"The general wants to cut off another ear." The empress dowager sarcastically.

"My name..." The general's ear twitched, and he felt mixed emotions.

The Empress Dowager said again: "If you expose your own shortcomings, you are an open-minded gentleman. Otherwise, you would deliberately sell a flaw. What does the general think?"

"This..." He Jin's mind flipped. Let's not talk about the upright gentleman for now. What if he deliberately bought a flaw?

Seeing that he was silent, Empress Dowager He said, "If you deliberately set up a situation and lead the court to criticize the court, like the general, you can't bear it and take action rashly. You want to kill the King of Ji. So you 'will be guilty of being punished, so you will be 'worry for no reason'. At this time, you will test the 'people's hearts'. The general thinks that the people in the world, inside and outside the court, the northern border, the vassal states of the Western Regions, the Qiang Di, the Bingzhou Xiongnu, the three counties Wuhuan, the four counties destroyed Hu, the Vietnamese barbarians, the three Han island barbarians, and the overseas Japanese... how many are you willing to believe that King Ji is innocent."

"My name..." He Jin burst into cold sweat.

"The King of Ji is willing to reveal his shortcomings and prove his innocence." The Empress Dowager concluded.

"If..." He Jin was still unwilling to give up.

"No, Ruru." Empress Dowager He was determined.

"What if..." He Jin still wanted to argue.

"There is no possibility." Empress Dowager He waved his sleeves decisively. Seeing that the general was unhappy, Empress Dowager He advised softly: "My son has not yet been given a pride, and the Emperor is behind the curtain to supervise the country. Even if the general is in front of his nephew, he argues with reason and angrily. How could the Emperor Dou, the Emperor of the Emperor of the Curtain, make the General come true?"

"Oh..." He Jin just woke up.

Empress Dowager He said again: "Previously, after hearing the general's words, the Right State Order also involved the Jucheng mutiny. The general thought that if we follow the root of the matter at this time, would there be advantages or disadvantages for General Yu?"

"I have known everything." He Jin clasped his fists in a silence and retreated with grievance.

Watching the eldest brother come out of the hall, He Hou sighed secretly.

If the deposed emperor does not return to the country for one day, the sword will be fencing on the Age's grand flat seat, and there will be no conclusion for a day. If the deposed emperor suddenly speaks and says, the general will be assassinated first. Dong Chong will join forces with King Ji to kill the whole family of He.

Before the deposed emperor could be silenced, he turned around and wanted to eliminate King Ji. It was so unwise that he was erected to stand up against the enemy on his back.

Yongle Palace, the main hall.

General Dong Chong of the Cavalry and Yang Biao of the Young Mansion of Yongle came to pay a visit.

The Empress Dowager Dong said from behind the curtain: "What are your opinions on the Ji State to eliminate traitors?"

Dong Chong curled his lips and looked at Yang Biao again.

Yang Biao stood up and replied: "Everyone knows that great wise men and evil thief Zhang Jiao. I don't know that there is a great master of the Mo family and a master of the gods. It is rumored that this person is terminally ill and has not been long. There is no need to be public. However, King Ji ordered the prime minister of the left and right country to be tried, and the important ministers above 2,000 stones attended. It shows that he hated evil and was ignorant of the traitor."

Dong Chong was very happy: "My teacher is just as the young mansion said."

"This thief poisoned the beautiful king and assassinated the late emperor. He also almost harmed Your Majesty in Age." The emperor, Empress Dowager Dong, was in a slump: "How can you forgive me easily?"

"I think..." Dong Chong just started and hurriedly stopped.

"Say." The Queen of the Curtain did not comment.

Dong Chong said, "My beautiful man Wang was killed innocently, so he should be so destined. The late emperor was also deceived by the rebel king Fen. When he was patrolling the old house in Hejian, he was stabbed by the black mountain bandit Zhang Feiyan. Later, he died in the sand dune... It was also destined. The wise man once said, "Yao suffered from floods, Tang suffered from severe droughts, and his fate was always there."

"What a 'destiny'." The Empress Dowager Dong said with sadness.

"After all, it's 'one who dies cannot be resurrected'." Dong Chong gritted his teeth and said, "For the sake of the present, we should take into account the overall situation."

