Chapter Seventy-Nine: Mixed Blessings
The imperial court received two letters one after the other, and the urgent encrypted notes made the cabinet feel nervous when they saw it, and immediately took the notes to meet Emperor Qianyuan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The content on the fold made Emperor Qianyuan's face very complicated.
In Juyong Pass, King Wu led people to defeat the barbarians, successfully kept Juyong Pass, and recaptured the fortress lost by the imperial court.
Emperor Qianyuan smiled, "Haha, a great joy." ”
Several courtiers in the cabinet opened their mouths to express their joy to Emperor Qianyuan, and praised the merits one after another.
The words of praise came to an end, and the next letter made the atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly tense.
"Bang!"
"Your Majesty is angry."
As soon as Emperor Qianyuan's reprimand fell, the courtiers' pleas for guilt then sounded.
Outside the imperial study, the little eunuch on duty listened to the voices inside, and these adults, who were usually high in the morning, all changed their faces at this moment, and they couldn't help but be careful.
Something big is wrong.
The door to the imperial study was kept closed, and it was finally opened from noon when the ministers entered until the sun went down in the evening.
The courtiers walked out of it one by one, but in an afternoon, these old men seemed to have aged several years at once, and some of them who had gray hair had aged a lot.
Emperor Qianyuan's decree was quickly issued, and the Imperial Forest Army escorted the messenger of the decree, and after leaving the city gate, they went to the two places at a fast speed, and at the same time, many homes in Kyoto were suddenly raided, and they were arrested and put in prison without any reason.
The whole Kyoto people were panicked, but fortunately, the Son of Heaven issued a series of decrees the next day, and everyone finally knew the reason for the matter, although they were surprised by the daring actions of those people, but they knew that Emperor Qianyuan was not arresting people for no reason, and the panic in their hearts was finally a little less.
With the delivery of the song, the news of Liuzhou gradually came, and everyone did not expect that the situation in Liuzhou would be so serious.
In the Imperial Study.
Emperor Qianyuan had an angry look on his face, "Serious? It's serious, and they don't know what really serious it is. This country is still not my country, under my nose, they dare to do such a thing, do they still take me in their eyes...... cough cough cough ......"
"Your Majesty is angry."
"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon."
The two prime ministers on the left and right were there, as well as several ministers in the cabinet, and everyone immediately spoke to persuade them.
Emperor Qianyuan said: "How do you let me calm my anger? I really didn't expect that the situation in Liuzhou would be so serious, with officials and bandits colluding, selling officials and lords, and what else they didn't dare to do. ”
Zuo Xiang spoke: "Your Majesty is angry. ”
All the ministers knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty, and at this time, regardless of whether it was their fault or not, it would never be wrong to admit their mistakes.
Emperor Qianyuan vented his anger for a while, and calmed down under the persuasion of his courtiers. Things had already happened, and Emperor Qianyuan's anger had reached its peak when he first knew about it, but now at this time he had calmed down.
Emperor Qianyuan: "I have given Song Yun the sword above him, allowing him to cut first and then play." A series of officials in Liuzhou, one counts as one, as long as it is involved in this matter, I will not tolerate it. ”
The ministers said: "Your Majesty is Shengming." ”
Your Majesty Shengming is not Shengming ordinary people don't know, they only know that the atmosphere in Liuzhou is becoming more and more tense, since Lord Qincha caught the bandits, the entire Liuzhou City not only did not loosen, but the whole city became more and more martial law.
The people of Liuzhou City were worried one by one, and many shops did not dare to open at the moment, and when they saw the yamen's servants arresting people everywhere, they were afraid, and they were more and more strict in restraining their own people.
The news spread quickly, and after Song Yun recovered his spirits, he immediately interrogated the big boss and others, who at first thought that the people behind them would definitely come to their rescue, no matter how Song Yun interrogated them, they didn't say anything, or even if they did, they were all inconsequential words.
Song Yun is not in a hurry, it just so happens that the approval of the imperial court has not yet returned, this case is bigger and can be pierced to the sky, he also has to know what Emperor Qianyuan thinks in his heart, and what he should do next in his heart to know in his heart.
He will never let go of the moths of these countries, Song Yun has studied hard for so many years, and what he hates the most is this kind of person, and it is because of these people in the court that the rule of officials will become more and more corrupt, and the lives of the common people will become more and more difficult.
Song Wan'er said: "Big brother, these things are not your fault. Don't be in a hurry. ”
Song Yun shook his head, he didn't know that what his sister said made sense, "Thinking of the crimes committed by those people over the years, I really want to behead them all immediately." ”
The officials forced the people to rebel, if these bandits were really forced to live because of life, although Song Yun couldn't get used to it, he also knew that there was no way to do it, but now it turns out that these bandits are not simply bandits, there are not a few lives in their hands, and there is some kind of big force behind them, when Song Yun realized that this force may be related to some people in the court, Song Yun has some square person.
Those individuals are all officials of the imperial court, and they all pretend to be sanctimonious on weekdays, but they didn't expect to be such people.
Song Wan'er sighed, at a young age, with the sorrow on her face that she shouldn't have at her age, and said, "Big brother, can't you see it?" The problems of the imperial court are serious, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. ”
When a dynasty comes to an end, all kinds of problems often erupt, and the problem in Liuzhou is just a microcosm, thinking of what they experienced in Kyoto, the two brothers and sisters of the Song family were a little congested for a while.
In Kyoto, several princes are still staring at the highest position, not to mention anything else, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once spent a million taels of silver for the birthday of Emperor Qianyuan, where did he get all this money, a prince, where is there so much silver, needless to say, it must be the people below who honor him.
Looking at the big from a small age, we can see how corrupt the officials of the entire Qianyuan Dynasty should be. The vassal kings in various places supported their own troops, and there were barbarians outside the pass, and small-scale wars also occurred from time to time in the pass, and the people lived in fire and water, and it was difficult to live.
Song Wan'er and Song Yun's brother and sister chatted for a while, but their mood became more and more heavy, originally Song Wan'er came to relieve her brother, but after she finished speaking, her mood also became worse.
When Yunmo came back from dealing with his own affairs, he saw Song Wan'er sitting there alone, sullen, and her eyes immediately changed. (To be continued.) )
