Chapter 139: Ministers Ask for Meritorious Service

The dispute in the court continued, and he couldn't even take care of lunch, which naturally alarmed the queen mother in the harem. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A eunuch walked quickly and saw Lu Yunqi, who was standing outside the hall, hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute.

"Isn't it over yet?" He asked in a low voice, "The Queen Mother is worried. ”

"I'll have to wait another hour." Lu Yunqi said.

His words were absolutely consecrated by the eunuchs, and they thanked them again when they heard the words.

"The slave will prepare the imperial meal in an hour." He said, turning around to leave, and thought of something, "Also, Lord Lu, I heard that Imperial Doctor Jiang was invited by you?" ”

Although Jiang Youshu of the Tai Hospital is not as popular as before outside, the Queen Mother still trusts him very much.

Jiang Youshu went to Beizhen Fusi for a few days and did not return, of course the family was anxious, because it involved Lu Yunqi, I don't know if it was the emperor's will, they didn't dare to tell the queen mother directly, so they asked the inner servants around the queen mother to inquire first.

Lu Yunqi hummed.

"Wutai, the prison army escorted from Fuzhou, I don't know if it's an old disease, and I can't stand it anymore." He said, "In order not to delay the interrogation and investigation, let Imperial Doctor Jiang help." ”

Fuzhou Supervisor Wutai Military Salary Corruption, it is said that Cheng Guogong is also involved, the matter is very important, the eunuch also knows, and immediately did not dare to ask again.

I didn't dare to ask if Wu Tai really had an old illness or was beaten out of the way, let alone whether he was really sick or fake.

"The slave knows." He said with a smile, "The main reason is that I haven't seen him enter the palace for a few days, for fear of delaying the Queen Mother's medication." ”

"Li Changhai of Tai Hospital, who was in charge of Sun Jing first, has a good pulse." Lu Yunqi said.

The eunuch comprehended, and was a little surprised.

Li Changhai didn't know how much money he had invested, but it was not easy to let Lu Yunqi recommend him, and it was not easy to make Lu Yunqi owe him a favor.

And this favor can also be said to be a free gift, after all, the people who can enter the hospital know the roots, and the medical skills are also really good, and many times it is just a chance to be recommended.

"The slave knows." The eunuch said with a smile.

At this point, I heard a crackling sound in the hall, as if something had been smashed down.

The emperor was furious again, the eunuch shrank his head, made a gesture to Lu Yunqi, and ran away quietly.

Lu Yunqi watched him leave, turned around and walked into the hall with a blank expression.

Zhu Zan knelt in the center.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been wrongedβ€”" he said aggrievedly.

Before he could finish speaking, the emperor took out a piece of music from the box in front of him and smashed it at him.

"This is because Shen Zhushan delayed the military plane." He said angrily.

picked up another book and smashed it at Zhu Zhan.

"This is Shen Zhushan's deception and disloyalty."

"This is for your father and son to withhold military funds to expand the mansion."

One after another, constantly smashing at Zhu Zhan.

Zhu Zan knelt motionless, letting the music hit his head, shoulders, and face in a mess.

The emperor seemed to be tired from smashing it, panting and pointing to the two boxes.

"See, these are all impeachments against you." He said, "I trust you and suppress this, and what will happen? How did you repay me? My face is swollen by you. ”

"Your Majesty, it's a gold thief..."Zhu Zan tried to distinguish it seriously.

The emperor was even more annoyed.

"Is it the golden thief's face? Didn't your father and son smoke it? He shouted, "Are you still proud of guarding the north and letting the gold thieves come and go freely?" ”

If he were to be another minister, the emperor would only say that the minister was guilty and would refute it afterwards, but since Zhu Zan said a word about him in this, he would inevitably have to reply.

"Your Majesty, the minister didn't mean that, the minister was wronged." Zhu Zan really said again.

The Emperor glared angrily and kicked a wooden box, and the music inside fell to the ground with a thud.

"Are you wronged? You support the army and respect yourself, embezzle military resources, avoid wars, delay, and lie about the military situation, are you wronged? I've been wronged. He shouted, "No wonder everyone in the north says that there is an emperor in the south and a prince of Chengguo in the north, you are really amazing." ”

This is really serious, and the ministers present no longer dare to pretend that they don't exist, and they all want to kneel down and ask for anger.

"That's not what it meant." Zhu Zhan's voice sounded again, "That sentence is that the people of the Northland are grateful to the emperor for his grace, saying that with Your Majesty you here, there is only my father here, and there is Antai in the Northland." ”

Very good, this explanation is perfect, it is worthy of Zhu Zhan, the ministers present looked at the person kneeling on the ground with complicated expressions.

