Chapter seven hundred and forty-eight: the prelude to the king
Chapter 748: Your prelude to you
The next day, there was still a trial. When Chen Ao arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, he was full of attention again.
Judging from this, it may be possible that a prison may rise. Once princes are involved in all dynasties, it will be a great thing to implicate. At that time, all the wealthy scholars and officials, and all the common rule of the world are empty talk. If you have this, you will have no mercy to talk about.
Last night, I don’t know how many people were unable to sleep. When I woke up early in the morning, I asked someone to go to Jingzhao Mansion to inquire. If Yang Zhen took action, it would be just a matter of whether he could become an official. But now, whether he or she is an official is no longer an important matter, but whether he can save his life or not.
Zhang Ming was arraigned and still refused to let go. The judge was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. If the Zhang surnamed Zhang did not speak, the King of Pingxi would not follow him. However, according to their experience, Zhang Ming did not involve others. If he really wanted to be beaten up, the Pingxi throne was of high power and was not afraid. Instead, these judges deserved to be unlucky.
The judge knew in his heart that today was accusation for the tiger, and that sooner or later he would be dealt with.
But when King Pingxi looked here, he could only bite the bullet and continue viciously: "Bold, at this point, you dare to argue? Tell me quickly, who is the person who instructed you?"
Zhang Ming was about to speak, so he might as well sit aside and drink a cup of tea and said arrogantly: "Let's wait."
The judge thought he had said something wrong and immediately turned to Chen Ao. His fierce and evil posture immediately changed into a smile and said, "What are the instructions of the prince?"
Chen Ao frowned and said unhappily: "Zhang Ming has been judging for so long and has not spoken. It seems that he is really confused for a moment. Since this is the case, you judges should handle it impartially. Why do you keep asking questions? Are you going to be a ruling?"
The judge shouted in his heart that he was wronged and must find out that the person instructed behind him was said by you, King Pingxi, and now the blame is said by you, King Pingxi. The east is right and the west is right, but yours is wrong.
Chen Ao continued: "I asked someone to go and investigate last night. This matter has nothing to do with others. However, there is a Duke of Qin who hides Zhang Ming. According to my Song Dynasty, what should I do?"
The judge could not guess Chen Ao's thoughts at this time. He hesitated for a moment and said, "The prince means..."
Chen Ao said sternly: "You are the judge, why do you ask me about this king?"
The judge had no choice but to say: "The Duke of Qin is a prince. The Duke of Qin was afraid that he had just lost his attention for a while and hid the criminal. However, even so, Jingzhao Mansion should not deal with it. You can go to Zongling Mansion to ask Zongling Mansion to make a judgment."
Chen Aohe nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then close the case immediately. What should you do? You can do it yourself. I will enter the palace now."
Chen Ao stood up long, leaving behind a group of stunned people.
After leaving Jingzhao Mansion, Chen Ao sighed and the matter was finally resolved successfully. Not only did he give the civil and military officials of the court a little color, they knew that if anyone dared to fight against Jingzhan, the prince would not be able to protect them. On the other hand, the prince also had an explanation.
In fact, Chen Ao is not unable to make a big deal and involve all the four princes; he is not afraid of any prince; he is just unwilling to leave some regrets in life. Chen Ao has done this kind of thing before, but it depends on how to plant it and who it is. Although some princes are domineering, they will not be guilty of death, and there is no life-and-death conflict with Shen Ao. He first acts as a storm, so that everyone will feel fearful, and then takes it lightly and ends this matter gently. This will not only make people feel fear, but also create a sense of gratitude.
Killing is a means, and killing one's heart is also a means. Even though you can kill you, you suddenly give up your hands. This is both power and virtue. It makes people fear your majesty and be grateful for your virtue. This is the principle of dealing with people and things.
Chen Ao has been in the court for six or seven years. He has now reached his thirty years old. Although he is sometimes reckless in his ways of dealing with things, he has a mature master after recklessness.
Chen Ao did not dare to delay, so he immediately rushed into the palace and went straight to Wenjing Pavilion. When Zhao Ji heard Chen Ao coming, he summoned him thoughtfully and asked, "I heard that Yang Aiqing's affairs involved treason?"
Chen Ao sat down and said with a smile: "Originally, Weichen thought so too. The chief minister was assassinated. If it weren't for the big plan, who would have the courage? Therefore, Weichen did not dare to delay, so he immediately transferred the Martial Arts Captain to get people and asked around. Later, he realized that it was a false alarm."
Zhao Ji was frowning and listened to Chen Ao continue talking.
Chen Ao said: "After the memorials carefully investigated, I realized that Zhang Ming was very bold. Because he hated Lord Yang for resenting his official position, he bribed the ruffian, blocked Lord Yang's way, and beat Lord Yang with no one instructed him. However, because Zhang Ming was kin to Duke Qin and was afraid of people's pursuit, he simply hid in Duke Qin's mansion. Duke Qin was young and had little knowledge of the world. He didn't know that Zhang Ming hid because he committed a case, and finally caused this misunderstanding."
Zhao Ji said: "This matter really has nothing to do with the Duke of Qin?"
The emperor and the prince have always been extremely contradictory. On the one hand, they are blood relatives, breaking the bones and connecting the tendons, but on the other hand, they are natural enemies. What can ordinary people make for rebellion? But the princes are different. They have a lot of influence. If they really make a mistake, they cannot be taken lightly.
