Nirvana In Fire - Chapter 172
After the crown prince made his position clear, some of the remaining courtiers who were still waiting and watching were suddenly bending down like wind and wheat waves, yelling “supplementary”.
After shrinking for a moment, King Yu and Huai also whispered something and stood in the queue of admonishment.
Amidst the temple, only one of Liang Keqing remained in the same place, watching all this with cold eyes like ice and snow.
If it was just the commotion of the group of ministers, Emperor Liang still had a little confidence to suppress them, but at the moment facing the fierce gaze of Xiao Jingyan, he began to panic.
Because he understands his son’s feelings about King Qi and Lin, at the time of absolute disadvantage, he would still argue vigorously regardless of the gains and losses. Now that the solid evidence has appeared, Xiao Jingyan certainly refuses to give up.
Without suppressing this son, the current situation of noisy and out of control cannot be stabilized.
But when Emperor Liang Sisi thought about it, he suddenly realized that he now had nothing weighty in his hand, and he could rule a prince who was a superintendent.
For the old emperor with a cold nature, Xiao Jingyan ’s growth beyond expectations is far more shocking and unacceptable than the truth that Princess Changyang just disclosed, so he gritted his teeth and traveled inside the temple. To find some supporting power.
The old minister, the new minister, the royal family, the harem … Everyone’s face could not see the expression he wanted, even the gentle and gentle quiet concubine, at the moment his eyes were so bright that he couldn’t look directly.
Reigning supreme and claiming to be alone for decades, Emperor Liang did not really taste the sense of isolation until this time.
More importantly, he can no longer veto all objections violently and rudely as he did then.
After a lot of noise.
The hall slowly became quiet, but the silent power contained in this silence made the emperor feel more stressed than the chaotic shouts just now.
Because this is obviously not impulsive.
Not simply follow the crowd, calm down the group of ministers.
Still all standing in the position of admonishment, no one showed the intention of retreating.
Emperor Liang knew that since things had developed to this level, no matter how long the stalemate persists, there will always be only one result.
“I … played by Zhu Zhuqing …”
The old emperor spoke weakly.
Xiao Jingyan’s heart suddenly stirred, but he immediately controlled himself, did not appear outside, but just glanced at Cai Quan quickly.
“Your Majesty has given permission to re-examine the case of Chi Yan, is this candidate for trial also to be sanctified together?” Shang Shu of the Criminal Department bowed respectfully.
“Don’t talk about the DPRK on this occasion,” Emperor Liang’s tone refused softly. “… The choice of the chief judge will be decided again.”
“Your Majesty, this is a big deal, and it should not be delayed.
Since this is already the case today, why change the date? The book called for Liu Cheng to say, “The old minister just thought about it.
This presiding judge is not a trivial matter, and must be highly respected, honest and selfless.
It’s smart and meticulous.
I am afraid that it is difficult for a person to take up this position, or choose a few more.
It ’s good to be the co-leader. “Master Liu’s words are very,” Shen Zhui said immediately, “Secretary recommended Lord Ji.”
“Senior recommends words!” Mu Qing’s voice is still very loud.
Faced with the sound of recommendation, Emperor Liang forcibly closed his astringent eyes.
In fact, it does n’t matter who will be the presiding officer. As long as Xiao Jingyan is still there, the future results of the Chi Yan case will be clearly visible. Even if he is the Ninth Five-Year Lord, he may be unable to stop it now.
In the end, King Ji, Yanhou and Ye Shizhen, the chief secretary of Dali Temple, became the candidates with the highest approval rating. Emperor Liang withdrew from the sudden tiredness in his heart, and he took all the sights.
When the three men bearing the important task bowed down to the collar, Xiao Jingyan, who had been holding it steady, suddenly felt a little hot in his throat and involuntarily turned his attention to Mei Changsu.
Mei Changsu remained silent. He was as quiet as the non-existence in the chapel that was boiling like a pot of boiling water.
But as long as you look carefully, you can find his black, sullen, bottomless eyes, staring steadily at the old emperor with his body above the imperial tier, as if he wanted to penetrate the decayed weak shell, Stabbed into his tough and vicious, egoistic past …
But Emperor Liang did not feel the sight of the guest secretary. He was shaking his white hair and shaking up, trying to escape from this hall that made him breathless.
The prince and courtiers still bowed respectfully when he left, but the Supreme Heavenly Son felt that it was completely different from when he looked down on the group of ministers. This difference is inside, the deeper it is felt, the less there is no words to describe it. .
