Chapter 1583: King Chu Compromises
Fang Yun glanced at the four scholars in the palace and the King of Chu.
The four scholars were all important ministers of the king of Chu, but none of them were the prime ministers of the dynasty or the imperial lieutenants, and the heads of the military and political worlds did not come at the first time.
Then, Fang Yun swept over the long screens on both sides of the throne, on which were the mountains and rivers of the Chu State, more than ten zhang long, and finally stared at the King of Chu with a smile.
If Du Ling were here, he would have found this smile very familiar.
"Ben Hou is here, not to talk about his father, but only about three things. First, who injured an innocent person and caused the death of a peasant woman outside Zhucheng on the way to exile? Second, what a big mistake did the dog Zhang Jing'an make, and he was almost beaten to death by someone so that the doctors in Jingzhou were helpless? Third, the gambling agreement between Ben Hou and Gou Bao was originally beneficial to the Two Realms Mountain, and those who helped Gou Bao transfer his property were enemies of me, the Two Realms Mountains, the Holy Courtyard, and the human race!"
A flash of panic flashed in King Chu's eyes, and the faces of the other four scholars remained unchanged.
King Jingjun said loudly: "There are always priorities in things! You are in Jingzhou City, the assassination of the Duke of Ming led to the collapse of the Duke of Ming, and the murder of Gou Bao, a scholar of the Marquis of Qi Mountain, with these two major crimes alone, the King of Chu now has the right to control the power of the temple with the seal of the monarch, suppress you and then take down and punish severely!"
"Oh, you said these two trivial things," Fang Yun said indifferently, "The sword destroying the Ming Guo Mansion is to arrest the murderer who beat the pavilion chief, and let the Ming Guo Gong know that in the future, you must educate your own children well, don't bully others, so as not to cause trouble." As for Gou Bao, I have long wanted to destroy him, and now he is in a state of martial arts, and even a saint can't restore his literary position, which is exactly what I want to see. I just don't understand why it's a great sin for me to punish the wicked."
The king of Jingjun was furious and said angrily: "Tian is shameless, and you are a big bachelor, what authority can you punish a prince of the state and a marquis of Qishan who is equal to you? The laws and holy laws of the country are all there, and you dare to say that you are not guilty?"
"Ben Hou, naturally there is no sin! If you want to add to the crime, why do you have no excuse?"
The King of Chu and the four scholars all looked at Fang Yun like crazy people, and even said that the imposed charges were just crimes, and they were not afraid that there was no reason to refute them, it was simply inexplicable, even Zhang Wankong back then did not dare to speak out like this.
"Where did you get your self-confidence? Do you think that if you are promoted to a university scholar and become a meritorious hero of the Two Realms Mountain, you can do anything wrong? Don't say that it is you, even if Chen Ben, the great Confucian of the Two Realms Mountain, is here, he does not dare to say such things. You ......" King Jingjun was so lucky that he didn't know what to say.
The Marquis of Qingye on the side said in a deep voice: "Zhang Longxiang, you are a person from the Chu State, no matter what grievances you have, you can confide in Your Majesty." Your Majesty has an extraordinary belly, as long as you sincerely admit your mistakes, perhaps Your Majesty will not be guilty of the past. Perhaps, it can make you take the title of Zhang family one step further and become a prince of the country. β
"Never!" the other three scholars hurriedly stopped and looked at King Chu in surprise.
The King of Chu squeezed out a smile and said, "Zhang Aiqing, what the Marquis of Qing Ye said is extremely true. What you and I have done in the past may just be a misunderstanding. is also from the Chu State, rather than deepening the misunderstanding, it is better to resolve it at this moment. This king believes that Zhang Aiqing is a long-term person, not a short-sighted person. β
The other three scholars were stunned, the words of the king of Chu were no longer vague official words, they were almost clearly saying that as long as Zhang Longxiang admitted his mistake first, then the king of Chu would also take a big step back, and the king of Chu would even eliminate the influence of the Zhang family's suspected rebellion, in other words, the king of Chu saw that Fang Yun had a tough attitude and had to take the initiative to compromise, and the Marquis of Qing Ye was obviously building a bridge between the king of Chu and Fang Yun.
