The Prince Regent’s Violent Medical Consort Chapter 383: Swords go sideways
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty-Third
Over the council hall, everyone is here.
A total of thirteen people from the royal clan came to the palace, including the deputy clan chief, King Bao'an. As for the King of Yuedong, they were also temporarily invited into the palace.
Murong Jie invites everyone to take a seat. This is the council hall. In the past, ministers discussed political affairs here. Therefore, there are many chairs and office projects.
After everyone was seated, Murong Jie looked around at everyone and said slowly, "Today, please come to the council hall, there is something that the king wants to discuss with everyone. The clan and ministers present know that the emperor has authorized This king, if the crown prince commits evil deeds, this king has the right to depose the crown prince."
Mr. Liang immediately stood up and said, "My lord, dare to ask if there is an imperial decree on this matter?"
Murong Jie's eyes fell on Taifu Liang's face, "Does Taifu not believe what this king said?"
Mr. Liang smiled and shook his head, "No, the lord must be misunderstood. The lower official just thinks that deposing the prince is a matter of national importance and should not be taken lightly. Without the emperor's express decree, the lower officials would not dare to discuss this matter."
Murong Jie said: "If the master doesn't dare to discuss this matter, he can retire."
The master said suddenly: "My lord, this is a big matter, please forgive me for being rude and bluntly speaking. The purpose of establishing the prince was to consolidate the foundation of my great Zhou, and to shake the status of the prince is to shake the foundation of my great Zhou. The emperor's decree, the lower officials believe, should not be put forward by labor and teachers today."
Murong Jie sneered, "What is the Taifu doing in such a hurry? Has this king proposed to abolish the prince now?"
Mr. Liang was startled and looked a little annoyed, "Your Highness is talking in a different way. It was only now that you said that you had called the clan and officials to abolish the crown prince. Now you say you haven't mentioned it."
Master Cui said: "Why should the master be angry? The prince just told everyone that he has the power to depose the prince, but he didn't say that he wanted to depose the prince, but when the master heard this question, he got angry. It is also necessary to clarify the purpose and to smash the base of the Dazhou Roots, which can not help but make people think deeply.”
Mr. Liang said angrily: "If it wasn't for the idea of abolishing the prince, why would you call so many people here?"
Everyone was very surprised. This Taifu Liang used to be the most composure. Why did the lord not say anything today, so he was in a hurry? This is very unusual.
Murong Jie knew that he was delaying time and attacking first, preventing him from speaking up about today's issues and waiting for the arrival of the Queen and the Queen Mother.
Sure enough, I heard the guards shouting outside: "The Queen Mother is here, the Queen is here!"
Murong Jie clearly saw that Mrs. Liang's expression relaxed, and he sat down.
The Empress Dowager walked in quickly, accompanied by Eunuch Sun, followed by the Empress.
Clan relatives and officials stood up, "I see the Empress Dowager, see the Empress Dowager!"
Murong Jie also got up and stepped forward to support the Empress Dowager, "Why is the Empress Mother here?"
The empress dowager said lightly: "I heard that the prince called the clan and the officials to discuss matters. It must be very important. The Aijia happened to have nothing to do, so I came to listen. Would the prince mind?"
Her voice and tone were all very cold, and she was not as close to Murong Jie as she used to be, so it was obvious that she didn't like what he did today.
"It's okay for the empress to listen in," Murong Jie ordered someone to bring a chair and let the empress dowager sit on the front seat, while he moved his seat.
The empress dowager sat on the seat he had just sat, and said: "The prince is the regent, and he is discussing major national affairs. The Aijia women don't understand anything, just listen to it."
Murong Jie didn't hold back and sat down.
The queen and the master exchanged a wink and took their seats.
Although the empress dowager was only listening, she sat down and asked, "What is the matter discussed today? The labor clan is actually required to enter the palace."
Murong Jie said: "Empress mother, this king and Tai Fu were discussing just now whether this king has the authority to dismiss the prince."
The empress dowager's eyes tightened and she said, "The lord naturally has the right to do this. Aijia heard the emperor's words with his own ears, but I don't know what serious crime the crown prince committed to depose him?"
The queen mother took the initiative to open the topic, but the queen was startled.
However, she saw that the Queen Mother was on her side, very stiff, with her hands on the armrests of the chair, as if ready to go, she knew that if the Prince Regent spoke out about the Crown Prince and Concubine Yi, she would Will get up immediately to stop it.
Murong Jie said loudly: "Everyone, I summoned everyone to the council hall today because the prince did something that damaged the friendship between Da Zhou and Liang Guo, and today he committed unkindness to Princess Zhen Guo. The crime of filial piety made this king have great doubts about the prince's virtue. This king invited everyone to enter the palace to discuss this matter. What kind of crime should be imposed on the prince? To put it bluntly, today is for the prince. The temple considers sin."
The Empress Dowager relaxed slightly upon hearing this. At least the two crimes he mentioned did not involve fornication with Concubine Yi.
On the other hand, the Queen and Mrs. Liang were startled for a while. This damage to the diplomatic relations between the two countries is probably due to the desire of the regent. As for being unkind and unfilial to Princess Zhenguo, this is even more nonsense. Princess Zhenguo is now lying on the bed. , there is only one breath left. The prince's unfilial piety is at most not going to visit. It is ridiculous to use these two things to discuss crimes.
Master Liang asked: "My lord, please tell me, what is the matter that damages the diplomatic relations between the two countries? Is it the Prince of Liang, Song Ruiyang, who has complained to the lord? The prince has spent the past two days recovering in the palace. Offending the Prince of Liang."
The clansmen and ministers also peeped at each other. Yes, I heard that the prince was injured. How did this offend the prince of Liang? If the Prince of Liang Guo complained to the prince, he would have ulterior motives.
"Your Highness, could this be a misunderstanding? There should be no conflict between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the envoy of the Liang Kingdom." said the Minister of the Ministry of Housing.
Murong Jie stretched out his hand and pressed it down, "Don't be impatient, since this king has brought charges, he will naturally explain the situation. Today, Prince Song Ruiyang of Liang State told this king that Prince Murongqiao kidnapped Wang Yi'er, the prince of Liang State, and brought him with him. When I got to the imperial temple, this king has already ordered someone to bring the monks from the imperial temple to the palace, and they will be able to enter the palace in a moment. Since the witness has not arrived, I will talk about the second one now.”
As soon as Murong Jie's voice fell, the queen said, "My lord, how could this Wang Yi'er be the county master of Liang? She is clearly a commoner of my Da Zhou."
Murong Jie glanced at the Queen lightly, "Yes or not, I will have the Prince of Liang entered the palace to testify, but, listening to the Queen, it seems that the Prince has captured Wang Yi'er."
Everyone looked at the queen, and the queen looked a little embarrassed, but she bluntly said, "Yes, this Gong knows about this, and this Gong has already punished him for this."
"Dare to ask how the queen punished? How to deal with it?" Murong Jie asked.
The queen raised her chin and said, "Bengong has already punished him for three months of immobilization. There is a reason for this light punishment. King Liang has taught him a lesson, and he was beaten all over, so he didn't beat him again. Only fined for three months."
The king of Bao'an said: "The empress's handling is unbiased, and it doesn't matter whether this Wang Yier's identity is the county lord of the Liang Kingdom, even if it is just a common girl in my day, the prince's kidnapping of the common girl is a criminal offense. It must be dealt with according to the law."
