Chapter 322 Being punished (second update)
His Majesty's temper and patience have always been one of the few good ones. The group of people below, headed by Yun Zheng, made generous statements, their words were sharp, and their mouths were yelling. Then they read the memorial one by one.

While Yun Zheng was elated, he reacted——

They attacked and suppressed Su Qinnian in this way, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was clearly powerful in the court, didn't bring his own courtiers to argue with them?
But the emperor didn't stop in the middle, and after listening to their advice, he felt complacent again, so he only became the prince in order to protect himself wisely and let Su Qinnian fend for himself.

At the same time, he was secretly ridiculing the stupidity of his fellow brother in his heart.

Even if Su Qinnian suffers a setback alone, the foundation of His Royal Highness cannot be shaken, but what about the hearts of the people?

He is so ruthless to his teacher who has been supporting him all the time, and he is too timid to fight for him in court...

Who would dare to follow him wholeheartedly and serve him in the future?
Obviously, the emperor seemed to be aware of this, and when Yun Zheng and the others finally died down, he didn't go to Su Qinnian first, but turned to the prince and asked, "What about you? The second son said so much in one breath, Are you dumb today? Have nothing to say about it?"

His words are not good words, but his tone is casual and leisurely, which will not cause any sense of oppression in anyone's ears.

Obviously, the attitude is not normal!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was standing obediently and quietly with his eyes wide open, took a step forward, gave a deep bow, and said with a straight look: "My son has read the books of sages since childhood, and was taught by the sages, so he naturally thinks that heaven, earth, and king Parents, relatives, and teachers should be respected and respected. The Taifu is the teacher of the minister. As long as he has never committed any crimes or violated the law, the minister should uphold the principle of filial piety even if he is the heir of a country. In this court, in front of the father and all the officials, talk about the principles of the master's family affairs?"

Well, this set of rhetoric is not so much an excuse for his own inaction...

It would be better to say that he directly stabbed Yun Zheng directly.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is well-behaved, with the words "pure, good and harmless" written all over his face.

But Yun Zheng was choked by him, and almost spit out a mouthful of old blood on the spot.

He blushed when he was provoked, and retorted loudly: "His Royal Highness, what he said is wrong. The kings, relatives and teachers of heaven and earth have to come in order. You are the heir, so you should put state affairs first. Is it because Su Taifu once It's you and me, teacher, so let him behave in a manner that is so gentle and disrespectful regardless of right and wrong? Indeed, marrying a lowly woman is not a lawful law..."

Standing in the hall, he openly looked at Su Qinnian: "Your Majesty Su is a prince and a tutor, and he can be regarded as a model figure of the head of civil servants in the Manchu Dynasty. What's more, he has lied to his father and the people of the world about this matter for many years... If you are a commoner, Tai Tuo, it's fine, but now you are so gentle and dishonest, and even deceive the world?"

The focus fell back on Yun Zhan, and his tone became more and more intense: "His Royal Highness does not condemn him, but condones and defends him just because he was once a teacher? When this matter spreads, what do people in the world think? Tell other civil servants to be clean." How can scholars have the face to be with them?"

His Royal Highness Ning made an impassioned speech, while exalting Su Qinnian's status infinitely, and using this to kill him, infinitely exaggerating how much his improper marriage as a daughter-in-law hurt the hearts of the people of the country.

His Royal Highness still boiled the frog in warm water, and retorted casually: "What is deliberate deception? The Taifu married a wife without asking his father to marry him, and there is no law that stipulates that he must disclose the birth history of his future wife before marrying a wife." The eight generations of ancestors have all reported to the father?"

His expression and tone are all peaceful, which is in stark contrast to Yun Zheng's agitation and aggressiveness: "Although Mrs. Su is of a lower background, she has always behaved according to her duties. Why is it so heinous to marry her? Brother Huang To put it this way, I vaguely remember that there are several concubines in your house who are concubines of low status, especially one of the pipa players seems to have been invited by Mr. Zuo's house last year from Le Fang for a banquet. At a glance, she took it back that night, and went to Lefang to take off her registration the next day. According to the emperor's brother... Did you come to worship and report to the father when you took this concubine? I don’t know, are you also deceiving the king?”

It is not a secret in this capital that Yun Zheng is greedy for flowers and lustful.

But no matter how many women he took in in the backyard, as long as there was no scandal of robbing civilian girls or robbing wives, no one would ever question him.

Can--

This is not something glorious after all.

Especially, for a prince who wants to compete for the crown prince...

It's not a big disadvantage, but it's also a minus item!
Yun Zheng hadn't had time to feel ashamed that his private matter of seeking flowers and Lius was brought up in the court, and he realized that Yun Zhan had charged him with a serious crime.

