Chapter 121: The Great Pilgrimage
In the early morning of the next day, the court meeting began, and under the sharp voices of the chamberlains, the ministers and generals were divided into two columns, and they rushed in, waiting for the arrival of the emperor Ling Tianmu in the solemn Changle Palace.
A moment later, Ling Tianmu slowly walked into the main hall surrounded by the middle attendants and several chamberlains. Ling Tianmu glanced down at the ministers in the main hall, feeling quite high-spirited. Although he had already received the news of the recovery of Liangzhou a few days ago, today, as Mo Feng, the messenger of Liangzhou's victory, stood above the court, he felt that this Liangzhou had really been recovered.
After Ling Tianmu sat down on the dragon chair, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty immediately bowed to Ling Tianmu, and the mountain shouted, "The ministers wait to meet Your Majesty", and then, Ling Tianmu shouted "Flat body", and the civil and military officials stood up respectfully.
The theme of this court meeting, from Ling Tianmu to every civil and military official, knows what it is: the recovery of Liangzhou. And today's protagonist Mo Feng also stood up, holding the bamboo slip with both hands and kneeling down in the middle of the main hall, reporting to Ling Tianmu.
"The Guiyi Army was ordered by His Majesty to recover Liangzhou. With the blessing of His Majesty and the help of the people of Liangzhou, the Guiyi Army lived up to the holy will and finally recovered Liangzhou. Mo Feng was entrusted by Zhao Wutang, the general of Pingxi, and now he presents a great victory in Liangzhou to His Majesty. ”
Xiao Qin, the middle attendant, trotted to Mo Feng's side, took the good news of recovering Liangzhou from him, and then ran back to Ling Tianmu's side. At Ling Tianmu's suggestion, Xiao Qin opened the bamboo slip and read it out to the top of the main hall.
Even though Ling Tianmu had already read this report yesterday, when he listened to it again today, he was still in a surging mood. Rocky's framing at the beginning, I don't want to really make the Guiyi Army a reality. Liangzhou was recovered, and Xianbei Hu was in civil strife, which he couldn't have imagined at that time. Now, he is confident that he can argue with Yuwen Po, and he also has great expectations for the recovery of Yongzhou.
After Xiao Qin finished reading, the civil and military officials shouted "Your Majesty Shengming" and congratulated Ling Tianmu one after another. Listening to this good news, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs invariably had a trace of fear for the Guiyi Army in his heart. Hard resistance to wolf riding, bloody battles and Xianbei elite riding, "killing Hu Ling" and other things, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can do, which has to make them afraid of the Guiyi Army in their hearts.
Fortunately, the Guiyi army now suffered heavy casualties, almost all dead and wounded, otherwise, the emperor and they would not have had a good night's sleep. Because of this, the ministers who promised to speak for the Guiyi Army yesterday evening also had a sense of comfort in their hearts.
Shaofu Liu Ying and the ministers who took refuge in him should be regarded as outliers. They have always believed in Mo Feng under the coercion of Mo Feng at the beginning, although they have been shaken in their hearts, but they still choose to believe in Mo Feng under the coercion, even if they are reluctant, but now they are extremely happy in their hearts, if they betrayed him at the beginning, then they may not live today, and they will not hear the good news of this.
Ling Tianmu's voice sounded above the main hall: "The recovery of Liangzhou and the return to the righteous army is the first achievement. At the beginning, in order to keep secrets, the military name of the Guiyi Army was removed. Now, I will be a favor and give you the name of 'Qin Jun'. Mo Qing, what do you think? ”
"Mo Feng on behalf of General Zhao and all the brothers of the Qin army, thank you for your great kindness! Your Majesty! ”
"Well, in that case! Then I personally announced the reward for the Qin army: the Pingxi general Zhao Wutang was promoted to the general of Zhenxi, and the hussar general Li Shu was promoted to defend Liangzhou; The partial general Mo Feng was promoted to the general of the Fujun army, and the governor of Liangzhou, and helped Zhang Xian, the assassin of Liangzhou, to deal with all government affairs in Liangzhou; The official positions of the rest of the generals of the Qin army remained unchanged, and they were rewarded with thousands of gold and ten horses of Shu brocade to show their glory. The Qin soldiers were rewarded with 100 gold, and five Shu brocade horses were rewarded as a reward, and the bereavement pension for the soldiers who died in the battle was doubled. I also hope that General Zhao, Mo Qing and the generals of the Qin army will continue to regain Yongzhou for my Tianxing.
