Chapter 177: Ao Ting Tragedy! Rebellion!(1/3)
So did Ao Ting say this?
What should I say? It should be said.
But that was a few years ago, but the Supreme Emperor has not abdicated yet, so this word is not sensitive.
At that time, the Supreme Emperor that everyone recognized should be the one in the Great Xia Empire hundreds of years ago.
The situation was very complicated at that time. A certain generation of emperors died suddenly and had no son, so they could only adopt a young prince from the royal family to inherit the throne.
This young prince had a father, but this father was still a powerful minister of the imperial court. Because of public opinion, he could not be the emperor himself, so he pushed his son to the throne.
When this young emperor ascended the throne, he was only twelve years old, so of course his father was the one who held the power. He first conferred the regent, but later he felt dissatisfied, so he conferred the Supreme Emperor.
The Supreme Emperor of the Great Xia Empire took charge of the empire for 35 years. After he died, the forty-seven emperors officially took power.
The situation of the Ao family is similar. The descendants of the previous generation of the Anlang Marquis died young and those who died in battle died in battle, so no one inherited the title, so Ao Xin was adopted.
After Ao Xin became the Marquis of Nulang, he continued to make achievements and glorify his ancestors, but within the Ao family, Ao Ting always had the final say.
Ao Ting always disliked Ao Yu and corporal punishment was carried out at any time. Of course, Ao Xin couldn't bear to let it go, so he went to Ao Ting to plead with him.
Ao Ting forced Ao Xin to kneel down in the ancestral hall and said in public that although you are the Marquis of Nulang, I have the final say in this family, and I am the Supreme Emperor of the Ao family.
Many people heard this when he said it.
But at that time, Emperor Tianyan had not abdicated, and there was no Emperor in the Southern Zhou Dynasty. Of course, it doesn't matter, it's not very serious. Moreover, when Emperor Tianyan was in power, the public opinion atmosphere in the world was still very relaxed.
But now...
You are jumping into the fire pit, you are hitting the knife.
It's so heartbroken! Are you implicitly mocking His Majesty the Emperor?
You Ao Ting is the Supreme Emperor, so Ao Xin is the same as the emperor. But now Ao Xin is in prison. Are you cursing His Majesty the Emperor?
And you also said that you have the final say in this family. Are you implicitly mocking His Majesty the Emperor as a puppet?
He can't associate this, and this association can scare people's urine.
What is the situation now? It’s like a pot of boiling oil, any drop of water will fry the pot.
Ao Ting really fainted directly. Several people rushed forward to take medicine and pressed the person.
"Father, father."
"Old ancestor, ancestor, wake up quickly."
……………………………………
At this time, the imperial envoy in the Governor's Office was speechless and scolded Ao Yu for being troubled.
This time he came to Jiangzhou as a villain, killing countless people, and I don’t know how many people will be resentful.
Now it's finally over, and I've tried to calm down Jiangzhou gradually. You, Ao Yu, are so good, adding another fire to make the whole situation boil.
Your Ao family is so cruel, it’s totally fun to stab each other.
But Ao Yu reported it in public, and the imperial envoy who served as the Minister of Justice should not be regarded as not hearing it, otherwise he would be in trouble.
"Come here, bring Ao Ting!"
………………………………
Several doctors here tried their best to wake up their ancestor Ao Ting.
A group of people surrounded his bedside, and his eyes suddenly found Ao Ming, his beloved grandson.
"Minger, what should I do now...? What should I do?"
The son Earl Ao Jing said, "Otherwise, I will refuse to admit it and sue the little beast Ao Yu for false accusation?"
Ao Ming shook his head and said, "No, when grandpa said this, many people heard it. If you don't admit it at this time, it would be a deception to the emperor, and the crime might be even greater."
Ao Ting said: "But if you accept it, your Majesty will hold a grudge."
Ao Ming said: "Wait!"
The ancestor Ao Ting trembled and said, "Wait? What are you waiting for?"
Ao Ming said: "Wait for the arrival of greater changes!"
And at this moment, my son rushed in from outside.
"Father, father, the guard of the imperial envoy is here."
Ao Ting shook all over, his eyes turned dark, and he almost fainted again. It cannot be said that he was useless, the key is that the atmosphere is too terrible now, and it is just a little bit broken.
Who is not afraid of death in this world? Only Yun Zhonghe’s previous madman would not care about life and death.
"Hurry, go and welcome it." Ao Ting trembled.
No need, because the imperial guard rushed in directly and said in a cold voice: "Who is Ao Ting?"
"I am." Ao Ting stepped forward and bowed.
"You go with us!"
………………………………
In the Governor's Office, several adults had already settled down. The head was the imperial envoy, the Censor Central Committee on the left, and the Dali Temple Minister on the right.
