Chronicle of Emperor Jing

Wei Yan didn't speak, just turned over and hugged him.

On the emperor's clothes, there was a faint smell of incense, which smelled very good.

He didn't want to bring up some things. Originally, the emperor might have just asked casually and didn't take it to heart. He brought it up and said it seriously. It's his fault that he reminded the emperor of this matter.

"What's the matter?" Jing Li held the back of his neck, rubbed it for him, and kissed him on the forehead.

He became tender, every word and deed was the tenderness of a drowning person, even if Wei Yan was angry with him just a moment ago, after being coaxed by him like this, he couldn't help but retreat all the way, he believed whatever he said.

What's more, Wei Yan is not angry with him now, and he was immediately coaxed into a soft heart.

"Your Majesty..." Wei Yan leaned close to him and told him what he heard in the restaurant, "Your Majesty, these are the things you asked Senior Brother Xie to investigate, right?"

"Yes." For some things, there will be a lot of resistance if it is carried out from the top down, but the effect will be much better if the force is exerted together.

There are probably a lot of folks who have forced the purchase of land, but it can be regarded as a transaction where one hand pays and one hand delivers goods. Even if some people who lost their land feel angry and want to go to the government for evaluation, they may not win.

But if this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated, it will inevitably offend many people. These people are not ordinary people. Once gathered together, they are not a small force. Even if Jing Li wants to investigate, he needs to use the situation. This time he wants to take advantage of the momentum.

In Jingli's heart, he actually expected that Xie Meng would do more, but he didn't know whether Xie Meng was willing to do it.

Anyway, if Xie Meng dares to do it, he dares to reuse him, but if he doesn't dare to do it, he won't use it much.

A knife, sharp enough to kill, is a good knife. He has too many knives for appreciation, so it's not very rare.

Some things he didn't discuss with Wei Yan in detail, but some things he analyzed with Wei Yan.

"Who dares to say that you shouldn't listen to the voice of the common people and the ministers and workers in the court. Since you have to listen carefully, you will naturally hear many problems. Next, it will be much easier to let people deal with these problems. It’s what you call leveraging your strength.”

The other point of borrowing strength is actually about Wu Sheng's matter, but Jing Li deliberately skipped it.

If Wu Sheng didn't come up with this framing thing, even if he noticed these things, he wouldn't have a suitable entry point to investigate, but now, Wu Sheng clearly gave him a good reason.

Once some people in the court understand the cause and effect of this, and because of Xie Meng's thorough investigation, they will suffer losses. Those who wear the same pair of trousers as Wu Sheng may have to fight against each other. Those who have conflicts with him will inevitably It will be worse.

At that time, Wei Yan only needs to drink tea and watch the play, and he will be able to see the ending he likes.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Yan liked the way the emperor talked eloquently and pointed out the country, especially when the emperor cared about the world and cared about people's livelihood, it was his favorite look.

It's a pity that it was very rare for the emperor to put on this posture in front of him.But it is because of its scarcity that Wei Yan likes it the most.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Yan couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to get close to the emperor, so he leaned over and kissed the emperor's lips.

There are not many times when Wei Yan is so proactive. Of course, Jing Li also likes Wei Yan to take the initiative to kiss him.

He kissed back lightly a few times, then pressed the back of Wei Yan's head, deepening the kiss.

After the kiss, the two messed around for a while before embracing each other and going to bed.

The days in the palace were leisurely and comfortable for the two of them.

Every day, Wei Yan repeated the same things, soaking in hot springs, riding horses, playing chess with the emperor, and occasionally listening to the emperor in class.

The emperor generally took various appreciation classes.For a vase, the emperor could talk about the place of origin, porcelain clay, kiln firewood, and glaze color all the way. Wei Yan was so confused that the emperor hadn't had enough fun yet.

As a last resort, Wei Yan could only hold the stage, ask a question occasionally, let the emperor continue to talk, and pay attention to the questions he asked himself, so as not to spoil the emperor's interest too much.

However, apart from this bit of hard work, he spent the rest of the time very leisurely.

Jing Li also had a good time. He and Wei Yan were together. In fact, no matter what they were doing, they were in a good mood. Even when Wei Yan was cheering, it was obviously perfunctory, and the questions he asked were not necessary to answer. He still answered every stupid question Wei Yan asked seriously.

Even if it was a repeated question, as long as Wei Yan didn't realize it and asked again, he would take the trouble to answer it again.

He wouldn't have this kind of patience with other people, but when he was with Wei Yan, his patience obviously increased.

In a blink of an eye, several days passed, and on the [-]th day, they returned to the capital.

Fifteenth is the Lantern Festival, after the Lantern Festival, this new year's festival is all over.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month of the first year of Hongqing, the emperor first held a court meeting. At the court meeting, Zhou Fu Yin of Kyoto Prefecture impeached Wu Sheng, the deputy commander of the guard battalion.

It is common for officials of the Guards Battalion to be impeached by other courtiers, usually because they are domineering and bullying others, but this time the impeachment by Zhou Fuyin is not such a trivial matter.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Wu indulged the family stewards to buy murderers and kill people. There were all the witnesses and evidences. The minister sent someone to arrest the man, but the Wu family reported a sudden illness and died. From the minister's point of view, it was clearly murder. Moreover, this steward It is also related to another case of abducting and taking in fugitive slaves, I implore Your Majesty to learn from it and order a thorough investigation, so as to return the common people to a bright future."

