Daming King of Punishment

Page 734

Song Wuya frowned and shook his head: "I don't know."

Song Wuya now figured it out. Facing Duke Ding, who was a scheming guy, he couldn't make a wrong step. As long as he made a wrong step, today's matter would probably come to fruition.Now, what he wants is to respond to all changes with the same.If he didn't admit that he knew about it, Duke Ding would explain it himself.

Sure enough, Duke Ding was startled for a moment, and then he said: "Master Song is really a nobleman who forgets things! Didn't he dig left and right around my cemetery yesterday, do you want to divert water from the river?"

"Oh?" After Dingguogong said this, Song Wuya suddenly realized: "So what Dingguogong said was that the subordinate officials were ordered by the sage to dig irrigation canals for the people outside the city in the name of the sage! This incident has ruined the geomantic omen of your cemetery, and I really don’t know about it. After all, I’m a scholar, and I don’t know much about Feng Shuixuan. Now I have offended you, and I will apologize to Duke Ding.”

Song Wuya changed his usual rigid style, and even took the initiative to admit to Dingguo that he was wrong.

Not to mention the officials around here, even the emperor was puzzled, thinking that this is not Song Wuya's style at all.

And the surrounding officials were even more puzzled that Song Wuya would submit in such a way.But they quickly figured it out, this matter must be because of the previous incident, after all the emperor showed that he wanted to follow Ding Guogong's wishes, so Song Wuya didn't dare to touch this bad luck.

Chapter 869

?869 chapters of his way

Song Wuya suddenly admitted his mistake, Duke Ding looked at him indifferently and said, "Your Majesty, since Master Song now knows that he has done something wrong, please issue an order to cancel the irrigation canal."

As soon as Dingguogong said this, the officials around who were eager to see Song Wuya lose face immediately responded: "Dingguogong is the founding elder of the country. In comparison, Ding Guogong can be said to be a noble character. But now that Ding Guogong is in his prime, there is only such a small request, the Holy One should not make him feel cold!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

For a moment, the officials who spoke for Ding Guogong shouted in unison.

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor was in a dilemma.

He thought for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Song Wuya, and he immediately asked: "Song Aiqing, you just admitted to Dingguo that you were wrong. But when all the officials agreed, why didn't you speak? Did you Do you think this is inappropriate?"

"Reporting to the Holy Majesty, I agree with this matter, but there is one thing that I feel is inappropriate." Song Wuya nodded in agreement, and at the same time questioned.

Hearing that Song Wuya also agreed with this matter, the emperor also sighed helplessly, but suddenly Song Wuya changed the subject, making the emperor understand in his heart that Song Wuya's words must have a bright future.

Immediately, the emperor continued to ask: "Is there something wrong? Let me hear it, what is wrong?"

"Ding Guogong said just now that the feng shui of this cemetery cannot be destroyed. I just dug a few irrigation canals without knowing it, and then destroyed the feng shui of the cemetery. If the canals in the cemetery destroy the feng shui, wouldn't the surrounding people cultivate the cemetery and destroy the feng shui even more?"

As soon as the words came out, the emperor frowned slightly, but he understood in the blink of an eye.

Immediately, the emperor nodded in agreement and said: "Song Aiqing is right in thinking, it seems that the common people can't farm here."

The emperor sighed with emotion, hesitation appeared on his face, and he turned to Duke Ding.

"Ding Guogong, it seems that the people around here, I will find a way to expel them for you."

As soon as the emperor said these words, all the officials around him understood the meaning of these words.And the calm expression on Duke Ding's face also changed.

Obviously, this is a serious statement. If all the people around here are moved because of his cemetery alone, it would be unreasonable.

"Your Majesty, the people around the cemetery do not affect the geomantic pattern. The geomantic omen you do is based on air and water. The opening of the irrigation canal will destroy the geomantic pattern originally brought by the river. The people's farming does not destroy the river, it does not affect it. Feng Shui, so what the Holy Majesty is worried about does not exist."

"So that's it." The emperor nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Song Wuya and said, "Then Song Aiqing, you heard it too, so let's cancel the irrigation canal."

Hearing this, Song Wuya immediately said: "The water is fine, what about the air? The capital is so huge, does it block the air in the Dingguo Cemetery? Or else the capital should be demolished as well. Firstly, it happens to be able to bring the people to migrate across the city, and this not only preserves the feng shui of the Dingguo Cemetery, but also keeps it from being disturbed in the future. Your Majesty, what do you think of this?"

This matter made Song Wuya talk more and more, even Duke Ding couldn't sit still.These words were clearly ridiculing him, how could he not hear it.But after all, it was because of him at this time, and Song Wuya's words were nothing more than words that ran against him.

The emperor immediately frowned when he heard this: "Song Aiqing, what are you talking about? How can you move the whole city because of your own selfishness? The preserved fruit didn't have much money in the first place, so the court might want me to hand it over to you." It's annoying."

"Your Majesty, Ding Guogong is a veteran minister of the country. You should agree to such a small request." Song Wuya saw that the emperor followed his will, and he knew in his heart that the emperor clearly understood what he meant. Dang even began to sneer again: "And just now Duke Ding said this little request, and you agreed to it. These people lived outside the city for generations, and that piece of land was their source of income for generations, and it was also handed over to the court. The source of taxes. With this irrigation canal, it will be more convenient for them to farm, and the harvest will naturally be better. Presumably, in addition to paying taxes every year, they will be richer. Then life will naturally be better, and they live Well, I naturally feel that the court is well. Only when the court is well can the country last forever!"

