Chapter 1581 What a big pot
Faced with the rare intimacy and appreciation from his father in recent years, Wei King Li Tai's first feeling was not ecstasy, but deep confusion...
I don’t even know what I did, how could I do it well?
With a puzzled look on his face, His Majesty Li Er pushed him down into a chair. After the pretty palace maid served him fragrant tea, His Majesty Li Er said happily: "You handled this matter very well, just to give those who are always there The door to stirring up wind and rain is clear My advice, since you are no longer thinking about the position of prince, keep those guys away! Do what you should do. With the character of the prince, except this position, I can give you everything else. You!”
Li Tai did not dare to talk nonsense. After pondering for a long time, he could not figure out what his father meant by "well done". It seemed that he had drawn a line with the family because of something he had done, which made his father no longer worried. Two sons compete for the position of crown prince and the brothers are at odds with each other...
But I still don't know what I did?
With an embarrassed cough, Li Tai asked cautiously: "Father is too praised...but what does father mean?"
His Majesty Li Er laughed, patted Li Tai on the shoulder, and said with a look of approval: "Why, are you scared? Don't be afraid of impeachment by those imperial officials! The empire must open up the channels of speech and supervise officials. Father, even more Advice must be taken into consideration, so the censor Yan Guan must exist. But you must also remember that the Tang Dynasty will never be punished for words. No matter who it is, even if it is a violation of heaven, the evidence must be conclusive to be convicted. It must not be because of Yu Shi Yan Guan. He was convicted of impeachment.”
Li Tai blinked, still confused...
His Majesty Li Er saw Li Tai's expression in his eyes, as if he had seen the uneasy Qingque who had caused trouble in front of him again, and laughed and said: "Stand up your chest, as a man of my Li family , The head may be broken and the blood may bleed, but don’t act cowardly at any time! You dare to send people to throw all the booksellers’ goods into the river. That’s good, my son Li Er. Is it okay to let others bully you? But you don’t dare to fight back? You just want to severely dampen their spirit! You have to learn from Fang Jun. Although Na Bangchui sometimes makes his father angry, no matter how courageous or responsible he is, , are rare among the younger generation. Young people must dare to take responsibility, even if they make mistakes, they must have a domineering mind. This is what a man should have!”
What's so scary about making mistakes?
If you know you made a mistake and can correct it, then you will still be an upright man! If you shrink back because you are afraid of making mistakes, your achievements in life will be limited.
Even if you cannot become the supreme being in the world, as a man, you still need to have the determination to move forward bravely, so that you can do something earth-shattering, be famous in history, and be famous for generations to come!
Li Tai rubbed his face and asked in surprise: "What did your father say? Throw all the goods in the book into the river?"
When did this happen?
Why didn't I know?
His Majesty Li Er frowned and felt a little strange about Li Tai's reaction: "Didn't you instruct people to throw all the books and papers from those seventeen booksellers into the river?"
Li Tai was shocked: "Is there such a thing? I don't know about it at all! It wasn't Erchen who did it!"
I have developed the habit of blaming the blame since I was a child. Every time I get into trouble, I think of excuses. Now when I encounter something, I subconsciously deny it and throw away the responsibility.
His Majesty Li Er wondered: "You didn't do it, so why are those people showing off on the pier, saying they were ordered by King Wei?"
As soon as he said the words, he thought of a possibility and glanced at Li Tai...
"Is it Fang Jun?"
"It must be Fang Jun!"
The father and son spoke in unison...
Li Tai gritted his teeth and became furious: "This bastard actually used my name to bully and bully the market. He vented his anger, but let me bear the impeachment of the censor and the wrath of those powerful people. This is simply too much! You really deserve it. Isn’t this king made of clay? ”
What a big pot!
The bastard Fang Jun vented his anger, but let me bear the wrath of the aristocratic families behind those booksellers?
This person is too wicked!
His Majesty Li Er remained silent.
I have been praising my feelings for a long time. Wasn’t my son the one who did this?
This is embarrassing...
Li Tai got angry, and when he came to his senses, he closed his mouth in embarrassment.
It seems like...father just praised him for doing this well?
Mother!
*****
Li Junxian personally rushed to Jingzhao Mansion and conveyed His Majesty Li Er's oral instructions to Jingzhao Yin Ma Zhou. Ma Zhou said that he would comply with the order.
Who wants to take care of this nonsense between a noble family and the prince?
It is also said that Ma Zhounai was born in a poor family, so he naturally had no good feelings for the family and his style of behavior became even more disgusting...
As soon as Li Junxian left, Chu Yanfu angrily came to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and sued King Wei Li Tai for causing his slaves to destroy countless books and papers in the Chu family.
