Chapter 238: The Powerful Emperor

Chapter 238 The Powerful Emperor With the handling of these three things, the court discussion in the court gradually began, and a series of things went through the emperor's strength just now, and now all the courtiers are calm, and their words are carefully considered, even if they are opposed, they are not as good as the guns and sticks in the past, and they are full of gunpowder.

Niu Yilang and Wei Qiao glanced at each other and nodded silently.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have their own music." After the business was dealt with one by one, Wei Qiao was the first to stand up, clenching his fists and bowing.

"Say." The emperor's expression showed a trace of impatience, and he glanced at him with a slight frown and said lightly.

With such an obvious look, not only Wei Qiao, but also other courtiers were secretly shocked.

Wei Qiao quietly glanced at Niu Yilang, and said: "Your Majesty, it was recently said that someone shouted injustice in the Yushitai, saying that the case of bribery and bribery by the officials of the Criminal Department caused a family of more than a dozen to be unjustly killed. ”

After Wei Qiao finished speaking, Niu Yilang also stubbornly came out and said: "Your Majesty, the person who shouted the grievances described it in detail, and the minister thought that it was not a malicious planting, and the minister implored the emperor to be clear!" ”

As soon as Niu Yilang's words ended, Chang Zhi immediately stood up and clenched his fists loudly: "The minister is in charge of the criminal department for a ......."

"Okay," Emperor Wenzheng waved his hand lightly, looked at the elders in front of him with a cold expression, and said, "Cabinet, the cabinet will investigate this matter first." Zheng Qiu, you come to check. ”

Seeing that the emperor's face was wrong, everyone shut up with interest, whether it was Niu Yilang Weiqiao or Chang Zhi.

Zheng Qiu hurriedly came out and hugged his fists and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Emperor Wenzheng's eyes swept a faint glance at the courtiers below, and said: "Recently, Jinling is quite unpeaceful, that is, Jinling is under martial law, and the Yulin army is inspecting Jinling!" ”

The voice was resolute and irrefutable.

When the courtiers in the palace heard this, they were all shocked, did the emperor's words imply something?

But the emperor didn't give the courtiers a chance to ask questions, and stood up directly and said, "Retreat from the court." After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and strode away, telling the courtiers that I was very unhappy today.

As the emperor strode away, all the courtiers were stunned for a while, this was the first time in the twenty years of Wenzheng, and the emperor was so strong that the courtiers were not allowed to express their opinions. Those who saw some of the situation were secretly shocked, and those who didn't know why thought that it was Yushitai who angered the emperor, and many people cast annoyed eyes on Niu Yilang Weiqiao.

Niu Yilang and Wei Qiao walked out of the hall side by side, and said in a low voice as they walked: "Liyuan, we may be frowning this time." ”

Although Wei Qiao also had doubts in his heart, he still smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, my lord, we are worthy of anyone for our loyalty, so if the emperor wants to blame, he can only blame Chang Zhi, and he can't blame us on the stage of imperial history." ”

Ushiichiro nodded, but the worried look on his face did not diminish in the slightest as he frowned.

"Wei Liyuan." Wei Qiao was just about to persuade again, when suddenly a shout came from behind him.

Wei Qiao looked back, only to see Fu Mingzheng looking at him with a smile not far away, said a word to Niu Yilang, and hurriedly walked over. Counting up, since Fu Mingzheng entered the cabinet and left the Yushitai, the two rarely get along alone, and it is the first time that Fu Ming is calling Wei Qiao with such fanfare.

"Liyuan, come with me." Fu Mingzheng looked at the crowd of people out of the hall, and said with a smile.

Wei Qiao also nodded with a smile and followed Fu Mingzheng's side. But the people who left couldn't help but glance at each other, and their expressions were extremely profound.

The two walked a few steps, Fu Mingzheng looked at Wei Qiao and said, "Liyuan, have you received the appointment paper?" ”

Wei Qiao had a thought in his heart, and said with a calm smile: "I received it, my lord also knows that I am not good at military affairs, so I haven't gone to order it." Wei Qiao naturally understood what Fu Mingzheng meant, but the voice outside the words was also obvious, that is, Yulin Jun, I won't fight with you.

