Chapter 166: Prison Havoc

When Wei Shuming received the emperor's summons, he felt uneasy in his heart for some reason, instructed the housekeeper a few words, and hurriedly followed Gonggong Chen to the palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When the carriage arrived in front of the Xuanwu Gate, Wei Shuming lifted the corner of the curtain and saw the carriage of the East Palace parked on the side, and the uneasy mood in his heart increased again.

Just one step into the main hall, Wei Shuming had already noticed a trace of strange atmosphere solidified in the air, and after entering the inner hall, he found that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was indeed here.

It's just that what makes him strange is that the atmosphere between Liu Yan and the emperor is very strange, Liu Yan, who is kneeling on the ground, exudes a spirit that is not bent, and the emperor's face is an indescribable look.

"The old minister participates in Your Majesty, see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After Wei Shuming saluted, he didn't hear the emperor say anything about the courtesy, so his bent waist didn't straighten up, and I don't know how long it took for the emperor to move and say, "General Wei? ”

Wei Shuming, who heard these four words, was shocked, and looked at Liu Yan with a little surprise on his face, and he didn't know what was going on at the moment, so he said in a panic: "What did Your Majesty call Lao Chen?" The old minister heard it wrong. ”

"General Wei doesn't need to be so excited, I summoned you here today just to ask you something." The emperor looked at him carefully, from top to bottom, from left to right, not a single detail was not missed.

Wei Shuming was stared at by him like this, and his heart was a little hairy, but his face did not change the slightest, and he said calmly: "Your Majesty asks, minister...... Everything. ”

"It's a good one to know everything." The emperor suddenly sneered, Wei Shuming was attracted by his sneer, but when he looked up, he saw a few old pieces of paper on the table, his eyes couldn't help but be shocked, and the emperor had already asked, "I want to hear you repeat the battle of Yanqueguan back then." ”

Wei Shuming has gradually realized why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has violated the scale today, except for the headless case, he really can't think of anything else, seeing the emperor asking, he also knows that he has thought about it and replied: "The minister led thousands of soldiers to Yanque Pass to fight the Qi army. They fled in the wilderness, but they were killed by the Qi army, and the soldiers were forced to Changhe, and half of them fought to the end and were killed by the Qi army. Half of them would rather die than give in and jump into the Chang River. ”

"And how did you get out?" The emperor turned sideways, his eyes inadvertently revealing a touch of murderous aura, but he was caught clean by Wei Shuming.

"The ministers and three hundred elite soldiers fought a bloody hole, but the Qi army followed non-stop, and all the soldiers protected each other with their lives. The minister was lucky enough to pick up a jump of life, but thinking back on the tragic situation of the year, the minister always felt that the most tragic scene in the world was nothing more than that. Wei Shuming's tone was calm, and there was no trace of uneasiness and nervousness from the corners of his eyes to the tips of his eyebrows, which made the emperor a little disappointed.

"If it's really as you say," Liu Yan suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention, and they all lowered their eyes to look, "Thousands of soldiers are desperately escorting you out." But when Situ Jue withheld the soldiers' pensions, why didn't you say a word? Could it be that Master Wei is such a cold-blooded person? ”

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his gaze from Liu Yan to Wei Shuming's face, seeing that his expression was still as usual, he said unhurriedly: "Back then, the treasury was empty, Yanqueguan suffered heavy casualties, and the pension issued by the imperial court was not enough for a family's rations for seven days, so what is the point of such a symbolic subsidy?" However, the accumulation of this money is a large amount of money for the national treasury. Enough to do many. Because of the war, the bridges in many places were broken, and the minister once proposed to the Ministry of Industry that the bridge could be repaired and paved. ”

Liu Yan was speechless by his words. At this time, I suddenly remembered Chu Shenxia, if he can argue well, how many people in the world can argue with him?

Seeing that Liu Yan didn't speak, the Buddha beads in his hand kept turning, and his eyes were ethereal for a long time before he suddenly said a word. "How is your calligraphy?"

"Fabulous." Wei Shuming knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he simply said bluntly.

"If you were asked to imitate someone else's handwriting, would you be able to do it?"

"It can be done." After Wei Shuming finished saying these three words, he clearly saw that the emperor's hand plucking the Buddha beads suddenly paused, and added, "Not only ministers can do it, but other people can also do it." ”

The emperor's gaze paused on the old paper on the table, motioned for him to come and look, and said, "Then look at it, what is written here?" ”

Wei Shuming responded in a low voice, took the paper on the table very carefully, looked at it hastily under the burning and cold eyes of the two of them, and then gently put it down and said: "I don't know, this word is too vague, and I can't see anything at all." ”

The emperor glanced at Liu Yan meaningfully, and seeing that he still had a persistent look on his face, he couldn't help but be a little angry, but it was not good to attack in front of Wei Shuming.

Seeing that he was silent, Wei Shuming simply asked, "Do you dare to fight...... Dare to ask Your Majesty what is the reason for today's question? What did the minister do wrong? ”

"You're not wrong, it's Zishun who is drilling the tip of the horns." The emperor paused, and then said, "You should retreat first." ”

"Yes."

