Above the court.

Yun Huang sat on the dragon chair and looked coldly at the civil and military officials in the hall.

Mingyue, Qingfeng, Tang Di and other loyal ministers stood aside in confusion.

Seven or eight officials, including Li Chen and Li Shen, were taken off their official hats and uniforms, and were escorted by the guards to their knees on the ground, shouting to the sky and grabbing the ground one by one, shouting that they were wronged.

"Your Majesty! You can't kill innocents indiscriminately, my Li brothers are loyal to Your Majesty, and have never had a heart of disobedience, wronged, wronged! ”

"Your Majesty! The old minister can testify for Li Shilang! Since he served as a servant of the ministry, he has been dreaming of sleeping at night, working tirelessly, leading by example, and doing everything himself. Such a minister is really rare, Your Majesty think twice! ”

"Your Majesty, don't be close to the villain and far away from the virtuous minister!"

"Your Majesty, Weichen and several adults are officials in the same dynasty, and they have always put state affairs first, each fulfilling his duties, conscientious, never daring to slack off, not seeking no merit, but seeking no fault......"

……

Clever tongues like springs, covering each other.

Spit lotus flowers in their mouths, and show their loyalty.

Yunhuang listened quietly, pursed his red lips, and remained silent.

"Your Majesty! What do you mean? For such a plain reason, let people treat the lower officials like this, and the lower officials are really resentful! ”

Li Chen said, his voice choked, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Yes! Your Majesty, you should always give your ministers a reason to condemn themselves, the court is not a child's play! ”

"Your Majesty, if you listen to it partially, you will be dark, and if you listen to it at the same time, you can't just listen to the words of Captain Ming!"

"Yes, Your Majesty must not listen to slander, wronged good people, and chilled the hearts of his courtiers!"

……

Mingyue raised her eyes to look at Yunhuang, and stopped talking.

Qingfeng glanced at Tang Di, Tang Di's eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his mouth, and his mouth looked at his heart.

Yun Huang stood up, his eyes that were once agile were like cold ice at this time, and his body was shrouded in an awe-inspiring momentum that was not angry and self-threatening, and could not be violated.

The other officials were still talking about it, but when they saw this, they only felt that inexplicable coercion was coming to their faces, and they all shut up.

Li Chen, Li Shen and other officials who were escorted to the ground looked at each other and did not dare to say anything.

Yun Huang glanced at the audience, "You said enough?" Listen to the widow for a while? ”

Li Chen and the others were all unconvinced.

Yun Huang said slowly: "Now the new room is dead, Da Chen is waiting to be revived, the demon girl is in charge, and the chaos is in trouble." The context of the court is martial and martial, and the black smoke is miasma. The people of the world are complaining and unfair. I believe that all of you have heard about this, and all of you have seen it, and you are all filled with righteous indignation and share the same hatred for the enemy. This official loves and accommodates the public, and sincerely invites everyone to gather here to seek a common national policy, to kill demons and drive away the enemy, to restore the Chen room, and to raise a great cause together. ”

When Li Chen, Li Shen and others heard this, they were stunned and stiffened.

Yun Huang sneered, "Do you want to listen to another paragraph?" ”

Mingyue and the others were also very surprised, and their eyes at Li Chen and the others became thoughtful.

Yun Huang said with a painted voice: "This king has long heard that Li Shilang is both wise and brave, bold and majestic, and when I see it today, it is not a lie." In addition, Ling Brother is like a tiger with wings, and he will be able to dismantle the jealous Ming Taiwei and replace him. ”

As soon as Yunhuang's voice fell, the hall was shocked.

Li Chen's face was as pale as earth, and he no longer had the arrogance of the strong words just now, and his whole body shook like chaff.

Li Shen was even more frightened, and he didn't dare to breathe.

"Lord Li Chen, Lord Li, has you been worshiped as a general? It's gratifying, it's just that you, the general, are only afraid that it will be difficult to see the light of day, and your ambition will be difficult to reward! ”

Yun Huang stared at Li Chen, with a cold face.

Li Chen sat slumped on the ground, beads of sweat rolling down like beans.

When Li Shen heard this, he was so frightened that he kowtowed like pounding garlic, and pointed at Li Chen and defended loudly: "Your Majesty spares your life!" This is not the original intention of the lower officials, it is really the brother who has repeatedly coerced and enticed, and the subordinates have to ...... the official feelings."

When the other criminals saw that the matter had been exposed, they did not dare to refute it anymore, and each begged for mercy.

