Chapter 43: How to Choose Between the Law and Brotherhood
Chapter 43: How to Choose Between the Law and Brotherhood
Li Yuanji, Li Xiaochang, and the eldest grandson Anye were tied up by five flowers and pressed on the square outside the Xiande Palace.
The officials of the early dynasty all stopped to watch, and everyone looked different.
"Now the head of the king of Nghe Ann can't be saved."
"His head? The king of Nghe An County will not be beheaded this time. ”
"Don't you take a look, what will happen if the abolished King of Qin is not protected by General Chen?"
"The king of Yi'an County doesn't have a brother-in-law like General Chen!"
"What do you think King Qi will do?"
"I guess it's about the same as the Waste King of Qin, after all, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat."
"The eldest grandson Wuji still has half a month to be sentenced to death, and now it is the eldest grandson Anye...... This eldest grandson's family...... That's it! ”
"This can't be said, but I heard the eldest grandson enter the Chen Mansion!"
"Then I don't know, when I wait until the last dynasty, I will naturally see."
With the sound of drums and trumpets, Li Jiancheng strode in from outside the hall with a frosty face.
The ministers hurriedly looked solemn, they all knew that Li Jiancheng was in a restless mood at this time, and no one wanted to touch Li Jiancheng's mold at this time.
Li Jiancheng sat on the Danqi, his eyes were like electricity, scanning the crowd.
The ministers standing in the hall all shuddered, and they didn't dare to come out.
Suddenly, Li Jiancheng broke the silence and said coldly: "Everyone has seen it, the kneeling outside the Xiande Hall is the King of Qi Yi'an County King and the General of the Right Prison Guard, one is the prince with a prominent title in the imperial court, the other is the county king, and the other is the general of Zhengsipin, who actually dares to risk the disapproval of the world and besiege the Xiande Hall and the Ganlu Palace, which is really a big rebellion!" How audacious! ”
The ministers were even more shocked, glaring at each other to express their shock.
Li Jiancheng yelled: "Where are the people in the middle school? I want to severely punish and not lend, in order to set an example, Li Yuanji showed the public, Li Xiaochang, the eldest grandson Anye, and all the doors were copied! ”
Menxia Province, Zhongshu Sheren solemnly held the edict and walked into Menxia Province.
The provincial officials under the sect looked sideways at the Zhongshu people.
The Zhongshusheren turned pale and said in a cold voice: "What's in the matter?" ”
One of them got up and said, "The lower official is here!" ”
The Zhongshu Sheren said coldly: "The edict of the execution of the rebellious Li Yuanji, Li Xiaochang and the eldest grandson Anye, please sign it." ”
A subordinate Lang Zhong hurriedly asked the middle school to rest after the case, and waved his hand to signal Ling Shi to come and serve.
He said, "Wait a while, you can rest first and drink some hot tea soup." ”
Fang Xuanling walked leisurely into the province of Menxia, and saw the people of Zhongshu from a distance.
Fang Xuanling walked up to the middle scholar and said, "How can Your Excellency have time to come to the province?" ”
He hurriedly explained: "Xuan Ling Gong, Your Majesty's edict needs to be signed by the province." ”
Fang Xuanling was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Edict? What an edict, take a look. ”
explained to the matter: "This morning, Your Majesty dictated the edict to kill the traitors Li Yuanji, Li Xiaochang, and the eldest grandson Anye. ”
Fang Xuanling took the edict and looked at it carefully.
The people in the middle school put down the teacup and looked at Fang Xuanling playfully.
Fang Xuanling was the first subordinate to dare to refute the emperor's holy decree in the matter, and it was once or twice in a row, creating a feat that no one had ever done before, and he came later.
Zhongshusheren sneered: "Xuan Linggong, if there is no problem, please draw it, and the official will go back to restore his life!"
Hurriedly picked up the brush in the matter, and was about to draw on the edict, Fang Xuanling suddenly reached out and grabbed the brush in the matter, and said coldly: "You took the wrong pen." ”
As he spoke, Fang Xuanling picked up another brush and stirred it in the dansha, and the brush was full of cinnabar, bright red as blood.
