Chapter 624: God bless Kong Sheng, leave a bloodline
"Great victory!"
"Shandong victory!"
The two red feather messengers shouted all the way from Andingmen, to the royal street, saw the people gathered, and even paused to quickly say the great victory in Shandong, and then continued to rush to the imperial city!
The White Lotus Sect was originally nothing, and the people of the capital had never even heard of it.
I've heard of it, but it's just a joke.
The people of the capital have seen a lot of high-ranking officials, and a mere cult is considered an egg!
Even if it occupies the eight counties of Shandong, it is just a disease of scabies, and there is nothing to worry about.
Until the day before yesterday, the imperial court broke out that the Confucian family in the Holy Mansion was destroyed, the governor of Shandong, the political envoy, the three giants of the punishment and probation, and even the governor of the Shandong Daying, the four giants all had something to do with the White Lotus Sect.
For a while, all kinds of rumors spread around, and the demon wind was gusting.
In connection with the fact that so many things have happened this year, some people are faintly pointing the finger in the direction of the imperial city......
Immorality!
Those who have more heart, are waiting for the day when the white lotus will rise and erode the North Zhili, and it will be a success in chaos!
However, no one expected that the big drama had just begun, and it was impossible to say that it was going to disturb the battle of the world, but it was only two days of hard work, and the White Lotus Sect was wrapped in dumplings by Lin Ruhai and served in one pot? !
Didn't you say that Lin Ruhai was a waste?
Why did you kill Zhang Liang before, imprison Luo Shikuan, Cao Xiangyun and Li Song, and now destroy the White Lotus Sect?
Is there such waste in the world?
……
Dry the door.
Emperor Long An stood in front of the imperial case, raised his chin slightly, looked at the faces of the military planes and the six Shangshu, Dali Temple, Yushitai and other important ministers of the imperial court, and could not hide his excitement and said loudly: "The same military aircraft, the same ministers of Zaifu, look at Luo Rong, and then look at Lin Ruhai!" A pampered person, who has lived a long time, still feeds on human milk. One dragged his sick body for the sake of state affairs and went to Shandong to inspect, and now he is carrying the coffin and going out to fight for the country! It's good for you guys, but you allow people to splash dirty water outside and depress your name?
The most rare thing is that the silver rice donated to Shandong does not need to be allocated! After exterminating the White Lotus thieves, the materials, money and food obtained are enough to help Shandong......"
However, before Emperor Long An was happy, he listened to Wang Shiying, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and asked faintly suspiciously: "Your Majesty, the grain, rice and silver money of the White Lotus Sect must have been looted from the Confucian family of the Holy Mansion, the Xiao family of Lanling, and the Langya Wang family, the family of the ministers, and other six Shandong clans. The ministers and other families are all innocent cultivators for generations, and now the children of the clan have been slaughtered by the White Lotus Demon Demon, could it be that this silver, rice, money and grain have become the things of the White Lotus? ”
Emperor Longan: "......"
He didn't expect that after getting such great good news, this group of important ministers of the court above the top three grades would be the first to speak.
Soon there was a second one, though......
Cui Shiming, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is also a native of Shandong, and it is from the Cui family in Qingyang, Shandong.
This time, the White Lotus Sect attacked and destroyed the six major scholar clans, and the Qingyang Cui family was also among them.
Cui Shiming's mother, siblings, and eldest son who did his filial piety on his mother's side, as well as thousands of clansmen......
At this moment, he is more excited than Wang Shiying, because although Wang Shiying is also miserable, his foundation is in the capital, and there is the Hengsheng number, although the loss is large, but there is no place to turn over, but the Cui family ...... The foundation is lost!
The worst thing is that because of his mother's funeral, he has to go back to his hometown to worry!
Therefore, Cui Shiming was simply hateful, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, Lin Ruhai took the money and food of the victims, invited merit and sold his name, and his heart can be punished!" Also, since he has such ability, he went down to Shandong with the dignity of Zaifu University Scholar, and saw that Luo Shikuan's thieves were wrong, so he should take the opportunity to take it immediately, take over the military and political power, and destroy the White Lotus as soon as possible, why do you have to wait until the Holy Mansion is destroyed? ! Indecisive and delaying the military aircraft, what face does Lin Ruhai have to set up a military aircraft again? ”
"Hubris!!"
