Chapter 207: One Ring and One Ring
Everyone heard the chill in Mo Xuanchen's words, and they also understood what he said.
The Zhennan Wangfu has guarded the southern border for many years, and has suffered countless casualties in the battle with Nanchu, and the Mo family has worked hard for generations in Shuokang, and even the old prince Mo died on the battlefield when he fought with Nanchu.
Whether it is for the Mo family's loyalty for many years, or for the blood debt of the ancestors.
If Mo Jingyue really colluded with Nan Chu, Mo Xuanchen would definitely not give up.
The courtiers below also seconded the proposal, which meant to ask the king of Zhennan.
Only King Hui said with some hesitation on the side: "If the King of Zhennan really did this, he should be asked, but after all, there is no evidence for this matter, and the whereabouts of the account book are unknown, and the King of Zhennan has military power in his hands, and the army on the border of Shuokang is also in his hands. ”
"The Four Princes are the proof," someone retorted.
King Hui said in a deep voice: "The fourth prince is already a criminal minister now, and what he says may not be able to convince the public, and this time it also involves the flooding of the Lingjiang River. ”
"Your Excellency should also know how many people died after the Lingjiang River burst, and the public resentment outside was already boiling because of the great prince's damage to the embankment, and now there is the matter of the four princes, and the princes of the court have successively acted against the people, and the prestige of the royal family is shaking."
"At this time, if it is said that the four princes colluded with the king of Zhennan to smuggle forbidden objects, and the matter of Dingzhou is also related to the Zhennan Wangfu, what will the people outside think?"
King Hui looked solemn,
"Mo Jingyue is not a person to deal with, if we have that account book in hand, we are naturally not afraid of him, but now the whereabouts of the account book are unknown, and we can't get any human and material evidence."
"If Your Majesty attacks the Zhennan Wangfu just because he is suspicious, Mo Jingyue will definitely not be arrested, if he still remembers his identity, he just quibbles a few words, and he is afraid that he will bite His Majesty after tearing his face, saying that you deliberately blame him for the matter of the four princes, and you are afraid that the Mo family's high achievements will not tolerate the Zhennan Wangfu."
"How dare he?!"
"He even dares to collude with the prince to smuggle, what else is there that he wouldn't dare?"
The expression on Emperor Jing's face changed constantly, and the people below who were clamoring to ask Mo Jingyue just now also stopped.
No one in the south is not blushing, and there are many people who want to take the opportunity to pull down the Mo family to snatch the military power, but King Hui's words are like a basin of cold water pouring them cold.
Mo Jingyue is not the old prince of Mo, nor is he the Mo family before.
He doesn't have the words loyalty and patriotism in his bones at all.
The Mo family guarded the southern border in previous years, although Shuokang was able to be self-sufficient after being classified as a fief, but the Mo family was willing to be controlled and restrained by the imperial court before, and even left the official position of the imperial court supervisor in Shuokang, and obeyed the dispatch of Emperor Jing, but since Mo Jingyue won the throne of Zhennan, the prison army that originally belonged to Emperor Jing died "accidentally", and later the people sent by the imperial court also had accidents one after another.
Mo Jingyue almost became the soil emperor of Shuokang, and even ignored the court for a time, separating the southern border from Daye and ruling separately.
If it weren't for Emperor Jing forcibly taking Mo Xuanchen back to Beijing back then, if it weren't for Mo Xuanchen's position as the prince, and many generals in the south are only loyal to the real Mo family's bloodline, then Mo Jingyue is just the son of the Mo family who claims to be "keeping" the throne for Mo Xuanchen, he may have torn his face with the court.
But even so, Mo Jingyue has been extremely arrogant in these years, not only has he never entered the Hajj, but he has mostly ignored the orders of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, and he regards the southern border as his own territory.
It's not that the court doesn't know that those accidents were Mo Jingyue's hands and feet, but Mo Jingyue doesn't recognize it, and no one can help him.
He maintained a superficial respect for the court, and Emperor Jing was unwilling to force him to rebel and destroy the lives of the people, coupled with Mo Xuanchen's balance in it, so that for so many years, the court and the Zhennan palace have maintained a strange balance, but everyone knows that this balance will be broken as soon as it is poked.
At this time, who dares to be the raft that leads the war?
The hall was extremely quiet, and Mo Xuanchen suddenly spoke: "Actually, there is no need to ask for guilt. ”
Emperor Jing looked at him when he heard this.
Mo Xuanchen pursed his thin lips and said: "My grandfather once said that the descendants of the Mo family were born to guard the rivers and mountains of Daye, and the southern army has always been proud of guarding the border and protecting the people. ”
"After all, the collusion between the fourth prince and the second uncle is only his words, and His Majesty does not believe that he will conspire against the Mo family to destroy the name of loyalty and courage for a hundred years, but it is difficult for everyone in the world to stop, whether it is in the court or in the army, there must be an explanation for this matter, so Your Majesty can summon the second uncle to Beijing and let him confront the four princes in the court."
Emperor Jing was still a little puzzled when he first listened to Mo Xuanchen's words, but after he finished speaking, his expression moved slightly: "What if he refuses to enter Beijing?" ”
"He refuses to enter Beijing, Your Majesty can send someone to escort the four princes to the south, but this is thousands of miles away from the south, and no one can guarantee that something will happen on the way, not to mention that if something happens to the fourth prince, it will inevitably make people think that he is killing people, so he only says rumors outside......"
Mo Xuanchen stood in the middle of the hall, his face revealing a touch of coldness,
"Although my grandfather is dead, the heirs of the Mo family are not dead, whether it is me or those soldiers in the south, they will never tolerate someone ruining the name of the Mo family for a hundred years."
When everyone in the hall heard this, their hearts trembled.
This Mo Xuanchen is so ruthless.
The palace is afraid of Mo Jingyue because he is in the south, unless the army presses the border, His Majesty will not be able to whip it any way, but if according to Mo Xuanchen's intentions, Emperor Jing will tell the world about the matter of the four princes, and the matter of his collusion with Mo Jingyue will also be publicized.
Mo Jingyue either chose to be edicted to enter Beijing to confront the four princes, or he waited for his reputation to be ruined and sat in the name of rebellion.
If he really wants to be the bloodline of the Mo family, it's just that, but the key is that he is just the righteous son of the old prince of Mo, and there is a righteous son of the Mo family in Beijing, once he ruins the reputation of the Mo family, and even ruins the name of the Mo family's loyalty and courage for generations, Mo Xuanchen will ascend to the top in Beijing again.
I'm afraid that the southern army will be completely chaotic, and those who are not convinced that Mo Jingyue is guarding the throne of Zhennan for Mo Xuanchen will also directly turn against Mo Jingyue.
Whether he came to the capital or not, Mo Xuanchen cut off his way out.
Those people in the hall were a little more jealous when they looked at Mo Xuanchen.
This prince of Zhennan has always been ill and not very visible in front of people before, and no one has ever paid too much attention to it when he suddenly made an accident before, even if His Majesty let him enter the North Town Fusi to manage Jinlinwei, most of the people outside just said that he was lucky, but now when I look at him again, I find that he is not a good stubble at all.
