Chui Gong Hall returned to its usual calm, but probably because of Emperor Liu, the atmosphere always seemed a little subtle. There was a loud crashing sound, which was very abrupt in the quiet palace, startling everyone, but it was Emperor Liu who overturned the extremely eye-catching memorials on the imperial eucalyptus.
The air in the palace seemed to have solidified, and time seemed to have stopped. After a moment of silence, Yantuo looked at Emperor Liu carefully, but saw that Emperor Liu's face was as usual, with a calm expression, and he was holding a book of unknown content in his hand. Reading the memorial.
After hesitating for a moment, Yantuo called to the two chamberlains in the palace, stepped forward and carefully picked up the memorials scattered on the ground, and put them away gently.
Li Fang also silently changed a blank edict and wrote the edict again according to Emperor Liu's wishes. This time, he needed to draft a lot of edicts.
Soon, a neatly written and fluent edict was drawn up. Li Fang personally handed it to Emperor Liu for review. Emperor Liu only glanced at it for a while and then handed it back to him. His eyes fell on the seal box. Li Fang understood. He solemnly held the jade seal to the royal eucalyptus.
Seeing Li Fang, the current cabinet member, stamping his seal on the edict with awe and caution, Emperor Liu felt inexplicably better.
The atmosphere of silence that had been silent for a long time was finally broken. Emperor Liu asked Li Fang: "You haven't spoken much just now. Wang Pu and Zhao Pu all have ideas. You, a cabinet bachelor, don't have any suggestions?"
Carefully placing the jade seal symbolizing the emperor's authority back into the brocade box again, Li Fang respectfully replied: "As a minister, your Majesty's will should come first in everything and you should obey your Majesty's instructions. Your Majesty has already taken care of this matter. Do you have any objections to the decision?"
After hearing what he said, Emperor Liu immediately smiled and said: "My cabinet ministers are also required to be capable and knowledgeable. They are not puppets and clay sculptures, and you are not a person without opinions."
"In the palace just now, Wang Pu's attitude can be described as clear. Although he was convinced by me, I know that the concerns in his heart have not diminished at all, but have intensified!
Although Zhao Pu is not as obedient as Wang Pu, I also understand that he also has an idea in mind, but for some reason he does not express it clearly.
You have been working in many places for so many years. I don’t believe you don’t have any ideas on this matter! "
As he said that, Emperor Liu looked at Li Fang with a more heart-warming look in his eyes, and said solemnly: "Although you don't say anything, don't you also think that my decision this time is a bit too strong and too conceited?"
"Are you also dissatisfied with my decision?"
Emperor Liu vented these words like he was pouring beans, but Li Fang responded. He lowered his head slightly, pondered for a long time, and choked out a sentence: "I don't dare!"
This reaction obviously made Emperor Liu unable to hold back. He stood up, walked around angrily for a few steps, and scolded: "You ministers, when something happens, you just say you don't dare? What attitude, what thoughts, what is there to say? No." What does dare mean? Huh?"
Facing Emperor Liu's questioning, Li Fang finally showed a little helplessness on his serious face. He looked at Emperor Liu carefully and sighed inevitably in his heart. If you don’t dare, you just don’t dare. As for why you don’t dare, you don’t even dare to say it.
"Don't dare!" Emperor Liu, as if he wanted to vent all the frustration in his chest, pointed at the royal eucalyptus and said sternly: "You, the distinguished ministers and ministers, all look down in front of me and look down on me. Li said he didn't dare to do it, but when he left Chui Gong Hall and the court, what was there that he didn't dare to do?
Knowing the law and breaking the law, committing fraud for personal gain, all these cases are shocking to me. Those who are humble and respectful are not just for me to see! "
"I'm guilty!" Li Fang, probably unable to withstand Emperor Liu's cannon-like firepower, bent down a little and said in a deep voice.
Seeing this, Emperor Liu immediately laughed angrily, pointed at Li Fang and said, "Ha! Are you guilty again? The crime in your mouth couldn't have been forced by me to say it!"
