Da Wei Chun

Chapter 291
To the south of Zhaoyang Hall is the emperor's main hall-style Qian Palace, and further south is the Taiji Hall, the great court palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty, which is also commonly known as the Jinluan Hall by the people.

The Tai Chi Hall also has three halls in one hall, and the main hall is generally not used, except for important state events such as the New Year's Day Dynasty, the new emperor's enthronement, and amnesty to change the Yuan Dynasty.

General court meetings, receptions of envoys, foreign ministers, foreign countries, banquets, etc., will be placed in the East Hall.

Today is the small kitchen meeting, the outside of the palace is very lively, and the inside of the palace is also peaceful.In addition to nothing, Yuan Ke gave up the court meeting early and feasted for the officials in the East Hall.

After the wine is finished, it will be almost noon, and the officials should also go down to court.

The ministers ate very deliciously. Nearly a hundred people gathered together, and there was no noise other than eating. The sound of chewing together was like a galloping horse.On the table, there are lamb legs, pork knuckles, or fish sticks that are different, and the hall is full of fragrance.

In contrast, the emperor seemed out of place.Although it was seated on a high couch, there were only two plates of vegetarian dishes and a bowl of rice on the jade table.

Yuan Ke was weak and sick since he was a child, and he didn't like to eat meat. In addition to the hot weather, the smell of the stench in the palace was even more tasteless.The rice only moved a few chopsticks a little, but the few vegetarian dishes did not move at all.He only held a cup of plum wine in his hand, and only occasionally took a sip.

Seeing a small yellow door entering the hall sideways, and talking cautiously beside Sizhou Mu (the governor of Sizhou, the highest official in Gyeonggi) Yuan Yong, Yuan Ke had a strange look on his face.

He had nothing to do, and since he was sitting taller, he could see clearly: this is the fourth time this little yellow gate has entered the palace.

The person who was summoned away for the first time was Luoyang Ling (Luoyang County Magistrate) Yang Jun, the second time was Henan Yin (Henan County Prefect) Li Xian, and the third time was Zongzheng Temple Qing Yuanqin, and each time They all look weird.

This is clearly a major event that happened in Luoyang City, and it must be related to the clan.

He looked at Gao Zhao on the left side, Gao Zhao pondered for a moment, then shook his head lightly, meaning that the matter was not too big and His Majesty did not need to worry about it.

It's not that Gao Zhao has any thoughts, but that this matter is too embarrassing for the royal family, and he is afraid that Yuan Ke will be angry and hurt himself.

Even Luoyang Ling and Henan Yin couldn't handle it, so how could it not be considered a big deal?

Yuan Ke's eyes were slightly cold, and he stopped Yuan Yong who was bowing to him and was about to leave, and asked solemnly, "What happened?"

What else could it be?
Yuan Yue robbed the man and failed to get it, but got two teeth knocked out...

Yuan Yong was full of gloating, and he had to keep a straight face, and it was even more difficult to speak publicly in front of the officials, so he had to walk a few steps quickly and whispered a few words in the emperor's ear.

Before he finished listening, a morbid flush suddenly appeared on Yuan Ke's face, his chest and abdomen kept rising and falling, and his throat let out a "He Chi He Chi" sound.

Yuan Yong was surprised: "Your Majesty?"

"It's okay!" Yuan Ke let out a breath, and said with a gloomy face, "Uncle Huang will go to the trial himself, you must be fair..."

"Please remember!" Yuan Yong bowed respectfully and stepped back out of the hall.

With such a big scandal, Yuan Ke didn't even think about having a banquet, so he waved his hands in frustration: "All you have fun!"

After speaking, he was supported by the servants and went to the west hall.

All the ministers respectfully presented him with gifts, except for a few eunuchs, only Gao Zhao followed the emperor.

After walking through the hundreds of paces of corridors and pavilions, until he entered the West Hall, Yuan Ke still seemed angry:

"Taizu (the founding emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Daowu Emperor Tuobasi) had a saying: If the world is to be clarified, the clan must first speak of virtue and conduct the world... But Yuan Yue refused to change after repeated admonitions. Face, even death with a stick is what you deserve..."

