Chapter 493: Imperial Discussion
Author: Skyrim Drive
Feng He rang, but he didn't expect the two brothers to set off for Feng overnight. After a while, he pondered whether to send someone to chase the two brothers back and pursue them? However, Kazega Hibiki quickly gave up, he had just ascended to the throne, and his foundation was unstable, and it was not suitable for him to clash with his brothers head-on. The two princes went to the seal overnight to avoid tomorrow's court meeting, which also showed their intention to retreat, stay out of the matter, and not go along with the ministers.
It's just that what was written in the letter that Feng Ran sent to Prince Kang?
Prince Kang hooked up with the ministers on one side and watched the ministers, which made the ministers' forced killing of the traitors even more confusing and the situation difficult to understand. Prince Kang took the initiative to leave, which made the situation of this matter much easier. Even if Prince Kang has any different intentions, he can wait until later.
Feng He Xiangxiang couldn't help but think: It was probably Feng Ran who forced Prince Kang and Prince Wu away, right? Otherwise, why did Prince Kang retreat and withdraw from the profitable situation?
Mao Zheng, the attendant outside the hall said: "Your Majesty, it's time to prepare to go to court." ”
Unconsciously, before dawn, Feng He Xiangxiang and Wen Caizhe had not yet discussed it properly, and it was already time to go to court the next day. Because Wen Caizhe's official rank is only seven grades, he is not qualified to go to the court, and the sound of the wind makes Wen Caizhe withdraw and act according to the plan with the dark department.
When Wen Caizhe left, Feng He Xiangxiang took out Imperial Doctor Jiang's share of the fold and looked at it again, and finally, threw it into the heating brazier in the hall, and watched the fold turn into ashes, Feng He Xiangxiang exhaled a long breath, and then instructed the chamberlain to change his clothes and wash himself.
When Feng He Xiang Xiang walked from the palace into the Jinluan Palace, the first thing he saw was Feng Ran sitting under the seal steps, ranking at the head of the ministers. Ever since He Yue set up a seat for Feng Ran in the court, Feng Ran has been enjoying the privilege of not kneeling when he sees the emperor and sits on the court. After the new emperor succeeded to the throne, Feng Ran still retained the privilege of setting up a seat because he was the father of the new emperor. It's just that Feng He Xiang Xiang ascended the throne and presided over the government for more than ten days, and Feng Ran has never come to the court.
About the wind dyed also noticed that the wind was watching him, in the midst of the ministers kneeling down and the mountain shouting long live, he tilted his head sideways and smiled at the wind and the wind and the sound of the wind. Feng He Xiang saw that Feng Ran was wearing an official uniform, looking thin, and he didn't hold a warm pot in his hand, and he abruptly wore two silk flowers, one red and one white, on the official hat. He knew that since the death of the first emperor, his father's cold had become worse day by day, and just looking at it, he felt cold for Feng Ran. Waiting for the ministers to salute, before the discussion, Feng He Xiangxiang first asked the chamberlain to go out to summon General Feng's personal entourage, took a plain white big fur Qiu Yu to drape General Feng over the outside of his official uniform, and brought a warm pot to come in and simmer General Feng's hands.
At the beginning of the court meeting, the ministers were not polite at all after last night's series of discussions and discussions, and the ministers of Gu Ming once again counted the mistakes and mistakes of General Feng in the past ten years, and also participated in the impeachment of General Feng during the serious illness of the first emperor, and once again stated the fact that General Feng tried to use the wind to replace him and seek to seize the He family, and begged His Majesty to kill the traitor and eliminate the traitor's henchman Feng and the minions of the Zheng family.
The three ministers quoted scriptures, their tongues were full of lotus flowers, they talked endlessly, they made generous speeches, they were full of righteous indignation, and they said that they were as if their sins deserved death. The ministers who knelt on the ground again and again in the court expressed their seconding with the same hatred and hatred, and asked the power and traitors again and again to calm down the people's anger and unite the people's hearts.
It's a pity that the words spoken by the ministers in the court are quoted from the scriptures at every turn, sarcastic and elegant, chewing on words, and reading poetry and books.
During this period, in order to prove the authenticity of his own accusations of wind pollution, the ministers, with the consent of Emperor Chengqian, summoned several witnesses to the court. There are also several ministers, who angrily questioned Feng Ran, do they admit that it is true?
Although Feng Ran didn't understand the rhetoric of the ministers, he knew that he couldn't speak indiscriminately in the court, and as long as he said the wrong word, he would be caught and chased and beaten by the ministers, which he had already learned when he was the emperor. Therefore, in the face of the questioning of the ministers and witnesses, if there is indeed a matter, Feng Ran will admit it bluntly, and if there is no matter, Feng Ran only replied lightly: "There is no such thing." ”
Even if it is true, if you look at it from different angles, you will have different opinions, but from beginning to end, Feng Ran did not defend himself. Feng Ran's temperament has always been his own way, unruly, and self-admiring, he didn't even pay attention to He Yue back then, and some ministers and witnesses, let alone under his eyes, how could he let him lower his posture by half a point? His gentleness and concession were only given to those close to him.
In accordance with the crimes of wind pollution in the previous example, they were questioned and implemented one by one.
