Red House Shoufu

Chapter 409 The Storyteller Interprets the Fifth Son of the Emperor's Life to Punish the Dude

Before the "Emperor of Great Chu" officially started, the emperor saw the practicality of public opinion.

That's all for Wang Xiluan, Zhen Baoyu's reputation was almost infamous within a day.

The teahouses, restaurants, and Qinlou Chuguan in the capital are all discussing the grievances and hatreds of the Jia, Wang, and Zhen families.There was even a fierce conflict in a brothel in Nanchifang City. Two juniors of the Zhen family and the guests in the building went from a quarrel to a big fight.

After the people from Bingmasi came to stop them, everyone in the building cast aside the heartless Zhen family, even the people from Bingmasi secretly spit...

The Zhen family, once unattainable, has now become a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats.The person in charge of the Zhen family in Beijing had no way to snatch Zhen Baoyu from the Wang family, so he could only write a letter asking the head of the family, Zhen Yingjia, to come to Beijing as soon as possible, while trying to contact the Zhen family in the palace to see how to deal with the matter.

Lin Shu would go for a stroll in the street when he had free time these two days. He was not only accompanied by Fuquan who followed him every day, but also the fifth prince Gao Wanxuan and the eunuch Xia Shouzhong who went out of the palace to observe the effect of the tabloid.

They chose an ordinary teahouse in West Market, and the four of them sat on the second floor by the window, listening to the storyteller telling stories written by Lin Shu himself.

"Second Master Bao knelt in front of the palace gate. It was freezing cold, and he was pleading guilty with thorns. Not only was his upper body drenched with blood from the thorns, but he was also hung by the biting cold wind. He has been clothed in rich clothes and fine food for more than ten years. Whoever has suffered such a serious crime, is about to faint. At this time, the palace door creaked and slowly opened, and it was the emperor's most powerful servant, Eunuch Xia, who brought the emperor's oral order: His Majesty's oral order, Xuanrong Guofu Jia Baoyu entered the palace to meet..."

"Master Hou, you even included the old slave!"

Xia Shouzhong happily replaced wine with tea and said to Lin Shu, "This old slave is famous in the capital, the most capable person around the emperor! Hahahaha..."

Lin Shu replied, "Isn't it?"

"Extremely extreme, how could it not be?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, which was also a different kind of alliance.

While eating snacks on the table, Gao Wanxuan applauded or cursed angrily following the ups and downs of the storyteller.

This child has a simple heart, and has long put himself into Jia Baoyu's perspective, and got caught up in the story.

"Our elders in the capital should all know that the Second Master Bao of Rongguo Mansion has a pure heart and is a first-class benevolent person. The girl from the Wang family is not only a fiancée bestowed by the emperor, but also his cousin. On the one hand is the beloved What should I do if I have a cousin who is helpless to bully you?"

"What should I do?" Gao Wanxuan frowned and muttered.

The storyteller slapped the gavel suddenly: "The crime of deceiving the emperor is a serious crime that will kill your head. The second master Bao couldn't bear the punishment of the girl of the Wang family, so he gritted his teeth and committed all the crimes to the emperor. I carried it..."

"Teacher, how will father and emperor deal with Jia Baoyu?"

This kid really fell into it!
Lin Shu said with a smile: "This is just a story. Your Majesty has so many things to do every day, how can he have time to take care of these trivial matters? Continue to listen."

"Snapped!"

The gavel was slapped again, only to hear that the scholar continued to preach: "I have been in the dynasty for a hundred years, and the second master Bao has set a precedent for resisting imperial edicts and disrespect. I saw the big Han general pull out half of the treasured sword from his waist, and the cold light fainted. Flashing, it caused the heart of Mr. Zheng who was also in the hall to feel cold, it's over, is it true that the white-haired person should send the black-haired person?"

"The emperor didn't expect that someone would be so bold that he would not listen to his old man's words. In a fit of rage, he would drag Second Master Bao out and behead him for public display. Unexpectedly, there was a report from outside the palace..."

The storyteller chuckled, and there was a broken chapter.

He picked up the teacup in front of him, took two sips, and drank leisurely.This kind of pie immediately aroused the itching guests, and a big bearded man under the stage slammed the table and said: "You birdie, why are you so tempting, tell me quickly..."

The storyteller was not in a hurry, and still took a sip of tea slowly: "The little old man said that his mouth is dry, and he has finished drinking this tea, why don't he buy a cup of good tea to moisten his throat? Don't worry..."

Ba Da, a silver light flashed, and a piece of silver appeared in front of the storyteller, about two taels in weight.

At this moment, the gentlemen in the audience understood what this bird guy was doing.The key point is out of context, isn't it just asking for a reward to get some living money!

After a while, the storyteller lost his eyes when he laughed, and the table was covered with copper coins and broken silver, and there was even a small golden bean.

