Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "You were stupid in the Hanlin Academy. That copybook is priceless, and it was given to Wen Wan by King Zhou. You actually dared to deceive Wen Wan and take that copybook as a gift. Who is King Zhou? No one in the entire capital doesn't know.  ? How dare you use it to curry favor with your boss? Why don't you try to have a good relationship with Wen Wan instead of finding a way to have a good relationship with the Prime Minister?  With your long-standing official reputation, your promotion will come naturally. What kind of evil have I done? Why do I die at the hands of women one by one?" After hearing the news, Ping's mother called Ping Xiangxi over.  A rebuke.  Cry and wipe away tears.  She went to see Wen Wan. Although she didn't like her and even somewhat disliked her, looking at her like that, if the news spread, there was another bad person in the Heng family.  It will be even more difficult for the grandchildren to get married in the future.

    After hearing this, Ping¡¯s mother had no choice but to do so.  But it was the first time that he felt disgusted with Anshi.  This was obviously her idea, a mindless thing.  He is a house-spoiler who messes up the whole family irresponsibly, and confuses his son with his sweet words so that he doesn't know what to do.  Until now, Ping Xiangxi still doesn't believe that it is related to the An family.  It's just talking and rushing, and what's driven out is Wen Wan making a fuss out of a molehill.

    But when I heard my mother¡¯s worries, I was still a little ashamed. However, I still said that I was an official of the imperial court, and I understood that the King of Zhou would not do anything to me.

    The King of Zhou originally wanted to humiliate Ping Xiangxi, but seeing Wen Wan's earnest words and sadness, he asked him to be noble and give peace to Ping Xiangxi.  Otherwise, it will be difficult for her to live peacefully in the Taira family from now on.  He said that if something happened, it would be entirely her daughter's fault.  Even if he wanted to vent his anger, he looked at Wen Wan's sad and plaintive letter pleading for mercy.  It's not good for him to overdo it.  Seeing the beautiful maid coming up to pay homage to the people below, she suddenly became interested.

    The next day, after Ping Xiangxi was ridiculed again, he brought back a pretty beauty.  With the second master's lessons learned, this time, it almost caused another thunderstorm.

    The woman met several gentlemen and wished them good luck.  As soon as he opened his mouth, it was like a lark singing, so sweet and sweet that the bones of several elders went soft.  Look at that woman again.  The long moon-shy flower, the graceful figure, the small waist that can be held in one hand, and the three-inch golden lotus that can be held in one hand.  Truly, the best among women.  People's souls will be taken away.  I heard that he can also write poems, songs and poems, and his handwriting is good.

    Ping Xiangxi saw this posture and said hurriedly.  This woman was given by the King of Zhou, and the woman herself explained that it was the King of Zhou who gave her to Master Ping.  Only then did everyone feel relieved.  But why is the always arrogant King Zhou so easy to talk to?

    When the Duke of the country knew that Wen Wan had written to the King of Zhou.  I wonder if I misjudged Wenwan. In fact, this is pure filial piety.  poor child.

    The eldest lady smiled bitterly and said, "Master, this is what happened. The princess not only suppressed the news and refused to explain to outsiders what was going on. She also wrote a letter to the King of Zhou to plead for mercy. Such a strong contrast, even you said this  It¡¯s a rare act of filial piety from a child. If this thing spreads, think about the consequences. That child is so thoughtful, I really can¡¯t guess why.¡±

    The Duke of Guo has no answer. "This matter should not be spread."

    The Duke¡¯s wife shook her head.  Although she has intentions about this matter, she is unable to change it. "It doesn't matter if those people spread the word. As long as the people who should know know, they will never say that she is disobedient and unfilial. Wenwan is a child. She is very smart and treats her fifth brother.  , and there is no father-daughter relationship at all. It¡¯s good for the house to be willing to suffer the consequences of being dumb. But I don¡¯t know what she wants.¡±

    After hearing this, the Duke of Guo explained, "Could it be that she wants to use this matter to blackmail us and make her move out."

    The Duke's wife shook her head, "It's impossible. If she wants to move out, she should make a big deal out of it. Let the emperor make the decision for her. But she said nothing or did nothing. She also allowed others to spread the rumors.  I also suppressed the truth. I might say a few words of kindness to others, but she? It¡¯s impossible. I can¡¯t see through that child. I don¡¯t know what she is thinking.¡±

    The husband and wife talked for a long time, but they didn't have a clue. They just waited and waited.

    The beauty sent by the King of Zhou was called Bai Ling. When she arrived in the fifth room, she bowed to Mrs. An and was promoted to her aunt.  In these years, Ping Xiangxi had only one wife, An, and his two wives were as invisible as strangers.  This has always been what Anshi is most proud of, but he didn't expect it to be broken today.

