Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 334 Forcing My Sister To Remarry (Part Three)

Two days later, a fast horse rushed into the city of Ye. In the former Grand General's Mansion, now in the Palace of King Yan, in a palace with the three characters "Privy Council" hanging on it, Li Ru held a memorial in his hand. After reading it carefully, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded, "Very good."

"Military division, is this news from Qingzhou?" Xu Shu asked beside him.

"Really, General Jiao has captured Linzi, and Qingzhou has been settled," Li Ru said.

"How about the loss?" Xu Shu asked with concern.

"Haha, Yuanzhi is at ease. This Sima Yi is indeed a talent. He has understood the meaning of the king very well. Except for the battle in the water army camp, all other places are forced to surrender by the general trend, fame and fortune. The loss of our army is very small." Li Ru appreciated.

"It's so good, I should tell the king immediately." Xu Shu said with satisfaction, if Qingzhou has no owner, it has to fight again and again and take it after serious losses, then it is too worthless.

"Don't worry, I'm waiting." Hearing this, Li Ruque suddenly shook his head and smiled.

"Why?" Xu Shu asked doubtfully.

"Yuan Zhi, sometimes you can't put all your thoughts on political affairs, and you need to understand other things," Li Ru said.

"Others?" Xu Shu was a little at a loss for what to say.

"I just got the news that Your Majesty was going to go to the court today, but just now the servants came over and said that we will go another day. His two younger sisters have returned. I heard that they are at the Empress Dowager's place. Both Your Majesty and Zipei have been called over." Li Ru low voice.

"What's going on?" Xu Shu asked curiously. In addition to the three sons, Yuan Shao actually had two young daughters, but they were both married and hadn't been back for a long time. Even many people in Yecheng didn't know that Yuan Shao had two daughters. Daughter, or not paying attention to daughter at all.

"A few days ago Zipei consulted Prime Minister Zuo and Governor Gao for their opinions. In the name of Shangshutai, he conducted an inspection of Hebei and the two prefectures, and replaced a large number of officials. Two of them are really the husbands of the king's sister. , due to serious corruption, nepotism, fish and meat people, Quilt Pei ordered to withdraw directly, so they went to the Queen Mother and cried, "Li Ru looked like he was watching the show.

Xu Shu frowned, "Your Majesty, I remember what the King said, those who commit serious corruption will either be cut in half or sent to prison."

"Yes, in fact Zipei has shown mercy, but who told them that they are the husbands of the future princess? What about the king's brother-in-law? To put it bluntly, it was the former king who indulged too much in these corruptions, which led to this situation. Their crimes are too numerous to write down. If it wasn't for this relationship, he would have been cut in half long ago." Li Ru shook his head and said.

"Since that's the case, we have to hurry up, maybe we can let the king and the monk avoid the adults," Xu Shu said curiously.

"You don't know, since the victory at Guandu, the overall situation is stable, and the king decided to cultivate and live, this guy Zipei actually wanted to cut [-]% of my military budget, and planned to use it to encourage business and develop the economy. If I hadn't gone to the king, The following generals can upset my Privy Council," Li Ru said very dissatisfied.

Xu Shu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly and shook his head, saying, "Then go tomorrow."

"That's not necessary, just let Zipei suffer a little bit, and you'll be there in half an hour," Li Ru said with a grin.

"promise!"

. . . . . .

On the other side, in the harem, in the residence of the Queen Mother who has been renamed Changle Palace.

I saw Mrs. Liu sitting high on the main seat, wearing a phoenix crown on her head, and wearing a Chinese dress, with a noble and graceful temperament, but she looked at Han Yan with her head bowed in front of her with a bit of dissatisfaction.

Below, Yuan Xi, who was dressed in royal clothes, looked even more majestic. Looking at the two good-looking women in palace attire, with a trace of anger in their expressions, she felt helpless. It turned out that she had two younger sisters!
After thinking for a while, Yuan Xi said solemnly: "It is impossible to return the official position to them. According to the law, beheading them is not too much."

Yuan Wan and Yuan Wen were shocked, but they did not dare to contradict Yuan Xi. They looked at Mrs. Liu with aggrieved eyes, and said in unison: "Mother's queen"

Mrs. Liu frowned, knowing that her son was more talented than his father, and she would never allow her relatives to take advantage of power to fill their own pockets. She comforted her two daughters a little, and said: "The Ai family also knows what they have committed. The crime is indeed not light, but after all, it is a relative of the royal family, the husband of the future princess, the prince should handle it according to the circumstances."

"Mother, my son just let them go for the sake of the two younger sisters, Zipei, tell me what happened to the other people," Yuan Xi ordered.

"No!" Han Yan replied after spending his whole life: "The Queen Mother, except for the husbands of the two princesses, a total of 24 officials were dealt with this time, six of them had their homes ransacked, eight were sentenced to 30 years in prison, and ten were sentenced to 15 years in prison. He was betrayed and imprisoned for [-] years. Everyone has conclusive evidence of his crimes. The people reviled him, and even some officials did things that are even more indignant.”

