Chapter 377: Broken Arm
Chapter 377: Broken Arm
Originally, the two of them had discussed that they would entertain these big and small officials in the imperial court at the residence of Lord Shangshutai of the Criminal Department, so that they could follow the two of them with all their hearts, and when they were caught in the capital, they would be able to quickly resolve the sentence and convict those people as soon as possible, and sentence those people as soon as possible! Who knew that now the matter had exceeded the imagination of the two of them, and even reached an uncontrollable situation.
This time it was the first time that the two of them were in charge of the court, the two scholars of the Criminal Department and the Military Department, who had been officials in the court for so many years, encountered the most headache and helpless thing for them!
Although it is not the two of them who have offended others, but their relatives who have offended others, they are just a temporary negligence, and now they will definitely burn the fire on the two of them, which directly leads to their total loss now, this time the neglect may be able to shake the foundation of their business in the court for many years!
Because of the relatives of the two Shangshu adults, they have offended the current emperor, and they are the celebrities around the current emperor, maybe this person is the current emperor who put him outside and let him come out to "have nothing to do" and "have nothing to do"!
In any case, these two lords of the Criminal Department, Shangshutai, Chunfengtai, and the military department, Shangshu Wu, have completely changed their previous views on the current emperor! That is, the current emperor hides in the deep palace all day long, does not ask about the government affairs, and leaves everything to the ministers in the imperial court to handle.
What's more, looking at the emperors of all dynasties and dynasties in history, that emperor is not the seventy-two concubines of the three palaces and six courts, but the current emperor of their dynasty has not even established a queen until now, let alone three palaces and six courts.
After the emperors of all dynasties sat firmly in the country, they had to choose concubines and gather the beauties of the world to serve the emperor in the palace.
Recently, the eunuchs in the palace have been rumored that there is a princess in the emperor today, who lives among the people, but they have already recognized each other, and it is also said that the emperor has a woman who loves for ten minutes, and it turns out that Nangong Feifeng, the hall master of the No. 1 killer organization "Xiaoyue Hall" in the rivers and lakes!
mentioned Nangong Feifeng, the hall master of "Xiaoyue Hall", all the officials who were officials in the court were talking about the tiger's color change and feeling cold;
Including Lord Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department, who is a high-ranking and powerful person who has the power of life and death, and Lord Shangshu Wu of the Military Department, who is decisive in killing and holding heavy troops, they are also very jealous and taboo of this No. 1 killer organization "Xiaoyuetang", as long as the word "Xiaoyuetang" is mentioned, they will have a chill on their backs!
Because the crown prince emperor of the previous dynasty had sent many generals and tens of thousands of troops to prepare to go to the "Xiaoyuetang" lair and exterminate the "Xiaoyuetang", who knew that they were repeatedly defeated, and in the end, several first-class officials in the court were stabbed to death in their own mansions and official residences in different ways and within one day!
This incident caused a sensation in the entire court at that time, and everyone was in danger, and from now on, no one dared to take the initiative to exterminate the "Xiaoyue Hall".
A few days ago, Master Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department received a letter from his younger brother Tai Chunyu, saying that he was beaten by a group of rogues on the rivers and lakes for no reason in the "Guest at Home" inn in his hometown, and maybe it would be life-threatening. You dare to fight the younger brother of Lord Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of my Criminal Department, you are not a mob or a people, what are you? Aren't you just a group of rabble, a plate of scattered sand, there are so many hundreds, thousands of people, why do you come out to bluff and show off your might, what are you people in the eyes of Lord Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of my Criminal Department?
You are just a swarm of ants, and the Lord of Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of my Criminal Department can pinch and kill you all as soon as he stretches out his hand!
After receiving the letter from his younger brother Tai Chunyu, Lord Shangshu Tai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department immediately sent an official of the Criminal Department to find the Master Wu of the Military Department who was decisive in killing and holding heavy troops, and asked him to send troops to suppress these ignorant mobs and Diao people, and the edict also explained that these mobs and Diao people, if they could be caught, they would be taken to the capital, and if they couldn't be caught, they would be killed on the spot!
This high-ranking and powerful Master Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department, who has the power of life and death, never thought that the person offended by his own brother would be the current emperor's "Loyal and Brave Marquis" martial arts alliance leader A San Shaoxia.
Now this very serious problem is placed in front of these two Master Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department and Master Wu of the Military Department, and they also know that if this matter is not handled well, it may be a devastating blow to their careers, and if it is not handled convincingly, they will talk about it in a small way, dismiss the official and return to their hometown, and in a big way, even the Nine Clans may not be able to say it.
"Lord Tai, this matter is already imminent, tomorrow maybe the entire court will know about it, if the emperor asks about this matter today, then the two of us will be in big trouble!"
"Lord Wu, this matter is really not considered by Tai, let you follow Tai to worry about your brother!" This Master of the Criminal Department Shangshu Tai Chunfeng said: "But this official has already thought of a perfect plan, and this official thinks that no one can make a fuss about this matter!"
