Long live Emperor Wu!

Changsun Wuji stood up, pondered for a while, and said:

"Your Majesty, I think Master Chu is suspected of buying it by force, but the crime of stealing other people's property is still too serious.

Because after all, buying it at the official price is not a small sum. How can there be such a waste of money?Please give your Majesty a clear warning. "

When Li Shan heard this, he softly said "hmm" and said:

"That is to say, Lord Taiwei also thinks that Chu Suiliang's behavior is inappropriate. Presumably most of the other adults think so too, right?"

He continued without taking a breath:
"I also think so. If he is sentenced to prison according to the article of seizing land, it is indeed a bit excessive. In this case, it is definitely appropriate to demote him for one year and give him a small punishment."

When Wei Siqian heard this, he was very dissatisfied. After all, this was not in line with his expected results. He was so excited that he shouted "Your Majesty".

Li Shan quickly raised his hand to stop him and said:

"Zhang Ce, the young minister of Dali Temple. As an important official of Dali Temple, he ignored the facts, ignored the rights and interests of the people, and blindly favored his colleagues. This was dereliction of duty. He was removed from the post of young minister of Dali Temple and demoted to the position of governor. Where to go will be decided by the Minister. Decision will be made after discussion.

The same goes for Chu Suiliang. He was demoted to the position of governor for one year. After the time was up, he would be reinstated. Where to go, let Shangshu and others discuss it. "

After saying that, he turned his head and gave Xu Huaian, who was standing beside him, a look. Xu Huaian took a step forward and announced his withdrawal from the court.

Wearing the imperial robes, he walked down the stairs majestically and dignifiedly. After passing the door of the side hall, he heard the footsteps and turned sideways to look back.

I happened to see Wei Siqian standing by himself, with a look of dullness and resentment on his serious Chinese character face.

Not far away from him, many people were surrounding Chu Suiliang. Their expressions were either comforting or sighing.

He turned to Xu Huaian and said:
"Let Wei Siqian come over. I have something to say to him."

Xu Huaian went.

He held the sleeves of the broad emperor's robe again and took a few steps forward. Under the sleeves, he still held the blood-red glass bead in his hand, thinking and turning it as he habitually did.

Wei Siqian came and saluted the young emperor respectfully.

Li Shan saw his sad face, so he smiled gently and said:
"Wei Aiqing, I want to thank you for your loyal duties, settling an injustice, and curbing the corruption of the court officials. With you here, if the others want to use your power to bully others, they may have to think twice."

Wei Siqian suddenly raised his head and saw the emperor's broad and handsome features, looking at him tenderly through the jade algae on the emperor's crown.

He suddenly felt a warm current arise in his heart, and the grievance of being isolated turned into tears, and his eyes instantly turned red.

He choked up, lowered his eyes gratefully, and said straightforwardly:

"But Your Majesty, Chu Suiliang's punishment was too light. He should have been demoted and imprisoned, but he was just demoted? After being demoted, can an official as big as the governor come back again?
The price is so light that it won't act as a deterrent. Maybe he will dare next time. "

Li Shan lowered his eyes slightly and said solemnly:
“He is an auxiliary minister and a veteran of two dynasties, so being able to demote him is already a very good result.

Besides, the mistake he made was indeed of little harm. I would ask him to pay the price difference to that person later. "

After he finished speaking, he said seriously:
"Wei Aiqing, I still need you to continue to do your job well and not to act excessively, otherwise it will easily cause the ministers to attack you unanimously.

After all, I, the emperor, also need the support of the people. If all the officials are unanimously opposed, I can't protect you, do you understand? "

When Wei Siqian heard this, his solemn face rose, he glanced at Emperor Li Shan with tearful eyes, and responded:
"I...understood."

……

……

Zhaoqing Hall.

Li Shan entered the room and saw Wu Rou sitting in front of the window in a daze with her back to him.He walked over quietly and suddenly stretched out his hand to hug her.

Wu Rou was in a trance. She was startled subconsciously, turned her head, and was hit in the eye by the jade algae bead curtain on his crown.

She covered her eyes and laughed, saying:
"Why was no one notified of your Majesty's arrival? I was shocked, hahaha..."

Li Shan raised his head, gave up his crown, and said:

"I just want to see what you usually do."

Wu Rou opened his arms around her, her eyes full of love, and stood up to untie his crown.

The strap was tied around the chin, her fingers gently brushed his Adam's apple and said:
"Your Majesty is in a good mood today. He doesn't feel tired of being an emperor. He still has the heart to joke around in the imperial robes. What good things happened in the court?"

Li Shan gently held her arms with both hands, stood upright and let her play with her, closed his eyes slightly and said:
"It's not a good thing, it's just a little more peace of mind. You know that two months ago, Wei Siqian from Yingxian County was transferred to be the censor. Today, he actually made a copy of Chu Suiliang's book and accused him of forcibly buying other people's fields.

The evidence is conclusive and irrefutable. Of course... Chu Suiliang may not have taken this matter seriously.

When Chu Suiliang wanted to buy land, why did he only buy the 35? I'm afraid he bought it at the official price before, but no one sued him, and no one came to me.

What I did today at least proved that someone had done my eyes, so I felt a little more relaxed. Otherwise, I would always feel like my eyes were covered, and I wouldn't be able to sleep well at night. "

Wu Rou took off his crown and shouted outside:
"Come in."

The door outside opened, and six maids carrying trays walked in and stood beside Wu Rou.

Wu Rou lifted the crown to the side, and a maid came forward, holding a tray for her to put down, followed by the belt and robe.

The two palace maids helped to take off the large and solemn clothes, folded them vertically respectfully, and placed them on the plate. Finally, they took away the boots, leaving only a pair of inner clothes and hands. The glass beads inside.

Wu Rou wanted to laugh when she saw him holding it in her hand like this. She curled her lips, then took it from his hand and put it on the table nearby.

The maids carried the trays and went out again.

Li Shan, who was standing obediently, straightened his cuffs. Seeing that everyone had gone out, he walked to the bed and fell down on his back.

Wu Rou raised her sleeves and covered her mouth, walked to him and sat down, saying:
"Kuroro... I never thought you would look like this before."

Li Shan turned around, lay on her lap again, and said:

"What's unexpected about this? There are times when I'm tired."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and touched her belly, his movements gentle and careful, as if he was afraid of disturbing someone's dream.

She was four months pregnant, and her belly was slightly swollen, but it wasn't obvious even though she was wearing a palace skirt.

"It would be great if I were a prince. You have to live up to your expectations, little guy. My father is counting on you to escape from the sea of ​​suffering..." Li Shan said softly.

Wu Rou poked his forehead with a finger and said:
"What if it's a daughter and you don't love her anymore?"

Li Shan raised his head to look at her and said:
"How could it be possible? As long as it is our child, we will love it very much."

When Wu Rou heard this, she looked into the void with a look of expectation and said:

"Actually, I want a daughter...a daughter like Princess Jinyang. It would be great if you and I could have a daughter like that."

Li Shan fell silent after hearing this, with a look of imagination in his eyes. After a while, he said:
"That's really good..."