Fu Mingzheng was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Liyuan, you still haven't seen the power represented by your current status. ”

Wei Qiao looked at Fu Mingzheng and said, "Please also ask for your advice." ”

Fu Mingzheng stopped, looked at Fu Mingzheng and said, "Liyuan, I think you also know the current situation." Not only the emperor is laying out, but my father, teachers, and even King Jin are all laying out. The emperor's layout has been in place for 20 years, and his status is very big, and his bureau is naturally the most grand and mysterious, he is for Daqi and the future emperor, so he continues to promote the change of the identity of the two of us, so as to bring various opportunities to complete the layout. And my father is also for Daqi, so he pushed me into the cabinet to replace him, so now I can use all the power of the Fu family. As for the teacher, his and his father are basically the same mind, but his mind is more on the Xiongnu outside the Guan, but whether it is for the stability of Daqi or to deal with the Xiongnu outside the Guanwai, the martial arts family cannot be dispersed, and the three generals entering Jinling are not so much recruited by the imperial court as they are asked to meet you. With your mind, I don't think you don't know the truth about this, do you? ”

Wei Qiao nodded lightly, a little crying and laughing in his heart. Since he woke up, he has wanted to be free and easy, but life does not let him go, but he just doesn't let him go.

It can be seen from the strong martial arts to suppress Du Qili Weiqiao for him, and later Sima Shengchang was given to him as a personal guard, he was still a little hesitant at the time, and later the martial artists wanted Wu Qingning to sit in Jiangnan after the New Year, which was clearly that the martial artists wanted to hand over the power of the martial arts family to their husband and wife.

Fu Mingzheng saw Wei Qiao nodding, so he smiled and said, "So, you should adapt to your role as soon as possible now, whether it is for the teacher or for the sake of Daqi, you have to turn yourself into a big man, and the big man must have great courage!" ”

Big shots, big courage? Wei Qiao chewed and said thoughtfully: "What do you mean, let me go to the Yulin Army to fight?" "No matter which emperor Yanjing doesn't want his subordinates to be monolithic, fighting and fighting is sometimes not only for profit, but also to cater to the hopes and needs of the emperor above.

Fu Mingzheng nodded and shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's not about fighting, but about complete control." Didn't the teacher give you a hundred guards of the hundred battles, and you can insert these into it. ”

Wei Qiao knew that Fu Mingzheng was ordering him, but he still didn't understand his reason for doing so.

Fu Mingzheng looked at Wei Qiao's expression and said, "You have been in the court for a short time, and you can't understand what the Fu family represents. What you have to do now is to take full control of Jinling City, and you must firmly control any other forces except the Imperial Forest Army. ”

Wei Qiao was secretly shocked in his heart, the strength of the Fu family was so strong, did he have to use the non-military force of the entire Jinling to fight it?

Fu Mingzheng saw Wei Qiao's confused expression, and sighed with a sigh: "Actually, I don't understand this specific reason, but this situation forces you to do this." The emperor's imperial technique can't even be guessed by my father, so we can only follow his layout. ”

Wei Qiao's heart moved, and he suddenly realized. Yes, although Fu Li and the martial disciples united with the King of Jin to fight against the emperor, Fu Li's martial disciples were essentially loyal to Daqi and did not want a big mess in Daqi, and both of them also hoped that Daqi could smoothly transition and continue the national ancestry, which was completely different from King Jin's thoughts.

Therefore, the martial apprentice and Fu Li should have connived or even helped the emperor's layout, perhaps this was also expected by the emperor, so the three of them actually had a tacit understanding.

Wei Qiao's heart rolled for a while, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"My lord, I see." Wei Qiao sighed in his heart, he could vaguely see something he couldn't see before.

Fu Mingzheng glanced at him with a smile and said, "Well, the Yulin Army will be handed over to you, and the garrison outside the city has also been taken over by Chief Sima." ”

Wei Qiao was stunned in his heart, hasn't the army outside Jinling always been directly controlled by the emperor?

But Fu Mingzheng didn't explain much, but said with a smile: "Regarding the matter of the Xiongnu envoy, you can do it yourself, and the cabinet will not have an opinion." ”

Wei Qiao nodded, this envoy came at this time to observe the Great Qi court and armaments, and to delay the blame as much as possible.

After saying a few more words, Fu Mingzheng didn't say more, asked a few words about Fu Yang and went back to the cabinet.

Wei Qiao carefully recalled Fu Mingzheng's words, and walked out of the palace gate unconsciously.

"Lord Wei." Wei Qiao had just walked out of the palace gate, Xiu'er and Xu Mao had just walked over, and a pretty little maid on the other side walked quickly towards Wei Qiao.