Knowing that no matter how angry the emperor is, he can't really kill Yuan Yue, Gao Zhao secretly sighed, and persuaded respectfully:

"Your Majesty, please take care of your health... The minister has already told Yang Jun, Li Xian and others to keep a low profile and deal with it as 'a dispute arises and the two parties fight each other'."

Yuan Ke let out a heavy breath.

This is what should be done, otherwise if today's event is really spread, people in the world will probably laugh out loud.

He asked again strangely: "Then why did Uncle Yonghuang be alarmed?"

"The Marquis of Juping County (Yuan Qin, Yuan clan, Zongzheng Siqing) thought that since they fought each other, they should punish the son of Li Shi who assaulted King Ruyang on the grounds of disrespect to the royal family, so that he could stop talking about it.

However, Zhao Xian and Yang Jun believed that although Li Shizi assaulted King Ruyang, there was a reason for the incident, and he was forced to do so in anger. He did not know that it was King Ruyang who was beaten before the attack, so he should not be punished. ...It should be that the two sides were at a stalemate, so he sent someone to invite King Yingchuan (Yuan Yong)..."

Yuan Ke snorted angrily: "It's ridiculous!"

If things were done fairly, the matter would disappear within a few days at most.But if the unjust case is settled, I am afraid that the city will be full of storms immediately.

This Yuan Qin didn't use his brain at all.

He pointed to Liu Teng, a close servant beside him: "Tell Yuan Qin and Yuan Yong that they each hit fifty sticks. Yuan Yue will be fined for one year. Li's son-in-law will be demoted by two ranks..."

Gao Zhao's face was strange: The son of the Li family has not even been appointed as an official, so where can he descend?
But the emperor didn't know which Li's son Li was, and he was angry, and he was secretly annoyed that someone dared to reach out to Yuan Zi and Yuan grandson.From this point of view, Li Shizi should also be punished for the sake of imitating others.

Gao Zhao didn't dare to say more because he was afraid of causing trouble.Picked up a few more interesting things and talked with the emperor.

……

Outside the Luhe Gate (the main entrance of the imperial palace, the Meridian Gate), Li Chengzhi and Yuan Yue both knelt on the bluestone slab.

The former was upright, even though his forehead was sweating profusely and his lips were whitened by the sun, his appearance was not disturbed at all.

The latter grinned his teeth, swayed left and right, and muttered incessantly. For a while, he didn't think he would send an imperial guard to fan him with an umbrella. He takes a futon.

But the voice was not loud, at most Li Chengzhi could hear it.

Li Chengzhi was very surprised: the Yuan and Wei courts acted in a way that the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the people?

It was not surprising that he was kneeling by Jin Ling. After all, he had knocked out two of the prince's teeth. If he were to be released to the next dynasty, even if he was not punished by the three clans, he would be decapitated immediately.

And Yuan Yue, who was beaten, also knelt with him, and was so obedient, at most, he could only complain a few words?
As if guessing what he was thinking, Yuan Yue rolled her eyes: "If Brother Huang hadn't been alarmed, do you think I would be so cute?"

Li Chengzhi suddenly realized.

Was it because he was afraid of the emperor?
If you think about it, it's really not surprising.Except for Emperor Xiaowen, all the emperors of the Yuan and Wei dynasties were ruthless when dealing with the clan, and they were many times harsher than those who treated the ministers.

Just look at Yuan Ke and you will know:
Among the seven ministers when he ascended the throne, that is to say, among his seven uncles, there is only one Yuan Yong left. Didn't he survive by being obedient and obedient?
Three of the six brothers have been forced to death by him, and one of the remaining three has been imprisoned, and the other is only able to be perfected by being clever. Only Yuan Yue is an odd number...

Just thinking of this, Li Chengzhi's heart moved.

I vaguely remember that this Yuan Yue seems to be the longest-lived one among Xiaowen's disciples...

He suddenly looked strange: This Master Rabbit is not always pretending to be stupid, is he?