Emperor Long An couldn't bear it anymore, and said sharply: "It is still excusable for the Ministry of Rites to guess that the money and grain belong to you, how dare you reverse black and white like this in front of me, and stir up right and wrong?" Luo Shikuan, Cao Xiangyun, Li Song, Zhang Liang, all of them are the second and third grade purple officials of the imperial court, and the officials of the feudal territory, if it is not for the time when 100,000 people are in a hurry, who would dare to kill in vain? Some time ago, Lin Aiqing sent a messenger back to Beijing to report the news, but was stopped by Luo Rong's son, and was almost killed, when Jia Qiang was angry and killed, what did you say? Who said that even if Luo Bin is guilty, he should wait until the three divisions will be tried and punished? Now that it's up to you, you have begun to accuse Lin Aiqing of being indecisive? I hate it deeply! ”
When Cui Shiming heard this, his face was miserable, and after kneeling on the ground, he took off the official hat on his head, kowtowed, and said: "Since the thirteenth year of the high school emperor list in the early years of Jingchu, the minister does not dare to say that he has contributed to the country, but he has also been a conscientious official, and he has never been slack. Twenty-three years as an official, did not return home to return home for a day, after the widowed mother raised an adult, there was also 23 years without seeing mercy. If people say goodbye today, the ministers ask for begging bones, resign and return to their hometowns, and from then on, they will always serve their ancestors in the grass house. Your Majesty, I wish you long live the emperor, long live, long live! ”
These words, like a slap in the face, hit Emperor Long An hard.
The important ministers of the court also exchanged glances with each other, what is mean and unkind?
Maybe that's it!
Dou Xian saw that Emperor Long'an's face was gloomy and terrifying, and said: "Lord Wang, Lord Cui, the two adults should mourn first. The emperor and the court were very sad and angry about the matter in Shandong, and I believe that Lord Lin is the same, so he completely ignored some rules, and immediately made a decisive move, punished Zhang Liang, and captured Luo Shikuan and others. It's just that before that, I am afraid that Lord Lin never thought that Luo Shikuan and others would collude with the demon cult. If it were you, would you have imagined? So it's really no wonder Lord Lin for this matter. Of course, the money and food that the White Lotus Sect looted from the Six Clans should be said separately. ”
Emperor Long An looked at the expressions of all the important ministers, Wang Shiying and Cui Shiming also nodded, a chill in his heart, and he asked slowly: "Gold and silver belong to the six families, but it is also said in the past." But you say, "The grain also belongs to the six tribes?" ”
Hearing that Emperor Long An's tone was wrong, the faces of all the important ministers changed slightly, and when they thought of something, their eyes at Cui Shiming and Wang Shiying were a little strange.
Cui Shiming was puzzled: "Your Majesty, the White Lotus Sect does not produce, if the food is not looted from the six clans, where does it come from?" ”
Emperor Long An said loudly: "It's a coincidence! Then I have a question! I took out 10 million taels of silver from the inner treasury to buy relief grain, why did it disappear when I arrived in Shandong?! ”
Cui Shiming said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, even if the six clans bought food from Luo Shikuan and others, how could the six clans know that those grains were the food of the imperial court to help the victims?" They also paid real money to buy it! ”
Emperor Long An sneered: "Do you know or not, it's not too late to talk about it after Luo Shikuan, Cao Xiangyun, and Li Song enter Beijing!" But even if the six clans really don't know, according to the law of Dayan, buying greedy things is also a crime! Cui Shiming, you are also a reader of sage books, and you are learning benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, and you keep saying what kind of benevolence, righteousness, literature and etiquette are people! Millions of victims in Shandong have been displaced, and I and the imperial court have poured all the grain and rice they have bought, but let you divide it up! I would like to ask, what do you want to do in such a catastrophic year, when the six tribes of you have hoarded so much relief food? ”
Seeing that Cui Shiming didn't answer, Emperor Long An suddenly raised his voice and said angrily: "If you don't say it, I'll say it!" It's nothing more than wanting to take advantage of the disaster year to annex land and take the people into slavery! Every time there is a natural disaster, the court and the heavenly family have to do everything they can to relieve the disaster. The result? Most of the money and food for disaster relief has gone into the hands of wealthy families like you. That's it, you also have the face to mention what loyal ministers and filial sons, cultivate and read heirlooms? Jia Qiang, who you keep scolding, was sent to the heavenly prison for a mere upright, knowing that I am difficult, I can still do my best to help the victims. Look at you again, ashamed or not? Is this Shandong just the Shandong of one person? Don't forget, Shandong was resented by the wrath of the heavens and other scourges, and this is why there is the scourge of the White Lotus! ”
With that, he flicked the sleeves of his robe and turned to leave through the back door.
