Under the leadership of this great internal official, it is two dragons that go hand in hand, and they go out of this Yuanxi Palace, and under the gaze of the heavily guarded Imperial Forest Army in the entire outer palace square, they walked on the Hanbai stone arch bridge called "Jade Belt Bridge".

The white stone arch bridge is divided into five bridges, all of which are made of fine marble and inlaid with white jade jewelry. Under this bridge, is the crystal clear moat river, the river is not long, but it is surrounded by this golden luan hall on all sides, forming a square, this river water is like a jade belt, sparkling, look down carefully, you can also see this golden scale swimming in the water, so it is called "jade belt river" and these five white stone arch bridges, it is called "jade belt bridge".

The ministers respectfully passed over the jade belt bridge in turn, their heads buried, and they did not dare to act rashly.

After getting off this jade belt bridge, you have to walk a distance to reach the Jinluan Palace. And this road, of course, is the most heavily guarded place in the palace, and it is here that the most elite and powerful soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army stand around, each pair of eyes firmly on these ministers, to prevent them from the slightest suspicious action.

After a short time, they came to the foot of the steps in front of the Jinluan Palace, and at this time, more than ten soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army came forward to check whether the ministers were carrying weapons, armor or other items that could threaten the emperor's safety.

After all the generals have checked and confirmed that everything is correct, they will notify the inner supervisor deacon in front of the Jinluan Hall on this high platform, and when the inner supervisor deacon sees it, he will ask someone to open the vermilion gate of the Jinluan Palace, and then shout loudly: "The ministers have entered the court." ”

At this time, the emperor will also be notified by the chief official who has already entered the Jinluan Palace, clean up from this Taiping Palace, come to this Jinluan Palace, and prepare for the early dynasty.

So, the ministers divided into two columns, walked slowly up the steps in front of the Jinluan Palace, and slowly entered the spacious and magnificent Jinluan Palace.

Jin Ren's heart was very excited at this time, on the one hand, he left this court after three years of absence, and when he came back, he sighed with a slight sense of strangeness; On the one hand, there is excitement but a little worry about what is coming.

The jade pillars in the hall stand in a forest, the golden is brilliant, spacious and grand, the dragon seat is high above the high hall in this hall, the atmosphere is magnificent. There are copper cranes and turtles all around the hall, which are placed in the most conspicuous places around. There is an incense burner placed there, the green smoke is slow, ethereal and illusory.

The ministers settled in the hall, but a few eunuchs came forward and brought out two large mahogany flower chairs, which were carved with unusual textures and some other jewels, which looked very magnificent. Two chairs on each side. One is at the head of the civil officer, and the other is at the head of the military attaché.

Jin Ren looked at the reaction of the ministers, everyone was silent, quite puzzled, but then he figured out something, he didn't return to the capital for three years, and the rules of the capital are afraid that they have changed, although he didn't go to the early dynasty many times before he was sent by Emperor Wen to Yongqing County to serve as the county commander, but at that time there was no rule that allowed the two princes to sit down above the early dynasty, and now there is such a rule that can give a seat. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, indeed, the status of the Lin and Huang families in this Liang country can really be called powerful, and the status of these two princes can be regarded as being under one person and above ten thousand people.

I saw that at the forefront of this civil official, Huang Desheng actually sat on it with a butt, and with this Huang Desheng's burly posture, it can be described as domineering; And at the forefront of this military attaché, Lin Changhai also slightly handed his crutches to the eunuch, and slowly sat on the chair with the support of the eunuch.

At this time, Jin Rencai faintly saw the appearance of this Lin Changhai, this Lin Changhai was over seventy years old, his expression was indifferent, his head was full of white hair, his beard was all gray, he was dressed in a gorgeous official uniform, wearing a gauze hat, and his eyes were slightly closed on this chair, and when the ministers were in the early dynasty, it seemed that he was about to fall asleep.

