Chapter 279 Reward and Punishment (Part 2)
Chapter 279: Do not distinguish between rewards and punishments (Part 2)
The weather in the capital was already very hot in May, but Yinzuo's heart was a little chilled, and he was not at peace. He was just waiting for the audience outside the study room to see him. Even Yinzuo couldn't tell whether the sweat was hot or held back. But no matter what, he was always a little embarrassed, right? Fortunately, Yinzuo was calm, at least his expression was still calm.
It was not difficult to settle Zhao Shenqiao. Yinzuo just mentioned it a little, and Zhao Shenqiao took all the charges with wise voices. Because he had personal grudges with Cheng and Qian, he used revenge and framed the court officials. The difficulty was how to convince the old man. Zhao Shenqiao's confession and the two privately hidden ban books were mixed into Cheng. The confession of the soldiers in Shanpu camp framed by Qian and the two men looked like the same thing and could be justified. But it was impossible to hide it from the old man Kangxi. Although Yinzuo did his homework in advance, he repeatedly deduced the possible reactions of the old man and his brothers with the two major advisers, and he also had a way to deal with it, but the deduction was just a deduction. After all, it was just a deduction. What would happen, especially how the old man would deal with it. Yinzuo was still not very confident. He was sweating all over.
Just as Yinzuo was waiting for a little anxious, the eunuch of the Sili Li Dequan hurried out and said with a smile: "Prince Xuanyi, the emperor, met with him."
Is it finally going to start? Well, I just bet this time. Yinzuo adjusted his mentality and smiled and said, "I'm a good father-in-law." He adjusted his court clothes and strode into the study room.
Perhaps because of the hot weather today, Mr. Kangxi was wearing only a bright yellow dress, with a slightly flushed face, and a faint smile on his face. He was writing quickly. It was not like he was criticizing memorials, but like he was practicing calligraphy. The old man listened to Yinzuo's footsteps, and he didn't raise his head, and kept writing. Li Guangdi, the minister on duty, stood by, with an awkward look on his face, looking like he had just been scolded by the old man.
"My son bowed to the emperor." Yinzuo did not dare to observe much, and then went into the study and fell to the ground.
Old Master Kangxi didn't raise his head, but just said, "Forgive me, Xiao Liu'er, you are so anxious to see me, what's wrong?"
"When I say to Emperor Ama, I will investigate and investigate the case of Zhao Shenqiao falsely accusing the minister. Hong Fu, who entrusted Emperor Ama, the case has been solved. I have this chapter here. Please take a look at it." Yinzuo took out a note from his sleeve and raised his hands high above his head.
"Huh?" Old Master Kangxi was obviously stunned. The case was solved in just three days since the incident occurred. This was too fast. Old Master Kangxi's eyes flashed with suspicion. He looked at Yinzuo for a while before waved his hand and signaled Li Dequan to come up and take over the memorial from Yinzuo.
Mr. Kangxi looked at the memorial seriously, and his already flushed face became redder. He obviously did not believe the nonsense in Yinzuo's memorial, but it did not happen on the spot. After reading it, he threw the memorial on the dragon table and stared at Yinzuo with bright eyes without saying a word.
Alas, the old man is really not easy to cheat, mom, I knew that this would be the result. Yinzuo saw that the old man Kangxi's face turned red, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He knew that the worst result might be about to happen. Although he had already had a solution to it, he was still invulnerable to panic in his heart. He relied on his scheming and calmed down and had no expression on his face.
"That's it?" After a long time, the flush on the face of Mr. Kangxi's face faded away, and he asked with a faint look.
"Return to the words of Emperor Ama, the result of the review of the son-in-law is like this, the son-in-law..." Yinzuo answered calmly, but Old Master Kangxi waved his hand impatiently to interrupt Yinzuo's defense and said lightly: "It's enough, I know everything, you can go back."
What? Go back? What is the old man trying to do? Yinzuo was a little dizzy. The big article prepared in advance was useless. The old man didn't even give him a chance to defend himself. This was completely beyond Yinzuo's expectations. But the old man had already spoken and would not be able to leave. He had no choice but to kowtow a few times and said, "Yes, Emperor Ah, my son-in-law will take his leave."
After Yinzuo left the study room, Mr. Kangxi stared at the memorial on the dragon table. After a long time of speech, he thought silently. He smiled suddenly, with bitterness in his smile. He glanced at Li Guangdi, who was standing aside uneasy, and said lightly: "Rongcun, since you have always spoken good things for Fang Linggao, I want to meet this 'the No. 1 talented man in Jiangnan', and passed an edict to exempt Fang Linggao from being guilty and go to the study room to meet him."
