Linzhi Gongzi [Red Mansion]

How legendary the stone Buddha is, and what kind of auspicious luck it symbolizes, is of no use to Emperor Yongjia.In his opinion, an extremely improbable thing suddenly appeared in the palace—the prince coveted the beauty of a woman, pretended to be a public servant for personal gain, and bullied the weak and sent Jing Zhaoyin to carry out persecution.

Concubine Wang Xian, who practiced self-cultivation in the Pearl Mirror Palace, suddenly beat to death a palace maid early this morning, and then tortured several palace servants with a cane.There was an uproar in the whole harem.At this time, benevolence is spoken, even if the servants who died in the palace think about it a lot.But it's extremely rare for something like this to happen on the bright side.

Sure enough, after getting the news, the Empress immediately went to ask why Zhujing Palace was so inhumane.

About half an hour later, Zhang Baoshou saw a former imperial eunuch poking his head outside, so he went to ask in person.When he came back again, he brought a very embarrassing news to the emperor.

"Where did you say that?" Emperor Yongjia was slightly annoyed.

Zhang Baoshou raised his eyebrows, "It is said that Concubine Xian went to the small Buddhist hall in the palace to chant scriptures early in the morning, and heard that palace lady gossiping with others about this matter. In a rage, she killed the palace lady with a stick."

Emperor Yongjia dropped the imperial pen in his hand, stood up, and shouted: "Go to Zhujing Palace!"

When Fang came to the Pearl Mirror Palace, he saw Concubine Wang Xian kneeling in front of the queen, crying with tears all over her face, "I would like to follow His Majesty's will and pray to the Buddha to cultivate my heart. It is an unforgivable crime to commit such a murder in front of the Buddha. The concubine knows that the crime is serious and is willing to accept the punishment. But the empress...

If this kind of thing spreads from my palace, His Highness the Crown Prince will think that Liu'er is disrespectful to him.However, they are brothers after all, and there is still a chance to explain clearly.But if it spreads to the outside world and spreads the word, causing His Highness the crown prince's majesty to be damaged, that would be a great sin!It doesn't matter how the courtiers and concubines are, but such rumors must not be spread!Please also ask the empress to observe the night in the palace! "

What she said was sincere, she had a loving mother's heart, and she also had a deep understanding of righteousness.Emperor Yongjia suppressed his anger and stepped into the main hall.

"Have you carefully asked where these words came from?"

Concubine Wang Xian knelt on the ground, showing a look of fear and panic, "I was already frightened when I heard that. I was in a hurry, so I forgot to ask."

The queen still kept the look of keeping everything out of sight, and after hearing such an excuse, she finally said, "That's death without proof."

Following these words, the hall fell silent, and Emperor Yongjia's expression was unpredictable.Concubine Xian said badly in her heart.When the queen spoke like this, it was very likely that the major incident would be reduced to a minor one.Not only will the prince's case not cause trouble, but she will also have an unkind name for harshly criticizing the servants.In the end, it was really just that she was punished by the Pearl Mirror Palace, and nothing happened to the prince.

How could this be so!

Concubine Xian immediately said: "This matter will affect the reputation of the East Palace. Whether it is true or not, please ask His Royal Highness to confront that family in the palace."

After finishing speaking, he deliberately laughed again, "I believe that with the prince's virtue, this matter must be a rumor released by someone with a heart!"

Before the emperor made a statement, the queen next to her said, "Concubine Xian's words are justified, what does your majesty think?"

Emperor Yongjia was very annoyed now, staring at Concubine Xian at his feet.After a long period of silence, he gritted his teeth and ordered, "Prince Xuan enters the palace!"

Then he looked at the queen again, with a somewhat unpredictable tone, "Ask the third brother to bring the brothers and sisters of the Wen family in too!"

The queen did not change her face, and said: "The daughter of the Wen family is still a girl. No matter whether it is true or not, it is really inappropriate to ask such a question in public. If His Majesty trusts her, you might as well put her here with me."

Emperor Yongjia nodded, regardless of Concubine Xian who was kneeling on the ground, walked out of the Pearl Mirror Palace with a gloomy face.Empress Chi got up after the emperor, and said to Concubine Xian: "You have violated the palace rules by lynching in the palace, so you should be confined in the palace for a month."

