At first, Zhao Yu was a little worried that Chen Yizhong would find out about some 'ugly things' he had done, so that he would expose them in public, making it difficult for him to explain, so he was even ready to cheat and give them a death denial. But after reading the complaint against himself, he calmed down, those so-called crimes are basically not related to himself, and it is purely a dream to try to bring himself down with these fictitious and far-fetched things, and even if it is true, what can he do?

"If anyone thinks I have done it, please allow me to defend myself and confront him. asked the Queen Mother and Lu Xiang to preside, and let the ministers and officials testify. If I have ever changed it, if I have violated the laws of the country and the rules of the country, I should abdicate and give way to the virtuous! Zhao Yu glanced at the ministers in the palace and said.

"Your Majesty, how can you surrender your identity and confront them in front of you!" Wen Tianxiang was the first to speak.

"The saint has a cloud: the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Although I am an emperor, how can I be without fault if I am not a sage, and I should be devoted to admonishing myself to correct myself. If I am the emperor and make the heavens angry and resentful, why should I covet this position, but I will never tolerate the slander and slander of others, and I should distinguish clearly. Zhao Hao smiled.

"What Your Majesty said is very true, for the monarch, you must have the courage to take responsibility and face the accusations of your subordinates!" At this time, you should go out of the strict line and bow upwards.

"The minister also seconded it!" At this time, Liu Huang also came out of Shi Lidao.

"Two governors, Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, how can you be questioned in court." Zhang Shijie was unhappy and came out.

"Exactly, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, above all the peoples, it is disrespectful for them to gather to criticize Your Majesty, and they should be punished by Yousi!" Jiang Xuan came out of the queue.

"I think Your Majesty should defend himself, otherwise it will make the criticism even worse!" Deng Guangjian also came out at this moment.

"Your Majesty, the people who wrote outside the palace have made a noise, and the imperial guards have been assembled, so please decide what to do with it!" At this time, Ni Liang entered the hall and said. When everyone saw his fierce appearance, they were afraid that the little emperor would go out and chop up those people with a look.

"The guards should be vigilant and should not take drastic actions." Zhao Yu ordered, he knew that these people are just like those modern 'troublemakers', they want you to do it, hoping that you will create bloodshed, and use the mentality of onlookers to sympathize with the weak to incite more people to join them, strengthen their own momentum, expand their influence and cause greater group incidents. And if you put yourself in passivity, you will often end up either with a bloody crackdown or with a compromise.

"Subordinates obey!" Ni Liang obeyed the order and went down to the palace with a straight face, obviously a little dissatisfied with the little emperor's 'weakness'. But the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, if the little emperor ordered the troops, I am afraid that no one in the palace could stop it.

"Empress Dowager, I ask that the court meeting be changed to Taihemen, and the imperial gate will listen to the government, please allow the Empress Dowager!" Zhao Yu got up and saluted behind the curtain.

"Accurate!" Empress Dowager Yang spoke up.

"The ministers move to the Chengqian Gate, and the Imperial Gate listens to the government!" When Wang De saw the approval of the Queen Mother, he immediately proclaimed loudly.

"The ministers will obey the decree!" Lu Xiufu went out to salute Shang, and then led the ministers out of the palace, rearranged the shifts, and arranged the venue.

There was a precedent in the Han and Tang dynasties, and it was also a form of government affairs handled by the emperors who were more accomplished in the past dynasties. It is generally held at the middle gate between the former dynasty and the inner court, so it becomes the imperial court, but it is not immutable, and it mainly depends on the whereabouts of the emperor. At that time, there will be a throne in the foyer, and the emperor will personally preside over the court meeting, listen to the reports or speeches of the cabinet and ministers of various ministries, discuss and make decisions, issue edicts, and implement them.

What is the advantage of the emperor personally presiding over the courtiers' councils? It can prevent the dictatorship of relatives, eunuchs, ministers, clans, and harems, and many of the dictatorships of relatives in history, the dictatorship of eunuchs, the dictatorship of ministers, the dictatorship of the clan, and the chaos of the harem are all because the emperor does not personally preside over the court meeting. However, the emperors of the Song Dynasty were very lazy, thinking that it was held in a semi-open air, hot in summer and cold in winter, how hard it was to stay for half a day!

Therefore, the emperor of the Song Dynasty did not like the early dynasty of this situation, and this imperial gate listened to the government in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and everyone should understand that the court meeting was not held in the main hall, but in the city gate hole. However, Zhao Yu thinks that Kangxi has not been in the dynasty for fifty years, no matter the wind, rain, cold or heat, it is miserable enough to sit in the doorway in the morning and discuss politics with the ministers, if it is not in the palace, I am afraid that the beggars are discussing where to eat!

This time, Zhao Yu proposed to listen to the government at the imperial gate, which was essentially beyond the scope, more like a public trial, and he was one of the defendants. Of course, there is his helplessness in doing this, and it is also to take this opportunity to completely defeat Chen Yizhong and make him lose the opportunity to make a comeback, which is conducive to the stability of the imperial court, and eliminates the black sheep, so that his position is more stable.

