The happy life of the devil and the devil

"I heard that the people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and peaceful. I also heard that although small and large prisons cannot be detected, they must be treated with affection. This loyal family can fight a battle. Therefore, Shang Jun erected trees in the southern city and became the unified Qin State. Industry; the three chapters of the Gaozu's law, which established the foundation of the Han Dynasty for a hundred years. My emperor loves and educates the people, affirms the laws, and the laws are clear, and the people will be safe. After that, the fields will be accumulated, the land will be vast and the country will be rich, and the people of the country will be satisfied. Use the people to do their best. blame.

There was Aletai, the captain of the Frostwolf Guard, who raped and humiliated the women of the people, causing her to commit suicide in shame and indignation.Together with five of his guards, Ren Daoqing, the son of Wailang Renming, a member of the Ministry of War, Li Tong, the officer of the Guangwu Guard who joined the army, and more than [-] family members, he beat and injured many people...

The armies of the Frostwolf Guard, Guangwu Guard, and Shenwu Guard are even more skilled at using weapons, robbing people and criminals, and regard the law as nothing.When I heard this, I was astonished..."

"what are you writing?"

A hand suddenly stretched out from behind, pinched the barrel of the pen and swished it upwards.Ling Yucheng grasped it reflexively, and almost saved the pen tip from drawing an ink mark on the palm of his hand. Even so, a large drop of ink splashed on the paper, and the paper just written was stained. It was badly damaged.

"I'm writing a memorial." The memorial seemed impossible to write, so Ling Yucheng simply put down his pen and turned his head. "Your Majesty should have heard about what happened before. It's okay to rape women and beat people, but you can even send troops to snatch criminals. You are so lawless. I really admire you. I have to tell Your Majesty..."

"It's over." Yuan Shao picked up the half-written memorial on the table, and quickly glanced at it. "Didn't you deliberately make things worse? You didn't miss a moment to let them go home and call for help. Could there be such a thing?"

"Your Majesty can't wrong people." Ling Yucheng spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and looked extremely innocent, "I don't have the ability to let them lead soldiers to rob people! Whose children will go to court and go to jail , must not send a letter to the family, let the family send someone to take care of it?"

"You!" Yuan Shao pointed at him and shook his head again and again, "The next thing you have to tell me is that the team of Xuanjia guards coming up from behind, you didn't ambush there in advance?"

"The barracks are right there, and I don't even have time to move overnight!"

Yuan Shao laughed.Ling Yucheng's rounds were interlocking. One side let people out, and the other side sent people to call the yamen servants.The poor group of Shenwuwei, Frostwolfwei, and Guangwuwei sent soldiers here in a hurry, thinking that the big deal would be to fight Xuanjiawei and snatch their children back.In the end, it hit the iron plate—the two armies fought privately every year, as long as it wasn’t too extreme, the emperor would turn a blind eye and close his eyes, but the big hat of ignoring the law and robbing criminals was buckled down...

It really makes people shed tears of sympathy for them.

"This net caught three big fish, is your net strong enough?"

"Why did your majesty say that? They have run into your majesty's legal net, so what have you got to do with me?"

"So you wrote the memorial yourself to impeach them?"

"Isn't there no way I can do this. I'm not like those big families who can just find a censor or something. Who has the right to directly write a letter to His Majesty? I can only do it myself." From drafting to Shangzuo, I can do it all by myself..."

"And then? Are you going to take it out of your sleeve at the court meeting and hand it directly to me?" Yuan Shao glanced over angrily.For the convenience of movement, Ling Yucheng is dressed in tight-fitting and narrow-sleeved clothes no matter whether it is military uniform or court clothes. It is hard to imagine that he can take out a memorial from the cuffs that are close to the wrist, "Or take it out from his arms?"

It's all ugly, right?

"..." Now that I have written the words and handed them to him, I feel a little less imposing... It doesn't look like handing out a memorial to impeach someone, but like studying in the East Pavilion of the Taiyuan Academy when I was a teenager, passing the novel to my classmates behind the teacher's back in class. like a note...

Yuan Shao casually stacked the memorials and threw them on the table. "You don't need to come forward about this matter, I will ask someone to write it up and hand it over later. It's so late, let's go to dinner!"

"Chen Zunzhi..." So you waited for me to eat and no one came to look for me!

Stepping across the threshold of the study one after the other, Yuan Shao suddenly stopped and turned around, and punched Ling Yucheng on the shoulder with a smile:

"Although it's late, I still have to say—good job!"

Although he is an emperor, Yuan Shao's daily food and clothing are not extravagant. At this time, there is only one roast leg of lamb, a first-grade deer tendon, a large bowl of roast goose, two or three kinds of vegetable dishes and a large pot of soup on the table.There are not many dishes, but there are three staple foods listed on one small table, a pot of fragrant white rice, a large stack of freshly baked pancakes, and a deep pot of hot noodle soup.Yuan Shao first poured himself a glass of kumiss, then raised his head to dry it, glanced at the table, and then called the inner eunuch who was waiting outside: "Send this deer tendon to the prince."

"Abiding by the order—"

The so-called rewarding dishes to the prince's ministers is of course not taken directly from His Majesty's dining table and sent to them.There are always two sets of imperial meals, and when Yuan Shao orders something, the imperial kitchen will immediately pack the other one and send it away.In the past two years, Ling Yucheng also saw that Yuan Shao had rewarded the imperial meal many times. The crown prince, princess, King Kang and even the ministers all had a share, so he didn't take it seriously at the moment, and filled a big bowl of rice for himself, and sat opposite Yuan Shao. down.

