Chapter 13 Punishment
Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/
"Your Majesty, do you know what this means?" Weng Tongxi asked with his eyes narrowed.
Guan Xuqing shook his head.
"The meaning of this passage is to say that the principle of university lies in promoting human virtues, loving the interests of the people, and enabling people to reach the state of highest goodness." Weng Tongshu explained.
Guan Xuqing was very disgusted with learning these difficult and useless things, but unfortunately, people in this era learned this. There is no way, it is worth learning it with a bit of an hour.
"Master Weng, I want to get out and come back soon." Guan Xuqing said.
"Oh, the emperor must study hard so that he can govern the country well in the future." Weng Tongxiu said dissatisfied.
Reading this book can govern the country well? Then how did the Qing Dynasty perish? It was ridiculous, Guan Xuqing smiled secretly. But he still reached it very respectfully on the surface, "I understand."
As soon as I walked out of the study, I met Li Zhen who was blocking his way yesterday.
"I bow to the emperor." Li Zhen knelt down and said.
"Get up, why are you here?" Guan Xuqing said in confusion. At this time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs should be busy handling the funeral for the Queen Mother Dong.
"Thank you," Li Zhen stood up and continued, "Go back to the emperor, I will go to the throne department this morning to prepare for the burial of the Empress Dowager Dong. The general manager Li Lianying and the heads of each department came to find me and gave me a silver note of 50,000 taels."
"Oh? They are so bold? They dare to play tricks at the funeral of Queen Mother Dong?" Guan Xuqing said in surprise.
"Prince, please see," Li Zhen said as he took out a list of expenses, "This is recorded by General Manager Li, the burial guards, entourage guards, monks, lamas, etc. The actual expenditure was only 20,000 taels, and this item alone embezzled as much as 80,000 taels. The rest of the matter cannot be calculated. According to the emperor's orders, the persons delivered during the expenses have also been registered. I received 50,000 taels of silver and handed over it to the emperor as much as possible. Please order the emperor to collect it." Li Zhenshuang handed over a silver note.
Guan Xuqing took it and saw that it was indeed a long silver note. There were 50,000 taels on it, and Guan Xuqing was still the first.
The Zero-level master http://www.77nt/19181/ saw the silver notes of the Qing Dynasty. It said Dehong Money House, a private money house in the capital. The branches are spread all over the country and were the largest money house in the Qing Dynasty at that time.
"Okay, you did a good job. Go back and be your best friend. From now on, everyone will accept any bribes, but they will be registered and handed over as much as possible." Guan Xuqing said.
"Zha, I'm leaving." Li Zhen knelt on the ground again.
Guan Xuqing was in a good mood after getting the money. Suddenly, he thought that he had promised Dong Liang to give him money today, so he immediately ran to the back garden. He thought that he should have been waiting for him there.
As soon as he ran halfway, he met Cixi and Li Lianying slowly coming. Guan Xuqing wanted to hide and was no longer anxious, so he hurriedly hid the silver bill.
"My son, please pay me a favor to my dad." Guan Xuqing lay on the ground.
"Why are you here at this time? Haven't you been studying?" Cixi asked sternly.
Guan Xuqing hurriedly lied: "When my son saw a colorful butterfly flying over, he chased me." It is better to pretend to be naughty than to not study than to be aware of Cixi's private relationship with foreign ministers and organize an army.
"Hmph, the emperor is so playful, not studying or practicing martial arts, how can he govern the world and manage the country? You are punished to stand here until dark and think about where you were wrong?" Cixi always had a strange feeling about Guan Xuqing, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. It is also good to punish him to give him a long memory.
"Yes" Guan Xuqing stood up and saw Li Lianying looking gloating. He wished he could kill these two people immediately. Unfortunately, the time had not come, so he had to endure it.
Seeing the group of Cixi walking away slowly, Guan Xuqing simply sat down on the steps next to him. Looking at the sky, he was thinking about how to solve Cixi.
"Your Majesty, why are you here? Master Weng is looking for you?" Cui Xi ran over.
"Dad, I'm punished me for being here until dark." Guan Xuqing looked up at the sky, as if saying to himself.
"What mistake did the emperor make? The empress dowager wants to punish the emperor." Cuixi asked in surprise.
"Maybe it's because I'm not happy, God knows." Guan Xuqing turned his head and smiled at his nanny.
"Then I'll report back to Master Weng." Cuixi said anxiously.
"Yeah, go." Guan Xuqing replied.
Suddenly, dark clouds were covered with rain and it started to rain. Guan Xuqing hurriedly hid in a pavilion. At this moment, Li Lianying came over with two eunuchs.
"Emperor, the Queen Mother asked you to stand until dark, why are you sitting here?" Li Lianying asked with a slight smile.
"It's not raining anymore, I'm coming in to hide from the rain." Guan Xuqing replied with a certainty.
"Oh, my emperor. You must not ignore the words of the Empress Dowager. That is to resist the order." Li Lianying said in panic.
"Fuck, do you want me to get wet from the rain?" Guan Xuqingzhen got angry and roared at Li Lianying.
"Come on, Mr. Lafayette ordered the emperor to stand until dark and reflect on his mistakes. He took the emperor out." Li Lianying ignored Guan Xuqing.
"Zha" the two eunuchs replied.
"Do you want to rebel? Ah!" Although Guan Xuqing was strong in his previous life, how could he be more stubborn than two eunuchs who are only four years old?
He was carried by two eunuchs one by one to the heavy rain, and helped him stand in the rain, preventing him from moving.
"You let me go, you, you want to rebel." Guan Xuqing shouted desperately.
"Don't keep the emperor in his heart if he is angry. It will be better if he sings it. The emperor sings it." A eunuch shouted.
"Yes, the emperor is quite angry. Let's give the emperor a fire." Another eunuch winked, and the two of them lifted Guan Xuqing up and turned around.
