Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Eight, my heart is a lesson 5
September 17th in the third year of Yuanding, early dynasty.
In the vast golden palace, the whole hall is full of the pillars of the country. After all the officials greeted the emperor, the imperial edict to reward Feng Duying, the greatest hero of the Northern Expedition, was not issued yet. Xuanbian stood out from the crowd: "Your Majesty, I have a letter of remonstrance to submit!"
"Present." Dong Shixiu's thick and powerful voice came from the throne.
The servant in front of the throne hurriedly stepped down the steps to receive Yan Xuan's letter of remonstrance.
"Today, when I see General Feng returning to the court safely, I am happy for the country, and also for the king. But I have to risk my life to speak out about General Feng's injury and disappearance." Yan Xuan, the servant, submitted the letter of advice to Dongshi When repairing his hand, he said solemnly, "General Feng is a hero and important minister of the country. If he is injured and missing, he must send someone to rescue him, but His Majesty has reported to the whole country for one person, working for all the subjects in the world. This king is absurd! There was a king in ancient times. Playing tricks on the princes of the world for the sake of a girl's smile is called a faint king; and now your majesty is a general who amazes the world's subjects, and it is not the act of a wise king!"
Yan Xuan's words were bright and upright, and he pointed directly at the current emperor and the high-ranking generals. The hall was silent for a while, but those slightly hanging heads were thinking about each other.
"Is Yan Qing accusing me?" Dong Shixiu's voice was flat.
"The minister is the censor, no matter the emperor or minister, and those who make mistakes, the minister should speak up and advise, so as to live up to your majesty and vassals as the censor!" Yan Xuan's answer was loud and loud.
"Oh?" Dong Shixiu's tone was still very calm, "Does Qing mean that I am a fool?"
"Your Majesty is a foolish ruler or a wise ruler. That is determined by His Majesty's merits and demerits in the country and the people, and will be judged by the people of later generations. The minister is the supervisor and censor, and he only advises His Majesty for the sake of the world!" Yan Xuan was fearless.
Dong Shixiu looked at His Highness Yan Xuan coldly while holding the booklet.
At this moment, another person from the palace came out, "Your Majesty, I believe that Lord Yan's advice is for the sake of the country and the people. Your Majesty should accept the harsh advice." , with clear eyebrows, is the head of the Feng family, "Marquis Ying", Feng Renran, who is also the eldest brother of Concubine Feng.
"I also think that Lord Yan's remonstrance is justified!"
"Your Majesty Yan's remonstrance is a good word, Your Majesty must not work the world for a general!"
"Your Majesty, the king of the country, every word and deed is related to the world, so you should be more cautious."
…
With Feng Renran taking the lead, officials who agree with him have emerged like a spring after a rain.
After hearing these remonstrances, the six brothers in the hall couldn't help but look at each other, and then they all remained silent, while Feng Duying's face sank like water.
Although Yan Xuan's remonstrance is not pleasant to listen to, the king of a country devotes all his power to search and rescue for the safety of a general. "The copy of the supervisory history. It's just that he was worried about Feng Duying's safety at the beginning, so he didn't care about these things, so he would face the advice of the officials in the palace, not only the brothers could not speak, even Dong Shixiu himself could not veto it openly.
And the ministers in the palace spoke one after another, seemingly endlessly.
"Bang!" A sudden loud noise came from above, shaking the hearts of all the officials. Standing upright in the hall, fearless of the might of heaven.
"I have received Yan Qing's letter of remonstrance." Dong Shixiu said coldly, "Do you have anything else to say?"
There was a moment of silence in the hall, when Dong Shixiu signaled the servants to issue the imperial edict, another person came out in a row, "I have a book to play." It was another supervisor, Yushi Guanxuan.
"Submit."
The imperial servant stepped down the steps and took Guan Xuan's playbook.
"I want to impeach Feng Ying, General Feng Duying!" Guan Xuan's words shocked the officials even more than Yan Xuan's remonstrance just now.
Yan Xuan is a well-known admonishment official in this dynasty. There is nothing to say at all. But at this moment, Guan Xuan wanted to impeach the current general, and it was General Fengying who had just made a great contribution and returned from a serious injury, so he uttered his words like a heavy stone hitting a lake, causing a huge reverberation in the hall. Some of the faces of the officials were serious, some were calm, some were smiling, and some were unpredictable, while the faces of the Huangti brothers were suspicious. Nan Pianyue even moved her body and was about to go out, but was held back by Hua Jingtai.
"Who does Guan Qing want to impeach?" On the throne, Dong Shixiu's words seemed to be forced out through his teeth.
Guan Xuan shook his head, looked quietly at Taichang Liang Duo, and seeing his calm and determined expression, he recalled his analysis and promise, and he became bolder, saying: "I want to impeach General Fengying. Feng Duying. General Feng On the way of chasing the King of the North Sea, he first miscalculated the enemy and allowed him to escape from the North Sea; then he acted bravely and ordered to chase the enemy even though the fishermen who knew the nature of the sea reminded him that there was a storm, so he was injured and fell into the sea. The soldiers of our army were caught in the danger of a storm. In the end, they chased the enemy to no avail, and let a ship of North Sea survivors flee. These three incidents alone show that he is incompetent as a general. I ask Your Majesty to remove his official position and the title of general. , and punish him severely!"
