Jia Heng suddenly felt a sense of awe in his heart.
He had mistakenly thought that King Qi was a common man before.
"I've been going too smoothly recently, which has given me the characteristic of being self-reliant, resourceful, and looking down on others. But there is no perfect plan. There are many people who are clever but are misled by their cleverness. Those who are good at swimming drown in the water. How many heroes are there?" , even pretending to be crazy and acting stupid can't see through it, King Qi needs to be extra cautious, this is an opponent no less than Yang Guochang." Jia Heng felt vigilant in his heart.
The two kings under the emperor's knees have already established a government to take charge of affairs. This king of Qi is not a fuel-saving lamp, and the second son, king of Chu, is not an easy generation to deal with.
In fact, Jia Heng guessed correctly. When he slapped Jia Zhen in the face for the first time, the King of Chu had already sent people to pay attention to him. Only later, when he saw the spies from Dai Quan's inner factory secretly protecting him, he quietly The person who was staring was removed.
Emperor Chongping, who was born as a concubine, won the throne and became a great treasure. Both of his concubines regarded Emperor Chongping as a role model.
A polite and virtuous corporal, valiant and brave, and a hypocritical idiot with hidden power.
One person learned half of the methods used by Emperor Chongping to seize the throne.
On the other hand, of Queen Song's two sons, one learned to be gloomy and the other learned to be arrogant and domineering.
Emperor Chongping said coldly: "I don't care what you have inside, Sanhe Gang immediately cut off all ties with me! As the prince of the country, Dai Quan, conveying my will, the King of Qi misbehaves and does not know how to behave, so he is demoted to the county prince. , to see the effect, the king was ordered to study behind closed doors and was fined one year's salary."
In this day and age, it is quite reasonable for a father to confer a title to his son, and he really does not need to explain to others.
Upon hearing that he was demoted to a county king, King Qi's face changed drastically, his heart sank, and he cried loudly: "Father, I am wronged. I just want to share my father's worries. I have not been with you since I was a child." I am a mother, and I don’t have the prowess of my father and my second brother. I just want to do something to share my father’s worries..."
"Dai Quan, pull this bastard out and give him twenty lashes with the cane. If he dares to yell again, he will get ten more lashes with the cane!"
King Qi suddenly felt as if someone had strangled his neck. He was dragged out by two internal guards, and then went to fight.
Jia Heng looked indifferent. Hearing the cry from King Qi in the distance, he no longer dared to despise it.
He has a thick face and a dark heart, but looks like a common man on the outside, but inside he is actually an old gangster.
However, Emperor Chongping's demotion was the limit of his disposal.
Again, there really is no equality under the law in this era.
If anyone else, a noble like Jia Zhen, had colluded with thieves and bandits and failed in evil, he would have been stripped of his title and imprisoned.
But if it falls on King Qi, he will at most receive a few words of reprimand.
If others bribed the Sanhe Gang for their own use, even Yang Guochang would be jailed and threatened with death. But if it fell on King Qi, the prince would be demoted to a county king, but it would be extremely painful for King Qi.
"Of course, this has already caused a thorn in the emperor's heart. If he does this a few more times, he will become a commoner because of his stubbornness and stubbornness!"
To put it bluntly, this kind of noble has thick skin and lots of blood, so he cannot be killed at once.
Even he is the same. If he really wants to do something immoral and disrespectful of people's lives, others will impeach him, but he won't be able to stop him for a while.
Of course, he would not seek death.
This is the way of the world, where people are governed, things are done based on people, punishments are not as good as those of officials, the eight opinions are incorporated into the law, and society is governed by people.
Emperor Chongping rubbed his forehead, sighed heavily, and suddenly said: "Ziyu, every family has sutras that are difficult to recite."
Jia Heng's face paused, feeling that these words were difficult to answer. After thinking about it, he sighed and said, "Isn't this the case in Chen's family?"
At this time, we must talk about some of the bad things at home to compare the misfortune. Otherwise, when the emperor looks back on his emotions at this moment, he will feel that he did not dare to express his feelings to his ministers at that time, which would be considered as violating the duty of a monarch and his ministers.
"Oh?" Emperor Chongping frowned and asked, "You said it was Jia Zhen. Jia Zhen is not a virtuous person and is now being arrested by Jingzhao."
