Changning Palace, Qinzheng Palace.
"Long live, long live, my emperor."
All civil and military officials bowed down together, and the mountain shouted long live.
"Everyone loves to be flat."
Xiao Ji seemed to have completely dissipated his anger, and motioned for all officials to calm down with a blank expression.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
All the officials worshiped again, then got up, left Wen and right Wu divided into two shifts.
Afterwards, Lian Yi, Xiao Jichong's internal servant, nodded slightly. Lian Yi understood, and then raised his voice and screamed:
"Xuanlin Yiguo's envoy Li Li has an audience."
All the officials in the palace were immediately refreshed, knowing that today the emperor will formally deal with the Jiaozhou Army's unauthorized attack on Lin Yiguo.
Many of them went to the memorial to implore the emperor to severely punish Qi Wang Xiao Jie, who is the governor of Jiaozhou, but there has been no news from the palace. Everyone thought that the emperor would forcefully suppress this matter like last time, but Unexpectedly, today the emperor would hold an emergency court meeting for this matter. It seems that His Majesty is determined to end this matter today, but he doesn't know how he plans to deal with his son.
Of course, they are so concerned about the impeachment of Qi Wang Xiao Jie, they are not really complaining about Lin Yiguo, but who is called Qi Wang is too popular now, if he is not suppressed, how can the prince they support have a chance? Into the East Palace.
Soon, the guards led Li Li, Prime Minister of Lin Yiguo, to the hall. His footsteps were like the wind, and he was obviously extremely excited and nervous.
On the day he left Champa by boat, there was news from the border. The Jiaozhou army had broken through the city of Wuwei and was advancing towards Champa. Now it is unknown where they have reached. Will the soldiers and civilians of Lin Yiguo persist until he sees him? Emperor Ningguo.
It was only after he came to Beijing that he found out that the current governor of Jiaozhou was actually the son of Emperor Ning, King Xiao Jie of Qi. This made his heart sink. Would Emperor Ning really punish his son for a vassal state?
And the development of the matter was just as he expected, although Emperor Ningguo promised to give him justice verbally, but after so many days passed, there was no news from the palace, Li Li felt that the Emperor Ningguo was obviously favoring him son.
Fortunately, he has not been idle in the past few days, and he has visited the ministers of Ningguo everywhere, hoping that the other party can write a letter to speak for Lin Yiguo. To his surprise, many people agreed, and some even wrote in front of him. Memorial to the impeachment of King Xiao Jie of Qi.
Of course, Li Li is not a master who doesn't know what's going on, and his thanks don't just stay in words. Many people finally accepted the generous gift he brought with a half-pushed face...
My hard work for so many days has not been in vain. Emperor Ningguo is probably under the pressure of so many courtiers. Today, he finally called an emergency court meeting temporarily to deal with this matter, but he does not know how he will deal with his son.
Li Li forcibly stabilized his mind, bowed his head, and said in a very respectful tone: "Your Majesty Li Li, see His Majesty the Emperor Daning."
Xiao Ji looked at Li Li who was kneeling in the hall, but there was an unpredictable smile on his face, and he said coldly: "Your envoy is wrong, what is His Majesty the Emperor of Daning, shouldn't he be His Majesty the Emperor of the Northern Dynasty?"
Li Li shook his head, raised his head and looked at Xiao Ji in disbelief, his eyes were full of horror, how could Emperor Ningguo know the Northern Dynasty's statement.
All the officials were also in an uproar, each with puzzled faces, not knowing what Xiao Ji meant.
We must know that the Southern and Northern Dynasties began when Di Huyu Wenbu entered the Central Plains, Emperor Zhou was the emperor of the Northern Dynasty, and Emperor Liang was the emperor of the Southern Dynasty.But since Daning Taizu Wu Emperor Xiao Yan replaced the Liang Dynasty and destroyed the Zhou Kingdom to rule the world, there is no longer the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and there is only one emperor in the world.But I don't know why His Majesty actually called himself the Emperor of the Northern Dynasty today, clearly degrading his status and value.
Li Li pretended to be calm, and said with a dry smile: "His Majesty the Emperor Daning was joking. The so-called sky has no two suns, and the country has no two masters. There is only one emperor in the world. There is no such thing as the emperor of the Northern Dynasty."
Xiao Ji laughed back in anger, and said coldly: "There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two lords in the country. I can't see it. In Champa of your Linyi Kingdom, isn't there another Emperor Fan Long of the Southern Dynasty?"
Hearing Xiao Ji directly utter the name of his monarch, Li Li's face turned pale for an instant, obviously understanding that Emperor Ning already knew everything.
All the officials turned their attention to Li Li, confused and angry, obviously they didn't understand that Linyi was a vassal state of Daning, and their monarch was just a vassal of Daning in terms of etiquette. How did it get involved with the emperor of the Southern Dynasty?
Li Li felt the gazes of the ministers, and felt distressed in his heart.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a dynasty in the Central Plains called the Qin Dynasty. At the height of its national power, it crossed Jiaozhou and expanded all the way to the south. It established the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan, and also passed on the advanced Han culture here. .But after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains fell into civil strife, and the three counties took the opportunity to kill the local Han officials to become independent. Among them, Jiaozhi County established the Dayue Kingdom, and Jiuzhen County and Rinan County established the Linyi Kingdom.
Later, Dayue Kingdom was repeatedly destroyed by the Central Plains Dynasty, but Linyi Kingdom escaped disaster because it paid tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty in time.
