The trial was held in court, and the prince of Huainan was not without countermeasures.

“…… Ben Shizi complained a few words in the house, and Steward Liao misunderstood Ben Shizi's meaning and made this matter on his own initiative. By the time the son of this world knows, it will be too late. ”

"Miss Xie San's heart is pure and filial, and the rumors are pure and nonsense."

"Although this son of the world is unintentional, the person who committed the crime is the person next to the son of this world. This son of the world will never shield and protect! Please judge the case impartially! ”

Steward Liao is about forty years old, shrewd and capable, and can be called the first cronie of the prince of Huainan.

The prince of Huainan pushed out Steward Liao to confess, Xie Jun and Gonggong Wei glanced at each other, but did not say anything more.

The prince of Huainan was willing to go to court, but he bowed his head and retreated. If you want to use this matter to put the prince of Huainan in the government prison, it is pure laughter.

The disgraced Steward Liao honestly pleaded guilty, was beaten 30 boards in court, and was sentenced to two years in prison.

In order to slander Miss Xie San's reputation, the prince of Huainan personally apologized to Xie Jun in court, and said that he would bring gifts to the door to make amends.

This is the end of this public case.

The people who watched the trial outside the government were noisy and talking.

The prince of Huainan walked out of the palace with a gloomy face. The Huainan Palace's face was disgraced today, all because he acted recklessly and impulsively without much thought.

No matter how much humiliation he suffers today, he will have to swallow it.

When Xie Jun walked out of the mansion, his face was radiant, his head was raised and his chest was straight, and he even breathed extremely happily.

Gonggong Wei went out of the mansion with Xie Jun, and said with a smile: "Miss Xie San's name is protected, and the Huainan Mansion bows her head and admits her mistakes, so Lord Xie should also be relieved." ”

Xie Jun hurriedly smiled: "Today's matter, there is Lao Wei's father-in-law." At this time, it was already early afternoon, and I missed lunch because of the court trial. It's up to me to be the east, and I invite Gonggong Wei to appreciate the light. ”

is only a four-grade official, Wei Gong's fair day is really not in sight. However, Xie Jun in front of him is the future father-in-law of the Seventh Prince, and his weight is different.

Xie Jun took the initiative to show goodwill, and Father-in-law Wei had no reason to refuse, and smiled very kindly: "Lord Xie is too polite." In this way, our family will be disrespectful! ”

……

Xie Jun and Father-in-law Wei went to the restaurant in a happy mood.

The prince of Huainan was full of gloom and boredom, and returned to the Huainan palace with a gloomy expression.

The steward with sharp legs and feet had already returned to the house one step ahead of him and reported the matter of the court to the king of Huainan. The first thing the prince of Huainan did when he returned to the house was to go to the bed of the king of Huainan and tell him what happened: "...... Father, we have bowed our heads and backed down, and the matter is settled. In the short term, the son will not provoke the Xie family. ”

The implication is that after this period of time, there is always an opportunity to "calculate" this account.

The king of Huainan has been ill for many days, his complexion is not good, and his old appearance is revealed. has a mouth, but it is old and accurate, and his judgment of the situation is by no means comparable to that of the prince of Huainan: "You are wrong, you didn't understand this matter, but just started." ”

The real crisis of Huainan Wangfu has just begun!

The prince of Huainan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, and his eyes flashed with anger: "Father is talking about Uncle Linjiang and Uncle Hejian?" ”

The King of Linjiang and the King of Huainan belonged to different camps, and they were secretly competing with each other, and they had already been rivals for many years.

The king of the river has been idle for many years, and once he gains power, how can he spit out the fat in his mouth again?

The king of Linjiang is going to fall into the well, and the king of Hejian will take the opportunity to compete for the errand of the Zongren Mansion, which is all something that can be seen and wanted. The Huainan Royal Mansion must not back down.

King Huainan's eyes flashed, and he whispered a few words to the prince of Huainan.

The prince of Huainan also knew that the matter was urgent, and he did not dare to be negligent, so he responded one by one.

……

A few days later, at the court meeting, the king of Linjiang really went on a show.

Under the rule of the prince of Huainan, he did not strictly indulge slaves and do evil, which was despicable. The Clan's Office is in charge of all royal clansmen and is responsible for administering arbitration. The king of Huainan has been ill for a long time, and the prince of Huainan is overwhelmed by the heavy responsibility.

King Kama was the youngest of the princes, only forty years old, in good health, and cautious. Since taking over the Zongren Mansion, he has been conscientious and conscientious, and he has never made a mistake.

On behalf of all the people of the clan, the king of Linjiang implored the Son of Heaven to hand over the Zongren Mansion to the king of Hejian.

As soon as this recital came out, most of the more than a dozen princes and county kings who were qualified to come to the dynasty echoed their words. There were two inclined to the king of Huainan, and the voice was weak and weak, and soon the voice disappeared in the sound of the princes and princes.

The responsibility of the Zongren Mansion is to be in charge of the descendants of the royal bloodline, and it is a major matter for the clansmen. For the courtiers, it doesn't matter who is in charge of the position of Zongzheng.

The elders, led by Lu Ge Lao, all remained silent.

However, Yue Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites said a few words about the interrogation of the prince of Huainan in court: "...... Huainan Wangfu and the Xie family were originally in-laws, but rumors spread angrily because of the reconciliation between the county lord of Yongning and Lord Xie. With such a trivial matter, how can you judge that the prince of Huainan is not worthy of a heavy responsibility? King Linjiang's words are too arbitrary! ”

"Moreover, the king of Huainan is still sick, and even if the emperor is sympathetic to the old ministers, he should be tolerant. There is no reason to seize the position of King Zongzheng of Huainan at this time. ”

"As soon as this case is opened, once the courtiers fall ill in the future, it is time for the official to retire."

Yue Shangshu's words were really sharp, and he immediately dragged the courtiers watching the fire from the other side into the troubled water.

The elders, who had been silent, also spoke out on this matter.

"The old minister thinks that the position of the Zongren Mansion is not trivial. King Huainan has been in charge of the Zongren Mansion for many years, and he is not at fault, but he took the errand just because he was sick, which is really inappropriate. As the second assistant, Li Ge Lao slowly opened his mouth.

Suddenly, a group of officials echoed and suppressed the momentum caused by the King of Linjiang before.

Elder Fang Ge took a step forward and said slowly: "King Huainan is old-fashioned, and everyone can see it. It's a pity that the tiger father has a dog, and the prince of Huainan is impulsive and irritable, domineering, and it is indeed difficult to take on a big responsibility. ”

Next, two imperial histories emerged to impeach the prince of Huainan for all kinds of evil deeds. Just listening to the generous statement of the imperial history, the prince of Huainan is simply heinous and unbearable.

If the Son does not teach, the Father is guilty.

Raising such an unsuccessful son, the character of King Huainan, the old man, is also quite questionable.

Elder Yan Ge quickly stood up: "According to what Elder Fang Ge said, if his son makes a mistake in the future, he should pull his father out for interrogation and punishment!" In this way, who doesn't have a bad offspring? Who dares to assert that their children and grandchildren are infallible? ”

Xiao Shangshu of the household department opened his mouth to retort: "The prince of Huainan is the eldest son of the king of Huainan, and he has the position of the prince. How can it be equal to ordinary children and grandchildren? ”

The important ministers of the imperial court, who cherished words like gold just now, suddenly changed their appearance and opened their mouths to speak.

The second prince, who had been in power for several years, did not say a word.

The three princes, the four princes, and the five princes who only began to approach the dynasty after the New Year had different expressions.
