Chapter 228 The Silent Wei Yuan

Dafeng capital.

Since the mission to Chuzhou returned to Beijing, the entire Dafeng was instantly detonated like a flammable and explosive gunpowder keg, and the storm suddenly rose and the situation changed.

Seven days have passed since King Zhenbei's body was transported back to the capital.

In the past seven days, the cabinet, Dagengren, Dali Temple, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of War, the honorary family, the royal family, etc. have been fighting in full swing.

There is no mysterious Si Tianjian, they have never participated in court disputes, and this time is no exception.

All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the royal family members, it is really you who sing and I come on stage, but since Emperor Yuan Jing gradually regained his senses, the struggle to convict the King of Zhenbei has gradually slipped into an inexplicable and indignant track.

In this battle of "justifying more than 36 wronged souls", the structure of the radical civil servant group is complicated.Some people do it for fame and fortune, while others follow the trend.

The radical faction was headed by Wei Yuan, the commander of the watchman, and Wang Zhenwen, the chief assistant of the cabinet.

The main idea of ​​this faction is to demote King Huai to a commoner and hang his head on the city for three days in order to pay homage to the 38 innocent souls in Chuzhou City.

This was strongly opposed by most of the royal family, a small number of civil servants, and honorable groups.

The royal family members naturally understand well, status determines the position, once Duke Huai, who is also a member of the royal family, is convicted, it will be an unimaginably huge blow to the reputation of the entire royal family.

Then, a group of civil officials who wanted to be in power, or who were not in a good situation, secretly reached an exchange of benefits with Emperor Yuan Jing, spoke for him, and became his weapon.

As for the last honorable group, the rights all benefited from the grant of the royal family. Like the royal family, they are the owners of the rights of the entire country and the defenders of vested interests. Without the royal family, there would be no them, so it goes without saying that they will naturally get close to the royal family.

Therefore, even if there were people in Xungui who disagreed with Duke Huai and Emperor Yuan Jing, most of them would remain silent.

All in all, the opposition's claim is that King Zhenbei can die, but he cannot be convicted, and the royal family cannot lose face.

But among the people, the people in the capital are already used to this kind of thing. As the residents at the foot of the emperor, they have never seen anything, so they are quite well-informed.

Of course, there is no major event in the capital recently, and the heat of this matter is still there. After dinner, it will be discussed by the common people. After all, it was once the patron saint of Dafeng, the former No. The Witch God Sect massacred hundreds of thousands of people under its rule.

It's really unbelievable, and I can only curse insanely.

In fact, they were even more interested in another person, Chu Linyang, who was said to have killed King Zhenbei, the leader of the monster and barbarian clan and other powerful people in Beijing Town, and was hailed by good people as the number one martial artist in Dafeng today.

Chu Linyang, the prince of Marquis of Wu'an, was originally unknown, but he destroyed the conspiracy of the Witch God Sect during his trip to Yunzhou; The monsters and barbarians who had ravaged Dafeng Chuzhou for hundreds of years were cleaned up one by one. Since then, the monsters and barbarians in the northern border have become history.

The legend about this person has aroused heated discussions among the people in the capital.But Chu Linyang is very mysterious, and he can be called a dragon who sees his tail but never sees his head, which is regretted by the common people.
-
"Did you really kill King Zhenbei?"

"I killed it."

"Auspicious Zhigu from the barbarian clan, Zhujiu from the monster clan, and the mysterious wizard from the Witch God Sect were also killed by you."

"Yes, I killed them too."

"."

In the main hall of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, the Marquis of Wu'an Chu Tianwu, who was dressed in a vigorous outfit, carefully sized up the calm-faced big boy in front of him with an unbelievable gaze, with a little horror remaining on his face.

The life and death of the four third-rank masters were spoken out of his mouth as easily as four ants.

He asked himself that he had known countless people in the officialdom for many years, but now he couldn't understand how big he was, didn't he know what kind of turbulent waves he caused, and the whole Kyushu would be rewritten by him.

He wasn't that surprised by the shocking strength that could kill a third-rank expert. After all, Wei Yuan was only young when he was promoted to the second rank. It is not uncommon for a genius to appear on his own son.

"Is there anything else you want to ask, Father?"

Chu Linyang asked with a flat face.

"What's going on? Tell me well. You didn't communicate with me as soon as you got home a few days ago. Do you know that if you are not careful, our Chu family may be doomed!"

Chu Tianwu frowned for the first time, and shouted loudly.

