Happy Little Scholar

The two memorials were like two basins of ice water poured down, completely extinguishing the heated and boiling atmosphere in the court hall.

Prince Heng and Prince Feng are the first and third princes of Qi respectively. One is the eldest son with the most respected status, and the other has high prestige among the people and the court. He is extremely outstanding among the younger generation and is highly valued by the emperor. The prince.

Everyone knows that the next monarch of Qi must be one of these two.

The State of Qi does not believe that the eldest son has the absolute right to inherit. Whether it is the royal family or a large family, the capable one comes first. Letting the eldest prince and the third prince fight is also the meaning of being an emperor.

The eldest prince's daily actions are remarkable. Although he has no great achievements, he has not made any big mistakes. Compared with the exiled King of Shu in Jingguo, he can be regarded as a very qualified eldest prince.

Although the eldest son inheritance system is not feasible in Qi State, there are still some biases. Being able to stay in the capital for a long time is the greatest convenience for King Heng. If other princes perform mediocrely, his throne will not be affected. What a threat.

It is a pity that the third prince Zhao Yi really stands out among the other princes. Among the stars in the sky, he is also the one who can blind people. He shines so brightly that the emperor and all the ministers have to pay attention to him.

When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.

However, one of them is in the capital and the other is in Fengzhou. Although there were overt and covert fights in the past, they were within the control of everyone.

The third prince sent troops to surround the post station where the eldest prince and more than ten censors lived. This was a bit excessive.

"Your Majesty, King Feng is really too bold. He detained his brother and committed the crime below. The more than ten supervisory censors in the Yushitai also acted according to the order. I wonder what King Feng intended with this move?"

In the silence, someone finally stood up.

The speaker was Yushi Zhongcheng. Yushi Zhongcheng was the second-ranked official in Yushitai, and his status was only below that of Yushi Dafu.

On such occasions, the top leaders are often not allowed to speak casually. More than ten censors in the censorship were detained, which was equivalent to a slap in their faces. Therefore, even if the other party was the famous third prince, there had to be someone. Stand up and speak out.

As soon as he finished speaking, an official stood up and asked: "The following are guilty of the crime? The memorial only said that more than ten censors were temporarily detained, waiting for His Majesty's decision. Why is it that the following is guilty of the crime?"

The third prince was appreciated by many ministers in the court. At this time, there would naturally be people on his side.

The censor Zhongcheng immediately hesitated. What do you mean by temporarily detaining more than ten censors? The eldest prince is a human being, but the censors are not human beings?

"More than ten supervisory censors supervise the state capital and evaluate officials. They are acting under orders. What is King Feng's intention of detaining them without reason?"

"Didn't His Highness say that the Supervisory Censor wants to implement the method of subjugating the country and disrupt the foundation of the Qi State? The matter is serious and it is normal to be serious."

"The method of subjugating the country is too alarmist!"

"It's better to wait until His Majesty reads it before making a decision..."

…

…

In the court, the third prince and the eldest prince each have supporters, and there have always been constant disputes.

Due to the fact that the eldest prince checked the accounts a few days ago, this situation has amplified. I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional. Suddenly, there are more and more tricks to impeach the eldest prince.

His actions along the way were all revealed one by one. For example, the eldest prince indulged his subordinates, was frivolous with women in a certain state or county, handled a certain case in a biased manner, met with officials in a disheveled manner, and undermined the royal dignity...

There are some officials who have ulterior motives and want to hinder the implementation of the "debit and credit accounting method", but the things mentioned are all facts, and many courtiers have already criticized the eldest prince.

Now when it comes to the court dispute between him and the third prince, he will naturally stand on his opposite side.

Seeing the quarrel below again, the Emperor of Qi handed over a letter, and a eunuch immediately handed it to the two prime ministers at the front of the hundred officials.

After the two old men read it, their beards trembled and their arms trembled slightly, and they passed it to the person behind them.

As the memorial was circulated, the noisy court gradually became quiet.

The Emperor of Qi looked calm, with no expression on his face. When the court was extremely quiet, he finally waved his hand and said, "Please tell me what you think, sir!"

An old man at the front of the hundred officials stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, there is no precedent for discussing crimes!"

An old man next to him also took a step forward and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Feng's memorial has been written very clearly, detailing several major crimes against Yin Sin. This method is absolutely impossible!"

Both prime ministers spoke up, and others in the court couldn't help but watch.

"Your Majesty, think twice!"

"It's absolutely inappropriate to discuss crimes with money!"

"His Royal Highness Prince Feng is right, this is shaking the foundation of the country!"

The Censor Zhongcheng and the Censor Doctor exchanged glances, and the former stood up and said solemnly: "The Censor's Office did not know about the Censor's actions in advance. Those who act arbitrarily will be severely punished by the Censor's Office!"

Although some people think that this method of discussing crimes is extremely considerate. If it can be implemented, it will be able to destroy money and eliminate disasters in the future. It is simply a life-saving tool. The eldest prince is really considerate of others...

Ideas are ideas, and so many high-ranking officials are strongly opposed to it. Judging from the appearance of the two prime ministers, if anyone dares to say "good", they will be slapped in the face.

The only reason to blame is that the third prince's letter analyzed the shortcomings of the sin-discussing method to the point of the point. He quoted from other sources and was so brilliant in writing that he could not find any refutation at all.

Above, the man in dragon robe still looked calm, but he let out a long sigh in his heart.

It has to be said that when he saw the three words "criminal silver", he was also tempted. Once this method came out, he no longer had to worry about the national treasury having no silver available. There was a steady stream of financial support, and he could do anything he wanted to do. Everything is supported by financial resources.

However, he still has some scruples after all. Once he opens his mouth, it will be difficult to stop it, and it will only cause greater damage.

He stood up and said slowly: "Eight hundred miles is urgent, call Prince Heng and Prince Feng back to the capital!"

…

The many days of disputes in the court finally ended.

The debate over the debit and credit accounting method is not over, but has been temporarily suppressed, because there are more important things than this that need to be resolved first.

How could the supervisory censor have the courage to recommend such a method? There must be the instruction of the eldest prince. Although this method can indeed relieve the national treasury, as the third prince said, this is based on the premise of overdrafting the country's capital. If things go on like this, the country will There will be no country.

These two incidents happened to create a sharp contrast between the two princes.

One is simple-minded and does things regardless of the consequences, while the other is thoughtful and far-sighted. He is no better than someone who doesn’t know. When they compare with each other, they are startled. Everyone realizes more deeply that King Heng is far worse than King Feng...

This time, His Majesty summoned two people to Beijing at the same time, which has a very different meaning.

The battle between the eldest prince and the third prince is related to the development of Qi State for a long time in the future. If it were another person, the scene might be completely different.

Perhaps, the situation in the court and even the entire Qi State will undergo earth-shaking changes after a period of time.

…

Li Yi glanced at the counter and said: "The design style must be flexible and diverse, and you cannot always imitate others. It must have the style of the Lin family, so that when others see these jewelry, they will know that they are from Fanglin Garden. "

Lin Wanru nodded and said: "If you want to accomplish this, I'm afraid it won't be accomplished in a short time."

"You have to do things step by step, and you must not be eager for quick success, otherwise you will only get worse." Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Just like the eldest prince, if he lacks money, he should also find the right path. If he has to implement some kind of crime-discussing money, he should still Too impatient." "

"It is not advisable to rush for success." He sighed and said: "Young people, it is very dangerous to have such thoughts...".
