Chapter 12 Forgetfulness and selfishness
Following. Morning meeting.
"Prime Minister...... Prime Minister......"
Seeing Shen Yuan coming, the surrounding civil and military officials gave way and saluted.
"Good morning, gentlemen."
Shen Yuan also smiled and greeted the hundred officials enthusiastically.
A sincere and enthusiastic smile, a clear and elegant appearance, and a generous and decent etiquette. Those who don't understand will only feel like a spring breeze.
But how do these old foxes in the DPRK and China not know the true face of Shen Yuan?
If you are deceived by his kind disguise, he will eat you to the bone!
There was a stunned young official before, who participated in Shen Yuan's book for a trivial matter, but within seven days, the official's mansion was besieged by many evil sects in the rivers and lakes!
In the end, the official was not only made a human by those evil sect people, but his wife and daughter were also treated as a furnace, and life was worse than death!
As a result, on the second day, Shen Yuan still cried about the incident in the court, bursting into tears, expressing deep sorrow and regret for what happened to that official, and even demanding that those evil sects be strictly investigated.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that you don't know about this? Are you a liar?
But alas, Shen Yuan picked himself too clean! There were no clues at all, and even if those evil sect disciples were caught later, they flatly denied that they had anything to do with Shen Yuan.
But if Shen Yuan has nothing to do with that incident, the officials who killed them won't believe it!
As an official in the court, which one is not an old fox who has practiced for a hundred years?
Like that kind of stunned green, I'm afraid it will only come out in a hundred years.
Shen Yuan greeted these officials with a false gesture, and at the same time, he limped towards the Jinluan Hall with a cane.
Although Shen Yuan was lame, everyone who saw him turned around and gave way.
However, there were still people who did not give way, but stood straight in front of Shen Yuan.
The commander-in-chief of the Dragon Gate Guard, Wei Qi.
"Lord Shen is the body of the prime minister, and he has an inferior leg disease, but he can still insist on going to the court every day, which is really a model for our officials."
These words seem to have no problem, but they are actually mocking Shen Yuan for being a lame.
Shen Yuan propped up his crutches, and the crutches struck the bluestone ground, making a "knock knock" sound.
"Eat the king's Lu, worry about the king, even if you are holding a crippled body, you have to think about sharing your majesty's worries all the time, this is our duty as courtiers, Lord Wei, do you say yes?"
"I didn't expect Lord Shen to have such an awareness, it's really a blessing for my Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty!"
When he said this, Wei Qi deliberately increased the volume on the four words of the court's luck.
But Shen Yuan continued as if he didn't understand.
"It's not just the true appearance, it's the obligation of all our courtiers, it's all what should be done, Lord Wei don't say it as if the original appearance is amazing."
Wei Qipi didn't smile, "Lord Shen is a model for hundreds of officials." ”
In the verbal confrontation, Wei Qi couldn't get any bargains, so he no longer took care of Shen Yuan.
After a while, all the officials gathered, and the empress with the eunuch arrived, and the empress of Yaochi slowly fell on the dragon chair.
All the officials knelt together.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Zhongqing is flat."
"Today, what do you Aiqing have to play?"
"Your Majesty, Weichen has a book to play!"
"Wei Aiqing, what are you going to do?"
"Weichen plays, Prime Minister Shen Yuan, cruel and vicious, forcibly gouging people's pupils! Regard the laws of my Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty as nothing! ”
Before Shen Yuan could speak, another official immediately stood up above the court.
"Your Majesty, at this time, the prime minister intends to punish those who violate the precepts of the family, and the truth is understandable."
"Lord Wang's words are wrong, even if they are members of the Shen family, they can be regarded as citizens of my Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty, don't their Shen family have to abide by our Northern Qi Immortal Law?"
"Lord Fang, it is normal for someone in the family to violate the law and give a little precept, why make such a fuss?"
Seeing more and more officials speaking in the audience, the empress's brows couldn't help but twist into a Sichuan character.
