Jia Yujing of Red Mansion

Chapter 232 Jia Qiong is jailed
That night, Jia Qiong thought for a long time alone in his study.

The Emperor's request to read his manuscript was obviously just a pretense. His real purpose was probably to exonerate Prince Ning, which is not difficult to guess.

What Jia Qiong was thinking about was how to deal with it, whether to follow the Emperor's wishes, to deal with it, or to argue with reason.

After weighing it repeatedly, he finally made up his mind.

Early the next morning, Jia Qiong went out with the manuscript of the first 21 chapters of Three Kingdoms.

All the way to the entrance of Chonghua Palace, Jia Qiong handed over the sign to meet him like last time.

Not long after the gatekeepers entered with his waist badge, a general walked out quickly.

Jia Qiong happened to know the visitor, Feng Ziying's father, Shenwu General Feng Tang.

Feng Tang clasped his fists from a distance and said, "Master Jia."

Jia Qiong cupped his hands and saluted and said, "General Feng."

Feng Tang smiled and said: "Master Jia, follow me. The Supreme Emperor is waiting for you at Penglai Pavilion."

Jia Qiong nodded and followed Feng Tang into the palace gate.

After leaving everyone's sight, Feng Tang changed his title. He asked in a low voice: "Xiao Nephew, why did the Supreme Emperor call you to the palace?"

Jia Qiong pointed to the cloth bag in his hand and said, "The Emperor wants to read my new book and asked me to send the manuscript."

Feng Tang said: "Prince Ning is going to Beijing soon. The Supreme Emperor summons you at this time. The purpose may not be that simple. My nephew, please be careful."

Jia Qiong nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle Shi, for reminding me. I won't have to."

The two of them came all the way to the outside of Penglai Pavilion. Feng Tang said to Jia Qiong, "I will send it here. My nephew, please go on your own."

Jia Qiong nodded, came to the Penglai Pavilion, and said to the eunuch guarding the gate: "Please let me know, Jia Qiong wants to see you."

"Master Jia, wait a moment."

The young eunuch entered the hall to report, and soon came out and said: "Master Jia, please come in."

Jia Qiong straightened her clothes and walked into the palace. She saw the Supreme Emperor sitting sideways on the dragon chair. He hurriedly took a few steps forward, bowed and saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Jia Qiong, comes to see the Supreme Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

The Supreme Emperor said: "Get flat."

Jia Qiong raised the cloth bag in his hand high above his head and said, "Thank you, the Emperor. I have brought the manuscript you requested. Please take a look at it."

The Supreme Emperor nodded, and Yun Qi, who was waiting at the side, stepped forward to take the bundle, opened it, and handed over the manuscript.

The Supreme Emperor took it, took a look at it, and asked: "Jia Qiong, did you write this? Why is the handwriting so beautiful?"

Jia Qiong bowed and replied: "Back to the Supreme Emperor, this is not my original manuscript. It was checked and copied by several of my sisters."

The Supreme Emperor nodded and said: "My eyes are a little blurred now and it is difficult for me to read.

I heard that you have a photographic memory. Please tell me about it. "

Jia Qiong bowed and said, "Yes, the Supreme Emperor.

Chen's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" tells the story of the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the destruction of Wu in the Western Jin Dynasty, and the three parts were unified.

Chen writes a romance novel, and some of the character stories here are fictitious, but the process is generally similar to history. "

The Supreme Emperor nodded and said, "I know it's a romance, so you can just tell the story."

Jia Qiong hurriedly said: "Yes, I obey the order.

In the first episode, three heroes from the banquet in Taoyuan became sworn brothers, and the first hero of the Yellow Turbans was killed for meritorious service.

Speaking of the general trend of the world, the long-term division must be united, and the long-term union must be divided.

During the weekend, the Seven Kingdoms fought against each other and were merged into Qin; after Qin was destroyed, Chu and Han fought against each other and were merged into Han.

The Han Dynasty revolted after Emperor Gaozu killed the White Snake and unified the world. Later, it was revived by Guangwu and spread to Emperor Xian, and it was divided into three kingdoms.

