Jia Cong was aggrieved on the face that he had lost a piece of gold ingot, but he was still very happy in his heart.
If his father-in-law could leave an impression in the emperor's heart as a critic who dared to rebuke him, it would be like earning a talisman for Lin Ruhai's future and the future of the Lin family.
There was once an emperor and a minister. My father-in-law only became loyal to the current emperor last year. The character of a capable minister and a critical minister can be said to be a double insurance at the moment.
Liu Heng was in a good mood today. He asked the imperial kitchen to prepare a meal in the Qinzheng Hall and gave Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong a banquet.
There was no mention of government affairs during the dinner, but instead there was much talk of romance in the south of the Yangtze River. Liu Heng even asked about the scenery along the Qinhuai River. The two of them criticized the luxurious style of the wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River...
Leisure time is always extremely short. After the monarch and his ministers finished their meal, they returned to their seats. Only then did the emperor mention the seven assassinations along the way.
Lin Ruhai stood up and apologized: "Rong Chen is being disrespectful..."
Lin Ruhai asked for a small knife from Xia Shouzhong, opened the lining of his official robe and slashed hard, and two booklets fell out.
Jia Cong picked it up and flipped through it. It was full of various charges and evidence against Jiangnan officials, gentry, and wealthy businessmen.
"Your Majesty, these are the illegal affairs of officials, gentry, and wealthy merchants in the prefectures of Nanzhili and Zhejiang provinces that I have collected in the past ten years. In particular, last year, the Long Imperial Guard assisted me in secretly investigating the case of colluding with Japanese pirates and bandits. , the people involved in the Jiangnan case ranged from the government officials in southern Zhili to the local gentry, a total of more than 350 people, large and small..."
Liu Heng's mood became worse as he flipped through the pages of the account book, and he said coldly: "No wonder the whole court is opposed to the opening of the sea. It turns out that they are worried that others will steal their business. Ridiculous, hateful, Killable!"
Lin Ruhai bowed down and said, "If His Majesty's Holy Eyes had not sent someone to warn me earlier and sent the warriors of the Dragon Guard to protect me, I would have died at the hands of these people last winter."
Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai's feelings for the emperor were beyond words. This emperor was stingy, but he was very kind to his own people.
Last year, the emperor himself did not have many available people around him, but when he sent a secret message asking for help, Liu Ke secretly led a large number of Dragon Guards' secret guards south along the canal.
If it weren't for the protection of hundreds of secret guards, he would have died in repeated assassinations.
Lin Ruhai's gratitude greatly benefited Liu Heng, and he also admired this loyal and upright minister very much.
He stood up and walked to the palace, helped Lin Ruhai up with his own hands and said with emotion: "Lin Qing is loyal to the state, how can I not protect her? Jiangnan is corrupted, and for the sake of the overall situation, I can only wrong Lin Qing for a while. You risked your life this time. Send these evidences, and you will be the first to conquer Jiangnan one day..."
After that, Liu Heng said to Jia Cong: "You have nothing to do. Go to Huangji Palace for me, send these two account books to the saint, and ask him what to do with them."
The little fat man who was originally a melon-eater was so shocked by the emperor's cowardice that his eyes widened. He pointed his chubby finger at himself and said in disbelief: "Me? Your Majesty, I can't bear the anger of the saint!"
"I think you can handle it. At least you are more favored by my father than me!"
Jia Cong really wanted to reply, "I don't want you to think..."
….
It's a pity that he is the youngest here. It is just natural for adults to bully children.
Carrying two account books, Feng Xiao and Yi Shuihan walked all the way to the Huangji Palace.
Before entering the main hall, there was a loud bang on the closed door, startling the already uneasy little fat man.
"Look what you look like? How many times have I told you that the affairs of the Zhen family are left to me and the fourth child to handle. Why are you anxious? What are you anxious about?"
Zhen family? What kind of trouble is this bitch Liu Wei doing?
Bang...
There was another loud bang at the palace door, and the sound of broken porcelain made Jia Cong turn around and prepare to run away.
The old Dragon King was so irritable today, he didn't want to suffer the consequences of Chiyu.
pity……
"Come in!"
Ga!
The old Dragon King is still the same old Dragon King, dragon
There is nothing he doesn't know about in the territory of the First Palace. When Jia Cong entered the palace gate of Longshou Palace, his every move was reflected in those dragon eyes.
The palace door slowly opened, revealing a mess.
In the center of the Huangji Hall, the loyal king Liu Ao knelt there dejectedly. When Jia Cong shakily moved one foot forward, his clenched fists immediately retracted into his sleeves.
Next to him knelt a woman in palace attire, wiping tears. No need to look, it is undoubtedly Zhen.
As soon as Jia Cong moved one foot in, he was immediately surrounded by strong winds and rain.
In the main hall, Lord Dan, the old Dragon King's eyes widened with anger, and there seemed to be flames bursting out all around, making Jia Cong subconsciously want to turn around and flee.
"What does it look like to shrink your head and brains at such a young age? Straighten up your back!"
Without even thinking about it, Jia Cong immediately knelt on the spot with a thump and banged his head three times: "The saint has a long life! I risked my life to remonstrate, and I am so angry that I hurt myself. Please calm down and don't be angry because of other people's faults." , I am so angry that my dragon body is so angry. All the people in the world are still looking forward to your blessing!"
Dai Quan, who was anxious and didn't know how to remonstrate, immediately followed, knelt down and advised: "What Xiao Jia Lang said is, the saint, the imperial doctor said, please don't get angry again. Just like Xiao Jia Lang As the general said, you are the king and father of all the subjects in the world, and thousands of your subjects still need you to protect them..."
