Chapter 242: Murong Chenyan who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead
Jiakangdi was able to sit on the throne firstly because of the full support of the loyal and brave duke, and also because of the full help of Prince Ying, who has made Prince Ying take the blame for so many years.
But the matter of Murong Chenyan in front of him was like a nail on the board, which made Jiakangdi hate the itchy teeth and just wanted to pull them out immediately, and he was deeply afraid of hurting his brother.
Jia Kangdi sighed in his heart, waved his hand, and said, "Since it's a family matter, then the other Aiqing should go down." Prince Ying, Prince Sun, and Ye Yuan stayed. Loyal and brave duke, Yuan Shangshu is waiting for the decree in the side hall. ”
"Yes, the minister retired."
The ministers responded in unison.
Soon, the ministers fled the Qinzheng Hall as fast as they could.
Jia Kangdi sat on the dragon chair without saying a word, and Chen Gonggong walked over worriedly and changed a cup of hot tea.
Standing in the next Shouying, Prince Ying knew Emperor Jiakang's embarrassment, and he blamed himself in his heart, in the final analysis, he didn't care enough about Chen Yan, so he had such a big idea and did such a big wrong thing.
Prince Ying turned around and asked, "Lord Sun, when did my family Chenyan tell you that he was going to go to the training?" Why did you never tell me? ”
Sun Wangye shook his head and recalled: "Chen Yan liked to dance with swords when he was a child, so he was sent by me to my friend's place to learn martial arts when he was very young. After returning from school, Chen Yan has been pestering me to enter the military camp for some training.
Prince Ying, you also know that I haven't been on the battlefield for a long time, so how can I take him to experience. When I was worried about this, you just let him go to Lingshan Academy to study, I thought that Lingshan Academy was a place where others couldn't ask for it, so I persuaded him to go to the academy to study first, and let him go to experience it when he had the opportunity in the future.
Isn't it that I just saw that the emperor intended to let Ye Yuan lead the troops, Ye Yuan was a capable person when he followed me before, if he could bring Chen Yan with him on this expedition, it would be good. As long as the emperor agrees, there is no need to assign Chen Yan any position, just go to exercise and exercise. ”
Prince Ying stared at Prince Sun for a long time and didn't see the flaws on his face, and he was worried for a while, could it be that he was thinking too much? Is this just a coincidence?
Jia Kangdi smiled and asked Ye Yuan, "What does Ye Aiqing think?" ”
Ye Yuan was single-handedly pulled up by Sun Wangye, and he has always obeyed Sun Wangye's words, but in the face of Emperor Jiakang's questioning, he suddenly made a difficulty.
But this time, he agreed to Chen Yan first, if he was allowed to go on the expedition without any position, I was afraid that he would hate himself to death.
He is just a small servant of the criminal department, but he is the concubine of the prince. This royal heir is already difficult, and his own small criminal servant is not enough in the eyes of others, and it is only a matter of minutes to pinch himself to death.
Feeling sad, Ye Yuan mustered up the courage to step forward and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Chen Yan is talented, but in fact, he can also let him take charge alone, and the minister will guide him. ”
Sun Wangye shook his head disapprovingly, and said unceremoniously: "How can he, a hairy boy who has never been on the battlefield, be in charge alone?" Isn't this giving people their heads away? You can't be away from the battlefield for too long, and your brain is rusty, right? ”
Ye Yuan was a little disappointed, but thinking of the promise Murong Chenyan made to him before he came, he still gritted his teeth, held on to the luck mentality, and said, "Father-in-law, we still have to give Chenyan more chances." ”
Sun Wangye flicked his sleeves, saluted respectfully to Emperor Jiakang, and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Chen Yan has never been on the battlefield and has no experience at all, so it is difficult to convince the people below. This is a big no-no for the army that goes out on the march. ”
Emperor Jia Kangdi kept his face calm and did not speak, sitting majestically on the dragon chair, staring at Sun Wangye and Ye Yuan all the time.
Ye Yuan was stared at by Jiakangdi and couldn't stand, and his whole body stood tense in place, trying to control his trembling body.
Ye Yuan knew that his father-in-law, Sun Wangye, had always taken a fancy to Murong Chenyan, and he thought that he would do what he liked when he made this request, so he naturally stood by his side. I never thought that at the critical moment, my father-in-law actually stood on the emperor's side, what should I do now?
After a while, Emperor Jiakang slowly spoke: "Gonggong Chen, go and call Murong Chenyan." ”
Gonggong Chen nodded and said, "Yes, the old slave will go." ”
Prince Ying looked at Jia Kangdi in surprise, and saw Jia Kangdi leaning on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, and finally lowered his head, not knowing how to speak.
In the huge hall, there was a dead silence again, and everyone standing in the hall had their hearts pounding, not knowing what decision the person sitting on the dragon chair would make in the next second.
Half an hour later, Murong Chenyan followed Gonggong Chen into the Qinzheng Palace, this was the first time Murong Chenyan walked into the palace, standing in front of Emperor Jiakang, it was estimated that it was also the only opportunity in his life.
Murong Chenyan lowered his head and secretly glanced around, and found that his maternal grandfather, Sun Wangye, was also in the palace, and his originally apprehensive heart became calm.
"See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Murong Chenyan saluted respectfully and said.
Jia Kangdi opened his eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Chen Yan, just now Ye Yuan proposed to let you take the army to Xishu, what do you think?" ”
This question directly made everyone's hearts in the hall rise to their throats, and all eyes were on Murong Chenyan.
Murong Chenyan didn't expect Emperor Jia Kangdi to ask so bluntly, but the desire in his heart did not allow him to be half cowardly at this time.
