Rumor Has It That I'm Pregnant with His Highness' Child Chapter 196

   Chapter 196 Powerless

   This morning, there was an official who went up to impeach the Prince of Langjun, saying that he used his power to bully others, had no respect for his superiors, and was disrespectful, and even put his mother-in-law in prison.

   said eloquently, and the spittle stars flew everywhere.

  The old emperor had already received the memorial sent by Xiao Juan and knew the whole story.

   After listening to the passionate accusation from the speaker, the old emperor spoke slowly.

   "The Jiang family colluded with the wanted criminals in an attempt to murder the eldest daughter left by the original spouse.

  The evidence is conclusive, and even she herself has pleaded guilty.

  The king of Langjun can ignore his personal feelings and enforce the law impartially, which is a model for the officials of the Dayan Dynasty.

  I can not only punish him, but also praise him greatly!

  I just want everyone in the world to know that as long as they break the law, no matter what their status, they will be punished! "

   Having said too many words in one breath, the old emperor felt a bit itchy in his throat and could not help coughing.

  Wei Huaien quickly brought warm tea to moisten his throat and served the old emperor to drink it.

   At this time, the civil and military officials did not dare to say a word, and the entire court was silent.

  Especially the official who stood up just now to accuse Prince Lang of treason, was already kneeling on the ground, his face as stupid as paper.

   After the old emperor drank the tea, his throat felt much more comfortable.

   He said to the speaker who was kneeling on the ground.

   "You didn't even know the whole story, so you jumped out and accused Prince Lang in a hurry. Don't you think you're too hasty?"

  The officer kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "It was Wei Chen who was wrong, please punish your Majesty."

   In the end he was fined a month's salary.

   And the king of Langjun got a good bow and arrow as a reward from the emperor.

   Jiang was sentenced to ten years of corvée.

   But because the Dayan Dynasty had privileges for the gentry, the corvée of the gentry could be offset with silver money, up to a maximum of seven years.

   In this way, the Jiang family only needs to serve three years of corvée.

  The matter was just revealed.

   bows and arrows were sent to the county palace.

  Yu Weiwei took the bow and arrow and looked left and right.

   She had learned archery before crossing, but she hadn't practiced it for a long time.

   She raised her bow and arrow and aimed it at the door.

   At this moment, Xiao Yan walked in.

   When he saw Yu Weiwei's movements, he couldn't help but pause.

   "You can shoot arrows?"

  Yu Weiwei replied vaguely: "A little bit."

   Xiao Juan was puzzled.

  The wild geese are open to folk customs, and it is not uncommon for women to ride horses.

   But few women learn archery.

   After all, women don't need to go to the battlefield, so archery is useless for them. If they practice too much, their fingers will be worn out and calluses will appear, which is very unsightly.

   Xiao Juan couldn't help but ask, "Who did you learn archery from?"

  Yu Weiwei didn't expect that when he said casually, the other party would have to go to the bottom of it.

   she said with a smile.

   "My grandfather's family runs an **** bureau. There are many escorts in the family. I learned horsemanship and archery from them."

   These words are half true and half false, even if Prince Lang wanted to investigate, it would be difficult to find out.

  Xiao Juan: "Since you can shoot arrows, this bow and arrow will be used by you."

  Yu Weiwei was very surprised: "This is a gift from the royal family, can you give it to anyone?"

   Xiao Juan was very indifferent.

   "You're not an outsider, you can use everything from this king at will."

   Yu Weiwei was very happy.

   There is a martial arts field in the palace of the county king.

   She ran to the martial arts field with a bow and arrow in her arms and shot two arrows at the target.

   The first arrow missed the target.

   The second arrow hit the target, but it was still far from the bullseye.

  Xiao Fan walked behind her, took her arm from behind, and lifted it slightly.

   "The elbow should be placed in this position, the hand should be steady, the fingertips should not be too hard, the body should not be too tight, just relax a little."

   At this time, the two were very close to each other.

   Looking at them from a distance, it was as if Xiao Lian was embracing Yu Curly from behind.

  Yu CuiCui didn't realize that there was anything wrong with this posture, and all her thoughts were on archery.

   After Xiao Lian's careful guidance, the next two arrows she shot didn't miss the target, and one of the arrows was so close to the bullseye that she almost hit the bullseye.

   She could clearly feel that her archery skills had improved a lot, and she felt even happier.

   Seeing her smiling happily, the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth also rose slightly.

   In the next period of time, Yu Weiwei will take time out every day to practice archery.

   Relying on her strong memory, she can learn much faster than ordinary people, and her archery skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

   Time flies, and a month has passed.

   King Min and his son's injuries are already in good condition.

   After careful consideration, the father and son decided to leave Yujing and go to their own fief.

As the emperor's brother, King Min was named a prince when he became an adult, and he also got a large fief. However, because the fief was too remote, coupled with the retention of the emperor and the empress dowager, King Min and his son stayed in Yujing to live. .

  The fiefs are taken care of by the officials of the court, so King Min doesn't need to worry about anything, he just needs to sit at home and wait for the officials to deliver the annual tax to his door.

   Originally, he thought it was a good day.

   But now it is different.

   King Min already knew that the emperor had doubts about him.

   If he continues to stay in Yujing, his life will not be long.

   Therefore, King Min wrote a book to the emperor, proposing the idea of ​​returning to the fief to live.

   The old emperor's face was not very good after reading the book.

   He didn't want King Min to return to the fief.

   Once King Min goes to the fief, when the sky is high and the emperor is far away, he can no longer control King Min.

   But he couldn't directly refuse King Min's request.

  According to the precedent, the prince should have lived in the fief and was not allowed to return to Beijing without an edict.

   King Min proposed to return the fief, which is reasonable.

  The old emperor's eyes turned and landed on the border defense map placed beside him.

   This border defense map of Liaodong County was submitted by Xiao Juan.

   was sent with this drawing, along with the closing statement on the anti-poem case.

The    anti-poem case was planned by Che Xuekun, whose purpose was to smear the image of the emperor in the hearts of the people and disturb the Dayan court.

   And these are just appearances.

   What he really wanted was the border map of Liaodong County.

   As long as he can send this picture to Chen Kingdom, then Liaodong County will become the possession of Chen Kingdom.

   When the army of Chen Kingdom captures Liaodong County, it can go all the way south and enter the hinterland of Dayan Kingdom.

  The old emperor was very annoyed.

   It is a small country, but it is only a small place, how dare you dare to invade the wild geese? !

  If he can still be twenty years younger... No, as long as he can be ten years younger, he will immediately be able to lead his division northwards, drive his own expedition, and beat the overstretched Chen Kingdom to the ground.

   However, he is old now, his body is getting weaker and weaker, and he is powerless to do many things.

   He threw the memorial **** the border map and commanded in a deep voice.

   "Wynn, send someone to call King Lang Jun."

   "Here."

   Soon Xiao Yan appeared in front of the old emperor.

   He saluted respectfully.

   "Wei Chen greets His Majesty."

  The old emperor said slowly: "King Min wants to return to the fief, do you think I should agree to him?"
