Chapter 545: Tongue Battle
Yi thought that he would have to wait for a long time, after all, the former Prime Minister Guo Mushan was named a national thief by the imperial court, and it was spread all over the world, and it was another matter whether Ming Hou Mujing was accepted by the imperial court, and he could not bear to wait.
But he didn't expect to be called so soon, and what he didn't expect was that he would be summoned at the court meeting today.
This was unexpected.
If the Son of Heaven was recruited alone, he was still confident that he would be able to persuade the Son of Heaven to come around the powerful minister Dong Zhuo and let the imperial court accept the Ming Marquis to submit to him, but now, in front of the civil and military officials, it would be much more difficult to refute the name of the Mu family.
He was going to court today, and he wore an envoy's robe early in the morning and waited outside the noon gate of Weiyang Palace.
"Biography, the Marquis of Ming envoys to the court!"
When the layers of voices came out, Yi Yuan trembled, and hurriedly tidied up his robe, his face was straight, his expression was solemn, and his face was sacred.
"Envoy Yi, Your Majesty has summoned, and you will go to the pilgrimage with the slave and maid!" A little eunuch rose up to lead the way.
"Go!"
Yi Zhi followed closely behind, stepped in, and when he entered the palace, he did not look at the young man on the dragon chair for the first time, but met a series of scrutinizing eyes.
"Minister, the little official of the Ming Marquis Mansion, meet Your Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!" Yi Ji settled his mind and bowed his head.
"Your name is I?"
The Son of Heaven raised his head, his eyes were like lightning, and after glancing at his nationality, he spoke calmly.
"Xiao Chen exactly!"
Yi nodded, and then his eyes were raised slightly, his eyes skimmed over it, and he quickly looked at the young man who was kneeling on the dragon chair, majestic in the world.
For this son of heaven, he is famous a lot, but it is the first time to face the saint.
His first impression was that he was an innocent boy.
But he didn't dare to treat this young man as an ordinary young man, after all, this was the son of heaven who dared to kill his eldest brother, slaughter his mother-in-law, lead the soldiers of Xiliang, overthrow the regime held by the former Xiangguo, and single-handedly established the current Chuping regime.
He didn't dare to underestimate this son of heaven who was at the age of a weak crown and established the Chang'an court like a puppet.
"If I remember correctly, the fiefdom of the Ming Marquis Mansion is in Nanyang, the Zongfu has rules, and the king of the fiefdom cannot leave the fiefdom without the order of the imperial court, and now the Ming Marquis not only left Nanyang, but also led the army into the Han Dynasty, is he going to oppose the imperial court?" The young man directly buttoned up his hat.
The eyes of the ministers suddenly looked at Yi Ji.
They wanted to see how this Yi nationality responded, at first they didn't take this young envoy seriously, but after seeing him go to court, he was able to calm down quickly, which made people look up to him, after all, in front of everyone, people who can calm down have a good mentality.
"Your Majesty, this is not the fault of the Marquis of Ming!"
After Yi settled down, his thoughts turned quickly, and when he heard the trouble of the young son of heaven, he thought about it before he opened his mouth to retort: "Ming Hou led the army into Hanzhong, but at the invitation of Su Xin, the descendant of Su Gu in Hanzhong in the past, went to rebel, the Su family, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, Su Gu Taishou was conscientious and conscientious for the court to shepherd Hanzhong, but was killed by rice thieves, Hanzhong was in chaos, the people were displaced, and the reputation of the court was damaged. ”
What he said was impressive, and it can be said that it is not leaky.
Shouldering the banner of Su Gu, even if he is a minister, he has nothing to say, after all, Su Gu swore to die that he was unwilling to surrender to Liu Yan and keep the name of the court, but he was a loyal minister.
"Since it is to quell the chaos, after the chaos, shouldn't we also leave Hanzhong and return to Nanyang!"
Dong Zhuo suddenly spoke, and his voice was like thunder, as if he had opened it in an instant in the middle of a big bag year.
"I don't know who this is?" Yi Ji pretended to be confused, and just looked at Dong Zhuo lightly.
Above today's court, there are still a few people who can wear armor and go to the court, standing next to the Son of Heaven, but only one person.
Not enough the hatred between the Minghou Mansion and Dong Zhuo poured out the water of the Milky Way above the nine heavens and could not be washed clean, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, Yi thought that this hatred was the hatred of everyone in the Minghou Mansion, the enemy was in front of him, he couldn't speak well, he was the envoy of the Ming Marquis, on behalf of the Ming Marquis, and he couldn't degenerate the demeanor of the Ming Marquis, so he was directly angry.
"Envoy Yi, this is the imperial master, don't be rude!"
Situ Wang Yun said with a smile.
The more he looked at the Yi nationality, the more pleasing it became, the court of Chang'an lost its bloodiness more and more, these days, no one dared to refute Dong Zhuo above the court, which made him very worried, for fear that one day he would not be able to suppress Dong Zhuo's ambition.
Yi Ji asked knowingly, it was really the face of Dong Zhuo face to face.
"It turned out to be Master Taishi!"
Yi Yuan smiled indifferently, not shocked by honor and disgrace, but saluted indifferently: "The minister has lived in the mountains for a long time, and he doesn't know the important ministers of the court, I'm really sorry, and I ask Lord Taishi to forgive me!" ”
"It's okay, you just need to answer the question of this master!"