When Concubine Xian heard that Emperor Yongjia asked Liang Yu to bring the Wen family into the palace, she already felt a little bad.Fortunately, she and Su Wang had been prepared for a long time, and they responded to the punishment respectfully and respectfully.Seeing that the emperor and empress had gone out, she immediately waved to her confidant behind the door to signal her to report.The maid got the letter and immediately turned around and ran out.

Emperor Yongjia came out of the Pearl Mirror Palace with suppressed anger, and the anger in his chest was hard to dissipate.He ruthlessly broke the branches and leaves at his hand, sneered, and mocked the queen behind him: "This mother and son are really unhappy if they don't make trouble!"

The queen's expression was indifferent, and she only said: "In the end, we must return justice."

"It's fair, hum, it must be true!" The emperor snorted coldly, but he couldn't bear the confidence in his heart.He summoned Zhang Baoshou, "You go to Zhang Min and ask about it."

Zhang Baoshou glanced at Empress Chi calmly, then stooped and ran away.

·

Wen Yishu was chatting with his younger sister at home at this time, smiling as he listened to the interesting stories about the poetry club that day.Hearing that His Royal Highness Zhao Wang was coming, he smiled and looked at his sister.

"I'm about to leave, are you afraid?"

Wen Zhi took a deep breath, "I'm not afraid of anything."

When Wen Yishu came home that day, he suddenly told her that he might have to go to the palace to complain to the emperor in the next few days, and asked his sister if she was afraid.Just hearing this, Wen Zhi was dumbfounded.After confirming again and again that her brother was not joking, she suddenly felt a little funny in her heart.

Shaking his head and sighing, "Brother always likes to make things big. If it weren't for that, he would be unhappy."

"Ha, there are sweets for crying dolls. Don't howl a few times, but I'm sorry for the blood I vomited," Wen Yishu shook the fan in his hand.Then he showed a look of pity, "It's just that the evil ghost in the color can reflect on it for a few days at most. Eat as usual, sleep as usual. Nothing else..."

Wen Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked, "Then what do you want?"

Wanting him to embezzle and steal all the money from his father, and spit it out, Wen Yishu replied in his heart.He just sighed on his face: "Forget it, take it step by step slowly. This time when you enter the palace, you will not be able to see the majesty of the Tian family. If you can raise such a son, I guess a father is also domineering. Are you afraid?"

Wen Zhixin said: I have such an elder brother who dares to slander the current Holy Majesty, what else is there to be afraid of.So he said with a smile: "I am a daughter's family, and even when I get there, I don't have a place to talk. When I ask around, I only ask you. I also want to ask if you are afraid."

Wen Yishu laughed loudly, "Just see if I'm afraid when the time comes."

At this moment, Liang Yu really came to pick him up, Wen Yishu was still indifferent, and Wen Zhi's anxiety disappeared at the end of the day.The two brothers and sisters changed their clothes in the house and went out hand in hand.

Liang Yu always prepared things properly, first he asked Wen Zhi to get into the carriage behind him, and then asked Wen Yishu to get into the same carriage as himself.

He said: "The queen mother will definitely protect your sister by her side, and you don't need to worry about it when you get to the palace later."

Wen Yishu nodded, "That should be the case, I can't let my sister really show her face."

In fact, this is also Liang Yuzang's selfishness.He wanted to ask the queen to meet her after the matter was over by taking Wen Yishu to pick up his younger sister.Everyone else was fine, Liang Yu really wanted his mother to meet his sweetheart.As if this is the only way to achieve Consummation.

I don't know if Wen Yishu has seen his plan.Did he really not notice it, or did he notice it but didn't reject it, just saying it was good.

All the way to the gate of the palace, he happened to bump into Su Wang Liangji face to face.

"Third Brother?" He seemed surprised, "What's the matter?"

Liang Yu just supported Wen Yishu to get out of the car, and replied: "My father asked me to enter the palace."

Liang Ji stared at Wen Yishu's beautiful face in surprise.It wasn't until Wen Yishu glanced at him suddenly that Liang Ji looked away, "It's such a coincidence, I also have something to ask Father, why don't we go together?"

After all, he saw a woman wearing a bamboo hat get out of the carriage behind him, and his heart skipped a beat even more.

