As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere instantly became cold and silent.
Dong's face was as cold as frost, and he frowned and said nothing, while Dong Chong got up. These days, because of the disappearance of his eldest son, Dong Chong has been exhausted and exhausted. But at this moment, Yuan Wei said this
The words exploded in his ears like thunder, and he couldn't help but stand up, staring at Yuan Wei with his red eyes, speechless.
"It seems that Mr. Dong knows a lot about this matter. How about you tell me something about it?"
"This matter... was just made up by the slave to make the young prince happy. The young prince is only eighty-nine years old. Why do you want to punish the young prince for his crime?" Dong said again.
"How dare I govern the young ruler? What's more, if the young ruler is a child, what crime is he guilty of? Those domestic slaves can be used for convenience? We can find out one or two."
"Chun Zhong is busy with things. He is working hard at the office of Manager Liu in my house. You can come in person!"
Yuan Wei looked at the two people in front of him seriously, but he was thinking in his heart that he must put the blame on the nobles of the Hou Mansion for this matter. Only then can he be regarded as a political achievement. Otherwise, he would just arrest a few deceitful domestic slaves.
That is not political achievement and reputation, that is self-loss of face. If I interrogate those domestic slaves first, the domestic slaves will definitely bear the crime themselves and lie about auspiciousness. So what will happen to this crime?
As the prime minister of the country, I can only gain some reputation if I cause some troubles in the Marquis Mansion, and it is best to reprimand these powerful clans in person. In that case, I don't have to talk about resigning and studying hard, maybe I can
Taking advantage of his father's influence to work directly at the Chancellor's desk, borrowing his father's influence is naturally not based on connections, but through the power of the Yuan family. The Yuan family's disciples are all over the world, and his father and uncle have many close friends. As long as they have some political achievements, they can't be promoted.
A word to the ear.
"The noble man wrongly blamed Wei. The slaves spread rumors and caused trouble, which was an evil deed to ruin the Hou Mansion. Wei came here to clear the name of the Hou Mansion, and he did not want my Han clan to be stigmatized!"
"It turns out that the envoy came here to reprimand my mother and son. There are no men in the house of women and children in my house. If you act like this, you will only be ridiculed by the world."
Yuan Wei's expression did not change, he looked at Mr. Dong calmly, stood up, cupped his hands, and said: "Although the young prince is young, he is a member of the Han clan, and he is also the grand nephew of the emperor. I have appointed myself as Prime Minister of Hejian. The people will be happy and the king will be virtuous.
Good officials and officials work together, and the people's customs are becoming more and more good, but they read the holy words. The young prince is young and ignorant, and allows his slaves to secretly spread auspiciousness and commit deception. Even if the young prince is noble, I am willing to teach him on my father's behalf! Teach him etiquette and morality!
He does benevolent things and practices filial piety!"
"Yuan Zi is rude!!" Dong shouted angrily.
However, Yuan Wei's words were so high-sounding that even outsiders would be impressed by his personality and his character of not fearing the powerful. Han officials were not afraid of the powerful. They all had their heads smashed and even deliberately looked for trouble.
Slandering the powerful and killing powerful people has become the code of conduct for almost every Han official. This year, Cheng Jin, the governor of Nanyang, imprisoned local powerful Zhang Fan.
What was the crime? The crime was that he intended to bribe the eunuchs of the court. When the emperor learned about it, he ordered Zhang Fan to be pardoned. Cheng Jin ignored the pardon and still executed Zhang Fan and killed more than 200 guests of his clan!! The entire Zhang Fan
The family was destroyed! Was it just an attempt to bribe the eunuchs in the court? At the same time, Liu Zhi, the governor of Taiyuan, arrested Zhao Jin of Huangmen in the county, and actually killed his clan for the crime of not doing good things!
These two people immediately became famous in the world. Both scholars and common people regarded these two as examples of not being afraid of powerful people. Even if the powerful people just wanted to bribe the eunuchs, the Huangmen was just not doing good things and had a bad reputation in the countryside.
They were directly exterminated. The officials in the late Han Dynasty were crazy. Under this weird system of promoting filial piety and integrity, countless weird filial sons and weird upright officials were born!
In this era, there are filial sons who kill their sons to feed their mothers, upright officials who kill concubines to reward the army, and tens of thousands of ordinary officials like Yuan Wei, whose eyes are only in vain. For this reason, they keep a close eye on the powerful and powerful of all walks of life. If they make a small mistake, they will be punished.
