Chapter 319: Above the Court
"Your Majesty, do you want the old slave to send someone to intercept it? Come to think of it, they were still some distance from the palace. ”
"As long as the minister seizes the opportunity, there is still a chance to leave that one behind."
Cao Gong lowered his voice and asked in Xu Jing's ear.
As an old eunuch who has been in the palace for decades, Gonggong Cao knows that everything Xiao Daoling said at this moment is not a lie.
If the third prince came here in a grand manner, no one could guarantee whether that one would continue to favor Xu Jing.
You must know that not long ago, Xu Jingfang removed Xu You's position as the deputy commander of the martial arts envoy.
The two of them came close to opposing each other, and the truth was almost predictable at this moment.
"In front of everyone's eyes, do you think this prime minister is not prepared at all?"
"I'm afraid that the one who went to greet Xu Yu on this trip was this person's secret son who had been hidden for a long time."
"Killing people in the street, as long as you show your true colors, all the spearheads will fall on my head."
Xu Jing clenched his fists.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he did make a mistake right now.
I didn't expect that Xiao Daoling would know about such a secret.
"But this ......"
Gonggong Cao was a little anxious, Xu Jing was sitting so dry at the moment, didn't he sit waiting for Xiao Daoling to bring him?
In that case, nine times out of ten, it will inevitably be a heavy blow to today's cadres.
"Wait!"
Xu Jing gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
Gonggong Cao was silent, he could only stand beside Xu Jing and nodded slightly, his sleeves clenched and loosened with both hands, and so on.
"Your Majesty, the third prince has arrived!"
Not long after, outside the Jinluan Palace, the voice of the eunuch sounded.
All the officials looked at Xu Jing in unison.
"Xuan!"
Xu Jing's voice trembled slightly, and he roared.
With Xu Jing's voice, it was the third prince Xu Yu who walked in.
"Minister, please meet Your Majesty."
Xu Yu walked to Xu Jing and knelt in front of everyone in front of everyone.
"Get up."
"In comparison, Prime Minister Xiao's people have already informed you on the road."
Xu Jing's voice was low, and he motioned for Xu Yu to get up.
"Back to Your Majesty, Prime Minister Xiao has indeed said this matter."
Xu You nodded, expressionless.
"Third Prince, tell me, have you ever had such a thing in the past?"
Xiao Daoling was extremely proud and looked at Xu You.
Xu You looked at hundreds of eyes at him, and then looked back at Xu Jing deeply, as if he was very hesitant, not knowing how to say it.
"Third prince, please also ask you to solve the doubts of the hundred officials."
"If Your Majesty is in the right position, please give Your Majesty justice."
Gonggong Cao's voice trembled slightly, and he raised several times to remind Xu You.
At this moment, his fists tightened slightly, and his fate had long been closely linked to Xu Jing.
If Xu Jing is carried away from this dragon chair.
He, the chief administrator of the Great Interior, will also lose all rights. and even became a prisoner.
"Is the Cao Guild too anxious? Let the third prince think about it. ”
"After all, this is an old thing from thirty years ago, how can you remember it for a while?"
Xiao Daoling looked at Gonggong Cao with a sneer.
"This matter, this king is getting older, and he can't remember it clearly."
Xu You lowered his head and was silent for a moment before raising his head and replying.
When Xu Jing heard this, he couldn't help but let go of his grip a little.
"So, this kind of thing is probably just rumors? Is there any problem with His Majesty's accession to the throne? ”
The hundred officials also breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
In the crowd, only Xiao Daoling stared at Xu You with tears in his eyes: "Third Prince, are these truths?" ”
"If you lie in the court, you are guilty of treason!"
Xiao Daoling thought that he was in control of people's hearts, and he wanted Xu You and Xu Jing to separate themselves from morality through the assassination.
is even more striking while the iron is hot, wanting to give Xu Yu a chance to take revenge at this last moment.
In Xiao Daoling's plan, Xu Youhui did not hesitate to point to Xu Jing.
never thought that all his plans were in vain, and all he was waiting for was Xu Yu's fluttering sentence, which had long been forgotten.
The moment this sentence fell, it was undoubtedly confirmed that Xiao Daoling had deceived the monarch.
"How can this king be so angry about the old things of thirty years ago?"
"Not to mention that such things happened when the king was a few years old, how could the king remember?"
Xu You shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"Prime Minister Xiao, I don't know what else you have to say at this moment?"
"Bullying the monarch and colluding with the forbidden army are all serious crimes!"
"If it is investigated, if His Majesty is assassinated, if there is also the shadow of Prime Minister Xiao."
"That's three felonies, all of them capital offenses!"
Gonggong Cao pointed at Xiao Daoling and asked with a sneer.
"Third Prince, this situation is your last chance to speak."
"If you miss it, you won't have a chance!"
Xiao Daoling walked towards Xu You, wanting to grab Xu You's sleeve.
But it was taken by the forbidden army who had been waiting for a long time.
Xu Jing looked at Xu You's back, sighed slightly, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, how should we deal with such a chaotic party?"
Taking Xiao Daoling down, the forbidden army looked up at Xu Jing and asked cautiously.
"I remember that you have meritorious service to the great cadres, and I will not kill you."
"It's just that Prime Minister Xiao is getting older, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to take charge of political affairs, so let's go back and recuperate."
"Come on, send it to slaughter, oh it's Xiao Daoling returning home!"
Xu Jing raised his hand and shouted.
Xiao Daoling's eyes were dark and difficult to understand.
"Retreat!"
Xu Jing waved his hand to signal the hundred officials to leave, and at the same time motioned for Xu Yu to walk into the palace with him.
"Your Majesty!"
Gonggong Cao held Xu Jing, who was about to fall, and his voice was nervous.
Gonggong Cao glanced at Xu Jing's back, which was already full of sweat at the moment.
It can be seen how dangerous the court meeting just now was.
As long as Xu Yu vetoes Xu Jing's orthodoxy.
Even if it is not enough to shake Xu Jing's status as the new emperor now, it is enough to make the Manchu civil and military suspicious, and then rumors spread among the people.
】
When enough rumors are brewing, everyone can use this as an excuse to start a rebellion.
It can be said that Xiao Daoling is too big to completely crush the good situation that Xu Jing has managed to maintain without blood.
"Why?"
Xu Jing was helped by Gonggong Cao to sit down, looked at Xu Yu who was standing in front of him and asked lightly.
"No, it's just from the heart."
Xu You replied with an expressionless face and shook his head.
"It's just that simple?"
Xu Jing didn't believe it, he was used to seeing the royal deception, Xu Jing couldn't believe it, Xu Yu would ask for nothing if he did this.
"It's just that simple."
"My brother is indeed not a good emperor, during his reign, he was in prison, he harmed Zhongliang, and even sat back and watched the court being controlled by treacherous ministers like Xiao Daoling."
"But you are a good emperor, better than your second brother."
Xu You raised his head and stared at Xu Jing and said word by word.
"So, you're helping me for this?"
Xu Jing smiled hoarsely.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it would be his diligent governance for half a year that saved him.
"Not really, this king also wants to change his life."
"Now, I don't think my nephew will continue to imprison this king, right?"
Xu You shook his head and looked at Xu Jing with a smile.
"Naturally, from today onwards, Uncle Huang will resume his status as the prince, as for whether the martial envoy should continue to take it, it depends on yourself."
Xu Jing exhaled a breath of turbid air and nodded gently.