The same is true for Zhao Ji. On the one hand, he gave his sons a good life, but on the other hand, he had to be careful when he heard the movements of the wind and waves, and he had to be careful.
Chen Ao thought for a while and said seriously: "It's true that there is nothing to do. Duke Qin is not a cunning person. Even if he assassinated Lord Yang, what benefits can he do?"
Zhao Ji finally let out a long sigh and couldn't help but smile: "It's good that this is good. I don't trust Duke Qin. After all, he is still a child. But he is a little violent. If it is really related to this matter, if I don't punish him seriously, this will be a dereliction of duty as the father."
After Zhao Ji finished speaking, he suddenly said, "What is traveling and getting married?"
Chen Ao was still sitting in a dangerous position at first. When Zhao Ji asked, his chin almost fell off. He couldn't help but feel guilty: "How did Your Majesty know this word?"
Zhao Ji smiled and said, "I didn't know at first, but you went to instigate Ziheng, and Ziheng instigated her confused father again. Now the King of Jin has actually gone to the palace to spread the word and beg the Queen Mother to beg for the favor."
Chen Ao coughed awkwardly and said, "Actually... he was just traveling along the way while getting married. I just thought it out of nowhere, which made Your Majesty laugh."
Zhao Ji smiled bitterly and said, "You think of it randomly, but it has made the palace uneasy. I have never wanted to care about the King of Jin, but it won't work. The Queen Mother said that Ziheng is an active person. It's better to go out for a walk, just send more guards. Didn't you say you want to go to Quanzhou to hold a World Exhibition? I have issued an order to send all countries to know, and then I will take Ziheng to Quanzhou for a trip."
Chen Ao couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty isn't afraid of breaking the rules?"
Zhao Ji's face turned stern and said, "If it's my daughter, of course I can't let you mess around, but what can I do if the King of Jin wants to mess around? I simply respond to him so that I can't get entangled every day."
Chen Ao said embarrassedly: "I just mentioned this, who knew it was so big." Then he said in disappointment: "Your Majesty, a letter has been sent from Quanzhou, saying that the exhibition hall venue has been prepared and all items are ready. Just wait for Your Majesty to choose a day. I think so. This is better this day. Most of the envoys from various countries have already set off, at most half a month, and at least one month, it will be possible to arrive. We can't let them wait in Quanzhou for more. It's better to do it early and let them go back soon."
Zhao Ji nodded and said, "This is a serious matter, how can I be neglected? The date has been set. Just next month, you should go to Quanzhou at the end of the month. My body is getting worse and worse, otherwise I would like to go and have a walk with you." He couldn't help but sigh, a look of gloomy expression appeared on his face, and continued, "A few days ago, Chengdu Mansion presented twelve golden elixirs. After taking it, I felt a little cooler. I turned into an immortal. I don't expect it. I just hope to prolong my life and live a few more years."
Chen Ao vaguely remembers that Zhao Ji's life span was not short in history. Even after the Jingkang Incident, he was captured by the Jin people and lived for many years. Why wasn't he captured, and his health became less and less effective?
Chen Ao knew that the current history had changed its track and many things were unpredictable, so he felt depressed and couldn't help but persuade: "Your Majesty, how many emperors who have ever refined immortal medicines have lived long? This golden elixir is mostly fake, it's just some ordinary medicines. If Your Majesty wants to prolong his life or maintain his body, it's the right thing to do."
Zhao Ji couldn't listen to this. His only hope was that the golden elixir could work. As for what kind of normal method of nourishing the body, where can it have any effect? Just like ordinary people, if you want to nourish the body, you always think that the more expensive the medicinal materials, the better the effect. Therefore, the scarce ginseng, deer antler, Ganoderma lucidum and other objects are very intimate. But while these people are pursuing scarce things, they forget that people live by grains and cereals, and more importantly, they need regular exercise. The result is often not worth the loss.
Chen Ao advised him a few more times, and when Zhao Ji couldn't listen, his eyes turned, and said, "Why not do this for Your Majesty? Anyway, Your Majesty has been idle lately. There is a Cuju competition in the martial arts school every three days. Why not take advantage of this time to go out of the palace to see how Cuju?"
The lieutenant's exercise was boring, so Chen Ao simply held a Cuju competition, once every three days. This Cuju competition was a physical exhaustion, which was good to consume all the energy of these young people, and on the other hand it could also add a bit of entertainment. However, Chen Ao made some modifications to the rules of this Cuju competition, making it more confrontational. Zhao Ji was already a good Cuju competition, which was also a way to let him go out for more walks and strengthen his body.
After hearing this, Zhao Ji was really interested and smiled and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier? The lieutenant is a disciple of the emperor. I should go and see it as my mentor. Since that's the case, when will I ask someone to come to the palace to inform me? Of course I have to go."
Chen Ao laughed and said, "With Your Majesty coming, the lieutenants will definitely work harder when they kick Cuju."
Now the two of them talk like family matters, saying in a mess that the sea and the sky are wide. From national affairs to Cuju, Cuju can also talk about calligraphy and painting, and they are casual and have no concerns about each other. It took a long time before Chen Ao stood up and said goodbye. Zhao Ji was in a surprisingly good mood today, and actually sent Chen Ao out of Wenjing Pavilion.
