Madam,General Revives Again - Chapter 106
In the past, it was a busy place. Although the city was not big and the population was small, there were no fewer traders than the general bazaars. But now, because of the influence of the war, almost all the people in the city have fled. Except for those who can’t go, there are only soldiers stationed.
Therefore, Luo Qiuyun’s appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people. Fortunately, Chen Fuzi and Dan Qiusheng knew that Luo Qiuyun would come and wait at the gate of the city ahead of time. Otherwise, the soldiers who guarded the city might regard her as a spy.
At the same time, because of the rebellion in Yuecheng, the emperor also made people panic, except Zhongshun palace.
Since the new emperor ascended the throne, Zhongshun palace has faded out of the public’s attention because of its timely change of the past arrogant and high-profile style and forbearance. However, no one ever thought that the root cause of all disasters was his own planning.
As the master of Zhongshun palace, situ Le is the ninth uncle of the emperor. It is said that he was also one of the most popular successors to the throne. The mother of King Zhongshun, the original Princess Jia, was also favored by the emperor. If it wasn’t for the emperor’s young age when Emperor Hong was the emperor’s ancestor, it would be unknown who would have inherited the great rule.
At that time, many aristocratic families in the imperial capital have been worried about this, especially those who claim to be great families. Over the years, they have never stopped their ambition of expecting King Zhongshun to inherit Datong. Especially after the emperor’s death, some people deliberately repeat the old story, because the emperor’s title of crown prince has failed them, but the root of the disaster is still buried.
With the power of those super aristocratic families, situ Le did a lot of actions in private. Almost every time he made trouble, he was indispensable. Because of the lack of power in the hands of the emperor, he could not find out what was behind the scenes. However, with the turmoil in Yuecheng, Prince Zhongshun situ Le could no longer help it, and gradually revealed his ferocious face.
The palace.
In the meeting hall, the emperor was gloomy and silent for a long time. His eyes were still staring at his Highness’s officials. The atmosphere was particularly tense.
Because just a quarter of an hour ago, the emperor received the news that situ Hao, the carefree king, had been designed to be missing by the traitors. In addition, reports came from all over the country that the small countries around the northeast and southwest border were ready to take advantage of the internal turmoil.
The combination of civil strife and foreign invasion made the emperor have a headache, so it was impossible for him to have a good face. For this reason, the ministers have tried their best to restrain their arrogance in recent days, except for some who have taken refuge in the new Lord.
Xia Jingsong, the Minister of rites, is a member of the Xia family. Because of the family, he stood in line early and decided that Prince Zhongshun was his master. Therefore, he would only be more happy to see the emperor eat GA!
Today, the only purpose of his going to court is to block up the emperor. Knowing Prince Zhongshun’s plan, he has confidence in his heart. Xia Jingsong is even more proud than before.
Seeing that all the people were afraid to speak, he knew that it was his chance to perform, so he walked out slowly, stood in the center of the hall, arched his hand and said to the emperor, “emperor, since the Xiaoyao king is not good at leading the army, which has caused our army to be in trouble, and his whereabouts are unknown. If we don’t punish him, I’m afraid it will be difficult to convince the public.”
“What’s more, Xiaoyao Wang has always been arrogant and arrogant. He is also arrogant to his elders. It’s said that many people have opinions on him…”
“Fart, Xia Laoer, what are you doing with your mouth full of dirt? In order to defend the frontier, Xiaoyao king has devoted his blood all these years. When did he become arrogant and arrogant? I think you’re old and muddleheaded! ” It was Cao Jianfang who first came forward to argue.
Unlike the vast majority of ministers, Cao Jianfang was born in a poor family. He was promoted in the eighth year of the late emperor, and now he is a high-ranking official. He is also loyal, but he is always grumpy. If he had not met such a wise emperor as the late emperor and the present Emperor, he would have lost his head.
This man is a bit of Wei Zheng’s temperament, and usually he doesn’t give the emperor too much trouble. However, most of the time, the other party is still very good, otherwise, he won’t be the first to defend for situ Hao.
However, although Xia Jingsong’s official rank was lower than Cao Jianfang’s, he was born in a family, but he looked down on Cao Jianfang’s poor children. Therefore, he was not afraid of the other party’s rebuke, but aroused his desire to argue.
“Cao lao’er, don’t think you can hold me down. Although Xia is a man of humble opinion, you can’t be scared by a mud leg.” Xia Jingsong said that because Cao Jianfang’s ancestors were all farmers, he actually called Cao Jianfang a scornful term when he called each other “mud leg”.
“You are too deceiving!” Cao Jianfang was also annoyed when Xia Jingsong pointed his nose at him. However, he was the official of the imperial court and trusted by the emperor, so it was impossible for him to scold Xia Jingsong like a shrew.
What’s more, being bitten by a dog doesn’t mean that he will bite back. Although he is still unconvinced, Cao Jianfang has an idea and immediately thinks of other ways to deal with it.
