Traveling through the Legend of Zhen Huan: My Queen, please love me!
Chapter 200: Punishment or Not
Longkodo in the Forbidden City could no longer sit still. The overwhelming number of memorials made him feel a little breathless.
After receiving a letter, Tong Jia Yunrong learned about the matter and tried her best to investigate.
They were already in the palace, so this was not a difficult matter. Tong Jia and Yunrong knew very well whether Yinzhen was there or not.
After all, Fang Chunyi has always been with Yinzhen. Given Yinzhen's level of being a master at keeping things balanced, it is impossible for him not to invite her to have dinner with him for these few days.
Tong Jia Yunrong's gaze undoubtedly fell on Fu Rujin.
Liu Hua took these filthy water control and shipbuilding maps in his hands, and indeed there were only a few angels with wings spread out and no clothes on their upper bodies.
To be honest, it's not even on the same level as pornographic pictures.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, these drawings are made of genuine material."
Tong Jia Yunrong immediately retorted, "When the Emperor was selecting concubines, Yi Changzai was not very rude and left the Chuxiu Palace to look at the underground waterways of the capital.
The Emperor should still remember this incident, right? My Great Qing is the Celestial Empire, and I don't know how many of these blueprints there are, yet you insist on looking at these barbarians'.
Especially since she is a concubine in the palace, not some other unorthodox person. If this example gets out, what will the people of the world do?
Yinzhen was a conservative after all, and from the perspective of the Qing Dynasty, some of these pictures were indeed indecent.
"Let's burn them all."
This light sentence made Fu Rujin's hatred even stronger.
What Yinzhen wanted in his mind was to throw away all those water control and shipbuilding maps to avoid causing trouble to the inner court.
It would be bad for the reputation of a concubine who has no morals and writes obscene books to spread.
But Fu Rujin firmly disagreed. She tried her best to argue, "These drawings are important things related to the country's livelihood. They must not be thrown away casually!"
Liu Hua only saw Tong Jia Yunrong curling her lips and smiling triumphantly. Seeing this, she immediately said loudly:
"Concubine Yi has contracted an epidemic and is now unconscious. Your Majesty and Concubine Chang please give her some time to recover."
Tong Jia Yunrong was already very wary of Fu Rujin, and as long as that face still existed, she would never let her guard down.
"Your Majesty, Yi Changzai has dared to discuss state affairs and interfere in government affairs. This violates the rules of our ancestors and must not be allowed to go unpunished."
Liu Hua didn't want Fu Rujin to be ruined now. First, he didn't want her to die. Second, Zhen Huan hadn't returned to the palace yet. She could delay Tong Jia Yunrong in the palace and prevent her from causing trouble for him.
"I don't know how Concubine Chang saw that Yi Chang was making irresponsible remarks about state affairs.
What does this water control map and bridge construction map have to do with government affairs?
Tong Jia Yunrong was too anxious and accidentally let the cat out of the bag. She secretly felt guilty about her own carelessness and immediately made amends:
"Women should observe female virtues and be skilled in needlework. I taught Yi Chang a lesson last time. If she dares to do it again, she will be violating female virtues.
As for women's work, I have never seen her do it. So, only her appearance can be mentioned.
Keeping these foreign blueprints every day will ruin my character. If I pass them on to the emperor, won’t that mean I will lose the throne of the Qing Dynasty?
Liu Hua just felt disgusted. All principles had to submit to the three obediences and four virtues that Tong Jia Yunrong talked about.
"But Your Majesty, you said this was a good solution, and you yourself said the bridge we built was not good. You saw it yourself, and you..."
Seeing that Fu Rujin was about to say everything she should and shouldn't say, Liu Hua hurried forward and asked Dongli to cover her mouth.
Tong Jia Yunrong thought to herself, "As expected, it's her."
Many of them had cold eyes and sneered.
"When I first entered the palace, I was favored by her. After going to the south of the Yangtze River, I caused trouble for my father everywhere." In Tong Jia Yunrong's heart, Fu Rujin was already on the death list.
At this moment, Yinzhen was standing in the center of everyone's attention, with countless pairs of eyes staring at him.
Under such circumstances, he knew very well that he must not easily make public the fact that he had traveled incognito.
Because once this matter is exposed, it will not only cause an uproar, but may also give him a reputation of being idle and greedy for pleasure.
Which emperor would not say that he was not doing his job if he went on a secret visit on behalf of a concubine?
Although the anger in his heart was burning, Yinzhen had to suppress it forcibly.
His face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and his cold eyes swept over everyone present.
Especially after staying for a while on Liu Hua and Tong Jia Yunrong, Yinzhen knew that there were many doubts in this matter. He still didn't know how these pictures were found.
But it no longer matters. Asking further will only hurt the emperor's reputation.
In the end, under the constraints of ancestral laws, he reluctantly ordered the punishment of Fu Rujin.
"Yi Chang stayed at the Fu family, behaved indecently, collected obscene things, and did not repent, repeating the same offenses time and again.
The items will be confiscated, and he will be fined six months' salary and confined for one month."
Tong Jia Yunrong was dissatisfied with the punishment. According to the ancestral rules of the Qing Dynasty, people like Fu Ruyin should be dragged out and caned.
Unfortunately, Tong Jia Yunrong was secretly looking at Fu Rujin's face.
I muttered to myself: "This is really difficult."
Upon hearing this verdict, Fu Ruyin, who was standing by, widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
She could never have imagined that Yinzhen would make such a severe punishment decision.
This was simply destroying the bridge after crossing it. She opened her mouth and tried to defend herself, but she swallowed the words back.
Because she understood that saying anything more at this point would be of no use and might even make things worse.
Yinzhen treated her to a secret visit because he saw that she was a genuine Jiangnan person who was familiar with local customs and habits and could read water.
Fu Rujin couldn't help but mock herself in her heart, wondering why she had fallen in love with this old man before.
But it didn't matter much, after all, her real treasured book was still at the bottom of the box.
After Fu Rujin's matter was over, Yinzhen suddenly remembered that after joining the group, he could only ask Li Qihe to accompany him.
She couldn't help feeling bored, so she retreated and pretended to be innocent.
Glancing at An Lingrong, she saw her face becoming increasingly beautiful. Just as she was becoming more interested, she heard a rough, hoarse voice: "Okay, let's not talk about these things. I also want to congratulate Concubine Chang. The Emperor has agreed to perform the ritual, but I don't know how many days it will take."
Yinzhen said casually, "Three days, we can't afford any more delay."
Tong Jia Yunrong suspected in her heart that Liu Hua was up to something, but when the truth came out, she could only thank Yinzhen and Liu Hua.
"I thank the Emperor and Concubine Qian for your consideration."
Yinzhen stroked her newly grown beard and said with a smug smile, "I paid eight hundred taels of silver, but it's worth it if you're happy.
I just hope that your children, Chun Changzai and Huipin's children will be born safely and without any mishaps."