Regarding the situation of the Jia family, Emperor Chongping reported it through the internal guards. However, after Jia Heng recently moved to Dongfu, he strictly screened and isolated the servants of the Jia family, coupled with Dai Quan's release.
In fact, Emperor Chongping had been unable to receive too many reports from Jia Heng.
Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, in the home of a century-old prince of the Jia clan, the children are indulged in pleasure and their hearts are corrupt. There are also some elders in the Rong Mansion who are full of strange yin and yang. Last time I went to Cuihua Mountain to suppress bandits, there were curses and poisonous words everywhere in the mansion. Rumor has it that once I leave, I will never return you."
At the end of the sentence, Jia Heng also smiled bitterly.
"Jia She?" Emperor Chongping asked.
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "The holy candle shines thousands of miles away, and you can see into every detail."
Emperor Chongping waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "This is the person who proposed to remove your clan membership last time. If you want to come and act as a monster in the house, except this person, I won't think twice about it."
Jia Heng said: "The old lady of Rongguo is kind to me. If it is not a big right or wrong, something that violates the laws of the country, I will not care about the little gossip."
Emperor Chongping nodded and said approvingly: "A magnanimous attitude is the sign of a famous minister and the demeanor of a general."
"Your Majesty, please praise me." Jia Heng said, cupping his hands.
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and said: "For the King of Qi, come here first. You and Xu Lu will discuss this matter and clear out the Sanhe Gang. Without the constraints of King Qi, I think with the strength of the three of you, we will be here soon." But this will bring a bright future to Dongcheng."
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Emperor Chongping's words at this moment almost made it clear that King Qi's matter has been dealt with, and no more trouble should be made known to the world. After the beating, King Qi did not dare to stand up for the Sanhe Gang anymore, so the rest depended on the three of them. Think about the strategy of security and appeasement, and put an end to the bandits in Dongcheng.
Emperor Chongping muttered: "It is my oral order to give Jia Heng the Shangfang Sword to detect the bandits in Shenjing City, as if I were here in person."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jia Heng said with excitement.
Not long after, there was a eunuch holding a tray with a sword embroidered with a golden dragon scabbard.
"There is no need to rush about the troop deployment. I will give you a verbal instruction." Emperor Chongping picked up the sword and handed it to Jia Heng.
Jia Heng took it with both hands, bowed deeply, and said, "I will live up to the emperor's orders."
"Okay, let's go down and do some errands." Emperor Chongping said with a warm look in his eyes, waving his hand.
Jia Heng bowed again and said, "I take my leave."
After Jia Heng left, Emperor Chongping's face turned gloomy again, and he looked in the direction of Zhonghua Palace.
The King of Qi was so unscrupulous, how could he dare to do so without the protection of the Chonghua Palace!
Kunning Palace
After listening to the palace maid's report, Empress Song's dignified and beautiful face in the Nuan Pavilion showed a hint of surprise and she was speechless for a long time.
The boss was demoted to a county king?
Across the chessboard, Concubine Duanrong, who had a slightly petite face, said softly: "Sister, King Qi has been loved by the Supreme Emperor of Chonghua Palace since he was a child. Your Majesty, he has demoted him now, so that he will not... cause any trouble again." ?”
This noble concubine Duanrong is the sister of Empress Song.
Thinking of the uproar in the palace city caused by the demotion of King Qi, Concubine Duanrong frowned, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of worry appeared on her jade face as crystal clear as snow.
This palace-dressed beauty, who was born to the same mother as the Empress of Song Dynasty, has high temples and a beautiful face. She has a standard melon-seed face. Her makeup is exquisite, and her narrow phoenix eyes are painted with rose-colored eyeshadow. On the earlobes are crescent-shaped jade earrings.
She is tall and slender, actually a bit taller than the Empress of Song Dynasty. She has a slender figure, which is accompanied by music and dancing. She has a waist and hips that are slim and soft.
Empress Song picked up a chess piece with her slender fingers and said: "With your Majesty's mind, I think you have got some ironclad evidence. This morning, Jia Heng hurriedly asked to see you. This person must be the one who made the most of it."
"Jia Heng? This person is..." Concubine Duanrong had doubts in her bright eyes, and she looked a little confused. She was completely unlike a thirty-two-year-old beauty who had given birth to a daughter and a son.
