Volume 1: Peach Blossom Chapter 010: Yang Liu does not follow (10)
When Shangguan Qi said in the end, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and his inner thoughts blurted out like this.
"Yes, I believe in you! It's up to you! I look forward to your good news! Emperor Jianwu breathed a sigh of relief, and his mood became relaxed.
Just as their discussion was coming to an end, a little eunuch outside the door came in and told Gonggong Li that the Marquis of Weiguo Liulou and Liujiaxuan had asked to face the saint. When Gonggong Li found out, he waved his hand and sent the little eunuch away, and then came to Emperor Jianwu's side and whispered to him. After hearing this, Emperor Jianwu couldn't help frowning and squinting, and waved his hand to Gonggong Li: "Got it." ”
Gonggong Li comprehended, quietly retreated not far behind Emperor Jianwu, and stood still with the floating dust in his hand. The eyes look at the nose, the nose looks at the heart, like a panting statue.
"After getting down to business, let's talk about your personal affairs. As the prince's son, didn't you think about it before you accepted that concubine surnamed Yang? Do you think that if you are a different person, you can be directly exempted from all punishments! Dare to openly provoke the law set by Emperor Shengtaizu! Well? Emperor Jianwu was really angry, and questioned Shangguan Qi loudly.
"Although it has always been in line with the principle that the people do not raise their posts and the officials are not held accountable, is it unseemly for you, as a descendant of the royal family, to trample on your own dignity? Contrary to Zud? Don't respect the ancestors? Shangguan is flawless, what about your heart? Your heart...... Shouldn't it all be given to the concubine surnamed Yang! ”
For the accountability of Emperor Jianwu, Shangguan Qi has long been prepared. His face did not change, and he replied to Emperor Jianwu unhurriedly: "Yes, Qi knows that he is wrong. Because Qi promised her at the beginning, how could he break his trust with her because she was a sin. Moreover, Qi saw that she was in a pitiful situation at that time, and he was careless...... Relentless agreed. ”
Emperor Jianwu was unmoved. "You are avoiding the important and trivial, I mean that you have to slap your face in the face of the concubine's affairs before you get married. You just want to accept her, can't you wait for you to get married before accepting her! You are a dignified prince and a prince, how can you ignore the royal etiquette because of women! Even the royal family itself does not lead by example, let alone anyone else! How do you ......"
Emperor Jianwu choked with some hatred, slowed down, pointed at Shangguan Qi with his index finger and then counted: "It's really smart, confused for a while!" Responsibilities as a Royal...... Where did you leave it? You said! ”
"Calm your anger, Your Majesty. Don't vomit for me. Qi knew that he was wrong! If you want to be punished, Qi will not say a word, and he will never show favoritism. Shangguan Qi stood up from his seat, bowed his head, and admitted his mistake seriously.
"You said it yourself. Go, go outside and kneel for four hours! In addition, a fine of 10,000 taels will be imposed for life. That concubine surnamed Yang is not allowed to show up in public, so stay in the palace in peace! Emperor Jianwu ordered without a beak.
"Yes! Qi obeyed. Shangguan Qi did not refute, and simply responded. He bowed to Emperor Jianwu and bowed, took three steps back before Shi Shiran turned around, and knelt neatly on the palace road outside the imperial study.
The reason why he agreed to Yang Luyu so easily in the first place - to take her into the mansion before his wedding. There are three reasons for this. One is that he really doesn't want to lose his trust, which is his responsibility as a man. The second is that he has some thoughts about Yang Luwei, and he will close the house sooner or later. The third is to push the boat down the river and let yourself leak flaws for others to see. The reason why this is so is that he doesn't want his reputation to be too perfect and too flawless. Because, if it is too full, it will be lost.
Emperor Jianwu saw that Shangguan Qi really knelt outside, he just pursed the corners of his lips and shook his head silently, and then summoned Gonggong Li to summon the Marquis of Weiguo to meet him.
Marquis Wei Guo was originally sitting in the side hall of the imperial study waiting for the summons, but after hearing the eunuch's roll call, he did not dare to delay, and walked out of the side hall with a shaky figure. As soon as I took a look, I saw Shangguan Qi kneeling on the ground with his back straight. He only swept it coldly, and did not stop. Holding the red sandalwood barge cane given by the emperor, he stepped into the imperial study with a limp.
As soon as he entered the imperial study, Wei Guohou slowly put down the rosewood barge crutches in his hand and directly gave Emperor Jianwu a big gift. He fell to his knees and bowed first. Then the left hand pressed the right hand, the hand was bowed to the ground, and the head slowly reached the ground, staying for a moment. With his hands in front of his knees and his head behind his hands, he sang at the same time: "Your Majesty Weiguo Hou Liulou sees the emperor, and the emperor is blessed with Jin'an!" ”
"Flat!" After the emperor called out at the right time, Wei Guohou still insisted on kneeling on the ground and did not get up, and he said to the emperor in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, please make the decision for your subordinates!" Your Majesty was slapped in the face! ”
"Liu Aiqing, I have made the decision for you in the matter of your beloved daughter and punished Prince Rong's son." Emperor Jianwu looked at his posture of pursuing to the end and vowing to give up, he was slightly displeased, and said with a frown.
Liu Lou knew that Emperor Jianwu was dissatisfied with him, and understood that his next words and deeds could not be too radical. He lowered his head to hide the unwillingness in his eyes, and softened his tone a little, looking bitter.
"Your Majesty, thank you to the emperor for making the decision for the little girl! But ah, the emperor, you know the grievances of the little girl, and others don't know! The so-called people are terrible, and everyone is the same, and some people will irresponsibly chew their tongues to slander the little girl! When the time comes, how can you teach the little girl to save face? ”
"Marquis Weiguo, if you have something to say, just say it!" Emperor Jianwu really didn't have the patience and time to grind his teeth with people in this kind of thing, and he was not in the mood to clean up the mess for Shangguan Qi.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has only one request - Your Majesty can't trust Prince Rong's son, just because I'm worried that Prince Rong will do things to spoil his concubine and kill his wife in the future, as a father, I just want to find a way for my daughter to live!" Liu Lou tried to express his concerns to Emperor Jianwu with emotion and reason.
Emperor Jianwu's cold face was dark, not only angry at the Marquis of the country, but also angry at Shangguan Qi for making trouble for him. He wanted to send Liu Lou away as soon as possible, so he happily cooperated with his words and asked, "What is the request, let's hear it first." ”
"It's that Prince Rong's son really spoils his concubine and destroys his wife, and his subordinates want to ask the emperor to be the master of the little daughter, and he can personally issue an order to divide their property and households!" The Marquis of Wei resolutely said what he wanted to Emperor Jianwu.
When Emperor Jianwu heard this, his brows furrowed even tighter. He looked at Wei Guohou deeply and was silent for a long time. Actually, he wanted to ask him back...... Is Aiqing's concern too early and too redundant? But when he thought of what Shangguan Qi had done before, he felt that it was not wrong for Wei Guohou to be worried.
The royal family affair was not divorced or divorced, but at the same time, it also created many unhappy and sad marriages. Emperor Shengtaizu was already in his old age when he enacted the law, and because he only gave three marriages in his life. Not to mention that Zhuang Zhuang is happy and happy, but it is also dull.
