Chapter 149: Marriage

Tang Xuanlin looked at all this coldly, and didn't say a word the whole time, but several adults on the side looked at each other, all of them looking incredulous.

Bu Tong finally felt that something was wrong, because of something.

His Majesty was relaxed and unworried before, and if he said inexplicably, Bu Tong raised his eyes and looked at his eyes that were suddenly cold now, and suddenly had a very absurd guess, but he didn't know how to verify it.

……

The sun outside has quietly risen, shining on the land after the heavy rain, volatilizing the unique smell of wetness, the palace people carry buckets after the soldiers moved those corpses and sprinkle white marble, but the people in the hall have their own hearts, Bu Tong is carefully combing through the various things that have been going on, His Majesty suddenly turned his head to see,

"Tong'er, I arranged for someone to buy buckets and clean palace clothes in the front hall, you go wash up and leave the palace later."

There's nothing wrong with that, but why do you want to go to the side hall?

Although Bu Tong was puzzled, he only lowered his body and thanked him.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your compassion, and the courtiers thank the emperor for his kindness."

His Majesty took a deep breath and got up, "Sheng'er, go and get the golden crown of your father's court clothes, today's court, civil and military officials, and the people of the world, are all waiting for an explanation." ”

Mu Hesheng bowed his head, and everyone behind him saluted in unison, "Yes." ”

His Majesty has been sick for a long time, and today suddenly opened the court, last night's catastrophe, has already spread throughout the city of Kyoto, Bu Tong took a hot bath in the side hall, re-bandaged the wound and put on a clean palace dress, only to feel that the idle head is "buzzing".

A palace person entered the door, facing Butong through the screen and curtains, "County Lord Niangniang, have you put it in order?" ”

Butong walked out,

"My lord, what do you command?"

The person who came was the husband Ming Zhen who had been waiting at His Majesty's side, Bu Tong remembered that he was the most loyal in this palace, and then Mu Hesheng took the throne, he committed suicide alone in Huangling, but he was the closest person to His Majesty, Ming Zhen is the old man in the palace, the hair under the hat is mottled and white, and his face is soft when he hears this, "The title of the county lord is tormenting the slave, Your Majesty ordered, if the county lord finishes washing, let the old slave lead the county lord to the palace to listen, and it can be regarded as giving the county lord an explanation for suffering this serious injury." ”

Bu Tong had a momentary doubt,

"My lord, is this unruly? After all, Bu Tong is a woman, and she is also a person in the harem, how can she go to the court to listen to the affairs of the previous dynasty? Besides, yesterday's incident, I am afraid that there are many misunderstandings, and the courtiers dare not complain about His Royal Highness. ”

Mingzhen looked at Butong's shoulders that were obviously not the same height because he was wrapped in bandages, "The county lord was seriously injured by the Third Highness, and His Majesty also feels deeply indebted, so the county lord should not refrain from going in." ”

In this way, Bu Tong was no longer polite, and after Ming Zhen went to a big screen behind His Majesty in the front hall, Ming Zhen brought a chair to Bu Tong, made a "shhhh

Bu Tong simply looked around in this small room, behind him is the Jinluan high platform where His Majesty sits, and the palace maids on the side are playing rain fans and plaques, blocking it tightly, Bu Tong feels novel, close to the foot of the golden seat, but can barely see the hundred officials who are pressed below, and secretly sighs that it is really necessary to be an emperor to have a very strong aura to be able to suppress it, if not, he will be embarrassed for a while when he speaks in a department, and he is afraid that he will be so nervous that he can't say half a sentence when he sits on it.

The voices below were heard very clearly, and one of the ministers said angrily,

“…… Your Majesty must not take into account the relationship between father and son in this matter, since he is the prince, then he is first His Majesty's courtier, and then His Majesty's son, and the prince is still guilty of the same crime as the people, you are the prince, and the crime of knowing the law and breaking the law should be added to the first! ”

Bu Tong heard that it was not Zuo Chong's voice, and he was really bold.

The following immediately echoed,

"What Lord Zuo said is that the people's anger is extremely high now, and if the court does not have a statement and disposal, it will have too much impact on the reputation of the royal family."

"Your Majesty, such a rebellion and an attack on the imperial city must be severely punished, if not, how can the people set an example!"

"Your Majesty must be punished heavily, otherwise you will be raised high and put down gently, I am afraid that there will be wolf ambitions who will also follow and do such a great rebellion."

……

Listening carefully, no one spoke for Mu Hewen, Mu Hequan was condemned at the beginning, and there were still a few voices in the court to defend him, Bu Tong couldn't help but sigh, they all said that this person is self-aware, Mu Hewen is so powerful in the court, he dares to rebel bistfully, it is really bold and strange.

Bu Tong was thinking about it, and suddenly heard a strong and powerful familiar voice, as soon as Lie Zhanhu spoke, the voice below was really quieter, "Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness has done such an unforgivable sin, but I still ask Your Majesty to look at his prince's body, he has been on the border for more than ten years, and he has no merit and hard work. ”

Bu Tong nodded secretly, this side is for the country, although Bu Tong really hates Mu He and hates Mu Hewen so much that the root of his teeth itches, but now that the war is imminent, if the court and the central government deal with or even execute the prince one after another, it will undoubtedly make matters worse.