The Liang State was different from the Jin State from the beginning of the country. , the Jin State was set up with three dukes, which were Sikong, Sima and Si Nong, who were in charge of government affairs, military affairs and economy respectively; The Liang State did not set up three dukes, and directly set up three provinces and six departments, namely Shangshu, Zhongshu and Menxia three provinces, each province set up an order to jointly take charge of government affairs, and under Shangshu, it was divided into six ministries of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers to take charge of specific matters. The military attache is different, it is directly set up with one general, and then four generals in the east, west, north and south respectively, to form the entire administrative and military organs of the Liang country. This golden gun Hou Lin Yi is the general of Zhenxi among the four generals in the east, west, north and south.

Huang Desheng himself has the title of Duke of the Kingdom, and this Huang Desheng is a scholar who directly manages the affairs of the six departments; Therefore, the status among civil servants is very high; And Lin Changhai is naturally the general of the Liang State, and his status as a military attache is also extremely high.

Originally, Emperor Wen of Liang wanted to send the general Lin Changhai out of the army, but Lin Changhai was very old, and because he was born and died on the battlefield in his early years, he fell ill, so he was old and frail, and he did not dare to go to the expedition, so he sent Lin Changhai's son, Lin Yi, the general of Zhenxi, to go to the expedition.

Lin Changhai's name, this Jin Ren has heard of it for a long time, not only the people of Jin and Liang, but also the Wei State in the Central Plains and the Qin State in the Guannei, which are all famous. Lin Changhai spent half his life with Emperor Wu of Liang in his early years, and he experienced an unknown number of major battles, and he killed countless people, so he had a high prestige in this army. Lin Changhai is good at guns, and has his own unique "Lin family marksmanship", and when he is old, naturally his son Lin Yi will take over this banner, so the title of Golden Gun Marquis also has a lot to do with this Lin family's good marksmanship.

Jin Ren was thinking about it, and suddenly heard the big internal official on the side of the dragon chair in the high hall shouting in a sharp voice: "The emperor has arrived, and the ministers are in court." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the pearl curtain on the side of the dragon chair pulled up, and then a person walked out of it, this middle-aged man wearing a golden dragon robe, wearing a purple and gold crown, and a slightly chubby middle-aged man walked out slowly. This person's demeanor is calm, his face is as calm and indifferent as water, and there are a few traces of green beard under his chin, which is undoubtedly this Liang Emperor Liang Wen Emperor Zhao Ji.

Emperor Wen Liang came to this dragon chair surrounded by a group of eunuchs, and then sat down slowly.

Seeing this, the ministers knelt down respectfully and said, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Even Dingguo Gong Huang Desheng immediately got up and knelt down. And this Lin Changhai finally knelt down with the support of the eunuchs.

When Emperor Wen of Liang saw this, he immediately waved his hand to the big internal official, and the great internal official said to the ministers below: "The ministers are flat." ”

All the ministers got up to thank them, except for the two princes who immediately sat down, the ministers stood at the bottom with respectful faces, silent, and the huge hall was suddenly very quiet.

After a while, Emperor Wen Liang asked the ministers below softly: "Do you have something to do?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a person came out of the pile of Wenchen, who held the wat board in his hand and bowed slightly: "Yin Shu, the waiter of the Weichen Criminal Department, has a plan to play. ”

Emperor Wen of Liang was still expressionless, looking at this Yin Shu silently, this Manchu Dynasty civil and military also focused their eyes on this Yin Shu, not knowing what this Yin Shu was going to do.

Yin Shu glanced at the emperor, and then continued: "Weichen impeached Lin Yi, the general of Zhenxi, and privately appropriated the food and salary allocated by the imperial court for his own use, and used his power for personal gain. ”

When the ministers heard this, they were all shocked, good guy, didn't this shoot directly at Lin Changhai? All of them all looked at Lin Changhai, the prince of Chengguo, but saw that Lin Changhai seemed to have not heard these words, and his eyes were closed in the chair, as if he didn't care.

