Chapter 660: Hundred Officials Blocking the Way
The autumn rain gradually faded, as if they knew that they were going to go far away.
The sky gradually opened up, and the sun was gone, only lead clouds were seen.
After arranging all this, Cang Linchen asked Xia Yinhuan to pack up, the journey to the desert is far away, and it is not possible to arrive in an hour or two.
The arrangements must be thorough, if it is true that Ouyang Chen has kidnapped Concubine Yu, it may be another big battle to discuss the conspiracy.
Xia Yinhuan packed all relatively light clothes, the weather in the desert is different from the weather in the capital, there is a saying she has heard, wear a cotton jacket in the morning and a yarn in the afternoon.
People in the desert basically wear cotton jackets in the morning and a layer of yarn at night, and the temperature difference is extremely large.
By the time she had packed her luggage, Gong E had already urged at the door: "Niangniang, the carriage is already waiting at the palace gate." ”
"Got it." She replied lightly, glanced back at the cold hall door, sighed, and finally had the opportunity to go out again, but it was full of heaviness.
This trip is another unknown journey, I don't know when I will be able to come back, and I don't know how Ouyang Chen will treat them, if I want to do something to them, it will be over.
However, thinking that the desert had an agreement with Yasukuni first, I don't know if Ouyang Chen would take into account their peace agreement.
Walking out of the palace gate, he saw an ordinary carriage, mahogany lacquer stopped at the door, Xia Yinhuan knew that this trip was quietly sneaking into the desert, not too ostentatious, if the carriage was too gorgeous, it would be eye-catching.
Cang Linchen stood beside the carriage and looked at her from afar, standing beside the carriage in a white dress, standing with his hands in his hands, and his long figure stretched a long shadow in the sun.
"Let's go!" Xia Yinhuan smiled, carried the baggage, ran down the steps, and went straight to him.
"Yes." Cang Linchen was originally heavy-minded, but when he saw her smile like this, he was infected and let out a smile.
Cang Rinchen got into the carriage first, stood at the entrance of the carriage and stretched out her hand, she reached over and put it in his palm, and he dragged it into the carriage hard.
The carriage was very simple, with only two benches and a small table, on which was placed an incense burner, and at the moment there was a faint smell of ambergris.
Cang Linchen sat on the left side, and Xia Yinhuan also sat down, sat next to him, took his hand, and leaned towards him without saying a word.
"You sit over there, you'll be heavy in a carriage like this." Cang Linchen looked reluctant, but he was happy in his heart, and there were not many times when Xia Yinhuan was so sticky to him.
"Don't." Xia Yinhuan said stubbornly, and simply threw all the baggage on the bench on the right, "Isn't that good?" ”
Seeing that she was so reckless, Cang Linchen shook his head helplessly, and he didn't compete with her at the moment, and the carriage was already slowly moving. They don't have to bring a single soldier, and when they arrive at Qiyang City at the border, there is naturally a trend of soldiers and horses for them.
If you bring soldiers and horses from the palace all the way to the desert, it will be a burden.
The carriage went out of the palace, but the many officials at the gate of the palace blocked the way of the two, outside the red wall, the hundred officials knelt open, and the size of the official positions was arranged in order, and the scene was comparable to the grand occasion above the court.
"Your Majesty, you must not go to the desert, the emperor goes alone, there are many dangers, that Concubine Yu is seeking to usurp the throne is originally a scapegoat, what danger is the emperor going to encounter, how should the ministers deal with themselves, Emperor!" The Ministry of Rites knelt at the head of the carriage and did not let the coachman take another step.
Cang Rinchen opened the curtain and glanced at the hundred officials kneeling at the gate of the palace, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, he didn't expect the wind to leak so quickly, most of these hundred officials have installed their own people in the palace, I'm afraid he just decided to go to the desert, and these hundred officials have already heard the sound one by one.
"Bold, what does it mean that the emperor is alone, isn't this palace a person!" Xia Yinhuan listened to them crying and shouting about the plan, and opened the bead curtain and roared.
One of the things she doesn't hesitate to do in the palace is that everything seems to have to be agreed by civil and military officials.
They are just courtiers, but Cang Linchen is the monarch, and the monarch's decision is subject to the influence of the courtiers, how can this be like words!
"Queen Mother, Wei Chen did not choose to ask the Queen Mother to forgive her sins, and because Your Majesty took the Queen Mother with her, it is even more dangerous, so that the ministers and others are worried!" The Ministry of Rites is good for them one by one, and it is reasonable.
In fact, he wants Cang Linchen to stay in the palace to preside over the government, and if there is a Ming monarch, the courtiers can rest assured, if Cang Linchen is not there, and then there is a major usurpation event, it will only disrupt the country.
"I have made up my mind, you have cultivated a lot!" Cang Rinchen's anger gradually revealed, he put down the bead curtain and sat back on the bench, he understood the reason why the officials didn't want him to go to the desert.
Most of these officials were genuinely worried about his safety, and they were afraid that they were frightened by the usurpation of the throne by Concubine Wu Wangyu, and they wanted to keep him in the palace to protect him at this time.
And he also wants to dispose of King Wu on this matter, so as to avoid worries.
But he didn't want to deal with King Wu and Concubine Yu, and these days he has played one after another, all about Concubine Yu and King Wu, forcing him to make a decision.
"Your Majesty, just listen to the ministers, the concubine is really not worthy of your majesty's danger!" A group of old ministers knelt down and kowtowed, and the shouts dragged on with an end note, and they were very moving.
"If you stop again, the groom will follow!" Xia Yinhuan was so angry when he saw them, and several old ministers relied on themselves as the pillars of the country, doing whatever they wanted, and they couldn't tell the way of the monarch and the minister.
