Chapter 12 The twelfth round Cao Xueqin was delighted to learn that the female singer Liu Tongxun announced the decree of the Prison Temple

Qian Duyin was well-known in the university, and as soon as the roster of the Ministry of Rites was handed over to the Qianqing Palace, he knew that he was hopeless in this subject.He was very active, and immediately went to the study to see Zhang Tingyu sell the holiday.Zhang Tingyu said: "It's rare that you are still thinking about the mission here. The book office of the Military Aircraft Office who went out to take the exam hasn't come back yet, and they are about to send someone! The war in Yunnan is intense these days, and you can't leave people for a moment. You are in the Military Aircraft Chuzhang’s Beijing room is in charge of dismantling and reading battle reports. You go to Li Youxu’s place first, he fell ill when he returned to Beijing, give my greetings, and say he’s going to see him after he’s busy with the palace exam, what does he need? Come back Tell me. You will send this file to Fu Liuye's mansion, just on the way."

"Yes Yes Yes!" Qian Du promised again and again, and called Ertai again, went out to Donghuamen to ask for a horse, and came straight to Li Wei's mansion. Li Wei followed Qianlong to Henan with a sigh of relief, and fell ill the night he returned to Beijing.It was originally said that all visits were declined.But Qian Du was recommended by his disciples, and was ordered by Zhang Tingyu, so it's a different matter.Qian Du stood in the concierge for less than a bag of cigarettes, and then called inside.The family led them all the way to the study room, and warned: "Our Mrs. Xian (Tui'er) told me that no matter who sees the master, let alone a serious job, the time should not be too long. The adult's illness needs to be recuperated. Anyway, Master Qian is sympathetic Come on, don’t go and ask your wife to punish us.” Qian Du laughed softly, “Understood, do you still use excrement to pour carrots?” As he spoke, there was a liver-choking cough from a distance, and he knew that Li Wei had died. Arrived.Qian Du stood outside, waiting for Li Wei to calm down, then stepped in lightly, said with a friendly voice, "Qian Du greets Da Sima Li!"

"It's Old Master Qian." Cui'er sat beside Li Wei, turned around and whispered, "You gossip, I'll come later." Li Wei closed his eyes and leaned back on the big pillow, his face was as pale as paper and thin Ru Chai pointed at the chair, and said weakly, "Excuse me for being rude, my body is just like this... Zhang Zhongtang is good!" Qian Du had just seen the tear stains on Tweety's face, and knew that he was seriously ill, so he carefully sat down with his body tilted and replied: "Zhongtang is in good health, but he is busy. He is not as good as E Zhongtang will take care of himself." Zhang Tingyu's words were passed on.Li Wei seemed overwhelmed with emotion. "I don't have a few days to live well. I didn't expect that I, Li Wei, will have today! How could I have been like this back then! Gan Fengchi made thirty-six friends in Nanjing and gathered the world's martial arts heroes. I was dressed in common clothes and only brought a little Xi Nu I captured him. And that blind man Wu, it took a lot of effort to capture him! Huang Gun, Huang Tianba and his son from Shandong were also captured by me. Dou Erdun fought against the court, so I bought my face... How strange, I am Not only is the emperor's watchdog, but also like a fucking thief and beggar leader... Li Wei, you have lived a good life..." The sparkle in his eyes gradually dissipated.He closed his eyes and said: "Mr. Qian, these words are because we are setting up a dragon's gate, and if it spreads out, it will not be good for you. Please tell Zhang Zhongtang, be sure to make things right for me in front of the master, and allow me to return to my hometown after my illness." Have a good few years to live..."

Listening to his words, Qian Du's heart sank for some reason, and he got up gently and said, "Sir, take it easy, there is no incurable disease in the world. I will tell Zhang Zhongtang when I go back." "Stop for a moment." Li Wei opened his eyes, looked at Qian Du and sighed: "I have two major regrets in my life. One is that I shouldn't be overbearing, and I had trouble with Mr. Yang Song, which made him sit in the prison. In fact, in the early years We get along very well... This matter is irreparable. The second is the mysterious case in Texas, which has not been solved yet. Two months ago, right? That Liu Kang came to Beijing for an audience, and he dared to come to my place to pay his respects! This is not a rat game An old cat? But Mrs. He Jian has no news, no plaintiff, and no evidence, so it’s not easy to file a case. Just ask me, as long as you have a letter from her, tell me!"

