Chapter 688: The Imperial Palace
"Thank you." A smile also overflowed on Nan Xuanye's lips, and after all, a thousand words only turned into a thank you, he wanted to thank this woman for her intelligence, kindness, bravery, and unwavering commitment to herself.
"Thank me for what? I am also a member of the Huainan Royal Mansion, which can be described as a glory, but ...... Recently, the Huainan Royal Mansion is still trying to keep a low profile, I am afraid that above the court, there will be political enemies attacking and destroying us. Qin Miaomiao's words were very accurate, and the next day, in the early court, someone really fell into the well, participated in the king of Huainan, and framed Nan Xuanye.
There was silence above the court, and the needle could be heard, and I saw the emperor on the high platform resting on the nine-fold crown, looking at the officials above the court, and said for a long time: "Nan Xuanye, the prince of Huainan, do you have something to refute." ”
"The Holy Ministers did not do anything to be sorry for the court or the people. Even now, I am willing to let Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Second Department thoroughly investigate whether the minister has the heart of disobedience. The heart of the minister is clear and absolutely loyal to our dynasty and His Majesty. ”
The emperor has also heard of the dissenting things about the King of Huainan who has been boiling in recent days, and he has also remembered it in his heart, and you must know that for the heart of disobedience, even with Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, it is impossible to find out thoroughly, and if the King of Huainan is really like a rumor, he is good at raising 5,000 iron-blooded dead soldiers and 100,000 private soldiers, then how can the prince of Huainan kneel here? I'm afraid he should have sat in his position a long time ago, although he understood these truths, but the saint who was on the throne was silent.
No one spoke in the courtroom, and the silence just now was restored.
And the person who broke this silence was none other than the prime minister.
"Holy Lord, don't be fooled by the rhetoric of these people with evil intentions!"
"Oh? Prime Minister, what are you talking about, Nan Xuanye is a ghost? ”
"Nope! The minister is talking about the person who falsely accuses the person who participates in the book! Fang Xun said word by word: "Are the 100,000 private soldiers heavenly soldiers, or are they sprinkling beans into soldiers, and they can be hidden in our dynasty for a few years without being discovered by anyone?" And now the people who found it, why can't they say where these private soldiers are located, this is definitely a frame-up! ”
Nan Xuan was a little surprised when he saw Fang Xun speaking for himself at night, knowing that Fang Xun must be speaking for his own daughter, Qin Miaomiao, but at the same time, the person who is taboo in the saint is not only the king of Huainan, but even more than the king of Huainan is him, the prime minister Fang Xun, so it's okay if Fang Xun doesn't intercede, if he intercedes, it will make the saint more suspicious, of course, but at the same time, it will be more taboo.
The saint was puzzled in his heart, originally thought that Fang Xun and the power of the King of Huainan were not in the same situation, and he didn't know what he was thinking at this moment, but what was certain was that, as Qin Miaomiao said in his analysis, in a short period of time, it was impossible to shake the foundation of the Huainan Palace, so he could only do nothing, or do it from the officials under the power of the Huainan Palace.
However, whether the king of Huainan has the heart of disobedience is still two words. If the power of the Huainan Royal Mansion is weakened, I am afraid that the factions above the court will be unbalanced again and will not be restricted, and there will be too many people to shuffle the cards when the time comes, and the emperor on the throne is already old and can't withstand such a toss.
So he was just tired and didn't draw any conclusions: "Retreat." Then he got up and left, and the little eunuch behind him sharpened his voice: "Retreat!" ”
This scene in the court has just come to an end.
After retiring from the court, although he was not punished in any way, Nan Xuanye was still a little frightened, and when he returned to the Huainan Palace, he told the story of today's affairs in the court.
When Qin Miaomiao heard that Fang Xun was speaking for Nan Xuanye, her eyebrows tightened: "Is it him?" What does he want to do? ”
"So I think that tomorrow someone will go to the concert to find the prime minister." Nan Xuanye shook his head: "What he is doing now is to put the danger of being set on fire to himself...... Just to protect our Huainan Palace, of course, I think the person he wants to protect the most is you. ”
Hearing this, Qin Miaomiao was silent, how could she not understand the danger of doing so? But did Fang Xun think that if he did this, Qin Miaomiao would be soft-hearted and forgive him and call him Dad? She still couldn't forgive.
