Chapter 205: Five Ghosts Mess Up
Soon, King Kang opened the envelope given to him by Cao Baoli in the study of King Kang's mansion.
"This Cao Baoli! A eunuch is a eunuch, impermanent, rude and immoral, and he asked this king to come forward to be this person! King Kang angrily slapped the letter on the table.
Zhou Siyuan picked up the letter and smiled when he looked at it: "Isn't this Cao Baoli asking His Royal Highness to hand over your name?" Good thing, Your Highness. Ming Cao Baoli really intends to join forces with you, and is willing to protect you to the big treasure! ”
This Zhou Siyuan is Miss Zhou's own brother, their family does some business, and her mother is a distant relative of the Su family. I didn't take the test in my hometown last year, so I was messing around at home. Unexpectedly, my sister Zhou Qingzhi was selected by Concubine Su and became King Kang's concubine, and now she is also successfully pregnant with King Kang's child, and it is only a matter of time before she is promoted to Mrs. Kang.
After going back and forth, Zhou Siyuan, who had a bit of brains, posted on King Kang and played for King Kang. After listening to Zhou Siyuan's words, King Kang picked up the letter and read it again, nodded and smiled: "Even so, it's okay, this king will bring it up in the court tomorrow, and this king also wants to see it, above the main hall, there are a few people who will buy this king's account." ”
In the second early dynasty, Cao Baoli and Tian Jun stood on the empty dragon chair as usual and sang: "There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat!" Everyone flicked their sleeves as usual and prepared to retreat.
"The son has a book." King Kang took a step forward and said: "My father worked hard day and night to cultivate for the country, and I am fortunate to be accompanied by the double monk Qi Daogu, which is my intention." In order to help his father and emperor attain the Tao as soon as possible, the son suggested that Qi Daogu be named the Taoist concubine and accompany the father to cultivate and ask immortals to become good. ”
King Kang's words were astonishing, and they were simply unheard of. For a while, the ministers were talking.
If you leave a Dao Gu in the harem, this is the emperor's private matter, everyone turns a blind eye, and it doesn't matter, now it is necessary to put it on the table in a grand manner and seal a Dao Gu as a concubine, which will make those masters of science unacceptable. This is not to seal the concubine, but to provoke the etiquette.
The prince frowned slightly and said nothing, he had already guessed what King Kang meant: King Kang or Cao Baoli was referring to the deer as a horse and following Zhao Gao.
King Xian smiled: "This is my father's harem family matter, why do you want to take it to the court, fifth brother?" When you go to the court, it's the right thing, so how can you do it? "The king thinks simply, but the father likes a woman, why bother with what identity?
"His Royal Highness King Kang, the minister thinks this matter is inappropriate." Guan Minwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Daogu is a person outside the party, and according to the etiquette law, it is not appropriate to be a concubine." ”
Cao Baoli, who was next to the dragon chair, snorted in his nose and said sharply: "Then what do you mean, the emperor cultivates the Tao, according to the etiquette law, is it impossible to be the emperor?" ”
Guan Minwen was shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly: "Weichen has no such intention!" Wechen is only responsible for the place where the etiquette is not in accordance with the law. ”
"The emperor is the son, and the emperor is the law. The minister seconded the performance of His Royal Highness King Kang, and named Qi Daogu as the Taoist concubine. "The head of the household, Pei Shiyan, came out of the ranks.
Seeing that Lu Bin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Gu Zichen, the Taifu Siqing, also seconded the proposal, Cao Baoli was satisfied: "What King Kang plays, the emperor will approve." ”
Guan Minwen is a straight temper, he took two steps forward, knelt in front of the dragon chair, and said categorically: "The court is a country of etiquette, if you want to be harmonious with the government and live a good life, the etiquette law must not be abolished." If the emperor insists on appointing a Taoist aunt as a Taoist concubine, then ask the emperor to remove him from the post of secretary of the Ministry of Rites and Rites! ”
Cao Baoli was about to make an example of the chicken, but his face changed: "Do you think the emperor just dismissed you?" Guan Minwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, disobeyed the saints, alarmist, spread rumors, and made trouble, and when someone came, Guan Minwen was immediately taken down and put into prison. ”
"Wait!" The crown prince shouted loudly, he came out of the column to salute the empty dragon chair, and said in a deep voice: "Guan Shangshu has always fulfilled his duties, and he has never been disobedient and guilty, just one sentence, to behead an important minister immediately, Lord Cao is too hasty." ”
"Sloppy?" Cao Baoli was waiting for the prince, and he was going to slap the prince in the face in public, and the civil and military officials knew who was above the court. He smiled at the prince: "Guan Minwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, formed a party and disrupted the government, intended to rebel, and the crime was added to the first degree." Tomorrow...... Ask for a cut in the afternoon! Tian Jun, the purpose! ”
He didn't give the prince another chance to speak, and sang directly to himself: "Retreat from the dynasty!" By the time everyone reacted, Cao Baoli had already turned around and left.
