Chapter 274: The Imperial Commissioner

One by one, they wanted to defend themselves, but they were often scolded as soon as they spoke. This last item, not everyone has the qualification to win.

As the saying goes, "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." This is probably the best portrayal of Prince Kang and Prince Rui, followed by Prince Gong. These big trees have endured the ruthless destruction of Emperor Lecheng's violent storm. All the errands above have been stopped, and there have been no salaries for several years. If Emperor Lecheng hadn't opened his mouth to remove their titles and imprisoned them, a group of people headed by Ruan Ruizhong persuaded them to stay. It overturned all the powerful and powerful princes.

Although he wants to restore the title and lift the ban in the future, it is only a matter of his words, but the emperor wants to change the order, and that also needs a reason. The courtiers scolded him a lot, but it was considered to have found the bottom of the stairs. Just thinking about it, he was still angry. The fined salary was raised from three years to ten years. Stretch out his claws and chop directly.

However, no matter how many years of salary, basically no one cares about it. In ten years, no one of them believes that Emperor Lecheng can sit on the throne for another ten years, no matter who is on the throne, as his brother, as long as he is still alive, They won't be mistreated in terms of salary, and they will show kindness to them no matter what.

However, the furious lion of Emperor Lecheng, this time his anger is not so easy to quell, including Empress Sun and Su Guifei, not to mention a group of favorite concubines who have been with the previous dynasty, whenever a word is mentioned, immediately He slapped his face, "The harem is not allowed to do politics", and then walked away.

The concubines also became silent, and they dared not say a word easily. Of course, the current situation is that Emperor Lecheng will not go to their palace at all, and no one will see it. What else can they say? They began to play tricks and tricks again, and after the two palace concubines were demoted one after another, they did not dare to do anything. ——Of course, this is what ordinary concubines would do.

Did Emperor Lecheng not go to the harem? This is not the case. These days, he rests in Concubine Qin Shu's Ganlu Palace almost every night. Now, in the former harem, it seems that this is the only place that can make him feel peaceful. Concubine Qin Shu may not be so knowledgeable, but she is a gentle and quiet person, probably because Emperor Lecheng is not good at her, so naturally she is not the flower of Jieyu in Emperor Lecheng's heart. It's just that she can always be here when she is irritable. I feel a lot more comfortable.

Speaking of which, such a Lecheng Emperor is also a complete scum, and is simply a typical example of ruthlessness.

Emperor Lecheng held a great court meeting, and none of those who had the qualifications to go to court could be left behind. This is the reason why Li Hongyuan came to court.

The people outside the hall looked at the late Prince Jin, still with his sloppy posture and handsome appearance, as if everything could not affect him. It really made people very jealous and annoyed. To put it bluntly, for many days, there has been a happy event in the family, and I can't show a smile, let alone the palace servants who are serving Emperor Lecheng. I want to get close to Emperor Lecheng, and now when I get the "beautiful job", I can only grit my teeth and open my mouth, and secretly hate that the people above are not things.

Anyone who wants to wear Prince Jin's sacks, raise their hands to sign up, let's team up to wear sacks!

No matter what was on his mind, when Li Hongyuan was approaching, he had to say hello to him who changed his greetings, and he had to say hello when he should say hello.

As Li Hongyuan himself said, it was already a face for him to appear. Now that he can nod and respond, the other party should feel flattered.

That is, Luo Peishan, as the grandfather of his daughter-in-law, can also make him say a few words in a low-profile manner.

However, the center of the conversation between them was probably Jing Wan, and it seemed "harmonious", but it looked a little weird.

It's just that Li Hongyuan's timing was relatively accurate. After a few words, no one else had time to say anything. The court meeting began. Civil and military officials lined up and followed the hall in order to prepare for the arrival of Emperor Lecheng.

