Rebirth: Raising an Emperor as a Wife

Chapter 71 The Great Hall 3

Zhang Jin replied, "I agree to this request. It is because the guilty minister has gone too far. Zhang Jin should write this article sincerely."

Xue Xiao saw them asking and answering, "The Sixth Highness's suggestion is too light, and I'm afraid it's not enough for ordinary people to complain."

Jing Yi smiled, "What Grand Master Xue said is that this is only the first step. This step is just to eliminate the rumors that happened in the court a few days ago and caused among the people in Xingdu. It will make the people feel better." We all know what kind of crown prince our crown prince is. Next, we can deal with it according to the normal official behavior. Demotion, retaining, fine salary or relegation to other places should be determined by the Secretary according to the regulations. Father, you Look, this kind of suggestion from Erchen is very good. It can eliminate the adverse influence on the crown prince, and prevent the emperor from being infamous for thousands of years."

The queen mother laughed, "I think it's okay. The official surnamed Zhang didn't seem to have committed any serious crimes, so the crown prince should spare him. Only when things can be tolerated can he be considered the prince of the country. Grandma is getting old. I can't see the blood, so let's settle this matter."

The queen mother said so, how dare the prince refuse to follow, originally today he was determined to take the head of Zhang, but now it has become such a situation, no matter how angry the prince is, he can't show it, and he wants to stand on his own. Jing Yi at the side glanced at him, and replied, "The grandson always listens to the grandmother. If Mr. Zhang can restore his innocence, the grandson will be worthy of his ancestors. As for the murder, the grandson has never advocated it." Acting so viciously. My father always taught us to rule the world with benevolence and righteousness, and asking my father to give Lord Zhang a light sentence is also my royal benevolence."

What he said, it seemed that he planned to let Zhang Jin go.The courtiers below whispered.If this matter can be settled in this way, it will add a lot to the prince's benevolent reputation, but right now I can't take care of this much.

Seeing that the crown prince said so, others naturally did not dare to object. The emperor walked down from the dragon chair a little tiredly, looked at Jing Yi, and patted him on the shoulder. Very happy.

The emperor said, "So, let's do it according to what the sixth prince said. Zhang Jin will be fined for one year, and if he fails to close the door for three months, he will be demoted to three ranks, and he will still be the censor. Can you help me? objection."

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty responded in unison, "I have no objection."

The emperor went on to say, "Although the prince was wronged for no reason, the great mission from heaven will always endure wind and rain. After some tribulations, it is difficult for you to maintain a benevolent and selfless heart. I am deeply comforted. Reward a thousand taels of gold, and forge a hundred brocades." match."

The prince quickly knelt down to thank him, "Thank you, father, for the reward."

The emperor turned back to the high position, glanced at Jing Yi, and said, "The sixth prince is smart and agile, and he rewards a hundred taels of gold and a pair of jade Ruyi."

Although the reward is small, the meaning is different. In the eyes of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, this is a different signal. Jing Yi glanced at the Queen Mother in disbelief. Seeing the Queen Mother was also very happy, and quickly knelt down to thank her. "Thank you, father, for the reward."

What he valued was not these rewards, but the emperor's approval. In his lifetime, this was the emperor's first approval. Therefore, the ecstasy could not be calmed down for a long time, and it was even more obvious on his face.

The prince standing beside him lowered his head with a sullen face.

At this point, it seemed that the matter was over, the Queen Mother tapped on the dragon's crutch, "Since this matter is over, I will go back to the palace first as an old man, as I am getting older, I will feel uncomfortable after sitting for a while."

After finishing speaking, he called Jing Yi to his side and stood up holding Jing Yi's hand. The emperor quickly got up and helped the queen mother, "Mother, go slowly."

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty also bowed together, "Respectfully send off the Queen Mother."

The queen mother waved her crutches, "No, no." She pulled Jing Yi back to the side hall.

Seeing them coming out, Huzi's eyes lit up, but Chen Zhao grabbed him from behind, trying not to pounce on them to ask for clarification.The mother named Xueniang greeted the queen mother with a smile when she saw her come out, helped the queen mother to the table, took out tea and a cup from the food box she had been carrying, poured a cup of ginseng tea, and asked the queen mother to rest first.

The Queen Mother was weak and could not sit for a long time. Jing Yi felt sad for a while, and hurriedly pressed the old man's shoulders, "Grandmother, it's my grandson who is unfilial and made you work hard."

The queen mother still smiled kindly, "Grandma has lived half her life, so this is nothing to worry about, but Jinger, you have never asked grandma for anything, just this matter, grandma will definitely do it for you."

Jing Yi was very moved, "Thank you, grandma,"

In Xue Yao's eyes, this kindness is extremely moving.

After resting enough, a group of people escorted the queen mother into the sedan chair, and sent the queen mother to the entrance of the inner palace, and ordered people to take care of her, Jing Yi then led a few people back, but they didn't approach, and kept waiting Under the corner, waiting to see the scene of Sanchao.

At this time the sun had already risen, and it was not so strong yet. After a while, the door of the palace opened wide, and the ministers of civil and military affairs came out of the hall one by one. Xue Yao saw one of them with messy gray hair and staggering steps. Some can't bear it.It's only been a few days in prison, and people have been tortured like this.

Seeing him like this, Jing Yi comforted him, "Father punished him with one year's salary and demoted him to three ranks. It's okay, at least he's still alive."

Xue Yao knew that such a result was hard to come by, "Thank you, Your Highness, for letting Your Highness bother you."

Jing Yi smiled slightly, "It's nothing, it's all thanks to the Queen Mother, and that Lord Su also contributed a lot."

Xue Yao smiled knowingly, "I knew that this old fox wasn't telling me the truth."

"Ha," Jing Yi was also a little happy when he thought that Xue Yao was fooled by others, "He also took out the academy petition after seeing the Queen Mother."

"He told me not to scatter hawks when he doesn't see rabbits, and not to open his mouth when he doesn't see meat. In short, he doesn't fight unprepared battles. But it's okay, I thought he would pretend to be dead to the end."

Jing Yi thought his slang words were very interesting, with a smile on his face all the time, "I can understand him, it's a good way to wait for him when he sees no hope, and to go head-on when he finds the possibility of success. way of life."

Chen Zhao asked a little strangely, "Your Highness, didn't the Crown Prince and Grand Master Xue make things difficult for you in the palace today?"

This is also a strange thing, since Jing Yi started to speak, Grand Master Xue didn't say anything more, presumably something must have happened.

Xue Yao twitched the corner of his mouth, "Before, I saw a little eunuch at the door curtain of the side hall, opened the door and looked inside, maybe Grand Master Xue received some instructions."

When Huzi heard it, "Hey, why didn't I see it?"
