Four hundred and sixtieth chapters conspiracy in the car
"go home!"
Looking at Wang Junlin's back, Nie Xiaoyu seemed to be in a daze. It wasn't until Wang Junlin shouted again that he realized and chased after them. Not far away, Ye Ying was waiting for them in a carriage with nineteen guards.
When Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu got on the carriage and headed back, the civil and military officials who were going to court today walked out of the palace gate in twos and threes. They all had complicated expressions and different thoughts, and everyone was thinking about what they had just gone to court.
What happened in the hall, especially the result of His Majesty’s final punishment on Wang Junlin.
If we are being reasonable or fair, based on the behavior of the King of Han and Wang Junlin's outstanding military exploits for the court, Wang Junlin naturally should not be punished in any way. But obviously, in the supremacy of imperial power, the royal family is the most noble, followed by the aristocratic family.
, in the era of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system where people were as humble as dogs, there were privileges everywhere and there was no fairness in everything.
Therefore, in the eyes of the civil and military officials and nobles, given Wang Junlin's military exploits, status, and the fact that His Royal Highness was the Crown Prince, this punishment was just right. Although Wang Junlin's enemies, headed by Yang Su, were sorry, they also knew that
This result was mainly due to the fact that the emperor was extremely fond of the King of Han.
However, when the matter has developed to this point, it is no longer as simple as it was at the beginning. What the ministers are most concerned about here is what His Highness the Crown Prince's behavior of blatantly wooing the Marquis of Qin An means. And His Majesty's attitude towards this matter, and
It vaguely reflects some thoughts on the position of crown prince and what kind of hidden meaning it expresses.
In this matter, His Majesty undoubtedly conveyed a certain attitude of his in front of the officials. Some ministers and some aristocratic families will definitely be more cautious when choosing a camp next, and have already chosen a camp or are still wavering and waiting.
People may feel even more uneasy in their hearts.
…
…
In a secluded hall somewhere in the palace, King Han was lying on his back on the bed, his head covered with white gauze, his chest bandaged, and his eyes staring directly upward.
"You have let me down in this matter!" Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty stood in front of the bed, thinking about the words of the censor named Zhang Wen when he impeached the King of Han. His face was full of sullenness, and he looked at the King of Han and said:
"I heard that the woman was just a maid next to Wang Junlin. You actually did such a shameful thing in public for a humble maid. Do you know that I asked you to come to Beijing this time?
Why have you disappointed me?"
King Han's face was wrapped with a white cloth, and his expression could not be seen clearly. Only from his clenched fists and the thick hatred in his eyes could we tell that he must be in a terrible mood at the moment.
Naturally, he had already learned about what happened in the court today. It was naturally beyond his expectation and at the same time, it made him very disappointed.
He wished that Wang Junlin, who had been cut into pieces and whose blood and flesh he had eaten, was dismissed from office and fined three years' salary. Maybe in the eyes of others, this was already very serious, or the punishment was just right, but in his opinion
, this is simply a great shame and humiliation.
As a prince and His Majesty's most favored prince, he was beaten and seriously injured in front of everyone. Now he can only lie on the bed unable to move. However, the person who did it was not executed. How can he have the face to stand in front of the world in the future?
He hated Wang Junlin so much that he vowed to kill Wang Junlin, snatch the woman away, rape her, and when he got tired of playing with her, put her in a brothel and let countless men play with her... Maybe he wouldn't kill Wang Junlin first.
Letting Wang Junlin witness him raping and playing with her woman would further alleviate the hatred in his heart.
"You can recuperate here these days. After you recover, I will arrange an errand for you. You can't let me down again..."
Lying on the bed, King Han listened to his father's words, unclenched his clenched fists, and took a deep breath.
"Father, I know I was wrong, and I will never let you down again..." He gritted his teeth and squeezed out this sentence.
Emperor Sui's expression softened, he nodded, turned and left.
…
…
In the carriage, Nie Xiaoyu looked up at Wang Junlin and said, "Sir, it was me who beat up the King of Han this time, which caused you trouble and even threatened your life."
Wang Junlin fell silent, with a somewhat solemn look on his face, and said, "Xiao Yu, how much do you already know about the court, the people, the clan, and public security in this era?"
Nie Xiaoyu said: "I have reviewed this historical data in detail. Based on what I have seen, heard, and experienced these days, I have analyzed and summarized a result."
After a pause, she continued: "After Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty came to the throne, he abolished the official system established by the Six Officials in the Zhou Rites attached to the Northern Zhou Dynasty and replaced it with the system of three provinces and six ministries, and established the official positions of left and right guards, left and right military guards, etc.
The original intention was to strengthen the imperial power and restore the tradition of the Han dynasty official system. However, since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the nine-level Zhongzheng system has been deeply rooted in the minds of all aristocratic families and aristocratic families. The imperial power of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was stronger than that of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but the increase was also extremely strong.
Limited, more than 90% of the officials in the Sui Dynasty came from aristocratic families, and these officials were influenced by the family ideology. Whether they were serving as officials or doing things, they put their family first, and then the court and the emperor. Among them were the second generation of the Sui Dynasty.
One of the fundamental reasons for the demise of the world..."
"There is no need to go into details about these, let's talk about the key points, such as our safety factor, life rights index, etc." Wang Junlin decisively interrupted Nie Xiaoyu's preparation for a paper report similar to "On the Current Situation of the Sui Dynasty".
Nie Xiaoyu looked at Wang Junlin. After all, he was not a human being. He was stunned for a long time before he understood what Wang Junlin meant and said: "This has resulted in the powerful and wealthy families being able to ignore the law and act arbitrarily. Compared with the legal society of later generations, the safety factor is too high."
Worse, if you don't have strong power and force to protect yourself, you may be killed by the emperor, powerful families, important ministers and generals at any time. Now that the young master has been dismissed from his official position, he has lost the emperor's favor, and the young master's enemies are very powerful, and the King of Han
Li Liang, Duke Yang Su of Yue State, Yu Shi of Guan Long, etc., all pose a great threat to the life and safety of the young master."
Wang Junlin nodded and said seriously: "You are right, our current situation is not very good, and I also realize that we are weak, so I want to develop our power secretly, by the way---
---Get rid of these enemies one by one, including King Yang Liang of Han and Duke Yang Su of Yue."
Nie Xiaoyu was silent for a long time, and the light in his eyes flickered. Wang Junlin knew that the other party was not a human being after all, and his reaction time was sometimes very slow when thinking about problems, so he was not in a hurry at all, and smiled and said: "Xiaoyu, about development
I have made some arrangements for forces in Yongzhou and even the Western Regions before, but the main forces are all in the army of Zhangye County in Yongzhou, but these forces do not seem to be reliable now."
