It's night, in Yuhui Hall.
Chunfeng and Dongyue had just finished reporting what Song Yusheng asked them to check that day, and came out of the back room together.
After Dongyue came out, he quickly went to find Xiahua.
Dongyue pulled Xia Hua and asked: "No, please tell me quickly, what good things has the master done these days, getting promoted, getting rich, and marrying a wife? Why do you think he compares with the previous period? Well, it's different. You don't know. When I go into the back room, I always see him having fun there alone. Isn't it scary? It's so scary. I'm worried that he is possessed by some evil spirit. . ”
Since Wen Chu left, the entire Yuhui Hall has fallen into a lifeless state. Although Song Yusheng is no longer like before, he watches this place very closely and no one is allowed in, and Song Liqing He often came to see Song Yusheng, but Song Yusheng seemed to be lifeless. He was so cold that he had nothing to do except grinding himself with official duties all day long.
But since a few days ago, I don't know what happened, which made him melt like an iceberg, like spring.
Dongyue and Chunfeng were busy with other things, but Xia Hua had been following Song Yusheng, so she should know these things.
Xia Hua thought for a while, and was about to say: Don't make rash comments about your lord.
But Dongyue blocked him first, and said: "It's okay, it's just you and me here. I'm begging you, just talk to me."
Xia Hua is also a perseverant person. After hearing what he said, he was silent for a moment before speaking out. He said: "That day, when Wen Chu prayed for rain, the master was also there, but I don't know what they said. All in all, the atmosphere is quite good.”
Sure enough, Dongyue guessed that it was Wen Chu. If it weren't for her, who else could involve his mind like this.
He muttered: "I really don't know what's so good about her that makes the master worry about her like this."
Dongyue doesn't understand, such a powerful person like Song Yusheng , how can love be controlled like this?
He thought of something and slapped his thigh, "Tell me, tell me, maybe this little Taoist has poisoned the master!"
The more Dong Yue thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, he said : "No, I'm going to tell my master. That little Taoist priest has a lot of bad ideas. I'm really not sure."
Xia Hua looked at Dong Yueruo as if she was an idiot, so he pulled him back and reminded: "If you want to be whipped again, just go ahead and say it, don't say I didn't remind you."
Xia Hua Having said this, if Dongyue still wants to commit suicide, he can't stop her.
Dongyue also listened to the advice. How could she dare to say anything after hearing this? She muttered a few words and left.
*
The morning sun was shining brightly the next day. After Wen Chu woke up that day, his mind was still a little sleepy, so the queen came to the side hall early to look for her.
With sleepy eyes, Wen Chu saw Queen Xiaoyi sitting beside her bed excitedly.
Wen Chu didn't know what was going on when the queen said to her: "Do you know that yesterday your father had someone build a temple for you to gain good fortune? Originally, those ministers always wanted to shirk it. , I wanted to prevent your father from repairing it, but once the incident about your prayer for rain came out, they had nothing to say. You went to bed early yesterday, so I couldn't come. Let me tell you.”
Wen Chu was still a little confused as to why he built a temple for her as soon as she woke up. She was a little surprised and subconsciously asked: “Does the father still have money?”
Wen Chu's worry is not unreasonable. Over the years, out of the ten taels of silver, the party has taken six taels, the emperor has taken two taels, and the remaining two taels have been put into the national treasury.
The natural disaster was so serious a few days ago. Emperor Linghui also sent out a lot of relief food. Where did he get the money to repair it.
The queen laughed when she heard Wen Chu's words. She knocked her head and said, "No matter how much your father is bullied, he is still the emperor. Besides, building a temple for you is a reward for asking for rain." Yes, from the treasury, silly boy, what are you worried about? , you must not do such a thing again next time, bet your life with the sky, this time you win the bet, next time, if you lose the bet, wouldn't you, such a shameless little rogue, have to die? Isn’t it?”
The word “lucky” is the most frightening. Even if there was a slight chance that she would lose the bet, the Queen would not even ask her to bet.