Seeing that he was so self-cleaning, Qian Du couldn't help feeling ashamed: It's the most convenient for him to find evidence, even if he is half of the witness, he doesn't have the guts to do it.Thinking about it, Qian Du casually comforted Li Wei and resigned. Fu Heng's mansion is completely like another world.Qian Du walked into the grand gate of the five couplets, and heard the faint sound of Sheng and Xiaoqin from inside the mansion.Hearing that it was Zhang Tingyu's messenger, the gatekeeper didn't even report it, so he sent someone to the garden with money to cross the willow field.During the national mourning period, all civil and military officials in the world stopped having fun, but Fu Heng was so bold, Qian Du couldn't help but secretly surprised, and hurriedly asked the long follower who led the way: "Is your lord in the garden?"

"Master and Empress selected twelve actors from the Changchun Garden to reward our Lord." Chang Sui smiled, "Master Heng dare not accept it, Lord Long Live said, after three years of mourning, we will have a subject of erudite CI, and the world will be rewarded." Daqing cannot be without music. It is inconvenient to teach in the palace, so we asked our master to practice the moves for these actors." Qian Du couldn't help laughing secretly: This job is not bad. Walking through several corridors, looking from a distance, I saw a large water pavilion built in the middle of Haizi in the garden. The white marble fence stone bridge zigzags and goes straight to the shore. There are stone tables, bamboo chairs and chairs under a row of thick weeping willows on the shore. .Fu Heng and a dozen or so screen friends were chatting and laughing.The breeze passed by, the willows whirled, and the lotus leaves rolled.Just came here from Li Wei's dull study, and suddenly felt refreshed.The singing girl on the stage sang:

To open up Hongmeng, who is the love?It's all just for the love of Fengyue.But what a day, when I am sad, when I am lonely, trying to get rid of my stupidity... Qian Du slowly walked to the willow tree, listening to the sound across the water.This singing sound like chants, sighs, melancholy, and smoothness is like mercury pouring down the ground, as if it penetrates the pores of a person's body and skin, and penetrates directly into the heart.Qian Du was also dumbfounded. "Oh, Qian Du, we are old acquaintances." Fu Heng listened fascinatedly until the end of the song, and the lingering lingering sound was gone, then he came back to his senses, turned his face and smiled and said: "Don't ask about prosperity and decline when you are a beginner, but you will know when you see your appearance." Know—Mr. Jinke is not proud, is he? Fang Qing—pass over the file that Mr. Qian took.” Then I saw the girl playing the fan behind Fu Heng walked around a few Qingke chairs and came to take the file, holding the file in both hands. Give it to Fu Heng.Fu Heng took it out and took a look, then put it on the coffee table.Only then did Qian Du notice that it turned out that Cao Xueqin was sitting opposite Fu Heng.Qian Du laughed and said, "Brother Xueqin came to Liu Ye's mansion to be the guest of honor?"

Cao Xueqin was wearing a gray poplin robe.Shaking a Xiangfei bamboo fan, she leaned over and smiled, "Thanks to the sixth master, I work as an errand in the right-wing sect school, but I just make a living. Long live rewarded Fu Liuye with twelve golden hairpins, and taught singing and dancing. I just came to make fun of it." "A love song that captivates everyone, and you call it 'for fun'?" Fu Heng smiled heartily, "If it wasn't for Fang Qing, you wouldn't come here! Fang Qing, right?" A dozen or so Qing guests burst into laughter .Some said: "We have seen it a long time ago, and today the sixth master has made the truth clear." Some said: "Dong Weng used Fang Qing as bait to catch Mr. Cao's poems!" The guest stood up and said with a smile: "If we talk about it, we just have fun. The last time Master Heng was eating wine with Xueqin in the flower hall, it was Fangqing who held the wine. Xueqin was like that at the time—" He imitated it .He took a steady look at Fang Qing, lowered his eyelids, as if he couldn't help but sneak another glance. "Fang Qing looked like this at that time—" Mouse Beard imitated Fang Qing's appearance again: he first twisted his waist pretentiously, lowered his head shyly and fiddled with the skirt of his clothes, and then glanced at Cao Xueqin, "— —Sixth Master, can I learn like this?" Fu Heng was drinking tea, and he spit out the whole thing with a "poof", and said repeatedly: "Xiang Xiang...that's it!"

