CHAPTER IX

In the palace, the liquid pool, the warm breeze blows lightly, the weeping willows are clinging, and the swallows are flying, full of spring vitality. The crowd by the pool just now disappeared, and only a few eunuchs and palace maids were cleaning up.

Where have the people gone?

People are in the hall of the two ceremonies.

Li Yu's eyes have been opened, his mouth is slightly open, if you look closely, there is a thin shiny thing flowing out of his mouth, fortunately, the beard is thick, covering the part, and the ministers don't dare to look closely, and they don't make a fool of themselves.

Li Chun was still standing next to him, his face was no different from usual, but there seemed to be some confusion between his eyebrows.

There are already a few more people than just now, Du Huangsheng, Du You and others are impressively listed, and there is also a military general. Ju Wenzhen has returned, her face is still calm, but her eyes are a little more joyful, and there is still some fierce light when you look closely.

Liu Guangqi, Yang Zhilian, Sun Rongyi and others standing on the side all put their hands in front of them, their eyebrows lowered and pleasing to their eyes, and they couldn't see the slightest content on their faces except for deference.

And Xue Yingzhen, who had just taken control of the right to speak and the right to draw, was paralyzed on the ground, her eyes were distracted, her face was full of shock, and she couldn't say a word.

After a while, Xue Yingzhen reacted, sat up suddenly, and shouted: "Your Majesty, the old slave is wronged, this must be framed by someone, someone is framed, Your Majesty is going to listen to the villain's words!" As he spoke, he lunged forward, but was held down tightly by the two samurai.

Ju Wenzhen's gloomy voice came from behind: "Xue Gong, our family really didn't expect that Your Majesty trusts you so much, but you think that Your Majesty is sick and will be deceived by you, and you actually want to rebel, it's really unpredictable!" As he spoke, he saluted Li Yu and said, "Your Majesty, I implore you to order Qianniuwei, Zhongwuwei, Jin Wuwei and others to strengthen their vigilance, order the Criminal Department and Jingzhao to raid the Xue family, and not to leak the relevant people, etc., and quickly order the Shence Army to guard the Guanzhong to prevent Xue Yingzhen and the party from jumping off the wall in a hurry." ”

Li Yu couldn't help but secretly praise, falling into the well, high, really high! Before she could answer, Xue Yingzhen shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the old slave is loyal, this must be Ju Wenzhen's wife who sees His Majesty favoring the old slave and framing the old slave." Ju Wenzhen, you don't want to spew blood, the first emperor died that day, my old Xue Yi strongly advocated welcoming His Majesty to the throne, but you want to set up a new king, obviously you want to rebel, but you framed me! Your Majesty is going to be deceived by this! ”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Ju Wenzhen, Liu Guangqi, etc., Du Huangshang and Du You's hearts jumped, secretly scolding Xue Yingzhen for this scourge, Ju Wenzhen is powerful, if he is in a hurry, he may not know what he will do.

Sure enough, Ju Wenzhen took off her hat, knelt down in front of Li Yu, and said with a pause: "Your Majesty, the old slave is finally Your Majesty, and this heart can show the sun and the moon." Xue Yingzhen was frantic and indiscriminately climbing, it must be a rebellion, the old slave asked His Majesty to quickly descend to the decree to try Xue Yingzhen's case, and then Ming Zhengzheng. Otherwise, the old slave is afraid of chilling the hearts of loyal ministers and soldiers! When he spoke, he deliberately bit the "soldier" very hard, and the threat was already obvious. Liu Guangqi, Yang Zhilian, Sun Rongyi and others all participated in this matter, and they knelt down together at the moment and asked Xue Yingzhen to be brought to justice quickly.

Li Yu looked at Du Huangsheng, Du You, Zheng Xunyu, Gao Ying, etc., these people all knew that Li Yu had favored Xue Yingzhen recently, but Du Huangshang and Du You still nodded, suggesting that Li Yu abandon Xue Yingzhen, but Zheng and Gao pretended not to see it, obviously afraid of things. Li Yu secretly said in his heart that these two people can quit in two months. looked at Li Chun again, but saw that Li Chun was also looking at him, obviously afraid that Li Chun would lose a big deal because of a small loss. Li Yu nodded slightly, signaling that he understood, and Li Chun became relaxed.

