Chapter 308 Princess
"I didn't expect that even Xia Jiajun couldn't help these water bandits. These water bandits are so arrogant that they must think that there is no one in the court. I think General Xia lacks training, and maybe it's time to rest for some time. A master said.
The old man in the royal robe looked at Wu Yintang and said, "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, how to deal with it."
"Deliction of duty, causing casualties. Affect the war situation and be executed according to the law!" Wu Yintang said without hesitation.
The old man's eyelids jumped slightly, and this old man really dared to tell the truth.
"Your Majesty, Xia Zhong has made a lot of contributions to guard the border for many years. You can't regard it as ordinary people, and the crime will not die."
Even if the Xia family does not come out to plead, the emperor will never behead him. Snobbish people can ignore the law. The so-called law is only used to restrain the poor people. No one in the court is old and refined. The minister who was attached to the Xia family came out and said a few good words for Xia Zhong.
"What do you think?" The old man in royal robe glanced at the road for a week.
"I can't help but be disappointed. I thought I would put aside my position and enter the prison for five years!" Wu Yintang said.
"Even if it is to be convicted, it is not the Dali Temple's turn. It should be handed over to the generals of the barracks for sentencing." The old man of the Xia family retorted. The basis of sentencing by civil officers is different. Most of the military officers are subordinates of the Xia family, and even if the sentence is imposed, it will not be too heavy. Of course, we should argue with reason.
โ...โ
"Lieutenant Xia is right, but in order to avoid suspicion, let's hand it over to Dali Temple and take back the military power for the time being," the emperor said in silence for a moment. You have no joke, even if you have complaints, you can only complain in your heart. It seems that the Xia family has fallen behind in this confrontation, and there is not even a strong person in the court. The situation can be imagined in the future. The officials who defected can't help but be proud to choose the right camp.
Wu Yintang always feels something wrong. Why is the other party not angry at all? At least we have to argue and bargain. Just hand Xia Zhong into your own hands like this?
"If you have something to do, you have nothing to do."
"Father, I have something to say." Prince Li Yan, who watched coldly, suddenly said.
"Oh? What's the matter?" The old man in the royal robe just asked casually, but he didn't expect that something really happened. Take back the steps taken.
"I have liked a woman for a long time and want to accept her as the crown princess! Father, please give me permission.
Princess? Why did you suddenly bring up this matter? Wu Yintang just remembered, no wonder they felt wrong. The prince who helped the Xia family did not make a sound during this period. He had vaguely guessed who the "she" in the prince's mouth was, and his face suddenly looked difficult.
Li Yan's eyes are quite high, and he has seen many beautiful women, but none of them care about her. Now everyone was shocked to take the initiative to make a crown princess.
"Hahaha, this is a happy event. Which lady moved the emperor and actually accepted him directly as the crown princess. The old man laughed. The crown princess is no better than the ordinary concubine. As long as Li Yan ascends the throne, she is the queen and the mother of the world. Few people can't envy it.
"Miss Xia's third, Xia Ruoyan!" Li Yan said word by word.
"Xia Ruoyan?" Everyone's expressions are different.
"Sure enough, it's her. Xia Shuangtian raised a good daughter and went to the big tree of the prince." Zheng Wu's family thought of it at the same time.
The old man in the royal robe paused and said, "I promise, Yaner, choose an auspicious day."
Li Yan was relieved and full of smiles. He said, "My minister has checked it. Seven days will be an auspicious day. I hope my father will give an edict to grant amnesty to the world."
"Amnesty to the world, so it is! This is the real purpose of the Xia family. At this moment, everyone figured it out. Unexpectedly, the other party left such a big killing move. No matter how many years Xia Luo was sentenced, the "amnesty to the world" seven days later could make him escape from death. Xia Ruoyan married the prince, and Xia Zhong had to call Li Yan's brother-in-law. It was unreasonable to put him in prison again, and the emperor would not slap himself. Generally speaking, there is a practice of "amnesty to the world" only when the emperor ascends the throne, appoints the crown prince, appoints the queen, and changes the year, but the establishment of the crown princess is not a trivial matter. If you have the right to ask the emperor to be gravitate.