"Are the masters and slaves happy?" Fang Qing blushed with embarrassment, stole a glance at Cao Xueqin, spat, turned and left.Qian Du couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw that the Qingke learned so well.Seeing that Cao Xueqin was embarrassed by everyone's laughter, Fu Heng turned to Fangqing and said, "Don't go, it's no fun to go away." Then he said to Cao Xueqin, "You promise me one thing, I will send Fangqing to you today. " Cao Xueqin's eyes flashed, and he smiled without saying a word. "Last time you said that you were writing." Fu Heng smiled and said: "How is the writing going now! Send me the manuscript, and I want to see it first." Cao Xueqin pondered for a while, then smiled and said: "Sixth Master has a life, stick to it. How dare you disobey? But it is still too early for this book to be finished. Prince Yi is going to go over there, write a chapter and copy it, and then send it back to the original manuscript. The sixth master wants to see it, so I have to ask Fang Qing to copy it for you. Even the song I sang just now is in the book. Liu Ye, how about I copy another one for you right now?" He said and stood up.On the ready-made pen and paper on the coffee table next to the willow tree, I saw Cao Xueqin thought for a while and wrote quickly:

One is the fairy flower of Jianyuan, and the other is the flawless jade.If you say there is no romance, you will meet him again in this life; if you say there is a romance, how will your heart end with nothing?One is lamenting, the other is worrying in vain.One is the moon in the water, and the other is the flower in the mirror.Think how many teardrops there are in your eyes, how can you prevent autumn from flowing into winter, and spring from flowing into summer! "Good, good!" Fu Heng even praised. "Jiuzhuanyichang is so sad and sad, it's really ecstasy--look, look, Fangqing is crazy again!" One side called out repeatedly: "Send this song to the side of Shuixiezi, call me Twelve golden hairpins blending exercises!"

Cao Xueqin didn't let go of his pen: "Sixth master speaks like a tripod, Cao Zhan is really happy today. Although I can't use the book to teach now, I will write a poem first to commemorate today's joy!" Everyone applauded immediately after hearing this. Praise.I saw Xueqin writing quickly and writing: The cloud temples are low and the servant girl is Pei Mingdang, and the Qing songs of the Yaochi are played by the palace merchants. Flying to Jinghong, I was disappointed in Jian, and wandering around Luoyang worried about the dragon. Playing the pipa music in the workshop, the half-boat poets are heartbroken. Bai Fu Shiling should be very happy, and he will teach the barbarian ghosts to show off! After writing, she lightly put down the pen, said with a smile to Fang Qing: "God knows and the earth knows you and I know, let's go!" Fang Qing stared at Cao Xueqin's dark eyes, lowered her head shyly, and jumped on her toes. For a long time, the soil under the ground seemed to have made up his mind, and he gave Fu Heng two blessings upright, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, master... Fang Qing will never forget to give birth to Buddha and burn incense for you for as long as Fang Qing is alive." ..." After saying that, he followed Cao Xueqin and went forward. "It's really a rare talent in the world!" Fu Heng looked at the backs of the two wistfully, and sighed in amazement: "In comparison, we royal relatives are really like dirt." Qian Du was listening to him expressing such noble feelings, He also said with emotion: "Master Liu is happy today, and even I have helped my son to feast his eyes and ears—if you have no other orders, I should go back." Fu Heng smiled and said: "Zhang Xijie has come to the capital. This is his case file sent by Tingyu. The emperor intends to ask Tongxun and me to pass the decree for interrogation. Tongxun is the presiding judge and has gone to receive the decree in the morning. I am also going to beekeeping. Come on, you go back to the military plane , we can still go on the same road for a while." The Qingke said that someone had already rushed to tell Fu Heng to prepare a horse. Fu Heng and Qian Du rode one in front of the other, surrounded by their families, and they parted ways when they reached the alley deep in Huahua.Fu Heng rode his horse across the alley, and turned two more bends, which was the beekeeping lane.Fu Heng saw Liu Tongxun standing in front of the Prison Temple waiting for him from afar.Turning over and getting off the horse, he threw the stiff rope to his family members, went up to meet him and said with a smile: "You came earlier than