As for the grain and grass, the support for the people of Liangzhou, and the assembly of the Liangzhou garrison can be completed within five days. When the time comes, you will return to Liangzhou with Zhang Xian and Li Shu with the 30,000 troops stationed in Liangzhou. ”
"Your Majesty Shengming, Mo Feng on behalf of all the brothers of the Qin Army, thank Your Majesty for your great kindness!" Mo Feng thanked him again.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this move is inappropriate! How could Mo Feng, a military general, concurrently serve such an important position as the governor of Liang? A minister jumped out. Ling Tianmu's reward, these ministers already knew it in their hearts, but what they didn't expect was that Ling Tianmu actually made Mo Feng the governor of Liangzhou and let a military general go to a part-time civil official, which made them put their faces on the ministers.
"Wrong? I don't think there's anything wrong with it! Remember what I said a few days ago? ”
Of course, Weichen remembered that His Majesty appointed all the civil and military officials in Liangzhou that day, but the post of Liangzhou Governor Shi was not appointed. His Majesty said at that time that he would leave it to a young talent he fancied, after the famous family. ”
"That's right, that person is Mo Feng!" Recalling that day and night, Bai Hua advised Mo Feng to concurrently serve as the governor of Liang, and let Mo Feng restrain Zhao Wutang. At that time, he also felt very ridiculous, Mo Feng and Zhao Wutang were wearing a pair of pants, how could Mo Feng restrain Zhao Wutang. However, after Bai Hua gave him a reason, he didn't speak again: Mo Feng has ambitions and ambitions to climb up, since he quit the Shengjie Army and joined the Guiyi Army, he has been climbing up step by step, such a person will replace Zhao Wutang sooner or later.
What's more, Mo Feng's identity is the son of Mo Yan, and he can be regarded as a civil official, so he is naturally more credible than Zhao Wutang, the former minister of the first emperor.
"It's true that General Mo is a young talent, but he is a famous family, so the minister is puzzled?"
"This matter is also my negligence, except for a few people such as the crown prince and the third duke, I have never told you his true identity. Mo Feng, now tell them yourself! ”
"Yes! Weichen Mofeng, a native of Youzhou, his father is Youzhou Thorn Shi Moyan. ”
When the minister knew Mo Feng's identity, his expression was just like Liu Ying at the beginning, with an unbelievable look on his face. This Mo Feng turned out to be the son of Mo Yan who had made these ministers lose face in Youzhou. Recalling the past, he had goosebumps all over his body, fortunately he died on the battlefield, otherwise in Chengdu, all of them would have to live in his shadow.
But now tell him that this Mo Feng turned out to be the son of that Mo Yan, how could this not frighten him. The shadow that had shrouded him at the beginning was now back.
"Minister...... Minister...... Your Majesty is wise! The minister was so frightened that he couldn't speak incoherently, and at last he had to say this.
"Zhongqing, do you have any opinions?" Ling Tianmu asked casually, now that she was in a good mood, she didn't want anyone to come out to make trouble anymore. Especially if no one wants to stir up trouble with what happened yesterday! Let Mo Feng stay calm for five days, and let them go back to Liangzhou is the right thing.
Ling Tianmu must have never heard of Murphy's Law, otherwise he would never have such thoughts. The last thing he wanted to happen happened the next moment.
Under the eyes of Taiwei Yan Qin, a minister stood up and reported Mo Feng, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's will, the minister naturally agrees with it!" However, General Mo's private virtue is not very good! Yesterday, General Mo made a big fuss in the Imperial Shi Dafu Mansion, injured the guards of the Imperial Shi Dafu Mansion, and forcibly took away several valuable calligraphy and paintings from the mansion. With this kind of virtue, even the son of Mo Thorn Shi is probably not enough to serve as the governor of Liangzhou! ”
"Lord Zhang doesn't seem to have said everything, why don't you talk about the old man's banquet for General Mo in the evening!" Luo Qi stood up at the right time, "General Mo came to the Imperial Doctor's Mansion yesterday to propose marriage, and those guards were beaten by mistake because they didn't know General Mo, all of this was a misunderstanding. Those calligraphy and paintings are the apology gift given by the old man to General Mo, and they are also part of the dowry of the little girl. ”
As soon as Rocky spoke, the ministers who had conspired with him last night and said good things for Mo Feng also stood up to speak for Mo Feng.
