Chapter Twenty-Eight: Face Saint
Forty-six days later,
When he learned that Tang Jianqiu had arrived in Beiping, King Chengxuan couldn't control it anymore, and he couldn't wait to appear next to Tang Jianqiu now, and ordered the other party to release Murong Jing, otherwise he would impeach Tang Jianqiu in front of the emperor!
King Chengxuan had already been carried away by anger, so naturally he didn't like anything, but he took a few trusted servants and officers and soldiers to Beizhen Fusi.
When he came to Beizhen Fusi, he happened to find the Jinyi guard who was patrolling, and there were several guards standing at the gate.
Now it seems that the security measures of this North Town Fusi are not very good;
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he felt, so he came to an officer and soldier, simply reached out and grabbed the collar of one of the brocade guards.
Jin Yiwei wanted to open his mouth to scold, but when he saw that the person in front of him was the king of the dynasty, he insisted on putting the words he wanted to say into his mouth, and then changed to a flattering smile;
"I don't know what the prince is doing?"
"I'll look for your pacifiers."
King Chengxuan is also a person who likes to go straight, and he said his purpose straightforwardly, and now that his nephew has been detained by Tang Jianqiu, he is naturally not in the mood, I hope that Tang Jianqiu will not know what to do.
"Okay lord, please wait a moment, I will inform us of the pacification envoy,
Who, you, don't hurry up and arrange for the prince to take a seat? If you neglect the prince...... Watch your head! ”
Although he has the same official position as that person, he is also a soldier, but there is a difference in this matter, as long as the other party's official position is higher than his own, he is naturally groveling, who made that person a noble county king?
"Yes! I'll do it, lord, please here! ”
As he spoke, he was about to invite King Chengxuan in, and he put on the most respectful side, for fear of offending him at all;
Even if this brocade guard was still a little unhappy when he heard that the prince was looking for someone on a special trip.
If he was doing something else, he would be very happy, and he was inevitably a little unhappy and complained when he heard that the other party was just looking for Tang Jianqiu, and now all the benefits have been stained by this guy.
I really can't figure it out, what kind of ability does this Tang Jianqiu have? actually asked the person who was the king of the county to find him in person, and his eyes were almost red with jealousy.
Forced by King Chengxuan's request, he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to pull down his son and go to Zhao Prison to find Tang Jianqiu.
At this time, Tang Jianqiu was looking at these criminals who were tortured, and by the way, supervising whether these brocade guards were lazy.
Especially for those who are already extremely evil, Tang Jianqiu will not be soft at all.
Just when he was ready to cure this human nature, the brocade guard who was ready to report the news came before, he owed a debt, and hugged his fists and said:
"Lord Tang, the prince has something to do with you."
"Oh? The prince is looking for me? Where is the prince now? ”
Tang Jianqiu was not surprised that King Chengxuan would come to find him, he was afraid that he came this time only for Murong Jing's matter, and nine times out of ten he came to Xingshi to ask for guilt.
He replied truthfully, "Now in the hall." ”
"Okay."
After Tang Jianqiu dropped a word, he hurried to the Fusi Hall in Beizhen.
Naturally, he didn't want King Chengxuan to wait for a long time, and almost all of them trotted over;
When he saw the visitor, Tang Jianqiu decisively paid homage and clenched his fists: "The minister sees King Chengxuan!" Chitose Chitose Chitose! ”
"Get up."
"King Xie Chengxuan."
After getting the permission of the other party, Tang Jianqiu got up, and when he saw that King Chengxuan was sitting, he had to walk to the other party's side, and said very respectfully: "I don't know what King Chengxuan is looking for me?" ”
Even if he guessed King Chengxuan's purpose for finding him, he had to pretend to be stupid, and sometimes it was better to be a fool.
King Chengxuan just snorted coldly, and then showed dissatisfaction.
He flicked his sleeves and glared at Tang Jianqiu angrily, as if he had done something unforgivable;
"Tang Jianqiu, you also know the character of this king, so this king will say it directly."
