Chapter 81: The Imperial Council
Although he killed Li Yan, a minister of the imperial court, Gao Shun and Bai Susu were not too flustered, the most important thing was because of their confidence in the strength of the Ning family today
Unless the imperial court sends a large army to encircle and suppress it or the general Chen Yan personally takes action, but this possibility is too small, so small that it is very small.
"Childe will definitely show up in Luoshui City when he goes to participate in the Shizi assembly, and I will call Li Ran over later to inform Childe of this matter. Gao Shun said: "At the same time, we will send some people to pay close attention to the movements of the imperial court, and the attitude towards this matter is especially right."
The attitude of our Ning family, I think Qiu Minghai will definitely take advantage of this to make more fuss, and most of them will directly point the finger at our Ning family. ”
The faces of the four of them were silent, although several people were not too worried about their own comfort, but this matter was also more tricky, the minister of the Qin mission died, the court would definitely be angry, and the matter was indeed done by Ning Shan, the only good news was that there was no evidence left in this matter
However, this does not mean that you can sit back and relax, Qiu Minghai will definitely use this to deal with the Ning family, there is no doubt about it.
"Anyway, now that the matter has come to this point, we can only come to the army to block it, and the water will come to cover it, but the death of the minister has nothing to do with us at all. Gao Shun emphasized that Li Yan's death could not be acknowledged.
"Well, this can only be done in this matter, in order to avoid showing our feet, the business of the restaurant continues, but just in case, we must also be fully prepared. Bai Susu added: "As for other matters, let the guards go to Luoshui City to find the husband and settle the matter."
Tell your husband that everything will be decided by your husband. ”
In the end, the four of them discussed, Ning Shan and Gao Shun left to arrange the next things, Bai Susu went back to the backyard to find Bai Xue, because after all, Ning Shan would kill Li Yan this time, and Bai Xue's words played a vital role, the first time
, Bai Susu felt a little unable to see through the snow.
On the other side, Tang Renjing had also written a report, asking his officials to send it to the imperial court, and the minister of the Qincha died, which was not a trivial matter, and he certainly couldn't hide it, but he only wrote that the grass was rampant in Chenxian County, and the minister was unfortunately killed by the bandits, and even beaten by Ningshan
Li Yan's paragraph was also omitted by him, because he intended to set aside the Ning family in this matter
Eight days later, Yedu, Zaochao, court-
"Zhongqing has something to play, and nothing to retreat. Zhu Ji sat on the throne and said lightly.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do. Qiu Minghai walked out of the crowd, bowed down and said, "Last night, the minister just received news that Li Yan and Li Tingshi were killed on the way back to Beijing from Chenxian. ”
Qiu Minghai's words fell, and the already silent court became even quieter, and then there was a buzz, causing a big wave, Li Yan's official position is not low, and this time his identity is special, he went to Chenxian County as a royal court to relieve the disaster, to a certain extent, Dai
The face of the court of the table!
But now, you tell me that Li Yan is dead, isn't this a disguised slap in the face of the imperial court.
Zhu Ji's bland face also became a little gloomy.
"What the hell is going on. ”
"The minister also just received a message from Tang Renjing, the magistrate of Chenxian County, last night, saying that Master Li met a bandit on the way back to Beijing, and he was dead when he found it. Qiu Minghai reported, but his eyes were a little gloomy, because Li Yan was the person he sent down, specially
Dealing with the Ning family, and it is a person from his family, now that Li Yan is dead, this is something he did not expect.
"Bandits are rampant. An old minister with a white beard stood up and said indignantly: "Your Majesty, robbing and killing the imperial court, this is the first time since the founding of the Great Liang, we must arrest these thieves and behead them to show the public, otherwise why should I be the wind of the Great Liang." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks what Master Fu said is very true, in recent years, grass has been rampant, and now even the officials of the court dare to rob and kill, and they are getting bolder and bigger, and they must be exterminated. ”
Another minister stood up and said bluntly, but the other ministers looked at this person with the same face as if they were idiots, because this thing can't speak at all, what is called the grass has been rampant in recent years, doesn't this mean that zhu ji has no way to govern, although in fact it is
That's it, but this kind of thing, just understand it in your heart, and if you still say it, you won't be afraid that Zhu Ji will give you small shoes.
Sure enough, hearing the minister's words, everyone obviously felt that Zhu Ji's gloomy face was even more gloomy, and the eyes of the minister who had just spoken were a little cold.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that these thieves are bold and reckless, dare to rob and kill the officials of the imperial court, and it is not a pity to die naturally, and they must be exterminated, but Tang Renjing, the magistrate of Chenxian County, is also inseparable
, which should also be punished. ”
Another minister jumped out, his face was not good-looking, but the spearhead was pointed at Tang Renjing, this is Mr. Li, Li Yan's brother.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are different, Lord Li's words are biased, although Li Tingshi died in Chenxian County, but now there are no bandits in which county, and as far as the minister knows, compared to other counties, Chenxian is in good order under the rule of Tang Renjing, and it is definitely not what Lord Li Zong said, Tang
Renjing is a mediocre person, and Weichen believes that the top priority is to exterminate those bandits as soon as possible. ”
"Your Majesty, Chen has something to say. At this moment, Qiu Minghai spoke again, stepped forward and bowed and said, "The minister thinks that the assassination of Li Tingshi this time is too strange. ”
"Oh, how to say. Zhu Ji looked at Qiu Minghai.
"Back to Your Majesty, although it is evil to rule the grass now, but to say that there is a dare to rob and kill the ministers of the imperial court, the minister does not believe it very much, the minister thinks that there must be a hidden secret in this matter, and someone deliberately robbed and killed Lord Li on the road. ”
"At the beginning of Lord Li's trip to Chenxian, the minister once told Lord Li that he wanted him to thoroughly investigate the matter of the snake demon monks, especially the Ning family, but now that Lord Li has not returned, he was killed on the road, and the minister feels very suspicious. ”
"You mean to say that Li Tingshi was killed, and it was the people of the Ning family who did it. ”
Zhu Ji looked at Qiu Minghai and stared.
"Wechen is just guessing. Qiu Minghai was neither humble nor silent, and there was no emotion on his face.
"Is Master Qiu too suspicious, why do I sound like Lord Qiu is deliberately targeting. At this time, Chen Yan, who was next to him, spoke.
General Chen thought about it a lot. "Qiu Minghaidao.
"Hmph. ”
Chen Yan snorted coldly and didn't say more, although he felt that Qiu Minghai intended to target the Ning family, but now that the minister of the imperial court is dead, no matter who it is, he will be punished, and at this point, his position is very clear, standing on the side of the imperial court.
On the throne, Zhu Ji's face was gloomy, his fingers tapped, and finally said-
"Master Li, as a minister of the imperial court, was ordered to send a messenger, and it is not clear that he cannot die, no matter who it is, whether it is a thief or someone else who deliberately assassinates him, he must thoroughly investigate this time, once it is found, he will be killed, and this matter will be handed over to Qiu Qing to be responsible. ”
"Yes. ”
"Alright, that's it, Sanchao. ”
