The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 176 The Crime of Disrespect

When the two of them got up, it was really high in the sun, which made Song Yunting really feel a little embarrassed.

Wang Ling'er also jokingly said that Zhao Xu had changed a lot, and he came in as a handsome young man, but he didn't expect that he would come out as a delicate little girl.

It made Song Yunting lower his head even lower. Fortunately, the three of them are not jealous people, and the four of them soon reached an agreement.

Zhao Xu felt relieved when he saw this, and went to see Zhao Kuangyin without eating anything, leaving the four of them to play.

"I heard that you brought another woman back last night. You need to pay attention to this, as long as you like your family to be clean."

Zhao Kuangyin said earnestly that while he cared about national affairs, he also cared about his son's personal affairs. Maybe this is the so-called pity for the world's parents.

"Don't act like you don't care. Your status is different now. Many people want to curry favor with you. You have to understand this."

That's right, now Zhao Xu is the crown prince and heir to the Song Dynasty. Who would want to have a relationship with the crown prince.

If a girl at the lowest level can win the favor of His Royal Highness, she can fly up the branches and become a phoenix.

There are quite a few people like this, and of course there are some people who are speculators, so Zhao Kuangyin had to remind him.

"Father, don't worry, do you think I am that lustful person? Besides, this time was completely an accident."

In your eyes, I am a womanizer. This is a great injustice to me. I really don't.

"Besides, I didn't know that he was a woman before. I just thought he was more capable of letting him enter the palace to talk to her. Who knew that such a thing would happen."

Then Zhao Xu slept through his relationship with Song Yunting, especially her unusual insight.

"Oh, I didn't expect a little girl to have such insight. It's a pity that she is not a man, otherwise I really want to make good use of her."

Zhao Kuangyin also admired Song Yunting a lot. Such people are not common, but it is a pity that she is a woman.

Zhao Xu also thought of allowing women to participate in politics, but he didn't say it out loud. No matter how enlightened Zhao Kuangyin was, it was impossible to set this precedent.

Because there are lessons ahead, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi asked his queen to participate in politics, and what happened, he gave her all the country of the Tang Dynasty.

Although this Song Yunting probably does not have Wu Zetian's ambition, and even more likely does not have Wu Zetian's ability, who dares to take a risk.

"Okay, I won't ask you these things anymore. By the way, whose daughter is she?" She was still relieved of her son.

"It's a coincidence that she is Song Yanwo's daughter, so she's well-connected, right?"

"Song Yanwo is the commander of the navy. I still have a good impression of him. I know him well. He is still qualified to be my in-law."

"In this case, I can reuse him, and I can rest assured that he is just such a daughter."

What do you mean he is just such a daughter, I can use him with confidence, don't you think he has several daughters and sons and you don't need him?
This cannot be blamed on Zhao Kuangyin, he was also frightened by the political situation since the Five Dynasties. Is Shi Jingtang still in-law with Later Tang?

In the end, it's not that he took over the land of the later Tang Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin, who is selfish in this troubled world, has no choice but to
"By the way, Shi Shouxin and others came to the palace yesterday to apologize to me, saying that his son assaulted you and was locked up by you. What's going on?"

Zhao Kuangyin also wondered that Shi Shouxin and Wang Shenqi were able to become important ministers yesterday.A smoke ran to the palace, and when he saw Zhao Kuangyin, he knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times.

It made Zhao Kuangyin unclear, so what happened, his eyes were really darkened, and he didn't know the situation.

After they talked about it, it turned out that some of their children in Taoxianglou, for some reason, spoke rudely to the prince.

You must know that in this era, it is a serious crime to dare to speak rudely to princes and nobles, let alone a prince, the prince of a country?

So they were naturally imprisoned, and they didn't know what the punishment was, but it was inevitable that they would suffer some crimes.

Relying on his high position and authority, Shi Shouxin even went to patrol the city camp for dignitaries, posing as if he would release them quickly.

But I have been busy for a long time.His son is not here.It is said that he was taken away by the prince's Jin Yiwei.

Jin Yiwei is the prince's pro-army. It is said that the people inside are well-trained, even the imperial army can't compare.

Shi Shouxin, Wang Shenqi and others immediately came to Jin Yiwei's office again, trying to scare them with his authority.

But people don't dump you at all, why should I listen to you, even if His Majesty came down, we wouldn't necessarily listen.

We are in the army, we are on a mission, what do you want to do, stay where it is cool, don't be an eyesore here.

They had no choice but to fight with Jin Yiwei, so they had to ask the emperor for help, and immediately entered the palace to see the emperor.

