Chapter 177: The Great Concert in the Jinluan Hall (1)
In the sixteenth year of Xia Guotiance, just at the beginning, it ushered in a turmoil, Gu Qingci, the sword prince who was born, and Ma Dongyang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the Dynasty, the friction between the two has spread to the community, and the battle of Wangjing completely started Gu Qingci's name, and with Gu Qingci's resignation into Beijing, the entire Xia Kingdom began to pay attention to him.
Ma Dongyang's decline made many people wake up suddenly, this Gu Qingci, who has always been regarded as a younger generation, suddenly seemed to have crossed a little fast, and Mr. Wufeng appeared last night, which frightened many people, does it mean that there will be another giant in the capital.
The beginning of Tiance's sixteenth year belongs to Gu Qingci.
Mo Shangren is like jade, Gongzi is unparalleled in the world, so that everyone is full of curiosity about him, the white shirt of Gongzi is like a palace, accompanied by a little luster of the rising sun, it looks so holy, the Jinluan Hall is magnificent and magnificent, dozens of purple and gold dragon pillars, hundreds of ministers stand solemnly, and they can't help but set their eyes on this young man.
When Gu Qingci slowly arrived, these ministers in the court couldn't help but sigh, what a strange person is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world!
Emperor Xia sat on the dragon chair and also looked at Gu Qingci, although he had seen Gu Qingci before, but Gu Qingci at that time was just an ordinary jinshi, there would be every few years, sometimes when Enke was opened, and even every year, and Gu Qingci at that time did not have anything outstanding except for the arrogant and virtuous style of that article that made Emperor Xia look slightly sideways.
However, in just a few months, Gu Qingci suddenly emerged, even if he didn't investigate, he could often hear this name, which also made him think of this young man in his mind from time to time, but he didn't have much impression, but this also made him even more curious about Gu Qingci.
Now, Gu Qingci walked slowly, with a gentle temperament and a graceful demeanor, Emperor Xia was also a little amazed like the ministers below, and many people secretly looked at Ma Dongyang and Ma Zhibai, father and son.
Gu Qingci's expression was indifferent, taking in the expressions of these people, he deeply understood that this was what strength brings, if he put aside the identity of the sword master, there would be a few people who would be able to notice him.
"Minister, Gu Qingci, see the emperor!"
Gu Qingci slowly walked to the front in the crowd, bowed to the Xia Emperor above the Jinluan Palace, the monarch and the minister, but did not kneel and bow, this is the privilege of the Xia Kingdom to scholars, as long as it is a jinshi, he does not kneel when he sees the emperor, as long as he has a meritorious name, he does not kneel when he sees an official. However, if you are a martial artist, you can only have the privilege of being a great cultivator.
It was not the first time Gu Qingci had seen Emperor Xia, he had seen Emperor Xia before, but he had no chance to speak head-on, but now, he could see clearly that this was a middle-aged man who looked gentle, but in fact he was a truly qualified emperor.
Emperor Xia smiled slightly and said, "Aiqing is exempt." β
Gu Qingci straightened up and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty." β
Emperor Xia nodded lightly and said, "Aiqing doesn't have to be so formal, speaking of which, you are a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven and a disciple of me, so it's a little bad to be so born!"
As soon as Emperor Xia said this, the expressions of everyone in the court changed slightly, and Gu Qingci was also convinced, in this battle, he won, Ma Dongyang was defeated, although he didn't know what happened in the palace last night, but Gu Qingci knew that the emperor had already made a decision, or announced a decision that had already been made.
Gu Qing saluted and said, "Minister, please play if you have something!"
Emperor Xia knew that the drama was coming, so he nodded and said: "The minister sued Ma Dongyang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, for abusing his power, using his power for personal gain, and deceiving his superiors and subordinates. β
"More than half a month, the dead and wounded were miserable, more than 4,000 soldiers buried in the snow, but no one gave up, everyone persevered to the end, so that the city was in the people, the city was dead, many soldiers did not sleep, and finally insisted until the reinforcements arrived. β
"Whether they died on the battlefield, or left a serious wound, or those who were lucky enough to survive, each of them is a hero, every one of them is a good man of my Great Xia, they shed blood for the people of Great Xia, and they deserve to be praised by thousands of people in Great Xia. β
"However, Ma Dongyang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, only cares about his own selfishness, uses his power, and forcibly transfers the credit for this battle to his son Ma Zhibai, in order to cover up the truth, he sent killers to assassinate me three or four times, and it was not until last night that the minister learned that Lianchen's mother and younger brother were arrested by Ma Dongyang and were ready to threaten me!"
"Minister, today I sued Ma Dongyang in the Jinluan Palace, not for myself, only for the souls of the thousands of soldiers who died in the war, only for the thousands of families left behind by the thousands of soldiers, they need the support of the court, they should be supported by the court, they are all martyr families, but in order to expand the credit of Ma Zhibai, Ma Dongyang erased the credit of many people, and thousands of soldiers who died in battle have been nameless since then. β
"Minister, I implore the emperor to let the souls of many soldiers in heaven rest in peace. β
Gu Qingci's fierce words made everyone in the Jinluan Hall a little surprised, but the emperor didn't speak, and no one would speak, but everyone looked at Ma Dongyang.
Emperor Xia also looked at Ma Dongyang and Ma Zhibai, and said, "Two Qing families, what do you say?"
Ma Dongyang hurriedly stood up, knelt on the ground and said, "Minister, confess!"
Ma Zhibai also stood up, knelt on the ground, and said, "Minister, confess!"
Emperor Xia nodded, and said loudly: "The Book of the Criminal Department, how should this crime be sentenced?"
No one thought it was weird, and Gu Qingci didn't think it either, because everyone present knew that Ma Dongyang entered the palace last night, and the prelude to the palace today was right, but it was just a formality, and the result was already doomed, and there was no need for any investigation.
The criminal department Shangshu was listed and said: "Ma Dongyang did use his power to seek personal gain, but Ma Dongyang has been in the court for many years and has worked hard, and the minister feels that he should be deprived of his official body and return to his hometown, and as for Ma Zhibai, he is greedy for merit, so he should be exiled for 3,000 miles to the Bohai Sea to see the aftermath!"
The emperor nodded slowly and said, "Someone, the proposed ......"
"Slow," Gu Qingci suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the minister still has something to play!"
Emperor Xia frowned and said, "Quasi-play!"
Gu Qing said loudly: "The minister sued the criminal department Shangshu for vacating his position and not fulfilling his duties. β
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this fire to suddenly burn on him, after all, he was just acting according to the emperor's wishes, and he didn't believe that Gu Qingci couldn't see it, so he hurriedly said: "Lord Gu, you have to pay attention to evidence when you speak, this is the Jinluan Palace, not a busy city!"
"Hehe," Gu Qingci sneered, looked at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and said, "Since you are in charge of the laws of the Criminal Department, then let me ask you to use your power for personal gain, deceive your superiors and subordinates, and even send assassins to kill people and kill people, and even arrest the families of meritorious officials for no reason, is this just a matter of personal gain can be overshadowed?"
