Chapter Seventy-Nine: Nagisa Palace (Thanks to Mirror Balance for the monthly pass, book list and reward)
The bell of the outer court rang three times, the gate of the nine-fold palace was wide open, the royal road was clean, and the forbidden army on the square lined up along the way, standing with halberds.
Everywhere they passed, the palace maids avoided all of them.
Changing the five-tailed phoenix pattern black Ling Yin court dress every day in the past, Ling Yin Zi today wears the golden five-tailed phoenix pattern Ling Yin armor that has not been worn for many years, wears a heavenly crown, a bronze heavy sword hanging from his waist, and the green beard is light and floating, and his majesty is unparalleled.
This golden phoenix armor may truly represent his identity as a national commander Yin who combines military and political power.
All the ministers stared at him in unison, landed on his golden dazzling phoenix-patterned armor, and bent down the waist of their magnates to salute him.
At this moment, everyone deeply realized that the most powerful thing about the Ruoao clan was not their power in the government and the opposition, but the army of the six Ruoao tribes that they relied on behind them.
Where is the most powerful blade of the Chu State in three hundred years.
Ling Yin Zi led the four generals and civil and military officials who were still in Yingdu with the order of Ruoao's six departments, entered the palace gate, ascended the ninety-nine eighty-one steps of Zhu Palace, and knocked on the jade steps, "King, last night, the deputy lieutenant of the five cities and horses Situ entered and exited the women's market, drunkenly disturbed the Yingdu Wangcheng, causing chaos in the market, the people suffered heavy casualties, and the princess was frightened and almost suffered a disaster, and Weichen has been dismissed from his post and demoted to a concubine!"
The king of Chu sat on the ninth-level jade steps of the Zhu Palace, and when he heard this, he didn't care about a Situ Nan, and agreed casually, but he was surprised by the dress of the child today, and raised his eyebrows and said strangely, "Ziban, why are you so grand today? But what turmoil has happened in Yingdu?"
Ling Yin Zi groaned slightly, and replied, " The king, I don't know, the night and yesterday Jinjie rebellion, Wechen is worried that there are people behind the trouble, the five cities of the Terracotta Division is the most important part of the defense of the Yingdu, now Situ Nan is drunk and shocked the city, disturbing the capital, it seems to be just an ordinary street chaos, but the five cities of the Terracotta Division happened at this time, it is difficult to say that someone is not behind the scenes, taking advantage of the traces of the Chu and Jin wars in our country, and wants my Yingdu Wangcheng to be in danger, so Wechen today summoned Ruo Ao Six Divisions have fully taken over the defense of the Yingdu City, to ensure that during the war, the capital is impregnable, and the king can preside over the domestic government with peace of mindγ β
Although the king of Chu was slightly surprised, he raised his hand and gave permission.
He has always been at ease when he does things
At the same time, the early autumn morning brought an awe-inspiring cold wind blowing on her face, blowing the woman's six-tailed phoenix robe, and her exhilarating voice resounded through the center of Nagisa Palace's power.
A storm ensued.
Mi Huang got up indifferently, his eyes were slightly downcast, and he looked at Ling Yin, who was dressed in military uniform, and asked coldly, "Then dare to ask Lord Ling Yin, it has been a few days since the case of the displaced people, dare to ask how the case is progressing? β
"Presumably, my father has been waiting for Lord Yin's reply for a long time. β
An undercurrent of heated debate in the court unfolded between the princess and Ling Yin in an instant.
Such a tense situation has made the ministers feel a completely different from when they were in the past.
The wind and waves shake, and the scales fade.
The angry waves are coming.
Ling Yinzi, who was dressed in armor, looked at her with deep eyes, and then replied in a deep voice to the King of Chu who was sitting on a high place, "King Qiqi, the case of the homeless people has been tried by the three divisions, and now due to the lack of evidence in the testimony, the Criminal Prison Department is still conducting a review, and there will be a conclusion in five days, and it will be presented to King Bing together." β
"Five more days?"
The king of Chu gritted his teeth and sat on the golden chair, patted the armrest murderously and said, "Zi, don't care about it! Anyone involved in this case will be killed by the widow in the end! But the lonely people must be recovered, otherwise the widow will definitely settle accounts with that Zheng Gong, and he will never give up!"
"Yes, Wechen understands. β
Ling Yin Zi frowned and took the order.
Mi Huang kept looking at him with a heavy gaze, and retreated to her golden chair.
It's just that Ling Yin Ziban had just finished speaking, and immediately someone lined up from the back, but it was the young Xian Yin, who had beaten Wu Hou to death earlier, who came out angrily and started playing the King of Chu: "King, the little minister has something to do!"
"What?"
When the king of Chu heard this raised voice, he felt that trouble was coming.