On the [-]th day of the new year, Zhou Fuyin sent someone to fetch him, but failed.The Wu family directly reported a death due to illness, so the matter was dismissed.

However, Zhou Fu Yin had long been prepared for these things, and he didn't feel any surprises.

Now that the members of the Flying Fish Gang have been arrested, the life of the manager who communicated with him must not be spared. Everyone understands this kind of thing, and no one will uncover it. It is because of the tacit understanding between each other, but Zhou In this matter, Fu Yin has actually figured out that Jun Xin is in line, and this kind of tacit understanding no longer exists, so he wants to uncover this pot.

"Order the three divisions to interrogate." Jing Li said noncommittally.

He was satisfied with Zhou Fuyin's performance this time.However, he is the emperor, so he will definitely not express his attitude casually, so what the courtiers saw and heard was his indifferent attitude and indifferent voice.

In this way, Deputy Commander Wu Shengwu was imprisoned in Dali Temple, and the trial of the three divisions began.

Originally, even if he really paid for the murder, because the steward is dead, in fact, there is no proof of death.No matter how much evidence Zhou Fuyin has to prove that this steward ordered the members of the Feiyu Gang to kill Li Dalang, and even the missing steward Liu of the Yongning Hou Mansion also fell on the steward, but the dead are not dead. Those who can't speak, naturally can't identify who the main messenger is.

Wu Sheng only said that this person did all these things privately. At most, he would admit that he was not strict in running the family and compensate the suffering master with some silver taels, and the matter would be settled.

If there were no things that happened later, things would indeed develop as he expected. Even if he did these things, it would be impossible for him to hurt his muscles and bones, and he would just get away with it unscathed.

But the emperor wanted to clean him up, and he didn't want to find an excuse to clean him up by himself, but wanted to use the hands of his courtiers to clean him up. Things definitely couldn't develop as he expected.

After the new year is over, many things that were frozen because of the new year have started to move.

On the [-]th day, there was another very important thing, that is, Commander Shen Mo and Shen Da made a note to retire from the old age, the emperor naturally tried every means to keep him, and returned his note on the spot, and rewarded him with a lot of property, which showed the emperor's sincerity Keep the heart.

Two days later, Shen Mo once again accepted the old paper, and the emperor tried to persuade him to stay again.

The two of them, the monarch and his ministers, went back and forth to complete this set of ceremonies that were repeatedly held back, and then Jing Li approved Shen Mo's retirement, and the court named him Marquis Changwu, who can last for three generations.

"Shen Aiqing, I don't know who Aiqing thinks, who can be in charge of the guard camp after Qing?" After all the necessary procedures were completed, Jing Li finally asked this sentence.

"Your Majesty, I think that the Marquis of Yongning can be in charge of the guard camp." Shen Mo had a tacit understanding with the emperor on this matter many years ago, and now the emperor wants to use his mouth to recommend Wei Yan to the top position, of course he is not stingy Match one last time.

"Marquis Yongning, is Wei Qing too young, lacking in experience and qualifications?" Jing Li pretended to help Wei Yan to be humble.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the Marquis of Yongning is upright, prudent, and devoted to his duties, so he can take up this position." Shen Mo continued to cooperate.

"I and Aiqing have known each other for dozens of years. There has never been a gap between monarchs and ministers. I have always believed in Qing's high opinion. Now that Aiqing is recommending it with all his strength, I should gladly accept it." Jing Li said earnestly. After saying this, he turned to Wei Yan and said, "Wei Aiqing, I will hand over the Jinweiying to you, don't let down Changwuhou's recommendation, and don't let me down .”

All the people in the guard camp should be regarded as military ministers. Except for Shuowang Dynasty or Dachaohui, they would not appear in ordinary court meetings. Wei Yan came here with the emperor today. He didn't know that the emperor asked him to His intention of coming here, only now did he know that the emperor would accept Commander Shen Da's resignation today.

This matter has been going on for several days, and Wei Yan already knew that sooner or later he would come to this point.And now, he also understands that the reason why the emperor transferred him to Commander Shen to practice under Commander Shen was for today's succession.

Without hesitation, he knelt down on the court and said loudly: "The minister must do his best to live up to His Majesty's love, and the teachings of the Great Commander over the years."

"That's very good. From now on, Wei Aiqing and Shen Aiqing will discuss the affairs of the Wei Ying."

"I obey the order!" Shen Mo and Wei Yan obeyed at the same time.

The commander of the Guards Battalion ranks first among the military officers, he is in charge of more than 1 emperors' troops, and he holds a shortcut in his hand to promote the promotion of officials and nobles, but who will occupy this position has always been the emperor's decision In short, at most, let the predecessor cooperate with the nomination like now, and there is no need to seek the opinions of other courtiers.

The reason for this is actually very simple.

The emperor is close to the army, and he is in charge of the military power. If the emperor can't control the military power under the emperor's feet and let the courtiers control it, then the emperor may not feel at ease sitting on the throne.

This is also the real reason why many people make troubles, not to do anything to Wei Yan, but to force Wei Yan to leave the capital due to gossip, or to make Wei Yan fall out of favor in the emperor's heart.
