[Rebirth] Chronicle of the Two Capitals

A lot of things happen as they happen. You can't treat it as if it doesn't exist, or force yourself not to think about it.The state of mind is empty, the feeling is empty, and the emotion is empty. If it is transformed into something real and sensible, it is behavior.

Since he never came back from the Yang Palace that day, Tang Yu tried his best to reduce the number of times he went there. The reason why he said as much as possible was because the Queen Mother was ill, and she was not very relieved.She went over and greeted her as if nothing had happened. Although it was autumn, the Forbidden Palace had not yet reached the time to supply earth dragon charcoal fire. The cold was not cold, but it was not hot after all. Can be so nervous that my palms sweat.

No matter how good an acting skill is, there will always be times when it fails, and the queen mother is so sensitive, she is terrified, and she is terrified that the queen mother will see what she thinks in her heart. At that time, how should she treat herself?The child who was raised by one hand, but fell in love with her, would be disappointed, feel guilty, and would treat her as a scourge and avoid her?

Judging others by oneself is an extremely one-sided behavior. People are creatures who can't even grasp their own minds. How can they guess other people's inner world?Tang Zhi never made such a mistake in her previous life, but now she has fallen into a predicament that she made up by herself, thinking of the worst in everything, and blindly cocooning herself.

"Your Majesty's complexion has been very bad for the past few days, did you not rest well at night?" Qing Dai said cautiously.It's not just a bad complexion, she was turning over the collar for Tang Yu, and looked at the thick black under her eyes, for fear that the emperor's poor service would make her ill, and none of the palace officials in the Xuanshi Palace escaped punishment. Taking the lead naturally takes the heaviest responsibility.

Chi Zai presented the jade pendant decorated with golden clouds and dragon patterns and the palace maid beside him, and said anxiously: "A few palace maids who are in charge of the bedroom are lazy?" The expression is not right, more worried than Qingdai, she simply shirks responsibility first.

Preoccupied, tossing and turning, unable to sleep for a long time.

Reluctantly, Tang Yan regained his spirits and looked at himself in the bronze mirror in front of him. There were eight chapters of black clothes, four chapters of clothes, and twelve chapters of emperor's mianfu.She is an emperor, she is a king, there are not emperors who violated human relations in history, but they are not wise kings because of their licentiousness, even the history of officials and unofficials has their bad records, does she want to imitate them?

A Niang taught her to cultivate herself and rule others for the emperor since she was a child. Is this how she cultivates herself and governs others to repay her kindness of nurturing?

Feeling disgusted, Tang Yu quickly moved his gaze away from the bronze mirror, unwilling to take another look at himself.She turned her head a lot, and the maid who fastened the twelve crowns and red tassels barely scratched her chin. Her skin was delicate and fair, and a red mark appeared there soon.

Gong'e knelt down in a panic to plead guilty, and kowtowed.

Looking at the red seal, Qing Dai blurted out: "I'm going to pay my respects now, Your Highness needs to consult me." She was very worried, her complexion was pale, her eyes were dark circles and the red mark, how could she escape the Queen Mother's eyes?

Tang Yuyuan had walked out several steps, but when he heard the sound, he stopped abruptly and said decisively: "The court affairs are heavy, so today will not pass, and send someone to Weiyang Palace to report."

Chi Zai and Qing Dai looked at each other in blank dismay: Don't you want to go today?

Since the Empress Dowager recovered from the cold, the emperor even forgot to say hello in the morning and evening, and always excused himself from the heavy court affairs.Is the court affairs really onerous?In the past, it was not so easy. The emperor still found time to happily accompany the queen mother. Why is it so recently?It can't be that the mother and daughter are at odds with each other.

Regardless of whether it is heavy or not, a major event really happened in the early court.

Yan Ling submitted a memorial, which was a detailed case of tax reduction and exemption. The counties involved were either barren or disaster-stricken, the treasury was full, and the emperor ruled benevolently. Reconstruction of safe houses, in order to make the people have no worries, has also been included in the list of tax reductions and exemptions.

