Chapter 773: Dismissal
Emperor Hui thought about it, and felt that Lu Zheng was so confident in his confession, naturally it was not good to listen to the words of Yushi alone, so he said: "Since this is the case, then Lu Aiqing will also tell me, what happened yesterday, what is going on, I and the Manchu Dynasty are witnesses, if Lu Aiqing is really innocent, I will definitely not listen to the words of one person." ”
As he spoke, Emperor Hui's gaze swept towards the imperial history that impeached Lu Zheng.
When the imperial history came into contact with Emperor Hui's gaze, he immediately shrunk his neck, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at the Son of Heaven.
His reaction fell into Emperor Hui's eyes, but he seemed a little weak-hearted, and he couldn't help but have less trust in him, and his face was a little bad.
Although he is not Emperor Wen and Emperor Wu, he is also well versed in the way of the emperor, and he is not unaware of how the courtiers react and what it means, and he is not even ignorant of the implications in the court, so when he saw this situation, he guessed that he was most likely instructed by someone.
Who commands it, may not be completely sure, but there are a few candidates in mind.
Emperor Hui also understood that this kind of court dumping could not be eradicated, so although he was impatient, he did not show it, and only sat solemnly and listened to Lu Zheng's argument.
It may not be appropriate to say that the rebuttal is too indifferent, because Lu Zheng's tone is too indifferent, as if he is telling a small matter that has nothing to do with him.
Emperor Hui didn't interrupt Lu Zheng, and listened to Lu Zheng all the time.
Lu Zheng told yesterday's events as they were, which was very different from what the imperial history said.
One is to bully people and oppress people, and the other is to be kind and save people on a snowy day, and the two are very different from each other, as if they have experienced two completely different things.
In fact, many officials in the court also knew about yesterday's incident, and some even had female dependents and servants in the family who saw what happened yesterday with their own eyes, and knew that what Lu Zheng said was exactly right, neither adding oil and vinegar, nor deliberately omitting it.
In comparison, what the imperial history said seemed extremely funny.
In fact, after getting along for so long, no one knows what kind of character Lu Zheng is, and it is just a matter of saying that he is anything else, and he is a bully by power, but this has never been done before, and it is unwise to use such a crime to climb Lu Zheng.
Everyone has a scale in their hearts, which is right and wrong, in fact, most of them have plans in their hearts, but it is not their own business, and others are not willing to talk nonsense.
This is the mentality of most people, but some courtiers who have a close personal relationship with Lu Zheng will not sit idly by and watch Lu Zheng be framed.
However, to everyone's surprise, the first person to speak for Lu Zheng was not a few adults who had a close personal relationship with the Lu family, but a military general who looked a little angry.
As soon as Lu Zheng's voice fell, the general official came out and said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Lu said can testify, yesterday Lord Lu returned to Beijing with his family, and the minister's inner son was also waiting to enter the city. Yesterday, Lord Lu's family did save a child at the gate of the city, the road suddenly encountered a snowstorm, there were too many people waiting to enter the city, the soldiers were afraid of chaos, strictly according to the rules, do not call people to cut into the city, no matter whether they are high or low, all are treated equally, the child has a high fever, the child's parents are anxious to take the child into the city to see the disease, but they are not allowed to enter the door, seeing that the child is going to be bad, fortunately, Lord Lu's fiancée is here, the magic hand rejuvenated, saved the child's life, but the child has a high fever and needs medicine, so, Lord Lu will discuss with the soldiers guarding the city and the people waiting to enter the city, first take the child's family into the city, this is the truth that the minister knows, yesterday, all the people who are waiting to enter the city, all agree that Lord Lu's family will enter the city first, and there is no power to oppress people, Your Majesty Shengming, please also ask Your Majesty to make a clear decision, and return Lord Lu's innocence! ”
This is a third-grade general, who was originally stationed outside, but he was recalled not long ago, and he has never said anything in the court, nor has he seen any secret dealings with any adult.
However, it is precisely because of this that these words seem more credible.
If these words were said by the Right Prime Minister or Wen Guogong and others, Emperor Hui might still feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but these words were said by a general who had no foundation and no rights to entangle, and Emperor Hui believed it in his heart.
No matter what the general's personal relationship with Lu Zheng is, at this time, there is actually no need for her to argue for Lu Zheng.
That's why his words are all the more credible.
Emperor Hui knew that the generals were different from the civil servants, they were more straightforward, and they were not very good at talking, so they didn't need to bother guessing their words most of the time.
That's fine.
In fact, if yesterday's incident was really as the general said, it would not be difficult to investigate, and so many people were present at that time, and it was really easy to find out the situation at that time by asking some questions.
However, Emperor Hui still asked the imperial history who impeached Lu Zheng first, "Lu Aiqing, what do you think of what Lord Lu and General Chen said?" ”
At this time, Emperor Hui asked Lord Lu what he thought, which was actually equivalent to asking Lord Lu, everyone has told the matter as it is, what else do you have to say.
Generally, some scheming courtiers, at this time, should admit their mistakes first, saying that they were negligent, and ask Emperor Hui to forgive their sins.
In this case, at least the punishment can be lighter.
However, this Lu Yushi obviously faced this situation for the first time, and when Emperor Hui asked him like this, he immediately became confused, and he vomited for a long time, and he didn't say why.
However, Hui Di was impatient.
He had actually seen through the tricks of these people.
On the surface, it seems that the matter reported by Lu Yushi has nothing to do with the matter of King Dejun entering the palace to complain yesterday, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find the connection between the two.
He has always been impatient with these things, and even more ruthlessly, the courtiers played tricks in front of him, trying to coax him as a fool, even if he is not a prince of the ages, but he is not a fool!
Emperor Hui was impatient, and the direct result was that he was no longer impatient to see Lu Yushi, so he immediately waved his hand and dismissed Lu Yushi from the position of imperial history, and was not allowed to enter the court as an official within three years.
Emperor Hui can also see it, there are so many imperial histories in the court, and people like Lu Yushi who are so incapable of looking at the mountains are so incompetent, it is better not to do it, and keeping it will also lower the level of the officials of the Nanzhao court!
Lu Yushi was directly dismissed, and when the others saw this, how could they not understand what Emperor Hui meant, so no one stood up to intercede for Lu Yushi.
Lu Yushi was already afraid, but now that he was really dismissed, he was even more frightened, and looked in the direction of King Dejun.
It's a pity that his eyes are full of hope, but King Dejun turns a blind eye.
In the end, Lu Yushi still didn't dare to shout out, and was directly pulled out of the court by the imperial guards.