"What's wrong?" Liang Yu asked.

Liang Ji hurriedly made a distressed expression, "I don't know what to do, I only heard that the concubine mother was restrained by the queen, so I came here to plead guilty."

As he spoke, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Who is this?"

"He is the son of Wenli, a weaver in Suzhou," Liang Yu said, and wrote to Wen Yi, "Come to meet His Royal Highness King Su."

Wen Yishu took a step forward and saluted, "Caomin has seen His Royal Highness King Su."

"So it's Mr. Wen..." King Su said hello on the face, but his anxiety grew more and more. He didn't know that the Wen family and King Zhao knew each other!Things that were very sure at first, actually don't have so much confidence at this time.But he had no choice but to pretend that he had never contacted Wen's family, and said calmly, "You guys want to enter the palace too? If that's the case, you might as well go together."

Liang Yu saw the people in the Queen's Palace pick up Wen Zhi, so he said to Wen Yishu, "Let's go together."

Wen Yishu naturally agreed, so the three of them went to Hanliang Hall with their own thoughts.

When the three arrived, the prince had already arrived for a while.Hearing the rumors in the palace, he was startled and angry, and naturally shouted for injustice.He also said that those who spread rumors would be severely punished.When he heard that the words came from the Pearl Mirror Palace, he became even more annoyed.

Kneeling on the ground, staring at his eyes, the crown prince cried out, "That's Liang Ji trying to kill me! I also ask father to be the master!"

Emperor Yongjia looked at this crazy-looking son with an indifferent expression and said nothing.When he knew everyone had arrived, he said, "Whether you have been wronged or not, you will find out after asking."

After all, he ordered the left and right to call King Zhao, King Su and Wen Yishu to enter the palace.

After entering the palace, perform the palace ceremony.

Without waiting for Liang Ye to make trouble, Liang Ji knelt down and begged, "I was shocked to hear that my mother and concubine violated the palace rules, so I came here to ask for punishment."

Emperor Yongjia sneered, "Your news is coming soon, your mother violated the palace rules, why are you here asking for punishment?"

Liang Ji didn't change his face, he just said: "Mother and concubine is getting old, she is panicked day and night, and her temper is becoming more and more irritable. This is also the reason why the son-in-law can't take care of her all the time, so I come here to plead guilty."

Before Emperor Yongjia could speak, the prince over there was still furious, "Liang Ji! Why did you harm me!"

"Prince be careful," King Su frowned, but his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, "There is no basis and no evidence, to the extent of harming the name of brothers and sisters, forgive me!"

Liang Ye stared, "You!"

"Presumptuous! I'm not dead yet!" Emperor Yongjia raised his voice and reprimanded, "Since they're all here, let me watch them all!"

After all, he looked at Wen Yishu who had been kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, "The one kneeling down is Wen Li's son."

Wen Yishu originally listened happily to the opera with his ears pricked up, when he heard the emperor calling him, he quickly lowered his head and said, "It's the Caomin."

Emperor Yongjia was sitting on top, seeing him with his head down, he felt a little irritated, and said straightly: "Stand up and raise your head to answer."

After thanking His Majesty, Wen Yishu stood up.When he raised his head, everyone around him was taken aback.This kind of enchanting appearance is really delicate and gorgeous.Just now outside the palace gate, Liang Ji was restless and didn't take a closer look.At this time, under the glorious light in the palace, he couldn't move his eyes.The eyes of the prince on the side became more and more obscure.

Since the elder brother looks like this, how can the younger sister be so bad?

Emperor Yongjia became angry for a while, and believed the rumor even more.

"I'm asking you, the prince sent someone to your house to rape your sister, is there such a thing!"

The prince looked at Emperor Yongjia in disbelief, "Father!"

The emperor ignored him, and still asked Wen Yishu, "Is there such a thing!"

Wen Yishu didn't answer immediately, after waiting for a while, he said: "Go back to Your Majesty, but there is this matter."

King Su on the side breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Emperor Yongjia said coldly: "Think about it, slandering the royal family is a serious crime against the nine clans!"