King Kang smiled and glanced at Pei Shiyan, Lu Bin, and Gu Zichen, and took the lead out of the hall with one hand behind his back.
The prince lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, stood for a moment, and then went out of the main hall and went straight out of the palace to the prince's mansion. Soon, Shen An, Fan Yong, Sun Yang's father and son, also quietly entered the prince's mansion one after another.
Yan Shiyi made military achievements in the Northern Expedition, and the prince recommended him to take over Cheng Hanbai's original post and become the commander of the Beijing Guard. He took a break today, got the news of Ji Baiyu early, and waited for the prince to come back in the prince's mansion. Shen An, Fan Yong, and Sun Yang entered the main hall and nodded to Yan Shiyi.
"King Kang actually colluded with Cao Baoli, does he still want to make a comeback?" Fan Yongcheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was a little depressed: "Looking for this ridiculous reason to suppress Guan Minwen today is to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys!" ”
"This time, Congxi thoroughly investigated the Fujian officials and cut off Cao Baoli's financial route, he was annoyed and angry, and he wanted to establish authority in the court, but he just used King Kang as a gunman." Shen An said.
Yan Shiyi handed Ji Baiyu's note to the prince, who glanced at it and said to Shen An: "The newly appointed officials in Fujian, someone bought the murderer and wanted to kill a few of them. This is the bottom line of measuring the lonely, slapping the lonely's face, and establishing his authority. ”
Yan Shiyi: "Now I'll ask over there, can you do it hard?" ”
The prince shook his head and sighed: "Rat-throwing taboo...... still avoided the limelight this time, and according to the previous practice, found a few death row inmates to be substitutes for the dead ghosts. However, the career of these officials came to an end. ”
This time, the crown prince not only arranged for King Cheng to take Jin Wuwei with him, but also brought Wen Cunzhi, the left attendant of the ministry, while he carried a stack of lists of approved personnel. Only then was it possible to dismiss 32 corrupt officials and appoint 32 new officials at the same time.
"Cao Bao set up the five of them, deceived the saints, and blackmailed the princes, I am afraid it will become more and more intense. Dali Temple has also received a lot of unjust cases, all of which are cases of Cao Baoli and his gang framing officials! Sun Yanxi said: "Now the East Factory, the West Factory, and the Jinyi Guard, rushing to arrest people for meritorious service, and now the court directly frames Guan Minwen, I'm afraid it is the beginning of cleaning up the court members!" ”
"This is a clear killing, according to the style of the factory guard, I'm afraid that assassination is indispensable!" Yan Shiyi said in a deep voice.
"Let's avoid the limelight first, don't directly clash with Cao Baoli and them, save your strength and wait for the opportunity!" The prince patted Sun Yanxi on the shoulder: "But I can't watch Master Guan give his life, and if he stays alive, he will have a chance to overturn the case in the future." ”
"But the holy decree has been issued, tomorrow afternoon, is there still a chance to flip?" Sun Yang was overjoyed, and since the prince said this, he must have an idea in his heart.
The prince smiled and shook his head, "There is no way to be lonely, but after the change of the crown princess Sakura's martial arts, my father thanked the princess for blocking the arrow for her, and gave the princess a gold medal for avoiding death. ”
Sun Yang and Fan Yong tasted Shen An, glanced at each other, knelt down for the prince, and were all moved: "The prince is sympathetic to his subordinates, I am grateful!" "If Guan Minwen is beheaded, these ministers, who are not close to the courtiers and King Kang, will inevitably die of cold lips and teeth, and when they see that the prince is reluctant to give up, they feel that they have followed the right master.
Back in the East Palace, Xie Ruizhu had his own thoughts about Begonia. Haitang thought for a while: "It's difficult now, Cao Baoli will inevitably prevent me from seeing the emperor." I can try to pretend to be a palace maid delivering breakfast, but I need Wuyingdian to have an internal response, so I can get in. ”
Xie Ruijiao held her hand: "I have two of them, but they can't get close to my father." Once you're in, you're left to deal with it on your own. ”
Haitang also shook his hand hard, looked up into his eyes, and said with a slight smile:
"Rui Ji, no matter how difficult it is, I'm willing to give it a try for you."
