Chapter 191: Sudden Attack (2)
However, Wei Changze said: "The three emperor brothers are good friends with the adults of the household department, even if there is any dirty thing, they can also think of a way to settle the account, this is originally a ghost trick, and there is no need to take it out at all, and the son naturally has other evidence." ”
In this way, everyone was in an uproar, and the brothers' wall was completely thrown on the table, and the emperor couldn't hold it on his face, so he only said that since the inside story could not be found out for a while, he would retreat from the court first, and then he would send someone to make it clear.
Originally, this was to leave dignity for all the princes' mansions, but Wei Changyuan stood up again and said: "Please listen to the words of my father: if you don't find out directly at this time, when the third emperor brother smooths out the accounts and picks up the silver taels of corruption and bribery, the evidence will be nowhere to be found, and I ask my father to immediately order to raid Prince Gong's mansion." ”
The emperor couldn't help but be furious, regardless of whether Wei Changjue had filled his pockets or not, the brothers of this mother and compatriots, looking at it, were really forming a party for personal gain, and he wanted to refuse, but his eyes suddenly turned black, accompanied by dizziness in his brain, his legs were weak and he couldn't stand, and he leaned directly on the back of the dragon chair.
The ministers were shocked and knelt down to ask the emperor to calm his anger, but since Wei Changyuan had already stood up, those followers would inevitably echo him.
Wei Changyuan and Wei Changze are different, he has been diligent in his work for so many years, and he has a neat and neat shot, quite a Ming Jun's style, his supporters were originally the most among the princes, seeing that the emperor's health seems to be bad, moving down the prince has become the primary task.
Therefore, the emperor closed his eyes and pressed his temples on the dragon chair, and after finally getting better, he heard those people kneeling and "pleading" in unison, saying that the emperor would definitely find out about this matter, and he was so angry that he almost fainted again.
Fortunately, Wei Changjue is not alone, the eldest prince Wei Changqi and the sixth prince Wei Changyin both stood up to speak for him, Wei Changqi is mild-mannered, and he is not very involved in court politics, and most of the words he says are only related to brotherhood.
"Erchen believes in the Three Emperor Brothers, and the Three Emperor Brothers have always treated people realistically, not to mention that he has the people in mind, and the words 'grass and people's lives', Erchen doesn't think he can be connected with him. And just looking at the placement in King Gong's mansion, you know that the third emperor brother has not filled his pockets......"
Before he finished speaking, Wei Changze bullied him into being kind, and directly interrupted: "Brother Great Emperor is too honest, will the person who is full of private pockets put those things out for you?" ”
He lowered his head, looking respectful, but in fact he went to the emperor again, "Father, the sons and daughters think that since there are so many ministers who impeach the three emperor brothers for embezzling ink and disaster relief silver, and check it clearly, they can give justice to the three emperor brothers and the people." ”
Wei Changyin also stood up at this moment and said: "Brother Four Emperors is not right, Prince Gong's Mansion is not only the Prince's Mansion, but also a serious Palace, how can you search for it with a few words from you?" At present, the three emperors' sisters-in-law and other female dependents are in the house, making people turn over chickens and dogs on their backs, scaring them not to say anything, and making everyone in the world see jokes. Taking a step back, if nothing is found, do you want your father to lower his head and make up for the three emperor brothers and sisters-in-law who are juniors? ”
Wei Changze's eyes were like sharp swords, and he shot straight towards Wei Changyin, but Wei Changyin was not afraid, and said calmly: "I just think this is not reasonable from the perspective of etiquette, and I mentioned it, even if the fourth emperor brother glared at me, I insisted on what I thought in my heart." ”
Wei Changze didn't know how to refute it for a while, but Wei Changheng, the son of the Seventh Emperor, who had not spoken, said quietly, "In this way, if there is any greed for ink in the court in the future, for the sake of dignity and decency, the father and emperor can't check it, right?" In the "Historical Records", it is said that 'the prince violates the law, and the common people are guilty of the same crime', and a well-informed person like the Sixth Emperor Brother will not know it, right? ”
Wei Changyin was resisted by these words, he himself is not a person who can speak, he was silent for a moment, and said: "No matter what, I also believe in the Third Emperor Brother, he has always been humble and cautious, and he will never do this to harm the people." ”
But this sentence was so weak that Wei Changze became proud, and looked at the emperor again, "It seems that the eldest emperor brother and the sixth emperor brother are both people who admit their relatives and do not recognize reason." I also asked my father to order that King Gong's mansion be raided! ”
The emperor stared at him for a while, and suddenly realized that this son was out of his control, he suddenly wanted to sigh, but he held back stubbornly, and only looked at Wei Changyuan, "You say, do you want to check it?" ”
Wei Changyuan actually knew that he was forcing his father to make a decision with the four emperor brothers, and he couldn't bear it, but yesterday in Changfu Palace, Ying Guifei said with certainty that the emperor is not in good health now, this sentence is like a soldering iron in his heart, the prince has no military power in his hands, maybe he has money, and he can find some people who work for him, but from the perspective of etiquette, if the emperor really drives the crane west, he will not be able to take his turn, and the ministers in the court can use the foaming stars to help the prince out of the throne.
