Chapter Twenty-Three: The Early Dynasty
Yu Huang saw that he had smashed the wrong person, and he felt a little guilty in his heart, but when he saw that Chu Huailin was still holding his head high, as if he had nothing to do with him, that sense of guilt disappeared.
Suddenly, a clear voice sounded from the temple: "Father, there is no need to be angry."
Of course, it is not that this voice is as good as heaven, but because in this tense atmosphere, someone finally came to the rescue, so this voice is the most beautiful voice they have ever heard in their lifetimes for the ministers present.
Emperor Yu also looked at the person who made the sound, and his face was like frost: "Shanhe, don't worry, I have heard everything about yesterday, and the Protector Army is just for self-protection, and it will not involve you."
Yu Shanhe shook his head with a smile on his face and said, "Father, I didn't want to clarify what I meant, in fact, yesterday's incident was not as serious as my father thought."
Yuhuang tilted his head, frowning and staring at Yushanhe, he didn't want Yushanhe to talk about it anymore, this was a good opportunity to eradicate Yushanhe's henchmen, as long as he grasped it, Yushanhe would be able to rise faster, and then pass Yuhuang's position to him, so that he would have no regrets. Emperor Yu looked serious, stared at him deadly, and motioned for him to shut up.
Yu Shanhe also looked at Yu Huang, but his eyes were full of innocence, as if he didn't understand anything: "Father, the superintendent is only a civilian official, how can he mobilize the forces of the Yulin Army?"
After listening to Yu Shanhe's words, Yu Huang thought that Yu Shanhe just wanted to leave Chu Huailin out, and he thought quickly in his brain.
Regarding the matter of the crown prince, now all the officials have been vaguely divided into two factions, one is to support Yu Qingling as the crown prince, most of these people are some highly respected ministers, it can also be said that they support the former queen Yu.
On the other hand, there are some young officials who were personally promoted by Emperor Yu, and although their number is not large now, they are growing rapidly.
Yu Huang thought that Chu Huailin was a very unstable factor, although he was unparalleled in talent, but he was very uneasy to use, afraid that although he would bite himself hard when he was weak.
He has always been by his side, Yuhuang once thought that he was pulled up by himself, and he must be on his side, but this time Yushanhe's matter, his attitude is resolute, and he resolutely does the opposite of himself.
Emperor Yu had already moved to kill Chu Huailin, he didn't know who Chu Huailin was loyal, according to his observations these days, Emperor Yu thought that Chu Huailin was likely to stand in Yu Qingling's queue.
"No", Emperor Yu muttered to himself, "Chu Huailin is no longer on anyone's side. Emperor Yu had a bold and terrible thought in his heart: "If it is said that he rebelled, it is not impossible to establish himself as the king."
Such a hot potato, although it is a pity to get rid of it, it also eliminates a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Emperor Yu looked at Hayama River with questioning eyes, and Hayama River lowered his head slightly.
"Alas," Emperor Yu sighed deeply, "Is it really as His Highness He said?" Emperor Yu set his eyes on Chu Huailin.
Chu Huailin nodded nonchalantly: "Your Majesty Emperor Yu, such a simple question actually needs to be reminded by His Highness He, can you think of it?"
"It's worthy of Chu Huailin, that's how bold he is." All the ministers thought in their hearts, even Emperor Yu couldn't help but admire a little, the anger that was because of Chu Huailin's arrogance and rudeness just now had disappeared.
Emperor Yu didn't answer Chu Huailin's words, but nodded: "Since that's the case, it's my fault that blames you." I'm old, so it's useless. ”
All the ministers bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune and longevity."
Only Chu Huailin did not follow the ministers and said loudly: "Your Majesty is self-aware."
Yuhuang was not angry, and even showed a smile: "Huailin is telling the truth, although it is a little ugly, it is more true."
The ministers below were much more relaxed when they heard Emperor Yu's words, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively, and everyone praised Chu Huailin: "My lord is so real, we are really ashamed of ourselves."
Chu Huailin didn't care, he just thought it was funny: "It's just to tell the truth, these people can also find so many words to praise me, he finally discovered the power of civil officials: with this group of civil officials, black can also be said to be white, and dead can also be said to be alive."
Just when everyone was laughing, Yu Huang slapped the table in front of him again, and the half of the joy on his face just now seemed to have never appeared, and his face was like frost.
"Yu is stunned, you are guilty!"
A short sentence floated by, but the weight was a thousand gold, and the active atmosphere just now was like half a point of joy on the face of the feather emperor, as if it had never appeared.
There was silence all around, and no one dared to speak, at this time, if an unlucky guy was overheard by Yuhuang, which made Yuhuang feel bad, it was likely that he would immediately accuse you of being a rebel accomplice.
Yu was stunned and knelt on his knees, and his head hit the ground heavily: "It's the minister's fault, it was the minister who single-handedly planned this assassination, and I ask His Majesty Emperor Yu to punish him."
"Since you have admitted it, you will always be punished for doing something wrong." Yu Huang's tone softened and returned to calm.
Yu Qingling and Yu Shanhe both frowned.
Yu Shanhe originally wanted to help Yu Jingzhen get rid of his guilt, but before he could say anything, Yu Jingzhen was in a hurry to confess.
Yu Shanhe shrugged helplessly at Yu Qingling next to him, Yu Qingling knew that he couldn't complain about this matter, it was Yu who was in a hurry to admit his guilt, and Yu Shanhe said it was too late now. So he nodded to him in response.
Yu Qingling hasn't seen Yu Jingling since he was separated from Yu Jingjing at the birthday banquet yesterday, what the hell is he thinking! There was a lot of room for manoeuvre.
