Chapter 74: Bao Qing's admonition
The next day, there was a court battle in the Great Song Palace and Zichen Palace, and the dispute was about the candidate for the position of the Empress of the Great Song Dynasty.
In the end, Renzong agreed to LΓΌ Yijian's proposal and made Shang Meiren, who was pregnant with a dragon descendant, the empress.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing for the minister! I want to impeach Bao Qing, the official of Luzhou! Vice Minister Wang Juzheng said.
"What's the matter, Bao Qing hasn't gone to work yet?" Renzong was a little surprised.
Lu Yijian was unhappy in his heart, this Wang Juzheng was participating in the impeachment of Bao Qing, so he told himself, this Bao Qing has just taken refuge, and you will go to the impeachment. So he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, tomorrow the minister will urge him to go to his post, and he wants to delay something!" β
"Bao Qing goes and stays, whatever he wants!" Renzong thought of Bao Qing, but he was a little anxious about the case, because Bao Qing was still responsible for investigating the Plum Blossom Gang and Li Hai's case, and whether he stayed in Bianjing really had to follow him.
"Huh? Your Majesty, the ministers impeached Bao Qing for beating Lang Zhong Fei Lin of the Criminal Department, and openly killed a number of patrol soldiers in Changchang County. β
"How bold is he? But why? Renzong was puzzled.
"The minister also participated in the impeachment of him for blatantly bribing yesterday! Yesterday, that Bao Qing actually went to the minister's house to give a gift, and the minister immediately reprimanded him and threw the gift he gave out of the door! Wang Juzheng said.
"But the little porcelain vase?" Xia Zhu in the train couldn't help asking.
"Indeed!"
"Oh, if you don't want it, give it to me! The general's tea is really enjoyable. Your Majesty, have you ever drunk the tea sent by this bag of green, the minister looked at the tea leaves in the small porcelain bottle and drank less and less, and the minister was reluctant to drink it! Xia Zhu said.
When these words were spoken, many ministers in the train nodded yes, and Renzong couldn't help laughing when he saw this.
"This bag of green, I give you gifts, but I don't give gifts, it's really undeserved! Yan Wenying, go and reprimand him! Ha ha! After Renzong finished speaking, he didn't stay long, turned around and left.
Wang Juzheng was still a little confused about the situation, and looked at Lu Yijian, only to see Lu Yijian glaring at him and throwing his sleeves away.
At this moment, Bao Qing is thinking about how to meet Renzong at home, so as to persuade Renzong not to establish Shang Meiren as the queen.
At this time, Renzong's reprimand decree arrived, Yan Wenying scolded Bao Qing with a straight face, Bao Qing was depressed in his heart, this is to be scolded by the order!
After wrapping up the green rice, he entered the palace with nine bottles of fried tea leaves.
"Not bad, good tea! Send me more in the future! Renzong said.
"Your Majesty, here, in a few days, there will be a treasure teahouse opened in the north of the city, and when the time comes, Your Majesty can buy it!"
"You told me to buy it? Good! Did you open this teahouse? You want me to go to the show, don't you? β
"If Your Majesty goes to the party, this tea will be covered by Bao Tea House in the future. Of course, if he can leave some ink treasures, Bao Qing is grateful. β
"You kid, you actually climbed up the pole!"
"Your Majesty, the minister seems to be worried when he sees His Majesty, why don't you tell a story for Your Majesty's pastime?"
"Oh? Let's talk about it! β
It is said that once upon a time there was a temple where the incense was not prosperous, and the presiding officer of this temple was very worried. One day, a Taoist priest came and said to the host, you have no Bodhisattva in this temple, and of course there is no incense. The Taoist priest asked the host to give him a lot of money, and he helped the host invite the Bodhisattva to come. So, the Taoist priest drew a circle of land a few feet in front of the temple, saying that there would be a Bodhisattva here. β
"Oh? And God? β
Sure enough, within a few days, bodhisattvas grew on the ground in front of this temple, and some grew every day. The host was shocked and hurriedly kowtowed and chanted. This attracted many villagers to come and worship. The bodhisattvas on this earth are constantly breaking through the ground, which is truly amazing. β
"Oh? How did this Taoist priest do it! Renzong obviously didn't believe that there really was a bodhisattva in the story, who slowly grew out of the ground every day.