Wen Chu listened to the queen's murmurings, and he didn't know when he clung to her body again.
The smell on the queen's body is very similar to the smell in her childhood memories, but now she also has a slight medicinal smell mixed with it.
As soon as Wen Chu lay in her arms, it was like returning to his childhood.
Her body was so soft. As soon as Wen Chu lay down on her, he felt sleepy again. His eyes were closed and he was about to fall asleep again.
Just when she was about to fall asleep, the queen reached out and pinched her face.
"Still sleeping, you damn child, why do you want to stay in bed as soon as you get the chance."
The queen laughed and scolded, but the doting tone in her tone, Almost overflowing.
The palace maids next to them also felt that the scene of mother and daughter dating was so beautiful that they even wet their eyes unconsciously. They are all old people who follow Queen Xiaoyi, and they also know the queen's feelings for Wen Chu.
The queen often has nightmares, dreaming about Wen Chu and Concubine De. She dreamed about the suffering they suffered back then, and once she dreamed about it, she would never sleep well that night again. Over the years, she has been tortured by these dreams one after another.
Fortunately, the person is finally back.
The queen felt that the feeling of Wen Chu lying in her arms was a little unreal. When she saw that she had stopped moving, she knew that she had fallen asleep again, so she pinched her awake.
Wen Chu came back after regaining consciousness. She got up from the queen's body, rubbed her face, and finally regained consciousness.
The queen looked at her like this and asked: "I remember that when you were young, you also loved sleeping like this. Yinrong woke up early and always liked to bring you here while you were still sleeping. Ning Palace.”
When Wen Chu was young, he slept on both sides of Kunning Palace and Deming Palace. In the palace, besides the emperor, the only person De Ming wanted to have a blind date with was the queen.
Sometimes De Fei couldn’t bear the loneliness, so she often carried Wen Chu to Kunning Palace early in the morning. The two of them would laugh and have tea there. Many times, they would also take advantage of the opportunity. Early in the morning, let's go to the palace with a wide view to watch the sunrise. At this time, Wen Chu was probably sleeping in bed.
The queen thought of Concubine De, and felt an uncontrollable pain in her heart. She suppressed her sadness and asked: "What about you later? Did you stay in bed like this when you were not in the palace?"
Wen Chu thought for a while and shook his head. She said: "It's not bad, I got used to getting up early later."
She saw the queen's discomfort, and said quite easily: "This is either returning to the previous place, or becoming the same again. Get used to it.”
The queen's eyes are beautiful, like a puddle of autumn water, calm and soft, which will not change at all because of her age or anything else.
But at this moment, there are tears in these beautiful eyes.
Wen Chu regretted a little. He had known that he would not like this bed, but somehow the queen was reminded of the past.
She said: "Mother, don't be sad. I'm back now. Think about it, what a good life I am living now. My mother, father, emperor, and brother are all here. You are all here. It’s really good to treat me like this. Everyone has to look forward. I look forward, and you should look forward with me.”
After hearing this, the queen thought. The tears in his eyes fell down immediately.
Grow up, really grow up. The changes over the years have made her like this.
Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
If it's a good thing, she is actually much tougher than before. If it's a bad thing, the price is too high.
The Queen covered her mouth and coughed twice, and said with a smile: "Okay, look forward, Queen Mother and you, let's look forward."
Everyone is back, but they always look forward to the past. What to do with the sad things.
Wen Chu had also started to get up and get dressed. She heard the queen coughing and asked, "Is the queen's illness still not cured? Why do I often hear you coughing these days."
"As usual, it's not a problem. , It won't kill you."
Wen Chu even stopped dressing, "Why don't you get in the way? , Why can't you die? This is how a minor illness turns into a serious illness. What did the imperial doctors say? "
It's not that the imperial doctors have never seen the queen's illness, but her illness is a heart disease. After years of depression, even if Wen Chu comes back, it is still difficult no matter how good he is, and there is no other way but to endure it.
