Chapter 42 Proctor General
When Concubine Ling was taken to the imperial study from An Chengluo, she followed behind until An Cheng fell into the imperial study, and she also stayed outside the imperial study and did not leave.
A group of palace maids followed behind her, looking at Concubine Ling who had been hiding her face and crying, from time to time, the palace maid Ronghua stepped forward to comfort a few words, it was okay not to persuade, Ronghua persuaded her, and Concubine Ling cried even more.
As soon as she saw Fuzhong come out, Concubine Ling immediately stepped forward, grabbed him, and said with tears in her eyes: "Father-in-law Fu, how is Luo'er?" Let this palace see Luo'er. ”
"Concubine Lingniang, at this time, the eleventh prince is discussing with the emperor, if the mother wants to see the prince, wait for the emperor and the prince to finish the discussion, and summon the prince to Huaqing Palace, Niangniang doesn't have to work hard to guard here, and then the slave will send someone to Huaqing Palace to report to you." Fu Zhong said, Concubine Ling is already favored again, even if Fu Zhong is a big celebrity in front of Emperor Anren, he has to serve Concubine Ling well, and he doesn't dare to slack off at all.
"In this way, it will be annoying to my father-in-law." Concubine Ling sniffed, her expression was a little dazed, she couldn't see Luo'er, she seemed to have no soul.
"This is a trivial matter, Niangniang, go back to Huaqing Palace first and wait, the slave still has to go to pass the decree, this can not be delayed." After Fu Zhong finished speaking, he saluted Concubine Ling again, and left in a hurry.
Concubine Ling looked back at the imperial study, and finally returned to Huaqing Palace surrounded by a group of palace maids.
Zhengguang Hou was called into the palace, and this was the third time An Chengluo saw Zhengguang Hou.
The first time was the twenty-fifth year of Emperor Anren, and at the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, the princes and generals and hundreds of civil and military officials worshipped. And the second time was a few years ago, when he had not injured his leg, at the queen's birthday banquet. Now the third time they met, it was he who told Zhengguang Hou to the front of the palace.
Thinking about it, it is really a creation to make people, he and Zhengguang Hou have no grievances and no hatred, how can this Zhengguang Hou not go away, and he wants to become the minions of those people, so it is no wonder that he is ruthless.
Compared with Zhengguanghou's accumulated crimes, his move is to eliminate harm for the people.
Emperor An Ren threw the paper presented by An Chengluo on Zhengguanghou's face in a fit of anger, pointed at his face, trembled angrily, and roared: "See for yourself what you have done!" ”
Zhengguang Hou looked at Emperor An Ren in a rage, his heart was uneasy, it took a lot of effort to pretend to be calm, picked up the paper and looked at it again, his face changed greatly, he grabbed the paper and knelt a few steps towards Emperor An Ren, and shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged!" This is a false accusation, how could a minister do such a thing that violates the laws of the Great Zhou. ”
"False accusations?" Emperor An Ren snorted heavily, and said coldly: "Luo'er has always lived in a simple place, do you think it is necessary for him to falsely accuse you?" ”
"Your Majesty, where is there such a coincidence in this world, the eleventh prince can meet a Diao Min testimony on the street, there are countless officials walking on the street every day, how can they not touch, this is obviously someone deliberately framed the minister, please the emperor to investigate!" Zhengguang Hou hurriedly played: "And the eleventh prince has not found out about this matter, just based on the one-sided words of the two Diao people, it is so fanfare, isn't the eleventh prince eager to seek merit?" ”
"Bastard!" As soon as Emperor An Ren heard this, he directly raised his foot and kicked on the shoulder of Zhengguang Hou, who was kicked down, and quickly got up and knelt back.
It's just that he is already in his fifties, and Emperor Anren's kick almost kicked his bones apart.
Emperor An Ren was so angry that he turned his back and kept walking back and forth in front of Zhengguang Hou, pointing at his head from time to time, and he was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
was really angry, and another bastard cursed, and raised his foot again and kicked on the other shoulder of Zhengguang Hou. Zhengguang Hou grinned in pain, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it, but he looked at An Chengluo from the corner of his eye, with a faint viciousness.
"Father, the son immediately entered the palace when he learned of this, and he did not find out that it was indeed the son's negligence, but this matter is related to the people of Ruzhou, and it cannot be delayed. An Chengluo frowned and pursed his lips.
"It's rare for my son to worry about the country and the people in his heart, and I am very pleased." Emperor An Ren's expression was a little calmer, he didn't have such a big temper with An Chengluo, and if this matter was serious, An Chengluo would be a meritorious report, and he would naturally not give An Chengluo a look.
"The retainers are terrified." An Chengluo lowered his head.
After Emperor An Ren walked the imperial case, he looked at Zhengguang Hou who was kneeling on the ground with cold eyes, and said with an angry face: "As a prince and nobleman, he used his power for personal gain, embezzled the interests of the people, and caused the people to complain, as soon as he was concerned, it was a crime that deserved to die!" ”
"Fuzhong, pass on my will, and the Zhongshu Province, the Lian Visit Division, and the Dali Temple will jointly hear the case, and immediately send people to Ruzhou to find out what happened. The eleventh prince An Chengluo reported meritorious, and was specially appointed as a supervisor, supervising and hearing the whole process. ”
"Before the case was clarified, the Zhengguang Hou was first taken into custody at Dali Temple, and all the people in the Zhengguang Hou Mansion were grounded and were not allowed to enter and leave the Hou Mansion at will."
"The minion takes orders." Fu Zhong lowered his body, bowed his waist and withdrew to the imperial study to deliver the decree.
Zhengguang Hou was only a little flustered in his heart at this time, if he was really found out by Emperor An Ren, he really didn't have enough heads. can only hope that after the man learns the news, he will cover for him.
An Chengluo showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, although the turmoil in the officials has not stopped, coming to bring down Zhengguang Hou at this time will inevitably make those people have doubts. However, he did not participate in the affairs of the ministry, as for Zhengguang Hou, it was not deliberate by this king, who let this happen to let him bump into it.
Two guards came in from outside the imperial study, and took Zhengguang Hou away directly, An Chengluo also bowed and retired, and as soon as he came out of the imperial study, he was invited to Huaqing Palace by the waiters from Huaqing Palace.
Emperor An Ren originally wanted An Chengluo to stay in the imperial study to discuss matters, but when he remembered what had happened recently, his head was bigger than two, and his head was swollen and painful, so he didn't keep it. As soon as An Chengluo left, he asked Fuzhong to quietly invite the imperial doctor to prescribe some analgesic soup.
An Chengluo followed the chamberlain all the way to Huaqing Palace, Concubine Ling stayed at the gate of Huaqing Palace early, and immediately greeted An Chengluo when she saw her.
"Why is the concubine waiting for her sons here?" An Chengluo asked puzzled.
"Niangniang heard that the prince asked for his life for the people at the noon gate, in fact, he also went to the noon gate early, but the mother couldn't get out of the palace, and she wanted to go to the imperial study to pick up the prince, for fear of disturbing the prince and the emperor to talk about big things, so she could only go back to Huaqing Palace and wait." Rong Hua hurriedly said on the side, if she didn't say it, her own mother wouldn't say it.
"The mother doesn't have to work so hard, the sons and daughters ask for the people's lives, this is a righteous act." An Chengluo smiled slightly.
"Even if you want to ask for your life for the people, Luo'er doesn't have to kneel at the noon gate, don't forget, you are a prince." Concubine Ling sighed.