Chi Zai presented the memorial to Tang Yu with both hands, she took it, and before she opened it, she suddenly heard the commotion outside the hall, and then, a servant came in with a panicked look, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he walked towards Chi Zai, listening said something.Chi Zai's expression changed slightly, and his eyes rolled quickly, as if he was thinking about the relationship between this matter and should report it immediately.

In an instant, he had a decision.Chi Zai walked forward quickly, and reported to Tang Yu in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Liu Ju, the supervisory censor, was attacked in Yongzhou and was seriously injured. He was rescued and still alive."

Chi Zai's voice was not loud, but everyone held their breaths and concentrated, and they could hear clearly in the silence.The whole hall was in an uproar!

Some of the courtiers were irritable, and immediately started whispering to each other.The censor who is sent to patrol the various states and places will personally receive the holy order, and there must be officials to receive and escort him wherever he goes. How can he be attacked?Yongzhou is very close to Yanjing, and it is not a place where grassroots bandits roam. Attacking the supervisory censor appointed by the emperor is the same crime as attacking the emperor. Who is so bold and what is their intention?

A little shock and anger flashed in Tang Yu's eyes, but he soon calmed down, and asked in a deep voice, "Who saved him? Call him here quickly." Sure enough, as she thought, something really happened to Liu Ju .Although she was busy that day, she had a lot of free time afterwards, but she forgot all about it, and was disturbed by private affairs, which was really wrong.

Chi Zai took the order and went away. People were waiting outside the hall, and came in very quickly, even wearing court clothes.Tang Yu carefully identified him, but he couldn't recognize which official he was. Looking at his clothes, he knew that he was a low-level official who was not even qualified to come to the imperial court.

"Your Majesty, I will refer to your majesty in Shanglinyuan's book of Zhonggu." It was the first time he met the saint, and in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, but Zhonggu acted naturally, advancing and retreating politely.Seeing this, everyone expected that once this matter is over, this person will be promoted and reused.

Shanglinyuan is the royal imperial garden in the Qin and Han Dynasties. The royal imperial garden in this dynasty follows the ancient name. The official office that manages the imperial garden is the supervisor of Shanglinyuan, and the Shanglinyuan Dianbo is a small official of the ninth rank.

"No need to be too polite, how is Liu Qing?"

Zhong Gu paused when he heard the words. From the details, one can see the character of a person. The emperor calmly asked about such a major event as an official ordered by the court. When he opened his mouth, he cared about the safety of his subjects rather than the ins and outs of the matter. No wonder Liu Ju was loyal to the master.

Zhong Gu replied: "Liu Yushi's life is safe, and he is now taking care of his wife and children at the residence of the minister." Personal care.In addition, he did not intend to show credit for his words, but just told the truth in a flat manner to reassure the emperor, which shows his sincerity.

Then, Zhong Gu told the story.

Zhong Gu's family was poor, and his salary was low. After having children, life became more and more difficult, and he almost cried with his wife Niu Yi.In order to save money for the family, his wife often went to the suburbs of Beijing to pick herbs and sell them to drugstores for money.

Yesterday, the wife took her daughter to pick herbs, and saw a person vaguely hidden in the grass, she pushed the grass away, and the bloody man fell to the ground, unconscious.His wife checked his breath to know that he was still alive, so she hurriedly took out some medicinal herbs to stop bleeding from the basket, chewed them up and applied them on the wound. The daughter hurried to tell Zhong Gu.

Zhong Gu carries the man back to his residence and asks a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. That night, the man wakes up. After the two talk, the man entrusts Zhong Gu with his trust and tells all about his identity and why he was attacked.

When Zhong Gu said this, he was filled with righteous indignation: "Your Majesty, Qin Mi, the governor of Yongzhou, deceived his superiors and his subordinates. Liu Yushi inspected and found out that he was greedy for ink. He refused to accept bribes and refused to join forces. He was intercepted and killed by his hired bandits! Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly. , Get rid of this cancer!"

Corruption of ink is a felony, what's more?If Zhong Gu's words are true, the chief envoy will inevitably die, and his family members will also be punished.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were either angry or rejoicing or sighing, only one person had a different expression.