Just when the queen was thinking about how to fool Wen Chu, an announcement came from outside.
"Welcome to the Emperor!"
"Welcome to the Crown Prince!"
Seeing that the Emperor and the Crown Prince were coming, the Queen just relieved her of her difficulty, urged Wen Chu to get up, and went first outside.
Wen Chu quickly changed his clothes, washed up and went out.
As soon as she went out, she heard the voice of Emperor Ling Hui. He said: "I dreamed of Yin Rong last night, and she finally came to see me again. She said she was worried about Xiao Chu, But with this disease, you and I may not live for many years. When the time comes, you and I will go underground and stare at her, but what should we do?”
Wen Chu knew that they were not in good health, but he didn't know that they had reached such a state, and why they were talking about dying now.
Wen Chu heard the queen's words, and she said: "It's just a living for a few years. Who told you to ruin yourself like this in the past few years? You can't even say it, and you still want it if you say it." It’s uncomfortable.”
Emperor Linghui also knew that taking pills was harmful to his health, but he had no hope of living. He was looking forward to dying, but now it was too late to regret it.
He waved his hand and said: "Stop scolding, stop scolding."
The relationship between Emperor Linghui and Empress Xiaoyi was not like a husband and wife, but like a husband and wife. It's a friend.
If Emperor Linghui married Xiaoyi back then, he was naturally reluctant. After all, it was not out of his heart. And how could Empress Xiaoyi be willing to marry into the middle palace? At such an age, she was sent to the deep palace to be the mistress of the world and the wife of a man who didn't love her at all.
She was born into a family of generals, so she had no arrogance. However, her arrogance had long been smoothed away bit by bit in the palace.
In the end, what else can I do but accept it.
When the two were grieving, Li Weiyan spoke up at the right time, "If the mother and father are worried about the emperor's sister, I don't think Song Yusheng can't do it."
When it comes to Song Yusheng, the gazes of the two people I brushed and looked at him.
Emperor Linghui took the lead and said: "Don't you think that I don't know that you are on good terms with him. Is he whispering in your ears? Are you trying to use your sister's influence to make Song Yusheng treat you with all his heart?"
Li Weiyan said: "The father is wronged, but the son really is not. I just miss Song Yusheng. Although the things he did in the past were a bit too extreme. , but judging from the many years I have spent with him, he is a gentleman and he can protect Xiao Chu. I want her more than anyone else."
If Li Weiyan was really doing it for her own good, it would be inappropriate for him to say such words. Song Yu was born between gentle and Chu people. In their opinion, how could he forgive easily.
Kang said that if Song Yusheng and Wen Chu got better, they would naturally help Li Weiyan rise to power. Therefore, it is no wonder that Emperor Lai Linghui thought that way.
Before Emperor Linghui opened his mouth, he heard the queen say: "If you want her to be good, don't try to persuade her. No one else can interfere with their affairs, and it's useless to persuade anyone. There's no point in trying to persuade Song Yusheng to give up. It's useless to persuade Xiao Xiao. It's useless for Chu to accept it. As family members, it's natural for us to want her best, but to want her best is not to push her to another man to protect her. Do you understand that once such a relationship starts, your sister will be in trouble. You will always be inferior to others.”
“ Your mother is right." After listening to the queen's words, Emperor Linghui looked up at Li Weiyan and said, "You have a deep mind. You have so many things on your mind. Can't you understand this?"
< br>Emperor Linghui There was no emotion in Li Weiyan's voice, but it still stuck in Li Weiyan's chest. He was very thoughtful. Anyway, he was so scheming in his eyes. No matter what he said or did, he felt that he had something different. Purpose.
Li Weiyan's expression remained as usual. He hadn't heard these words very often over the years. Why couldn't he get used to them?
Seeing that Emperor Linghui started to speak ill of Li Weiyan again, Wen Chu stopped hiding there and listened. She walked in front of them, stood behind Li Weiyan, and put her hands on his on the shoulders.
