Chapter 237, the court of Chu argues
Chu State, Shouchun, Chu Palace.
Xiong Han, the king of Chu, sat on the throne, and below were the ministers of Chu, Xiong Han, who was only six years old, sat on the throne, although he was young, but he gradually had the appearance of the king of a country after some years on the throne, at least he could sit firmly on the throne.
The courtiers of the Chu State are also clearly factional, and the people headed by Ling Yin Li Yuan occupy the middle of the civil officials, and Ling Yin is the highest official position in the Chu State, integrating political and military power.
Changping Jun, who is on the right Yin, is not in the court at this time, he used the instability of the people in the Yingdu area as a reason a few days ago, and went to Yingdu to cooperate with Xiang Yan's entry into Shu, the right Yin and the left Yin are slightly inferior to the official positions of Ling Yin, and the purpose of setting them up is to assist Ling Yin in handling the affairs of the entire Chu State, and there is to contain Ling Yin, if it is subdivided, the right Yin is responsible for the decentralization of government affairs, and the left Yin is the military power.
The person standing behind Li Yuan is Zuo Yin, Zuo Yin is the head of the Zhao family of Qu Jingzhao's three families, behind him is the head of the Qu family, the head of the Qu family is in the left disciple, the position of the left disciple was specially set up for Qu Yuan by King Chu Huai, in charge of diplomacy, can discuss national affairs, which is equivalent to the cronies of the king of Chu, and the power of the left disciple comes from the king of Chu, which is equivalent to the eunuchs of later generations.
The position of Zuo disciple was only held by Qu Yuan and Chun Shenjun in the Chu State, and it was generally set up by the King of Chu to promote his cronies to contain Ling Yin's power. In order to win over Qu Jingzhao's three families to fight against Changping Jun, Li Yuan exchanged the position of Zuo disciple for the friendship of the head of the Qu family.
For Li Yuan, Zuo Tu could not restrict him at all without the support of the King of Chu, and for the Qu family, Zuo Tu was more like an honor, an honor that could stand side by side with Qu Yuan back then, so Qu Jingzhao and Li Yuan joined forces against Changping Jun.
The head of the Jing family is in the ranks of military attachés, the Jing family has always been the family that controls the army in Qu Jingzhao's three families, although the Jing family no longer holds the position of Sima and general, but the Jing family has a deep prestige in the army, and the defenders in many places say that it is the army of the Chu State, but in fact they are the private army of the Jing family.
"King Qiyu, the minister wants to report that someone intends to rebel!" The secretary of Chu came out and saluted the king of Chu and said.
Hearing Shangqing say this, a trace of panic and fear flashed in the eyes of King Xiong of Chu, although he can act like the King of Chu, but after all, he is a child, and he didn't know what to do for a while when he encountered such a thing as rebellion, and looked at Li Yuan with a look for help.
After feeling the eyes of the King of Chu, Li Yuan immediately stood up and said
"Zhao Shangqing, don't talk nonsense, the people of my Chu country are loyal to the king of Chu, and the ministers are loyal to the king, who dares to rebel?"
Zhao Shangqing is a member of the Zhao family, the cousin of the head of the Zhao family, and is the secretary of the Chu State.
A few days ago, my brother sent someone to send back a letter, saying that there was a large-scale transfer of the army in the barracks, and asked the minister if he wanted to go to war with Qin? When his subordinates first received the letter, they were shocked. The minister thought that his brother was talking nonsense, so he specially sent someone to investigate, and found that Xiang Yan, the general who was supposed to be in Pingxing, led the Longteng Legion and hundreds of thousands of soldiers to leave the military camp without authorization, and his whereabouts were unknown. Zhao Shangqing took out a piece of music and raised his head and said.
After Zhao Shangqing's words were finished, the entire court began to discuss, among which the people from Changpingjun and Xiang Yan's faction looked at Zhao Shangqing angrily one by one.
