Chapter 35 Pull in
Author: Huatang Embroidery Pavilion
What's the secret reprimand of this person is quite penetrating.
The eldest prince finally came to his senses from waves of sudden attacks, looked up at Pei Yao with an ugly expression.
"Brother, are there any misunderstandings among them? Although the prince of the Jiang family is a playboy, he doesn't look like a very evil person."
As Emperor Chengjing's own son, the eldest prince knew his father's temperament very well.
It was because of the suffering in the past, so after Emperor Chengjing ascended the throne, he tried his best to compensate his mother, Concubine Jiang.
But the son wanted to support his parents but the parents were not there, so Emperor Chengjing put all his filial piety on the Jiang family.
Although the emperor was far away, he didn't have much contact with him on weekdays, and even when no one mentioned it, he couldn't remember the man named Changyuhou, but on the day of the concubine's death, he would think of the Jiang family and give him a reward.
This is also why the Jiang family was so domineering in Zhongzhou. Although it was once a year, it was a holy grace after all, and many people never had it in their lifetime.
And it is precisely because I know the special position of the Jiang family in Emperor Chengjing's heart that how could the eldest prince dare to touch the Jiang family?
Isn’t this a way to make trouble for Emperor Chengjing?
However, Qian Jiangbai was a smart man and did not give the eldest prince a chance to continue talking. He immediately stood in front of Pei Yao and bowed.
"The crimes of this memorial submitted by the Crown Prince are slandering the Jiang family. Many people have witnessed and documented, and your highness does not believe it, so you can check it!"
After he finished speaking, the eldest prince next to him looked a little ugly, and he forced himself to hold back the words behind him.
But he naturally didn't want to get involved in this mess, so he started to let go of it again.
"Brother, the Jiang family is a lord after all. You have to ask your father what he meant when investigating. We are here to investigate the case. Is it inappropriate to suddenly interfere in other matters?"
After he finished speaking, he winked at Wei Changsong beside him.
The latter immediately stepped forward.
"Your Highness, I think what the eldest prince said is reasonable. I should report this matter to the emperor first and then make a statement. If the things written in the memorial are all truthful, why did Lord Qian not treat Changyuhou Mansion earlier?
Should we investigate and punish the crime or report it to the emperor?”
After a moment of remark, he pointed the finger at Qian Jiangbai again, causing trouble to the east.
However, since Qian Jiangbai has stood up, he must be prepared.
He immediately thumped and knelt down in front of Pei Yao.
"Your Highness, I am guilty. As the parents of Zhongzhou, I should indeed think about the people and punish evil and promote good. However, the Changyu Marquis' Mansion has always been domineering. The Crown Prince Jiang Shixuan said yesterday that I would like to Changyu.
Hou is not worthy of carrying shoes, which shows how he always keeps going, how dare I check it out!"
"And the things that the Jiang family has done have been hidden. I have also submitted a memorial, but I have not received any response. I think that the memorial may not have come to the emperor. If I hadn't thought about this time, His Highness, the eldest prince, and all the great masters, Nan.
I am going to seek justice for the people of Zhongzhou in person. I will never dare to secretly search for evidence of the Changyu Marquis’s Mansion and report to Your Highness!”
When he said this, Qian Jiangbai was snot and tears. He apologized and complained, and he looked like he had endured for many years.
At this time, Zhang Zonghe immediately stood up to help him.
"Your Highness, I think that even if Lord Qian is a crime, I dare to stand up and point out the sins of the Jiang family, which is considered a redeemable sin. However, if the Jiang family does not punish it, it may have damaged the prestige of the court.
It is a detriment to the emperor's face. After all, the Jiang family is so rampant that they can be regarded as royal relatives!"
Qian Jiangbai also kowtowed immediately.
"Your Highness, I will never refuse to die. I just hope that your highness can make the decision for the people of Zhongzhou. The Wang family in the case of substituting the case of this scientific examination was also involved with Changyu Hou Mansion and curry favor with Changyu Hou many times. Perhaps this case also had a lot of conspiracy with Changyu Hou.
The mansion is related!"
Having said that, the eldest prince and his ministers all looked very bad.
But now that things have come to this point, if the eldest prince does not express his opinion, it will indeed seem too conceal, indecisive, and despise the law.
After all, he just swears that the emperor has violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people.
So only then did I calm down and speak.
"Brother, I never thought that the Changyu Marquis Mansion would let down my father's grace. According to my opinion, I might as well report this to Kyoto in advance, here in Zhongzhou, the Changyu Marquis Mansion will be banned first, and then the money will be given.
The magistrate will atone for his merits and lead people to investigate thoroughly."
After all, he was definitely unwilling to get involved in this hot potato, so he threw the matter to Qian Jiangbai.
Pei Yao looked thoughtful and nodded for a while.
"Okay, but this matter is only handed over to Lord Qian alone. It's not safe. I came to investigate the scientific investigation case this time on the order of my father. I really can't get rid of it. It's better to do this than the Changyu Hou Mansion.
Let Lord Qian check it out and you can check it. It will be convenient. Gu believes in your ability and will not disappoint Gu."
Since he wanted to pull the eldest prince in, he would not easily break free.
At this time, the eldest prince wanted to struggle, but Hong Zheng spoke out in time to remind him that the Lu Ming Banquet had begun and the students had already entered the venue. Pei Yao ignored them and stood up straight.
And after a sudden bombardment this morning, the eldest prince is now in no mood to attend the so-called Lu Ming Banquet and has no intention of staring at Pei Yao.
Of course, I didn't care whether Pei Yao was the same as before, and he showed his face and stepped down.
So after this banquet, the eldest prince was in a bad state.
He was thinking about how to report this to Emperor Chengjing, but he was afraid that Emperor Chengjing would blame him for attacking the Jiang family, and he was afraid that he would be suspected of covering up and ruining his reputation.
Pei Yao is different. He is relaxed and wanders among many students. He also found several very good qualifications, which made people secretly record them.
Wait for the banquet to end.
The eldest prince used the excuse to investigate the affairs of Changyu Marquis' Mansion, but did not go back to his residence with Pei Yao, but instead found a teahouse to discuss matters with several ministers under his command.
The final result of the discussion was that the Jiang family's chess piece was not important, it would be fine if it was lost.
On Emperor Chengjing, as long as the eldest prince blindly said it, it was the prince's idea, and he just did things with the laws of the Great Qi according to his instructions.
Although it may make Emperor Chengjing unhappy, Pei Yao was the one who offended Emperor Chengjing the most.
And if Emperor Chengjing was dissatisfied with the Jiang family and ordered punishment directly without showing mercy, it would be even better. It would be better if he destroyed his relatives for justice and was upright.
Is it Qian Jiangbai? I have to stare at it.
It was obvious that he was a person under Pei Yao's command.
The eldest prince heard the words of the ministers, his head was so swollen that it hurt. He couldn't help but think of his mother, Li.
As long as there is any problem, the mother can point out the problem to him and explain the solution clearly.
It is so many times better than these ministers who have been chatting about a plan after a long time of discussing a plan.
