234 He Xuan was punished

The emperor watched Qiu Shi's body leave the hall with a complicated mood. He ordered the imperial doctors to find out the cause of death. Be clear and accurate. No one except the imperial doctor shall come into contact with the body before the cause of death is known.

Lord Ji came forward and continued to make trouble to the emperor about He Xuan. The emperor couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Since he had said that he was going to play, he could no longer speak for He Xuan, not only himself, but also Zuo's father and son. But besides these people, who else can help He Xuan speak? At this time, isn't helping her just making trouble for yourself?

The emperor asked, "What Lord Ji said is not unreasonable. According to what you can see, how should be punished?"

"Your Majesty, according to Weichen's humble opinion, He Xuan should be detained and then handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for strict interrogation. Because He Xuan and Qiu Shi have a deep friendship, even if He Xuan is not the one who instructed Qiu Shi, she must know about his behavior... When the emperor goes out, He Xuan knows that there may be dangers in what the emperor has done, but she does not make any stop. This crime is equivalent to..."

"I don't think so."

Just when the emperor felt that he should help He Xuan speak, a voice suddenly saved the emperor. However, just after a moment, the emperor felt that this man's help might make He Xuan more dangerous.

Because it was Yunzhen who spoke.

"Oh? What is Prince Xian's opinion?

Yunzhen left the class and replied, "According to Xiao Wang, He Xuan is a loyal and patriotic man. Although she is in the same hometown as Qiu Shi, she must be an accomplice if she has not seen her fellow villagers."

"Is He Xuan not responsible for what Prince Yixian saw?"

"He Xuan is responsible or not. Whether it is Lord Ji or Xiao Wang, it is unknown now. I'm just talking about another possibility. What's more, when the emperor was in danger, Lord He stood up to save him to keep the emperor safe.

"There is some reason for what the two Aiqing said, so..."

"Your Majesty," Yunzhen said, "Since Lord Ji wants to investigate Lord He, this is naturally good. Real gold is not afraid of fire. Since he is innocent, he is naturally not afraid of investigation. But the detention is a little too much. If this example is opened, who else dares to escort the emperor next time when he is killed?

The emperor nodded and said, "What about the opinion of King Yixian?"

"If the emperor is relieved, he can hand over the investigation to Xiao Wang. He Xuan only needs to be banned from her residence. Xiao Wang will naturally send someone to take good care of it.

Don't worry? How can I rest assured that you circle her up! The emperor thought so, but there is really no other good way now.

"Even so, He Xuan should be punished. After all, it was because of her unfavorable defense that shocked the emperor." Lord Ji said.

The emperor still wanted to speak, but Hearing He Xuan, who had not said a word, suddenly said, "He Xuan, the guilty minister, is willing to receive punishment."

The emperor clenched his fist tightly, and then transferred General Yu Linwei and asked, "What kind of punishment should I be punished for the position of being frightened by the relaxed guard?"

The general replied, "The person in charge is 20, and the person in charge is 30. Penalty for half a year, demoted to the first class.

"Okay. Then do it." The emperor waved his hand helplessly, but he thought in his heart: Fifty! He Xuan's injury is just better. Didn't she survive these 30 fights?

"Your Majesty, Xiao Wang has something else to say."

"Oh? What else does the virtuous prince have to say?

"It is often said that in his position, he plans to do things. Emperor Shengming, He Xuan was originally a civil servant, not a military general. Although it was bound to protect the emperor, He Xuan was not Yu Linwei after all. For a literary minister, Xiao Wang felt that such punishment was too heavy. Moreover, Xiao Wang heard that He Xuan had been injured when she rescued the driver. If she was punished, he was afraid that it would hurt her life. Why don't you... halve a small punishment?"

In the end, He Xuan's punishment was set on the 15th board.

The emperor ordered Fuhai to take charge of the execution in person. He Xuan was set up by two little eunuchs in the porch outside the door. The eunuch in charge of the execution held a board that could be half a foot wide and an inch thick board outside the door and was no longer pushed by others. He Xuan herself lay on the wooden stool that had been climbed by countless people.

Fuhai winched at the eunuch, and the two nodded knowingly.

There are also several different rules for beating people. First-class, the skin is open and fleshy, looking at the blood dripping, but only hurts the skin and flesh; second-class, it will damage people's under the skin, but the muscles will not move the bones, remove the blood stasis, and it is still okay to rest for some time; third-class, only need three or five plates to go down, and the bones are already broken. Even if it is raised in the future, it will be a useless person. What's more, if this third-class person is used, I'm afraid that there will be no need to live, let alone anyone treat him, so he will slowly die in extreme pain.

What He Xuan enjoys today is the first-class treatment.

If the ministers had not tried their best to say that they would follow He Xuan as an example and give Yu Linwei a warning, this punishment would not have been used here. If they had found a secluded courtyard or something, they would have only been three or five times that the fifteen boards could fall on He Xuan. But now, one has to fight one and two.