Wei Qiao glanced at it, but it was a person from Princess Li's Luo Tong Mansion, and Wei Qiao had seen it a few times.

The pretty little maid walked up to Wei Qiao, bowed slightly, and said softly, "Lord Wei, my wife invites you to come over, and I have something important to tell you." ”

'Discuss matters'? Wei Qiao had actually guessed it, but he still hesitated in his heart. I'm afraid it's not a good thing for this princess to come to her at this time, but if she refuses directly, she will inevitably lose face.

Wei Qiao groaned and said, "Okay, you lead the way." Wei Qiao greeted Xiu'er and Xu Mao, got into a sedan chair and followed behind the pretty little maid.

Because of the order of the martial apprentices, every time Wei Qiao went out, Xiu'er followed him with more than a dozen guards. Although Wei Qiao was extremely unaccustomed to it, he did not object to the eventful autumn now, and let them follow.

"Lord Wei, please." Walking to the backyard of King Li's mansion, in front of Luo Tong's house, the pretty little maid pushed open the doorway.

Wei Qiao smiled and nodded, and stepped in.

Wei Qiao walked into the room, but found that there was no one in the hall, so he walked inside again.

Wei Qiao had just walked past the pink curtain when he asked a burst of water vapor with a rich fragrance, and a refreshing fragrance shook his whole body.

As a passerby, he immediately smelled that it was the smell of a woman bathing.

Wei Qiao looked at the translucent curtain, and saw a tall woman with a curvy figure slowly walking out of the bath.

Wei Qiao was shocked, and hurriedly retreated quietly, but his eyes were attracted by the pale pink bib on the curtain, and when he saw a white jade hand stretched out, he hurriedly retreated, sat on the chair in the living room, glanced at the curtain, and rubbed his nose with some dissatisfaction.

- This Luo Tong must have done it on purpose!

Soon, Luo Tong was dressed in tulle, his shoulders were scattered, his delicate body was graceful, and he walked out in a graceful manner.

I saw her, her pretty face was white and flushed, her eyes were like water, her agate-like nose was a little droplet, her delicate and white cherry lips were refracting the crystal water, her pink neck was like a snow-white jade carving, her breasts were tall and round, her lower abdomen was flat and smooth, her slender waist was twisting like a water snake, and her slender ** was tight and delicate between the staggered movements.

Wei Qiao quietly drank tea with a teacup, as if he didn't see Luo Tong come out.

Luo Tonglian moved lightly, sat up next to Wei Qiao with a refreshing aroma, looked at Wei Qiao, and said intently: "You should praise me calmly?" It means to tell Wei Qiao that you don't hide your ears and steal the bell.

Wei Qiao put down the teacup, looked at Luo Tong and said seriously: "Girl, you have a peerless appearance, you are glamorous in the world, Xiaosheng is shocked, and you can't ......sleep at night."

Luo Tong's beautiful eyes stared at Wei Qiao, full of fragrance, interrupting his burning gaze and saying, "You think I'm deliberately seducing you?" ”

Wei Qiao also stared at her, not retreating, "It's not the first time. ”

Luo Tong's beautiful eyes didn't blink, "What if I say it's not?" ”

Wei Qiao also didn't move, "I will believe you." ”

After a long time, Luo Tong's pretty face bloomed like a flower, and she laughed out loud.

Wei Qiao also turned his face with a faint smile, his expression calm and calm.

After Luo Tong's laughter fell, the two fell silent.

After a long time, Luo Tong turned his head and said again, "You don't want to know why I came to you?" ”

Wei Qiao's expression was light, and he said, "You will say it." ”

Luo Tong glared at him, as if she had never seen such a graceless man as Wei Qiao.

But Wei Qiao was unmoved, he knew that Luo Tong called him today, there must be something to ask him, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do this matter, so it is better to pretend to be deaf and dumb at this time.

Luo Tong can't either, the forces she runs are completely useless at this time, so she can only turn to Wei Qiao for help, but Wei Qiao doesn't give her any face.

After a long time, Luo Tong gritted his teeth, stared at Wei Qiao and said, "I'll tell you two things, and you promise me a request." ”

Wei Qiao calmly picked up the teacup and said, "Let's talk about your request first." In fact, it was inevitable that I felt embarrassed, especially when I remembered what happened in the carriage that day.

Luo Tong was angry and said directly: "Wei Liyuan, have you forgotten what happened in the carriage?" ”

As soon as Wei Qiao thought about it, his face couldn't help but flash with embarrassment, and said, "Madame, let's talk about it." He knew that Luo Tong even said this, that was really angry.

