Chapter 115: Confiscation of military power

There is no shortage of new things in Dingjing. {οΌŒγ€‚

But if there is any movement yesterday, it will immediately spread all over the sky on the next day. If a famous person is implicated, it will naturally be talked about for three days and three nights.

Some of these things are regarded as hilarious jokes, but there are also those who are genuinely unworthy of the people in the discussion.

In today's excitement, the person who is talking about it is the mighty general who is in the limelight in the Ming and Qi dynasties.

Ping the Japanese Kou, fight the Huns, fight in the northwest all year round, do not take credit, do not be proud, have great military achievements, and defend the country. It's about the Shen family.

Since the old general Shen, the Shen family has won prestige among the people of Ming Qi by virtue of their outstanding exploits. It's a pity that among the three sons of General Shen, only the eldest Shen Xin inherited his mantle and continued to follow the path of a military attachΓ©. Fortunately, the tiger father has no dogs, Shen Xin did not live up to the prestige of the mighty general, and even Shen Xin's sister-in-law Shen Qiu is also a brave young general on the battlefield.

Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers. Shen Xin has no shelf in the army, and he rushes to the forefront in the war, and the combination with Luo Xueyan, the tiger girl of the general, is known as a generation of legends. The people of Ming Qi respect Shen Xin from the bottom of their hearts, if there is anything bad, it is that Shen Xin's daughter has not inherited the excellence of her parents at all, but is a straw bag.

However, even if the concubine is a straw bag, when it comes to Shen Xin, the people always support it.

But now, when a hat on the king is buttoned down, the people are dumbfounded.

It's not a petty fight, it's not a house problem, it's a bully at the beginning, and it can be sentenced to a felony if you are not careful. Early in the morning, officials of the imperial court surrounded the gate of the Shen Mansion, supposedly to collect evidence. The people only knew that Shen Xin had committed the crime of deceiving the king, but they didn't know what the crime was and how he deceived the saint.

"How could General Shen bully the king, what a good person. ”

"Yes, last time my child was naughty and startled Mrs. Shen's horse, Mrs. Shen not only didn't blame, but also apologized to us. Such a good person, Your Majesty is not mistaken"

"Hey, what's wrong, I heard that this time it's an ironclad matter, and the evidence is there. Someone whispered: "Although I don't know what it is, anyway, I heard that it was General Shen who was personally participated by His Royal Highness King Ding." ”

"His Royal Highness the King Ding"

"Yes, you think, His Royal Highness will not be a fake. Maybe it was because Miss Shen Wu once loved His Royal Highness King Ding and was humiliated, and General Shen did something sorry for His Majesty in order to vent his anger for his daughter. ”

"Ah, it's possible to say this, poor General Shen's family was miserable by that concubine. ”

The voices of these people talking are not low, Shen Miao stands at the door of the mansion and can hear it clearly. The people of the palace stood at the gate of the mansion so that the officers and soldiers could go in and search. Shen Yue pretended to be scared and hid behind Chen Ruoqiu, looking at Shen Miao sympathetically: "Fifth sister, how can these people say this about what your uncle did, what does it have to do with you?"

Shen Miao looked at those fierce officers and soldiers coldly, but when she heard this, she smiled. Once blind, he was branded as "the straw bag of the king of admiration" for the rest of his life, which is really disgusting.

Seeing that Shen Miao didn't speak, Shen Yue thought that she had nothing to say, and there was an instant smugness in her eyes, but she stood silent. After making sure that Shen Xin would not affect her, Old Madam Shen put her mind at ease, put on a posture of being a housewife with a good family style, and angrily reprimanded: "How can the old family do such a thing against the king, my Shen family has been loyal and good for generations, and there are no such shameless people, it is simply a shameless person to lose the face of the Shen family, if the general is still there, he will not look at the old family's corrupt style."

When Shen Miao heard this, her heart moved, and she looked at Old Madam Shen and said: "What is grandmother talking about, my father is also a member of the Shen family, and the Shen family and my father are all connected, how can I not care about my father at this time, when my father was rewarded and praised by His Majesty, didn't my grandmother still say that it was the blessing of the Shen family to have this man." The words spilled out of the water, and my grandmother forgot about it this time."

