Chapter 17: Is This My Brother-in-law?
It is said that Zhang Jiu was sent out to fetch ice, and immediately mobilized the palace guards as agreed, ordered the palace gate to be closed, and arranged to stop. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info led people to bring ice cubes to place, and saw Chongsui raise his sword, staring at Liu Penzi with a pair of tiger eyes. Above the court, the silence is terrifying.
Looking at Liu Penzi, his face was red, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he stood alone in front of the dragon chair, embarrassed and pitiful. Zhang Jiuri thought to himself, if you are out, you Chongsui soldiers and horses are coming, why do you have to work hard for a quarter of an hour. Lao Tzu will arrange the guards first, and you will talk about it later. Just as he was about to attack, above the court, Liu Yilun stood up.
"The general is above the court, and he speaks to His Majesty like this, do you want to rebel?!"
"Liu Yilun! You echo your father Liu Yu inside and outside, control the Son of Heaven, and cause trouble to the court, the old man didn't say that you rebelled, but you dare to bite the old man first, come and come! ”
"In!" The warriors led by Chongsui raised their swords one by one, ready to tear Liu Yilun apart.
And although Liu Yilun had few people on his side, only three or five guards, he was not intimidated at all, and immediately drew his sword against each other.
Liu Penzi sat down quietly at this time, thinking, "Uncle, you have to hold on."
"Bold!" But it was Da Situ Luyan who scolded both sides.
"The Son of Heaven is above, there are those who use weapons to hurt people, if they rebel, they will destroy the nine clans!"
Lu Yan has hole cards in the end, his voice made Chongsui who was as ruthless as a wolf retreat, Liu Yilun saw this, and immediately apologized to the Son of Heaven: "The minister lost his temper, pulled out his sword above the court, and asked the Son of Heaven to punish the crime"
Chongsui was prodded by Qiu Xi, and also pretended to ask Liu Penzi for guilt.
Liu Penzi seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and hurriedly asked:
"Liu Aiqing is in charge of the Ministry of War, so he must know soldiers and horses, right? How about the general's recital, you can talk about it" While speaking, he slammed Chongsui with an angry face with his eyes, Chongsui was helpless, so he had to "Hmph! "Yes
"Your Majesty, the general will not go north to attack Liu Xiu, and second, he will not stay in Qingzhou to hone his soldiers and horses, and now he will come to Chu County, and he will garrison troops to go south to Huainan, which is not beneficial to the country! And Xiapi is only 100 miles away from Pengcheng (Chu County), and the troops are stationed in the suburbs, and there is a suspicion of supporting the army and respecting the Son of Heaven."
"Liu Yilun, don't deceive people too much! I am not allowed to garrison troops in the suburbs, how can you talk about the soldiers and horses of the Liu clan and the two of you? ! ”
Seeing the tip of the needle facing Maimang, the main gate suddenly opened, and I saw a person wearing silver armor, walking with his head held high, and the sergeants behind him divided the troops on both sides and surrounded the main hall. When the man entered the main hall, everyone was shocked, there was blood on this person's armor, and the thing he was holding in his hand was actually a human head.
Everyone was stunned, this person threw the head in his hand on the ground, rolled out two or three meters away, and Chongsui was shocked!
"Okay, you Liu Ziyue, you dare to kill people in His Majesty's forbidden palace!"
Liu Ziyue didn't look at Chongsui without looking at it, and bowed straight down:
"Minister, Tiger General Liu Ziyue, knock to see Your Majesty, long live long live long live!"
"Bold Liu Ziyue! In the forbidden palace, he actually moved his sword and brought his head to scare me, where is the soldier? ”
Liu Penzi was furious this time, and Liu Ziyue, who was spraying, looked at Liu Yilun with a blank face, knelt on the ground and looked at Liu Yilun, as if to say: "Brother, is this my brother-in-law?" ”
Zhang Jiuri ran over, didn't wait for Liu Penzi to speak, he leaned in front of him, and whispered:
"Your Majesty, I arranged for people to guard the city gate to prevent Chongsui soldiers and horses from entering, and Liu Ziyue, the bastard, killed all my guards stationed at the south gate. This head belongs to my captain Yan Ze, Your Majesty, I can't spare him! ”
Liu Penzi said casually, "Yes, it's the other way around, Liu Ziyue, what crime should you be guilty of killing my guard captain!" As soon as the words came out, I felt that something was wrong, and suddenly reacted and thought, "What's the matter, my own dog bit my own dog again."
