Chapter 0965: Perdition and Guilt
Zhong Changtong also couldn't help but chuckle, his plan with Xu Shu in the near future was half successful, he and Pang Tong were very close in the past, of course, now they are also friends, but Pang Tong refused his request to enter the middle platform, as for why, it is because Zhong Changtong's popularity in the temple is too poor, and he himself is not at the level of Sanling, bringing him to the middle stage, I am afraid that the ministers will not discuss anything important, and they are arguing and fighting all day long.
Zhong Changtong failed to enter the middle stage, and then lost the opportunity to see the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven was busy with his own affairs all day long, and he didn't even want to pay attention to the major affairs of the temple, how could he pay attention to his temple servants? This made Zhong Changtong completely ignored in the temple, Zhong Changtong once went on patrol with Emperor Xiaode, and since that day, he has been thinking about how to improve his ideas.
Now there is finally some way, but there is no way to see the Son of Heaven anymore, Zhong Changtong has visited the Son of Heaven several times, but he has not succeeded, therefore, he has been discussing with Xu Shu how to meet the Son of Heaven, and how to convince the Son of Heaven, he deliberately went to provoke Zhongshu Ling, because he knew that Zhongshu Ling would definitely talk to the Son of Heaven, and he was afraid that he would talk more to the Son of Heaven, but in this way, it would arouse the interest of the Son of Heaven, this Son of Heaven is quite playful, and he likes all new things very much.
Under Liu Yi's several impeachments, Liu Qu finally became interested in Zhong Changtong, so he was invited to come to meet, Zhong Changtong was fully prepared for today's things before he came, so he didn't panic at all, and chatted with the Son of Heaven enthusiastically, Liu Qu likes humorous people, which can be seen from his closeness to the old man of Handan Chun, after chatting with Zhong Changtong for a long time, Liu Qu remembered the purpose of calling him.
"I don't think you're rude, but I don't know why my uncle is so disgusted with you?" , Liu Qu asked the confusion in his heart, Zhong Changtong smiled, and said: "Actually, there is nothing, the main thing is that Liu Linggong has some misunderstandings about me. Hearing Zhong Changtong's words, Liu Qu laughed, nodded thoughtfully, and said: "Uncle's temper is indeed not very good, he is also from a ram, it is understandable, what is it that makes my uncle misunderstand?" ”
"Your Majesty, that's the case, the minister found that the court meeting gradually lost its role, and all the negotiations were concentrated in the service of the middle of the platform, and the service of the middle of the platform became stronger and stronger, Liu Linggong lost his power, so I went to Ling Gong, I proposed, once a year to hold a court meeting, if there is a major event, it can also be convened, the court meeting is responsible for the election of the minister of the middle of the table, in this way, the court meeting can also play a role in the service of the middle of the platform, and the power in the hands of the book order, naturally also soared."
Zhong Changtong asked seriously, "Didn't Your Majesty notice it?" ”
"Perceive what?"
"The strength of the servant platform, the ministers of the current service of the middle stage, stay in the Houde Palace, deal with state affairs, and now His Majesty can still suppress them, but what about the future? If the court can have the power to elect the ministers of the central stage, then the ministers of the central and Taiwan affairs also have a restricted place, and they can no longer do whatever they want, and if there is a bad move, the ministers and the court can directly remove them, which is the most important thing. ”
"Therefore, my proposal is not only beneficial to Liu Linggong, but also to the Han Dynasty, and it is also of great benefit to Your Majesty...", Zhong Changtong said excitedly, Liu Qu listened to his words, but he didn't show much excitement, he pursed his lips and said: "I am the most annoying to the court, whether it is banned, the ministers of the temple, I can be trusted..."
"Your Majesty, they are trustworthy, but what about the next generation, the next generation? Your Majesty can't just think about it now...", Zhong Changtong suddenly panicked, he had been thinking about it for so long, why didn't the Son of Heaven seem to be interested? Banning the court?? What kind of operation is this, Liu Qu looked at Zhong Changtong and said unhappily: "I'm always annoyed by these things, I'm tired of hearing about them... Uncle said so, and so did you..."
"Then why are you arguing?"
"Probably because Liu Linggong thinks that I want to be unfavorable to Your Majesty, and thinks that my behavior is to take away Your Majesty's control over the middle platform, Your Majesty, think about it yourself, the court meeting is convened by the Zhongshu Order, and they will restrict it, Your Majesty will not have to do anything in the future, just do what you like with peace of mind, isn't this a good thing for Your Majesty? For Liu Linggong, Liu Linggong's power has greatly increased, and for the ministers, they will also be happy...."
Zhong Changtong persuaded him for a long time, but Liu Qu became more and more impatient, and his tone gradually became cold, Zhong Changtong sighed helplessly, and was finally invited out by the eunuch, however, Liu Qu also promised him that he would think about his proposal, but Zhong Changtong understood that his plan was probably a failure, and when he walked out of the palace with his head down, he happened to meet Liu Yi.
