Chapter 1176: The Empress is furious
While the two were chatting, Grandpa Kui hurriedly ran from a distance, his tired forehead was covered with sweat, until he ran to the Baihua Pavilion, he was also out of breath and couldn't say a word.
Empress Shuixiang was a little angry, and said angrily: "You dog minion, don't you see me chatting with the queen?" How many times have I said that you are not allowed to disturb me. ”
Father-in-law Kwai was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, paused for a long time to straighten out his anger, and shouted: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, something is wrong." ”
"What's so flustered? Say it? Empress Shuixiang said angrily.
"Lin Tian, the commander of the Beiyuan Imperial Forest Army, mobilized the Imperial Forest Army out of the imperial city without authorization, I don't know what he wants." Aoi shouted.
"What?" Empress Shui Xiang stood up from her seat in surprise, her eyes kept flashing, she looked at Grandpa Aoi who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"It was Lord Shi Qinghan who came to tell you."
"Where's she?"
"After she quickly told the old slave, she left the palace, probably to stop General Lin Tian's rebellious move." Aoi Gonggong's eyes kept turning, in fact, when Qing Han was outside, he was stopped by him on the grounds that the empress didn't see anyone, he learned from Qing Han's mouth that Lin Tian led the Royal Forest Army to Feihua Mountain, and felt that this was Lin Tian's own death.
In the end, he sent away Qing Han, and pretended to be 100,000 anxious, and reported to Empress Shuixiang at this time, but he concealed the whereabouts of Lin Tian's army, in order to make Empress Shuixiang panic, and then mobilize other troops to suppress Lin Tian, in this way, he hated Lin Tian. and he will surely die.
The Empress sat down again, her face flushed with anger. With a thud, her hand slammed into the board. The black and white chess pieces made of jasper were suddenly scattered on the ground, "How can this be true, I love him so much, he actually mobilized the Royal Forest Army without authorization, this is a rebellion!" ”
Aoi Gonggong smiled as a thief, then stepped forward, further fanned the flames, and said, "Your Majesty, this General Lin's intention to rebel has been revealed. You should make a decision sooner...... Let the commanders of the other Imperial Guards lead his army to arrest him at once, so as not to make a big fuss. ”
"Yes." Empress Shuixiang nodded thoughtfully, stood up from her seat again, and said with a grim expression: "Father-in-law Kui, pass on my will and order the commanders of the Imperial Forest Army of the East, West, and South Gardens to lead their troops to ......."
Before Empress Shuixiang's words were finished, Bei Youran interrupted her words and said, "Your Majesty." You can't make such a will. ”
Empress Shuixiang was slightly stunned, and asked suspiciously, "Why not?" ”
"That's right." Father-in-law Kwai also echoed: "This military situation is urgent, and it can't be delayed for a moment, if the holy decree is too late." I'm afraid Lin Tian is about to hit the palace. ”
Bei Youran smiled coldly, flew out with a kick, and kicked the old eunuch Kui Gonggong to the ground. shouted: "Old thing, you are just a eunuch. Who is in a position to dictate to me? Also, don't you know that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in court affairs? And you just said it. Lin Tian went out of the city with the army, if he really wanted to rebel, he could just open the Xuanwu Gate he was guarding and enter the palace, so why bother to make such a big move? ”
Father-in-law Kwai was kicked to the ground and screamed in pain, but Bei Youran said everything to the point, he was a eunuch and had no right to interfere in the government.
"Your Majesty, the old slave is just worried about your safety, not to interfere in the government." Aoi's father-in-law knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, his forehead was desperately in contact with the floor on the ground, and blood came out.
After listening to Bei Youran's explanation, Empress Shuixiang also felt that something was wrong, and then looked at Aoi's father-in-law and asked, "Say, what's going on?" ”
Father-in-law Kwai said with a bitter face: "Just now, Lord Shi Qinghan, who is in charge of the sword, came and said that General Lin Tian led the 10,000 Royal Forest Army of Beiyuan out of the city to encircle and suppress the bandits of Feihua Mountain, because the bandits of Feihua Mountain captured dozens of soldiers in Beiyuan, and Lord Qinghan also said that General Lin Tian said that no matter how His Majesty dealt with him, he would go to rescue the captured Imperial Forest Army, but he only had one request, that is, when he surrounded and suppressed Feihua Mountain, please not send troops to stop him...... When he rescued someone, he wanted to kill him or listen to him. ”
The last sentence was made up by Grandpa Aoi himself.
Empress Shuixiang's brows jumped, she was a little angry, she really didn't expect that this old eunuch would actually lie about the military situation, she was really afraid that the world would not be chaotic, if it wasn't for Bei Youran wittily forcing him to tell the truth, it is estimated that until Lin Tian and his army were destroyed, she would not know the truth of the matter.
Seeing that the empress was so angry, Father-in-law Kui hurriedly begged for mercy and said: "Your Majesty spare your life, the old slave has a little holiday with General Lin before, so he has this bad heart, please spare your life." ”
"Dog minion, you almost killed General Lin." The Empress of Shui Xiang flew up and kicked Aoi Gonggong several feet away.
Bei Youran was slightly stunned, don't look at this woman is a little weak, but her cultivation is really not low.
After Aoi's father-in-law flew to the ground, he didn't get up again, although he didn't die, he only had one breath.
"Come on, drag this dog slave out and weigh it on a fifty board." The Empress of Water Fragrance shouted.
"Yes." Immediately, two guards dragged Aoi away like a dead dog.
Empress Shuixiang took a long breath, sat back in her seat, glanced at Bei Youran, and asked, "Youran, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”
Bei Youran smiled faintly and said: "Your Majesty, General Lin is a man of temperament, and it is normal for him to lead the soldiers to rescue him when he learned that his soldiers were captured by the bandits, but the state has national laws and family rules, and Lin Tian is guilty of mobilizing the Imperial Forest Army privately." ”
"So, you advocate a heavy punishment for General Lin?" The Empress of Water Fragrance said.
"Not really." Bei Youran said: "It depends on General Lin Tian's appearance, if he can exterminate the bandits in Feihua Mountain, he can offset the merits, but if he returns with a big defeat, even if His Majesty is merciful and doesn't bother with him, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces probably won't let him go." ”
Empress Shui Xiang nodded thoughtfully, indeed, this private transfer of troops is already a capital crime, if Lin Tian can't make it worthwhile, even if she is tolerant, this minister will not will.
Bei Youran continued: "Your Majesty, things are already like this, if you really want to save General Lin, you need to give him some support, so that he can exterminate the bandits in Feihua Mountain. ”
"How can I support it?" The Empress asked.
"Didn't the old eunuch just say that? General Lin Tian had no other request, that is, he hoped that His Majesty would not send troops and interfere with him in any way. Bei said leisurely. (To be continued......)
