Taihe Temple.

Ye Gucheng lay quietly on the soft couch, looking tired, but he couldn't sleep.

One hand, as white as jade, gently touched Ye Gucheng's forehead, and the smart fingers gently smoothed the ripples on his eyebrows.

Ye Gucheng looked sideways, facing a pair of beautiful eyes like stars and moons, and his beautiful eyes flashed with worry. "Why doesn't my husband go to sleep?"

Ye Gucheng smiled reluctantly and said softly: "Lady can't help but worry, I just have no intention of sleeping!"

"If you don't have any worries in your heart, why don't you have the heart to sleep! My husband has been in poor spirits recently, but it's because of General Xuanyuan?" Although Li Yueli lives in the harem, she still knows a little bit about the affairs of the court.

Ye Gucheng was silent for a long time, and said softly: "Does the lady want Xuanyuan Xue to die?"

"Fujun said that General Xuanyuan is a good general, Yueli doesn't know how to distinguish between good and bad!" Li Yueli said this, looked deeply at the beloved man and continued: "But Yueli knows that when Fujun was attacked and the kingdom was in danger, it was General Xuanyuan who turned the tide to maintain the stability of the kingdom and protect Yueli and Hongchen from bullying, and Yueli didn't want to see General Xuanyuan die unjustly. ”

Hearing these words, Ye Gucheng was extremely moved, and hugged Li Yueli tightly, as if he wanted to get more motivation from it.

"My husband has always said that I don't want to be a king! Because you are not a king, but the commander of the three armies! But husband, have you thought about it, in fact, you are already a king! No one in the kingdom denies this. Li Yueli didn't want to talk about this, but she couldn't watch her beloved man fall into a whirlpool of contradictions.

"Yueli's father, the marquis of the western realm, is in charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the entire western realm! However, in front of the king, my father is always cautious, because the king will always be the king, the minister, and the minister will be a minister for the first time! The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die! Yueli knows that the husband is born in poverty, and he knows very well that it is not easy for the poor family, and he sets the law to protect the common people! Kefujun, the law is determined by the king, and it can be broken by the king, and the king's order, who dares to disobey the subjects?"

Ye Gucheng was stunned suddenly, and slowly pushed Li Yueli away, looking at her carefully as if he had met her for the first time.

Li Yueli smiled shyly and said slowly: "Husband, don't look at Yueli like this, Yueli is a little unaccustomed... ”

"Oh my God, lady, why are you hiding so deeply! My husband never knew you had such wisdom!" Ye Gucheng was indeed surprised.

Yueli read some books when she was young, and her father often talked about some important things with Yueli, but her husband's intelligence far exceeded Yueli's, and Yueli didn't dare to be ugly. Li Yueli may not be able to bear the strange gaze, so she couldn't help lowering her head and said: "Actually, the husband doesn't understand this, but he is bent on taking the law as a criterion, but ignores the power of the king." ”

This is probably the authorities' obsession with bystanders, Ye Gucheng was awakened by Li Yueli, and suddenly became enlightened.

"Thank you lady for mentioning it, open it for the husband!" Ye Gucheng was in a good mood, staring at Li Yueli's delicate body with squinting eyes and said: "Now, it's getting late, such a beautiful day, shouldn't we continue to create a little red dust." ”

Li Yueli's face suddenly flushed with shame, and she was about to speak, but she was hugged by Ye Gucheng and exclaimed.

In the storm, the house is full of spring!

This rainstorm is coming and going quickly!

The next day, the royal capital was full of people and full of vitality.

On the king's palace.

Zheng Wenlong glanced at the civilian official on the side, the latter understood, and quickly stepped out of the column and knelt down and said: "Commander Qiqi, now the army is unstable, and the people's anger is boiling, and they all angrily accuse the commander of the unfair handling of things, and the rebellious ministers and thieves who commit crimes are all killed, but Xuanyuan Xue is still at large, and he also asks the commander to order the killing of the law." ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused dissatisfaction among many generals of the Xuanyuan clan, but they were not as violent as Xuanyuan Jianhong, so they could still stand on top of the temple.

Zhang Yi quickly stepped out of the queue and saluted: "Think twice, the commander-in-chief may still have an inside story about Xuanyuan Xue's matter, and it is better to investigate it in detail." ”

"What else can be checked? Pile by pile, there is a solid basis, the subjects can see it, Zhang Yi, you are shielding Xuanyuan Xue like this, could it be that you are his accomplice?" Zheng Wenlong angrily went back on the spot.

Zhang Yi was short of breath and suddenly had nothing to say.

"Taiwei Zheng!" Ye Gucheng smiled dumbly, and immediately, his expression turned cold, and he said indifferently: "What a big official, he called the right prime minister by his name in court, and he contradicted the right minister, and I don't know where the confidence came from!"

Zheng Wenlong's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly knelt down and said: "The commander is angry, the minister is guilty, and the minister is anxious for a while, and he forgets to be proportionate." ”

Zhang Yi looked at Ye Gucheng a little weirdly, in the court, the ministers had their own opinions, and sometimes they contradicted their superiors, this is not a big deal, why is the commander angry this time?

Xuanyuan Xue is the head of the generals, in terms of official position, one level older than you, and now he has not been convicted, what about you, he calls him by his name, let me ask you, the rank of the monarch and minister of the Huaxia Kingdom still exists in your eyes?"

Zheng Wenlong was so frightened that he kowtowed again and again, and shouted: "The commander is angry, and the minister is guilty." ”

The officials are not idiots, how can they not hear that Ye Gucheng intends to protect Xuanyuan Xue, but they don't dare to attack when they see the main backbone, and Ye Gucheng is angry again, and they are silent.

