There was a harsh cicada cries in my ears, and then a slightly cool breeze blew into the open window, which felt very comfortable.

Xiao Yao slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at the furniture in the room, his eyes full of confusion, then closed his eyes again, and opened them again, but the scenery in his sight did not change at all.

I reached out and pinched my arm, and it felt like it was just one word, it hurts!

Looking at the sun outside the window, it should be around 8 o'clock in the morning.

According to the memory left by this body, the country he currently lives in is called the Tianming Dynasty. It is July 22, the 12th year of Shenglong, and the location is the Song Palace in the capital.

And his body is the emperor's son, Zhu Ruisheng, who was named King of Song!

However, before traveling to this world, Xiao Yao was in his forties and was a mature and charming young man, while Zhu Ruisheng was only sixteen years old and had not been married yet.

The start seemed to be very good, the starting point was not an average high, the royal prince!

But he didn't know that time travel brought more than benefits, but also trouble!

At this moment, in the Huangji Gate Hall of the Forbidden City, a fierce impeachment was underway because of the former dead ghost.

The cause of the incident is also very simple. Zhu Ruisheng, the former dead ghost, took his guards out of the city to play the day before yesterday afternoon. He actually fell in love with a widow who went to the nunnery to burn incense and fulfill his wishes, and then sent someone to snatch into the royal palace.

But when the guards were escorting the carriage into the city, they were discovered by the Censor of the Censorate and followed the palace. As soon as the groom who was driving the carriage was bombed out, they were taken to the Military and Masjid's Office to ask about it. The matter was immediately exposed.

The censors in the Censorate and the Sixth Department of the Censorate seized Zhu Ruisheng's tail, and after careful planning, they all went out to impeach during the morning court this morning.

Everyone knows that the Forbidden City has three halls, the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Zhonghe, and the Hall of Baohe. Most people think that the emperor is in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which is completely wrong.

The place where the emperor went to court was at Huangji Gate, which was called the Imperial Gate and the meeting was held in the Ganqing Palace, which was the palace where the emperor lived.

"Your Majesty, I have received a report from the censor of the city. His Highness Song went out to the city to have fun the afternoon before yesterday and actually snatched a woman who went out to the nunnery to burn incense, a carriage and a maid back to the mansion!"

"After verified by the Censorate, the woman's father Liu Hanzhang was a juren in the third year of Shenglong. Her husband's family was the Tian Xueyan family, the former head of the Qing Lishu Department of the Ministry of Rites!"

"Since Tian Xueyan's eldest son passed away, Tian Liu has been determined to keep his integrity and rarely goes out. This time, he only went out for Mrs. Tian to fulfill his wish."

"His Highness of the King of Song actually robbed the wise wife. This not only violates the laws of the court, but also a blatant violation of the Taizu Emperor's Holy Tribute. I would like to ask Your Majesty to severely punish Your Highness of Song!" Zhou Xia, the left censor of the Censorate, left the squad and knelt down to report after the state affairs were handled.

There was a sudden rumbling of discussion in the court, and most of the officials looked angry and were extremely contemptuous and indignant at the behavior of King Zhu Ruisheng of Song.

The Tianming Dynasty governed the world with filial piety and benevolence, and used Neo-Confucianism as its core idea of ​​governance. Staying upright is what Neo-Confucianism advocates, and it manifests itself as being a small matter of starvation and losing the morale!

King Song actually robbed the scholar's wannabe or the widow who was determined to keep his integrity back home. This action not only humiliated the royal reputation, but also violated the ancestral system and trampled on Neo-Confucianism ideas. This is intolerable!

"Zhou Qing, if King Song really robbed the wise wife, I will naturally not protect him, but can there be someone in the Censorate? " Emperor Sheng Long, who is 49, asked with a gloomy face.

He is a very elegant middle-aged man, not tall, with long beards, and a slightly unhealthy blush.

As a father, he naturally knew Zhu Ruisheng's character, so he could definitely do this. Since the Censorate dared to impeach, it was definitely not a news report.

"Your Majesty, the Censor of the City followed him to the royal palace, and the coachman was driven out by the guards of the palace. The Censor of the City was taken directly to the Military Affairs Office for interrogation. The facts are conclusive!" Zhou Xia said.

Since there is someone who has proved it, the evidence is conclusive. Coupled with King Song’s usual style of conduct, the court suddenly became excited.