……

In February of the fourth year of Jianning, there was an earthquake in Luoyang; the sea water overflowed, and all the residents along the coast were swept into the sea by big waves.

In the first year of Guanghe, the hen turned into a male; on the first day of June, more than ten feet of black air flew into the Wende Hall; in the seventh month of autumn, a rainbow appeared in the Yutang, and all the shores of Wuyuan Mountain collapsed.All kinds of ominousness are not limited to one end. "

When Jia Qiong said this, the Supreme Emperor suddenly interrupted and said: "Disasters also occurred frequently in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It seems that the demise of the Han Dynasty was caused by God's will, and its strength was exhausted.

Jia Qiong, what do you think? "

Jia Qiong bowed and said: "Back to the Supreme Emperor, I believe that God's will is important, but the people's support is fundamental.

God's will may be unpredictable, but if the people's will is there, the country will not be lost. "

After hearing this, the Supreme Emperor nodded slightly and said, "That's right, let's continue."

"Yes. The emperor issued an edict to ask the ministers for the reason for the disaster. Yilang Cai Yong went to Shu...

Later, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Feng Xu, Duan Gui, Cao Jie, Hou Lan, Jian Shuo, Cheng Kuang, Xia Yun, and Guo Sheng became friends and became traitors, and they were named "Ten Constant Attendants".

The emperor trusted Zhang Rang and called him "father".

The government is failing day by day, causing confusion among the people in the world, and thieves are rising in droves. "

When Jia Qiong talked about this, the Supreme Emperor interrupted again: "Eunuchs have been causing troubles since ancient times.

Jia Qiong, why do you think this is? "

Jia Qiong said: "Back to the Supreme Emperor, eunuchs are always at the emperor's side. They are people close to the emperor, and naturally it is easier to gain the emperor's trust.

If the emperor is fatuous, he will easily be deceived and listen to slander.

In ancient times, eunuchs caused chaos because of their excessive power. As long as they are strictly restrained, the path of eunuchs will be insignificant."

"Well, go on."

“In the first month of the first year of Zhongping, the epidemic spread.

Zhang Jiao spreads talisman water to treat people's illnesses, and calls himself a "great virtuous teacher". "

……

In this way, Jia Qiong was telling stories, and the Supreme Emperor would interject a sentence from time to time. After the fifth chapter, the Supreme Emperor told him to stop.

"Okay, you must be tired after talking for so long, so that's all for today.

This book you wrote is very good, better than the previous ones. You are worthy of being the most talented person in my country. "

Jia Qiong hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you for the compliment, but I really don't dare to accept it."

The Supreme Emperor suddenly asked: "Prince Ning colluded with the White Lotus Sect and intended to rebel. What do you think of this matter?"

Jia Qiong secretly said that the real drama was coming. He guessed yesterday that the Supreme Emperor probably wanted him to save Prince Ning.

In the White Lotus Sect, only a few senior people knew that Prince Ning was colluding with the White Lotus Sect, and Jia Qiong was responsible for the interrogation of these people.

If he said that Prince Ning was just deceived and did not intend to collude with the White Lotus Sect, he would be exempted from this crime.

It was Xu Shan who raided Prince Ning's mansion. The evidence of Prince Ning's rebellion was still in his hands, so there was still a lot of room for maneuver in how to convict him.

Although he knew what the Emperor meant, Jia Qiong did not intend to comply with his wishes. He had already made up his mind last night.

Jia Qiong bowed and said: "Prince Ning, as a member of the royal family, did this rebellious thing.

If we are not severely punished, I am afraid that all the vassals will follow and the world will be unrest. "

The Supreme Emperor's face darkened when he heard this, and he said: "Jia Qiong, please think about it before you speak."

Under tremendous pressure, Jia Qiong said firmly: "Prince Ning is guilty of serious crimes and should be severely punished!"

The Emperor's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he asked word by word: "What is severe punishment?"

Jia Qiong took a deep breath and said, "Behead!"

The Supreme Emperor was furious when he heard this and roared: "Bold! Bold!

Come here, drag him out for me, with a hundred imperial staffs!Into the prison! "