The three scholars were silent, and they also knew that Zhang Longxiang's literary name was now in full swing, almost on par with the Void Saint Fang Yun.
A poem "Spring Hope" allows all soldiers and military families to get family letters as quickly as possible, and it has a great effect on stabilizing the morale of the army, and its value is definitely more than three poems of the world.
A "Song of Triumph" and a "Song of Li Guangsong" are to comprehensively enhance the strength of the Terran scholars, especially "Li Guangsong", which has become the strongest bachelor's battle poem, and this poem alone can make every scholar easily fight against a demon king.
However, what really made the King of Chu jealous of Zhang Longxiang was that the Battle of Bishen was the only super-large-scale battle won in the history of the human race, and Zhang Longxiang was undoubtedly the first hero, and if anyone wanted to harm Zhang Longxiang, the Holy Court would inevitably suppress it.
Moreover, this is a frontal battle in the true sense of the word, without the help of any external force, it has great significance to the human race, and even Fang Xusheng does not have this kind of combat feats.
Zhang Longxiang carried the momentum of the Two Realms Mountain, and the King of Chu had to bow his head.
Everyone looked at Fang Yun together, wondering about his reply.
Fang Yun nodded lightly and said, "Yes, I arrived at the palace in my busy schedule to resolve this matter, not to let it continue to spread." β
Several scholars glared at Fang Yun, and the Marquis of Zhujiang actually said in front of the King of Chu that he had come here in his busy schedule, where was this to meet the king, and it was more like he had come to inspect his subordinates.
"So, what does Zhang Aiqing have to say?" King Chu was relieved, and there was a hint of true sincerity in his smile.
Fang Yundao: "First hand over the people who hurt the peasant women, the people who hurt my son, and the people who colluded with Gou Bao to transfer the family property, and the punishment will be corrected and announced to the world!"
The King of Chu and the four scholars sank their faces again, and there was not much difference between these words and the previous ones.
The Marquis of Qing Ye nodded and said, "As far as I know, that peasant woman died by accident. However, in the final analysis, it is the fault of the new prefect of Zhucheng that should be severely punished! And the new prefect is also a protΓ©gΓ© of the official department of the court, so I think Yan Shangshu will tell the old man and return to his hometown. β
The other three scholars frowned, and the Marquis of Qingye easily cut off the future of a Hanlin and a Jinshi, and these two people were precisely the backbone of the King of Chu in the court, and forcing Yan Shangshu to be a scholar was equivalent to the King of Chu cutting flesh on himself.
The hall was silent, and only the cold wind could be faintly heard in the distance.
After a long time, the King of Chu gritted his teeth and said, "The Marquis of Qingye is reasonable. β
The four scholars breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that the two sides had a basis for negotiation and things were moving in a good direction.
The Marquis of Qingye continued: "Zhang Jing'an was seriously injured and almost wanted to die, which was the joint action of the Marquis of Qishan and the Marquis of Lumen. These two marquis mansions have repeatedly persecuted Zhang Mingzhou, and even endangered the Two Realms Mountain, in the opinion of the old ministers, they should be demoted!"
Hearing the last four words, the other three scholars hurriedly said, "Never!"
The first generation of the Marquis of Qishan and the Marquis of Lumen made great contributions to the Chu State, and they were all famous historical figures in the whole text, and the former King of Chu promised them hereditary replacement, which was the promise of the Chu royal family, and in the absence of treason or rebellion, the later generations of the King of Chu were not allowed to abolish the title.
Although it is now a downgrade, there is not much difference between it and the abolished lord, because there is no hereditary replacement, and after being demoted to Qishan Bo and Lumen Bo, after three generations of inheritance between the two families, it will be lowered again, and finally until the titles of these two families disappear completely.
If you are not careful, the abolition or demotion of the lord will shake the foundation of the Chu State, and the former Yan State has caused a big mess because of the abolition of the lord, and the Qin State took the opportunity to forcibly seize a large area of land.
"What the Marquis of Qing Ye said is very true. The King of Chu spoke almost word by word, staring at Fang Yun.
