In the attic of the imperial study, a young man knelt respectfully on the ground, his face was flat and could not see joy or anger. At the top of him, a white-haired heroic old man stood on a high platform, and with a blue face, he smashed a piece of music at the young man.
Regardless of whether the recital passed by or was thrown directly on his body, the young man did not move in the slightest, but just let the old man keep scolding and reprimanding.
"Be bold! Reckless! The Bauhinia Guard is about to become your private army! Have you forgotten who gave you the power, and who promoted you to the position you are today! These are all the pieces of impeachment against you, and if I hadn't suppressed it, you would have been in prison by now!"
The hysterical scolding finally stopped, and the old man gasped and said hatefully: "I can tolerate you in the handmaid case, but you have gone too far in leading troops to attack the royal forbidden army this time! If you can't give me a satisfactory answer today, I won't protect you anymore!"
The one kneeling in the audience was David Mo, who led the troops to attack the camp of the Fourth Division. Yesterday's war shook the entire imperial capital, and some people even mistakenly thought that the royal forbidden army had mutinied, and when the matter became clear, everyone couldn't help but be shocked by the audacity of this Wu Mugong.
There have been many conflicts between the Royal Forbidden Army, but there has never been a confrontation between two divisions as it had been yesterday evening. The confrontation aside, there was even an extremely tragic bloodshed, with more than 500 soldiers of the Fourth Division killed on the spot, plus the soldiers of the Third Division and the Bauhinia Guard who died in the conflict. The number of casualties on both sides is as high as more than 700!
If it weren't for David Mo's later kneeling down to receive the order. The soldiers of the 3rd Division simply did not stop continuing the massacre. For all the armies that dare to resist, they must all be subjugated, this is a phrase that Moknash and Tielebi often talk about.
The officials who were originally silent because of the servant girl case boiled again: If you Mo David messes up with the Government Council, we will put up with it. Now that you dare to kill yourself and lead troops to attack the Royal Forbidden Army without permission, then don't blame us for being rude.
At the same time, because the real power officials of Zheng Erpin, who had not been heard of for 30 years, were arrested, so this time, including Rob Carrey and others, they were no longer blocked, and the officials of the seven ministries asked for a thorough investigation of David Mo, and an impeachment event was launched. At this time, if it is known that you did not impeach David Mo, the colleagues around you will cast contemptuous glances. As if to say: If you don't impeach yet, you can't keep up with the situation!
As for the emperor's anger, Bruwei has analyzed it for David Mo, and he believes that the emperor will not unload the mill and kill the donkey now, because the military aircraft department is still in a state of tail failure, and the gold coins currently confiscated cannot meet the emperor's requirements at all.
His Majesty was furious, and Weichen was terrified. It was helpless to besiege the camp of the Fourth Division. Now the twelve divisions of the royal forbidden army are standing on their own hills, almost ignoring the laws of the imperial court. A self-proclaimed barrier to the country, placing the power of the Ministry above the laws of the Empire. Weichen dared to speculate that there would be chaos in the long run!
Yesterday evening, Wei Chen's bitter words did not have the slightest effect. On the contrary, Letti Foucault became more and more domineering. If you can't punish such young people, I'm afraid that there will be no place for Bauhinia Wei to stand in the future. How can we talk about washing the government for Your Majesty.
Therefore, everything Weichen does is to maintain the face of the court, if there is the slightest selfish distraction, people and gods will be angry and heaven and earth will not tolerate it!"
Hearing his frank explanation, Yale XIII sneered: "Do you dare to say that there are no selfish distractions?!" Tang's unjust case is known as the handmaid case, if it weren't for the bitter lord being the father of the two servant girls in your house, this kind of case would arrest the officials of the fourth grade?"
David Mo showed a little unwillingness, and said in a deep voice: "Wechen has never dared to abolish the public for personal reasons, and the reason why this case is getting more and more fierce is by no means untargeted! The government affairs yuan has used public weapons to mutilate good families for private purposes, and high-ranking officials in the military and political circles have colluded with each other to do whatever they want, and wechen's move is precisely to defeat this unhealthy trend!"
Seeing that he still refused to admit his mistake, Yale XIII was furious and shouted loudly: "Then tell me what is the matter with the royal forbidden army! Do you really think that everyone in the world is deaf and blind! It is Rietie Foucault's youngest son who has made the whole Tong case! Therefore, you have to arrest the regimental commander under him, and then he is unwilling to hand over people, so you will lead troops to attack his own camp! This is not a public weapon for private use! I see how you can quibble!"
A layer of cold sweat oozed from David Mo's back, since the emperor already knew his purpose, why did he still make such a big fuss? Doesn't he want to bring down a few heavyweight officials?
"Letifokok withheld military pay and materials, and was even more nepotistic, almost treating the Fourth Division as his own private property. Wechen believes that Riety Foucault must be behind the ...... behind such audacity."
