Chapter 382: The Best Candidate
In the main hall, the disc of the bright yellow dragon robe sat on the dragon chair, his expression was full of disbelief, and he glared angrily at the bottom to report to the secret guard, his voice became harsh and sharp.
"How could my son do such a thing! The military salary has always been in his hands, how could he not swallow it sooner or later, but at this juncture, he swallowed it privately! ”
The Emperor's eyes were filled with anger, and he was shocked by this.
He knows the character of Menanqi's son, and he also knows that he has always been insidious and cunning, and he knows that he will repay him, but he also knows his desire for power.
However, all these years ago, he was still spoiling him.
This time, Mo Nanqi went to the border pass, there are elements that he is willing to go, and there are also elements that he secretly pushes the boat to help.
But no matter what, Mo Nanqi is willing to go, and now how can he do the thing of embezzling military salaries.
Although Mo Nanqi is a bit arrogant, he has never done anything to hurt the court and hurt the people!
The emperor was furious, he walked down the stairs quickly to the front of the secret guard, gritted his teeth and asked with red eyes, "Do you have any evidence to prove that he really embezzled military salaries?" ”
The dark guard didn't dare to say anything when he heard it, the emperor was angry, and when he heard others say that his son was not good, he was naturally angry.
As a small secret guard, how dare he refute it with words.
Looking at the appearance of the secret guard who didn't dare to say anything, the emperor laughed angrily, and he flicked his sleeves suddenly, "Okay, if you don't say it, I will naturally have a way to know the truth of the matter!" ”
After that, he calmed down and summoned the Praetorian Guards, and after telling them to go to the border to investigate the matter, he let them leave.
In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed, and in just a few days, the emperor had lost a lot of weight, and his cheeks were sunken.
He sat on the dragon chair, looking at the Praetorian Guards kneeling below, his brows furrowed slightly: "What's the matter, why haven't the Praetorian Guards sent by me come back yet!" ”
"One by one, they all go out and never come back, is it possible that the people I sent out are not waste!"
The emperor glared angrily at the Praetorian Guards, his face was already emaciated, and this glare was as if his eyeballs were about to fall.
The messengers sent out and the Praetorian Guards who investigated all went and never returned, could it be that these people were imprisoned at the border by Mo Nanqi?
The emperor couldn't help but think that as a father, he was also an emperor at the same time.
He knew very well that power would bring people a strong desire, and if the real Mo Nanqi embezzled the military salary, it was self-evident what he wanted to do.
Naturally, for Mo Nanqi, he wants this supreme emperor's position even more.
If this is the case, it will become normal for him to do things like embezzlement of military salaries.
Although the emperor dotes on Mo Nanqi, in the face of power and throne, he will naturally choose power and throne.
Family affection has always been the most insignificant thing for people in the royal family.
The emperor sneered, and faintly doubted Mo Nanqi's fatherly love.
The next day dawned, and the morning was facing inward.
The ministers kept their heads bowed tightly, for fear that when they looked up, they would bump into the angry emperor.
Since the news of the three princes' embezzlement of military salaries has been transmitted back to the capital, people have been talking about this topic day and night, and now they are naturally talking about the court.
There is no shortage of flatterers who love to stand in line in the court, and they are also loyal ministers.
The patriarch of the Three Dynasties turned pale, he took a step forward, raised his hands, and said in a righteous and solemn voice: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the matter of the three princes should immediately send someone to the border pass to find out the truth." ”
"If this is true, please don't look at the relationship between father and son, and severely punish the three princes!"
As soon as these words came out, the emperor's face became even darker, as if ink had been spilled on his face.
When the other courtiers heard this, a group of people who should have hesitated couldn't help but echo after they had a bird.
"Your Majesty, what Master Li Xiang said is extremely true! The border pass is the first line of defense for the soldiers to defend their homes and defend the country, the soldiers are fighting outside all the year round, and I am afraid that there are few opportunities to be at home for so many days throughout the year. ”
"The minister is sure that His Majesty will thoroughly investigate this matter, and he will give an answer to all the soldiers at the border gates!"
The courtiers' words directly pointed the finger at Mo Nanqi, and at the same time, they also used the cold words of the soldiers to directly make the emperor unable to be soft on Mo Nanqi.
It's not surprising that a prince died, at most it was the emperor's sadness as a father.
But if the soldiers of a country are cold, and they want the soldiers to die for themselves, it will become an even more difficult opportunity.
This is also equivalent to giving other countries the opportunity to invade, if the soldiers no longer have trust in the country, if the emperor can no longer gather heartfelt soldiers, then who can defend the country in the matter of the invasion of the country!
When the emperor thought of this, his eyes almost fainted.
Thinking of the true and false nature of Mo Nanqi's embezzlement of military salaries, the anger in his belly burned again!
This rebel, do you really want him, the emperor, to become the target of everyone!
The emperor was furious, he took a deep breath and endured patience, looked at the ministers and was silent for a few seconds, and immediately asked in a cold voice: "In that case, do you have any recommended candidates to go to the border gate?" ”
The road to the border is long, and the environment there is also very arduous, coupled with the uncertainty of the border pass, if the person who goes does not have some ability, I am afraid that this trip will be there is no return.
Once Mo Nanqi really embezzles military salaries, then the people in his team who come to the court will definitely be wiped out directly without giving face.
In this way, the trip became a sword that could fall at any moment.
When the ministers heard this, they fell silent again on the spot.
No one was willing to take this risk, after all, they had to face not only the unknown environment, but also the prince of Monanqi.
If he really did something bad, it would be enough to have the life to arrest him back, but if he didn't do anything bad, the person who went here would definitely become the person resented by the three princes.
At that time, the retribution will not be something they can bear.
At this moment, the eyes of the ministers gradually fell on the tall Mo Nanchen, they paused, and several of them spoke in unison: "Your Majesty, the ministers think that His Royal Highness King Qi is the best candidate to go to the border pass!" ”
Hearing this, the emperor hesitated and glanced at Mo Nanchen a few times.
But it had come to this, and there was no other way for him.
On the other side, An Ruqing finally arrived at the border after traveling day and night.
After learning what Mo Nanqi did at the border pass, An Ruqing directly ordered people to exaggerate and publicize it.
As soon as these words came out, Mo Nanqi, who cared most about reputation, directly messed up and directly exposed his weaknesses in panic, and revealing his stuffing became An Ruqing's expected.
However, there was also one thing that caught An Ruqing off guard.
After she found out that Mo Nanqi was in chaos, she sent out many soldiers to investigate, but unfortunately they were all killed by Mo Nanqi's people.
Just when An Ruqing was disappointed, Minghui brought key evidence, and the two immediately prepared to return to Beijing.
It's just that in life, not everything can be satisfied.
On the second day after An Ruqing left, Mo Nanqi found out that they were leaving, and immediately sent someone to chase them over.
An Ruqing and Minghui dodged back and forth, but they were all colored.
