Chapter 81: Repentance and Marriage
Faced with the benefits of this door-to-door delivery, Li Hao really didn't know how to answer for a while. In essence, Li Hao doesn't hate the life of three wives and four concubines, and he didn't develop in this area in the past, purely because he didn't meet a suitable one, and he married a noble girl in both lives, so he had to pay attention to the influence.
As a result, now Wang Chun suddenly wants to send his own girl and promises to help solve the troubles, which really surprises Li Hao.
After being stunned for a while, he was about to ask Wang Chun what he thought, but Wang Chun was stunned and regarded Li Hao's silence as a tacit acquiescence.
said directly: "Since you have no opinion, I will go back to prepare for this matter now, you can rest assured, everything will be handled by me." After speaking, he got up directly and said goodbye to Li Hao, this positive attitude looked at Li Hao was really speechless.
However, Li Hao didn't think that this guy could do this, after all, it was not easy to make Emperor Wen or Empress Xuan make an exception, and Li Hao really didn't think that Wang Ji was interested in him.
To say that people in this year also look at their faces, in the eyes of the little ladies of this group of high-ranking families in the capital, compared to Li Hao, Ling Budo and Yuan Shen are more popular.
Especially when Li Hao is now married, Li Hao really didn't take this matter seriously. But apparently Wang Chun really took this matter to heart, so after leaving, Wang Chun did not go back to the house directly, after all, he was ready to take the evidence with him to avoid accidents.
But he didn't dare to guarantee that he could keep it completely secret in his own house, so he used the excuse of doing errands, so he stayed in another house, where people had children who had followed the Wang family for generations.
Later, early in the morning of the second day, Wang Chun sent someone to the mansion to find Wang Ji. Because Wang Chun understands that although this marriage and the counterfeit currency eucalyptus are two different things, there is no evidence to directly link Peng Kun and the counterfeit coin, but in fact, if you want to achieve success, you must do it together.
Otherwise, in order to stabilize Peng Kun and prevent him from colluding with King Xiao Qian'an, Emperor Wen would definitely not let himself regret his marriage, after all, how can a niece be stable and important.
And in order for things to be successful, it is necessary to get support from Empress Xuan, and when she wants to come, Empress Xuan will definitely come to ask Wang Ji's opinion, so she must let Wang Ji herself be willing.
After all, Queen Xuan herself suffered from being accused of marriage, so to a certain extent, she hoped that others could live happily, especially when she couldn't let go of her children's marriage for various reasons, this emotion was even stronger.
However, Wang Chun is still confident that he can persuade Wang Ji on this point, because Wang Chun knows that Wang Ji's nature is not bad, and he has deep feelings for his family and parents.
And compared to Peng Kun, who is no longer confused, Li Hao is much stronger no matter what he says, except that Li Hao already has a wife.
In fact, when Wang Ji came over and heard what Wang Chun said, after asking her to marry Li Hao, her first reaction was not to agree or refuse, but to ask directly: "Father, didn't Mother already let me marry Shouchun?" Why did you suddenly talk about this, does your mother know? Obviously, in Wang Ji's heart, there was still a matter of Wen Xiujun in this family, so she didn't care about what Li Hao's conditions were for the first time, but asked if Wen Xiujun knew about it.
Wang Chun replied: "She naturally doesn't know, otherwise our Wang family will really be buried by her." As soon as she heard this, Wang Ji was puzzled: "What does Father mean by this, how can Mother harm us, and what does this matter have to do with this marriage." At this time, Wang Chun pointed to the pile of evidence on the table next to him, and said: "The things are all there, you can see for yourself what your grandmother did to hide from us." Wang Ji walked to the table with full doubts, saying that when she came over today, she felt that something was wrong, there was something that could not be said at home, and she had to call herself here for no reason.
And she also said to herself against her mother's decision, which is really too different from the father she had in her impression in the past.
But when she read this kind of evidence, she seemed to know the reason in her heart, but she didn't believe it was true.
So he asked Wang Chun with a trill: "Father, are these things true, could it be that someone else faked them and wanted to frame Grandma?" But Wang Chun's answer broke Wang Ji's illusion: "I have checked all these things one by one and made sure they are all true, otherwise I wouldn't have come to tell you." As he spoke, he stepped forward and took out Wen Xiujun's forged order and letter to Wang Long, and emphasized: "Especially these two things, you will never fail to recognize your mother's handwriting." Although she knew that her mother favored the younger brother of Xiao Qian'an Wang, she didn't expect that she would disregard the lives of her children and daughters, and the safety of the Wang family.
