Chapter 148: Dispute in the court
Yu Wenrui killed a four-rank court official, which shocked the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the public.
Xue Ziqing grounded them in the post house, waiting for the emperor's fate, but after all, he was the prince of Daqi, and even the emperor had a headache, although Yu Wenrui's attitude was like provoking trouble at the beginning, but the emperor didn't expect that he could blatantly do this.
Naturally, this is impossible.
If Yu Wenrui and An Ruyi were killed, then Daqi might directly attack Da Zhou in a few days.
That's a prince after all!
But just swallowing his anger like this, it inevitably seems that he, the emperor, is too incompetent and incompetent, and he can't even do anything about the killing of his courtiers!
In the end, the emperor, who had a headache, planned to listen to the opinions of his courtiers, and the Ning Wang Party led by Heng Guogong naturally advocated teaching Yu Wenrui a lesson, while the people of Yuwang and his party thought that if the punishment was too severe, it would cause the two countries to clash.
The entire Jinluan Hall was full of quarrels, and the emperor, who was already in turmoil, became more and more upset.
"That's enough!" said the Emperor angrily, scolding the arguing ministers.
The hall immediately fell silent.
The Emperor rubbed his forehead and looked at the courtiers with disappointment, as if the light in his eyes wanted to see through everyone's mind.
Hengguo Gong lost his grandson, naturally he was grief-stricken, and he wanted Yu Wenrui to pay the price! But their unrelenting attitude made the emperor even more upset, because they didn't think about it from the emperor's position at all!
And King Yu's people advocated that this matter could be dismissed, and Yu Wenrui should be given a warning, otherwise if the two countries met each other, the soldiers would be injured and the money would be lost. But such a cowardly act, the emperor's face could not be hung at all.
His gaze was locked on Shen Kangzhi, who was standing quietly on the side.
"What does Shen Shangshu think?" the emperor asked.
Shen Kangzhi didn't expect that the emperor would call his name at this time, he stepped forward, walked out from the side, bowed and saluted: "Back to the emperor, Weichen thinks that Yuwen Rui is the prince of the Great Wednesday, so naturally he can't be punished heavily, but he can't go unpunished. ”
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and finally met someone who could speak to his heart.
He asked, "Then in Shen Aiqing's opinion, how should this matter be resolved?"
Shen Kangzhi said: "Yiweichen is foolish, and he can let Daqi redeem people with things." ”
The Emperor asked with interest, "Oh, how can you ransom people with things?"
Shen Kangzhi said: "Yu Wenrui killed someone and made a mistake, it is reasonable and legal for us to detain him, even if it is a dignitary of Daqi, we have to give us an explanation, if they want to go back like this, it is naturally impossible, and they can only exchange and compensate for the corresponding place or money and goods." ”
The Emperor pondered for a while, but felt that this was the safest idea for the day.
Heng Guogong said in a deep voice: "This is my grandson's life, he is the fourth rank of the middle division, your colleague! Is it just measured by money? If this is the case, as long as you give money in the future, you can kill people at will, what is the king's law in this world?"
After speaking, he glared at Shen Kangzhi.
Shen Kangzhi ignored it, just bowed to the emperor again, and retreated to his place.
King Yu saw this Shen Kangzhi and walked back silently, he stepped out of the queue sideways, saluted the emperor and said, "Father, the son thinks that Shen Shangshu's words are very reasonable. ”
Weng Jin, who had not spoken, also stood up: "The old minister also thinks that Shen Shangshu's method is feasible, but it is only related to the dignity of the imperial court, so naturally it cannot be measured by ordinary money, and it needs to be discussed by the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites and Tai Changqing to work out appropriate etiquette." ”
"Minister's reconsideration!" the people of Yuwang's party also stood up and said.
Anyway, it was King Ning's cousin who died, the people from the Hengguo Mansion, and for them, it was someone who could hit King Ning.
Seeing that the people in this hall suddenly changed the direction of the wind, even King An and King Yu echoed Shen Kangzhi's idea, which made Heng Guogong angry for a while, pointing at them trembling and unable to speak, his eyes closed, and he fainted directly.
The emperor was shocked, how could this Hengguo Gong say that he was also the abbot, so he hurriedly passed the imperial doctor and retired from the court.
Hearing the news that Heng Guogong had fainted, the queen hurried over, but was stopped by King Ning and walked outside the door.
"Xiao'er, why don't you let the queen mother in, go to the palace to ask the emperor for justice!"
King Ning said: "Queen Mother, don't beg your father anymore, the more you make trouble, the more impatient my father is with us." ”
But the queen said, "Are we going to let your cousin die in vain? Your grandfather vomited blood in anger! What a blow to him." ”
King Ning said with deep eyes: "Erchen naturally knows that his grandfather is distressed, but now that his cousin has been killed, but it is the prince of Daqi who has been killed, and it is impossible for him to resist his life with his life." ”
The queen listened to King Ning's words and also calmed down.
