Chapter 14: I was turned green by the prince
Zhu Wanqing and Zhang Hanwen, as small characters, could only sit in the outermost side seat in the Qianqing Palace, and when they heard the emperor calling the two of them, they quickly got up and knelt down in the center of the main hall.
"Zhang Hanwen, the right attendant of the Ministry of Households, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live." Zhang Hanwen tried to see the emperor in the palace back then, but at that time he was still a poor scholar, thin skin and bones, so he didn't leave any impression on the emperor.
After entering high school, Zhang Hanwen became an official for a few years, and he became more mellow, which made him look like a person. The emperor looked at it this time, yo, it is indeed a talent.
"Well, you are Yao Bingyong's student, and Princess Lingyang is Yao Lao's granddaughter, you are a kiss and a kiss, okay." The emperor didn't ask Zhu Wanqing's opinion, so he directly ordered marriage, after all, the emperor pointed out that marriage was a great favor in that era, and you had to accept it whether you were happy or not.
"Thank you, Father." Zhu Wanqing didn't react, she smiled slightly and thanked her, and Yao Bingyong on the side was finally relieved when she saw this, and nodded with relief.
Zhu Wanqing deliberately looked at Xu Guangyan when she returned to her seat, as if she was signaling: Lord Xu will look at you for a while.
Yao Bingyong has done everything he wants to do, and the next thing is to attack the prince, and he glanced at He Dawei, the secretary of the military department, who was drinking wine and eating meat.
Although He Dawei is also a scholar, he is still a little rough from a martial arts background, and he actually dropped the chain at a critical moment, and only cared about pushing the cup and changing the lamp with others, and he had no idea about Yao Bingyong at all.
Yao Xiangfan on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and coughed heavily, and He Dawei reacted at this time.
"The Holy Gift, the ministers also have programs to present to the emperor." He Dawei's mouth was full of oil, how could he have the appearance of a cabinet minister, but the emperor's eyes were not easy to see clearly, so he didn't care.
"Oh? What is the show presented by He Aiqing? The Emperor asked.
"Recently, there is a strange woman in the capital who looks like a fairy and has a voice like a warbler, and it is rumored that anyone who listens to this woman's tune, the whole person is immediately refreshed, and even some people's stubborn diseases for many years have been cured." He Dawei bragged about it, and he didn't even believe it.
"Ho, my lord! Don't listen to those rumors, aren't you just a singer who sings songs? You've been blown into a fairy. Yao Bingyong said righteously.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that He Dawei and Yao Ge always wear a pair of pants, these two are singing double reeds, Yao said this is nothing more than to cover up.
"Elder Yao Ge, that Liuqin Yan is not an ordinary singer, but it took me a lot of effort to invite her to celebrate the emperor's birthday." He Dawei said the three words Liu Qinyan, which Zhu Yu and the emperor's father and son were both shocked.
Zhu Yu was still immersed in the entanglement with Liu Qinyan the day before yesterday and couldn't extricate himself, and now he is happy to see her again.
The emperor is also full of expectations here, in the past, in order to block the mouth of those imperial historians of the Imperial Procuratorate, he could only sneak out to have fun, and did not dare to call people into the palace. "It's just wonderful!
"Xuange Ji Liuqin Yan enters the hall~!" Hua Changluo crowed as he lifted the rooster's crowing voice.
After a while, a small eunuch ran in in a panic and knelt down.
"Bastard, where's Liuqin Yanren?" The playboy asked sharply.
"Your Majesty, Miss Liu, she, she ......" The little eunuch Xu was too nervous, stumbling, and said that it was not good.
"Tell me! What's wrong with Liu Qinyan? "The dudes are dying.
"She hanged!" The little eunuch held back for a long time, and finally popped out four words.
The entire Qianqing Palace was suddenly embarrassed, and the emperor was also shocked.
"But I was rescued, and now I'm unconscious." The little eunuch added.
"Why did you hang yourself?" After a moment, the emperor asked.
"It was said that he was defiled by a guest after drinking the day before yesterday, and this is ......," the little eunuch did not continue.
"Presumptuous! Who? Who is so bold? Dare to move my ...... My singer! The Emperor jumped up from the dragon chair, his head bruised.
"The little ones don't dare to say it." The little eunuch trembled with fright.
At this time, the prince below had already woken up and realized that he had been tricked. Cuckold his own emperor Lao Tzu, this can't be washed in vain.
"I order you to say it now, and if you don't say it, I'll cut you down immediately." The Emperor angrily slammed his glass.
"It's the prince of the East Palace!" The little eunuch said with a sad face that he was clearly aware that he was going to be finished.
"Presumptuous! Dare to slander the prince of the dynasty, come and drag him out with a cane. The playboy immediately sent down the little eunuch.
