Chapter 724: Helpless
"Fang Youqun is guilty, and it is a capital crime, which cannot be denied in any way. As the commander of an army, it is his duty to defend the land and defend the people, and if the strength is invincible and the battle is lost, there are still extenuating circumstances. can give up the land, but it is absolutely unforgiving. ”
"Colleagues, if you say that you want to kill the people with the anger of the people, this king thinks this is reasonable, but this is not enough!"
At the end of the words, the volume of Mo Bai's voice increased suddenly, and the momentum of the whole person also soared suddenly.
I saw that he suddenly turned around, facing the ministers, his murderous aura rose to the sky, and his voice was used to cultivate, and everyone in the hall could hear it clearly.
"As the commander of the First Army, and the most prestigious Dinghai Divine Needle in my Great Xia Army, he gave up his land to the Qiman, what a sensational thing? Such a big crime, can Fang Youqun bear it alone? ”
"According to this king, this case should be strictly investigated, thoroughly investigated, and investigated to the end, but all those involved in the case will be decided, otherwise, why are the civilians angry, if not, how can the army be uplifted?"
The hall was silent, and everyone was under the murderous aura of King Ming, and they only felt bad in their hearts.
Who is a fool here, what King Ming means, is by no means simple, his so-called investigation to the end does not seem to be limited to the army.
Even Hu Qingyan's eyelids couldn't help but jump slightly, but he didn't speak.
Instead, Zhang Bangli frowned and asked, "What does Your Highness mean by the so-called investigation?" ”
Mo Bai turned around abruptly and looked directly at Zhang Bangli: "Fang Youqun's withdrawal of troops is the end, but why did the strongest commander in the army come to the step of taking the initiative to withdraw his troops?" Is it his personal fault, or is there something else? ”
Speaking of this, Mo Bai's eyes looked at everyone again, but his finger pointed at Qin Hong, and said: "Just as you want to hold Qin Hong accountable, Fang Youqun lost northern Jiangsu, and Qin Hong, as the Minister of Military Aircraft, will not be able to escape the responsibility." ”
After that, Mo Bai pointed to the household officials again: "But in addition to Qin Hong, we also have to check whether the U household department has a good supply of money, food and materials in the army, and whether it is due to the lack of money, food and materials that Fang Youqun is unable to fight again." ”
He also pointed to the Ministry of Industry: "Whether the supply of weapons in the army is in place, whether the supply will be insufficient, or even shoddy, resulting in the inability to fight again." ”
"Did the military department respond to the army's request for help in a timely manner and make arrangements in place?"
Almost every time he looked at a place, the officials of the department immediately oozed cold sweat, and their faces turned pale.
No one dared to meet his gaze, Mo Bai said at the end, his voice was cold and solemn: "The people's grievances are boiling, our country should set up a heavy ceremony, we should kill the head, we should take the house, we should exterminate the family, how can we talk about the prestige of the country?" If not, how can we prevent such evil from happening again? ”
In the end, Mo Bai turned around and knelt down on one knee at Lao Jiu: "Your Majesty, the minister will take a leave of absence on the same day to perform the duties of supervising the army, and I am willing to ask Your Majesty for permission to review this case." ”
……………………
……
The court was dispersed.
The officials quickly returned home.
After a while, everything about the court meeting came out.
Beijing was soon boiling, and many people in the restaurants and tea shops had tears in their eyes and applauded the table.
"Great, Your Majesty Shengming, with King Ming leading this case, Fang Youqun, a thief who misled the country, will definitely be beheaded!"
"That's right, the banner is a small country, how dare ants swallow elephants, it's not that there are many mediocre people in the court, the king of Ming has always been upright, and this time he will definitely be able to sweep away these corrupt officials and corrupt officials."
"King Ming's move is reasonable, Fang Youqun dares to flee from the battle, it must be in the middle of the court There is a backstage, Fang dares to do this, except for Fang Youqun, but the symptoms are cured, only by pulling out all these moths, can our country have hope."