In this regard, Emperor Lecheng hardly spared everyone's pigeons. After all, this court meeting is not every day. Even if he can fish for two days and dry the nets for three days, he can be a pure dazed king. Sitting high on the dragon chair, looking at the people below, shouting long live, there is no wave on the face, but looking at Li Hongyuan who is honestly in it, at least this bastard didn't slap him this time. Among the adult princes, only He wasn't stained at all, which is very comforting.

Others know what Emperor Lecheng thinks, but do they vomit blood in anger? If they have so much money from Li Hongyuan, and they have enough to eat, they will attack the Salt Administration!

However, those who know the real situation of Li Hongyuan just want to say a few words to Emperor Lecheng. Although they don't know the specifics, would the King of Hell be indifferent to the fat meat of Yan Zheng? Do not make jokes! It's hard to say how much money in it ended up in his hands.

This time, although it seems that it was unintentionally implicated because of the problems of the college examination, there is no Li Hongyuan's handwriting, and no one will believe it, especially those who clearly know that Li Hongyuan wants to move Prince Rui's money bag. As for Others, sorry, you are all implicated by Prince Rui.

The sufferer doesn't know, and the sufferer doesn't know either, because everyone suffers, no one suspects that this time is a man-made design, only bitter haha ​​secretly said that he was too unlucky.

Emperor Lecheng's purpose today is very simple, how to deal with these two things.

Whether it's the academy exam or the salt administration, it's no trivial matter. The former can be said to be related to the future of Qiyuan. You must know that nearly 40% of the officials of Qiyuan are sent from Jiangnan.

, if it really gets worse, other officials from Jiangnan will not be indifferent, and maybe some people will take this opportunity to do bad things, the consequences can be imagined; and Yan Zheng, Qiyuan's finances are also very big. This is the reason for the proportion of the national treasury. If there is a disaster or war, the national treasury is likely to have problems. Originally, the south suffered a major flood, and now the situation on the border is a bit wrong. How could Emperor Lecheng not be violent.

This time, the dispatched personnel to Jiangnan to conduct a thorough investigation, who is the imperial envoy, this is the top priority.

Because the relationship is very wide, there are too few suitable people, and it is difficult to be impartial, and the suitable people are either too low-key and unable to hold the scene - even if they are holding the token of the royal gift, leading the emperor's order, people You don't look down on you, but you still talk beautifully, and you can't easily deal with him; or you can't leave because you are in an important position—I have never heard of a high-ranking officer as an imperial envoy. In short, all parties have recommended many people, but there are always people who strongly oppose it.

Up and down the court, there was no suitable person to be found, and Emperor Lecheng's face turned blue again.

"Ruan Aiqing, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Ruan Ruizhong stood up and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you let Prince Jin be your imperial envoy."

As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence in the court room, and after that, many people spoke out against it almost in unison.

Ruan Ruizhong did not hesitate to face the officials, "This official only asks you, why do you object? Who can be more suitable than Prince Jin?"

Why object? Naturally, Prince Jin is useless and can't do anything, so what can he do when he goes. Of course, I can't say that. In the end, it's the son of the sage. If the sage reprimands him like this, it is okay to dislike it, but it is definitely not the turn of their courtiers to make irresponsible remarks.

"Your Majesty, the last time the Ninth Prince was envoy to the west, the symbolic meaning is also greater than the actual meaning. Prince Jin doesn't have to do anything on this trip. He only needs to suppress the officials in Jiangnan to achieve the goal. What kind of temper is the Prince Jin? Knowing that he was in charge of the emperor's life, he said one, who dared to say two, who dared to perfunctory things that he asked people to investigate thoroughly, and that Prince Jin had countless wealth and beauty, and no one could buy him. , he has nothing to do with all parties in the DPRK and China, and in the view of the minister, even if this matter has nothing to do with his prince, there is no more suitable person than Prince Jin when it comes to business affairs."

The words are so straightforward, and the truth is so, that people are speechless.

Prince Jin's temper, leading the emperor is almost equivalent to taking the sword of Shangfang that did not exist in the Qiyuan Dynasty. It is definitely not for fun, and he is a prince, and if he kills you, he will also kill you. , what else can you do to him? When you get to hell, you will have nowhere to go.

