Accompanied by Luan Yiwei's loud order to whip the whip, the clean whip nearly ten feet long rang three times, and all the officials filed into the Hall of Supreme Harmony in order, lined up on both sides according to their ranks, There is only peace and solemnity in the hall.
Except for the first time to be qualified to go to court, and to come to this court meeting with great interest, Yinqi has never come to this kind of content that is almost useless, but for the big guys to get together A one-day ceremonial court meeting at Gemao Station.It's just that this time it's really a serious matter, and it's the case he presides over, so I have to come here for reasons of reason and reason, and he and Yinzhen are both princes, so they have to stand at the end. In the front, don't even think about taking the opportunity to doze off, and can only wait for the lengthy court ceremony to proceed step by step.
I don't know what Gao Shiqi told Huang Ama, but in the routine report, he really skipped the item of reporting the results of the provincial examinations by the provinces.Seeing everyone rushing over thousands of miles, meticulously preparing the memorial, and even the master Xuezheng who had already cleared his voice, stared at Liang Jiugong blankly and resentfully, but Yin Qi felt guilty for no reason, and was planning to go back He stepped back half an inch without any trace, but suddenly heard the fourth brother's soft call.Subconsciously raised his head, only to realize that it was time to report to work by himself.
"I report to Emperor Ama, this time I have been appointed as an inspection tour of the examination hall, and I have a report on the case of cheating in the Shandong provincial examination."
Realizing that it was time for him to go on stage, Yin Qi hurriedly collected his extra thoughts, stepped out of the shift and leaned over to say something.To say that Gao Shiqi's excerpts are indeed well-written and well-organized, but just to make up for the scene, he stuffed in a lot of thought-provoking and in-depth analysis, and discussed the fraud in great detail from the perspectives of examinees, culture, education, and government officials. Harm, the ex-science tyrant who couldn't make up [-] words for his argumentative essay just felt ashamed, and secretly planned to go back and give Mr. Gao a red envelope, which could be regarded as the manuscript fee for writing this notebook.
As expected of being a seasoned hand at drafting excerpts, Gao Shiqi estimated the length of the script very accurately. He read a long and eloquent excerpt word for word, and it really took him over two quarters of an hour to stop.Yin Qi accepted the note, and ordered his subordinates to escort the detained officials of Shandong Province Xuezheng and other academic officials involved in fraud, and Lang San, who specializes in this "imperial examination business", to the hall, and then leaned over and said loudly: "Huang Ama , Talent is the foundation of a country, and the imperial examination is the right way to select officials. These people colluded with officials and businessmen to sell the imperial examination questions and the number of candidates as rare commodities with marked prices, and they were executed according to the law. And because their crimes are too obvious , so he was escorted back to Beijing and sentenced to a special trial in the imperial court."
This was already a solid case, the stolen goods were seized and the evidence was complete, and it was brought out only to frighten the courtiers, even the officials who had no brains, would never dare to jump out and say something ironic at this time.Hearing the angry crusade from all the people in the court, Kangxi's eyes paused for a moment on the eighth elder brother who bowed his head, and then turned to the flushed tenth elder brother: "Old ten, do you have anything to say? ?”
Looking at this son who is not very bright when he hits a child, Kangxi is also seven points angry and three points helpless. The anger about this fraud case is second to none, and the more is the intolerance and hatred for this son. Unable to make steel——Old Eight did go too far this time, he must personally beat him to be vigilant, but this Old Ten actually believed everything without knowing any doubts, and devoted himself to his life for others, but It's really too disappointing.
"Returning to Huang Ama, one person does things and one person is in charge. If the son does something wrong, he will admit it. There is nothing to say."
As if trying to prove his thoughts, Elder Brother Shi replied forcefully, kowtowed his head when he got out of work, then knelt on the ground and continued: "My son lost his mind for a while and sold the exam questions and rankings. It's my son's fault." But this matter was arranged by my son from the beginning to the end. Xuezheng has been covered by my family for generations, and Lang San is a collateral branch of the Niu Yulu clan. A discerning person should be able to see the way, there is no need Then try to get involved with others."
Looking at this son who is still protecting Lao Ba wholeheartedly at this point, Kangxi only felt a wave of unknown anger rising in his chest, and he was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry for a while: "You idiot, when will you grow up?" Be smart! You said nothing to say, but when I saw it, it was clear that I had something to say...Since you really think so, I will do what you want—take the ten elder brothers to the shell, and hand it over Fifty boards will be given by the Ministry of Punishment, and they will be escorted to the clan's residence to reflect on me!"