"Master Zhang, you can't speak directly!"
"Yes, Master Zhang, you see that Dr. Yu Shi has told the truth, he is going to marry his daughter, but it is not General Mo!"
……
Ministers, you said a word to me, the official who jumped out was stunned, he couldn't have imagined that his words would cause such a big reaction, and there were several important ministers of Jiuqing's level who opposed him, which he could never have imagined.
The minister slipped back to his seat, he didn't want to be attacked again.
In the crowd, Ling Tianmu was stunned, Ling Luotian was stunned, Bai Hua was stunned, Bai Wuye was stunned, Yan Qin was stunned, and some unreasonable ministers and generals were stunned, they never imagined that Luo Qi would jump out to speak for Mo Feng, or say that he would marry his daughter to him, this is really a big joke in the world. The culprit who framed the Guiyi Army to go to Liangzhou in the first place would intercede for Mo Feng, and he would also say such things as marrying his daughter to him, which is not surprising.
After a temporary calm, the ministers and generals exchanged heads and ears. The originally solemn hall suddenly turned into a vegetable market.
"Retreat, retreat!" Ling Tianmu roared, "Except for Rocky to stay, everyone else can go!" ”
Under Ling Tianmu's roar and the urging of the attendants, the civil and military officials were "invited" out of the hall one after another. After a short period of commotion, the main hall of Changle Palace returned to calm.
"Rocky, tell me, what happened yesterday? Why are you saying this today? ”
Rocky's body bowed low, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, and the minister deserves to die!" At the beginning, the minister anonymously informed the Xianbei Hu side of the news that the Guiyi Army would attack Wudu, and this matter was somehow known to them after the Guiyi Army recovered Liangzhou. That's why Mo Feng brought someone to break into my mansion yesterday and seek revenge on me.
If I hadn't given him a few precious calligraphy and paintings, promised him to marry his daughter, and had dinner him in the evening to make amends for his sins, he would have given up. Otherwise, Your Majesty won't be able to see Weichen today! ”
After Rocky finished speaking, Ling Tianmu's body softened, and he didn't expect that there was such a tortuous thing in it. He looked at Rocky's eyes, and he also became cold: "Rocky, you are collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country!" ”
"Yes, the minister is confused for a while, please punish Your Majesty!"
"You ......" Ling Tianmu, who wanted to severely reprimand Rocky, instantly sensed that something was wrong, Rocky's move was a traitor to the enemy, but the previous move to send the Guiyi Army to Liangzhou should also be regarded as a traitor to the enemy, so wouldn't he, the emperor, also collaborate with the enemy and betray the country!
Also, those ministers who spoke for Mo Feng are also so abnormal today, can it be said that they are also ...... Ling Tianmu didn't dare to think about it anymore, if he thought about it any longer, the monarchs and ministers of the entire Heavenly Star Empire would become hypocrites who framed Zhongliang. This ugly thing that he thought he was about to forget now seems to have resurfaced in front of his eyes.
This is the case and will never be mentioned again. Since you have already married Luo Qingyao to Mo Feng, then he will naturally not poke this matter out again, and Zhao Wutang should also look at Mo Feng's face and will not pursue this matter again. It's just that if you do it again next time, don't ignore the decades of old love and take your head. ”
"Thank Your Majesty for not killing, I will never dare to have a next time!" Rocky burst into tears and wept silently.
"Alright, let's go down! Let me be quiet! ”
"No!"
With Rocky's retreat, Ling Tianmu was the only one left in the hall, and he had been rewarding the court, but he actually came out like this, and some messy things were involved. If it weren't for Rocky's "selling his daughter" to solve the matter, he might have a headache! Now, he only hopes that Mo Feng will return to Liangzhou soon, and there will be no more moths.
