Chapter 174: Approved by the Holy Lord Himself?
Although he was impeaching Kang Longji, what he said was right, but in the end, what he said about the Tobe excerpt and the Baijiang Army, Mingli looked at it as attacking Kang Longji, and insisted that it was Kang Longji who sent the excerpt back, but in fact, he was waiting for the empress to say that sentence in person - the excerpt was approved by the empress herself!
He wanted the empress to say this sentence herself!
His final attack on Kang Longji's words sounded very stupid, so easy to refute, and there was no need to think about it at all.
That's what he wants!
He just wants the empress to refute himself and tell the truth without thinking! And the empress really wants to do this, because she wants to protect Kang Longji! Kang Longji is not a slave to the empress, but a respectable elder and a wise man.
It's an incredibly big pit!
Because, Lu Lian has already blamed Kang Longji for the rebellion of the Baijiang Army, all because Kang Longji brought back the fold...... So once the empress said it herself, she personally approved the fold, although this can relieve Kang Longji, but she will put the basin directly on her head.
There is no doubt that as long as the empress takes this matter in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
Then I'm afraid that it won't be long before the rumor that "the empress doesn't treat the Zhongzhou army well" will circulate in Qianjing City, although the empress can refute it, although she can clearly explain one by one why she doesn't approve the fold, but she can only say it in detail to the ministers, can she say it in so much detail to the people?
No!
Because she can't, as long as the empress admits it, she can't afford to jump into the Yellow River!
Because there will be people who spread rumors, and there will be people who will add fuel to the fire!
The news that the people can get is nothing more than the key points, the Baijiang army camp is in disrepair, the Baijiang army will have no winter clothes to wear, but the empress doesn't care, she doesn't give money, the empress doesn't treat the army well, and the Zhongzhou army defending the country is extremely harsh, regardless of whether they are cold and hungry, so the Baijiang army mutinied and rebelled, they were forced, they didn't want to freeze to death and starve to death!
As soon as such rumors appear, it is no exaggeration to say that this will have a devastating blow to the reputation of the empress!
Because even those famous faint kings and tyrants in history, few dare not treat the army well, the army is the basis for these faint kings and tyrants to be able to reign, and only when they have soldiers in their hands can they dare to have no scruples, without the army, the tyrant cannot be violent!
But this matter, Empress Shenzhao did it!
Just think about it a little and you know how terrible the consequences will be!
And this can also be one of the reasons for Wu Xukuan to force the palace, and his reasons for forcing the palace will be more sufficient and reasonable!
……
The empress almost spoke, and Zhou An called out to the empress.
The stitch drop in the hall was suddenly quiet.
Everyone looked at Zhou An at once, including the empress, she was a little stunned, because Zhou An was quite close to her, Zhou An suddenly shouted, which scared her!
Zhou An was also stunned, his eyes widened.
This matter seems to be easy to solve, just don't let the empress say that she approved it herself, but if the empress doesn't say that she approved it herself, the responsibility is on Kang Longji!
This big hole is simply unsolvable!
Either pit the empress, or pit Kang Longji!
The consequences of pit Kang Longji are naturally extremely serious, because the empress will definitely "shield" Kang Longji, but if she does so, the empress will bear the stigma of "incompetent and mediocre and conniving at eunuchs to gain power"!
This instead responded to the slogan of the Qingjun side of the Baijiang Army!
This will also become one of the reasons why Wu Xukuan forced the empress to abdicate.
The consequences are no lighter than the empress's unkindness to the army, because Wu Xukuan is going to launch an armed rebellion after all, and he needs a name! And whether it is the empress who does not treat the army well, or is mediocre and incompetent and incompetent, she can make Wu Xukuan become "righteous"!
There was silence in the hall for a while.
Many people were stunned, Zhou An suddenly shouted, and he had a bad expression on his face, which made many people confused.
But some people reacted, Zhou An thought of it, he wanted something bad.
A cold light flashed in Wu Xukuan's eyes, and he turned his head to look at Lu Lian.
Lu Lian immediately understood.
"Bold!!" Lu Lian suddenly shouted, pointing at Zhou An and shouting excitedly: "Above the court, how can you be allowed to shout?" You dare to interrupt the words of the Holy Chrysostom, how presumptuous are you? Do you still have a saint in your eyes? Disrespect to the Holy is a capital sin! ”
Lu Lian is very good at buttoning hats.