King Zhenbei is the younger brother of Emperor Yuan Jing, there are some things that others don't know, how can he not know.Although King Zhenbei deserved his crime, the pressure to kill King Zhenbei is unimaginable to others.

"I've already told you that I just met at the right time. Simply put, I just met. You have to ask the embassy or Chuzhou chief envoy Zheng Xinghuai for specific matters. Besides, isn't our Chu family all right now, father?" , you don’t have to worry, everything is under my control.”

Old man Yuan Jing couldn't hide from me, and he dared to come to the door by himself, thinking too much. Chu Linyang said disdainfully.

"You bastard, don't worry about me. Can I not worry about you? You are my son, and it's only right for me to worry about your father! Royal family, just two words, do you know how many souls are buried there? Hey, don't think you If your strength is high, you will be fearless, no matter how high you are, can you surpass Jian Zheng!"

Chu Tianwu's heartbroken expression attracted Chu Linyang's interested eyes. It was the first time he had seen his father like this. It seems that the matter of King Huai really made him, a strategizing general, a little panicked. .

Chu Linyang hesitated for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, he said with uncertainty: "Jianzheng, maybe it's okay."

Wuchang Chutian sighed, he didn't take the meaning of the eldest son to heart at all, suddenly realized and said:
"By the way, I was also confused by you. Just three days ago, His Majesty suddenly sent a decree. Because of your merits in fighting against alien races, you were suddenly promoted from a white clothes to a marquis. When you were not there, I will replace you." You take it."

Then he thought suspiciously: "According to what I know about our Majesty, he shouldn't have the current attitude towards our Hou Fu."

It's obvious that Yuan Jing is blocking my mouth, a marquis, are my eyelids so shallow, Chu Linyang, I just want to get rid of me for this little thing, and there is no door.

Chu Linyang was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled maliciously: "Then you and I will be equals from now on."

My son and I are on equal footing. You have a good idea. I, Chu Tianwu, can't afford to lose this man. Chu Tianwu replied angrily: "It's a pity that I disappointed Lord Chu. Thanks to you, your father and I I have been promoted to Duke, but at the same time the command of the Imperial Army has also been handed over."

Oh, and Dad is a Duke, so the price is not low. The whole family of Dukes in Dafeng is less than ten fingers. Those are good brothers who made great contributions to the Wuzong uprising 500 years ago.

In other words, from then on, the Chu family became the top dignitaries in the entire Dafeng.

And the old man Yuan Jing who wished for my death and had to appease me at the same time, was probably going to vomit three liters of blood in his heart at the moment, and was extremely sad and angry.

But I have to admire him as an emperor, he is so skillful in his use of power and tactics, and he can see people's hearts clearly. Most people really can't stand the sweet dates he stuffed, but it's a pity that he still underestimates me Chu Linyang, I want both your life and title.

When he came back to his senses, Chu Linyang glanced at Chu Guogong, cupped his fists and joked:
"Congratulations to my father for being promoted to the Duke of the state, to honor the ancestors."

Then he said solemnly:

"As for the military power, it's insignificant, insignificant, and you are light without an official. You can just take this opportunity to add more bricks and tiles to the family. Our family is good in everything else, but the number of people is too small."

"I'll beat you to death, you little bastard, and make fun of your father, when you cry."

Chu Tianwu couldn't laugh or cry, but his mood was no longer as heavy as before.

After pondering for a while, he asked some quizzes: "Tell me, should we protect ourselves wisely or stand in line with Duke Huai's matter?"

"It's up to you. Uh, what's the attitude of the rest of the nobles?"

Chu Linyang originally answered without thinking, but when he saw his father's dangerous eyes, he changed his words in an instant.

Chu Tianwu restrained his expression in an instant, nodded slightly, and said: "At present, most of them are wise and safe, but some of the more important ones are on His Majesty's side, such as Cao Guogong."

After finishing speaking, there was a trace of undisguised disgust towards Cao Guogong on his expression.

"Well, I think the conclusion should be settled in a few days. For now, let's wait and see what happens."

Chu Linyang said lightly.Anyway, he has already met Yuan Jing, and according to Chu Linyang's plan, he will not be able to survive the end of this month, so stop tossing and tossing, and let the old man make soy sauce.

Chu Tianwu nodded slightly when he heard the words, he didn't know what he was thinking in his meditation, but he didn't say any more.

This pair of father and son are doing ordinary things to punish the nine clans, but they don't want each other to know.

"By the way, father, what is the title of Marquis that Emperor Yuan Jing gave me?" Chu Linyang asked suddenly after taking a sip of tea.

"Jump Champion!"