For more than half a month, Li Guangdi has been in contact with Fang Linggao's affairs. He has also been many times in the face of the old man. Before Yinzuo came in, he was scolded by the old man for this matter. At this moment, he suddenly heard that the old man opened his mouth. The excitement in his heart suddenly came to express his words and knelt down and said, "The emperor is wise, the emperor is wise, Fang Linggao is the pillar of the country. I should celebrate this talent for the court. I thank the Lord Long's kindness..." Li Guangdi was excited and couldn't help but speak incoherently, but the excitement that Fang Linggao could finally be appreciated by the old man Kangxi could not hide it.
Li Guangdi has no relatives with Fang Linggao, and he cannot be said to be a good friend of his master and apprentice. However, Li Guangdi has always appreciated Fang Linggao's talents and cannot bear such a talent to be killed. Mr. Kangxi knew this in his mind. He wanted to lose his head for a major case of rebellion. The reason why the old man never punished Li Guangdi for this was because Li Guangdi's entourage was not selfish, otherwise Li Guangdi would not have enough to cut off. Mr. Kangxi smiled and waved his hand to stop Li Guangdi's flattery, and then said: "Transfer my order, Dai Mingshi was crazy and said irresistible, and Lingchi was executed and executed and destroyed the nine clans; Zhao Shenqiao falsely accused the ministers, and his crimes were unforgivable. He thought that his past achievements were reduced to one level, and he was executed immediately; all the rest of the people involved in the case were questioned, and they were either involved or laboured to their own lives."
Mr. Kangxi's edict was already magnanimous. Although he was not a small number of murders, the nature of this case was already very lighter than the case of "History of Ming Dynasty". Li Guangdi couldn't help but look at Yinzuo's ability in his heart, and determined that the reason why Mr. Kangxi was lenient in this case was entirely due to Yinzuo's efforts. When he was secretly cheering for Yinzuo, Mr. Kangxi issued an order, but Li Guangdi's hand that swung his pen and wrote a quick-speaking hand, and almost destroyed the edict. Prince Yi Yinzuo was idle, so he was free from his mission in the Ministry of Works and took the turn in the study.
This decree is extraordinary. If the court officials can take turns to the study room, it will be to criticize the minister and become the central government of the dynasty. But the princes are different. The princes are all in the office, and they are all responsible for real power. They rely on the strength in their hands. Those destiny are symbols of strength. The princes without destiny is like a tiger without tooth. Even the prince is just an idle prince. As for the princess entering the study room, it sounds nice, but in fact it is just an upward and downfall in secret. Especially Yinzuo has made many great contributions and has just solved the big case, he actually got such a result. This made Li Guangdi feel a little panicked, and he looked at Mr. Kangxi in a daze, and forgot to write a cursive edict for a while.
The old man Kangxi's face was faint and had no expression. He looked at Li Guang and said, "Just write that, just write an edict after using the seal."
Li Guangdi opened and closed his mouth a few times, trying to slow down Yinzuo's cheeks, but at the end he still didn't say anything. He lowered his head and waved his pen to write quickly. The eunuch of the Sili Li Li used the seal. Mr. Kangxi glanced briefly and waved to Li Dequan to send the imperial edict. Li Guangdi finally plucked up the courage and said boldly: "Master, Prince Yi has made many extraordinary achievements, this..."
Old Master Kangxi waved his hand in vain and said, "Rongcun, you don't understand this, I'm doing it for his own good." As soon as he finished speaking, he ignored Li Guangdi and went to the backyard of the palace on his own.
Li Guangdi did not understand the intention of Mr. Kangxi, but Yinzuo knew very well. The old man in front of him did not give Yinzuo any chance to defend himself, but in the end he still made a decision according to Wu and Lin's original plan. Seeing that the dawn was right in front of him, Yinzuo could not be excited. After fighting for so long, he finally got the first move in the siege of his brothers. This was a big victory. Of course, Yinzuo also understood in his heart that the subsequent struggle would be even more cruel. If he was not careful, the second brothers' fate was a lesson for the past. The courtiers might not be able to guess the old man's thoughts, but those princes would not be confused by appearances, at least they would not be confused for too long. Once all the princes join forces again and deal with Yinzuo like the second brothers, the fun would be great. Can it be done without being careful?