me, I guess you didn't come until after Shen Shi!" "The lowly position has just arrived." Liu Tongxun was dressed in imperial robes and boots, sweating all over his face, greeted Fu Heng, got up and wiped his sweat, and said, "Sixth Master is sitting on the bench, how dare the lowly position be contemptuous? "While talking, he stretched out his hand to let Fu Heng enter the temple, and said: "It's cool here, let's discuss it first before doing business." The Prison Temple with beekeeping is said to be a "temple", but in fact it has long since been converted into a temporary detention center.About a stone's throw to the south of here is the prison of the Ministry of punishment, commonly known as Tianlao.During the reign of Kangxi, this place belonged to the Clan House of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which specially imprisoned the relatives and dignitaries of the clan who violated the law.The old Prince Yi Yunxiang (the father of Hong Xiao), the elder brother Yunti, and the tenth elder brother Yunqi all once squatted in the classroom here.Therefore, Beijingers jokingly call this place the "Drowned Brother's Office". Perhaps because of this bad reputation, it was transferred to the jurisdiction of Dali Temple in the third year of Yongzheng. If you commit a crime, you will be sent far away to Zhengjiazhuang.The Prison Temple, which has undergone several changes, has long since lost its shrines and seats, and even the couplets have been eradicated.Except for the main hall, the houses are not big, and the surrounding walls are made of water-polished blue bricks, which are almost twice as tall as ordinary houses. They are three feet thick, and no matter how poisonous the sun is, they cannot penetrate it. Therefore, whenever you enter this courtyard, it will be gloomy. Senliang Jinjin.When Fu Heng and Liu Tongxun walked through the corridor to the main hall, all the sweat on their bodies had disappeared. "Alas... I really didn't expect that Zhang Detian would be detained here to listen to my interrogation by Fu Heng!" Fu Heng frowned, bowed his head and sighed: "He is my teacher! I learned temperament from him, and I learned piano and chess from him. With him, when he was six years old, he practiced calligraphy with my hands. How can I face him now?" He covered his face with his hands, tears rolled out. Liu Tongxun knew all this.When Qianlong met him just now, he was also like this, with the feeling of beating Ma Su with tears.What Zhang Xi committed was not an ordinary crime. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers spent several years working hard and were beaten to death by thousands of Miao natives scattered in the mountains. No one could protect him.Liu Tongxun said: "Master Liu, it's useless to be sad. We can only do our best to tell him to avoid the pain of flesh and blood. What will happen in the future depends on his family. I don't want Master Liu to be in trouble for this matter. I and Zhang Detian has no teacher-student friendship, I will sing this black face, you just sit and listen." Fu Heng sighed, and said with tears: "According to your opinion, what punishment should he be given for this crime?" "Ling Chi is not enough." Liu Tongxun said: "Instead of saying that he violated the laws of the country, it is better to say that he committed crimes." Military law. It is irreversible to lose the opportunity. As for extrajudicial favors, we, the courtiers, dare not speak rashly." Fu Heng sighed, and said: "It is really a scholar who leads the army..." Suddenly, a thought came to him , almost said it, but stopped, and said: "Please come and talk." Zhang Xixiang was brought into the Prison Temple with a shackle wrapped in yellow silk and a chain of iron chains.This is a man in his early forties, an old minister of three dynasties. When he was a Jinshi in the first class in the forty-eight years of Kangxi, he was just fourteen years old when he was selected as a scholar of the Imperial Academy. During the Yongzheng period, it was ordered to add notes, renamed "Shengyu Guangxun", and issued it to Tianxia Xuegong.It is still a must-read homework for students entering the school.Four years ago, he was still the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, in charge of this prison temple.Now, he himself is a prisoner here.This is a very well-dressed man. Although he has been wearing torture instruments, his official clothes are clean and ironed.The expression on Bai Jing's face looked very peaceful, but there was melancholy in his eyes, staring blankly at Fu Heng and Liu Tongxun who came out of the steps. "Give Master Zhang the punishment." Seeing