Records of the King of Xin'an County

For a while, there was no sound in the Taiji Hall, only the three uncles, nephews and nephews were still weeping bitterly intermittently.

The sage and the king of Xin'an County are nothing more than that, every word and every sentence is recalling the kindness and tolerance of the late emperor, especially the focus is on how precious the fatherly heart of the late emperor was when he dealt with the case of abolishing the crown prince's treason, and how the three brothers of the sage are brothers and sisters .Is the brotherhood between them as deep as they cry?Many courtiers may not believe it.But the uncle and nephew all choked up and said "deep", could they still jump up and refute?

On the other hand, Wu Guogong Qin An seemed to be crying about the succession of the first emperor, but in fact he scolded those officials who were so angry just now.In particular, King Peng blushed when he accused Sang and scolded Huai, but he was speechless.Who told him that he didn't mention his name, if he refuted it, he would undoubtedly admit his crime?In terms of identities, they are also relatives of the emperor. He only holds the vain position of the governor, but this is the real power Shang Shuxing Zuo Pushe, and his prestige in the court is far superior to him. Is it justifiable?

The sage finally controlled the scene, King Jing and Jian Guogong Xu Ye secretly heaved a sigh of relief, pretending that such a thing as "crying bitterly in the court hall" is very normal.The rest of the high-ranking officials also secretly reminded those new colleagues who had always been shocked and sluggish to return to their normal state as soon as possible with their "rare and strange" eyes.

Hehe, what kind of scene is this?Not only did the first emperor shed tears in the Tai Chi Hall, but His Majesty Dan danced ecstatically, and even cried from time to time in the Liangyi Hall.Not to mention that when the deposed prince Li Song conspired against him, he would draw his sword and kill himself when he got excited, which frightened the important officials present.Now the sage is just crying because of feelings in his heart. Such a reaction can already be called "gentle", okay?

Xu Shi had seen too many scenes and was too calm. A group of high-ranking officials waited patiently for the three uncles, nephews and nephews to finish crying.However, the sage and Xin'an County King are not like Emperor Taizong in essence. They can't control their emotions when they come, and they are normal when they go away.The two uncles and nephews continued to cry, while worrying about how to end it, their eyes were full of helplessness.

The sage couldn't help thinking again: Among his cronies, there is not only a lack of smart people, but also people with winks.Why doesn't anyone see that their uncle and nephew need a step up right now?Emperor Taizong was able to finish crying by himself, and started to talk about the government affairs with a wipe of tears, but he didn't have such a skill of taking it easy!

"..." And Wu Guogong, Qin An, scolded all the people he wanted to scold heartily, and suddenly found that he couldn't finish the scene.When the late emperor was still alive, he was always rational and calm, dispelling all kinds of whimsical ideas and violent emotions of the late emperor without a trace.However, now there is a lack of a character like him in the court.This is of course inseparable from his identity. In the past, he was the late emperor's wife, brother and confidant, so he naturally assumed the responsibility of appeasing the late emperor.However, there are too few high-ranking officials and cronies promoted by the sage himself, and they have no experience in dealing with such incidents. Of course, no one has come forward.

So, it seems that no one has noticed that the three uncles, nephews, nephews who are still crying have actually exchanged glances several times, silently discussing how to stop——

At this time, a young and magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the corner: "My minister dares to say that since the first emperor had a precedent in handling the case of abolishing the crown prince and treason, then the case of King Yue can be handled accordingly. The death penalty of King Yue is pardoned and the sentence The punishment of exile is only in this way that it can conform to the late emperor's licking love and the sage's filial piety. As for where is the best place to be exiled, I believe that it should be judged by the sage."

All the ministers looked back, and saw a young man in a light blue gown standing up and coming to the center of the hall to bow down.The light blue color is the common uniform of ninth-rank officials, which shows that this young man has a low position.However, his handsome appearance, calm demeanor, and elegant smile reminded many high-ranking officials in scarlet uniforms—isn't this the young first-ranked prince Xian?

The sage finally had a chance to go down the steps, so he stopped his tears and said with a nod, "What Wang Aiqing said is true."

Prince Xin'an said with tears in his eyes: "Uncle, if grandfather knows the outcome of this case, he will be very happy too."

Seeing that the two uncles and nephews wanted to pardon the death crimes of Yue King Li Heng and Siyue King Li Wei, Peng Wang was very anxious and kept winking at some supervisory censors at Yushitai.However, some of the censors did not see the fakes, some were hesitant, and some jumped out without hesitation: "The case of abolishing the prince is different from the case of the king of Yue. How can we generalize it?! Moreover, the late emperor Pardoning the abolished prince back then was out of the heart of a loving father and broke the rules! Later, the common man Li Song was recalled to the capital, not only did he not correct himself, but he was still unscrupulous. Doesn’t it prove that at the beginning—”

"Please be careful!" Wang Zixian put away his smile, his face full of solemnity, "This censor, is he trying to accuse the late Emperor of injustice in judging the case? Is there a fault? As Wu Guogong said just now, this is really ignorant!! The late emperor You have always been wise and powerful, how can you slander him? A sage, I believe that this person is disrespectful to the late emperor, and he should be punished for ten evil crimes!!" A mere censor, unexpectedly said that the late emperor made a mistake, and punished " The crime of "disrespect" is not an exaggeration!

The censor was stunned, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The sage's enlightenment! I have absolutely no such intentions, I..."

