Chapter 119: Sima Long was dismissed
"How? Did you find someone? ”
The soldier pinched the rope, his head was very low, his eyes were colorless, and in front of him stood a general in armor, with an eruption of momentum, majestic and solemn, and stood there, giving him the impression that there were thousands of troops standing there, ready to gallop at any moment, which was the prelude to the outbreak of anger.
The soldier's body moved back a little, and sure enough, the general, who could not hear the answer, stepped on the ground with his feet, turned around, and looked at him condescendingly, he was sweating like rain, his body was constantly shaking, and he couldn't suppress his body, although he couldn't see the general's face, he could also feel the anger in it.
"Can't find it?"
The suppressed voice began to be hoarse, the heavy breath continued to spurt out, the bloodshot pupils looked at him deadly, and the soldier was afraid to answer: "General, those two people seem to have completely disappeared in Chang'an, and their subordinates have searched the entire streets of Chang'an, but they can't find those two people, they seem to have been ...... By....... ”
The soldier's words are already obvious, death, those two people have been wiped out, the general can't find them, the general is silent, although he has the answer in his heart, but he is still unwilling, he finally sat in this position, because of this matter, because of their deceit, and lost in vain, he is really unwilling.
But what can be done?
"Let's go down."
His voice was weak, he was in no mood to continue to face this soldier, the soldier did not leave immediately, and said worriedly: "General, you ......." ”
"Didn't you hear me when I told you to get out?" The hysterical voice, roaring out with all his strength, angry anger welled up in his heart, and his red pupils stared at the soldier, who was startled by the general's terrifying appearance, and left without even saying a word.
After the soldier left, Sima Long was left alone in the room, and after the anger, he left the last calm, muttering to himself: "Do you really want to give up as Di Renjie said." ”
There was silence in the room for a while, and then another voice rang out: "Do I really give up?" But I'm really not reconciled. ”
There was silence again, and the slight wind blew the clouds outside, dispelling the obstacles that obscured the beautiful sky, but the clouds were still there, and they went to another place, still blocking the sky there, and they would not dissipate.
And so it is trouble.
…………
In the court, hundreds of officials are standing, waiting respectfully there, some are watching, looking, watching, some are sleeping, with their eyes closed, as if they are thinking about life events, and some are really falling into a deep sleep, dreaming beautiful dreams, nothing to do with themselves, life has all kinds of forms, and the same is true here, all kinds of looks, all kinds of struggles, all kinds of conspiracies, will be carried out here.
On the top of the court sat Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, sitting lazily, observing the quarrels of the hundreds of officials below, fierce quarrels, constantly looking for trouble from the other party, listening to his heart annoyed, every time he was so repeatedly noisy, he couldn't find something serious to do.
"Okay, don't make any noise, give me silence, you see what has become of you? It's a mess, one by one, what's the hurry? If you have anything to say, take your time, Master Pei, you speak first, Lord Liu, you wait for a while. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Liu Renliang obediently retreated to the team, extremely unwilling, his expression kept changing, and on the other side, Lord Pei, slowly walked out of it, and shouted: "Your Majesty, the next official asked Your Majesty to remove the position of commander of the Yulin Army, Sima Long, during Sima Long's reign, there were many murders in Chang'an City, and there was a case every three or five days, and as the commander of the Yulin Army, he actually derelicted his duties, not only did not catch the murderer, but let the suspect escape, and his whereabouts are still unknown, and what's more, Sima Long not only did not protect His Majesty's safety, but went out to the east and west all day long, In the name of His Majesty, he did something that hurt nature and reason. ”
"Please also ask Your Majesty to decide."
After Master Pei went to the book, a person came out behind him, and said directly: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." ”
Li Zhi's darkened face, when this adult came out, flashed a little different, and waved his hand: "Liu Aiqing might as well say it directly." ”
"Your Majesty, Wechen sued Sima Long, the commander of the Yulin Army, for dereliction of duty, Wechen looked through the recent case in Chang'an, and found that Sima Long, the general of the Yulin Army, was among them, whether it was the assassination of Taiyuan officials, or the incident of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince being monitored not long ago, as well as the incident of Lord Liu Renliang, Sima Long was involved, and according to the results of the case from Wechen, Sima Long not only let go of the suspect, but the Huang Daonan incident was inconclusive, and the murderer is still at large, and please deprive Sima Long of the post of commander of the Yulin Army."
This Lord Liu, as soon as he came up, was a bunch of crimes, and he directly stuffed Sima Long, no matter whether he did it or not, let's talk about it first, Liu Renliang is not happy, you are acting like this, this is persecuting Your Majesty, and besides, what is wrong with General Sima? In Lao Chen's case, hasn't the murderer already beheaded him? It is really immoral for you to put such a charge.
