The Human Emperor

Chapter 109: Wang Chong Meets King Song!

Song and Wang are not just a simple political alliance, there are many other emotional factors in it.

Old King Song and Jiugong are of the same generation, and they were good brothers back then.

In that turbulent era, the two fought side by side, supporting the current Holy Emperor to reach his present position together.

For this reason, it can be said that King Song grew up under the watchful eye of Duke Jiu.

When the old King Song was still alive, Jiu Gong had also been to King Song's mansion, saw him, and hugged him. Abandoning the political reasons, in the depths of his heart, King Song actually regarded Jiu Gong as a father figure and a kind elder.

Therefore, although Jiu Gong expressed his support for him this time, which made him a little disappointed, King Song did not lose his temper because of this.

King Song didn't have much impression of Wang Chong. But when I think about it carefully, I actually have a somewhat vague impression.

When he was young, I should have hugged and coaxed him. Only later, when he took the position of King Song, he was busy with all kinds of affairs, so he no longer had time to pay attention to these "junior people".

Now that the affairs in the court have come to an end for the time being, looking at Wang Chong in front of him brought back memories in King Song's heart, and aroused some feelings of being an elder.

Wang Chong didn't know what King Song was thinking, but Wang Chong could feel that the current King Song was the kindest, most easy-going, and most relaxed time for him.

It seems that he is talking to himself completely as an elder.

"Your Highness, the elders give it to me, but I dare not give it to you. If possible, can the junior ask for someone?"

Wang Chong bowed his head and said.

"A person?"

King Song and Lu Ting at the side glanced at each other, and the two were immediately very curious. Especially the King of Song, who was worried about Concubine Taizhen's affairs at first, became interested when he heard Wang Chong's words, and the troubles in the court were temporarily forgotten by him.

"Hahaha, alone? A woman? You've taken a fancy to the girl from that family. Young Mu Ai, this is also human nature. Tell me, no matter who it is, I will help you personally."

Song Wang laughed and said, his mood seemed much better.

Who hasn't been young before, upon hearing Wang Chong's words, Song Wang thought which girl Wang Chong liked, and it brought back many memories in himself.

"That's right, Mr. Chong, you can just say it. Even if it's a princess, it's not impossible for His Royal Highness King Song to come forward."

Lu Ting stroked his beard and teased from the side.

"No! Your Highness misunderstood."

What embarrassment did Wang Chong feel? This was not the case at all. Where are these two thinking?

"The junior wants to save a person, but only His Highness can save him. The junior wants to ask His Highness to help save him!"

"Oh?"

King Song looked at Wang Chong and saw that he didn't seem to be joking, so he frowned immediately, put away his smile, and said solemnly:

"Who do you want to save? Let me tell you first, the state owns the state laws, the family has its family rules, and the court has the court's laws and regulations. Even if I am a royal prince, I can't do whatever I want!"

"This junior understands that this person is called Zhang Munian. The things he committed are not serious. This is his file, Your Highness can take a look."

Wang Chong lowered his head, took out the handwritten file prepared in advance, held it in his hands, and handed it over.

Song Wang Wang Chong must see him. It's not just for Concubine Taizhen. For Wang Chong, there is another person who is much more important than Concubine Taizhen.

This person is Zhang Munian!

Since his rebirth, Wang Chong has thought about countless days and nights. If he wants to change the fate of the empire, there is one person who is absolutely indispensable:

Zhang Munian!

"Zhang Munian?"

King Song frowned and seemed to be thinking hard, but in the end, King Song found that he didn't remember such a person.

"Bachelor Lu, do you have any impression?" King Song gave him a look.

Lutin shook his head.

He hadn't heard of the name either.

"Is that weird?"

Song Wang was secretly surprised, took the file from Wang Chong, opened it, and read it carefully.

"So he was a farmer, why did he embezzle so much? Twenty thousand taels of gold!"

Song Wang looked at the information on the file and frowned. But in his heart, King Song heaved a sigh of relief. What he was most worried about was that Wang Chong would save the kind of thugs who murdered and set fire, robbed people's daughters, defected to the enemy and treasoned the country, and so on.

As for corruption, although according to the laws of the empire, it is not a small crime. But it's just related to money, in King Song's eyes, it's not too big.

At least, not outrageous.

"Your Highness, the embezzlement of 20,000 taels of gold is indeed true. But this junior assures that there is something else hidden about this matter, and he is definitely not using the money for his own self-interest."

Wang Chong said sincerely.

"Oh?"

King Song raised his brows, but did not continue to ask questions. Such trivial matters at the local official level are not worthy of his attention:

"In this matter, if I can repay the 20,000 taels of gold first, I can indeed help, and let the Ministry of Justice send back the heavy..."

"The 20,000 taels, the junior can help repay it!"

Wang Chong was overjoyed, he didn't wait for King Song to finish speaking, and immediately spoke first. 20,000 taels is a large number in terms of sentencing according to the laws of the empire, but to the current Wang Chong, it is really nothing!

"Hehe, you've heard it all. I can ask the Ministry of Criminal Justice to remand this matter. As long as you return the 20,000 taels of gold he embezzled, this matter will be resolved easily. However, if I promise you, you You have to answer a question for me."

"what!"

Wang Chong raised his head, this was beyond his expectation.