    Looking at the woman kneeling in front of him, his eyes were about to burst out with fire.  When An made things difficult for him, he looked at Ping Xiangxi pitifully.  Needless to say, it is naturally towards his new love.  I hate An's teeth so much that I wish I could beat him to death with a spanner.

    The governor of the capital did not dare to take on this matter, but the censor did not let it go.  They usually use a magnifying glass to show Ding's big things, let alone such a big thing as whipping his stepmother.  Such a cruel thing that kills the whole world, just because of identityNo one cares about your valuables and must not tolerate them.

    Several censors impeached Wen Wan, and one of them impeached the most harshly.  It is said that he is a gentle and pampered servant, and he can do whatever he wants with the golden whip given by the emperor. He beat the guests of the Ping family before.  Now he beats his stepmother, which is simply unjust.  The most disgusting thing is that he beat his mother with the golden whip given by the emperor, which ruined the emperor's reputation. Such an extremely bad and unfilial thing must be severely punished, and this evil trend must not be encouraged.  The censor asked the emperor to take back the golden whip given by the emperor, and then punish Princess Wenwan to correct the law.

    Yanghe Hall

    The emperor read the brochure and sent Doctor Wang over.  He knew that Dr. Wang had gone to see Wen Wan a few days ago.

    Doctor Wang knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the princess was very angry that day. Although I don't know what it was. But I also spent some time with the princess. She is a tolerant and optimistic person. If  It¡¯s not a trivial matter that makes people faint three times.¡±

    When the emperor heard about Wen Wan beating Anshi, he also frowned and was very unhappy.  After this news came out, not only was Wen Wan's reputation bad, but his reputation was also affected.  But when the emperor thought about it, he felt something was wrong. Although he had not had much contact with Wen Wan, he was not stingy or narrow-minded by his behavior.  It is impossible to beat the concubine for no reason.  Wenwan is not a coquettish and overbearing person, a ruthless and ruthless person who doesn't care about right and wrong.  There must be something fishy about this matter.  After asking Doctor Wang, he found out that Wen Wan was so angry that she fainted.  He must have asked someone to check it carefully at the moment. Once checked, the emperor was so angry that he flew into a rage.

    After doing such a shameful thing, he actually dared to ask his granddaughter to commit suicide as a filial piety.  This poor kid still won't let anyone tell the truth.  This beast is simply infuriating to both humans and gods.  Fortunately, Wenwan not only prevented people from spreading this matter, but also wrote a letter to the third child to plead for mercy.  If the emperor didn't have a plan in his heart, he would have wanted to kidnap Ping Xiangxi and let him go home to eat his mother's meal.  A bear like this is worthy of being an official.

    Fortunately, I only hold academic positions in Qingshui Yamen, otherwise.  It is not allowed to cause harm to the court or the people.  However, he was still angry and was demoted three levels in a row.

    Ping Xiangxi didn't know that because of this incident, not only was he dismissed from his official position, he was dismissed from his post.  His official career will always stop at this level, and he can no longer go up.  Now that he had been demoted, he was so angry that he lost his temper at home.  But I want to find trouble for Wen Wan again.  But he didn't dare.  This daughter is not as easy to talk to as the first wife.

    The emperor summoned the censor who had been most impeached by Shang Zhezi, threw the zhezi back to him, and sneered: "Mother? A concubine who has no place on the stage. How dare you think of her as the mother of my granddaughter? Your books are all  Did you read it into the dog¡¯s belly?¡±

    The censor was horrified, kneeling on the ground but unyielding.  Prepare to die as a remonstrance: "Your Majesty, even if you kill me today, I will still report it. Even if the An family is Ping Xiangxi's concubine, it is against filial piety for a woman to beat her concubine. Your Majesty, this trend cannot last forever, otherwise  , If people all over the world follow the same example, it will mess up the atmosphere and collapse in an ant nest. Don't be careless."

    The emperor was furious and scolded: "You didn't ask the reason or investigate the origin of the matter. How dare you make a fuss like this again. Wen Wan is my dear princess, and that beast stole the calligraphy written by King Zhou as a gift to Wen Wan. Return it.  Dare to let the concubine tell Wen Wan to die to fulfill her filial piety. Shi Guozhu, you said that Wen Wan can't be whipped, or do you think that my granddaughter's life is cheap, so she should die to fulfill her filial piety.  . If I hadn't seen him as Wen Wan's biological father, I wouldn't have killed them just because of this. You are the censor, and your duty is to find out everything, not to let you abuse your power.  The so-called stuff.¡±

    "Your Majesty, I have failed to investigate, please forgive me." Censor Shi Guozhu's head buzzed, and after hearing the emperor's words, he knew that he had committed the crime of neglecting to investigate.  Rumor has it that Wen Wan beat her stepmother, but why she was beaten has not.  He sent someone to inquire and got the news that he had a dispute with his stepmother and was still worried about the previous murder.