When the people who were watching the excitement outside heard this, their eyes shot at Old Madam Shen with a "swish".

When the mighty general had outstanding military achievements in the past, and when he was rewarded by the saints, Old Madam Shen didn't say that. This is a family, it should be both prosperous and lossy, why does this old lady Shen look like she can only share hardships with wealth and nobility As soon as she sees that others are in trouble, she can't wait to draw a clear line, how can she get it

Old Madam Shen also realized that everyone was not looking at her well, and she was annoyed and angry for a while, but she didn't know how to answer, so she had to look at Chen Ruoqiu on the side.

Shen Gui and Shen Wan both went to the court, and only Chen Ruoqiu could take charge here. Chen Ruoqiu said with a smile: "Fifth sister, where is the old lady what you say." The old lady was just angry, you know, our Shen family has always been an upright person, and that bullied the king. If the old general knows underground, he will blame your father. Your father did such a thing to make the Shen family so self-contained in the future."

When Mrs. Shen saw Chen Ruoqiu's help, her foundation became harder, and it became more pleasing to the eye when she looked at Chen Ruoqiu. nodded and said, "Yes, your father made a mistake, and no one is allowed to say it."

Shen Dongling and Aunt Wan stood aside, they had no power to speak, so they just watched quietly and didn't speak.

Shen Miao said: "In this way, grandmother doesn't want to make a clear connection with my father and expel my father from the Shen family."

As soon as she said this, Chen Ruoqiu said badly, and before she could stop it, she saw that Old Madam Shen's eyes lit up, and she was filled with righteous indignation: "If you are so unscrupulous, you will naturally be expelled from the Shen family."

"Grandmother really wants to be so ruthless, my father is still in prison now, and grandmother doesn't help around" Shen Miao lowered her eyes.

Seeing Shen Miao's appearance of bowing her head and showing weakness, Old Madam Shen suddenly felt a burst of relief in her heart. A few days ago, I was forced to do everything badly by the big house, and the grievances in my heart were swept away at this moment. The more cheerful she was, the more righteous her tone became, and said: "The Shen family has been loyal and good for generations, but no matter how ruthless the infamy is, the old body has to make this decision for the master, and such a person cannot enter the ancestral hall of my Shen family." From today onwards, Shen Xin's house will be expelled from the Shen family."

Old Madam Shen said it happily, but she didn't see Chen Ruoqiu's discolored face. Although it is natural to draw a clear relationship, it is really stupid for Old Madam Shen to do it so clearly. Such a posture fell in the eyes of the people, and the people were not stupid, and everyone would not stand on the side of the Shen Mansion.

Thinking of this, Chen Ruoqiu smiled and said to Shen Miao: "Fifth sister, the old lady doesn't mean that either. It's just that I was angry with my eldest brother, so I said this at this time. Fifth sister, when the old lady is angry in a few days, it won't be like this. ”

Shen Yue didn't understand why his mother said this, so let Old Madam Shen drive Shen Miao out, isn't it okay Now Shen Xin and they are all charged with bullying the king, that is, in the end, relying on the merits of these years, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inevitable, and the life must be extremely depressed. Kicking out this depressed family, maybe they don't even have a place to stay, and I feel happy when I think about it.

"The third aunt doesn't need to say it. Shen Miao said loudly: "Since the old lady values the lintel of the Shen family so much, and doesn't even put family affection in her eyes, what am I afraid of." It's better to separate from each other, one separate and two wide, and everyone will be happy, so as not to damage the lintel of the Shen family. She said sarcastically, and said: "It's just that it's a little difficult to move for a while, and when the military master finishes searching, I will pack my luggage and move out as soon as my father and mother come back." Never tarnishing the Shen family again."

The anger she said looked like an arrogant girl had been forced to say nothing, but when she listened carefully, there was no room for turning around.