"Is it the same as marrying a regular wife and taking a concubine and adding something to the mansion at random?" In desperation, he couldn't hold himself back and started arguing openly.

"Is there any big difference?" His Royal Highness still had an innocent expression on his face, "Brother, your housework and the Taifu's housework, if you bring them to the court, they are all trivial matters like sesame and mung beans. You If you want to stick to the Taifu's housework, you have to set an example by treating everyone equally. And..."

As he spoke, a smile appeared on the corners of his lips: "In marriages in the world, most people pay attention to the right marriage. There are a lot of people who praise the high and trample the low. What's more, some people abandon their wretched wives and marry another after they become rich. Although Mrs. Su came from a humble family background, the Taifu has always been loyal to her for many years, and never left her. Even yesterday, when you publicly revealed your shortcomings at Madam Changning Hou's birthday banquet and humiliated her by your life experience, the Taifu also stood up frankly. I came out and shared the responsibility with my wife. Loyalty and responsibility are not something you just talk about, but this palace thinks that it is a great fortune for me to have such a caring and caring person as the Taifu in the imperial court."

Just now, Yun Zheng led a dozen or twenty courtiers to attack him personally.

Because no one stood up to refute, they felt like ducks in water, thinking that they had a good reason.

And now-

Just relying on the mouth of His Highness the Crown Prince, they were so angry that none of them dared to show their heads rashly.

Gu Zhan and Yun Zhan had already analyzed this big situation together yesterday, the last thing Su Qinnian had to do with this matter was the wind direction after the public opinion fermented...

Commonly known as, chatter!

This matter is better than Su Qinnian's previous records are all good. Even in these years, Xun Su didn't live with him. On court affairs.

As long as his personal morality is not good, outsiders can use Xun Su's background as an excuse to slander his character without any scruples. Now it is really because of his excellent quality...

No matter how strong Yun Zheng and the others are, as long as they make reasonable rebuttals, he will only kick the iron board in the end.

Yun Zhan shook his robe, then solemnly knelt on the court hall, counting Su Qinnian's achievements over the years.

Yun Zheng still knows the severity. He tried to attack Su Qinnian's personal virtue with all his strength, but he couldn't smear and deny Su Qinnian's achievements in the court. He didn't even dare to interrupt the prince in front of the emperor...

In that way, it will appear that he is too crazy and unscrupulous.

In the end, Yun Zhan kowtowed heavily to the emperor again: "My son is just discussing the matter, and I personally think that whether in public or private, the Grand Tutor has already achieved a worthy of the hearts of the world, and he can be a model for the world. All of this should be obvious to all. There is no need to go to extra effort to clarify the defense, so just kept silent and never stood up."

Xun Su's family background is not good, what is great is that he was ridiculed behind his back.

As long as Su Qinnian is willing to bear this ridicule, what does it matter to anyone else?

"Father..." Yun Zheng couldn't turn his head back when he got into this trouble, and when he was anxious, he wanted to argue again.

"Enough!" The emperor suddenly changed his face at this time, and scolded in a deep voice, "Don't you know when enough is enough?"

All of Yun Zheng's arguments were stuck on that one point. In fact, it was indisputable. Seeing this, he immediately fell silent and knelt down: "Father, son..."

There must be something to say, and you can't just admit it.

"You've said enough just now. You've been the one who's been talking since you came to court today!" But the emperor didn't give him a chance to speak again.

It is true that Yun Zheng launched an attack right after he came to the court, and chose to strike first, but he was not the only one who spoke in the court. The emperor's blatant words in the court immediately aroused all the courtiers who assisted him today. .

There were still people who were eager to try and stand up to help, but now they completely stopped thinking.

The emperor sat high on the dragon chair, with an obvious disappointment on his face, and reprimanded Yun Zheng: "You are a few years older than the prince, and you have read the sage books for several years, but you still haven't learned the principle of respecting the teacher. He is transparent. Regardless of everything else, you should be punished and beaten just for the fact that you openly commented on the teacher's housework in the court without any restraint!"

He didn't reveal that Yun Zheng suppressed Su Qinnian because of the party struggle, nor did he say that his accusations of evading the important ones were actually suspected of slandering the meritorious ministers.

The more sensitive courtiers present, such as Gu Zhan and his like, could immediately understand the emperor's good intentions for releasing water for his own son.

Prince Yun Zhan knows best what his father is thinking, so he ordered in advance not to let the courtiers of his party fight openly in the court, and when he himself was forced to speak by the emperor...

In fact, that set of rhetoric was prepared in advance, and it was aimed at paving the way for the emperor from the beginning.

His father, the emperor, has a softer temperament. He is not really forced to do so. He is actually reluctant to kill every one of his sons.

