Dayan Palace, the Imperial Study!

As soon as Chu Xiu walked in, he saw the Criminal Department Shangshu and the Military Department Shangshu standing aside.

After Shangshu of the Criminal Department saw Chu Xiu, a trace of pride flashed in his eyes, which made Chu Xiu suddenly become nervous.

"The last general, Chu Xiu, has seen Your Majesty."

Chu Xiu gave a big gift to Emperor Dayan.

Emperor Dayan squinted at Chu Xiu and asked, "Some people say that you are making a big fuss about the criminal department, and you dare to scold the crown prince of the dynasty?" ”

Hearing these trumped-up charges, Chu Xiu's face instantly became ugly, and he hurriedly explained: "The last general has never done these things, and please ask Your Majesty to find out." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has a witness in his hand, if General Chu feels wronged, the minister can call the witness out now and confront General Chu in court!" The criminal department Shangshu said confidently.

When Emperor Dayan heard this, he nodded at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and motioned for the Shangshu of the Criminal Department to call the witnesses out.

After receiving the order of Emperor Dayan, Shangshu of the Criminal Department personally brought a soldier over.

"Zhang San, the guard of the Criminal Department, I have seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"

After this guard named Zhang San walked in, he immediately gave Emperor Dayan a bowing salute.

Emperor Dayan raised his hand, let Zhang San stand up from the ground, and then said: "Tell everything you know, but if there is half a lie, I will make your life worse than death!" ”

Zhang San was so frightened that he shuddered for a while, and then spoke in front of everyone.

"Your Majesty, I was on an errand at the entrance of the criminal department yesterday, and I saw General Chu and the daughter of the Wan family coming to pick up the Wan family master with a holy decree, and Lord Shangshu personally received the two of them and told them about the death of the Wan family master."

"After General Chu knew that the head of the Wan family was dead, he scolded Lord Shangshu outside the gate of the Criminal Department for bending the law for personal gain, bending the law into a trick, and also scolded His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for killing people and destroying his mouth, and he was not worthy of being the prince of Dayan!"

Hearing Zhang San's words, Emperor Dayan was furious, glared at Chu Xiu viciously with a pair of eyes, and asked loudly:

"Chu Xiu, what else do you have to say now?"

"For the sake of a family, you even dare to scold the prince, do you still have imperial power in your eyes?"

Feeling the breath of Emperor Dayan, Chu Xiu's face became very ugly.

What Zhang San said is nothing, don't even think about it, all this must have been arranged by the prince and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department!

The incident happened suddenly, Chu Xiu was speechless at the moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, I have never done what Zhang San said, and I will be wronged in the end, please let Your Majesty know!" ”

"You came to me to intercede in person for the sake of the Wan family, and in order to repay the favor to the Wan family, what else can't you do?" Emperor Dayan drank coldly, and he couldn't hear Chu Xiu's explanation at all.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department on the side was very proud when he saw it, and all this was developing in the direction he expected.

He has been an official in the imperial court for many years, so he naturally knows that His Majesty hates a genius like Chu Xiu the most for getting too close to the family, and he does not allow others to have no reverence for the imperial power.

So he deliberately made up these stories to make Chu Xiu commit two taboos in a row, no matter how high Chu Xiu's talent is, it is impossible for His Majesty to spare Chu Xiu, even if it is to remove Chu Xiu's official position, it is not impossible.

As long as there is no official position, Chu Xiu will not have the protection of the imperial court, and it will not be easy to deal with Chu Xiu when the time comes?

"Your Majesty, the last general really didn't do these things, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate!" Chu Xiu said loudly, the expression on his face was very sincere.

Now he has a hard time arguing, and if he wants to get out of danger, he can only persuade His Majesty to send someone to investigate, after all, there were still many people outside the Criminal Department yesterday, as long as he found someone to testify for Chu Xiu, the truth would naturally be revealed!