Fuhai was afraid of He Xuan's pain, bit his tongue, handed a clean handkerchief for He Xuan to bite. He Xuan smiled faintly and shook her head gently at Fu Hai. Fu Hai turned his head aside and said coldly, "Beat!"

Listening to the sound of the board knocking on He Xuan's body, Fu Hai secretly scolded in his heart: What's the matter? Those who saved the driver still have to be beaten. Thinking that the following offenders are still filled with good people in the hall... Poor this child, the old injury has not yet healed, and new injuries have been added. Moreover, next, he will be imprisoned by the smiling tiger prince. How can this injury be treated?

"It's all right to go back to your father-in-law."

Fifteen times, it was soon over. Looking at He Xuan's waist and below, she had been stained red by blood. Fu Hai didn't even give himself a heartache. He just said, "Get up!"

Because Fuhai also understands that only by being more cruel to He Xuan now can the child live a better life in the future.

He Xuan was almost thrown back to the ground. Even if she had been beaten like this, He Xuan would still kowtow to Xie En. After kowtowing, the emperor said lightly to He Xuan, "I thought about Lord Ji's words just now, and it really made people feel the same way. For you, I have been merciful, and it is also because of my kindness to you that you will make you a little complacent. In this case, you should start with a seventh grade like your classmates on the same list. He Xuan listened to the order, and from now on, He Xuan's official position will be relegated from the third grade to the seventh grade. After confirming that it has nothing to do with this assassination, she will be dismissed.

"Thank you, Lord Long." He Xuan kowtowed up again.

"I'm tired, scattered."

With that, the emperor stood up and walked to the apse.

After the sound of Fuhai's "dispersing dynasty", the ministers left the hall in twos and threes.

When Zuo's father and son passed by He Xuan, they did not dare to stay on her for long. Now that they had started, if they gave up at this time, the crimes He Xuan had just suffered would be in vain. The hearts of the father and son seemed to be bitten by thousands of bees, which was painful...

"Father..."

"You are a martial arts person. What if you get more than a dozen boards?" Zuo Junzhong asked Zuo Liang in a low voice.

"The son only glanced at it and thought it didn't matter. It was just a trauma."

"Then don't talk too much."

With that, Zuo Junzhong left the palace with Zuo Liang indifferently.

Because this approach is the most appropriate attitude towards a person who has been abandoned by the emperor.

Finally, there were only He Xuan and Yunzhen left in the whole hall.

"Can you go?" Yunzhen asked.

He Xuan sneered: "The prince entered the role so soon?"

"Don't know how good or not. If you change someone else, how can I torture you!" Yunzhen said with a smile.

He Xuan raised her head and reluctantly stood up. Although it was only a skin injury, it was also very painful to take action. Not to mention leaving, even standing up had made He Xuan sweaty.

"Don't hold on," Yunzhen sighed, "come on, take the spring stool and carry Lord He to my carriage."

The little eunuch outside answered and hurried to find someone to get the spring stool. When the spring stool was put away, He Xuan just wanted to lie on her, but heard Yunzhen scold: "It's a confused thing. It's so hard. How can people use it? Bring a thick mattress."

"Yes..."

The little eunuch answered and rushed out again. He Xuan couldn't hold it. She put her hand on the spring stool and sweat fell on it. Yunzhen looked at her hard work, walked to her side and picked her up directly.

"What are you doing?" He Xuan was scared to death by Yunzhen's sudden attack. "Let me down quickly."

"I'm not afraid. What are you afraid of?" Yunzhen looked at He Xuan and said, "If you have a wound on your body, don't move."

With that, Yunzhen took He Xuan out of the hall, and the little eunuch behind him carried the spring stool and followed her down the steps. The man who took the mattress also came back. Yunzhen saw it and ordered them to lay the things, and then gently put He Xuan down.

Several eunuchs have been sending He Xuan to Yunzhen's carriage, and Yunzhen asked people to bring He Xuan's horse over before walking towards the small yard where He Xuan lived.

Looking at Yunzhen's carriage, several little eunuchs whispered.

"Didn't you say that you were punished just now?"

"Yes. He also hit the board."

"Why is the prince still so kind to him?"

"No, I'm still holding him!"

"What kind of person is this Lord He? It's not a goblin, is it?"

"Have you ever seen a goblin coming out in broad daylight?"

"If it weren't for the goblin, how could the prince do such an outrageous thing?"

They were talking when they suddenly heard a cough. By the time they noticed, they were about to step on Fuhai's feet.

"Rich father-in-law..." Several little eunuchs were a little dumbfounded, but they still said hello.

Do you know what kind of person dies the fastest in the palace? It's the person who can't control his mouth.

Fuhai left such a cold sentence and walked away.
