Furthermore... This is still a case of doing a good job. If it is not done well, the official hat will not guarantee that the head will fall!

How could the emperor not know what the people in the hall were thinking, so he calmed down his will: "In Beijing, all civil servants and military generals, regardless of their official rank, will draft a detailed proposal on the relief, pension and resettlement within two days, and the best one will be selected."

It was night, the emperor first went to the Fengxian Hall to offer incense to the ancestors, and then returned to the sleeping hall to look through the dossiers of flood relief over the years that had been submitted by the Ministry of Industry and Households, and the exquisite cakes for the evening were also withdrawn , Only willing to close your eyes to rest when the jitters sound.

The next day, he woke up groggy, went to the court, and issued an imperial edict to punish himself.

After lunch, he had to rest for a while. Zhang Baoli, who had become obedient after being scolded yesterday, immediately went into the hall and bowed his waist and said: "Long live Lord, please see me with the signboard of Yushi Ding Maoshi."

The emperor rubbed his swollen eyebrows and waved his hand to invite people in.

Ding Maoshi is very old and his beard and hair are white. He first submitted the paperwork, then knelt tremblingly on the ground, and sternly reprimanded: "The prince of the Eastern Palace, the heir of the country, but his words and deeds are improper, he indulges in pleasures, he is addicted and does not know how to be vigilant, etc. The tribute rice is delicious and the fish and shrimps feed it. Do you know that millions of people thousands of miles away are in dire straits?!"

It turned out that Ding Maoshi was worried about the disaster and walked around the East Palace when he was in court today. From a distance, he saw a group of maidservants running in a hurry, or bent over the rockery and grass, or stepped on the wooden ladder to lift tiles, or imitated the sound I searched for it everywhere, such a big battle was just to find a Cuzhi that was accidentally lost! After repeated inquiries, I learned that this Cuzhi is an unusual thing. It does not eat fish and shrimp except for tribute rice, and it does not live in non-official kilns. If you don't fight with soft voices to comfort you, you have to be named "General Shenwu" by the Prince of the Eastern Palace.

After reading the memorial, the emperor was so angry that he beat the case: "Let him come! Let him bring his 'Shenwu Great General' with him!"

Zhang Bao didn't dare to delay after hearing this, so he hurriedly went to the East Palace to invite someone. The East Palace is not far from the Hall of Martial Arts, but just in this short interval, people kept handing signs to see him. The emperor was upset and didn't see him. They are all references to the impeachment of Donggong.

Standing aside, Ding Maoshi had no intention of party disputes at all. Seeing that the timely memorial almost drowned out the imperial case, he suddenly realized that he had become an excuse for King Lu to criticize the Eastern Palace. The two sons who are suitable to inherit the orthodoxy are not benevolent monarchs who love the country and the people! Thinking of this, he couldn't help trembling with anger, his whole body was cold, and when he felt hurt and anxious, he almost opened his mouth to persuade the emperor to choose a concubine Afterwards, the descendants of Lianlian followed the righteous path of the emperor, and saw that the emperor's face was not looking very good, so he reluctantly held back.

Not long after, the prince knelt down in front of the emperor with a clay pot in his hand and lowered his eyebrows.

Under the two phases, the truth is no different from Ding Maoshi's endowment.

The emperor slapped the desk hard and scolded: "Tang Yingke! I order you to smash this jar!"

The prince was slightly stunned, knowing that the emperor was furious, he didn't dare to say any more, and dropped the clay pot to the ground lightly with a look of unbearable expression.

This can't bear it for just a moment, and the difference between falling and smashing is only a word, but how much repentance and determination to correct mistakes are missing, and how many indecisive women's benevolence is added, which makes the emperor's eagerness to teach his son feel like He was splashed with several pots of winter ice.

The emperor collapsed down the high steps in a few steps, trampled to death the bewildered Zhu Zhi who was on the ground trying to escape, and then knocked the prince down a few steps away with one hand.Zhang Bao and other servants in the palace fell to their knees, cowardly begging the emperor to appease his anger.

At this time, the prince broke out in a cold sweat. Regardless of the pain on his body, he stood up and walked to the emperor, hugged the emperor's thigh tightly, and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "Father, I know my mistake, I know my mistake!"

Such a cowardly and cowardly appearance, full of tears, was clearly afraid of guilt, which made the emperor even more furious, raised his eyebrows, and shouted: "Bring the horsewhip!"