His Majesty's voice was a little lacking, but it was still able to suppress the civil and military officials, and as soon as he spoke, the audience was silent, "I have no way to teach my son, so I let that evil obstacle outside do such a big rebellious thing, and I am sitting here today to announce two things." ”

There was silence below, and Bu Tong also pricked up his ears and listened carefully to what to do with Mu Hewen, His Majesty sighed,

"First, the third son of the emperor, Mu Hewen, was rebellious and intended to rebel, which made me extremely disappointed, stripped of his royal identity, and tattooed his cheeks to send the northwest army, and he had no will in this life to leave the land of development and matching!"

"Second, I am very poor now, I am afraid that the time will not be long, the fourth son of the emperor, Mu Hesheng, is diligent and respectful, intelligent and loves the people, and is specially appointed as the prince, these two wills will be issued by the officials later."

Everyone said, "Your Majesty is wise." ”

The rebel son is matched, and the virtuous person is on the throne, which seems to be the finale of the story, Bu Tong suddenly heard his father speak,

"Obey. Your Majesty, the old minister has something to ask your Majesty. ”

His Majesty didn't seem to want to listen any further, "That's it, I'll leave the rest to the prince, and I'll go back to recuperate." ”

Bu Tingyun chased after him, "Your Majesty, what the old minister played is related to my family's rebel son Bu Yiyang, he listened to the slander and suggested to His Majesty to redivide the military power, which contributed to the progress of this matter, and asked His Majesty to deal with the rebel." ”

Bu Tong hurriedly stepped on his feet to look outside, and sure enough, on the ground not far away, two familiar figures knelt under him, and Bu Yiyang spoke, "Your Majesty is incompetent, and he has been blinded into making three halls...... The accomplice of the culprit also asks His Majesty to punish him heavily. ”

Bu Tong's heart was pinched up instantly, but he heard His Majesty take the opportunity to say, "That's it, last night I also saw Yi Yang bring people to the rescue, regardless of life and death to kill the enemy, if there is no such thing, he will definitely be crowned a mighty general, so the merits will be offended, Nanguo Gong should not be so cautious, the children are young, and they need more experience." ”

Bu Tingyun didn't dare to relax in the slightest, and continued to say cautiously, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely be punished heavily when you go back, and your Majesty's courtiers don't dare to slack off, the weight of state affairs is more important than life." ”

Bu Tong just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it in the back, and then he was lifted up again, and Bai Ye immediately said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty also has a play." ”

His Majesty couldn't hold it anymore at all, and his tone was even more helpless, "Does the Duke of the Northern Kingdom also have to ask for guilt?" ”

Butong's heart jumped to his throat,

"But you can't say it, the exit is to think that you are participating in the rebellion!"

Bai Ye's situation is different from Bu Yiyang's, if it is said that Bu Yiyang was forced to do something wrong, then Bai Ye is knowingly committing a crime, knowing that Mu Hewen wants to rebel but helping many times, if he says it now, I am afraid that he will be implicated.

Bai Ye was even more astonishing, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is old, and you are really overwhelmed, and you want to take advantage of Your Majesty's court today to ask for your resignation, and only one of Your Majesty's daughters has already been married, and I also ask Your Majesty to allow your ministers to continue to live in Kyoto City, accompany your daughter and unborn nephew, and enjoy your old age." ”

There was an uproar everywhere, and His Majesty sighed heavily, "The Duke of Beiguo has been tired of military achievements for most of his life, and he should be courteous, this is natural." ”

This was agreed, and he happily let Bu Tong be puzzled.

However, it is not a bad thing to resign and hand over power, and if you protect yourself, you can get a good ending, and Your Majesty will naturally not send him down again.

His Majesty continued to speak, "Those who have made great contributions in this battle will be rewarded, Xuanlin, yesterday to escort your first merit, what reward do you want?" ”

Bu Tong's mind suddenly swirled around Mu Hewen's last words,

"Lord Tang, it's useless to be beautiful for a while, now that the East Factory is powerful, and the world's talents are collected, how can our Majesty rest assured, look at the Liu family, there are still a few people who remember that martyr? In today's battle, Dongchang's combat power is amazing, although it is a meritorious service, but don't become the next Liu family. ”

It can be seen that the master of high merit is wrong, Dongchang has only been established for one year, but such a combat power is amazing, enough to resist 50,000 soldiers and horses and a tiger general who has fought on the battlefield for more than ten years, such an organization is the sword in the hands of the emperor in troubled times, and in the event of peace, it is the night buzz in the ears of the incumbent.

Tang Xuanlin has not spoken, and he can only reply if he is named,

"Thank Your Majesty for your grace, it is the duty of Dongchang to protect Your Majesty's safety, and your subordinates dare not speak of rewards."

His Majesty suddenly spoke again in astonishment,

"I trust you the most, and I hope that Xuanlin will never be provoked, and can always be my right-hand man, in order to show my reward and trust, I want to give you a marriage."

Bu Tong only felt that his heartbeat was magnified several times in an instant, and his whole body was full of uneasiness, if His Majesty pointed out the marriage, I was afraid that Tang Xuanlin would not be able to refuse.

His Majesty regained some of his loving tone, "I have a daughter under me, who is just the right age, although she is naughty on weekdays, she is also gentle and kind, and she will definitely be able to harmonize with Xuanlin Qinse, love and harmony." ”

Five thunderbolts!

Bu Tong's feeling is like a cabbage that he has cultivated with all his heart, and when it is about to be harvested, he was rooted away by the emperor Lao'er who was walking by.

"That's mine! My people! Bu Tong gritted his teeth and stared at His Majesty's position, only to hear Tang Xuanlin's unhurried voice,

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but Your Majesty, I don't want to."