Before he could finish his sentence, the emperor suddenly interrupted him: "Enough! You say that Lettifoucault regards the Fourth Division as private property, then let me ask you, why don't you regard the Third Division as private property?"
He stared at David Mo coldly, and said in a cold voice: "I heard that the soldiers of the Third Division heard the order to attack the Fourth Division, and they all rushed forward without hesitation. I'm really surprised by your dominance over the army!"
Hearing this, David Mo finally understood why the emperor was so angry, it turned out that the root of the problem was here. Officers at all levels of the 3rd Division have not been assigned deputy division commanders until now because of battle losses.
As a result, he has supreme power in the Third Division, and because of his outstanding military achievements and personal bravery, the Third Division greatly admires him, so it is not surprising that he is commanded.
But it was precisely this absolute dominance over a division that caused the emperor's strong dissatisfaction. He didn't care who David Mo arrested, after all, vigorously rectifying the rule of officials was originally something he acquiesced to.
But David Mo's authority has already made him mind, he doesn't want to defeat a group of powerful ministers, but in the end only one powerful minister is left, this result is more terrible than the military aircraft department!
Knowing this kind of thinking of the emperor, David Mo felt cold in his heart, and couldn't help but laugh secretly: This is the measure of the king of a country, and he only has the strength of a division and regiment, and he is already guilty.
"Although Weichen came from a vulgar background, he never dared to forget Jun'en. All the officers and men of the Third Division are very fond of him, and it is also because of the teachings of the Holy Master! Now that Wechen has held three positions, he often feels that he is deeply inadequate, and he also asks His Majesty to allow Wechen to resign from the post of division commander!" After saying this, two tears squeezed out of his eyes and knocked his head on the ground fiercely.
Seeing him resign from the military so happily, Yale XIII couldn't help but feel a little guilty, this young man worked so hard outside, maybe he really misunderstood him.
Judging from David Mo's performance recently, although he is a little arrogant, he has not exceeded the imperial power in the slightest. In addition, he has been in the court for a very short time and has no foundation, and he has always stood on the opposite side of the civil and military officials, so it stands to reason that he has no qualifications to rebel against the imperial court.
But he always felt that there was something missing in David Mo, compared with other civil and military officials, this young man had no fetters, no parents and no wife, not to mention children and descendants.
This made him feel a little unsure of this young man, when he gave the Danshu iron coupon, he felt that this kind of reward was not tempting, because this young man is still a single person.
He wanted to tie David Mo up with a rope, and wanted him to honestly serve the Yale family. It's a pity that he hasn't been able to find this rope, or he has been reluctant.
After half a ring, he finally broke the silence and said lightly: "I have seen all the efforts you have made to shelter the palace from the wind and rain outside. That's it, I won't pursue this matter anymore, the third division can't do without you for the time being, and you can continue to bear the position of division commander. β
David Mo couldn't tell whether he was real or fake for a while, so he didn't reply immediately. Then I heard the emperor continue: "Now that you are in a high position, there are not a few people who come to propose marriage, why are you still unwilling to find a good match?"
The emperor's topic changed too quickly, and he was a little difficult to adapt to, and after thinking about it for a while, he immediately replied: "Weichen already has a fiancΓ©e, and if he dissolves the marriage contract without permission, it will inevitably be a little unkind." Besides, Weichen is still young, so he doesn't feel urgent about this kind of thing. β
Yale XIII laughed twice and quipped him, "You're still young, but you're not small." You have done a lot of things to raid your home and destroy your door, and you don't need me to say much about the fighting on the battlefield. You are already a real man in my eyes, and at your age I have already married a second concubine. β
Feeling that the atmosphere was a little more relaxed, David Mo straightened his waist slightly, patted his horse and said: "The saint is eloquent, and Weichen doesn't dare to look up to one ten-thousandth." β
It's a pity that the emperor was not moved by his sycophant, waved his hand lightly, and said with a faint smile: "How can the matter of children's love be regarded as eloquent, your kung fu is not good at all." β
David Mo laughed lightly, not daring to say anything more, at this time he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he just wanted to leave this cage-like palace as soon as possible.
"I'm sure you've heard of my youngest daughter, Jamiru, who is just seventeen years old this year, and I have always regarded her as the jewel of my palm, but now that the girl is older, it's time to find her a good match...... Half a month later, you two will be ready to get engaged!"
Yale XIII was so reluctant that he had always doted on this little daughter, so much so that he thought about it for a long time, and it was only today that he finally made up his mind.
It's a pity that this rare honor is not appreciated in David Mo's heart, and what happened to Elivier has chilled him at the beginning, so he doesn't want to experience this kind of engagement a second time at all.
So he kowtowed at the moment, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty's care makes Weichen grateful! But now that he has a marriage contract, he really doesn't dare to think about the princess anymore! I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
Hearing his blunt refusal, Yale XIII's face was cloudy, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, as if his anger was about to explode again......!