It is true for the fourth prince Yunheng, it is true for the sixth prince Yunpeng, and now it is the same for the second prince Yunzheng.

Although he disapproves of women's benevolence, as a son of man, with his father's age and physical condition, he can understand and is willing to help.

As for Yun Zheng, he naturally had a comprehensive consideration before going to court today. If he can't control the situation today, what will be the worst outcome...

Now, although he failed to fully understand the emperor's good intentions, he finally understood that the emperor had left him room, so no matter how unwilling he was, he still kowtowed in awe: "Father, please calm down. My son... my son is just because he respects the Taifu too much, so...so he can't accept that a lowly woman will tarnish his reputation for a while, and he doesn't want the Taifu to lose his life, so..."

He was thinking about his words, and he was still thinking about how to try to save some of the situation.

But the emperor didn't give him any chance to show his strength, and directly made a judgment: "It is not the son's fault to teach the father, but I am too old and unable to do what I want, and now I don't have the energy to teach you personally. I will go to court today. After that, you don’t need to go back to Prince Ning’s Mansion. I will ask the Imperial Forest Army to escort you to the imperial mausoleum. The library will sort out the books suitable for you every month and send them there. You stay there honestly and cultivate your mind and character for me, in front of your grandpa. Study well with your ancestors and learn the truth."

Instead of going to face the wall for three days or half a month, but asking the library to pick up books and send them over every month?
Not only Yun Zheng, but also all the courtiers who supported him panicked unanimously.

But thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. No matter how panicked Yun Zheng was, he could only kowtow in fear on his face: "Yes..."

After all, he was still uncertain, and he couldn't hold back in the end, and asked boldly: "Dare to ask the emperor, how long will the son serve the ancestor in the imperial mausoleum?"

"Stay for the first half of the year, and then see the effect!" The emperor made a final decision.

In an instant, Yun Zheng even understood what it means to spin the world.

He was still taking chances, thinking that the emperor would only restrict him for a few months, no matter how the New Year was, he would always be allowed to come back for the reunion dinner and participate in the palace banquet on New Year's Eve.

In the past six months, he was caught off guard.

He looked up at the emperor in amazement, his lips twitched a few times, but he held back under the emperor's stern gaze, and did not speak.

The emperor was teaching his son a lesson as a father, and he neither said that he would cut power nor seize his title. On the contrary, the courtiers were all gagged and unable to stand up and intercede.

The emperor didn't call Su Qinnian's name until the end of this matter: "Su Qing, I don't comment on your housework, but this life is just too short, so with a flick of a finger, since you have decided to take over your wife With your little daughter by your side, treat them well."

This word...

That said, it's intriguing.

At first glance, the first half of the sentence seems to be dissatisfied, and the middle two sentences seem to be pushing himself and others, and he reluctantly accepts it out of feeling, but he clearly admits Xun Su and Yun Xi in the last two sentences. identity of.

Afterwards, when Gu Zhan came to inform Qi Huan with the exact news from the court, Qi Huan thought about the emperor's words carefully and laughed.

"It's hard for His Majesty the Emperor." She said, "From a selfish point of view, he actually doesn't advocate intermarriage between court officials and lowly women, but as a man of temperament and a humane emperor... I think he does too. understandable and understanding.”

Gu Zhan pushed the poured water cup to her hand, and then laughed softly: "Not only are the brothel women, but even among the women in the world, there may not be a few women who can live as transparently as Mrs. Xun. I understand, it’s not that I have to divide people into three, six or nine grades, but most of the time, the background and the long-term living environment will make or destroy a person. They all imitated marrying a brothel woman as their regular wife, and I am afraid that the entire imperial court and officialdom will follow suit."

The so-called wife diplomacy has existed since ancient times, and the old saying of the ancients is true, marrying the wrong daughter-in-law will ruin the family for three generations. Although Gu Zhan's words are not pleasant, it is a cruel fact.

A person needs to rediscover his own position across classes, and he can also position himself as a successful...

Very few!

On the other hand, Jun Wu joked that Yun Zheng even wanted to go to the harem to see Concubine Sheng Xian while saying goodbye, but was unable to say goodbye. He was directly invited into the carriage by the Imperial Forest Army, and by the way, he carried the first cart of books urgently transferred to him from the library. Grandly and honorably went to study in the imperial mausoleum.

His entourage rushed back to the palace to pack him a change of clothes and daily necessities, and told Ye Xunyi the news by the way.

Ye Xunyi was tormented by the poisonous hair in the middle of the night, and she hadn't gathered enough strength to get out of bed at this hour, and she was stunned when she heard the words, which was unexpected.

 Well, our Crown Prince is also a cutie with a tenth level of mouth!
  Although I can't make a bowl of water flat, but as a father who is also an emperor, I think this emperor is indeed a good father-_-||
