Chapter 697: Chop
"If there is any grievance, only come through the channel." Lao Jiu's gaze withdrew from Hu Qingyan and looked at Chu Ruocai.
Chu Ruocai raised his head: "The reason for this matter, I have to start from the fact that the minister first entered Beijing and went to the Ming Palace, and saw the Ming princess, because the Ming princess was attacked on Shangqing Mountain before, the marshal has been worried about the injury of the Ming princess, and Gu Mingchen asked the famous doctor in the south to accompany ......him."
As Chu Ruocai spoke, everyone's eyes fell on Chu Ruocai, listening intently.
When he heard him say that the king of Ming actually had a secret conversation with him, saying that he wanted the southern army to support him at the enthronement ceremony, and forced His Majesty to agree to let the queen mother listen to the government, if the southern army agreed, he agreed to provide the support of the Taoist forces during the war against the barbarians.
When the ministers heard this, they became in a commotion.
"King Ming is really a wolf's ambition, and he wants to welcome the queen mother to listen to the government."
"This is absolutely not good, there are Ming monarchs in the court, and virtuous ministers below, how can you let the harem be in charge, this is a chaotic country!"
"Yes, I will wait for the Golden Palace as a minister, and I will never tolerate such a rebellious thing......"
They finally knew why His Majesty would directly attack King Ming as soon as he ascended the throne.
It turned out that it was not that His Majesty was impulsive and desperate to deal with him, but that even if His Majesty did not move King Ming, King Ming would attack His Majesty, so His Majesty would strike first.
"Chu Ruocai!" Suddenly, a voice interrupted Chu Ruocai.
The hall was immediately silent, and everyone immediately looked towards Hu Qingyan.
That's right, it was Hu Qingyan, who had never spoken from beginning to end, who spoke, and as soon as he spoke, the hundred officials' expressions immediately changed slightly.
"What advice does Elder Ge have?" Chu Ruocai looked at Hu Qingyan.
Hu Qingyan frowned slightly at this moment, his eyes stared at Chu Ruocai: "Do you know that this is the Golden Palace of the National Dynasty, and you are responsible for speaking here, if you dare to open your mouth, even if you are a member of the Southern Army, the National Dynasty will definitely bring you to justice!" ”
"In front of Your Majesty, in the next sentence is true, I dare not say a word!" Chu Ruocai had a righteous face.
Hu Qingyan nodded: "Okay, do you mean that the king and you are conspiring to welcome the queen mother?" ”
"Exactly!" Chu Ruocai said.
"Your Majesty ascended the throne, civil and military officials gathered in the Golden Palace, although the King of Ming is a royal family, but there is no official position, the court political affairs are not something he can interfere with, nor can the Southern Army intervene, just because you say that you want to welcome the Queen Mother? Isn't it child's play? If you want to achieve your goal, you must have King Ming in the court, and he must be an important minister, right? Hu Qingyan stared at Chu Ruocai, and his tone was very calm.
"That's right, today we are gathering together to welcome the Queen Mother and hang the curtain, how can King Ming and the Southern Army have the final say?"
"Yes, you must have the support of hundreds of officials, King Ming must have fornicated with the court officials......"
"Be careful!"
Hu Qingyan's voice fell, and the wind in the court changed again, but soon, the court was quiet.
The ministers quickly reacted, as Hu Qingyan said, the king of Ming wanted to welcome the queen mother, and what he wanted was not the support of the southern army, but the support of the courtiers.
Otherwise, it will be impossible to force His Majesty to agree, if it is inferred from this, who is the Ming King fornicating?
Hu Qingyan, who once welcomed the Queen Mother out of the mountain when the palace changed, was the most suspicious, and the courtiers looked at Hu Qingyan's seemingly calm face, no wonder Hu Qingyan couldn't help but come forward.
The spearhead was clearly directed at him, and of course he couldn't sit still.
The officials under Hu Qingyan, after they figured it out, immediately changed color in shock, and they could no longer be silent: "Chu Ruocai, you are simply nonsense. ”
"Are you really a bully for Your Majesty? How dare you use such a stupid lie to deceive the king, when we can't see it? ”
"Welcoming the Queen Mother to hang the curtain, is it something that your southern army can control? For the sake of your support, King Ming wants to give up this palace full of ministers are all mediocre people? ”
"Chu Ruocai, you lied and deceived the king, who instructed you, and you didn't recruit it from the truth?"
