At dawn, a star rises in the distant sky, breaking the dreary night and giving people a glimmer of hope in the darkness of the night.

The Nie family's rebellion case, which had been silent for more than ten years, was mentioned to the court by Mo Yu, the crown prince of the dynasty.

Some of the ministers of the age remember this case, overnight, the Nie family and the Shengjing dynasty left more than 400 people died in the family, it is said that the corpses were piled up into a mountain, the official in charge of dealing with the matter was afraid of causing a plague and could only order a fire, for a few days the people of Shengjing did not dare to travel, for fear of sucking in the ashes of someone who would be blown away by the wind; It is also said that the blood somehow flowed into the moat, and the water that had been clear became a crimson color, and none of the women along the river went to the river to wash their clothes, for fear that their clothes would be stained with heavy blood.

After only a few years on the throne, Mo Chenfeng told the people of the world with vigorous means that what is called the anger of the Son of Heaven and the corpse of thousands of miles, since then, there is no one who dares to speak out in the court.

Shengjing's power was reshuffled, and various new noble families rose from time to time, among which the promotion of the right minister Gao Fei was the most significant, from a few unknown small officials to a powerful right minister, this fight can be described as fame and fortune. The second is Fang Yeming, who was originally in Qizhou County with the Nie family, he was the hero who exposed the Nie family's rebellion, and he also jumped from a small state and county prefect to Shangshu, and then sent his two daughters to the emperor's harem, and formed a party with Gao Fei, the right minister, and was in the limelight for a while.

But "30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi", this Fang Shangshu house leaked in a rainy day, originally Fang Zhuoliang offended His Royal Highness the Prince by refusing the disaster relief position, and then the nephew who was a guard got into trouble with the palace, and Fang Baobao, who was in the position of the concubine, did everything possible to cover it up, and also disregarded human life, one death and one fall, and now the prince turned over the old case, which is Sima Zhao's heart.

The courtiers were silent, just like when the Nie family's rebellion was exposed, there were many talents in the court who would judge the situation and assess the situation.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged! The old minister can learn from the emperor's heart, and he will never do such a thing to deceive the emperor and destroy people! Although he has been an official for many years, Fang Yeming's style is still trembling, regarding the emperor's grace as rain and dew, and he has no half of the style of a civilian official.

On the other hand, Gao Fei, who was also nominated as the right minister, was much calmer, the panic on his face was just right, a little more was suspected of committing a crime, and a little less showed no awe of the imperial power, and even his voice did not fluctuate much: "The minister is afraid." ”

Then Gao Fei touched the ground with his head, knocked lightly, and then raised his head, and his face that was soaked in wind and frost showed a trace of grievance that was not easy to identify, "Back then, the Nie family's rebellion case involved a wide range of things, not only the Nie family and the Hu family in Qizhou Prefecture, but also many prominent families left over from the previous dynasty in the capital. The minister knew that the crime of rebellion was connected to the nine clans, so when he learned of the incident, he did not dare to report it to the emperor easily, but suppressed the matter and visited secretly, for fear that he would be used by traitors and harm the lives of innocent people because of his own accident. After several investigations, the evidence pointed to the rebellion of the Nie family, and Weichen was afraid that this matter was true, for fear of causing turmoil in the court and harming the people, so he naturally did not dare to hide it and not report it, so he played the matter to the emperor together with the evidence of this matter. Although the Nie family was unfortunate later, they were instigated by traitors to misunderstand the emperor's will, deliberately rebelled against the holy decree and were destroyed, and the rebellion was over. Weichen really doesn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means when he mentions this rebellion case that has long been sunk, but the minister has never done anything to be sorry for the emperor and sorry for the court, and the minister has a clear conscience. ”

That's a clever remark.

first chose himself from the crime of framing others for rebellion, and added a sentence "traitor exploitation" in the middle, even if it is really proved that the case is wronged in the future, he can also push the boat with the flow; Again, show that you are acting according to the order, In this way, whether this bloody case is right or wrong, the original order is under the person who is now sitting on the throne, he Gao Fei is at best just a holy will to inform the emperor of the matter and then carry it out, and this is the duty of a courtier; In the end, he confessed his heart, and by the way, he asked the prince, who had been suspicious of Fang Yeming in recent days, to find out the thoughts of this old case with Fang Yeming as the target, and secretly pointed out that Mo Yu was Sima Zhao's heart.

