AWB Chapter 104 Are you trying to exhaust me to death?
Chapter 104 Are you trying to exhaust me to death?
King Yuanning's words were rude but extremely sharp.
The courtiers had never seen this side of the prince.
Seeing that if things go on like this, it is really going to be difficult to end the trouble, the minister of Honglu Temple opened his mouth and said softly: "My lord, even though the king of Funan once plundered your majesty, that matter has passed, not to mention, the king promised to give me Dayao After the ten-year offering, your anger should also dissipate."
In a word, he attributed the cause and effect of the hostility to the prince's sincerity to the emperor, which, I have to say, is very clever.
Unexpectedly, neither Tu Ajia nor King Yuanning appreciated it.
Tu Ajia said coldly: "Although I, Funan, have congratulated Dayao for ten years, I am still the master of Funan. I have been to Dayao for several days, and the monarch of the previous country has not seen him. It is inconsistent with reason. Is it really like the rumors outside? Do you want to make the holy majesty empty and arbitrarily judge the court?"
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze into ice.
Such rumors have been around since the time when King Yuanning temporarily took over the post of Ziwei Ling; when he drank Hejin wine with the emperor, it was widely spread; a few days before Tu Ajia and his party went to the capital, it suddenly spread all over the city.
A few days after Tu Ajia came to Dayao, she was left to hang out in the daylight for a few days. Of course, she couldn't be idle in the post house every day, just strolling in the market to hear such rumors.
Seeing that King Yuanning didn't speak, Tu Ajia felt that the prince had been picked out by her for a plan. He couldn't lose his momentum at this time, and he had to take advantage of the victory to pursue him: "If the military power is mobilized, it is indeed not up to the prince to make the decision. Please do it urgently." Let His Majesty make a decision first, and then rest in peace."
King Yuanning looked at Tu Ajia expressionlessly, and said quietly: "Ah Jing needs to rest and cannot be disturbed. As a king, if you disturb the court of the upper kingdom again, this king will invite the warriors in charge of the palace You send it back to the posthouse."
The voice fell, and the hall returned to silence.
The official book of the Ministry of Rites had a very long look, whispered a few words in front of Tu Ajia, then turned to King Yuanning, and said: "Your Majesty's dragon body is not in good condition, and I still need the prince to accompany the sick, I will send King Funan and the envoys back to the post first. Let's rest."
King Yuanning didn't speak, but only made a gesture of invitation, and Tu Ajia even turned his head and left, not even caring about etiquette.
At this moment, there was no other foreigner in the Zhaixing Pavilion, and King Yuanning said indifferently: "Everyone, do you also think that this king wants to control the government?"
After finishing speaking, his eyes swept across the faces of the ministers one by one.
Rarely cold.
Some people don't want to cause trouble, they are submissive, and they don't even dare to look at him.
As far as Dayao is concerned, in Bai Jing's generation, he was indeed trampled by his predecessors to the point of withering.All the ministers know that if the emperor really kicks his legs and closes his eyes one day, he will have no heirs and no brothers, and the closest relationship will be the son of King Rui. Located in King Yuanning, although the imperial edict was later burned by the prince, I am afraid that the position of this king with a different surname in the emperor's heart is much higher than that of the brothers of King Rui.
Now, he ordered Yuanning King to supervise the country, and his intention could not be more obvious.
Some people may ask, if the prince wanted imperial power, why did he burn the edict in the first place?
Naturally someone will answer, people will always change, maybe he didn't want it back then, but now he regrets it...
What's more, the lord has a very rare evil spirit seeping out of him today, which makes people feel that he is uncertain.
It seems that Bai Jing has possessed a body.
At this time, Chu Yanchuan suddenly saluted and came out, saying: "My lord, I have something to say."
As he said that, he didn't wait for Yuanning King to agree, so he continued: "I think that I have some old friends with the prince, and I have a word of advice to the prince. Whether the prince controls the government, you just have to have a clear conscience, but no matter what, it is hard to stop the people. Discussion, it is difficult to make the world's long mouths like the words of one person."
