Chapter 7: Referring to a Deer as a Horse

Twenty years later, Qianyuan Palace!

Autumn is warm!

Countless black dragon flags were displayed in the wind on the square in front of the palace.

Yesterday, the new emperor of the Great Era ascended the throne, and a grand enthronement ceremony was held in the Qianyuan Palace, and the ninth son of the emperor, Li Zhaoyang, finally got rid of the identity of the prince for many years, followed the year name, and called "Emperor Yongxing".

This year is the first year of Yongxing!

Today, it is the first time that Emperor Yongxing has gone to court as an emperor!

On the huge square, the hundred officials stood still, and as the eunuch stood on the steps, he used all his strength and waved the whip three times.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

The whip exploded in the air.

The sound is harsh!

The hundred officials began to squirm slowly, and lined up in an orderly manner to enter the main hall.

Emperor Yongxing, dressed in a black crown robe, sat on the dragon chair, his eyes like knives!

The eunuch shouted: "Kneel! ”

The movements of the hundred officials are uniform, kneeling with a brush, and the forehead touches the ground:

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Yongxing looked at the hundreds of officials and courtiers in the palace who surrendered at his feet, and only felt that his heart was full of worship, and when he was really called the emperor, that kind of confidence spread from the inside out.

Emperor Yongxing's face was grim, and he raised his right hand slightly:

"All the ministers are flat!"

Hearing this, the hundred officials got up slowly and lined up on both sides.

The civil officials are on the left, the military attaches are on the right, and they are in good order.

It's just that at this time, the position headed by the civil official is vacant, and that is the position of Prime Minister Chen Chao. Since the Chen Dynasty was assassinated in the palace twenty years ago and was carried back to the house, he has not seen again.

The Prime Minister's Mansion closed its doors and no outsiders were seen, and only a few people were allowed to visit, including two Shangshu, Qin Xiangru and Yan Song.

Some people say that Chen Chao is seriously injured and will die soon, and others say that Chen Chao secretly planned a bigger conspiracy, which is enough to subvert the current situation.

In short, the people in the capital were panicked, and the officials could not sleep and eat.

"If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!"

With the opening remarks of the old eunuch's routine, the officials exchanged heads and whispered.

But in the end, no one stood up to speak, just when Emperor Yongxing thought that the first court meeting of his ascension to the throne was about to end so easily and happily, a confident voice suddenly sounded at the door of the main hall: "Minister, Chen Dynasty, there is a book to play!" ”

Chen Chao, the prime minister who had not been seen for many days on crutches, wore a bronzed crane purple robe and limped into the main hall.

He was accompanied by a young deer covered in round spots.

The combination of one person and one deer is really strange.

He came anyway.

Emperor Yongxing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, sighed in his heart.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his breathing was short, and he couldn't help but get nervous, not knowing what Chen Chao was going to do today.

The Chen Dynasty is in court today, and it will not be a good thing after all.

Chen Chao led the sika deer and slowly walked to the center of the main hall, Qin Xiangru saw this, and forcibly held himself back from laughing.

A few days ago, Xiangye summoned him and Yan Song into the mansion to talk about it, and proposed this method to humiliate the emperor, and their eyes almost fell to the ground in shock.

But I have to say that Xiangye's method is excellent.

Prime Minister Chen Chao has the last words of the old emperor, as the father of Emperor Yongxing, there is no need to bow and bow, and even have his own special seat when he goes to court.

Seeing Chen Chao enter the hall, although Emperor Yongxing was unwilling, he still had to come down to greet him in person, and asked Chen Chao to sit down on the chair on one side, "Yafu has not recovered from his serious injury, so he didn't have to come here." ”

Looking at the fake Emperor Yongxing beside him, Chen Chao bowed slightly, handed over the sika deer in his hand to Emperor Yongxing, and said:

"The new emperor ascended the throne, it is really my great luck, how can the minister not come?"

"Today, I am here to congratulate Your Majesty on the joy of enthronement, and to present a thousand-mile horse, I hope that Your Majesty will not waste martial arts in addition to the rule of the people, so as not to live up to the trust of the emperor."

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yongxing only felt that his breath was stagnant.

Then his body trembled uncontrollably.

The ministers looked at the so-called "divine horse", and their breathing became a little heavier.

"Prime Minister, this is clearly a deer." The minister, who didn't know it and hadn't turned his mind yet, came out and said puzzledly.

Chen Chao came to the center of the hall on crutches and waved his hand: "This is wrong, I Chen Chao thinks that this is a horse, a peerless horse!" ”

"It's a deer!"

