Mingshi

Chapter 1131
"I also remembered it. It is also recorded in the "Mengxi Bi Tan" of the Song Dynasty. To Hezhong, the Linlins are offered at the cross-toe. They are as big as a cow, and the whole body is full of Linlins, with a horn on the head."

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized, because Luo Xin and Gao Gong both mentioned a word, Niu.Thinking about the thing I saw just now, it really looks like a cow.

"Is there a conclusion?" Emperor Jiajing asked in a calm voice.

"There is no such thing, but although the Song Dynasty didn't know what it was, they didn't say it was a unicorn."

The hall fell silent again, Luo Xin saw the hesitant look on Emperor Jiajing's face, his heart skipped a beat, could it be possible for Emperor Jiajing to be overjoyed at this time, so he decided to be Qilin.In that case, King Yu would never stand up again.

but……

It is also impossible to expose that this is not a unicorn in front of all officials, saying that this is a fake by King Jing, and that King Jing deceived the king.

As the saying goes, it's hard for an upright official to break up housework!
King Jing is the son of Emperor Jiajing, no matter how bad it is, he is also the son of Emperor Jiajing.In front of the public, he exposed King Jing's deception. Emperor Jiajing must be angry with King Jing, but he must also be angry with Luo Xin.This matter can be discussed with Emperor Jiajing alone, but not in public.

That was a slap in the face of the royal family.

Therefore, Luo Xin said in a concentrated voice: "Your Majesty, this matter should not be taken carelessly, but there is no need to worry. You can ask the adults in the court to look up the scriptures, and it will not be too late to announce it after it is confirmed."

Emperor Jiajing pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Xu Jie will be responsible for this matter. If you have definite evidence, then show it to me."

"I obey the order." Xu Jie came out of the class, but he sighed in his heart: "I'm afraid there will be no results if I drag it on. Luo Xin ruined my own step."

"Luo Xin, come with me and tell me how you helped the disaster and suppressed the bandits."

"The minister obeys the order."

Luo Xin followed Emperor Jiajing back to the side hall, and Emperor Jiajing sent Huang Jin to arrange people to surround the side hall to prevent people from entering, then looked at Luo Dao:
"You can tell that's not a Qilin, right?"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"what is that?"

"That's a rhinoceros, from Tianzhu."

"Rhino? A cow?"

"Ok!"

"Do you have evidence?"

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said: "There is no evidence to prove that it is a cow, but there is evidence of fraud."

"Fake it?" Emperor Jiajing's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"When I saw that thing in the imperial garden, I recognized it as a rhinoceros at a glance. However, there is one thing that I can't be sure about. Because there is no golden rhinoceros, so I took advantage of the time when everyone left, surrounded the The rhino turned around and secretly picked on the rhino, and sure enough..."

"So what?" Emperor Jiajing asked in a concentrated voice.

"Sure enough, it's painted with gold paint."

"Bang!" Emperor Jiajing slapped the imperial book case hard: "Nizi, you dare to deceive the king. Come here."

"Your Majesty!" Huang Jin appeared in front of Emperor Jiajing.

"You go to the imperial garden yourself to see if that rhinoceros is painted with gold paint? No, I will go in person."

Emperor Jiajing wanted to confirm with his own eyes whether his son was deceiving him, and he had to go to the Imperial Garden in person.Luo Xin had no choice but to follow. After arriving at the Imperial Garden, Emperor Jiajing waved everyone away, leaving only Emperor Jiajing, Huang Jin and Luo Xin.Huang Jin was a little worried and said:
"Your Majesty, do you want to leave a few people behind, that..."

"What are you afraid of!" Emperor Jiajing walked towards the rhino and said, "There is a cage, but he can't escape. And isn't there the Ming army god Luo Xin here?"

Emperor Jiajing came to the side of the rhinoceros, stretched out his hand and scratched at the rhinoceros's body, his eyes narrowed, and he saw a piece of the golden scales fell off, revealing gray.Has a strand of gold lacquer inside his nails.

Emperor Jiajing was so angry that he trembled all over: "This rebellious son."

Waiting until Emperor Jiajing returned to the side hall, his face was still livid with anger.Luo Xin and Huang Jin stood in front of Emperor Jiajing, exchanging glances with each other.Huang Jin secretly gave Luo Xin a thumbs up.

After a quarter of an hour passed like this, Emperor Jiajing's generation of emperors finally engraved their emotions.Looking at Luo Xin standing in front of him, appreciation appeared in his eyes.

Why didn't he understand at this moment that Luo Xin didn't tell the fraud in the hall because of the face of the royal family?Thinking of all kinds of Luo Xin before, I felt sorry for Luo Xin.

"No weapon!"

"The minister is here."

"I know you like cleanliness, and you don't want to be an official for you, so I will give you the head of the Imperial Academy. In fact, you haven't been promoted, and you are also a fourth rank. But the advantage lies in cleanliness and a good reputation."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Luo Xin was overjoyed, the seat of the head of the Imperial Academy is not a big official, but it is very important, and it is a very important cornerstone before entering the cabinet.Luo Xin's father-in-law, Lu Tingfang, told him about this matter seriously.It's just that he never had the chance to get it.Now that he finally got this seat, it can be said that after getting this seat, he basically gained a firm foothold in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom, and let other officials see Luo Xin's future, and more officials would defect to him.

From this moment, the Great Ming Dynasty Hall changed from a duo of Xu Jie and Gao Gong to a tripartite confrontation.Luo Xin has the embryonic form of a party.At that time, it was just a prototype, the weakest of the three forces.

"Huang Banban!" Emperor Jiajing looked at Huang Jin again.

"The servant is here."

"Send someone to send that rhino back to King Jing, and say that I gave it to him. It doesn't matter if it's auspicious or not."

"Yes!" Huang Jin went down to make arrangements.

Luo Xinxin understood what Emperor Jiajing meant, and Emperor Jiajing still didn't want to expose this fraudulent matter, so as to lose the face of the royal family, he blurted it out.

After Huang Jin also went out, Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Dao: "No way, Li Shizhen has been treating Zaihou, right?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded.

"How is it?"

A smile appeared on Luo Xin's face and said, "Congratulations Your Majesty, Princess Yu is pregnant."

"Huh?" Emperor Jiajing's face showed joy, and then he said again: "Then why didn't he tell me?"

"Because it is not confirmed whether it is a man or a woman, King Yu did not tell His Majesty."

Emperor Jiajing's face was jumping with joy, he said "yes" several times, and then his face gradually became dignified:

"No, how is the situation of disaster relief and suppression of bandits?"

Luo Xin said calmly: "Your Majesty, the south has been pacified now. There are no bandits, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. In at most another three months, I will definitely pacify the north."

"Then... should I return the 70 taels of silver?"

Luo Xin smiled and said, "It's not a problem at all."

"Then...can you build the Yuxi Palace for me?" Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin with longing in his eyes and said, "You can't let the king of my country live in the side hall?"
