and total

As soon as Wei Liao returned to the palace, he heard that the Dali Temple minister was waiting to see him.Wei Liao can more or less guess what he is doing for rest today, probably to express his dissatisfaction with Yun Heng's case.

Zhou Shuo is not stupid. He has been immersed in officialdom for many years. Whether he likes it or not, he should know the doubts and considerations in this case. endlessly.

This person is actually not annoying, otherwise Wei Liao would not have put him in front of his eyes and watched him every day.It's just that Wei Liao didn't have much energy to deal with him today, in fact, he just wanted to eat something and have a good rest, so he called people in first and gave him food.

For ordinary courtiers, giving food is actually a torture.You can't sit well, you can't eat well, you have to thank you first when you say something, and you don't know how to eat. If the emperor's attention and intimacy are not exciting enough, you might as well eat at home.

The biggest difference between Wei Liao and the previous emperors was that he was too arbitrary. It was not uncommon for the courtiers who came to play with him to accompany him to eat, so those who were rewarded would not be too trembling, so as not to spoil his interest.

Even so, Zhou Shuo's expression when he heard the word "gifting food" can be counted as one of the few offenders.

It was true that the meal time had passed, but Wei Liao was also really hungry. He ignored Zhou Shuo's disapproving face, picked up the ebony chopsticks, paused, called for silver, and started eating.

His hands were so weak that he couldn't even hold the ebony chopsticks.Wei Liao sighed secretly, thinking that he really got used to Fu Xiru, and felt a little secretly proud that this weak appearance couldn't make him angry now, Zhou Shuo's face was full of "I have something to say! I want to remonstrate to death!" "It's not so obtrusive anymore.

Now the Tai Tuo who has retired to his hometown for the elderly is a great Confucianist in the world, with peaches and plums all over the world, Zhou Shuo is one of them, he obeys the words of the respected master, and deeply believes it, including those who judged Wei Liao, so after the Tai Tuo left the court, he served as a criminal for the rest of his life Zhou Shuo, the chief official, wanted to be transferred to the Yushitai several times - impeachment and direct remonstrance, all officials and emperors can scold, Wei Liao thought about his own ears, and refused to agree no matter what, so Zhou Shuo lost his temper with him .

An upright old man is not cute when he loses his temper. He has neither pink fist nor coquettishness. It really hurts the eyes. Wei Liao knew that he couldn't be appeased, so he simply let him go. Anyway, he is the emperor, he has the final say , Zhou Shuo just had dissatisfaction written all over his face.

In fact, after Wei Liao came to the throne, his actions were not considered absurd and stupid, but he was ruthless and reckless about the consequences. No matter how he looked at it, he was not a peaceful and wise king, and his reputation was not good enough.The important ministers around him are actually quite tolerant, and those who have gone through the storm, this little setback is nothing.

After the meal, Zhou Shuo raised his concerns, but it was not anything that Wei Liao expected: "The case of the governor of Jiangzhou has come to light."

Wei Liao couldn't hide his surprise, he leaned back and raised his eyebrows: "What's the result?"

Zhou Shuo's face was like a coffin board: "All of Yun Heng's confessions are true, and there are all witnesses and material evidence. According to the law, it should..."

"I want him to be safe and go back to Youzhou," Wei Liao suddenly leaned forward and stared at him, interrupting Zhou Shuo's unfinished conclusion.

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other silently, and they did not back down from each other.

Zhou Shuo is a smart man, and he looks serious, which doesn't mean he is a sour fool.He has long been aware of Wei Liao's intentions of defending Yun Heng, but there is no need to point it out. Now that Wei Liao clearly made the request, he also knows that there may be no chance of bringing the criminal to justice anyway.

He could see that Wei Liao had his own considerations, and he also knew that the law was the weakest link in such an important matter involving Jiedushi, so he only said one sentence: "Your Majesty can forgive him."

It is naturally impossible to be acquitted.

After Zhou Shuo resigned, Wei Liao sat alone, until Ziqiong came in to change the seal incense, which woke him up.

Afterwards, Zhou Shuoju recounted the process and conclusions of the interrogation and investigation, and there were a lot of quarrels in the court.

Since Wei Liao came to the throne, this was the biggest quarrel between the court and China.If Yun Heng had only killed someone, the controversy would not have been so heated, but he was out of filial piety to avenge his mother. In a short time, this case was known to the whole country, and there was a lot of discussion from the temple to the rivers and lakes.

Naturally, there are quite a few people who insist on exiling him according to the law. Gein's murder is murder, and there are people behind the governor of Jiangzhou. It's just that the party dispute may make things even more confusing. Now it's a dispute between civil servants and generals. Yun Heng is still a "Yi Di", it is much easier to distinguish the enemy from ourselves.

But the reasons for pardoning him were just as good.The governor of Jiangzhou used good people or other concubines as slaves, which also violated the law. What's more, he treated guests with his own daughters. His behavior was heinous. Except for interested parties, few people spoke for him.If he was still alive, at least he would lose his official position. Now that he is dead, what everyone cares about is what to do with Yun Heng.