"Shangqing, don't frame a good person, General Xiang Yan is loyal to the Chu State, how can he transfer troops without authorization?" Xiang Ming glared at Zhao Shangqing and said, Xiang Ming is the person left by the Xiang family in the court of the Chu State, holding the position of Gongyin, responsible for the management of the daily handicraft workshop of the Chu State.
"Is it true or false, let the king see the results of the minister's investigation, if the king doesn't believe it, you can send someone to the Pingxing camp to check and see how much army is left?" Zhao Shangqing was not scared, and Xiang Yang directly grabbed it.
Without waiting for the order of Xiong Han, the king of Chu, Li Yuan directly picked up the investigation results and checked them, Li Yuan looked at the music with a heavy face, and the courtiers put their eyes on Li Yuan's body, watching Li Yuan's face turn from calm to anger.
"Doesn't this Yan Mo want to rebel!?" Li Yuan scolded loudly in court.
"Lord Yin, please don't be angry, whether this matter is true or false should be decided by the king." Another official came out and said, and someone came to face Li Yuan.
Li Yuan saw that the person who stood up held back the anger in his heart, and turned his hand to hand over the recital to the king of Chu's close attendants. The person who spoke out was the Si Defeat of the Chu royal family, Mi Yan, the surname Mi is the Chu royal family, the Chu king of Chu is the Xiong family, only the successive Chu kings and their can use the Xiong family, the Chu royal family is the surname Mi, that is, the people of the clan, and Mi Yan is the patriarch of the Mi surname, that is, the great Zongzheng of the clan.
Although Li Yuan is arrogant and domineering, he is not cowardly in the face of Qu Jingzhao's three families, but he still loses the upper hand in the face of Mi Yan, a member of the royal family, Li Yuan's power comes from the king of Chu Xiong Han, and a large part of the power of the king of Chu comes from the support of the Chu royal family, so Li Yuan does not dare to offend Mi Yan.
The attendant handed over the music to Xiong Han, the king of Chu, but what could a child less than ten years old understand, Xiong Han couldn't even recognize all the words on it, but Xiong Han, the king of Chu, still pretended to be serious and looked at the music and said
"Is what Zhao Shangqing said true?"
"Of course, if the king doesn't believe it, he can send someone to investigate, but I'm afraid that Xiang Yan will lead the army to make trouble." Shogami said in a deep voice, his words tinged with panic and impatience, sounding like things were in impatience.
"The king Hugh must listen to the words of the traitor, the general Xiang Yan is loyal to the state of Chu and the king, how can he lead the army to make a rebellion, this must be some small people who take advantage of the absence of the general in the court, wantonly attack and frame." Mi Fan stood up and said.
Mi Fan is also a member of the Chu royal family, and unlike Mi Yan's neutrality, he took refuge in Changping Jun. Mi Fan thinks that the traitorous ministers of the Chu court are in charge, and the young identity of the king of Chu is still problematic, and now he needs a person with the means and prestige to revive the court. Changping Jun is also a member of the royal family, and his identity is innocent, so after Changping Jun entered Chu, Mi Fan decisively took some people to take refuge in Changping Jun, which is also one of the reasons why Changping Jun was able to quickly gain a firm foothold in Chu.
Seeing that Qi Fan began to speak for Xiang Yan, for a while, Changping Jun and Xiang Yan's people stood up and shouted grievances, and at the same time demanded that Zhao Shangqing be severely punished. Seeing that Zhao Shangqing was besieged, the head of the Zhao family in Qu Jingzhao's three families stood up and said
"The difference between the new Yin's words, since Zhao Shangqing dares to say this, it must be well-founded, how dare he frame the general plainly, why be so excited?" After the head of the Zhao family said this.
Everyone in the court understood that this was a joint attack by Li Yuan and Qu Jingzhao against Changping Jun and Xiang Yan. Qu Jingzhao and Li Yuan's people also began to stand up and quarrel with Changping Jun and Xiang Yan's people, in the face of the more noisy court, Chu King Xiong Han looked particularly helpless, he has been on the throne for many years, Li Yuan has always been in charge of the government, the Queen Mother Li Huan hangs the curtain to listen to the government, he only needs to sleep on the throne or sit in a daze.