"Rest assured, rest assured, no matter how high the background is, you can't escape the sword of King Ming, even the real people of the dynasty dare to kill, there is no one in the world who King Ming does not dare to punish crimes."
The discussion in Beijing is peaceful in an instant, this is the power of fame.
If it were a different person, it would never be possible for people to accept it so quickly.
But King Ming's prestige has long been famous, he dares to kill the banner barbarians, dare to kill real people, and there are even rumors that he even dares to contradict the first emperor, and the people are willing to believe such a person.
The mansions of the officials in Beijing were clean, and those people with lofty ideals who were entangled in the mansions and did not leave finally stopped bothering them, got satisfactory results, and only sat and waited for the following.
It's just that many officials don't have any joy, but they are like mourning, and King Ming is obviously going to set off a big case.
Whether it is the military department, the household department, or even the official department, there are people who are frightened and only feel that the wind and rain are coming.
In the Ming Palace, Mo Bai, who had just returned to the house, had an equally gloomy face.
In the main hall, Lu Xunyi stood under him, and his face was also extremely grim.
"Your Highness, in this way, I'm afraid it's troublesome." Lu Xunyi took a deep breath and looked up at Mo Bai.
Mo Bai shook his head: "Hu Qingyan, this old thing put me together, the situation at that time, only Zhang Bangli alone helped Fang Youqun to speak, in the face of the anger of the group, he alone was powerless to resist, I had no choice, I couldn't control so much at that time, I could only stand up, muddy the water first, and then make a later discussion." ”
"Even if the water is muddy, the key problem is still there, and now the matter in the palace, I'm afraid that it has been spread, and now the people of the world are waiting for you to take down the head of the group of people." Lu Xunyi's voice was bitter.
"If you really go to get Fang Youqun's head, don't you say how the Northern Soviet Army will react, just say that other military commanders are only afraid that they will also be cold, if it is good, they will stay away from us in the future, if it is not good, I am afraid that they will hate us."
Mo Bai's face became more and more ugly, how did he not know that he was sitting on wax.
Lu Xunyi smiled bitterly and continued: "If we let Fang Youqun go, our Ming Wangfu has finally managed to the majesty it has now, and it can be regarded as completely ruined, Lin Huayao and others will inevitably take advantage of the topic to play and detain Fang Youqun's backstage on our heads." ”
Mo Bai raised his hand to stop him from continuing.
These things, there is no need for Lu Xunyi to say these things, how can he not be clear, and after pondering for a while: "In today's situation, if you want to save Fang Youqun's life, the only way is this, I am the chief judge, at least I still have the initiative." This matter can be used, what I can do is to delay Fang Youqun, and what he will end up with depends on himself. ”
"What does Your Highness mean?" Lu Xunyi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I will definitely leave for northern Jiangsu within ten days, if you can fight a tough battle that everyone in the world can praise, it will not be a big problem." Mo Bai frowned.
Lu Xunyi understood, and without delay, he immediately stood up: "I'll send a letter to Du Juan." ”
"No!" Mo Bai raised his hand: "Now countless pairs of eyes are staring at us, don't make any superfluous movements, be cautious, so as not to give someone a handle, the news will soon reach the cuckoo, I know what to do in detail." ”
Lu Xunyi was actually a little uneasy, but seeing that Mo Bai believed in Du Juan so much, he couldn't refute it face-to-face.
"Since the words have already been spoken, let's set up the platform first, and before Fang Youqun, take down a few heads first, stabilize the emotions of the people, and just take this opportunity to eliminate some moths." Mo Bai picked up the teacup and said in a deep voice.
Lu Xunyi smiled bitterly again: "It's not difficult to kill people, I'm afraid it's not easy to find evidence, our foundation in the DPRK is too shallow, there are few people who can use it, and under the protection of officials and officials, it is difficult for us to make a difference." ”
Mo Bai glanced at him: "Didn't you always want the Ming Palace's involvement in the court?" Isn't this a great opportunity, why do you feel so difficult when things come to an end? ”
Lu Xunyi's face was suddenly embarrassed, so he had to stand up and say goodbye.