"King Chengxuan, please speak." As he spoke, he had already thought of the next countermeasure.
"This time I came to this king for only one thing, I don't know if you can let Murong Jing go, and this king doesn't understand why you convicted him of a false crime, he is the king's own nephew!"
Hearing this, Tang Jianqiu's eyes changed slightly, even if he had already calculated this, experiencing it in person and imagining it were two different things;
He took a deep breath and blurted out what he was thinking: "King Chengxuan, the reason why that super-feudal marquis became the main criminal of the Qin order is because he committed a heinous crime in this Xianning County!" ”
As a result, Tang Jianqiu immediately told Murong Jing about the various crimes he had committed.
The more he spoke, the more angry he became, but the king of Chengxuan was not too surprised, but as if he took it for granted, he said something that was indignant to both people and gods:
"What is this king, it's just a little garlic thing, Murong Jing is just a child, he is in a period of youth and frivolity, and it is natural that he occasionally makes mistakes.
Please also ask the king to sell a face, turn the big things into small things, and turn them into small things, and wait for the king to take them home and strictly discipline them! ”
If the other party just fought with others or other relatively small things, Tang Jianqiu would let him go for the sake of King Chengxuan's face.
But how could the vicious Murong Jing brutally kill Aji's family on the grounds of ignorance? What's more, this guy's crime is much more than that.
If everyone is like him, how can those who have died in vain in this world rest in peace? What's the use of this and the Great Ming Decree?
"King Chengxuan! The king's laws and regulations, how can there be a word for face? What's more, the Hou Ye has already caused people to be ruined, and now the evidence is conclusive. ”
King Chengxuan was very angry, he was the king of the county, and he had even deigned to take the initiative to find him, but this guy was good, although he didn't sell his face, could it be that Tang Jianqiu couldn't do it without him, the county king of the Ming Dynasty?
"Tang Jianqiu! How can you believe this one-sided statement? Murong Jing has sealed the edict and has the emperor's edict, what is the crime? The king's nephew would never have broken the law and done such a mad thing!
Besides, even if Murong Jing really had such a thing, it would only kill a few ordinary people! There's no need to make a fuss! ”
Once he was an official, he didn't see anyone looking down when he looked up, and few people dared to touch him when he was the king of the county.
Even if he is the emperor, he can't convict at will, and he is even more sure that Tang Jianqiu doesn't dare to do anything to himself;
Tang Jianqiu originally disdained to be in the same stream with this kind of person, but now when he heard what the other party said, he was even more angry, and he couldn't help but say angrily:
"The state has national laws, the family has family rules, and the common people are all equal, so how can we disregard human life? Ignoring the people, it is inferred that Tang is not convinced! ”
"Tang Jianqiu! Do you really not give this king this face? Beware that you can't afford to eat sin! Seeing that this trick was useless, King Chengxuan had no choice but to threaten Tang Jianqiu, hoping that he would not be ignorant.
Tang Jianqiu was not afraid of power, he had a righteous face, and said without changing his face: "Even if you don't protect your head against the head, you must punish that Murong Jing!" Moreover, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people,
Murong Jing's crimes should be beheaded according to the law! Whether he is a tiger or an insect, this town still has to be killed! ”
"Tang Jianqiu! Don't you dare! King Chengxuan was so angry that red blood took over the whites of his eyes.
"Why don't you dare?" Tang Jianqiu is frank, and he is really not afraid of offending King Chengxuan.
Seeing that Tang Jianqiu wanted to play really, King Chengxuan could only take the initiative to attack the face saint, "In this case, do you dare to enter the palace with this king to face the saint, everything will be decided by the emperor!" ”
He was still very clear about the powers of the pacification envoys, who could arrest anyone, including the emperor's relatives, and conduct private interrogations, and no department was allowed to interfere with any of the actions of the Jinyiwei.