Shen Xin and his wife are both people who love their daughter, if they know their kung fu to enter the palace, their daughter will be forced to the point of almost being swept out of the house by the Shen family, I am afraid that a general account will be indispensable.

The surrounding people were in an uproar, but they never expected to see such a good show here. It's just that Old Madam Shen's behavior is really unpleasant, but the fifth lady of the Shen family, who is called a straw bag, is beautiful and lovely, but she was forced into such a situation, and she couldn't help but feel sympathy and favored Shen Miao's side.

Chen Ruoqiu was secretly frightened, looking at Shen Miao and not speaking, it was too late to say anything now. Arguing in front of so many people, within half a day, the capital of Manding will know about it. Although it is said that the Shen family and Shen Xin have a clear relationship now, it is the benefit of the Shen family, but Chen Ruoqiu has a faint feeling of unease in his heart.

Shen Miao has been leading everyone's noses. Whether it was for Old Madam Shen to say about expelling Shen Xin from the Shen family, or now everyone's sympathy was on Shen Miao's side. But why did Shen Miao do this, why did it seem like Shen Miao was using what Old Lady Shen said to urge Shen Xin to get rid of the Shen family

Chen Ruoqiu couldn't help but think of the big house breaking up a few days ago, and Mrs. Shen was naturally reluctant to let the big house go with the treasure, but Shen Xin and his wife decided not to change it, and said at that time that they would go to see other houses, who knew that this would happen. I thought that the matter of separating the family would not be over, but I didn't expect that it would be brought up again.

And in front of everyone's eyes, it will not be possible to regret it in the future.

Old Madam Shen was dissatisfied with Chen Ruoqiu helping Shen Miao intercede, but later saw that Shen Miao didn't know what to do, and she didn't say anything about her relationship with the Shen family, so she was satisfied. snorted coldly, and no matter how contemptuous the eyes of the people outside were, he went in with the girl next to him. Chen Ruoqiu hesitated, and also led Shen Yue to follow in.

Aunt Wan also wanted to follow up, but saw Shen Dongling let go of her hand and walked straight to her side.

"Fifth sister. Shen Dongling called her.

This seems to be the first time Shen Dongling called her after leaving the yard, Shen Miao lowered her eyes and replied lightly: "Third sister." ”

"Fifth sister, don't worry," Shen Dongling looked soft and weak, but her smile was soft: "Uncle must be fine." Uncle is not a person who will deceive the king, and things will eventually come to light. ”

Shen Miao's expression remained unchanged and said, "Thank you, Third Sister." ”

Shen Dongling smiled, turned around and walked to Aunt Wan, who was stunned, and pulled Aunt Wan to the door.

"Girl," said the stunned stinger, "what do you mean by Miss Three?"

Shen Miao's arrogant fuss almost showed that the relationship with the rest of the Shen Mansion had broken down. This Shen Dongling came to show goodwill, so she was not afraid that Old Madam Shen would blame her

Shen Miao didn't say a word, looked at the back of Shen Dongling and Aunt Wan leaving, and shook her head thoughtfully.

In the door, seeing that there was no one around, Aunt Wan whispered: "Ling'er, what's going on with you, how dare you show favor to Miss Five, if the old lady sees it, turn around and tell your father." "Shen Gui didn't like the big house, Shen Dongling rushed to please the big house, Shen Gui would be happy.

"Don't worry, auntie. Shen Dongling smiled: "They can't fight the fifth sister." ”

"What" Aunt Wan was stunned.

Shen Dongling pursed her lips and dragged Aunt Wan forward: "Don't ask, go back." ”

There was such a big thing in the Shen family, and even the people were shocked, naturally, the previous dynasty was quite angry at this moment.

On the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Wen Hui sat on the dragon chair, his face was so gloomy that he could drip water. Looking at the courtiers in the hall, he threw the fold in his hand into the face of the nearest minister.

The minister was hit in the face, but he didn't dare to say a word, and immediately knelt down.

