Towards the end of March, Zhong Yi's other three sons, Zhong Yu's three elder brothers, have all come to the Xuancang Palace.

The Zhong family is old and young, and seventy percent are here.

Zhong Yu's eldest brother Zhong Meng's wife is the sister of Emperor Heng's general Wu Ping, named Wu Minhong, only Wu Minhong insisted on staying in Di Heng in the Zhong family, unwilling to leave with her husband, and when Wu Minhong left Zhong Meng to seek refuge with her eldest brother, she quietly took away her and Zhong Meng's two sons.

In addition, there is a female dependent and entourage who did not come to Xuancang with him, which is Zhong Yi's concubine and Zhong Yu's mother-in-law.

Zhong Yu's mother's name is Yun Shaoqing, why didn't she come to Xuancang, the three brothers of the Zhong family should be clear about this matter, but since they came to Xuancang, they have been secretive about this matter, and Zhong Yu's repeated inquiries have been fruitless.

Then Zhong Yu was angry and put his three elder brothers Zhong Meng, Zhong Yan, and Zhong Huan in the prison of the Criminal Department. When I learned the news, the three had been in prison for two days and nights.

The prison of the Criminal Department is not for Zhong Yu to vent his personal anger.

What's more, Zhong Yi didn't seem to be able to handle his angry little son, so he actually came to beg me, hoping that I could give an order to let Zhong Yu release him.

I called all the people involved to the main hall and gave Zhong Yi and his wife Bi Lanyi seats, and then the four sons of the Zhong family, including Zhong Yu, knelt in the hall. Although three of them were released by Zhong Yu, they were still tied with ropes, and Zhong Yu asked them to look good if these people didn't tell their mother's whereabouts.

Because it is not a serious court, Yanyu did not stand in the lower position, but stood behind me. Lei Nian didn't know what the bad taste was, he thought that the mess of the Zhong family was quite interesting, so he went to the corner of the hall and picked up a chair and sat down, sitting, sneering loosely with his legs slashed, waiting to watch the play.

I'm face blind, and now I'm face blind again.

The dignified lady on the seat next to Zhong Yi's seat is easy to recognize, Mrs. Zhong Bi Lanyi.

The people who kneel, I only know Zhong Yu, although the other three people must also have a sort, but these three people are all in prison with stubbled beards, I really can't tell who is older than whom, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother, how to divide it?

Forget it, love whoever you want.

Coughing lightly, I first said to Zhong Yi: "Mr. Zhong, it is said that I am inconvenient to participate in your housework, but since Mr. has come to me to call the shots, then please tell me more about the matter." ”

Zhong Yi sighed heavily and said, "Alas! Your Majesty, you really have no way to teach your godson! ”

Well? Finished?? Didn't you say something???

It seems that this old man doesn't know how to speak, so I can only change someone, and asked Zhong Yu: "Zhong Yu, you are the youngest son of Mr. Zhong, and the above three are your brothers, this brother and brother Gong is the most basic principle of being a man, why are you disrespectful to your brothers?" ”

Zhong Yu took a few deep breaths, as if suppressing his anger and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know anything, brother and brother Gong?" Zhong Yu has always respected his brothers. But how the brothers treated me and my mother, including my father, the Zhong family tacitly understood it, so why should Zhong Yu say more! Now that my father has left Diheng to join me, I am also willing to pay tribute to my wife and brother, but how did they abandon my mother on the way to escape from Diheng? Why is my mother gone? Where did my mother go? Could it be that Zhong Yu wants to ask his father and brother for an answer, is it so difficult?! ”

I thought Zhong Yu's appeal was very reasonable, and he turned his eyes to Zhong Yi and said, "Old Mr. Zhong, did your side lady leave Diheng and go to Xuancang with your wife and the three elder brothers of the Zhong family?" ”

Zhong Yi sat in the chair and arched his hand to me: "Back to Your Majesty, what Mrs. Yi said, it should be so." ”

"So, how did Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Fang get separated later?"

Zhong Yi hesitated and glanced back at his wife, Bi Lanyi.

Bi Lanyi was originally sitting with her eyes down, her hands upright on her laps, and then she turned to me and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Shaoqing was accidentally separated when we were being chased by the officers and soldiers of Emperor Heng when we were crossing the border. ”

"Is it such a coincidence? My mother got separated with the people in her room, and none of them followed? Then why didn't you get separated from your family? Zhong Yu stood up on his knees and glared at Bi Lanyi.

Bi Lanyi glanced at Zhong Yu coldly and said, "Madame Fang is scattered, and her loyal servants go back to look for her, and the people in her room are not with us, so why doubt it?" ”

"It's clear that you can't get used to my mother, so you took the opportunity to abandon my mother on the way!"

"You rebel!" Zhong Yi suddenly pointed at Zhong Yu and scolded, "What are you talking about?" Don't apologize to your mother yet! ”

"My mother has been harmed by your ruthless lady! You asked me to call her mother? Dad, I'm afraid you're confused! ”

Zhong Yi jumped up and pounced on him and slapped Zhong Yu in the face.

"......" I silently glanced back at Yan Yu, who shook his head slightly, motioning for me to wait and see for a moment.

Zhong Yi didn't get rid of his hatred after beating his son, and pointed at Zhong Yu and scolded him for a long time for being unfilial and rebellious, and after I saw Zhong Yu being beaten with his head crooked, his eyes were red and the corners of his lips trembled slightly.

Think about it, Zhong Yu's mother is gone, and if you want to ask something, she must be looking for clues to find his mother, but now their family doesn't seem to care about Zhong Yu's thoughts and his mother's life or death, back and forth, what kind of fame is this?

Could it be that just because Zhong Yu's mother is a side lady and Zhong Yu is the son of a concubine, can he be bullied so clearly and unreasonably?

Eh, with my temper, why can't I bear it so much?

Slapping the paperweight, I was still ready to interrupt Zhong Yi's reprimand, I was about to speak.

Got up and walked down the steps, I walked up to Zhong Yu first and said, "Do you know what you are doing wrong?" ”

Zhong Yu swallowed hard and said, "Use the prison privately and imprison my brother." ”

I said, "What about sin according to the law?" ”

Zhong Yu said: "Sixty rods, three months in prison, and a one-year fine." ”

I said, "So light? Are you not scolding me? ”

Zhong Yu said: "I only imprisoned people privately, and I didn't use torture, and there was a reason for it, not just to vent my personal vendetta." According to Article 172 of Chapter 43 of the Xuancang New Law......"

"Okay, okay, don't carry it." I interrupted him with a wave of my hand, and then said, "Okay, then this punishment is something you must take, and you can't show mercy at all." ”

"Willing to receive, never favoritism!"

"Good. Then you stand up. ”

“…… Yes? ”

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "One yard is one yard, it's your fault that you use the prison privately, but what's wrong with you looking for your mother?" Since the former has made it clear that you deserve the punishment, then you stand up, and let's talk about the latter matter. ”

Zhong Yi was still standing close to me at this time, and said to me, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

I smiled at Zhong Yi again and said, "Old Mr. Zhong, don't be in a hurry to thank me, I let Zhong Yu get up, but I didn't say that your other three sons should also get up." ”

"This ......" Zhong Yi's face turned pale and straightened up.