After Guan Xuan finished speaking, the hall was so quiet that the sound of each other's breathing could be heard, and all the courtiers in the hall were waiting for the reaction from above the throne. But the person who was impeached just stood in the hall with a blank expression, and never even glanced at the person who impeached her; while the six brothers in the hall were all furious when they heard the words, but secretly suppressed their anger.
After a while, Dong Shixiu's joyful and angry voice came from above the throne, "Thousands of miles away, I still know what the fishermen reminded me that day. Guan Qing has a heart."
The voice made Guan Xuan cringe, "I... I just told the truth."
"Oh?" Dong Shixiu squeezed the notebook tightly.
Seeing that Guan Xuan was timid, Liang Duo hurriedly came out and said: "Your Majesty, the reason why Lord Guan has this book is also for the sake of the lives of thousands of soldiers. I saved my life in the stormy waves, but those soldiers who shed their blood for my dynasty are incapable of doing so. Following a general who only cares about his own merits and does not cherish his subordinates will only make me lose my life innocently to the warriors. Therefore, Please think twice about your majesty's words."
As soon as Liang Duo opened his mouth, whether it was those who followed him, those who hated Feng Duying, or those who were dissatisfied with the emperor's favor for the seven generals, all of them in the palace posted comments one after another.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Guan's words are justified, but General Feng is arrogant and rebellious, making him unbearable to be a general."
"Your Majesty, General Feng is so disregarding the lives of soldiers, how can he be a general who commands thousands of troops."
"Your Majesty, General Feng is a general who is a woman, so he reversed yin and yang and brought disaster to the world."
…
The ministers said something to each other, and the hall was full of people's voices for a while, and there was an aura of vowing not to give up if Feng Duying was not dismissed today.
Nan Pianyue looked at the courtiers in the palace, almost half of them were impeaching Feng Duying, and his heart was full of shock and anger. If Hua Jingtai hadn't held him tightly and let him know that he should not be impulsive and make mistakes at this moment, he really wanted to be alone Knocked them all away with one punch!
The Huangdi brothers listened to the words of the courtiers and knew very well that standing up to speak for Feng Duying at this moment would only add more ground to the officials and make the situation more complicated and serious. It is absolutely impossible, and when they were thinking about it, Fengji suddenly remembered a book in his sleeve, and immediately they came out more and more, until they reached the steps of the throne, and raised their voices: "Your Majesty, I also have a book to play, and it is extremely urgent. Something." His voice resounded throughout the hall, but it was clear and smooth, instantly sweeping away the anxiety in the hall, making people feel refreshed like a spring breeze.
"Play." The voice was cold and harsh, making all the courtiers in the hall feel the emperor's accumulated anger.
"Qingzhou Jiecheng Mansion Yin sent an urgent report with the Xinghuo Order. There is a bandit occupying the mountain as the king of Jiuluo Mountain. It has injured innocent people and hundreds of soldiers. Please send your generals to suppress the bandits quickly."
As soon as Fengji finished speaking, Ning Jingyuan raised his hand and pushed Feng Duying to the imperial steps.
The officials were still in a daze, but Feng Duying understood what his brother meant, but he was full of indignation, and he really didn't want to bow his head at this moment, but he knew that Yan Xuan remonstrated that his elder brother was in the front, and Guan Xuan impeached himself In the end, whether it was a coincidence or intentional, at this moment the group of officials have seized on the "mistake of the emperor and the minister" to make use of the topic. If they do it willfully, it will not only embarrass the elder brother, but also take advantage of the villain's sentence "his nature is rebellious and unruly". ", had no choice but to suppress the humiliation and anger in his heart, and knelt down in front of the imperial steps: "Chen Feng Duying is willing to lead the troops to go..." A "sin and meritorious service" came to his mouth, but he couldn't spit it out. He gritted his teeth secretly, "to pay for Beihai Mistake!"
The officials came to their senses at this moment, but before they could speak, Dong Shixiu yelled, "Yes!" The voice was like thunder, and the whole hall was buzzing. Frightened, dare not make a sound.
"Although General Fengying made a small mistake in chasing the enemy in Beihai, he still deserved his merits. Now he is allowed to go to Jiuluo Mountain to suppress the bandits, so as to make Jiecheng peaceful!"
The emperor's majestic and powerful voice came down, some of the officials bowed their heads knowingly, some looked at each other secretly, and those who tried their best to impeach Feng Duying quietly turned their eyes to Liang Duo. Liang Duo glanced at Fengji, and raised his eyebrows, but he also knew that if he wanted to see a good deal at this moment, he would let it go. If he pushed the emperor into a hurry, he might be the one who would suffer in the end. After all, all these years, their five major families have also followed the emperor, so they naturally know the emperor's protection of his younger brothers and sisters. Anyway, Feng Duying has been taken out of the imperial capital and sent to the border areas, and His Majesty has prevented her from rewarding her. Fortunately, she shed blood for the conquest of Beihai this time, but in the end she had to pay the bill and make meritorious service. Thinking of this, he smiled imperceptibly, and shook his head indistinctly.
Dong Shixiu, who was sitting on the throne, was no longer interested in listening to the courtiers' melodies, "Today's court meeting ends here, retreat!"
"Your Majesty will be sent off respectfully."
