Chapter 1967
Chapter 1967
"You said Wang Yucheng's memorial was pressed by the crown prince?" Maybe it was because of the cold spring, Emperor Liu's voice always seemed gloomy, which made people feel a sense of scalp numbness.
Inside the Chuigong Palace, it was even more empty than usual, and the maids were specially screened away, and they waited on them from a distance, including the eunuch Yan Tuo, who could only stand a few feet away and listen hard.
Only the envoy of the imperial city, Wang Jien, was waiting in front of the imperial court. He said that he had a secret report, but he never thought that Emperor Liu would be surprised by opening his mouth.But Wang Jien, who was always noticing Emperor Liu's reaction, felt his heart skip a beat. He always felt that Emperor Liu's reaction was somewhat strange, and there was more terror than he expected.
But the arrow that leaves the string is hard to retract, and there is no room for retraction after opening this mouth.Regardless of thinking about it, he immediately replied: "It's absolutely true when I return to the official's house. I have investigated the time when Wang Yucheng's first memorial was delivered to the Zhengshitang. The records show that when it was delivered, the crown prince and Prime Minister Zhao were both present."
"The crown prince and Zhao Pu are both present, what does this mean?" Emperor Liu said in a flat tone.
"At that time, the crown prince and Mr. Zhao Xianggong discussed this memorial, and someone heard it with their own ears." Wang Jien said.
However, as soon as these words were spoken, Emperor Liu asked sternly: "Who? How did you find out the inside information about the official affairs of the Zhengshitang? And who revealed these details to you?"
Faced with the old emperor's questioning, Wang Ji'en hesitated a bit, saying: "It's just a small insinuation, and I found it out of inquiry."
"Are you bullying me so stupidly?" Emperor Liu no longer suppressed his anger, and scolded, "Spoofing on the sidelines, you even figured out the time of the memorial? How dare you lie in front of me?"
"Calm down the anger of the officials! I don't dare!" Seeing Emperor Liu's outburst, Wang Jien didn't dare to cover up any more, and sold him decisively: "Back to the official house, it was Chen Xiangyu from Zhongshushe who revealed this to the little one. "
After getting the answer, Emperor Liu suddenly restrained all his aura, and just stared at Wang Jien coldly. However, after a brief silence, Emperor Liu broke out violently, picked up a paperweight on the table, threw it at His Highness, and smashed it precisely. To Wang Jien's head.
Don't look at Emperor Liu, who is old, he came here with a sudden blow, and the castration was so fierce that he smashed Wang Jien's head on the spot and broke his blood. Under the pain, he wanted to scream, but Wang Jien held back and turned Make a muffled groan and swallow.
His head was still in a daze, and the vision of his left eye was covered by a streak of red. He wanted to explain something, but Emperor Liu stood up and yelled at Wang Ji'en angrily: "You are so brave, you even made friends with courtiers, and buried your eyeliner in the political affairs hall!" up!
A secret report, you have involved the current crown prince and the prime minister, what do you want to explain, and what is your intention?
I have already reminded you to restrain yourself, restrain yourself!To this day, you are still domineering outside, and you still don’t know how to measure it. I think that I have been extremely tolerant in the name of serving you for decades. You still don’t know yourself, and you dare to gossip in front of me.”
Emperor Liu's reprimand made Wang Ji'en extremely terrified. He never expected such a reaction, and he ignored the other things, regardless of the bleeding wound. He immediately kowtowed and pounded the floor so loud .
"The little one is guilty!
"The little one knew it was wrong!"
"I hope the officials will forgive me!"
"Never dare to do it again!"
"."
Seeing that Wang Jien was dizzy and unconscious, Emperor Liu interrupted him just now, his tone still cold: "Enough! Do you still want to dirty the Great Hall?"
Kowtowing three more times in a habitual way, Wang Jien just stopped, but at this moment he was already dizzy, but instinctively continued to apologize to Emperor Liu: "Thank you, the official family! Thank you, the official family!"
"Zhang Dejun! Let me remind you again, my tolerance is limited, and our relationship between master and servant also has depths, so don't make mistakes!" Looking at Wang Jien at his feet indifferently, Emperor Liu said with a cold face.
"Yes! Yes! I must remember the official's lesson and never repeat it again!" No matter what Emperor Liu said at this time, Wang Jien could only react in this way.
In the past, when Emperor Liu continued to call him "Zhang Dejun", Wang Jien still felt a little awkward, but now he feels fortunate. This can be seen as a vague sign of Emperor Liu's nostalgia.
I have to say that Wang Jien was really scared. He has served Emperor Liu for decades, and it is not that he has never been scolded, but the reprimand he received today was the most severe in history, and even Wang Jien felt his neck was cold .
"Get lost!" Emperor Liu reacted as if I didn't want to talk to you any more.
"Retire, little one! Retire, little one!" Wang Ji'en, as if he had been pardoned, didn't miss it at all, and hurriedly backed away, clutching his head, as if escaping from the gate of hell.
A few feet away, Yan Tuo looked at the distressed appearance of this old enemy, and his heart felt dark, as if a warm spring light had entered his heart.What secret report?I thought I could invite credit and favor, but things backfired.
However, Wang Jien, an old dog, what exactly caused the officials to be furious?Yan Tuo thought to himself, it was far away and I couldn't hear it clearly, but it seems to be related to the prince and Zhao Xiang?
While speculating, Yan Tuo did not forget to arrange for someone to clean up the filthy blood stains left by Wang Jien, while he carefully approached and said attentively: "Calm down the anger of the officials, don't let the old slave's anger ruin your body! "
Hearing this, Emperor Liu suddenly turned his head and stared straight at Yan Tuo, Yan Tuo was also taken aback, in his opinion, the old emperor's eyes seemed to be glowing with a few scarlet rays of light.
"Are you eavesdropping?" Emperor Liu said in a deep voice.
Yantuo's legs were so weak that he fell to his knees and almost swore: "I don't dare, I just see the official's anger and worry about the official's body!"
"When did I get angry?" Emperor Liu asked back.
This is a bit unreasonable, but he is the emperor, can Yan Tuo still argue? There was cold sweat dripping down his forehead, and he knelt there speechless.
Of course Emperor Liu was angry, but he couldn't explain why. Wang Jien's "bravery"?I'm afraid not necessarily.The more important reason is that it is still in the matter reported by Wang Jien, and it is very difficult for Wang Jien to make false reports. This eunuch is very powerful and courageous, but he has not yet dared to do such things. To the point of deceiving Emperor Liu.
Even if Wang Jien wanted to be Su Wen, the old emperor might not be Emperor Wu.And the more intense Emperor Liu's reaction was, the more it meant that he believed his report in his heart.It's just that Emperor Liu didn't want to delve into this matter.
Otherwise, once you get to the bottom of it, Zhao Pu will be suspected of deceiving the emperor first. He was used by Emperor Liu to change the overall situation of tax control. Now that the national tax reform is advancing and it has reached the stage of real results, the upper echelons of the court must not make trouble.
If the prince is pulled out again, the matter will be even worse, and the country will be shaken!
However, with Emperor Liu being suspicious now, how could he not think about why Zhao Pu had to admit the matter on behalf of the prince, and how could he not worry about the threat brought by the indistinct relationship between the prime minister and the prince?
With Zhao Pu's frank state now, Emperor Liu did not believe that he would pose any threat to him, and even made some unsafe actions at the end of the day, but when the prince was involved, Emperor Liu had to take it seriously.
With a lot of doubts in my heart, and unwilling to make a big move, under the interweaving of multiple thoughts, the negative emotions that erupted naturally only Wang Jien, the informer, could bear it...