"Your Majesty, the grass people have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and they have studied in Lingshan Academy for many years, so they are not 100% confident in leading the troops to fight, but at least ninety percent sure that the army can return safely." Murong Chenyan said these words with a proud face, and looked at Emperor Jia Kang confidently.
Prince Ying stepped forward angrily and scolded: "The battlefield is unpredictable, and there is a witch king in Xishu, why are you ninety percent sure?" ”
Murong Chenyan said aggrievedly: "Father, although the child is not as often able to lead troops as the second brother, the child has never slackened at all, and he is familiar with military books every day and insists on cultivating. Why does the second brother go, but the child can't? ”
When Sun Wangye heard this, he sighed secretly in his heart, secretly took a few steps back, and lowered his head so low that he couldn't lower it any longer.
But how could Jia Kangdi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, not see Sun Wangye's movements, and asked with a smile: "Sun Wangye, what do you think of Chen Yan's words?" ”
Prince Ying, who was about to continue to reprimand Murong Chenyan, was interrupted by Emperor Jiakang's words, knowing in his heart that he was afraid that this matter would not be good today.
Ye Yuan couldn't escape, and his stupid son didn't want to escape.
Thinking of this, Prince Ying's heart ached, and he swallowed a mouthful of blood alive, staring at Murong Chenyan deadly.
Unlike Prince Ying, it is Sun Wangye.
"Back to the emperor, the old minister did not agree with Chen Yan's words, the ancients had clouds, and the paper was shallow, and they never knew that they had to bow to it. This matter can't be based on Chen Yan's thoughts. If Chen Yan wants to experience, he can follow the army over, but he can't lead the troops. Sun Wangye said without hesitation, without a trace of waves on his face.
Murong Chenyan looked at Sun Wangye with a shocked expression, although his mother said that his grandfather's support for him was not heart-to-heart, and his grandfather also saw that he had the opportunity to fight for the dragon chair. But I never expected that at this critical moment, my grandfather would no longer favor him!
Prince Ying listened to Prince Sun's words, and then said, "The minister seconded the proposal. Chen Yan is still young, and his judgment and understanding of many things are not enough, and the minister will teach him well when he returns. ”
Ye Yuan also saw the situation clearly, and said tremblingly: "The minister was reckless just now, and the minister also felt that what the two princes said was right, and Chen Yan still needed some time to hone." ”
"You guys." Murong Chenyan looked at his relatives unwillingly, and was annoyed in his heart.
When Emperor Jia Kang heard Murong Chenyan's voice, he asked in a deep voice, "What, what else do you want to say?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the grass people want to follow the army to the battle." Murong Chenyan saw that there was no way to ask for help, so he said bluntly.
Looking at Murong Chenyan, who was determined to change, Prince Ying stepped forward angrily and slapped him, saying, "Where is your part in talking here, don't shut up for me!" ”
Murong Chenyan covered his face, looked at Prince Ying in disbelief, and said sadly: "Father, you have never done anything to me since you were a child, and now the child just wants to have a chance to practice, can't you?" ”
"Why didn't you tell me earlier if you wanted this opportunity? It's just that this time to make a fuss. You said that the explosion on the streets of Beijing today was not a good thing you did! Prince Ying pointed at Murong Chenyan and asked angrily.
Murong Chenyan said with an innocent face: "How can a child have such a ability, father, you also think too highly of me." ”
Prince Ying asked in disbelief: "Then why do you have to go to Xishu at this time?" Why didn't you tell me in advance if you were going to Xishu? ”
Murong Chenyan sneered: "Father, in your eyes, in addition to the elder brother of the prince, there is only the second brother, how can you ever care about me and Changle." I don't have to go to Xishu today, it's that I've always wanted to go to the front line to have a good experience, but you always told me to pay attention to the study of the academy, and then take me out to experience when I finish my studies. But what about the second brother? He's already on the battlefield when he's in the academy, do you give me the same chance? ”
"Smack!"
Prince Ying stepped forward angrily and gave Murong Chenyan another slap.
"Chen He is naturally different from you, when he was in the academy, he was one of the best in all his studies, and he was also a disciple of the Great Elder. At the beginning, it was the dean who thought that Chenhe had this ability and gave me advice and asked him to try it on the battlefield.
And you? Always impetuous, if you can also get the approval of your dean, I can also let you go to war. What's more, Chen He was just a pawn when he first went to the battlefield, and he was able to get to where he is today, all by his own ability.
The emperor and I have never shielded him, nor have we given him any preferential treatment. You can go and see the injuries on Chenhyuk's body next time, it is definitely beyond your imagination. Although Prince Ying was so angry that he was almost smoking, he still told the reason why Murong Chenhe went to the battlefield.
But once people's hearts start to be paranoid, they can't pull back the nine cows, and Murong Chenyan is one of them.
"Father, that's also your wishful thinking, how do you know that I will be inferior to my second brother when I go to the battlefield. Father, you must not be too partial! Murong Chenyan covered his red and swollen face on both sides and looked at Prince Ying hurtfully.
"A fool cannot be taught." Prince Ying sighed, turned to Emperor Jiakang and said, "Your Majesty, you are a minister and a godson, and you are willing to accept the punishment." ”
Emperor Jia Kangdi shook his head and said, "Prince Ying, you are my imperial brother, and you have also contributed a lot to me over the years. But Chen Yan is not small, the mistakes he made must be borne by himself, you don't have to suffer for him. ”
"Your Majesty, what mistake did the grass people make? Why punish me? Murong Chenyan looked at Emperor Jia Kangdi with an innocent expression.
Seeing that Murong Chenyan didn't know whether he was alive or dead, Prince Ying stepped forward.
"Boom!"
Murong Chenyan knelt on the ground solidly, and the whole person looked extremely embarrassed.