"Horses!"

"It's a deer...," the man scratched his head.

"It's a horse!"

Chen Chao emphasized again.

The official could be regarded as reacting, sweat beads rolled on his face, and he quickly changed his words: "It's a horse, it's the old official who is dizzy." ”

Chen Chao nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at the young Yongxing Emperor, and asked knowingly, "What does Your Majesty think?" Is this a horse or a deer? ”

Threat!

Naked threat!

Emperor Yongxing sat back on his throne in humiliation with a dark face and gloomy face, his hands tightly grasped and hidden in his cuffs.

The anger in his chest almost drove him crazy.

His anger has reached its extreme!

Seeing this, Chen Chao no longer asked, but glanced at the ministers in the palace.

The entire Qianyuan Hall was extremely quiet, and a needle falling on the ground could be clearly heard.

Unlike the Chen Dang, who had a smile on the corner of their mouths and was complacent, most of the other civil and military officials lowered their heads and did not say a word. Only those hard-boned old ministers and military attachΓ©s all looked at Chen Chao angrily, eager to peel off his skin and cramp.

In the main hall, time passed minute by minute, and everyone had never felt that time passed so slowly.

The atmosphere is oppressive and frightening!

After a while, Qin Xiangru, the head of the household, held his big belly, walked out one by one, showed excitement and joy on his face, walked up to the sika deer, and exclaimed in surprise: "Ah, it is indeed a peerless horse!" This muscle, this color, a rare good horse in a hundred years....."

When the Chen Party heard this, they covered their stomachs and held their stomachs so hard that they almost laughed out of tears.

They finally knew why this fat man was reused by Xiangye.

"Your Majesty, this is a good horse for a thousand miles, only Your Majesty is so young and promising, only worthy of this good horse!"

If the eyes can kill, Qin Xiangru has already died thousands of eight hundred times in the eyes of Emperor Yongxing.

Emperor Yongxing's eyes fell on the deer, and he felt that it was a great irony!

It's just a deer, it's still a young deer, this is bullying the young!

A knot welled up in his chest, and Emperor Yongxing even had his hands and feet cold for a few points.

At this time, Yan Song, the secretary of the Criminal Department, also stood up, walked in front of the young deer, stroked it gently, and exclaimed: "It is really a peerless horse, Your Majesty, this is the first time that a minister has seen such a good horse." ”

"The prime minister has worked hard to find a good horse to present to His Majesty, and His Majesty should reward him heavily!"

As soon as the words fell, other members of the Chen Party stood up one after another, surrounding the sika deer and praising them:

"It's a horse, it's definitely a horse!"

"The prime minister's good intentions can be learned from heaven and earth!"

"Such a divine horse, traveling thousands of miles a day, only His Majesty's young talents are worthy of riding a divine horse!"

Everyone, you and I said a word, and the sika deer was put on the altar.

That's a horse!

It's a horse, and it's a maxima!

It is the prime minister who is looking for it, dedicated to His Majesty, and His Majesty should be rewarded!

Emperor Yongxing sat on the dragon chair, he didn't catch his breath, he only felt a sweetness in his throat, and almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Ridiculous, ridiculous!

It's ridiculous!

It's too much of a deception!

Chen Chao stood in the hall, looking at Emperor Yongxing's extremely angry expression, and only sighed in his heart.....

Little brother, you can't do this? It's just that this little humiliation and blow is almost gone?

More tricks that I haven't used yet?

If you want to be an emperor, you must first bear pressure beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Don't blame me, my false father is also for your good.

At this moment, a discordant voice suddenly sounded in the hall.

The man beat his chest and said angrily: "Presumptuous! Chen Dynasty! Chen Tu Dog! Do you still have Your Majesty in your heart? ”

Chen Chao was stunned and looked at this person.

The one who spoke was a little old man with white hair and beard, Fang Xiu, one of the four bachelors of Wenchang Pavilion, and also the teacher of Emperor Yongxing.

Fang Xiuqi's beard trembled, he couldn't stand steadily, and his eyes widened angrily:

"Chen Tugou! You refer to the deer as a horse, reversing black and white, absurd, simply absurd! ”

"Daji will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later, you are the sinner of Daji!"

"Adulterous! Treacherous! ”

"You form a party for personal gain, frame loyalty, and do all kinds of evil!"

"For ten years, I will not be a country, and the dynasty will not be a dynasty!"

"Today, even if the old minister dies, he will kill the thief!"

"Kill the thief!"