"Your Majesty is really a god, and you can guess at once, this must not be a true Bodhisattva! But the presiding officer and the people were respectful and worshipful. β
"These people may not be able to distinguish when they are in it, if an outsider is observing, he will definitely know that there are ghosts in it, but I really don't know how this Taoist priest did it."
"It's very simple, put soybean seeds under this Bodhisattva, and every day when the rain and dew fall, this bean sprouts sprout, and the small bean sprouts can arch out the huge Bodhisattva!"
"Oh, I see, I really don't know!"
"Therefore, what Your Majesty sees may not be true, only the bystanders are clear! Sometimes, it is precisely because of the calculations of the artificial organs that many people do not see the truth! β
"Oh?" Renzong looked at Bao Qing with some doubts, and couldn't help but think of the matter of abolishing the queen that he had been bothering recently.
"Your Majesty, the minister is versatile, and the minister can also pinch his fingers and tell hexagrams!"
"You bag of green, come to fool me again!"
"Really, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can give it a try!"
"Good! Let's give it a try! Renzong said with a smile.
Bao Qing pretended to pinch his fingers and calculate, and suddenly his face changed drastically and said, "Your Majesty, woe!" β
"What misfortune?" Renzong didn't believe it.
"This, if the minister says, Your Majesty will forgive the minister's sin of false words!"
"Say, I forgive you not guilty!"
"Your Majesty, within a month, there will be a dragon son who will die!" Bao Qing suddenly lowered his voice and said.
"Nonsense, where do I have an heir now!" This Renzong was about to laugh at Bao Qing, but suddenly he thought of Shang Meiren carrying a dragon, and couldn't help but be furious, "Bastard, you dare to curse my dragon!" Someone, someone! Drag it out! β
When Bao Qing heard this, he was so frightened that he was smoking, this joke was too big, how could this emperor's old man not count when he spoke, didn't he just say that he wanted to forgive his sin of false words?
As soon as Renzong's voice fell, as soon as the outside door opened, Yan Wenying rushed in with two forbidden soldiers and directly dragged Bao Qing away.
"Wait!" Renzong pondered for a moment, and then said: "Bao Qing, write down this sin first, if your fortune calculation is not accurate, I will kill your whole family!" β
After Bao Qing left, Renzong sat alone in the main hall, thinking about it for a long time, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, this Bao Qing seemed to be here to advise today.
Suddenly, Renzong stood up, pushed all the things on the desk to the ground, and scolded in his mouth: "These beasts, I want to see who dares to bully me!" β
As soon as Bao Qing left the palace with his front foot, Yan Wenying informed Lu Yijian that Bao Qing was almost dragged out and beheaded.
After Bao Qing went back, on the one hand, he was preparing for the opening of the teahouse, and on the other hand, he laughed and enjoyed with the women, so much so that he really forgot that he still had to investigate the case.
Three days later, a holy decree suddenly arrived, and Bao Qing was a little enlightened after hearing the holy decree, and the holy decree asked him to leave for his post immediately, and he was not allowed to return to Beijing without being called.
"What does it mean to be an official? Tomorrow is the day when our Bao Tea House opens, hum! Bao Liuwen said angrily.
Bao Qing knew very well in his heart that he was very accurate in his calculations, afraid that Shang Meiren was going to be unlucky.
Sure enough, on the second day after Bao Qing left the capital, Shang Meiren was suddenly beaten into the cold palace, Lu Yijian and others were completely panicked, and they played one after another, and the queen's position should be chosen by someone else.
