Text Chapter 696 Hanyuan Palace

In the historical records, the person who died by hitting the pillar in front of the court was called the lonely minister. Of course, Emperor Liu Che would not want to see such a figure appear in his court. Because, only mediocre kings have lonely ministers stained with blood. He Liu Che is a self-proclaimed holy lord, and he wants to be worthy of the three emperors and the five emperors.

Wei Qihou Dou Ying first stood up to defend the prince, and his rhetoric was fierce, and he did not hesitate to die to force him. After several confrontations, the anger in the emperor's heart was even worse. He couldn't say anything, and shouted loudly to order the guards in front of the palace to arrest this stubborn old guy first, so that he would not be entangled here.

Treating the old minister in such a way, the emperor did not want to do this. However, today's situation was special, and he didn't want to disrupt his plan because of Dou Ying's obstruction.

The old man was pushed and shoved by the guards and pushed out of the hall, and he was so angry that he yelled like thunder, saying that he would not go out. The emperor waved his hand impatiently, and ordered the guards to take him aside first, so that he could see it clearly for a while, so as to save the old ministers from being unconvinced.

Being troubled by Dou Ying like this, the emperor's mind was a little confused. He calmed down for a moment, and saw that many people below were talking to each other, whispering something. I couldn't help but slap the imperial case with my hand and snorted coldly.

"What? Is there anyone else who wants to say anything now? Hum! ”

In the oppressive silence, someone glanced up at the emperor and saw that his face was full of anger. Then he stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out in high spirits.

"Your Majesty, an old minister like Wei Qihou not only doesn't know how to advance or retreat, but roars at the court and acts recklessly. Delusional attempts to interfere with the court's plans with a corrupt body, I really don't know what to do! Your Majesty, as a great patriarch, how can you turn a blind eye? Please give a decree to your Majesty and deal with it strictly!"

Standing in the court, Dazong Zheng Liu didn't know, and looked at Dou Ying who was blowing his beard and glaring at him with contempt, and deliberately showed a provocative look on his face. A toothless tiger is not as good as a cat! No matter how majestic you were back then, you don't need to bird him now!

The influence of the royal family is not insignificant. As soon as he stood up, more than a dozen ministers immediately echoed him, and they all denounced Dou Ying to strengthen his momentum.

But the emperor did not want to stop there. Although he knew that Liu Buzhi was trying to help him fight against those who disagreed, he didn't need to rush at this time. Seeing Dou Ying standing up again, he waved his hand and was about to speak. Unexpectedly, the attitude of Liu Buzhi and others had already angered one person. The upright veteran stepped out of the crowd and shouted loudly with his halberd fingers.

"Shaft! What is a decaying body? When the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms persecuted Chang'an, Wei Qihou was the general, and together with Zhou Yafu, he quelled the rebellion on the east and west roads, and made a contribution to rebuilding the society. Where were you at that time? How dare you be so rude today! If it weren't for the Son of Heaven, I wouldn't be able to spare you today! ”

Emperor Liu Che and everyone watched in a flash, the white-haired veteran was none other than Li Guangye, the Marquis of Zhenbei! Although the veteran is old, his majesty has not diminished. Originally, when I came to the court today, I was holding my stomach, and I was worried that I couldn't find an excuse to vent. Liu Buzhi The arrogant attitude of these people is just adding fuel to the fire, where can he still endure it.

Seeing Li Guang jump out again, the emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't shout loudly, but hung down his sleeves, not knowing what he was thinking, sitting firmly on a high place, and watching from the sidelines. Liu Buzhi was scolded, not only did he not get angry, but a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He only glanced at the emperor's attitude, and he already knew it in his heart. The emperor is not angry, but to wait and see how many people will jump out! Hum! After a while, when the ledger is settled, you people will have good fruit to eat!

Thinking of this, he walked a few steps closer to Li Guang without smiling, pointed to his face with a finger, and asked rhetorically.

"What? Isn't there anything about General Li who is not convinced? In Hanyuan Palace, why do you still want to beat people?"

Liu didn't know the background of the clan, he believed that he was noble, and he was in charge of the great sect, and in the past, for various reasons, he was not interested in Empress Wei and the prince's family. This turmoil against the prince was the first to be initiated by him, so he adopted a hostile attitude towards everyone who might become the prince's helper. Although Li Guang is a famous general in the world, he does not dare to really move a finger of himself.

However, he was wrong. In the old days, maybe the veteran wouldn't have done anything to him. But today is different, before going to the Hanyuan Palace, Li Guang was already ready to fight with all his might. I am not afraid of the wrath of the Son of Heaven, will I be afraid of him as a great sect! Before Liu Buzhi's words fell, Li Guang had already sneered, and turned a big fist to slash his face! How can a well-pampered person withstand the strength of a ten-stone rhubarb bow? This great sect screamed, his face was full of flowers, he turned over and fell out of Zhangyu, and fell on his back to the sky.