Although this place is not a capital city, the scene in front of me is really like the three officials’ trial.
Here, Ao Ting finally met Ao Yu again.
Why is this little beast, a little evil beast, not dead yet? And why is the evil beast Ao Xin in the capital, not dead yet?
If you die, wouldn’t there be nothing left? How can you be full of storms in the city now?
These two people don’t need to kneel. Although Ao Ting did not pass the imperial examination or passed the Jinshi, he was also an official who retired, and he was over 70 years old. People over this age could not kneel when they saw officials. After all, the Southern Zhou Empire was also considered to be a filial piety.
Ao Yu is still a new science and learning Yuan Dynasty, and his fame and fortune have not been deprived, so he doesn't need to kneel down.
"Is Ao Ting in the hall?" asked the imperial envoy.
"It's the old man." Ao Ting bowed and said. Although he fainted at home, he was meticulous in this court, even neither humble nor arrogant. He had seen strong storms.
The imperial envoy said, "Ao Yu told you that you had said something ruthless, can you admit it?"
Ao Ting said: "Before I admit it, can I ask the law of the Great Zhou?"
The imperial envoy said, "Of course."
Ao Ting said: "According to the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how should a son sue his father? How should a grandson sue his grandfather? "
This ancestor Ao Ting is still very sharp. He immediately launched a sharp counterattack as soon as he went to court.
Before the imperial envoy said anything, the Censor Zhongcheng said directly: "Son sue his father, even if his father is guilty, his son will be punished with fifty sticks and wear shackles for half a year. The grandson sues his grandfather, even if his grandfather is guilty, his grandson will be punished with one hundred sticks and wear shackles for a year."
The laws of the Southern Zhou Empire are really like this, not only the Southern Zhou Empire, but also the Daying Empire.
Only a country like the Western Liang Kingdom, which is regarded as a barbarian, does not have this law.
Ao Ting said: "Ao Xin was adopted by my younger brother. He is my biological son, so Ao Yu is my grandson. He actually told his grandfather that according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, should he be punished for a hundred rods and worn shackles for a year?"
The Censor Zhongcheng said: "I should be punished with a hundred sticks and wear shackles for a year. My Great Zhou Empire governs the country with filial piety. If my grandson wants to report his grandfather, what is the ethics?"
Then, the loyal minister of the Censor said to the imperial envoy: "Sir, my subordinates believe that Ao Yu should be punished with one hundred o'clock immediately and the case will be interrogated again."
Damn, if Yun Zhonghe was beaten with a hundred sticks, he would be killed directly.
Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but look at the Censor Zhongcheng.
This person is not right, he is very hostile to him.
Of course, the person who was in the court some time ago, the person who wanted to put Ao Xin to death was the Censor Central Censor who attacked the most cruel person Ao Xin when the rage Marquis Ao Xin attacked the ruthless man.
Obviously, he was the gangster of a big man in the court and was desperate to kill Ao Xin.
Moreover, this person is the culprit who drove Lord Yu Zheng out of the Censorate.
Before, Lord Yu Zheng was the Chief Censor of the Censor, but Yu Wen Zhu was so embarrassed that he took the opportunity to drive out of the Censorate and went to the Leng Yamen, the Sitianjian, which is a dog-free man.
After driving Yu Zheng away, Yu Wenzhu replaced him and became the new Chief Censor. Although Lord Yu Zheng and Ao Yu didn't have much contact, they were already close friends and were definitely considered political ally.
Moreover, in that fictitious imperial examination fraud case, Lord Yu Zheng, as the chief examiner, helped Yun Zhonghe Tian very much.
So the Censor Yu Wenzhu in front of him is the enemy.
The imperial envoy seemed to like Ao Yu, and after hearing what the Censor General said, he ordered Ao Yu to be blamed.
Let’s fight you half-death first, and it will make you troublesome. The original job he had to finish in Jiangzhou was that you, Ao Yujie, had a lot of trouble.
"Come here..." the imperial envoy said in a cold voice.
Suddenly, several warriors stepped forward, holding thick water and fire sticks in their hands, and several warriors were about to come up to take off Ao Yu's pants.
If you were beaten with a hundred sticks, even if you were still alive, you would have incontinence in the future, and that function would be directly destroyed.
The ancestor Ao Ting's eyes were cruel and happy. Little beast, let you report me and beat you half to death first.
"Slowly!" Ao Yu said: "May I ask the imperial envoy, and the Censor Zhongcheng, according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, what should the parents abandon their children?"
The Censor Zhongcheng said in a cold voice: "On that day, Ao Ting adopted his son to the former ancestral Noble Marquis. He was pitying his brothers and letting him inherit incense. How could he be called abandoned? So this cannot change the fact that he is Ao Xin's father, nor can he change the fact that he is your grandfather."