The gavel sounded again: "It's a coincidence that the childhood sweetheart of our second master Bao has an older brother who works in the East Palace, named Xue Pan. Second master Bao is pleading guilty in front of the palace gate. Uncle Pan saw that this is not good. If you don’t respect the decree, you’ll lose your head? So Uncle Pan immediately went home to find Miss Xue, and there was a story about Miss Xue entering the palace to see her, and Yuqian begging for her lover..."

Gao Wanxuan was so surprised that he couldn't eat snacks. Xue Baochai didn't have the order of the duchess, and he wasn't a member of the royal family. How could he enter the palace?
But it sounds very interesting, people can't stop...

The storyteller's mouth was sharp, and he finished telling the whole story in a short while.

The ending is of course happy. Xue Baochai pleaded for mercy, willing to live and die with his lover.The emperor was moved by the lovers, and it was naturally a blessing from heaven. He not only pardoned Jia Baoyu's sins, but also bestowed a marriage for the two.

Of course, there are all kinds of fantasy colors in the story, such as Jia Baoyu is the god stone in the sky, Xue Baochai is a grass plant beside the stone, the god stone shelters the grass from wind and rain, and the grass accompanies the god stone to relieve boredom, and slowly develop mutual feelings.

Unexpectedly, one day Xiaocao felt that the catastrophe was coming, she had to reincarnate to experience the world of mortals in order to overcome the catastrophe and become a fairy, but the god stone was worried about Xiaocao, so she begged the empress Nuwa and came to the mortal world.

Now the two have the gift of the emperor in the world, and they are married.With the protection of the emperor's imperial decree, this relationship between the two lives can be regarded as having the best ending.

Not to mention, many people actually believed such a setting.why?Who doesn't know that the Second Master Bao of Rongguo Mansion was born with jade, isn't jade just a stone?
The guests in the building enjoyed listening to it, and the number of storytellers also counted their money. Both parties were extremely satisfied.The only dissatisfied ones, of course, were the members of the Zhen family.

Zhen Baoyu is still hanging on the tree in the county official's mansion, and the Han family has made up their minds to fight the Zhen family to the death.Not to mention that the person in charge of the overall affairs of the Zhen family in Beijing is only a small official of the sixth grade, even the Zhen family in the palace personally sent someone to come, and they were kicked out by the Han family.

Wang Ziteng's reply letter has arrived in the capital, and the Han family is now more confident.

The storyteller packed up his things and was about to leave when a man in brocade clothes came up from the stairs on the second floor, followed by six or seven strong men dressed as domestic servants.

Kacha, a strong man suddenly hit the storyteller's right wrist with a stick in his hand, and the bag containing scattered copper coins and silver coins fell down, and the copper coins and silver coins were scattered everywhere.

"Bad my Zhen family's reputation, and exchanged my Zhen family's words for money, it's really courageous!"

The young man kicked the storyteller in the chest, kicked him to the ground, and stomped on his face, saying viciously: "Since you like to sell your tongue so much, then grandpa, I'll give you an early warning." Let you see what tongue-pulling hell looks like!"

"Come on, pull out his tongue and send it to his home..."

The second floor became extremely quiet in an instant. This group of people were obviously members of the Zhen family, ordinary people, so there was no way they could offend them.

Just now I enjoyed listening to the story and offering rewards. In the story, when the Zhen family was punished by the emperor, they applauded a lot. This is a terrible situation. Maybe the young master of the Zhen family will take their money after punishing the storyteller. The tongue is talking!

escape?Those men with swords and sticks were guarding the stairs!

Seeing that the storyteller's tongue was about to be cut off, with a bang, the teacup in Lin Shu's hand hit the Zhen family boy's forehead.

Lin Shu likes to drink hot tea in winter, it is best to brew it with boiling water, and then slowly smell the taste of the tea.

Nourishes...

"Who? Where did the brat dare to attack you, Uncle Zhen?"

"presumptuous!"

Fu's whole body method changed, and he appeared in front of Zhen Jiazi's eyes at an extremely fast speed, and it was two slaps.

The applause not only stunned Zhen Jiazi, even the guards behind him didn't react.

"Innocently oppressing the common people, the Zhen family is really majestic!"

Lin Shu picked up a teacup again, and slowly made tea for himself again.Zhen Jiazi, who was covering his face, was still in a daze, and couldn't tell who was speaking.

But he heard a sentence clearly: "Since Zhen Yingjia can't teach you well, then go to Shuntian Mansion to study "Chu Lu Shu Yi"!"

Shuntian Mansion?How could people from Jinling Zhen's family go to such a place!
"Grandpa, I am Zhen Baochen from the Zhen family. My father is a dignified third-rank official. Who dares to arrest me?"

Zhen Baochen did have the confidence to shout, because his father was the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia. Although his mother was only a concubine, Zhen Baoyu was the only son of the Zhen family. Among the concubines, he was the most loved by Zhen Yingjia.

"Third-rank official? Heh, Zhen Yingjia's son is indeed a raccoon dog. Fuquan, slap your mouth!"

According to Lin Shu's original plan, the group of Zhen's family members should be thrown into the prison of Shuntian Mansion.