Emperor Liang Wendi was also interested in these words, so he asked this Yin Shu curiously: "What Yin Aiqing said, is there any evidence?" ”

Yin Shu replied with a righteous face: "Weichen has human evidence, physical evidence, and is now in this hall." After a pause, after seeing that the curiosity of the ministers was raised, he cleared his throat and said: "Zhenxi General Lin Yi, the food and salary used in this expedition to the Northern Jin Dynasty are all allocated by Yongqing County, Wuzhong County, Jianghuai Prefecture, and according to Weichen, this Zhenxi General will urge the rear to allocate grain every five days, originally thought that it might be because of the urgency of the war ahead, so Lin Yi had to urge food, but I never thought that this Lin Yi was urging food and salary again a few days ago, and asked to be sent to the front base camp within ten days, and now Hulukou has been ordered by our country. It stands to reason that it shouldn't be to urge food at this time, so what does this Lin Yi mean, I hope the saint will see it. At the end of his speech, he actually said loudly to Emperor Wen of Liang, as if he was secretly questioning the military attaches standing on the other side.

The military attache on the side heard this Yin Shu say this, they were all furious, and as soon as Yin Shu's voice fell, one of the military attachés came out and said: "Weichen Zuo General Jiang Qian has a book to play, and what Yin Shu, the squire of the Criminal Department, said is untrue, and there is a suspicion of favoritism and revenge, and the minister wants to impeach him." ”

When Yin Shu heard this, he looked at this Jiang Qian angrily, and then asked loudly: "General Jiang said that what the official said is wrong, okay, the official will let the general see the physical evidence of my person." After finishing speaking, he shouted towards the area where Jin Ren, the last position of the civil official, was: "Lord Jin, you can tell the emperor the truth." ”

When Jin Ren started to look at it just now, he knew that this was the mutual blow between the various factions in the court, which was the case in all dynasties, and now he heard that this Yin Shu was going to speak by himself, and he knew that it must have been instructed by Huang Desheng, the Duke of Dingguo, so he stood up and said indifferently: "Weichen Yongqing County ordered Jin Ren to come from Yongqing, thousands of miles away, to tell the emperor that what Lord Yin said is true." ”

As soon as Emperor Wen of Liang heard this, his eyes were fixed on this Jin Ren, and he raised his hand to stop Jiang Qian, who wanted to speak and refute, and then said to this Jin Ren: "Jin Aiqing, I haven't seen you for three years, I don't know that Jin Aiqing actually hid it from me and returned to this capital, so I must have worked hard." ”

When Jiang Qian heard this, he didn't know that he was complaining about Jin Ren's tone, so he preemptively said: "Lord Jin left his post without permission during his tenure, and he should be held accountable." ”

As soon as Jin Ren heard this, he smiled and said to Emperor Wen of Liang: "I was originally ordered by Your Majesty to go directly to this Yongqing County to serve as a county commander, and I am a direct official of Your Majesty. Your Majesty once had an order, and the direct officials could have the right to investigate and deal with it during the appropriate period, and now, Lin Yi, the general of Zhenxi, not only has come to urge me to send food and salary as soon as possible without knowing how many times, but Weichen feels that something is strange, and he came to the capital to investigate this matter before, I don't know if it was the emperor's order? ”

Emperor Liang Wen chuckled: "It's not what I meant. ”

After hearing this, Jin Ren smiled and said to this Jiang Qian: "Since it is not what Your Majesty meant, then this matter is a little strange, this Lin Yi was in the war stage some time ago, and there is nothing wrong with urging food, but now I heard that General Lin has captured Hulukou, it should be the time to prepare soldiers and horses, I don't know what it means to come to urge food at this time." Also, Your Majesty, the minister has recorded the amount of grain that Lin Yi urged the officials to ship this month, and has now brought it to His Majesty for review. ”