Song Wuya directly mentioned a small matter to a major national event, which can be said to be a bit serious.

Zhu Yuanlong was on the sidelines, but he couldn't listen anymore: "Master Song, what you said is a bit serious, right? Since you said it, those people have lived here for generations, so they didn't have irrigation canals in the past, didn't they still live? Pay taxes to the court? I didn’t see them all die! How come they can’t survive now that Dingguo has elected a target?”

"My lord, I didn't say that they couldn't survive anymore. I just said that this would make them live better. Coefficient of dynasties and dynasties, how many Wang Chao perished because of the peasant uprising. Youdao It is the officials who force the people to rebel, and the people have to rebel. If those dynasties that have perished, the common people have a monthly salary of several hundred taels to Master Zhu and everyone above the court, do you think those dynasties can still perish? ?If the common people can be buried wherever they want after death, just like Ding Guogong, after having such rights, do you think they will still be dissatisfied with the court every day? "

After Zhu Yuanlong just said these few words, Song Wuya refuted them one by one.And Song Wuya even asked this sentence of question, which made Zhu Yuanlong unable to answer.

Ding Guogong over there, his expression is extremely ugly at the moment.

I don't know what he thinks in his heart, whether he thinks that this time he will fulfill his wish smoothly like last time.

"Your Majesty, I've said so much, and I just said it casually." After Song Wuya finished speaking, he didn't wait for the officials to react.Then he looked up at the emperor and said, "I'll go back and lead people to fill up the irrigation canal, and then tell the people. He said that the Holy Majesty remembered the achievements of Duke Dingguo in the past, and didn't want to destroy the feng shui around his purpose, so he ordered the construction of the irrigation canal to stop."

"Song Aiqing, if you say that, how will the people treat me?" The emperor was really anxious when he heard this.

After all, no one in this world would want to smear his face.

And Ding Guogong also frowned and said: "Master Song is blackmailing His Majesty, right? So discrediting His Majesty, what is your intention?"

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, if you want people not to know unless you do nothing yourself, you can't cover fire with paper. When the irrigation canal was dug earlier, the minister had already shown off to the people. This move is the kindness of the Holy One. At that time, the people Immediately knelt down and thanked the Holy Grace. Now that the irrigation canal is not dug, it is natural to give an explanation to the people! If I can take this matter, I will definitely be able to do so. But I have already explained that this matter is the Holy Grace, you let How should I explain it? I can’t say that it was the minister who disobeyed the holy orders and ordered to stop the construction of the irrigation canal, right? If that’s the case, the Holy Majesty can only execute the minister to death. Otherwise, this statement cannot be justified.”

Song Wuya had already prepared this speech, and after hearing this, the emperor showed embarrassment, obviously he was very embarrassed about this matter.

And Ding Guogong's face was not looking good, he was right, Song Wuya said this to threaten the emperor.The purpose is to let Duke Ding know that the emperor has been forced to the cliff by Song Wuya, if he continues, the emperor will have to bear the infamy himself.But the emperor didn't do anything wrong, so he naturally didn't want to be scolded by the people behind his back.

"Song Aiqing, I can see your merits, how could you be executed so easily?" the emperor immediately said with a frown.And he looked at the officials in court and asked: "My dear friends, do you know if there is any good way to bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion?"

"My Majesty, after all, there are only a bunch of ignorant people outside the city, and they must not dare to gossip behind their backs. You don't have to worry, Your Majesty, stopping the construction of irrigation canals will definitely not have any impact on your Majesty's reputation." A minister went up immediately I said this before.

These words are really not pleasant, the emperor is obviously unwilling to do such a thing now, but he wants to let the emperor do it, isn't it just looking for trouble?

Sure enough, after the emperor heard this, he was immediately annoyed.

"What's your name? They're scolding me, not you! Are you trying to make me a fool in the eyes of the people?"

The emperor was furious, and the minister immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty.And the other ministers present did not dare to say anything, who knew what they said wrong and then angered the emperor.

Seeing that everyone had nothing to say, the emperor turned his attention to Ding Guogong: "Ding Guogong, do you always have a good plan for reconciliation?"

"Now it seems that the old minister can only choose another cemetery for burial!" Duke Ding knew that this was all he could say about this issue.

"This..." The emperor was slightly startled when he heard this, and frowned, "This is a treasure land of geomantic omen that I found with great difficulty. Duke Ding gave up when he said he would give up?"

Isn't this something obvious?So what if Duke Ding doesn't give up?Can the emperor still bear the infamy of a faint king?

"The old minister doesn't want the Holy Majesty to bear the people's infamy because of the old minister's affairs, so that's what I have to do." Duke Ding also said helplessly.

Naturally, this was what the emperor wanted to hear, and he immediately said happily: "Duke Ding is indeed the hero who founded our dynasty, and he understands righteousness so well, he is enough to be a model for all officials!"

The emperor was happy, but Duke Ding was not.Today's matter did not go as he expected.

Seeing the emperor talking happily, all the officials agreed one after another.