"And you. Ye Gucheng turned his gaze, stared coldly at the civil official kneeling under His Highness, and said indifferently: "What did you just say?"

The civil official felt a chill in his heart, and trembled: "Minister... Minister... ”

Ye Gucheng's eyes were even colder, and he said coldly: "It seems that you all seem to have forgotten one thing, what is a king and what is a minister." ”

"Those who are ministers do something and don't do something. A civil official hurriedly stepped out of the line and saluted: "The commander sets the law, so that the subjects obey it, the benchmark of the kingdom's behavior, those who break the law are equivalent to treason, General Xuanyuan Xue, as the head of the generals, should be clean and self-disciplined." If the commander insists on upholding those who violate the law, the people will not accept it, and the ministers will not accept it. ”

Unexpectedly, the civil official who spoke was not Cheng Wenlong's faction, but a newly promoted official who has always remained neutral.

Ye Gucheng couldn't help but take a look at it, and said slowly, "What's your name?"

There are many military generals in Wenchen, and it is common sense that Ye Gucheng can't remember his name.

"Minister, Yu Wenhao. "The face of the civil official does not change.

"Very good!" Ye Gucheng smiled coldly and said in a deep voice: "Someone!"

The palace guard stepped inside.

"Down, go to prison!"

"The minister is not wrong, the minister is not convinced, the minister is not convinced!" Yu Wenhao saw the palace guard step forward and shouted loudly.

"Dissatisfied?" Ye Gucheng's face sank, and he reprimanded angrily: "In your eyes, in addition to the law, there is also the way of the handsome?

Yu Wenhao was stunned.

"Hold it down. ”

Ye Gucheng waved his hand, and the palace guards quickly escorted Yu Wenhao away.

"Ben Shuai knows what you think in your heart, you don't have to continue to guess, today, above this court, Ben Shuai will clearly tell you that Ben Shuai is determined to defend Xuanyuan Xiu, who is not convinced, you can stand up. This is the first time that Ye Gucheng has made it clear that he is short.

The generals of the Xuanyuan clan were suddenly overjoyed, but the ministers on the other side had extremely ugly faces.

Zhang Yi saw all this in his eyes, and he was inevitably uneasy in his heart, and he was more worried about one thing, the commander personally broke the law he set, although he saved Xuanyuan Xue, but once this case was opened, there would be endless troubles.

There are also some newly promoted officials who think the same way as Zhang Yi, they are not from families, it can be said that most of them are from the bottom, and their way to promotion is through the scientific selection set up by Ye Gucheng.

The laws of the Huaxia Kingdom are different from any other kingdom, unique and charming, breaking the traditional restrictions of origin, as long as there is talent and ambition, everyone can enter the court as an official. For this alone, it has been embraced by countless civilians.

Now that the opposition has finally been extinguished, the law of the Kingdom is on the right track, and the law of the commoners, which they do not want to support, has been undermined.

Another new civil servant was listed. "The commander thinks twice, since the kingdom of the king, everyone has a rule to abide by, and there are rules and regulations to behave in a proper manner, once the law is broken。。。。。。 ”

"Come on, take them down, and put them in prison. At this moment, Ye Gucheng was like returning to the beginning of the founding of the country, barbaric and rude, unreasonable.

The ministers watched in a daze as another courtier was escorted away, and a strange and depressing atmosphere slowly flowed.

"Who else? Da Ke can stand up, as long as you dare to stretch out your head, Ben Shuai will dare to cut, do you really think that without Huaxia Kingdom, you will not be able to turn around?" Ye Gucheng's face sank like water, and he said coldly: "When the kingdom is in danger, what are you doing? What have you done? If there is no General Xuanyuan to stabilize the situation, you can still stand here in peace and stability at this moment? As soon as the crisis is over, you are in a hurry to unload the mill and kill the donkey, this is what you do? You are really a good minister of the kingdom!"

Among the courtiers, there are ashamed and resentful, among them, Zheng Wenlong is the most annoyed, if it weren't for the fear that Ye Gucheng would kill him, he really wanted to refute it loudly!

And Zheng Wenlong's faction, seeing that the main backbone did not say a word, and when he was disappointed, no one dared to speak out.

For a moment, Ye Gucheng suddenly felt very bored! Why can't the kingdom he worked so hard to build reach the heights he imagined!

Is it really that difficult to tolerate each other and coexist in harmony?

"Retreat. Ye Gucheng was not only happy, but also ignored the courtiers and left.

At this point, all the ministers also knew that they were powerless to return to the sky, so they shook their heads and sighed and walked out of the hall.

The ministers of the clan may not dare to vent their dissatisfaction on Ye Gucheng, but they are really disappointed with Zheng Wenlong, who is as timid as a mouse, and they all walk away with disdain.

Zheng Wenlong saw it in his eyes, was anxious, and hated Ye Gucheng more and more.

"The demon is in chaos, and the kingdom is in danger!"

In the distance, a civil official raised his head and screamed.

"Brother Wenyuan, pay attention to your words, and be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth. Another young officer hurriedly admonished.

"I'm very afraid, if I can't fight, I'll die, but it's a pity that the commander is wise and powerful, and he is blinded by the demon, and if the demon is not eliminated for a day, the kingdom will not be at peace!"

When the young official saw many courtiers looking at this, he was anxious, and hurriedly pulled up his colleagues and left. "Brother Wenyuan, don't say a word, you don't want to think about yourself, you have to think about the newborn child, right?"

Only then did the civil official stop his mouth and follow the young man away.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and turned around towards the harem.