"Because of the late emperor's affection for licking the calf, the common man Li Song is now able to change from evil to good, and become a monk. It is a chance for people to get lost, and there is nothing good about it." Wang Zixian interrupted him calmly, and continued Dao, "And I think that the late emperor's handling is not only reasonable, but also legal. After all, the chaos of the seven kingdoms in the pre-Han period mentioned by the gentlemen just now really set off a war, which led to endless wars in the country and the death of innocent people. And the case of abolishing the Crown Prince and the King of Yue is nothing more than ulterior motives, and has not yet caused the consequences of bloodshed! If this is the case, they are obsessed with their obsession for a while, and the crime is not worthy of death!"

"Just now, it is not appropriate for the princes to compare the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms in the early Han Dynasty with the current case of the King of Yue! Only the case of abolishing the prince and the case of the King of Yue are similar. Therefore, the common man Li Song's case of abolishing the prince To be exiled to Qianzhou, the King of Yue and King Siyue should do the same!"

"Okay! Aiqing is right!! What do you think?" The sage looked at the young man and felt deeply wronged by sending him to be a county captain.With such a good tongue, how could he not enter Yushitai?If there was such a "compassionate" confidant in Yushitai, he wouldn't be forced here by King Peng and others today! !

Without waiting for the others to respond, Wu Guogong Qin An said: "Let the sage make a decision!"

Li Hui, King Jing, Jian Guogong Xu Ye, and the six ministers and nine ministers all said in unison: "Let the sage make a decision!!"

"Li Heng, the King of Yue, and Li Wei, the King of Yue today, harbored the intention of rebellion, and hid hundreds of armor in the Nanshan Palace, intending to commit misdeeds. This crime is unforgivable, but I read that nothing happened, and I have confessed my mistake in tears and pardoned the death penalty. Abolished Yue King Li Heng, Siyue King Li Wei, Tianshui County King Li Jing, etc. as common people, abolished Yue Princess Wang Shi, Siyue Princess Gao Shi, etc. as common people, and exiled to Guangzhou in Lingnan Province. And reported on his father's Langling County king--"

The sage narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression did not hide his coldness: "Although he first claimed meritorious service, his unfilial heart chilled me very much. From the beginning to the end, he wanted to put his parents and brothers to death, and he never pleaded for them. I don’t dare to reuse such an unfilial person!! Well, let him also go to Lingnan Road and be a Zhenzhou farewell.”

Guangzhou is the most prosperous city in Lingnan Road. Although it is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, it is not a completely barren land.After all the people in the Yue Palace arrived in Guangzhou, although they had to be under surveillance day and night, they would no longer have good clothes and food, and they might still have to work hard, but after all, there were many men, so they should be able to live smoothly.

As for the king of Langling County, Zhenzhou Biejia sounds good, only under the governor - but Zhenzhou (Sanya) is the most desolate state at the southernmost end of Lingnan Road.As for Zhenzhou Biejia in Xiazhou, it is only from the fifth rank, which is barely enough to serve Fei.However, who is willing to go from the prosperous Chang'an to the plague-ridden Zhenzhou to be an assistant officer who can't take charge?This is simply a blatant punishment, no different from exile!

All the ministers were shocked: It is obvious that the sage hates the king of Langling County even more than King Yue and King Siyue.The current outcome of this case is by no means what the saint wishes.In a few years, it is very likely that Yue Wang's family will return to Chang'an like the common people Li Song's family.But as for whether they will leave Chang'an again like Li Song did, and stay away from power completely, it is not known.

Then, the sage rewarded Princess Anxing with two thousand gold for "the first accusation of meritorious service".It looks like a reward and praise, but in fact it is the first time to hint to all the courtiers: the king of Yue's treason case is related to Princess Anxing. Very disgusted.And what she did secretly is absolutely intolerable.A wise man makes a quick decision.

Princess Anxing's reputation was already very bad. The clan kings and princesses never thought that her reputation could be even worse.A sage is not only a king, but also firmly occupies the commanding heights of virtue. Of course, most people vote for him without hesitation.Princess Qinghe and Princess Linchuan even publicly stated that they would never appear on the same occasion as Princess Anxing.

For a while, the family members of the high-ranking officials and families in Chang'an City also had to make choices—they had no choice at all. If they still thought about the future of their own family Alang and the lords, they must not be involved with Princess Anxing .Of course, there were also people who plotted secretly, pretending to sever ties with Princess Anxing to conceal their position.

Regarding the current situation, Princess Anxing still didn't care about it on the surface, but after returning to the Princess's mansion, she smashed and threw the ornaments in the bedroom, and the debris immediately spread all over the floor.The newly replaced servants were trembling with fright, not daring to speak out to comfort them, much less dare to act presumptuously.Some people were beaten to the point of bleeding, but they gritted their teeth and dared not make a sound.

"Your lord, calm down." At some point, Cheng Qing walked in slowly, "Your anger hurts you."

"Why is the son-in-law here?" Princess Anxing threw the vase in her hand to his feet with a half-smile.

Broken porcelain flew around and tore his clothes, Prince Cheng seemed a little startled, frowned and took two steps back: "Aren't you worried about your lord?"

"Does the son-in-law have a good plan?" Princess Anxing asked lightly again.

"I have no ambitions, let alone talent." Cheng Qing raised the corners of his lips, "The people who offer advice to your lord are like crucian carp crossing the river, and I am not lacking. But the one who can comfort your lord is none other than me." belongs."

Princess Anxing sneered, and lazily stretched out her slender hands towards him: "You and I both know that our husband and wife are one. How can I be the only one who contributes, but you are watching the excitement?"

A gloomy look flashed across Cheng Qing's eyes, and then a bit of hostility flashed quickly.