If she was younger, she would often stick to Li Weiyan's back, but now she is not of the right age, and Wen Chu can no longer do things as close to Li Weiyan as they did when they were children.
But the three of them were here, and Wen Chu stood alone behind Li Weiyan, undoubtedly telling Emperor Linghui that she was very close to this brother.
In her own way, she wanted to support Li Weiyan and wanted Emperor Linghui to treat him better and stop saying those hurtful words all the time.
Li Weiyan felt Wen Chu's hand on his shoulder, which made his shoulder feel hot. There was obviously a lot of clothes between him, but he felt the temperature of her palms was like a soldering iron, burning the skin under his clothes.
Emperor Linghui didn't know what Wen Chu was thinking. He snorted and said with dissatisfaction: "Since I was a child, I have been clinging to your brother. What's wrong with saying a few words to him? I asked you to protect me like this. .”
Wen Chu said dissatisfied: "Don't say it, just don't say it. The emperor is my emperor brother. If my father doesn't feel sorry for me, I feel sorry for him."
Wen Chu's words were very serious, without any pretense.
Emperor Linghui knew that she had a good relationship with Li Weiyan, just from the day she blocked his arrow. Now that she has said this, how can he embarrass Li Weiyan again?
He said: "I know, I know, just don't talk about it from now on."
Li Weiyan's thoughts turned over and over again, and he didn't know where he thought in the end. After coming back to his senses, he also smiled and said: "Xiao Chu, sit down."
After hearing what he said, Wen Chu sat next to him.
She was a little surprised as to why the two of them came here so early in the morning. She asked: "Father, what did the emperor do here so early."
Emperor Linghui Said: "You can't come if you have nothing to do?"
"What are you talking about? I don't think so."
The palace maid has already brought breakfast up from the side, Wen Chu He replied while eating breakfast.
After hearing what she said, Emperor Linghui stopped talking. He just raised his head in Li Weiyan's direction and said, "It's nothing. It's your sister-in-law. I heard that you are back and I want to give you something." . It’s just that she was pregnant with a child recently and couldn’t move around, so she let her go. Your imperial brother sent it. Your imperial brother happened to be discussing something with me in Qianqing Palace. After he said this, I came with him."
Li Weiyan's eyes were filled with tears just by mentioning his wife and children. It's an indescribable tenderness, and I even know how loving the relationship between the two is.
Wen Chu was a little surprised when she heard that the Crown Princess was pregnant. She had seen her several times before, but she had never seen such obvious signs of pregnancy in her belly. Who knew that she was pregnant? By now, it was no longer convenient to move around.
"That's it." She said to Li Weiyan: "Then the emperor brother has to go back and help me thank the emperor's sister-in-law."
"Of course."
After Wen Chu finished speaking, several people sat together and chatted for a long time. When the family was in peace, a young eunuch suddenly ran out of the palace in a hurry. He didn't know that he had reached Emperor Linghui's ears. After saying something, Emperor Linghui's face suddenly turned ugly.
He frowned and asked: "Dengwen drum, what is he doing by beating Dengwen drum?"
The other three people were immediately attracted by these words.
The queen asked: "Who is beating the Dengwen drum?"
Anyone who beats the Dengwen drum, regardless of poverty, wealth, or high or low status, can directly meet the emperor. This This is a rule set by Taizu after the founding of the country.
Of course, when the Tai/Ancestor first instituted this rule, he wanted the people to have a place to speak, a place to express their grievances, and to make it convenient for them to file a complaint.
But after Emperor Linghui ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager used the excuse that many people were beating the drum for no reason, and the young emperor was still young and did not have so much energy and ability to deal with such trivial matters, so she set up , Unless there is a serious grievance, the Dengwen drum is not allowed to be beaten. Moreover, after beating the Dengwen drum, you must first receive thirty big bans to show that the matter is serious.
As soon as this rule came out, there were fewer and fewer people beating the Dengwen drum. In addition, the emperor was so incompetent, so why did they have to play this old house for fun? The Dengwen drum was almost gone. It has been gathering dust for more than ten years.
