Chapter 54 (Beat the King's Whip)

could a sage who preached propriety and benevolence think that it was enough to govern the people by the law alone If you are willing to use your head a little more, you will not make such a small mi...when Huayang filed a complaint against the king, the king of Hunan was not idle. On the day Wu run left Lingzhou with his prisoners, the king summoned two counsellors, who quoted the classics by the counselors. He personally wrote a letter of sincere apology.

this is an apology for flirting with Huayang unintentionally.

when the people flocked to Ningyuan to tell on him, watching Huayang send an urgent letter of six hundred miles, the king of Hunan hurriedly called in a counselor and wrote a second letter to defend himself. He was not stupid and admitted some "minor sins." for example, the tenants of the royal house inadvertently occupied the land of the people and negated the great crimes of capturing people and killing them.

his two letters arrived only half a day later than those of Huayang.

Emperor Jingshun could no longer spare the King of Xiang.

the patriarchal parents of the vassal kings are fat beetles distributed all over the country, occupying nearly 10% of the country's arable land, which is still recorded, and only they know how much land they have privately occupied by the people.

the arable land of the clan king does not have to pay tax, at the same time, they can get a large amount of salary from the imperial court every year, and the money and tax collected by the imperial court from the hands of the people can hardly afford to support these clan kings and relatives.

if he can do as he pleases, Emperor Jingshun would like to remove all the kings and confiscate all the private property of the palace!

can not withdraw, he will put up with it, the clan king made some small mistakes, in order to show the emperor's kindness to his relatives, he can also bear it.

but this time, the king of Xiang is going to extend his hand to his daughter, and if he endures it, he will thoroughly throw the majesty of the emperor under the feet of his clan and patriarchal relatives, and let them step on it!

before the two imperial envoys set out, Emperor Jingshun only told them to act impartially.

the imperial messengers quickly arrived in Lingzhou City on the ninth day of April. The first thing to do in the city was to visit Princess Huayang in Ningyuan.

Chen Jingzong was in the Wei office, and Huayang changed into a bright yellow dress. Accompanied by two servant girls, Zhou Ji, the commander of the guard, and Wu Run, who returned half an hour earlier, he summoned two imperial messengers.

when the imperial messengers gave their names, Huayang knew that they were the two men who came to investigate the King of Xiang in their previous life. one was Shi Yao, a former friend of his father, and the other was Zheng Hong, who did not quite deal with his father.

it is needless to say that Huayang admires his father, but she does not go so far as to regard his political enemies as bad guys, such as Zheng Hong. In his last life, he also agreed with his father's exposure of the 13 charges against the king of Xiang, just insisting that the king of Hunan had no intention of rebellion.

the King of Xiang really did not intend to revolt. He raised the standard of grievance because he was stupid, so Shi Yao's accusation of rebellion was not innocent.

in the final analysis, the two imperial envoys are both right, and the only one who is wrong is Xiang Wang.

after greeting Anan, Zheng Hong took over a long box from his follower. Shi Yao took out a roll of Ming Huang imperial edicts and said to Huayang, "Princess, the emperor has a will."

Huayang just left the table and knelt down to listen to orders.

Shangjingshun Emperor mainly said three things. First, he soothed his daughter's grievances, then praised her daughter for her benevolent and righteous heart to avenge the people, and finally, Jingshun Di gave her daughter a whip from the king to his subjects, and her daughter could whip anyone who offended her daughter or maimed the people. Beating the king's whip is of great significance. Jingshun Emperor wants his daughter to use it cautiously. If it is proved that she has been beaten more than three times, the emperor will take back the whip.

although Emperor Jingshun set conditions for his daughter's use, this is the first time that the emperor of this dynasty has given the king whip, which shows the prosperity of Huayang's holy favor.

this "whipping the King" is also very appropriate to the situation. Who let Huayang really be flirted by a vassal king and beat him with a whip

this is how Emperor Jingshun wants to tell the world that his princess played well and that he fully supported him as his father.