"I heard that Lord Right Xiang is thoughtful, and Mo Yu has seen it today." Mo Yu replied without humility or arrogance, "However, the heavens are clear, I'm afraid that you can't subvert it with a single word." What is the intention of this palace to bring this old case to the snow, presumably you have already made a decision in your hearts, even if this palace says benevolence, righteousness and morality, I am afraid that you will not listen to it. Even so, Hongu didn't want to bother with words. Just one question, before the Nie family was temporarily called a rebellion case, it was also by virtue of the fact that Master Fang, who was still the commander of Shanghe County at the time, chased the former dynasty back from the fugitive, and began to have a place in the court, and then only a few years, the Nie family was accused of rebellion by you and Fang Shangshu, and they were not even interrogated, and more importantly, the Nie family was slaughtered during the arrest process, and then, Gao Youxiang was admired by thousands of people, and Fang Shangshu was also on the rise. This palace just wants to ask, is it too easy for you to get everything because the crime of "rebellion" is placed on others? ”

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince's words are contemptible!" Fang Yeming, who had already knelt on the side, "poofed" and fell to the bright floor, beating his chest suddenly, it was difficult for Fang Yeming to be so old, his temples were white, and he could still beat the stiff floor with a "clang" sound.

The man on the throne saw the inferior people rattling for his former orders, but there was no fluctuation on his face, but his eyes paused slightly when he skipped Mo Yu, and then turned to the ministers who were bowing down in the court, and a majestic voice sounded: "What do the ministers think about this matter?" ”

"The ministers are stupid, don't dare to talk about it!" Unison.

"I don't know that this piece of the country and this court are all taken care of by ignorant people who dare not discuss the government in vain. In this way, I am afraid that the ministers are struggling with their current positions, and I am not surprised to think about it in this way. So I will have the hats off your heads, and let the capable dwell there. ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, and the ministers know the sin!" Again, in unison, even the height of the hem of the court dress lifted when kneeling was almost the same.

In this way, there are only three people left in the entire court who have not yet knelt down, the emperor Mo Chenfeng who is sitting on the dragon chair, Wang Shengrui of Zhaoyang who is reclining on the golden pillar of the dragon as usual, and the prince Mo Yu who is standing upright like a pine, standing on three legs.

"Sheng Rui, what do you say about this case?"

"Last night, the ministers slept late, and they leaned on the pillar for a while, and when they came back to their senses, they saw the ministers kneeling on the ground, and I really didn't know what the emperor asked." Sheng Rui said to Mo Chenfeng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, with an innocent face, that he had made up for a return to consciousness during the court meeting, without the slightest consciousness of being a courtier.

In the past, Mo Chenfeng would not blame him, but today he didn't want to let him go so easily, and continued to speak: "After the prince reported on the disaster relief situation in various places, he turned over an old case, this case involves Fang Shangshu and Gao Youxiang, what do you think of this matter?" ”

"Before the disaster relief, Fang Zhuoliang, the son of Fang Shangshu, the household servant, shirked the disaster relief, and passed it on to His Royal Highness the Prince, and the two also had a dispute above the main hall, and then, Fang Shangshu's nephew Fang had to violate the palace rules, and Concubine Bao took the prince's maid of Yangjing Palace as a scapegoat, and the prince returned to the palace privately regardless of the holy will, and was sent by the emperor to investigate the disaster relief situation in various places. Sheng Rui shook his head as he spoke, the hair was tied for him by someone I don't know who gave it to him, it was very neat and neat, and he never shook it off at all.

