Chapter 544: Acting for the Duke of the Kingdom
When the emperor said this, the hall was silent.
The officials who can go to the palace to participate in the New Year's celebration will not be fools, so they can naturally feel that something seems to be wrong with the situation.
"Could it be that the emperor is going to announce something important?" several dignitaries glanced at each other.
"Proclaim it. The emperor lifted his eyelids, looked at these people below, and said lightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Zhao Gonggong responded, and immediately a little eunuch came over with a roll of yellow silk holy decree, Zhao Gonggong took it with both hands and stood in front of him.
"Duan Yanxing takes the order!"
Duan Yanxing, who was in the queue of hundreds of officials, only felt that his head was buzzing, his face became pale, he didn't dare to delay, he came out of the team and knelt on the ground: "Minister Duan Yanxing respectfully listens to the holy oracle!"
After saying this, Duan Yanxing's blood was cold, cold to the bone marrow, and in an instant, the entire hall became dead silent, and only the minister's breathing could be heard.
Zhao Gonggong's face was expressionless, and his voice was not in a hurry.
"Fengtian carried the emperor's system and said: Duan Yanxing, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, was a military attache of the third grade, in charge of the forbidden army, and should have set an example for the ministers, but he ignored the emperor's favor, bought and sold officials, prostituted and prostituted, murdered for money, murdered officials, and used power for personal gain...... I deeply hated his crimes, and I should be severely punished according to the law, and I ordered to be dismissed from office and sent to prison, waiting for the fate, and I admired it!"
In this holy decree, Duan Yan practiced seven sins, and as soon as the holy decree was recited, Zhao Gonggong said lightly: "Take it!"
The guards guarding the hall rushed up, only to see a guard unceremoniously waved his hand, and the hat of the third-rank official was swept off, and the two reached out and grabbed it, and dragged one of the military attachés from the third rank down on the spot.
Duan Yanxing has martial arts, if he struggles, a few guards may not be opponents, but when the holy decree is read out, his whole person seems to have been drained of strength, and he was dragged out, his face was even pale, and his legs were soft into mud, until he looked up and saw the emperor who was looking at him coldly, he seemed to wake up from a trance, and shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the ministers are loyal to you, and there are no two hearts, and the ministers are wronged!"
I can't think of what his imprisonment has to do with it, then he has really been in vain for so many years.
The emperor's eyelids drooped slightly, his face was wooden, motionless, watching him being dragged out, just glanced at Zhao Gonggong, and Zhao Gonggong's body bent a little more, indicating that he understood.
Tonight, after the torture, he will be given death to this Duan Yanxing.
"It's really stupid, the forbidden army is the emperor's last line of defense, anyone can collude with the kings, but the forbidden army can't do it, even if it's just a little sign, you must kill a hundred people. ”
"As for King Qi, although there is no punishment in the open, the Holy Favor will drop a lot. ”
King Qi is the emperor's son, in fact, he usually messes around, and the emperor is also angry for a while, but he will not really drop many saints, but this time, it is different.
King Qi also felt a chill in his heart, he knew that something was wrong when he heard the disposition just now, and when he saw Duan Yanxing dragging it down, he couldn't help but tremble all over.
For a while, the silence in the hall could even hear a needle, and the ministers did not dare to come out of the atmosphere, and some of the new ministers were the first time to see the disposal of the generals, thinking that they were heroic and respectful in peacetime, and suddenly fell into mud, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
There are even some ministers who are well-informed, and they heard that Duan Qin was arrested when he met with Steward Chen of the Qi Palace, and when he saw Duan Yanxing busy in front of the palace, he thought he had misunderstood, but the emperor made trouble on the spot and dragged a military attache from the third grade down at the scene of the New Year's celebration, which is enough to show that the emperor has been furious, and he doesn't care about today's important celebration.
"Let me also read a copy of the decree, and when it is read, I will give a feast." Sitting on it, the ministers below, together with the reactions of their sons and the prince, were all taken into the eyes of the emperor, especially the expressions of his three adult sons, the emperor's face was indifferent, as if the scene did not exist at all, and said to Zhao Gonggong.
"The slave commands. Gonggong Zhao quickly took out another holy decree, and said in a shrill voice: "Daihou Ji Zizong receives the decree!"
"Sun Chen takes the order!"
"Fengtian carries the emperor system and says: Since the founding of Taizu, Da Zheng has ruled the world with filial piety, and the Hou Ji Zizong is solemnly called, diligent and benevolent, filial piety is in nature, there is no loss in the subway, Qing Cao is aimed at life, and he does not slack off, which is really an example for the clan, and he is awarded the book treasure, and he is promoted to the prince of the country, and he adds 2,000 households to eat, and he is here!"
actually rewarded the acting marquis as the acting prince!
It is also said that it has great filial piety, and the number of food towns has increased to 3,500!
This is not just a small threat, but a big threat to the kings!
You must know that a household can receive 0.75 stone a year, and the original Daihou was 1,500 households in Shiyi, that is, 1,125 stone of rice a year, which is almost the treatment of the second grade, but now it is 3,500 households, more than doubled, even if there is no other input, these alone can make the Daihou ...... No, now that he is acting as the Acting Prince, he can already make the life of the Acting Prince's Mansion much more comfortable.
Not to mention, how long did it take to jump from Daihou to Daiguogong?
It's been less than three months.
Although the promotion of the prince is already fast, this is too fast, it is just a picture of a thousand blessings!
"Father's eccentricity!" all the kings couldn't help but feel angry in their hearts, and hung their heads slightly at the bottom to hide the jealousy on their faces.
When they were first sealed, they survived year after year, and they never had been as fast as their nephew!
It's just opportunistic, the King of Shu and the King of Lu are nervous, is this the treatment of the grandson?
The prince's son is not the same as himself?
However, King Qi was the most violent and impulsive of the three adult princes, but because Duan Yanxing was dragged down just now, he was already panicking now, even if he heard that Su Ziji was rewarded as the Duke of Acting Guo, he didn't dare to open his mouth to object.
Unexpectedly, King Qi didn't speak, but the emperor spoke first: "King Qi, I have made the Marquis the Acting Prince, what do you think?"
What can I think? King Qi was asked so directly, his heart sank, and he reluctantly smiled at his father, who was at the top, and said: "My father is wise, and it must have taken a lot of thought to promote the prince of the country, and the sons have no opinions. ”
Is there none, or is there no dare to have?
The emperor sat on it, his expression did not move, and he just said lightly: "That's good." ”
At this time, the atmosphere between the father and son really made outsiders frightened, originally the military department Shangshu Gongxin also wanted to report to the emperor about the friction at the border pass, seeing this, his eyelids suddenly drooped, and he looked at his nose and nose and mouth, and he didn't say a word.
Just like the palace steward should also take a look at the mood of the king of Qi when he reports to the king of Qi, to be a courtier to the emperor, not only to be an official, but also to figure out the intentions, otherwise it is likely to make meritorious service and invite trouble.
Today is obviously not the time to talk about political affairs, and Gong Xin, the secretary of the military department, has already thought about reporting to the emperor at another time.
"Give a feast!"
As soon as the order was given, Zhong Lu rang in unison, and in the music, the hundred officials thanked him, and the eunuchs of all sizes carried the square table, ran under the east corridor, and carried thirty tables of neatly arranged dishes into the hall and set up seats.
