless? But it's just that. Everyone knows this kind of thing, but they can't publicize it widely, and now, the ups and downs inside and outside Luoyang, the Wei family is looking at it with strange eyes, and it is naturally unhappy.
They would never have imagined that they would be drinking as freely as ever. But someone has already targeted them. When he was almost finished, suddenly a team of people rushed in, and then asked for people, and then took them to Henan Mansion. Henan Mansion has also been prepared for a long time, and the case has naturally become an iron case.
This hand is really smooth.
And now. Wu Zetian was angry with the people who spread gossip, but where would he have thought that Cui Jing had already prepared.
Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment. Cui Jing obviously came prepared, and there was a reserved plan for every step.
At this time, the imperial history who was gearing up was already impatient, and someone stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has also heard about this, Your Majesty is so kind to Wei, marry the princess, but Weishi does not know the report, but dislikes the princess, and abuses Her Royal Highness the princess like this, they ...... What's to be done? Her Royal Highness the Princess's daughter, has not yet arrived at the Wei family, in their eyes, she is already a medie, if she really marries, what should she do? ”
Immediately, there was another humanitarian: "What the sage said, the minister thinks it is true, if the rumors are not severely punished, it will not only damage the reputation of Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping, but also make the treacherous villain take advantage of it, so as to fan the flames, and at that time, it will be difficult to curb it." The ministers asked the saints to severely punish the unscrupulous people of the Wei family to set an example. ”
With a human beginning, how can everyone not know what this means.
Cui Jing has been the prime minister for so many years, and the Cui family ranks first among the seven families and five surnames, and the strength is the strongest, and Zheng Rong in the three provinces is the first to look forward to him, and Di Renjie, who is known as the name of integrity, has always been inseparable from Meng, Meng is not defocused, and his appeal is so strong.
Hundreds of officials flocked and impeached one after another, and some people were furious, saying: "Sage, it is really a great rebellion for Wei to despise Her Royal Highness the princess so much, if the princess marries Wei, won't she humiliate herself in the palace?" This marriage must not be. ”
"The princess must not give up when she is humiliated."
"The princess is married, not Gao Pan, just a small surname, dare to do this?"
Although Wei Xuanzhen did not serve as a servant, there are still some people in the Wei family who are officials, and there are barely a few who are qualified to participate in this court meeting.
Henan Mansion suddenly took people, from the beginning of taking people to the present, but in just a few hours, there was not enough time for the Wei family to react, and now to refute, or argue on the basis of reason, obviously it will only provoke public anger, they dare not make a mistake, and directly bow to the ground, looking like they are being killed.
Qin Shaoyou saw many ministers with red eyes, and some even made out-of-the-ordinary moves, he couldn't help but want to laugh, this era, in fact, is far from having too many etiquette norms like the dynasties of later generations, and every word and deed has clear texts, so in the main hall, there was a chaos, and the ministers who were pressed were gossiping, and even Shangguan Wan'er was in a hurry, so he hurriedly took a small hammer and knocked the golden bell in the apse.
Bell ...... Bell ......
The melodious bell rings, and the aftermath continues.
In the main hall, the order was restored a little.
Wu Zetian obviously felt a little tricky, and just said that she would be severely punished, since she said it, she was angry that the people of the Wei family were actually involved, so open-mouthed, and hated those people of the Wei family for being bold and daring to belittle their daughters.
But of course, her determination to marry her daughter to the Wei family has not changed, after all, this is a political marriage, of course, it is impossible to change because of these things, but before marrying, she severely punished a few people from the Wei family, it seems that ...... There's always something that doesn't go right.
But now, it's really a bit difficult to ride a tiger.
Wu Zetian hesitated slightly, but saw Di Renjie stand up and said sharply: "Sage, shouldn't such an unscrupulous disciple be severely punished?" If you don't pay attention to it, where is this going to put the court! ”
This sentence is really reasonable.
It's really to blame, Wu Zetian can't blame Di Renjie, Di Renjie is not wrong, someone insults the palace, shouldn't it be maintained? If Wu Zetian came to punish people like Di Renjie for this, who would be willing to stand up when someone insulted the palace in the future.
Wu Zetian couldn't resist this pressure after all, she said sharply: "Go down to the Imperial History Terrace, investigate strictly, and punish severely!" ”
This sentence was categorical, so everyone said: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
Qin Shaoyou stood in the middle of it, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the overall situation has been decided!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
An imperial discussion, first earth-shattering opening, but then the content of the discussion was lackluster, an hour later, the ministers dispersed, Wu Zetian was in a very bad mood, she coughed a few times, and sat down in the apse with the support of Shangguan Wan'er, Shangguan Wan'er stood silently beside her. Wu Zetian took a sip of tea, then breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally said slowly: "Cui Jing is really powerful, quiet as a virgin, and moving like a rabbit." Ay...... Once upon a time, he was a kind person, but in the blink of an eye, he called for wind and rain. ”
Shangguan Wan'er pursed her lips and just listened quietly.
Wu Zetian's face didn't have too much anger, sighed, and then continued: "But I can't blame him, I can't do it, at this juncture, this new monarch is going to ascend the throne, I'm afraid it's not far away, their Cui family, such a big family business, has gone through several dynasties and has not declined, at this time, I am arranging the back road, isn't he Cui Jing also arranging?" Which of the hundred officials in the court who is red-eyed does not have his own abacus? If you don't fight at this time, when will it wait? But it's that Qin Shaoyou...... It's weird, but lately it's been too quiet, but I don't know why. ”
Speaking of Qin Shaoyou, Shangguan Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled: "He's building a city." ”
"Building a city?" Wu Zetian couldn't help laughing, she suddenly felt that Qin Shaoyou was a little cute, at this time, it was the time of the wind and clouds, everyone was trying their best for the honor and disgrace of the next ten or twenty years, and even Cui Jing, who was usually calm as water, had to go into hand-to-hand combat, but this Qin Shaoyou actually buried himself in being a turtle building a city.
She thought for a while, and then said: "Everyone has their own means, he loves to build cities, so let him build cities, as for the matter of the court, those rebellious Wei children, you have to take good care of them, and see what kind of responsibility the Yushitai will draw up, since I said that it is serious, of course it should be serious, but it is still ...... Open the net and save a life. ”
Wu Zetian hadn't responded yet, but at this time, a eunuch came in in a hurry, this eunuch seemed very anxious, and as soon as he came in, he panted and bowed down, and said, "Sage, Wei Xuanzhen asks to see." ”
Wei Xuanzhen......
Wu Zetian didn't have much affection for this person, she and the Wei family were just using each other, so there was no wave on her face, she just said lightly: "Call in." ”