Indeed, compared to a prince, Gu Zijun is just a mere fourth-grade official, how can he compare with the stability of this country?
But the queen mother could not swallow this breath. The Queen's face was very ugly.
King Ning said: "I heard from the people in the military department that my cousin was calculated because he went to check the remnants of the Qi family, but Erchen felt that this Chang'an City might really sneak into the remnants of the Qi family, otherwise Yu Wenrui would not be so blatant, even if he was arrogant. ”
As soon as she heard about the Qi family, the queen's well-maintained face became a little heavy.
After a long time, she said, "It's the queen mother who is too impulsive." ”
Seeing that the queen calmed down, King Ning's face did not get better, today in the court, King An and King Yu actually pointed the finger at him, which made his father quite disappointed in him, thinking of this, his eyes were even more gloomy.
He said: "Queen Mother, now Concubine Shu is the most favored by the emperor, which is nothing more than being considerate, if the queen mother is still so stubborn, I am afraid that my father is becoming more and more impatient with our Gu family." Just like the matter of cousin, if the queen mother can be more generous and take a step back, your father will definitely feel guilty about you, and he will be able to take care of the Hengguo Mansion more because of this in the future. ”
Although Yan Xiao was very reluctant, he was very aware of his father's temperament, not only suspicious by nature, but also afraid that others would shake his throne.
The queen fell silent, as if she had listened to Yan Xiao's words.
There was no peace in the palace, and the gossip in the streets and alleys was spreading.
The common people are worried that this Yuwen Rui is deliberately provoking, but they are afraid that it will not be long before Daqi and Dazhou will cause a war.
This Da Zhou has not fought for many years, and when there was still General Zhenbei, everyone was not afraid, but now Qi Yi is dead, and many other generals have been suppressed, and now there are very few who can go to the battlefield.
At this moment, in the cloud mansion, Nie Liang was telling Shen Yanshu all the news outside.
Also sitting in the backyard was Qi Yunhao.
"Miss, if we blame Yu Wenrui like this, aren't we afraid that he will tell the truth and retaliate?"
Nie Dong was a little worried, after all, if Yu Wenrui wanted to target Shen Yanshu, they were afraid that it would be bad for her.
Shen Yanshu said: "Even if she tells the truth, no one will believe it, who would believe that Xue Ziqing would kill Gu Zijun in a good manner? What's more, even if I didn't blame Yu Wenrui, he would have wanted to put me to death a long time ago." ”
Qi Yunhao sat on the side, but said, "Yes, he is a very grudgeful person. ”
Speaking of this, Shen Yanshu turned his head and looked at Qi Yunhao seriously: "Since you know that he and An Ruyi are not good at stubble, then you still go to them? ”
Qi Yunhao's eyes flashed slightly, although she knew that she was her sister, she still couldn't believe that there was such a thing as borrowing a corpse to resurrect her soul in this world, she was now using a strange face, but her tone was the same as before.
He lowered his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "I have never been smarter than my brothers and sisters, so naturally I can't calculate them. ”
Shen Yanshu sighed and poked his head with his finger: "Who said my brother is not smart? If you are not smart, how can you study medicine so well?"
Qi Yunhao smiled, no matter what, it is best that my sister is still by his side.
Shen Yanshu looked at his face, and her smile became even more hideous, and her face immediately fell: "Qi Yunhao, hurry up and get your face for me, this kind of appearance can scare people to death in the middle of the night." ”
Qi Yunhao touched his face, it should be ugly.
He nodded in response.
What's more, with his current appearance, when he goes out, he will not only be discovered by the Daqi people, but also caught by Yan Qinghan and Xue Ziqing.
Thinking of Yan Qinghan, Qi Yunhao asked, "Sister, do you want to save Yan Qinghan?"
Shen Yanshu said: "Naturally, it is necessary to save." ”
Qi Yunhao said with some embarrassment: "But I ...... playing him like this."
"Don't worry, with me, he won't trouble you. ”
Shen Yanshu knew the concerns in Qi Yunhao's heart, he had helped Yu Wenrui and An Ruyi, so he was worried that Yan Qinghan would not trust him easily.
Qi Yunhao frowned slightly: "I heard that my sister is engaged to Yan Qinghan? Is that going to marry him? Sister won't want to use King Ling's power for revenge, right?"
When Qi Yunhao said this, Nie Dong and Nie Liang both looked at Shen Yanshu.
For Shen Yanshu, her death in her last life was a new marriage, because she didn't know people clearly, and it was also a wrong decision made to get rid of emotional wounds, so no matter what, others would worry that she would repeat the same mistakes.
Shen Yanshu looked at their faces, just chuckled, and said, "Don't worry, if you have learned a lesson, you won't make the same mistake again, and I'm not stupid enough to be this point." I trust him, but never blindly. ”