Luo Tong's face showed a hint of anger, charming and enchanting. Although Wei Qiao knew that it was pretended, he still blushed, as if he really had some unsavory relationship with Luo Tong.

Luo Tong saw Wei Qiao's face turned red, and the corners of his crystal mouth were slightly upturned, and said, "Let me tell you the first thing, which is about smuggling." ”

Wei Qiao's expression perked up, this matter had always been a mystery in his heart. He checked and found that King Jin didn't seem to be involved in this matter, although some spearheads pointed at King Jin, but Wei Qiao couldn't find any clues, but it was a bit like someone deliberately wanted to lead King Jin.

Luo Tong saw Wei Qiao's eyes shining, and said, "The real mastermind of this matter should be...... Your Majesty, don't ask about the evidence, I don't have either. ”

When Wei Qiao heard this, his heart was shocked, his face was stunned, and the first reaction in his eyes was disbelief.

How can there be an emperor who is an enemy, this world is not the courtiers, not Fu Li's, not the martial arts, not the King of Jin, but his emperor's! Zhou Yanzhao will smuggle the Xiongnu to increase the strength of the Xiongnu and subvert his Zhou dynasty, this is simply a big joke, and it is a complete cold joke!

Luo Tong looked at Wei Qiao's stunned expression, smiled lightly, and showed a hint of fear on his charming face, and said: "The current emperor is not something you and I can speculate on, he once said that Daqi needs enemies." ”

Need an enemy? The astonishment in Wei Qiao's eyes quickly retreated, and he thought about it urgently. He knew that more than ten years ago, the warriors and the Xiongnu had several fierce battles, and almost every time they were defeated, but the Xiongnu were not as well supplied as Daqi, and they had to cultivate and recuperate to avoid the cold winter every time it was cold, so the warriors fought their legs and hit the Huns hard in a cold winter, so that the Huns have been in a defensive state of recovery for more than ten years, and Daqi has been worry-free for more than ten years.

But what exactly does he mean by 'the need for an enemy'?

Luo Tong was silent when he saw it, and said, "Possibly, in order to suppress the chaos within Daqi." ”

Wei Qiao suddenly suddenly, yes, at that time, the Great Qi Dynasty was unstable, and various forces continued to emerge, looking like a chaotic era when the world was in turmoil and changing dynasties, could it be that the emperor used the Huns, a foreign enemy, to suppress the internal chaos and divert contradictions?

Wei Qiao nodded thoughtfully, feeling that although this was not necessarily the real reason, it was not far off. At the same time, he was also shocked in his heart, he never expected that this person who smuggled the Huns, checked and checked, and finally turned out to be the emperor of Daqi! If there is no conclusive evidence, I'm afraid even the martial apprentice Fu Li won't believe it, right?

Wei Qiao suppressed the shock in his heart, looked up at Luo Tong, who had a pink face and charming eyes, and said, "What do you want?" He felt that this alone was enough for him to agree to Luo Tong's more excessive request.

When Luo Tong heard this, his eyes flashed, and he said, "I'll tell you one more news." ”

Wei Qiao hesitated, but nodded. After listening to one more, Luo Tong's request may not be so easy to agree.

Luo Tong looked directly at Wei Qiao with his eyes, and said with a solemn expression, "I got the news that the Jin Palace's Mansion is mobilizing the dead soldiers who are raised, and the target is you and Mingzheng." ”

Wei Qiao's expression changed slightly, and then his eyes flashed rapidly, and after a long time, he suddenly smiled faintly and said, "How do you know?" ”

The corners of Luo Tong's mouth showed a hint of smugness, and he said with a smile: "Don't forget my identity." ”

Wei Qiao only reacted at this time, this is Princess Li, wait, who did he think of her just now?

Wei Qiao hurriedly shook his head in his heart, and then frowned again, this King Jin is really a ruthless character, since there is no way to break the game, he will directly destroy the chess pieces, so that the chess game cannot be carried out, and this cannot but be said to be a way to break the game!

Wei Qiao also remembered that the martial apprentice sent him a hundred guards at this time, and Xiu'er has been leading people to follow him recently, and sure enough, Jiang is old and spicy, I am afraid that the martial apprentice thought of this stubble at that time to take precautions in advance.

Wei Qiao pondered for a while, looked up at Luo Tong and said, "Then do you know why the emperor wants me to control the Yulin Army?" ”
