Chapter 12: The Great Ceremony of the Five National Leagues: The Blood Stained Red Sleeve Square
Since the 63rd year of Zhaoyue, Fuhua, the fifth prince of Nansheng Kingdom, glanced at a woman in the imperial capital, and he couldn't sleep or eat every day, so he asked about the woman's name and surname everywhere.
Later I learned that she was the courtesan girl from Hongxiufang, a famous imperial capital. She played the piano well and was also arrogant and arrogant, only selling her skills but not selling herself.
Fuhua was born warlike and had extraordinary power in the arrangement of troops. However, the country of Nansheng has always been peaceful and the people are at peace. Even if the belligerent factors in the body are ready to move, there is no place to use their skills.
Fuhua is devoted to studying tactics on weekdays and does not go to places of love, snow and moon, so she has never heard of her.
But from then on, the fifth prince, who exuded murderous aura, entered and left Hongxiufang every day. He used to be without drinking, but now he is singing every night, drunk as mud.
Looking at Nansheng Kingdom, except for Fuhua and Fuchen who are traveling abroad, which other prince is not holding his arms around and has a lot of wives and concubines?
Emperor Nansheng had wanted to find a few ladies who were as beautiful as flowers and as beautiful as jade for him over the years, but he said: "Whoever the king and father want their sons to marry, they will always obey the sage orders, but they will definitely not touch them at all."
As soon as these words were said, although Emperor Nan Sheng was extremely angry, he could not control Fuhua's private affairs, nor could he be wronged by the daughters. Otherwise, the court officials would definitely not let his ears be purified and he would chatter endlessly.
So Emperor Nan Sheng did not interfere in Fuhua's marriage. Who made him the pride of Nan Sheng? Although he was not as good as the dead Gu Qiuci, he was still an extraordinary treasure after all.
When those young men who stayed away from Fuhua saw him in Hongxiufang, they were all dumbfounded and thought they had read the wrong person.
"How could such a majestic fifth prince be in love with the place of love and moon?"
"Brother Li said this badly. The so-called heroes are hard to pass the beauty, and the king of heaven is no exception, let alone the prince. Hahahahaha."
"It makes sense and reasonable, but as a prince, he still appears in the brothel so proudly, and it seems that he is not the case."
"Yes, yes, the world's wind is declining, the world's wind is declining."
"Shh, don't want to survive? Speak quietly. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Three or four rich children mocked him when they saw him coming, but due to his identity and strength, they had to hide aside and talk nonsense.
Over time, the news of the prince being drunk and brotheled throughout the five countries. Emperor Nan Sheng's face turned purple when he heard about this. Although his son was arrogant before, he always obeyed his words, but this time he refused to change his life. No matter how he punished him, whether he copied the royal laws or confinement to the foot stick... but he went again after he finished.
In short, as long as he is still alive, no one can stop him from going to Hongxiufang. Emperor Nan Sheng wanted to enthrone Hongxiufang, but this practice undoubtedly confirmed the fact that his favorite son was obsessed with brothel prostitutes.
Youyou people couldn't stop it even if they wanted to, so they just let him go. Two years have passed, and people in the world are no longer surprised.
Fuhua didn't do anything when he went to Hongxiufang, so he just listened to Huayan playing the piano and drank some wine to cheer up.
Hua Yan would occasionally drink a few drinks with him, but he rarely talked and was mostly silent.
Fuhua wanted to take her as a good wife, but after learning that she had already had an affair, she had to give up even though she was unwilling to do so. It was not his style to force others, and his women must be convinced by him.
On that day, Fuhua came to Hongxiufang again to listen to her playing songs. Here, the orioles danced, and even the air was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere. Today, she wore blue clothes and white sleeves, making her every frown and smile in her eyes. She was so enchanting that even if someone approached, he never noticed it.
"Tsk tsk, Miss Wu Yan's piano sound is elegant and has a delicate sound. In addition, this cherry Fan Sukou and Yang Liu***, whoever wants to see it wants to have a love for you, hahaha." Lord Qin, who seemed elegant and handsome, broke into the spacious and bright room, ignored Fuhua's existence, and circled around her.
Immediately, he smashed Qin to the ground, and pinched Huan Yan's chin with his hands. He squinted his eyes and looked at Fuhua. "Look at this little face, it's really white and tender. No wonder the fifth prince who is not close to the female sex is fascinated by the fact that he is." The more she struggled, the more proud he became.
The trouble made by Qin Gun attracted a lot of people to watch. Fuhua and Qin Gun have always been disagreement, and they have been competing openly and secretly. Although Fuhua is a prince, the Qin family has a great family and a great career, so he regarded Fuhua as a thorn in his eyes for many years. This is well-known to the people of Nansheng.
Three years ago, Qin Gun was mourning for his mother and never showed up. He never thought that he had just gotten rid of the clothes yesterday and came to Hongxiufang to cause trouble today.
Fuhua held the wine glass and his face became gloomy, saying word by word: "Let her go."
When Qin Gun heard this, he increased the strength in his hands and sneered: "Is this an order? If the fifth prince marrys this humble brothel woman who cannot be on the table in the future, give birth to a daughter and a child as a slave, will he have to kneel three times and kowtow nine times?"
The people who were watching the fun with breath held their breath and heard such heart-wrenching words, their faces were filled with sweat, which made them so scared that they all dissipated.
Fuhua was as cold as ice. He put down his wine glass, picked up his sword and walked towards him. The words in his mouth were still the unimpressed and angry words: "Let her go."
What Qin Gun disliked the most was his arrogant look. He was immediately annoyed. A weak woman, Wu Yan, was thrown to the cold ground by him, with his palms ruthlessly and tears in his eyes.
