Chapter 106: Working Hard (1)
Lan Yi looked back and saw that a man dressed as a servant was going crazy, and the guards of the Rui Wangfu came quickly, and the man didn't go crazy for long before he was pressed to the ground.
When such a thing happened on a happy day, Wei Changyin's face couldn't help but darken, and he walked slowly and asked, "Raise your head and let me see who you are." ”
The guards pulled him by the hair, and a slave raised a wind lantern to come up, and what caught his eye was a face that had been weathered and sunken in his eye sockets, obviously this man was not a slave of the Rui Wangfu, but a hard-working man who was running for food and clothing.
Wei Changyin asked inexplicably, "I don't know you, how did you get in?" Trouble here, don't you want to die? ”
They all thought that this person was going to get along with Wei Changyin, but who knew that he knocked his head on the ground and said loudly: "This must be His Royal Highness King Rui, right?" Your Royal Highness, please call the shots for the villain, the villain's mother and daughter are unjustly dead! ”
Wei Changyin was stunned, "What? If you have a grievance, you should go to the drum at the entrance of the yamen and make trouble with me, what's the matter? ”
The man cried a little, smashed his fist on the ground, and shouted: "It's not that the villain doesn't go to beat the drum, it's really that person is in a high position, even if he beats the drum, there is no place to complain, beg Rui to pity the villain to His Highness, let the villain cry!" ”
Wei Changyin was hesitating, Wei Changyuan was already very impatient, and frowned, "On a good day like today, where do you come from, you dare to be presumptuous." The Sixth Emperor Brother is really good-tempered, if this was shelved in the palace, he would have been beaten out a long time ago. After a pause, he added, "No, such a person can't enter the Qi Palace." ”
"The Qi Palace's Mansion is heavily guarded, so it is naturally much better than mine." Wei Changyin responded lightly, lowered his head and asked: "What grievances are there, let's talk about it, there are so many people here, if it is really a case of injustice, you can also go up to heaven to hear it." ”
Wei Changyuan couldn't help but interrupt, "Sixth Emperor Brother, you are too conniving, a subordinate who doesn't know what identity is, disrupted your big wedding and damaged your face, I'm afraid that the Sixth Brother and Sister will be unhappy, according to what I said, just go out and finish the matter, otherwise the world still thinks that Rui Wangfu is a place, and you can enter and exit at will." ”
"I see that he is a common man, not a 'subordinate'." Wei Changyin smiled, "As for what kind of place Rui Wangfu is, it doesn't matter what others say, I have the final say, my wife has the final say, she is the most gentle and kind person, how can she suppress the unjust case in front of your eyes, the second emperor brother can rest assured." ”
Then he motioned to the guard next to him to let the man go first, and said gently, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”
The man was grateful, kowtowed again, and then said, "The villain's name is Zhang Laiba, and he is a tailor in a small village in the north of the capital. ”
"Sure enough, it's not from the palace, no wonder you look at this life." Wei Changyin nodded, "You continue." ”
Zhang Laiba's voice was very loud, and he seemed to be full of pain, and he vented at this moment, "Our Zhang family has been tailors for generations, the daughters-in-law and children married by villains, and the daughters born have all learned the craftsmanship of villains, and the money earned by the family is enough to eat and spend." Originally, everything was fine, but I never expected that in the winter of last year, the villain's family was taken away by the government to make cotton clothes......"
Speaking of which, everyone had already understood what he was going to say, and they all threw their eyes on Wei Changyuan intentionally or unintentionally, Wei Changyuan sneered and said, "Zhang Laiba, you can say what you should say, and if you don't say it, you'd better swallow it in your stomach." ”
Such an obvious threat, only a son like Wei Changyuan, who is favored by the emperor, dares to say it in public, but Zhang Laiba actually risked his life, puffed out a breath, and said loudly: "At this point, is there anything else that should be said and not said?" After the villain's family was taken away, they were divided into different places to work day and night, the villain's daughter-in-law was beaten and persecuted because of physical exhaustion, and the villain's daughter saw that her mother couldn't hold on, and had a conflict with the steward, and finally the two hugged each other and were beaten to death by those who killed a thousand knives......"
The timid ladies all let out a burst of exclamation, and some couldn't help but say, "This is really too cruel......
Wei Changyuan took a step forward and waved his hand, "Sewing cotton clothes is for the soldiers guarding the border gates, all of them are voluntary, I don't know where such a person came out of nowhere, tarnish my reputation!" Take people down, torture them, and be sure to find out who is behind them! ”
At the moment, in addition to the princes and family members, there are also many official eunuchs, Wei Changyuan gives orders in front of the master, and Wei Changyin's face is also a little unbearable.