"The husbands of the two princesses, as the eunuchs of one place, actually embezzled all the food and grass for disaster relief for money, causing many people to starve to death. People, ignore the king's law"

After Han Yan said the rest, there was a hint of anger in his tone.

Liu Shi was surprised that it was so serious, and he hesitated in his heart. Although he loves his daughter, but he committed so many mistakes, if he doesn't punish him, what is the law of the country?

"Mother, husband, he knows he was wrong, and he promises that he will never do it again." Yuan Wan hurriedly pleaded again.

"Third sister, don't beg your mother's empress again." Upon hearing this, Yuan Xi stood up suddenly, clasped his fists and said, "Mother's empress, the country will be formally established soon, and the younger sisters will also be canonized as princesses. Please come and see. Those two bastards are not worthy of my sister at all, and I have lost face to my Yuan family. I think they are not qualified to be members of the royal family. The engagement should be terminated immediately. I will re-select husbands for the two sisters, and they will definitely be important officials of the court. One, stay in Yecheng in the future and accompany mother well."

"Ah!" Yuan Wan and Yuan Wen were startled, and their faces turned pale.

Mrs. Liu was also a little surprised, and said, "This is not very good!"

"The two younger sisters don't have any heirs yet, so what's wrong with them? It looks like this is what they did. I originally hoped that we would correct our mistakes, but I didn't expect that they would try to rely on the younger sister. They are making a storm. I guess they are singing and dancing now, waiting for the younger sister to return home." Go back, how can such a person be kept?" Yuan Xi said with murderous intent, he wanted to kill them from the beginning, but Tian Feng asked him to take care of his mother's feelings, it was just dismissal. It's courting death.

Liu's complexion froze, and his heart was a little moved. Those two committed such a mistake. Once it was spread, they really did not have the qualifications to be the husbands of the future princess.

"Wan'er, Wen'er, are you willing?" Although Liu could make a decision, she still asked.

"Mother, my husband is actually very good to me," Yuan Wan said anxiously.

"Yeah! Brother Wang, we are wrong this time. They have indeed made a big mistake and are not worthy of governing one side." Yuan Wen also became worried. Looking at Yuan Xi's face, she planned to deal with the two immediately after pulling them out. People, although they have no heirs, still have some feelings after all, so it is really unbearable to do so.

"No way..." Yuan Xi's expression became firm. He thought it over clearly. Once his sister was conferred the title of princess, those two guys would still be messing around even if they didn't have official positions. Huge problem, absolutely not allowed to stay.

"Zipei, pass on the order to behead the two men, and search their homes to set the record straight"

"No!" Han Yan replied excitedly.

"No, Brother Wang" Yuan Wan, Yuan Wen immediately knelt on the ground and begged.

"You don't have to be like this, my brother will definitely find you a good son-in-law in the future, those despicable people are not worthy to marry you at all," Yuan Xi said solemnly.

"But"

"Forget it, what you brother Wang said is quite right. How can such a lawless person have the right to marry the heirs of the Yuan family?" It's too far away, if it wasn't for Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang trying to win over nobles from all over the world, how could they have married them.

Yuan Wan, Yuan Wen lowered her head sadly when she heard this. From here, it completely showed the low status of women in ancient times. They can't make decisions about their wedding banquets at all, and they don't even know how to resist.
Just like Lu Lingqi, who was the queen of the general family, has a hot personality, but above marriage, she still obeyed Gao Shun and Zhang Liao's words and married Yuan Xi. This is an ancient system.

"Report to Your Majesty, Vice President Xu seeks an audience." At this moment, a servant came in to report.

After Yuan Xi was taken aback, a trace of excitement appeared on his face: "Let him in quickly."

"promise!"

When Xu Shu came in, he saluted immediately: "My lord, queen mother."

"Yuan Zhi, is there any news from Qingzhou?" Yuan Xi asked expectantly.

"Really, my lord, General Jiao has successfully captured Linzi, and it's only a matter of time before Qingzhou is completely pacified," Xu Shu said holding a memorial.

Yuan Xi quickly took it, and after a careful look, he immediately burst out laughing, looked at Liu Shi and said, "Mother, my son will immediately call the ministers to discuss the affairs of the counties in Qingzhou, and the younger sister's matter is decided like this."

"Wang'er, just go, Qingzhou is pacified, and your so-called big brother will never be able to make waves again." Liu was also very happy.

"Promise!" After Yuan Xi gave a salute, he looked at Yuan Wan and Yuan Wen who were kneeling on the ground with a sad expression, and his tone softened: "You two sisters, don't worry, as long as the second brother is here, I will protect your prosperity for the rest of your life. happy"

Yuan Wan and Yuan Wen were taken aback for a moment, and after looking at each other, they saluted with tears in their eyes: "Thank you, Brother Wang."

"Haha, good." Yuan Xi smiled, waved his hand and left with Han Yan and Xu Shu.