The clerk in charge of registration collected the pleadings and recorded them in the case. The case was considered to be filed, waiting for the trial to be held on a scheduled date. But Chu Yanfu still refused to leave, clamoring to meet Jing Zhaoyin...
There is no way, the family members have all kinds of privileges. Even Ma Zhou, who is extremely indifferent to the family members, cannot ignore such explicit rules and can only receive them.
In the check-in room, Ma Zhou ordered the clerk to bring the document and read it carefully. Chu Yanfu sat opposite Ma Zhou, chattering as if he had suffered a great injustice...
"We have a bright and prosperous Tang Dynasty, but we never thought that such evil acts of openly destroying other people's property would happen. Is there any royal law? Even His Highness, the King of Wei, is a subject of the Tang Dynasty, and he must abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Right? He is beating people and damaging property. If he cannot be severely punished according to the law, I am afraid that the people of the Tang Dynasty will think that our country is tyrannizing the Qin Dynasty and is not good for the country!"
There was no expression on Ma Zhou Qinghui's face, but his eyebrows were wrinkled. He raised his eyelids and pointed at Chu Yanfu, and said calmly: "Chu Dalang, be careful what you say! Out of the friendship between me and your father who served as officials in the same court, let's give it a try. I think you just made a slip of the tongue and will not be held accountable. If you continue to speak so openly outside, you should think clearly about the consequences.”
Tyrannical Qin rule?
Are you a fool? You dare to say these words!
Although today's system is open and people are not punished for their words, your sentence "violent Qin's government" obviously contains dissatisfaction with the Tang Dynasty and the emperor. If it is spread, it will easily cause a public opinion storm. Your Majesty will definitely be furious. , Beheading your head may not be possible, but it is inevitable that the family will be harmed!
Chu Suiliang was a great calligrapher in the world and was deeply trusted by His Majesty. How could he have such a reckless son?
What a scam, this is...
Chu Yanfu turned pale with fright and quickly shut up, not daring to say anything.
Ma Zhou looked at the petition. He had good literary talent and good calligraphy. He was worthy of being the son of Chu Suiliang. He had a good family background. Even if he was not very successful, his literary talent was much better than that of ordinary descendants of noble families.
It’s just...
"Chu Dalang has extraordinary literary talent and is very good. However, although this petition describes what happened, it does not have a clear quantity of the damaged things. You just ask that His Highness the King of Wei be severely punished and compensated. Then What is the amount of this compensation? ”
Chu Yanfu was stunned and said: "I am not making unreasonable troubles. Although the King of Wei bullies others and is tyrannical, how can he be harsh for the sake of His Majesty's face? Naturally, how much property has been damaged can be compensated according to the price. For an extra penny, our Chu Yanfu Not even at home.”
This sentence was quite well spoken, seemed very generous, and gave the emperor face.
But...
Ma Zhou raised his hand and put the piece of paper on the table, and said helplessly: "What I mean is how much property did you destroy?"
Chu Yanfu said: "All the books and papers in the entire warehouse on the dock were destroyed and soaked in the river. As for the specific number, there are naturally records in the account books to prove it."
Ma Zhou shook his head and said: "That's your own account book. You wouldn't use your own account book as a voucher, would you? It's not impossible, but the evidence will be thinner and less convincing." . After all, if the King of Wei suspects that you have changed the account books, it is reasonable and logical."
Chu Yanfu's eyes widened and he said angrily: "My family has been loyal for generations and has a clean family tradition. How can I do such a dirty thing and just be greedy for a few dollars in compensation?"
Ma Zhou said with a cold face: "I just said that it is possible. Can you deny it?"
Of course it cannot be denied.
Now that we have reached the judicial process, we cannot use morality as the standard, but rely on factual evidence. This has been true throughout the ages.
It is certainly possible to tamper with the account books privately in order to demand more compensation...
Chu Yanfu had no choice but to ask: "What does Ma Fuyin think should be done?"
This was a loss of tens of thousands of dollars. Chu Yanfu wanted to give it up, but he really couldn't bear it...
Ma Zhou Youyou said: "It's not difficult at all. With three-party verification of your family's account books, the records of goods coming in and out of the dock, and the accounts of the shops where your family purchases goods, we can naturally determine a number that is closer to the real number."< br>
What?
Chu Yanfu's face turned dark and he said angrily: "In this case, wouldn't it be necessary to go to the printing workshops and papermaking workshops in Jiangnan to investigate in detail?"
The south of the Yangtze River is thousands of miles away from here. The mountains are high and the water is far away. It can't take half a year to come and go? (End of chapter)