Shen Xin and his wife and Shen Qiu have not left since they entered the palace, and they don't know what happened outside, but the courtiers know that Shen Xin and his wife were obviously detained by Emperor Wen Hui. Why do you want to detain the courtier, that is also something you don't have to think about, this courtier has a problem, and the emperor wants to clean him up.

Such a simple truth, the courtiers all understand. In general, it's good to be silent. But today, Emperor Wen Hui's expression was a little strange.

"Ping Nanbo, you come," Emperor Wen Hui said.

Su Yu thought of what Su Mingfeng said to him last night, and he no longer hesitated, took out a letter from his sleeve, stepped forward and respectfully handed it to the father-in-law beside the emperor, and the father-in-law presented it to Emperor Wenhui.

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen also thinks that the mighty general's move is bold and reckless, and he does not take the royal family in his eyes, and asks His Majesty to punish Shen Xin and punish him for the nine clans"

The courtiers who were good friends with Su Yu were okay, and those courtiers who didn't have much friendship with Su Yu's political views on weekdays were very surprised when they heard this. For a long time, Ping Nanbo has always been gentle in the court, and he can be regarded as a good person. Who knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would want Shen Xin's life, and this was too heavy.

Emperor Wen Hui's hand shook as he took the fold, and his eyes stared at Su Yu like a torch.

Su Yu held his head high, looking impassioned.

"Your Majesty," Lin Anhou Xie Ding, who had been silent at the other end, also said: "Shen Xin supports the army and respects himself, and even his majesty's orders dare to resist outside, but I am afraid that he has already had the intention of rebellion, and Weichen also agrees with what Master Su said, punishing the nine clans of the Shen family."

Everyone's eyes looked at Xie Ding and Su Yu. Everyone knows that the Su Xie family has always had a great relationship, but the Shen family is very different from these two families. Now that Shen Xin has an accident, Su Xie and his family are grasshoppers on a rope, and they must jump up and step on it a few times before they are willing.

Emperor Wen Hui's gaze was cloudy.

Originally, he was extremely satisfied with the evidence sent by Fu Xiuyi. was already eyeing the Shen family's piece of fat, but he couldn't find a chance. Fu Xiuyi's evidence, no matter what, at least to recover the Shen family's military power, is an extremely simple matter. Who knew that early this morning, when he went to the court, he said this, and the courtiers actually said that they would severely punish Shen Xin.

Shen Xin has been fighting in the northwest all the year round, and his friendship with these courtiers in the court is not very deep, Emperor Wen Hui has long expected that there are many people who look at Shen Xin wrong, but he did not expect that there will be so much. And there are very few people who intercede for Shen Xin.

The emperor's heart is full of suspicion, if there are many courtiers who intercede for Shen Xin, Emperor Wen Hui will probably suspect that Shen Xin is very close to the courtiers in private. However, if there are more people who impeach Shen Xin, Emperor Wen Hui will be more at ease with Shen Xin, a courtier with a rebellious heart will not set up so many enemies for himself.

If the impeachment of Shen Xin by these courtiers only made Emperor Wen Hui hesitate, the "Nine Clans" of Ping Nanbo and Lin Anhou made Emperor Wen Hui suspicious.

The Shen family, the Su family, and the Xie family are all thorns in Emperor Wenhui's heart. It's not that these courtiers are, it's just that the prestige and strength of these big clans alone will make Emperor Wenhui sleep unsteadily. The couch on the side does not allow others to sleep soundly, and Emperor Wenhui does not allow the existence of a family that is above the imperial power.

And the Su family and the Xie family are ropes screwed together, but fortunately, the Shen family and these two families are incompatible, otherwise they will really become Emperor Wen Hui's henchmen. If it is really according to what the Su Xie family said, the nine clans of the Shen family will be punished, and there will be no power in the Ming Qi country that can compete with the Su Xie family. Let the Su Xie family grow, and his dragon chair will be more unstable.

For the first time, Emperor Wen Hui felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger. He just wanted to take back part of Shen Xin's military power, and the Shen family could still balance Su Xie if he kept it, but now, there was no one willing to speak for Shen Xin, and Emperor Wen Hui only felt that his brain was in pain.