"the minister thanked his father for his grace."

Huayang likes this gift very much, even though she may not use it several times in her life.

with both hands, he took the long box containing the whip of the king, and Huayang stood up with the help of two servant girls.

Zheng Hong looked solemn: "Princess, minister and so on have to go to Xiang Wangfu to investigate the case, so I will retire because it is inconvenient to stay for a long time."

Huayang: "go ahead, adults, despite the fairness of the trial, do not judge him unjustly just because I sued the king of Xiang, and do not cause the people to suffer injustice just because he is a vassal king."

"the princess is wise, the minister and other noses keep in mind."

Wu run went to see off two imperial messengers.

Huayang told Zhou Ji, "send someone to Xiangwangfu to have a look. If there is any change, please feel free to report it."

Zhou Ji led the way.

then Huayang put the long box on the table and opened it.

in the previous dynasty, there was also an example of emperors rewarding virtuous officials to beat the king's whip. It was called a whip, which was actually a mace. It was a long and unbladed four-edged weapon, which looked majestic, but it actually carried a lot of weight. It took Chen Jingzong, Zhou Jina and other brave and martial men to use it freely.

my father must have taken this into consideration. The whip given to her was a leather whip made of cow tendons, the first red golden dragon, and the whip was about seven feet long.

Huayang tried to dump it, but it was quite easy.

Chaoyun said with a smile, "if the princess had got this whip, she should have beaten the king of Hunan with her own hands that day."

Huayang: "he doesn't deserve it."

she likes this whip, and not anyone who wants to get it can get it.

"put it away."

.

towards dusk, Zhou Jilai was revived, saying that the men he sent had been watching outside the Xiangwang mansion for a long time, but nothing unusual was found for the time being.

Huayang remembered the files he had seen in his previous life. At that time, before the imperial messengers arrived in Lingzhou City, the King of Xiang raised the "standard of grievances" high, which could be seen by the people all over the city.

Why didn't the King of Xiang lift it in his life

it was nothing more than watching people play dishes. His father told him that the king of Xiang dared to complain when it was Huayang's turn. When it was Huayang's turn, the king of Xiang did not dare to be strong. Moreover, this time, the son of King Xiang and more than 20 bodyguards were first taken to the capital and handed over to Jin Yiwei for trial. Where was Jin Yiwei they were able to find out how many bowls of wine the King of Xiang drank on a certain day. The King of Xiang probably knew that the crime was indisputable and accepted his fate.

without the case of "rebellion", the father-in-law's charge of "falsely accusing the pro-clan" will be completely eradicated.

Huayang is in a good mood.

she has done so much, not only to bring the Chen family to a good end, but also to let her brother leave a good name in youth history.

"the bird of prey is exhausted, the good bow is hidden; the cunning rabbit dies, and the running dog cooks", all these words can sympathize with the hero and criticize the king.

in Huayang's view, it doesn't do any good for his younger brother to treat the Chen family like that except to incur a bad name for himself. Maybe the younger brother is to take back the power that was once held by his father into his own hands, but the father is dead, and what he leaves to his brother is also worthy of being reused. He is the pillar talent who helped his brother to create the rule of ZTE for several years with his father. When the father is alive, they may take the father as the leader. Once the father dies, the brother will govern himself again, and these people will naturally listen to their brother. Why do you have to root out the father-in-law in such an extreme way

Huayang cherishes the prosperity of the country and the well-being of the people in those years. ZTE is brought about by the reform of his father. Those subjects who take advantage of his younger brother's youthfulness and support and encourage him to abolish his father's reform is nothing more than to continue to follow the road of corrupt officials and accumulate the fat of the people for their own use.

Huayang has no ambition. Her husband's family is her little family, and the world is her princess's family.

the only thing she wants is to be happy at home.oing to stay for three nights.the big shop can sleep fifteen soldiers, and Chen Jingzong chose the one near the door.he was the first to take off his boots, but Qin Wei and others were not too embarra...