Wang Chun looked at his daughter and was silent for a long time before he said: "It is not easy for the Wang family to have such a foundation, whether it is for the future of you and your brother, or to preserve the foundation of the Wang family, it is time to make a decision." Wang Ji was awakened by her father's words and asked, "How is my father going to do it, and what does this have to do with the marriage just mentioned." Wang Chun replied: "I have planned to go directly to the palace to plead guilty, and take the initiative to expose this matter to Your Majesty, in order to obtain Your Majesty's forgiveness." As for this marriage, you should know that your uncle is subject to Peng Kun's affairs, and all the affairs of Shouchun are in charge of him, if he does not support him, your unsuccessful uncle and your aunt can make such a big move. It's just that Peng Kun is cautious now, so he can't get his evidence for a while, but in order to make a cut with this matter, this marriage will never happen, and I am reluctant to let you go to Shouchun, thousands of miles away, to marry a bad old man. Wang Chun's words were also true, after all, he was against this marriage at the beginning, and it was only under Wen Xiujun's strong request that he had to nod.
So Wang Ji was also touched in her heart after hearing this, and indeed at home, she was also the closest to Wang Chun, her father.
At this time, Wang Ji recalled what Wang Chun said just now, sensed that something was wrong, and replied: "But why is it Yuan Ziyang, he now has a wife, does my father let me be a concubine?" Wang Chun explained: "This is naturally impossible, although I want to save the Wang family, but I will not let you fall into trouble, my idea is to ask your aunt to help, and order that you enter the Yuan family with the same wife." As for why it was Yuan Ziyang, he was the one who called the police to me this time, and it was also with my help that I could find these evidences in time, and I was grateful to the Wang family. Second, in fact, what I wanted to find at first was not him, after all, even if the two wives are in the same position, it is not good to say, but I have tried a few families with the same family background, and the children of the family have not yet discussed relatives, but they ......" After speaking, Wang Chun looked at Wang Ji and sighed, at this time, Wang Ji could not understand, obviously these people did not take a fancy to themselves.
However, Wang Chun obviously didn't want to hit his daughter, so he said: "But in fact, it's nothing, Yuan Ziyang has personally promised that he really wants to marry you, as long as he can persuade the queen to support him, he will welcome you in style." There is nothing wrong with Yuan Ziyang, although he is slightly inferior in appearance to Yuan Shanjian and Ling Budo, but what should be more important to Erlang is his ability to learn, and he can be said to be better than Ling Budo in this regard. It's better to marry him than to marry those unsightly gentlemen, and "Wang Ji naturally understands this truth, but she still has some resistance to marrying and serving a husband with others."
Of course, what she struggled with was that she didn't want to be the same wife as others, but she didn't care much about concubines, after all, her father and brother had concubines, and she was very open to this matter.
And Wang Chun didn't persuade anything at this time, because he knew that Wang Ji would always figure it out in the end for the sake of the Wang family, but if he opened his mouth to persuade again, it might be counterproductive.
Sure enough, just as Wang Chun thought, after being silent for a long time, Wang Ji finally relented and agreed to the matter.
Then Wang Chun explained to Wang Ji how to respond when she entered the palace, and asked her to remember.
At this time, although Wang Ji had agreed, she was not ready for it after all, so she asked, "Are you going to enter the palace today, why are you so anxious?" Wang Chun explained: "This matter cannot be delayed any longer, because your aunt and mother are not secretive, and when I investigated the situation, I found that there were other people who were also investigating this matter." So we must seize the opportunity, otherwise we will not be able to clear our name in front of Your Majesty. After understanding the urgency of the matter, Wang Ji didn't say much, but followed Wang Chun into the palace with a lot of incriminating evidence.
In the palace, Emperor Wen suddenly got a report, saying that Wang Chun brought his daughter into the palace and had something important to report alone, and he was strange for a while.
After all, in his impression, Wang Chun went to the East Palace most of the time when he entered the palace, and even if he had something to do, he would play it in the court, and he would rarely ask for a separate report.
Because Emperor Wen himself was dissatisfied with Wang Chun's unworthiness, it was only because of the affection of the queen and the crown prince that he tolerated it so far.
And Wang Chun himself understands this, so he rarely takes the initiative to go up, so as not to obstruct Emperor Wen's eyes.
