Chapter 258: Dispute in Front of the Palace (I)
Wang Zhen was frightened and clever, thinking to himself that I didn't do anything wrong, why did Your Majesty target me?
He didn't know that although he didn't do anything wrong, Hou Shigui did wrong.
Yang He sent Hou Shigui south just to investigate the case, find out the facts of the case, and then return to Chu Jing to report to himself, don't cause any trouble during the period!
But the Xiling erection is good, and the trouble is known all over the city when the case is investigated, and even sent Ti to catch Yu Wenhao in broad daylight.
Yuwenjia knew that Yuwenhao and his guards were arrested, and they thought that the secret could no longer be kept, and it would be strange if they didn't rebel!
This Xiling erector, investigating the case actually caused me to cause such a mess!
Now in the cold winter of Layue, he has to transfer troops to Xiaoping to quell the chaos, how can Yang He not be angry? How can you not be annoyed?
If it weren't for the face of the 20 million taels of silver sent by this shaft before, Yang He would probably have ordered all the assets and family members of the shaft in Beijing to be checked on the spot.
Then it was announced that Hou Shigui was a rebellious minister and thief to quell the Xiaoping turmoil/turmoil, and then settle accounts with the Yuwen family.
But fortunately, the money he sent solved my urgent need, and this son has a lot of money, if he can save it, he should save it.
But when you are annoyed, you have to find someone to vent to, right?
It just so happened that Wang Zhen, the friend of this erection, was by his side, and Yang He, as the emperor, how could he not know what Wang Zhen and Hou Shigui did in private?
Although the palace people broke the rules by the ministers of personal friendship, what they wanted was nothing more than money.
Moreover, the transaction between the two can also make the stinky inner prisoners in the palace smell better, Yang He is unwilling to return to the days when the palace is full of fishy smells.
And his concubines use those perfumes, and they are also charming.
So Yang He turned a blind eye to this.
But now, he is angry in his heart, but Hou Shigui is not there, so he can only take Wang Zhen, the unlucky bastard.
Wang Zhen promised, walked to the front of the hall and picked up the piece that fell on the ground, calmed down, and told himself in his heart: No matter what happens, you must be calm...... Calm down......
Then he began to read according to the music:
"When the minister heard that the Yuwen family was so insatiable, he was shocked and didn't dare to ......"
Thinking that the private army of the Yuwen family and the Southern Expeditionary Army were combined together, and after besieging the Qinggang Mansion, Wang Zhen took a look at His Majesty.
I saw that His Majesty's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water.
Although the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, Wang Zhen was even more afraid that he would stutter or pause, and end up with the inner prison just now, so he had to continue to read:
"The minister sent Xiling Lu Xing'an to lead the cavalry out of the city to attack the thief, the first battle was a great victory, three hundred cavalry, like three hundred divine soldiers, the thief could not be stopped.
Fight again, the thieves wait for the city, and I can't fight the thieves, and the city is in danger.
Lu Xing'an led the cavalry to hit the army under the thief city, and fought to the last horseman, and the thieves fled, and then solved the crisis, and the minister persuaded ......"
Hou Shigui's piece of music was written like this because he wanted to invite credit for Lu Xing'an and the three hundred horsemen.
Although the people are dead, their families are still there, and Hou Shigui wants to provide some benefits for their families.
No, after listening to this paragraph, Yang He's gloomy expression on his face eased slightly, and he secretly said in his heart:
There are still loyal ministers in this world, but it's a pity that the three hundred horsemen and the young man named Lu Xing'an.
Just when Yang Hezheng felt that his loyal and brave soldiers died on the battlefield and were consumed in infighting.
Wang Zhen has recited:
"Chen Xingye led the defenders and the Southern Expeditionary Army to join forces, and entered the camp of the thieves, and at the end of the thieves' strong crossbows, they still resisted stubbornly, and the six thousand thieves have all been condemned, and the rebellion of filial piety is peaceful."
After reciting the chapter, Wang Zhen was overjoyed, he didn't expect that Hou Gongzi with only 2,000 guards would be able to put down the Xiaoping Rebellion!
hurriedly reported the good news:
"Your Majesty, this is God bless Da Chu, God bless Your Majesty!"
didn't expect his statement to be a hot face on a cold ass.
Yang He sat on the dragon chair, his face was even more gloomy, thinking that this shaft had also learned to make false reports!
A mere letter from Yu Wenhao can make the Southern Expeditionary Army defect?
With two thousand guards, you can put down this chaos that is about to sweep the entire Xiaoping?
When I'm a three-year-old kid?!
"Order the forbidden army to detain all the members of the Yuwen family."
Yang He said coldly, then got up and left the main hall.
Early the next morning, as the news of the Yuwen family's rebellion spread, the entire early dynasty was already noisy:
"Your Majesty, please behead Hou Shigui to quell the rebellion!"
"Please behead Hou Shigui to appease people's hearts!"
Seeing His Royal Highness's ministers speaking in unison, how could Yang He not know that this was probably something they had already discussed?
With such an opportunity to get rid of Hou Shigui, how could these people give up?
So Yang He glanced at the newly appointed head of the household department, Li Yuan.
Li Yuan immediately came out and scolded:
"Humph! Not to mention that Hou Commander found out the heinous crimes of the Yuwen family, he was a meritorious minister.
Just say that the commander Hou is now trapped in Qinggang and surrounded by rebel regiments, at this time, you don't want to appease the commander, but you still want to ask Your Majesty to behead him?
What are the intentions of the two of you?!
Isn't it a big joke not to kill the rebels, but to kill those loyal ministers who enforce the law impartially and the country?! ”
Although Li Yuan is the head of the household, he is a person from Yang He after all.
In this court, he is an out-and-out outlier.
Even if he could say it again, in the face of the offensive of the various clans, he was still defeated.
"Your Majesty, the commander of the Hou envoy acted Meng Lang, and his eyes were lawless, and the old minister thought that he was not suitable to serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guard again."
Just when the ministers and workers had different opinions, Su An, the right prime minister, came out and decided with a word.
The rest of the ministers all followed:
"Minister, second!"
Li Yuan snorted coldly and said:
"Commander Hou has made outstanding contributions, why is he not suitable to be a commander?"
Su An didn't even look at him, but Cui Yu, the secretary of the ministry, shook the two white mustaches on his lips, and said:
"Credit? Li Shangshu's words are a little insincere, right?
Before Commander Hou took office, he was just the head of the branch of the household department, and he was an official of the nine grades.
When he was in charge, how come I didn't hear about any credit?
If Li Shangshu knows, he might as well talk to the old man? ”
Of course, there is merit, he exposed the corruption case to His Majesty!
Li Yuan said so in his heart, but he also knew that His Majesty had taken advantage of this to reach some unknown agreements with the Ministry of Rites.
Naturally, this major corruption case has not been exposed.
Seeing Li Yuan's speech, Cui Yu pressed step by step, and asked one after another:
"Since Commander Zai Hou took office, in addition to persecuting his colleagues and wantonly arresting Beijing officials, what else has he done for the country and the people, which is worthy of being called a credit?"
Speaking of this, Li Yuan shouted in his heart:
The Beijing officials arrested by Hou Shigui were all criminals who had committed crimes and bent the law for bribes.
Most of them are officials of my household department.
His Majesty wants to clean the household department, and Hou Shigui can only cooperate with His Majesty to clean those people.
It's just that this matter is not good to talk about on the bright side after all, so Li Yuan was said by Cui Yu to have nothing to say.