Looking at this scene, the people around were all stunned, they didn't know what Fang Xuanling was crazy about at this time, did they want to shelter Li Yuanji and Li Xiaochang and other thieves?
In the stunned eyes of everyone, Fang Xuanling did not hesitate to draw a big cross on the edict.
The people around all looked at this big cross in amazement.
The scholar stretched out his hand and pointed at Fang Xuanling, and muttered for a long time: "Fang Xuanling...... You! ”
Fang Xuanling didn't care about handing the edict to the Zhongshu Sheren, and walked out leisurely.
The Zhongshu Sheren looked at Fang Xuanling's back and said: "Xuanling Gong, I'm afraid there is no way to explain this edict to Your Majesty, and I ask Xuanling Gong to ......."
Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "I'll accompany you to see Your Majesty!" ”
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the outside of the hall.
Zhongshu Sheren sighed, thinking in his heart that Fang Xuanling was a good death.
Can you not do that?
Coming to the Hall of Virtue, Li Jiancheng's eyes fell on the big red fork, his hand pinched the edict hard, because he was too hard, the knuckles had turned white, and he was so angry that his hands and feet trembled, in the big sleeve, the nail of Li Jiancheng's left hand had been deeply inserted into the flesh of his palm, and the blood flowed down the gap between his fingers.
The middle scholar standing next to him looked aggrieved.
Li Jiancheng looked at Fang Xuanling and said, "Fang Xuanling, what do you mean by this?" Why did you seal and return the edict to deal with rebellion? ”
Fang Xuanling stared at Li Jiancheng without changing his face and said, "Because, Your Majesty's handling is unfair!" ”
Li Jiancheng was so angry that he almost didn't catch his breath, he threw the edict on the desk hard, pointed at Fang Xuanling and said, "Why did I deal with it unfairly?" ”
Fang Xuanling said: "According to the confession, Li Yuanji, Li Xiaochang and Changsun Anye are all the main offenders in this case, and the charges are the same, they are all plotting against each other. ”
When Li Jiancheng heard this, he was extremely angry and overturned the case in front of him.
There was a loud bang.
Li Jiancheng strode out.
The Zhongshu people looked at Fang Xuanling with a look of resentment.
At this time, Wei Zheng hurriedly entered, looked at the mess in the hall, and looked at the big red fork of the edict, and said lightly: "Come on, clean up." ”
Fang Xuanling looked at Li Jiancheng's back, bowed and retreated, polite and courteous.
Fang Xuanling had just come out of the Xiande Palace, and happened to meet Yu Wenhua and came in a hurry, at this time, Yu Wenshi and his face were frosty, and he said angrily: "Fang Xuanling, you are so bold, you dare to put forward such a ridiculous ...... to Your Majesty It's really a big rebellion. ”
Fang Xuanling looked at Yuwen Shi with a stunned face and said, "Why did Yuwen Xiangguo say this? If you can't keep your duties, it is a dereliction of duty, and the emperor has a mistake and a mistake, so it must be pointed out. If the edict is unreasonable, it must be rejected, otherwise, the door under the door will be useless. You and I are clay sculptures and wood carvings, what face do you have standing here? ”
Yu Wenshi was so angry that he pointed at Fang Xuanling, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Fang Xuanling walked away.
The surrounding officials looked at Fang Xuanling's back with different expressions.
Although they didn't speak, they secretly thought in their hearts: "Fang Xuanling is really good at dying!" ”
……
Li Shentong took a large number of representatives of the Li family's clan and waited anxiously in the Ganlu Palace.
Li Shentong walked back and forth anxiously.
Li Yuan slowly walked into the main hall.
The Li family's clan members "hula", and they all rushed to Li Yuan and knelt down.
Li Shentong hugged Li Yuan's thigh and said, "Emperor Taishang, I am willing to ask Emperor Taishang to send an edict to His Majesty to exempt Li Xiaochang from the death penalty." Even though Xiao Chang committed a mortal crime, he is a clan relative within the five suits of our Li family after all. ”
Li Yuan looked at everyone coldly: "Are you going to gamble with my life?" ”
Everyone was stunned.
