Strange things don't happen often, and there are many troubled times. When the Queen Mother heard that Huan Yuan and the old ministers wanted to impeach him today, she was suddenly shocked, stunned on the spot, speechless for a long time, and thought to herself, "Okay, you Huan Yuan, this is for that, the new emperor has only been on the throne for more than three months, and today you will be abolished again." What's more, that Sima Ji was recommended by your Huan Yuan, if you want to stand up, if you want to abolish it, wouldn't it become a child's play, let this palace explain to the ancestors and ancestors, and how to explain to the people of the Son of Heaven? You are clearly forcing the palace. ”

So the Queen Mother said in a deep voice: "The king of a country is related to the foundation of the country, the well-being of the people in the world, and the Son of Heaven has been on the throne for less than 100 days, how can he be lightly abolished, even if the Son of Heaven is wrong, this matter should be considered in the long run, and the people of the Qing family should go back." ”

Huan Yuan didn't move, still kneeling on the ground, and the rest of the ministers saw that Huan Yuan didn't get up, and they couldn't afford to kneel. The Queen Mother was unhappy when she saw this, but she was worried about Huan's original situation, but the Queen Mother's dignity could not be lost, so she gently paused the teacup on the coffee table next to her and said, "Didn't the Zhongqing family hear what the palace said?" ”

Behind Huan Yuan, all the ministers were busy prostrating their heads on the ground, but Huan Yuan stood up directly, looked around, looked at the Queen Mother again, and arched his hand and said: "The minister has expected that the Queen Mother will be angry, thinking that the ministers are bold and bold to defy the world's condemnation, and dare to do 'Yihuo's move' and impeach the Son of Heaven." If the Queen Mother still feels that what the minister said is untrue, the minister is willing to let the Queen Mother fall, or kill or kill without complaining. ”

Huan Yuan didn't give the Queen Mother a chance to answer at all, so he immediately said: "Queen Mother, if the minister has no real evidence, he will never dare to speak falsely." When the Son of Heaven was still the king of the East China Sea, the courtier's daughter Lian'er was married to His Royal Highness as a concubine, and His Royal Highness was embraced by the ministers as the Son of Heaven, and the little girl was also canonized as the queen. However, the two of them have only had the name of knotting their hair for many years, but they have no Qin and Jin realities, and the Son of Heaven has impotence in the domain, and he specializes in the habit of Longyang, and he is in the palace with the servants. What's more, the current prince is not the emperor, but the concubine Ming was born of fornication with others, and now this news has spread all over the people, becoming the talk of the people of Jiankang after dinner. If such a son of heaven is disloyal to the first emperor, unfilial to the son of man, unkind to the king, unrighteous to his husband, corrupt human morality, insult the reputation of his ancestors, and the prestige of the royal family, shouldn't he be impeached? If it weren't for the involvement of the ministers of the Jiangshan Society, how could such an obscure matter be exposed, after all, it would also insult the queen's reputation. Moreover, just yesterday, the Son of Heaven and the Lingren surnamed Xiang were in the imperial study, and happened to be bumped into by the minister, who couldn't turn a blind eye and couldn't bear to take it away, and asked the Queen Mother to investigate this matter. ”

Huan Yuan said that the audience was silent for a while, and everyone hung their heads and waited for the Queen Mother to speak. Empress Chongde looked embarrassed and said: "If what Huan Qing listed is true, the virtue of the Son of Heaven will indeed be lost, but after all, this is a big deal, and this palace is only afraid that other clansmen and important ministers will oppose it." ”

Huan Yuan listened, his eyes narrowed, his face sank, and he took a few steps forward, and pulled out the sword at his waist with a "cang" sound, which frightened the Queen Mother and flashed back, Huan Yuan said: "Don't worry about the Queen Mother, if someone dares to ignore the current affairs and support the faint king, the sword given by the emperor in the hands of the minister will not spare him." ”

The Queen Mother settled down and hurriedly said: "Eh, Huan Qing is serious, Huan Qing can think about the country, it is the blessing of the Great Jin." If anyone has any objections, let him speak out, and if he is unreasonable, the palace will not spare him. ”

At this time, one of the ministers kowtowed and said: "The old minister is in the south palace, and there is a book." ”

The Queen Mother saw that it was Nangong Taifu, an old minister of the Three Dynasties, so she said: "Nangong Aiqing, you are old, please hurry up, and speak slowly." ”

