Chapter 169 Daqinglong Temple
Daqinglong Temple is a royal temple, and court officials can enter, but ordinary people are not allowed to enter. In early spring, royal members often come to the temple to incense and pray for blessings. Therefore, when the King of Ling arrives at Daqinglong Temple, the abbot is familiar with the reception.
After completing the established process, King Ling planned to visit the scenery of the temple by himself, so he sent the abbot away and took only two guards to walk deeper into the temple.
The most beautiful place of Daqinglong Temple is Luoyingtai. This is not a single high platform, but a pavilion with octagonal eaves is built on a platform, with octagonal eaves, and the atmosphere is endless. The buildings of Luoyingtai are hidden among the heavy cherry blossoms. The reason why the name "Luyingtai" comes from these lush cherry blossoms. Once the season comes, the cherry blossoms are blowing in the wind, and pink petals are swelling in the air. Unfortunately, the cherry blossoms have not yet bloomed on this day.
King Ling walked under Luoying's stage and took a deep breath of cold air, closed his eyes and began to enjoy the tranquility and peace in the temple.
A guard called softly behind him, "Your Highness?"
King Ling waved his arm and asked the guard to retreat. Then he walked out of the cherry blossom bushes. He stepped on the lawn and walked to King Yu, and was about to kneel down to salute. King Ling's rare wise and wise man came back, and he helped the person up with both hands, took his hand and walked to a big rock under the tree.
"Your Highness King Ling, Han is here today to do his wife's brother-in-law."
"Commander Han, I already know about your affairs. When the incident happened, the Japanese Palace was in Dali Temple. The incident had been investigated clearly by Jingzhao Yin and Dali Temple. Indeed, the commander's wife and brother killed people, and they killed two people and physical evidence, and there was no room for maneuver."
"His Highness Ling, your wife's brother-in-law should have paid for his life to kill him! Han dared not have any objection to this."
"Then what the commander is worried about is his future?"
Han Ruxun lowered his head and dared not look in the eyes of King Ling. His thoughts were still not good.
"The dagger was given by the father emperor. No matter what the reason is, the gift given by the emperor was given at will and became a murder weapon. According to the father emperor's temper, the title of commander is basically to be replaced!"
"I would like to ask His Highness the King of Ling to give you a clear path!"
Han Ruxun knelt on his knees in front of King Ling. This time, King Ling didn't plan to continue to play the role of being a virtuous person. He brushed off the fallen leaves on his clothes and said to Han Ruxun: "The murder can be big or small, and any judgment for killing must be approved by the father. Now this matter is still within the controllable range. It is not impossible to take back the dagger and erase this content in the case file."
"I would like to leave a way out for life!"
Han Ruxun buried his head lower, and King Ling enjoyed the feeling of others crawling at his feet. He looked at it with interest for a while before he slowly spoke, "Commander Han has been guarding the palace for so many years, and he has worked hard without any credit. In theory, the matter of his wife's brother-in-law should not be involved in Commander Han's head. I can't stand it. Commander Han was removed from his official position. Today I asked you to discuss this matter. As for this matter, I plan to make this matter smaller and to save the official position of Commander Han, but my wife's brother's life cannot be saved!"
"My wife is a gangster, and she has no other use except to bring endless trouble to the family. There is no benefit to the Yu family and Yu country. Death is also a kind of relief for him."
"Since Commander Han is so decisive, I have no scruples."
"Han kowtowed to His Highness King Ling. Han is unforgettable to remember His Highness's great kindness!" As he said that, Han Ruxun planned to kowtow, and his head hit the grass and made a muffled groan. Except for King Ling, no one else could hear it.
After Han Ruxun kowtowed for a while, King Ling finally stopped him. He explained to himself: "Commander Han is not the ruthless man in my palace, but someone needs to bear the consequences for everything. His wife's brother-in-law naturally cannot escape the sanctions of the law, but Commander Han also bears the responsibility for improper discipline. The news just now was considered a punishment."
"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness," Han Ruxun has been incredibly bad for the past three days. He has no energy when he enters the palace to work. When he returns home, he is helpless in facing his wife's crying. When he thinks that his official position is likely to be unsecured, he can't eat or sleep. His face turns yellow in just three days.
