Chapter 222: The Drama of the Court

Liu Qingfeng was very aggrieved, today was his first day in court, but none of those ministers showed his kindness, either whispered behind his back, or simply avoided him.

Anyway, Liu Qingfeng is like the lone one one among the ducks on the lake, and he looks pitiful in the cold wind.

However, Liu Qingfeng didn't feel pitiful, at most he was just wronged, he adjusted his mentality and strode towards the court. This early court is very hard, before dawn you have to wait outside the palace gate, finally wait for the eunuch to let the door come, and have to walk to the court, if you don't have a good attitude, the days after this will not go on.

Hundreds of officials knelt down, the emperor sat on the Jinluan Treasure Palace, and Liu Qingfeng also found his place.

He never thought that one day, he would be able to sit on an equal footing with Xuanyuan Yi, whether they are related by blood or not, at least the two of them can be regarded as princes, and no one can command anyone.

"If you have something to do, you have nothing to retreat."

"If Zhong Aiqing doesn't have it, I have one thing here, King Han, and I still need an explanation from you."

Xuanyuan Yi walked out, calm.

"The minister knows, what His Majesty wants to say, it must be the two traitors of the minister, Tuoba Lin and Shangguan Hong."

"It's not just the two of them, but Qiusi Villa is under your jurisdiction?"

"The minister is guilty!"

King Han knelt down without hesitation, looking like a loyal servant who had learned from the pain.

"Don't say whether you're guilty or not, just explain things clearly." The emperor specially opened an opening for Xuanyuan Yi to see how he was talking nonsense.

"Yes, thank you to Your Majesty Rong Chen for telling the story, Qiusi Villa is under the jurisdiction of a person named Cao Dong under the minister, and his usual duty is to protect the family and defend the country, I don't know that in recent years, the ministers have neglected to manage, and they have become rebels, but when the incident happened, the minister also went to understand, and only today I reported to Your Majesty, this Cao Dong, there is no intention of imitation, at that time, His Majesty's micro-service patrol was only when His Majesty was a chaotic minister and thief......"

"Oh, what does Cao Dong mean by handing over me and King Xiang to the Han Army? And where did this army come from? Could it be that King Han has been loyal for many years, and suddenly wants to raise troops? ”

"I didn't mean that!

Xuanyuan Yi emphasized the tone, emphasizing that he had no intention of rebelling.

"This Han army is indeed unknown to the ministers. It was done by him Shangguan Hong alone, my subordinate Cao Dong was guilty, but he was only blinded, he was only used as a Han army to protect the family and defend the country, but unexpectedly, it was Shangguan Hong who made it privately! ”

Liu Qingfeng thought in his heart, this statement was simply full of omissions, and Xuanyuan Yi could say it, but listening to his meaning, he wanted to protect Qiusi Villa.

That's right, after all, Qiusi Villa is the lair of the Han King, and there are a lot of things in it, which the emperor has already mentioned, so he must not let Qiusi Villa fall into the hands of the emperor.

"In this way, you also admit the evidence of the crimes of Tuoba Lin and Shangguan Hong, what should the two of them do, you say."

"The minister doesn't dare to beg for mercy for them, but there are doubts, can Qiusi Villa still be saved?"

"Does the Han King want to keep it or not?"

The emperor seemed to be asking, but he was actually forcing Xuanyuan Yi to give up Cao Dong, and Xuanyuan Yi naturally could hear it, but he had to harden himself with the emperor: "The two of them deserve it, but Cao Dong is really innocent, and the minister still wants to intercede for him." ”

"It's not that I haven't stayed in this villa, the scale is huge, like a small country, King Han thinks I'm a fool, I can tolerate the existence of this kind of place, if this villa is your treasure, then I can think that you want to stand on your own?"

Xuanyuan Yi immediately denied it: "Chen Wanwan didn't mean this, since the establishment of Qiusi Villa, it has always been used by the country, and Cao Dong alone is also very good, if His Majesty wants to condemn Cao Dong, it is to put Qiusi Villa in the time when the dragons are leaderless, which is also very influential on Guozuo." ”

"Oh, this Qiusi Villa is so important, it has already affected Guozuo, His Royal Highness King Han, I have not been in the court for a long time, I don't understand the reason, you might as well explain it to me." Liu Qingfeng suddenly interjected, and Xuanyuan Yi was caught off guard.

"King Xiang is questioning this king? Qiu Si has made contributions to the country, I don't know how many, it's just that this king didn't ask His Majesty for a reward, what evidence does His Royal Highness King Xiang want? ”

"I don't want any evidence, I just want His Royal Highness King Han to come up with the facts, if you know that Qiu Villa is indeed beneficial to Guozuo, it is not impossible to stay, and it is not impossible for Cao Dong to make meritorious contributions, as Your Royal Highness King Han said, he is just blinded by it, if this Qiu Si is not helpful to the court, but is a scourge, then why doesn't Your Majesty get rid of him?"

"Enough, King Xiang, don't talk to King Han like this, King Han is my brother, and he still has a higher rank than you."

"Yes. The minister knows his mistake. ”

The emperor continued: "In that case, I still give King Han a face to you as always, Qiusi Villa is kept, since Cao Dong is your person, you can take it back, how to deal with it yourself, but in the end, what is the final result still have to give me an explanation, as for Tuoba and Shangguan, the two of them are guilty of capital crimes, and the autumn queen will inevitably ask about it, how about it?" ”

King Han thanked the emperor with a smile on his face, and said as if he was loyal: "Thank you Emperor Longen, those two ministers don't want to care about them anymore, and Your Majesty is free to decide." As for that army......

"That Han army is naturally incorporated into the royal army, does King Han have other ideas?"

"The minister didn't, and the minister thought the same way."

"That's good."

Liu Qingfeng said: "The minister has objections. Although it is true that the Han army is incorporated into the royal army, it is different from the regular army, and they cannot be mixed into it, and they have to be formed into a separate team. ”

This idea was actually discussed by Liu Qingfeng with the emperor a long time ago, and it was just acting in the court.

At this time, the emperor followed Liu Qingfeng's words and said: "It makes sense to say this, I don't know how many juniors there are among them, so it's better to be cautious and put them into another team, and they don't need to be used until necessary." ”

"In that case, why don't Your Majesty disarm them and return them to the field?" One of the Han King's accomplices began to speak for the Han King.

If this group of troops can neither enter the royal army nor return it to their own use, then it is equivalent to being abolished, and if they are disarmed and returned to the field, these people still have room to use it.

"What are you doing when you are disarmed? Now that the war is tight, there are more or less barbarian disputes at the time of the border stop, if it is not handled well next time, it is really time to fight, these people should be prepared, and they will not be able to recruit troops in the future. Liu Qing said in the air.
