Chapter 217: Cutting off the king
At the beginning of the change, it was time for the children of the royal family to work together. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The king of Shu felt that his father was already dissatisfied with the king of Chu's siege of the Yan Wangfu, otherwise, when he came to the Yan Wangfu, he slapped the king of Chu without saying a word.
At this moment, the king of Chu continued to impeach Yang Yue, wanting to put Yang Yue to death, and directly poked the emperor in the sore spot.
Yang Mingkun took the letter, borrowed the torch light, and browsed it hastily, in the letter, there were many things, listing more than ten crimes committed by Yang Yue in Bohai.
However, a little investigation will show that the contents of the letter are apocryphal and have no reliability.
Yang Mingkun glared at King Chu, snorted lightly, handed the letter to Yang Yue, and asked coldly: "Liulang, how do you explain?" ”
Yang Yue is stationed outside and holds heavy power, if, as described in the letter, he secretly gathers money and food, and secretly recruits troops and horses, it means that he covets the position of the prince.
Now, he reuses Yang Yue in the imperial court, and if he doesn't deter Yang Yue, it will bring big problems.
Yang Yue took the letter, his demeanor was unwavering, he browsed quickly, glanced up at the King of Chu, and then looked at Yang Mingkun, and said: "Father, the evidence listed in the letter, the sons dare not agree, the sons are in the Bohai Sea, every time they seize grain, horses, cattle and sheep, there are detailed bills, and all the cavalry are sent back to the court.
As for the letter that framed his sons, killed the people of Bohai, and pretended to be military merits, his father sent officials from the Criminal Department to Bohai, and if his sons had a little bit of military merit, they were left to his father's disposal. ”
The contents of the letter are confusing and deliberately framed.
Besides, if the content of the letter was true, Yang Mingkun would have sent guards to take him down.
However, Yang Mingkun refused to give up, stared at Yang Yue with cunning in his eyes, and asked: "The letter describes that you returned from the Bohai Sea and brought back 50,000 gold, why didn't you hand it over to the court, what do you explain?" ”
The matter of gold, Yang Mingkun knew it, but after the Changle Fang bet, Yang Yue won a big victory, and the private money of Yan Wangfu exceeded that of the court, at this moment, Yang Mingkun had the idea of taking advantage of the fire to rob and blackmail Yang Yue.
Besides, he hadn't done it before.
"Father, 50,000 gold, all of which are the savings of the right Wuwei for three years, are the expenses of the right Wuwei and the palace, and the minister has reported this matter to his father." Yang Yue guessed Yang Mingkun's thoughts and said helplessly.
These are all his private money, the king of Chu said, the emperor's attitude is ambiguous, and it is obvious that he wants to take it for himself.
No matter how much he explains, there is nothing to make up for, but to transfer his anger to the head of King Chu.
Yang Mingkun waved his hand and said coldly: "Yang Yan, someone pretended to frame Liulang with your hand, can't you see it, it's extremely stupid!" ”
After that, he said to Yang Yue: "Liulang, corruption and fraud, and pretending to be military merits are all false, but the money in and out of the army is all managed by the household department, and you keep the money privately, what is your intention?" ”
Hearing this, Yang Yue sighed, people are under the eaves, he has to bow his head, business is unpredictable, he can only break the wealth and eliminate the disaster, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Father, this 50,000 gold, the son of the minister will hand over to the household department, and if the right military guard needs it, he will apply to the household department." ”
Yang Mingkun knew that Yang Yue's mansion had a lot of money and grain, and the court was in short supply of silver, although there was only 50,000 gold, which was equivalent to a lot of silver.
At the same time, Yang Yue has money and soldiers in his hands, and he is always in great trouble, and he has trouble sleeping.
At this time, Yang Yue's attitude was firm, and his uneasiness was slightly dispelled, and he even secretly rejoiced at robbing Yang Yue of 50,000 gold.
He cleared his throat and ordered: "Liulang, you take the initiative to hand it in, and I will no longer pursue it, and tomorrow morning, all the five million silver will be transported to the treasury." ”
"Yes!" Yang Yue was distressed, but he didn't dare not agree.
