Chapter Forty-Nine: The Changing of Appearances
The house was quiet.
Three years ago, the scene of the Holy Emperor ascending the throne and bloodbathing the Golden Light Temple seemed to be reappearing in front of his eyes.
If Li Youquan questioned Ye Nanfeng in court, the ministers still had some doubts about Ye Nanfeng in their hearts.
But when Jia Dongfeng rushed in with a storm and thunder, Fu Huanqing assassinated Ye Nanfeng in court, and Ye Nanfeng shouted out that sentence before he died, they couldn't help but believe Ye Nanfeng's words again.
Looking at Jia Dongfeng's gaze, it was like looking at the Holy Emperor back then, a little more fearful.
Jia Dongfeng turned a deaf ear to Ye Nanfeng's last vicious words, and just stepped up to the position where Ye Nanfeng's blood was still sprinkled with it, and every step seemed to be wrapped in the power of thunder, and at the end, he kicked Ye Nanfeng's corpse, sneered, and sat down on the dragon chair with his sleeves: "What objections do you have?" β
Fu Huanqing stood behind her, her eyes were like the most chilling cold wind in winter, slowly sweeping the faces of everyone in the Golden Light Palace, and on the windward sword, the blood beads belonging to Ye Nanfeng still slowly dripped down the jade steps along the sword trough.
Rao is Zheng Youwei, and he couldn't help lowering his eyes. Ye Nanfeng is dead, Ye Xifeng is an indisputable character, the military talisman and military power of the Great Zhou are in the hands of the Fu family, who dares to touch Jia Dongfeng's tiger whiskers now?
"Long live my emperor, long live it!" There are always people whose brains are spinning fast, making the right choice at the most critical time, Fu Huanqing, who controls the military power, is clearly wearing a pair of pants with Jia Dongfeng, what else can he do besides being good.
With this first kneeling, all the people in the Golden Light Hall immediately knelt down: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" β
Thanks to the Holy Emperor, her thunderous methods have made this group of fierce old ministers lose the courage of Zhen Xiang to touch the pillar back then.
Standing in the hall, only Zheng Youwei and Zhen Liancheng remained.
Zheng Youwei looked directly at Jia Dongfeng, no longer with a warm and modest face, and coldly spit out four words from his mouth: "Chicken Si Chen!" β
Jia Dongfeng looked back at the past indifferently: "Zheng Xiang is annoyed and ashamed, Zhen Xiang died five years ago, and Zheng Xiang took a step forward; If I die today, where will Zheng Xiang go? This sentence is very straightforward, if Ye Nanfeng succeeds in his rebellion, he is just a faint monarch who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and in the end, Zheng Youwei is in power, which is no different from stealing the country and plotting to usurp.
"Your Majesty's heart-wrenching words, do you have any evidence?" Zheng Youwei's eyes were like torches, and he looked at Jia Dongfeng confidently. It is true that he turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands for rain, and it was good to lose his success and defeat, but he was very sure that Jia Dongfeng would not have any evidence. If you win, none of the evidence will be evidence. If you lose, the evidence will dissipate with the death of the witness.
That's why he's always invincible.
Moreover, he is conscientious, all in order to maintain the inheritance tradition of the Tang Dynasty, Jia Zhou usurped the Tang Dynasty, women messed up the government, he worked step by step, set things right, even if he succeeded, but what was wrong?
"No," Jia Dongfeng sneered neatly, "But Zheng Youwei, from today onwards, you will no longer be the prime minister of my Great Zhou, and I have ordered you to think about it behind closed doors in the claustrophobic mansion, and you must not see anyone." Otherwise...... Beware of your ten tribes. β
This is not only for Zheng Youwei, but also for the ministers.
What are the Nine Clans? Whoever dares to associate with Zheng Youwei, who is good at demagoguery, even if his relatives and friends are also punished. In this way, it should be managed, right?