But this time, not only did he come to report alone, but he also brought his own daughter over, which is very unusual.
In order to satisfy his curiosity earlier, Emperor Wen asked the courtiers who were discussing political affairs in front of him to retreat first, and then ordered Wang Chun and them to come in.
As a result, after these two people came in to pay respects, they didn't get up, and Wang Chun opened his mouth and said, "The minister has come to ask Your Majesty for his guilt today." After hearing this, Emperor Wen immediately said: "What a big deal this is, if you have anything to say, get up quickly and say it." After hearing this, Wang Chun and Wang Ji straightened up, but still maintained a kneeling posture, and then Wang Chun replied: "The minister inspected it today, and the minister's wife Wen Xiujun teamed up with the king of Xiao Qian'an in Shouchun to mint counterfeit coins without permission, and the cholera dynasty was hereby asked His Majesty for guilt. Hearing this, Emperor Wen was also stunned, he didn't think that Wen Xiujun couldn't do this, after all, with Wen Xiujun's bold and unscrupulous style, he still had this courage.
It's just that he didn't expect Wang Chun to take the initiative to sue, which was really beyond his expectations. However, based on his stable political literacy, Emperor Wen quickly reacted and asked: "You came to report this matter today, and you have evidence in your hand." Wang Chun replied: "When the minister first learned about this, he didn't believe that the minister's wife would do such a thing that harmed the country, so he was suspicious that someone was deliberately framing her, so he took the initiative to investigate. But in the end, the evidence was conclusive, so I had to believe that she really did it, and now the evidence seized by the minister has been brought into the palace and is placed outside the palace. When Emperor Wen heard this, he ordered the chamberlain to bring in the evidence outside the hall, and then there was silence in the hall, only the rustle of Emperor Wen flipping through the papers.
While flipping through it, Emperor Wen suddenly saw the appointment mixed with it, as well as the letter written by Wen Xiujun to Wang Long, and immediately asked: "This appointment was forged by Wen Xiujun!" After receiving Wang Chun's affirmative answer, Emperor Wen finally understood why he took his daughter to take the initiative to enter the palace to complain, this Wen Xiujun's heart is really too serious.
Even if Emperor Wen is well-informed, he has really never seen such a person who pits his husband's family to death for his mother's family.
You must know that the law of the Han Dynasty clearly states that relatives must hide the prime minister, which means that between the three generations of blood relatives and husband and wife, except for crimes other than rebellion and rebellion, the guilt can be covered up and concealed from each other and not reported to the government; Criminal responsibility should not be pursued in accordance with the provisions of law for acts of accommodating crimes between relatives.
Therefore, in this case, it is very rare for blood relatives or husband and wife to accuse the other person of guilt.
It is precisely because of this that at the beginning of the original plot, Ling Budo was surprised by Cheng Shaoshang's decision to sue Cheng's uncle, as well as Cheng Shi's righteous annihilation.
After consciously understanding what had happened, Emperor Wen said: "I understand this matter, and then I will send someone to verify the corresponding situation, if you really have not participated in this matter, I will not embarrass you." After hearing this, Wang Chun bowed again: "Thank you for your kindness, in addition, the minister has one more thing to ask for, I hope that Your Majesty can allow the marriage between the little girl and Peng Kun to be stopped." ”
"Why does the Qing family have such an idea, although this marriage was decided by Wen Xiujun, Peng Kun is now guarding Shouchun, and he can be regarded as a big official. Even if there is a slight loss in health, Wang Ji will never insult the Wang family when she marries in the past, and her life will not be bad. And now this matter has not implicated Peng Kun, I don't think there is any need to annul this marriage. Emperor Wen said to the two kneeling below.
Wang Chun had already guessed that in the absence of empirical evidence, Emperor Wen would not let Peng Kun be implicated in this matter.
Because even if Emperor Wen was really suspicious, he would find a way to solve Peng Kun in a more peaceful way, and he didn't want to force Peng Kun to use his sword in vain because of his eagerness.
As far as the country is concerned, there is definitely no problem for Emperor Wen to think so, but it is definitely unfair to Wang Ji to do so.
Therefore, Wang Chun did not worry about whether Peng Kun was implicated in the minting of counterfeit coins, but directly put the news on Emperor Wen, and Emperor Wen's whole face suddenly changed when he listened, and the shocked look was a few points stronger than when he heard Wang Chun tell Wen Xiujun just now.