Li Yuan scolded angrily: "Li Xiaochang, a great rebel, why should I spare his life? Li Shentong, you fool, no matter how unfilial Shiro is, that is also my own son, my own son! ”
Li Shentong and the others were shocked.
Li Yuan said indignantly: "Li Xiaochang wants to take me to deal with my son, doesn't he hear the truth of "inseparable"? Why, Li Xiaochang wants to kill my son, but I actually go to beg my son to forgive Li Xiaochang? Is there such a truth in the world? ”
Li Shentong was submissive, and his forehead was full of cold sweat.
Under the leadership of Li Shentong, the clans left resigned.
At this time, Concubine Yin De looked at everyone and walked away cautiously, walked to Li Yuan's side cautiously, and said with a palpitating face: "Your Majesty, Li Xiao often rebels, and the concubine can understand, but the eldest grandson Anye rebelled?" The concubines can understand, why the king of Qi? He and the emperor are from the same family, and they are like siblings, why do you want to rebel against your eldest brother? ”
Li Yuan waved his hand a little impatiently and said: "You don't know, since ancient times, the royal family has no family affection, I understand, Da Lang and Shiro have never been brothers, it has always been Shiro who is playing ghosts, it turns out, I don't know, why Erlang can bury nails in the East Palace, and now I finally understand, with Shiro's inner ghost, Erlang can naturally do it." ”
Yang Wengan's rebellion, there are many things that cannot be explained, such as why Qiaogongshan wants to bite Li Jiancheng? Why did Yang Wengan help Li Shimin to create Li Jiancheng's rebellion?
Now I understand that Yang Wengan has not been Li Jiancheng's person at all from beginning to end, but Li Yuanji's person. From the rebellion of Yang Wengan to the night banquet in the East Palace, Li Shimin was poisoned, and the position of the crown prince was shaken, I am afraid it was all Li Yuanji's handiwork. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji are close relatives, but they are actually enemies.
Concubine Yin suddenly realized.
Concubine Yin De said: "Your Majesty, this time you don't have a public hatred or a private hatred, and you get what you want?" ”
Li Yuan casually picked up the teacup and said, "This matter, let Da Lang scratch his head." Kill Shiro, I white-haired man sent black-haired man, but Dalang ......"
Speaking of this, Li Yuan looked at the direction of the Xiande Hall with interest, and muttered to himself: "Da Lang, what choice will you make between the law and the love of brotherhood?" ”
……
In Jiaofang Palace, Zheng Guanyin, with the help of the maids, put on the queen's Luo clothes and wore a full pair of phoenix crowns.
The palace maid cautiously asked, "Niangniang, where is there any royal ceremony today?" ”
Zheng Guanyin said with a solemn expression: "I have state affairs, and I am here to meet Your Majesty." ”
The palace maid said unspeakably: "Niangniang, how can you wear such a heavy thing with your body!" ”
At this time, the seventh child of Li Jiancheng, who originally did not exist in this world, was already in Zheng Guanyin's belly, Zheng Guanyin was a well-born woman, almost two children in three years, never stopped.
At this time, the seventh child was already six months old, and Zheng Guanyin also looked clumsy.
Zheng Guanyin smiled: "Aren't there still you?" Just hold me a little carefully. ”
Several palace maids, trembling and frightened, played each other's colors, and carefully helped Changsun Luo to get up.
Zheng Guanyin dressed up in full costume, and with the support of the palace maid, he walked into the apse tremblingly.
Li Jiancheng, who had just changed into civilian clothes, was dumbfounded, and hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Zheng Guanyin and said, "Guanyin, you are ......"
Zheng Guanyin helped Li Jiancheng to support his hands, and bowed to Li Jiancheng and said, "The concubine respectfully congratulates Your Majesty."
