The gate of the Golden Temple opened. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
At this time, the eunuch who came out of the Golden Palace spoke: "Xuanwen and Wu hundred officials are here. β
The military attache on the left is at the head of the line, followed by Qu Duhui, although Qu Duhui is a civil servant, but every time he goes to the court, he stands in the queue of military generals, and behind Qu Duhui is Jiang Shuangtian, Ying Youhuan.
There are more civil officials on the right than military attachΓ©s in two columns, and the first ones are the left and right prime ministers Han Songluo and Wang Mingji, and you can see Liu Yuanli, the secretary of the ministry, and Liu Jimin was left outside the Golden Palace.
"Why is Jiang Aiqing making a lot of noise outside the Golden Palace, ah!" Yi Yanggao sat on the dragon chair without smiling, and asked in a serious voice.
Jiang Fatzi stepped out to the right, not taking the emperor's reproach to heart at all, and still smiled innocently: "Back to the saint, the minister is to see that the saint has not declared the dynasty for a long time, which is very different from you who were diligent in the past, so he was anxious and worried about the safety of the saint before he stepped forward and tapped on the door." At this time, of course, Jiang Fatzi knew that he couldn't call any more big brother.
Qu Dufeng secretly said in his heart that in the past few years, the grandfather of the fat country has learned to be smart, and he knows to step down for himself.
The emperor chuckled twice: "You are also called patting, I almost thought that any master had entered the palace, and it was also a worrying act for you to do it, so I will not cure you for the crime of rudeness, step down." β
"There is a reason why I am so late today, does Lord Liu, the secretary of the ministry, know what the reason is?" Yi Yang said with a smile.
"The minister is guilty. Liu Yuanli took out the placket of his robe, put the top on his head aside, and knelt down. He lowered his head and said in a slightly heavy voice.
"Aiqing, why is this, I ask if you know the reason, what kind of crime do you know. The saint still said with a smile on his face.
"The minister knows that he is convicted. Liu Yuanli still said simply.
"What is Aiqing's crime?" Yi Yang didn't smile this time.
"The sinner connived at the dog, causing him to commit a terrible mistake. The criminal has brought the dog into the palace today, and it is up to the emperor to punish him, but he just implores the saint to spare the dog's life when the dog is young and ignorant and does not know. Liu Yuanli's head was already attached to the cold floor tiles at this time.
Yi Yang glanced lightly at the eunuch standing aside, the eunuch bowed slightly, understood what the emperor meant, and said: "Liu Jimin, the son of the Shangshu of the Propaganda Department, has come to see you." β
Liu Jimin got a report from the eunuch at the door that the emperor had summoned him, so he walked into the golden palace with his head down, his eyes kept staring at his feet, and he didn't even dare to look left and right. Until he walked in front of his father, he knelt down with a plop and his knees weakened.
"The sinner Liu Jimin visited the emperor. Liu Jimin, who was bent down and kneeling, was completely wet on his back.

"Sister Amber, you said that your father knew the news that Liu Jimin, the son of the official secretary, had attacked me, what would he do to Liu Jimin. "Yuankong, who had just recovered a little, felt a little tired after saying such a long string of words.
Amber hurriedly took water and fed it to His Highness one by one, and said nonchalantly: "What else can I do to kill it." β
Yuankong coughed and coughed out all the water that had not yet been swallowed: "Are you going to die?" Yuan Kong said lightly, there is no unbearable, maybe it is better to say that he is not adaptable, after all, this is the first person who did not do it himself but died because of him.
"My Highness, don't be stupid, he wants to kill you, why can't you bear it. Amber rolled her eyes in annoyance.
This is really His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who misunderstood him in Amber, although His Royal Highness is kind but not stupid, for this kind of person who wants to put himself to death, how can Yuan Kong not bear it.
"It's not that it's unbearable. The more he talked about it, the quieter Yuankong's voice became, so small that he couldn't hear it, and he didn't know what he was thinking when he looked at the front fixedly.
Amber said angrily and funny: "This is a list of what Liu Jimin has done over the years brought by Sister Qiuzang, take a look." With that, Amber handed a blank piece of paper to Yuankong.
Yuan Kong saw the last one from the first article word by word, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, and he didn't believe that there was really such a person in this world.
Before he could finish reading Yuankong, he closed his eyes and tilted his head to the side. Don't talk anymore, Yuankong is eleven years old this year, and this incident can be said to have had a huge impact on him.
"Liu Jimin, the son of the Ministry of Shangshu, let the vicious dog bite his maid to death at the age of ten, and he was young and ignorant. When he was thirteen years old, he went back to his own field to collect rent, because of a little dissatisfaction with his residence, he connived at the evil servant and set fire to the family of the day worker, and he was young and ignorant.
When he was sixteen years old, because he fell in love with the heirloom of Liu Shang's family, he couldn't buy it at a low price, so in order to please his grandmother, he sent his subordinate Wang Qian to steal it, and was accidentally seen crying by the baby, and Wang Qian killed him in order to stop the baby from crying. It's young and ignorant. And wait, a total of twelve crimes, big and small, are all young and ignorant in the mouth of your Lord Liu. β
Yi Yang slapped the table fiercely every time he finished speaking: "Is this one by one, your son doesn't know about it, or is it your Lord Liu who doesn't know about it." And last night's attempt to kill the crown prince of the dynasty was unsuccessful, should I still feel lucky? β
Hearing that Liu Yuanli raised his head in shock, he knew some of these things, such as arson, which he dealt with afterwards.
"That's not it, Holy One, it's not like that. The dog didn't know the identity of the prince beforehand. Liu Yuanli knelt down and took a step forward, kowtowed and said.
"Oh, it turns out that I don't know anything about the identity of the prince, so you Lord Liu are all aware of the previous twelve charges, don't you say that your son is young and ignorant at this time? You are really a good official of mine, the parent of the people. The emperor said angrily.
Yi Yang no longer allowed Liu Yuanli to quibble, and convicted Liu Yuanli's father and son with the power of thunder.
"From now on, because Liu Yuanli connived at his son to commit a heinous crime, he was deprived of the post of secretary of the ministry, and the whole family was assigned to Hongzhou to fill the army. Liu Yuanli's son Liu Jimin committed a heinous crime, and he and his evil slaves could be beheaded for public display. The post of secretary of the ministry is temporarily vacant. β
"The Zhongqing family hopes to take this as a warning and control their relatives and servants, I don't want to see such a thing happen again. After Yi Yang finished speaking, two golden-armored warriors came to take Liu Yuanli and his son out.
The civil and military officials responded in unison: "My emperor is sage, and I will follow the emperor's teachings." "No one looked in the direction of Liu Yuanli, the former official and the current prisoner.
Yi Yang seemed to be a little tired and swept over the faces of the civil and military officials one by one, and finally glanced at the little eunuch, and the little eunuch said knowingly: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat." β
"The ministers are fine, I hope the emperor will take care of the dragon's body. β
"Retreat. After Yi Yang finished speaking, he got up and left the dragon chair and walked to the back of the hall.