Crazy massacres, therefore, looking through the history books of the Han Dynasty, how many upright and famous officials are there? The strong points, the strong points, the uniform biographies of famous officials say, "Kill the powerful, the people will obey", it says "divorce your wife and resign, fight to the death"
Powerful person!
And Yuan Wei was using this incident to reprimand the Marquis mercilessly. He knew that the Young Master was only nine years old, but did the world know? They only knew that he was just a minister, while the Marquis was a nobleman.
The emperor did not give in to his power and reprimanded him face to face! The more Yuan Kai talked about it, the happier he became, and he even found out Liu Hong's deceased father.
What Yuan Wei hopes most at this moment is that Dong can write a letter to His Majesty, so that Your Majesty will be furious and put him in jail. From now on, he will be as famous as Cheng Jin and Liu Zhi, and he will become a wise man among everyone.
A famous minister, leaving his name in history!
Dong Chong is not a prostitute, but how can he compare with Yuan Wei in terms of eloquence? Hearing the anger, he couldn't speak at all. He was so angry that he trembled all over. He gritted his teeth and looked at his brother. Although Dong Chong had read a few books, but
But he couldn't compare with a child from a noble family like Yuan Wei. He opened his mouth and sighed helplessly. Yuan Wei showed a smile on his lips and said to Dong: "Where is the Young Master? Maybe I can meet him?"
Mrs. Dong turned her head and ignored him.
Yuan Wei looked at Dong Chong again, and Dong Chong had no choice but to bow his hands to him and said: "Your Majesty, come with me." Then he took him to the study. When he came to the door of the study, he saw that the study was closed tightly.
, the sound of reading came from the room, and Yuan Wei was also stunned. When did the children of the clan start studying? There are also outstanding people in the clan, such as Liu Biao, who was ranked among the eighth chefs at a young age, and is really a talent of the clan.
However, in a clan as close to the emperor as Liu Hong, there are very few people who study and become officials!
He stood at the door, motionless, listening to the sound of reading coming from inside.
A servant said: "Your Majesty, would you like to knock on the door and let me know?"
"The ram is so elegant that I can't bear to disturb it."
Dong Chong had no choice but to stand here to accompany him. After waiting for more than an hour, everyone stood a little unsteadily, and then the door was slowly pushed open. The old man walked out quickly and saw that the servants were angry and resentful.
With an expression on his face, he then looked at the official seal pendant around Yuan Wei's waist. The old man stopped, with his hands behind his back, and looked up at them. He was greeted by a heroic spirit.
"Greetings to the old man!" Yuan Wei bowed respectfully, and everyone paid their respects.
The old man didn't even respond. He just waved casually and continued to raise his head. The little fat man jumped out. When he saw the old man standing in front of the door, his expression changed. He immediately straightened his clothes and acted like a handsome gentleman.
Yuan Wei didn't get a return gift from the old man, so he wasn't discouraged or angry. He looked at the little fat man on the side and looked at him with a smile.
At this moment, the little fat man was also looking at these uninvited guests. Seeing that his uncle looked unhappy and the boys around him were a little hostile towards them, he couldn't help but feel a little hostile towards Yuan Wei. He straightened his back and asked carelessly. Said: "Who are you?"
"I am the great-great-grandson of Yuan Zhaogong, the grandson of Yuan Gaoshi, my father Tang Ren is the late Taiwei, and I am the Prime Minister of Hejian!"
"Since you have studied and seen two thousand stones, why don't you bow before you?"
He spoke loudly and forcefully, and the little fat man who spoke was also a little confused. What he was talking about was Ren, what great-great-grandson? His surname was Yuan Mingwei? He had never heard of it? He straightened his sleeves, raised his head and said :
"Hong Nai is the great-great-grandson of Emperor Suzong and Emperor Gao, the grandson of Emperor Xiaozhang of Hejian! The great-nephew of the current emperor!"
What's the origin of the comparison? I've been emperors since Grandpa Zeng! Are you worthy of comparing with me? Even higher up, the ancestors can say go to the Red Emperor! What about you, your surname is Yuan? The ancestors go up for more than ten generations, Who are you? A monkey farmer?
No one knew what the little fat man was thinking, but this sonorous and powerful answer shocked everyone. Even the old man looked at the little fat man with interest, wanting to see what else he could say.
"Who are you? I am the Marquis of Jiedu Ting! Why do you need to salute?"