'Dong Dong ......' remembered that Zhao Yu helped the Queen Mother to go down to the palace. At this moment, the ministers have finished their shifts, from the left and right sides of the Chengqian Gate out of the door on both sides, they are under the guidance of the inner servants in the hall to ascend to the seat, the pure road whip is thrown up, and the ministers and hundreds of officials pay a big salute. At this time, although it is transferred to the outside of the palace, the court ceremony can not be expensed, there is a patrol of the palace and the imperial history is staring at it, and the ministers are not allowed to make noise, whisper, cough, spit, etc., otherwise they will be severely dealt with with with faux pas.

Because someone impeached himself today, Zhao Yu asked the Queen Mother to remove the curtain and ascend to the throne to listen to the government in person, while he stood beside the Queen Mother, and Ni Liang stood behind him with a sword and armor. Looking at the solemnity of the ministers on both sides, Chen Dun led the guard battalion to set up a cordon, and strictly guarded the gate of the outer palace, separating the crowd of people who beat the drum and wrote the book, so as to prevent anyone from rushing up and disturbing the holy car. Chen Yizhong and his group also knew the rules, standing outside with their hands down, the palace gate was not closed, and a crowd gathered outside to look in front of the palace.

"The grass people and others are presented to the Queen Mother with a book of ten thousand words!" As soon as this side was finished, more than a dozen people rushed out of the crowd where His Highness was writing, and they fell to the ground and kowtowed and shouted.

"Bring it on!" Lu Xiufu commanded.

"Grass people Guo Fu on behalf of tens of thousands of people in Jiangnan implore the Queen Mother to allow former Prime Minister Chen Yizhong to return to the dynasty to govern!" A group of people wanted to go to the temple, but they were stopped by Chen Dun, and only one person was allowed to step forward, holding the scroll in both hands and kneeling down to salute.

"Please the Queen Mother!" Wang Dexia took the scroll and presented it to the Queen Mother.

"Don't look at the mourning family, give it to Your Majesty!" Empress Dowager Yang waved her hand, but asked her to forward it to the little emperor.

"Oh, where does Chen Yizhong want to return to the court, he wants to be a powerful minister!" Zhao Yu read the ten lines at a glance, and said softly to the Queen Mother.

"Your Majesty, along the way, the mourning family has repeatedly encountered people stopping and driving the book of the people, either praising or belittling Your Majesty, or touting it." Empress Dowager Yang snorted coldly and said, "He abandoned the orphans and widows of the mourning family at a critical moment, and now he wants to meddle in the royal abolition, and a group of people recommend him as a state affair of Pingzhang, is it really easy for us to be bullied?" Rokuro let go and do it, everything is decided by the mourning family. ”

"Thank your mother, if you have your mother in charge, your sons will not be afraid!" Zhao Yu was secretly happy in his heart when he heard this, with the Queen Mother on his side, Chen Yizhong would not be able to turn the sky even if he was clever. And the world often says that Empress Dowager Yang is a woman, and she is not good at handling court politics, but she hands over the military and political power to a child. But in his opinion, Empress Dowager Yang is a smart person, and she knows that she is not good at handling government affairs, but he finds that he is a genius, and he dares to let him toss, which can be regarded as knowing people and being good at his duties, and has been standing behind him to support him at critical moments, this time it is still the case, which makes him unable not to be moved.

"Your Majesty, our mother and son have relied on each other for their lives over the years, and it is because we have seen that you are a child who endures humiliation and burdens, and conscientiously governs Qiongzhou in an orderly manner, and trains it into an army of tigers and wolves, so that we have the day to return to the old capital today. Besides, Your Majesty has always behaved in a proper manner, but if the mourning family thinks that even if they do something wrong in order to recover their homeland, the ancestors and ancestors will forgive the mourning family for indulgence. Empress Dowager Yang took the little emperor's hand and whispered.

"The queen mother, the sons are presumptuous!" Zhao Yu said.

"Wenxiang, Your Majesty thinks that there are many untruths listed in the statement, so you want to confront it and let the ministers testify, and let the Qing family preside over it!" Empress Dowager Yang gently patted Zhao Yu's hand and said to Wen Tianxiang.

"Command!" Wen Tianxiang stepped forward to give a salute and receive the order, turned around and said, "The Xuangu person stepped forward, and His Majesty also moved!" ”

Zhao Hao smiled and moved down the steps, thinking to himself what the fuck is going on, he will become a defendant now, Wen Tianxiang is really businesslike! Of course, his identity is special, and someone sent him a chair, and Ni Liang stood behind him inch by inch. Looking at Chen Yizhong dressed in white and wearing a scarf on his head, they haven't seen each other for ten years, but they are no longer the commanding prime minister of the past, but Bai Ding, who has no official position and no position. I don't know how he felt when he looked at his former colleagues on the left and right.

"The grass people see the Queen Mother, Your Majesty!" Chen Yizhong was able to see and not worship in the palace back then, but now he still has to pay respects in a proper manner.

"Let's get flat!" Empress Dowager Yang didn't move her body for a moment, and said coldly.

