Chapter 310 Why don't you answer?
Chapter 310 Why don’t you reply?
"Crown Prince, please explain to me why Bai Aiqing died in your East Palace?"
The saint supported his knees with his hands and looked at the prince kneeling on the ground. Although he did not scold him loudly, his cold voice made people shudder.
Lu Jiu looked at his eyes, nose, mouth, mouth, heart, standing beside the old emperor, as if the old god had entered into meditation, squinted without a trace of sound.
I didn't hear the questions between the royal father and his two sons. Lu Jiu had seen so many of these things, so he naturally knew how to deal with them.
The prince shivered and glanced at the dick standing beside him.
"I really don't know. My son just asked about the compilation of the Tang Dynasty's complete books. Maybe there was something wrong with the words, but I just asked, why is it copying if it is not a compilation?
My son is not as good as learning with the second emperor's brother, and he doesn't know much about ancient books and classics, so he has always been doing things in a low-key manner. His father said before that if he asks someone he doesn't understand, he will ask the same question."
The saint nodded, raised his hand to support his temple, and seemed a little uncomfortable, and forced himself to look at the prince.
The second prince stepped forward and bowed and said:
"Father, I didn't ask this question."
The old emperor looked up and glanced at the second son who was the most powerful in studying. His anger was already suppressing.
"Oh, what else didn't tell me?"
"The emperor said that the father asked Gu to supervise this matter to see the compilation of the Tang Dynasty's entire book. If Gu Ru understood it, there would be no need for all Hanlins.
But I asked how to compile and explain it. I just asked a question about copying and inclusion. Is this the loyalty of the Bai Qing family to the court?"
At the end of the day, the word "loyalty" was almost squeezed out with biting the back teeth.
With such a tone, you can feel how angry the second prince was at this moment.
After all, this Hanlin Grand Secretary Bai Shaoqing is both a teacher and a friend.
For many years, I have compiled the complete book of the Tang Dynasty with my ailment. If I had not been this person, I would not have had this book. The more I thought about it, the more sad the second prince was, and finally he covered his face and cried.
The old emperor looked at his second son and sighed. Although this son was unruly, he had real skills and was doing it with his heart.
He glanced at the prince kneeling on the ground and felt even more angry.
This eldest son has no outstanding points in all aspects. The most praiseworthy thing now is his generousness, but he is so rude to the old minister.
"Have you said this?"
The prince shivered for a moment, trying to calm himself down. Thinking of He Zhenren's advice, he knocked his head on the ground and said:
"My son is stupid and can't be circling around. He is not as good as his second brother in knowledge and is not as good as his third brother. But even though he is so stupid, he just always wants to do something by himself and share his worries for his father.
He tried his best to do everything the father gave to him, but he didn't expect that he would do bad things with good intentions. He didn't know that the Hanlin Grand Secretary had such a temper and was not a son's minister.
But Erchen didn't understand that no matter which minister, he was the father's minister. The prince in the court supervised these matters and wanted to ask, could he not?
Is this the loyalty that a minister should have when he is so difficult for a sentence? The minister is stupid, but the minister can't figure it out!"
When the prince said this, he was already a little choked, lowered his eyes, stared at the ground and tried hard to control his emotions. He looked up again and then put away the water in his eyes.
"My son remembered that when his mother was alive, she often told me that the father was benevolent and virtuous. My son did not have the ability of his father, so he could only try his best to imitate it. It seems that his son's qualifications are mediocre. I asked his father to punish him severely. Even if he took the position of the Eastern Palace, he would have no complaints. My son received the punishment!"
As he said that, he knelt on the ground without saying anything, his body trembled slightly, as if he was extremely aggrieved on his back and could not defend himself.
The old emperor looked at the prince and said that this son had many bad things, and it could even be said to be extremely mediocre.
But when I thought of the deceased Queen Liu, the old emperor became soft-hearted.
He could prolong his life so much. If he had not been recommended by Queen Liu, he would not have met He Zhenren, nor would he have allowed him to firmly sit in the position of emperor. After all, he had no children for many years and had been criticized by court officials.
The old emperor sighed and looked at the second prince, who also looked up at the old emperor at this time.
The second prince was a little anxious because he saw soft hearts in the eyes of the old emperor.
If you are soft-hearted, wouldn’t Bai Shaoqing die in vain? He hit a pillar in the East Palace and died? What a big deal? How could he get over it by asking for his father?
"Father, this matter is not possible"
The old emperor raised his hand and interrupted the second prince Li Yu's words.
"That's it. The prince's words are not in custody in front of him. He temporarily left the affairs in charge of Yu'er. He should think about his mistakes in the closed doors and copy the four books. I will personally review them.
The Bai Qing family is no longer there, and you still have to compile your Tang Dynasty book and find someone to follow it as soon as possible. As for the Bai Qing family, in my name, they will be buried with the Bai Qing family according to the ceremony of a first-rank marquis, and the eldest son of the Bai family is named Hanyang Bo."
Li Yu raised his head, looking disbelief.
Isn’t this arrangement arriving with his hands high? In fact, nothing is left behind. A confinement or punishment is what punishment is this? And what is the matter of controlling the prince?
But he couldn't say much about everything he gave to the Bai family. After all, Bai Shaoqing had a hard life and didn't even have a decent mansion. The family was crowded in a small courtyard, and half of the yard was rented out to fill the family's income.
This arrangement is exactly what Li Yu is most confused about.
Looking at the prince lying on the ground and constantly thanking him, Li Yu couldn't say a word, but suddenly he thought of something and his eyes lit up.
"I thank Master Bai for his father's kindness. I'll go to the Bai family to comfort him."
The old emperor smiled with satisfaction and reached out to Lu Jiu next to him. Lu Jiu quickly helped the old emperor up. The old emperor walked to Li Yu and patted Li Yu's back of his hand.
"Yu'er knows to share my worries, I'm very pleased."
Li Yu bowed slightly, with concern on his face.
"As the son of the father, it is the duty of the son minister to share his worries. By the way, before entering the palace today, I heard from the servants in the son minister's house that there seemed to be something wrong with the Crescent Valley, and even the vehicles to deliver goods to the southern border could not pass. The Qing family army blocked the road in the valley.
My son is worried about my third brother, and I don’t know if the military pay and food sent by the emperor have arrived in the southern border. It’s a long time to calculate, and it’s probably more than twenty days, right?”
The prince had already stood up at this time, stood with his head down. When he heard the three words "Cream Valley", his feet became soft and he almost collapsed, trying to keep himself calm, but such actions had attracted the attention of the old emperor.
"Prince, the second brother asked you, why don't you answer, don't you know?"
