Chapter 181: Light handling

Views:

Qin Meng told Yang Lin about his experience in the Donggong Mansion in detail, and finally said: "Master Supervisor, Donggong has made obvious acts of trespassing. If the final general does not draw a line with the Donggong in an extreme way. , It’s a trivial matter to be implicated in the future when the saint knows about it. I’m afraid it will afflict the Lord Supervisor.”

Yang Lin heard that his brows were almost locked together, his face was so gloomy that he could squeeze out water.

Regardless of the age, arrogant behavior is the highest authority and absolutely cannot be allowed.

Not to mention being implicated, it's just a bit involved, it's not going to die, but it's going to fade.

"You took a rotten scholar, what do you want to do?" Yang Lin asked coldly.

"In the opinion of the commanding officer, in the eyes of the general, the prince did not deliberately overstepped, but the corrupt scholars consciously know the ancient and modern, bewitched the prince, rehearsed the etiquette of the emperor of the ancient Zhou Dynasty, in order to show the East Palace's rich texts, knowledge and rituals, and want to rule the world with culture. He won the hearts of scholars in the world, the prince... In the end, he thought that although there was an act of arrogance, there was no intention of arrogance."

"Huh, do you want to defend the prince?" Yang Lin asked gloomily.

Qin Meng's heart was tense, he knew well that Old Man Yang Lin didn't care about it. He just couldn't rub the sand in his eyes, and no matter who made any mistakes, he dared to challenge the imperial court, and he had to pass his test before speaking.

"The final general has no intention of this! I just feel that since this matter has been put on the table, and if it is not reported to the sage, then it is suspected of deceiving the king. However, if you only show the matter itself without telling the whole story, you will have trouble. No investigation is suspected. Therefore, the final general brought Ming Keran back, asked the confession, and handed it over to the sage. The cause and effect are clear at a glance. As for how to make a decision.

The expression of the old man Yang Lin calmed down: "Well, it's very appropriate to do so."

After speaking, the old man Yang Lin saw Qin Meng still holding the gold medal, snatched it from his hand, followed Qin Meng's face, and threw it down.

With a bang, the gold medal hit Qin Meng's forehead heavily, and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Master Supervisor, the final officer knew that he was wrong, and he would never dare to do it again!" Qin Meng shouted out almost reflexively.

Yang Lin sneered and said, "This word comes at the same time. In each case, you know that you are wrong, and you don't dare to do it again, but don't you dare to do it again?"

"This time it's true." Qin Meng hurriedly curled up into a ball, posing for the beating.

"Pick it up." After Yang Lin finished speaking, he asked the soldiers around him to bring Minke over.

Qin Meng picked up the gold medal, guessing that the old man Yang Lin let him hold it, so he put it away and stood beside Yang Lin.

In a short while, Ming Kerang was picked up. In front of Yang Lin, Ming Kerang dared not return the arrogance, and he honestly rehearsed Zhou Tianzi's ritual and music.

"The matter is big, you have to think about it clearly. If it's just a rehearsal of ritual music and unintentional overstepping, you can take it lightly. I'll see the Lord later, if you dare to talk nonsense, hum, it's a gangster Sin!"

Literati have hard bones, but they are not ignorant of current affairs. Especially in front of a man with an extremely powerful aura like Mr. Yang Lin, isn't that a tough one to look for death

Mingke asked to be on the verge of promise, and quickly said that what he said just now is the truth, and he will never talk nonsense.

Yang Lin immediately made preparations and took Qin Meng, Ming Kerang, and some guards, rushed to the palace overnight, and told the palace guard to inform him that there was something important to see the emperor.

Yang Jian has already fallen asleep, but everyone knows that Mr. Yang Lin is the most trusted person in the sage today. He said that there is something important, and it must not be delayed at all.

therefore. Yang Jian soon got news of Yang Lin's request.

Yang Jian didn't dare to neglect. He was the emperor, but when something urgent happened, the emperor had to get up to work.

When I saw Yang Lin at the side hall next to the bedroom, and heard that the East Palace had acted arrogantly, Yang Jian was furious: "What does the prince want? Since the day I became a prince, I have established him as a prince, supplemented by capable ones. Minister, Xu Yi governs the political affairs. Could it be that the prince wants to replace me if I am still in prosperity?"

Yang Lin waited quietly and waited for Yang Jian to vent, and his anger a little less, then he said: "Your Majesty, in the view of the old minister, the prince has a treacherous trip, but he may not have a treacherous heart. The prince is nothing more than straightforwardness. Hearing Kuangsheng’s words and wishing to show the world in text, he did not consider the consequences before he went beyond the courtesy. Qin Meng witnessed everything with his own eyes, and after taking the Kuangsheng Ming restraint, your Majesty asked him, and he understood."

Yang Jian turned his eyes to Qin Meng who was kneeling beside Yang Lin. When he was about to ask questions, he found that Qin Meng almost buried his head on the ground, seeming very frightened.

"Qin Aiqing, although you are visiting the prince and participating in violating rituals and music, your first announcement, naturally, the arrogant trip has nothing to do with you."

"Thank your majesty for your grace, the minister is very grateful." Qin Meng's head still fell to the ground, telling Yang Jian what happened in the East Palace.