Everyone looked up and looked at Fuhua. I wonder if this prince of good-wicked martial arts would be angry and beauties, and then repair Qin Gun.
As Fuhua approached him step by step, everyone's breathing became heavier.
Qin Gun raised his head and laughed without retreating. "Gun was born and wanted to be a gentleman, but the prince was aggressive and made Gun feel embarrassed."
Qin Gun's father instilled in him the idea of "the ruler is the leader of the minister" since he was a child, but his ambition to be inferior to others was growing increasingly, especially when the Chinese people praised Fuhua for its military talents, he was even more dissatisfied.
When Fuhua was three steps away from him, he was already murderous. He quickly drew his sword with his backhand and raised it flat in his chest.
"If the king wants his minister to die, he has to die. If the fifth prince wants to take action, hurry up and don't let me wait for a long time. Hahaha." Qin Gun said coldly.
The long sword was so cold that it fell on his neck without any bias. Fuhua looked at the Wanyan who was falling to the ground and shook her head hard at him, and his eyes darkened.
"Okay. It's as Lord Qin wished."
After speaking, Fuhua's hand holding the sword tightened, and Qin Gun fell to the ground with a crisp "bang" sound, and his head fell to the ground with the sword, and blood splattered everywhere.
Fuhua calmly helped up the panicked Wan Yan.
In an instant, screams came one after another. Everyone kept kowtowing, "Fifth Prince, please spare me."
Fuhua glanced at them after hearing this, and then they rolled and crawled to escape.
The reason why he allowed Qin Gun to act willful in the past was not because he was timid and afraid of things and did not dare to offend Qin Gun. It was just because Qin Gun had not touched his bottom line, so he disdained to argue with him.
Qin Gun's arrival at this point today was all his own fault. Who made him irresponsible for Fuhua without knowing the greatness of heaven and earth?
He was decisive in killing and vicious, and his name was made up out of thin air by the world?
Soon, the news that Fuhua's blood-killing Qin Gun was spread quickly, and everyone was shocked.
After the Duke of Qin brought Qin Gun's body back, he burst into tears and felt sad. He just left his original wife three years ago, but lost his beloved son three years later.
How many people can withstand such sufferings in the world?
So, the Duke of Qin made a big fuss in the court the next day, striving to punish Emperor Nan Sheng severely and to seek justice for his son to comfort his spirit in heaven.
All civil and military officials have different opinions, and they look like they hate Fuhua's behavior.
After Emperor Nan Sheng learned the whole story, he called him to the imperial study that night, beating and scolding him. Fuhua didn't explain and let his sentence fall.
The Duke of Qin knelt down with tears and tears, "Emperor! The dog's corpse is not cold, you have to make the decision for him."
"The fifth prince has been lingering in the fireworks alleys and willows in recent years, and now he has openly killed Lord Qin Gun and Lord Qin. If he is not punished seriously, it may be difficult for the public to resent." Lord Li, who is acquainted with the Qin clan, said.
Another minister made a strong statement: "The emperor violated the law and was punished with the common people. According to the laws of the Nansheng Kingdom, one life should be paid for one life."
"A man cannot be resurrected by death, and the Duke of Qin is mourning. The fifth prince's actions are indeed inappropriate. However, I have verified that it was caused by Lord Qin's provocation and rude words. According to the law, the ministers and subordinates should punish the nine clans!" Prime Minister Wang, who has always been taciturn and has no doubts about Fuhua, defended him this time.
In this way, Qin Gun's death became a crime.
When the four words of killing the nine clans resounded in the hall, the Duke of Qin was immediately frightened and quickly defended: "Please investigate clearly, my Qin family has been loyal to the emperor for generations, and there has never been a word of offense to Yue Ju."
"Oh?'If the fifth prince marrys this humble brothel woman who cannot be promoted to the market in the future, give birth to a daughter and a child as a slave, will he have to kneel three times and kowtow nine times?' This is what the son said in person, and everyone in Hongxiufang can testify. What explanation should Duke Qin do?"
"It's outrageous!" Emperor Nan Sheng, who had been silent, was displeased when he heard this.
"Please calm down." The minister leaned on the ground and looked at each other after hearing what Prime Minister Wang said.
The ruthless words should really kill the nine clans, and he would be more advantageous if he died.
"Is this how Qin Duke educated his children all the time?" Emperor Nan Sheng threw the memorial to impeach Fuhua in his hand and threw it in front of the Duke of Qin, which scared him so much that he shivered all over.
"I have no way to teach my son, and I deserve to die."
At this time, a guard said, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince is asking for a meeting."
"Prince."
At the entrance of the court, Fuhua was calm and composed, as if he had not realized that he had been impeached by all officials, and went to the center of the hall and saluted neither humble nor arrogantly: "My son pays homage to his father, long live the father."
Emperor Nan Sheng looked a little gentle to Fuhua at this moment, but his voice still scolded him and asked, "Fuhua, do you know your guilt?"
"My son doesn't know." Fuhua answered openly, as if he really didn't know what crime he had committed.
The emperor asked again: "Has Lord Qin been killed by you?"
"yes."
“Why?”
Fuhua looked at Duke Qin quietly and replied, "He moved people who shouldn't be moved, said things he shouldn't be said, and he should die."
"Emperor, he is the son..." Duke Qin was in tears, but he didn't know what to do. The justice was not successful, and he also implicated the Qin clan.
"Your Majesty, the truth is clear, please decide." Prime Minister Wang said.
"The fifth prince was punished by Fu Hua for one hundred strokes and reduced his salary for two years. Qin Gun did not know the high and low, but thought that he was dead, the Qin clan was exempted from sitting and retreating to the court."
"The emperor is wise and respectfully send him to the emperor."