"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that what these two adults said is pure nonsense, first talk about the assassination of Taiyuan officials, the case has been personally interrogated by Lord Di, and the result has been reached, during the reign of the official, exploiting the people's fat and ointment, harming the people, harming one party, this kind of official does not kill, heaven is intolerable, and then said the flower meeting incident, at that time, the old minister was the organizer, Huang Daonan Huang has been demoted, and the case has come to an end."
"As for the matter of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince being spied on, it is purely out of nowhere, it is all rumors, Your Majesty doesn't believe it, what these two adults said, the old minister does not approve of it, and please ask Your Majesty to know what is going on."
Liu Renliang directly analyzed, refuted Lord Pei's twists and turns one by one, and even the things that Lord Liu played, all of them were directly refuted, Lord Pei sneered, and said: "Your Majesty, according to what Lord Liu said, isn't everything to be solved by killing people, my dynasty is a country of etiquette and a capital of law, even if a crime is committed, it should be decided by Your Majesty, not someone else who kills casually, killing pays for life, which is inviolable." ”
"Your Majesty, those barbaric acts are a contempt for you, Your Majesty, if I am like this to everyone, and if I disagree with each other, I will kill people, and the murderers will flee and hide from the punishment of the law by hiding their names incognito, then where is the majesty of our dynasty, and where is the majesty of Your Majesty?"
Master Pei turned to look at Liu Renliang and said mercilessly: "I don't know if Lord Liu saw this law on the law of my Chao Taizong, can you tell Weichen about it?" ”
"You ......."
Taizong's law, Pei Yan directly moved out of Taizong, what else do they have to say? You can't say that Taizong is wrong, right? That is an insult to the Tang Dynasty, not only will His Majesty not allow it, but the officials will not let him have a good time.
Liu Renliang was so angry that he couldn't do it, he moved his mouth, saying that he couldn't do these civil officials, if he could do it, he would beat ten of them one by one, and all those who were not afraid of death would come over, obviously, this is impossible, this is the court, the most majestic place in the Tang Dynasty, how can it be a place where he can be a martial artist.
"Looks like I'm going to have to help, Brother Sima, you have to pray." Di Renjie's heart settled for a moment, and he stood up from among the hundred officials, and before he took two steps, Li Zhi's voice sounded.
"If Di Aiqing has anything to say, just say it directly."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Di Renjie saluted, he looked at Pei Yan and said directly: "Di Renjie, the young secretary of Xiaguan Dali Temple, has seen my lord, but I don't know that the law that Master Pei said stipulates that the security of Chang'an is under the management of the Yulin Army?" Forgive the lower official for his lack of reading, the lower official has been in Dali Temple for so many years, and he has never heard of this law, so please ask Master Pei for advice? ”
Wouldn't you be arrogant? Didn't you just move Taizong out? Then I'll also move Taizong out and see how you deal with it.
Pei Yan squinted his eyes and looked at this Di Renjie carefully, with a dignified face, the appearance of a decent gentleman, but he didn't know that his kung fu was not bad, but the old man was not something that you could deal with with just a few words.
"Hehe, it turned out to be Lord Di of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Lord Di knows the laws of Taizong very well? Even remember this, I don't know if Master Di remembers that Taizong's laws prohibit Yulin Jun from going out of the palace casually? Didn't the old minister hear that General Sima had His Majesty's will, and asked Master Di to solve the old minister's doubts? ”
Pei Yan's eyes narrowed even more thinly, and he could vaguely see a crack, full of confidence, his eyes looked at it from time to time, Di Renjie inadvertently looked up, and noticed that there was movement behind the screen above, she was about to make a move, hey, Brother Sima, take care of yourself, Shu Di can't help you.
"What Master Pei said is very true, and the lower officials have nothing to say." Di Renjie returned to the crowd, thinking secretly, constantly paying attention to the officials around him, most of the officials were happy, looking at him with deep meaning and very vague eyes, as if he had touched the interests of some people, only a few people smiled at him, one of them was Liu Renliang.
"Hey, Brother Sima, maybe this is a good thing for you, it's too chaotic and complicated here, you are not suitable for this kind of place." Di Renjie sighed in his heart, it is impossible for an upright person like Sima Long to live for a long time under those old foxes, so it is better to leave Chang'an directly.
After the above action, Li Zhi's expression became even more ugly, as if he had made some decision, and said directly: "Quasi." ”
A quasi-performance, must have concluded the end of Sima Long, was dismissed, was directly driven out of the palace, and became a commoner, no longer the majestic Yulin Army, and there was no chance to serve the country.
Offending so many people, his future is dark.
Soon after, the holy decree reached Sima Long, and in the afternoon of the next day, Sima Long came out of the palace, walked into the East Market, and disappeared into the crowd.