It's not difficult to say, if Hu Qingyan is willing to cooperate, it will be simple.
But whether it is Lu Xunyi or Mo Bai, they don't expect much from Hu Qingyan, and today Hu Qingyan is bold enough to put him together, which can be regarded as a lesson for Mo Bai.
Before he went out, a person came to the door, it was Ah Jiu.
"Sixth Master, Lord Qin's mansion has sent someone." Ah Jiu reported.
Mo Bai and Lu Xunyi glanced at each other, Lu Xunyi turned his head and asked, "Qin Hong?" ”
Ah Jiu nodded, and said, "I also dragged a cart of gifts." ”
"What the hell is this Qin Hong?" Mo Bai frowned.
Lu Xunyi was not surprised, and said: "It's not surprising, today, if His Highness hadn't stood up, he would have been stripped of his official position and imprisoned now, His Highness could be regarded as having rescued him, and it was reasonable for him to come to give gifts and thanks." ”
"At the time of the question, I was now in the name of the chief judge, although it may not be judged on his head, and he is now pulling me to give gifts, and the impact is not good!" Mo Bai shook his head and frowned.
Lu Xunyi nodded, looked at Ah Jiu, and said, "Just say that Your Highness is busy and has no time to meet him." ”
"What about gifts?" Ah Jiu asked.
Lu Xunyi thought for a while and said to Mo Bai: "You can accept it or not!" ”
Mo Bai was silent, waiting for the following.
Lu Xunyi said in a deep voice: "If you don't accept it, Your Highness has already said it, now accepting gifts will have a bad impact, and if you don't do it, there will be many officials who will follow suit, and the reputation of the Ming Wangfu will definitely not be good." ”
"But there are also benefits to accepting, His Royal Highness is now in the court, we are going to run the court after all, as the so-called local customs, today His Royal Highness received this gift, it is regarded as stepping into the official door, and the ministers in the court, it is like-minded since then, and embarked on a road. We opened the door, and in the future, there will inevitably be people who come to the door to steal the effect. ”
Lu Xunyi was not trained in vain in Beijing, and now this strategist can be regarded as qualified.
Mo Bai looked at Lu Xunyi, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Ah Jiudao: "There should be two more gentlemen in our house, right?" ”
"Sir?" Ah Jiu was stunned.
Lu Xunyi was also a little confused, but Ah Jiu reacted first: "Your Highness is talking about Mr. Fang Shan and Mr. Jiang Ling." ”
As soon as Ah Jiuyi spoke, Lu Xunyi also remembered that these two former strategists in the prince's mansion were desperate and surrendered to the Ming Prince's Mansion.
"That's right, they've been in the house for a while, so it's time to find something for them to do." Mo Bai nodded and said, "Since this gift is not easy to receive, and it is not easy not to accept it, then we should not accept it in the Ming Palace."
Lu Xunyi comprehended, this meant that he could turn his hand and let the two of them collect it, got up and arched his hand: "Yes, I will explain to the two of them." ”
"Why do you have to explain anything, if you can't do this thing, these two gentlemen are afraid that they will be in vain." Mo Bai smiled and waved his hand.
Lu Xunyi turned to leave, Mo Bai remembered one more thing, and said: "Wait, it's very strange that Hu Qingyan suddenly wants to move Qin Hong, when Qin Hong was originally set to take the throne, Hu Qingyan didn't have an opinion, and now he suddenly takes action against him, there must be something boring, you check it." ”
"Yes!"
After the two of them left, Mo Bai's heart was on fire, but he didn't know where to send it.
Hu Qingyan, this old thing, put him together, he protected Qin Hong today, and expanded the incident, which was also a warning to Hu Qingyan.
Even so, he still felt that it was not enough, looking at the majesty of his sole charge of the dynasty today, Hu Qingyan seemed to be really a little inflated.
Mo Bai felt that Lu Xunyi's previous worries were justified, and he had to find a way to teach Hu Qingyan a lesson.
