Chapter Ninety-Five: Testimony in front of the Palace
The next day, under the leadership of Prime Minister Tai Shuhong, Lin Haotian followed the civil and military officials and entered the palace to pay homage to Zhao Yu, the king of gold.
The Imperial Palace, which integrates the country's politics, economy and culture, is the core of the whole country in the true sense, and also symbolizes the nobility and dignity of the imperial power.
The whole palace is built according to the mountain, the back is the mountain, the front is divided into east, west and south three palace gates, the south palace gate is the main gate of the palace, on weekdays, the ministers go to the morning court is also the south palace gate.
A distance of 500 meters along the main gate is the main hall where the Son of Heaven and the ministers discuss on weekdays, which is called the Taihe Palace.
Taihe Hall is located on the pedestal of five meters higher than the horizon, the height of the hall is about four zhang above the flat ground, looking at it from afar, the whole hall is like a castle suspended in the air, tall and majestic, breathtaking.
In front of the Taihe Palace, there are three spacious aisles, the stairs that enter the main hall from the ground, the aisles are divided into three layers, the steps under the feet are all made of marble, the bluestone railings on both sides are carved with the patterns of the flying phoenix, the coiled dragon unicorn and other sacred beasts on the railings.
The grandeur of the palace is truly extraordinary!
Along the way, Lin Haotian also secretly looked around, and couldn't help but nod his head in his heart.
As they got closer and closer to the Taihe Palace, the guards on both sides gradually increased, looking up, the dense pressure of a piece, the guards were bright and bright, the momentum was like a grandeur, standing in place, not moving, as if a piece of wood carved stone sculptures.
As soon as he walked to the front of the palace gate, guards on both sides immediately stepped forward, raised their eyes and looked Tai Shuhong and Lin Haotian up and down, and then bowed down in unison, and said respectfully: "Prime Minister!" As for Lin Haotian behind him, although the guards didn't recognize him, no one dared to ask more because they came with Tai Shuhong.
When Tai Shuhong and Lin Haotian entered the main hall, except for Zhao Yu, the king of gold, all the other ministers were present, of course, including the general Du Qing.
Tai Shuhong and Du Qing, one is the prime minister and the other is the general, the former is in charge of national government affairs, and the latter is in charge of national military affairs.
The two of them each represent Shili, and they are both important ministers of the court, although they secretly compete with each other and have many contradictions, but in front of everyone, they still pretend to be extremely close.
Seeing Tai Shuhong coming, Du Qing, who was originally at the forefront of the team, immediately stepped forward quickly, grabbed his hand, and the two first greeted each other, and then walked forward hand in hand.
Seeing the contrived appearance of the two, Lin Haotian, who had been following Tai Shuhong, almost didn't laugh out loud.
On the surface, they are smiling happily, but in fact, they can't wait to stab each other a few times, which is probably the truest portrayal of Tai Shuhong and Du Qing at this moment.
The two chatted while walking, until they reached the forefront of the team, and the two of them let go of their hands 'reluctantly', and it was only at this time that Du Qing turned his gaze to Lin Haotian behind Tai Shuhong, and after carefully looking him up and down, Du Qing pointed at Lin Haotian with his finger, and pretended to be surprised: "Uncle Tai, who is this?"
"Oops!" Uncle Tai Hong slapped his head and said apologetically with an apologetic face: "Look at my memory, I actually forgot to introduce it to Brother Du! This is Lin Haotian who the king wants to summon, I don't know if Brother Du has ever heard of it?"
The old man is deliberately angry with Du Qing!
Lin Haotian killed Du Qing's own nephew, and he is now innocent, it can be said that the two are not wearing the sky together, this Lin Haotian's trip to Wancheng is also the result of Du Qing's strong request, everyone in the Manchu Dynasty knows about it, how can he not hear it?
Du Qingqiang suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a somewhat unnatural face: "Hehe, Uncle Tai laughed, now inside and outside the court, who doesn't know that there is a young hero on the border, how can the old man not hear of it?"
When speaking, Du Qing's tone was gloomy, and his eyes were always firmly fixed on Lin Haotian behind Tai Shuhong, if his gaze could turn into a sharp arrow, Lin Haotian would now have several more holes in his body.
After hearing this, Lin Haotian put on an indifferent look, and arched his hand and said, "Master Du has a good reputation!"