But today, it was said that the Dengwen drum was beaten.
Everyone was a little surprised and curious as to who it was.
Emperor Linghui said: "Huang Jian."
The young eunuch asked: "Your Majesty, what should I do?"
Emperor Linghui also wanted to know what Huang Jian was for. It was just because He Hong and the others were embezzling and bribing, but did he need to beat the drum for this matter? When he beats this drum, isn't it because he is running to risk his life?
Emperor Linghui said: "Tell him to go back and don't let him knock that thing again. Tell the people on duty there today to keep their mouths tighter and don't let this matter out."
The little eunuch left the place after receiving Emperor Linghui's order. He quickly conveyed Emperor Linghui's words.
But after a while, he came back very quickly. He was sweating a lot on his forehead as he ran back and forth. Firstly, he was tired, and secondly, he was scared. He passed Huang Jian's words to Emperor Linghui, and he Said: "No, Your Majesty! This Huang Jian. He is crazy. He refuses to leave. He also said that this drum was left by Tai/Ancestor. No one can destroy it, and no one can stop him."
After hearing this, Emperor Linghui stood up in anger.
"He is going against the grain! OK, OK, if you have to die, if you have to give up your life, ask him to knock! Then ask him to knock, and no one can stop him!"
This Huang Jian was confused, did he have to offend them so blatantly? He really felt that his life was too comfortable, and something would happen every now and then that would make him feel uncomfortable.
Emperor Linghui was so angry that he paced back and forth in Kunning Palace.
Wen Chu could tell that Emperor Linghui didn't really want anything to happen to Huang Jian. After all, people like Huang Jian were no longer common.
Even after so many years, people who still stick to their true intentions, people who don’t even care about their lives, are not even comparable to Emperor Linghui himself.
Emperor Linghui didn't have so many ways out. After he failed, he chose the simplest one and lived an ignoble existence. But Huang Jian, even now, still wants to follow in the footsteps of the Taifu.
Wen Chu was also a little anxious. After thinking about it, she actually took out a few more copper coins from her cuffs.
Li Weiyan noticed her behavior and asked: "What do you do, what do you want to do?"
Wen Chu looked at him and said softly: "I just want to calculate whether Huang Jian can get what he wants today."
Wen Chu closed his eyes and lost the copper coin. The copper coins fell on the table, making a crisp sound, and went back and forth like this three times.
When Emperor Linghui heard the sound, he also stopped and looked at the hexagrams on the table.
After learning that Wen Chu had thrown the copper coins, Li Weiyan asked: "How is it? Is it good or bad?"
Wen Chu looked at the hexagram with a serious expression.
Seeing that she was silent, Li Weiyan became a little anxious, "Xiao Chu, speak."
Emperor Linghui, who had not spoken for a long time, paused for a moment after seeing the hexagram. , He has been practicing Taoism for many years, and he knows a little bit about these things, and he also understands whether they are bad or good.
After understanding the hexagram clearly, he finally stopped hesitating and strode out of the palace.
Wen Chu watched Emperor Linghui leave and finally said.
"Good luck and good fortune."
The hexagram says that Huang Jian's trip will bring good luck and good fortune, and he will definitely get what he wants.
But what exactly is his wish?
Emperor Linghui once shared what Huang Jian wanted, and he knew best what Huang Jian wanted.
But he also knows that if he really gets what he wants today, the end will not be good. Therefore, when he saw the hexagram, he was so eager to go out.
Wen Chu didn't have time to think too much and immediately followed.
Li Weiyan also followed. The queen also wanted to go and have a look, but was dissuaded by Li Weiyan. He said: "The queen is not in good health. What will happen to your son when he comes back?"
< br>The queen thought so, nodded, and warned: "Keep an eye on my sister."
Li Weiyan nodded in agreement and immediately followed her out.
*
People are strictly prohibited from approaching the Meridian Gate. At this moment, except for officers and soldiers, there are not many others here.
