Chapter 102: Confrontation

Xiao Daoling smiled at Xu Jing and said slowly.

"Bold!"

Gonggong Cao glared at Xiao Daoling angrily and shouted.

"I'm going to enter the Xiao Mansion now, is the prime minister going to stop it?"

Xu Jing asked in a cold tone.

"Your Majesty, please go back."

Xiao Daoling did not retreat for half a step, and replied arrogantly.

"Archer, prepare!"

Xu Jing sneered, took half a step back and gave orders.

"You dare!"

Xiao Daoling trembled all over and glared angrily at Xu Jing not far away.

Behind him, hundreds of crossbowmen had bent their bows and arrows, just waiting for Xu Jing to give orders.

"Prime Minister Xiao, I see that you are old and meritorious to the court. I have given you enough face, and you don't know how to lift. ”

Xu Jing stepped forward and whispered in Xiao Daoling's ear.

But these words fell into Xiao Daoling's ears, but they were extremely harsh.

The dignified prime minister of a country, a figure who has been in power for decades was blocked by a hairy boy, and threatened to kill the whole family with arrows, such humiliation Xiao Daoling is absolutely unacceptable.

"If Your Majesty wants to kill the Xiao family, you don't have to find excuses, just release arrows."

"The old minister wants to see if His Majesty really has the courage to risk the world's condemnation."

Xiao Daoling squeezed out of his mouth word by word with a cold face, and his eyes were full of hatred when he looked at Xu Jing.

You Xian, who was not far away, looked at the scene in front of him and was equally frightened.

Such a saber-rattling picture has hardly appeared in the 300 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

And now the one who is confronting Xu Jing is still the prime minister who is full of reputation.

"Your Majesty, do you want to forget it? If you really shoot Xiao Daoling, I am afraid that the whole country will be shocked, which is not a good thing for you. ”

Gonggong Cao was also frightened, and approached Xu Jing's side in a solemn and cautious persuasion.

"I'm afraid of these? How the people of the world discuss it is the business of the people of the world, and how those scholars will judge is their business, and I will not compromise with anyone! ”

Xu Jing smiled faintly, he didn't mean to retreat at all, and his eyes were cold and looked directly at Xiao Daoling.

"Your Majesty, if this stalemate continues, if a certain pawn doesn't let go of his hand, it will cause a big deal!"

Gonggong Cao was anxious to persuade Xu Jing again.

"Ready!"

Xu Jing completely ignored Gonggong Cao's persuasion and shouted loudly.

The archer behind him instantly drew the bow in his hand into a half moon, and the arrow looked particularly cold in the moonlight.

"The old minister hereby warns His Majesty that if His Majesty fights within the Great Cadres, he will have to pay the price."

Xiao Daoling looked at Xu Jing's resolute posture, his cheeks trembled slightly, and he said with a sneer.

"No matter what the cost, I will carry it on my shoulders. Get ready to shoot your arrows! ”

Xu Jing's face was full of disdain, and he motioned to the archers behind him to prepare to release the arrows.

"Your Majesty! Think again! ”

Gonggong Cao was so frightened that he knelt down and shouted.

Now, the great cadres are divided everywhere, just waiting for an excuse to besiege the capital.

If Xu Jing really shot these arrows, it would undoubtedly confirm their thoughts.

At that time, those rebellious ministers and thieves could raise troops in the name of the emperor's incompetence and wanton killing loyalty.

At that time, the situation will be completely out of Xu Jing's control.

"No need to persuade again, I will definitely not regret it."

Xu Jing said and walked back, and the arrows of the archers behind him had the intention of breaking through the air.

"Oh my God, isn't this really crazy? Even the prime minister of the dynasty dared to shoot him! ”

The military department Shangshu, who was hiding in the Prime Minister's Mansion, was frightened, his face turned blue, and he muttered to himself.

He thought that Xu Jing would come to ask for someone, but he never imagined that Xu Jing would be so domineering and not give Xiao Daoling any face.