Pan Wenhong continued to kneel and play, and finally pointed out that Feng Ran was plotting to be the first emperor's main room, harming Queen Mao, please let Princess Qingxun go to the court as a witness. The emperor will double cultivate, and the wind dye has practiced the double cultivation of evil skills, and the first emperor's essence has been exhausted, and it is about to become a double cultivation demon, which can be very effective in combating wind dye, and the father-son relationship between the emperor and the wind dye, and stimulate anger, but this matter involves the prestige of the first emperor and the reputation of the royal family, so it is not good to openly play it right in the court.
About last night, after the ministers had deliberated, they had sent the relevant witnesses outside the hall early in the morning to wait. As soon as the witnesses were called, the witnesses were brought to the court quite quickly. Princess Qingxun wore a red robe with a white pheasant round neck, a three-fold colorful pattern skirt, a silver-inlaid jasper belt, a gold thread five-beam crown on her head, and a pair of golden phoenix hairpins with pearls on the top, and walked up to the court with a graceful manner. It's just that the servant woman who supported her by her side was slightly lame, if it wasn't for her special identity, it would make people suspect that she couldn't even find a sound servant woman in the Horse Mansion?
Although Princess Qingxun is her own sister, in the court, she also behaved to Emperor Chengqian to see the monarch, and then played how she "saw with her own eyes" General Feng broke into her mother's bedroom and plundered it, and then was shocked to hear the "fact" that the queen mother fell into the water, and then, knelt down in front of the seal, crying and begging: "This thief has long coveted the position of the first emperor's main room, and is plotting in a vain attempt to harm the queen mother. ”
Princess Qingxun knelt down and cried, followed by many ministers who also knelt down and kowtowed: "I beg Your Majesty to get rid of the traitors, to appease Queen Mao's hatred for Zhaoxue, and to comfort Ci Ling." ”
Feng Ran said lightly: "Qing Xun, when you were six or seven years old, you still remember it so clearly, you have a good memory...... This general is sorry for Queen Mao, but Queen Mao fell into the water and has nothing to do with this general, you must have read it wrong, and I remembered it badly. ”
Princess Qingxun stared at Feng Ran and cried: "No, this palace can see it clearly, it can't be wrong, it's you! It's you! It's you! It's you who threw the queen mother into the water, causing her to choke her heart and lungs to death! You are the murderer who killed my mother!" screamed: "Murderer!"
Looking at Princess Qingxun's appearance, she was too excited, as if she could go crazy at any time, it was really not appropriate to ask in detail, Feng He Xiangxiang had to ask the maid to step forward, and help Princess Qingxun go down to the hall to rest first.
Feng Ran suddenly said: "Shan girl, don't come to be harmed?" In such a serious court, Feng Ran actually greeted the servant woman beside Princess Qingxun, and the minister was also a little surprised, so they looked at Princess Qingxun's side together.
Shan Lulian kept her head down, not wanting Feng Ran to greet her openly in the court, and her face turned white with fright. didn't dare to look up at Feng Ran at all, only bowed slightly in the direction of Feng Ran, which was regarded as a response, and then helped Princess Qingxun to limp slightly and quickly exited the court. All the ministers only saw the servant woman retreating all the way, and their faces became more and more gloomy and gray, and in the end, the hands holding Princess Qingxun were trembling.
Feng Ran used the kung fu of thousands of miles to transmit sound, in front of the ministers, word by word, and sent what he wanted to say into Shan Lulian's ears: "How did the queen mother fall into the water, don't you know?" Shan Lulian is the head female official of Queen Mao, and she is the escort brought into the palace by Queen Mao, and the relationship is close. Feng Ran said again: "You have repeatedly instigated the princess to cause trouble, it seems that the ten lashes that year are far from teaching you a lesson." After returning home, he either told the princess and the emperor the truth, or cut himself. "Why did Shan Lulian repeatedly smuggle the princess to frame herself, Feng Ran didn't care anymore. It's just that for the sake of Princess Qingxun being He Yue's daughter Feng He Xiangxiang's sister, it is obviously not a good thing to put such a few women with ulterior motives by the princess's side, and Feng Dye really intends to get rid of it.
After Princess Qingxun left the court, the evidence of Feng Ran's crime was completed, and the three ministers who took care of their lives made generous statements one by one to denounce it, and finally knelt down to ask the emperor, obey the people's will, and put the one who was good at court politics, made power and trouble, and committed many crimes, and also intended to usurp the throne, and used the wind to replace the power of the traitor, took the prison, filed a case for strict trial, promulgated its heinous crimes, and launched the Wumen Owl to show the public, with the anger of the people, to collect the hearts of the people, and to establish the prestige of the monarch.
In the court, most of the ministers knelt down, and most of them were old and high-ranking ministers. Many of the younger officials who had recently been promoted behind the court were standing and did not join them. They have been in the same dynasty for a short time, and there is not much hostility, and considering that Feng Ran is the emperor's father in the end, it is better for him to remain neutral.
Feng Ran called someone to bring a message early in the morning, telling the Zheng family and the Feng family not to go to the court, so in the entire court, only a few ministers stood up to defend Feng Ran. However, the ministers have counted the crimes of Feng Ran, almost all of them have been implemented, and Feng Ran himself has admitted it, and they can't argue for Feng Ran, so they have to repeatedly emphasize Feng Ran's past exploits, and implore His Majesty to see General Feng's immortal exploits in expelling Wuhei and unifying the Feng Kingdom, and can continue to forgive General Feng's mistakes like the previous emperor. However, the Minister Gu Ming's sentence of "merits and demerits do not offset each other" made them speechless.