Seeing that the entourage of the Qi Palace's entourage took two steps forward, Wei Changyin also stepped forward, blocking in front of everyone, looking at Wei Changyuan's gaze, a little indifferent, "Second Emperor Brother, this is my house in the end." ”
Wei Changyuan was stunned and asked, "What do you mean by this?" Want to get along with me? ”
Wei Changyin said: "The Qing is self-purifying, since the second emperor brother thinks that this Lai Ba is tarnishing your reputation, why not listen to him, not to mention that there are so many people here, so many pairs of eyes are watching, you have to avoid suspicion somewhat, if you really want to take people away, you shouldn't come from the Qi Palace." He turned to look at Zhang Laiba, "Tell me, what you said, is there any evidence?" ”
"Yes, of course." Zhang Lai said, "Not only the villain's family, but also many people died because of being a cotton coat, even if the villain is lying, it is impossible to pull so many people to lie with the villain." The villain fought for his life and sued Wang Caokan's life! ”
Wei Changyin frowned, "Since there are many witnesses, and there are also a lot of people here to testify, this matter must be investigated, and the second emperor brother can't be splashed with such dirty water in vain." ”
Wei Changyuan stared at Wei Changyin, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this younger brother who would never come forward, and wanted to be ruthless and take people away directly, but after all, he wanted to be face-saving and didn't want to make a big fuss.
After a moment of hesitation, Wei Changyin had already ordered, "The matter has become a big problem, find two people to bring a letter to my father and the concubine, and see how this Lai Ba should be handled." ”
Wei Changyuan wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, he estimated that he couldn't stop it, so he stood aside with his hands in his hands, in short, there was Concubine Ying, and he would never let him have an accident.
However, there is no need for Wei Changyin to take the words with someone, the emperor in the palace immediately learned about such a thing from the people he arranged, and the people of Yuwangfu walked half the way, and met Gonggong Liu and the guards behind him. After respectfully taking the person to the palace, Gonggong Liu bowed and asked directly what happened.
Wei Changyin neatly retold Zhang Laiba's accusation, and Gonggong Liu lowered his eyebrows and said: "The slave understands, the emperor means that the person who makes trouble at the wedding banquet of His Royal Highness King Rui can be handed over to the slave to take back to the palace for interrogation, for the sake of the dignity of you and Princess Rui, such a bastard thing, the punishment will definitely be punished, but no matter why he is making trouble, he must understand it and give an explanation to the people." ”
The chief of the guard bowed his head and said very politely: "I don't know what to do, my father-in-law came at the right time, please take the person away immediately." ”
Gonggong Liu said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness got married today, but something like this happened, the emperor means that His Royal Highness is wronged, and Princess Rui is also wronged. ”
Wei Changyin hurriedly bowed his hand, "Please let my father-in-law bring a message to my father to know: the sons and daughters do not have any grievances, and the princess will never dare to have them. ”
Gonggong Liu nodded and said gently: "His Royal Highness King Rui is the most polite, and the slave will go back." He raised his hand, "Tie the man and take him away." ”
Then he saluted the princes present, turned and left.
At the banquet that followed, everyone was not interested, especially Wei Changyuan, who was anxious and left the table early.
He wanted to ask Concubine Ying if the situation was serious, but the people in front of the palace gate were strictly guarded, and they were stunned to say that they had been locked and no one was allowed to enter or leave the pass.
Wei Changyuan was panicked in his heart, even if the palace door was locked, those people had to rush to help Changfu Palace, and now he has not fallen out of favor, and the guards and eunuchs will not immediately bow down and step on the low, it is estimated that the emperor issued a strict order, just to prevent him from joining forces with Ying Guifei.
Wei Changheng accompanied him on this trip, and at this moment he could only comfort: "You are the most favored son of your father, not to mention that there are four emperor brothers on the side to help speak, what is Zhang Laiba, and his wife and daughter, but a few cheap lives, if you die, you will die, in the end, the soldiers at the border will thank the emperor for missing you, and the father will not really care." ”
Wei Changyuan said fiercely: "Diao Min, it's really Diao Min, how dare you have such courage!" Ruiwang's Mansion is also useless, and he doesn't look at what day, so he puts people in! ”
Wei Changheng said: "The Sixth Emperor Brother may indeed have omissions, but he has always not been involved in other people's affairs, although he has received the favor of the queen before, but the more he reads like this, the more he is stupid, the more he will not rush to praise the Third Emperor Brother and oppose us at this juncture, I think, this matter has nothing to do with the Sixth Emperor Brother, I am afraid that Zhang Lai Ba is still instigated by the Gong Palace, so he will suddenly make trouble." ”
"Prince Gong's Mansion." Wei Changyuan narrowed his eyes, "But this time, the two in Prince Gong's Mansion didn't even make a sound, and they really picked themselves clean." ”
Wei Changheng also felt that it was tricky, but there was really no good way at this moment, so he thought about it and said, "It's better to let the Fourth Emperor Brother help, he didn't participate in these things at all, and he still had some face in front of his father." When the time comes, I won't say that you are right, just say that there is indeed a mistake, but the brothers bear it together, and it will be like this for the soldiers who are guarding, the starting point is good, and there is a deep brotherhood, and the father must have been able to expose it. ”
Wei Changyuan pondered for a while, and suddenly said, "Go to King Yu's Mansion." ”
This night was destined to make many people unable to sleep well.
On the second day, after the deliberations in the Emperor Qianming Palace, he specially called several sons who had already participated in the deliberations to his side, and asked bluntly: "Changyuan, what else do you have to argue about Zhang Laiba?" ”
