The emperor said to King Zhao calmly, but without a trace of emotion: "Unkind, unjust, unfaithful and unfilial, drag him down and imprison him in the clan's mansion." Who knows what was in the emperor's heart when he said these words? But it was bleeding.
A noble prince became a prisoner in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, King Zhao saw that the emperor's eyes were still calm, and a deep despair and chill suddenly surged in his heart, spreading to the top of his head and spreading all over his body.
Before the guards were about to drag him out, King Zhao threw himself at the emperor's feet, but was stopped by Eunuch Wen: "Father, that mute is a monster. Father, that mute is a monster. You believe me, I am here for you." Eliminate harm from the world. Father, I want to kill this monster for your sake and for the sake of the country!"
"Shut up!" The emperor couldn't bear it any longer, shouted angrily, interrupted him, and said coldly: "I have wasted more than thirty years teaching you, and you actually believed the nonsense of a demon monk, just for the sake of inviting a monk. Yaoyan, I really thought that I was the master of Jiuwu. I believe that Wen Wan defeated you and ruined your destiny. I tell you that Wen Wan was able to wake up safely this time and was not killed by your methods. The Buddha of Jue Temple sat down to protect the Dharma, and Wen Wan survived this disaster under the protection of the Buddha."
King Zhao refused to believe it: "It's impossible, I don't believe it. This is absolutely impossible, Father, that's an evildoer, that's an evildoer. The Buddha wants to get rid of evildoers. How could he save him?"
The emperor didn't say anything more. Eunuch Wen looked at the emperor's appearance, his hands trembling: "Come on, help the prince out quickly. Help the prince out quickly."
After everyone had gone out, Eunuch Wen turned around and saw the emperor was about to stand up, so he quickly stepped forward to help him. But don't want to. Before he could touch anyone, the emperor suddenly fell forward without warning.
King Zheng, who was rushing over, heard a shrill cry from Eunuch Wen in the Yanghe Hall. He rushed in quickly. Seeing the emperor lying on the ground, he quickly ran up, helped the emperor up, put him on the couch, and shouted: "Imperial physician, imperial physician."
Wen Wan was writing the word Jing when she got the news that the emperor had fainted. I was so scared that my mind went blank and I couldn't care about anything. You have to run to Yanghe Hall. It was Xia Yao who had quick eyes and quick hands and stopped her: "Princess, you are still seriously injured and wake up now. If you run out like this, let others think."
Wenwan doesn¡¯t care about that much. Meeting the emperor is the most important thing now. For other things, think of ways to solve them. Xia Yao had no choice but to raise the sedan chair to drive Wen Wan away. All the imperial doctors knew that Wen Wan was not sick, and there was nothing taboo about exposing the emperor to illness.
Wen Wan entered the palace and saw that the emperor was still in a coma. The little bit of dissatisfaction I had before, I don¡¯t know where to throw it.
The emperor didn¡¯t wake up until midnight. Opening his eyes, he looked at Prince Zheng and Wen Wan who were guarding the bed. It didn¡¯t feel desolate at all.
King Zheng has not waited for Wen Wan to speak. First he asked: "Father, the imperial doctor said that your anger is attacking your heart." Father, you must not get angry again. "
Eunuch Wen brought the porridge, and Prince Zheng took it. Wen Wan just held the emperor's hand and didn't let go: "Grandpa Emperor, you scared me to death."
The emperor was resting half on the soft mattress. Although his face was still pale and tired, it was because he had Prince Zheng and Wen Wan by his side. There is warmth in my heart no matter what.
And Wen Wan was rescued by the Buddha's light and the profound Dharma of Master Enlightenment. The good news immediately spread throughout the capital. Even the door of Huangjue Temple was squeezed through. Instead, the fact that King Zhao was imprisoned became the second news.
Bai Shinian was really impatient to sleep on the mountain bed, so he asked the guards to help him to the yard. Sitting under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. August sunshine. Very violent. There is a burning sensation when it shines on the body.
The chief steward came over and reported everything that happened in the capital to Bai Shinian. Bai Shinian heard that Princess Wenwan was cured by Master Awakening.
Bai Shinian suddenly stood up. A woman who can make the Buddha shine (rumor). He is a person who is favored by God, and only such a person can stop the evil spirit in him. Bai Shinian suddenly trembled all over, no, no, Qing'er would not be the gentle princess. Impossible, it must be his wild imagination. But if Qing'er is really the Wenwan Princess, then, then they, no, if Qing'er is really the Wenwan Princess, at least Qing'er is still alive. No, he must see, must see Princess Wenwan again. He must confirm whether Qing'er is Princess Wenwan.
After getting the news, the old lady came over and saw Bai Shinian basking in the sun in the middle of the yard, his face extremely pale. He scolded all the guards and sent them back to the house.
Bai Shinian said nothing. I have been thinking about the possibility of this thing, yes, now that I think about it, it is indeed weird. Princess Wenwan was seriously injured, but Qing'er was intact. Could it be said that Qing'er's intelligence could be compared to Princess Wenwan? Abandoning the cause of muteness, he must?Only by meeting Princess Wenwan can the doubts in my heart be released.