Nangong thanked him, got up slowly, coughed a few more times, and then said: "What General Fang Caihuan said is true, and the minister has heard it, and now there are rumors among the people: 'The king is not the king, the husband is not the husband, the son is not the son, the father is not the father, all are in chaos, and the world is dead.'" This is probably what it refers to, and the old minister is really ashamed after hearing it, and he is afraid that one day he will face the first king without face! In order to save the society, the old minister also advocated the deposition of the faint emperor and asked the queen mother to learn from it. ”

The rest of the ministers all bowed their heads and said in unison: "The ministers also seconded the proposal!" ”

When the Queen Mother saw that she had reached such a point, especially when she saw Huan Yuan's posture, she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only agree. So Chongde Tai issued an edict: The Son of Heaven is mediocre and immoral, but the emperor should be inhabited by the virtuous, so he respects the way of heaven, imitates Yao Shun, and puts the emperor in the Huiji King Sima Yu, and abolishes the set as the king of the East China Sea.

On the same day, Huan Yuan sent Liu Heng, a loose horseman, into the palace to confiscate the national seal, and forced Sima Ji not to delay and leave the palace immediately. Although it was early winter, Jiankang was located in the south of the Yangtze River should not be very cold, but the day was full of gloom, cold wind, Sima Ji's hair was scattered, his eyes were blank, his face was full of decadence, he walked out of the West Hall on foot with only a single clothes, and under the urging of Liu Heng, he only took an ox cart out of the Divine Beast Gate, and left the palace where he lived for less than a hundred days. Later, Sima Ji was demoted to the Duke of Haixi, and was forced to move to live in Xichaili, Wu County, and lived in a simple house all day long, closed doors, and lived cautiously, and finally Sima Ji died of illness in Wu County at the age of forty-five.

Besides, Yun Meng has been under house arrest in his room for many days, and the news is also isolated, and he has no idea what is happening in the outside world. At the beginning, Yun Meng also tried his best to get out, not lying that he wanted to see Yu Weng for something, but also looking for Qing Yao, and even a few times Yun Meng wanted to escape while the servants were delivering food, but the guards outside the door refused or blocked back, it seems that it is indeed impossible to leave. Later, Yun Meng simply read books all day long in the house, and it was very quiet. In fact, Yun Meng was just calm on the surface, but in his heart he was wondering why Huan Yuan let him think about it, what did the teacher know, or was there a misunderstanding between himself and the teacher?

At night, in the study room of the mansion of the general Zhengxi, Huan Yuan was sitting in danger, and Yu Weng was standing aside. On the table in front of Huan Yuan was the good news that the former enemy had just sent, and the good news said that Yin Yuan had a smooth departure, and he had won the first battle just after arriving in Shouchun, and now the Fu clan had retreated to the Xuchang area, and Yin Yuan was ready to take a short rest and then wave his army to Xuchang. Huan Yuan's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word, Yu Weng said softly: "Yin Yuan's small victory is just a fluke, the master doesn't need to be like this." ”

Huan Yuan closed the good news and said: "This person must not be underestimated, if he is given a chance to breathe, once his momentum grows, the situation may not be easy to control." ”

Yu Weng said again: "Now that the court is up and down, it is all in the master's hands, even if he Yin Yuan has the ability, what can he do?" At that time, it only takes a single edict to easily cut off his military power. ”

Huan Yuan turned his head and glanced at Yu Weng, there was a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, which frightened Yu Weng to shut up in a hurry, Huan Yuan said: "Is Yu Weng old and confused?" Is it even the head of the house who wants to do it? ”

Yu Weng shook his head again and again, and apologized: "The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave doesn't dare, the old slave talks a lot, and asks the master to forgive his sins." ”

Huan Yuan snorted lightly and asked, "These days, Yun Meng is a rule?" ”

Yun Meng replied: "Back to the master, Yun Meng has been staying in the room for the past few days, at first he wanted to take the opportunity to sneak out, but because someone guarded him, he didn't succeed, but these days he didn't make trouble, he quieted down, and stayed in the room all day long to read, and didn't leave half a step." ”

"Well, it seems that there are some things he doesn't know, just some emotions, so he still has some value. By the way, what about Qing Yao? Why haven't you seen him for a few days? Huan Yuan said again.

Yu Weng replied: "Back to the master, Qingyao, this little guy, his mood seems to be a little fluctuating, he locks himself in the room all day long, and repeatedly only says that he is sorry for the son, and the old slave is afraid that he will do bad things, do you see the master?" ”

Huan Yuan pondered for a moment and then said: "Qing Yao's move is no less effective than Yun Meng, and other others can't replace him, so he can't be moved at the moment." Go and steady him, and reassure him with kind words, and tell him that if you finish the last thing, I will allow him to fly away. In addition, Quanta was also notified and ordered to prepare. Yu Weng received the order and slowly withdrew from the study.