After seeing Hu Qingyan come forward, the court moved so much that Chu Ruocai was shouted and beaten by everyone for a while, and he didn't even give him a chance to explain.
Lao Jiu saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, and his eyes fell on Hu Qingyan and paused.
To be honest, what Chu Ruocai said just now, he couldn't tell the truth from the false for a while, and he didn't know whether it was true or arranged by King De.
But whether it's true or not, this is of course beneficial to him, and he naturally wants to defend Chu Ruocai, and immediately said in a deep voice: "It's all quiet!" ”
Then he looked at Chu Ruocai: "You continue." ”
Seeing that His Majesty had such an attitude, Hu Qingyan's face suddenly changed and looked at Hu Qingyan, but seeing that Hu Qingyan had lowered his head, they could only be patient.
Chu Ruocai also took a deep look at Hu Qingyan, and had an understanding of his influence in the court, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please listen to the ministers, King Ming is indeed going to welcome the Queen Mother, and there are indeed courtiers as internal responses, as for who it is......"
Chu Ruocai didn't say it, but his eyes were on Zhang Bangli.
The ministers in the palace were stunned, and they all looked at Zhang Bangli.
"Sure enough, it's you!"
"Zhang Bangli, the dynasty treats you like a mountain, you dare to do things that disrupt the dynasty, you deserve to die!"
"I should have thought that it was you a long time ago, today you continue to open your eyes for the rebellious ministers and thieves, which shows that you have ill intentions!"
For a while, Zhang Bangli was pointed out by thousands of people, but Hu Qingyan and his family were stunned, thinking that Chu Ruocai was alluding to Hu Qingyan, but they didn't expect it to be Zhang Bangli.
Now they also looked at each other, not knowing how to react.
Seeing that Hu Qingyan didn't say anything, they naturally wouldn't speak for Zhang Bangli anymore, so as not to be suspected of fornicating with King Ming.
Zhang Bangli saw everyone's accusations, and laughed angrily: "If you want to slander me, you have to use your brains, this official never befriends courtiers, how can you influence the overall situation of the government?" ”
"You can't say that, although Chief Zhang doesn't seem to befriend the courtiers, but even by the side of King Zong, you have installed it carefully, maybe there are officials who have been manipulated by you and have to ......be controlled by you," King De sneered and said.
As soon as King De's words came out, the faces of the ministers in the palace suddenly changed, and the scope of these words was too wide.
At this time, if anyone dares to speak for Zhang Bangli, he will be controlled.
Even whoever doesn't stand up and fall against him will be a mess.
For a while, whether he wanted to or not, he had to stand up and accuse Zhang Bangli, and the scene immediately became the finger of Qianfu.
Zhang Bangli was speechless, and he looked bleak as if his heart was dead.
"Shut up to this king!" Suddenly, King Ming let out a thunderous shout, making the hall quiet.
"King Ming, you dare to roar...... "You Qu official said angrily.
But before he finished speaking, he saw a real person suddenly appear in front of him, and King Ming was still standing in place.
It was as if nothing had happened, but a strong wind invisibly rippled, and both Zhenren and King Ming were fluttering.
The scene was really quiet, and the Qu official finally realized something, and said with a trembling mouth: "You, you ......"
"Shut up!" The real person spoke.
The man was shocked, and the real person ignored him anymore, and only said to the ministers: "You must not be presumptuous in the Golden Palace!" ”
After that, the real person turned around and walked towards Lao Jiu.
However, the man behind him suddenly flew upside down and shot directly out of the hall the moment he turned around.
Everyone turned around in shock, only to see that the man landed at the door of the Golden Palace, a mouthful of blood spurted out of the temple, and fell to the ground without moving.
The guards standing at the door were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the person away.
The real person actually shot!
Or against the courtiers!
Everyone's faces turned pale, and they really didn't dare to speak again.
Mo Bai looked at the real person with a gloomy face, and then turned his head to look at Chu Ruocai: "You go on, this king suddenly wants to hear what kind of story you can arrange later." ”
Chu Ruocai turned his head to look at Lao Jiu, Lao Jiu's face was a little gloomy, he glanced at King Ming, and then at the real person, but he didn't say anything, only nodded.