For various reasons, he had to think of a way to trample Wei Changjue to death at this moment.
He pondered, saluted respectfully, and said respectfully: "Back to my father's words, my son thinks that the raid on King Gong's mansion is to restore the innocence of the third emperor's brother, if he really didn't do it, why is he afraid that his father will send someone to investigate?" ”
The emperor's little hope seems to have been directly wiped out, sitting on this golden dragon chair for so many years, at a glance it is full of other people's submission to him, he never thought that at this moment, he was forced to a dead end by his own children.
"Wow, wow." The emperor sneered and said lightly, "This is the wings are stiff, and they are going to fly!" ”
Wei Changyuan lowered his head, leaving only a top of his hair for the emperor, which seemed to be a silent confrontation, "Erchen doesn't dare." ”
The emperor glanced at him, then at Wei Changze, and said, "Retreat!" ”
Wei Changze raised his head suddenly, and he still had something to say, but the emperor stopped him directly and said, "Every day in the court, the ministers have many things to do, and not every matter can be solved directly. Now that everything about King Gong has come to me, shouldn't I check it out to be able to distinguish rewards and punishments, His Royal Highness King Yu? ”
The last four words were almost word by word, which frightened Wei Changze's heart, and he hurriedly restrained his posture and emotions, and said respectfully: "Yes, father, it's just that the sons and daughters have witnesses here, and they can also provide physical evidence, I don't know if they should ......."
"Changze Changyuan and Changjue, the three of you stay in Qianming Palace, today we must find out this matter and give an explanation to the world, especially to you two brothers, I said so, are you relieved?"
The emperor's tone was already very dissatisfied, as if if if they didn't just get off the donkey, he would be angry immediately, Wei Changyuan and Wei Changze really didn't dare to continue to be presumptuous, glanced at each other, saluted together, Wei Changyuan said: "The sons and daughters don't dare, the father and the emperor arrange it like this, and the sons and daughters are naturally convinced." ”
The emperor glanced at Gonggong Liu, who knew what he meant, and Gao Sheng sang and announced his retirement from the dynasty.
The battle between the princes, the ministers have done their best, and no one will continue to entangle here, and they all come out.
However, after the emperor left the main hall, he did not immediately summon the three of them, but asked the little eunuch to take them to different rooms.
Wei Changze was furious and asked, "What does Father mean by this?" ”
The little eunuch was a person taught by Gonggong Liu, and he spoke in a very orderly manner, and said without humility or arrogance: "The emperor said that several highnesses are now angry and need to be calm and calm." In the next hour or two, the emperor will first review the chapter, and please think carefully about today's events, where you are wrong, and whether you want to continue. ”
Wei Changze shouted: "Of course, we must continue to ......"
It's just that he couldn't finish this sentence, and he was grabbed by Wei Changyuan, and he finally lived more clearly as an elder brother, and said: "In this case, I will bother the little father-in-law to take us to the place where we should go." ”
Only Wei Changjue was the most indifferent here, even if he had torn his face to this point, he still followed the rules and saluted Wei Changyuan before leaving with the little eunuch.
And Wei Changyuan, who was lagging behind, specially whispered to Wei Changze, "Things have come to this point, don't fight for that moment, stay where you should be, don't really anger your father." ”
Wei Changze had no choice but to listen to his brother.
It's just that they didn't expect that this stay would be past noon.
The little food eaten in the morning has long been wiped out in the stomach, where can Wei Changze stand such a grievance, shouting and asking the imperial dining room to send food, but the little eunuch guarding the door said: "The slave didn't hear that he was going to pass food to His Highness, please go back and wait patiently." ”
Wei Changze scolded and scolded, so he almost made a move, and the other party was accompanied by a smiling face, but he didn't do anything, and he didn't move.
Wei Changyuan couldn't eat either, but he just hid his anger and glared at the little eunuch guarding the door. The little eunuch lowered his head and beat a drum in his heart, when he didn't see it at all.
As for Chang Jue, he is used to being patient with anything, and not eating is really nothing to him, but he is a little worried about whether Lan Yi will miss him at home, but when he thinks of Xiao Yanzi's always cleverness, he estimates that he will hear some news to tell Lan Yi.
For him, the most important thing in front of him is to think of ways to wash away the slander on his body, the other party is prepared, and he must see the next means.
And at this moment, in Changfu Palace, Concubine Ying was facing a table full of food and couldn't swallow it, she kept sending Qinghe to inquire about the news, and asked, "How is it?" Is there any movement in Qianming Palace? Have the two children eaten? ”
Qinghe was also anxious, when they planned all this last night, she was on the side, thinking that it would be smooth today, but she never thought that half a day had passed, and she didn't see the emperor start to suppress Prince Gong's mansion, so she could only tell Concubine Ying what she knew at this time.
"The slave maid wants to find Grandpa Liu, but Grandpa Liu doesn't see anyone at the moment, saying that he is waiting by the emperor's side, and the slave and maid are not easy to break in and ask what is going on, I only know that the imperial dining room does not cook the meals of the three highnesses, and I can't eat if I think about it."
