Chapter XXIV
Mu Xiao naturally didn't blame, just looked at Wei Chenglin and asked: "Since Wei Jianjun still has a hidden secret, you might as well say it directly, if it is true, Gu will naturally return justice to you, if it is really as several ministers said, you should know what kind of punishment there will be!" ”
Wei Chenglin naturally knows what the consequences will be, whether the Xiangnan Army was built by the emperor or the prince himself, the significance is extraordinary, he is not afraid of being impeached, but if he shows his hole cards now, he is really a little unbearable.
Seeing that Wei Chenglin looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, Liu Shilang was a little proud, and he was afraid that the other people would steal the limelight, so he hurriedly said: "Wei Jianjun is still young, it is inevitable that he will be unstable, no matter what Fang just said, I hope the emperor will give him a favor!" ”
Wei Chenglin glanced at him with disdain, and said coldly: "The minister is young and ignorant, but he has still learned the law of morality and etiquette, since Lord Qin said that he has seen the woman I brought with him, I don't know if you can remember what it looks like?" ”
Lord Qin looked at him strangely and replied, "Although I have only seen him once, that woman is still a little impressed. ”
"Oh? Then Lord Qin, take a look, is this the person? As he spoke, Wei Chenglin took out a canvas from his sleeve, and the painting showed a stunning woman.
Lord Qin was stunned for a moment, the woman on this painting was indeed what he saw in the barracks, but Wei Chenglin took out the portrait so happily, it was really suspicious, and for a while, he didn't know how to answer.
Lord Liu obviously didn't understand Lord Qin's hesitation, but he was still thinking about it, and couldn't help blurting out, "It's really stunning, no wonder Supervisor Wei's military situation is difficult to control." ”
Wei Chenglin didn't even bother to look at Lord Liu this time, and only asked Lord Qin: "If Lord Qin doesn't remember, it's better to find a few brothers from the Southern Hunan Army to ask, or find General Geng." ”
Lord Qin unconsciously looked at Zuo Xiang, and saw that Zuo Xiang didn't look this way at all, so he gritted his teeth and replied, "It's the person the old man saw." ”
"Lord Qin, can you be sure? Don't regret it later. ”
Hearing that this was a mockery, Lord Qin was also annoyed, the father and son didn't have a good thing, "Of course, although the old man is old, he won't even be able to see a person clearly, let alone such a frivolous woman, naturally he won't be mistaken." ”
"That's good," Wei Chenglin put away the canvas and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, this person is indeed brought into the barracks by the minister, but he is not a woman, he is a man!" ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned, the person on the canvas, with a moth eyebrow, how could it be a man?
Seeing that Wei Chenglin was so determined, Lord Qin was also a little shaken, but he was still unwilling, and said sarcastically: "Is Wei Jianjun looking for us to be happy?" How can such a beautiful woman be said to be a man? Could it be that Wei Jianjun is as good as Longyang? ”
"Lord Qin, you are also old, so disrespectful to the old, what kind of physique have you become?" Although the right minister didn't like Wei Chenglin, and he did look like a woman when he looked at this portrait, he was very angry when he heard Lord Qin humiliate him like this.
"The old man is just telling the truth, what he saw that day was indeed a woman, and now the person in this painting is a little similar, but it is said to be a man, and there are thousands of people in this world, who knows if it is the same person?"
"You old horseman, my son just asked you if you are a person, you said yes, and now you say a little similar, if you bring people and verify your body, should you say that you are old and dizzy?" Seeing that the right phase was such a scoundrel as the left minister, his anger increased a little more, and he forgot that this was in the court, and quarreled directly with Lord Qin.
"The old man didn't say that, he just talked about the matter, and he didn't want the emperor to be deceived!"
"My son doesn't have the courage to bully the king like you!"
"Right Prime Minister, the old man has served the country all his life, although he has done nothing, but it is not something that can humiliate you!"