Yu Qingling bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, it is really a dereliction of duty for Yu Jingling to fail to control the army as General Yulin, and please remove Your Majesty from the post of General Yulin Yulin."
Yu Qingling said that Yu Jingjing did not control the army well, implying that Yu Jingjing was just confused by people, hoping that this would be a lighter crime.
However, according to what Chu Huailin said to Emperor Yu, Yu Jingzhen should be the one who planned everything.
But Emperor Yu didn't pick out this problem, just followed Yu Qingling's words and said: "Shocked, you are my nephew, but the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, no matter what, you can't get rid of this matter, from today on, remove you from the post of general Yulin, and go to the southeast to serve as the commander of the right-wing army."
Yu Huang's punishment of Yu Jingjing is very reasonable, no one can say anything, even Yu Qingling can't say anything wrong.
After dispersing the early dynasty, Yu Qingling caught up with Yu and stung: "What do you mean, cousin."
Yu Zhenzhen's face was gloomy, and he lowered his head vigorously: "It's nothing, you should be punished for doing something wrong, and it's not a big deal to lose your head, it's okay."
"I'm asking, what do you think, what are you doing this for, you guy has been not afraid of heaven and earth since he was a child, this time to cause trouble......"
Yu was stunned and suddenly smiled: "When did Qingling become so verbose?"
Yu Qingling paused, she had never said so many words in one breath before, was it because she was worried that Yu was stung? It should be, more than ten years of friendship, I have firmly remembered it in my heart.
"I only have two questions, what do you think? Why? Yu Qingling asked.
Yu was stunned and gave a military salute in a dignified manner: "Report to His Royal Highness Ling, the lower official is very unhappy to see that little white face."
Yu Qingling didn't believe it, he understood Yu Jing, he seemed to be very impulsive in doing things, but he always had his own considerations before doing big things, since he didn't want to say it, it was useless to ask hard.
"What's next for you?"
Yu was stunned and replied easily: "Go to the southeast right wing army to serve as the commander, if you have nothing to do, you can sneak to the Terran to have a look, I heard that the Terran is very beautiful!"
"Well, it's good to give yourself a vacation, I'm looking forward to your return to Yudu again, my General Yulin." Yu Qingling gave Yu Jingling a hug.
When Yu was shocked to hear the title of "General Yulin", his face suddenly became solemn.
"By the way, Qingling, I hope you can take over the Yulin Army for the time being, and wait until I come back. The Yulin Army must not fall into the hands of others. ”
"What do you mean?" Yu Qingling's face suddenly became serious, she seemed to have guessed something, but she couldn't believe it.
"Be careful of Chu Huailin, you must be careful." Yu was stunned and did not answer Yu Qingling's question.
Yu Qingling nodded thoughtfully: "I know, this person is not simple."
Yu shook his head, no longer talked about this topic, and changed to a more relaxed expression: "Tomorrow I will leave for the southeast, let's get together at Yinghuan's house this afternoon."
Yu Qingling nodded and said lightly: "Okay." His mind was still thinking about the meaning of what Yu said earlier.
After separating from Yu Jingling on the road, Yu Qingling did not go back to the palace directly, but went to the royal army garrison.
She summoned several royal generals who had always been by her side and trusted very much to the conference room.
There were only a few people sitting in the front of the spacious conference room, Yu Qingling sat in the front and middle, on both sides was his most powerful deputy general-Xuanyu, and on the other side was Wei You, who had been following him from the beginning.
This sudden meeting left the always intelligent Xuanyu confused, and she wondered what kind of thing it was. His eyes looked at Wei You opposite, he still had a stinky face, no expression, his eyebrows were thick, and the word "Chuan" was always wrinkled between his eyebrows.
In his expression, Xuanyu really couldn't get any useful information, and Xuanyu turned his head to Yu Qingling next to him.
Yu Qingling's eyebrows frowned slightly, and her red eyes were deep. Xuanyu looked down her eyes, like bottomless well water, without waves.
Xuanyu retracted his gaze, and from Yu Qingling's demeanor, he didn't find anything.
She turned her head around again, and several other generals had doubts, puzzles, and surprises written on their faces, they should all be the same as herself, they didn't know anything, and they were all secretly thinking in their hearts.
Xuanyu looked around to no avail, lowered his head, and waited for Yu Qingling to reveal the answer.
Yu Qingling rubbed her eyebrows, she had been frowning just now, and then she realized that she was a little sore: "You are all the people I trust the most."
The first sentence first showed that he was Yu Qingling's most trusted person, and the generals of the royal army knew that there must be something important to announce.
Everyone sat up straight, cleared their throats, and looked serious.
"I want to ask you something." Yu Qingling spoke slowly.
"Huh?" Everyone was confused, and they thought there would be some major task.
Xuanyu reacted first: "I don't know what His Highness wants to ask me about?"
"By your side, I won't sell it. I would like to ask you what you think of His Highness River. ”
Everyone didn't dare to speak, everyone knew that His Highness He, this His Highness who fell from the sky, made Yu Qingling, who could sit firmly on the throne in the future, have one more enemy.
Regarding His Highness He's opinion, the generals here are all first-class smart people, and they quickly associate a lot of terrifying things with His Highness He, what is the usurpation of power, what is the struggle for the throne.
Yu Qingling looked around, saw their thoughts, and smiled lightly.
The heavy atmosphere was broken by laughter, and everyone raised their heads and looked at the girl who was smiling as beautifully as a flower.
"You're thinking too much, I just want to know what you think of His Highness He."
Hearing Yu Qingling's explanation, the generals' hearts fell to the ground like a big stone. Everyone began to talk about it.