There was a moment of silence in the court, and the courtiers looked at each other, and for a while they couldn't figure out whether they should plead for mercy - after all, Brother Shi's trouble this time was obviously too big, and there was no room for half-divorce. Happy to admit it.No matter what, the crimes of those corrupt officials who have just finished their speeches are extremely heinous. If they speak for Brother Shi again, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face by themselves...
Yin'e Geng didn't speak on the ground, but his heart was still a little weak.This punishment was much heavier than he thought, but it was not so severe that he couldn't bear it. He wanted to justify a few words, but he was worried that it would be detrimental to myna's plan.Subconsciously, I looked back at Brother Ba, only to see that the man was standing silently with lowered eyes, without even giving him half of his gaze, suddenly some inexplicable grievances rose up in his chest, he gritted his teeth and knocked on the ground: " My son has nothing to say, so I can punish my son as Huang Ama wants to be punished!"
On the dragon chair of the Golden Luan Hall, the people in the lobby could clearly see what actions they were making, and Kangxi naturally noticed the son's little actions.Following his line of sight, looking at the eighth elder brother who seemed to be standing as if he had nothing to do with himself, the chill in his heart became more and more serious, and he couldn't help but said in a slightly lower voice: "Yin Hu, Lao Shi has nothing to say, so do you also have nothing to say?"
"Return to Emperor Ama, son—I have something to say."
What surprised him was that Yinhu actually came out of the class and responded slowly, then knelt down and kowtowed: "I want to join three people, so I ask the emperor Ama Ronger to say something."
Unexpectedly, at this time, he would still want to participate, Kangxi raised his eyebrows slightly, and simply showed [-]% patience, looking at this son who had been a stranger since who knows when, and said in a low voice: "Say it, Zhen I really want to hear who you plan to join."
"The first person I want to take part in is He Zhuo, the former chief examiner of the Shandong provincial examination. Why don't you see this person, but the court's law is above, and the scholars are eagerly looking forward to it, this person's crime is not too much, no matter what, he can't escape death."
His move came too suddenly, not to mention Kangxi above, and even Yinqi who was standing below almost couldn't react for a while-He Zhuo didn't bet on it, naturally he was waiting to give this eighth elder brother a fatal blow Yes, but now Lao Ba actually came out and read one of his books by himself, and he said it so righteously, that he was already charged with death.If you have to talk about He Zhuo's assassination again at this juncture, it's really boring, and it's easy to bring serious issues to Ninggu Pagoda, so it's better not to say more.
After making up his mind to press the matter down for the time being, Yinqi looked up at his royal Ama, but happened to catch up with Kangxi and also looked over here.Seeing the same bewildered son pursing his lips and expressing helplessness towards him, a fleeting helpless smile flashed in Kangxi's eyes, and his depressed and austere mood was slightly relieved.Looking at the eighth elder brother who was kneeling at the bottom, he said noncommittally: "I see——there are two more people?"
"Hui Huang Ama, the second person, the minister wants to participate is the minister himself."
Seeing the movements of Huang Ama and Fifth Brother vaguely, Yinhu secretly broke out in a cold sweat.He knew that He Zhuo was escorted back together, and just now seeing that he was not escorted to the hall together, he already guessed that he must have committed some more important matter.If he hadn't followed that person's idea, I'm afraid he would have been settled by Qiuhou long ago.
Seeing that this idea is really effective, Yinhu no longer looked forward and backward, and simply said the following: "He Zhuo is my minister's servant, and if he commits such a despicable act, my minister will also be negligent. Sin. The tenth brother has always been on good terms with the son-in-law, but the son-in-law has never advised the tenth brother to do this thing, and there is also the fault of lax discipline."
As soon as he said this, the old ten who was kneeling next to him was filled with emotion and guilt again, watching him choked up and called out: "Brother!"
Yinhu smiled faintly at him, then knocked his head on the ground again, gritted his teeth and said loudly: "My younger brother did something wrong, it's naturally the elder brother's fault. Erchen, please take the fifty punishments for the tenth brother , I also hope that Huang Ama will be fulfilled!"
"Brother, you can't do it!"
Yin'e yelled in a hurry, tears were streaming down, she walked forward a few steps on hands and feet and kowtowed heavily: "Huang Ama, this is all the son's fault, the son knows that he is in trouble What are you doing, don't blame others!"