But that's exactly what happened. If he was appointed as the imperial envoy, then Jiangnan would definitely be shaken this time. I don't know how many people would die. There would definitely be more people who would be pulled off their horses. All parties would suffer heavy losses. This is definitely not someone. Those who want to see it, they are racking their brains to stop it, but they can't find a suitable reason.

"Your Majesty, this minister agrees." Luo Peishan was the first to stand up, and then many others expressed their second opinion.

Looking at Emperor Lecheng's expression, it seems to be very moving. There is no doubt that there is no more suitable candidate than this son. As for worrying that he will take the opportunity to seize power and buy people's hearts, he only needs to let people who are completely loyal to him walk along, and all problems will not be problems. Emperor Lecheng secretly said for a second. "Does anyone else have a suitable person to recommend?"

Is this basically agreeing with Lord Shoufu's proposal? !

Opposition, reasons and candidates, both are indispensable, but no one has done it, and he can only recognize it with his nose. As a result, more and more people agreed that at this time, it was only to leave a bad impression in front of the Holy Master, and they still wanted to mix up.

"You guys, have you asked this king's opinion?" Li Hongyuan said very uncomfortably when he saw almost everyone agreeing.

This time, almost everyone was choking, but soon, many people also showed joy in their hearts, who can stop this matter, probably only the righteous master, if he doesn't do it, even if it is Tie him to Jiangnan, as long as he doesn't do anything, or do something else, it will only have the opposite effect.

Emperor Lecheng wanted to get off the dragon chair and kill the evil barrier, but he also knew that the evil barrier's temper was really twisted, he really couldn't take him, he breathed out, "Liu Liu, you really don't want to. To solve the problems for the father and emperor? This time, as Ruan Aiqing said, there is no need for you to do anything, as long as it is appropriate to take charge of the overall situation and let the people below do things seriously, you should go to Jiangnan to play, what do you think?"

Li Hongyuan frowned. Although he doesn't eat soft or hard most of the time, he occasionally eats soft, but never hard. "Others, Erchen has the final say?"

Emperor Lecheng's brows jumped, "Within a reasonable range." If he really let him go, he still didn't know what he could do.

"Why is it reasonable?" Li Hongyuan asked tirelessly.

Emperor Lecheng is irritable, other sons will not be so troublesome to do errands, understand it by yourself, do you understand? But what can be done, this evil obstacle is what he favored. "Beyond business, you can eat, drink, and have fun. If others don't provoke you, you just don't want to cause trouble at will. To be more careful, you are not a three-year-old."

"Understood, if there is nothing else, Erchen will retire first. When to leave, just tell Erchen."

"Go away, go away." Emperor Lecheng waved his hand weakly. Sometimes he wanted to ask what he had done.

Li Hongyuan rolled away numbly.

The imperial envoy has been decided, and the next is the main entourage.

Li Hongyuan is just a mascot, and these talents are the most important. However, because the mascot can't be provoked and the lethality is too great, this candidate should be chosen carefully.

Emperor Lecheng didn't bother to argue with them anymore.

With a wave, only the most suitable personnel are selected, that is to say, no matter who is doing the work for, but the scandal of Emperor Lecheng is also mentioned in the front, if the Prince Jin does it because of a serious business, he will not only not try it as appropriate, but will also be guilty Plus three, if the circumstances are serious, the whole door will be raided. In order to be more intimidating, he even ordered the fifty black-clothed guards to accompany him secretly, and absolutely execute the orders of Prince Jin.

The black-clothed guard, the eagle dog that belongs to the emperor, only obeys orders, has super-strong execution ability, ruthless means, and kills people like numbness.

People who were still careful and wanted to plan something, their enthusiasm was reduced by 90% at once, and the remaining 10% either ignored Li Hongyuan or was lucky.