Jing Fei stood up with Emperor Liang as usual, but she just stretched out her hands that she wanted to support, and Emperor Liang pushed her away, leaning on Gao Zhan’s shoulder, and ascended the Dragon Dragon alone.
For this rejection, Jing Fei did not care, her lips tinged with a faint smile, and An Zhiruo took another step back to the inner palace.
On the small Kang table in the emperor ’s bedroom, the unfinished chess game in the morning was still placed as it was. Nothing was moved. When Emperor Liang stumbled in, this was the first thing he saw. On the chessboard, black and white jade pieces splashed around, and a few pieces still hit his own face, causing pain to his skin.
After Shouyi, father and son fight again … but what can we fight now? Regardless of the outcome of the chess game, when he had to disobey his will and succumb to the princes and courtiers, he had abandoned his son to admit defeat.
The case of Chi Yan is the biggest knot between father and son. This emperor Liang already knew, but what he did not expect was that there were so many truths behind this case that he did n’t even know. Unexpectedly, after a lapse of 13 years, all of this has surfaced again, just like the resentment of the undead, insisting on not returning to peace and rest.
Emperor Liang suddenly shivered and shrank his body involuntarily. He just wanted to call Jing Fei, and then stopped abruptly.
The screams coming from the side corridor before leaving in the morning somehow flashed back into the old emperor’s brain at this time. He patted the table and shouted, “Come here! Call Yue Fei! Quick call Yue Fei See the drive! The emperor is still the emperor, and the decree is still implemented very quickly.
In less than a moment, Yue Fei was led to the palace.
She has lost her style now.
It seemed to be a haggard old woman, but in a pair of beautifully contoured eyes, there was also a cold chill from time to time.
Seeing Emperor Liang.
She rushed over immediately. The first sentence was repeated: “Your Majesty.
The concubine wants to secretly report … secretly report … “
“Yue Fei,” Emperor Liang pinched her chin and raised her entire face. “What do you want to report? Was it a sudden trouble in Wuying Hall today?”
“The concubine wants to secretly report to King Jing … King Jing conspiracy …”
“You are in the palace, how do you know about Jingyan?”
“Zuozhong Cheng’s Eastern Master said …” Yue Fei said eagerly.
Some words are incoherent, “His nephew entered the palace … and said to his concubine … Adults in the East are loyal to the prince, and loyal to the prince is loyal to His Majesty …”
Emperor Liang frowned, only half a day later to realize that the prince in her mouth was referring to Xiao Jingxuan, who had been abolished, and his face suddenly sank.
“Jing Wang has been summoning courtiers, nonstop, a lot of … Adults in the East heard the wind … But His Majesty did not go up, he could not see His Majesty, he could only think of his concubine.
For so long, only he could still remember his concubine … As long as King Jing fell, the prince would be able to return … The adults in the East were loyal, and the prince would not treat him badly.
Your Majesty will not treat us wrong, we are the first complaint.
It is the first effort.
You must break King Jing’s corpse into pieces and take the prince back … Xuan’er is the prince.
The concubine has made great contributions to defeating King Jing ’s conspiracy, and the adults in the East also support Xuan’er. Please ask your Majesty to restore the prince and restore the prince! “
Speaking of the later, Yue Fei’s original gloomy expression became very excited, not only the tone was sharp and high, but also the foam at the corner of her mouth, which made Emperor Liang very frightened.
Maybe like the Eastern lord, His Majesty the Emperor may not have seen the Concubine in a long time. He never thought that the present situation of the magnificent concubine had changed into such a situation. Save, only one paranoid and hysterical remains.
Even if what she said was true, her madness was not false. Realizing this, Emperor Liang began to violently pull her and pull, but the more she fell, the more she gripped, her nails had almost penetrated the beam. In the emperor’s flesh, he hurt so loudly, “Come here! Take her down! Take it down!”
“Your Majesty … Jing Wang Mouri, the concubine’s first job … please restore the crown prince …” Yue Fei was dragged out by the inner attendants in a panic while yelling, Emperor Liang only felt his hands and feet cold, his eyes bright For a while, he couldn’t help but crooked to lean on the soft leaning, closing his eyes and panting.
Gao Zhan hurriedly brought the calming tea soup, patted Liang Di and poured it down.
Emperor Liang felt a pain in his chest, he could not lift his breath, and his limbs were numb.
Thinking of what Yue Fei said just now, she was both angry and helpless.
What has happened since then? He didn’t even have the physical and mental power to cheer up …
“Your Majesty, do you want to call a doctor?” Gao Zhan asked lowly.