After Emperor Long An left, Dou Xian frowned and looked at Wang Shiying and Cui Shiming, and said coldly: "The emperor is reasonable, before Luo Shikuan, Cao Xiangyun, and Li Song enter Beijing for trial, the two clans must not leave Beijing. ”
After speaking, he also strode away.
After Dou Xian left, Wang Shiying and Cui Shiming looked at Jing Chaoyun with sad faces, and said, "Jing Xiang, but there is still heavenly reason?!" I can't wait, maybe even the Confucian family in the Holy Mansion has to be treated like this? ”
Jing Chaoyun let out a long sigh, Lin Ruhai did too neatly in Shandong, so neat that Emperor Long An had enough confidence to not leave them the slightest dignity......
……
Inside the Temple of Nourishing the Heart.
After Emperor Long An came back, he was angry again, and when Dou appeared, he was still angry.
Dou Xian didn't have the intention of persuasion, but said in a deep voice: "The emperor shouldn't have said today that the seized money and grain were used for relief!" If it is only said that the case of Luo Shikuan and others stealing and selling grain and rice has a result, wouldn't it be more in line with the laws of the imperial court? Why get carried away? ”
Emperor Longan: "......"
In his heart, he can't wait to use a knife to chop this old forgetful, which side is he on?
Dou Xian completely ignored Emperor Long'an's angry eyes, and still poured cold water and said: "The emperor is not too happy, the matter involves the Confucian family of the Holy Prince, if this matter is not handled properly, the hearts of the world's scholars will be shaken!" If the Northern Confucius is lost, it is better to choose one person from the South Hole to enter the North Hole as soon as possible, or simply move the South Hole to the North Kong. In the final analysis, Nankong is the main branch. Migration is a big thing, and it will inevitably consume a lot of ......"
"We'll talk about this later!"
Emperor Long An really couldn't listen to it anymore, as if a person who suddenly became rich and was about to lose this windfall.
It's not appropriate to say this, after all, the six clans have divided the relief food of the imperial court, and he just wants to take it back now, although there are a lot of things to recapture......
But was the money and food for him? It's not for the people of Shandong!
However, seeing that Emperor Long An didn't listen to the persuasion, Dou Xian didn't give an inch, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, if the new policy wants to be popular all over the world, there are very few officials and scholars who must return to their hearts!" At the very least, they can't be allowed to deviate from morality! If there are only Cui and Wang, the ministers will not say much. But the Kong family must not be neglected! ”
"We'll talk about this later!"
The green tendons on Emperor Long'an's forehead were beating, and he said with a strong anger.
Dou Xian still refused to retreat, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, once the news that the imperial court wants to use the Kong family's money and grain to help the victims spreads, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the world and the people's hearts ......will be in turmoil."
"That's my grain!!"
Without waiting for Dou Xian to speak, Emperor Long An couldn't help but roar angrily!
Dou Xian also said loudly: "Your Majesty, the dead are the greatest!" The Kong family, the sage Miao descendant, died clean from top to bottom! At this time, the emperor said that they had embezzled the grain and rice for the relief of the victims, how many people in the world would believe it?! Your Majesty, the overall situation is important!! The matter involves the Confucian family, even if the prince of the mid-levels is here, he will only be cautious! ”
When Emperor Long An heard this, his face froze and he stared at Dou Xian.
Dou Xian didn't give up half a step, and he also stared at Emperor Long An.
After a long while, Emperor Long An nodded slowly and said, "Okay!" Good! The overall situation is important, and I ......"
It's just that before he finished speaking, he saw a waiter in the Yellow Gate hurriedly come in, and said, "Your Majesty, Shandong's third letter of eight hundred miles is urgent!" God bless Kong Sheng, leave a bloodline! ”
When Emperor Long An heard this, his expression was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Xuan! ”
The chamberlain went out and returned in a short time, taking the messenger with him, Dai Quan hurriedly took the letter barrel from the messenger's hand, and after checking the sealed lacquer, he looked at Emperor Long An and nodded.
Emperor Long An raised his chin and said loudly: "Disassemble!" ”
After Dai Quan opened it, he took out the letterhead and handed it to Emperor Long An.
Emperor Long An opened it and looked at it, and let out a surprised "um", but he didn't tell Dou Xian what he was "um".
He first glanced at the ten lines, and his eyes suddenly widened, as if he couldn't believe it.
Immediately, I read it carefully again, and again and again......
Dou Xian and the others were anxious, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what did Lord Lin say?" ”
The dull and resentful look on Emperor Long An's face had long been swept away, but he didn't answer, but raised his head and laughed:
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
Dou Xian: "......"