Zhu Yu is not much better than this little eunuch at this time, I saw that his whole face was white, if he hadn't been wearing more, I am afraid that the matter of peeing his pants at this moment would have been publicized to the public.
"Prince, do you say it yourself, does this matter have anything to do with you?" The emperor turned his head and asked the trembling prince.
"Erchen...... Erchen ......, "The prince couldn't answer for a long time.
"The minister is the prince and the prince, the prince is guilty today, the minister should be responsible, please Your Majesty to condemn the crime!" Xu Guangyan hurriedly went up to ask for guilt, but in fact, he was also blocking the arrows for the prince.
"Lord Xu, this shouldn't be the time for you to protect your calves!" He Dawei said.
"The emperor is angry, the prince is just drunk and out of manners, and it has become a fact, just a singer, Your Majesty will bypass His Royal Highness the Prince." Yao Bingyong was obviously interceding for Zhu Yu, but in fact he was adding fuel to the fire and further angering the emperor.
"A moment out of order? I think he is drunk and promiscuous, and he has no royal decency, how can he have the demeanor of a prince? The emperor pointed at the prince and didn't fight angrily.
"The retainer is guilty! The son is guilty! Zhu Yu knelt and crawled in front of the emperor and kept kowtowing.
The emperor's favorite singer was taken by the prince first, in exchange for usual, in fact, it may not be a thing to break the sky, before Liu Qinyan, I don't know how many top cards in the teaching workshop have served both the prince and the emperor, and both of them know it. But this time, in front of the civil and military officials, the emperor also wants to save face, if the prince is not punished, how can he establish the emperor's authority in the future?
The Qianqing Palace fell into a brief silence, and a tense atmosphere enveloped everyone present, and everyone was waiting for the emperor's final decision.
"Passing the decree, the crown prince Zhu Yu has been an assistant for many years, and he has made no achievements. Pondering wine all day long, wandering excessively, intimate and small, alienating righteous people, losing the prince's demeanor, and no benevolence to set an example in the world. Therefore, I obeyed the way of heaven and deposed the prince. Remembering that he still has a heart of repentance, I am also a father, and I named him the king of Jin, and set off for the fiefdom on the same day, and I cannot enter Beijing without an edict. The Emperor turned his back.
"Thank you, Lord Long." The crown prince took off his crown and kowtowed heavily.
Yao Bingyong and the others can be said to be ecstatic in their hearts at this time, it is too smooth! It's perfect! Everything is developing according to a pre-planned script.
"Your Majesty, it's the minister's turn to give a congratulatory gift." When Xu Guangyan saw that the crown prince was deposed, he thought to himself that he couldn't manage so much, even if I died, I would break your two teeth Yao Bingyong.
"What else do you have to say?" The emperor said lightly.
"The minister wants to participate in the right attendant of the household department, Zhang Hanwen, during his tenure as the prefect of Langcheng, he was corrupt and bent the law, deceived and concealed from the top, and failed the emperor's grace, so he should be held accountable!" As soon as Xu Guangyan said this, the ministers sighed again.
"Enough! That's enough! You're still not letting me have a good life! The Emperor was furious.
Xu Guangyan doesn't care if your emperor lives or not, now it's your life and death, if you don't stab you now, I'm afraid you won't have a chance in the future.
"Your Majesty, the land in Langcheng is 30 stone and 1 mu in the harvest year, and 15 stone 1 mu in the famine year, and this year there is a big disaster, Zhang Hanwen not only privately deducted the money and grain of the imperial court for disaster relief, but also organized people to exchange the unit price of only five buckets of rice for tens of thousands of acres of land for the people. Xu Guangyan made a loud noise.
Yao Bingyong and the others were all shocked after hearing it, how could he, Xu Guangyan, understand it so clearly?
"Hundreds of people were forced to change land in order to give their children a bite to eat, and Zhang Hanwen sold those lands to the gentry clan, with a full 250,000 taels of silver, all of which were returned to the old mansion of Yao Ge." Xu Guangyan finally opened the ultimate.
"You fart!" Yao Bingyong can't control any manners, so he has to go up and fight with Xu Guangyan.
Seeing this, the ministers hurriedly went up to pull the rack, but this pulling and pulling turned into two groups of people fighting.
The emperor looked at the group of people below helplessly, and for a while his chest was stuffy, and he couldn't get up in one breath, poof, and in a moment, a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
Emperor!! The flowers often fall and scream.
The fight stopped.
Someone! Pass on the Imperial Doctor!
The emperor's fiftieth birthday ended in such a hurry. But all this was expected by Zhu Wanqing, she was not at a loss like others, but calmly pulled the food in the bowl, and finally ate a good meal, which could not be wasted.