After understanding the cause and effect, Zhao Kuangyin also had an idea in his heart, maybe these boys offended his son.

He knew that Zhao Xu had a sense of proportion in doing things, and he would never provoke trouble for no reason. Now he didn't know exactly what it was, so he could only say:

"Brothers, come and sit down first."

"I think there may be a misunderstanding in it. Is there any misunderstanding here? After the prince comes back, I will ask the ins and outs and make plans."

Seeing that they were about to stand up again, Zhao Kuangyin waved his hands:
"Brothers, don't worry. You also know that Jin Yiwei is the Prince's personal army, and he is the only one who can command it. If I rashly intervene in the Prince's face, it will be difficult, right?"

I haven't heard that the emperor can't deal with his son, and he wants to save face for his son.

Although they thought so in their hearts, they didn't dare to say it, so they had to keep silent, although the emperor had a close relationship with them.

But no matter how close the relationship is, can it be compared with father and son? The emperor is sleeping like this, what can you say!
"Xu'er, just us father and son, tell me what's going on?" Zhao Kuangyin also wanted to know what happened.

"It's nothing. These sons of the founding heroes are really arrogant and domineering, and they don't take anyone seriously."

Speaking of these people, Zhao Xu really didn't have a good impression of them. Relying on the shadow of his father's generation, they were domineering, which was what he looked down on the most.

"It wasn't a big deal at first. But they even insulted you, so I couldn't stand it anymore. I locked them up and made them suffer."

Zhao Xu felt that the punishment for these people was light. If they really got on the line, it would be a crime of disrespect for them to insult the emperor.

"Actually, the boy just locked them up. If it weren't for the relationship between the father and those few, they would have died long ago. For the crime of disrespect, would they still be alive?"

Zhao Xu had only seen this word in books and movies and TV dramas before. It was so disrespectful, but now he actually used this word, which is really unexpected.

He also looked specifically at what constituted disrespect and how serious the crime was.

In fact, the so-called crime of "great disrespect" in ancient times refers to the disrespectful words and actions of the subjects of the ruling and opposition parties towards the current emperor or royal family. This is the crime of great disrespect.

It's okay for you to scold an ordinary person, but if you are targeting the royal family, then I'm sorry, this is a crime of disrespect.

The crime of gross disrespect is written into the laws of a dynasty, guaranteed by the law, and followed by the law, so as long as it is committed, it is a felony.

The law stipulates that once a subject commits a crime of disrespect, regardless of the severity, he will be sentenced to severe punishment, which means that he will definitely be sentenced to death.

It can be seen how terrible this crime of disrespect is. Who would have thought that someone would be sentenced to death for a word or an action?

Zhao Xu still clearly remembered that he had seen a TV series called "Legendary Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang", in which there was a punishment for "disrespect".

Although it is recorded in history that Zhu Yuanzhang was an emperor who was good at killing heroes, this time he killed an ordinary person.

It is said that on this day Ming Taizu Zhu Chongba took advantage of the export festival and wanted to see the excitement in the city.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, guessing lantern riddles is the most popular. Lanterns are hung in the streets and alleys, with riddles written on them, making it a lively scene.

Lao Zhu was also very happy, which showed that the people under the notice were doing very well, otherwise, where did the excitement come from?

When Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, he saw a mysterious face on a lantern, and immediately went back to the palace gloomy.

After returning to the palace, he immediately ordered his secret service to arrest and interrogate all the people in that alley to find out who made the lantern.

Hundreds of people were arrested this time, and they were finally found out, and that person was finally executed.

What puzzle did he see.It turned out that such a scene was painted on a lantern:
"On it is a woman, holding a watermelon in her arms, sitting heroically on a horse, but the horse's hoof is very big."

The prince Zhu Biao asked why he did this. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I have committed a crime of disrespect by blaspheming the queen. Can you still say that it can be forgiven?"

It turned out that the riddle was about Ma Xiuying, the empress of the current dynasty, and the watermelon in her arms referred to Huaixi, and Empress Ma was from Huaixi.

The horse's hoof is particularly big, and it is said that Queen Ma's feet are big, which annoyed Zhu Yuanzhang, thinking that this is satirizing the queen, committing a crime of disrespect, and that person also caused his death.

The punishment for the crime of disrespect is so severe that it is the most severe in ancient times.

"Father, I actually want to take this opportunity to beat up the heroes, so that they don't feel that they are so great."

"The other thing is to let them know that if they can't even discipline their sons well, what qualifications do they have to be in the court? These people will be dealt with sooner or later."

　Today, I am not in the mood to code words. My uncle with advanced cancer is now entering the countdown of his life. Hey
