Da Cang night watchman

Chapter 322

Du Yuting was shocked: "Why did the general say that..."

As soon as his voice raised, the other lieutenants were all startled...

Li Xiaotian glanced across the faces of several lieutenants in front of him, and said slowly: "Brothers, I want to bid farewell to everyone! This farewell will be forever!"

"General, why?"

"General..."

The deputy general was in a mess in an instant, everyone was in a hurry...

Li Xiaotian waved his hand lightly: "Brothers, I don't need to hide it now! There is no military order from above to dispatch troops this time, and the Commander-in-Chief and the Superintendent have not left Dragon City. They were imprisoned by me in the black prison."

The seven lieutenants all turned pale with shock...

Imprisoning the commander in chief, forcibly seizing military talismans, forging military orders, setting off the swords of the two countries...

What kind of sin is this?

The crime of punishing the nine clans!
"General, you...how dare you do this?" Du Yuting's lips trembled.

Li Xiaotian let out a long sigh: "The court is fatuous, and all officials are afraid of war. We can't wait for hundreds of years for the court to recover the military order of the four towns! If I don't take this desperate strategy, how will the four towns be recovered? How can the dead rest in peace? How can the Great Cang avenge his shame? Why did Dasumi wolf's ambition be cut off? Brothers, guard here, I will return to Dragon City and let him deal with it by military law!"

Li Xiaotian soared into the sky, straight up to the sky, and a poem floated down:

"It's snowing heavily at the border for ten days, and it's hard to cry for a thousand years of achievements. I will follow one policy with one life, and I will never leave any hatred to see the world of mortals!"

"General!" The seven lieutenants knelt down to send each other off, tears streaming down their faces...

……

Dragon City exploded!
The capital is fried!
The palace is fried...

Lin Su immediately received a call from Zhang Haoran's official seal, and was completely stunned...

Li Xiaotian actually imprisoned Zhou Ze, the commander-in-chief of Longcheng, forged an order to leave Longcheng, fought bloody battles for ten days and nights, wiped out the [-] Dayu troops from the four towns in the north, broke Helan Mountain, and planted the Dacang Army Flag on the top of Helan Mountain .

Four towns, just recover like this?

Li Xiaotian, I never thought that you would be so decisive.

Zhang Haoran sighed deeply: "He once said that all 380 and seven relatives of his family died at the hands of the Dasumi Army. His only goal in this life is to become a nightmare for the Dasumi Army. When I was about to die, I didn’t intend to come back alive.”

The teacup in Lin Su's hand trembled slightly, and a crack slowly formed...

Lvyi and Sister Chen stood far away in the corridor, their faces pale...

"What did your Majesty say?" Lin Su said in a deep voice.

"At present, the imperial decree has not been issued, but his end is already doomed! Imprisoning the commander-in-chief is an unforgivable death crime! Forging military orders, sending troops out of Longcheng without edicts, and provoking swordsmen from both countries, all together, the nine clans will be punished together. No one will be spared!" Zhang Haoran said: "After tomorrow's court meeting, it will be time for Fa-rectification!"

"Okay! I'm going to Beijing right now. At the Great Court Meeting, I'll fight for his chance!"

"No!" Zhang Haoran sternly shouted: "Grandpa's analysis, tomorrow's court meeting is not only a death sentence trial for Li Xiaotian, but also a vicious trap for the main fighters. Anyone who steps on it will have a narrow escape..."

With a click, the teacup was shattered, the official seal was cut off, Lin Su soared into the sky, and went straight to the sky...

Sister Chen and Lvyi looked at each other, unable to stand still...

There was a slight knock at the door of the other room, and one person fell to the ground, but it was Cui Ying.

When Sister Chen helped her up, Cui Ying's face was full of tears, and she held onto Sister Chen tightly: "Sister Chen, the four towns are back, I...I wish to see it so much, but Mr....however, Mr. Facing the entire court, facing the situation of narrow escape, what should we do..."

Sister Chen was in a state of confusion, but seeing the helpless expressions of Lvyi and Cui Ying, she forced herself to calm down: "Don't worry too much, although tomorrow's event is dangerous, but my husband has always been impeccable in his actions. Since I plan to make a move, I must have already thought about it." retreat..."

Cui Ying and Lvyi calmed down a bit, but something happened to the old lady. When the old lady heard the news, she collapsed. Sister Chen rushed to the main hall again to comfort the old lady. Baoshan, Ding Daru, Ren Taiyan, and Yang Zhifu came at the same time. Their purpose was to keep Lin Su and prevent him from getting involved in this troubled water, but they came a step late. All the Confucian scholars were all pale. This state once again aggravated the old lady's worries, and the entire Lin Mansion was in a mess...

Sister Chen comforted this, comforted that, and when the night fell, she finally collapsed herself, leaning softly on the bed, closing her eyes and praying for the husband...

……

The eleventh day of the first lunar month, the capital.

The court meeting is about to begin.

There are three kinds of Dacang Dynasty Hui, Dachaohui, Yuechaohui, and Sunchaohui.