Dong Zhuo has learned one thing since he entered Luoyang, forbearance, he has a manic temper under the suppression of the huge mountain of Mushan, he has no temper at all, it is because he is tolerant enough that he overturned the Mu regime in one fell swoop, and he was rubbed away by Mushan with a manic temper, and after entering Chang'an, he became more and more calm and wise.
"Master Taishi's question is also very easy to answer!"
Yi Yuan smiled, bowed his hand, and then said: "Ming Hou responded to the name of the Su family, sent troops to Hanzhong, it was for the court to quell the rebellion, and led the order of the court to go, and now he has beheaded the first Zhang Lu of the rice thief, pacified the rebellion in Hanzhong, and returned from retreating, but the soldiers of the court have not been there for a long time, and Hanzhong must not have a guard of the town, we can only guard on behalf of the town, after all, the chaos in Hanzhong has just subsided, and thieves from all sides are endless. How to defend the safety of the people in Hanzhong, the whole of the Marquis of Wuming is loyal to the monarch and patriotic, how can he ignore the safety of the people, so when the prince asked his ministers to come, he once said that as long as the imperial court can enter Hanzhong and garrison Hanzhong, we will immediately retreat to Nanyang! ”
There are two important points in his words.
The civil and military officials in the court can achieve this position, and they are basically not stupid, so they naturally know what the two key points of this sentence are.
First, thieves are endless.
What is a thief?
What is a soldier?
If you come, then they will become thieves and be attacked by thieves, and it will naturally have nothing to do with the Minghou Mansion.
Second, that is, the imperial court soldiers and horses could not enter Hanzhong.
This clearly tells everyone that the soldiers and horses of the Ming Hou Mansion are around, as long as the soldiers and horses of the imperial court dare to enter Hanzhong, come to one, kill one, and never tolerate it, even if they fight to the death of a fish and break the net, they must fight to the death.
"What a rampant envoy!"
Dong Zhuo also understood this, his face suddenly gloomy, his Xiliang army obviously entered Hanzhong, but was driven out, this is a shame, it has already spread all over Chang'an, how many people are secretly discussing him, and at this time he was torn apart and said, clearly slapping him in the face.
Still, he held back his resentment.
At this time, Situ Wang Yun stood up, looked at the young man, and said coldly: "Yi envoy, although the Ming Marquis title, the court has not deprived it, and the clan still has a clan name, but in the past, Mu Yuanzhong disobeyed the court, caused chaos to the court, and killed the first emperor, which is a great disobedience, and his son Mu Jing is the same crime, and now Mu Jing inherits the title, but does not enter the court and receives the crime, this is not the way of the minister, and he sends troops to Hanzhong without authorization, and the crime is added to the crime, how can the court tolerate it!" ”
"Lord Situ, this is very bad!"
Under the repeated refutations of the Yi nationality, it has gradually entered a better situation, and the fear in his heart has gradually disappeared, even in the face of the military officials in the court, he is still calm, hearing Wang Yun's accusation, he is neither humble nor arrogant, the name of the thief is from the Chang'an court, this pass, must be passed.
He talked eloquently: "The mistake of the ancestors in the past, the court has already made a conclusion, the Ming Marquis was recruited for the imperial court, led the army to the princes of Guandong outside the Bishui Pass, in order to protect the peace of the imperial court, fought countless battles, and then returned to Luoyang, smoothed the mistakes of the ancestors, regretted the death of the first emperor, and did his best to help His Majesty ascend the throne, the glorious world, showing the heart of loyalty, is a great merit, returning to Nanyang and living, but also His Majesty's permission, what is wrong, now sending troops to Hanzhong, but also for the sake of the court, to avoid the rebellion in Hanzhong, if you ask the heroes, is not the heart of the people of the world! ”
What is it called to open your eyes and tell nonsense, this is what you are.
This set of rhetoric has been simulated in his mind no less than a hundred times, and along the way he has been thinking about how to whitewash the peace, which is the best rhetoric.
Mushan's merits and demerits are indisputable, Yi Ji perfectly avoided this, and then used another set of rhetoric to give a conclusion about the defeat of Mujing's troops and the escape to the south, don't look at the conclusion that it is just a one-sided word, it really gave the court a step.
No one dares to refute this.
Because when the position of the son itself is not right, killing his mother-in-law and killing his brother, he admits that he is a disvirtuous son of heaven and loses the hearts of the people, and the Xiliang Army and the Mu Army formed an alliance to deal with the Kwantung Coalition Army together, but it is impossible to break the knife in the back.
Then Yi also said to support the Son of Heaven to ascend the throne, this is naturally not the past, but the future, what he means is to convey the meaning of the Ming Hou Mansion, this time the purpose of his coming, is to return to obedience, tell the Son of Heaven, tell the Chang'an court, that is, the Ming Hou Mansion has been clustered when today's son, respect the current court.
It is up to you to accept it and not to be calamitized.
Acceptance is best.
If you don't accept it, the tens of thousands of troops under the command of the Ming Marquis Mansion are not vegetarians, so it's a big deal to turn around and fight again.
Above the court, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the young son of heaven on the dragon chair today, were completely pinched by the extremely scoundrel words of Yi, and under the look of each other, no one opened their mouths to refute.
