Chapter 120: The Family's Attitude
Jun Zehu is a decisive man. Now that he had made his decision, he didn't hesitate a lot. Soon after Chen Buyan left, he let his subordinates into the study and whispered, "Tell them that there is a change, and without further ado, they must come to Qingming Pavilion immediately." ”
The subordinates knew the "they" in Jun Zehu's mouth, and immediately said yes when they heard the words, and acted according to his orders.
However, just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Jun Zehu behind him: "Wait, you show them this letter by the way." ”
——
At this time, it was late at night, and most of the people in the capital had fallen asleep, but there were also some people who tossed and turned because of a seemingly simple letter, and it was difficult to sleep.
Yuan Shilang is also one of them.
The flowers he has always played with have accidentally made people delirious, and it is common to lose half a life or something, but this time he played with fire and lost a human life, and the follow-up was not dealt with well, so it made the girl's brother make a fuss.
There was no way, Yuan Shilang originally thought that this person was like those people before, and he could settle down by giving some money. Who knew that this time he encountered a hard bone, which really annoyed Yuan Shilang for a few days.
But...... Yuan Shilang still had no fear in his heart, only felt sarcasm. These people really don't know what to do, but a grass people, do they really think that it will be useful to report to the government?
The next few days were as he wished, and things were gently put down as before.
However, the letter sent by King Chen's people tonight broke the ease in his heart. After reading the contents of this letter, his face sank completely.
He furrowed his brows, pushed the woman beside him aside, and then hurriedly put on a coat, his tone was a little angry, "Come on, hurry up and hand this letter to my father." ”
Originally, there was only a faint light left in the house, and the lights suddenly turned on, and everyone in the house was awakened. The master of the mansion woke up, and it seemed that it was still a big deal, so naturally no one dared to sleep anymore.
Soon the lights in the study were turned on, and the father and son of Xiangyang sat at the desk with heavy faces, and neither of them spoke.
The first to break the silence was Xiangyang Gong. He asked in a deep voice, "Is the source on this letter accurate?" ”
Yuan Shilang sighed and added, "Dad, this letter was sent by King Chen. ”
They were standing next to King Chen, and this letter came from King Chen, so there was little chance that the news would be fake.
Xiangyang Gong also knew in his heart that most of the news was true, and the sentence just now was just a fluke in his heart. After a pause, he sneered: "What is the grievance of the people, it is a good thing to say. This is just a reason why we have already regarded our Runan Yuan clan as a thorn in the side, so we have found out! ”
"That's what I see." Yuan Shilang echoed, the focus was not here, but asked anxiously: "Dad, if you want to deal with me today, what else can I do to get out of it now?" ”
If this matter was not involved in His Majesty, Xiangyang Gong would not have taken it to heart at all. But now it seems that it is a little tricky. Duke Xiangyang frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "Since this letter was sent by King Chen, that is, King Chen already has an idea. Tomorrow I will go to the Qingming Pavilion to listen to it. ”

However, the next day, the first sun had just risen, and before the Duke of Xiangyang and Yuan Shilang had time to go to the Qingming Pavilion, they were the first to usher in the Imperial Forest Army from the palace. The Imperial Forest Army surrounded Yuan's mansion, and then entered the mansion and came to Yuan Shilang's room. When he opened the door, Yuan Shilang was still lying on the bed in disheveled clothes.
When the person on the bed heard a loud voice, he couldn't distinguish between dream and reality for a while, and muttered and scolded: "Dog slave get out of here!" What to shout early in the morning! ”
The Imperial Guards are used to doing this kind of thing, what scene have they not seen when they were arrested in the past? Therefore, the person at the front still had a straight face, waved his hand to the person behind him, and ordered: "Take it down!" ”
It wasn't until he was dragged off the bed with his hands and feet tied that Yuan Shilang woke up from his dream. After he saw the person clearly, he panicked at first, and his face immediately tightened after years of experience. He subconsciously moved out of the appearance of the fox and fake tiger in the past, and said with a cold face: "Bold!" Who gave you the guts to trespass! ”
The Royal Forest Army's face remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "Your Majesty has a decree, Yuan Shilang disregarded human life and caused many women to die, and he was immediately arrested, and he was suspended from the post of Shilang of the Ministry of Households, and he obeyed the fate." ”
When Yuan Shilang heard this, he realized that this time he was no longer as easy as in the past, his face turned pale, and his legs slid down weakly.
——
The news of Yuan Shilang's arrest and imprisonment soon spread in the capital. There are almost no people in the capital who don't know Yuan Shilang. At this time, I heard that he was finally imprisoned, although I don't know what will happen in the future, but this is enough for them to watch the excitement for a while.
At the same time, in the Qingming Pavilion, everyone looked solemn.
Those who came here today are all on the side of the line, and of course there are some who have always been neutral before, but have changed their positions because of the style of His Majesty today.
The first to break the silence was Jun Zehu. Regarding the arrest of Yuan Shilang today, Jun Zehu was not surprised at all. He knew his royal brother well. Once Jun Zeci has made a decision, he will not hesitate to act.
Jun Zehu took a sip, cleared his throat and said slowly: "Today's matter, I think everyone is already clear, right?" ”
He paused, his eyes sweeping over everyone around him. Among them, some people once said to him in a compassionate tone, "They are born from the same root, why are they in a hurry?" They are all brothers, there is no need to kill each other like this", but is it not because Jun Zeci has not touched their interests yet? At this time, once they found out that Jun Zeci had already done something to the Runan Yuan family, this big family, they realized Jun Zeci's attitude towards the family, so they immediately turned their heads and came here.
The corners of Jun Zehu's mouth hooked a sarcastic arc, lowered his eyes, and softly read out a sentence from the book on the table: "Things must come, and there is reason." But the quiet of the world can see the subtleties and know them. The moon is faint and windy, and everyone knows that the foundation is moist and rainy. ”【1】
He paused and said slowly: "The development of things must have a certain ending. Now, no matter how broad-minded you are, you should think more about the way back for yourself, right? Only by thinking calmly can we foresee what lies ahead. ”
"Of course, this king is also a man with a big heart. I have gathered you here today just to find a way out with you. If there are people who are different, there is still a chance to get out of here. ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, each with their own careful thoughts.
Jun Zehu's words are good, but everyone present has bright eyes, and they all know that he is asking them to stand in line and make their position clear.
Jun Zehu had hinted to them a few times before, but many of them had always hesitated and did not agree.
First, because His Majesty is ruthless now, they may not be able to defeat him; The second is that the Yang and Liu families, who had asked Jun Zeqi to really do it, were not real families. They can still deceive themselves, Jun Zeci is just planning to kill chickens and monkeys, as long as they keep to themselves, Jun Zeci will not do anything to them again.
However, today, Jun Zeci wants to move the Runan Yuan family, which reveals another signal - Jun Zeci really wants to move the interests of the family.
Jun Zehu didn't rush them to make a decision, but he looked at their expressions and knew that they had agreed.
[1] Things must come, and there is reason. But the quiet of the world can see the subtleties and know them. The moon is faint and windy, the foundation is moist and the rain is known to everyone: from Su Xun's "Theory of Distinguishing Adultery"
The gist of it is that the development of things must have a certain ending, and the truth has its own laws. Only those who show calm in the world can foresee the significant changes that will occur in the future from the subtle details. It is well known that halos around the moon indicate that the wind is coming, and that the dampness of the stone pillars of the houses indicates that rain is coming.