Liu Yan saw that the emperor asked Wei Shuming to retreat first, he must be planning to talk to him alone, his lips opened and closed and he was about to say something, the emperor suddenly said: "Zishun, you also retreat, I have just recovered from a serious illness, and there are too many official documents to accumulate, and I really can't correct them, I will let people send them to the East Palace when the time comes, you will take a good look at it for me, and then talk about other things after dealing with the official documents." ”

Liu Yan originally wanted to refute a few words, but it can be seen that the emperor's words are cold, and he has a lot of meaning, and he can't pull this face when he arrives, not to mention, Wei Shuming has not yet walked out of the hall, and after a little hesitation, the emperor has already gotten up and walked outside the hall, and it is too late to chase after him.

Liu Zhengsheng, who was waiting in the East Palace, was very anxious when he saw Liu Yan coming back with a sad face, and he must have known that something was wrong, and secretly thought, how did I persuade His Highness not to act rashly, His Highness insisted on acting recklessly, and now he has really suffered a big disaster.

After Liu Yan entered the hall, he didn't say anything, just took the teacup and was distracted, his discrete eyes suddenly gathered, and he crushed the teacup and said: "How can this be reasonable, today is a failure!" ”

Where did Liu Zhengsheng dare to blame Liu Yan, so he had to reassure: "When Mr. comes out, maybe things will take a turn for the better, but it is still unknown." ”

In a quarter of an hour, Liu Zhengsheng regretted that he had said such a sentence, because of his words, Liu Yan immediately decided to go to the Sixing Temple to ask for someone, and if Chen Zhiming didn't give it, he would rob it.

"Is His Highness here to rob prisoners by bringing so many people to the Punishment Temple?" Chen Zhiming saw Liu Yan's face with anger, and he came angrily, although he didn't know where he was angry, but if he wanted to vent his anger in the Sixing Temple, it would be absolutely impossible.

Liu Yan jumped off his horse, took two steps towards him, and said, "The efficiency of your Punishment Temple is so low?" Questioning to ask for so many days? The court didn't let you eat white rice and talk nonsense here. ”

"There are some things that you have to ask slowly, and then you will ask them, and you will say them all at once, if you change Your Highness, will Your Highness dare to believe it?" Since Chen Zhiming became the chief of the Punishment Temple, his whole personality has changed, he is no longer as obedient and domineering as before, and has gradually learned the style of officialdom.

Liu Yan snorted coldly, and didn't intend to ignore him, he directly crossed him and broke into the Sixing Temple, and the people on the side were about to stop him, but they were stopped by Chen Zhiming with a look.

When Chu Shenxia saw Liu Yan split the chain with a sword and said that he was going to take him out, he was stunned, he couldn't believe that Liu Yan would be so stupid, he was good at words, he even stammered, and couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Your Highness, are you crazy? I can't go. Chu Shenxia came back to his senses and said.

Chen Zhiming's figure suddenly appeared in front of Chu Shenxia's eyes, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he sneered: "Chu Shenxia, you can go." ”

Liu Yan glanced at Chen Zhiming with some surprise, then pulled Chu Shenxia over, and walked out, he naturally knew that what he did today was a little impulsive, but since Chen Zhiming also said that he could go, it was not a robbery.

After the two of them walked out of the Sixing Temple, Chu Shenxia was stunned again when he saw the large group of people outside the Sixing Temple, and he trembled with anger, and he couldn't say a word anymore.

"Sir......" Liu Zhengsheng suddenly leaned out from behind the crowd and bowed tremblingly.

Chu Shenxia walked up to him quickly, pulled him to the side, and asked quietly, "What's the matter?" He did this kind of thing, why don't you persuade him? And mess around with him! How does this end? ”

"Sir...... I...... I can't persuade you, Your Highness doesn't listen to me for anything, and ...... Prisoner robbery is nothing at all......" Liu Zhengsheng said later, and his voice became softer.

Chu Shenxia sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What?" What else happened in the days I wasn't there? ”

"Hmm...... His Royal Highness ...... "Liu Zhengsheng couldn't say what was going on, and when he saw Liu Yan coming this way, he was silent.

"Lord Liu has been tired for a whole day, after a while, I will send Lu Zhi to send Lord Liu back, go back and rest well, don't be tired of these tedious things." Liu Yan smiled slightly, but he saw Liu Zhengsheng furious.

Liu Zhengsheng glanced at Chu Shenxia meaningfully before leaving, sighed silently, and walked away without looking back, but the steps were extremely heavy.

How could he not see the prince's thoughts, but paper can't contain fire, with Chu Shenxia's intelligence, how can he hide it?

On the way back, Chu Shenxia and Liu Yan sat opposite each other, but the two didn't even say half a word, Liu Yan had a ghost in his heart, and Chu Shenxia was angry in his heart.

When he was about to arrive at the East Palace, Liu Yan finally couldn't help but glance at Chu Shenxia's face, and asked softly, "Shouldn't you be angry about my invasion of the Si Xing Temple?" ”

Chu Shenxia always looked straight ahead and didn't reply, Liu Yan was a person with strong self-esteem, seeing that he heard it but didn't say anything, he didn't have the heart to say a second sentence.

Until they entered the East Palace, the two of them did not have a half-sentence intersection, so they inexplicably fought for several days, and Ruoyu and Banrong looked strange for a while.