Kangxi looked at this earth-shattering brotherhood with a sinking face, and felt uncomfortable as if his chest had been loosened just now, as if a stone had been stalked.Subconsciously clenched the armrest of the dragon chair, his deep eyes fell on the old eight with unknown meaning, and after a long silence, he said in a low voice: "How can there be any reason for substitute punishment? Since the old ten said that one person does things and one person is responsible , then tell him to do it in front of himself—you want to join three people, and who is the other one?"
Seeing that everything went smoothly as expected, Yinhu finally let go of his last doubts, and said in a low voice: "The third person my son wants to join is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
As soon as he said this, the entire court was shocked into an uproar, and Kangxi was so angry that his face turned red, and he slapped the armrest suddenly and said: "Presumptuous! Yinhu, the courage given to you, dare to do this without a father!" No words from the king!"
"I don't dare to talk nonsense! Huang Ama Mingcha, Shandong Xuezheng Qian Xueming has no talent and learning, not enough to take up the post of education and politics. He just bought an official from His Royal Highness, and he got it without Huang Ama's review. Approval from the Ministry of Officials!"
Yinhu fell on the ground and spoke loudly, his heart was pounding with nervousness, but his face was still full of loyalty and loyalty: "My son thought that if we made a mistake, we should find the root cause, but the root cause of this case is not It’s not on the tenth brother alone! In the past, Mingzhu’s betrayal of officials made many lives miserable, and the tragedy is still vivid in my mind, now it’s only been ten years, how can the trend of betraying officials again!”
"Brother is right!" Elder Brother Ten, who was kneeling beside him, suddenly regained his spirits. He poked his neck and smiled at the prince who had been standing beside Huang Ama calmly, "Second brother prince, I dare not blame you for my mistake." Yes, do you dare?"
Kangxi was trembling with anger, his chest heaved rapidly, but for a while he couldn't even utter a word.After a while, he looked at the prince beside him again, and said in a hoarse voice with difficulty: "Prince... do you have anything to say?"
The prince didn't even look at him, he just straightened his sleeves and Shi Shiran walked down the hall, when he suddenly lifted his foot and kicked the eighth elder brother to the ground.Turning around and taking a step forward to kneel down, the movement was so strict and respectful that he hadn't done it for a long time: "Huhuang Ama, my son is guilty."
When these four words were put down lightly and delicately, all the officials in the court almost shivered in shock—what is going on today?How come one pleaded guilty and the other came up, as if he was afraid that he would not be punished enough, and there was not even one who had something to say?Even their prince, who wished to be unlucky for anyone, turned into a soft persimmon that others could participate in whenever they wanted?
When it came to this trouble, Kangxi gradually calmed down and didn't speak, but stared deeply at this son who had been alienated for too long physically and mentally.In fact, he already knew about the prince's betrayal of an official - or the prince had no intention of hiding it at all.Over the years, he watched the child he carefully cultivated in the past staggered forward step by step according to his expectations, and he also watched him fall, go wrong, and return to the original right path with difficulty time and time again, but time and time again Deviated from the direction again, and finally drifted away from the end of that road.
Obviously——back then, he would forget to sleep and eat because of his work in the country, and he even broke his stomach without knowing it.He will humbly ask for advice and strive to make progress, and everyone inside and outside the court is full of praise... When did he become like this without knowing it?
I had already vaguely expected this result in my heart, but I didn't feel any surprise until now, it just seemed to be empty, and I was flustered and uncomfortable.Kangxi condescendingly looked down at his son who was kneeling on the ground in the hall, feeling that his heart was very stuffy, but he didn't have the heart to say anything more, he just sighed very softly: "Country country, first country, then country. Family. I know that in your hearts, there are too many people who may have forgotten that they are still courtiers of the Qing Dynasty. They only know about self-interest, favoritism, and endless intrigue and fighting..."
Hearing the emperor's almost disheartened voice, all the officials below were also shocked and fearful, bowing their heads to the mountain and shouting long live.Seeing the seriousness in the eyes of his royal Ama, Yinqi pursed his lips and subconsciously wanted to go up, but was held back by his fourth brother. Before he could react, he was dragged to kneel on the ground together, followed by everyone The courtiers fell to the ground together.
"Five, get up, if I can have any comfort now, it will only be on you..."
Kangxi had already seen the little actions of the two brothers, Wen Sheng said something to Yinqi, and then walked down with Liang Jiugong's support, and helped the son up.Yin Qi lightly held the cold and trembling hand of his Royal Ama, only to feel that his heart was also very uncomfortable, so he pursed his lips and called out in a low voice: "Huang Ama..."
"Some people say that I only have too much favor for this one son."
