323. Chapter 323: Controversy
In the eyes of the four princes, a man can have no power, can not have glory, wealth, brocade and food, as a prince, even if you are a beggar, as long as you have integrity, righteousness, the four princes are willing to make friends with you;
In fact, the table of the three princes, the four princes are thinking clearly, he can fully understand what the three princes are thinking, but for this kind of behavior, the four princes are not ashamed, so this mustard is silently planted in his heart.
"Well, in that case, I will give you half a month, and if you can't find out the truth, then wait for the punishment!" the emperor seemed to have finally waited for a satisfactory answer, and his tone was much tougher when he spoke.
Just when everyone felt that the matter had subsided, a person suddenly stood up in the crowd, holding a wat board, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has this music!"
The emperor's nerves, which could not stand the teasing, were continuously attacked today, and he was very unhappy, and he was originally going to send this person back, but when he saw this person's face clearly, he could only ask weakly: "Yuwen Aiqing, what do you do?"
This person is not an outsider, it is Yu Wenxuan, who was coerced by the four princes with a sword a few days ago. When the old minister of the two dynasties came out of the class, almost everyone was already holding their breath, thinking that this old minister was planning to move back to the face he had lost a few days ago.
The emperor naturally thought so, if it was someone else, he might be able to send it down and say something to discuss at another time, but Yu Wenxuan's qualifications and prestige made the emperor unable to do this kind of behavior no matter what, so he could only give him a chance.
Yu Wenxuan arched his hand to show respect, and then glanced at the two princes, and in his eyes, which had become cloudy because of old age, an imperceptible sharpness suddenly flashed.
The third prince knew in his heart how much status this respected old minister had. It is said that when the news of the four princes holding swords in the palace to threaten the ministers came out, Yu Wenxuan's protégés began to seek revenge for this old man, and even claimed to join the four princes in the court.
The third prince does not know what Yu Wenxuan thinks, but judging from Yu Wenxuan's behavior of suppressing all the protégés and former officials, this old man should probably be a person who will not take revenge for personal gain. But now, in this case, the emperor has relented, but Yu Wenxuan suddenly stood up, which made people feel a little frightened.
Yu Wenxuan straightened his clothes and slowly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the old minister feels that this case is tried by the two princes, which is against the law of the country!
As soon as Yu Wenxuan's words came out, the courtiers made a sensation again, you must know that openly accusing the emperor's holy edict of discord with the law of the country is a very strict problem, but today it is the old ministers of the two dynasties of the national dynasty, if you want to treat Yu Wenxuan disrespectfully, this is impossible, it can touch Long Yan, but it is really not a joke.
At this moment, the emperor's expression was very tangled, it could be seen that the emperor was already very angry at this moment, and if he looked closely, under the sleeves of the emperor's robe, his fingers were already clucking, and his fists were clenched, and the strength was really inconsistent with his age.
"In my opinion, what should this case do?" the emperor asked very succinctly, almost word for word.
Everyone could see that the emperor was really angry, and if he continued to say, nothing would happen. However, Yu Wenxuan turned a blind eye, and still said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, this case is caused by the unfavorable garrison of the forbidden army, so it should be handled jointly by the Criminal Department, the Jiucheng Terracotta Division, Dali Temple, Yushitai, and the Yamen of the Forbidden Army." ”
"Lord Yuwen, since ancient times, there has been no joke, and now His Majesty has issued a clear edict, if it is withdrawn, where is the prestige of the imperial court, where is the prestige of His Majesty? Adults are alarmist, aren't they?" Yu Wenxuan had just finished speaking, and someone stood up to oppose it.
Everyone understands that at this time, it is naturally the best way to approve of the emperor's expression, as long as the emperor's mind remains unchanged, this treasure is not wrong, therefore, after someone takes the lead, someone immediately stands up against it.
The emperor silently watched the reactions of everyone below, the expression on his face was very calm, and it seemed that all the qi qi was developing in the direction he expected.
"That's enough! What are you arguing about! I have my own decision!" the emperor was silent for a moment, and suddenly let out a roar of rage, and the imperial power seemed to be revived again, shaking all those who were vying for power.
In this dispute, the third prince and the fourth prince remained silent, as if a qiē had nothing to do with them. In fact, they really have nothing to do with this matter, after all, all they think about is to protect Hua Jiangyue, and they really don't think much about the rest of the gains and losses.
On the one hand, the three princes were originally forced, and it was normal to be silent at the moment, while the four princes had other plans, so it was understandable not to say a word.
Yu Wenxuan never thought that some people would feel that the imperial power was higher than the law, so he was in a trance, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Now that the emperor has spoken, he naturally can't stop talking.
