Chapter Seventy-Five: Straight and Unyielding

The golden stone bell chime rang, and the dignitaries and nobles in the inner city of Luoyang City had not heard this once familiar voice for three months, which meant that something big was about to happen!

Some people are in a state of panic, while others are confident enough to roll over and go back to sleep.

From yesterday afternoon to evening, a lot of news spread in the inner city.

Ma Yue put a burqa on his cheap nephew, who was sitting on the ground and asleep with his head tilted, but did not wake him up.

Stretching his waist, he put the books on several cases into his arms, moved his muscles, and got into the car with Fu Xie, who also had black circles under his eyes, and drove towards Xiyuan.

Because of the fire in the North and South Palaces, today's court meeting will be held in the West Garden.

In the early morning of the fifth watch, accompanied by a light rain, the sky was still dark, although the two of them did not sleep all night, they were not tired, and the light rain accompanied by the cool breeze on their faces and poured into their hearts made them refreshed. These two Liangzhou people want to do a big thing in today's court!

Hundreds of officials walked on the path of the West Garden in an orderly manner, to be honest, it was much more gorgeous than the palace, but it lacked the solemnity that belonged to the court.

The bell rang for the second time, and Ma Yue stood in the middle of the court, his eyes looking straight ahead, and his heart was a little nervous. He could feel it, three princes and nine qing, and his eyes swept over his body. He had never felt so nervous and oppressive in the court, when he was about to say something.

Jian Shuo stood on the side of the dragon chair, Zhang Rang walked to the bottom in small steps, and waited until Liu Hong, who was late, sat on the dragon chair, raised his neck and said, "Go to court!" ”

"Your Majesty!"

The hundred officials cheered in unison, Liu Hong rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at the hundred officials who were kneeling down in the hall and raised his hand and said, "Get up, please play if you have something." ”

Ma Yue wanted to come out of the ranks, but when he saw someone faster than him, Fan Ling of Yongle Shaofu came out of the ranks and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to report." ”

He is the person in charge of Yongle Palace, and after Ma Yue stopped, he listened to Fan Ling say: "The little prince has reached the age of studying now, and I ask you to select a young master for the little prince." ”

"Let the Prince's Association follow...... Wrong. Liu Hong yawned, and wanted to find a teacher for Liu Xie at random, but after thinking about Wang Meiren, Liu Hong said: "Did Shangshu order Lu Zhi to come?" ”

"The minister is here."

When Lu Zhi heard this, Liu Hong said: "How about you occasionally go to the Yongle Palace Pope to study the scriptures?" ”

"Your Ministers obey."

After Fan Ling withdrew from the court, Ma Yue immediately stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister advises the doctor Ma Yue to ask for something to play." ”

Liu Hong came to his senses as soon as he saw Ma Yue, he knew what Ma Yue wanted to say, raised his hand and said, "Submit it." ”

Ma Yue presented the music, and Zhang Rang did not stare at Ma Yue when he took it, but smiled intriguingly. This smile made Ma Yue's eyes widen, and he felt that Zhang let them know what they were going to do, but they didn't seem to care. Ma Yue had some bad premonitions in his heart.

Sure enough, Liu Hong put it aside after reading the song, and said to Ma Yue: "Ma Qing, please tell the officials the content of the song." ”

"No!" Hearing this, Ma Yue forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said loudly in the main hall: "The north and south palaces have been burned down since February this year, and the work of raising wood and stone has not been done so far, where is the royal prestige?" After hearing that the fire broke out, some people persuaded His Majesty to order the collection of ten yuan per mu of land tax in the world, which was used to build the palace. The timber and patterned stones of Taiyuan, Hedong, and Didao counties were requisitioned, but whenever the prefectures and counties sent these things to the capital, those who persuaded you to increase taxes always ordered to condemn and reprimand those who did not meet the standards for transporting wood and stone, and forcibly discounted and bought them at a low price, and only gave a cent for ten of them, and sold them to the eunuchs, but the eunuchs did not accept them immediately, and the wood was piled up and decayed, and the palace could not be repaired because of this. If the palace can't be repaired, the local assassins and taishou can only increase the number of requisitions privately, and if this continues, it will not be able to be repaired even next year. ”

The courtiers watched with interest as Ma Yue presented himself in the center of the main hall, many of whom had received the news yesterday, although they didn't know why, but what they saw was that Ma Yue was going to eat dog with the eunuch.