Seeing that the Taihuang Empress Dowager Dong was secretly crying, Dong Chong simply explained: "The Shao Emperor succeeded to the throne and Empress Dowager Dou was behind the curtain, which was a foregone conclusion. If he had a rash fight with King Ji at this time, he would be attacked from both sides. If the general led the army to besiege, he would have to watch the 10,000 elite soldiers in Hanyuan would be on the wall. The Taihuang was in danger."

"I am the grandmother of the young emperor, who dares to be ruthless!"

"Empress Dowager He is the biological mother of the Shao Emperor." Dong Chong smiled bitterly: "At the time, King Ji submitted a letter to him and named Yang Shaofu as the Grand Tutor, so he wanted to preserve Dong's family. After the Shao Emperor Yuanfu was in power, he should use the Grand Tutor to record the affairs of the Shangshu. If he had a help from the other ministers, he could still compete with He. If he had a feud with King Ji at this time, Dong's family would be destroyed."

After putting away the crying, the Empress Dowager Dong asked Yang Biao: "The Shaofu thought that King Ji and this thief would be in vain."

"I personally think that King Ji will not do anything wrong." Yang Biao made a loud voice.

"I, what should I do if I lose my son?" asked the Empress Dowager Dong again.

Dong Jingxin understood: "The country is full of treacherous and slanderous people, and King Ji cannot refuse to blame him. He should 'finish the copper punishment'."

"General of the Cavalry, this is reasonable." The greedy thought flashed in the eyes of the Taihuang Empress Dowager Dong: "Only you should punish the copper to be punished."

"This..." When he said the critical point, Dong Chong couldn't help but feel like a deer: "How about 100 million thistle money?"

"Hmph!" Empress Dowager Dong sneered: "What a small weapon for General Cavalry."

"According to the Emperor's will, how much should I punish the copper?" Dong Chong asked hurriedly.

"What should I get a penalty of one billion...?" After the Taihuang Empress Dowager Dong and Lion spoke loudly, they couldn't help feeling worried.

"This..." Dong Chong did not dare to answer.

"I think it's feasible." Unexpectedly, Yang Biao, the youngest mansion of Yongle, spoke first: "As the Emperor said, there are traitors in the country, and the king of the country cannot refuse to blame him. Although King Ji did not carry it, he was also involved in the crime of being convicted (note ①). Han law: 'The princes are guilty, and the prime minister of Fu (principal of the country) does not report the report, and he is an A party (a party).' It can be an analogy."

The Empress Dowager Dong understood: "In other words, if the country is guilty, the king will be punished and the tyrants will not be a party."

"The Emperor is clear to see." Yang Biao bowed again. This Han rule is concise and concise: King Ji is not a member of the party.

If it were not for the accomplice of the Grand Master of God who could convict King Ji, the sentencing would be too much lighter. All of them could be fined copper for punishment.

With the support of Han Dynasty, Empress Dowager Dong should be able to let go of his knots and calm down his mood. Then he said to Yang Biao: "If you have time to go to Ergucheng for Shaofu. We will discuss the five punishments with the right chief Jia Xu."

"Affect the order." Yang Biao leaned on the ground to receive the order.

Five penalties refer to five regulations that can be fined for crimes. In ancient times, copper was the most expensive, so fines were fines. "Mandarin·Qiyu": "Minor sins (zhé) are divided into gold."

According to the "Book of Lu Xing", the ink punishment can be changed to three kilograms of copper, the slashing punishment can be changed to six kilograms of copper, fifteen kilograms of copper, eighteen kilograms of copper, and thirty kilograms of copper for death.

Although the fines of the Han Dynasty were recorded in the law, they were by no means set in ancient times, and these small amounts were not specified.

Many, depending on the situation and the person.

The Empress Dowager Dong offered a price of one billion yuan. This shows that this matter is by no means a "small crime".

Rather than saying that King Ji punished Tong to exempt him from punishment, it would be better to say that after the Taihuang Empress Dowager Dong received one billion yuan, he could eliminate the hatred in his heart. He did not punish King Ji, but only to relieve himself.

After all, the late emperor, beautiful Wang, and close relatives of the Taihuang Empress Dowager Dong were all killed due to the Right State Order.

Yang Biao has not yet left Yongle Palace. The news of the punishment of bronze and exemption from punishment has been spread to Empress Dowager He of the Western Palace.
