When King Xuanning comes to Beijing, this matter will become a big deal.
When the old man announced that King Qin came to Beijing, he almost took away all the titles.
Li Jinglong thought about it for a while and already had an idea.
Who is happiest when something happens to Prince Ning, of course the emperor’s grandson!
Now, for Li Jinglong's fault, he must blame Prince Ning for everything.
For example, King Ning is powerful and arrogant, and his ministers are honorable relatives who dare not disobey, etc.!
"Then, what happens after you get the discount?" Li Jinglong continued to ask.
"Look at you, where has your usual cleverness gone?" Xie Jin laughed and said, "You took advantage of the book and expressed your feelings. How can His Highness not protect you?"
"You, you, Lao Li, let me tell you what you are good at!" Xie Jin continued, "Huang Tiansun has a lot of trust in you. You did this in private, are you worthy of him?"
"We, the ministers of the East Palace, have one master above us, the emperor's grandson. No matter what kind of prince you are, the honor and disgrace of your wealth are not a matter of a word from His Highness?"
"What you are afraid of now is that the Emperor is angry, isn't it? But no matter how angry the Emperor is, don't you still have to consult His Highness in the end?" Remember the website address: m.wxsy.
What Li Jinglong wanted was this sentence.
In an instant, he almost burst into tears. His sins, whether serious or minor, were actually all in the monarch's thoughts. They all depended on whether anyone really spoke for him.
"Your Highness still cares about me after all!" Li Jinglong said in his heart, "You still want to protect me!"
Thinking of this, I felt even more regretful.
"If I had known this, why would I have thought about Mingzhe's bastard thing! Now it's better. I have offended the emperor and angered His Highness, and I ended up like this!"
"That's you!" Xie Jin continued, "If it were anyone else, His Highness wouldn't even ask!"
"God's grace is so great that Li felt guilty and ashamed!" Li Jinglong held his hands in the direction of the imperial city.
"As long as you know it in your heart!" Xie Jin rolled his eyes at him, "You deserve this! You are a good duke and a close minister of His Highness. If you have to mix with the people of the vassal, it is still such a private matter.
That's the truth. If I were you, I would have caught those people on the spot and sent them directly to His Highness!"
"Otherwise, just say they are cheating and beat them to death!"
Li Jinglong felt bitter in his heart and cupped his hands and said, "Xiaojie, I have thanked Li for this matter!"
At this time, he also understood. Xie Jin said that it was not the emperor's grandson who asked him to come see him, but that was actually the case.
"Don't thank me. If you want to thank me, thank your wife!"
Suddenly, Li Jinglong's face became distorted, "She came to you in private?"
"What are you thinking?" Xie Jin said angrily, "She went to the emperor's grandson to cry and beg! Understand! His Highness didn't want to see her at first, but she said she would kneel and die outside the palace gate. When she met His Highness, she kept asking
Saying hello made His Highness soften your heart! Otherwise, do you think you can be so comfortable now?"
Li Jinglong immediately let go of his heart and sighed, "I have a good wife at home!"
As he said that, he remembered something and said quickly, "The ninth day of this month will be His Highness's birthday soon. This year's Emperor's birthday is not allowed to be organized by decree. But on His Highness's big day, I, as a minister, must do my best!"
"Excuse me, please tell my family. Let's search the warehouse and find something suitable to send to His Highness. If the things at home are not good, let my wife go to my father-in-law's house!"
"Everyone in the capital knows that your father-in-law, Duke Cao, is a master at raiding his father-in-law's family!" Jie Jin joked, "Okay, that's it, it's time for me to leave! Think about how to write the book!"
"No, Xiaojie, you are a great talent, give me some advice!"
"What's the point of this? Just remember these four words!" Xie Jin lowered his voice, "Add fuel to the fire!"
~~
I went to explain that Xie Jin left the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and got straight into the green baize carriage at the door.
"Are you anxious for the wait?" Xie Jin said with a smile as he sat in the carriage.
In the carriage, Tie Hyun sat upright and looked out the window thoughtfully.
"What are you looking at?" Xie Jin also followed his gaze and found nothing strange, so he asked again, "What are you thinking about?"
There was no expression on Tie Xuan Gu Jing Bu Bo's face, "There is something wrong with this matter!"
"You mean?" Xie Jin asked pointedly as the carriage drove slowly.