Whether these words are good or not needs to be listened to dialectically, but King Yuanning's face was as dark as a cloudy sky before a summer rainstorm.
The prince's appearance is clear and handsome, and his outline is clear and distinct. Therefore, when the spring breeze is peaceful and gentle, it makes people feel elegant and bright, but when it is gloomy, it makes people feel a kind of determination that they can kill with a sword if they disagree with each other.
Standing beside Chu Yanchuan was Chen Xingning. He reached out and grabbed Chu Yanchuan's sleeve, and winked at him.
In the end, I don’t know why Chu Yanchuan developed a stubbornness. With a slight struggle, the sleeves were thrown off from Chen Xingning’s fingertips. To attract people's tongue, it should be done in business. Since you can't be the master, you should ask your majesty to show your majesty the matter of Funan immediately. It is not the best policy for the prince to delay blindly. The prince has the heavy responsibility of supervising the country. Be a doctor looking after His Majesty's body."
As soon as this remark came out, it became an outright accusation.
Extremely objective and polite, he accused Yuanning Wang of filling his position.
Yuan Ning Wang said: "Master Chu, what you mean is that this king is short-sighted because he puts his majesty's dragon body as the most important thing?"
Chu Yanchuan didn't say yes or no, and said seriously: "Your Majesty once said in Funan that 'Dayao will never be threatened by others'...how could he be so ignorant as the prince imagined."
Before King Yuanning could speak, he heard a person on the steps of the Zhaixing Pavilion say lightly: "Why, since I let the prince supervise the country, I let him have the final say. It was I who said that I would rest for a few days. Today I will start from just now." , and the commotion is so non-stop, Master Chu said that I don’t know the general idea? Are you trying to exhaust me to death?”
All the ministers turned their heads and saw the emperor standing at the top of the steps.
In late autumn, he had already put on a brocade cloak with windy fur. The black cloak was tightly wrapped in the wind, and a circle of white hair was wrapped around the neckline, which swayed in the wind, making the emperor's face extremely pale.
His face was bleak, and his expression was even more bleak.
All the ministers paid homage, walked slowly into the hall during the day, and said lightly, "Get up," while speaking, stopped in front of Chu Yanchuan, "You are relying on your young friendship with me to demean the current prince like this!" , Guess what you want? Why, I have cherished my body for two days, is it just a stupid king who doesn't know the general idea?"
Chu Yanchuan's expression was full of surprise, and he didn't know whether he felt wronged or wrongly concluded that the emperor would not blame him.
Seeing that he was still in the same place, Bai Tian continued: "According to the law, what crime should one be guilty of belittling the superior and speculating on the superior?"
No one answered.
Bai Zhou pointed to Tao Di, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, and said, "Say it."
Tao Di muttered in his heart that I would be the villain, and replied with a low eyebrow: "Your Majesty, according to the law, you should stay in office at the end of the court battle, or be dismissed from office."
"Then go home, because of your personal relationship with me, I will avoid the humiliation of public court battles, and I will give you a thousand taels of travel expenses and An Jiayin," he said, and he glanced at Chu Guan, "What's more, General Chu I am the pillar of the great Yao, even if you stay at home for the rest of your life, you will not have to worry about food and drink."
Chu Yanchuan's face was full of disbelief, his father Chu Guan was like a general, calm, as if the emperor didn't deal with his son.
Bai Tian's eyes scanned the group of officials for a week. There were still a few who wanted to ask for mercy, but his eyes brushed them coldly, and immediately shrank their necks and dared not speak.
Unexpectedly, the emperor's stubborn and stubborn aura seems to be extremely exhausting. He had just been fierce for a while, but when he was hit by the wind, he coughed. The more he wanted to stop, the more uncontrollable he was, and he held his last breath in his heart. Dizzy, staggered, was about to fall, but was supported by Wang Ye and Bu Ge.