Since ancient times, courtiers are only auxiliary, and it is the emperor who is in charge, which is good, but some courtiers are becoming more and more unpresentable, and dare to influence the will of the monarch and ministers!
"Do you know that Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch, even if the concubine is guilty of heinous crimes, but she was pregnant and gave birth to the emperor in October, people must not be ruthless and unjust, and they must not abandon their mothers, if you are really for the good of Your Majesty today, it is best to make way for this palace!" Xia Yinhuan scolded repeatedly, and did not forget to instruct the groom: "Whoever rushes to block it will press over his body, and whoever wants to splash blood on the palace gate will stand in front of him!" ”
Several ministers looked at each other, speechless for a while, and hesitated whether they should retreat.
But the groom did not hesitate, but took the reins and struck the horse, and the steed barked in a high-pitched voice, and raised his hooves to move forward.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu knelt at the front, and raised his eyes in horror to see the horse's hooves inlaid with iron hooves, and he was so frightened that he froze in place, watching the horse's hooves continue to enlarge in his eyes.
It was still the official behind him who was quick and hurriedly pulled him, he rolled on the spot, rolled to the side, and the courtiers who were kneeling all the way saw that it was true, and no one dared to stop him, so he hurriedly dodged.
The courtiers who were no longer kneeling at the gate of the palace in an instant, and the carriage re-encircled unimpeded, and no one stopped them.
"I can't believe that you have a way to deal with them." Cang Linchen sneered, and the anger of the courtiers blocking the way was dispelled by Xia Yinhuan's resolute and resolute actions.
"They really think that they are a dish, as if the earth would not turn without them! If you don't give them a little color, you kick your nose in the face! Xia Yinhuan said angrily, lifted the curtain and looked back, the courtiers were all standing behind the carriage, and their figures were getting farther and farther away.
"Earth?" Cang Rinchen felt inexplicable, she always said words that people couldn't understand.
What earth, rattan ball he has heard, but has not heard of the word earth.
"......" Xia Yinhuan was stunned, knowing that he had said some modern words again, and explained in a cold sweat: "You don't care what balls, why are there so many big men!" ”
She snorted coldly and changed the topic in time: "Have you brought the map, let's calculate the resting place." ”
In this day and age, there is no GPS and no online pre-order. When booking a hotel, you can only count the time and look at the map.
It would not be good if it was dark in a primeval forest, and there were only three of them, and it would not be enough for the wolves to fill their stomachs when they encountered wild wolves.
"Brought it." Cang Rinchen hurriedly took out the map on his waist, spread it out on the table, and said: "When you go out from the capital, it will probably be dark when you arrive at Wuyue City, and you will stay in Wuyue City on the first day, and then you should be in Shuanghua Town......
The two discussed in the car, and the carriage left the capital and galloped on the official road.
When the two of them left, the night ring in the palace was miserable, he wanted to return to the palace of King Lian, but he heard that many ministers asked to see him.
I can't get out of the palace at the moment, if I insist on leaving the palace, I'm afraid that if I can't get out of the palace, I will be blocked.
Thinking about it, Ye Xinghuan had no choice but to summon the ministers, outside the imperial study, the ministers came in groups, and the leader was the Ministry of Rites, who was almost trampled to death by the horse's hooves, and he was now angry.
Seeing that even the etiquette was thrown out of the clouds, he asked closely: "King Lian, why don't you stop the emperor from taking the queen to the desert, do you know how dangerous the trip to the desert is!" ”
"That's what you're here for?" After pacifying the war in a row, and experiencing the usurpation of the throne and the flooding of Linjiang City, the current Yasukuni is in need of recuperation, but the dust has left Yasukuni and gone to the desert, and the minister must have objections.
However, since Cang Linchen was gone, he took his place as a temporary assistant.
"Exactly." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "King Lian and His Majesty are like brothers, if you don't stop Your Majesty at this time, I don't know if King Lian is the same as King Wu!" ”
After the flood in Linjiang City, King Wu Yijue and many of the current refugees are starving and freezing, although it is to build water conservancy, but it also needs to use the national treasury.
Cang Linchen is not there, who will preside over the overall situation!
"Your Majesty has his own decision-making, and as a courtier, this king can only obey His Majesty's orders, what your lord said is a bit rude!" Ye Xinghuan listened to the words of the Ministry of Rites, lowered his eyes slightly, and there was a little coldness in his bright eyes under his slender eyelashes.
He never thought of usurping the throne in a certain dynasty, and even when there was such an opportunity in front of him, he did not move the slightest evil thought.
But now that he is being insulted like this, Rao is night walk is better, and there is also anger.
"Your Majesty is here to save the concubine who has committed a serious crime, and the desert is often thousands of miles away, if something happens, will King Lian be happy or sad?" The Ministry of Rites is still articulate, and every sentence is exquisite.
If the mouth hangs over the river, it can reverse the power of black and white.
Ye Xinghuan snorted coldly, and glanced at the Ministry of Rites, he is now acting as an agent for Cang Rinchen to deal with state affairs, even if he is angry one day, he can't bear it, if he is not good to the hundred officials, he will definitely not be able to convince the public.
After thinking for a moment, he filtered the words in his mind before he said to the Ministry of Rites: "This king is a courtier, and this king has also persuaded His Majesty, but His Majesty insists on doing it, and this king is helpless. ”
He looked at the few strands of hair hanging down on his sideburns, and he was angry and ruined, and he probably guessed something.
"This ......" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was blocked by his words, and he was speechless for a moment, look at this, look at that, but none of the bureaucrats were as excited as him, and they all lowered their heads to avoid his gaze.
He was furious, and no one was on his side, so he snorted angrily and walked away.