Yuan Shao had no interest in rice, so he picked out a bowl of noodles first, then sliced ​​open the pancake with a knife, put a few slices of roasted lamb in, and ate deliciously with chopsticks in one hand and meatloaf in the other.After a few mouthfuls, he tasted another piece of roast goose, and suddenly called someone in again and said, "Give this to Xiao Shiyi." The chopsticks tapped on the roast goose.

"Abiding by the order—"

"Wait!"

Facing Yuan Shao's surprised gaze, Ling Yucheng turned his head to look at the little eunuch who was about to go out after receiving the order, and slowly said word by word: "Tell Lang'er that this dish is easy to get cold, remember to eat it after it is hot. And , don’t force yourself if you can’t eat, eat as much as you can. That’s it, go.”

"Abiding by the order—"

"..."

The little eunuch withdrew for a long time before Yuan Shao looked away, his tone still not without surprise: "You don't think Lang'er doesn't understand this, do you? Even if he doesn't understand, all the female officials and eunuchs he served are dead?"

"Isn't the meal given by His Majesty to be finished soon?"

Seeing that Ling Yucheng was even more surprised than him, Yuan Shao finally found out what was wrong. "Wait--you used to say that Emperor Yu Xia rewarded dishes, no matter how many rewards you have to eat immediately? Have you suffered this before?"

"I'm not so honored." Ling Yucheng nodded and shook his head with concern. "It's the scene—it's His Royal Highness Duan Wang. At the birthday banquet of His Royal Highness Duan Wang, the minister accompanied me and saw the emperor gifted four bowls of food. It's a pity that it's all big fish and meat. It's cold all the way out of the palace. Now, the white flowers on the top are frozen with a layer of oil, and King Duan has to kneel down immediately to thank him, eat cleanly in front of the envoys and guests, and then kowtow towards Miyagi to thank him..." Rubbing his arms involuntarily , shook his head again.

...It really hurts his stomach just listening to it.This is also called a reward, it is basically torturing people, okay? "So hurry up and send a message to tell me? Are you afraid that your precious apprentice will suffer?"

"I don't know, sir..." Ling Yucheng lowered his head and sneered, lifted the jug, and poured a full glass for Yuan Shao.The aroma of the wine is rippling, and the sweet and fragrant scent of kumiss has been unaccustomed to me before, but now I smell it, and I feel a little bit drunk.

Yuan Shao's actions were quick. On the day when the newly appointed Concubine Kang returned home for three dynasties - far away in a foreign country, she could only use the embassy as her mother's home - the imperial censor handed over the papers of impeachment.

The censor, who was instructed by the emperor, really wrote a thousand words, and described the behavior of a group of dandies and their families to the indignation of the gods and the indignation of the gods.The censor in charge of impeachment held the memorial and recited vigorously, shaking his head and tail. Ling Yucheng sat upright beside Yuan Shao, his eyes fell in the far, far away void, as if nothing happened to him from the beginning to the end.

This memorial was indeed well written, not to mention Xuanjiawei, who didn't even have the word "black".Zuo Zhu Guozong Rang, Right Privy Envoy Li Bingguo and others sitting on both sides all had delicate expressions, sincere and fearful on their faces, and secretly muttered in their stomachs: Pretend, pretend again!Who doesn't know that you are venting your anger for your subordinates. Didn't you just beat up a few farmers in your village and sleep with the fiancée of a soldier under your command? As for such a big deal!

No matter how much he muttered, the heads of Shenwuwei, Frostwolfwei, Guangwuwei, and Hussarwei who had caused trouble in Beijing still had to bite the bullet and come forward to apologize.Seven or eight people knelt down in a row in front of the imperial court. Yuan Shao raised his hand and called Zuo Zhu Guozong Rang and Hussar General Zong Qing:

"Uncle, please get up, General Zong, you get up too. There are no hussars in the team that sent troops to rob prisoners. As for children causing trouble outside and so on, can it be blamed on grandpa? Rise up." !"

Ling Yucheng squeezed his lips tightly so that the corners of his lips would not be too obvious, which would be seen by others.The Shenwu Guards are stationed in the northwest, the Guangwu Guards are stationed in the northeast, and the Frostwolf Guards are stationed outside the pass. It is not a big problem if their servants in the capital mansion make trouble, and they can't bring a large group of troops back.Hussar guards defending Gyeonggi dare to do this, it is against the heavens!

One or two hundred people can be mobilized today, one or two thousand tomorrow, and 200+ people will rebel if they are not guaranteed the day after tomorrow.Therefore, if the hussars dared to copy the guys out without orders and snatch back the general's grandson, Yuan Shao would have to destroy them, or if it didn't work, the clan in power would also have to clean up.

Well, judging from the reactions of the clan's several incidents, the head of their family really has a clear mind. It's no wonder that they are the descendants of the previous generation who have been favored by Queen Sejong 30 years after his death.Look at Hubenwei, who can be regarded as a queen, what has he become in the past few years!

It's a pity that the other ones didn't pass the test so easily...

"As for the others...Prince, I will leave this matter to you."

"My son obeys the order!" After being called by his father, Prince Yuanqin immediately stood up from the first place on the left, and bowed his hands respectfully.

The author has something to say: Xiaoling, you don’t care if you co-authored the crown prince, King Kang, or the princess, if you have stomach problems, you only care about your precious apprentice, right?

Guess how the crown prince will settle the case?