Wen Yishu's face turned pale at the right time, and he struggled and knelt down, "Cao Minyuan doesn't believe that His Highness the Crown Prince would do such a thing! It's just that the attitude of those three people was arrogant, and when Cao Min refused, they left cruel words Let Caomin and his sister die without a place to die! So Caomin became suspicious and asked his servants to go out with the three of them. Only then did I know that they were really coming to the palace..."

He seemed so resentful that he could hardly speak.

The prince was already flustered at this moment, and still gritted his teeth to argue: "He came to the palace, so he said he was from the East Palace! You troublesome people, you..."

Wen Yishu was disdainful in his heart, and slandered: "It's not yours, is it still the emperor's?"Only the face still pretends to be terrified.Apparently Emperor Yongjia also thought of this, and gave the prince a hard look, "Shut up!"

Su Wang, who was at the side, was proud of himself, and said at the right time: "This matter is really unimaginable, and this cannot be used to determine that the prince has lost his virtue. Since you said that the three people are from the East Palace, do you know the names of the three people?"

Wen Yishu raised his head at this time, with tears in his eyes, he said in a hoarse voice: "The leader claims to be Changfu, and he says he is the most trusted person of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I don't!" The prince finally couldn't bear it anymore, fell to his knees and shouted, "Father! I really don't!"

Emperor Yongjia looked tired, and motioned to the left and right, "Go and check the directory of Prince Zhan Shifu! Go!"

In the dignified atmosphere in the palace, Zhang Baoshou returned from outside the palace.He brought not only the Changfu eunuch who shrank into a ball in fright, but also Zhang Min who personally confirmed that the prince had declared himself into the East Palace, and ordered him to be an embarrassing family.

Emperor Yongjia looked at Changfu with disgust, pointed at him, "Drag him down and kill him." Then he looked at Liang Ye with great disappointment, "You, how could you do such an immoral act!"

"Father! Father!" the crown prince burst into tears, "I am confused! Please spare me once!"

While crying, he saw Wen Yishu, and immediately pointed at him and said, "It's his daughter who doesn't obey women's ways! If his family didn't show their faces in the street, I wouldn't, and I wouldn't..."

"Shut up!" Emperor Yongjia was so angry that he took the inkstone on the table and smashed it down, "Now that things have happened, you still say such things!"

The inkstone hit the floor, and there was a huge shattering sound, which made everyone kneel down in fright, and shouted: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

Emperor Yongjia's lungs were about to explode, and he suddenly turned to Liang Yu, "Since you know him, why didn't you tell me what happened!"

Liang Yu and Wen's family know each other?The prince stared at Liang Yu suddenly, obviously thinking that Liang Yu was the person behind the incident.And after Liang Jizi met the two at the gate of the palace, the feeling of something bad arose in his heart became more and more intense.

I saw Liang Yu frowned slightly, "Before today, my son had never heard of this matter."

"What?!" Emperor Yongjia's expression was extremely strange, "You don't know?"

Liang Yu nodded, "Yes, I don't know about it, and Yi Shu never mentioned it to me."

Emperor Yongjia looked at Wen Yishu coldly, "Why didn't you mention it."

Wen Yishu didn't answer immediately, but after saluting in a standard manner, he said: "Since Caomin met His Highness, he knew that His Highness is a man of glory, love and righteousness. If Caomin tells His Highness about this One side is friendship, and the other side is brotherhood. How does His Highness make a choice, and how does he deal with himself? Caomin couldn’t bear His Highness to suffer from such a choice, so he never said anything."

At this moment, Liang Ji, who had always felt something was wrong, finally realized that everything was waiting for him here. This was not just an arrangement for the prince, but he would also drag himself into the water later!

Sure enough, he heard Emperor Yongjia ask coldly: "Since you never asked Yu'er for help, how did this matter get to the palace?"

This is obviously the crown prince's most concerned issue. After crying for a while, he didn't want to get rid of the crime, but wanted to kill the person who planned this matter.So he stared at Wen Yishu, just waiting for Wen Yishu to tell the person's name.

The young man with extravagant looks first tilted his head in doubt, and then said: "After the incident, the grassroots were terrified and wanted to ask for help. Because they knew the young master of the Rongguo Mansion on weekdays, they wanted to give it a try. But that day Rong The son of the mansion lost his precious jade, the Rong mansion was in a hurry, and the grassroots didn't see it. But by chance, we ran into Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Shibo..."