Today, Li Huan didn't come to the court because of the cold, and Xiong Han, who was only one person, was immediately at a loss, looking at the minister below who was blushing and thick-necked, Xiong Han immediately cried.
The fierce cry of the King of Chu immediately attracted the attention of the entire court, and the ministers did not dare to quarrel, so they returned to their positions one by one and saluted the King of Chu and said
"The minister is guilty!"
"Wow wow~ this. This matter is left to Ling Yin to deal with!! Xiong Han, the king of Chu, said with a cry.
Li Yuan looked at the servant of Xiong Han, the king of Chu, and the servant immediately understood, picked up Xiong Han and left the throne, and walked in the direction of the harem
"The king has an order, let Lord Ling Yin deal with this matter, and after making a decision, he will be in the scattered dynasty!"
After the king of Chu Xiong Han left, the entire court fell into a strange calm again, and Li Yuan stepped forward and looked at the courtiers and said
"The king handed over this matter to me, so don't quarrel like this, this is the result of Zhao Shangqing's investigation, you all listen to it."
After Li Yuan finished speaking, he motioned to the waiter next to the throne to read out the content of the chapter, and after the waiter read it, the entire court continued to remain silent, and the two of them, Mi Fan and Xiang Ming, lowered their heads and thought about something.
"This matter is just a word from Zhao Shangqing, I will send someone to investigate the specific matter, before this result appears, it is best for Gongyin to still take it at home, let the entire Xiang family calm down, and don't move around at will." Li Yuan looked at Xiang Ming and said.
"The general is loyal to the Chu State, and my Xiang family also has a clear conscience." Xiang Ming said that he didn't believe that Xiang Yan would really do anything to mobilize the army without authorization and intend to rebel, and even if he did, he would send someone to notify the Xiang family, so as to mobilize the forces of the Xiang family in the country, so that the chance of success of the rebellion would be the greatest.
At the first time that Xiang Yang recognized it, the gate of the Chu Palace's palace was pushed open, and a soldier ran desperately, shouting as he ran
"Urgent military intelligence! Emergency military intelligence! ”
Hearing that it was an urgent military situation, the gates of the palace opened one after another along the way, allowing the armor soldiers to enter the palace directly.
"Lord Ling Yin, there's an urgent military situation ahead!!" One of the guards walked into the main hall and said.
"Bring it on." Li Yuanyin glanced at Xiang Yang and Mi Fan compassionately.
Seeing Li Yuan's eyes, Xiang Yan and Mi Fan immediately felt that something was wrong, and the ministers who didn't know the internal intelligence also whispered, and with the arrival of the armor soldier, everyone's eyes were on the armor soldier.
"Meet Lord Ling Yin, there is an urgent military situation ahead." The armor said with a heavy breath.
"What kind of military information, read it directly!" Li Yuan said.
The armor was a little hesitant, but looking at Li Yuan's expression, he still opened the box, opened the scroll inside, and said
"The general Xiang Yan united with Changping Jun, mobilized the 170,000 troops of Pingxing, secretly transferred troops to attack the Qin State, and the 170,000 army was annihilated, and the general Xiang Yan and the Longteng Army General Long Qi did not know whether they were alive or dead. Under the Qin army, Cai Shou General Yang Duan and attacked Pingxing, and Pingxing Shou General asked for help! ”
As soon as the words of the armor soldier fell, the entire court was shocked, they didn't expect Xiang Yan to really lead the 170,000 army to leave their posts without permission, and they didn't expect Xiang Yan to lead troops to attack the Qin State, and the whole army was wiped out, this is nearly half of the army of the Chu State, and it is said that they are all elites, and for a while everyone looked at Xiang Ming and Mi Fan angrily.
Brothers, it turned out that it wasn't a power outage, it was that the switch on my electric switch didn't work, and the electricity was interrupted from time to time, and it was just replaced at night, and the remaining two chapters were updated during the day.