Fu Heng's unbearable expression, Liu Tongxun stood in a daze, waved his hands and ordered, "Brother Detian, please come in and sit down, let's talk first." Zhang Xi seemed to be at this moment Waking up from the stupefaction, he followed the two into the house.Fu Heng didn't say anything, just gave up his hand and let Zhang Xi take the guest seat.Liu Tongxun was accompanied by the Prime Minister. For a while, the three of them were relatively silent.After a long silence, Fu Hengcai said: "Teacher looks good. You haven't been wronged here, are you?" Zhang Xi leaned forward and said, "Thank Liu Master for taking care of me, the people here treat me very well. They used to be my cousins, but now Who would make it difficult for me like this?" Liu Tongxun said: "I went to the mansion the other day and met Mrs. Sister-in-law. The family is fine. Don't worry about it. Madam is worried about your daily necessities and needs to send things over. I said no .I can still take care of these things.” "This is Lord Yanqing's affection." Zhang Xi suddenly felt sore, "I know the crimes I have committed. When the case is closed, if I can see my children and wives, I will be satisfied." As he spoke, the circles of his eyes turned red .Liu Tongxun looked at Fu Heng, stood up, and said seriously: "Tongxun has something to ask Zhang Xi by order!" Hearing this, Fu Heng trembled, and stood up quickly, standing behind Liu Tongxun.Zhang Zhao hurriedly left his seat, knelt down and kowtowed: "The sinner Zhang Xi is here..." "You are a scholar of literature." Liu Tongxun said coldly, with no expression on his face, "At that time when the incident in Miaojiang started, the late emperor had no intention of sending imperial ministers to supervise the army. According to your prelude, you don't know anything about military affairs, so why did you invite your former enemies repeatedly? , Play it according to the facts!" Zhang Xi knew that there must be such a question, and he had a plan in his mind. He sighed and replied: "There is no difference in the decision of the first emperor to pacify the Miao border and reform the land. Ertai has made great efforts to change the current situation, and the military has a little After the defeat, he panicked and asked for the order to be stopped. At that time, the guilty minister thought that it was because the frontier commanders were shirking each other and the military orders were inconsistent. Selfishly, he wished to preside over the military as a scholar, and he would surely win. So he took the liberty to invite Ying. Now it is done If you mess up your mission, the guilty minister should accept the military orders of the country and France. I don’t dare to hide my sophistry.” Zhang Xi did not lie during this incident, but in fact the real manipulator behind the scenes was his teacher Zhang Tingyu.In order not to let Zhang Guangsi, a disciple of Ertai, take the credit alone, Zhang Tingyu hinted several times that it would be difficult for the provinces to manage without an imperial envoy. " "In order to be impartial and upright, and to be impartial, we must be united to fight against the enemy." Liu Tongxun repeated Qianlong's words, "You can take the initiative to ask for a job, why do you play 'changing the flow is not the best strategy' in any month? Yangwei General Ha Yuan What is the enmity between Sheng and you, blindly reusing deputy general Dong Fang, causing the master and deputy generals to reverse their powers? Are you going to conquer the Miao border and change the current situation, or to divide the jurisdiction between Kazakhstan and Dong, and mediate and reconcile?" This is a more embarrassing question. In fact, the root of it lies in the open and secret struggle between Ertai and Zhang Tingyu.But the two are now Qianlong's most popular and trusted ministers, how dare Zhang Xi play it directly?Thinking about it, he said: "This is the evil minister's way of dispatching the good. I originally wanted to make a clear distinction, so that the generals have their own special responsibilities so that they will not fight with each other. Unexpectedly, the two of them aggravated the quarrel because of the uneven division." He pondered for a while and then said : "At this time, I reflect on myself, and the sinful minister is really unfair. Dong Fang is a good writer, and I would like Dong Fang to make meritorious service. This selfishness cannot escape the holy lesson." When he said this, Liu Tongxun couldn't help being startled, because behind This passage is exactly what Qianlong wanted to reprimand him, "Did he go to fight the war, or go to sing the wind