Chapter 565: Hating Iron Doesn't Make Steel
After praising Erniu, Emperor Jingming looked at the prince and said lightly: "The prince is not bad." ”
The prince almost cried.
He didn't get more praise than Erniu!
When everyone retreated, there were no outsiders in the house, and Emperor Jingming took a deep look at the prince.
The crown prince was shocked to see it, and said with a dry smile: "Father-"
"How does the prince feel about this trip?" Emperor Jingming asked lightly.
The prince was stunned, and hurriedly said: "The people affected by the disaster are too pitiful, and my son can't ......bear to look at it."
It's not bad to know that you have mercy on the people.
Emperor Jingming nodded secretly, and said quietly on his face: "These people who have been affected by the disaster are all the people of the Great Zhou, and their suffering is the same as ours. Do you remember? ”
The prince nodded again and again: "My son remembers." ”
Emperor Jingming's words changed: "But you also have to remember that there are no rules, there is no circle, and the people affected by the disaster are pitiful, but how to settle after the disaster and how much pension money to give, these have regulations, and you must not increase or decrease them at will at will, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble......
When the prince heard this, he was angry, and muttered: "Zhao Shilang, that old horseman, actually sued!" ”
"What did you say?" The prince complained in his throat, but Emperor Jingming didn't hear it clearly for a while.
"There's one thing that my son doesn't know whether to say or not—"
Emperor Jingming was not so satisfied with the prince's trip, and said angrily when he heard the words: "If you have something to say, don't learn from those stinky problems of small families!" ”
The prince was suffocated, and his heart was aggrieved.
His father really didn't want to see him, and everything he said was wrong.
Although he was depressed in his heart, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and the prince said with a serious face: "Father, Zhao Shilang bullied the king!" ”
Emperor Jingming's eyelids jumped, and his eyes stared at the prince with heavy eyes.
The prince said indignantly: "There is no god who warned Lao Qi about his dreams, and it was the dog raised by Lao Qi who predicted in advance that there would be a movement in Koi Town. It's just that everyone is worried that the people of Koi Town won't believe it, so they pretend that there is a god to warn Lao Qi to dream......"
Watching the prince talk coldly, Emperor Jingming's anger rose higher and higher.
"Father, Zhao Shilang knows the truth, but he uses the pretext of a god to warn Lao Qituo Dream to supervise the imperial history, which is clearly a bully——"
"Enough!" Emperor Jingming slapped the table hard.
The prince's voice froze, and he looked at Emperor Jingming in surprise.
Emperor Jingming was already full of anger, pointed at the prince and scolded: "Bastard, you took a trip, and you didn't take the hard work and credit of the courtiers to heart, but you learned to sue behind your back, do you still have a little bit of the prince's belly?" If you do this, once it spreads, won't it chill the civil and military officials? ”
If the civil and military officials are chilled, who will be affected in the end?
The prince's hard work when he went out disappeared in Emperor Jingming's heart, and only disappointment remained.
Thinking about the praise and admiration for Yu Jin in the three thick newspapers, and then looking at the prince who complained behind closed doors, a thought suddenly flashed in Emperor Jingming's heart: Is it wrong to reinstate the prince?
This thought was immediately suppressed by him.
The crown prince has been reinstated, and he can't be tossed anymore no matter what, and even-Lao Qi's performance is so dazzling, and he still holds the god's dream warning on his body, is there no purpose?
The heart of an emperor is always full of suspicion, and Emperor Jingming is no exception.
In fact, Yu Jin's performance on this trip was too eye-catching, far beyond his expectations, and also beyond the expectations of civil and military officials and even the people of the world, so he couldn't be careless.
After reprimanding the prince severely, Emperor Jingming breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said, "Go back to your East Palace and give me a good reflection!" ”
The prince left the imperial study with a disgraced face, and scolded Zhao Shilang half to death in his heart: Old horseman, wait for the day when there is a reckoning!
There was no sound in the imperial study for a while, and after a long time, Emperor Jingming opened his eyes and said to Pan Hai: "Call your apprentice." ”
Pan Hai walked out, beckoned Xiao Lezi to step forward, and whispered: "The emperor wants to ask you about the Yanwang gods and gods who are dreaming to warn." ”
"Master—" Xiao Lezi stopped talking and asked Pan Hai for advice with his eyes.
Of course, he is of the same mind as the master, and the master's opinion of the Yan King directly affects his statement after entering.
If these people are already proficient in speaking skills, even if the great contribution made by King Yan cannot be erased, a slight change of words in some details can make the impression of King Yan of those who hear these words have a subtle change.
Pan Hai said softly: "King Yan is a sincere person. ”
Xiao Lezi immediately understood what Pan Hai meant, and whispered, "The child understands." ”
"Well, let's go inside."
Not long after, Xiao Lezi appeared in front of Emperor Jingming.
"The slave and maid greet the emperor."
"Tell me what you saw in Qianhe County." Emperor Jingming said expressionlessly.
Little fun began to speak.
Emperor Jingming listened carefully, and finally asked, "At the beginning, how did King Yan mention the matter of the gods and men dreaming to warn?" ”
Xiao Lezi hesitated.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, I just want to know the facts."
The newspaper is written by people, and he can only regard other people's eyes and ears as his own, and there is a lot of helplessness in this.
In comparison, the eunuchs around him can undoubtedly make the emperor more trusted.
Xiao Lezi then said: "The slave maid has inquired, in fact, at the beginning, King Yan proposed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should bear this statement......"
"Prince, he—"
"His Highness thinks that General Xiaotian's prediction of the earth's movement is nonsense, and refuses."
Emperor Jingming shook the corners of his mouth.
He could fully understand why the prince refused, because he was afraid that if there was no movement, he would take responsibility.
Xiao Lezi lowered his head, and continued: "At that time, the adults also felt risky, and King Yan insisted on it, so——"
"That's enough, you stand down."
Xiao Lezi glanced at Pan Hai quickly, said yes, and stepped back lightly.
Emperor Jingming's face was calm, and he was in a very uncomfortable mood.
Pan Hai persuaded: "Your Majesty, it's no wonder that the crown prince is ...... Others didn't have your discernment, and they discovered General Xiaotian's supernatural powers early on, so they naturally couldn't believe that General Xiaotian could predict the earth's movements. Wouldn't it be a joke if the crown prince had taken over this matter at that time and the ground movement did not happen......"
Emperor Jingming shook his head and said in a low voice: "The crown prince has less responsibility——"
Compared to the lives of the people in a town, what is a joke?
In this world, there are always things that would rather be joked about because they are worth it.
Even if there is only a chance that ground movement will happen, it should be done.
did it, once the ground movement happened, it saved the people of a town as it is now. If the earth doesn't happen, it's just a joke.
If the prince of a country is unwilling to take the risk of being teased by the people of a town, how can he do his best for the people of the country in the future?
Emperor Jingming picked up the teacup and took a sip, only to feel bitter.
Yu Jin left the palace with Erniu, hurriedly rushed to Zhao Shilang, who had stayed behind to talk to him, and almost rushed back to Yanwang's mansion.