"Your Majesty, the wise wife is an act advocated by the court and an order from Emperor Taizu. As the royal prince, King Song took the lead in destroying the ancestral system and forcibly robbing the wise wife in the royal palace. This is a very disrespectful act!" The minister of the Criminal Department gave Sun Lian a lecture to the minister.

"Your Majesty, "The Poem of Child Prodigy" says that everything is inferior, but reading is high. Our Tianming Dynasty has always praised and treated scholars with courtesy. This is the basis for the court to govern the nine provinces and to benefit the people!"

"The family of Tian Liu's husband and mother are both gentry in the capital. The actions of the King of Song are undoubtedly a humiliation to scholars all over the world. Please ask your Majesty to judge!" Fan Lixian, the right censor of the Censorate, came out of the class and knelt down to participate.

"Your Majesty, the saint said that starving to death is a small matter of losing one's integrity, which shows that this is the standard of morality and ethics. King Song violated the teachings of the saints respected by our dynasty, and the plot is extremely bad!"

"Your Majesty should punish the King of Song severely and restore reputation for the court and the royal family!"

"The prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Please punish me severely..."

A dozen censors in the Censorate and the Six Censors rushed to attend the King of Song, with fierce and firm attitudes. They seemed to not deal with King of Song, and the morality of the Tianming Dynasty would collapse and the world would be in chaos.

"I understand. I will send someone to the Song Palace to conduct strict verification. If it is true, I will punish King Song severely and resign! " Emperor Shenglong said calmly.

The ancestral system of the dynasty stipulates that as long as the royal family members do not commit crimes such as rebellion, even if they kill and set fire, they can only be handed over to the clan's office for handling, and the court's judicial yamen has no right to deal with it.

"Emperor, since the censor of the city has confirmed the facts and the coachman of the Tian family testified, how can he send it to the clan's office for investigation? I ask Your Majesty to issue an order to severely punish the King of Song!" Zhou Xia refused to agree.

Among Emperor Shenglong's five sons, the other four were Confucian children taught by Hanlin Bachelors. Only the Song King Zhu Ruisheng was the type that made the censors most bored. He did not listen to the teachings of saints since he was a child, and he may not have touched books again after enlightenment.

Zhu Ruisheng beat the official in the capital, rode a horse and rushed around the streets, humiliated the civil servants in public and mocked Shilin, and ran around the capital with the royal guards all day long. This was the root of disaster in the eyes of civil servants.

The reason why I didn't deal with him before was that this guy made big mistakes and did not make small mistakes, and there was no evidence of sufficient strength, and the emperor was in a protective position, so he had no choice but to do anything to him.

Although the emperor expressed his intention to pursue the matter, everyone knew in his heart that this was just a response. He said it was a verification, but after searching, it would be left alone.

He finally caught Zhu Ruisheng's tail. If he didn't teach him a harsh lesson this time, the local scholastics would definitely be poisoned by him after he became a vassal in the future!

"Zhou Qing, even if the royal members make mistakes, they will be dealt with by the clan's office. This is the ancestral system of the Tianming Dynasty. Are you trying to violate the regulations of Emperor Taizu? You still don't retreat!" Emperor Shenglong was furious.

"I dare not obey orders. This matter is related to the dynasty's country and the foundation of the past generations. I ask Your Majesty to issue an order immediately!" Zhou Xia knelt down and kowtowed, not regressing.

He actually dared to resist the order in the court and refused to obey the order. Emperor Sheng Long's face suddenly turned pale. He felt that his emperor's authority had been provoked, so he wanted to remove Zhou Xia from his post and investigate.

"Your Majesty, I think the request of the Zuodu Censor is not inappropriate, I will discuss it!" said Sun Dongqing, the chief minister of the cabinet and the Minister of Rites, after leaving the rank.

"I commented on it! Your Majesty loves his son very much, but correcting the mistakes of King Song is also for his future. Please forgive me!" said Xu Shuo, the second assistant to the cabinet and the Minister of Revenue, and said.

Immediately afterwards, many officials from the imperial court cabinet and six ministries came out to express their support.

Everyone knows that the emperor has protected King Song again and again. If he has such a serious mistake, he will leave it alone, and something big will happen sooner or later!

"I'm sending an order to ask King Song Zhu Rui to ascend to the main hall to listen to the ginseng!" Emperor Sheng Long said helplessly.