After all, what he did not only hurt himself, but also hurt the two most important people in his life, one is his mother and the other is his husband.
And as Nan Xuanye said, the next morning, he was replaced by Fang Xun and Fang Cheng.
I saw Lord Shangshu holding aloft the chapter and kneeling in the court: "The minister has the book to play, participate in Fang Xun, Fang Cheng, the crime of corruption and bribery, and forming a party for personal gain!" ”
All the officials were shocked by Lord Shangshu's sentence, and now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty do not know that the prime minister is now under one person and above ten thousand. But Master Shangshu's sudden words surprised everyone.
The emperor did not say more about this sentence in the court, but planned to make a decision after going back.
Fang Xun was eating dinner when he received an urgent call from the Holy One.
The situation that went first was extremely unfavorable to Fang Xun, and he himself had a premonition that he might not be able to come back again, so he knelt on the ground to receive the will, and after getting up, he asked more: "I don't know, can I allow Bencheng to finish dinner?" ”
The eunuch who came to herald the order smiled and didn't smile: "I think the prime minister, I don't know the priorities, the meal is small, long live the lord summoned you to enter the palace quickly, but it's big." ”
"Alas......" Fang Xun sighed, "I'm afraid ......"
"I'm afraid of what Prime Minister Fang?" The herald eunuch was not accommodating at all.
Fang Xun shook his head, "It's nothing, I just think it's a pity to waste dinner......"
"Huh? Prime Minister Fang Cheng is in the phase, which can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person! I must have eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and I have eaten one less meal...... What's the shame of such a dinner? The herald eunuch glanced at the unsumptuous home-cooked food on the table with contempt.
Fang Xun straightened his clothes: "Since the Holy Lord is urgently called, it is inconvenient for me to delay, so I changed into court clothes and went with my father-in-law." ”
"No need, there is a will of the Holy Father, everything is simple."
Fang Xun closed his eyes when he heard this, and took a deep breath, "Then there is Father-in-law Lao." ”
On the other hand, the Huainan Palace, which had been closely following Fang Xun's movements, had obviously received accurate news - the Holy Lord had summoned Fang Xun urgently, and he didn't even have time to change his clothes and change into court clothes.
After Nan Xuanye received the information sent by the spies he had bribed, he kept frowning.
It's not good, it's very bad. It's just that although Fang Xun's current situation is sooner or later, it is because of the shelter of the Huainan Palace, and the shelter of himself will set himself on fire in advance, to say, let Nan Xuan watch the fire from the other side at night, I'm afraid it is still a little difficult.
But even if you don't watch the fire from the other side, the Huainan Wangfu is also a thorn in the eye of the saint, I'm afraid that if you put out the fire, not only will the fire not be broken, but it will even burn yourself, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Nan Xuanye felt that since Fang Xun was Qin Miaomiao's biological father, then she should have the right to know the ins and outs of this matter.
Although Nan Xuanye felt that if he knew everything, but didn't tell Qin Miaomiao anything, then Qin Miaomiao shouldn't say anything on the surface, or would not admit that Fang Xun was her father, and would keep saying that he would hurt himself, her mother, and her husband.
But human nature is reasonable, and it is necessary for Nan Xuanye to inform her.
And Nan Xuanye also has a thought, that is, to know what her attitude towards Fang Xun is? Is it really as ingrained as a rock on the surface?
After thinking for a while, Nan Xuanye came to Qin Miaomiao's room.
On the other side, in the palace, the saint reviewed the recital in the imperial study, and Fang Xun knelt down in front of the case, and the emperor only heard that Fang Xun was coming, but only concentrated on reading the recital with a red pen.
And Fang Xun knew that he was in a catastrophe, and his face was not very good, so he just lowered his head and pretended not to know about the saint's deliberate difficulty.
Two hours later, the saint raised his head and looked at Fang Xun, his eyes were like torches: "Fang Xun, are you guilty?" ”
Fang Xun felt that his knees were a little numb, and his tongue seemed to be a little unfavorable, and his arguments in the past were no hinder, but now he didn't show any of them, "Minister, I don't know what crime the minister has committed as the Holy Lord." ”