Li Yu was originally thinking about whether to protect Xue Yingzhen, after all, his original plan was to use Xue Yingzhen to contain Ju Wenzhen, but now it's okay, don't think about it. So he ordered Ju Wenzhen and the others to get up, waved their hands, and the palace guards came up and dragged Xue Yingzhen down. Xue Yingzhen shouted and scolded herself, her voice was extremely poignant. On the side, Liu Guangqi, Yang Zhilian, Sun Rongyi and others stood up, all of them knew that Xue Yingzhen would definitely die if she went, and she couldn't help but feel sad and her heart was cold. But Ju Wenzhen put on her hat and looked proud.

What's going on?

It turned out that when Xue Yingzhen instigated Li Yu to investigate Han Yu, there was a sudden sound of continuous police drums outside the palace, which was set up by Ma Zhou, a famous minister of Taizong, Ma Zhou in order to maintain better social order in Chang'an, set up many police drums on the main road in Chang'an City, and in case of special circumstances, he ordered people to beat the drums for the letter. With so many police drums sounding, something big must have happened, so Li Yu immediately ordered Gou Sheng to find out what was going on, Gou Sheng only went for a while, but Ju Wenzhen, who had already left, came back, and without looking at Xue Yingzhen, he bowed down and said to Li Yu: "Your Majesty, Fan Xichao, the general of the Right Jin Wuwei, has an urgent matter to meet. At that moment, everyone was stunned, Jin Wuwei was in charge of the Chang'an garrison, and Fan Xichao had an urgent matter, could there really be something serious? Li Yu hurriedly ordered Fan Xichao to be announced.

Not long after, a white-bearded old general hurriedly walked over, this person was Fan Xichao, the current official of the right Jin Wuwei general.

Fan Xichao, the word to Jun, a native of Yuxiang in Hezhong, in his early years, he joined Han Youpu as a general from the Suining Jiedu, and in the rebellion of the four towns, the accumulated military achievements continued to move to the imperial history of Zhongcheng, and after recovering Chang'an, Fan Xichao was placed in the Shence Army to serve. Han Youpu died in the fourth year of Zhenyuan, and his subordinates jointly wrote a letter requesting the transfer of Fan Xichao to succeed him as the envoy of the Suining Festival. Dezong allowed it to play. But Fan Xichao recommended Zhang Xianfu to replace him. In this regard, Dezong not only agreed, but also issued an edict to reward. Later, Dezong appointed Fan Xichao as the envoy of Zhenwu (present-day northwest of Inner Mongolia and Lingel County), and inspected the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. In the last years of Zhenyuan, Fan Xichao was already old, and he kept asking for the return of the dynasty. Jie Du makes the weight, arbitrary party, many people covet this position, unwilling to leave, Fan Xichao took the initiative to ask to go to the court, so that Dezong was very happy, so he called Fan Xichao to return to the court, pay homage to the right servant of the school, and the general Jin Wuwei. After Li Yu ascended the throne, he knew that Fan Xichao was a generation of famous generals, and he was loyal, and Wang Shuwen also favored Fan Xichao when Yongzhen was reformed, so he let him take the original position. Put your safety in his hands.

Fan Xichao really brought bad news: someone in Chang'an City rebelled!

As soon as these words came out, even Xue Yingzhen, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly straightened up, and Li Yu was even more strange: There is no record in the history books that there was a rebellion in Chang'an this year?

Of course, this kind of national affairs cannot be discussed in a leisure place like Taiye Pool, so Li Yu ordered the relocation of the Liangyi Palace, and ordered people to quickly invite the prime minister on duty, and summoned other prime ministers and General Shangshu Shilang and other important ministers to come to the palace to discuss matters. Before arriving at the Liangyi Palace, Zheng Xunyu, the prime minister on duty, arrived, obviously having received the news.

Then, the other prime ministers and some of the scholars also arrived in a hurry, and Li Yuxuan and the prime ministers came in. Then Fan Xichao began to tell.

Fan Xichao's narration made Xue Yingzhen, who originally dreamed of taking this opportunity to climb up and squeeze out Ju Wenzhen, from the peak of fantasy to the icy bottom. Because the place of rebellion that Fan Xichao mentioned was the Wannian County Government where his son was imprisoned. The rebels are none other than his family.