The new Situ Xu Xiang looked at Ma Yue with disdain, he had seen too much of this kind of drama, and he felt in his heart that Ma Yue's short political career was over. This kind of person doesn't know what loyalty is, he started by relying on eunuchs, and when he turned over, he felt that he could, and his wings were stiff as if he wanted to turn over and be the master. Cao Mengde, who is close, plus this Ma Yue, heard that they are still friends.

Too many people know about this, and you Ma Yue don't look at whether anyone cares, and you don't want to think about why others don't care, it's so blind! ’

Xu Xiang is a pro-eunuch party, just spent money to buy a Situ, he thinks that people like Ma Yue and Cao Cao know how to cause trouble for the boss in their own family, when Cao Cao killed Jian Shuo's uncle, Jian Shuo was still a little eunuch who relied on Zhang Rang, he saw with his own eyes how Cao Song kowtowed to Zhang Rang and admitted his mistakes, and now there is a Ma Yue, I really don't know how the sky is high and the earth is thick!

The eunuch party looks at it this way, and the Qingliu old minister is also average, they didn't say anything about it, the eunuch is greedy for more money, what can they do, Your Majesty will turn a blind eye, the more you little pony pulls out such a big basket, no one will follow your ass to find it unhappy.

"Then tell me what the doctor is going to do?"

Liu Hong's eyes were a little cold when he looked at Ma Yue, and yesterday, not long after Ma Yue left, Zhang Rang came over and handed over the key to the private treasury that Liu Hong ordered him to hand over. In that treasury, there are the proceeds from Liu Hong's official sales and the money and money that have been resold in the past few months. Zhang Rang had already explained to Liu Hong that the hands and feet of the people below were not clean, and he had just learned about this matter, and he had already raided the homes of three little eunuchs and retrieved their belongings. Zhang Rang asked Liu Hong what he meant, what should he do with the money.

Joke, will Liu Hong send this money back? Don't even think about moving out when you enter the treasury!

I like to like, I like more people, if Ma Yue mentions my money...... I sent him as a lieutenant and sent troops into Xiliang to fight the Qiang people to the death.

Ma Yue arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the minister to whom this matter belongs is not doing well, no matter what, the palace should be repaired first, and the minister wants to ask for orders to supervise the construction of the palace." ”

He said this very well, and his starting point was also very good, he felt that as long as the palace materials were done first, and the palace was repaired quickly, this matter would be over, even if the ten permanent servants thought of a way to make money in the future and then stop it themselves, anyway, he had to stop those states and counties first and then recruit more wood and stones.

It's just that this is not what this means in other people's ears, and some people are laughing: You Ma Yue said so righteously, isn't it that you have fallen in love with this fat difference...... It's a joke.

They feel that today's court meeting is really a dog-eat-dog in the eunuch faction.

"Haha! Good! Good! Liu Hong was so happy all of a sudden that he confused Ma Yue, "Your Majesty, what did the minister say wrong?" ”

"No, you're right. Let the father decree that the more the horse will be a master. Liu Hong said to Ma Yue with a smile: "Wouldn't it be okay to say that you mean this earlier, remember to go to Wanjintang to pay the money later!" ”

"What else is there to do with you Aiqing?"

I? I'm here to buy an official? Oh my God, that's not what I meant!

Ma Yue could only silently retreat from the train, secretly roaring wildly in his heart!