and enjoy the moon?" Unexpectedly, Zhang Xi himself had already admitted the blame, so it was not easy to ask again.After thinking about it, Liu Tongxun interrupted the question and said, "Minister Zhang Guangsi is the commander-in-chief of the entire army. The late emperor appointed you to coordinate the deployment of troops from all ministries and supervise the use of troops. How dare you abuse your authority and act like a substitute? Is it child's play? Since you regard state affairs as children's play and ignore military affairs, it is reasonable for me to abandon you to the law!" "The emperor is so responsible, and the guilty minister is convinced. The only way to apologize is to die. What excuse is there?" Zhang Xi bowed his head and kowtowed loudly. "Although the guilty minister died without any complaints, there is still one thing I want to say to your majesty. I originally thought that Zhang Guangsi was just self-willed. I have known him for three years, and his narrow-mindedness is unbelievable. Since the guilty minister took office, he has repeatedly approached him. When I went to discuss military affairs, I said that I only listened to the order of the guilty minister. In fact, there was no word of praise, and there was no word of mediation for Ha Yuan's incident. Check your heart, this person cannot be reused!" So far the question is over.Fu Heng felt a little relieved when he heard that Zhang Xi's answer was correct.Liu Tongxun glanced at Fu Heng, seeing that he was speechless, he shouted loudly: "Come on!" "exist!" A few Goshhas were guarding the corridor outside the hall, obeying orders and entering.Liu Tongxun shouted sharply: "Go to Zhang Xiding and wear Hualing!" "tie!" Zhang Xi's face was pale, and he waved his hands to stop Goshha who was rushing forward. He unscrewed the knob of the coral top with his slender fingers, took off the peacock feather and held it in both hands, then bowed his head deeply and said: "Sin!" Your Majesty Xie En..." Fu Heng took a few steps forward to help Zhang Xi up, and said: "Teacher, take care, the Prison Temple here is no better than outside, I will naturally take care of food and daily life. It is inconvenient to communicate with each other in private. If there is any need, tell the prison guards here." , so that the bones of the body will not be wronged. The confession must not be concealed, and more blame and self-reproach, leaving room for us to speak in it." While speaking, weeping.Zhang Xi calmed down at this time, and said: "Please Liu Ye go to the court. I just want to die quickly and apologize. How dare I cover up my mistakes?" Send Zhang Xi to the No. 4 single room, someone will watch him day and night, and the paper and pen are all ready, don't scold him, and don't let him indulge, you hear me?" "Sixth Master, Lord Yanqing, I'm going now." Zhang Xi said sadly, kowtowed to Fu Heng and Liu Tongxun again, and then went with the jailer.Fu Heng looked at his back and sighed: "He has always suffered from a good reputation." Liu Tongxun said with a smile: "I think the sixth master is really a bit of a woman. Zhang Xi is in command of the army of six provinces, and it costs millions of money to run the Guizhou Miao In any case, he is at least a mediocre minister. As far as the crime is concerned, there is more than enough punishment for death." Fu Heng smiled wryly, and said: "He is a talented scholar. This time, he really chose to sacrifice his strengths. He volunteered, which is actually a good name. You don't have a close relationship with Zhang Xi, but he is not incompetent." After finishing speaking, he stood up , and said: "Take it slow, don't worry, Miao Jiang is now under the command of Zhang Guangsi, this battle has been won, maybe the master is happy, and Zhang Xi will be punished lightly. I don't know."However, Liu Tongxun thought that Zhang Guangsi and Zhang Xi were in the same situation, and that Zhang Xi would lose his mind if he "won the battle".Only by "defeating" can Zhang Xi be justified, or he can escape punishment.Liu Tongxun felt that Fu Heng was quite scheming.But with Fu Heng's status, he didn't dare to expose this layer of paper. Fu Heng walked out of the beekeeping lane, and rushed to the military plane to look for Zhang Tingyu without stopping.Zhang Tingyu was not there.Zhang Jing of the Military Aircraft Department said he was in the study.Fu Heng came to the upper study room again, and saw that Prince Zhuang Yunlu and Prince Yi Hongxiao were there, and Zhang Tingyu and Ertai were sitting beside him.A senior official of the second rank was sitting at the entrance, facing several royal ministers