Both the prince and the princess had carriages, and someone brought some horses to Han Yun and the soldiers. They all galloped all the way to the palace.
The emperor's usual office was not in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but in the Imperial Study Room. All the nobles were also in the Imperial Study Room, and they all angrily criticized Han Yun.
The emperor was smiling without the slightest hint of impatience. He just felt that Han Yun had done a great job. He could not be soft on this matter. He wanted to use this matter to rectify the Imperial Guards and even the Imperial Guards.
"My dear friends, please stop arguing. Han Yun will be here soon. When the time comes, we will have a confrontation and you will know who is right and who is wrong."
"Your Majesty, do you still need to judge this matter? The Duke Protector's son was beaten to death by him!"
Whoever dies is justified, a principle common to all worlds.
At this time, the imperial study room door was opened, and a eunuch walked in.
"Your Majesty, Taibao Han has arrived."
"Well, call him in."
The emperor nodded.
The little eunuch looked embarrassed and said cautiously,
"Your Majesty, Taibao Han has brought too many people. I'm afraid there won't be enough room in the royal study room."
"How many people did he bring? How many people did he bring?"
The emperor was surprised for a moment, then looked at the room full of dozens of nobles, waved his hands helplessly and said,
"Let's go outside."
After leaving the study and the main hall, the emperor led the nobles outside.
When the Marquis of Pingyuan saw several soldiers standing behind Han Yun, he was immediately "shocked" and said,
"Han Yun, what are you going to do with your troops to face the Holy Spirit? Are you going to rebel?"
He wanted to call someone to capture the traitor, but in the presence of the emperor, he did not dare to overstep his bounds.
"See Your Majesty!"
Everyone outside clasped their hands and bowed.
The few guardsmen lowered their heads fearfully and did not dare to say a word.
This day is really magical for them.
Originally he was just guarding the gate, but unexpectedly he was beaten by the Lord Protector.
Just beat them. They were used to being bullied by officials anyway. Unexpectedly, Palace Master Han was so protective of his shortcomings that he directly asked them to beat the Duke Protector's son to death in revenge. Then he came to the palace inexplicably and saw the emperor.
This is their first time entering the palace.
They are imperial guards, but not bodyguards. They can only take a look at the palace on weekdays.
The dignitaries walked down the steps and gathered together on the left side of the emperor. In the middle were the eldest prince, prince and princess, and on the right were Han Yun and a few soldiers.
"Han Taibao, tell me what's going on."
The emperor asked majestically, standing on the steps.
Han Yun took a step forward and said,
"Your Majesty, I am here to accuse the Lord Protector of beating the Guards officers without reason and breaking into the Guards camp without permission. I ask Your Majesty to punish the Lord Protector."
All the honorable nobles were dumbfounded. Why did they call you out to ask you to say this?
"You beat him up!"
"You are making trouble!"
"You're so messy!"
"You deceive me and ignore your superiors!"
"You are confusing right and wrong!"
…
Zhu Gong learned idioms really well.
"Quiet, all quiet."
The emperor raised his hand. At this time, a eunuch brought a chair from behind. After the emperor sat down, he looked at Han Yun and said with a pleasant expression,
"Han Taibao, let's talk about each case one by one. Before you attack the son of the Protector, let's talk about this first."
"Yes, your majesty. After lunch, I and my three highnesses went to the school grounds. I saw Qin Hui, the commander of the Jiazi Battalion, beating the squad leader Zhang Piao for no reason. I asked him to stop. Not only did he not obey the general's order, but he also insulted me with words, saying The formations taught by Chen Jiao are rubbish.
Your Majesty invited me to teach the Imperial Guards. If he calls me rubbish, then he is questioning His Majesty's poor vision, which is a crime of great disrespect.
In the army, disobeying a general at any time is a capital offense, and insulting His Majesty is also a capital offense, so I will put him to death as a warning to others.
Then, the Lord Protector came with his men and indiscriminately broke into the camp gate and beat the soldiers guarding the gate.
The soldiers were so innocent. Their duty was to guard the gate. They were just doing their duty faithfully. However, they were beaten by the Protector with his power and did not dare to fight back. Look, how badly they were beaten. "
Several soldiers were bandaged with gauze. It was impossible to tell whether there were any injuries under the gauze. Anyway, they looked quite miserable.
Your noses are almost crooked with anger. Even if you beat a few dog slaves, you still have to bring it to the table. Besides, no matter how hard you beat them, aren't these people still alive and kicking? But you beat people to death.
Marquis Pingyuan said immediately,
"Your Majesty, even if Tan Hui is at fault, as the eldest prince, he should be captured, sent to the Ministry of Punishment for trial, and then handed over to Dali Temple for trial. What authority does Han Yun have to execute him privately?!"
Hearing this, the emperor said lightly,
"I have entrusted the palace guards and imperial guards to Han Taibao with full authority. He has the power to do whatever is convenient for him. So, do you think that in the army, do generals have the power to deal with erring subordinates?"
Upon hearing this, all the princes were about to refute immediately, but suddenly they all reacted.
If you say you have the right, then Han Yun is justified in killing Tan Hui.
If you say no, then Tan Hui made a mistake by hitting Zhang Piao.
He made the mistake first. If he can do the first grade of junior high school, Han Yun will naturally be able to do the fifteenth grade.
Good guy, conspiracy, it's so stuck.
Prince Pingyuan discovered the loophole and immediately said,
"Your Majesty, this is not a time of war. Although generals have the right to punish their subordinates, they must do so within a reasonable range. A few blows are of course okay, but killing people is wrong.
Even if Tan Hui was at fault first, he should be tried first and then sentenced, instead of Han Yun just killing him indiscriminately. "
"Then he has been disrespectful to me, does he still have to be tried?"
The emperor's face darkened a little,
"Since I have completely delegated power to Han Taibao, he naturally has the power to decide all affairs in the army. My dear friends, don't say any more."
"Your Majesty, you cannot completely delegate power to an outsider. If you hand over the army to him, what will happen if he leads the army to rebel?"
Pingyuan Hou was in great distress.
"I believe he won't. Prince Pingyuan should not judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."
The emperor said calmly.
The old emperor trusts me so much?
Han Yun was a little surprised, but he also knew that the old emperor was just speaking for the occasion, and now he was just using him as a spearman to rectify the army.
Seeing that his plan failed, Marquis Pingyuan came up with another plan and cried out,
"Your Majesty, the Protector of the Kingdom fainted from crying. His ancestors were heroes who fought with Emperor Taizu to conquer the world. They made great military exploits. When they defeated the Wei Dynasty, the old Protector of the Kingdom passed away. But he took the lead and was hit by more than a dozen arrows and captured the enemy camp.
After such hard work and great achievements, his descendants were beaten to death and had no way to redress their grievances. How sad it is for his spirit in heaven.
Presumably Emperor Taizu knew about it and would be sad. "
Some people died, but not completely...
