Chapter 56: Fainting
"It's good that Lin Qing is by your side, otherwise do you think your grandfather will agree to let you out? You have to glue these two mustaches to me, otherwise, you don't want to go out. ”
"Okay, okay, I know," Xia Qingqing waved his hand impatiently, "Go back, go back!" ”
Xia Jinghong saw that she was really a little angry, and immediately coaxed her and said, "Brother, aren't you afraid that something will happen to you?" As long as you're having fun. ”
"This beard, when you have a lot of people, it's sticky, and if there are fewer people, it's not sticky, don't wear it out, let's have this pink little face."
When Xia Qingqing heard his joke, she immediately blushed, "Brother, you know how to make fun of people." ”
Xing Guogong took the two of them into the palace to face the saint, "Weichen see the emperor." ”
"Get up!"
"The emperor's ministers have failed the emperor's entrustment, although the interrogation has revealed the facts of the case, but this, this." Qin Guogong couldn't go on, and the emperor saw this with a look of embarrassment, and hurriedly asked.
"Aiqing, don't worry, speak slowly."
Xing Guogong sighed lightly and said, "The ancients are dark under the clouds, and it is really good, then Liu Jing confessed to the head of the five products of the Criminal Department." ”
"It is his liaison with the second prince, and the minister personally led people to find the second prince's handwritten letter in the main prince's mansion, and he does not dare to make a private decision at the moment, and hand it over to the emperor for disposal."
The air above the main hall grew heavier and heavier. "I'll take a look."
Fu'an stepped forward quickly, took the letter from Qin Guogong's hand, and presented it to the saint with respectful hands.
The saint opened it and looked at it, and said, "It's the second child's handwriting, where did you find the letter at that time?" You have to be careful. ”
"The emperor's letter was searched from the mansion of the master of Wupin, at that time, this letter was hidden in a secret place, and the soldier's report was pressed at the bottom, and it was extremely hidden, if it wasn't for a soldier's sharp eyes, I am afraid that he would have missed it."
The emperor pinched the letter, was silent for a long time, looked at the credit and looked at him again.
Xing Guogong also felt humiliated, and suddenly his eyes were full of tears, and he said, "The emperor, the minister, the minister really don't know what to say, in the criminal department, there are people who exchange letters with the second prince and participate in this case. ”
"The old minister opened his mouth to defend the sinner, and implored the emperor to punish him severely, and the old minister also knew that he was guilty and was willing to reflect behind closed doors at home."
The emperor hesitated for a moment and said, "Aiqing, where are you talking about this?" Even if this matter is wrong, it is not your fault. ”
"According to what you say, the handwritten letter of the two princes was found in the man's mansion. I read it, this is indeed the second child's handwritten letter. ”
Speaking of this, the emperor paused for a moment, and then said with determination, "In this case, pull out the five main divisions and Liu Jing, and ask the queen of the autumn to behead, and don't mention this matter again." ”
"Your Majesty," Xing Guogong looked at him in surprise, "Aiqing, think about it, this matter has already pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, and many people have already been trapped. ”
"We can take advantage of this matter to investigate up and down, but if we continue to investigate, it will damage the royal face."
"Your Majesty, there are so many lives at stake, is it just a matter of cutting off a chief of the district? Is it all over for a Liu Jing? ”
"At this point, it can be regarded as an explanation to the people of the world, and as for my two rebels, I will definitely discipline them strictly."
"If this matter is too big, it will definitely affect the image and status of the royal family in the eyes of the people, so let's stop here," the emperor said in a consultative tone, but in fact it was full of non-refusal.
Xing Guogong's eyes widened, his mouth open, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and the tears on his cheeks became even more turbulent.
The emperor had no choice but to comfort him and said, "I will let the two princes be confined to the palace, copy Buddhist scriptures every day, and spend time for these suffering people." ”
"I will also let them do the Dharma for 7749 days, and as for the post-disaster reconstruction work, let the two of them be fully responsible, you can rest assured, I will definitely give an explanation to the people about this matter."
"Obey the order," Xing Guogong knelt and kowtowed helplessly, and then withdrew from the hall with staggering steps, and the emperor sat on the noble but cold wheelchair.
He muttered in a low voice, "Grievances, everything is grievances, and I am not good enough for them?" The two fought with each other to such an extent that hundreds of people were implicated. ”
Fu'an also comforted the emperor, "Although the saint has found the handwriting of the second prince in this matter, there are many people who can imitate handwriting in this world. ”
Speaking of this, Fu'an suddenly stopped. Hurriedly as if he had committed the emperor's taboo, he knelt down and kowtowed and said, "The old slave should die, the old slave should die, the old slave doesn't choose what to say." ”
"What's wrong with you?" The emperor sighed, "I also know that there have been many unjust, false and wrongful cases in the previous dynasty because of this handwriting. ”
"Do you think I don't want to pursue it? It's just that I don't want to get chilled the more I investigate. If you find out a mere five-grade chief division, you can involve the second prince, you say that if you check it down, will the officials of the Manchu Dynasty be involved? ”
"And how could it be so coincidental? This Liu Jing is obviously the eldest prince's brother-in-law, how much courage do you have to borrow from him, and he dares to collude with the second prince in private? ”
"This, this," Fu'an stammered and didn't dare to go down, and the emperor sighed.