There was a hint of bitterness in the emperor's tone, but Li Fang was unshakable and looked like he was listening to the holy teachings. Emperor Liu's angry rebuke was like a storm. Li Fang was not afraid at all, just because he knew in his heart that Emperor Liu was not targeting him.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
At this moment, Li Fang is just a ball of cotton or a puddle of water. Emperor Liu's words are like a knife, and it is difficult to hurt him. Seeing this, Emperor Liu smiled again. After venting his anger, his anger seemed to have calmed down, and his mood gradually calmed down. After all, he was not targeting Li Fang.
"I've lost my composure!" Emperor Liu waved his hand and said this.
Hearing what he said, Li Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty has always loved and cared for me, and now he is angry and angry because of his deep love and deep responsibility. Some people do go too far and let him down." Your Majesty trusts me!"
Regarding Li Fang's words, Emperor Liu's reaction was relatively calm, he didn't express anything, and he no longer had any attacks.
After sitting down and thinking for a while, Emperor Liu asked: "What's the news about Liu Yang? Where is he? It was he who dug up the Huazhou Eucalyptus. Now the influence of his behavior is getting more and more widespread, causing a lot of trouble, but he is nothing." asked!"
"According to the previous notification from the prince's camp, His Royal Highness should have visited Qizhou!" Li Fang reported, paused, and asked for instructions: "Does Your Majesty intend to recall the prince?"
Hearing this, Emperor Liu obviously hesitated, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "That's all! It's not a bad thing to let him visit the place more. In this way, you can draft an edict, send it to the camp, and tell Liu Yang, just return to Beijing before the Lantern Festival!"
"yes!"
Li Fang looked at Emperor Liu carefully, and suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart. From the emperor's peaceful instructions, he felt a hint of care.
For the prince, digging out the Huazhou Eucalyptus would have the effect of establishing his authority. However, when the subsequent series of disturbances and court shocks caused by this incident may not be a good thing for the prince, Xijing is now a whirlpool, with a large number of nobles and bureaucrats involved. It is conceivable that many people will As a result, you may be charged or suffer loss of profits.
Probably no one dares to resent Emperor Liu, but if there is some unkindness that blames all these reasons on the prince, then it will inevitably have some bad effects on the prince.
After all, Li Fang is Liu Yang's teacher, so when it comes to matters involving him, it is inevitable to have more careful consideration and care. In Li Fang's eyes, letting the prince return to Beijing before the Shangyuan Festival is a kind of protection. By that time, the turmoil in the court will have basically subsided, and even if it has not, it will be in the final stage.
Emperor Liu naturally didn't know about Li Fang's divergent thinking. He was sitting behind the imperial eucalyptus, took out a copy of this chapter, and read it with a frown and a cold face, and the ink pen made circles on it from time to time.
This is a list, a list of all the criminals and their crimes who have surrendered and been investigated and interrogated by the department so far. Quietly, Emperor Liu had already received a summary of these personnel matters.
At this time, Emperor Liu's emotions were hard to tell, but with each stroke of the red pen, the chill in the Chui Gong Palace seemed to increase. The light tip of the pen was as sharp as a sharp knife.
When the ninth year of Kaibao came to an end, with Emperor Liu's edicts issued, the political trend caused by Zhang Jinyu in Huazhou also came to an end. This also means that the turmoil between the government and the opposition that lasted for nearly a month has finally subsided.
In fact, when Emperor Liu's attitude was made clear, everyone's criticism, noise, struggle, and running stopped, and everyone became silent, switching from being active to waiting.
A word to calm Xijing, this is Emperor Liu's current power.
Of course, this was accompanied by more than two hundred law enforcers from the Three Judiciary Divisions, who judged and sentenced dozens of cases, large and small, and nearly a thousand criminals involved. This process lasted for ten days.
After the final deliberation of Dali Temple, seventy-three noble disciples, as well as internal and external officials, were sentenced to death. The rest were demoted, exiled, and having their homes confiscated and dismissed from official positions may be a lenient punishment.