Liu Yi was in a hurry after learning that Zhong Changtong came to the palace, and now he saw Zhong Changtong, he was furious, and rushed over, the lost Zhong Changtong did not notice him, but Liu Yi grabbed his neck, like picking up a chicken cub and lifted him up suddenly, Zhong Changtong was pinched by him and couldn't speak, his face was red, his eyes were round, "You thief, my Liu family may treat you badly?" The heart of self-destruction does not die!! ”
Liu Yi scolded, and his actions were naturally seen by the surrounding Yellow Gate and the guards, and suddenly, everyone came to persuade them, and some of the guards wanted to pull him away, but Liu Yi's physique was not inferior to the Son of Heaven, just like a black man, not to mention the Yellow Gate, even the guards couldn't open it, just when the situation was anxious and Zhong Changtong was about to be strangled to death by Liu Yi, Liu Yi let go of his hand and threw Zhong Changtong to the ground.
Liu Yi was extremely angry, and he said fiercely: "Let me know that you come to meet the Son of Heaven again, I will tear you alive!" ”
Zhong Changtong's face was not afraid, hearing Liu Yi's words, he laughed wildly, he looked at Liu Yi in front of him contemptuously, and said, "You are the stupid thing who wants to destroy the big man!" From ancient times to the present, can there be an immortal dynasty? Zhuge Linggong got rid of the external troubles of the Han Dynasty, and I want to get rid of the internal troubles, so that the Han can truly eternal, otherwise it will fall into an endless cycle of reincarnation, you stupid thing, there is a kind of kill me now! ”
Seeing that Liu Yi was about to rush forward and fight with Zhong Changtong, Zhuge Liang didn't know when, he had already appeared behind him, "Liu Linggong, don't do it...", he opened his mouth and said, listening to his words, Liu Yi just made a move on Zhong Changtong, Zhuge Liang looked at Zhong Changtong and ordered: "This person is talking about the temple, it is disrespectful, and he will be handed over to the Mangong of the Criminal Palace." Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, several guards stepped forward, directly grabbed Zhong Changtong, and left here with him.
During this period, Zhong Changtong didn't say a word, just looked at Liu Yi coldly.
Seeing Zhong Changtong being taken away, Liu Yi was a little relieved, seeing Zhong Changtong's appearance when he came out, thinking that his plan had not succeeded, Liu Yi thought so, looked at Zhuge Liang on the side, and said: "This dog thief, can he compare himself to Zhuge Linggong, he is also worthy?" Hehe, I hope that Man Jun can cure his temperament well this time! Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You can't punish him severely." ”
"Why?"
"Because the household cannot do without him, and if he is not there, all the statistical affairs he has carried out will be cut off."
"Then why did Ling Gong send him to the Punishment Mansion?"
Zhuge Liang didn't answer, walked to the palace, Liu Yi also hurriedly followed, walking on the road, Zhuge Liang was still thinking about Zhong Changtong's words, Liu Yi turned his back to himself, didn't see himself, but Zhong Changtong obviously saw himself, his words, as if he deliberately said it to himself, the cycle he mentioned in his mouth was the first to be put forward by Zhuge Liang, however, Zhuge Liang's thoughts, all the predicaments came from outside, so he thought of ending this cycle by conquering the outside.
When the two walked into the Tai Palace, Huangmen had already informed Liu Qu of Zhong Changtong's matter.
Liu Qu looked a little helpless, he didn't really want to hear these contradictions between the ministers, especially from his uncle's mouth, without waiting for Liu Yi to open his mouth to complain, Zhuge Liang opened his mouth to accept: "Your Majesty... Zhong Changtong just arrived in the palace, but he said that the cycle of reincarnation? ”
"What? Nope! ”
Liu Qu looked at Zhuge Liang blankly, Zhuge Liang just said Zhong Changtong's words, Liu Yi also nodded with added vinegar, and added: "Zhuge Linggong is right, this guy just thinks that the Han will perish, and compares himself to Zhuge Linggong, he is cursing the Han, he is looking forward to the destruction of the Han, how can such a dog thief not die?" After finishing Zhong Changtong's words, Zhuge Liang added:
"The minister has always thought that this kind of cycle exists, but the minister feels that the power of destruction still comes from outside, so he has been conquering the outside world, and today's words of Zhong Changtong make me a little confused...", Zhuge Liang said seriously.
"From within...", for some reason, Liu Qu's face suddenly changed, he stood up instantly, looked at Zhuge Liang in front of him sluggishly, muttered a few words to himself, and then calmed down, shook his head, and said: "Zhong Changtong is not guilty of any major crimes, he also wants to make the big man better, don't bother with him, let Manjun lock him up for a few days, and let him go." ”
Zhuge Liang nodded, although he didn't know why the Son of Heaven reacted so much, but he didn't ask much, Liu Yi was a little unconvinced, he said: "How can Your Majesty let him go so easily, he..."
"Uncle... I have made up my mind, and I don't need to say more. ”
Liu Qu opened his mouth to speak, but his tone was a little different, and the irascible Liu Yi stared at him for a long time before he said, "Sincerely."