"There is no precedent for the impeachment of the prime minister without guilt." Zheng Youwei smiled, "Why did Your Majesty drive me out of the court?" And on what basis shall I destroy my ten tribes? β
"Zhu Yan's rhetoric is the most important thing in the world. Zheng Xiang, maybe you were dashing when you were young, but now you are old and ugly, and you are standing so close to me, looking at you every day, affecting my mood in the court. As for the Ten Clansβ" Jia Dongfeng said cynically and casually, while slowly standing up from the dragon chair, walking in front of Zheng Youwei step by step, and whispering, "Just rely on the king to call the minister to die, and the minister has to die." β
Zheng Youwei was slightly stunned, if Jia Dongfeng was cold if the Holy Emperor was cold, he was afraid that if he said anything again, the situation would no longer be controllable.
There is a way to stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, and after a moment of silence, he knelt down and said: "Minister, obey the order." Immediately, without waiting for Jia Dongfeng's permission, he stood up and walked quickly outside the hall.
Looking at Zheng Youwei's somewhat lonely back, Jia Dongfeng glanced at Zhen Liancheng who was standing next to the imperial case, pulled the corners of his lips, and added idly: "Starting today, Zhen Liancheng will succeed him as prime minister and give glory to Huafu." Zheng Xiang, thank you for cultivating a good talent for me. β
Zheng Youwei's figure shook, but a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, Jia Dongfeng wanted to use this to separate Zhen Liancheng and himself? As everyone knows, he has never trusted Zhen Liancheng. That's fine, Jia Dongfeng used Zhen Liancheng, but he also suspected him of guarding against him, and the monarch and ministers had a gap, so he could add fuel to the fire: "Do you think that by killing the eldest prince and forcing me away, you can govern the Qing people and Qiankun Langlang?" As long as you want to use people, you will inevitably be traitorous and disruptive ministers, and you can't control it, not to mention that you don't have a harem, and you don't have any reliance and constraints...... "Such a random bite is enough to reflect his annoyance and anger, right? Next, it depends on the dispute between Zhen Liancheng and Jia Dongfeng.
Maybe its own era has really come to an end.
I hope that Zhen Liancheng will never know the truth, destroy the female emperor dynasty with hatred, and fulfill his attempted wish.
Guanghua Mansion is the old residence of the century-old family of Zhen Mansion and the most cherished ancestral property of the family...... Jia Dongfeng is really benevolent to himself.
Zhen Liancheng glanced at Jia Dongfeng with a complicated expression, she didn't know that she had eliminated Ye Nanfeng's killing, but she didn't need to correct her name, no evidence, or even her loyalty. What he wanted to restore the glory of the family, as well as the ancestral property of the Zhen family, she gave it to him with just a few words.
But she didn't know that she already knew the truth back then.
He opened his mouth.
Say sorry, it's too late.
To say forgiveness, he doesn't have that qualification.
said that he knew the truth, but this was no longer important to Jia Dongfeng.
"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen." A thousand words came to his lips, but Zhen Liancheng couldn't say anything, just brushed the hem of his white clothes and knelt down in front of Jia Dongfeng sincerely.
"Zhen Xiangping," Jia Dongfeng's smile was polite and detached, "The Holy Emperor died, and the mountains and rivers mourned." Prime Minister Zhen, please assist the six departments, and make sure to make the funeral of the Holy Emperor unlimited. β
"What about His Majesty's enthronement ceremony?" Zhen Liancheng bowed down and asked.
"You can do it!" Jia Dongfeng was silent for a long time, and slowly raised his hand to hold the celadon teacup on the imperial case. The teacup depicts the rivers and mountains of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is the favorite thing of the Holy Emperor during his lifetime. Now that the Holy Emperor has passed away and Ye Nanfeng is also dead, she will carry the infamy of killing her mother and brother, and she has not been able to clear her reputation as the Holy Emperor wishes.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go to the Lichen Palace to have a look?" Fu Huanqing reminded.
Jia Dongfeng suddenly raised her eyes, her heart stopped beating, she didn't have time to grieve, according to Ye Nanfeng's temperament, how could she give anyone who might threaten his position a chance to die?