He slowly asked: "Zhu Jiu Clan"

Such a question, generally speaking, the courtiers can see that His Majesty's expression is wrong, but Xie Ding doesn't know what's wrong today, so he actually stiffens his neck and says, "Yes"

Emperor Wen Hui closed his eyes, and when he looked at Xie Ding again, he seemed to be looking at his wolf ambition through Xie Ding's skin.

Su Yu was a little worried, but he didn't show it at all on his face, and he still looked like he felt that what Xie Ding said was quite reasonable.

Finally, a young general came out and said: "Although General Shen is willful and reckless this time, his sin is not to death, and he has also made great contributions to the imperial court earlier, but he can atone for his sins." Your Majesty is benevolent, and I also hope to remember that I have fought on the battlefield in the Shen family army for many years, and I will protect my family and defend the country. ”

This young general has a good relationship with Shen Xin, probably because the situation here is unfavorable to Shen Xin, and finally he can't see it and say something for Shen Xin.

Emperor Wen Hui has been waiting for the person who said this, but Shen Xin didn't know if it was because his popularity was too bad, but no one spoke. As soon as the young general spoke, Emperor Wen Hui's eyebrows widened, and he said: "What Aiqing said is right, although General Shen is guilty this time, he still made meritorious deeds in the past. ”

"Your Majesty, by all means" Su Yu hurriedly knelt on the ground: "General Shen can even do something to bully the king, I don't know what will happen in the future"

Xie Ding also hurriedly said: "It is Your Majesty, think twice"

The more the two of them said this, the more suspicious Emperor Wen Hui felt. didn't look at these two people, and said to the young general, or to the Manchu Dynasty: "When General Shen was alive, he also accompanied the birth and death of the emperor. The Shen family has been loyal and good for generations, and the mighty general Shen Xin was also extremely brave in the past. Shen Xin's family is so innocent"

"Your Majesty is wise. The young general quickly knelt down and said.

Emperor Wen Hui waved his hand and said: "It's just that Shen Xin is like this, I still have to punish him, pass the order, take back the Shen family army tiger talisman, and punish Shen Xin for one year, the Shen family army only allocates the front part for him to order, and the others are merged into the Imperial Forest Army."

Everyone gasped, and their eyes were a little strange.

Saying that Emperor Wen Hui was cruel, he still did not hurt the lives of the Shen family. It can be said that Emperor Wen Hui is gentle, and he was going to take the tiger talisman at the beginning. Tiger Fu ordered the three armies, and for a general, being taken away by someone took away the Tiger Fu meant that the soldier lost his life on the battlefield.

And the front part of the Shen family army is just some inconsequential cooking soldiers and the like, but the serious Shen family army has been filled into the Royal Forest Army, that is to say, the troops that Shen Xin has cultivated for so many years have all been used as wedding clothes for the royal family

The ministers have relatives in their hearts, no wonder Emperor Wen Hui said so generously, his feelings have grasped the lifeblood of others, Shen Xin is escaped, and this mighty general is only an empty shell, what deterrent power is there. Keeping the reputation of the Shen family is just to balance it with other clans.

After Emperor Wen Hui finished speaking, he waved his hand a little boredly, and said, "Xia Chao" turned around and brushed his sleeves away. And with his words, it must not be long before Shen Xin and his wife and Shen Qiu who were under house arrest can be released from the palace, but at that time, Shen Xin and his wife were deprived of their military power, and they didn't know if they could come out happily.

Emperor Wen Hui brushed his sleeves away, leaving only the courtiers who looked at each other.

No one expected that this vigorous event would be handled so simply, it can be said that it is simple and quietly to become a bare-bones commander, Shen Xin will not scold his mother angrily.

