Chapter 11: The True Dragon Abyss (2)
Outside, the situation is unpredictable. First, all the prince's disciples and those who accompanied the army were tried one by one and all executed. There were also a number of officials with a rank of more than 500 stones, such as the young Fu Shide, Ren An, who wanted to sit and watch the success or failure, and Tian Ren, who let the prince go, be beheaded. Some people could not grasp the holy will, severely tortured the so-called princeling party, and wantonly fabricated charges to expand the scope of the impact, thinking that it was very meritorious. There are also some people who take the opportunity to frame them and do everything they can. In this way, tens of thousands of subjects inside and outside Chang'an City were connected, and only three or four out of ten of the big families could be saved, and those servants, farmers, and small traders and peddlers who were originally attached to the big families gradually lost their livelihoods and fled with their families. There are often flocks of black crows, competing to peck at the corpses of death row prisoners, and wild dogs dig out the dead bodies and eat them.
The county prison under Bingji's rule became a haven, and not a single prisoner implicated in witchcraft was beheaded, and no one was even harshly reprimanded by the jailers. Bingji even tried every possible way to buy food and meat, insisted on visiting the baby every day, was warm and considerate to the baby, asked the prison doctor for diagnosis and treatment when he was sick, and bought the medicine that was not available in the prison from the pharmacy, and the baby gradually had vitality.
The night darkness is white.
One day, the third elder in charge of education in Huguan County, Ling Humao, wrote with the determination to die: "The minister who hears the father is still the sky, the mother is still the earth, and the son is still all things." Therefore, the balance of heaven and earth, the harmony of yin and yang, and the abundance of things; Fathers love mothers, and sons in the family are filial. If yin and yang are not in harmony, everything will be injured; If the father and son are not in harmony, the family will be lost. Therefore, if the father is not the father, the son is not the son, and if the king is not the king, the minister is not the minister. Yu Shun, the former one, is filial piety, but not in the dark; Filial piety has been slandered, Birch has been exiled, flesh and blood are close to each other, and father and son are suspicious. Who? Born of destruction. From the view, the son is all filial piety, and the father is not observed, the current crown prince is the heir of the Han Dynasty, inheriting the inheritance of eternity, the weight of the ancestors, and the son of the emperor.
Jiang Chong, the man in cloth, the subordinate of Lu Yan, His Majesty used it obviously, and the order of the Supreme to force the crown prince, decorated treacherous, and the evil was wrong, and it was blocked by the road of relatives. The prince is not allowed to see him when he enters, and when he retreats, he is trapped in the chaos of the ministers, and he dies alone, and he can't bear to be angry, so he gets up and kills, and flees in fear. "Poem" says: "Camp green flies, stop at the basket; A gentleman, untrustworthy and slanderous; slanderous and reckless, and the four countries are in turmoil. 'The former Jiang Chong slandered and killed Prince Zhao, and the world heard of it, and his crime was inappropriate. His Majesty did not examine it, he was deeper than the prince, he was furious, raised a large army and begged for it, the three princes were self-generals, the wise men did not dare to speak, the debaters did not dare to speak, and the ministers stole and pained. The ministers heard that Zixu was loyal and forgot his name, and he was more benevolent than he left his body, and the loyal ministers wholeheartedly ignored the punishment of Chen Qiyu, and the ambition was to Kuang Jun'an Sheji. "Poetry" cloud: 'Take the other and throw the jackal.' 'Only Your Majesty is relieved and consoled, and does not suffer from the prince's wrongdoing, and urgently dismisses the armor soldiers, so that the prince will die for a long time. The minister is invincible, and once he is killed, he will wait for the crime to be established. ”
After Liu Che read it, his heart was even worse. "Cangtian, if he is arrested, as long as he admits his mistake, I will forgive him and continue to make him the prince!" Every morning and evening, Liu Che would close his eyes and pray.