"I'm afraid they all hope that I will die soon!"
Liu Ji seemed to be extremely irritable today. He looked coldly at Zhen's mother and son who were kneeling on the ground. Just as he was about to speak out the scolding words in his throat, he suddenly felt dizzy...
Dai Quan, who always had the dragon body of a saint at the side, had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly stood up to support him. He was just about to call out for the imperial doctor, but he heard Jia Cong suddenly shout: "Sage, I have a secret message, please stand back from all sides!"
Liu Ji endured the dizziness, gritted his teeth and squeezed out one word: "Accurate!"
Then he sat on the dragon chair, solemnly and solemnly. Dai Quan immediately came to Zhen's mother and son who were kneeling in the hall, and whispered persuasion: "Mother, the Zhen family is fine. The saint has made arrangements a long time ago. You should go back with the Fourteenth Master. .”
"But……"
Zhen still wanted to say something, but when she raised her head, she saw the Supreme Emperor staring at her coldly, unable to speak out the pleading on her lips.
As for Liu Yan, he was distracted by the secret message from the little fat man. He lowered his head and wondered whether Jia Enhou's little brat would do something detrimental to him again.
Dai Quan spoke again and said in a low voice: "Mother, if you ask any more, you are violating the holy will. The gain outweighs the loss. Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness!"
….
Mrs. Zhen finally heard the meaning of Dai Quan's words, and a chill ran down her spine. After bowing to His Majesty Dan, she motioned for Liu Yi to retreat with him.
Liu Yan no longer wanted to stay in the Huangji Palace. He shouted long live and followed Zhen out of the palace.
When he approached Jia Cong, he couldn't help but scolded him in a low voice: "Is this what Marquis Jia En taught you? When you saw your mother and concubine and this king, you even forgot to salute and say hello?"
Jia Cong flashed the coiled dragon golden order on his waist and glanced at this brainless man: "I have no choice but to bear the imperial order and only worship the saint and His Majesty. I dare to worship, do you dare to accept it?"
"presumptuous……"
"忭儿!"
Mrs. Zhen still had some brains, so she took a peek at the Supreme Emperor sitting on the dragon throne and reminded her silly son.
Liu Fu was alert and immediately closed his mouth. He just snorted coldly and threatened in a voice that only Jia Cong could hear: "His Japanese king will definitely defeat Rongguo Mansion!"
Jia Cong sneered and replied, "Wait until you can beat my father."
"you……"
Liu An was filled with rage, glared at Jia Cong coldly, and finally threw up his sleeves and left with his mother.
Jia Cong stood up quickly, struggled to close the palace door, and then ran up to Lord Dan regardless of the rules, and asked worriedly: "Master Sage, how are you?"
"I'm fine."
After Liu Ji closed the doors and windows of the main hall, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained, and he fell limply on the dragon chair.
How could Jia Cong believe what this stubborn old man said? He placed his fingers on his right wrist, and the amplitude of his pulse dropped slightly.
It's almost too weak to be checked.
"Mr. Dai, please quickly call for the imperial doctor. Also, quickly go to the Qinzheng Palace to invite His Majesty..."
The imperial doctor came very quickly. Just as Jia Cong had guessed, the Emperor was extremely angry today and his stroke worsened again.
After the emperor hurriedly arrived at the Huangji Palace, he listened worriedly to the imperial doctor's medical report. He was so angry that he went to the Yanxi Palace to chop down the Zhen family and the fourteenth son Liu Wei with a knife.
After the Emperor suffered his first stroke in the 49th year of Zhaowu, the imperial doctor repeatedly warned the princes not to get angry again. Did he want to kill the old man as soon as possible?
"The fourth child...the fourth child..."
After a course of acupuncture, the old man finally recovered temporarily. After he regained consciousness, the first thing he thought of was to call the emperor to come closer and warned: "Don't tell anyone what happened today. Remember it!"
"Father, you still protect him!"
Liu Heng immediately thought of the reason why the old man gave such an order. It would be extremely unfilial to become a father out of anger.
Liu Ji shook his head: "His ambition was started by his father. I was the one who was confused at first... This time, just think of it as you repaying him for his father's karma."
Hearing what the old man said, Liu Heng could only nod in agreement: "My son knows, my father will take good care of himself, and his son will arrange everything."
"Zhao Lao Thirteen returns, and Yu Linlang will be taken over by him."
"Assemble the imperial mausoleum guards to the capital and put them on guard duty, just in case."
The old man was now conscious. After he arranged everything properly, he waved to Jia Cong to come forward.
He wanted to raise his hand to touch Jia Cong's head, but he couldn't find the strength.
Jia Cong knelt beside the bed and said sincerely: "Master Saint, please take good care of your health. When you are well, we will go hunting. Apart from anything else, I can cook barbecue so well that even the imperial kitchen can't compare with it." I."
"You are quite clever today, so you should be rewarded!"
The old man smiled and said out of the blue: "If you have nothing to do, please come to the palace to talk to me more often these days. My great general Huwei needs someone to take him out for a walk."
Jia Cong turned to look at the emperor beside him. After seeing him nodding, he responded: "If you don't think I'm naughty, Master Sage, then I will come into the palace to accompany you every day when the palace gate opens."
"That being the case, according to my decree, the matters concerning the confinement of Longshou Palace will be temporarily taken over by General Jia Cong, General Habayashi."
After arranging all this, Liu Ji seemed to be extremely tired and closed his eyes and stopped talking.
After diagnosing his pulse, the imperial doctor reported: "The saint was fine. He just exhausted his mind and fell into a deep sleep. However, we must not let the saint be frightened or angry anymore, otherwise it will be really dangerous."