Wang Boyuan glanced at Zhong Gu, his brows furrowed tightly, and then glanced at Tang Yun, his brows furrowed even deeper.Suddenly one of the colleagues pushed his elbow and asked, "Wang Shangshu, Qin Mi seems to be your distant cousin?"

This man is so ignorant!

It was raining all night, and the hall was silent. Everyone looked at Wang Boyuan when they heard the sound. Wang Boyuan secretly kept the appearance of this colleague in his heart, adjusted his facial expression, looked around, and said calmly: "What about my cousin? Before the law, no matter how close you are or how close you are, it's a matter of righteousness, and I can break it off with a clean slate." How could relatives just say goodbye, and everyone laughed it off.

Now is the time to play tricks?Tang Xi only glanced at him, without thinking too much, and immediately arranged everything.First, Liu Shi was settled, and soldiers and medical officers were sent there, and then Yongzhou was ordered to punish Qin Mi and send Qin Mi to Beijing immediately.Then, the Ministry of Criminal Justice investigates the case, and the Dali Temple decides the case. When the facts of the case are clear, everything will be clear.

The corruption of ink was not uncommon in the past, only this time Tang Yi handled it in an orderly manner, there was almost no room for Xiao Shen, Su Xie and others to intervene.The two prime ministers looked at each other and smiled, the young master has grown up and matured, and he is becoming more and more responsible. If there is no military chaos and coup, the pro-government will be smooth in two years.

But Wang Boyuan saw that the courtiers who were leading away were not his cronies and cronies, and he suddenly became anxious.Just now that colleague was right, but he was also wrong, Qin Mi is not his distant cousin, but a close cousin!

Two days ago, this guy even sent someone to give gifts. There are often greetings from relatives, so he didn't think it was surprising, so he accepted the gift.It was only when the corruption incident was exposed that he realized that Qin Mi acted like this because he wanted something from him, not to mention the softness of others, this gift has already become a hot potato, and it is the best tool for political opponents to attack him.

More importantly, Wang Boyuan has a very good face. He is the only official in the family who holds a high position. Relatives near and far praise him for his promise and ask him for everything.If this cousin sacrificed his life because of this, how could he hold his head up in front of others?How to mediate this matter, Wang Boyuan went down to court, and immediately racked his brains.

Yongzhou is close, and it will take a few days' journey. Although Qin Mi has not been escorted, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple have already started the preliminary work of investigating the case.During this period, various affairs in the court did not stop. Tang Yu still handled government affairs with the assistance of several Gu Ming ministers, and transferred Zhong Gu's household registration from the household department to check to confirm his innocence. He moved to the Metropolitan Procuratorate as the censor.

Get busy and really put the troubled things behind you.

On this day, Tang Yu went to visit Liu Ju in person. Liu Ju had survived several wounds, and his injuries had not recovered.Condescendingly chatting with him in the small and simple room, the injured and sick need to take care of themselves and avoid trouble. She only asks him about the customs of Yongzhou, does not involve political affairs, and is very considerate of the ministers.

In order to keep him safe, after a short chat, Tang Yu moved back to the palace.Maybe it's cold, maybe she's tired all day long, maybe she's depressed and unresolved, stepping into Xuanshi Hall, she sneezes several times, so startled that Qingdai hurriedly invites the doctor.The doctor is asking for the pulse, and if he feels the wind and cold, he will prescribe the right medicine.

The illness came like a mountain, the dinner was barely taken, and the spirit was weak, and even the imperial pen and the memorabilia could not be seen.In the end, Tang Yu had no choice but to take the medicine, lay down on the couch, and wanted to take a nap, before going to sleep, he told Chi Zai and Qing Dai not to tell the Queen Mother.

Chi Zai and Qing Dai listened to her cold and stern voice, and now they only regarded her as a sick little tiger, and obeyed obediently. When I left the palace, I saw that it was not the queen mother who was walking in the night.

Chi Zai and Qing Dai tacitly said: "Where is the quarrel between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor? I'm afraid the Emperor himself is making some troubles. It's enough for the mother to coax her. If it's not good, just scold her."