"The grass people have seen the right phase!" There were no words of greeting, and Chen Yi felt a chill in the center, obviously the queen mother was still suspicious of what she did back then. After saluting again, he turned around and saluted Wen Tianxiang.

"Gong Chen doesn't have to be polite!" Wen Tianxiang took a step back and arched his hand, "Gong Chen, today you beat the drum on the Empress Dowager, pointing out the various mistakes of Your Majesty in the country, Your Majesty wants to confront you in the palace, please answer truthfully." ”

"The grass people understand that there is no lie!" Chen Yizhong said.

"Okay, Duke Chen said that when His Majesty was the king, he went to Qiongzhou to be self-reliant, and he tried to hold Emperor Jingyan hostage. Your Majesty thinks it's true? Wen Tianxiang turned to the little emperor and asked.

"I went to Qiongzhou to find a foothold for the dynasty, just in case, and the opening of Qiongzhou is also the queen mother and the imperial brother Yu Zhun, you were in charge of the government at that time, and the reasons before and after should also be known." Zhao Yu said to Chen Yizhong, "As for my attempt to hold Emperor Jingyan hostage, where do I start? At that time, the Xing Dynasty was defeated and pursued by the enemy general Liu Shen's army, and I personally led the Qiongzhou army to defeat Liu Shen, welcomed the Queen Mother and the imperial brother to the island, and tried to build a palace to prepare for resettlement, but you refused to go to the island and left suddenly in the middle of the night, but there was a suspicion of holding the Queen Mother and Emperor Jingyan hostage! ”

"Your Majesty, don't argue, why did you arrange a large army to monitor Qiongzhou when the fleet of the Dynasty was docked in Qiongzhou? Isn't building a palace meant to be self-reliant? I evacuated because I was worried. Chen Yizhong said.

"Hehe, there were 200,000 soldiers in the Xingchao at that time, and the Qiongzhou army was less than 30,000 even counting the fire army that cooked rice, so how could it threaten the Xingchao? The deployment of troops is nothing more than a vigilant force to prevent the enemy's sneak attack. The construction of the palace was made clear as early as the beginning, how to guess! Zhao Hao smiled.

"What Your Majesty said is right, if it weren't for the assistance of Your Majesty in the Battle of Qizhouyang, Xing Dynasty would have been defeated long ago. Chen Gong also experienced this matter, how could he say such a thing? Chen Zhongwei couldn't listen to it anymore and said.

What Chen Shangshu said is that when he first went to Qiongzhou, His Majesty repeatedly invited the Queen Mother and Emperor Jingyan to go to the island, but you repeatedly refused. If Your Majesty wants to stand on your own, you can watch the Xing Dynasty be defeated by Liu Shen, why bother to lead the army to intercept the Yuan army, do you know that Your Majesty almost lost his life in Qizhou Ocean in order to drag the enemy's single boat into the enemy formation! Xu Zongren said angrily.

"This ......" The two former colleagues revealed the truth at that time, which made Chen Yizhong a little at a loss.

"Hmph, you underestimate our Shuaifu army too much, we can defeat Liu Shen at sea, but why are we afraid of your remnants of the army. If Your Majesty wanted to be the emperor at that time, you would be buried in the sea with a single order, so why wait for you to go to the island! Ni Liang, who was standing behind Zhao Hao, said coldly, "On that day, you repeatedly embarrassed Your Majesty and the Sprinkle family, if you were a mortal enemy, you would have been asked to feed the fish." ”

"Don't be rude!" Zhao Yu raised his hand to stop Ni Liangdao.

"Gong Chen, do you still have anything to discern about this matter?" Wen Tianxiang looked at Chen Yizhong and asked.

"I was too cautious at the time and misunderstood Your Majesty!" Chen Yizhong sighed lightly and said, he knew that if he continued to talk about it, it would be even more detrimental to himself, so he simply let this section go. But at the beginning, I touched a gray nose, and I was still a little depressed.

"Since this matter is all your groundless speculation, it is pure slander!" Wen Tianxiang said solemnly.

"Wenxiang, I have already said that the situation at that time was compelling, and I had to be careful, not intentionally!" Chen Yizhong knew that just slandering the saint was enough to drink a pot of his own, so he hurriedly argued.

"Since it's an unintentional mistake, let's hold it down for the time being!" Wen Tianxiang saw that the little emperor was silent, and knew what he meant, and continued, "Your Majesty, it is stated that after the death of Emperor Jingyan, His Majesty colluded with the forbidden army to control Jiang Cheng and coerce the Queen Mother and the ministers to make him emperor by force, is there such a thing?" ”

"Nonsense!" Without waiting for the little emperor to speak, Empress Dowager Yang preemptively said, "At that time, the first emperor stationed in Jinzhou was seriously ill, and His Majesty went to visit, and there was only a team of guards by his side. And the Jiang family is a loyal martyr, how could they do anything to coerce the mourning family and the ministers? Thou hast already gone away to occupy the city, how can thou know the truth of the day, and such vain words can also be gabbled in the court! ”