inside, making a speech impassionedly.Fu Heng recognized him as Wang Shijun, governor of Hedong. "Although Yun Hunger and Yun Yu are the flesh and blood of the late emperor, the late emperor's treatment at that time was really impartial and selfish, and righteousness destroyed relatives." Wang Shijun only glanced at Fu Heng, and continued: "The release now is due to the benevolence of the current emperor, according to' I have no objection to discussing relatives and nobles. But there is no word in the mansion newspaper that they blamed the emperor and thanked the emperor for his kindness. This is puzzling: Did the late emperor imprison them wrongly?" He seemed to ask Everyone looked around appreciatively. There was silence all around.Ertai said: "The emperor asked you to talk to us in the study. There is no other purpose. We just listen. You just say it." "Just say it." Wang Shijun said coldly, "I'm getting more and more confused. I I don't know what kind of medicine is in the gourds of you dukes. You released the sinners for no reason. You made Yunyu the king, and today I saw the mansion newspaper and made Yunh the Duke of the Fuguo. Which country did he serve? Is it the kingdom of the dead Yunyu, Yuntang, or the kingdom of Yunfeng? Wang Jingqi was the first to persuade Nian Gengyao to rebel. Censor, if you were wronged, why didn’t you say a word? If you weren’t wronged, why did you go to the study and issue a document to release all Wang Jingqi’s family members, and all those involved in the Nian Gengyao case were exonerated, and many returned to their posts. The first emperor once pardoned Zeng Jing, a sinner who has reformed himself, and issued a clear edict: "My descendants will not be punished for slandering me in the future." , kill Zeng Jing outrageously?" He spoke at length, repeatedly questioned with sharp words, and didn't pay attention to the princes and ministers, Fu Heng was stunned. "Come on," Zhang Tingyu poured a cup of tea himself, "Are you thirsty? Come on, let's talk." "Xie Zhongtang." Wang Shijun took a sip of tea, and said as if there was no one else around: "The first emperor cleared up the deficiencies and punished corrupt officials. All the kings are scholars. Since the Ming Dynasty, which generation of officials has the most clean governance? Yongzheng! Now the deficiencies are all Avoid chasing. The officials at the bottom saw the wind and turned the rudder. They cleverly set up a name and allocated money from the office to dig up the treasury. Greed is on the rise again. The first emperor set up an official system for old farmers in order to reward land reclamation and support farming and mulberry. Farming is good, rewarding eight-rank vain titles, This is good governance! In Zhang Yun’s melody, this good governance was also abolished... In this way, I don’t know where the rulers put the former emperor? I also don’t understand, where do you put the present Long Live God? Let me put it bluntly, What is a good article now: as long as the national policy set by Sejong is reversed, it is a good article!" He took another sip of tea and sneered: "You ask questions according to orders, and I answer according to orders. That's all. No more. " Several ministers looked at each other, Yun Lu was not eloquent, so he turned to Zhang Tingyu and said, "Hengchen, tell me." "I admire your courage." Zhang Tingyu nodded and said, "Your report not only tells us to go to the study, but also sweeps in the emperor's 'serving lenient government'. Many things you said are true. It has been sent to Jiuqing, and everyone has their own screening. Even those who brought me and other ministers to the study room, we have to explain—but not to you, we are not responsible to you, only to the emperor." Ertai coughed lightly and said : "The emperor has already approved your memorial. You are guilty or not. What charges, we have discussed and asked for an order. You don't have to go to Fujian to serve as governor. Fu Heng is here, hand it over to him, and you are temporarily in the beekeeping lane." Standby." "That's how business is." Yun Lu smiled, stood up and patted Wang Shijun on the shoulder, "I believe you are a man. Within three days you have to write an apology and admit that you have lied. You can still speak in front of the Holy One. Otherwise, I can't do anything." Wang Shijun just smiled, turned to Fu Heng and said, "Isn't Zhang Xi also among the beekeepers? Can you imprison us together? I'll take the time to learn some poetry." Fu Heng saw Zhang Tingyu's note asking him to come in, but he never expected Sent to this errand, he was taken aback and said: "Let's talk about it later."
