Chapter 162: Who is clear
He Qing obviously didn't expect that the little girl who was respectful to him one moment would turn her face and deny anyone the next moment, so her face turned red angrily: "Where did the yellow-mouthed child come from, he dared to believe it!" ”
"If Lord He is not treasonous, then why accuse the monarch of being unkind in every word?" Su Heng raised his eyebrows and sneered: "For the minister, he doesn't know loyalty, and he frames the monarch, have you read all the sage books of Lord He in the dog's stomach?" ”
"The monarch is unkind, how can the courtiers be loyal?" He Qing did not show weakness: "Only those who are benevolent in a high position can make the world peaceful and supported by the courtiers." ”
"Lord He keeps saying that the emperor is unkind, where is the evidence?" Su stared at He Qing coldly and asked.
"These women and children behind me are proof!" He Qing's whole person was trembling with excitement: "If you don't distinguish between loyalty and traitor, kill him, what is it if you are not unkind?" ”
"No distinction between loyalists and traitors?" Su's smile was even colder: "Lord He, you are now a rebel!" As an official, you should not judge the monarch in vain, and you, as the head of the household, are not loyal to the king, but instead encourage the people to shake the foundation of the country and slander the king. ”
"I ask you, if the monarch is not kind, then why is the Lord still standing here intact based on his words?"
"If the monarch is not benevolent, how can the prosperity of this city appear?"
"If the monarch is not benevolent, why do students from all over the world flock to the imperial examination every time?"
There are many such rhetorical questions, but three is enough, and the words are sonorous and hit everyone's heart.
He Qing's expression was dim and uncertain, and he couldn't refute Su's words, so he replied stubbornly: "The emperor has forced the prime minister and the three princes to a dead end, the prime minister has been an official for decades and has cultivated countless students, what's wrong?" ”
"What's wrong? The emperor just wants to reform the system, what does he do to the prime minister? When a system is rotten, it is natural to inject fresh blood in order to make the dynasty last for a long time! In my opinion, the emperor is not only not mediocre, but also a wise man! Su Qingli's voice spread to every corner with the help of Zhiqi's internal strength.
"What a me, Mingjun!" On the side of the city wall, there was a hearty laugh from Emperor Hua: "The little girl's opinion is really novel, the old dynasty needs fresh blood!" ”
The bright yellow figure of Emperor Hua appeared on the city wall, and everyone knelt down to greet him. Because Su stood on the eaves, he could only bow his hand, and Emperor Hua was not angry.
However, when He Qing, the head of the household department, saw the figure of Emperor Hua, his frightened body fell back, and he said tremblingly: "Weichen He Qing greets the emperor!" ”
"Lord He, you seem to be extremely dissatisfied with me?" Huahuang smiled kindly, and looked at He Qing, the head of the household, peacefully.
With this expression, He Qing's heart trembled. These officials have been with them for many years, and they know the temper of the emperor very well. The more he smiled, the worse the future became.
Cold sweat was already breaking out on He Qing's forehead, and he tried his best not to make his voice sound so trembling: "Weichen...... Wechen didn't dare. ”
"If you don't dare." Emperor Hua took a step forward and helped He Qing up with his own hands: "You are already an old minister, if there is anything that can be played directly, if it is reasonable, I will definitely adopt it." ”
His arm was pinched by Emperor Hua, but He Qing still pretended to be flattered: "Weichen must remember." ”
"Okay, that's the end of today's business, Lord He, you can go home and recuperate first." Seeing He Qing retreat in despair, Hua Huang went to look at Su on the eaves: "Little girl, you haven't come down yet?" Not afraid of falling? ”
Signaling Zhiqi to put himself on the city wall, Su made a big salute: "The courtiers pay tribute to the emperor." ”
"Get up!" Emperor Hua helped Su up: "You stepped forward today, for the sake of reward, I rewarded you with 10,000 taels of silver, and the mansion of Princess Guining that was originally reserved near the palace, I also rewarded you with it!" ”
Hearing Emperor Hua say this, Su hurriedly thanked him, but the corners of his mouth twitched dissatisfiedly.
Ten thousand taels of silver, does she care? Of course not. Not to mention that many years ago, the income of Tianshuge was already in charge of her, and now Tianyao Tower is the largest restaurant in China, and Su even wants to open a branch in the imperial city.
As for Princess Guining's house? Sue was even more disdainful. Although Princess Guining's Mansion is in an excellent location in the imperial city, Princess Guining Gu Qiao is her mother, and it is natural for her to take her mother's house, what kind of reward is this?
Seeing Su's cousin, Emperor Hua smiled faintly and asked softly, "Little girl, you don't seem to be satisfied with my reward?" ”
"Don't want these rewards for the courtiers, the emperor will give the courtiers a small official position." Seeing Emperor Hua ask like this, Su also began to bargain.
"I will never change my words. Want to be an official? Emperor Hua glanced at Su lightly: "What you did today is not enough to change the official position, in two years you should have completed your studies in the Cassia Academy, and it is not too late to become an official at that time." ”
Looking at the figure of Emperor Hua leaving, Su secretly grinded his teeth. If I had known, I wouldn't have defended him! She's so idle!
Two years! It will take another two years, but she can't wait to enter the court......
The next day, the news of He Qing's death came from the Hubu Shangshu Mansion.
It is said that this Hubu Shangshu left a suicide note before his death, saying that he slandered the monarch in vain and lived in the world without face, so he apologized for his crime with death.
Emperor Hua appeased the family of this household scholar and rewarded him richly.
The people of the imperial city all sighed that the monarch was benevolent and righteous, and not only faced a courtier who had framed him, but also took such care of the courtier's family after his death.
"Mother...... This, this is the emperor's reward? He Qing's eldest son looked at the silver taels rewarded by Emperor Hua dumbfounded, and couldn't believe his eyes.
This silver box looks quite heavy, the waiter is tired and red when he moves in, the box is ajar, and the white silver is exposed to the sight, which makes many people red, but the silver is only the top layer, and the bottom is all sand!
He Qing's son trembled angrily: "What do you mean by this group of chamberlains?" The 10,000 taels of silver sent by the emperor turned out to be like this? I want to enter the palace to see the emperor! ”
He Qing's wife hurriedly grabbed her impulsive son, her eyes were slightly red: "Do you really think that this is done by that group of chamberlains?" ”
"Mother, what do you mean by that?" He Qing's son was stunned: "Could it be that the emperor can't do it?" ”
"Alas......" Mrs. He let out a long sigh: "Your father did that kind of thing, how could the emperor treat us well?" ”
"But didn't my father apologize for his sins with death?" Looking at his father's body in the main hall, He Qing's son's eyes were red.
"Your father is the most desperate for his life, how could he do such a thing......" Looking at her husband's body, Mrs. He's voice trembled slightly.
"So...... To put it this way...... "He Qing's eldest son's angry words can't be said well: "There are still rumors of the monarch's benevolence and righteousness outside, but it's all empty talk!" I'm going to...... I'm going to tell them all the truth! “