"Master Tai, forgive Wu for being cautious, may I ask Lord Tai what countermeasures do you have? Please speak out and let Wu hear!" Lord Wu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, turned around and sat in the position where he had just sat and looked at the meeting hall of the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, which was still crowded and full of people just now, but now it is empty, and there is no lively and extraordinary scene just now, Lord Wu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed and continued: " Taiwan people, we have been officials in the same hall for so many years, we have always taken care of each other, supported each other, ups and downs, right and wrong, and at the same time, we have also walked cautiously and on thin ice to this day, which is not easy, so we must be cautious in everything we do!"
"Lord Wu, it's really not good, Tai Mou can only survive with a broken arm, and give up his pawn to protect the handsome!" Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department showed a ruthless smile on his face and said to Lord Wu of the Ministry of War: " This disaster is the disaster of the younger brother, of course, let him bear it himself, whether he is dead or alive, it depends on his creation, if he can survive by luck, the official will let him live in seclusion in the mountains and forests from now on, if he is unfortunately killed by the emperor this time, as the saying goes, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, and then our two brothers will find a way to avenge the brother!"
"Do you want to push your own brother out?" Lord Wu, the secretary of the military department, looked at the angry Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department with an angry face and said, "Have you thought about it, your brother is your only relative in this world, can you really bear to do this?"
"Alas, Lord Wu, Brother Wu, do we have any other way?" Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department walked up to Lord Wu of the Ministry of War, gently patted Lord Wu of the Ministry of War, and said: "No matter what, as long as the two of us do not fall, there is a possibility of turning the tables, if the two of us fall, what is the use of him staying in this world?
"Master Tai, your brother is still clothed, how can he be compared with the two of us?" Lord Wu, the secretary of the military department, shook his head and said: "Even the two of us in the court can't solve the things that the first-class officials in the court, he can't do anything with the cloth!"
"Buyi, Buyi, Buyi, Lord Wu, you were talking about Buyi just now, are you hinting at this official something?"
"Master Tai, do you mean to find the 'Marquis of Buyi' Qin who has looked for us many times?" Lord Wu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, continued secretly: "Buyi has asked someone to find this official several times, and the trustee said that as long as you join their mysterious organization, we will succeed in the future, and we will both be the words on the forehead of the tiger!"
"This official has also had someone to convey the meaning of Buyi, but this official is already a scholar of the Criminal Department, and there is no need for the official to be involved in his right and wrong, but now it is not what it used to be, and the official of the younger brother's life can't watch him being asked and beheaded!" Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department said worriedly: "Everyone has a selfish side, Lord Wu, are you right?"
"Why did the emperor seal a hussar general in that 'Hutang Town' today, this official thinks that the emperor's starting point is to check and balance Buyi!" Lord Wu said: "The spy envoy of the Ministry of War has come to report that a large number of men and horses of Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general of 'Hutang Town', are slowly advancing in the direction of Buyi.
"Could it be that we have all been deceived by the emperor? The emperor ostensibly does not ask about the government and hands over the government to his younger brother Seventh Prince, but in fact he is trying to find a way to cut the feudal domain? Or what Bu Yi did, the emperor has long taken precautions, but it has not come to the right time, Lord Wu, what do you say?" Lord Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department suddenly felt that he was the most clumsy in the world. The most stupid person, because for so many years, he has always thought that the current emperor is a mediocre emperor who does not do his job properly and ignores the government, if these things said by Lord Wu of the Ministry of War are true, isn't that a slap in the face? Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs fell into deep thought, and after a while, he continued: " Lord Wu, since the situation is so complicated, we can only take a wait-and-see attitude, the two of us can't easily rely on Buyi now, if he loses the battle, then don't we both lose everything?"
"Lord Tai, what this official means, the two of us must be cautious in doing things, and we can't give anyone a handle on the two of us!" Lord Wu, the secretary of the military department, said: "There is an urgency, and this matter is best handled tomorrow, otherwise we will really lose everything at that time!"
"Lord Wu, since the younger brother has been escorted to Dali Temple, the two of us might as well go to the emperor now and explain the ins and outs of the matter to the current emperor clearly!" Lord Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department said: "If you wait until tomorrow, who knows what will happen in this night?" As the saying goes: There are many dreams at night, or there are extraneous branches, don't wait for others to go to the emperor to tell everything about it, if the two of us go again, the emperor will have a preconceived impression, and it will be very unfavorable to the two of us at that time!"
"Lord Tai, you are really a high opinion!" said Lord Wu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, "If you think about it carefully, it is also the case, if others talk about this matter first, the emperor will definitely have a preconceived impression, it is better for the two of us to go and invite the emperor now, and listen to what the emperor thinks about this matter today!"
"Okay, very good, let's go to the palace quickly!" The master of the Criminal Department Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai said loudly: "Come on, prepare a sedan chair, rush to the palace overnight, this official has something important to meet the current emperor!"
So Lord Shangshutai Chunfeng Tai of the Criminal Department and Lord Wu of the Ministry of War, did they achieve their wishes when they went to the emperor?
