Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 509

[Chapter 509 People should not die in vain]

While talking about the tragic situation after Linhe’s embankment burst, King Yu scolded the officials above the court again with a gun and a stick. Not only did the emperor not stop him, but he sighed with the description of King Yu.

Seeing this, many officials wisely forgot their words of persuasion and knelt down silently. They had been officials in the court for a long time, and they had some understanding of the emperor’s thoughts. In this situation, the emperor did not want to shut down Yi at all. Meaning of water city.

After listening to King Yu’s description, the emperor was silent for a moment, and then said: “The people suffer, because the emperor is incompetent, I will immediately issue an edict of guilt, and then personally sacrifice to the sky to pray for the people.”

The officials hurriedly knelt down and shouted: “The emperor is merciful…”

“I know that you are also thinking of the people, but the method is indeed a little extreme. I can’t just watch the people suffer, and I won’t give up anyone easily. There is no need to say more about the closure of Yishui City. Let’s go back and think about how to love the people and protect the foundation of our Dali Dynasty, instead of following others’ advice. All day long, you only know how to persuade on your knees. As the humeral ministers of my Dali Dynasty, you are the backbone of the court. If your knees are soft, kneel if you say you kneel, then I will choose some tough people to come up.”

“Yes.”

The courtiers came in with pale faces and staggered away. Many people fell seriously ill after returning. Some of them were just a little cold, and they didn’t know what was wrong. hold on.

When the courtiers left, King Yu hurriedly got up from the chair and knelt on the ground, no longer the frenzied look before, and his expression was extraordinarily solemn: “Father, my son is disobedient, please punish the father.”

The emperor looked at him with a cold expression on his face. After a while, he sighed: “Get up, I know you are feeling uncomfortable.”

But King Yu didn’t get up, he still knelt on the ground, this time, he didn’t cry, no tears fell, but the grief all over his body was even worse than before: “Father…”

The emperor gritted his teeth: “What are you doing?”

“My son asks the father and the emperor to be the master of the people, and severely punish the king of Jin and the king of Ling!”

“You…you get up!”

“Father, the sons and ministers will not stand up. I beg you to be the master of the people and severely punish the two murderers, King Jin and King Ling!”

The emperor closed his eyes, and on the table in front of him, it seemed like the salt tax deficient case file and several testimonies presented by King Yu, his hand was holding the testimony of Tongzhi Linjiang, trembling unbelievably: “Jun Yu, I understand what you mean, but I have my own considerations, I can’t let the people of the world poke the backbone of the Ning family, and I can’t let the descendants of the Ning family leave the sins of killing tens of thousands of people in the history books.”

“Father, did the common people die in vain?” King Yu raised his head, his face full of grief and grief, “It was not one person, but tens of thousands of lives! Father, you understand the temperament of my son, son said today. They are all words from the bottom of my heart, and I don’t mean to take the opportunity to eradicate dissidents. My son is just sad, saddened by the fact that the country that the father and the emperor spent so much time guarding has been destroyed and collapsed because of two unsatisfactory sons!”

The emperor widened his eyes, gritted his teeth and gritted his forehead with blue veins surging. After breathing quickly, he leaned on the armrest beside the throne, and his body gradually slumped.

King Yu felt a pain in his heart, and quickly stepped forward to support the emperor’s arm: “Father, this son knows that he is wrong, please take care of the dragon’s body.”

The emperor looked at King Yu’s rough hand. There were scars on his hands, and some bloodstained on them: “I am not a good emperor, let alone a good father…”

“Father, you are. It’s the eldest brother and the third brother who are ignorant. They did something wrong.”

The emperor shook his head: “You step back, I want to be alone for a while.”

“…Yes, Royal Father, please take care of the dragon’s body, the world still needs your care.”

King Yu walked out of the hall and quickly instructed the attendant on the side: “Go to the palace of the eldest princess, and ask the eldest princess Yide to accompany the royal father.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

After King Yu retreated, the emperor turned his eyes to the outside of the hall. At this time, the sun outside the hall was just right, and the light shone on the steps of the white marble inlaid with gold, and the light was extraordinarily dazzling.

He just sat there watching silently until the sun was west and it was dark outside.

Xu Li stepped forward to comfort him several times, but he didn’t get the slightest response from the emperor. Just when there was nothing he could do, Princess Yide walked into the hall.

“Princess…”

“Go down.” Princess Yide held a wine jug in one hand and two wine glasses in the other. After Xu Li and other palace servants had retreated, she walked to the steps below the throne and sat down, turning her head to look at the emperor, “Emperor Would you like to try my new sweet-scented osmanthus?”

The emperor blinked his sore eyes, slowly moved his stiff body, walked down and sat next to Princess Yide, picked up the wine glass placed on the steps, picked up the wine jug and filled it up for himself, then raised his head. All in one drink.

Princess Yide took a glass of wine and sipped slowly. Seeing the emperor’s appearance, she couldn’t help but chuckle: “The emperor really wasted a pot of good wine. This is what Yao’er brewed for me. already.”

“Wait for Yao’er to come back and let her brew another batch. I also like this taste very much.”

“Then we have to ask King Yue whether he agrees or not. The child of King Yue can protect the person he likes very closely.”

“Jun Yue… Huangjie, you already know about Jiangnan, right?”

“Well, I received some news.” Princess Yide did not hide it, “Jun Ling and Jun Jin have gone too far this time.”

The emperor poured another glass of wine and drank it, with a deep light in his eyes: “If I follow my previous temperament and know this news, I will definitely ban the two of them to death, but now that I am old, I do everything I do. Powerless… Sister Huang, when I saw the case files sent by Jun Yu, I even subconsciously helped them both find excuses, hoping to prove that this matter was not what they did…”

“The heart of a parent is always soft, and the emperor is understandable to think so.”

“Sister Huang, you said that I…what should I do?”

Princess Yide turned her head to look at the emperor, with a slight smile on her lips: “Hasn’t the emperor already made a decision in his heart?”

“Zhen… Huangjie, I can’t let the people disappoint the court, but I won’t spare them both lightly.”

Princess Yide nodded: “Since the emperor has made a decision, then just do it according to his own ideas.”

“But I’m worried that this will condone them and make others think I’m covering up.” The emperor sighed, feeling more and more disappointed with King Ling and King Jin in his heart, “Sister Huang, this is the first time I feel such a panic.”

Jun Yu’s tears and grief were not fakes. Through the description in his mouth, he could imagine the tragic situation in Yishui City. Fortunately, Yun Yao mastered the prescription to suppress the epidemic, so that people infected with the epidemic could survive. If there is no prescription for her. , I am afraid that not only Yishui City, but those nearby cities will suffer from pond fish. At that time, how should he, the emperor, explain to the people of the world?

“It is the blessing of all people in the world that the emperor can feel this way.” Princess Yide looked at the emperor’s uneasy look, and felt very emotional. She did not see the wrong person. Even though the emperor in front of her has been in control of the world for many years, she has not lost it The reverence of the imperial power and the people in the heart is because of this, and the Dali Dynasty can thrive and prosper.

“Sister Huang, don’t comfort me.” The emperor smiled bitterly, drinking glass after glass, and stopped until there was no more wine left in the jug.

Princess Yide took back the jug and glass, and held it in her hands again: “I have a good drink, I am so drunk that I am hurt, and I have finished drinking, so I can do whatever I need to do, there are so many things in the court, There is no room for the emperor to be lazy.”

The person in front of him is the emperor of the Dali Dynasty. Even if he is sometimes weak, he does not need deliberate comfort. He knows what to do and where his path is.
