Chapter 228: An Aura of Conspiracy
At this moment, a sweet voice sounded in the court.
"Father!"
The ministers were all holding their breath, but when they suddenly heard this voice, it was as if their tense emotions were gently caressed by a hand, and they all breathed a sigh of relief involuntarily, and even Chu Yang's gloomy expression eased at this moment.
Looking back, a slender figure walked in from outside the main hall.
This figure is none other than the crescent moon princess Chu Ruoyan, I saw her dressed in colorful clothes, lotus steps, light as a beautiful butterfly fluttering to the center of the hall, and in an instant the gloomy and tense atmosphere in the court was swept away, making people have a sense of spring breeze.
The ministers all subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, there are also some people who can't help but frown.
When the emperor and the courtiers are deliberating, no one can enter and leave the hall at will, let alone interrupt the court discussion, but this princess is different, everyone knows that she is the most beloved daughter of His Majesty the Emperor, and even hugged her to discuss politics when she was a child, she cried, and even the major affairs of the court and politics can be put down, who dares to say anything at this time?
Sure enough, not only did Chu Yang not get angry, but a smile immediately appeared on his originally somewhat gloomy face: "Why are you here?"
I saw Princess Crescent Moon lift her skirt, Ying Ying bowed, bowed to the emperor, and then knelt up straight and said, "My father is not willing to sleep these days for the affairs of Xingluocang, and Xinyue has specially prepared snacks and plum wine for her father in order to share her father's worries, and she is on the side of the warm dock to welcome her father."
"The new moon really has filial piety, but my father-"
"Didn't my father also promise the new moon before, as long as Xingluocang is defeated, he will spare a day to accompany the new moon to enjoy the snow and paint? The new moon is looking forward to every day, and finally looking forward to the day of great victory, why did my father forget it?"
「……」
"Could it be that if the granary is down, can the words of the father be ignored?"
As she spoke, she pursed her lips and looked at the Ninety-Five Supreme on the dragon chair aggrievedly.
Although it was a resentful expression, it was made by this beautiful crescent princess, who was still cute and cute, and couldn't help but feel pity, Chu Yang just looked at her daughter's appearance, and immediately couldn't help laughing.
While laughing, he said, "Okay, it's my father's fault, and my father will accompany you to enjoy the snow."
With that, he stood up holding on to the armrest of the dragon chair.
Seeing him like this, Wang Shaoji, who was standing on the side, immediately sank his face, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if Yu Wenye's rebellion is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles!"
As soon as he heard this, Chu Yang's expression sank again.
However, before he could speak, Princess Crescent, who had already stood up at this time, said to Wang Shaoji, "Rebellion? Lord Wang, who do you say wants to rebel?"
Wang Shaoji said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, what Weichen said is naturally Yu Wenye, who supports the army and is self-respecting and brave!"
As he spoke, he repeated what he had just said.
Princess Crescent Moon listened with wide eyes, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "General Wang is really thoughtful, but there is one thing you seem to have missed." ….
Wang Shaoji frowned: "What's the matter?"
Princess Crescent said, "The wife of the general of the auxiliary kingdom did not follow him at the beginning of the expedition, but after he set out on the expedition, she saw that the snow had not stopped for several days, and she was worried that he would freeze to him, so she went out of the city to bring him winter clothes. What's more, if Yu Wenye really wants to rebel, why does he only bring his wife, but not even his brother?"
"Brother?"
"Yes, the little son of the Sheng Guo family is still studying in the city."
「……」
"Whose family rebelled, and didn't even bring his own brother?"
Seeing that her face was innocent, but her question was loud, although Wang Shaoji wanted to refute, but he couldn't say anything because of the emperor's face, so he could only grit his teeth hard, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out one by one.
Seeing this, the official on the other side hurriedly said, "Yes, Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess's words are reasonable
。 If Yu Wenye really had the intention of rebellion, he should have made preparations early and moved his family out of the Eastern Capital, how could he only take his wife with him? Besides, if he wants to rebel, he doesn't have to follow His Majesty's will and take Xingluocang wholeheartedly, and even send someone to send back the battle report."
「……」
"Therefore, Wei Chen believes that General Wang's worries are pure nonsense, please ask Your Majesty to adjudicate!"
「……」
Above the main hall, it was so quiet at this time that you could hear even a needle dropping.
Everyone held their breath and carefully lowered their heads.
I don't know how long it took, I saw Chu Yang holding the armrest of the dragon chair and slowly sitting back, he looked at Guan Ao's sweaty appearance condescendingly, and then looked at the faces of Wang Shao and Tie Qing, and the big eyes on the faces of his beloved daughter that flashed with expectation.
Finally, he looked up and glanced outside the main hall.
After being silent for a long time, he said slowly, "Wang Aiqing, your words are not unreasonable—"
There was another dull sigh in the main hall, as if many people couldn't help but gasp, and Guan Ao had already raised his head and looked at the emperor with some horror.
And the next moment, Chu Yang said again: "But the Yuwen family has been loyal and good for generations, and the general of the auxiliary country has worked hard to defeat Xingluocang this time. I think I treat him well, and if I think about it, he will not ignore his father's voice and the lives of his family, and do the evil deeds of the Nine Clans."
Wang Shaoji's heart sank: "But Your Majesty—"
Chu Yang waved his hand, interrupted his words, and said, "First let Shang Shutai draw up a decree and pass on the general of the auxiliary state to return to the dynasty - the soldiers and horses led by him will stay in Xingluocang, and there is no need to return to the city."
「……」
"As for Yu Wenye's killing of the prison army, it will be immediately handed over to Dali Temple for deliberation, and the reason will be clarified, whether it is merit or fault, and it will be decided after discussion!"
Wang Shaoji wanted to say something, but the official who was standing beside him had already knelt down and bowed his head: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Some other officials also knelt on the ground one after another, shouting long live, listening to the voices around him, Wang Shaoji's face was gloomy, but he had nothing to say, he could only grit his teeth and bow down, "Yes."
Seeing that the matter had been decided, Princess Xinyue immediately stepped forward happily, took Chu Yang's arm, and the father and daughter left the hall together, and the rest of the officials also got up and prepared to leave after seeing the emperor and princess leave.
Only Wang Shaoji, he looked at the back of Princess Crescent, and there was a ruthless look in his eyes, but the next moment, he saw a beautiful and dignified figure outside the main hall, flashing by.
Wang Shaoji's face suddenly froze, and then he understood something.
After a while, he turned his head and looked at the figure among the ministers, who had been standing still, but had not said a word.
An aura of conspiracy spread in his eyes.
