Chapter 184: Concubine Chen's Niangniang Arrives!
"Zhao Jing, you are so demagoguery! If General Ben is really treasonous, how can he defend Huajing here with all the soldiers? "Liu Shiyuan is so angry, what's going on with Gongsun You?
"My father won't tell you this nonsense, and when you repel these people, someone will confront you!" Zhao Jing suddenly thought of something, and no longer said more to Liu Shiyuan, but concentrated on the enemy. And although Liu Shiyuan was flustered because of his words, it was impossible for him to do anything else in front of so many soldiers.
For some reason, Liu Shiyuan always felt that Zhao Jing's visit this time was unusual.
After an hour and a half, the shouting outside the city gradually subsided. Zhao Jing rode on a horse and stood in front of the city gate, he looked up at the willow stone edge on the city tower.
"What, isn't General Liu going to open the door to Ben?" There was a thick sense of sarcasm in his words.
"How so? An Guogong is a meritorious minister of our country. Don't open the city gate yet to welcome An Guogong into the city! During that time, Liu Shiyuan had also thought of a way to deal with it.
He whispered to his cronies: "Order someone to pass a hundred officials into the palace, and then tell the guards that it's time to do it, and let them get ready." ”
After speaking, Liu Shiyuan hurriedly walked down the city tower and greeted him.
"An Guogong has worked hard all the way, this king has already asked people to arrange banquets and hospitality in the palace, please enter the palace first, presumably everyone has been waiting for a long time."
Zhao Jing had already guessed what Liu Shiyuan wanted to do, so he simply followed his wishes, anyway, with that person here, he would definitely have the last laugh, Liu Shiyuan was dead!
"Then thank you, General Liu. Just now outside the city, my father was also anxious, and he accidentally said too much, so don't blame him. He was not in a hurry to tear his face with him at this time, so Zhao Jing responded with a smile.
"Where, An Guogong is too worried, please."
Saying that, Liu Shiyuan used a cavalry horse, and the two of them rode back to the palace.
On the palace side, although it was a temporary banquet, none of those people actually went to eat, so these are not very important. In the ascending palace, Liu Shiyuan sat under the dragon chair, before the banquet, he had to solve some problems first, and it would be better if he could put Zhao Jing to death.
And the people on Zhao Jing's side were relieved to see him come back. However, thinking that they failed to prevent Liu Shiyuan from becoming the regent, they felt a little ashamed of Zhao Jing in their hearts.
Fortunately, after everyone finished greetings, the people from the Liu Shiyuan faction couldn't help but start questioning Zhao Jing.
"An Guogong helped defend Huajing and defeated those Languo people, which is a gratifying thing at this time. However, the minister thought that it was also true that An Guogong did not respect the edict. At the beginning of the year, the snow disaster was raging, and the emperor sent An Guogong out for fear of chaos on the border. ”
Because Li Yiqian has passed away, the emperor here is naturally referring to him.
"Humph! This duke went to the border pass by the edict of the first emperor, and after catching a spy of the Lan country, he learned that there would be chaos in Beijing, so he led the troops back to Beijing, but he didn't expect it to be a step too late, so that the first emperor was poisoned by you! Fortunately, Bengong was able to save Huajing in time, otherwise you would have really let your plot succeed! ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Jing was also very angry. He can't forget the scene he saw in front of the city gate in his life, Liu Shiyuan really dared to let the people of Lan Guo enter the country, fortunately he didn't do anything wrong, otherwise he would be a sinner in Huaguo, even if he died, he would not have the face to see the ancestors and ancestors.
"In any case, it was An Guogong who arrived in time to save Huajing today, so don't mention this matter again." At this time, Wang Song stood up and wanted to be a peacemaker, and now Huaguo must not be in chaos from within. Today's events must not be accidental, they still have to make arrangements as soon as possible.
"This king sees that the prime minister is reasonable, so don't say it again. If it weren't for An Guogong, where would we be able to sit here and have a feast now? Liu Shiyuan didn't know for what purpose he also said.
But he didn't expect that he didn't want to pursue Zhao Jing, but Zhao Jing didn't want to let him go.
"This king? When did General Yoo become king? Why didn't my father know? Zhao Jing's tone was full of disdain.
"Bold! How can you be presumptuous in the presence of the regent? "This is another person who is in a hurry to pat himself on the back.
"You're bold! Bengong talked to General Liu, what are you, and you dare to teach Bengong a lesson? Zhao Jing was not used to that person at all, so he immediately went back.
That person was so angry that he gasped, but he didn't dare to say anything more, because what Zhao Jing said was the truth.
Liu Shiyuan was not angry, and said generously: "An Guogong is in a hurry, and it is not surprising that he doesn't know this." The first emperor was assassinated and died of poisoning, leaving only the eldest prince who was less than a year old. Therefore, all the great people let this king do this regent to support political affairs, and when the eldest prince can make decisions, this king will naturally not hold on to power. ”
"Hmph, did you say that the first emperor died when he died? What about the evidence? The emperor was assassinated, you don't want to track down the real culprit, but you want to put the power of the court in your hands first, this is too ugly! In my father's opinion, it is clear that you are colluding with Languo and want to take the opportunity to annex our Huaguo! Zhao Jing's words were loud and smashed into the hearts of many officials.
yes, they've been ignoring this issue before. The emperor died, but why didn't the regent trace it at all? Does this really have anything to do with him? Many people showed scrutinizing eyes.