Maybe Liu Che's prayer was heard by God, and it didn't take long for the news of the prince to come back, but he didn't come back and admit his mistake. What Liu Che heard was: "The prince fled to Huxian, went out to sell shoes with the peasants, was discovered by the local officers and soldiers, when the officers and soldiers chased him, he hid in the stove house, the prince struggled to resist arrest, and actually hanged himself, the stove house somehow caught fire, and the prince and the emperor and grandson were burned beyond recognition." ”
Liu Che was stunned for a moment, and dark red blood slowly oozed from the corners of his mouth. He forcibly suppressed his tears and deliberately didn't think about the prince, but the prince's figure was still dangling in front of him, sometimes a child, sometimes an adult. After a while, she said in a milky voice: "Father, you lie down, I want to ride a big horse." After a while, he said with a serious face: "Father, the sons and daughters think that they should be rewarded more and punished less, and they should be lightly punished." After a while, he wailed in the fire: "Father, it hurts, and the sons and sons hurt so much!" Since then, Liu Che has not laughed until his death.
Liu Che looked at the world of the Han family again, it can really be said that the country is shaken, the people are not happy, and they are extremely remorseful. It didn't take long for another ancestor to write to Lang Tian Qianqiu, who was the tomb of Gaozu, risking his death: "When the minister hears that his son makes his father's soldiers, he should be flogged; The son of heaven has killed people by mistake, why not! The minister tasted a dream of a pulsatilla to teach the minister. ”
Tian Qianqiu is just an unpopular petty official who guards Gaoling, but his book is at the right time, and it deeply pierces Liu Che's heart. Liu Che felt that the time had come, so he summoned Tingwei to re-investigate the matter of witchcraft, Tingwei also knew what Liu Che meant, and now that someone has picked the head, he is no longer afraid of anything. There is also an insider who makes Guo Sui see that Su Wen will definitely die, so he wants to take the opportunity to make meritorious service and secretly play the Son of Heaven, Prime Minister Liu Quyu and his wife and the second division general Li Guangli formed a group, and also set up an altar at home to pray for the early death of the Son of Heaven, with King Liu Ji of Lichangyi as the emperor. Liu Che had a premonition that the king of Changyi was about to move, so he asked Tingwei to secretly investigate carefully, and Guo Sui's words were really true.
When the recital was presented to the desk, Liu Che looked at it again and again. He saw the crown prince standing on the edict and asked him: "Father, why would you rather believe a villain like Xin Jiangchong than me?" Are you really trying to abolish me? Why did you force your mother to commit suicide? Do you know how vicious Liu Quyu is in his use of soldiers? ”
Liu Che said silently in his heart, "It's all to blame, it's all to blame, but I never really planned to abolish your crown prince, I just wanted to cut off some of your relatives after you succeeded to the throne, and I didn't mean to let the queen commit suicide. There is no distinction between loyalty and treachery for his father, thinking that Liu Quyu is loyal, Jiang Chong is upright, Li Guangli is brave, and Su Wen is cautious, his father is wrong, and his father is a faint king! According to my son, I have avenged my father for you! After thinking about it, he said with a gloomy face: "Spread the decree, Jiang Chong is extremely sinister, his people are dead, punish his whole clan!" Su Wen has served me for many years, with a honey-bellied sword, the best at framing and burning him directly! Liu Quyu and his wife cursed me with witchcraft, and the crime was extremely evil, the male waist beheaded Dongshi, and the female head Huayang Street. Li Guangli had two hearts, remembering that his military merits were very high, and he led troops outside, sent his wife and children to prison, and immediately recalled them, and when they returned, their wives and children could be spared death, and if they did not come back, their wives and children would be given death. Those who forced the prince to die in the lake were all beheaded. In addition, he often built a Si** in the lake and returned to the Wangsi Terrace to summon the soul of the prince. Liu Cheqiang held back his tears and said the last sentence.
The heart of heaven is really unpredictable, yesterday it was still a sword and a soldier, and today it is compassionate. Those who are in the limelight and don't know how to converge are dead; The sinister and cunning one who puts an arrow in the back is dead; Those who sit on the other side and wait for success or failure are dead; He who fell into the well and died in a vicious way. Nothing can escape the words of the Son of Heaven. It can really be said that "I am guilty of heaven and have nothing to pray for." ”
