Chronicle of Emperor Jing

"Vice Commander Wei, should this matter be investigated or not? What do you think?" The Vice Commander who spoke harshly just now began to use such words to run on Wei Yan again.

When he spoke like this, others listened, even if they didn't understand the inside story, they always had the feeling that this case was actually related to Wei Yan.

"Under the emperor's feet, there are powerful slaves who are bullying others. I beg your majesty to investigate thoroughly." Wei Yan ignored him, but bowed his hands to the emperor's car and said loudly.

The body is not afraid of the shadow slanting, he has done nothing wrong, why should he be afraid?Since that person was really wronged, he definitely supports a thorough investigation.

Seeing that he was so upright, the deputy commander was not at all worried that he would be found out, and finally shut up resentfully.

"I implore Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly and return justice to the common people." The other ministers also bowed in salute and begged the emperor.

"Caomin only asks His Majesty to give my father justice, even if he is exiled for three thousand miles, Caomin is willing." The man kowtowed a few times hard, and his forehead suddenly swelled up.

It was not for nothing that he bumped into the emperor's driving force like this, and it was normal for him to be sentenced to exile for three thousand miles afterwards.

"Order the Governor of Kyoto to thoroughly investigate this matter." Since everyone asked for an investigation, Jing Li did not go against everyone's wishes and ordered a thorough investigation.

"I obey the decree." Zhou Fu Yin came out and received the imperial decree.

"Marquis Yongning!" The servant who delivered the decree turned to Wei Yan again and continued.

"The minister is here!" Wei Yan stepped forward and responded.

"Your Majesty has an order to thoroughly investigate today's collision with the imperial driver."

"I obey the order." Wei Yan also bowed to accept the order.

Of course, this matter needs to be investigated, otherwise, if someone, for some reason, lets someone in to attack the emperor, and other people follow suit and do the same thing, wouldn't the emperor's security defense become a sieve?

As soon as this imperial decree came out, the eyes of some people changed slightly, but they have also been rolling in the officialdom for many years, this little thing will not make them change face on the spot.

What's more, in this matter, many people just hid in the background to come up with ideas, and did not deal with it directly, so they were not afraid of the emperor's thorough investigation.

Moreover, if the emperor knew something, it was still unknown whether he would love Marquis Yongning so much.The next thing depends on whether the Governor of Kyoto is quick to investigate, or Wei Yan is quick to move.

Thinking of this, they felt a little more at ease.

"Get off!"

Following the admonishment, the servant yelled loudly, and Yu Jia, who had stopped because of this accident, started to move again.

All the ministers stood respectfully by the side of the road, and waited until the emperor's imperial driver went first, then continued to line up, turned to the imperial road, and headed for the Meridian Gate.

Wei Yan gave Zhao Shi a few words, and still followed the emperor's car.

The Meridian Gate is bright, three dark and five. There are five gates in total. The middle gate is for the emperor to enter and exit, civil and military officials enter and exit through the east gate, and the west gate is for the clan kings to enter and exit.

Wei Yan sent the emperor to the Hall of Supreme Harmony all the way before going to do his errands.

Now it is almost the end of the year, and after today, it is time to seal the court and celebrate the new year.Civil and military officials followed the emperor into the Hall of Supreme Harmony at this time. There was a very important matter that had not yet been agreed upon.

Previously, the emperor proposed the matter of changing the Yuan Dynasty. After various private communications among the courtiers and various verbal confrontations in the court, three year names were finally drawn up, including "Taihe", "Tianxing", and "Hongqing". A few days ago He was sent to the Qin Tianjian for divination, and the result is about to come out today.

All the ministers were divided into two groups, and greeted the emperor's ascension to the throne.

"Qin Tianjian Supervisor, is the result of the divination for the New Year's name come out?" Sure enough, after the emperor sat down, he did not talk nonsense, but directly asked about it.

The inspector Qin Tianjian, who was named, came out of the line and replied: "I want to inform your majesty, the Qin Tianjian has calculated the result after repeated divination. The Qin Tianjian agreed that 'Hongqing' should be the new year's name."

Officials of the Qin Tianjian have always served the royal family. They observe the sky, make calendars, divination, and occasionally answer questions and interpret dreams for the emperor.These officials are generally hereditary, and their children and grandchildren are engaged in this business, and they are not in the same system as other officials of the court.

This self-contained situation prevents them from being easily influenced by other officials of the court, and the results of divination can be relatively detached.

Hongzhe, Da Ye.Celebratory is the ideographic character of the ancient auspicious beast unicorn 'Qi', which means auspicious and festive.The combination of the two has the meaning of Daqing Dahe.

The meaning of this year name is of course very auspicious, and the other two abandoned year names also have good meanings. As for the reason for the abandonment, Qin Tianjian said that it was God's will, and others dare not compete with them for the right to explain God's will.

As for whether there is human power in this will of God, such as trying to figure out the king's heart, there is no need to ask more about this kind of thing.

"Since this is the case, next year the Yuan will be changed to 'Hongqing'. What do you think?" As I said before, Jing Li doesn't really care what the New Year's name is, but he is afraid that the courtiers will be bored and look for something to do, so he will give it to them first. Find something to do, and now he is asking this, purely as a gesture.

"I have no objection!" The ministers were actually very concerned, but they had no reason to object to Qin Tianjian's divination results.

Besides, since one of the three is chosen, at least half of the courtiers must support this year name.In this way, the new year name has finally been determined.

"Preach the imperial edict to the world, and change the yuan to 'Hongqing' next year!"

"I will obey your orders!"

"Retreat!"

"I'm waiting to send you to Your Majesty!"