"How bold are you to slander this king? If this king is really entangled with the people of Lan Kingdom, how can he lead troops to stop them on the city tower? Liu Shiyuan felt uncomfortable listening to Zhao Jing's words, Xu was because he had endured it for too many years, and he didn't want to be polite to this Zhao Jing at all now. In this situation, no matter how you look at it, he is in the upper hand, and he doesn't know where Zhao Jing got the courage to choke with himself.
"Am I bold? Hehe, no matter how bold this duke is, he didn't collude with the people of Lan Kingdom and assassinate the emperor! Liu Shiyuan, do you dare to swear to God that you don't know anything about it? Zhao Jing suddenly brought the topic to the assassination.
Liu Shiyuan's heart was excited, and he didn't know if Zhao Jing just wanted to use this to bring him down or if he really had any evidence. He carefully observed Zhao Jing's expression, but Zhao Jing was also a person who had been trained in the court for many years, how could he let him guess his mind so easily.
"What is there that this king should not dare? This king swears to heaven that if there is any attempt to kill the emperor, he will not die a good death! "Liu Shiyuan has never believed in these things, if these gods and ghosts really exist, then he killed so many people on the battlefield, he would not have died well, how could he care about this trivial matter.
Zhao Jingi took Liu Shiyuan's oath and laughed mockingly. "Hahahaha, General Liu is really a ruthless person, but it's a pity that this duke has a certificate, and he can prove that everything you said is false! Would the general dare to confront him face to face? ”
As soon as his words came out, Liu Shiyuan quickly recalled his plan in his mind at that time, and he didn't feel that there was anything missing. At least, absolutely no substantial evidence remained. Thinking of this, Liu Shiyuan felt great peace in his heart.
"General Ben is acting upright and sitting up straight, so he is naturally not afraid of your so-called witness. Just let him come up. But what if he couldn't do those things for the king? So is An Guogong also responsible for slandering this king? Liu Shiyuan naturally won't let Zhao Jing show off in vain, he has already thought about it, no matter what the result is, he will give that person a crime, and then treat Zhao Jing a big crime of disrespect.
"Hmph, if I can't prove my father's words, then I will ask myself to resign, and where the traitorous minister is in power, I won't wait!" Zhao Jing is also a temperamental person, if he is allowed to work under Liu Shiyuan in the future, then he will never be able to bear it, rather than this, it is better to leave the court.
"Okay, Duke An Guo doesn't want to break his promise! Your Excellency is the witness! Liu Shiyuan was afraid that Zhao Jing would regret it, so he simply pulled the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to testify.
And what about those ministers of civil and military affairs? In fact, they were also very puzzled in their hearts, if they wanted to say that what Liu Shiyuan said was a lie, but since he dared to confront him, it showed that he must be sure in his heart, otherwise once it was proved that what Zhao Jing said was true, then he would be charged with treason and murder. But to say that Zhao Jing is lying, but he will definitely not make such a play for the sake of resignation. So they can't tell which one is telling the truth.
"Please also ask An Guogong to call your witnesses." Seeing that none of them had any intention of speaking, Wang Song came out to temporarily play the role of "judge".
"Prime Minister, don't worry, the witnesses of this duke are not here, and we need to wait a while." For some reason, Zhao Jing respectfully bowed to Wang Song, which was unprecedented.
"Haha, Zhao Jing, you old puppet won't have only your mouth, right? It's just ridiculous and generous! If you admit it as soon as possible without evidence, this king will not embarrass you, as long as you leave. Liu Shiyuan listened to his words, and his heart was about to laugh.
"Hmph, the witness of this duke is not outside the palace, but in the palace, and I have already asked Gonggong Wen to invite him just now." Things have come to this point, and Zhao Jing doesn't want to be like him. Why bother with a dying man?
Then, the ascension palace fell into a deathly silence, and no matter which faction it was, they didn't speak again at this time. It's just that many people are secretly making eye contact, and Liu Shiyuan doesn't know what he's thinking with his eyes closed.
"Concubine Chen's mother has arrived-" I don't know when, Wen Lin's singing harmony came from outside the hall.
It's just that the title he taught made Liu Shiyuan shake suddenly. Concubine Chen! Isn't she already dead? Yang'er has obviously killed her, how could it be? Liu Shiyuan felt as if things were out of his control, and from the moment he saw Zhao Jing on the city tower, he felt very wrong.
Other people were no less shocked than him, especially Lin Yaxin's father, Liu Ruchun. Yesterday, the news of Lin Yaxin's martyrdom with the emperor reached the house, and Lin's mother fainted at that time, although he was very calm, but the pain in his heart was not much less than that of his wife, because it was also his daughter. And who could tell him why the man standing in the main hall looked so much like his daughter.