Chongsui obviously got the news, Liu Ziyue was still arrogant when he entered the door, and at this time, I don't know whose life-saving tutorial he watched, but he pretended to be a good person:
"Your Majesty is angry, General Liu is still young, he doesn't know the handover of the forbidden palace, he must be in a hurry to participate in the court meeting, and was stopped by the guards, so he had to break into the palace to meet him, please Your Majesty for the sake of the face of the big Sikong and the queen, spare him this time"
Liu Penzi's eyebrows were raised, "Duan can't be spared!" One by one, one of you wants to garrison my suburbs, and the other is a guard who kills me, this is a great sin! If I spare you and wait, how will I deter hundreds of officials in the future! In a few words, Chongsui's proposal was rejected again. Seeing that Chongsui didn't dare to argue anymore, Liu Penzi breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yan stood up to intercede for the two, and Liu Penzi had a straight face, looking angry, but he was happy in his heart.
"Report! Report!! Zhao Chunyang rushed in and stepped to the side of the Son of Heaven with a strong stride
"Liu's soldiers and horses... Enter. City. ”
Before he finished speaking, Liu Penzi pulled Zhao Chunyang to the ground with a big mouth, leaned over to Zhao Chunyang's side and said
"You still use TM to say, Liu Ziyue's people have arrived!" turned around and looked at Zhang Jiuri, looking like a resentful woman, obviously still angry with Liu Ziyue for killing him.
"You go, take Zhang Jiuri, which is cool, which is breathable"
Baiguan interceded for Liu Ziyue and Chongsui, and Liu Penzi reluctantly exonerated the two. Thinking that he had finally crossed the catastrophe again, Liu Ziyue stood up again and said:
"The minister has brought the great Sikong Liuyu's twists and turns from Suiyang, please allow Your Majesty"
Liu Penzi thought to himself, you can't see me relaxed for a while, you also let me bow down, he also let me bow down, I am so prostrate, sooner or later I will become a pot.
"Let's talk about it"
Liu Ziyue simply finished saying the meaning of Liu Yue's play, and the court immediately became chaotic, and Lu Yan ordered three orders to quiet the court.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the big Sikong is reasonable, and the imperial court has been established, but according to the old system, there are many posts lacking. It is very inconvenient to communicate and handover, and to increase the number of officials and improve the system, it is also conducive to the balance of power and the appearance of ministers."
Liu Penzi looked at Lu Yan with a smile, and thought to himself, "You don't fool me with this, and put an end to the ministers, aren't you the biggest minister in the court right now?"
Chongsui said: "The addition of 100 officials is certainly beneficial to the community, but who will arrange the positions of these 100 officials? Is it arranged by the Prime Minister's government, or can everyone recommend it? ”
Lu Yan is an old fox, and he is about to put on a posture immediately:
"The Prime Minister's Mansion managed personnel before, and was relatively familiar with it, and this time the addition of 100 officials is a heavy task, but the ministers will live up to the grace of the saint, and they must be...
"It is not appropriate for the Prime Minister's Mansion to arrange it alone, the imperial court has many generals and ministers in Suiyang, Liangdi, and Qingzhou, how can the Prime Minister's Mansion be familiar with it?" Liu Yilun interrupted Lu Yan, of course he did not agree with the Prime Minister's arrangement.
"Is it good to hand over the general's grade and the grain and grass co-organizers outside the capital to the general's mansion?" Chongsui said
"Da Sima, you are also the general of the errand, all the general's grades and co-organizers are arranged by the general's mansion, my father is now in Suiyang, marching and fighting, the personnel arrangements should be immediately adapted, is it possible to fly back and forth to Qingzhou every day to resume his life?" Liu Ziyue is still young, but he doesn't give Chongsui face at all when he speaks.
Under the discussion of everyone, the court that had just calmed down was chaotic again.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! I've got a plan, and I think it's going to work, guys! "The person who spoke was Si Zhi Mengluo, this person went in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he was a clear stream, and the important officials knew that he didn't love money and didn't hesitate to be famous. When he said this, everyone listened attentively.
"Mingju, the position is a sharp weapon of the court, and it is the merit and benevolence of the Son of Heaven. If the addition of hundreds of officials is not participated by the Son of Heaven, where is the emperor's authority? ”
Liu Penzi immediately became energetic, and couldn't help but think, this person is really my nobleman. Everyone helped to the door of the house, how could I not speak, I immediately stood up and said
Meng Aiqing's words were deafening! If you are all as loyal and patriotic as Meng Gong, why worry about the great cause? Aiqing continued, "After that, he lifted Erlang's legs, held up his chin, and listened attentively.
"In accordance with the order, I will, important civil and military positions shall be nominated and discussed by the three public and six ministries together, and if an agreement can be formed, it must be approved by the Son of Heaven. If it is not agreed, it will be appointed by the Son of Heaven. The palace prohibits internal duties, which are agreed between the queen and the Son of Heaven. In Qingzhou and Suiyang Theater, generals of the second rank and above need to be appointed by the Son of Heaven, and below the third rank, they shall be determined by the General's Mansion and the Dasikong Mansion and submitted to the imperial court for approval. ”
From authority to procedure, this strategy conformed to the old system of the Han Dynasty, and everyone recognized its justice, so the garrison Xiapi was vetoed, and the addition of 100 officials was put on the agenda.
