Chapter 129: Inviting people to ask about the country's going
It is said that he grew up with His Majesty and King Heng. Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, someone asked quietly.
"Yes, at the beginning, he and His Majesty were Taoyuan brothers who were like Liu Guan, if anyone knew His Majesty best, except for His Royal Highness King Heng, his younger brother, it was this Zhu Yun. The old minister who had seen Zhu Yun back then nodded.
"Wouldn't it be the most reliable for him to judge?"
"You can't say that, in case he opens his mouth and the black finger turns white, we can't just listen to his nonsense, right?" said another person, rubbing his beard.
"Then what can I do? The matter has come to this point, if His Majesty can't prove it, I'm afraid that this rumor will not be able to get rid of it in the future, and if it is mentioned again in the future, the three of them will become tigers, who knows what the result will be? This is really troublesome. ”
“……”
Whispers rang out in the room, expressing the worries in everyone's hearts, and also showing that the ministers wanted a reasonable explanation.
King Heng listened to these words, although he was still a little displeased, but he was also glad that those foolish courtiers who had been led away finally had a little measure, so he sneered with a little disdain and pride:
"Zhu Aiqing has always boasted of being loyal to the monarch and patriotic, but I didn't know that you were such a loyal monarch and patriotic. When I am not the emperor, it is your turn to comment on whether it is right or not! Then in the future, the succession of the great unification of the Chu State will also be up to you? Besides, I only learned that the emperor had this rumor, but how did Aiqing know about it? Chenzhou will be a day away from this, but the Qing family has been listening quietly outside the window for a long time. It wasn't until I asked if I could ask you who instructed you, and what kind of thoughts you had in mind?"
And these words came to the ears of the people. It's all the same. Looking at Zhu Yun's eyes, there was something wrong.
Yes, although this Zhu Yun was the companion of His Majesty back then, who can guarantee that what he said can be trusted?
But anyone with some qualifications in the court knows that Zhu Yun was demoted to Chenzhou by His Majesty because of King Heng's affairs, and he was reduced from a handsome man who could become a border general to a guard general in a small state capital. In the past ten years, he has repeatedly expressed his prayer for recovery, even when there is no one in the court to resist the battle of the Murong clan. He also expressed his willingness to give it a try, but he was never treated by His Majesty, and even directly asked the cabinet to remove Zhu Yun's excerpt without having to report it. It is inevitable that he will be resentful because of this.
But some people feel that this speculation is wrong, if it is just because of the events of the past, His Majesty treats a courtier who grew up together since childhood and is more like a brother. It's too ruthless and willful.
Not to mention. Zhu Yun once saved the emperor's life back then, his loyalty can be demonstrated, and his ability to lead the troops was also obvious to all back then.
However, when there was chaos on the border and there was no one in the court, the emperor was still unwilling to consider his self-recommendation, so he couldn't say it a little pedantic, and everyone couldn't explain it before, but it was that His Majesty's heart knot was too deep, but at this time, it seems. If it is said that Zhu Yun is afraid that he will detect clues and deliberately suppress it, it makes more sense......
But. Whatever the case may be, it's a personal one.
And the question just now, about why Zhu Yun, who was far away in Chenzhou, suddenly appeared in the palace, and eavesdropped outside the window for a long time, and so coincidentally went to the imperial capital with the soldiers and horses of the five states, and although Chenzhou was not in the five states at the beginning, the eldest princess and others were indeed marching from the city of Chenzhou......
If Zhu Yun can't give a reasonable explanation, then even if he proves that the current emperor is pretending to be King Heng, he can't get rid of his disobedience.
This is undoubtedly a stain that is difficult to erase for people who are determined to become handsome generals.
"Zhu Yun was not instructed by anyone, except for His Majesty, no one could let me do anything. As for why it appeared in the palace, if I say that someone wants Zhu Yun to argue the truth of His Majesty, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little stunned, what kind of words are these!
Even Fusheng, who was watching the show on the side, couldn't help grinning, sighing that this person was really a rectum, and he refused to bend at all, and said this contradictory thing, as if he was afraid that others would not misunderstand that someone behind him was directed.
Facing everyone's somewhat strange looks, Zhu Yun didn't have any self-consciousness, stopped and continued:
"Zhu Yun grew up with His Majesty since he was a child, and his brotherly love is far better than the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, and His Majesty was even more personally allowed Zhu Yun to be able to face the monarch without kneeling, and Zhu Yun was also grateful for the kindness of His Majesty. So when someone said to Wechen that the emperor in the imperial court was pretending to be someone else, Wechen was very angry but didn't know how to refute it, so it was difficult to sleep. In order to convince those people and find out why there were such rumors, Zhu Yun had to leave Chenzhou without permission to find out.
If what the man said was false, Weichen happened to be a witness with His Majesty, and also reminded His Majesty to guard against those who did wrong. If necessary, it is to give up this life, Zhu Yun also has to protect His Majesty Xià thoroughly, and then His Majesty will punish or kill and scrape, Zhu Yun will definitely not shirk the defense; ”
After Zhu Yun's words were finished, the faces of Fusheng and everyone were different from before, and they even showed a little appreciation.
Therefore, it is also good to be stupid, and such undisguised frankness can only make people more convinced.
So all turned their eyes to the Emperor to see what his reply would be.
King Heng didn't expect that after more than ten years, Zhu Yun is still such a stunned young man, different, he has eaten for many years and grown into a little scheming stunned young man, but when these prickly words come out, people feel that he is too sincere and has no heart.
Squinting his eyes, King Heng not only did not get angry, but laughed out loud. I only heard him say to Zhu Yun: "In this case, you come to ask, I must know everything, and I can teach those people to see if I am true or false." But—"
King Heng suddenly smiled and said coldly: "If you have half a lie, then don't blame me for not remembering the old years. ”
"Since you agreed, Weichen naturally didn't dare to lie. However, Weichen has a reluctant request, and he hopes that His Majesty will approve it. Zhu Yun was still the same as if his face was paralyzed, and he said lukewarmly.
"Tell me about it. ”
"In order to confirm that what Zhu Yun said is true, I would like to ask His Majesty to summon someone to come and confront Jun Qian with me. In this way, everyone can rest assured to see if what Zhu Yun said is true or false, so as not to have any misunderstandings. ”
"Oh, who are you talking about?" King Heng faintly sensed that something was wrong, and his brows couldn't help but furrow.
======
"Her Royal Highness Princess...... The old minister has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
Hearing Qianhua ask, Li De hesitated and said.
"General Li, please say, I am fortunate that you have taken care of us all the way, so that we can reach the imperial capital smoothly, and you don't have to see outside. Qianhua said sincerely.
"What Wei Chen wants to ask is, Is Her Royal Highness the Princess's trip really just to ask for an explanation? What is the princess's plan to do after that? What is the princess's plan? What is the third princess for? What is she for? If His Majesty is really played by King Heng, then what will happen to you? How will the entire Chu State deal with it?" Li De gritted his teeth, no longer caring whether he was angry or not, and said what he thought in his heart in one breath, and then exhaled the turbid qi that had accumulated for a long time.