Wei Liao intentionally set off this debate involving all parties, so he naturally had his own purpose, but Yun Heng turned a blind eye to this, and entered the palace as usual, most of which were to amuse Wei Liao when he was bored, with an obedient bow Look like a ferocious beast, or just sit in a dutiful manner in the posthouse, and don't even come out of the door, making a full gesture.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the Chunwei to open, and the behavior of criticizing and criticizing Yunheng from various places in the capital finally restrained, and they tried it honestly.

Even the Ministry of Etiquette was worried about this before, and even asked Fu Xiru how to appease them if they became angry, and how to deal with them if they wrote a letter collectively.

Fortunately not.

This is the case for scholars from all over the world, troublesome but useful, the so-called Confucianism violates the law with literature, and the chivalry violates the law with martial arts. Wei Liao has never seen anyone who violates the law with martial arts.His temper is doomed to not take it seriously even if he submits his letter, and this matter will only get bigger and bigger.

The Ministry of Rites and Shang Shusheng are going to have a headache anyway.

Fu Xiru knew what it meant to ask him about this, so he couldn't push it off, so he came up with an idea and missed some false questions, which allowed them to enter the examination room peacefully.

He has nothing to do with proctoring and grading papers. The other matter in front of him belongs to Princess Qinghe.According to the regulations, when a princess enters the capital, hundreds of officials should greet her in person, and Wei Liao took time out of his busy schedule to indicate that this is inevitable, so how to greet her in person, schedule the station, and the procedure of the ceremony, still needs to come up with a rule of thumb from the Minister of Finance, write a booklet and hand it over Go up, Wei Liao is sure, and then he can start.

Fortunately, the end of the Yiyang King's case is almost over, and the rest is nothing more than looking through the classics to see how to welcome Princess Qinghe, and at the same time do a good job in passing on the people after the palace examination, appointing officials, and selecting the hundreds of officials who are lined up together. , Seeing that I am afraid that I will be busy for a whole year, and there is no chance to stop and take a breath.

Fu Xiru had been in the detention center for several days.

Occasionally, Fu Xixing would come to see him. Honglu Temple was not under the jurisdiction of the Shangshu Province, but it was still relatively leisurely. The rule in Suzhi was that officials on duty at night were not allowed to leave without permission, but they could sing poems and send small officials to deliver news, or people who did not need Suzhi Come in and visit.

Spring nights are not short, and they are not busy all the time. Fu Xixing always comes at the right time, and Fu Xiru actually doesn't find it dull or boring.I have long been used to the busyness of being on call all the time, and it would be better if there were no wind and sand. Besides, each person in the palace is allocated two maids, and there is still a room to sleep in.

Among the many controversies, Fu Xiruo stood in line to pardon Yun Heng's faction, which was well-founded, and it was not beyond everyone's expectations. It was even guessed that Wei Liao's intentions were the same, which caused a little disturbance.

It was also at this time that Fu Xiru incidentally found that Fu Xixing was quite calm.They talked about Yun Heng's case. Fu Xiru didn't intend to keep Fu Xixing ignorant of this kind of matter. He should be a little vigilant and have a sense of smell, so that he can really grow up and live a good life on his own.

But what Fu Xixing said surprised him.

"I know there are some things that my elder brother doesn't want me to know. It's for my own good, and I won't ask. But you have to know, elder brother, that you can't protect me like this. How can there be any eggs under the cover of the nest? You always have to consider letting me I'll help you. I don't know, it's not possible to escape, you and my brother, there is no reason in the world for me to throw you in danger."

Fu Xiru didn't know how to refute this argument.After Fu Xixing finished speaking, he quietly got up and left, letting him decide whether to hand over some of the secrets.

After all, the separation made them both stronger, exceeding each other's expectations, and much better than expected.Fu Xiru was stunned for a while, then smiled in relief.

The next day, he told Fu Xixing that Princess Fu Xixing's return to Beijing was related to him, but Wei Liao didn't know about it, and told him not to ask or talk too much in Honglu Temple, and just pretend that he didn't know anything.

Fu Xixing obviously wanted to say a lot, his eyes widened in surprise, but he finally moved his mouth and still didn't say anything.

He knew why his brother kept his mouth shut before.He was too close to the sky, so he didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the heavenly beings.Every move like this may lead to disaster, but not saying a word is the best choice.

Before the princess entered the city, she finally got all the necessary guards of honor. In the solemn welcome of all the officials, there was a vast array of Jinxiu cigarettes in the distance.

Red embroidered five-dragon crank cover front leads, standing melon, lying melon, Guduo, flag gun, letter streamer, knotted velvet, canopy, symmetrical on the left and right, with a treasure-shaped umbrella in the middle peacock fan, Qingluo Yunduo golden incense box, gold pin The dust is as good as it is, and the palace people with lowered eyebrows are surrounded by a golden canopy embroidered with green luan, under which is Princess Qinghe's car.

She used a Yandi chariot, drove two horses, red, gold decorations, red teeth painted on the wheel, diyu decorated on the box, purple oil pan, red brocade curtains, red silk nets, red brocade belts, empress six One of the cars was borrowed from the palace.

There is no empress in the palace, and these cars were made temporarily according to local conditions. Concubine Pan cleaned the palace and asked the princess about her usual hobbies. She wholeheartedly took this important event as an opportunity to show off her talents, and she did it very meticulously. .

She has been waiting for this princess for a long time.