He paused for a moment and continued: "my late father used to work under Mr. Zhen, and he also made friends with him. So Cao Min informed the matter and asked Shi Bo for help. However, my uncle told me that this matter was extremely difficult because it involved the prince, and the rest did not." Said. Caomin thought that there was no hope for help, so he also left. I don’t want to enter the palace today.”

Zhen Yingjia!

The prince's eyes were wide open, and he thought that he had treated Zhen's family well, but he actually harmed him like this!

Liang Ye couldn't help vomiting blood, and glared at Liang Ji.He also said that since he was talking about this matter in Rongguo Mansion.It must be that after the Rongguo Mansion knew about it, it must have told Liang Ji!Otherwise, how could it be that someone was killed in the Pearl Mirror Palace and a commotion broke out!

The two houses of Zhen and Jia have always been in the same spirit, so they have hooked up a long time ago!

After hearing the ins and outs, Emperor Yongjia couldn't help looking at his three sons, he didn't know whether it was anger or sadness in his eyes.After a long time he sighed: "Okay, he is really my good son..."

He closed his eyes, and said to Wen Yishu: "With your temperament, you really have the strength of your father. You don't care about anything, and you only think about a righteous word. It's his luck that Yu'er knows you."

After all, he waved his hand, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Wen Yishu thanked, and Liang Yu who was at the side immediately came over to help Wen Yishu up.

"Your sister is now in the empress's palace, ask Yu'er to take you there." After half a day, Emperor Yongjia took Yu'er by mouth, obviously very close.Against the backdrop of the other two sons, he was extremely satisfied with Liang Yu.

When Wen Yishu heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he knelt down to thank: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for being the master of the people! Long live your majesty, long live, long live."

Emperor Yongjia nodded and encouraged him a few more words, nothing more than telling him to study hard and serve the country like his father in the future.Then he sent Liang Yu and Wen Yishu away.

He looked at Liang Ji coldly again, "Your concubine mother is cruel and immoral, abused lynching, and didn't take my words seriously. It is already benevolent for the queen to punish her for a month, and there is no need for you to come here to bear any unnecessary responsibilities. Mind your own business and go back!"

Liang Ji gritted his teeth and said he would resign.

Unintentionally, he was put together, and the arrangement of getting himself out afterwards was useless.He was not afraid of Wen Yishu telling about Jia's affairs, his original intention was to drive a wedge between Zhen Yingjia and the crown prince.But King Su never expected that Wen Yishu and Liang Yu knew each other.

After hearing what Yishu said just now, he contrasted himself with a person who would not hesitate to kill his brothers and sisters in order to fight for power and profit.If it hadn't been for this incident, Emperor Yongjia would probably only remember the prince's desolation, lewdness and injustice under his rage.But at the mention of this, the fire of Emperor Yongjia also burned on King Su's head at the same time.Afterwards, if Zhen Yingjia is not fully included in the account, the gain outweighs the loss after today's action, and he will definitely suffer a loss.

As for the prince's stare, King Su didn't pay attention at all.It's just that after going back, I have to work harder.

All the people in the Hanliang Hall left for a while, and Zhang Baoshou, who had been on the run all day, reappeared like a ghost.He came to inform that Chang Fu, the eunuch of the East Palace, had been beaten into a pile of rotten flesh and passed away successfully.

The prince who was kneeling on the ground trembled and lowered his head even lower.

After all the people had left, the prince broke away from the anger, feeling really scared.Liang Ye cared the most about Emperor Yongjia when he was alone.Because the emperor at this time is no longer the king of a country, but a father.What he said at this time was the most true language to Liang Ye as a son.

That was Liang Ye's most important reliance as the prince of a country.

Only Emperor Yongjia's extremely disappointed voice came from above, "Ye'er... how could you do such a thing..."

The prince was startled, and suddenly raised his head to look at Emperor Yongjia.He found that his father seemed to be many years older, and his dignity as the king of a country had been greatly weakened by this disappointment.The pressure he once feared as a monarch's father could not make him fear at this moment.

Liang Ye suddenly realized that this reliance, or this restraint, had begun to loosen.

The author has something to say: the two chapters were written together, and I am too lazy to divide the chapters.