It's just three days, it's tantamount to three years for Han Ruxun! He has no family background to rely on, and he has relied on his own efforts along the way. From an ordinary soldier to a commander of the Imperial Guard, he spent twelve years, turning from a young man to a middle-aged man. He can no longer stand the failure again and start over. He no longer has so much time and energy.
King Ling took out the dagger from his arms and handed it back to Han Ruxun. He trembled and stretched out his hand to take the dagger, looking at King Ling in disbelief. After all, he was just talking nonsense before, but now he has gotten back the most critical dagger, which is that he can really get rid of his own guilt.
"His Royal Highness?"
"Since I promise to help you, I will do my best. This dagger is the most critical physical evidence in this case. Without it, even if the father investigates it, he will at most scold you for being a little bit strict in discipline. Commander Han, you must hide the things given to you in the future!"
"Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you!"
Han Ruxun could only keep kowtowing and thanking him. Apart from that, he had no other way to express his gratitude.
"It's getting late, Commander Han, you can go back first."
"Yes, Han will leave now. Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness,"
Han Ruxun hid the dagger in his arms and then slowly retreated out of the cherry blossom forest.
Eunuch Chen, who had been standing on Luoying's platform and witnessing everything, had been standing for a long time. Shen Qianji, who was beside him, whispered: "I didn't expect that Commander Han is also His Highness Ling Wang."
"Commander Han has been alone for many years and has never had close contact with any princes and ministers. It seems that the old slave underestimated him."
"Eunuch Chen, you have always been in the palace, so it is normal for you to not know these things about the outer court. No matter what Commander Han Commander Tongling King said, in my opinion, it is very likely that he agreed to Your Highness's request."
"Oh? Then it's time for me to go down and meet His Highness Prince Ling."
"That's right, that's right, after all, Eunuch Chen has been waiting for a long time. But Eunuch Chen, I'm just a messenger, so Mr. Shen won't accompany Eunuch Chen."
"Mr. Shen is so humble. If it weren't for the confidant of King Ling, how could you take your old slave into the Great Qinglong Temple?"
Faced with Eunuch Chen's doubts, Shen Qianji did not intend to explain at all, but just smiled. Eunuch Chen did not intend to continue wasting time here, so he went downstairs to meet the King of Ling himself.
"I'll see His Highness the King of Tomb!"
Seeing Eunuch Chen walking to him, King Ling stood up and helped Eunuch Chen up, and asked with concern: "When did you come?"
"I just arrived, too."
"That's good, that's good! I just visited Luoyingtai."
"I was relieved. I was still worried about letting Your Highness wait for a long time on the road!"
"Eunuch Chen is a very hardworking man in charge of the imperial guards. Even if I wait for a while, I should do it. Eunuch Chen, don't mind that I have chosen such a place. I have nowhere to sit or have a banquet to entertain."
"Your Highness's words are really a slap in my old slave! Please tell me what your highness has to give me, I will do my best!"
"Okay, I will have the courage to say this to my father-in-law! This is yours and Eunuch Cui in the palace. Eunuch Zhang is the most pleased by my father."
"The old slave dare not compare with Eunuch Cui and Eunuch Zhang. After all, they are the personal eunuchs of the emperor. The old slave is just helping to manage the imperial guards. We are not on the same level."
"Brother-in-law, you are also an old man in the palace. My father is getting older and older. The Eastern Palace is still empty. Now the enemy's large-scale invasion is a great disadvantage to the country!"
"What Your Highness said is that the position of the crown prince is not something that our slaves can say nonsense." Eunuch Chen glanced at King Ling and continued: "But Your Highness's worries are right. The emperor is old and the crown prince should not be kept hanging in the air."
"Eunuch Chen, we are all worried about our country. Daliang is the country of my Xiao family. I can't bear to watch it be destroyed by the barbarians. Besides, Eunuch Cui has been with his father for so many years. They have been worried about the country and the world. It's time to enjoy their old age."
When he heard this, Eunuch Chen immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness is loyal to the emperor and love your father, which is my blessing! I should serve you as a servant and assist Your Highness!"
King Ling was satisfied, so he helped Eunuch Chen up and comforted him: "My father-in-law has worked so hard that he has been going through the palace all the way. Go back to the palace earlier and don't let his father worry."
"Yes, the old slave takes his leave!"
