Chapter 194: Rehashing Old Accounts
It has been a long time since such a grand occasion has been encountered, after all, the two factions of the Clear Stream and the Turbid Stream are fighting endlessly, whether it is right or wrong for what you agree with, we must oppose it, and the reverse is the same, only a person with a special identity like Ye Ling can get the support of both sides and even a neutral small faction at the same time.
Huizong was also very happy, he had never seen the civil and military officials under his command so united, it seems that this Du Ling is really his own lucky general, he smiled and said: "Okay, good, since all Aiqing support Du Ling to take command, then this matter is decided, all the secretaries should be calm down." β
With an uproar, a large number of officials who had fallen like wheat just now hurriedly stood up again and returned to their positions, leaving only Ye Ling alone in the middle.
At this time, he continued: "Xiaguan deeply feels Your Majesty's great kindness, and your lordships love you, this time you will be the thieves who sweep away Qingzhou, but there are also two people under Xiaguan, and I want to recommend them as generals, and I hope Your Majesty will approve it." β
Huizong was in a very good mood at this time, and immediately asked Ye Ling to summon people, and soon Yue Fei and Shi Xiu, who were waiting outside the palace, were invited in.
As a result, the two of them caused a sensation as soon as they appeared on the stage, naturally because of Yue Fei, after all, he was the popular person of this year's martial champion before, and many military high-level officials, including Zong Ze, expressed a considerable degree of favor to him, but only because Yue Fei disappeared after the previous chaos, there was no way, to be honest, it is said that Zong Ze regretted it for a long time.
The first one to jump out was naturally Yang Jian, after all, he was also present at that time, and he was also the person in charge, so he immediately asked people to arrest Yue Fei, but was stopped by Ye Ling.
Huizong was also a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly asked the origin of the matter, it turned out that he didn't know what happened last time, Yang Jian hurriedly told this matter one by one, of course, there are all kinds of oil and vinegar.
Hearing that Yue Fei killed King Huizong of Xiaoliang, he couldn't help frowning slightly, this means that King Xiaoliang is still his cousin, and he is also a relative of the emperor, Yue Fei is a grassroots boy, this is not an inch, so he killed him, it is a little too bold!
Seeing Huizong's expression, many people immediately planned to echo Yang Jian and severely punish Yue Fei, but saw Ye Ling take a step ahead and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, Weichen was on the scene at the time, and this situation is not very consistent with what Lord Yang said." β

Then he told him about what happened that day, and he didn't talk nonsense like Yang Jian, but completely restored how aggressive King Xiao Liang was at that time, and he was not as good as others and had to mess around, and finally Yue Fei had to kill the other party by mistake, and then Yang Jian and King Liang indiscriminately sent people to chase and kill Yue Fei, and Fang Rui, the secretary of the Ministry of War, could testify.
And there were tens of thousands of spectators present that day, as long as they found some to come over and ask.
In the end, Ye Ling exerted his eloquence again, and said impassionedly: "Yue Fei killed King Xiaoliang by mistake for a while, but it was a mistake, but Weichen thinks that he is a rare talent, if such a talent is lost like this, or even imprisoned, it is completely a loss for the country, why not let him make meritorious service and serve the country?" β
As soon as his words fell, he saw Zong Ze raise his arms and exclaimed: "What Lord Du said is very true, the martial arts competition is an important event for the selection of talents for the country, even the princes and nobles must not have privileges, otherwise what do the heroes of the world do?" In the future, all the battles will be directly handed over to the children of the nobles, and the old ministers will second. β
With Zong Ze's greeting, the military generals also stood up one after another to support Yue Fei, they have been suppressed by civil officials and nobles for too long, and now seeing Ye Ling take the initiative to stand up and confront a big traitor like Yang Jian, and with the support of an old-timer like Zong Ze, of course they will not sit idly by!
Su Yuanjing made a look, and the Qingliu officials also stood up to support Ye Ling, and even several imperial historians jumped out to impeach King Liang and Yang Jian for bending the law for personal gain, which was originally their responsibility and authority.
In the end, after Fang Yue, the secretary of the military department, stood up and said a fair word, this dispute finally came to an end, and Huizong also nodded slowly, and personally pardoned Yue Fei's previous crimes, and let him serve under Ye Ling, and make meritorious contributions.
Huizong's words are tantamount to closing the coffin, no matter how dissatisfied Yang Jian or even King Liang is, he can't say anything, otherwise it will be a bully, they all glared at Yue Fei, the initiator, fiercely, and then glared at Ye Ling, who was supporting him behind him, before returning to his original position.
Su Yuanjing and the others were naturally happy in their hearts, in their opinion, this undoubtedly meant that they had succeeded in prying the corner of the wall before, Ye Ling seemed to have fallen out with Yang Jian, one of the four traitors of the Turbidity Stream, even if it was not his own person, at least he was not a pure enemy, this must be a good start.
And many people in the turbidity current and neutral factions feel puzzled and even regretful, after all, this Ye Ling has only just taken office, and he has such an unpleasant quarrel with giants like Yang Jian and Liang Wang, it is definitely not a good thing in the long run, the officialdom is sinister, many friends and many roads, many opponents and many walls, who knows when people will plot against you, for the grassroots like Yue Fei, there are such big enemies, is it worth it?
As for Ye Ling, he didn't think about it so much at all, not to mention that it was just Yang Jian, even if it was Huizong, he actually didn't pay attention to it, he would definitely overthrow the Great Song Dynasty in the future, as for Yang Jian? Extinguish it!
I have to say that Ye Ling's behavior this time is extremely ridiculous, and as soon as the turmoil on Yue Fei's side was suppressed, Shi Xiu's contradiction here came out again, and the person who provoked it was not someone else, it was Wang Wanhe, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who had a conflict with Ye Ling in Fanlou before, and he was also the son of Wang Wande, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
At that time, the eldest prince of Wang took the Western Xia envoy Li Wanchun to Fanlou to be happy, but he was disturbed by this Du Ling and that entourage, which caused him to return in embarrassment, and before he could find a chance to retaliate, this kid took the initiative to jump out again.
But the momentum of this Ye Ling jumping out was a little too violent, and he jumped directly from Bai Ding to the two important positions of the Jinwu envoy and the Honglu Temple sacrificial wine, and became a hot celebrity in the dynasty, and any of these two official positions were more high-end than his eldest prince, so he could only forcibly swallow this breath, listen to his Lao Tzu's long-term consideration, and slowly Tuzhi's teachings.
But this time, as soon as he saw Shi Xiu appear, he immediately exploded, Ye Ling couldn't afford to provoke him at this time, and such a dog-legged family dared to come out to swagger, didn't he deliberately humiliate his eldest son?
So he was an uncle who couldn't bear it, and his aunt couldn't bear it, so he jumped out and blew up on the spot!