"You say, is this location really so desirable? can make brothers kill each other so far, they are all flesh and blood brothers. ”
"Growing up beside me since childhood, I have always treated them equally, never biased anyone, and never treated anyone badly? Why did you get to such a state? ”
Your Majesty, this is obviously asking Fu'an, but in fact, Fu'an understands that he is asking himself what went wrong to cause today's situation
At worst, this matter is said to be a party struggle or to seize the heir, and at a small level, it is said to be a false accusation or a blame, no matter which word it is, it is a big crime to kill the head! It's only because the two of them were born in the royal family that they can escape this catastrophe.
Xing Guogong staggered out of the palace, and after boarding the carriage, he burst into tears. I can't help but ask Cangtian in my heart, is this still the emperor they tried to protect the throne at the beginning? Is it the emperor who is honest and selfless?
Why are you so soft-hearted today? The case was closed with the double beheading of both of them.
As if he didn't know the emperor, he began to look back on what the emperor had done in the past ten years, which can be called a soft-hearted sentence.
I don't know if the emperor is getting older, and his admiration is getting heavier and heavier, or is it because of some other reason? In fact, the emperor's approach is also quite indicative in some small things.
Recalling the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, the eldest prince presented a nine-song screen, and the second prince presented a hundred embroidered pictures.
didn't put the emperor in his eyes at all, and the emperor actually watched the two quarrel with relish, which was originally a harmless trivial matter, but now it seems that he is no longer in love with the world, but with blood and family.
Is this still the same emperor we were willing to follow?
"Quick, turn around and go to King Jing's Mansion."
"Yes, sir." The little guy replied.
The carriage immediately turned around and sped away in the direction of King Jing's Mansion. After a while, it stopped at the gate of King Jing's mansion.
The little servant looked back at the motionless carriage and said, "Grandpa Guo, King Jing's Mansion has arrived." He shouted a few times, but there was no answer in the carriage.
The little servant worriedly lifted the corner of the curtain and saw that Xing Guogong was paralyzed in the carriage and there was no movement, he couldn't help but be startled, jumped out of the carriage and knocked on the door of King Jing's mansion. "Lord Jing! Lord Jing, help! Lord Jing! ”
The door was quickly knocked open, and the little man who was guarding the door of King Jing's Mansion immediately held the person who was almost kneeling on the threshold and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The person who came said, "I am a little guy added to the Xingguo Mansion, and our grandfather fainted in the carriage, please ask King Jing to save your life!" ”
"Okay, okay, you, you're watching here, I'll go in and call someone right away." The little servant helped him to sit on the threshold, and immediately ran back quickly, shouting as he ran, "It's a big deal, my lord." ”
King Jing was in the mansion at this time, and the fourth young master Xia Jinghong was comparing fists and feet, and when he heard the shouts of the little guy, the two immediately stopped practicing.
Xia Jinghong took two steps forward anxiously and said, "You make it clear, what is the matter?" ”
"Young master, Xing Guogong, Xing Guogong fainted in the carriage, and now the carriage is stopping outside our mansion."
When the old prince heard this, "That's okay, hurry up and invite someone out, Xiaosi, you go and invite Langzhong," and as he spoke, the two began to run outside the house.
Lifting the curtain, "Oh, my old brother, why are you lying here?" Wake up! Wake up!
The old prince stretched out his hand and patted Xing Guogong's cheek, saying that Xing Guogong had no reaction, as if he had fallen asleep.
"Hurry up, hurry up, Jinghong, you help me carry this grandfather off my back and help him to my room."
"Hurry up, let someone call in a doctor!"
"Please, please, don't worry," the butler also ran out with the two of them and said.
A group of people were in a hurry, and finally helped Xing Guogong into the wing, poured water, and opened the window for him to ventilate.
The old housekeeper even took the cool oil and said, "The prince might as well let Xing Guogong smell this cool oil first, maybe Xing Guogong can wake up."
"Okay, try it quickly," said the old prince, who took the cooling oil and put it under Xing Guogong's nose.
This taste is extremely strong, it is made of mint in early spring, and a few catties of mint can boil out such a small bottle of cool oil, I don't know how many times stronger than the one on the market!
Lang Zhong was also invited in by the people in the house, and when the old prince saw it, he said, "Quick, quickly check the pulse of our grandfather." ”
"Yes,"
Lao Langzhong was not ambiguous, and went up to finish the pulse for Xing Guogong and said, "Lord Wang, Xing Guogong is angry and anxious, so he fainted angrily, some qi and blood are retrograde, and he has to pay more attention to maintenance on weekdays." ”
"You can't be so angry anymore, this time under the agitation, it will also hurt the meridians and liver. When you get older, you must pay attention to maintenance, usually eat more light, and go to the liver fire. ”