The Manchu civil and military forces were in an uproar. Although it is said that the court beat the minister, it is not that no one has done it before. But the young marquis was young and impulsive, and it was forgivable. Li Guang once guarded Weiyang Palace as a guard for many years, and he was the one who most abided by the rules of the imperial court. But I didn't expect that I would be so irritable today, and I directly beat up Dazongzheng. And seeing that the blow was not light this time, Liu Buzhi fell to the ground and struggled in pain, and he didn't get up for half a day.

"Li Guang! Daring! A dignified prince, who dares to beat people in front of me, what kind of system is this? Aren't you afraid of being imprisoned? Hum! ”

Although Emperor Liu Che had a wait-and-see attitude for the time being, he suddenly saw that Li Guang did not say anything and made a move, if he didn't scold, no one would dare to do anything to this famous old general.

"Your Majesty! Since I have come to the temple today, I have no intention of being afraid of anything! Since ancient times, it has been difficult to die alone. I have experienced a hundred battles in my life, and it is not once or twice on the verge of life and death, and there is nothing to fear from death. What the veteran is afraid of, but this good situation that has been achieved by sacrificing countless soldiers will be ruined because of His Majesty's momentary confusion! Your Majesty...... I hope to think twice about the prince's affairs! ”

The veteran is brave and reprimands the king, which is something that very few people dare to do! He stood tall and white-haired, and obviously put life and death out of the way.

The ministers stared at each other with big eyes, and they had long felt that today's court was not peaceful. But how did you think that it was so exciting at the beginning! The emperor's face was gloomy like water, looking at Li Guang and Dou Ying, these two old guys jumped out in the lead, and he didn't expect it.

"The prince made a mess yesterday and caused trouble in Chang'an, and the whole people in Chang'an know it! Could it be that I have wronged him? Hum! As a veteran minister of the country, what are your intentions in forcing him to stand out? Could it be that there is some collusion behind this?! ”

Hearing the emperor say this, more than a dozen ministers stood up one after another and denounced Li Guang's rude behavior. And the big Zongzheng Liu who was beaten by him and his face was covered with blood After a simple treatment, he rushed over again with anger. He fell to the ground and tearfully begged His Majesty the Emperor to call the shots and severely punish the murderers who beat the ministers of state.

The commander of the embroidered guards standing next to him made Jiang Chong already eager to try. He kept looking at the emperor's eyes, and at the slightest hint, he would immediately order the guards to arrest people. These old guys, he has long been displeasing to the eye. If you want to achieve your ambitions, all of them are eradicated, and you can catch them all, so you can be very happy!

However, such an order, the emperor never exited. It is not so simple to punish the veteran generals in the army. Without conclusive evidence of a major crime, it is easy to arrest people, but once the confusion in the morale of the military is stirred, the gains outweigh the losses.

And seeing that the twenty or thirty ministers formed a joint encirclement of Dou Ying and Li Guang, Sima Xiangru, Zhongjun, and Dongfang Shuo finally couldn't bear it, stood up, and expressed their support. All of a sudden, Hanyuan Hall turned into a vegetable market, and the noise was irrepressible.

"Shut up! Where are the guards in front of the palace? Go! If there are those who dare to be noisy in the palace, there is no need to be merciful, and they will be beaten out with sticks! ”

Emperor Liu Che finally couldn't help it. Angry, but a little puzzled, he didn't personally ask about politics for just over a month, how did he feel that this court had changed? This is not the court he is familiar with, nor is it the ministers he is familiar with.

The anger of the Son of Heaven is not trivial. The noisy situation instantly quieted down, and the two camps were obvious, and each returned to his seat, glaring angrily, and refusing to give in to each other.

"Zhuqing, you don't have to argue anymore. Even if the demagogy in the palace was not mentioned before, it is undoubtedly true that the prince raised troops to attack the Suzaku Gate, right? Whatever he was trying to achieve, it was an unforgivable sin! What's more, he dared to collude with the border army and enter Chang'an without an order from the imperial court...... His heart can be punished! Many of you may be unconvinced, right? I just want to ask you, if the prince feels wronged, why didn't he come to me in person to defend himself? Is it impossible to come? Still afraid to come? Hum! ”

Everyone led by Sima Xiangru glanced at each other and sighed silently. The emperor said such a heart-wrenching remark, but it was a little difficult to refute it with reasonable evidence. In the face of danger, the crown prince did not defend himself to his father, but fled from Chang'an City to rely on the power of foreign ministers.

Seeing that everyone couldn't argue, Wei Qihou Dou Ying secretly gritted his teeth. Today, in order to help Yuan Zhao and the prince plead, he was determined to die. He was about to stand up again and speak out, but suddenly heard a loud voice from outside the palace gate entering the main hall.

"Your Majesty! Chen Yuanzhao and the prince asked to see each other and asked to enter the palace! ”

The breeze is not strong, the palace is majestic, and the thick red wall blocks the nobles and mortals. Although it was far away, everyone from the Vermilion Bird Gate to the Hanyuan Hall heard this sentence clearly, and countless eyes gathered everywhere, and they were all shocked in their hearts.

A eunuch in the palace ran in in a panic and reported to the emperor that the guards he had just gotten had come to report. Emperor Liu Che's expression was visibly relaxed, as if the result he had been hoping for was finally as he wished.

"Let them in! I want to hear what they have to say...... ”
