Brocade Thread Chapter 66
Liu Moxing's sneer made everyone in the court a little scared. I saw him smile slightly: "The emperor wants evidence, okay!" Lord Jane's confession in the hand of Moli, the governor of Jinzhi City, I don't know if it is considered evidence? ”
After speaking, Liu Moxing glanced at Jian You with a slight sneer, Jian You felt his gaze, and his body was trembling. Liu Moxing seemed to say, look, this is your monarch! He is cowardly, he is incompetent.
He even wanted to shield a sinner who was unspeakable, and you did not disobey him, and became his accomplice. Your principles are with your own masters, and that's just that.
Jian You was uncomfortable by Liu Moxing, he seemed to have made up his mind, walked out and knelt on the ground and said, "Jian You, the minister and the inspector, prove that what Master Fu said is true." Morley's confession was written by the minister himself! He clearly wrote in the confession that he and Jiang Boyuan conspired to embezzle money for ink repairs, as well as their collusion. ”
As he spoke, Jian You took out Morley's confession and offered it with both hands. The eunuch went down and took it and presented it to the emperor.
The emperor's hands trembled after reading the confession. He didn't expect Jian You to really ignore his position for the sake of his own principles, and come forward to prove that Jiang Boyuan was familiar with Hu.
He gently put down the confession and said weakly: "Jiang Boyuan's incident with Hu is conclusive. dismissed him from the post of secretary of the Ministry of Works, and imprisoned him in a prison waiting to be released. ”
"Waiting for it to fall?" Wen Zhili, who had been silent, spoke at this time, "If the minister remembers correctly, when Sun Guozhi colluded with the rebel party, the emperor immediately ordered him to be beheaded. Why did Jiang Bo Yuantong Hu become waiting to be sent down? It seems that the matter of Tonghu has not yet colluded with the party. ”
The emperor didn't expect Wen Zhili to intervene at such a time, only to see Wen Zhili looking at him calmly, as if he could read all his thoughts. He's saying, "Do you think you're thinking I don't know?" You are with me, and there is nothing to hide.
Just when the emperor was still struggling, Wen Zhili opened his mouth and asked, "Lord Jane, in the first battle of Biquan City, what is the loss of our dynasty's troops?" ”
Jian You heard Wen Zhili's words, and replied truthfully: "Biquan City has fewer troops, and the defenders are only 5,000 people, plus the 10,000 soldiers brought by General Chu, it is only about 15,000 people. These people, with their own flesh and blood, resisted the 30,000 soldiers of the Hu tribe! Because the Hu soldiers were brave and good at fighting, our army lost nearly 8,000 people. ”
After listening to Jian You's answer, Wen Zhili looked at Liu Moxing and asked, "How is Lord Liu's condition?" ”
Liu Moxing smiled coldly and said, "I sent a total of 5,000 soldiers from the Liu family, and I lost nearly 2,000 people. ”
After hearing this, Wen Zhili saluted the emperor and said, "The Wen family guards fought with 5,000 people, and the losses were nearly 2,000 people, and these people added up to 12,000 people. Dare to ask the Holy Lord, how are you going to explain to these 12,000 dead soldiers? At the beginning, Sun Guozhi colluded with the party, and my country did not lose a single soldier, and he was convicted of a capital crime. According to the minister's meaning, Jiang Boyuan owes these lives that even ten deaths are not enough! ”
The Emperor didn't seem to expect that the losses in the first battle of Biquan City would be so heavy, and he sat on the dragon chair a little weakly. He couldn't say a word for a long time, just looked at Jiang Boyuan, who was already kneeling on the ground in fright.
Liu Moxing glanced coldly at the civil and military officials at this time, and everyone was too frightened to speak. He looked at the already sluggish emperor and said: "Shengshang, the side joint degree made Jin Lin commit suicide in Biquan City after being found to be through Hu, and Madame Jin also went with him, which can be regarded as responsible for her own actions." Chen Liu Moxing asked the saint, shouldn't Jiang Boyuan die? ”
When Jiang Boyuan heard Liu Moxing say this, his teeth itched with hatred. He looked at Liu Moxing and said, "Liu Moxing, you want to put me to death, have you considered your uncle's feelings?" The Jiang family has been implicated, can you stay okay? ”
Liu Moxing smiled at him, and when he smiled, he really captivated the country and the city. is obviously a very beautiful smile, but it makes everyone fall into an ice cellar. There was a hint of laziness in his voice: "Jiang Boyuan, even if Taifu Jiang is here today, you must die." Also, threaten me Liu Moxing, are you qualified? ”
After speaking, he saluted the emperor and said, "Chen Liu Moxing implores the emperor to execute Jiang Boyuan to comfort the heroic soul." ”
After Liu Moxing finished speaking, Wen Zhili also said: "Minister Wen Zhili implores the emperor to execute Jiang Boyuan to comfort the heroic soul." ”
Seeing that Liu Moxing and Wen Zhili had spoken, the remaining ministers hurriedly seconded the proposal. Including Jian You, everyone is saying the same thing.
"The minister implores the emperor to execute Jiang Boyuan to comfort the heroic soul."
At this time, Jiang Boyuan and the emperor seemed to understand the same thing. That is, who has the final say in this court now.
Jiang Boyuan was greedy for money for border defense repairs and colluded with the Hu people, which was a great crime. The Jiang family was beheaded, and Concubine Yi was deposed as Jiang Boyuan's sister. Because Taifu Jiang Heng had been loyal to the imperial court for many years and did not know about it, the Jiang family was spared. Chu Fu, the general of Zhengyuan, guarded Biquan City this time, and made great contributions, giving thousands of acres of fertile land, 10,000 taels of gold, and countless jewels.
The right phase Liu Mo walked, and the left phase was gentle and courteous to protect the country, giving 100 acres of fertile land and 1,000 taels of gold. After that, the Wen family guards and the Liu family soldiers were the regular army of the imperial court. The inspector's book is simple and leisurely to retreat from the enemy, and he is given a mansion and a thousand taels of gold. Fu Chuanming, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, reported meritorious service, and was promoted to the Ministry of Works.
A few days later, Chu Fu's class returned to the court to receive the reward. recommended Jiao Yu, the general under his account, to succeed Jin Lin as the new border joint envoy, and proposed that the Wen family guards be stationed at the border pass with Jiao Yu. At this point, Wen Zhili's sphere of influence spread to the border passes.
At the beginning of September, Ji Wanjun, the general of Shudi, died, and the garrison was weak for a while. Zuo Xiang Wen Zhili proposed that the Liu family's personal soldiers go to garrison, and the ministers seconded the proposal. After this time, Shu was pocketed by Liu Moxing.
The Wenliu family no longer has a blind spot in Lanping, and the prestige of the people has continued to rise for a while, reaching the heyday of the Wenliu family that their fathers Wen Huan and Liu Mu never created.
