There was silence in the imperial study for a while, Long Tai did not speak, and several important ministers did not speak. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Jingli is now in chaos, you are all important ministers of the imperial court, pillars of the empire, why don't you say anything?" The little emperor glanced at several ministers and said lightly.

Although he has just ascended the throne and is still young, there is a calm and steady wind in his words and deeds.

Marquis Zhongyi is an auxiliary minister, and he is already the number one minister of the current imperial court, Longtai said this, Marquis Zhongyi finally took two steps from Qi Ning's side, walked to the middle, bowed down and said: "Qi Qi Sheng, this is not a big deal, the soldiers and horses have been mobilized, the commotion in the capital will soon subside, and the Shengshang does not have to worry too much." ”

Long Tai frowned and said, "This matter is unprecedented, how can I not be worried?" ”

Simon Shenhou finally stood up and said: "The Holy One, the root has been found, and once you know the root, there is a way to deal with it." The ministers made the saint worried, it was really the incompetence of the ministers, and he asked the saint to condemn him! ”

"At this time, there is no need to talk about any sin first." Long Tai said: "Ximen Shenhou, I ask you, you said earlier that this incident has something to do with a Miao cult in Bashu, can you be sure?" ”

"Returning to the Holy Shrine, the Shenhou Mansion found that there was a poison in the corpse that was only produced in the Yin and Yang Realm of Baishagang in the West Ridge of Bashu, and that was the territory of the Baimiao people." Ximen Shenhou replied: "Among the Bai Miao people, there is a person named Qiu Qianyi, this person is known as the Jiuxi Poison King, known as the first poison master in Bashu, this poison can only be refined by him. ”

Long Tai frowned: "Swing easy? ”

"Exactly." Ximen Shenhou said: "As far as the minister knows, Swing Yi should be a member of the Black Lotus Holy Sect, and the Black Lotus Holy Sect is a cult founded by the Miao people. ”

Long Tai asked, "In this way, this chaos in the capital is indeed the work of the Black Lotus Holy Sect?" ”

King Huainan had already sneered at this time: "Your Majesty, the name of the Black Lotus Holy Sect has also been heard of by the ministers. ”

Long Tai looked at King Huainan with a slightly respectful look on his face, and asked, "Uncle Huang also knows about the Black Lotus Holy Sect?" ”

Qi Ning peeked over, and saw that Longtai's face was respectful, his tone was soft, and he smiled secretly in his heart, only thinking that this little emperor was also an acting school.

King Huainan was obviously still very satisfied with Longtai's attitude, and nodded: "I know a little bit about it." The Black Lotus Holy Sect was located in a remote area, so the imperial court may have been negligent all along. He glanced at Ximen Wuxian and said with a smile: "The Shenhou Mansion of the Shenhou is probably not clear about the Black Lotus Holy Sect. ”

Ximen Wuxian arched his hand and said: "What the prince said is true." The Black Lotus Holy Sect is located in a remote area, and it rarely goes to the Central Plains area, it has always been active in the southwest area of Bashu, and it is low-key, and the Shenhou Mansion really doesn't know much about them. The duty of the Shenhou Mansion is to supervise and control the forces on the rivers and lakes, but if there is any violation of the laws and regulations of the imperial court or even disturbing the local peace, the Shenhou Mansion will try its best to deal with it, this Black Lotus Holy Sect has always been hidden, and the Shenhou Mansion has indeed not spent too much manpower and financial resources on them. ”

Long Tai had already asked, "Uncle Huang, how much do you know about the Black Lotus Holy Sect?" ”

"It's not much, actually." King Huainan said: "Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, this Black Lotus Holy Sect has existed for more than twenty years, and it was founded by the Black Miao people. This black Miao man .......! He smiled coldly: "Neglected to educate, vicious and brutal, the Miao people have seventy-two holes, this black Miao people are the first in strength among the seedlings, and these people always want to divide one side and become a country of their own, but after all, the strength cannot compete with my Great Chu Empire, but they dare not raise the anti-flag publicly." ”

"They're going to rebel?" Longtai frowned.

King Huainan said with a smile: "The people of the wilderness have never known the majesty of the sky, and what they do is not the same as that of our race, and it is not uncommon for those people to have different aspirations. After a pause, he said, "This Black Lotus Holy Sect, as far as I know, is a group of anti-people who want to stand on their own feet have gathered. There are 100,000 mountains in Bashu, the mountains are continuous, the Miao people have seventy-two holes, there are dozens of tribes that are raw and ripe, and they have always been intrigues with each other, and the purpose of the Black Lotus Holy Sect is to gather all the Miao people under their banner, and when the strength grows, they will raise troops to rebel. ”

"The Black Lotus Holy Sect is really whimsical." The first gray-haired old minister under the king of Huainan sneered: "Even if all the Miao people are combined, it is only a few hundred thousand people, what strength do you have to rebel?" ”

King Huainan smiled: "Lord Lu, you can't say that. Those Miao people are very familiar with the environment of Bashu, and they are not a rabble, if they really want to turn it around, although the court will not be afraid, but it is also a big trouble. After a pause, he said: "When the old marquis of Jinyi sent troops to conquer Bashu, if it wasn't for the help of the Miao people, it wouldn't have been so smooth." Speaking of this, he glanced at Qi Ning with a smile.

Qi Ning also knew the past when the old Marquis of Jinyi punished Shu, so the Qi family of the Marquis of Jinyi and the Li family of the King of Shu also formed a grudge.

He remained silent, but he already had a faint feeling in his heart that the Black Lotus Holy Sect was only afraid that it would be unlucky this time.

At this moment, I heard a voice from outside: "Wuxiang Marquis, the commander of the Tiger God Battalion begging to see!" ”

Immediately, I saw Su Yu hurriedly coming in, followed by Xue Lingfeng, the leader of the Tiger God Battalion.