Zhou An, who was stunned, looked up at Lu Lian and blinked.
"Qiqi Sheng, Zhou An made a noise for no reason, interrupting your golden mouth, this is a great crime of disrespect, and it should be executed!" Lu Lian bowed to the empress again and said quickly, "Weichen and the others are discussing military affairs with the saint, how can they allow this little eunuch to make trouble here?" Weichen thought that Zhou An should be driven out of the temple first, temporarily detained, and after the early dynasty, then sent by the saint. ”
Lu Lian obviously also knew that it was impossible to kill Zhou An by relying on this matter.
So he wanted to drive Zhou An away.
And what he said is reasonable, although the empress can "shield" Zhou An, she also has to consider the consequences, otherwise, the empress will have one more proof to support the eunuchs who indulge in power.
The empress was still a little confused, she didn't even understand, why did Zhou An suddenly scream?
That's not how the script is written!
Before the early dynasty, Zhou An discussed with the empress that there were various situations in the court, how to deal with them, and when Zhou An would open his mouth to scare people, it was also planned.
There's no such shouting in the plan, what kind of skew is this?
The empress was silent first, she didn't think of what to say for a moment.
And at this moment, Kang Longji glanced at Zhou An and gave Zhou An an affirmative look.
He had already thought of it and thought that Zhou An was doing the right thing.
But at this moment, he can't easily open his mouth to relieve Zhou An, it is too easy to be attacked, he is not afraid of being attacked, but the empress will definitely "shield" him, the bigger the problem on him, the bigger the empress's problem.
That's why he can't speak.
can only pin hope on Zhou An's quick wit.
"Xiao Anzi, do you have an explanation?" The empress finally spoke, looked at Zhou An and asked.
Beautifully said!
Zhou An is really afraid that the empress will say the wrong thing, especially that the empress will directly cover herself, it seems that the empress is not so stupid.
The question was thrown at Zhou An.
It's time to show off the real technology!
"Holy Lord, please forgive the slave for being rude just now...... Just now, the rebellious ministers and thieves were full of nonsense, telling right and wrong, intending to deceive the saint, and the slave was also angry and couldn't help himself, so he rashly spoke out and asked the saint for forgiveness. Zhou An said respectfully to the empress.
"Rebels and thieves? Who are you talking about? The empress asked with an ignorant face, as if she really didn't know who Zhou An was talking about.
That's a beautiful answer! Zhou An really wants to kiss the empress on the face, she is so good at cooperating!
"You! Who do you say, eunuch, who are the rebels and thieves? How dare you slander your own officer? Capital crime! Capital crime! ”
Before Zhou An could say who it was, Lu Lian pointed at Zhou An's nose and scolded, and he didn't blame him for being excited, because just now he was talking, and he knew that he was talking about him, and he suddenly opened his mouth, and he also had the intention of preemptively.
"That's what we're talking about!" Zhou An turned his head violently and looked at Lu Lian's rapid speech.
"This officer? You! Are you squirting blood? What evidence do you have that this official is a rebel and a thief? Lu Lian moved forward excitedly.
Zhou An actually walked down from above, and said as he walked: "Evidence, isn't the evidence in front of you?" ”
"Where? Ha! Joke, are you crazy? Such slander against this official ......"
"You also know about slander? And what do you say about slandering the Grand Master? The chief manager is a first-class minister, and he is a county marquis of 3,000 households, you are a little imperial history, slandering the chief administrator, do you know that it is a capital crime?! ”
Both of them spoke at a rapid pace.
Zhou An had already walked down the steps and was about to reach Lu Lian.
"When did this official slander Kang Longji? Is what this official said true? ”
"True? Can you guarantee that everything is true? I think you're slander! ”
"Which sentence of this official is slander? You say it! ”
"Let's ask you, you said that the excerpt of the household department was approved by the general manager, do you have any evidence?"
Zhou An finally walked in front of Lu Lian and stood still, face to face with Lu Lian, almost together, both of them stared at each other.
The hall was quiet again.
Lu Lian seemed to be asked, but he immediately reacted, and said in an extremely high voice: "Who else could it be if it's not Kang Longji?" Could it still be the Holy Lord's own approval? ”
At this moment, everyone looked at Zhou An.
It's quiet again.
This time, it seems that Zhou An was asked.
Zhou An slowly drew a sneer at Lu Lian, and said, "It's our family's approval!" ”