The Emperor laughed angrily.

"You rabbit cub, according to what you say, it's all because of me that the Northland is uneasy now?" He scolded.

"How come, Your Majesty, you want to be crooked again..."Zhu Zan shouted.

The Emperor lifted his foot and kicked over another wooden chest.

"I don't think about it, the north is now uneasy, and the lives of the people are miserable, this is the reward that your father and son give me..." He shouted.

Zhu Zan took a step forward and kowtowed heavily, his voice overshadowing the emperor's reprimand, and then raised his head.

"Your Majesty, please go back to the north immediately, and the minister will definitely send your majesty's head to be used as a ball to kick!" He said solemnly and loudly, "If the minister can't do it, the minister will give his head to His Majesty as a ball." ”

The Emperor looked at him for a moment.

"I don't like to play." He exclaimed, "What's the use of asking for your head! ”

Ning Yan stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, please let Cheng Guogong make meritorious contributions, Cheng Guogong has not defended himself so far, personally led his troops and horses to pursue the gold thief, and asked His Majesty to give him a chance." He bowed and said.

As he spoke, seven or eight other officials also stood up and persuaded him.

The emperor was still angry, and finally sighed as he watched these officials.

"What about Lu Yunqi?" He shouted.

Lu Yunqi, who was standing at the end, stepped forward.

"Intended." The emperor said, and the eunuch on the side hurriedly bowed down.

"If you can't get the head of the dry answer, let the brocade guard take your head to see you." The Emperor continued.

The eunuch flew to write down and held the holy decree high.

"Chincis!" He screeched.

Lu Yunqi stepped forward to take it.

"The minister commands." He said.

After saying this, the emperor was pale and panting, and obviously had exhausted his mental strength, he brushed his sleeves and turned around.

"Retreat."

The ministers bowed down and shouted long live, and Zhu Zhan's voice was mixed in again.

"Your Majesty, what about me?" He shouted, getting up and looking at the Emperor as he stepped forward.

The Emperor gave him a cold look.

"You? You should go to the capital to supervise the horses and raise them, so as not to beat the gold thief and say that the horses are frightened. He said, and walked away.

Zhu Zan was unconvinced and wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Ning Yan.

"Lord Shizi, you can't do it." He said solemnly.

Zhu Zan glanced at him, turned around at him and strode out.

The officials in the hall also left one after another, and Ning Yan also walked out with his colleagues in a low voice.

"Lord Ning."

An old, hoarse voice called from behind.

Ning Yan stopped and turned his head and saw Huang Cheng sitting in a chair.

His official hat was still on his knees, his white hair was scattered, and he looked a little embarrassed, but his eyes were cold.

"The loss of Hejian Mansion is such a big event, and in your eyes, you can atone for your sins?" Huang Cheng said slowly.

Ning Yan saluted him.

"Lord Huang, it's also taboo to change the commander on the spot." He said sincerely.

The corners of Huang Cheng's mouth raised, and a smile appeared on his face.

"You might as well simply say that if the gold thief is here, Chengguo Gong will be there for a day." He said.

Ning Yan's expression was solemn.

"Lord Huang, I didn't say that." He said, "But how important the Duke of Cheng Guo is to the Northland is also well known, and His Majesty is also a saint. ”

Yes, the emperor is a saint, and the fear brought by the gold thieves plundering the capital has not yet dissipated, so he is frightened, and he does not dare to move at this moment.

Huang Cheng's eyes drooped, and he seemed to be in poor spirits and unable to speak.

Ning Yan glanced at the eunuchs around him.

"Send Lord Huang back to rest." He admonished.

The attendants responded and watched Ning Yan and the others walk out.

Huang Cheng was the only one left in the huge hall, and when the attendants suspected that he was asleep or fainted and wanted to call the imperial doctor, Huang Cheng raised his head and stood up.

"Don't think about it." He said lightly.

The attendants were confused.

"What did you say, Lord Huang?" They asked.

Huang Cheng smiled at them.

"It's nothing, I'm old, so I'm bothering you more." He said kindly, placing his hand on the hand of one of the chamberlains, and a string of turquoise on his wrist slid into the attendant's hand.

The chamberlain immediately smiled and held Huang Cheng steadily.

"Old Huang Ge, you are a slave." He smiled and urged the other chamberlains, "Go, raise your waist for your lordship, this is what Your Majesty has promised." ”

The attendants replied.

Huang Cheng was slowly and leisurely supported by the inner attendant and walked out. (To be continued.) )