Li Jiancheng hurriedly helped Zheng Guanyin up, and carefully helped her to sit down on the brocade bench, Li Jiancheng said with a straight face: "It's just nonsense, what's wrong with the fetal gas?" ”
Zheng Guanyin looked at Li Jiancheng with a smile and said, "The concubine is really happy for Your Majesty. ”
Li Jiancheng still looked Zheng Guanyin up and down uncomfortably and said, "I'm almost by that mud-legged hillbilly, and you're still happy." ”
Zheng Guanyin pulled Li Jiancheng to sit beside him, and said slowly: "I heard that Zhuge Liang, the minister of the pillar stone beside Liu Bei, the ancestor of the Shu Han Dynasty, is a mud-legged hillbilly, and King Wu of Zhou's father, Xiangguo Jiang Taigong, is also a mud-legged hillbilly, and now that Your Majesty is around, with mud-legged hillbillies like Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, isn't it a gratifying thing?" ”
Li Jiancheng was stunned, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "This matter is not the other thing." ”
Zheng Guanyin smiled and said softly: "Da Lang, didn't you swear to be a virtuous lord like the three generations of Holy Monarchs?" ”
Li Jiancheng nodded.
Zheng Guanyin said: "Concubine Wen Yao Shun Yu Tang Wenwu Jun, there must be Ji, Qi, Gao, Yi, and Wang ministers around him, abide by their duties, Kuang Zheng gains and losses, and now Fang Xuanling dares to take the risk of the axe and reject your edict, isn't he such a virtuous minister?" ”
Li Jiancheng was speechless for a while.
Li Jiancheng pointed to the maid and Gong E beside him and said: "Hurry up, take off, this outfit, it's time to catch up with the armor, you are not tired, I am tired for you!" ”
The palace maids carefully removed Zheng Guanyin's makeup.
Li Jiancheng walked back and forth on the side with a bitter face: "What can I do about this matter, I can't really let the law department connect you and me, right?" ”
Zheng Guanyin covered his forehead and looked at Li Jiancheng who was circling around, waved his hand to signal him to stop, and said hurriedly: "If you turn again, I will faint." ”
Li Jiancheng stopped and looked at Zheng Guanyin innocently.
Zheng Guanyin said with a bright smile: "Don't worry, I've thought about it, this matter is not difficult." ”
At this moment, the guards came and said, "Your Majesty, Shangshu's left servant shoots Chen Xiangguo and asks to see him!" ”
Zheng Guanyin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, your solution has come!" ”
Li Jiancheng said suspiciously: "You mean Chen Xiangguo?" ”
It didn't take long, and Chen should come with money.
In fact, Chen Ying had a reason to come, there was no way, Li Xiuning just started to kill Li Yuanji when he learned that Li Yuanji had rebelled, but afterwards, Li Xiuning's heart softened again, especially when the princess of Qi Yang took Li Yuanji's sons to Qinglin to see Li Xiuning and ask Li Xiuning to rescue Li Yuanji.
Li Xiuning was in a dilemma.
She also understands that Li Jiancheng has just ascended the throne, and now he is resisted by the Li clan and the Manchu clan.
The point is, everyone has two sets of rules of conduct.
Just like in the impetuous era of later generations, almost every man longed for an affair, and could meet a beautiful woman or young woman who could easily hook up with a bed.
However, they all hate their wives, don't use mobile phones, don't play Momo, WeChat, it's best to be like ancient women, three from four virtues.
Li Xiuning hoped that Chen Ying could help, but Chen Ying had no choice but to come to see Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying and said, "I am in a dilemma now, I wonder if Chen Qing can solve my doubts?" ”
Chen Yingdao: "Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, Li Xiaochang, the king of Yi'an County, and the eldest grandson Anye committed a capital crime, and their crimes should be punished, and the minister had no intention of interceding for him, but the Li clan had a grudge against His Majesty. Now that His Majesty has made it clear that he has been punished, outsiders will think that His Majesty is acting as a personal vendetta for the sake of the Gazette and that it is detrimental to His Majesty's holy name, so I ask Your Majesty to be lenient in order to show His Majesty's virtue. ”
Li Jiancheng groaned: "Is it in accordance with the law? ”
Chen Ying continued: "Your Majesty, there is a division to convict and sentence according to law, which is a national regulation; However, grace comes from above, and the emperor has the right to show grace and pardon to his courtiers. ”