Glancing at Lin Haotian deeply, Du Qing said meaningfully: "It's nothing for young people to be in the limelight, but if they go too far, I'm afraid they will suffer a big loss at that time!"
Lin Haotian sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he still pretended to be taught, and said with a smile: "Thank you to the Great General's Church, you should keep it in mind in the future!"
"You ......" Du Qing wanted to say something more, but at this time, the chief steward in front of the hall shouted loudly: "The king has arrived-"
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man in his early forties, slightly fat, and full of red light slowly sat on the dragon chair in front of the main hall, surrounded by several guards.
Looking up, the person on the chair was wearing a golden crown, a golden brocade robe, a gold belt around his waist, and gold silk boots under his feet.
The middle-aged man in front of him is none other than Zhao Yu, the king of gold!
In a moment, the civil and military officials led by Tai Shuhong and Du Qing invariably stopped talking, and the needles in the whole hall could be heard, and then, everyone looked straight, and walked to the center of the hall in unison, and bowed forward: "Long live the king! Long live!
Zhao Yu sat on the king's chair, bowed slightly, waved his hand and said, "Everyone, please get up." ”
"King Xie!" everyone got up and stepped aside.
Zhao Yu's eyes were good, and he noticed Lin Haotian behind Tai Shuhong in the crowd at a glance, he raised his right arm, pointed to Lin Haotian's position, and asked, "Prime Minister, who is standing behind you?"
Uncle Tai Hong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Back to the king, this person is Lin Haotian!" he said, not forgetting to glance at Lin Haotian again and again.
Lin Haotian is so smart, when he saw Tai Shuhong's expression, he hurriedly came out of the team, his face was straight, he knelt on half his knees, and arched his hand and said: "The last general, Lin Haotian, see the king!"
Lin Haotian is the commander of the border pass corps, and in terms of military rank, he is second only to the position of general, so it is reasonable to call himself the last general.
Zhao Yu looked Lin Haotian up and down with interest, and said with some uncertainty: "You are Lin Haotian?"
"It's the villain!"
Zhao Yu waved his hand: "Get up and speak!"
"King Xie!" Lin Haotian replied, got up quickly, and retreated to his original position to stand.
Du Yu asked again, "I heard that you killed Du Yu?"
"Yes!" Lin Haotian cleared his throat and explained: "Du Yu is a border guard, but he doesn't want to serve the country, and secretly colludes with the Red Country to collect the enemy's property......"
"Fart!" Before Lin Haotian finished speaking, Du Qing couldn't help but walk out of the team, pointed at Lin Haotian, and said with a blue and white face: "You... You're spewing blood!"
"Let him finish speaking!" Zhao Yu said in a deep voice with a displeased face.
"Yes!" Seeing that Zhao Yu was angry, Du Qing didn't dare to say more, and after glaring at Lin Haotian viciously, he retreated to the team.
Lin Haotian glanced at Du Qing with a smile and continued: "Later, thanks to General Yu and I seeing through Du Yu's conspiracy in time, the Shuangfeng City side was able to be preserved.
Zhao Yu nodded and said, "You said that Du Yu was rebellious and rebellious, but there is evidence?"
Saying that, Lin Haotian took out a piece of letter paper from his arms and said, "This is a secret letter written by Du Yu to the commander of the Red Army, please take a look at it!"
The letter paper was taken by the guards in front of the palace and passed to Zhao Yu's hands, at this time, the civil and military officials were also able to reach their heads, and their eyes looked at the letter paper in Zhao Yu's hand.
Zhao Yu unfolded the letter, the more he read it, the more ugly his face became, and when the whole letter was finished, he threw the letter down and shouted: "Du Qing, what's going on?"
Du Qing walked out of the team tremblingly, picked up the letter, and when he read the contents of the letter clearly, his face suddenly changed, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, and said in a loud voice: "King, the old minister is wronged! The old minister is wronged! The old minister really doesn't know anything about this matter!"
"Now that the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say? Du Yu is your own nephew, and it was you who recommended him to the king to go to the border in the first place, but now Du Yu is collaborating with the enemy and plotting rebellion, how can you make this king believe in you again?"
After Du Qing heard this, sweat rained down, shouted that he was wronged, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, but when his eyes subconsciously swept to the letter, his eyes suddenly lit up, he raised his head, and said loudly: "King, this letter is suspicious!"
