When the emperor stayed in caizhou yamen, Wu Yong, the county magistrate, had already met him at the door. When he saw the emperor, he had to kneel down. He was stared at by the emperor before he changed his salute and welcomed the emperor and his party into the door.
After entering the yamen, the emperor asked Leng Qingyan to rest, while he discussed things with Wu Yong in the lobby.
"Your Majesty has come all the way, and I hope your majesty can atone for your loss!" Wu Yong took a glass of wine to the emperor on the wine table. The emperor smiled and touched the glass with Wu Yong. Wu Yong was flattered and watched the emperor carefully drink the glass of wine.
"Wu Yong, I remember you were just a small county magistrate. I promoted you only when your brother Wu Neng said you could be reused. Is that how you repay me now?" the emperor took a sip of wine, looked up at Wu Neng and said.
Wu Yong immediately knelt on the ground when he heard the speech, "Your Majesty, stop your anger! I deserve to die!"
The emperor took a bite of meat and put it into his mouth. He said faintly, "you have kept the victims out of the city gate. You really deserve to die!"
"Your Majesty, you don't know that those victims will rob the people's things. They are not ordinary victims, and the minister did so for the sake of the people." Wu Yong whispered, glanced at the emperor's face secretly, and said to the emperor when he saw that the emperor's face was a little relieved: "Your Majesty, you must have seen them today. I heard that the victims also attacked you. Your majesty, you should let them go. It's really a thing that doesn't know how to live or die. Even your majesty dare to attack. Fortunately, they didn't hurt you."
The emperor took a sip of wine from his glass, then looked up at Wu Yong and said, "I saw them. They were just controlled by someone. The person who controlled them is dead!"
"It was controlled by someone. Fortunately, the minister didn't kill them." Wu Yong whispered.
The Emperor didn't care what incompetence said. He directly asked him if anyone had spread words in caizhou recently.
"There are bad comments about your Majesty in major restaurants and teahouses. The lower officials have arrested those scholars who chew color roots and waited for your majesty to come down," Wu Yong said.
The emperor's face is getting worse and worse. There are bad comments about himself all the way these days. What is the purpose of this momentum maker and what good is it to him to destroy his image?
"Your Majesty, what about those scholars?" Wu Yong asked in a low voice when he saw that the Emperor didn't speak.
The emperor was thinking about it. As soon as Wu Yong called him back to see him, he said to Wu Yong, "I want to interrogate myself!"
"··" Wu Yong's forehead was in a cold sweat. The emperor wanted to interrogate him himself. Fortunately, he didn't kill those scholars.
"You arrange it, I'll interrogate it now!" the emperor took a sip of wine from the wine glass on the table and said.
Wu Yong was stunned and hurriedly said yes!
After half a cup of tea, the emperor went to the court, and more than a dozen scholars were escorted to the court. The emperor sat on the lobby, holding jingtangmu tightly in his hands. His dignified eyes swept over several scholars present, and heavily patted the jingtangmu on the table of the court.
"Who ordered you to spread words everywhere?" the emperor's voice sounded faintly.
"Dog officer, kill if you want, whatever you want!" said one of the scholars.
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at the scholar and said, "I am the dog emperor who forcibly occupied his brother's wife and killed his son. I give you a chance to live today. If you are willing to tell the people behind the scenes, you can live. If you are not willing to say it, I will kill you in court. My patience is limited. If you want to live, you'd better not talk."
Although the emperor was dressed in civilian clothes, his inherent dignity and authority virtually shocked the group of scholars. The expressions on the faces of more than a dozen scholars became loose. Timidly, he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the grass people are willing to say. The grass people will tell you everything. You don't kill the grass people!"
The emperor raised his eyes and looked at the scholar. His skin was a little dark. The white robe looked very funny on him. Looking at his inverted triangular eyes, he was a cunning person. Such a person could read Confucius' Analects! The emperor couldn't believe it. He looked at the other scholars. They all looked like scoundrels, and none of them looked like books They look like strangers. These people are almost nondescript in scholar's robes.
"Say!" the emperor reached out and played with his grandmother's green jade wrench on his thumb.
The scholar bowed to the ground and gave the emperor a big gift, shrugged and said, "the grass people are local ruffians and hooligans in caizhou. A few days ago, a girl came to me and said that as long as I said a few words in the restaurant, I could get five liang of silver. The grass people were greedy and did what the girl said. The grass people really didn't mean to offend your majesty."
While the scholar was talking, he carefully looked at the emperor's face. Seeing that the emperor was not angry, he took five liang of silver out of his arms and said, "this is the money she gave. The grass people didn't use it. Your majesty spare your life, and the grass people don't dare anymore!" the scholar trembled uncontrollably. When he spoke, there was something wrong with the preface.
The emperor motioned Wu Yong with his eyes to take the five Liang silver. Wu Yong came forward to take the silver to the emperor. The emperor took the silver and looked at it for a moment. His fingers gently stroked the special lines on the silver, and his fingers rubbed the lines at the bottom. He slowly turned over and looked at the nine words on his eyes. His eyes suddenly became cold.
Tang yuntu again! He did what he did in Dongjiang last time. Tang yuntu is much smarter than his father and knows how to build momentum.
I underestimated the suckling boy!
"Wu Yong, kill them all!" the emperor dropped a word, stood up and left.
"Your Majesty, you said that as long as the grass people said, they could live. You can't make a mistake!" the scholar, pale, climbed to the emperor's side and put his hands around the emperor's calf.
The emperor looked down at the scholar, raised his mouth and asked with a smile, "when did I say that? How did I forget?" when he closed his mouth, the emperor kicked the scholar out··
——
Leng Qingyan carefully studied the book of war in her hand. When she saw the subtlety, she would take a pen to annotate. Huilin was waiting next to her, and lilac was making her bed.
Lilac made the bed and found Leng Qingyan still reading. She frowned and stared at Huilin. Her mother is a pregnant person. How can she read like this!
Clove reached out and took the military book in Leng Qingyan's hand and said to Leng Qingyan, "madam, you are a person with body now. It's not good to read for a long time. Why don't you have a rest early at night!"
Leng Qingyan frowned gently, looked at clove and said, "I know! Just you!"
Clove was helpless. She didn't know how she hated her again. She smiled and said, "madam, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the little prince in your stomach! Slaves also think about her body."
"I know, if you are good for the palace, you will read it in pieces!" Leng Qingyan rolled his eyes at clove and stretched his waist. He got up from his seat, walked to the bed and looked up at the night outside.