After saying this, before the ministers kneeling on the ground calmed down the surging waves in their hearts, Sheng Rui's originally scattered and unfocused eyes flickered, and his voice was mixed with a bit of coldness: "You court officials who kneel on the ground and are not afraid of knees, that's what you think in your hearts, right?" Hum! I have taken off your official positions and let you go home to retire and not wronged you! ”

"Sheng Rui."

"At that time, I was still young, and I was not in the palace, and I didn't have the heart to care about other people's affairs, I didn't know." Sheng Rui said calmly, and after finishing speaking, he was removed from the bones and leaned on the pillar.

When Mo Chenfeng heard Sheng Rui's words, he understood that he was protecting Mo Yu, and what he said was also the truth, the situation at that time, let alone his little child, even he had no intention of caring about these complicated things.

And Mo Yu was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect Sheng Rui to help him speak, with his character and the emperor's tolerance towards him, even if he didn't say anything, there would be no reproach, not to mention that on the way back to Beijing, he had already made it clear to himself that he would not participate in this matter, and of course he had dissuaded himself.

The carriage was newly replaced, and the low table C white porcelain tea cup that Sheng Rui wanted to throw away because it was touched by others, and the screen with large characters were all moved back to the spacious carriage by Qingping under Mo Yu's instructions.

Everything is still the same, and everything is different again.

Sheng Rui endured and endured, but after all, he couldn't hold back: "It's better to slow down this matter for the Nie family, at this time, it is not appropriate to directly confront the second prince Mo Xiaofan and others, if you don't have a plan to retreat, don't act lightly, Gao Fei is more difficult to deal with than you think." ”

The court has long been divided into three forces, one is headed by the second prince Mo Xiaofan, including the right minister Gao Fei, Shangshu Fang Yeming and others; a force that supports Mo Yu, the legitimate heir to the throne as the crown prince; The other group is the neutral faction, of course, there are also pro-Mo Xiao Fan among the neutral faction, or close to Mo Yu.

In addition, the most special existence is Zhaoyang Wang Shengrui. He does not belong to any party, anyone who only relies on his own preferences, but has the most favor from the emperor, before and now, Mo Xiaofan desperately wants to pull him under his command.

"The matter should be clarified. If the facts of this matter are really as the descendants of the Nie family say, it is an unjust case that is enough to snow in June. In addition to a few people from Nie's family village, the Nie family, from the eighty-year-old mother to the infant baby, were all killed, and none of them were spared. I promised Nie Yanran not to win people's hearts, but I just felt that I should give an explanation to those wronged souls, and also remove the trumped-up charges from their children and grandchildren, so that they can appear in front of the world with their true faces, and can freely return to the place where their elders once lived to worship. What's more, this is what they deserve, and this is what our Mo family owes them. Mo Yu's tone was light, and he didn't try to convince Sheng Rui to be with him.

"The world is inherently mutually pouring, and it is not easy to be alone, and it is still difficult for the living to live, so why bother to seek 'fame' for those who have passed away. The Si people have passed away, and the external objects are no longer perceived, even if the grievances are gone, the deceased is no more, and the false name is just a burden, and the comfort that the people behind them stubbornly seek. Why would you upset the balance for the sake of such worthless stubbornness? ”

"Uncle Wang, you also said that those unjustly dead souls still have the people behind them. Since I was a child, I have known that 'if you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone', and I am afraid that there are few people in the world who are above me in terms of the word "da". ”

Mo Yu still remembers the look in Shengrui's eyes when he said those words, it was disappointment.

Although he didn't know where this disappointment came from, from his direct action of jumping out of the carriage, Mo Yu knew that it was his limit if he didn't stop himself, and he would never uncover the blood-stained old case of the Nie family with him.

But he didn't think about it, he spoke.

The early sun stepped out of the confinement of darkness, and the warm light shone into the solemn hall.

The man leaned on the golden pillar of the dragon, bathing in the first rays of sunlight in the morning, squinting his eyes slightly, and his attitude was leisurely.
