Chapter 455: Asking for Guilt
There is more than one meaning in these words, although he is old, he is not confused, and he can understand that Xia Ruosheng is referring to him.
"What can I mean? Xiao Lao Mo was in a hurry. ”
Xia Ruosheng laughed, the entire court was filled with Xia Ruosheng's laughter, but no one said a word for Xiao Yongde and them.
As soon as Xiao Yongde received the carrier pigeon of the Emperor of Chu, he immediately took a shortcut over the mountains and mountains to rush back, and just returned to Beijing this morning to face the saint directly, he is now hungry, sloppy clothes have not changed to face the saint.
His group of brothers were also hungry and waiting outside, those people experienced life and death, and took back their lives from the hands of Lord Yama, but they could not escape starvation, death of disease, and finally returned to Beijing with more than 1,000 people.
"The matter of human life, even if there are more than 300 people, Yan Guo also attaches great importance to it, which shows that Emperor Yan is sympathetic to the people's feelings, if he ignores the people, what will he think? Water can carry a boat and can also overturn the boat, this time Emperor Yan sent Prime Minister Gao to capture the head of the earth house Adaweir, if those people see it, they will only love Emperor Yan more, isn't this deal cost-effective? ”
Chu Yu'er, a warm voice sounded, and Xia Ruosheng was crushed to death by his words.
"Haha, it's reasonable, the fourth prince is about to become the son-in-law of the Xiao family, and he even speaks to the Xiao family."
The other minister continued, as if to give everyone a wake-up call.
The phoenix's eyes narrowed slightly, and the light in his eyes was put away.
Xiao Yongjue glanced at Chu Yu curiously, and when he returned to Beijing, he also heard others say that Emperor Chu had married Xiao Changge to this waste prince, and he also heard what happened at the banquet of the prince's selection of concubines, but he didn't think that a demon girl would have such ability, this demon art is amazing.
Sooner or later, God will take this demon girl!
He was surprised that he didn't ask about the world when he saw Chu Yu before, but today he stood up for his father.
"What's wrong with a son-in-law speaking for his father-in-law, how much more is this king wrong? Or does Master Su have nothing to say? ”
Chu Yu didn't hide it, and generously admitted it.
Su Cheng and Xia Ruosheng looked at each other.
Chu Mo's body moved when he heard Chu Yu's words, and he looked up at Chu Yu's beautiful side face.
He was so shameless to say such things in the court.
He is shameless, Xiao Changge still has face.
"As a Chu person, the prince boasted of Emperor Yan, which inevitably made others more ambitious and destroyed his prestige."
"Oh? His Majesty once said that he made use of his strengths and avoided his weaknesses, and since Yan Guo has done a good job in this regard, it has not only conformed to the will of the people but also increased its prestige, shouldn't we learn? Master Su, I see that you have not taken what Your Majesty said to heart. ”
Chu Yu said with a smile, and these words threw the problem to Su Cheng.
"Fourth, when did you become able to speak well, you are not wrong, it is so reasonable."
Emperor Chu, who listened to the two of them but did not stop him, spoke at this time, Emperor Chu spoke, who would dare to quarrel? 、
"The son thanked his father for his praise."
Chu Yu said with a thick face, although his voice was small, it made the people around him hear it clearly.
It used to be waste wood, but now it's really unbelievable.
"Emperor Qi, the minister thinks that General Xiao not only exterminated the Tuwu people in one fell swoop, but also found out that Li Zhenshou committed treason and annihilated the fugitives left by the Zhou family, and should be rewarded."
Chen Ye, who had been watching from the sidelines, stood up at this moment, Xia Ruosheng snorted, a little sneering.
Chen Ye, although he is honest on the outside, is the second Xiao Yongde, but in his opinion, he is just a fake.
To put it bluntly, he is a dog's leg, and he stutters when he sees the reversal of form, what is the difference between this and him? And how much better than him?
