"In order to avoid suspicion, it was not Pang Xie's department on duty in the palace that day, he just bought a few guards to set fire, but after the palace fire, Pang Xie led a large number of troops to the palace, in the name of entering the palace to rescue the driver, the imperial city guards did not allow it, and finally Pang Xie actually besieged the palace on behalf of the army."

"In the end, I ordered the other three guards to be sent out to suppress Pang Xie, and now Pang Xie has been imprisoned, you may not think that all this was planned by my son, Song Zhe, the eighth prince."

After the emperor said this, he sank, and his mood was very low, as if he didn't even have the strength to get angry.

Qin could see that at this moment, the emperor was sad.

The emperor didn't speak, Qin Guan and Li Chaoen accompanied him in a daze, in fact, it was useless to say anything persuasive now, it was better to accompany him silently.

After a long while, the emperor said leisurely: "Qin Guan, I feel that the current court should change the atmosphere, I want to move some people, if it was before, I can only act a little cautiously, but now that you are here, I can be bolder." ”

"I need your support!" The emperor looked at Qin Guan and said.

Qin Guan's face turned pale: "Your Majesty, no matter what decision you make, the minister will support you, and the minister will promise you that as long as someone dares to disobey, the minister will sweep them away." ”

The emperor smiled, this was the first time Qin Guan had seen the emperor smile when he entered the palace.

The emperor issued a decree to convene a great court meeting tomorrow.

Originally, it was not the day of the big court meeting, but he couldn't wait.

After receiving this will, many people beat drums in their hearts, many people trembled, they should always come, King Yan returned to Beijing, and the emperor had a waist board, which was ready to start, but I don't know how many people will be involved.

On this night, many people couldn't sleep all night.

Qin Guan didn't leave the palace at night, he lived in the imperial city, and even Qin Guan's thousand guards were left in the palace.

Whether people want to or not, time never stops for a second, and the sun will still rise the next day.

People put on court clothes and came to the gate of the palace to prepare for the grand court meeting, in the past, colleagues would gather together to chat, but today these officials are standing there one by one, no one chatting, no one talking to each other, waiting for the palace to open in silence.

Because they don't know if they talk to the person next to them and go to court after a while, whether this person will be found out, and then they will be implicated because they are close to him.

The palace gate was opened with a "squeak", revealing a long corridor.

People began to enter one after another.

In the past, the familiar road, but today I feel a little more solemn, people look around and find the difference, the original forbidden army guards on this road, it is not the original iron armor and iron armor holding iron guns, but replaced by gray armor, holding firearms, a cold and killing soldier, everyone knows, this is the "Yan Wang Army", Yan Wang Qin Guan's guards, being targeted by the eyes of these guards, these adults feel cold.

Walking into the main hall, people found that His Majesty the Emperor, who should have arrived last, was already sitting on the dragon chair, and there was a person standing below, but it was Qin Guan, the king of Yan, who was wearing a purple dragon robe.

The emperor glanced at the officials who had entered, his face expressionless.

The officials found their positions, and one by one they stood upright, not daring to move casually.

"Today's court meeting, the Qing family can have a book." The emperor's indifferent voice echoed in the Golden Palace.

None of the courtiers spoke, and all stood still, because they knew that there was only one person as the protagonist today, and that was His Majesty the Emperor, who sat on the throne.

"Since you don't have a performance, then I'll talk about a few things, Zeng Yu, I remember that you are seventy-three this year."

Zeng Yu hurriedly stepped out, "Your Majesty, the old minister is indeed seventy-three years old. ”

"I remember that you have been the prime minister for more than ten years, and it has been really hard for you all these years." The emperor seemed to be encouraging, but his tone was light, and no one could hear the intimacy, and Zeng Yu felt even more depressed.

Suddenly, the emperor's tone raised and said: "Zeng Yu has meritorious service to the imperial court, and his hard work is high. ”

Everyone in the Golden Hall was shocked.

Started, the emperor began to do it, and as soon as it came up, it was a big move, cutting down the largest tree in the court.

Zeng Yu has been the prime minister for more than ten years, cultivated a large number of cronies, and has so much power in the imperial court that even the emperor has to think twice if he wants to move him, but now, because of Qin Guan, the king of Yan, the emperor dares to take Zeng Yu directly.

Zeng Yu knew that this time it was irretrievable, holding the jade plate in both hands, trembling and bowing to the emperor, "The old minister thanks His Majesty for his compassion for the old minister, the old minister has long had the idea of returning to his hometown, and now he has just got his wish." ”

The emperor looked at the old and unbearable Zeng Yu, how to say that Zeng Yu also assisted him for more than ten years, the two still had some feelings, the emperor said: "When you choose a place to retire, I will send the Ministry of Industry to build you a mansion and allow you to meet the standards of the prince." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zeng Yu thanked him again.

After Zeng Yu retreated, the emperor said again: "Shen Zheng, he is old and in good health, so he is authorized to return to his hometown to raise his body, and give him the three divisions of the mansion." ”

The emperor fired the second bullet, directly aimed at the deputy minister Shen Zheng, it seems that today's Great Zhao court is really going to turn the sky upside down.

When he heard his name, Shen Zheng sighed deeply, closed his eyes, he was old, he was only sixty-nine years old this year, he was in poor health, he practiced his fists and feet in the morning and evening, and ate three bowls of rice at a meal.

He knew that the previous farce had completely angered the emperor.

When the emperor finished speaking, Shen Zheng took the jade plate and bowed deeply, "Minister Shen Zheng, thank you." ”

Next, there is a series of personnel appointments and dismissals.

Deputy Prime Minister Yan Chi gave him a first-class literary official to allow him to return to his hometown, Liu Kuan, the secretary of the ministry, was demoted to the place, Yushitai Yushi Zhongcheng was removed, a privy deputy envoy of the Privy Council was removed, the three divisions were replaced, and the court of judges was replaced....

There were people trembling and coming out to thank him, and those who were not called by their names were also beating drums in their hearts.

And then there are the personnel appointments,

It turned out that Yang Wanhe, the last deputy minister in the ranks, became the prime minister, Lu Sheng, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Xie Mingtang, a bachelor of Hanlin, and Lin Shuquan, a secretary of the Ministry of War, all entered the cabinet and became vice ministers.

Later, the four formed a new cabinet.

The six Shangshu have been replaced one after another, and some other departments have also been replaced, and this time His Majesty's actions can be described as vigorous and drastic, without a trace of mud and water.

In the end, the emperor spoke: "Qin Guan has worked hard, given immortal food, saved the Li people, went out of Jiaozhi, opened up the territory and expanded the territory, and canonized Qin Guan as the Taishi, and set an example for hundreds of officials." ”

Many people's eyes were on the tall figure standing at the front, dressed in a purple dragon robe.
