Chapter 15 Garbage to be cleaned
Li Yunqing tilted his head and thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's true, Lord Song Ling Gongzi is so bold that he wants to pinch me to death." No matter how you hear this, it is the crime of deceiving the king, and your lord is the dignified and upright minister of my Daqian Dynasty, so you should always know how to deal with the crime of defrauding the king. At this moment, Song Yu's body was already trembling terribly, and there was no blood on his face.
But I heard Li Yunqing's voice sound again: "I tell you clearly, your son can't die today, after all, he just wants to pinch me to death, and he hasn't made any substantive moves." After hearing this, Song Yu's already dim eyes regained a bit of brilliance, and he was about to kowtow again to thank him, but Li Yunqing immediately said: "The capital crime can be avoided, but your son is like that rat, such a person swaggering through the market in my Great Emperor Capital, I am really a little irritable when I look at it." Therefore, I plan to put your precious son in the prison of Tai'an Mansion, and don't come out and be embarrassed again in this life! ”
Song Yu closed his eyes in pain, he knew that his only son had no hope in this life. He was calm and still kowtowed to thank him, and in his current form, Li Yunqing did not kill his son, which was the greatest grace to the Song family. I only heard his frightened words: "Thank you for the emperor's grace, the son has no form, and the emperor can still let him live after doing such a big rebellious thing, and the minister is grateful." In the future, the minister will do his best to do his own errands and share the emperor's worries. For the sake of today, Song Yu knows that he can only keep himself, as long as he keeps his son, there will be a turnaround, even if he really has to be locked up for a lifetime, he will keep his official position and his son will not suffer in prison, and he may not be able to give birth to a grandson or something for himself at that time.
Song Yu's abacus clanged, but it was all shattered by Li Yunqing's words: "There is no need to run errands, Lord Song, you will go to the Criminal Department by yourself now, and it won't be long before someone will entertain you." Song Yu's body shook when he heard this, and then he immediately fainted, Li Yunqing's eyes flashed with cold light when he saw this scene, it seems that this Song Yu really has a problem.
Without Li Yunqing to speak, the father and son were quickly taken out by Jin Wuwei. Li Yunqing was silent for a while, his eyes fell on Sixteen Niang again, and said softly: "Sixteen Niang, today's incident has wronged you, I promise that I will never tolerate such a thing in the future, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver, make your tofu well, and retreat." ”
Sixteen Niang never thought that Zi was so concerned about her own affairs that she not only helped herself get out of the clutches, but also gave herself a rich reward in the end. One hundred taels of silver is naturally nothing to the rich, but to ordinary people like Sixteen Niang, it is a lifetime expense for the family. Sixteen Niang wanted to kneel down and salute, but was stopped by Li Yunqing and let her retreat.
After Sixteen Niang retreated, Li Yunqing closed her eyes slightly, and said lightly, "Girl, finish playing the song just now." ”
The woman in purple bowed to Li Yunqing, didn't say much, and immediately continued to stroke the piano. Li Yunqing's originally somewhat irritable heart finally had a trace of calm. From beginning to end, Li Yunqing didn't say a word, and when the woman finished playing a song, he got up and left, and the people immediately knelt down to send off their son, but after getting up, they were reluctant to leave for a long time. They had spent so much time with their son in this attic that it was like a dream to these ordinary people.
Walking on Ping'an Street, looking at the prosperous scene in front of him, Li Yunqing's brows became tighter and tighter. Because behind this prosperity, in that unknown place, I don't know how many shady deeds there are. Over the years, whether voluntarily or forced, the focus of his mind has been too much on the outside of the court, on the people of the rivers and lakes, and on the temples. Probably because he has a very reassuring cabinet, with three very reliable cabinet ministers. Wang Changling, Zhao Dekang and the other three are all ministers entrusted by Emperor Taizong, and their abilities are naturally outstanding. It is precisely for this reason that Li Yunqing was able to continue to have an unrestrained private visit to Weifu after ascending the throne. When he paid a private visit, the Zhu criticism of the imperial court would naturally become the blue criticism of the cabinet, and the ministers were all smart people and would never break it. And now think about it, he has been on the throne for seven years, and the evaluation of officials in these seven years may not be too lax.
But Li Yunqing let out a sigh of relief and said to Chun Yu Chang'an: "This house is too big, and the dust in the house will definitely not be too little, I have patronized and built a house all these years, and it is time to clean up the dust in the house." A cold light flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
Chun Yu Chang'an patted him on the shoulder when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "You don't need to care too much about this matter, there have been corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the past generations, and you know in your heart that this corrupt official cannot be killed." This is the human heart, as long as a person lives, he will make all kinds of choices, and corrupt officials have appeared. It's like light and darkness, how can there be light without darkness? ”
Li Yunqing glanced at Chun Yu Chang'an, and said with a wry smile: "I know, just like the garbage on this street, it can't be swept away." You've swept up a bunch of junk and a new junk machine will appear. But you can't ignore this garbage, and if you don't, the street won't be able to pass people, and it won't let the garbage overflow. Li Yunqing's brows couldn't help but stretch, since he already had a direction in his heart, he was no longer so upset, these things were what he, the emperor, should deal with.
Li Yunqing was in a better mood and did not return to the palace, but took Chun Yu Chang'an around Tai'an City. Although it was snowing, the number of people on the streets did not decrease, and Taean City was still bustling. There is a lot of heat in the restaurants, and the fragrance is long, so that Chun Yu Chang'an can't take a step, although there are a lot of food in the Mingsi Empire, but because of geographical restrictions, compared with Daqian, it is still much worse, and there are many foods and drinks Chun Yu Chang'an has not even seen.
After eating and drinking, the two of them continued to wander the streets, and night gradually fell. In the end, Chun Yu'an's footsteps stopped in one place, and Li Yunqing looked up and saw the three big characters of Shuyunxianglou on the plaque. Yunxiang Building? Li Yunqing thought back to these three words, isn't this the largest green building in Tai'an City? The matter about Yunxianglou is also very strange, Li Yunqing actually heard it from the mouth of the old eunuch Chen Zhong, Tu Nai is the favorite place for men in the imperial capital.
Looking at the girls who were as beautiful as flowers, Chun Yu Chang'an raised his eyebrows at Li Yunqing with a smile, and said in a low voice: "My brother Li, Daqian's food and wine are really extraordinary. It's just that I don't know how this Fengyue is, why don't you Brother Li accompany me to see it? It also allows me to appreciate the charm of the other things. His smile at the moment was a little obscene.
Qinglou, Li Yunqing has been here. I think that when he was only thirteen or fourteen years old and was still a free prince, he had the courage to come a few times. Every time I came, I was surrounded by a large group of girls, but at that time he didn't do anything, at most he just drank. Now that there are so many women in the harem, it is a little awkward to come to this kind of place again.