Concubine Xian, who had been under house arrest in Xianfu Palace, heard her son say that he was imprisoned in the clan mansion. He vomited blood on the spot and fell into coma.
After King Zhao was imprisoned, the bribery and corruption cases on South Korea's pillars also took shape. The emperor also took advantage of this opportunity and dug out many pitfalls. Eight officials in the capital were found to have colluded with Xun Xun, and even the local government found out that more than ten officials were involved in Xun Xun's corruption case. implicated. Even King Zhao's father-in-law, Zhong Qianzhi, was implicated.
This time the cleaning was much sharper than the last time. The emperor dealt with this incident vigorously and resolutely. He was not lenient at all and attacked everything violently. Those who were implicated in the crime and who had committed serious crimes were all put in prison and all the adult men in the family were beheaded. For minor crimes, he was exiled thousands of miles away and his family members were all sold. Those in lower positions who were less implicated were all dismissed from office. Of course, a jail sentence could not avoid them.
Although Zhong Qianzhi is implicated, his culpability is much smaller. And with Su Xiang's mediation and help, Su Xiang is still King Zheng's uncle, so he will still be given such a small favor.
Finally, Zhong Qianzhi was dismissed from office. Nine-tenths of the Zhong family were confiscated, and all their descendants were dismissed from office. Zhong Qianzhi looked calm and returned to his hometown with his family.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of others, even Wen Wan who has experienced several life and death, is frightened. Last time it was generally not as good as women and children. There were a few cases of ministerial crimes last year, but most of them were dismissed from office, and some were sent to the frontiers. After confiscating their property, those with lighter crimes also returned part of their property to the families of these guilty ministers, and no crime was committed against their family members. This time, even the newborn children were spared.
"Do you think grandpa is cruel and ruthless?" The emperor looked at Wen Wan and only heard that he ordered to kill people and confiscate the whole family as slaves. Wen Wan lowered her head.
Wen Wan shook her head and said that her grandfather had a reason for doing this, but he just didn¡¯t understand why. Those old people, women, children, and children are all innocent. Even after experiencing many lives and deaths, Wen Wan's heart has hardened, but seeing so many innocent old people and children implicated, Wen Wan still can't bear it. If you commit a crime in modern times, it is not as bad as your family. Not to mention the elderly and ignorant children.
"Silly boy, how could those old people, women, and children be innocent? They have enjoyed the glory and wealth brought to them, and they must pay the price if the building is dumped. Otherwise, you think those people who are in high positions are greedy. So much money, harming so many people, for what reason? Although they themselves are very greedy, but at the same time, it also benefits their families, so they are not innocent. "After enjoying the wealth and glory it brought, it was necessary to be implicated when the building collapsed." The emperor explained.
Wen Wan knows that this is a typical example of "sharing blessings and sharing hardships". But, it's really cruel. In modern times, even if it is corruption, killing, selling goods and selling drugs, it only involves the relevant personnel and the accomplices who are imprisoned, and children and the elderly will not be implicated.
"Those ignorant children are innocent." People who come from a legal society cannot completely ignore life, and there are still so many innocent children.
"Wen Wan, being kind-hearted is of no use when dealing with things. The so-called state-owned laws and family rules, everything should be done in accordance with the regulations." The emperor did not become merciful because of Wen Wan's words.
Wen Wan didn¡¯t speak for a long time. No plea either. This was the emperor's decision, and she could only listen and not refute it.
"Wen Wan, you have to remember that if you are kind-hearted, someone will remember your good deeds. In this world, everyone only remembers grudges and not good deeds. From now on, you must not be kind to others, otherwise, you will easily suffer big losses." The emperor warned Look gentle.
Wenwan accepted it humbly, saying that she just acted according to her heart and did not need others to remember her. But after such a big purge, King Zhao's power was completely eliminated. Wen Wan can finally let go of her hanging heart.
The emperor vigorously purged King Zhao¡¯s forces. But King Zheng did not take this opportunity to expand his power. Still working diligently and conscientiously. No matter big or small, he will make decisions from the emperor and is not good at making his own decisions. The attitude is very correct. There is no arrogance or pride of a winner.
Wen Wan thought that the emperor would delegate power, but she didn't know that the emperor tightened the power even more. She didn't dare to say another word except sighing in her heart.
Wen Wan admires Uncle Zheng¡¯s behavior very much. Anyway, the world will belong to Uncle Zheng in the future. If he expands his power now, it will make the emperor's grandfather feel uncomfortable. Why bother.
In fact, according to Wen Wan's idea, if they didn't get the throne, they would all die, and she would have to persuade King Zheng not to fight for that broken chair. Even when we grabbed the broken chair, we had to work very hard. Once done, you will be a wise king. Throughout history?Thousands of years up and down, there have been a few wise kings, but how difficult is it to be a wise king? There are plenty of foolish kings. (To be continued)
