Ninety-eight: Words of Punishment (yayaxhhy, the lord of the alliance, and the jade of the clan.
The prisoner was escorted back to Beijing, and normally he was sent to Dali Temple for trial. The emperor ordered the people to review. Before the prisoner came, the two people he had already selected were Lord Yao, the minister of Dali Temple, who was appointed as the chief trial; the other was Han Zhu, the respected censor in the court, who served as the deputy judge. These two court officials naturally had no objection. However, it is strange that in the past, the practice of one chief trial was one deputy judge, but this time, why was there only one deputy judge?
The prisoner entered Dali Temple. Everyone also hoped that the matter would be settled before the New Year and the case would be settled earlier. So they hoped that the trial would be started earlier and that the trial would be settled before the New Year.
Lord Mi Xiang, who was in the prime minister, must have asked the emperor when he would be judged. But the emperor gave him a message that was even more explosive than his own interrogation.
Lord Mi Xiang was knowledgeable, but he was still frightened by the emperor's imperial edict that Wen Wan was the deputy judge: "Emperor, Your Majesty..." Back then, when he was the Minister of Personnel, he had seen Princess Wen Wan attending the politics. In terms of qualifications and abilities, even the deputy judges can be done. The problem is that Princess Wen Wan is a woman. She wants to say something that doesn't fit, but she swallowed it back when she says it. The emperor must have the intention of the emperor. Mi Xiang was also surprised in his heart, why did the princess not participate in politics before, and this time he intervened well, what was the intention behind the scenes?
Mi Xiang was the first to know the news, and Wen Wan was the second to know the news. When Wen Wan knew that the emperor really appointed her as the deputy judge, she was really amused: "The emperor's uncle is not afraid of being impeached by the censor." The emperor did not communicate with Wen Wan in advance, but Wen Wan probably guessed that another deputy judge was her, otherwise why would the emperor not decide.
The emperor did not say that, on the one hand, he was afraid that she would give up the charge, and on the other hand, he was worried about the attack from the court officials.
Xia Ying didn't raise her eyelids: "Zu Xun only said that women in the harem were not allowed to interfere in politics, but did not say that women were not allowed to interfere in politics. Zu Xun was just worried that the harem would disrupt the court's principles and the imperial power would fall into the hands of the foreign relatives. The princess was the princess of Xingguo personally granted by the emperor, so who dared to object?" Xia Ying's last sentence was on the point. The emperor originally granted Wen Wan the title of Princess of Xingguo, in order to block the court officials' mouths for Wen Wan to participate in politics. Unfortunately, Wen Wan didn't know at that time.
Wen Wan chuckled: "I tell you. There are so many objections. Look, the impeachment memorial must have flew into the imperial case all over the sky. The emperor's uncle is not afraid of trouble, I am afraid of trouble. Hmm, I can't refuse this matter, and I can't hide the matter about the Huwei Army." The emperor asked her to serve as deputy judge, so he must give an explanation to the court officials. Otherwise, how could she be the deputy? It's very confusing!
Xia Yao glanced at Wen Wan and said contemptuously: "The emperor has a word, no one dares to refute it. The princess himself retreats, don't blame the emperor for his mistakes. Moreover, the princess cannot refuse. This is an imperial edict." If the imperial edict is defied, the whole family will be executed.
Wen Wan curled her lips: "In a word, I will never go to court to try the case. Then you will go to listen on my behalf and bring me the reviewed case file." Wen Wan meant. She just named her and would never attend.
The emperor had actually guessed that Wen Wan would do this long ago. Otherwise, it would not be a deputy trial, but a chief trial.
Xia Yao had already expected it. It would be fine if Wen Wan didn't go to the trial. The case trial was mainly the chief judge, and the deputy trial was actually mainly the supervisory role: "Sheng."
Wen Wan then said, "You can take Mingrui to listen with you."
Xia Yao was stunned for a while and asked in confusion: "Why did you take Mingrui there?" It is logical that Ling Ling should go and see more. Why did the six-year-old Mingrui catch up?
Wen Wan smiled: "It's not appropriate for Ling Ling to go. Everyone outside speculated that I was going to hand over the business to Ling Ling. Isn't it a contradictory thing to let Ling Ling listen now? Ming Rui comes back and tells Ling Ling the same. Besides, Ming Rui will join the army in the future. No matter what it is, it will be beneficial for him to let his knowledge and experience." As he has broadened his knowledge, his horizons will be opened.
Wen Wan can be sure of one thing in the past few years. Mingrui wants to be a general, but she must have never been exposed to this aspect before. Otherwise, she would not have acted so awkward. Since she has never been exposed to it, she will create opportunities for Mingrui.
The emperor did not explain as Xia Yao expected. The court officials were also furious inside and outside by another news released by the emperor.
The supreme commander of the Huwei Army was Princess Wenwan. Let alone the court officials, everyone who heard this was messy in the wind.
The prince was a little stunned at the moment. Did the father feel too relieved about Wen Wan? It didn't count if she had given her a large sum of money, but she also let Wen Wan control the military power. How much does the father trust Wen Wan?
The third prince just smiled bitterly after hearing this. They didn't know how much Wen Wan had.
The fifth prince said a very classic saying: "If Wenwan's two sons had surnames Yan, it would probably be fine for the prince. We had nothing to do."