Su Yu patted the soil on his knees, stood up, and happened to see Xie Ding also tidying up his clothes, he walked over and approached Xie Ding, and said in a low voice: "What happened to you just now, why did you suddenly speak"

Although Su Yu got Su Mingfeng's words and agreed to join Shen Xin, he didn't want to involve his friend in this troubled water after all. The situation faced by the Xie family is more complicated than his, one is not good, it has affected the Xie family, Su Yu really blames himself to death. So Su Yu told his colleagues who had a friendship with him about this, but he didn't tell Xie Ding, but he didn't expect Xie Ding to follow his words today, and he was almost angered by Emperor Wen Hui.

Xie Ding shook his head: "As soon as you said that, I knew that you were playing with other ideas, since you want to help Shen Xin, I will help by the way, but just to help you." "Xie Ding is an old fox who has been in the court for many years, and compared to Shen Xin, who only knows how to fight, Xie Ding is better at the interests of the DPRK and China. He could see that Su Yu was doing the opposite to help Shen Xin, so he took advantage of the situation to add a fire.

Hearing this, Su Yu was a little helpless. felt that his friend's casual temperament was slapped with Xie Ding's son Xie Jingxing. Thinking of Xie Jingxing, Su Yu was suddenly stunned: "By the way, I heard Ming Feng say that Jing Xing asked for a handsome order, but it's true."

"Ming Feng also knows. Xie Ding shook his head and sighed: "Yes, really." ”

"Jing Xing is not crazy," Su Yu said incredulously: "Northern Xinjiang is not a place to play around. Lao Xie, you can really rest assured"

"What's the use of worrying at me, what's the use of worrying about it. Xie Ding was very helpless: "What he decided, which time was in my control." Now I only hope that he will be safe, and these are all sins that I have created, and only I will pay them back now. ”

"Actually, it's not your fault. Su Yu was a little sad when he heard this, one wrong step and one wrong step, Xie Ding has been tortured for the things of the year over the years, his conscience is uneasy, and his son is not close, as a bystander, he still feels sad, Xie Ding himself thinks about it even more uncomfortable. He diverted the topic: "I heard that the excerpt of Shen Xin's criminal evidence this time was played by the Nine Emperor Princes, why didn't I see him today?"

"It seems that His Majesty sent him to inspect the Ministry of Industry," Xie Ding frowned, "When he knows about this, I don't know what he will think." ”

"What else can you think. Su Yu sneered: "Everything you want is in your pocket, and it doesn't matter if you keep those heads." ”

Seeing Su Yu like this for the first time, Xie Ding was a little surprised and asked, "By the way, you haven't said it yet, why did you suddenly help Shen Xin when you had a friendship with the Shen family?"

Su Yu glanced at the distance, and there was no one around at the moment, so he sighed to Xie Ding in a low voice: "Hey, where is me, it's my son Mingfeng, he said to me at night, now the Shen family is just an opening for His Majesty, and when the Shen family passes, it will inevitably follow my Su family." ”

The affairs of the court spread quickly throughout the palace, and Emperor Wenhui spared the lives of Shen Xin's family, but only gave a withering order in his position, which made the people sigh that the royal family was still very merciful. Not only that, seeing that Emperor Wen Hui was so lenient to Shen Xin, everyone also speculated that Shen Xin's prestige was undiminished, and he had a lot of weight in the royal heart, and it was not as bad as the previous rumors.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. The people don't understand, but the officials can see it clearly, the Shen family, which has no military power, is like a toothless tiger, with no appearance, and it has long lost its former majesty.

In Shen Fuzhong, Shen Gui and Shen Wan were talking about the matter, about Shen Xin's result, although it was not as severe as they imagined, but after receiving the military power, the two of them were very satisfied. This means that Shen Xin's reputation and prestige are much lower than theirs.

In the west courtyard, when Shen Miao told the news, Shen Miao had just had lunch.

"Girl," she looked at Shen Miao's leisurely appearance, calmed down a little, and asked, "The girl is not worried at all, is it actually no longer as bad as it is said outside." ”

Shen Miao wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Don't be afraid. It's yours, you can't run, it's not yours, you can't grab it. ”

------Off topic------

Su Yu and Xie Ding are a pair of good friends. ps: Swollen face for a day