"Your Majesty, the people never care about prestige, what they care about is fairness! If Your Majesty sets a precedent for the imperial power, breaks the rules, and destroys the law and discipline, it will inevitably cause a great disaster! The minister asks His Majesty to think twice!" Yu Wenxuan said very loudly, it was far from his age, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would have believed that a person of this age would have such great courage and physical strength.
Yu Wenxuan stared at the emperor, his eyes were looking directly, his eyes were very resolute, it seemed that no one could compare to his determination, and he would not have a trace of jealousy about the imperial power. Looking at Yu Wenxuan like this, the emperor's heart was a little shaken, since ancient times, martial arts and loyalty to the death of the emperor, if the emperor really insists on his dignity is the greatest, then, Yu Wenxuan is not unable to do the death of the dead.
The emperor stared at Yu Wenxuan viciously, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he could only look at it like that, and at this moment, he suddenly felt that as the emperor, he really couldn't control everything.
"Erchen thinks that Lord Yuwen is wholeheartedly for the country, regardless of gains and losses, and his words are reasonable. Therefore, I ask my father to take back his fate!" the fourth prince suddenly spoke, his eyes were full of determination, and he was a little more resolute than his previous expression.
The emperor's hand clattered the dragon chair, and he sat on the dragon chair, snorted, and did not make any reply.
In the crowd, another young minister stood up and shouted, "The secretary of the Ministry of Punishment seconded the proposal!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, seeing that the prince and the old ministers all agreed with this statement, who dared to guarantee that the emperor would not change his mind, so there were more and more voices of approval.
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
The echoing sound of sentences pierced the emperor's heart and nerves again and again. The emperor suddenly felt very powerless, for the emperor, the most important thing is power and dignity, but now, the emperor is actually swayed by many ministers.
"Well, pass on the decree! The third prince and the fourth prince were ordered to supervise the theft of the national treasure, and the Criminal Department, the Jiucheng Terracotta Division, the Dali Temple, the Yushitai, and the Yamen of the Forbidden Army obeyed the dispatch of the two princes to assist in handling the case. ”
For the emperor, no matter what, his words could not be taken back, it was a matter of power and dignity, so he would rather choose a compromise than make an edict to retract his fate.
The reason why Yuwenxuan was able to survive two dynasties and still be undefeated was that it was impossible to rely on loyalty alone, and more importantly, Yuwenxuan was straightforward but not roundabout, loyal but not dedicated. Therefore, when the emperor made concessions, and it was still in line with the law, Yu Wenxuan had no intention of insisting, after all, if he fell, then there was really no guarantee of anything.
Hearing the emperor's edict, Yu Wenxuan took the lead in speaking to express his approval. "Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
With Yu Wenxuan's long live, this dispute has finally come to an end. Subsequently, the three princes, the four princes, and the ministers involved in the case also came out to lead the decree and attributed the matter to nothingness.
No one noticed that the fourth lady, who had been silent on the side, always glared angrily at Hua Jiangyue and the two princes. The clenched fists have already expressed her feelings, in her opinion, Hua Jiangyue is really hateful, she has fought with her many times, but she has never been able to take advantage. Every time you have an advantage, someone will step up to help. This time, the emperor had already issued an edict to attack Hua Jiangyue, but he still let Hua Jiangyue escape, which made the four ladies can't help but ignite a nameless fire in their hearts.
If it weren't for the palace, if it wasn't for the court, the fourth lady really wanted to rush to Hua Jiangyue and slap Hua Jiangyue a few loud slaps to relieve the hatred in her heart.
In the early morning of the next day, several ministers of the Yamen Palm Seal, who were originally stable, changed their usual life rules because of a holy decree of the emperor and began a busy life.
In the Prince's Mansion, the eyes of the four princes were full of perseverance and resentment, holding a silver spear in their hands, dancing vigorously, and the strength and ruthlessness that instantly erupted had already made the master very angry.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the dance hall, and then a familiar voice said, "What's the use of you playing with guns here at this time, come with me!" Father and Emperor passed on the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the commander of the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses, the Dali Temple Temple, the Imperial History Chief, and the Commander of the Forbidden Army in the upper study!"
"What? Could it be that my father believes it?" said the fourth prince, his eyes full of anxiety.
The third prince was full of helplessness and said: "Do you think that people have obtained stolen goods, what is there to believe." I'll hurry into the palace, you quickly pack up. I'm afraid it's too late!"
After the banquet dispersed last night, the forbidden army began to search the palace one by one by the emperor's will, and because of concern, the third prince, the fourth prince and Hua Jiangyue were always together, and when Hua Jiangyue returned to the room, what was waiting for her was a cold iron shackle.