"Don't worry, it won't be too difficult for you. You just need to tell me why you saved him. Is this person your friend?"

King Song laughed. After confirming that the person Wang Chong asked him to save was not a heinous person, King Song was quite relaxed now, and even made fun of him.

"This... I don't actually know him."

Wang Chong hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth:

"But I can tell Your Highness that this person will definitely have a huge impact on Datang in the future."

"Oh?"

When King Song and Lu Ting heard the words, they glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of doubt in each other's eyes. No one understood what Wang Chong meant.

The two of them didn't know why Wang Chong valued Zhang Munian so much. However, after what happened to Yao Guangyi, no one dared to treat him like a fifteen-year-old child anymore.

"I don't know what you want to do. However, as long as you are not a heinous person, as long as you are not too violating the laws of the empire, as long as it is not detrimental to the empire, I can promise you. I will wait for the news when I get back. I'll take care of this."

Song Wangdao.

The last few words were not just about Zhang Munian, but also a warning from King Song to Wang Chong, an intelligent junior.

Wisdom is good when it is used in a good place, and it is evil when it is used in a bad place!

The Wang family is the gate of generals, this point will be especially important in the future!

"Thank you for your teaching, Your Highness!"

Wang Chong also understood what King Song meant by taking the opportunity to teach, and bowed to thank him.

"Hehe, well, it's almost time. Bachelor Lu, let's go back!"

Song Wang said to Lu Ting aside, ready to go back home. This time I came to Sifang Pavilion, for some reason, I suddenly felt a little tired.

"Your Highness, let's go!"

Lu Ting smiled and stretched out his hand to lead the way.

"Wait a moment!"

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Wang Chong blurted out.

"Ok?"

The two turned around and looked at Wang Chong in surprise.

"Wang Chong, is there anything else you need?"

King Song smiled slightly, showing the kindness of an elder. For Wang Chong, a junior, he was very tolerant.

"this……"

Wang Chong hesitated. Although he had made up his mind a long time ago to persuade King Song on the matter of Concubine Taizhen, but when he really opened his mouth, Wang Chong felt a little bit hard to say, and didn't know where to start.

The matter of the "Taizhen Concubine" itself is not a big deal, but what it involves is the duty and principle of the courtiers. King Song taught himself just now that his talents should be used in the right place.

If he brought up the matter of Concubine Taizhen at this time and wanted King Song to change his position, King Song and his uncle still didn't know how to treat him.

I am afraid that the little good impression I have accumulated with painstaking efforts before will not only disappear in smoke, but also be mistaken for a villain by Song Wang and uncle. He has gone astray at a young age and lost his principles.

This matter is not easy to open!

Wang Chong even felt that it was more difficult to solve than the "Jiedushi system".

"What's wrong?"

Wang Chong was anxious and didn't know how to speak. King Song and Lu Ting saw that Wang Chong didn't speak, but became more curious and urged.

"Yes, Mr. Chong, is there anything else you can't say in front of King Song?"

Lu Ting also laughed.

This kid has always given him the impression that he is bold, especially the matter of Yao Guangyi, which is even more impressive. I don't know why, but now I am timid and afraid to speak.

This is not like the unicorn of the Wang family in his impression!

"This junior dares... His Highness is upset about Concubine Taizhen?"

Wang Chong struggled in his heart for a long time, gritted his teeth, and finally decided to speak out.

"Buzz!"

As soon as Wang Chong blurted out his words, the atmosphere near the artificial mountain and bamboo forest suddenly changed. Suddenly, it was as if a gust of wind swept past, and the sky was dark.

Wang Chong only heard a buzzing sound in his ears, and when he looked down, he saw King Song's robe shaking violently.

"What do you want to say?"

King Song said sharply. He originally had a warm face, like a kind elder, but at this moment, his expression changed drastically, his face was extremely livid.

Even Lu Ting, who was next to him, had always had a good impression of Wang Chong, but at this moment, his face changed and he remained silent.

In the void, there seemed to be an invisible pressure expanding, and all the pressure was aimed at Wang Chong in front of him!

"Your Highness misunderstood..."

Wang Chong quickly argued. King Song obviously misunderstood something.

"Wang Chong, today I'm telling you as an elder. Gangchang ethics is the duty of a courtier. Issues of principle are more important than anything else. If the king does something wrong, even if he is reprimanded, relegated, or even Exile, the courtiers must also go to persuade, because this is something more important than life!"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. He is the most wise monarch in the history of our Tang Dynasty. In his hands, our Tang Dynasty is aggressive and pioneering. Now it is from Jiaozhi in the south, Yinshan in the north, Donghai in the east, and Congling in the west. , all belong to the territory of my Tang Dynasty, with an unprecedentedly large area. This is a prosperous age that has never been seen in the history of China's Shenzhou! No emperor can compare with it! Whether it is Qin Huang or Han Wu, That's all!"

"My Great Tang Wenzhi and martial arts are all from the most prosperous dynasties. Your Majesty is the real emperor through the ages! He is now confused for a moment, obsessed with women without knowing it, and has affected the courtiers of the entire Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty does not know it. We As a courtier, you can't help admonishing. No matter what, you can't let your majesty's reputation as an emperor through the ages be stained!"

Song Wang said with a heartache on his face.
