Father can be an enemy to the country
Chapter 707 Rebellious
There is a saying that 'the year is afraid of the mid-autumn moon, and people are afraid of the cold when they are forty-nine years old'.
After the end of autumn, winter comes in a blink of an eye. In another blink of an eye, the new year is approaching.
Hu Weiyong, who suffered the pain of two murders, lay at home for two months before he recovered. Laba finally started seeing guests on this day.
The person who arranged for him to receive guests was still Hu De. In the past two months, it was Hood who took care of him from time to time.
His mansion was already sparsely populated. Now that the son is gone, the wife has returned to her parents' home and will never come back. Even the coachman Lao Huang and the concierge Uncle Qin are dead. Beating after beating, scolding after scolding, I can only count on my nephew.
There were eight guests who came to his house to drink Laba porridge today, including many of the seven monkeys, and Li Shanchang's younger brother Li Cunyi. Li Cunyi's son Li You was also killed by the Zhu family and his son a few years ago, so he and Hu Weiyong felt the same hatred.
The case between the Seven Monkeys and the Fourth Prince has been dragged on until now. So now they are monkeys and not marquis...
In fact, the case was about to be closed, and Zhao Butang of the Criminal Department had already been handled lightly by both parties.
The main trouble on the Fourth's side is that one shot. After Zhao Zhu and the officials of the Ministry of Punishment calculated it, they concluded that the shots fired were "cannons", not "cannons".
Because the cannon beside the stone is a trebuchet. Laosi uses this kind of cannon to throw rocks to break the door, which is equivalent to a door-opening tool such as a hammer.
The severity is certainly much lower than using artillery in the capital.
As for the Seven Monkeys, it's even simpler. It's just settled as 'beat to death by mistake, the evil slave will bear the responsibility, pay a fine, and compensate the deceased'. There is no technical content at all.
Unexpectedly, just before the case was closed, Zhao Butang, who wanted to solve the problem with others, was actually killed first.
Last month, he was accused of accepting bribes to commute someone's sentence. Boss Zhu was so furious that he was pushed out and beaten to death with a cane.
Boss Zhu, still angry, ordered Zhao Zhu's entire family to be executed, and even his ancestral graves were dug up...
Anyone who knows the inside story knows that the emperor is simply making excuses. Zhao Zhu actually died killing a white duck for Hu Weiyong.
The dignified Minister of Justice, the emperor's minister of justice, did not strictly enforce the law for the emperor, but instead practiced favoritism on behalf of the prime minister. No emperor would be able to tolerate this kind of behavior.
Something like this happened to the previous minister, so Kaiji, who took over as minister, was naturally cautious. It was too late to cross the river with the egg in his hands, let alone wade through the muddy water.
The case was shelved indefinitely. The emperor did not urge them, but when the new year was approaching, he lifted the ban on the fourth prince and the seven monkeys and let them go out for a walk.
But we don’t know when the titles and positions will be restored, let alone military power...
It is conceivable that the seven monkeys are full of complaints and resentments, and they are almost filling the Qinhuai River.
So today’s Laba Banquet can be said to be a conference of the Alliance of Frustrated People...
~~
When the fragrant Laba porridge was served, Hu Weiyong started crying without even taking two sips.
Everyone knows that Hu Xiang misses his son again.
Li Cunyi also cried along with him and was moved by the scene. He also thought of his son who had been barbecued by Boss Hu.
Although the seven princes could not shed tears, they sighed deeply and could not help complaining about the emperor's coldness and ruthlessness.
"I'm ready to rebel." At this time, Hu Weiyong suddenly said quietly.
The atmosphere of crying, lamenting, and complaining suddenly stopped, and everyone stared at Hu Weiyong, who had been criticized for being timid, in stunned silence.
"Haha, Mr. Hu, I'm deaf and didn't hear clearly." Lu Zhongheng laughed and said, "You mean you've prepared breakfast for us?"
"Don't bother, we won't stay here, we can go home and drink till late." Li Cunyi and others quickly interrupted and said with a smile:
"Come on, drink, drink."
Hu Weiyong swept the crowd with cold eyes and raised his voice:
"What I'm saying is that I'm planning to rebel. Do you understand me?!"
"..." Now there was nothing anyone could do to interrupt, and no one dared to answer. There was a dead silence in the hall.
"Why, are you all scared?" Hu Weiyong glanced at everyone with disdain, and teased: "Aren't all of them very brave? Do you keep saying 'if you piss me off, you will rebel against your mother' all day long?"
"Don't you think I'm a coward all day long? Now that I'm a man, why are you so cowardly?" Hu Weiyong stood up on crutches and touched the shoulders of several monkeys with the tip of the stick.
The monkeys had no temper at all. Lu Zhongheng whispered with a embarrassed look on his face: "Didn't Xie also say, be careful that the walls have ears."
"Don't worry, there is no outsider in my house now. Even this meal was delivered by Xinghualou." Hu Weiyong said lightly: "Look at how scared you are."
Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good..."
"Why did Mr. Hu suddenly have such an idea?" Fei Jutan asked. Everyone looked at Lao Hu, wondering whether he was ill or had taken the wrong medicine.
"Why, my only son was killed by their father and son, and he was killed twice - isn't this a sufficient reason for rebellion?!" Hu Weiyong's old face turned red, even though two months had passed, he was still alive. Thinking of how badly he had been fooled, he still couldn't calm down.
"Ah, wasn't Lao Liu the one who did that? Was the Emperor also involved?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"Without the emperor's acquiescence, he dares to play with me so unscrupulously?" Hu Weiyong said coldly.
In fact, Boss Zhu was not involved at all in that matter. But people always tend to think of their opponents as stronger after a defeat. As if this would make his failure seem less embarrassing.
"But the superior has always been partial to Hu Xiang." Everyone said in confusion.
"Preference?" Hu Weiyong was so angry that his mouth twisted, and he trembled with his hands and said full of resentment: "If you really had a preference, you wouldn't have pretended to forgive my son knowing that I was kept in the dark. After I refused, you would have let me Go to prison and behead him. And then you deliberately let me find out that my son has been replaced again? Since ancient times, it has been rare for an emperor to play with the prime minister like this!"
"It's really too perverted." Everyone sighed: "Just thinking about it makes me feel bad for Mr. Hu. But why does the emperor treat Mr. Hu like this?"
"Isn't it because of you?" Hu Weiyong said coldly.
"Ah, us?" The seven monkeys pointed at themselves.
"Why did you guys turn a deaf ear to what I said in the first place?" Hu Weiyong completely stopped being polite to them and scolded them face to face:
"I told you, just ask for confessions and drive those spies out of the house. You are so bold, beat them to death, and even send them to the fourth child's house for a demonstration!
"Do you think the emperor doesn't know that you are going after him? What a good thing. What was originally a reasonable matter has become a forced one! If it hadn't been for that iron plate, the emperor would have put you seven to death. The skin was peeled off and hung on the Meridian Gate for public display!"