"How have I humiliated you? Today's incident was also provoked by you, and now my son explains, you are aggressive, it can be seen that you are not really thinking about the emperor, I don't know what my son has done to make you so resentful? I have to put my son to death! ”
"Your Majesty, ......" Lord Qin suddenly knelt down, looked sad, and cried: "The old man has served the country all his life, respects the emperor, this matter is indeed provoked by the old minister, no wonder the right minister suspects, since the right minister can't see the old minister bluntly, today's matter, the old minister will not say more, the power should be the fault of the old minister, the old minister is willing to die to show his loyalty!" ”
After saying that, he slammed into the stone pillar......
The five people impeached this time, except for Lord Qin, the other four people are full of regrets, what Lord Qin said at the beginning was conclusive, and Zuo Xiang also acquiesced, how did he become a man in a blink of an eye? Now that I have completely offended the right minister, I am afraid that the left minister will also dislike a few people for their incompetence, and these four people are all middle-aged, thinking that the future is worrying, how can I not panic in my heart?
Liu Shilang, who was closest to the pillar, was absent-minded as early as when the right minister was arguing with Lord Qin, no matter whether the person was a man or a woman, Wei Chenglin dared to be so calm in the main hall, he must have already thought of a way out, and now the big tree of the left minister did not hold on, and he lost his heart, and he was depressed in his heart, Lord Qin hit it suddenly, and before he could react, Lord Qin had already hit the pillar.
It was not at all what Lord Qin expected to bump into it so hard, and the pain in his forehead really made him gasp a few breaths of cold air, but fortunately, he left some strength, and only a blood mark came out of his forehead.
Several ministers who were close to him hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, and Lord Qin stumbled a little in pain.
Liu Shilang was extremely embarrassed at this time, this Lord Qin must have hated himself, but he couldn't explain it, so he had to quickly support Lord Qin and said, "Why is Lord Qin like this, how can you not understand Lord Qin's hard work?" ”
This can be regarded as maintenance, but Lord Qin doesn't appreciate it, and his forehead still hurts, there are so many pillars in this hall, he singled out Liu Shilang's collision, Liu Shilang actually stood so stupidly, it was really aggrieved.
Wei Chenglin looked at Lord Qin coldly, sure enough, this cheek was practiced, as soon as he took out the canvas, he knew that the situation was not good for him, so he deliberately stimulated the right minister to quarrel with him, and then performed a look of death, now no matter what the truth of the matter is, this Lord Qin will not be punished, who calls people loyal?
Lord Qin made it clear that he wanted face, and the right minister was naturally unhappy, but it was inconvenient for him to say anything, so he had to give Wei Chenglin a look.
Wei Chenglin pretended not to see, just stared at Mu Xiao with a plea in his eyes.
Mu Xiao raised his eyebrows, and said at the right time: "This time, Lord Qin is also thinking about loneliness, your loyalty, remember it alone." ”
"Emperor Xie!" Lord Qin hurriedly knelt down tremblingly and thanked him.
"Your Majesty," the right side saw that the originally favorable situation suddenly changed, and his son didn't help him speak, so he was very angry in his heart, took a step forward, and arched his hand: "Although Wei Chenglin is the supervisor of the southern Hunan army, he is also the son of the minister, Lord Qin sued my son for the crime of adultery, and now my son is wronged, and I hope that the emperor will give my son justice." ”
"Don't be anxious, it's a reward or a punishment, you have a conclusion," Mu Xiao looked at Wei Chenglin and said: "Although Wei Jianjun brought someone into the camp without permission, it is true, the staff is fifty, and the quiet dungeon is ten days, in order to think about repentance, read his dedication to the southern Hunan army, and give special permission to execute it after ten days, although Qin Shangshu dares to speak out, but the facts are biased, read his original intention, only punish him for three months as a warning, Liu Shilang and others wantonly follow the trend to build momentum, the official demoted a product, and the fine is one year, can you have any objections? ”
How dare everyone say anything, they quickly knelt down and thanked them.