Even Li Lao frowned at this young official who was not afraid of death, and sure enough, they heard the next sentence: "King, the minister received a report last night, the newly appointed captain of Ruoao's six departments Qida, that is, the newly appointed captain of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, stayed in the women's market with Situ Nan last night, and the person in charge of the women's market, the women's division, picked up the talisman of the Five Cities Terracotta Division in the women's market, and happened to hand it over to the minister!" However, only two days after Captain Qi took office, Situ Nan was drunk and noisy, and he was responsible for poor supervision, and he himself stayed in the women's market with him, and he also lost the military talisman, which shows that he cannot take on the heavy responsibility of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses!"
"Therefore, Wei Chen asked the king to re-select the candidate for the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, so as to ensure that the capital is foolproof!"
As soon as these words came out, King Chu immediately frowned, looked at Zi Pan with a hint of anger and raised his voice, "Zi Pan, what Xian Yin said is this?"
"King, it's Weichen who doesn't check, and Weichen will re-elect a new captain to make up for it later!"
Ling Yin Ziban has never been so passive in his life, and was even openly bitten by a small salty Yin in the court.
His sword eyebrows furrowed deeply, his eyes were cold, damn Zida, he only assured him last night that he had made such a mistake immediately, and his gaze at Xian Yin was even more displeased.
When the king of Chu heard this, he waved his hand, and the matter was decided, "There is no need to choose!" Ruo Ao Duwei, Lone has been using it very well, very relieved, there has never been any chaos before, but now it is just a change of people, and the widows in this palace are not familiar with it, and there are chaos in this capital city that hurt the princess, so this relocation matter, wait until this battle is over, let Yue Jiao come back first!"
Ling Yin Ziban could only give up with a calm face, and affirmed that Liu Yi would be promoted as the deputy lieutenant of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.
After the end of the outer court, it was obvious that the entire court was suddenly divided into three factions, one faction was very powerful, headed by Lord Ling Yin, with Li Lao, Sima Situ, Wang Yin, Zhongsi, and Yin Zhongjun, who came and went.
There is also a very weak faction, only a few people are standing together with the leader of the princess, supporting them alone.
Zhao Hou looked at them and patted Cheng Daxin's shoulder, and sighed, "Daxin, in this case, my uncle can only cheer for you!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
Cheng Daxin's heart is awe-inspiring.
If Zhao Hou openly stood up to support them, then Zhao Ming, who was in the Chu army, would be in an awkward position.
Mi Huang expressed his gratitude to Zhao Hou, and being able to remain silent at this time was already the greatest support.
The other faction is the silent faction represented by the Pan family, who should be in office or continue to be in office, as if they have no reaction to the turmoil in the court today, and the Xianyin descendant who dared to sue Ling Yin is also among them.
Although Qi Da's position as the commander was deposed, the iron cavalry elite guard of Ruo Ao's six divisions was still as fast as thunder, taking over the important city defense affairs inside and outside the entire Yingdu, and the golden phoenix banner of Ruo Ao's six divisions and the black golden phoenix banner of the king of Chu were planted all over the city head of Yingdu at the same time.
The golden phoenix pattern clan emblem swaggers through the market.
Everywhere they passed, the officials and subjects bowed their heads.
In the Five Cities Terracotta Division, an internal bamboo slip from the Five Cities Terracotta Division was placed on Ruo Ao Yuejiao's desk at this time, although he was replaced by Qi Da and the Tong Army, but this does not mean that he completely lost control of the Five Cities Terracotta Division and the Tiger Ben Forbidden Army, this bamboo slip reflects Situ Nan's seal, Zhu Hong's "Situ Nan" Three words, indicating the ownership of this bamboo slip, the bamboo slip will be replaced by his original city defense replacement time, this small change, seemingly inconspicuous, but the use of this time, but can make his deployment appear a big loophole.
Ruo Ao Yuejiao snapped his fingers and tapped this bamboo slip, the corners of his lips pulled up a sneer, looked at Liu Yi who was kneeling on one knee beside the desk, and praised, "This matter, Liu Yi, you did a good job!"
"The little ones don't dare to be praised by adults!"
Liu Yi replied cautiously.
"I didn't expect Anan to do such a thing...... It's just that he's still helping me! If he hadn't been imprisoned, Captain Pontus wouldn't have been able to return to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division today. β
If Ao Yuejiao sneered at the series of arrangements above, if he hadn't discovered it early, I'm afraid that all the arrangements would have failed.
"Small, I just hope that these Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division will still be the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, not one day, we will become the last generation of government soldiers. Liu Yiqian replied.
"Since this lieutenant wants you to act as an agent, you can continue!"
Ruo Ao Yuejiao looked at him and raised his eyebrows and said, "If he has any instructions for you, what should you do, do you understand?"
"The villain understands that the villain has been the commander since he was a small five-city soldier and horse division, and even everything up to the present day has been given by the captain, and he is willing to die for the adult. β
Liu Yi bowed his head and gave his hand to receive the order.
But those eyes were reflected on the bluestone floor tiles, and there was a hint of coldness overflowing in the afterglow.
