Chapter 625
In Chang'an City, there were several killings overnight. The target of the raid was none other than the place where the kings of the Western Regions had just settled down from thousands of miles away.
Chang'an, who was the first to receive the news, was shocked, such a thing happened at such a critical time, it was almost life-threatening!
And when he gathered people to rush to the scene overnight, he found that the situation was far more serious than he imagined. Ren Kuan was stunned as he watched the blood-drenched situation, and his heart pounded suddenly. It is foreseeable that an inevitable storm will be formed from this.
As VIPs, the people of the Western Regions were arranged in exclusive places under the management of Guanglu Temple. It is not very far from Weiyang Palace, and it is convenient to participate in various summoning activities of His Majesty the Emperor at any time.
Including the entourage, the huge team of nearly 1,000 people still made each division quite brainless. It's finally arranged. But who would have thought that just last night, two or three hundred unidentified outlaws rushed in, killing people when they saw them, and robbing things when they saw them, and they were all highly skilled, and the personnel in charge of the guards were not their opponents. Coming and going like the wind, in a very short time, caused huge casualties. Then he calmly walked away and disappeared into the middle of the night in Chang'an City.
Before dawn, the brigade that rushed to hear the news had already surrounded the place. After an inventory, it was found that the property damage was serious, which was secondary. What is particularly shocking is that, in addition to the casualties of his retinue and nobles, a total of two kings of small countries in the Western Regions were killed in this raid, and another was seriously injured.
It's a shocking event! In Chang'an City, under the nose of today's son, the emperor had just held a grand welcome banquet, and these distinguished guests who had returned from afar were treated so horribly, no matter what the purpose of these people was, they would definitely cause a monstrous disaster.
In a heavy mood, there was no surprise to those present, and His Majesty the Emperor soon learned the news. In the words that followed, there was only one simple sentence.
"Within three days, this case will be solved! Otherwise, from the prime minister down, they will all be punished according to the law! ”
The emperor's anger can already be seen in these harshly worded words. All the courtiers were frightened, and according to the character of today's son, this was definitely not just a casual talk. If you really can't investigate and understand this matter in the shortest possible time, then there will really be a large number of unlucky ghosts to accompany the burial.
The dignitaries of the countries of the Western Regions naturally had to be appeased first. The officials who were worried about their future fate didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly cleaned up the mess and comforted the injured. And some of the frightened kings of the Western Regions never thought that such a thing would happen in a glorious imperial capital like Chang'an. Some of the more thoughtful kings and his nobles were apprehensive, and whispered in private, and panic and some remorse gradually grew.
Soon after, an order came from the palace. There is an edict, the ministers of the three princes and the nine kings, and all the princes and generals in Chang'an, immediately go to the Hanyuan Palace, and the emperor will personally inquire and discuss the follow-up matters on this matter.
Everyone knows the seriousness of this matter. It is extremely rare for the emperor to attach such importance to the large-scale gathering of ministers on days that are not court meetings. No one dared to slack off, and with a nervous mood, the gate of Weiyang Palace was opened, and all kinds of people came one after another.
Jiang Chong, who was dressed in embroidered clothes and guards, had already taken people to see the scene, but he did not express any opinions at that time. Instead, he left quietly.
Now, except in the awe-inspiring hearts of the subordinates of the embroidered guards, I am afraid that not many people really know that this young commander is a hidden master. And when all this is understood, the person who is the enemy of it may not have the opportunity to regret it again.
When Jiang Chong re-entered Weiyang Palace, he saw that the Great Commander of Xifengwei not far away glanced coldly at this side after arranging the guard task, and then turned around and left. Feeling the hostility in the other party's eyes, he looked at the back and snorted softly.
Emperor Liu Che was very angry, and Long Yan was furious and lost his temper. After listening to the detailed report, he looked at Prime Minister Gongsun Hong, who bowed his head and asked for guilt, and wanted to give an order to let this old guy who has always been pretending to be confused in recent years get out of here! However, he held back again.
"The incident happened suddenly, and the gangsters went crazy. Although the prime minister is also at fault, but there are so many things and a thousand things, it is inevitable that he will not be able to take care of them, so I will not punish him this time. ”
The voice above the Nine Dragons Golden Steps was very cold, making people tremble in their hearts. Prime Minister Sun Hong, who is already in his seventies, has a blank face, and there are words of suffering in his heart. He actually wanted to take this opportunity to get away and never be the prime minister of this nominal man again.
However, the emperor still refused to let him go! It seems that he is going to die of old age in this position. This emperor's wrist is really clever! Although the ancestral system will not be changed and the position of prime minister will be abolished, but putting an old and decrepit person in that seat will do nothing...... But it's exactly what he's trying to do.