"Prime Minister Xiao is still better to hand over people, if you really tear your face, no one will be able to get benefits, right?"

"If you feel that you have lost face, the miscellaneous family will make it clear to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will issue a special decree to explain this matter to the whole city."

"It's all your own family, why make the situation so stiff?"

Seeing that persuasion of Xu Jing was fruitless, Gonggong Cao could only lower his voice and say to Xiao Daoling.

"Grandpa Cao, the old man is more than what you say. If Your Majesty wants to use an excuse to destroy the Xiao family, then it will be destroyed. What is the danger of adding to the sin? ”

Xiao Daoling also didn't eat oil and salt, glanced at Gonggong Cao, and replied with a sneer.

"You! Bring about one's own destruction! ”

Gonggong Cao was choked by Xiao Daoling's answer, and glared angrily and turned to leave.

Such a thing that does not enter oil and salt is indeed damned!

"Your Majesty, by all means! That's the prime minister of the Great Qian, but the patriarch of the Three Dynasties! If you kill you, wouldn't you be a self-stigmatizer? ”

Xu Jing blocked the door of the Xiao Mansion with illness and couldn't escape the eyes and ears of the officials in the capital at all.

At this moment, officials above the second grade have come one after another to intercede for Xiao Daoling.

lest Xu Jing really be a bad one, and shoot the prime minister of this big cadre.

"What? Do you think what I did was wrong? Xiao Daoling dared to shield the corrupt officials of the imperial court, why didn't I dare to besiege the government and ask for people? ”

Xu Jing sneered at the group of officials kneeling in front of him and asked.

"Is there any evidence for what Your Majesty said?"

Xiao Daoling looked at Xu Jing and asked coldly.

"Naturally, General You brought things up."

Xu Jing smiled coldly and ordered You Xian to step forward.

"These are the correspondence between the military department Shangshu and General You. What is written is the greatest evidence! ”

"If it is not enough, 100,000 soldiers in the suburbs are the greatest evidence! Dare to be greedy for military salaries and rations from all over the country, who gave him the guts of the dog? Could it be that Lord Xiao is also involved? ”

Xu Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had no fear to take out the evidence one by one.

Many officials were shocked when they heard this, and their eyes focused on Xiao Daoling.

Everyone in the world knows that His Majesty has never been soft on corrupt officials. If you find out, you're dead!

It doesn't matter if you are a second-class member of the DPRK or a local feudal official, as long as you are caught, you will only end up in a different place!

Now Xu Jing has evidence in his hand, and even pointed the finger at Xiao Daoling, and he doesn't care about Xiao Daoling's identity as the prime minister at all.

"Prime Minister Xiao, if the military department is really in your mansion, please call him out of the confrontation. What if this person actually did? ”

The official on the side cautiously persuaded Xiao Daoling.

"No, what if he kills me? This place is not to stay for long! ”

Listening to the shouts coming from outside the mansion, the military department Shangshu was shocked.

As Xu Jing predicted, Xiao Daoling was also involved in this matter and benefited a lot.

Otherwise, how could he have the courage to swallow up hundreds of thousands of troops, salaries and rations?

At this moment, the military department Shangshu was in a trance, lest Xiao Daoling kill himself and hand him over in order to protect himself.

Thinking of this, the military department Shangshu cautiously slipped out of the back door while Xiao Daoling and Xu Jing were confronting, intending to take this opportunity to escape.

"These are just General You's words, how can the old man know if it's true or not? If the person is handed over, His Majesty will be sent to the edict and prison to be beaten into a trick, won't the old man have to bear the name of hundreds of thousands of army salaries and rations? ”

Xiao Daoling said slowly without fear, without any idea of retreating.

"Prime Minister, the military department has fled!"

Just as Xiao Daoling and Xu Jing looked at each other, the housekeeper cautiously walked into his ear and informed him of the news.

Xiao Daoling's face changed drastically, and he scolded secretly in his heart: "That guy is really a human head and pig brain!" If he didn't escape, Xu Jing wouldn't be able to do anything at all, at most he would be deadlocked. ”