Because of the court struggle, although Li Yan is named the prince, his relationship with the emperor may not be very good. But at this moment, from his father's point of view, he could feel the expectation in Li Yan's eyes and smiled and said, "I intend to inform the world that Prince Li Yan and Xia Ruoyan, the third lady of the Xia family, will get married seven days later. At that time, they will be pardoned and celebrate the whole country."
"Yan'er, how can you..." Xia Zhong didn't know about it at all. At this moment, my heart is mixed. I swore in my heart that I would not force her to do what I didn't want to do in my life and protect her. I didn't expect...
"Brother, it's not good. Something big has happened!" Xue Ling ran back to the inn in a sweat and held Zhang Hongbang in his hand.
Yang Fan knocked over with a burst of shudder: "It's early in the morning, and I won't let people sleep."
"Shh, keep your voice low, don't let the second brother hear it." Xue Ling covered his head and said. I used to use this trick to clean up my younger brothers, but I didn't expect that now it's my turn to pay back.
Yang Fan picked up the red list, yawned, and said carelessly, "It's okay. My second brother went out early in the morning to inquire about the news."
"It's all over, you can see for yourself. Now I can't hide it anymore." Xue Ling said with a bitter face. Yang Fan looked at the red list, pulled up Xue Ling and ran away: "He went to Zui Xianju. Hurry up and keep up."
"Today's business is particularly good. It took me a long time to find a seat. This is still the situation when the shopkeeper often comes here and looks familiar." The two looked around, and there was no shadow of Xiao Ran.
"It's a big deal to establish the crown princess. I didn't expect the Xia family to be next to the prince's big tree. There were rumors two days ago, and the news came out. I'm afraid the threshold of Xia Mansion has been broken.
"I heard that Xia Ruoyan is the second place on the Tianji list. I have seen it once at the Longteng event. It's a beauty. It's not too much to say that it's sinking fish and falling geese." A young man dressed as a chivalrous man.
"You can't envy them. Hahaha..."
"It's all Xiao Ran who doesn't know whether it's good or not, otherwise he will have a chance to kiss Fangze."
"Shh, you can't talk nonsense. Be careful that the government will take you to the board. The crown princess is not something you and I can talk about.
"Let's go back to the inn and let the second brother do anything stupid. This guy is stubborn and can't pull back ten cows." Not long after the two sat down, they hurried back.
"Two masters, you are back. This letter was forwarded by the guest officer who stayed with you. The shopkeeper called the two people to stop.
"What about others?"
"I checked out half an hour ago."
"Which direction are you going?"
"This is not clear, but he has inquired about the journey from here to Luoyang for a few days."
"Luoyang? Bad thing. This is four taels of silver to calculate the room money for staying in the store these days, so there is no need to look for the extra money. Third brother, pack your bags and go.
"It's not that you get married. What's the hurry? It's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, eunuch." The shopkeeper looked at the two people in a hurry and shook his head and muttered.
A hundred miles away, Xiao Ran rode a fast horse in the direction of Luoyang. While leaving a letter to the two sworn brothers, he had handed over a letter to the Seven Killing disciples to the Jiuyin Ghost Mother. In any case, he will go to Luoyang, even if he puts down everything in his hand. If you don't ask clearly in person, you really won't have a chance. He has always been cautious and think twice, but now he can't care so much.
People are always crazy about their loved ones all their lives, don't remember the loss, and don't care about the results, even if only one time is enough.
"The fish is hooked." An unknown island, in the dark room of the pagoda, a man said.
"There are such stupid people in the world who still believe in love." The Lord laughed. Lin Shiya's face was covered with a veil, and she actually admired this infatuated man. With his wisdom, it was impossible not to know that many enemies were waiting for him to fall into the trap in Luoyang City.
"Lord, the five sects, the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Yanluo Temple and the Miaojiang Five Poisons have all moved." A humane man in black.
"It seems that I still underestimated the attraction of the seven-star stone. Should I surprise them again? I don't believe that Xiao Ran can escape from death every time, and those who destroy my plan deserve to die.
"Lord, is the time a little short for the prince's wedding seven days later? In case..."
"In case, Xia Shuangtian will definitely take action. Even if he can stand it, he will have a backhand, and the good play is about to be staged. I've been waiting for this scene for a long time. I don't know what the old guy will look like, hahaha..."