Emperor Linghui could hear Huang Jian's drumming and his shouting at the top of his lungs from a long distance away.
Perhaps because he shouted for too long, his voice was very hoarse.
But you can still hear his accusation clearly.
"I want to accuse, I have a grievance! The sky is above, the emperor is above the earth, the people have grievances, and the people want justice!"
Huang Jian's voice was so loud that he could almost be heard throughout the Meridian Gate.
The eyes of the surrounding officers and soldiers jumped when they heard this. They did not expect that this man could survive to such an extent. They were listening to his words and felt like thorns on their backs just standing here. .
Everyone was surprised when they saw Emperor Linghui coming. Over the years, Emperor Linghui used the excuse of Xuanxiu to not go to court and not want to see ministers, so he stayed in Qianqing Palace all day long. , but he didn’t expect that he would come to the Meridian Gate today because of this person.
A group of people around them hurriedly saluted, and the whole Meridian Gate immediately heard the sound of "Long live my emperor, long live the emperor".
Emperor Linghui ignored him and strode up to Huang Jian.
Huang Jian heard the menacing footsteps behind him, but he didn't turn around yet, but the hand holding the mallet gradually dropped to his side.
Emperor Linghui's voice was full of anger. He said: "Huang Qingwei! I ask you, what do you want to do!"
Huang Jian heard this and finally replied After passing by, he did not answer Emperor Linghui's words, but just knelt down and saluted.
"Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"
His voice was already very hoarse, but these words actually carried a bit of pathos. .
Huang Jian is exactly the same as Wen Lilian.
The same stubbornness, the same stubbornness, you have to do whatever you decide, and you won’t change it until you die.
Emperor Linghui thought of the Taifu again. He couldn't bear the torture anymore, so he actually snatched the mallet from his hand and smashed it aside.
"No knocking, I told you not to knock!"
Huang Jiandao: "The emperor is too late, it is already too late, they are coming."
Emperor Linghui knew who he was talking about.
He said: "Get out, get out right now!"
Seeing that he refused to move, Emperor Linghui even grabbed him.
"You leave, you leave right away, I bet, nothing happened today!"
Huang Jian was also quite stubborn at this time, actually talking to the king Resisting, he said: "If you don't leave, I can't leave. I won't be able to leave for a long time."
When the Taifu died, he was also trapped in the Jinluan Palace, and his rest of his life was wasted.
How does he walk? Every step he takes feels like a thousand pounds. Layers of shackles surround him. Where does he go?
Seeing how stubborn he was, Emperor Linghui said to the soldiers on the side: "Come here! Drag him away! Drag him away!"
His tone was a bit urgent. , it seems that there is a savage beast chasing behind him. If he is a little late, he will die.
However, it was still too late.
The Queen Mother's voice came from behind.
"Where to drag it? Since you have beaten the Dengwen drum, the emperor, why do you ignore it?"
Her voice was neither urgent nor slow, but it stepped on the top of everyone's hearts.
The Queen Mother was also accompanied by He Hong and Fang Xiu, who accompanied her.
In the entire Dazhao, the inner court, the harem, and the outer dynasty, three people with quite distinguished status were standing together at this moment.
One can imagine what happened to Huang Jian.
The Empress Dowager said: "It is a rule set by our ancestors to beat the drum and not obey it. What are you doing? It is reasonable and legal!"
Ling Emperor Hui was questioned by her, but remained unmoved, "So what if it's not in line with etiquette! Why do I still care about nonsense etiquette after all these years! Mother, how long are you going to force me again, and how long are you going to force me?! Still Isn’t it enough? The whole Dazhao is in your hands, is it not enough? Is it so difficult for me to be alone? You have forced Taifu to death, what do you want to do now? Mother, I don’t understand. I won’t be able to understand until my death. I am your child, why do you treat me like this!”
What kind of feelings are there between the Tian family?
Emperor Linghui had long known the face of the Empress Dowager, and what he said at this moment was just to arouse the last bit of mother-son affection between her and him.
He still wanted to save Huang Jian.