"My sister is unaware of something in the deep palace. Jia Heng is a young nobleman who has gained the respect of His Majesty recently..."
Queen Song put down the chess pieces and spoke slowly.
Hearing this, Imperial Concubine Duanrong showed a hint of surprise and said, "The Jia family has not heard any movement in the court for some years, but I did not expect that such an outstanding young man would catch His Majesty's eye."
Concubine Duanrong sighed casually and said, "It's just that she's not from the Jia family?"
"Side branch." Empress Song said clearly.
After hearing this, Imperial Concubine Duanrong pursed her pink and glossy lips, blinked her long, bright and clear eyes, and said, "No wonder it caught His Majesty's eyes."
"My good sister, you were so confused from dancing that you can say such nonsense."
Since no one in the palace was an outsider, Empress Song said with some helplessness when facing her younger sister, who did not have much status as a monarch or minister.
If His Majesty were not the supporter, how could they be as noble as their sisters are today?
"My concubine made a mistake." After hearing this, Imperial Concubine Duanrong realized that she couldn't say anything nonsense. She lowered her eyelashes, covered her bright eyes, and said softly.
Not mentioning the casual chat between the two sisters in the palace, they said that Jia Heng, wearing Shang Fang's sword, left the Daming Palace, took the reins of the horse from the imperial guards at the palace gate, and was about to get on his horse, leave the palace, and head to the Five Cities. Bingma Si was suddenly startled, and then narrowed his eyes.
At the gate of the palace, King Qi was supported by two royal warriors in gray shirts and black robes. His big, chubby face came into view. His small eyes under his thick eyebrows were shining brightly. Staring at himself.
Around them, the servants of Prince Qi's Mansion had prepared sedan chairs and were waiting for them in the distance.
"Jia Ziyu, I have been waiting for you for a long time." King Qi sneered, looked at Jia Heng, and said inwardly.
Jia Heng's expression was indifferent, he cupped his hands and said, "I have met His Highness Prince Qi."
King Qi: "..."
The fat face trembled, and anger hit his forehead.
Prince Qi? Which pot won't be opened?
King Qi sneered and said: "Jia Heng, you are a lucky disciple. You are slandering your father, which will make me demote you. You are a lucky disciple and cannot last long. I want to see how long you can be arrogant! What kind of things are you doing?" Not to mention you, even if the Jia family is here, I won’t take it seriously!”
Jia Heng's face was pale, and he had already seen the treacherous thoughts behind the stupid appearance of the King of Qi. Such harsh words seemed a bit like the "cry" of a gangster after suffering a loss, but in fact it implied a "show of weakness".
"But this show of weakness is just for me and the emperor. I think he is stupid and I am dismissive of him. If he falls into the scheme, the King of Qi still has something to say to the emperor. No matter how stupid he is, he will not let go." After saying harsh words, he secretly harmed people... It is true and false, King Qi's hypocritical and unworthy persona is the best cover, but..."
King Qi was shouting like an old hooligan, but he saw the man opposite him suddenly took off the sword from his waist, held it in front of his eyes, walked a few steps quickly, and whispered: "His Royal Highness, this is the sword of the emperor. The sword of the emperor is here, as if the saint is here in person." , do you think that if I kill you, will I pay you with your life? A third-class general is exchanged for a prince, one life is worth one life! Who is the jade and who is the earthen pot? "
King Qi was stared at by the fierce eyes across from him. His expression changed, and the shouting in his mouth stopped abruptly. He looked at the murderous young man opposite him in confusion.
"You, what are you going to do?"
"His Royal Highness King Qi, Jia Mou is holding the Emperor's Sword in his hand, as if the Holy One is here in person! The Holy One orally ordered His Highness to go back home and study hard. Who asked you to stay in this palace! You bastards, why don't you help His Highness go back! It's not good to bully my Emperor's sword!" Jia Heng shouted, and with a flick of his sword, he sliced off the ear of one of the servants who was supporting King Qi.
This was the person who was sneering just now!
When the sword light swept away, only a scream was heard, and blood suddenly splashed everywhere. A few blood drops fell on King Qi's face. The chubby face was full of astonishment. He opened his mouth and found that not a word was said. , I felt my hands and feet were cold, and my fat body couldn't help but tremble.