But I didn't expect that this person would dare to call himself a grandfather in front of himself and Gao Wanxuan. One was the county lord of the country, and the other was the emperor's son. What would you look like when you were a grandpa?

Fuquan raised his hand and was about to slap his mouth, but Zhen Baochen immediately hid behind the guards with sharp eyes.

After a few swipes, the guards of Zhen's family immediately drew their sabers, but the two people in front had only half drawn their sabers before they were kicked out by Fuquan's two feet.

There were two sounds of tables and chairs being smashed under the stairs, and then a dozen well-dressed guards rushed up from downstairs.

These are all disguised by the Dragon Guards to protect Gao Wanxuan. As soon as they came up, they surrounded Zhen Baochen and others.

After the leader glanced at Zhen Baochen, he quickly walked up to Gao Wanxuan, bowed and cupped his fists: "The future is late, please punish me, Your Highness!"

Wow, when Zhen Baochen heard the word Your Highness, he immediately knew that he had caused trouble, and it was a catastrophic disaster.His legs were no longer in control, and he knelt limply on the ground.

Tremblingly looked at Gao Wanxuan, it was so familiar!

Gao Wanxuan often followed Prince Gao Wancheng to meet the court officials. The Zhen family has been famous for many years, and Zhen Baochen met several times.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhen Baochen recognized Gao Wanxuan.The five princes of the current dynasty, the five princes who are favored by the overlord, the emperor, and the crown prince!

Looking left and right, Zhen Baochen trembled even more.

The white-faced, beardless, smiling middle-aged man who looked harmless to humans and animals was none other than Xia Shouzhong, the emperor's confidant eunuch.

The one who hit him with a teacup just now was Lin Shu, Marquis of Yongfeng, the only civil servant of the Kingdom, the hereditary county marquis of the Kingdom.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. The villain has eyes but no eyes, and disturbed His Highness. For the sake of our ancestors, please forgive me!"

dong dong dong...

Zhen Baochen is very clever.

He knew that Gao Wanxuan respected the Supreme Emperor very much, and if he wanted to ask for forgiveness at this time, the best way was to bring out the ancestor of the Zhen family, Mrs. Feng Sheng who was proclaimed by the Supreme Emperor.

It's a pity that Gao Wanxuan had just seen with his own eyes how Zhen Baochen oppressed the people, and the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.

Not to mention that Zhen Baochen mentioned Mrs. Fengsheng, even if Mrs. Fengsheng was here, he couldn't stop him from upholding justice for the common people.

"A ruler is a boat; a common man is water. Water carries a boat, and water capsizes it. Teacher, can this matter be left to the students?"

Gao Wanxuan suppressed the anger in his heart, and bowed sideways to Lin Shu.

After hearing the first half of Gao Wanxuan's words, Lin Shu knew that his student was going to make an example of the Zhen family.

At the end of the year and spring is approaching, many wealthy children have come to the capital recently, and things that oppress the common people have happened from time to time, so it is time to give them some warnings.

"Your Highness let go and do it, the recent wind in the capital is a bit strong!"

After Gao Wanxuan got Lin Shu's affirmation, his slightly childish face was full of solemnity. He recalled the regulations in "Chu Lu Shu Yi", and when he was about to speak, he suddenly stopped.

why?Because according to the law, human life is not involved, Zhen Baochen doesn't even have to sit in jail, just pay money to atone for his sins!

Although the Zhen family does not have a title, there is a concubine Zhen in the palace, and that is the family of noble relatives.

Zhen Baochen, as a son of a noble relative, injured a commoner and was fined silver for minor injuries, twenty sticks and one year of imprisonment for serious injuries, and he could pay silver for atonement.

For the first time, Gao Wanxuan was shaken and doubted the fairness of "Chu Lu Shu Yi".

"Your Highness, move the knife in front of the king, according to the theory of assassinating the king and killing the king, beheaded!"

Xia Shouzhong is worthy of being the No. 1 emperor's confidant in the inner court, and he guessed Gao Wanxuan's embarrassment just by guessing.

Lin Shu was amazed at the skill of giving eye drops to people. A crime that can be paid for atonement has suddenly risen to the level of assassinating a king.

The light in Gao Wanxuan's eyes flashed away, he shook his head and said in a low voice: "Although I wish I could kill these beasts who bully the good, but their crimes are not enough to kill them, I can't just rely on my likes and dislikes Come and condemn others!"

Lin Shu smiled gratifiedly, his teaching for the past two years has borne fruit.

I saw Gao Wanxuan walking slowly to Zhen Baochen who was lying on the ground trembling all over, and said coldly: "Zhen Baochen, as a son of a noble family, oppresses goodness, beats up common people, and is sentenced to twenty years with a stick and one year in prison. Hold on, this is the punishment personally imposed by the prince, no money is allowed to atone for the crime."

Gao Wanxuan kicked Zhen Baochen, who was kneeling on the ground, and warned him: "This prince likes the stories told by this storyteller, and I will come to listen to them often in the future. If something happens to him one day, this prince will hang your head." At the gate of Zhen's house."