His hand tapped on the armrest of the dragon chair, as if he was troubled.
Chen Ye took the lead, and those who were originally from the left prime minister's party also echoed it.
Xiao Yongde was covered in a cold sweat, he could feel the chill behind his back, as if he was wandering outside in a thin shirt in winter, goosebumps rose all over his body, and even the pores on his nose were shrinking.
Fear.
He was afraid of being an official, and he was even more afraid that Emperor Chu would be jealous.
But he can't hand over the 200,000 troops in his hand, at least not to the current Chu Emperor.
"Prime Minister Zuo is right, General Xiao has made a great contribution this time and deserves to be rewarded, but now he is talking about another matter, is it really a coincidence that Gao Yuan appeared? What is the secret letter I received? Little Haizi! ”
Emperor Chu clapped his hand, and the lower person shrank his neck, and even his heart trembled.
Pang Hai was shouted like this, his sharp voice was raised, he chirped, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and walked to Xiao Yongde with his head in both hands.
Xiao Yongde took the paper and opened it.
He looked frightened, and his hand holding the paper trembled.
"Your Majesty, this is impossible! How could the minister collude with Yan Guo! ”
Xiao Yongde slammed, and his head slammed to the ground.
The sound was so loud that all the ministers frowned.
Chu Yu twisted his eyebrows and squinted.
Pang Hai took the paper in Xiao Yongde's hand and strode towards Emperor Chu's side.
Xiao Yongjue didn't know what was written on the paper, but he could guess it by listening to Xiao Yongde's tone.
"Xiao Aiqing naturally believes it, but what is said in this letter is reasonable, and it is difficult for me not to believe it."
Emperor Chu hissed, Xiao Yongde's heart was half cold, and he thought of what Xiao Changge said before.
"Xiao Haizi, tell everyone about this belief."
"Wow."
"Last year, when Yan paid tribute, Prime Minister Gao Cheng and General Xiao met at the inn, and then talked for an hour, Prime Minister Gao left, in the same year, Prime Minister Gao visited Chu State, General Xiao and Prime Minister Gao talked about wine, in late May this year, when Yan State and Chu State made peace, Prime Minister Gao Cheng and General Xiao met again in private, Prime Minister Gao returned to Yan, and the Tuwu people began to relocate, all the way to Chu."
The sharp voice read word by word, although it sounded harsh, but Pang Hai had already forgotten the harsh sound.
What was said in this letter was all about the time when Xiao Yongde and Gao Yuan met, including where he went and how many hours of the meeting were clearly stated, so it was impossible to fabricate or say anything.
If he hadn't stared at Xiao Yongde earlier, how could he know such details.
"Yo, I thought that my relationship with Prime Minister Gao was good enough, but I didn't think that Xiao Lao was better with Prime Minister Gao Cheng, and there were people from Tuwu, but when Gao Yuan left Chu State, he came all the way to Chu, could it be a coincidence?"
Xia Ruosheng's eyes lit up, wiped his mustache and said.
Since Emperor Chu ordered Xia Ruoyun to be married to Chu Mo, his arrogance has increased greatly, and he is a little more high-profile than usual.
Xiao Yongjue looked at Xiao Yongde, he didn't know these things as a son, why did an outsider know so clearly.
"Xiao Aiqing, is what this letter says true?"
Emperor Chu asked slowly, his hand tapping to make a regular sound.
"Daddy."
Xiao Yongjue pulled Xiao Yongde's sleeve, Xiao Yongde lowered his head and never got up.
"Your Majesty, what you said in the letter is neither true nor false, the minister and Prime Minister Gao have indeed met a few times, but what they are talking about has nothing to do with Yan and Chu."
Xiao Yongde did not defend but admitted, and as soon as the words fell, Su accepted the conversation.
"There are only two people upstairs, Prime Minister Gao and General Xiao, and only the two of you know what they said, and now General Xiao said that what he talked about has nothing to do with Yan and Chu, who will believe it?"