However, Chu Xiu had just spoken, and the military department secretary on the side suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the coercion of the imperial family, and the criminal department secretary has just pressed this matter, if you send someone to investigate, I am afraid it will be harmful to the royal family." ”

Chu Xiu was still curious about why the military department was here, and he was also here to do his own thing, when did he offend so many people?

Emperor Dayan already valued imperial power, and when he heard the words of the military department, he immediately dispelled the idea of sending someone to investigate.

He turned his head to look at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department on the side, and asked, "According to the law of Dayan, how should Chu Xiu's crime be dealt with?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the prestige of the imperial court has been damaged due to the disturbance of the dignitaries, and the fifty boards should be re-beaten! Insulting the future monarch and causing damage to the royal family should be punished with capital punishment. The criminal department Shangshu responded.

If it is according to the law of Dayan, Chu Xiu should die!

Although Emperor Dayan was angry, he was not so confused that he beheaded Chu Xiu, after all, Chu Xiu was the first day of Dayan, and the pillar of the future confrontation with the barbarians, if he was killed like this, it would be a great loss to Dayan.

But the prestige of the royal family cannot be damaged, if he lets Chu Xiu go, who will be in awe of the imperial power in the future?

Just when Emperor Dayan was feeling in a dilemma, Gonggong Wei suddenly shouted outside the door: "Your Majesty, Marshal Wei has asked for an audience!" ”

Anyway, he couldn't think of a way to deal with Chu Xiu for a while, and Emperor Dayan directly asked Gonggong Wei to bring Marshal Wei in.

"The last general has seen Your Majesty!" Marshal Wei gave a salute to Emperor Dayan.

Emperor Dayan didn't understand why Marshal Wei would come to see me at this time, so he asked curiously: "Aiqing is in such a hurry to see me, but what's the urgency?" Could it be that the barbarians are moving again? ”

Although Marshal Wei is sitting in Kyoto, he is alone in handling the military affairs on the border, and if he suddenly meets him, it must be related to the barbarians!

Speaking of the barbarians, the aura in the imperial study suddenly became serious, and everyone looked at Marshal Wei with very serious expressions.

"Back to Your Majesty, the border has been repeatedly invaded by barbarians, and now there are only eighty percent of the troops, I am worried that the barbarians still have operations, please Your Majesty send troops to the border to support, so as not to let the barbarians come!"

After Marshal Wei finished speaking, he handed over a military report.

If it is an ordinary city, eighty percent of the troops are enough to defend it, and if something really happens, it will be too late to send troops to support.

But the border is different, this is the defense line of the entire Terran, once anything happens, the Great Yan is in danger, and the Terran is in danger!

Therefore, even if there are still eighty percent of the troops on the border, reinforcements must be sent as soon as possible!

After reading the military report, Emperor Dayan knew the seriousness of this matter, and said: "This matter should be discussed by Aiqing and the military department, and the reinforcements must be sent to the border as soon as possible!" ”

"Your Majesty, the soldiers sent to the border are easy to choose, but which general will send these reinforcements over?" Marshal Wei spoke again, his face flushed with embarrassment.

Shang Shu of the Military Department on the side was about to say something, but Marshal Wei suddenly threw a cold look at him, which directly scared him back into his mouth.

After Emperor Dayan heard Marshal Wei's words, he immediately thought of his junior brother, General Qin Jie, but Qin Jie was injured in the battle of generals, and now it may be inappropriate to go to the border.

But the other generals have tasks on their bodies, and they can't go to the border at all, and the young generals who have just been promoted have limited strength, so I'm afraid they can't suppress so many soldiers.

After thinking about it, Emperor Dayan finally set his eyes on Chu Xiu, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

"Chu Xiu, you should be beheaded for making such a big mistake, but for the sake of your unbridled words in order to repay your kindness, I will spare your life."

"The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, you can take these soldiers to the border together, and you can't go back to Kyoto without my edict!"