He slowed down for a while, then broke free from the support of the two, and said in a deep voice: "Today's matter, if I know that someone is gossiping, no matter what position they are in, they will all fight in public."
After saying that, he turned around and left, shaking his cloak.
But I don't know who acted boldly, and the news of Chu Yanchuan's dismissal spread in the streets within a few days.Because of this, King Yuanning was confirmed to be relying on the emperor's favor and arbitrarily ruling the court. What's more, the faint king didn't care about it, and the two of them seemed to be sitting together.
Chu Yanchuan was depressed and uneasy, said goodbye to his father, and went on a trip.
The autumn wind is bleak, sending away those who are bleak and unsuccessful.
The weather is getting colder, the leaves on the branches are all yellow, and when the whirlwind hits, they will fall one after another.
Chen Xingning met the saint this day and brought a piece of news——Bai Yuan met Princess Duanshu very secretly.
After listening to Bai Zhou, he seemed to have expected it, and asked, "What happened to Ruikang County King?"
Chen Xingning said, "Not yet."
Bai Tian nodded and said: "Pass on my secret order, if he enters the capital without reporting like King Rui, he will be accused of treason according to the law."
Chen Xingning bowed to accept the order.
"Xing Ning..." Bai Tian restrained the emperor's murderous aura, and motioned Chen Xing Ning to sit down, "Are you satisfied with your current position?"
Chen Xingning was taken aback by Bai Tian's question. Recently, the emperor and the prince were acting strangely. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the two people's gourds, Chen Xingning firmly believed that these two people were always the same.
Even about Chu Yanchuan, Chen Xingning didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. The emperor, like the rumors in the market, stabbed his brother twice for the sake of King Yuanning.
There must be something else hidden.
Believing in this, Chen Xingning said: "Your Majesty knows that I have met this minister, and I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty."
"If one day, you are recorded as a cruel official in the annals of history, will you not regret it later?"
Chen Xingning smiled, he had thought about this a long time ago, he stood up and bowed to Bai Tian: "If killing one person can save a hundred people, I am willing to be a butcher knife for the wicked. Therefore, bearing the notoriety, the humble minister still considers himself a great chivalrous man, serving the country and the people."
After this day...
In Yao Kingdom's court hall, the situation became more and more alarmed.
Not long after Chu Yanchuan was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown, Cen Qi, the right guard Zhonglang general of the Longwu Army, was secretly reported and impeached because he lamented for Chu Yanchuan several times in different regions.
The impeachment report clearly recorded the specific location, content and target of Cen Qi's words and deeds.
But there are different opinions on who the person who wrote the letter was.
The only thing the ministers can be sure of is that the emperor has activated a still unknown inspection agency.
Although the emperor still didn't show up when he was in court, Ruan Meng read out the will in front of the palace-Cen Qi dismissed the official and kept it, and his father, Minister of the Ministry of War, Cen Lian, didn't know how to restrain and discipline his son, so he was fined for half a year.
In the end, he avoided public court battles, and cared about the face of the Cen family a little bit.
but……
If dismissed from office, at least end up free.
But it’s different if officials are cut and retained. Not only are they all over the place, but there is no reward, and people are still not free.
It is more likely to be left behind by the emperor, once forgotten for a lifetime...
Cen Qi laughed and lamented that the emperor was killing himself like a chicken, for the officials in the court who were treated like a monkey by the emperor.
Although his official rank is not too high, but he has always been taken care of by his father, he can be regarded as a young man who has made great progress, but suddenly his future is as bleak as ink, and there is no hope at all.
All day long, he is depressed and drinks alcohol.
He didn't return all night, and when he was discovered, he fell into the water because of drunkenness and drowned in the lake in a small courtyard of a restaurant in the capital city.
When the restaurant opened at noon on the second day and was discovered, his face was swollen and pale because of the face down. When Cen Lian came to identify the corpse, he cried heartbreakingly.
From then on, the emperor still did not go to court, and no one dared to take Yuanning king lightly.