For a while, Yang Mingkun was silent, as if he was pondering, and said to Yang Yue slightly: "The imperial court is short of money and grain, and the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce has helped many times, and his loyalty is unparalleled.
In the reform, Wen Renshi was allowed to participate in mineral development, and I was grateful to Wen Renshi. ”
"Yes!" Yang Yue nodded.
After solving Yang Yue's matter, finally, Yang Mingkun shifted his gaze to the King of Chu and asked sharply: "Yang Yue, are you guilty?" ”
"The sin of the son!" Facts have proved that Yang Yue did not engage in favoritism, but he caused a big disaster, and the king of Chu was like a tiger with his claws removed, and he did not have any majesty for a while.
"What are your sins?" Yang Mingkun asked, with a strong attitude.
"Erchen shouldn't transfer troops without authorization and besiege Yanwangfu, this move has a very bad impact!" King Nuo Nuo of Chu replied, fearing that he would be severely punished and severely punished.
Syllable! Yang Mingkun clenched his fist and smashed it on the wooden box, shouting, "Is that all?" ”
At the beginning of the court reform, all parties should unite and work together, and the actions of the king of Chu were not good in impact and were not conducive to the implementation of the reform.
The king of Chu panicked, frowned, and stammered: "The son is dull, please point it out to my father."
"Humph!" Yang Mingkun said angrily: "The king of Chu knew the law and broke the law, and led the guards in the palace to besiege the palace of the king of Yan, influencing the evil strategy, cutting off the title of the king of Chu, demoting him to the city of Echeng, and no longer participating in the change." ”
"Father?" Cutting off the prince, the king of Chu was a little unwilling and hurriedly said.
Unexpectedly, Yang Mingkun's face was as cold as iron: "What, is the punishment too light?" ”
For a while, the king of Chu didn't dare to speak, and said, "The son obeys the order." ”
Next to him, the King of Shu, who wanted to intercede with the King of Chu, suddenly did not dare to say much, for fear of provoking a troubleless disaster.
However, as a victim, Yang Yue was not willing to give up, and stepped forward to Yang Mingkun and said bluntly: "Father, the third brother led the guards to besiege the prince's mansion, which seriously affected the reputation of the son's minister, not to mention, Xuan'er was innocently injured in the fierce battle, if the father did not appear in time, no one dared to guarantee what the consequences would be."
cut off the third brother and the prince, thought about it behind closed doors, and the subordinates were not convinced! ”
"San Lang, what do you want to do?" Yang Mingkun's expression was calm, but he was unhappy in his heart.
The king of Chu was also angry at Yang Yue's downfall, but unfortunately, in this game, he lost cleanly, so what could he do to compete with Yang Yue?
Yang Yue said tepidly: "Third brother, listening to the words of the traitor, leading the guards to besiege the palace of the sons, there is a crime of inspection."
If you hurt the princess in the fierce battle, the crime will be increased by one degree, and you will not be severely punished, and you will be imprisoned, and you will be compensated for the money for the soup and medicine of the palace guards, otherwise the children will not accept it.
Otherwise, in the midst of change, Wen Chenwu will feel that his sons are easy to bully, and it will also bring unnecessary trouble to the change. ”
He warned the King of Chu, but the King of Chu did not appreciate it, and now he has injured Yuwen Linxuan and insulted his reputation, so he must be severely punished.
Although it is said that taking the title of King of Chu has a great impact on the King of Chu, however, in the future, the King of Chu will make meritorious contributions and restore the king.
People fight for a breath, the Buddha receives a pillar of incense, and the king of Chu cannot be expelled from Chang'an, and the king of Chu should not be allowed to do evil.
Yang Mingkun was angry and felt that Yang Yue had to make inches.
However, at the beginning of the reform, the court could no longer make waves, and Yang Yue borrowed another five million silver to solve the finances.
Yang Yue's punishment of the King of Chu was too much, and it was understandable, Yang Mingkun nodded: "It's okay, according to what Liulang said, Yang Yan, imprisoned the palace for a year, thought about it behind closed doors, and devoted himself to revising the law, if you continue to jump up and down during the period, you will return to Ezhou."