Although Prime Minister Sun Hong understands everything in his heart, he can't see through it and can't say it, isn't this how he has come over after so many years? Now his only extravagant hope is that he hopes that His Majesty the Emperor will think of his hard work and resentment as an old scalper, and hope that he will have a good death when the time comes.
Although he saw through the struggle for power, he looked down on the situation. However, others are very obsessed with their hearts. No, in the face of the emperor's subsequent questioning, some people seemed to see an opportunity, and the attack was launched with personal grudges.
"Your Majesty, the attack on the VIPs in the Western Regions that happened last night is indeed appalling. This is something that I have never had in the years of the Han Dynasty...... However, although it happened suddenly, it could have been completely avoided. ”
The reason why Zhang Tang, the imperial historian, was in a hurry to jump out and perform was because he never missed any opportunity. Whether it's the chance to be on top or the chance to hit the opponent, he'll take it.
The emperor glanced at it majestically, signaling that he would say it if he had something to say, and there was no need to beat around the bush. Zhang Tang shook his spirits, coughed lightly, and began to perform.
"There's a reason why the minister said that. Your Majesty should know that the night patrol in Chang'an City, in the past, should have been completed by the Chang'an Mansion and the patrol guards. Later, His Majesty abolished the patrol guards, and assigned this important responsibility to General Jiumen. Since the Nine Cavalry took on this responsibility, they have been doing a good job, and there has never been a major bad incident. But now, because General Li, the general of the Nine Gates, is gone, His Majesty has not yet approved the new appointment...... The Nine Cavalry temporarily lost their command, and in the rush of an emergency, they were too slow to react, so it caused such a serious consequence, but it has a lot to do with it......! ”
Zhang Tang talked eloquently, as if he was just stating a very normal thing. However, many people can't help but be amazed when they hear it. There is a murderous motive hidden in it, and this imperial historian, who has always been known for his narrow-mindedness, really spares no effort to seize every opportunity and wants to put his political enemies to death!
"I see what you mean...... However, now is not the time to pursue the matter. Doctor Goshi, do you have a way to find out who did this? ”
Emperor Liu Che's brows furrowed. The thorn in his heart was touched again, and he couldn't help but feel a faint pain. Yuan Zhao...... This guy, he still hasn't figured out what kind of punishment is the most appropriate for him.
Although Zhang Tang lowered his head to do something, his keen eyes still detected something from the emperor's face. That's enough! He just wants to continue to dig that thorn deeper in the emperor's heart...... Yuan Zhao, this time you will have to peel off the skin even if you don't die!
"Your Majesty is requested to hand over this matter to the Great Han Imperial Governor's Mansion for disposal. I believe that Lord Tingwei will definitely be able to give His Majesty a satisfactory answer. ”
Zhang Tang quietly glanced at Wei Ji, the Great Han Tingwei who was standing not far from him. Wei Ji was shocked in his heart, he was originally very reluctant to take this hot potato, but since it was his duty, and now it was recommended by Lord Yushi as a court alliance, he naturally couldn't retreat.
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to ask for orders and lead the people of the Tingwei Mansion to investigate this matter with all their might!"
"Good! I am here in front of all the civil and military officials, to give the Tingwei Mansion special powers, this time no matter who is involved, we must investigate to the end, so that the truth will be revealed to the world! ”
"The Minister's Decree ......!"
The emperor rubbed his forehead, and suddenly felt some throbbing in his heart, I don't know what the reason was, he was in high spirits, but his body was very hot. This is the second time in the past few days. He waved his hand impatiently and stepped away.
When he walked out of the palace gate, Wei Ji fell behind, quietly pulled the placket of Tang's clothes, and asked in a low voice full of doubts.
"Such a big event is extraordinary. Just wait until the emperor assigns it, why did Zhang Gong ask me to take the initiative to ask Ying to take over this errand? What if ......?"
Zhang Tang smiled slightly, and his smile was a little mysterious. He looked at the fact that everyone else had already walked away, and there was no one left or right, so he patted the shoulder of the court captain who he had pulled up with one hand, and whispered in his ear.
"No need to worry...... What's the secret in this...... Hehe! If possible, I hope you can take this opportunity to crucify our common enemy once and for all! At that time, even if the emperor wants to protect him, I am afraid that there will be nothing he can do in front of the public opinion of the world......! Got it? ”
"I see! Zhang Gong's foresight is admirable! Merely...... What should we do with those forces in the shadows? ”
"The big husband should be decided! The knife that kills is useless after killing, so let them go where they need to go! ”