The last matter of this year has been negotiated, and only then will the court meeting be over.

After the ministers respectfully sent the emperor away, they exited the Hall of Supreme Harmony in an orderly manner until they left the Meridian Gate, and then walked in twos and threes to the north court room.These court rooms are used for waiting when they go up, and they are used for resting after they go down. Sometimes, they can also hold a small meeting and tea party with their second or third friends.

However, this day is already the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year is approaching, and people’s hearts have long since dispersed. In addition to the imperial court’s closure of the imperial court, other yamen of the imperial court will also be closed. home.

The courtiers have nothing to do, but Wei Yan's affairs are not over yet.

After he came out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he went out of the Meridian Gate and came to the place where Yu Jia was hit just now.

Zhao Shi received Wei Yan's signal and had already arrested him. He asked for several rooms in Beichaofang and interrogated him again and again.

This man, surnamed Shen and named Quan, was an ordinary farmer in Dongping County. He attended a private school for two years when he was a child, knew a few big characters, and made a living from farming on weekdays.In these situations, Zhao Shi didn't need to ask more, Shen Quan explained clearly.

However, in other cases, he refused to say more.For example, what Zhao Shi wanted to know the most was who let him in, so he refused to say a word.

If it is something else, Zhao Shi has a way to make people speak, but the target of this matter is very likely to be the Marquis of Yongning, so Zhao Shi only asked questions, and did not execute the sentence, so as not to fall into the trap of others, and then he will say more unclear.

But if he doesn't say it, others will.

If he ran into the imperial driver, if he didn't do well, all the guards on duty would be implicated, so even if he refused to cooperate, some people would come to provide clues.

When Wei Yan arrived, Zhao Shi had roughly drawn the road map for this person to come in.

This person came in through the Duanmen, and he used the badge of the servant on duty in the Beichao room. After entering, he hid in the Beichao room without making a sound. When Yujia was about to turn on the imperial road, everyone's attention was focused on When the imperial driver came up, he took the opportunity to rush out and sued the imperial court.

"Where is the servant on duty now?" Wei Yan frowned and asked.

"The humble job has already sent someone to take it." Zhao Shi replied.

He is the emperor's man, and he is proficient in all kinds of activities, both overt and dark. Wei Yan uses him very smoothly.In order to make progress, Zhao Shi worked very hard himself. Wei Yan didn't need to order these things, he would have asked others to do them long ago.

"Where are the guards on duty at Beichaofang?" Wei Yan asked again.

It's not that there are no people on both sides of the imperial road, but there are guards on duty. These people, when Shen Quan rushed up the imperial road, they didn't react in time, which is quite suspicious.

"All of them have been detained, and the interrogation has been stepped up."

The two of them were talking and discussing the case when someone knocked on the door outside and said, "My lord, Zhou Fu Yin is here."

"Zhoufu Yin came here once before, but I blocked him back. He probably saw Lord Hou coming, so he came to ask for someone again." Zhao Shi told Wei Yan what happened just now.

Zhou Fuyin was ordered to thoroughly investigate the case of slavery wounding, and Shen Quan, the sufferer, was also required to question him. However, there was only one sufferer, but he fell into the hands of the Guards and was taken into custody as a criminal. I came here once, but returned without success, and now I heard that the more talkative Marquis of Yongning is in charge, so I came to the door again and came to talk to the right lord.

"Please." Wei Yan immediately replied, and then stood up.

As soon as the door opened, Zhou Fu Yin's words came in accompanied by laughter.

"Marquis Yongning! I'm bothering you!" Zhou Fu Yin asked Wei Yan, his posture was very low, and he bowed to him as he spoke.

He obeyed the holy order, and the Marquis of Yongning also obeyed the holy order. Since the bitter master has already fallen into the hands of the Marquis of Yongning, even if he does not let him go, Zhou Fu Yin will have nothing to do with him. Hou's favorite, Zhou Fuyin also felt that he had no chance of winning.

Zhou Fuyin is in charge of the affairs of the emperor's feet. Although he feels that he did not cultivate in his previous life every day, he has fallen into the current miserable situation where he must struggle to survive in the cracks of the princes and nobles, but he can sit in this position without any reason. As long as he is moved, you can know that he is actually very good at life.

Be tough when you should be hard, and be soft when you should be soft. This is the secret of his success in officialdom and never fails.

There is a saying that it is not surprising that there are many people who are polite.

Besides, since Marquis Yongning is known for his loyalty, and he is so respectful, Marquis Yongning would be too embarrassed to refuse his request.

With such a small calculation in mind, Zhou Fuyin was so polite when facing Wei Yan that everyone else's teeth ached.

"Master Fu Yin is so polite, it's really a shame!" Wei Yan stepped forward quickly, and supported Zhou Fu Yin's arm, preventing him from bowing down.

These tricks coming and going in the officialdom, he finds it troublesome when he is lazy, but he can deal with it when he really needs it.

Zhou Fuyin tried a few times and wanted to continue to worship, but he was a civil servant and Wei Yan was a military officer, so he really didn't want him to worship, and it was definitely impossible for him to continue.

Zhou Fu Yin didn't insist, he straightened up, and followed Yongning Hou to take his seat.

Wei Yan asked people to serve tea, the two of them made some feints and talked nonsense, and Zhou Fuyin finally revealed his intention.

"This person, Shen Quan, is the criminal who collided with the imperial driving case, but he is the victim of the slave injury case. In the opinion of the lower officials, it is better for Hou Ye to hand over the man to the government office first, and wait for the lower officials to finish the trial of the slave injury case." The criminal case, and then transfer the criminal to Hou Ye. Does Hou Ye think it is appropriate to deal with it like this?"