Yan Qixuan said this, which scared the staff around him to death. This is not a casual matter! This sentence is too heartbreaking.
Prince Hao was stunned for a long time after receiving the news. Then he laughed: "I just said that this girl is not an eagle that doesn't speak out when she sees a rabbit. I thought she was just looking for someone who is easy to control. I didn't expect that she would directly control the power in her hands. This girl is really unexpected! This girl is really hidden! "Prince Hao didn't believe Wen Wan didn't know that Wen's family had been fighting the Tiger Wei army. Although the Tiger Wei army had only 5,000 people, it was the main force in the coastal area. Although there were few people, it was very rich in fighting Japanese pirates and other things! There were also the filial piety of the sea merchants in Haikou, and the money was very generous.
The aides around Prince Hao were also shocked: "Your Majesty, the emperor is too fond of the princess. This is military power. Although the number of Huwei Army is not large, the emperor is too relieved about the princess." Princess Wenwan has collected huge capital and controlled the economic lifeline of the Daqi (mainly referring to banks). She still controls military power now.
Prince Hao smiled and said, "I'm worried about anything. Wen Wan is not familiar with this. Even the Supreme Commander is just a name. Wen Wan wants Haikou under her control, not really want military power. This girl thinks more deeply than me!" Establishing an island in Haikou, that is, building her own forces, can avoid the emperor's suspicion, and secondly, using Haikou as the last way to retreat. If it is really true, she will be entrenched on the sea in the future. The court can't do anything. No wonder he was surprised that Wen Wan was so confident before. It turned out that it was this girl who had already thought of a way out of retreat.
The others also had their own thoughts, and the most panicked one was the Wen family. The Wen family spent several years on this day and was about to win. But a bolt from the blue was all empty in an instant. And they also had to offend Princess Wen Wan.
Wen Yue regretted it at this time. If he had known that he would have to marry Princess Wenwan home when the emperor was interested. Instead of waiting for Bai Shinian to return to Beijing, Bai Shinian would take away the marriage.
It was hard to buy a fortune, but I thought that his career would stop moving forward after marrying Princess Wenwan. However, I didn’t expect that marrying Princess Wenwan could bring such great convenience. Look at Bai Shinian’s work in the border city marshal and the generals were also rehabilitating the army. These are all inseparable from Princess Wenwan. If he had succeeded at the beginning, these were all his. He now regretted that he wanted to hit the wall.
Wen Wan received the news and said with a smile: "The Wen family suffered heavy losses this time. Haha, the bamboo basket is useless." For the military power of the Huwei Army, the Wen family has spent a lot of effort in recent years. This time, the Wen family has lost a lot of money.
Xia Ying was a little confused about Wen Wan's words: "The princess wants to pull the Wen family down. Princess, although the Wen family is not as good as before, the lean camel is bigger than the horse. We are not afraid of the Wen family, but it is not cost-effective." If we want to pull the Wen family down, Wen Wan will definitely have to pay a price. If we can get a big profit, it would be fine, but it would be a pity that Wen Wan can't get any profit. It's too unprofitable. Xia Ying opposed it (those who are close to the red and those who are close to the black are black, and that's all of them. They all learned Wen Wan).
Wen Wan smiled softly: "The Wen family has no outstanding descendants except Wen Yue. However, Wen Yue is stubborn and his career is here. The Wen family will end if I don't need to do anything. Don't forget that everyone loves to add icing on the cake and is not interested in giving carbon in the snow. Well, I am very interested in putting in the underworld. Not to mention, the Wen family is still a piece of fat." No matter what, there are still many people in the Wen family in the military camp. At the same time, the Wen family also has many positive enemies.
Xia Yao held a different concept: "The Wen family is still there, but the Wen family cannot be defeated." The Wen family is still there, and the emperor has to give him three points of face.
Wen Wan smiled uncontrollably: "Xia Yao, you are so funny. You don't count how old Master Wen is this year? He has passed by ninety and is weak now. I heard that he is so sick that he is confused and ignorant. The imperial physician has been talking for at most two years. Master Wen is gone, and the building of the Wen family will collapse." There is another thing Wen Wan didn't say, that is, the emperor wants the Wen family to fall. Otherwise, why can the imperial concubine Qi give birth to a son and a daughter, but the imperial concubine Wen has nothing to do. Because Qi Quan made great military achievements to the court, and although the Qi family did not support the emperor at the beginning
, but he did not support King Zhao, and took the middle route. However, the Wen family was different. The Wen family had a close relationship with King Zhao, but they did not have it on the surface, but secretly gave the emperor a few secret losses. With the emperor's vengeful nature, he could tolerate so many years because of the fact that the Taishi Wen was a veteran of the four dynasties. The emperor had a bad reputation before and did not want to move Wen Taishi was a nameless and was not loyal to him, so he was unable to resist. The Wen family was not a fool, but wanted the military power of Haikou and left a way out for the Wen family. Unfortunately, he was not as quick as her.
Xia Yao rolled her eyes: "Ten years ago, the imperial physician said that Master Wen had only been in the past two years, and now he is still doing well! So, slowly." Maybe that old man could survive a hundred years, who can say that right!
Wen Wan didn't say much: "We just listened to this case. I just need to understand what happened before and after, make sure they were not framed, and it was just a trick. There was no need to worry too much about other things. However, Haikou's government affairs require us to worry about it."
Xia Ying knew that this was her mission.