    Wen Wan¡¯s side was strictly silenced by the servants, but it was even less possible for the An family¡¯s side to speak out.  The news that Mr. Guo and his wife got was to drive out the news with words.  I don't want this matter to be spread.  There was no news from King Zhou.  Therefore, few people really know the reason why they took action.  People only see Wen Wan beating people, and this is what people talk about.

    The emperor lost his temper and looked at Yu Li who looked ashamed but still stubborn and unwilling to give up.  Sighing: "I know you have bad intentions, and it is wrong to beat your concubine gently. However, that child is only seven years old this year. It is inevitable to be impulsive when encountering such a bad thing. It is not as serious as you said.  Well, in order not to tarnish the reputation of that beast, Wen Wan not only concealed her stealing the copybook, but also strictly ordered her subordinates not to tell it. She also begged the third child to let such a pure and filial child go.  Who can say that she is disobedient and unfilial???So I can't blame you entirely for this matter, go on.  "

    Shi Yushi left the Yanghe Hall in embarrassment. After hearing the emperor's words, he felt even more ashamed.

    And the emperor violently attacked Anlehou again; he scolded the Duke of the country again and demoted Ping Xiangxi to the Three Extremes.  As for the culprit An, he was ordered to slap his mouth twenty times.

    As soon as the emperor's punishment came over, An was stunned on the spot.  With the emperor, Wen Wan will no longer be so crazy and will not take her seriously.  The eunuch from the palace was not merciless at all. He beat her until the skin and flesh burst open and blood flew everywhere.

    After receiving this punishment, I raised him for more than half a year, and for the next two years, I didn¡¯t dare to go out to socialize.

    Of course, it is impossible for the emperor not to punish Wen Wan at all, just to worry about the impact.  After giving a verbal instruction, Wen Wan was ordered to copy the female precepts three hundred times, a volume of Buddhist scriptures, and to think about it for a month while facing the wall.  But they didn't say when they would finish copying and turn it in.

    The emperor¡¯s actions left people confused.  However, the emperor's words did not recognize An's mother as a gentle mother, but as a concubine.  Wen Wan later learned that although Gu¡¯s mother¡¯s words that day were well-founded.  But generally speaking, after the princess dies, no one will take care of the matter even if the prince-in-law marries a step-mother.  But An was unlucky and was caught by the emperor.  The emperor's words carry a lot of weight.  Only then did everyone suddenly realize why Wen Wan could be so arrogant. It was because the emperor was backing her.

    Wen Wan asked Xia Ying strangely, "Why didn't the emperor's grandpa give her a piece of white silk or a glass of poisonous wine? Just handle it with care."

    Xia Ying shook her head and said, "The emperor will not order to kill An. If the emperor wants to kill her, the princess will kill her right away. She didn't kill her before, and she won't kill her now."

    There is confusion on Wenwan¡¯s face.

    Xia Ying explained, "It's not that the emperor doesn't kill her, the emperor can kill her without a burial place with just one word. But now, the emperor doesn't kill her, he just leaves her to you. She is your mother-killing enemy, leave her to you."  It's best for you to handle it. If the princess wants to take action, I can let her commit suicide and ensure that no one will notice. "

    Wen Wan glanced at her. This woman said that killing people was like chopping cabbage and tofu. She must have been a murderous demon in the past.  I wrote a few words, "Don't worry about her, let her live well. It would be better to live until she is seventy or eighty."

    Xia Ying frowned. She really couldn't figure out why her master always slipped up at critical moments.  The wet nurse was like this last time, and this time she was like this again.  Such a good opportunity, why not take advantage of it!

    A thought flashed through Xia Ying's mind. Could it be that the princess was just like Princess Fuhui, a kind and kind person?  After thinking for a long time, I couldn't come up with a clue.

    The imperial edict issued by the emperor was circulated within a long time. Naturally, people did not dare to discuss the emperor's behavior of protecting shortcomings.  But when everyone saw the emperor's punishment for Wen Wan, they saw the secret.  Logically speaking, they should be punished by copying the Sutra of Filial Piety, but they were punished by copying the Women's Precepts and Buddhist Sutras.  Forcing women to copy precepts violates chastity, tranquility, and decency. Forcing people to copy Buddhist scriptures is for impetuous people to calm their minds, usually to hone their character.

    In addition, Ping Xiangxi was demoted to three levels, and An was only lightly punished.  But keen people have guessed that there must be something important in between.  Otherwise, why did the emperor not only not punish Wen Wan, but also vent his anger on Wen Wan's behalf.  Many people went to inquire for information, but they could not find out why they beat people.  I was wondering, but since I couldn't get any information, I gave up.  (To be continued)