In this regard, Tang Jianqiu agreed very happily: "Okay! In this case, then enter the palace to face the saint, and the emperor will judge the saint! ”
So, Tang Jianqiu and King Chengxuan both entered the palace and made an appointment to go to the palace to meet Zhu Youxiao.
At first, Zhu Youxiao was reluctant to manage the affairs of this dynasty, and usually liked wood carving, but considering that this matter was a little special, he agreed.
"Tell me what happened?"
As a result, Tang Jianqiu explained all the causes and consequences of the whole matter to Zhu Youxiao, without concealing it at all;
Every time he talked about it, he was filled with righteous indignation, which shows how angry he was;
Zhu Youxiao's brows tightened after hearing this, as if he couldn't believe that there was such a thing, but who would have thought that King Chengxuan would actually sue the wicked first, and said that it was the victims of Xianning County who took the lead in causing a riot! His nephew was also a last resort to take control;
Soon, the advantage moved closer to King Chengxuan's side, and Zhu Youxiao was convinced;
Zhu Youxiao felt that Murong Jing's move might indeed be a little inappropriate, but there was nothing inappropriate, so he hoped that Tang Jianqiu would not need to investigate further.
Seeing this, Tang Jianqiu hurriedly explained the reason for the matter, and accused Murong Jing of the various regulations he had committed.
"Your Majesty, this is the petition written by all the people of Xianning County, and please take a look, the piles and piles written in it are all complaints written by the local people.
Murong Jing's rebellion and murder of the people are already the common anger of people and gods, not to mention the brutal murder of Aji's family, if it is not removed from the deformity, how can it be announced to the world to uphold the dynasty?
The minister thinks that His Majesty needs benevolence to soothe the hearts of the people, in order to dominate the country's momentum, the momentum of the town Quartet, only I am bright, and maintain stability, so this party is the right way at the moment! ”
What Tang Jianqiu said was true, and he was filled with righteous indignation when he thought of what the thief had done, which was really intolerable!
Zhu Youxiao seemed to have some feelings about what Tang Jianqiu said, so he opened his mouth and said something like this: "Tang Aiqing, in your opinion, what are the rules?" Who should be chosen between the wind and rain and the national peace and security? ”
"If the minister is willing to choose the latter in the wind and rain, the country and the people, and the peace and security, the wind and rain are God's will, and the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world,
The country has national laws, the family has family rules, and the rules of my Ming Dynasty are set by the emperor, the emperor is noble, and the saint must be the rule!
There is no lie in the above, Your Majesty, you are benevolent, ask the emperor to fulfill it! ”
After speaking, Tang Jianqiu bowed vigorously to Zhu Youxiao, and his eyes spread with the righteous qi emanating from his body;
Zhu Youxiao hesitated for a moment, but he was a little entangled when he heard Tang Jianqiu's words, so he agreed;
"That is the case, according to Tang Aiqing's performance."
"The Emperor's grace is immense! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
Tang Jianqiu could breathe a sigh of relief, but King Chengxuan was a little unconvinced, he was about to open his mouth to say something, but Zhu Youxiao signaled that there was no need to say anything, let the two of them step back for the time being, and he still had to engage in wood carving.
Even if King Chengxuan was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to say a word, and he could only hold his stomach of resentment in his heart, for fear of causing Long Yan to be angry;
Tang Jianqiu was a little relieved, so he didn't live up to the unjust soul of Xiaomei's family, but in this way, it also meant offending King Chengxuan.
King Chengxuan's eyes also changed when he looked at Tang Jianqiu, as if he had seen the killing of the avenger, and he couldn't wait to pull out his bones! Eat their flesh and blood!
He swore that as long as one day he seized the opportunity, he would definitely make Tang Jianqiu look good! Avenge his own nephew!
Before leaving, King Chengxuan did not forget to put down his cruel words: "Tang Jianqiu! Wait for this king! ”
King Chengxuan left angrily, and the two were married, and finally broke up unhappily;
However, as soon as this matter came to an end, another incident fell on Tang Jianqiu, and this matter was relatively tricky......