"I read the confessions of several Shanxi businessmen at His Highness's office this morning. From Jiaodong to Daning, there were quite a few officials who were used by them to win over, bribe, and intimidate them in the name of Prince Ning. If it had been in the past, with His Majesty's temper,
The Jin Yiwei must have arrested people on a large scale. But this time, there was no movement at all, don’t you think it’s strange?”
"What's so strange about this!" Xie Jin said with a smile, "Is it my son? The emperor loves face the most, so this kind of family disgrace"
"This is not a family scandal. Without an imperial edict, Daning secretly traded with barbarians on the grassland. This is one of them!" Tie Xuan said seriously, "Moreover, the lord of the vassal has secretly befriended local officials and used them for their own purposes. Do you think this is the case?
Is it a family scandal?"
As he said this, he suddenly had a sneer on his face, "Prince Ning must not be the only one to do such things!"
Xie Jin thought about it, "Whatever happens in the end, we have to wait until Prince Ning comes to the capital!" As he said that, he also sighed, "The vassal king is not a blessing to the country. How to deal with it is not up to me and other ministers to decide!"
"Do you think His Highness will take the lead in punishing Prince Ning, or protect him?" Tie Xuan asked again.
"I guess it's better to keep it!" Xie Jin said, "Let Prince Ning owe him a big favor!" He said with a smile, "But, if Prince Ning comes to the capital, he will be stripped of his skin even if he doesn't die!"
Suddenly, Tie Xuan sighed, "His Highness told me today that I am going to be released!"
"Where are you going again?" Xie Jin asked in shock, "We have only been in Beijing for a few days!"
"Xi'an!" Tie Xuan said, "Shaanxi Chief Secretary, left to participate in politics!"
"Hey, you are a third-rank local official!" Xie Jin teased, "When I see you in the future, I will call you "sir." Hey, even though I am a Jinshi and have a noble official position, I can only stay in the capital.
Be a good poet. Lao Tie, speaking of which, I actually envy you!"
Tie Xuan did not answer, but said something irrelevant, "I also heard from His Highness! After the Chinese New Year, he asked King Shen to become a vassal and enfeoff the land in Pyongyang. After he got the vassal, he changed the vassal state to King Han!"
"From the capital of Liaodong, allocate troops and horses to the King of Han as a guard and station them in the three Korean lands!"
"At the same time, the emperor's fifteenth son, the King of Liao, was ordered to expand military towns and build more military forts along the way to Liaodong, which will no longer be controlled by the King of Yan. The required troops, horses, and population will also be allocated from the Liaodong Capital Division!"
Xie Jin thought about it and said seriously, "Your Highness, do you want to demolish the Liaodong capital?"
The capital of Liaodong, with an army of more than 100,000, was nominally under the command of King Zhu Di of Yan.
"As well as the Chief Secretary of Peking and the Commander of the Guard Station, His Highness means to replace them all!" Tie Xuan continued.
"Hiss!" Xie Jin took a breath of air, "This will make King Yan go crazy!" As he spoke, he lowered his voice and asked, "Is His Highness going to attack the vassal kings? Can't wait any longer? But?
Now, with the Emperor still here, it’s not a good time!”
"So, Your Highness needs an excuse! And Prince Ning's visit to Beijing is just an excuse!"
"Explain more clearly?"
Tie Xuan suddenly gave a rare smile, "Your Highness can let Li Jinglong add fuel to the fire and say that King Ning is illegal. You can also let King Ning add fuel to the fire and accuse other vassal kings of being illegal!"
"In this way, the court's punishment of the vassal king, the transfer of subordinate officials, or the reduction of the guard army are all justified and irrefutable!"
Xie Jin thought for a moment and then laughed dumbly, "People say that I, Xie, am a very smart person. Compared with you, I am only a little clever!"
"Listen to me!" Tie Xuan said solemnly with a straight face, "I know that you are a bit free and easy-going, informal and love to make friends. But in the past two years, you don't have to do anything. You are close to the emperor's grandson.
Once you are involved in a local area, many people will try to find a way to get through you!"
"You must not reach out randomly and collect things you shouldn't, let alone speak for anyone. Otherwise, no one can protect you!"
Xie Jin sighed, "If this happens, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos again!"
Tie Xuan looked out the window, "If it doesn't break, it won't stand!"