The so-called Great Court Meeting, there are three fixed times a year, and several random times, which three times are fixed?The New Year's Grand Court Meeting is held on the [-]th of the first month; the Spring Festival Grand Court Conference is held during the Spring Festival in March; the Autumn Festival Grand Court Conference is held during the Autumn Festival.

The Great Court is different from the general court.There are far more people than the general court meeting - as long as the capital officials are above the fifth rank, they can go to the court, this is the law of the Great Cang.In general, the moon dynasty and the sun dynasty are limited to the heads and deputy positions of each ministry, and they must be at least three ranks to be eligible.

The Dachaohui said that the fifth rank and above can go to the court, but it didn't say that it must go to the court, but this is not important. As long as the Beijing officials are in Beijing, who doesn't participate?

This is an excellent opportunity to meet the emperor. You have been an official for a lifetime, and you have never even seen the emperor's face. How dare you hang out in the officialdom?So, just after the ugly time, officials from all walks of life left their respective mansions and went to Hongnian Hall.

In front of the Hongnian Hall, before dawn, a large group of officials had already gathered, and a large area was covered in darkness.

At three o'clock in the ugly hour, the sky was already bright, and when a ray of sunlight rising from the east lit up a corner of the high cornice of the Hongnian Hall, a golden bell rang, and the door of the Hongnian Hall was slowly opened, and officials entered the venue one after another.

There are two teams, the ones in the front are senior officials in purple robes, and the ones in the back are senior officials in red robes and green robes. The team on the left is headed by Prime Minister Lu Tiancong, and the team on the right is headed by Zhang Juzheng, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Zhang Ju was just before entering the hall, his eyes fell back, and he shot at the rear of the team, he let out a light breath.

For some reason, he was worried about seeing a young face in the team, but fortunately, he didn't.

But when he took the last step into the Golden Palace, he suddenly felt something in his heart, he turned his head suddenly, the sky moved, a figure came down through the sky, and landed at the end of the team, Zhang Juzheng's heart sank suddenly!
You bastard, are you really here?Originally, you didn't have to come, but you just wanted to come!
You were in Haining yesterday, and you rushed to the capital overnight. You arrived in less than a day after a journey of [-] miles.
Zhang Juzheng's already heavy mood turned bad for no reason.

The team moved forward all the way, and Lin Su followed the team slowly into the hall.

He stood at the back because he was the lowest official among the participants of the Great Court Conference.

The fifth-rank official just stepped on the line of qualifications for participation.

Looking from the back to the front, there are so many people, there are thousands of people!
There is a famous saying in that world, if you don’t come to the capital, you don’t know your official rank. In this world, it seems to be applicable. There are too many officials in the capital, but Lin Su is somewhat relieved that he is more senior than his official at a glance. Although there are many people here, most of them are gray-haired, and there are very few young and handsome people like him.

Oh, by the way, the person in front seems to be young and handsome...

He turned his head slowly, and smiled lightly at Lin Su, who also smiled: "Baldy Qiu, your hair has really grown back..."

The person in front is obviously an old friend, Qiu Zixiu.

Qiu Zixiu said indifferently: "Brother Lin's casual jokes should be corrected. You need to know that there are laws and regulations in the officialdom, and officials should be a model of etiquette."

Lin Su said: "It's okay, your official position is not higher than mine, teasing you is not teasing the superior."

"Yes! You and I are both fifth-rank officials now! But Brother Lin, you still remember that at the Jinshi Banquet last year, there was a difference of two ranks between you and me..."

"Of course I remember. Brother Qiu, I understand what you mean. You have been promoted two levels this year, and I have not moved. Although I started higher than you, you improved faster than me, is that so?"

"Yes! Maybe this time next year, I will be your Shangguan!"

"Oh? Will you be promoted this year? Congratulations!" Lin Su said, "But I don't know what achievements Brother Qiu has made in following His Highness the Crown Prince, so that he can rise to the top like this."

"I don't dare to be credited for my merits. I am loyal and diligent, and do my duty with all my heart. That's all."

Lin Su nodded: "It turns out that merit is not important, what is important is obedience... I am really worthless for His Royal Highness, why should I raise you? It would be great to have a dog, who is more obedient than you and can even wag its tail. "

Qiu Zixiu's face suddenly turned black...

A group of people stepped into the Golden Palace, and the team began to change. There were still two people in the front, Lu Tiancong and Zhang Juzheng, and the senior officials behind them changed from a vertical row to a horizontal row. Each row ranged from three to forty people, a total of three or four In the tenth row, although Qiu Zixiu and Lin Su were in the last row, they were already separated. Qiu Zixiu stood on the far left, while Lin Su stood on the center line.

In the middle is a wide passage, paved with red carpet, which is the passage for His Majesty to go up.

Although thousands of people were present, the Golden Palace had its own majesty, no one made any noise, everyone stood quietly, even a few white-haired old men stood there tremblingly, but they still didn't dare to move a little.