However, Lin Yiguo claims to have been influenced by the culture of the Han family. Although he has always bowed his head to the Central Plains Dynasty, he has always considered himself a branch of the Central Plains Dynasty. You have to address the monarch as the emperor in the letter, and the documents and announcements issued by the monarch on weekdays also call themselves "Zhen", and even the title and wording in the palace are no different from the emperor of the Central Plains.
Even the successive monarchs of Linyi Kingdom followed the suzerainty system of the Central Plains Dynasty and forced some weaker surrounding countries to pay tribute to Linyi Kingdom, satisfying Linyi Kingdom's self-proclaimed "Southern China" dream.
It is precisely because Lin Yiguo is located in the south and there is no information. The Central Plains dynasty has changed. I don’t know how many emperors have changed, but they have not been able to discover the tricks played by Lin Yiguo.
Li Li couldn't figure it out either, after being fooled for hundreds of years, why did Emperor Ning discover this matter today.
But this matter is absolutely unacceptable, Li Li can only grit his teeth and speak hard to the end: "His Majesty the Emperor Daning, I think there must be some misunderstanding? Our Linyi Kingdom has always served Daning devoutly, and we never dare to have second thoughts. "
"It's a misunderstanding, it's a pious service, it's not daring to have two hearts, I think you won't die until you see the Yellow River, and you won't cry when you see the coffin."
Xiao Ji laughed back in anger again, and said to Lian Yi who was beside him: "Eunuch Lian, order someone to bring the things up, I want to see what else he has to say."
Lian Yi nodded, and winked at a little eunuch, the little eunuch understood, and then ran out of Qinzheng Hall quickly...
Not long after, two guards walked up to Li Li carrying a box, and dumped the contents in front of Li Li.
Li Li immediately recognized that these seemed to be the official documents of Lin Yiguo, his heart was shocked, and a terrible thought came to his mind——
Has the capital and even the royal palace of Linyi Kingdom been captured by the Jiaozhou Army? Otherwise, why would these official documents belonging to Linyi Kingdom appear in the court hall of the Daning Dynasty?
But Li Li could no longer think about it, his face was pale, he picked up a memorial with trembling hands, flipped through it, his eyes darkened, and he almost passed out...
But he didn't dare to faint, just kowtowed to Xiao Ji again and again, weeping bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the king was confused for a while, please forgive Lin Yiguo, Your Majesty."
"Confused for a while?" Xiao Ji said with a gloomy expression, "I don't know how many generations of monarchs of your Linyi Kingdom have been emperors of the Southern Dynasty for hundreds of years. Now tell me that you are confused for a while?"
Li Li just kowtowed and begged for mercy, not daring to make any more sophistry.
All the officials in the palace finally understood it one by one, good fellow, Linyi Kingdom is just a small country in the south, and the monarch dares to call himself the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty in secret, and stand side by side with our Emperor Daning. His heart should be punished.
At the beginning, when Li Li went to Beijing to accuse the Jiaozhou Army of attacking Lin Yiguo for no reason, everyone still felt sorry for Lin Yiguo's experience, thinking that Xiao Jie, the king of Qi, who was the governor of Jiaozhou, was simply lawless and lawless.
But now it seems that King Qi is playing well!Where is he bullying the weak and small vassal states? He is clearly attacking dissidents and maintaining the dignity and national prestige of Daning.
Xiao Ji looked at Li Li, who was kneeling and begging for mercy, without a trace of pity in his eyes, and said coldly: "The sages have said that a small country should not be humbled, power should not be afraid of the strong, rudeness should insult big neighbors, and greedy people should not be humbled." Those who are reckless and clumsy will die. Since you Lin Yiguo is so inconsiderate, bullying the subordinates is useless, how can I sit idly by and let it go."
Li Li heard Xiao Ji's implication, and wailed: "Your Majesty—"
Xiao Ji ignored Li Li and continued to say in a deep voice: "The so-called Linyi Kingdom is just Jiuzhen County and Rinan County in the previous dynasty. Since you are so devoted to the Central Plains, there is no need for Linyi Kingdom to exist anymore."
"I will issue a decree today to announce to the world that apart from the national title of Linyi Kingdom, the Jiuzhen County and Rinan County of the previous dynasty will be restored, and they will be attached to Jiaozhou. The old nobles and officials of Linyi Kingdom will all move to Panyu."
"As for Fan Long, the king of Linyi Kingdom, he is a treasonous person, and his crime should be punished. He doesn't have to be escorted to the capital for trial, he will be beheaded on the spot, and his head will be circulated to other vassal states. Even if someone is so disrespectful to Daning, he will end up in the same way."
Li Li's eyes went dark, and he passed out completely on the spot.
Xiao Ji waved his hand, and soon two guards entered the hall and dragged them out.
Baiguan silently watched Li Li being dragged down, with mixed feelings in his heart.
The emperor's treatment of Lin Yiguo was not insignificant, but no one dared to raise any objections. Who told Lin Yiguo to die first, and he did it for hundreds of years.
It's just that some people can't help but feel hairy, especially those officials who impeached King Xiao Jie of Qi and accepted bribes from Li Li.
"Long live, long live, my emperor."
All civil and military officials bowed down together, and the mountain shouted long live.
"Everyone loves to be flat."
Xiao Ji seemed to have completely dissipated his anger, and motioned for all officials to calm down with a blank expression.
