Chapter 15: Who Wants to Rebel?
Outside the east palace, nearly eighty percent of the second-class important ministers of the court and the middle of the court gathered.
At this moment, they were blocked by the eunuchs replaced by the Jinyi Guard, and they couldn't even enter the gate of the East Palace.
"This guy is really excessive, we are all big cadres and ministers, and they turned us away?"
Jia Yuan said with anger on his face.
Xiao Longbow was also angry, and nodded again and again: "Even if you don't care about us, how can you treat the Prime Minister like this?" The prime minister is a veteran of the three dynasties, and his hard work and achievements have ended up like this, which is simply chilling. ”
The rest of the officials also nodded again and again when they heard Xiao Longbow's statement, and complained about Xiao Daoling.
Just when several officials were trying their best to please Xiao Daoling, Gonggong Cao walked out of the hall leisurely.
"Gonggong Cao, where is King Jing?"
Seeing that only Gonggong Cao appeared, the new emperor didn't even show his shadow, and Xiao Longgong asked coldly.
"Your Majesty is still resting at the moment, and I will take you into the hall for tea."
Gonggong Cao's tone was flat, and there was no flattery at all because of Xiao Longbow's identity as the Xiao family.
"That's it, Xindi has a lot of opportunities, and it's normal to rest more."
Jia Yuan was just about to speak, but Xiao Daoling interrupted him and said slowly.
He came today to let Xu Jing roll off the throne.
What if Xu Jing is unwilling? What he has is time and he wastes!
Xiao Daoling opened his mouth, and Jia Yuan naturally didn't want to say anything more, so he could only swallow back the words that came to his lips.
Gonggong Cao glanced at this group of indignant ministers and couldn't help sneering, and he would definitely find an opportunity for Xu Jing to punish this group of officials who didn't know the height of the sky.
Under the leadership of Gonggong Cao, several important ministers were brought into the side hall.
"Sit down for a while, and wait a moment."
After Gonggong Cao threw down a sentence, he turned around and left, not intending to serve this group of grumbling ministers at all.
"Presumptuous! What a presumptuousness! This King Jing only dared to do such a thing of neglecting the old minister after less than three days on the throne, could it be that he didn't know that he came this time, but the Prime Minister and the Taiwei? ”
Gao Shilian, the secretary of the military department, is a subordinate of King Qi, and he has always had many prejudices against this King of Jingjing, who inexplicably became the new emperor.
At this moment, he was so neglected, and slapped the table and scolded angrily.
Situ Zhao and Xiao Daoling are the old gods who are serving the tea prepared by the subordinates.
The tea that had just been served had already cooled, and the tea had not yet dispersed.
It's not so much a cup of tea, but a cool white open floating with the end of the tea.
This kind of eviction made the faces of the officials present very ugly, even Xiao Daoling and Situ Zhao were no exception.
"Someone!"
Gao Shilian was not a big person, and he was the most impatient, and he threw the teacup in his hand on the ground.
"Tall, I don't know why you're so angry?"
Gonggong Cao stepped on the tea stains and debris and approached, looked at Gao Shilian coldly and asked.
"This is the hospitality of the East Palace? We are second-class officials of the imperial court, and we are also the ministers of the great cadres! Only worthy of sitting in the side hall and drinking cold tea? ”
Gao Shilian held military power and was not afraid of the so-called eagle dogs all over the capital, so he stood up and asked coldly.
Gonggong Cao didn't raise his eyebrows, and responded lightly: "This is Your Majesty's will, if Lord Gao has a lot of opinions on the East Palace, you can go back and write an excerpt to report now." Maybe next time you come back, the treatment will be very different? ”
"You're just a eunuch, who gave you the courage to be so arrogant? Others are afraid of you, but I'm not afraid! ”
Gao Shilian stood up and coldly pointed at Gonggong Cao's nose and scolded him, not giving the governor in charge of the East and West factories half of face at all.
Father-in-law Cao's eyes were already slightly narrowed, and he sneered: "What? Master Gao, this is going to do something to the minions? ”
"No matter how bad the slave is, he is also His Majesty's dog, who gave you the courage to accuse this Duke?"
Gonggong Cao's extremely gloomy eyes stared at Gao Shilian, as if he wanted to engrave this humiliation in his heart, and once he had the opportunity, he would return it a hundredfold and a thousandfold.
"Alright, sit down."
Xiao Daoling didn't let the dispute between the two expand, interrupting Gao Shilian to continue shouting.
"Father-in-law Cao, please give me a tea horse. I'll just wait. ”
Xiao Daoling's repeated tolerance made the officials on one side deeply surprised, and after thinking about it, it became clear.
From today onwards, His Royal Highness King Jing will probably lose everything he has now.
In that case, what about making him crazy at the end?
Under Xiao Daoling's signal, Gao Shilian could only sit down obediently even if he was angry.
Father-in-law Cao snorted coldly and left with his sleeves brushed up.
The wait for several officials is two hours!
They had already arrived at the East Palace before dawn, and it was now noon.
That King Jing still didn't see half a shadow.
"Teacher, did that guy deliberately want to avoid me?"
Jia Yuan, who couldn't sit still for a long time, asked Xiao Daoling, who was sitting opposite, in a low voice.
Xiao Daoling didn't speak, shook his head lightly and closed his eyes: "Hide? How long can you hide? At most, a quarter of an hour, he will show up. ”
"If he doesn't show up, we don't need to talk to him more, we will submit the recital tomorrow and lead the resignation of the hundred officials."
"I'd like to see how this new emperor ends."
Gao Shilian sneered even more: "Hmph, if the border army soldiers complain and several generals resign, I'm afraid the border of Daqian is in danger!" At that time, he didn't even think about it when he knelt three times and knocked nine times! ”
"What? Is this going to be a rebellion? ”
Just when Gao Shilian was talking triumphantly, Xu Jing had already changed into a dragon robe and strode into the hall.
The hundreds of officials present looked at Xu Jingdu's expression in front of him.
At this moment, what Xu Jing was wearing was a five-clawed dragon robe that only emperors were qualified to wear!
"See Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
In the face of the dragon robe, no matter how bold the ministers were, they could only kneel down obediently and bow to Xu Jingxing.
"Tall?"
Xu Jing walked in front of everyone, sat on the sandalwood dragon chair, leaned over and stared at Gao Shilian who was kneeling on the ground and sneered.
"Minister........
Gao Shilian was sweating profusely, just now his behavior of blackmailing Xu Jingdu with the border army was no different from rebellion.
It has always been taboo for the emperor to start with the emperor of the current dynasty.
What is the difference between Gao Shilian, a military secretary who dares to blackmail the emperor with military power, and self-defeat?
"I told you to speak?"
Xu Jing didn't listen to the explanation, interrupted Gao Shilian's words, and still looked at him coldly.
"You!"
Gao Shilian's words were forcibly blocked back, his face was as red as pig's liver, and his eyes were full of anger.
"Defying the Emperor? Father-in-law Cao, slap your mouth! ”
Xu Jing sneered, glanced at the side and said openly to Cao Gong.
"Do the holy thing."
Gonggong Cao smiled at the corner of his mouth, walked in front of Gao Shilian in three or two steps and slapped him fiercely.
Gonggong Cao is a martial arts master, and his hand strength is far beyond the reach of others.
Even if he deliberately kept his strength and slapped him twice, Gao Shilian was already dizzy and his mouth was full of blood.
"Gao Shilian, are you guilty?"