“Call … Go to call …” In any case, life is the most important thing. The more you pant, the more embarrassed Liang Di will feel.
Fortunately, after the doctor hurried over to have a careful diagnosis, he said that the five internal discords caused by qi and blood were dry, and there was no serious symptom. He prescribed a medicine and ate it in a hurry, which made it a little calmer. Bathing and falling asleep.
I don’t know if it was the effect of the medicine, or whether Liang Di was old and frustrated. After a quarter of an hour, he had fallen asleep.
Gao Zhan knelt at the corner of the bed for a while, and when he heard no sound, he climbed up gently, looked at the bed for a few times, curled up and walked back quietly, stepped back to the side door step by step, flashed and slipped silently. Went out.
Outside the side door is a long cloud-topped corridor. Jing Fei still stands gently under the corridor. The coat is fluttering, the wind is full of sleeves, and the eyes are clear and peaceful. There is no special expression.
Gao Zhan stopped at a distance of ten or so from her, staring at the lady who gradually rose to the top in the middle of no dispute.
Looking at it, the Six-Government general manager always lowered his eyebrows and his face was blurred for the first time, which was the expression of secret determination.
Gao Zhan knew that the time had come for a clear choice of final position.
“Yang Niang, it’s Zuo Zhongcheng Dongfangzhi …” He approached Jing Fei behind, he only whispered such a simple sentence. After he finished speaking, he curled up and waited for the result without moving.
Jingfei Jingliang’s eyes rolled a little, only a faint hum, without a word, but the tight lines on Gao Zhan’s face had already been loosened a bit, and after bowing deeply to salute, He returned to the dormitory along the same path.
Emperor Liang on the couch still maintained the posture just now, but the breath became more and more disordered.
After another moment, he began to commotion, his head rolling on the pillow, his forehead cold and sweating, his hands scratching twice in the air from time to time, his mouth murmured.
“Wake up your majesty, and have nightmares again.” Jing Fei did not know when she appeared in the temple and gave a gentle command.
Gao Zhan responded quickly, got up, leaned over to the bed, and gently rocked Emperor Liang’s arm.
“Your Majesty … Your Majesty !!” After even shouting more than a dozen times, Emperor Liang suddenly felt shocked by something, and jerked up suddenly, staring dumbly at the front, sweating heavily.
What did your majesty dream about again? Concubine Jing used a Supa to gently sweat the old emperor and said softly, “This time it should be more than Concubine, are there others?”
Emperor Liang shuddered, waved her hand hard, and said angrily: “Dare you come to see me? I am so kind to you and your mother and son. You are so suspicious and deliberate about turning over the case of Chi Yan! I am really blind. Eyes, I have been spoiled for things like you who are unfaithful and unfilial! “
“Even if we are thinking about it,” Jing Fei said safely, “but there is a little sire that must be clear that the reason why the red flame case will be overturned to wash snow, in addition to our deliberate thinking, there is another more important reason.”
“Why, why?”
“the truth.
This is the truth. Jing Fei’s eyes seemed to be tangible, piercing the heart of Emperor Liang. “Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. As long as you don’t want to admit these facts disclosed today, of course no one can force you.”
But even the emperor, there are always things that cannot be done. For example, you ca n’t influence the conclusions of the conscience of the people in the world, you ca n’t change the comments of future generations, and you ca n’t stop the old people who come to you in the dream … “
“Don’t talk any more!” Emperor Liang looked sallow and he was fighting in all directions, holding his forehead with both hands, yelling and falling backwards, panting on his pillow.
Concubine Jing stretched out a lonely hand and gently rubbed in front of Emperor Liang ’s eyebrows, whispering: “Your Majesty, if you talk about loyalty and filial piety, Lin Shuai is not unfaithful, nor is King Qi unfilial, Jing Yan has always used them As a role model, Jing Yan will never do anything that they did not do in the past. Please do not worry, Your Majesty. “
Emperor Liang slowly released his hand covering his face, and looked at Jing Fei firmly: “Dare you promise?”
“If your majesty really understands Jing Yan, he will not ask the concubine for a guarantee.” Jing Fei’s lips kept a light smile, but her feathers were drooping, making her eyes unclear. “Jing Yan asked for nothing more than truth and justice. If His Majesty could give him, why should he be suspicious elsewhere?”
Emperor Liang dumbly weighed for a long time, and then stared at Jing Fei’s gentle face for a long time, and finally sighed long, and muttered: “… the matter is here … it is up to you … I do n’t say anything … “
