Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Great Prince Returns Strongly
Seeing that the ministers below were about to resign, the emperor was not nervous.
"General Zhong is just angry, don't worry about it." He still maintained his previous sitting posture without the slightest emotion, for many years, these civil and military attaches could pinch each other as long as they met.
At the court meeting on the fifteenth day of every month, these two groups of people have to scold each other, and if it weren't for him as the emperor, they could fight together.
Of course, these civil officials didn't dare to stretch out their hands, and if they really did it, all fifty civil officials would not be enough to fight General Zhong alone.
However, this General Zhong can not only fight, but also has great kung fu in his mouth, and he once had a dispute with a minister in the palace, and he was stunned for half an hour without repeating it, and finally moved out the affairs of this minister's other foreign wealth, and the minister was so angry that he vomited out a mouthful of blood, passed out, and was carried back to the house.
Since then, for a long time, the ministers of the court avoided walking when they saw him, and they were afraid that they would be scolded for being too late.
After a few years, these civil officials sprouted in a solid state, purely because they had healed their scars and forgotten the pain, and when they caught the mistakes of the military attachés, they would hold on to them, and they would pick important but not urgent folds to stop them.
In the past, General Zhong didn't come forward, but this time he scolded when he opened his mouth, it seems that the backlog of years made him want to go against these civil officials.
The emperor thought to himself.
It may not be possible to disperse by noon today.
Thinking about it, General Zhong had already scolded the ministers, and the rest of the military attachés still came out from time to time to interject, and the angry civil officials blew their eyes and glared.
An official asked rhetorically, "The people who handed over the folds were all chamberlains, so why did we wait for the reason for stopping the folds?" ”
General Zhong immediately said, "Your Excellency, you also said that the people who handed over the folds were all chamberlains, since they were chamberlains, how could they dare to deliberately stop which folds from being approved by the emperor?" Someone must have instructed it. ”
"You're using strong words!" Another official said.
"You're the ones who make the point!" General Zhong shouted, "It takes three days and two nights to send the song back to the capital from the border, and it takes three days and two nights to speed up the whip, and General Liu, who was guarding the Qingping Pass and was broken through the city gate, sent a battle report nine days ago, who was on an errand in the palace that day, and who took the song and was responsible for sending it to the emperor, and pulled out these minions one by one, and the general would not believe that he could not find out who was behind the scenes!" ”
"Do you dare to look into it? Do you dare? Answer the general, in front of the emperor, say! Say you dare! He asked sharply, word by word, "Of course you don't dare, because you have a weak heart, and there are rebellious ministers and thieves among you, is it wrong to scold?" ”
The hall suddenly fell into a deathly silence, and the emperor on the dragon chair finally raised his eyelids, oh no, not just raised his eyelids, but slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.
You must know that in the territory of the Flying Dragon Kingdom, as soon as there is a drought and the fields are waterlogged, these ministers will turn their heads and squeeze the emperor, saying that the emperor is not virtuous and does not concentrate on governing the country, so the heavens are angry and punish, so the emperor has to go to eat the Buddha and pick up the lamp to review the backlog, which is a long time ago, so the emperor can't even have a meal with the concubine.
But these ministers can't be killed, and if they do, they will have a reputation for brutality and lose the hearts of the people.
He can't point to these ministers and scold, it will damage the image of majesty.
The emperor really held his breath and couldn't say.
Now that someone is scolding him, of course he is happy, because he has such a slight smile.
Although the officials below were very noisy, they all looked at the emperor with a third eye, and the emperor's smile naturally fell in their eyes.
The civil officials scolded the generals with hatred in their hearts, old fox! Slippery! It's a shame that you people are famous for being upright and loyal because you are military generals, but now you are also patting the emperor's ass.
However, what made them most angry was not that these generals slapped the emperor's ass, but that this sycophant should be done by them

Come and shoot.
The military attachés are very happy, look, their mouths are open and closed, who can't speak.
Just when the atmosphere was deadlocked, the prime minister took a step forward and bent down to salute, "Your Majesty, this twist was stopped by the minister." ”
General Zhong was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that someone would really recognize him, and he was still the prime minister.
"Prime Minister!" The ministers behind were stunned for a moment and immediately exclaimed, how can this kind of thing be recognized, if you don't admit it, you can stop it, it's just to be angry in front of these military attachés, but if you admit it, it's not so simple, it is no longer just a general Zhong's abuse, but the emperor's reproach.
The emperor was dissatisfied with the fact that a piece of music had to go through the hands of the minister before it could be approved, and now that the minister came out to confess his guilt, the emperor was not only dissatisfied, but angry.
Seeing that I am old and the prince is about to succeed to the throne, can I be slapped in the face in public?
The emperor must have thought so, he must have been.
The ministers below all felt that the hairs on their bodies stood up, and cold sweat flowed.
"Prime Minister Zhao." The emperor above finally straightened up and shouted with a smile.
"The minister is here." Prime Minister Zhao still bent over.
"Bold!" The Emperor shouted loudly, stood up and stretched out his fingers, "Bold! Do you think that if you are the head of the officials, I will not be able to kill you? ”
"I don't dare." Prime Minister Zhao still bent over.
"Don't you dare? You dare to stop the urgent report on the northeast border, what else do you dare not do. ”
"Because the emperor is a bright monarch, the minister dares to stop him, even if he is discovered, the minister is not afraid." Prime Minister Zhao Cheng raised his head with a scoffing.
The emperor's face was pale, and General Zhong's heart jumped below.
This short gap gave Zhao Cheng the opportunity to counterattack, "The minister dared to stop this twist and turn because Qingping Pass had been lost, and the emperor would soon receive a letter written by the Audit Department of the army to describe the battle situation, but it was only a few days late, and the loss had become a foregone conclusion, so what if the news came back a few days later." ”
General Zhong immediately said, "Then that's not a reason for you to stop the play. ”
"The reason why this official stopped the performance was that you and the defeated general misreported the military situation and shirked responsibility." Prime Minister Zhao shouted at him angrily and pointed to the outside of the hall, "What kind of weapon can break through the city gate with one use?" You go to the palace, no, you go to the city and grab a random person and ask them, and ask them if they believe it or not! ”
"You dare to say such a nonsensical thing, and blame the reason for the breaking of the city gate on a weapon." He continued, "General Zhong, the city is broken, no one blames you, after all, it was the army that did not arrive earlier, and the soldiers of the Tianyuan Kingdom arrived first, thus capturing the city. But look, go to the border, your soldiers have fled! ”
He sneered, "The deserters also deserve to come back......"
"Prime Minister Zhao!" General Zhong was not afraid of being inappropriate in front of the palace, so he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Prime Minister Zhao by the collar, "What's wrong with the deserter?" Is it wrong to escape? This is my soldiers, they can still escape back, if you change the prime minister, you can't escape. ”
There was a commotion in the hall.
A military attache didn't care about trespassing, and said loudly, "We people have been appreciated by the emperor and become officials, those soldiers can only fight at the border without this luck, they also have relatives in the territory, they want to live while serving the country, they don't want to die in a foreign country, and there are no bones." ”
He stepped forward and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the city has been broken, and they ...... If you want to go home, can't you run away? ”
At this point, his eyes were already red, the hall was quiet, everyone looked at him, and General Zhong let go in a daze.
Prime Minister Zhao was shocked, how could he go from lying about the military to deserting?
He glanced at the military attache kneeling, in his early thirties, not tall or strong, but much tougher than these civilian officials.
Just such a person, how