Kangxi patted the son's arm lightly, turned around to face the officials kneeling on the ground, and said slowly in a low voice: "When you are doing those shameful things out of selfishness, this son of mine My son devoted himself to staying in Zhili, the dignified prince brother, rolled up his sleeves and went to farm like those poor people, just to spread potatoes to the state capitals. If there were no potatoes to save lives in the last locust disaster, what you have to deal with is This empty national treasury, and tens of thousands of refugees forced by famine. When you are trying to get in each other's way and use tricks, it is my son who is alone in the capital to support the crisis, forcibly relying on only three people The team survived that plague. There were only three people, the old one, the young one, the young one. Today Wenxian is not here, but Hengchen should also remember how difficult and terrified you were at that time, Even I dare not think deeply about it.”
"Your Majesty..." Zhang Tingyu took two steps forward on his knees, choked up so that he could not speak.Kangxi nodded slightly at him, then looked at the ministers who were kneeling on the ground in front of him, and after a long silence, he said slowly: "Yesterday, when Prince Heng came back from below, the people of Zhili stopped the way to give them grain and rice. I called the Imperial Dining Room It has been boiled into multigrain porridge. You can use a bowl for each of you, taste the grain mixed with the people's sincere gratitude for their closeness, and the porridge you make will be different."
After saying that, he made a gesture to Liang Jiugong, and then walked slowly back with Yinqi's support.Liang Jiugong hurriedly took a step forward, cleared his throat, and shouted to the silent hall: "Back to court—"
Lord Long Live left after leaving such a sentence, but none of the courtiers dared to go back. They gathered together in twos and threes to wait for the bowl of the legendary Wanmin porridge, and couldn't help but wonder in a low voice what it would be like today. Which one is sung.The prince brushed off his robe and stood up as if nothing had happened, walked up to the eighth elder brother with a half-smile, looked at the younger brother who had been fighting with him for so many years, moved closer and lowered his voice: "Look at your uncertain face , are you still wondering if I am the same as last time, and I still have any backhands? Don’t worry—I don’t have any backhands this time, and I will tell you to abolish me smoothly. "
"Prince——" the eighth elder brother was startled, subconsciously called out, and took two steps back vigilantly, "Prince, please be careful when speaking in public..."
"Dare to do it but dare not admit it, why did our Aixinjueluo family produce such a coward like you."
The prince sneered, then raised the corners of his lips lightly, and then continued in a low voice mysteriously: "You did a good job, today's forced palace with the intention of retreating, you did it really beautifully, and Huang Ama half choked." I can’t even utter a word. But do you know—the person who abolished me will bear the anger of Huang Ama?”
Yinhu's face turned pale suddenly, and the concealed joy that he had forced himself to suppress because of today's great success was as if he had been handed a basin of ice water, and there was a bone-chilling chill from head to toe. He reluctantly lowered his head and forced a smile: "Prince What His Highness said...is nothing more than betraying an official, at most it is just reprimand and punishment, how could it reach such a level..."
"That's not important, I'll let it go to that point—and I'll give you all the credit for this journey."
The prince smiled faintly, hugged the younger brother's shoulders as if affectionately, and whispered in his ear: "You don't know Huang Ama very well——the old man really wanted to destroy me long ago, but he didn't want to I'm willing, that's why I've been stuck in this position until now. But it's also because he's not willing, so the person who really clicks on this cannon will bear all his unwillingness, all regrets, all anger, and all the killing intent..."
Looking at Yinhu's pale face that was almost transparent, the prince raised his eyebrows slightly as if he was amused, and raised his hand to pat his face lightly: "Old Ba, thank you for playing with me for so long. No matter how hard you work, you will play with me for the last time, and then—you can be buried with me."
Except for the first time to be qualified to go to court, and to come to this court meeting with great interest, Yinqi has never come to this kind of content that is almost useless, but for the big guys to get together A one-day ceremonial court meeting at Gemao Station.It's just that this time it's really a serious matter, and it's the case he presides over, so I have to come here for reasons of reason and reason, and he and Yinzhen are both princes, so they have to stand at the end.

I had already vaguely expected this result in my heart, but I didn't feel any surprise until now, it just seemed to be empty, and I was flustered and uncomfortable.Kangxi condescendingly looked down at his son who was kneeling on the ground in the hall, feeling that his heart was very stuffy, but he didn't have the heart to say anything more, he just sighed very softly: "Country country, first country, then country. Family. I know that in your hearts, there are too many people who may have forgotten that they are still courtiers of the Qing Dynasty. They only know about self-interest, favoritism, and endless intrigue and fighting..."