Yun Huang shouted: "The crime of bullying the king, fornicating with the enemy country, plotting rebellion and disobedience, and several crimes at the same time, how can there be so many excuses?" Outrageous! As the official of the court of Da Chen, you should be the food of the king and the matter of loyalty to the king, but you eat inside and outside, help the abuse, ignore the safety of the people of Da Chen, and even do not hesitate to leak the military defense plan for personal gain. Say to yourselves, should the widow show your head to the public, or should you divide the five horses? ”

The Manchu Dynasty ministers were silent.

Mingyue and the others were secretly frightened, Li Chen, Li Shen and others were usually very deeply hidden, all of them were kind-hearted, left and right, and never showed the dew, but they didn't expect to have such ambitions.

The big war is imminent, fortunately, Yunhuang strikes first, if he waits until the confrontation with the two armies of Western Chu, Li Chen, as the left servant of the ministry, if he abuses his power, Han Qingyong will be able to prevent it!

Li Chen knew that he could not escape the blame, and said on the face of the landlord: "Your Majesty, the guilty minister knows that he is wrong, I hope Your Majesty will read the sincere repentance of the criminal minister, and spare the minister's life!" The sinner must atone for his sins, smear his liver and brains, and never give up! ”

When the others saw Li Chendu's appearance, they all relented and begged for mercy.

Yun Huang said: "If you don't use it for a hundred times if you are unfaithful, you can avoid the death penalty, and you will not escape the living crime." ”

When Li Chen and the others heard this, they were all stunned, and they all thanked them for not killing as if they had been amnesty.

"The widow will not kill you, and he will not embarrass your people for the time being. If you bravely kill the enemy, you can redeem the guilt and reward the merits; If the old state is re-sprouted, the military aircraft will be leaked, and the car will be killed when it is cracked, and its sect will be destroyed! ”

"Town, town?"

Li Chen and the others were stunned.

Everyone turned around, but saw two people walking in from outside the hall, one was Chen Zhendong, the town king who was rumored to have been poisoned by Su Wanrou, and the other was Wang Yan, a general who was a wizard of the previous dynasty but lived in seclusion in the countryside.

As soon as the two of them entered the hall, the quiet hall was like a flat lake that had been thrown into the stone, setting off a sound of discussion.

Yun Huang said loudly: "Although the king of Zhen is a relative of the emperor, he should be guilty of the same crime as the common people if he violates the law of the country. This time, the king of the town will not die, and he will not escape punishment. Like you, you took the lead and made meritorious contributions. But the heroes can't be without a leader, so for the time being, the king of Zhenzhen is the general of Dingyuan, can you have any objections? ”

Mingyue said, "Your Majesty is wise! ”

Qingfeng, Tang Di and others also supported it.

How dare Li Chen and others have objections?

Chen Zhendong was not punished, they were stained with it, if Chen Zhendong was executed as a relative of the emperor, how could they still live? What's more, Chen Zhendong was still an official and worshipped general, they performed well, and there is also hope that the official will be reinstated.

is like being put to death and then reborn, Li Chen and the others not only had no objections, but turned their sorrow into joy and secretly rejoiced.

After Chen Zhendong knelt on the ground to thank him, he turned to look down at everyone and said in a deep voice: "In the past, this king worked with the kings of heaven and was a minister in the same hall. Because of the difference of a thought, he made a big mistake, and he should be punished for his crimes, but fortunately His Majesty forgave him, and he was able to survive for the time being. Today, in accordance with His Majesty's edict, he will lead the people to resist the enemy, and he is willing to work with all the monarchs to unite and settle the Chu army as soon as possible, and return to the court. ”

Chen Zhendong was so honest, how dare Li Chen and the others disobey, and immediately said in unison: "Obey the orders of General Yuan!" ”

Chen Zhendong's eyes were hot, he turned around and glanced at Yun Huang, and once again bowed to the ground to thank the emperor.

When he was helped up by Yunhuang himself, Chen Zhendong's eyes were full of tears.

At that moment, in his heart, which had been hazy for more than 20 years, there was finally a bright sunshine shining in, dispelling the darkness of hatred and melting the cold ice......

Yun Huang breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Wang Yan, and was about to speak, but he didn't want to, Wang Yan stepped forward, looking like he was not afraid of death, "Your Majesty, the grass people have not practiced military affairs for a long time, and it has been nearly ten years so far, how can they return to the dynasty as officials?" Please Your Majesty find another master, and the grass people will retire! ”

After speaking, Wang Yan turned around and left.

"The general stays!"

Yun Huang shouted.
