Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 193 The world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not ancient

Although he didn't agree with the emperor's actions, Wei Zheng still led the imperial decree respectfully and rushed to the Song State Mansion in Chongrenfang. The current Xiao Mansion was in stark contrast to the bustling scene in the past.

Sitting in the courtyard, Xiao Yu with disheveled hair was sipping wine, her demeanor as a gentleman was gone.Mrs. Xiao, Princess Xiangcheng and others standing in the distance were neither advancing nor retreating. Standing in place seemed very awkward.

But when Wei Zheng led the servants into the yard, the nervousness of everyone in the yard rose to their throats.Especially when Mrs. Xiao looked at Wei Zheng's face as black as the bottom of a pot, her heart was pounding. Could it be that what my aunt said didn't work?
Crack, Xiao Yu broke the jug in his hand, pointed at Wei Zheng and the others who were coming towards him and shouted: "Wei Zheng, you are here to ask for a confession again, I have nothing to say. If you must give the old man If you are convicted of any crime, that’s fine, just take the old man to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for interrogation.”

"Xiao Shiwen, your way of relying on the old and selling the old is useless to me. Your disciples have already been recruited in order to get rid of the crime. Do you think that if you want to convict you, I still need your confession?"

Wei Zheng turned around and took the imperial decree held by his attendants: "The imperial edict said: Doctor Yushi, Doctor Jin Ziguanglu, Duke Xiao Yu of the Song Dynasty, disregarding the emperor's favor, depose all officials and ranks from now on, and send them back to their hometowns. If there is no order, they will not return to Beijing. "

After reading out the imperial decree, Wei Zheng cast a glance at Xiao Yu who was holding the imperial decree in his hand and said, "You should be thankful that your majesty is magnanimous and the crown prince is kind. If I act like your courtier, I will inevitably go to Dongshi." .
Three days later, ten miles outside Chang'an, a convoy of dozens of people was standing on the road. No one would have thought that such a trembling convoy belonged to the very top Song Guogong.

"Father, no one will come, it's windy outside, let's get in the car." Looking at his father Xiao Rui who was getting haggard with each passing day, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

You must know that my father has been upright and upright in his life, and he has never flattered him, even a tyrant like Yang Guang is very respectful.But his mistake was that he chose the wrong student. Wei Wang Li Tai appeared to be a virtuous and virtuous corporal, but in reality he was treacherous.

Let's just talk about this time, I went to see him several times, but he felt that it was not an evasion, and the disciples who traveled to and from the mansion on weekdays also disappeared.

But just when Xiao Yu nodded and was about to get on the carriage, a group of hussars came galloping from a distance, accompanied by the words "Dong Song, go slowly".When the cavalry approached, he took a closer look and found that the leaders were actually Dugu Mou and Heng Lian.

It's not surprising that Dugu seeks to come to Xiao Rui, but what does Henglian come here for?

"The general will meet Song Gong at the end."

"Are you here to see off the old man?"

Seeing Xiao Yu's silver hair fluttering in the wind, Dugu Mou couldn't help sighing, who would have thought that the prime ministers of the Wude and Zhenguan dynasties would be in such a miserable situation.

"The family ancestor asked the younger generation to see off the father-in-law. The mountains are high and the water is long, so take care all the way."

"Okay, okay, please turn the general into an aunt, Xiao Yu thank you here." After speaking, he bowed his hands to Dugu Mou to express his gratitude.He knew that if it hadn't been for this time and if there hadn't been for the mediation of the Dugu family, the emperor might not have let go easily.

"At the end of the day, His Highness the Crown Prince ordered me to send them off. Here is a copy of His Highness's handwriting, and at the same time, two cloaks for adults and sons to protect against the cold on the road. In addition, His Highness said that Princess Xiangcheng's mother and son will be taken care of by the East Palace today. Can Xiao Shaoqing Take care of housework with peace of mind, don't worry."

Hearing that Li Chengqian brought the princess, mother and son into the East Palace, Xiao Yu's face turned red, and she was reduced to the point of pity by her opponent.

Hey, that's all, then nodded, and bowed to Heng Lian: "General, please tell Your Highness, I thank you.".
"Father, don't you want to read the prince's handwriting?" Xiao Rui pointed to the letter in his father's hand and asked, he was really curious about what the prince was going to say to his father.

The wind knows the strong grass, and the sturdy knows the Chengchen.

A brave man will know righteousness, and a wise man will be benevolent.

This poem was written by the emperor in recognition of his help in times of crisis after he ascended the throne. Today, the crown prince copied this poem and presented it as a gift to show that the royal family of Li and Tang will not forget his achievements in the past.

"Father, father, who is this?" Hearing his son's call, Xiao Yu wiped his tears with his sleeve and handed the handwriting to him, then opened the car window and looked at Chang'an City in the distance.

Hey, "Father, you really made a mistake this time. Look at you assisting King Wei, and then compare yourself to the crown prince. Why did you come here?"

Anyway, Xiao Rui has always looked down on Li Tai, thinking that the little fat man's nostrils are upturned because he is the prince and has been trained by a famous teacher.

On the other hand, Li Chengqian's work is far-fetched, and sometimes it is inevitable that the scholar-bureaucrats will not tolerate it, but his mind is not comparable to that little fat man like King Wei.

Take my father and Wei Zheng as an example. From the first year of Zhenguan to now, I have to go to the emperor's house to get a copy almost every month. What is this for?But looking back, didn't they speak for you in the emperor's place?

"Forget it, that's fine. The old man has worked hard for the country all his life. Now he is in his sixtieth year. What else can I say. Read books and raise flowers to spend the rest of your life."

Xiao Yu still meant to tell his son that he was the one who plotted against Li Tai first, and if he wanted to blame him, he would blame himself for being deceived by the lard, and wanted to overthrow Fang Du and others and stand in the seat of Pu She again.

"Taichang Temple is an idle job, but Kailai is the most suitable for you now. In the future, you should be more careful when you are serving in the court, especially for those disciples of your father. Today they are making trouble, and it is inevitable that they will not use you in the future." article."

Now it seems that if there is regret medicine in this world, Xiao Yu will buy a pair even if he loses his fortune.What kind of students did he teach? Fortunately, he ran around for them.

As a result, don't mention respecting the teacher, and taking the initiative to report him one by one, he was really blind.

"Father, don't worry, my son never likes to compete with others for profit, and I don't have much contact with your former disciples and old officials. Besides, Xiangcheng is here, and you know that the prince still values ​​his sister very much."

It's not that Xiao Rui is talking nonsense here, but judging from Li Chengqian's discord with Xiao Yu because of Princess Xiangcheng's many times, the prince still takes good care of his sisters, and the things he sent on New Year's Day even surpassed the emperor's rewards.

Just look at Yang Shidao and Yang Gongren, who are also against the prince, you will know, the confinement of the confinement, the exile of the exile, that one gets it.

The purpose of the crown prince taking Xiangcheng mother and son into the East Palace is self-evident. The reason why he did this is not only to warn the Lanling Xiao family not to be contemptuous.

The more important thing is to warn those officials in the court who have grievances with Xiao Yu, no matter what, Princess Xiangcheng is the eldest daughter of the emperor, the eldest sister of the prince, and behind her stands the entire Li Tang royal family.

"Well, that's good, that's good."