Hearing the emperor's almost disheartened voice, all the officials below were also shocked and fearful, bowing their heads to the mountain and shouting long live.Seeing the seriousness in the eyes of his royal Ama, Yinqi pursed his lips and subconsciously wanted to go up, but was held back by his fourth brother. Before he could react, he was dragged to kneel on the ground together, followed by everyone The courtiers fell to the ground together.
"Five, get up, if I can have any comfort now, it will only be on you..."
Kangxi had already seen the little actions of the two brothers, Wen Sheng said something to Yinqi, and then walked down with Liang Jiugong's support, and helped the son up.Yin Qi lightly held the cold and trembling hand of his Royal Ama, only to feel that his heart was also very uncomfortable, so he pursed his lips and called out in a low voice: "Huang Ama..."
"Some people say that I only have too much favor for this one son."
Kangxi patted the son's arm lightly, turned around to face the officials kneeling on the ground, and said slowly in a low voice: "When you are doing those shameful things out of selfishness, this son of mine My son devoted himself to staying in Zhili, the dignified prince brother, rolled up his sleeves and went to farm like those poor people, just to spread potatoes to the state capitals. If there were no potatoes to save lives in the last locust disaster, what you have to deal with is This empty national treasury, and tens of thousands of refugees forced by famine. When you are trying to get in each other's way and use tricks, it is my son who is alone in the capital to support the crisis, forcibly relying on only three people The team survived that plague. There were only three people, the old one, the young one, the young one. Today Wenxian is not here, but Hengchen should also remember how difficult and terrified you were at that time, Even I dare not think deeply about it.”
"Your Majesty..." Zhang Tingyu took two steps forward on his knees, choked up so that he could not speak.Kangxi nodded slightly at him, then looked at the ministers who were kneeling on the ground in front of him, and after a long silence, he said slowly: "Yesterday, when Prince Heng came back from below, the people of Zhili stopped the way to give them grain and rice. I called the Imperial Dining Room It has been boiled into multigrain porridge. You can use a bowl for each of you, taste the grain mixed with the people's sincere gratitude for their closeness, and the porridge you make will be different."
After saying that, he made a gesture to Liang Jiugong, and then walked slowly back with Yinqi's support.Liang Jiugong hurriedly took a step forward, cleared his throat, and shouted to the silent hall: "Back to court—"
Lord Long Live left after leaving such a sentence, but none of the courtiers dared to go back. They gathered together in twos and threes to wait for the bowl of the legendary Wanmin porridge, and couldn't help but wonder in a low voice what it would be like today. Which one is sung.The prince brushed off his robe and stood up as if nothing had happened, walked up to the eighth elder brother with a half-smile, looked at the younger brother who had been fighting with him for so many years, moved closer and lowered his voice: "Look at your uncertain face , are you still wondering if I am the same as last time, and I still have any backhands? Don’t worry—I don’t have any backhands this time, and I will tell you to abolish me smoothly. "
"Prince——" the eighth elder brother was startled, subconsciously called out, and took two steps back vigilantly, "Prince, please be careful when speaking in public..."
"Dare to do it but dare not admit it, why did our Aixinjueluo family produce such a coward like you."
The prince sneered, then raised the corners of his lips lightly, and then continued in a low voice mysteriously: "You did a good job, today's forced palace with the intention of retreating, you did it really beautifully, and Huang Ama half choked." I can’t even utter a word. But do you know—the person who abolished me will bear the anger of Huang Ama?”
Yinhu's face turned pale suddenly, and the concealed joy that he had forced himself to suppress because of today's great success was as if he had been handed a basin of ice water, and there was a bone-chilling chill from head to toe. He reluctantly lowered his head and forced a smile: "Prince What His Highness said...is nothing more than betraying an official, at most it is just reprimand and punishment, how could it reach such a level..."
"That's not important, I'll let it go to that point—and I'll give you all the credit for this journey."
The prince smiled faintly, hugged the younger brother's shoulders as if affectionately, and whispered in his ear: "You don't know Huang Ama very well——the old man really wanted to destroy me long ago, but he didn't want to I'm willing, that's why I've been stuck in this position until now. But it's also because he's not willing, so the person who really clicks on this cannon will bear all his unwillingness, all regrets, all anger, and all the killing intent..."
Looking at Yinhu's pale face that was almost transparent, the prince raised his eyebrows slightly as if he was amused, and raised his hand to pat his face lightly: "Old Ba, thank you for playing with me for so long. No matter how hard you work, you will play with me for the last time, and then—you can be buried with me."