Luo Peishan is good at this kind of thing. Anyway, it is not the first time, and he will not consider any factors other than the ability to do things. Anyway, these people, no matter how much they jump, they will not be The opponents of his grandson-in-law are courting death themselves, not him.

Emperor Lecheng asked several other ministers to make supplements, and quickly settled the personnel. In the end, "the commander of the Imperial Forest Army will accompany him and be solely responsible for the safety of Prince Jin."

Someone else put wax on Emperor Lecheng. Are you sending someone to monitor him, or are you sending someone to help him unconditionally?

The matter is urgent and cannot be delayed for too long, otherwise, I don’t know what will happen, so the preparation time is only three days.

On the way back to Li Hongyuan's house, Jingwan was also dealing with something.

Poetry and song Fu four people, Qi Qi begged her to "find the marriage".

It's not surprising that Jingwan arrives. As someone who lives next to the King of Hell, it's not surprising that he has the courage to seek "true love". After he knew that these people were not from Li Hongyuan, he also expected this moment, but, Four together? One by one, it also gave her a buffer time.

"Why don't you wait for the lord to come back and ask him how he is?" She made a decision as a general servant girl. In the end, it was Li Hongyuan's personal servant girl, so she had to ask him personally. Nothing else, just respect, that's all.

"Princess, for such trivial matters, you can just nod your head. The lord will not object to your decision."

That's right, that person doesn't care about these things at all. "Since that's the case, I don't want to force it. You should call people to have a look with me. Although the time you have served me is short, you are also based on love and fate. If you don't say you have eyes for you, at least you should beat me. Knock and make them treat you better in the future."

"Thank you, princess."

Jingwan chuckled lightly, "Why do you need to say thank you? It's the people around me and the lord. Although I don't have any skills, at least the people around me should take good care of them. It's just that you are not too young to be in a hurry, so you can take your time. , you can also make good handover with Meilan, Zhuju and the others, they don't understand a lot, you should teach them more."

"Princess, there's actually nothing to hand over. After this month, it's almost over, and the marriage can't be postponed..." Qing Shi's face was red, and her hands were placed on her lower abdomen intentionally or unintentionally. This kind of thing is really true It's embarrassing enough, but he was very happy, and Qing Shi himself gradually fell in love with him.

Jing Wan was a little stunned, should it be said that it is indeed the "Prince Jin style", is it quite sturdy? Qing Shi looked calm and measured, but she is now pregnant out of wedlock!

Even if it is spread, it is probably nothing, but it is affecting the reputation, is it really good?

"Your lord knows about your affairs?" Jingwan thought about it and felt that if someone didn't know, they probably wouldn't have the guts, but, as a girl's family, how could they do such a thing for no reason? Now, it looks like all four of them... can't be someone who asked them to look for it, right?

Unexpectedly, Jing Wan accidentally discovered the truth.

"Know."

"Okay, I won't ask any more questions. In that case, you can get married with peace of mind. If there is anything, I will ask them to find you. Hey, no, when I don't know, you will quietly put your hands on it. The matter has been handed over, are you thinking of getting married early in the morning?" Jingwan teased.

"Princess forgiveness."

"Happy things, what's the crime?"

Jingwan sent them away and started to "settle accounts" with her own maid, and co-authored them all without telling them.

In fact, Jingwan's people didn't think about "seizing power" at first, but just because of their own shortcomings, they studied with all their strength. Who knows what the result will be after a month.

It's over, what more can be said.

Li Hongyuan returned to the palace, minus Jingwan, and arrived, "Wanwan, the emperor ordered me to be an imperial envoy and told people to pack up and go to Jiangnan."

The matter was too sudden, Jingwan was stunned, and then nodded, "Okay, does the lord have anything special to bring, I will ask someone to prepare it, so as not to miss it."

"What do you need to bring? Besides you, what else?" Li Hongyuan rubbed her cheek affectionately with his hand.

"Me too?" Jing Wan was surprised.

"Didn't I tell you, is there anything else in the past two days? I forgot it so soon? Or, you don't really like it?"

"I like it, of course I like it!"