How dare he!
This is the entrance to the palace! !
Beating a dog depends on the owner!
Arrogant and domineering!
These damn ones are Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao!
No, damn it, the Three Kingdoms seems to have been written by this guy...
King Qi was horrified. He just stared at it, but when he saw the Emperor's Sword in Jia Heng's hand, his heart trembled. This guy is really brave!
The emperor's sword is here, as if I were here in person!
Suddenly meeting those ferocious eyes, King Qi's small eyes narrowed tightly and his face turned livid.
Jia Heng gave a deep shout and said: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you send His Highness to the sedan chair!"
Since you are an old gangster pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, then I will deal with you the same way I dealt with the old gangster!
Back then, the prince of Qin broke the law, and Shang Yang cut off the nose of the prince's teacher. But today, he is a national hero, and the prince stops him and scolds him. Because of the difference between monarch and minister, he cannot cut off a hair of the king of Qi, but he can cut off the ear of his servant. As punishment and deterrence, even if the emperor knew about it, he would only respond silently.
Jia Ziyu is strong and decisive and should not be insulted!
As for offending King Qi?
Cutting off his wealth and punishing him by demoting him to a higher rank is offending him to death. What else do he want to do?
Do you still have to kneel down and beg for forgiveness?
You can only show your strength with the Emperor's Sword. If you dare to jump around again, your head will be cut off with the next sword!
The servant on the side covered his ears and groaned in pain, but when he saw King Qi's face was as gloomy as iron, he snorted coldly, "You little slave, shut up!"
There was an undetectable tremor in his voice.
He couldn't be mistaken just now. This father's dog slave really wanted to kill him!
King Qi had a gloomy and chubby face. With the support of several servants, he entered the sedan chair.
Dog slave, just wait for me!
King Qi got on the sedan in despair. In fact, the yelling in his heart at this moment really meant showing weakness.
As for the ears of King Qi's servant, they had already been picked up by the imperial guards on the side. He looked bitter and said, "Master Jia, when asked by the superiors, how do you respond?"
Jia Heng's face was silent and he said in a deep voice: "I hold the Emperor's Sword in my hand. It's like I'm here in person. I meet you one or two Xiaoxiao on the road. I hold the sword to punish you. You can do it with your heart and soul!"
Daming Palace
Emperor Chongping, who was reviewing the memorial after the imperial case, raised his cold eyes, listened quietly to what Dai Quan said, a strange look appeared on his face, and murmured: "This Jia Ziyu... really looks like a famous official of the former Han Dynasty. !”
In the early Han Dynasty, famous ministers were not so obedient. They were all upright and unbending.
Holding the emperor's envoy represents the emperor's authority.
Of course, in the eyes of Emperor Chongping, Jia Heng was still very measured in his actions.
First, not to hurt a single hair of the King of Qi; second, to use the emperor's sword and oral instructions to respond to the emperor's orders by opening and closing his mouth.
Dai Quan hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, there are fierce soldiers at the gate of Jia Ziyu's palace. If he is the censor..."
Emperor Chongping said coldly: "Holding Shangfang's sword in your hand, as if I were here in person, if you don't have such a decisive and decisive bearing, who are you qualified to wear my sword? Not to mention a slave's ears, even his head, who dares to speak with his beak! However, you Now go and tell the witnesses to the imperial guards not to make any noise about this matter! In addition, I have given you a verbal message that Jia Heng has made great achievements in investigating the case and will be given thirty pieces of silk as an encouragement."
When Dai Quan heard this, he was shocked and could not say anything. This was protection, and giving him silk was comfort.
"Could it be that this Jia Heng is His Majesty's illegitimate child..." Dai Quan thought with great disrespect in his heart, but for a moment, he felt that this idea was ridiculous.
He followed His Majesty from the time he left his residence until he entered the Daming Palace. If His Majesty had any romantic affair, would he not know about it?
It can only be said that Jia Heng is receiving the respect of His Majesty. He is in good hands and has no disadvantages.
When Dai Quan left, Emperor Chongping's stern face moved slightly, but he couldn't help but smile softly. However, after smiling, there was an unspeakable helplessness deep in his eyes.
