Chapter 406: Lively

The next day, Lu Zheng took the Hun King Maodun's cessation of war and a letter to return to Beijing with a large army.

If you ride alone, hurry up the horse and whip the road, and the horses and other conditions are favorable, from the northwest to Yejing, there are three days of kung fu almost arrived.

But the army will not be able to do it so quickly.

And it was not wartime, and Lu Zheng couldn't take everyone on a quick march, so the time to return to Beijing was delayed.

However, no matter how long it was, ten days later, the army also arrived outside Yejing City.

Lu Zheng arranged for a large army to be stationed, and he brought a team of personal guards, as well as Wen Tao and others into the city.

In the past ten days, Yejing City has been very lively.

Mainly, it is the joy in the court.

The prince ordered people to scatter all the evidence in his hands, which really caught Wang Depu off guard.

Fortunately, Wang Depu had already decided to give up He Xin at the beginning, so although he panicked, he was not chaotic.

However, what he didn't expect was that the prince's evidence not only involved He Xin, but also his eldest son Wang Changping.

Of course, the weight of the son and the student cannot be the same, at the critical moment, the student can give up, and the son can't just give up.

Although his son is not successful, he is also his only sister-in-law, and if he moves his whole body, he can't keep his son this time, and the next one who can't be saved may be himself.

Therefore, Wang Depu was busy, dredged up and down with the eldest prince, and contacted Concubine Rong, asking her to find a way to stabilize the emperor, and when necessary, be sure to ask the emperor to spare Wang Changping's life.

Wang Changping is also a relative of the emperor in the end, no matter what happens to the emperor, he must also take care of his own face, right?

Fortunately, the dredging was timely and appropriate, and the matter of the son was temporarily suppressed, Wang Depu and the eldest prince just breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't think about it, and suddenly the old scandal broke out again.

As soon as Wang Depu heard the news, he was angry.

He always knew that his only sister-in-law was not angry, but he didn't expect that this person would not be angry and become such a virtue!

Doing business with foreigners in private is not a big deal in itself, but it involves Lu Zheng's uncle, the truth about the battle in which Lu Hongwu died in battle.

Wang Depu knew at this time that he couldn't hold on to this matter.

Sure enough, Zheng Junjun, the protector of the country, got the news out of nowhere, and the next day he held the tablet of his deceased husband and asked to see the emperor and sue the emperor.

The Protector Mansion and the Wang family have always been at odds, but they have never been in trouble.

Zheng is the widow of a meritorious general, her husband died in battle to defend Nanzhao, she came to sue, and the emperor did not want to lose face.

Investigate, investigate thoroughly, and in order to avoid suspicion, the eldest prince can no longer contact this case.

The case was like this, completely, from the inside out, and fell on the head of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really had a set of investigations, and it didn't take long for him to find definite evidence to prove that the battle that year was indeed because Wang Changping intervened in the military quartermaster, which indirectly killed Lu Hongwu.

The Zheng family went crazy on the spot, and asked the Wang family to give an explanation, so that the emperor could call the shots for the deceased husband.

In this case, the emperor had no choice but to order Wang Changping to be severely punished.

But there is a problem with how to punish it severely.

Beheaded, there is still the face of Concubine Rong and the eldest prince, it is difficult to decide, but if the sentence is light, the Zheng family will not forgive, and will come over to cry with a deceased husband's tablet at every turn.

That posture, I'm afraid it's snowing in June, it's just that.

The emperor was embarrassed, Wang Depu also said that he was sick and couldn't get out of bed for the sake of the whole family, and said that he would immediately come to the emperor to ask the emperor to surrender his guilt and accuse him of lax discipline.

The emperor was so worried that he had to call the prince to discuss how to punish him.

Of course, it is impossible for the prince to give the emperor this idea, so he will not do such an unflattering thing that offends people inside and out.

As a result, the prince also worried, worried about the country and the people, and worried about the world and society, but he couldn't get up to the point.

But the emperor can't say that the prince did something wrong.

However, this case was found out by the prince, did the prince really do nothing wrong?

Thinking of this, the emperor no longer had the heart to look at the prince, and waved people out of the imperial study.

Out of the imperial study, the prince snorted mockingly in his heart.

knew that if you find out about this matter, you will be disliked by your father.

But when he really saw his father's displeased eyes, the prince felt that he really didn't feel good in his heart.

The crown prince went to see the Queen Mother.

The emperor was too worried, what to do if he got sick, the prince was very worried about his father's dragon body, so he asked the queen mother to go out and comfort the emperor.

The harem ignores the government, but the queen mother is not an ordinary harem woman after all, and after learning about the general situation from the prince, the queen mother went to see the emperor in full costume.

His son understands for himself that the Queen Mother has her own set of persuasion methods.

Applying both soft and hard, persuaded by a set of words, and the emperor figured it out.

Also, what is there to worry about, the law is there, and what is written in the law is how to judge.

So, Emperor Hui laid out the law, and in accordance with the laws of Nanzhao, Wang Changping was sent to Yaozhou to do hard labor.

This Yaozhou, as soon as you hear the name, you know that it is 108,000 miles away from Yejing, Wang Changping is gone, whether he lives or dies, and if he wants to return to Yejing in this life, I am afraid it is impossible.

The daughters of the Wang family, including the married Concubine Rong and the eldest princess, all cried when they heard the news.

At this time, Wang Depu removed his son from the family, saying that such a person who violated the law and discipline and ignored the righteousness of the country was not a descendant of his Wang family.

As soon as the emperor saw Wang Depu doing this, coupled with Concubine Rong Guifei's repeated crying and begging, he couldn't bear to be angry with the Wang family anymore.

However, if you don't get angry, this punishment can't be saved in the end.

At this time, removing the person from the list cannot erase Wang Depu's guilt for poor discipline.

Therefore, Wang Depu was punished for one year and placed on duty for inspection.

The result of this disposition, to be honest, everyone is not satisfied.

But he was not satisfied, the emperor's order had already been issued, and the matter was settled.

Zheng is no longer satisfied, and he can't make trouble anymore.

The Wang family hated her to death this time.

Of course, the Zheng family didn't care about these, and she didn't make trouble for all the Wang family to bury his deceased husband, but she couldn't do it.

It's just that Zheng had a big quarrel with his son over this matter.

This made her really unacceptable and puzzled.

She couldn't figure out how her son could not stand on the same front with her, but asked her not to hold on to the Wang family?

Wang Changping killed her husband, her son's father, and now her son asked her not to let go of this matter?

Zheng really couldn't understand, for the first time in his life, he said heavy things to his son.

The mother and son were not in a good mood that day, and finally broke up unhappily.

After Lu Zheng's debriefing, he briefly learned about the current situation from the henchmen sent by His Royal Highness the Prince, and also knew that his eldest aunt had a feud with the Wang family.