As Yang Jian listened, he felt more and more strange. When Qin Meng finished speaking, Yang Jian said, "Qin Aiqing, look up, I have forgiven you for participating in arrogance, so why are you still so afraid? Hehe, I am not a scourge, come here ,look up… "

When Qin Meng raised his head, Yang Jian was startled.

On Qin Meng's forehead, a big bag the size of a bean bag bulged.

"This, this, what's going on?" Yang Jian pointed to the big bag on Qin Meng's head and said.

Yang Lin answered, "My Majesty, it was an old minister. This little beast. In order to protect himself, he dared to show the gold medal of the imperial gift in the East Palace. That gold medal cannot be used because of the country's difficulties. Therefore, the minister has been severely punished. Kill him."

Qin Meng understood that Yang Lin didn't hit people casually, but to protect him better.

As the old man said, the imperial gift gold medal cannot be used for non-national disasters. But he used it to protect himself.

This may not be a serious sin, but if the emperor knows about it, it will always leave a bad impression, and even direct punishment is not impossible.

Now, it's hitting too. The emperor is always embarrassed to punish again, right

Yang Jian's face twitched, and he knew two things. First, the old prince's preference for Qin Meng was so unremarkable that Jane gave him the gold medals, indicating that he had already trusted him in his confidant.

Another thing is that the old prince is still so unselfish, no matter how trusting the person he spoils, he should fight or fight, and he will never show mercy.

Qin Meng showed the gold medal without authorization. It was indeed due to improper behavior. However, his head had been hit with such a big bag, so let's forget about this matter.

Yang Jian said a few words, relieved Qin Meng, and asked him to bring Ming Kerang over and interrogated him personally.

It was night, Yang Jian didn't say anything, and asked Yang Lin to take Qin Meng back to his home to rest.

On the second day, Yang Jian summoned Xin Quan, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and asked specifically about what happened in the Donggong Mansion during the winter solstice yesterday.

Xin Quan said to him: "The officials went to the East Palace. It was a congratulation, it was not a court meeting, so it was not a ritual."

Yang Jian replied: "Rite and joy are in the court. It is not for the emperor to summon his subjects.

Xin Quan wanted to argue again, but Yang Jian didn't comment on this matter anymore.

Further on. Yang Jian seemed to assume that this incident had not happened. Not only did he not take any action against the East Palace, but also did not implement the Autumn Afternoon Settlement to the officials who came to the East Palace to congratulate that day.

This made Jin Wang Yang Guang, who had returned from the palace, a little anxious. He seized the opportunity privately, found Qin Meng, and expressed his thoughts without any scruples.

"General. Right now the prince arrogant in the East Palace is a great opportunity to suppress him. How can he stay still? You must know that there is no opportunity to lose, and the loss will never come again."

Qin Meng understood Yang Guang’s eagerness, not because Yang Guang wanted to replace Yang Yong at this time, but because, whether Yang Yong did it himself or Yang Yong’s subordinates performed the sword himself, it was already Measures to suppress Yang Guang.

Yang Guang is no more agile than Yang Yong. He knew very well that he would never be good when he was involved in the battle with the East Palace.

Even if Yang Yong wants to settle things down, what are his subordinates doing? There are only a few people in the top power circle. How can they have their place if they don't kick out a few

It is precisely because of his understanding that Yang Guang firmly believes that if he doesn't want to be stepped on, he must step on others.

This is the law of the jungle, the weak eat the strong, the strong eats all, it has nothing to do with moral conscience or anything.

Qin Meng smiled and said: "The King Jin, the Lord Supervisor reported late at night, and the sage personally intervened. Do you think that this matter, the sage said to let it go, so he let it go?"

Yang Guang said anxiously: "The Holy Master must have a grudge, but. Didn't the Holy Master also move the East Palace?"

"Haha, don't worry. The East Palace is the inheritance of the country. If the East Palace is sanctioned only on the grounds of arrogance, the imperial court will be suspicious. In this way, the sanctuary will inevitably lead to accidents. If it fails, It’s not what the Holy Spirit wants."

"General, it's not that Guang doesn't understand these truths. It's just that I heard that Donggong wants to attack the general!"

Qin Meng frowned upon hearing this: "Oh? What do you say?"

Yang Guang looked around, and whispered: "I heard that the official of the East Palace wants to use the royal gift gold medal without authorization to impeach the general. General, this is not a trivial matter, the royal gift gold medal. It is a symbol of imperial power, and its use is comparable. The imperial edict. It is a manifestation of the absolute authority of the imperial power. If the general shows it casually, it is obviously disrespectful and disrespectful of the imperial power."

Qin Meng was a little annoyed when he heard it, but he was not afraid of impeachment about his unauthorized use of the imperial gold medal, because Yang Jian already knew it, and, because of the use of the gold medal, the bag on his head had not disappeared yet.

The point is that the subordinate officials of the East Palace are a bit deceptive. Although he was thrown at the pot and made Donggong lose face, after all, Qin Meng didn't do anything wrong, leaving a way out for the prince Yang Yong.

Now, instead of being grateful, Dong Gong wants to deal with him. This is intolerable.

"King Jin, do you have someone in the East Palace?"

Yang Guang pondered for a moment and looked at Qin Meng's scorching eyes. Knowing that this matter could not be hidden from him, he said: "Yes, I have someone in the East Palace."

Qin Meng nodded: "The person who informs you, ask him to mediate, squeeze the prince's superintendent, and then put on a memorial to impeach us." (End of this chapter)