Chu Tianwu rolled his eyes for a long time, then shook his head slowly, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see that he was the champion of the three armies, and he had never been in the army at all. This title is really a waste.

"Champion Hou!"

Is this going to curse me to die young? It seems that Yuan Jing has changed from bright to dark, and has become more dangerous. I can't stay here anymore. Chu Linyang narrowed his eyes and secretly sneered.
-
Hit the more people's Yamen, Haoqi Building.

In the tea room, Chu Linyang and Wei Yuan sat cross-legged in front of the table facing each other. The whole atmosphere looked relaxed, harmonious and peaceful.

After leaving the "far gate" and returning to the capital, Chu Linyang naturally wanted to meet his dear Uncle Wei. Recently, the clouds and winds in the court have been treacherous, and Wei Yuan is in the center of the storm. Feel the pressure.

The purpose of Chu Linyang's visit this time was to give him peace of mind.

At this moment, Wei Yuan was wearing a Tsing Yi embroidered with sky-blue cloud patterns, his long hair was simply tied up with a green hairpin, his image was chic and easy-going, matched with his handsome facial features and vicissitudes of eyes.

A middle-aged handsome man's charm rushed to his face.

Compared with Chu Linyang, his appearance and temperament are inferior, but the eyes that have been precipitated by the years are killing Chu Linyang instantly.

However, I don't know if it was because of the unfavorable situation in the court, Chu Linyang could see that Wei Yuan's heart was a little heavy in front of him, which was very rare in Wei Yuan, and his expression could be seen on the outside.

"That child Qianrou is very pitiful. Although he is eloquent and cynical on the surface, I know that his heart is actually gray and lonely. I will replace wine with tea to thank you for finding his sister and making him 'live' again .”

Wei Yuan picked up the teacup, raised his hand slightly, and signaled.

Chu Linyang was stunned for a moment, glanced at Wei Yuan, raised his hand as well, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will accept this gift, he is your adopted son, Uncle Wei, so it is appropriate."

After taking a sip of tea with each other, Chu Linyang seemed to say with emotion: "The Dafeng Dynasty is not as good as every year. When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer."

Prosperity, people suffer; death, people suffer.

Wei Yuan chewed on this sentence with a serious face. This sentence is very easy to understand, but cruel but true, shocking, almost unforgettable, and makes people unable to calm down for a long time.

"I went to the Northern Territory, and I expressed my feelings, which made Uncle Wei laugh." Chu Linyang said lightly.

"Are you blaming me for giving up on pursuing the sins committed by Duke Huai?" Wei Yuan shook his head and asked with a complicated expression.

Chu Linyang said calmly: "Uncle Wei is joking, don't you often say that you have to think twice when you are struggling in the officialdom: think about danger, think about retreat, think about change."

"Before doing something, you must consider the consequences of this matter, understand the pros and cons, and then weigh whether to do it or not."

"If the trend of Gun Gun is unstoppable, you have to think about retreating and avoiding its edge. Only when you retreat and are safe, can you think about how to change the situation."

"I'm afraid of you, Your Majesty can't die now, there are powerful opponents besides Dafeng." Wei Yuan said helplessly.

Wei Yuan is good at planning, he likes to hide behind the scenes and advance slowly, most of the time, he only depends on the result.In order to achieve the goal, the loss and sacrifice in the process can be tolerated.

"Haha, Wei Gong, a dignified second-rank martial artist who has the intention of breaking the formation, is being manipulated by others. This is simply a big joke." Chu Linyang laughed loudly, and the pretense seemed a bit rampant, but Wei Yuan was not fooled. .

"I am a human being, and as a human being, I have weaknesses. Besides, it is not a shame to be controlled by the most powerful person in Dafeng." Wei Yuan Gulan said without wave.

"What is Yuan Jing threatening you with, Witch God Cult?" Chu Linyang asked lightly.

Wei Yuan didn't comment, and said flatly, "You don't need to worry about it."

Chu Linyang nodded, and said affirmatively, "That's the empress Shangguan Xixue?"

Wei Yuan took a deep look at Chu Linyang and fell silent, as if turning into a sculpture for a while.

Chu Linyang shook his head secretly, the idea of ​​protecting Shangguan Xixue has become Wei Yuan's lifelong obsession, as long as the queen is in hand, Yuan Jing can control Wei Yuan to death.

"I don't fumble around in the officialdom, but I don't care whether I think twice or not." Chu Linyang sneered as he put his teacup on the case.

Looking at Wei Yuan's eyes, Chu Linyang smiled: "Don't worry, lovers will eventually get married, I understand!"