Su Cheng coaxed this, and those people nodded again and again.
Xiao Yongjue realized that calling them back in such a hurry was not for reward, but to ask for sin.
"Poof."
A laugh attracted everyone's attention, and when they looked for the source of the sound, they saw that it was Chu Yu laughing.
As for Xiao He, only he knows.
"I don't know what the fourth prince is laughing at?"
Su Cheng was stunned, with a look of contempt.
"Laughing at you, Lord Su, if you say so, this king went to the restaurant with Miss Su a few years ago, and it was Miss Su who said to this king that if the king didn't marry, she asked the king to ask for her......"
Chu Yu said slowly, but what he said made Su Chengsheng's face red, and the other ministers covered their mouths and snickered.
If this kind of shameful thing is taken out to the court, it will only be laughed at, and it is not only Chu Yu who has no face, but even Su Cheng's face is ruined.
Su Chengsheng's face was red, even the roots of his ears were a little red, and his hand pointed at Chu Yu tremblingly.
"You ......"
Chu Yu yawned, and his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.
"Master Su, don't forget what the identity of this king is, even if you don't need an honorific title, you still point to this king, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!"
His attitude changed suddenly, and even his expression became serious.
Su Cheng hurriedly covered his fingers and swallowed his saliva, the sweat on his forehead dripping.
Looking at Chu Yu's attitude, he knew that he was protecting Xiao Yongde today, didn't he know that he was going against Emperor Chu like this?
Chu Mo listened to Chu Yu's words that were not ashamed or impatient, and his face darkened a little.
"The minister knows his mistake, and he hopes that the prince will forgive his sins. But the little girl will never do such a foolish thing, let alone say that in public, and I hope that the prince will not slander the little girl, let alone ruin the little girl because of himself, this kind of joke is not allowed. ”
Su Cheng warned, and Chu Yu laughed again.
In today's court, the person who should have spoken most has never said half a word, but the person who should not have spoken has amazed the audience, which cannot be ignored.
I didn't think that there was still a bit of crooked reasoning and wisdom in the straw bag.
"Did Master Su think about General Xiao when he said this? It is natural for Lord Su to believe in his daughter, but General Xiao fought for the Chu State and killed the enemy, and used his body to block the front in exchange for today's people to live and work in peace and contentment, the letter only said that General Xiao and Gao Yuan were close, but what did the two talk about? Isn't this a slander and slander? ”
Chu Yu snorted coldly and said again and again like a cannonball.
"General Xiao has been in the dynasty for more than 30 years, accompanied the emperor for more than 10 years and then accompanied the emperor for more than 20 years, and is now fifty-five years old, most of the other ministers have returned to their hometowns at this age, and returned to the fields and forests, but General Xiao still led his troops to go out on the expedition, and regarded the Chu State as more important than his own life, he would really betray the Chu State and collude with the Yan State?"
A bold and ambitious remark stirred up the emotions of some ministers.
Chen Ye's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly knelt down.
Everyone shouted at Emperor Chu in unison: "Please Emperor Mingjian!" ”
The voice was uneven, but loud.
Su Cheng was taken aback by these people's actions, and the others also knelt down when they saw this, including Chu Mo and Chu Yan.
Everyone underestimated Chu Yu, Xiao Yongde could be convicted of this dynasty, and even if he didn't die, he shouldn't be rewarded.
Emperor Chu couldn't see joy and sorrow on the surface, but the hand holding the armrest of the dragon chair was already green and abrupt.
"The fourth brother is right, how could General Xiao endanger the affairs of the Chu State? This kind of letter is deliberately separating me from General Xiao! Only by making friends with people from other countries can we learn the culture of other countries and promote friendly coexistence between the two countries, and General Xiao is right! Little Haizi! ”
Emperor Chu raised his hand, and everyone stopped.