At that time, the front palace came to report: "Your Majesty, Princess Yiyang is asking to see you."

The emperor smiled instead of anger when he heard the words, and walked around several times: "Okay, it's very good! All of them are worthy of being my children!" The reason? How long did it take for the crown prince to be summoned, and Yiyang was able to rush from the princess mansion to the palace, and even his daughter dared to put people by his side?

"You are all clay sculptures and woodcarvings, can't you? Bring the horsewhip!" The emperor didn't dare to be perfunctory anymore. He immediately ordered someone to get the horsewhip, and he said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, princess..."

The emperor glanced at him coldly, and his voice was like winter snow in the twelfth lunar month: "No see! Tell her to go back!"

The sound of lashing the whip through the air was endless, and everyone in the hall trembled at the sound.

The prince knelt on the ground and sobbed softly, two or three bloodstains were clearly visible on his back, which was only wearing a snow-white jacket.

Ding Maoshi already felt that the emperor was punishing him too severely in his anger. If he broke the crown prince, he might not be worth the loss. He was about to speak out to persuade him, but he heard a noise outside the palace. Come into the hall.

The emperor was only focused on scolding the prince, turning a deaf ear to the movement around him, waving his wrist and whip, and suddenly saw a rose-red figure pretending to cover the prince.

Rao raised her wrist to stop the whip, it was too late, the whip bit hard on Yiyang's right shoulder, the pain made her tremble all over, she clenched her teeth tightly so as not to cry out in pain.

The emperor flicked his long whip a few times in the air, whistling so loudly that everyone was frightened. He pointed at the whip again and raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "Who allowed you to come in? You want to be beaten too?!"

Chapter 35

Yiyang shook his head vigorously when he heard the words, looked at the prince and then at the emperor, and muttered in a low voice: "I heard that there was a flood in some places, and the disaster is not small. I guess the father must have been worrying about it all night long." Sleepy. I was worried that my father was ill due to illness. After the early hours of the court, I finally waited until noon to rest before thinking of visiting the palace. Unexpectedly, my father refused to summon my son, and my son thought it was because my father was really unwell. In order to avoid my son's worries, I deliberately concealed it, and rushed into the palace when I lost my mind."

The emperor remained unmoved, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is that true?"

"Could it be that the father doesn't want to trust my son now?" Yiyang's eyes were red with grievance, and his voice was choked up, "That's right, my son will marry someone else when he reaches his age at the end of the year. As the saying goes, a married daughter The water that was thrown out has not yet been married, and the emperor even called for the whip."

The emperor was both amused and angry, pointing at Li Shunde who failed to stop Yiyang from entering the palace with his whip, and feigned anger to Yiyang: "Hu Bai! Ask Li Shunde, how many years has he served here? , who dares to mess around like you? Besides, how did I hit you with that whip on purpose, and I clearly fought to get beaten by myself!"

After all, he pretended to throw the whip at Yiyang again.

There was no trace of timidity in Yiyang's tear-filled eyes, he sniffed, wiped away his tears pitifully, and then looked at the shivering prince beside him, who was still in shock: "My son just heard the sound of the whip from afar, wait to go Taking a closer look, although I don't know what mistake the prince's elder brother made that angered his father, but his brother is connected with his heart, seeing that the prince's elder brother was about to be beaten to death, he didn't dare to take the father's whip in a hurry, so he had to be brave Come in and get beaten."

"According to what you said, your brother Youti is filial to your father, so I should give you a reward?" Although the words were a question, the corner of the emperor's mouth was already slightly smiling, and the fearful people in the hall were also secretly relieved. in one breath.

Yiyang knelt a few steps closer to the emperor, tugged at the hem of his clothes, raised his head and stared innocently at the emperor with wet eyes: "Then father, how about rewarding the minister with a decree? In half a month, mother will be here." The concubine's birthday is coming up, and the Ci'en Temple will open the dojo for a few days as usual. At that time, the elder brother and sister-in-law will take Lin'an to burn some incense sticks for the concubine mother, and ask the Buddha to send a few messages." She lowered her eyelids, looking a little lonely Lonely, raised his head again and his voice softened a bit, "Even if my brother has committed a huge mistake, let's forgive him this time and let him be safe and secure for the mother and concubine to see in the sky?"

Hearing this, the crown prince's whole anxious heart was finally stuffed back into its original place intact.

Li Shunde and Zhang Baoshi stood by and exchanged glances: The emperor's weakness, His Highness Yiyang is right.
