: Absent-minded
As the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from their belly, so joys and sorrows are naturally different.
Living in this mansion, Pei Yao was in peace, but the eldest prince started a fuss.
"Your Highness, the old minister is just such a grandson, and he is the only seed of the Jiang family. If something happens to him, how can the old minister explain to his ancestors!"
The Changyuhou, whose hair was completely white, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the eldest prince, crying bitterly.
Although he is the eldest prince’s uncle and grandfather, there is actually no relationship between the two.
This is even the first time we have met again.
And to be precise, he has to be separated by a layer and called his uncle and grandfather.
But when facing this elder whom I had never met, the eldest prince could not ignore it, and at this moment he could only patiently comfort him.
"Get up first, this matter has come to the prince. I have no choice. Let me think about it."
However, Chang Yuhou was not satisfied with the plan he gave and cried again.
"But your Highness, the prince has ordered someone to put Xuan'er in the jail of the yamen. The heat is unbearable now. How can Xuan'er stay in such a pickled place? At least I beg your Highness to do it and get him out of the first place.
After being rescued from prison, the old minister immediately went to the door to apologize to the Crown Prince and Fang Liangdi!"
The eldest prince is not a patient person, especially the Jiang family, who has no feelings for him, so his expression suddenly became dark.
"Although the Marquis is far away from the officialdom, don't you understand these rules and etiquette? Who is the prince? You can meet him as soon as you want? You also came to apologize. He showed mercy before he killed Jiang Shixuan directly!"
With such a bad tone, Chang Yuhou was not a fool. Hearing the eldest prince's impatientness, he immediately put away his tears and did not dare to say anything again.
Seeing that he was quite tactful, the eldest prince then restrained his temper.
"Okay, it's getting late, so you go back first, and I will naturally find a way to save people."
Hou Changyu stood up tremblingly and saluted the eldest prince.
"The old minister, Xie, helped you to save me. I'm sorry, these things are the little intention of the old minister, so I'd like to accept them."
As he said that, he took out a wooden box from his arms and handed it on.
The eldest prince glanced at it and his expression calmed down.
"Don't worry, Marquis, the prince is also my cousin, so he will do his best."
Hearing the change of the eldest prince's tone, Chang Yuhou pulled out a smile that was even worse than crying on his old face, and hurriedly bowed, and was led down by the eunuch.
After he left, the eldest prince opened the wooden box and saw a thick stack of silver notes inside.
After giving a look, the servant next to him immediately came forward to count.
"When you go back to Your Highness, there are a total of 50,000 taels of silver bills."
"Fifty thousand taels?" The eldest prince narrowed his eyes, "The Jiang family is willing to pay for the money, and there is really a money to pay for."
The eunuch who counted the silver bills did not say anything. After a while, the eldest prince said lightly.
"I'll go to Qian Zhizhou's mansion tomorrow, and my cousin still needs to take care of him."
"Slaves obey the order."
The eunuch bowed and retreated silently.
The next day, the deer dances.
The eldest prince who woke up early was refreshed.
According to the previous plan, Pei Yao would be a puppet, sway around in front of the students, and then sit upright on the platform. Next, he and the ministers would meet the students.
This is a good opportunity for him to show his face to establish his authority, establish respect for the wise and the wise, and desire the image of the talents.
Thinking of this in my mind, the matter of the Jiang family was put aside last night. I used two more bowls of breakfast and had a good appetite.
However, as soon as he arrived at the manor where the Luming Banquet was held, he couldn't laugh after seeing Pei Yao.
In the side hall of the manor, Pei Yao sat upright in the main seat with a solemn expression.
Standing on his left was the prefect of Zhongzhou Qian Jiangbai, and on the other side were several ministers from Kyoto.
When the eldest prince came in, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.
He was busy and gave his subordinates a wink to his subordinates. Wei Changsong, the Grand Secretary of Wenhua Palace.
The latter understood and immediately stepped forward to politely.
"The palace is down. Today, Lord Qian reported some things about the Jiang family of Changyu Hou Mansion. His Royal Highness is discussing with ministers and others."
When he heard that it was about the Jiang family, the eldest prince thought it was Jiang Shixuan's incident that collided with Pei Yao and Fang Xuan, so his expression immediately relaxed for two minutes.
After all, he was prepared and had already thought about how to deal with it.
So at this moment, he looked at Pei Yao and bowed his hand.
"I already know the story of Changyu Hou Prince colliding with the emperor's brother and Fang Liangdi yesterday. Jiang Shixuan is indeed too unreasonable. He dares to do such a presumptuous thing. He must teach him a lesson!"
After he finished speaking, Wei Changsong frowned and was about to make a reminder.
However, Pei Yao spoke first and said in a dilemma.
"But count it all, Chang Yuhou is the uncle of his father and your uncle and grandfather, and he is also the lonely uncle and grandfather. The prince is also the lonely brother. Why is he punished so much? But if he doesn't punish him yesterday
The restaurant is so big that it is so royal."
He seemed to be unable to make a decision when he wanted to speak but stopped.
The eldest prince immediately acted like he was killing his relatives for justice and bowed seriously.
"Brother, the emperor is still guilty of the same crime as the common people. Although Jiang Shixuan did not hurt anyone, he despised the royal family and acted rampantly and could not stand his eyes. He should be punished according to the law!"
Although the eldest prince is so scary about the list of these crimes, it is actually irrelevant to take it out and look at it.
If you really follow the rules, you will just be greeted by a board.
It can be said that the thunder is loud and the rain is small.
However, since Pei Yao took it out and said, he naturally dug a hole and waited for him to jump, so when he finished speaking, he nodded immediately in agreement.
"What a great emperor has committed the same crime as the common people. For my brother, I only care about family affection and forgot the law. Since that's the case, the Jiang family must investigate and deal with it according to the Daqi Law. Zecheng, let me leave this matter to you
Let's do it."
The eldest prince was a little confused about how he had to investigate the Jiang family for the crime of collision?
He realized it later and found something was wrong.
But when he looked at the staff member for inquiring, Pei Yao, who was in charge, had already spoken again.
"Last night, Jiang Shixuan ran into Gu in a restaurant. His arrogant and arrogant attitude and arrogant words made Gu feel that he must have bullied many good people all day long, but because he was going to hold a Lu Ming Banquet today, he did not check it out carefully.
But early this morning, Qian Zhizhou handed the note to the orphan. Every piece of the matter was the crime committed by the Jiang family in Zhongzhou and even in the Jiangnan area over the years!”
As soon as he said this, the eldest prince was completely stunned. This completely caught him off guard.
He had never expected Pei Yao to suddenly attack the Jiang family. The Jiang family was obviously just an idle nobleman without real power.
But not only did Pei Yao take action, but what else was he saying just now and asked him to investigate?
While the eldest prince was brainstorming, Pei Yao's men made efforts again.
"This Jiang family is so inappropriate. They relied on the emperor's favor and acted recklessly. All kinds of crimes are too numerous to be written, and they are really unforgivable!"