However, what is not unexpected is.
Emperor Linghui’s strenuous questioning did not make the Queen Mother feel any soft-hearted or fearful at all. She even found it very interesting that Emperor Linghui was about to collapse, and she actually smiled at the corner of her mouth.
She touched the meticulous bun on her head and said: "I said, those are the rules left by the ancestors and cannot be broken. They have nothing to do with the mother-child relationship between you and me. He If you want to say something, you must say it, and the thirty big words that you deserve must not be missed."
Huang Jian didn't wait for Emperor Linghui to continue, and spoke up first: "I. Accept it, I am willing to accept it!”
Thirty big boards, if the person who hits them is ruthless, it can kill him.
And the Queen Mother was right next to him, how could he let him survive those thirty boards.
Emperor Linghui was so disappointed that he only looked at the Empress Dowager with disgust.
Seeing that Huang Jian was determined to die, he refused to let go. As such, there was no way he could be saved today.
Always like this, again!
Huang Jian said: "I can take the punishment, I can give up my life, but I want to accuse first! I have injustice to say!"
He Hong heard Huang Jian say this and sneered, "Fart, take the punishment first, Complain again ! What’s the point of making accusations first? I’ve seen you like this a lot. Do you want to escape? "
A clear voice came.
Everyone looked in the direction of the speaker and saw Song Yusheng in crimson official uniform walking from not far away.
He Hong said: "That's how it is. You are the minister of Dali Temple, so you can talk nonsense? You wrote it down in black and white, first write it down and then accuse!"
How could He Hong and the others let Huang Jian open his mouth? Just thinking about it, they knew what he was going to say. If he really opened his mouth, they would have to make a mess. The best thing would be to kill him first and not give him the chance to speak at all.
He never thought that Song Yusheng would come to join in the fun, but knowing that he was a member of the crown prince's party, he took this opportunity to stab them. It was a good deal.
How could He Hong let him have his way?
He said: "The minister of Dali Temple is proficient in the names of punishments, so he should know the word 'law'. It cannot be broken by love. You can't say that just because you say it is okay, then it is okay. Then this world can And the word "Wang Fa"
He Hong is still talking about the word "King's Law". He is the only one who doesn't take this word seriously.
Song Yusheng said: "If it is written in black and white, I would not dare to lie, but there is another line behind this law. Has Sir He forgotten it?"
It's not just He. Hong didn't remember it, and few people present remembered it either.
Li Weiyan knew what Song Yusheng meant, and he added: "Except those who have made a life and death warrant."
The implication is that as long as Huang Jian makes a life and death warrant, he can first accuse and then If he dares to escape, he will be killed directly.
He Hong and his party choked at these words, and finally had nothing to say. The Queen Mother showed a bit of sinisterness and looked at Huang Jian.
She said: "Okay, someone here takes a pen and paper and makes a sign of life and death!"
Huang Jian didn't say anything and quickly wrote down a sign of life and death.
He put down his pen and immediately knelt down in front of Emperor Linghui.
“I want to sue Lin Luo, the Minister of Household Affairs, and He Hong, the Minister of Industry, for corruption and bribery!”
When Huang Jian said this, he almost roared.
Everyone knew it already and knew he would talk about it.
But even though he had guessed it a long time ago, he still felt a bit shocked when he was asked to say it directly.
There are white clouds in the sky and the sky is clear. September after the rain has suddenly entered autumn, and the air is full of coolness.
He Hongdao: "You are slanderous, you are slanderous! You have to provide evidence for everything you say. Do you think you can just open and close your mouth and spread rumors!"