The two stepped forward to greet each other, and Longtai frowned slightly, and only said, "Flatten!" ”

Su Yu got up and arched his hand to explain: "Back to the Holy Lord, the mansion is ..... Something happened in the house, and after the minister received the will, he was late, and asked the saint to surrender his sin! ”

Qi Ning was relieved at this time, secretly thinking that today's small court meeting would summon him over, after all, this Su Yu is also one of the four marquises, and it is impossible to ignore him, but it turned out that this guy was late.

Xue Lingfeng stood as straight as a javelin as always, everyone present was an important minister of the imperial court, although he was the commander of the Tiger God Battalion, he had the lowest status among the officials in the imperial study, and could only stand at the bottom.

Su Yu was sweaty on his forehead, panting, it seemed that he was also rushing all the way, after getting up, he looked left and right, hesitated, and finally walked to the bottom of Qi Ning.

Qi Ning knew that although the four hereditary candidates had the same status, they were still high and low, with the Marquis of Zhongyi ranking first among the four marquis, while the Marquis of Jinyi was ranked second, and the Marquis of Wuxiang was at the bottom.

When he saw Su Yu standing on his side, he knew that the Golden Daohou had not come over after all, otherwise it would definitely be the Golden Daohou standing next to him.

He couldn't help but glance at Su Yu, then frowned, and his face changed slightly.

Su Yu also happened to look at him at this time, and when he saw Qi Ning frowning, he only thought that Qi Ning was disgusted with him, sneered, and turned his face away.

But I heard the official surnamed Lu ask in a deep voice: "Xue Lingfeng, last night the Tiger God Battalion deployed troops to block the streets of the capital, but you gave the order?" ”

Xue Lingfeng arched his hand and said: "My lord, I learned that someone was making trouble on the street, so I dispatched manpower to protect the order in Beijing. ”

Qi Ning thought to himself, it seems that this surnamed Lu is going to show his knife and ask Xue Lingfeng for his guilt.

Xue Lingfeng claimed to be humble in front of this person, but he didn't know what this person was from.

"I've learned that last night was nothing more than a bunch of beggars roaming the streets." Although Lord Lu is already old, his waist is very straight, and his eyes have not lost their sharpness because of his age, "A group of beggars are going to make a big move and transfer hundreds of soldiers from the Tiger God Battalion, this is too reckless, right?" ”

Xue Lingfeng's angular face was calm and calm, and he said: "Where the duty is, I don't dare to be negligent in the slightest." ”

"Without the emperor's will, you mobilized hundreds of people, this is in the capital, didn't you think it would cause a commotion?" Master Lu said coldly: "When I heard the movement last night, I thought it was someone in Beijing who rebelled. ”

Xue Lingfeng's body shook slightly, and he quickly said: "It's a dereliction of duty, please condemn the saint!" ”

"Holy Lord, no matter what, as the commander of the Tiger God Battalion in the garrison capital, without the will of the Holy Lord, he transferred troops without authorization, violating the law of the country, if he is not punished, I am afraid that the people will not be convinced." Lord Lu immediately said to Long Tai: "Please also ask the Holy Mingjian!" ”

Qi Ning frowned, his eyes showing a chill.

He admired Xue Lingfeng a little more at this time, Xue Lingfeng only slightly mobilized a few hundred people last night, and some people immediately attacked today, if a large number of troops and horses were really mobilized last night to blockade the capital, today's result is only afraid that it will be more serious.

"Xue Lingfeng, mobilizing soldiers and horses to block the streets of the capital, is it your own idea, or is there something else hidden?" Another person under Lord Lu said in a deep voice: "You have always been cautious, you have led the Tiger God Camp for many years, and you have not made any mistakes, why did you arbitrarily dictate yourself this time?" ”

Qi Ning sneered in his heart, knowing that the man had already pointed the finger at him.

Xue Lingfeng's expression was solemn, but his voice was very calm: "I don't dare to arbitrarily exercise my power, just to ensure the safety of the capital." Turning to Longtai: "The saint, the subordinate ministers are loyal to the country, and they have no intention of arbitrarily exercising power and self-determination." ”

Long Tai hadn't spoken yet, but he heard Qi Ning already say lightly: "Ladies and gentlemen, if it weren't for Commander Xue's early preparations, the situation in the capital would probably be even worse now." Now that hundreds of people in the city are threatened by the epidemic, you are not planning how to solve this crisis, but you are here to repeatedly hold Commander Xue accountable, don't you know what is the priority? ”

Immediately all eyes were on him.

Lord Lu's face was ugly, and he said lightly: "Marquis Jinyi, the epidemic is indeed very important, but isn't the royal law of the imperial court important?" Xue Lingfeng is the commander of the Tiger God Battalion, his position is not trivial, and he must be cautious, this time without a holy decree, is it not an extremely serious crime to transfer troops without authorization? He snorted coldly and said, "If the leading generals can transfer troops without authorization regardless of the laws of the imperial court, can the Marquis of Jinyi think about the consequences?" ”

"Ben Hou knows what Lord Lu means." Qi Ning said with a smile: "Lord Lu's dedication to upholding the laws of the imperial court is admirable. Glancing at the person under him, he said: "Someone asked Xue Lingfeng whether it was out of his intention to transfer troops without authorization, and Ben Hou said it directly, he mobilized soldiers and horses, and it was Ben Hou who rushed to his mansion with 100,000 people, and repeatedly knew the benefits, and Xue Commander reluctantly transferred some soldiers and horses in order to protect the capital. After a pause, he said slowly: "If there are any other questions to ask, Ben Hou will answer them together." ”
