Chapter 12: The Granting of Capital Punishment
Hearing the above words, Li Yu's heart couldn't help but be relieved, and he hurriedly bowed down and replied, "Thank you, father." ”
Although Li Yu's soul is not a real Southern Tang figure, he also knows that he should answer like this on this occasion.
At least, when I watched TV series in my previous life, I had seen this kind of dialogue.
Zhou Zong had also gotten up at this moment, "Your Majesty Xie." ”
"Congjia, where did you go during this time? If you don't study hard in your own mansion, where are you messing around? The deep voice above asked with a little majesty.
From Jia Nai is Li Yu's original name, of course Li Yu knows, how could Li Yu, who is familiar with history, be asked in such a place?
"Back to my father's words, my son went to travel and wrote some crooked poems, and most importantly, I visited some Buddhist holy places, praying that my dynasty can rule the world, and my father can live forever." Li Yu replied,
When Lord Tang heard Li Yu say this, he couldn't help but laugh, nodded and said, "Yes, you are very filial, but I don't know why you entered the palace with Zhou Situ?" ”
Hearing Li Jing ask this, Li Yu's heart sank, he knew that the royal affairs were not the same as ordinary people's families, and an ordinary question might have infinite mysteries in it.
"Erchen's return to Kyoto coincided with Lord Zhou's invitation to all the adults in the court to drink tea, and Erchen liked tea, so he went to his mansion to disturb and drank a few cups of tea and came back." Li Yu replied very calmly, but his face was intoxicated by drinking good tea.
Until this moment, Li Yu didn't raise his head, and looked squarely at what his current cheap dad was like sitting on it.
And his answer seemed to make Tang Zhongzhu Li Jing very satisfied, he coughed lightly, "Nonsense, adults taste tea, what are you doing with it, is there less good tea in your house?" Don't mess around like this next time. ”
"Yes, Erchen remembered." Li Yu immediately replied, he knew that this was not a reprimand at all, but a very tactful maintenance.
"Zhou Situ, you just left, why did you ask to see the widow?" Li Jing turned to Zhou Zong and asked.
"If you go back to Your Majesty, the minister just returned to the mansion, but he saw someone searching the mansion, and I heard that it was someone from the Terracotta Division who came to search for the murderer, and the minister naturally tried his best to cooperate, but unexpectedly, one of them broke into the boudoir of the eldest daughter of the minister." Zhou Zong said in a sassy manner, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Hearing Zhou Zong say this, Li Jing, who was sitting upright, couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't imagine that the home of the first member of the dynasty would be searched without his own order, and he also broke into his daughter's boudoir, what kind of person is this, with such courage.
Li Jing was about to open his mouth to ask, but unexpectedly, Zhou Zong fell to the ground with a "plop" at this moment, and cried loudly.
Li Jing didn't know what he was doing, but he was searched, although he broke into his daughter's boudoir, but as a product of the dynasty, wouldn't this kind of behavior make people laugh?
Li Jing turned his gaze to Li Yu, and his mind couldn't turn around! Before Li Jing could ask, Li Yu on the side was an interface.
He bowed and saluted, and said respectfully to his cheap Lao Tzu above, "Father, the son and son also shouted grievances to Lord Zhou." If it was just a search, but the sergeants forcibly broke into Miss Zhou's boudoir, where Miss Zhou was bathing.
And when they broke in, Miss Zhou's maid had already told her that she was bathing in the house and had not come out, but the soldiers who searched did not listen to the persuasion and forcibly broke in. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Zong's cry couldn't help but be higher, as if he thought of the sad place, and the crying was even worse than just now, which made Li Jing, who was sitting on it, have a big headache.
At this time, Li Yu was standing aside with some amusement in his heart, waiting to see more exciting excitement.
"Zhou Situ, is what Congjia said right?" Li Jing's face was angry, but now he was trying his best to suppress it. And seeing Zhou Zong like this, he was a little helpless, although Li Jing was said to be the emperor immediately, and he was not afraid of conquering the territory, but for the man who cried, he felt a little tricky.
Moreover, when he heard Li Yu say this, his heart couldn't help but be on fire.
In terms of official position, Da Situ is equivalent to the prime minister in the court, and his power is so great that it can be said that one person is above ten thousand people, and now not only is his home raided, but his daughter is broken into in the bath, such a humiliating thing, no wonder he hides his face and cries.
The more Li Jing thought about it, the more angry he became, he slapped the table angrily, and said angrily, "What is this doing?" Who gave him the right to search Zhou Situ's home? ”
Li Yu bowed his head and was silent at the moment, he felt that it was not suitable to speak at this time, and there was no need to speak.
When Zhou Zong heard Li Jing ask, he stopped his grief for a moment and choked up, "The people of the Terracotta Division said that even if they don't have a will, they can be searched, and the little girl also asked them about their will, but they still entered the house to search on the grounds that they could still search without a will, knowing that the little girl was bathing. ”
Most of what Zhou Zong said is true, but the section on the will is not so accurate, and even has the meaning of adding oil and vinegar.
However, no matter what, the current situation is very clear, and in the absence of a will, the Terracotta Division broke into the Zhou Mansion to search without authorization, which was not right.
When Li Jing heard this, his voice raised an octave again, slapped the table hard, and said angrily, "How bold are the people of the Terracotta Division? Do you want to rebel? Whose lives did they take, and they were so unscrupulous. ”
Zhou Zong was still sobbing at the moment, and he choked up, "I don't know. ”
In one sentence, push the responsibility cleanly, you are the master, you come to check, anyway, I have been wronged, you can watch it.
Li Yu watched coldly from the sidelines, and sighed with emotion in his heart, he really deserved to be an old fox, powerful to a certain extent.
When Li Jing heard Zhou Zong say this, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he understood a little in his heart, but he remained silent and immediately shouted outside, "Someone, send me Zhao Chenxiang." ”
The eunuch on duty outside agreed, then turned around and went to pass on.
Zhou Zong recovered from crying at this moment, but his voice was still choked, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhao is in a high position after all, considering the overall situation, please don't embarrass Lord Zhao too much, but the person who entered the house needs to be severely punished." ”
Zhou Zong's move can be regarded as retreating as advance, which is an understatement, but it is sad and sad, so that Li Jing has to make decisions for him, and he also feels pity.
If a father and his daughter are wronged, how can she not be sad at such times?
"Aiqing, how do you want to deal with this matter in your heart, you might as well talk about it." Li Jing frowned, Zhou Zong, who looked very peaceful on weekdays, was in tears at this moment, which made him feel uncomfortable for no reason.
Zhou Zong was promoted and appointed by him, Li Jing's father, Li Sheng, the ancestor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, demoted Zhou Zong to a higher rank and demoted him back then, and he was re-employed after Li Jing ascended the throne, and the relationship between him and Zhou Zong's monarchs and ministers was very tacit, if not, how could Zhou Zong have today's prominent status.
Today, Zhou Zong has been wronged like this, how can Li Jing sit idly by?
"Your Majesty, I have no right to say the rest of the Terracotta Division, and I can't say it, since it is an official matter, Your Majesty has his own conclusion, as for the person who broke into the little girl's room, I would like to ask Your Majesty to grant capital punishment." Zhou Zong raised his head, his eyes flashed, and he said word by word.