These officials who spoke were either to help Shen Yuan exonerate him, or they were to help Wei Qi insist on dealing with Shen Yuan.
There is no neutral point of view at all!
This also means that the following officials have either been classified into the "Wei Party" or have been classified into the "Shen Party".
The situation of forming a party for personal gain is so serious, how can the empress be in a good mood?
"Minister, I have something to say."
Shen Yuan took a step forward and saluted.
The empress frowned: "Aiqing has something to say." ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen's move yesterday is really for my Northern Qi!"
"Oh?"
Shen Yuan turned around, facing the civil and military officials, his eyes were burning, he glanced at it, and the officials who had helped Wei Qi speak before couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Shen Yuan at all.
"Yesterday's incident, you must have heard about it, but after all, it's just hearsay, and you don't understand the reason, so let's explain it to your lords by yourself."
"There is no need to explain, everyone in the world knows that the Prime Minister has a clever tongue like a spring, and he has a three-inch tongue that is not rotten, this black, I'm afraid the Prime Minister can also say that it is white, right?"
The one who spoke was a loyal member of the Wei Party, Liu Gan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Shen Yuan didn't speak, but just glanced at Liu Qian meaningfully.
For some reason, when Liu Qian saw Shen Yuan's eyes, he always felt that he was being targeted by a terrifying poisonous snake.
Ignoring Liu Gan, Shen Yuan continued.
"Shen Xiao'er of my clan, betraying the family, the crime cannot be punished! I'm afraid you don't want to have such ungrateful people in your family all the time, do you? ”
"This kind of ungrateful person, it's not a pity to die, but the original appearance has remembered his love for so many years, and plans to let him go, but the Thousand Phantom Spirit Pupil is the foundation of my Shen clan's foothold, what kind of face can this kind of person who betrayed the family enjoy?"
"Out of desperation, the prime minister had no choice but to gouge out his eyes."
"But Shen Xiao'er is just a woman, and the prime minister is too cruel like this, right? The Prime Minister should know that since the founding of the first empress of the Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty, the laws of the Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty have always been lenient for women. ”
It was Wei Qi who opened his mouth, and he naturally would not let go of any opportunity to suppress Shen Yuan.
"Lord Wei's words are wrong!" Shen Yuan's face was indignant, and he clenched his fists to the sky, "I think of me as the founding empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Empress of Liuli, how heroic and sassy it is, thanks to him, I have the history of the Northern Qi Dynasty for five hundred years until now!" ”
"And the Liuli Empress, the biggest advantage is that she knows people and is good at her duties, and her subordinates are all loyal and righteous heroes!"
"Therefore, in the early days of the founding of the Liuli Empress, no one would abandon the Liuli Empress even if it was very difficult, because they were loyal and loyal!"
"And I'm ashamed, on the other hand, Shen Xiao'er of my Shen family, just for the sake of a man, decided to betray the family! This is completely in stark contrast to the courtiers of the Liuli Empress! ”
In this regard, the Prime Minister only wants to say that this kind of disloyal and unrighteous person has his eyes gouged out, and he does not deserve any sympathy! Today, if she can betray the family for a man, then one day, she will betray my Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty for some other reason! ”
"Unfaithful people, they are disloyal everywhere, and they will never change because there is one more man around them!"
"At that time, if she betrays my Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty for other reasons, what should I do with the five hundred years of national fortune of the Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty? After the nine springs of the original phase, what face will you have to see the Empress Liuli, and go to see the first emperors of the Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty! ”
As he spoke, Shen Yuan actually faintly had tears flashing.
The corners of the officials in the audience twitched, and they all said that Shen Yuan could pretend, but they didn't expect him to be so pretending!
You are so loyal to the Northern Qi royal family, I didn't see you like this when I killed those Northern Qi officials who disobeyed you before?
Now just a Shen Xiao'er, you have risen to the national fortune of the Northern Qi Dynasty for 500 years?
You're really good at!
