95 I Take My Blood (3)
The sedan chair carried Li Shiyuan and his wife all the way to the palace, followed by four or five guards from the palace, they were sent by Kangxi to escort him and his wife, although Li Shiyuan's martial arts were all lost, and he was disabled, Wu Qingluan was a pregnant woman who did not know martial arts at all, but after all, the two were serious offenders in the court, and Kangxi did not dare to be careless. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although he is young, he is old and scheming, far more than his peers.
The criminal department was about four or five miles away from the palace, and the group walked for nearly half an hour before entering the imperial city. Li Shiyuan returned to the palace again, returned to the old place, his heart was full of emotion, opened the sedan curtain, looked at everything that was familiar in front of him, the scenery was still the same, but the people were no longer the same, the rivers and mountains were still the same as the original rivers and mountains, but the master was no longer the original owner, thinking of the sad place, tears blurred his eyes, Wu Qingluan knew that he touched the scene, and only put his hands on his shoulders to show comfort.
The four palanquin drivers were very fast, and after a short time before they reached the main hall, the palanquin stopped. The eunuch screamed: "It's here, come down quickly!" Li Shiyuan and his wife got off the sedan chair and saw the sedan chair stop in front of the Taihe Palace. The eunuch said, "Wait, I'll go in and tell the saint." ”
Kangxi and the ministers are discussing in the hall, the ministers are quarreling because of a matter, divided into two factions, one faction is headed by Aobai, the other faction is headed by Kangxi, Aobai is in the limelight at that time, when it comes to excitement, walking around in front of the hall, the voice is extremely high and very loud, the whole hall is buzzing, Aobai is known as "the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty" Known as a strong martial artist, brave and brave, he puffed up his voice and shouted, the momentum was extremely scary, Kangxi was afraid of his obscenity, he did not dare to argue with each other, and the ministers were also silent, and they didn't even dare to cough, and they all lowered their heads to listen to him talk. At this time, the eunuch walked into the hall, Kangxi sat on the dragon chair and saw it from afar, and immediately asked: "Is it the third prince of Zhu who has arrived?" The eunuch said: "Long live Hui, exactly." Kangxi wished that someone else would intervene, so as to divert the issue and seal Aobai's mouth. Then he said: "Ao Shaobao, this matter will be discussed in the future, how about we meet the famous third prince Zhu now?"
Ao Baizheng was speaking energetically, but was suddenly interrupted by Kangxi, he was bored, and wanted to get angry and reprimand him, but in front of the ministers, it was too obvious, and he would accidentally be charged with despising the emperor, and he wanted to wait for an opportunity to clean up you, a kid, so he had to be angry and retreat aside.
Li Shiyuan and Wu Qingluan were summoned by the eunuch and slowly walked into the main hall. Li Shiyuan looked around the hall, and scenes from the past appeared in front of him. He remembered that when he was young, his father was in this hall when he went to court, whenever his father and the ministers discussed the court, he sneaked in from the apse, with curiosity, listened to the deliberations of his father and the ministers, once the queen mother knew, punished kneeling for two full hours, the father and the emperor heard about it, came to intercede with the mother, the queen mother spared herself, the father stroked his head and said, to read more, learn more about the way to govern the country, and grow up in the future to serve the Ming Dynasty and benefit the people.
The courtiers of the palace saw a man in tattered clothes and staggering, and a woman holding the man's arm with a shy stomach. The two of them looked around, neither kneeling nor greeting the emperor, looking like no one in their eyes. Seeing this, Ao Bai laughed and said: "What kind of third prince is this person, he is not even as good as calling Huazi, and he is not worthy of carrying shoes for Lao Tzu, and he is embarrassed to appear on this Jinluan Palace, come here, blast me out!" Li Shiyuan's eyes opened, his eyes were like two sharp swords, shooting directly at Aobai, and Ao Bai couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart under his fierce eyes. I only heard Li Shiyuan say: "This country is my Ming Dynasty, this hall is my Ming Palace, it was forcibly seized by your Manchu Dynasty, what is the difference between you and the robbers, and now the magpie occupies the dove's nest, but here I am like a master, shouting things, it is really shameless!" Now the ministers heard that he was scolded by Li Shiyuan, and their hearts were really happy, and they were all addicted, but they didn't scream, and even Kangxi secretly scolded in his heart, although Li Shiyuan's words seemed rebellious to him, but it was mainly for Aobai, so he didn't take it to heart.
Ao worship has been rampant for many years, everywhere I heard flattery, flattery, flattery, how did I expect to be scolded in front of the ministers, suddenly shocked and angry, difficult to stop, shouted outside the hall: "Someone, let this Han dog pull out and cut it with a knife!" The guards outside the palace gate heard Ao Shaobao's order, and a few people rushed into the hall to pull Li Shiyuan and his wife out of the palace and behead them.
Kangxi shouted: "Stop me, retreat!" When the guards heard the emperor's order, they didn't dare to move, so they could only stop and withdraw from the palace. Ao Bai pointed at Li Shiyuan and shouted to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, this person is rebellious, and every word can destroy his nine clans, why don't you kill him quickly to vent the fire in his heart?"
Kangxi said: "Don't be angry, this Han people have a bit of a reputation among the people, don't you want to see it." He was originally a prisoner of the ranks, and he could be killed at any time, so why rush at this moment?" Ao Bai said angrily: "Then follow the emperor's pleasure." ”
Kangxi nodded and said, "In this case, Ao Shaobao please step aside first, and wait for me to interrogate him." Ao Bai flicked his sleeves and stepped aside angrily.
Kangxi asked Li Shiyuan: "You are the legendary third prince Zhu?" Li Shiyuan arched his hand and said, "I am Zhu Cijiong." Kangxi pointed at him and said, "You saw me, why didn't you kneel?" Li Shiyuan laughed and said: "Kneel? You and I are both human masters, why should I kneel to you?" Kangxi said: "You are the king of the dead country, and I am the real son of heaven." Li Shiyuan said: "You are the Son of Manchu Heaven, I am the Son of Tomorrow, what's the difference?" Kangxi said: "You ......." ”
Seeing that Li Shiyuan was neither humble nor arrogant, the emperor couldn't answer, and they all reprimanded him, and some people said: "It is really arrogant to dare to talk to Banzai like this." One person stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, why bother with this person, and order someone to pull them out and behead them to show the public, so as to shock the world." "The crowd says a word, and the palace is in chaos. Li Shiyuan laughed when he saw it.
Kangxi's face sank, and he scolded: "Shut up for me!" Seeing that the emperor was angry, the ministers immediately closed their mouths, and the palace returned to tranquility. Kangxi coughed a few times and said: "The third prince is really eloquent, and he is really worthy of his reputation, but I am quite unwilling to listen to your words, but I want to hear your high opinions, you can convince me, I can promise you a condition, if you can't convince me, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
Li Shiyuan laughed and said: "There is no big deal except death, I am not even afraid of death, and I am afraid of a few problems from you, but please tell me!"