A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour...

At the moment of Yinshi, the golden bell rang, and a loud shout came from a distance: "Your Majesty, drive!"

At the second quarter of Yin time, the golden bell rang again: "Your Majesty is coming!"

At three quarters of Yin time, the doors of the three halls were slowly opened, and eighteen eunuchs lined up on both sides, bowing to greet each other...

"Your Majesty enters the palace, and all the ministers kneel to welcome him!"

Thousands of ministers knelt down at the same time, and His Majesty took a big step, walked from the middle passage to the end of the golden hall, and sat down on the dragon chair.The prince and several princes entered through the side door and sat on the second floor under the dragon chair.

"Everyone is flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty! My emperor is approaching the court in the new year, and the sky will be full of prosperity!"

Lin Su's eyes widened. Damn, so neat?Have you rehearsed?Fortunately, I didn't intend to shout anything at all, and I was caught in the crowd to make up for it. Otherwise, I would shout long live, long live, long live, wouldn't that be bad food?

The emperor is wearing a fine attire today, the kind with bead curtains on his head.

His face was flushed, and he was very beaming.

The emperor said: "Dear dears, the Chinese New Year is auspicious!"

"Auspicious Your Majesty!" Everyone responded at the same time, but Lin Su was just pretending...

As soon as the emperor said a few words on the table, there was something to start playing, and there was a posture of retreating if there was nothing to do.The New Year's Grand Court Fair is quite different from other grand court meetings. Today's Grand Court Fair is typically loud with thunder and little rain.

At this moment, Zhang Wenyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something to play!"

"Oh? What's the matter with Zhang Aiqing!"

A voice suddenly came from Lin Su's ear: "No matter what happens, keep silent and don't make trouble!"

The voice was peaceful, but full of endless majesty, it was Zhang Juzheng's voice, separated by a distance of more than ten feet, and separated by a bunch of literary, moral and Confucian scholars, he did not turn his head, and the voice was accurately sent to Lin Su's ears.

Lin Su's heart skipped a beat, here we come!

Zhang Wenyuan said: "On New Year's Eve, Li Xiaotian, the general of Dragon City, made a sudden attack. He imprisoned Zhou Ze, the commander of Dragon City, forcibly seized the military amulet, forged military orders, and mobilized fifty thousand flying dragon troops to leave Dragon City at night!"

His Majesty's expression suddenly changed!
The faces of all the ministers in the hall also changed. Ninety-nine percent of them really didn't know about this matter, and only a few core figures at the top knew about it.

After the report was over, there was an uproar!
His Majesty Longyan was furious, and the bead curtains creaked softly...

Zhang Wenyuan knelt down with a bang: "Da Cang's military law, those who imprison the commander without mercy, will be killed without pardon! Those who forcibly seize military amulets and forge military orders, the nine clans will be punished together! Veteran, please order, punish the nine clans of Li Xiaotian!"

Zhao Xun, the doctor on the right, took a step forward: "What Mr. Zhang said is shocking! Da Cang has never heard of it for thousands of years. It is simply daring and a heinous crime! This son must be deprived of his fame immediately, and the nine clans will be punished together!"

Lin Su's heart suddenly brightened!

He knew the root cause of Zhang Wenyuan's attack on Li Xiaotian by taking the opportunity of the Great Court Meeting today.

Li Xiaotian is a holy Jinshi!He is a nominal person of the temple, almost equivalent to an outer disciple of the temple.

To kill him, there is one step that cannot be bypassed, that is, he must first be deprived of his fame, and depriving him of his fame can only be done by one person, that is Zhang Juzheng.

Kill Li Xiaotian brightly, and point the sword at Zhang Juzheng!
Zhang Juzheng is in a dilemma at the moment.

If he opposes the court official's proposal, he is against the law of the country.

If he obeyed the court official's suggestion and really deprived Li Xiaotian of his fame, then he would be the one to kill Li Xiaotian, his reputation would be tarnished, and he would stand on the opposite side of Lin Su.

Zuo Kuanzhou stood up, deprived of fame, and punished the nine clans!

Zhou Yunzhi, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, stood up, deprived of fame, please punish the nine clans!
Li Zegang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, stepped forward...

In just half a quarter of an hour, none of the six ministers of the court was missed, and they all expressed their opinions, deprived of fame, please punish the nine clans!
Zhang Juzheng's eyes were slightly closed, as if fascinated by things.

It wasn't until His Majesty's eyes fell on his face that he seemed to have a sudden sense and opened his eyes...

At this moment, a different voice sounded in the Golden Palace: "Qi Zou Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"

As soon as the sound came out, although it was not loud, it covered the whole hall.

The hall was suddenly silent, and everyone's eyes were turned to the source of the voice. The voice came from the back of the line. A slender young man appeared in the middle of the passage and bowed to His Majesty.

Zhang Juzheng's heart sank suddenly, because he didn't need to look to know who it was.

Lin Su!

He finally came out!He has been warned twice, and he is still ahead!
