The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 176 Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty’s Considerations
into the night.

It rained heavily on Weiyang Palace.

The officials of the Han Dynasty who had been waiting outside for a long time were finally summoned by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and entered the Qilin Hall.

The atmosphere in the hall was terrifyingly cold. The ministers stood in the hall, not even daring to breathe hard.

After a long time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said indifferently: "Zhang Tang, please tell me."

Zhang Tang came out and told the story of Wei Qing and Princess Pingyang meeting at Linhe Restaurant today, and Xia Houpo committed suicide with a sword.

After saying this, he cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the supervisory censor Li Tong impeached Wei Qing for having an affair with Princess Pingyang. Xiahou Po fought with Wei Qing and was defeated, so he committed suicide in shame and anger."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty remained silent.

Li Tong, the supervisory censor, came out, cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Grand Sima General Wei Qing despises the national law, has corrupted personal ethics, and has an affair with another woman. The crime is worthy of beheading!"

"Your Majesty, please enforce the law and kill Wei Qing!"

Huo Qubing hurriedly came out of the queue, clasping his fists and saying: "Your Majesty! The matter has not yet been clearly investigated, how can we just rely on words to determine it?"

Li Tong retorted: "The evidence is conclusive, Wei Qing did not refute it, nor did he explain why he went to meet Princess Pingyang privately."

"If Xiahou Po was not ashamed and angry, why would he use his life to prove that Wei Qing had an affair with his wife?"

Generals such as Gongsun Ao and Li Ju came out one after another to pray to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for his understanding.

Everyone is waiting for the outcome of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said expressionlessly: "Now that the evidence is conclusive, what are we waiting for?"

"Come here! Kill Wei Qing according to law!"

Huo Qubing looked frightened and hurriedly came out of the queue and said, "Uncle!"

"Ok?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hummed in a low voice, and Huo Qubing quickly changed his words: "Your Majesty!"

"General Wei, in the three battles of Gaoque, Longcheng, and Dingxiang, he conquered western and eastern Liaoning and drove out the Huns. He made great achievements in battle and made great contributions to the country. Even if he makes mistakes, please show mercy to your majesty."

Huo Qubing didn't want to go to Wei Qing to reverse the case for the time being, he wanted to save Wei Qing first.

Gongsun Ao and others also came out to support Huo Qubing.

Internal historian Shi Qing and other civil servants tried their best to let Huo Qubing clarify the law and kill Wei Qing.

The two sides were quarreling fiercely in the DPRK.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had been listening to the quarrels in the court indifferently and did not interrupt them.

When the voices of the ministers became quieter, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Then in three days, Wei Qing will be exiled to Nanyue for three thousand miles."

After saying that, he stood up and left the Qilin Hall.

……

Wei Qing was temporarily detained in the prison of Tingwei Mansion.

After Huo Qubing went to court, he went to report the situation to Weining as soon as possible.

"Xiao Ning, what should I do?"

Wei Ning told Huo Qubing not to worry. After comforting Huo Qubing, he asked him to go back to the mansion first, and then sat alone in the study to think.

Zhao Ce walked over quietly and reported the investigation results to Weining.

Nothing could be found, and Princess Pingyang could not access it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked the imperial army to seal Princess Pingyang's mansion.

Wei Ning rubbed his forehead tiredly, and a maid from outside came over again, handed Wei Ning a letter, and said: "Master Marquis, a letter from the palace."

Wei Ning opened it suspiciously, thinking it was a letter from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

After all, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't let him enter the palace today, which was too weird, and he couldn't figure out what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty meant.

But after opening the letter, Wei Ning was dumbfounded.

"Please, Your Majesty, save Zhong Qing."

Signed: Wei Zifu!

is her?She actually wrote to me?
Who is Wei Zifu?Isn’t her relationship with His Majesty better than mine?

Isn’t it more convenient for her to speak to His Majesty than it is for me?Easier?

Why did she ask me to beg His Majesty?Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doesn't even see me, how can I save General Wei?
How can I have such great ability to convince the angry Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?
Wei Ning really couldn't understand why Wei Zifu wrote to her. She seemed to be sure that as long as I begged Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing would be pardoned.

Why?

Wei Ning put the letter aside, thought about it, and burned the letter.

Then he stood up, held an umbrella, and walked towards the prison of Tingwei Mansion.The people in Tingwei Mansion did not stop Wei Ning from visiting Wei Qing this time, which surprised Wei Ning.

"General."

Wei Ning stood outside the cell, looked at Wei Qing, and asked, "Why do you want to see Princess Pingyang today?"

There must be a reason, and Wei Ning needs to figure out Wei Qing's purpose.

Wei Qing took a deep look at Wei Ning and said, "It's nothing, so don't ask about it."

Wei Ning said: "But you are going to be exiled! How could I not ask?"

Wei Qing smiled and said, "So what?"

Wei Ning said: "Nothing! I just don't want to see you suffer! I don't want you to suffer! That's all!"

"You brought me here. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"I want to save you!"

"How can I save you if you don't say anything now?"

Wei Qing smiled happily and said, "Okay, good boy."

"fine."

His face became slightly solemn and he asked Wei Ning: "Has your Majesty allowed you to enter the palace tonight?"

Wei Ning shook his head: "No."

Wei Qing hummed and said, "Compared with His Majesty, how much better do you think you are than him?"

Wei Ning said honestly: "I am not as good as him, far inferior."

Wei Qing said: "That's right. You can see that this is unusual, but can't he?"

Wei Ning said angrily: "He is just jealous of you! Only when he finds an opportunity will he drive you out of the palace!"

Wei Qing smiled slightly. The little guy really thought about himself. How could he, an uncle, be unhappy?
Is it possible that he is doing it for your own good?

There are many things you still don’t understand, and that’s normal.

Wei Qing concluded that nothing would or could happen to him.

He knew better than anyone what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to do.

The entire empire's ministers combined were not enough for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to scheme against!

"Nothing will happen to me."

"Don't resent His Majesty. You will understand his painstaking efforts in the future."

Work hard!

"what?"

Wei Ning looked at Wei Qing suspiciously.

Wei Qing shook his head and said, "It's nothing."

"Don't get involved in this matter yet, go back first."

Wei Ning said: "If I don't do anything, you will be exiled!"

Wei Qing smiled and said: "Thunder and rain are a sign of your kindness."

"Just be exiled, it's okay."

Is this all right?

Until now, you can still act like nothing is wrong?
"It's obvious that you were plotted!" Wei Ning said while suppressing his anger, "If you don't tell me, how can I find out who it is?"

Wei Qing said: "I know. But there are some things I can't tell you."

"The calculation is good, I can only say that the other party's calculation is excellent."

It's not like Wei Qing has never thought about who is plotting against him. Someone who can tell what happened 14 years ago can use this to plot against him.

Either His Majesty himself, or someone else knows Wei Ning's identity and wants to take away Wei Ning's wings.

Only Liu Huan can profit.

This is actually not difficult to guess. Wei Qing knows very well who is most likely to plot against him.

But he couldn't say it, and he couldn't tell Weining the cause and effect.

"Let's go back first. It's getting cooler today, so wear more clothes."
