Chapter 186: Weichen still has something to do
Chapter 186
"Take it down."
Emperor Zhengcang slowly sat back on the dragon chair, leaned on the back of the chair, waved his hand casually at the audience, and said lightly.
Wang Ning's expression when he saw Dou Ba, how could all the courtiers present not understand?
Wang Ning may have thought at this time that he had no chance to get away with his crimes, or he was frightened after seeing the angry eyes of Dou Ba, who had come back from the dead, and sat on the ground in a daze, letting the two guards with knives on his side drag him down without a single struggle.
"Squire of the Criminal Department." Emperor Zhengcang saw that the court had returned to its previous peaceful appearance, so he said.
"The minister is here." Li Chenguang, the waiter of the Criminal Department, immediately stepped forward and bowed in response when he heard the voice.
"In your opinion, how should this case be handled?" Emperor Zhengcang asked.
"Back to the emperor, according to the law of our dynasty, all civil and military officials above the fourth grade who commit crimes are first handed over to Dali Temple for trial, and then submitted to the Criminal Department for compounding, and then the Criminal Department will draw up the punishment for the crime and ask the emperor for instructions." Li Chenguang said clearly at the moment.
Emperor Zhengcang nodded, but he looked at the left idiot and said:
"Lord Xiao Zuo, what do you think?"
When Zuo Idiot heard this, he arched his hand to Emperor Zheng Cang and said:
"Your Majesty, what Lord Li said is reasonable and legitimate, and Weichen has no opinion. But...... Weichen has a reluctant request, and I hope the emperor will allow it. ”
"Heh, general, general, look at your son, this song sung at this court meeting today is not enough, and you still have to make a request to me, and you don't care?" Emperor Zhengcang saw that Wang Ning had already surrendered to the law. Zuo Idiot's next request was mostly for Dou Ba, who was unjustly wronged and almost killed, so he said to Zuo Yuanfeng in his spare time.
Zuo Yuanfeng also arched his hand and said:
"Your Majesty, this son of the minister. has always been arbitrary, how can the minister manage it? ”
"Haha...... This is also true, this is full of capital, who doesn't know the prestige of Lord Xiaozuo. Okay, Lord Xiao Zuo, if you have any other requests, just say it, and I will grant it. Emperor Zhengcang said with a smile when he heard this.
Really. The left idiot opened his mouth and said:
"Your Majesty, although it is true that Dou Ba robbed the disaster relief money and food, now everyone knows that Dou Ba's move is indeed for the people affected by the disaster in the north. Instead of seeking his own selfish interests, he didn't want to almost die, suffer unjustly, and almost be scolded by the people of the world. Even later generations still abuse and comment. It's ......."
"That's it, I know. Now that I know what happened, how can I still sit idly by? Dou Ba listens to the order! Emperor Zhengcang waved when he saw Zuo Idiot say this, and said to Dou Ba.
"The grass people are here." Hearing this, Dou Ba immediately bowed down in fright and leaned over to listen to the order.
"Although Dou Ba fell into the grass, he still has a heart of compassion for the common people, and I am very relieved. The robbery of disaster relief money and food was confirmed to be framed by Wang Ning, a former Zhonglang and now a general in the north. I will never tolerate the guilty, and I will never treat the meritorious wrong. From now on. Restore Dou Ba's innocence, and tell the world about Dou Ba's righteous deeds, and live up to the justice of the world! Emperor Zhengcang put his hands behind his back, raised his head and said.
Dou Ba lowered his head and leaned over when he heard this, but he didn't speak for a long time, but he was trembling slightly, as if he vaguely heard a low sobbing sound.
Emperor Zhengcang and all the ministers in the court were silent when they saw this, and let Dou Ba calm down, no one made a sound, and no one stepped forward to accuse Dou Ba of being rude.
The official of the Ministry of Rites who had accused Dou Ba of being rude and bold before couldn't help but feel even more worried at this time, how could he know that this Dou Ba was wronged by Wang Ning!
"Dou Ba, you should be happy at this time." Seeing this, Zuo Yuanfeng walked over and gently patted Dou Ba's shoulder, and said comfortingly.
"Grass people, Emperor Xie!" Dou Ba kowtowed three times in a row when he heard this, his tone was like the surging emotions in his heart, and there was a slight stalk in the instability.
It's been two years......
Finally, I was able to stand in front of the world with dignity, and everything I had suffered before was finally over today.
"Okay, Zheng Zheng man also has a moment of iron-bone tenderness, think about the past two years, you have been wronged is really sad, okay, I will give you a hundred taels of gold, a thousand taels of silver, after you go back, don't be a bandit in the green forest, buy some real estate and fields, and live a stable life." Emperor Zhengcang said.
Dou Ba immediately knocked three times in a row and thanked loudly:
"Thank you to the emperor for the reward, the grass people will definitely live up to the emperor's love."
Emperor Zhengcang nodded when he saw this, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the case that Zuo Idiot raised at the court meeting this time had been resolved, and he still had this other thing in his heart, so he said:
"In that case, stand aside, and when the court is gone, receive your reward, and then go back."
Because Zuo Ba still had Dou Ba by his side, he did not return to the original team, but stood a little further back in the civil team.
And because Zuo Yuanfeng was the biggest official among the generals, he walked straight to the top of the generals' team and stood up.
When Emperor Zhengcang saw that all the people in the audience had ascended the throne, he said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have one more matter to discuss with you today."
After saying that, Emperor Zhengcang stood up and walked to the edge of the high platform, his eyes slowly swept over the hundreds of military officials under the stage, and said:
"Since my reign, the four realms have been safe and sound, but now, the Huiqiang clan has frequently appeared on the northern border, what do they want, and what do you think? Let's talk to me. ”
As soon as Emperor Zhengcang's voice fell, the hundreds of military officials in the audience began to talk in whispers, but they all looked embarrassed and confused, and for a while, none of the officials stood up to speak.
"General, you are going to patrol the northern border this time, and at the same time to deter the Hui Qiang clan, you must also have your own judgment, right?" Emperor Zhengcang saw that none of the ministers in the audience answered, so he turned his head to look at Zuo Yuanfeng, the general of Zhenguo, who was standing in front of the generals, and said.
Hearing this, Zuo Yuanfeng just stood in place and arched his hand and said:
"Back to the emperor, the minister immediately sent people to the north after getting the news, and he did get some news recently, and the minister can only be sure that Hui Qiang appeared on the border of my north this time, but there are more than 1,000 people, and there will be no harm to our dynasty."
Emperor Zhengcang nodded when he heard this, pondered for a while, and then said:
"That being the case, I can't help but be even more curious about the reason for Qiang's activities on the northern border this time. As the general said, there are only more than 1,000 people on this trip back to Qiang, and there is really nothing to do. Well, since you don't want to say it, let's wait and see what happens. ”
After speaking, Emperor Zhengcang seemed to think of something and added:
"As long as the Uighurs remain on the northern border, the next few days should not be peaceful. You must all polish my eyes and don't make any trouble. ”
"Yes......"
The ministers looked nervous, and immediately bowed down in response.
Seeing this, Emperor Zhengcang waved his hand and said:
"That's it, it's not too early, that's all for today's meeting. Go down. ”
When the ministers heard this, they wanted to bow again, but they didn't expect that a familiar and slightly cold voice suddenly came out at this time:
"Wait! The emperor, the micro-minister...... One more thing. (To be continued.) )