Cao Jianfang sighed deliberately, shook his head and said, “I’ve finally seen the family education of Xia family. Everyone says that your family values the most rules, but now it seems that it’s not. Ah…”
Looking at Cao Jianfang’s posturing, Xia Jing was not happy when he relaxed. He turned around and pointed to Cao Jianfang and scolded: “fart, how can my Xia family ask you to be a clay leg to say, don’t think that you can distinguish right from wrong, my Xia family…”Cao Jianfang was scolded by Xia Jingsong by pointing his nose. This time, he was not annoyed. He slowly stood up, arched himself to the emperor on the throne, and replied: “emperor, I want to impeach Xia Jingsong, the Minister of rites, for three major crimes. Please allow me.”
“Impeach me? What are you doing? ” Xia Jingsong was a little confused. When he heard that Cao Jianfang was silent, he was going to impeach himself. His face was very black.
Seeing this, the emperor opened his mouth at the right time and said, “don’t be impatient. Since Cao Qing’s family has something to say, how about Xia Qing’s family listening to it?”
“No Cao Jianfang, Xia Jingsong and his Royal Highness’s ministers saw that the emperor had opened their mouths. Even though some people were not angry, they did not dare to say no openly.
You know, to fight against the emperor at this time is to resist the imperial edict. Even if Xia Jingsong wanted to block the emperor, he didn’t dare to be accused of resisting the imperial edict. After all, Prince Zhongshun hasn’t banned him. Now the emperor wants to take this opportunity to punish him.
In this way, it gives Cao Jianfang an opportunity.
Cao Jianfang hated Xia Jingsong in his heart. He was merciless in impeachment. He said that there were three major crimes, but in fact, the number listed in the end was far more than that. Even Xia Jingsong did not expect that he had committed so many mistakes.
“Emperor, it’s wrong, it’s wrong, it’s wrong, it’s Cao Ni – Lord Cao has a prejudice against me. How did I become such an unforgivable person?” Xia Jingsong said.
But Cao Jianfang didn’t give him the chance and said frankly, “what Cao said is true. What’s wrong with you? Emperor, Xia Jingsong is the one who has committed the most heinous crimes. He dares to disturb the morale of our army even if he doesn’t tell the truth. His heart is to blame, and his heart is to blame! ”
“You…” Xia Jingsong glared at Cao Jianfang, but he couldn’t speak after pointing for a long time.
The emperor was originally inclined to Cao Jianfang. Seeing that Xia Jingsong was forced to have nothing to say, he was very satisfied. If the disappearance of situ Hao had not bothered him, he would have laughed three times.
However, it was a rare opportunity for the emperor to suppress those aristocratic children, so Xia Jingsong had to admit his bad luck.
“Xia Jingsong, do you know the crime?” The emperor raised his face and asked in a cold voice.
Hearing this, Xia Jingsong shivered subconsciously, “the Emperor Minister I am wronged
“Well, I don’t shed tears when I don’t see the coffin!” The emperor snorted coldly and said, “since you don’t want to admit your guilt, I can’t afford to use an official like you. Come and take off the official clothes of the thief who made a rumor and made trouble for our army, and drag him out…”
“No – no – Emperor, you can’t demote me, you can’t do that!” When Xia Jingsong heard that the emperor was going to demote him, he was immediately flustered and said whatever he wanted.
Seeing this, the emperor looked at Xia Jingsong and asked, “I am the son of heaven. How can I not demote you as a little servant? Or do you have something to rely on? ”
“Emperor, I dare not, but I have a surname of Xia.” Xia Jingsong saw the emperor stop action, strong courage, usually dare not say the words out.
“So?” The emperor listened and looked at him with interest, as if waiting for him to speak.
Seeing this, Xia Jingsong continued: “the emperor should know that although the world today is still your world, it is also the world of our eight super families.”
“Oh? I see. You mean the eight aristocratic families can’t wait, can’t you? ” The emperor said suddenly.
Xia Jingsong was startled, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, quickly shook his head to deny.
Although Xia Jingsong is arrogant and complacent, and his brain is not enough, he is not a fool. He naturally knows what to say and what not to say.
However, since the emperor took the initiative to send him to the door, he would not wait for a long time. Moreover, with the development of the rebellion in Yuecheng, the emperor gradually realized that the fight between himself and the eight super families had come to an end, especially when he received the news of situ Hao’s disappearance, which pushed the emperor’s long-term forbearance to the limit!
If you can’t bear it, you don’t need to bear it any more!
Yes, the emperor had already made the decision to tear his face, which caught the ministers who had taken refuge in Prince Zhongshun by surprise.
“How could that be?” Xia Jingsong is confused.
However, after thinking about it, I could not help shivering.
You know, I’m not afraid of death, but I’m trying to add a jam to the emperor in order to sell well in front of Lord Zhongshun in the future. However, if I expose Lord Zhongshun’s plan because of my actions, what good fruit does he have?