Chu Ruocai continued: "At that time, I only heard King Ming say that Qu Guogong would inevitably make a hindrance, and this person could not be left ......."
Hearing this, Lao Jiu immediately raised his eyes and glanced at King Ming, and sure enough, he saw King Ming sneering.
Lao Jiu naturally knew that what Chu Ruocai said at the moment was all false and arranged.
couldn't help but glance at King De again, but saw that King De just nodded to him and reassured him.
And when the ministers heard that Qu Guogong was finally mentioned, their previous suspicions about Chu Ruocai were a little less again.
Indeed, Qu Guogong will definitely not support him no matter what, so it is natural to get rid of Qu Guogong.
The officials of the Qu department couldn't bear it for a while, but just now the real person did it, so they didn't dare to make trouble again.
"You ......" Hearing the mention of Qu Guogong, Zhang Bangli couldn't help it again, but before the words were spoken, the real person's eyes had already shot over.
Zhang Bangli's face changed suddenly, and he didn't say any more.
And the real person didn't do it this time, and the ministers can also understand that Zhang Bangli is one of the auxiliary ministers, and before he is convicted, the real person has to give him face.
Only then did Chu Ruocai continue: "What King Ming meant at the time was that after getting rid of Duke Qu, His Majesty would definitely be furious and attack King Ming's Mansion. But in the absence of evidence, His Majesty has only ascended the throne again, and his foothold is unstable, as long as our southern army unites with him and puts pressure on His Majesty, His Majesty will inevitably lose face, and he will give an explanation for slandering King Ming, so he will take advantage of the situation to welcome the Queen Mother to listen to the government, and the court officials will respond to every call......"
The ministers did not dare to interrupt again, but their hearts were shocked when they listened.
If this development is really followed, it is really possible to be succeeded by King Ming.
There is Zhang Bangli as the internal response, and there is Hu Qingyan......
Although Chu Ruocai did not testify against Hu Qingyan, Hu Qingyan is indeed strange today, from beginning to end, he has never come forward to support His Majesty to deal with King Ming, he once welcomed the Queen Mother out of the mountain, and was rewarded by the Queen Mother with the Evergreen Pill, it is difficult to say whether there is a point between him and King Ming......
Coupled with the support of the three marshals of Daomen, Nanjun, and Hu, Liu, and Zhang, His Majesty may not be able to stop King Ming at that time.
Next, everyone listened silently as Chu Ruocai told everything.
It's exactly the one that was explained to King De, but the plot was slightly changed.
The southern army took into account the overall situation, and on the occasion of the joint resistance against barbarians, they were unwilling to cooperate with the Ming Palace, and then the Ming Palace, threatened with the life of the third son, Lin Dingyu, and had no choice but to temporarily agree.
According to the request of King Ming, he secretly made an appointment to meet with Qu Guogong.
But in fact, he deliberately warned Qu Guogong's housekeeper during the appointment, but for some reason, Qu Guogong still came.
Then he was assassinated on the spot by the Ming Wangfu, who had already been ambushed, and blamed them on the southern army.
After this, the southern army was unable to speak.
Originally, he could only go to the dark with King Ming, but King Ming underestimated their Southern Army, for the sake of the overall situation, even if the Southern Army knew the death of Qu Guogong, they couldn't get out of the relationship, and they still chose to tell the truth.
Speaking of this, the courtiers couldn't help but believe it, after all, the Southern Army was also involved in the affairs of Qu Guogong and was also responsible.
It is impossible for Chu Ruocai to trap himself in order to blame King Ming.
"Hu Shuai, Liu Shuai, and Zhang Shuai also knew about this matter, and King Ming didn't just contact our Southern Army." In the end, Chu Ruo made a decision.
Hu, Liu and Zhang came out at the same time: "What Chu Ruocai said is true, King Ming did discuss this matter with us, I waited for him to have many meritorious deeds in resisting barbarianism, and he once strongly persuaded him and His Majesty to fight against barbarians regardless of their previous suspicions, but they insisted on going their own way, and we can do this adverse thing with him?" ”
At this point, the ending is decided.
This story is actually not important to Lao Jiu, of course it is better to have this story.
What he wants is for these parties to express their positions, and now they can do it.
Lao Jiu looked directly at King Ming, and said word by word: "Come on, behead King Ming!" ”