Huang Jian was not to be outdone, "Evidence, evidence is everywhere! This rice has been poured into your pockets again and again. Do you think what you do is so flawless? If you show off the things you do well, you still think you can hide it. .in the palace So much relief food has been sent out, and I ask you, why is it that the food in the mouths of the people is still dirt and gravel, and why are there hungry and cold babies everywhere in Kyoto? You said that I am spreading rumors! casual Arrest someone and ask them if I am telling the truth! He Hong, Master He did more than that. I want to sue him for kidnapping children, imprisoning boys and girls, raping, killing and persecuting. Tired! ”
He Hong did not expect that Huang Jian would dare to talk about this matter. He was so angry that he wanted to step forward and kick Huang Jian to death. He did have this plan, but as soon as he made a move, Then Song Yusheng grabbed his arm.
Song Yusheng looked at He Hong with a smile and asked, "Master He, you have been exposed, so you are so angry?"
Song Yusheng's look made He Hong feel guilty, and he hated He said in a voice: "Why am I guilty? How can you not be angry when you are framed for no reason?!"
Song Yusheng said: "It's a lie after all, so why should I be angry?"
He Hong was stunned by what he said, and for a moment he didn't even know how to argue.
The Empress Dowager thought he was embarrassed and said: "What does it look like to be so calm? Come back. If you do it, you do it, if you don't do it, you don't do it. You are aboveboard, what are you afraid of."
As soon as the Queen Mother said these words, she wanted to take them off completely.
It seems like he has a clear conscience.
Huang Jiandao: "It doesn't matter. Whether it's true or false, we can always know whether it's true or false. The sky net is so open that it doesn't leak out. But, let me ask you, why, why was the porridge for the disaster relief a few days ago all water and mud? ?”
"Who said it was water mixed with mud?! Go and ask, who said it was water mixed with mud?"
He Hong said angrily: "Go, go find someone on the street for me. , come here! I want to ask who said the porridge was mixed with mud."
The soldier who was called did not dare to delay, and quickly went to find someone.
Two or three people were brought here one after another. When they saw that the emperor they had often reviled was actually standing in front of them, they were so frightened that their legs trembled. Before anyone could tell them to kneel down, The knees were already weak to the ground.
If you are far away from something like "Emperor", it doesn't matter how much you curse, but when someone stands in front of you, you still have to obey.
Before they could say anything, He Hong strode forward. He grabbed a person by the collar, pointed at Huang Jian, and asked: "Let me ask you, he said that the disaster relief food in the city was mixed with sand." The mud porridge is like this."
He Hong was so angry that he wanted to spit out two balls of fire from his nostrils.
The person being pulled followed the direction of his finger and looked at Huang Jian. He made a big fuss that day, and half of the people in Kyoto knew it, just like him.
But he withdrew his gaze and looked at He Hong in front of him. Hearing his questioning, he didn't understand what was happening.
The person in front of me may be the person who greedy the disaster relief food.
He opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw He Hong's warning gaze, he closed his mouth again.
If he had said that, he would have been chopped alive as soon as he left here. His son would give him a grandson next year! He doesn't want to die yet.
After a battle between heaven and man in his heart, he lowered his head and trembled: "I, I don't know."
He Hong was still reluctant, "I don't know, what does it mean to not know?" !?”
The man couldn’t help it and fell to the ground, his forehead firmly pressed against the ground. He said: “I didn’t see it, I didn’t see it.”
He Hong asked several other people, but they all said no.
Wen Chu saw from the side that Huang Jian's back, which was still straight, suddenly bent.
Wen Chu felt an uncomfortable lump in his throat. He hit the drum and made a deafening echo, but the sound stopped abruptly at this moment.
Is life worth it? Life is not worth it, give up.
Wen Chudu no longer knew how to describe this situation, he only felt it was very ironic. He could save his life, but other people's lives could be saved. How could he do such a thing alone?
Just when the tip of Wen Chu's nose felt sore, someone suddenly grabbed his wrist.
She turned her head to look and saw a hand as white as jade, holding her wrist.
She was very familiar with this hand. Except for Song Yusheng, no one else had such beautiful hands.
She didn't know what Song Yusheng meant, but the two of them were in the corner now, and she didn't want to make any noise to attract other people's attention. Wen Chu just frowned and asked: "What are you doing?"
Song Yusheng did not reply to her, but just said: "Come with me."