After Liu Yi left, Ruo Ao Yuejiao, who resumed his position as the captain of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the captain of the Huben Forbidden Army, reorganized the 50,000 Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division in the name of "Jinjie Chaos".
Standing on top of the layers of palace walls, he looked at the darkening sky and the golden phoenix flags that were planted all over the layer, and said coldly to Lu Yi, "Scatter all our people, I want the entire Yingdu to be all over my power!"
"Yes, Childe!"
Situ Nan was drunk and noisy, Qi Da lost the talisman, and Liu Yi hurriedly took the position, but in three days, the soldiers and horses of the five cities were replaced by three captains in a row, and their speed was breathtaking, but at the same time alarming, all the clans and clans set their eyes on this position.
If there is civil strife, it must start here.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the imperial capital was coming, all of which rose from Situ Nan.
Immediately afterwards, it was an amazing investigation that the Criminal Prison Department moved even faster, Yue Jiao was invited to the Criminal Prison Department for tea again, and even Ruo Ao Ziliang went with him as an accompaniment, and Lu Shi and Zhou Jinghua accompanied him.
The major clans are rumbling.
In an instant, Yingdu shook.
Because it was just an inquiry, it could not be convicted of a sinner, so all this was carried out in the flower hall where the Criminal Prison Division was entertaining, and Chen Huang wrote, "May I ask where was Captain Ruo Ao when Situ Nan was scared away by the carriage last night?"
"Captain Bendu returned home very early last night, and then he drank and got drunk at home, and it was not until this morning that I woke up this morning, and I learned from my father that Anan was seriously injured, and my heart ached. β
Ruo Ao Yuejiao sat at the inquiry table and replied, and pointed to Zhou Jinghua beside him, "If Chen Tingli doesn't believe it, you can ask my wife and the people in my house." β
Zhou Jinghua looked at Ruo Ao Yuejiao, her eyes flashed slightly, and then nodded vigorously, "My husband did return to the house early in the morning, and everyone in the house can testify, at the time of the incident, my father and mother also brought people to our residence to visit my husband, and he woke up in the morning, and he was going to go to the palace to take over the affairs, but then I heard about Situ Duwei." β
Chen Huang nodded, then looked at the other two.
"Dare to ask Ruo Ao Sima and Mrs. Sima, I don't know if what Ruo Ao Duwei and Mrs. Hua said is true?"
Ben Sima rushed to Jiao'er's room when he heard that Situ Nan was startled for the first time, he was already drunk and couldn't wake up, so he couldn't know Situ Nan's situation at all. Ruo Ao Ziliang nodded.
When Lu Shi heard Chen Huang's question, he couldn't help frowning.
She thinks back now, last night was like they were specially notified, they deliberately saw Ao Yuejiao drunk, everything was too coincidental, Situ Nan had an accident, and he was drinking, and they went to the Blue Wolf Pavilion, as if they had come to testify for him today.
But she still had to testify for him with Ruo Ao Ziliang, "That's true, our husband and wife received a message at that time that Situ Duwei was seriously injured in shock, and they went to Jiao'er's room as soon as possible...... And when we saw Jiao'er drunk in the room, we went back......"
"I don't know why Lord Sima, when you heard that Situ Nan had an accident, you immediately thought of going to Ruo Ao's residence, or did Madam Lu also think that this case was related to Ruo Ao's residence?"
When Ao Ziliang heard this, he frowned, and reprimanded categorically, "Chen Tingli, what do you mean by this? As fathers and mothers, do we still have to choose time when we care about our children?" and looked at Lu Shi accusingly.
Lu Shi had to stiffly smile and echo, "That's it, it's just that the two are too coincidental in time and collide together, we were worried that Jiao'er was uncomfortable just after changing the yamen last night, so we went over to take a look." β
If Ao Ziliang heard this, his color was a little dark.
Chen Huang asked this, knowing that because of Ao Ziliang's prevention and protection, I am afraid that it would be impossible to ask any result he wanted, so he asked Ruo Ao Yuejiao to continue to stay in the Criminal Prison Department to cooperate with the investigation, and the rest of the people could leave first, Ruo Ao Yuejiao did not refuse his request, but chose to stay here with a smile, a pair of wolf-like eyes always with an unusual smile, looking out the window The entire Chu State was surging because of him, evoking a silent laugh on his face and constantly magnifying.
The woman sitting in the next hall heard these meaningless questions and tapped her fingers on the table.
Yue Jiao must have lied in this, and Zhou Jinghua, as his wife, the two of them are both prosperous and lossy, even if they know that Yue Jiao is not present, they will definitely make an alibi for him; Lu has always been at odds with Yue Jiao, and even because he occupies the position of the eldest son, her sister-in-law has lost the right to inherit, her words have well explained that the husband and wife were already suspicious at that time before going to check, but either she didn't see the result she wanted to see, or Ruo Ao Ziliang had told her before coming.
So this kind of questioning is pointless.
The key is still Situ Nan.
