Chapter 704 Taking such a big turn...

These words are not trivial.

The emperor was furious. As a courtier, his wealth and life depended on his few words, and everyone immediately fell silent, and no one spoke again.

Of course, this does not include Shen Liuzhen. Shen Liuzhen originally had a "miserable" look on his face, and when the emperor spoke, he always matched his face with sadness and distraught.

Xie Yuan was sitting next to him, watching him act deliberately, somewhat uncomfortable.

Fortunately, she has also been good at cold faces for many years, and when she thinks that Shen Liuzhen almost lost her life, she can't care less about Shen Liuzhen's demeanor. She has a dark face all the time, especially cold.

At this time, the emperor seemed to be very angry after finishing his speech, and almost turned his back to the ministers. Shen Liuzhen stood up directly from his seat, and spoke softly to the West Lord, with a little shock, and said aggrievedly:
"Well, my lord in the west... Today, I really almost couldn't see you all. How many people are witnesses. There were a few Xianbei people present at the time, so they knew it in their hearts... If you really don't believe it, you can go to The inspection of the place where the incident happened, the small tree on the edge of the cliff, and the traces of being hanged by me, almost broke. The height is not visible from the shore..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand tremblingly to wipe the non-existent cold sweat on his head, and said:

"Oh...it scared me to death. If it wasn't for my family, A Yuan, who was so powerful in martial arts and gave up his life to save me, I would be a dead body now. I am already so miserable, and everyone still suspects that I am the one who made a cruel trick... Really wronged me..."

Of course, some people pondered, some pondered, some rolled their eyes bitterly, but no one dared to answer this question again...

Make His Majesty angry with too many calls, and demote them to the border with one more sentence?
Although they are all proud of being Xianbei people, and they strongly advocate maintaining the customs and characteristics of Xianbei people, there is one thing Shen Liuzhen is right about—living in the Central Plains is much better than outside the Great Wall, no need to kill or rob, search Those who search and cultivate the land will have a lot of resources to enjoy. Isn't this better than going to the border to fight the creeps?

Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, Emperor Shi Yu Wulei eased his tone again, sat back on his throne, sighed and said:

"Okay, other things, I will go to the Tingwei Mansion to investigate, let's not talk about this, it will spoil everyone's happiness. Zhonglang general Xie Yuan, although he is a Han, but unexpectedly brave and extraordinary, this sword split I am afraid that there are not many Xianbei people who can do the matter of killing a bear's head?! Hahahaha... must be rewarded..."

The emperor turned his body luxuriously, leaned slightly on the chair, lowered his eyes as if he was thinking about what to admire, and everyone below sat up straight, including Xie Yuan, also pricked up their ears , Waiting for the emperor's next words.

I saw Emperor Ulei raised his eyes, looked towards the void, and said in thought:
"There are many brave and good fighters among the Han people. It's a pity not to use it. If Ling Zhonglang general Xie Yuan leads the way and elects a guard team composed entirely of Han people from all over the country, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, there was an "uproar" from the crowd. In such a big banquet, this surprised movement was really not small.

Xie Yuan quickly looked at the reactions of the Xianbei people, and saw that many people had expressions of panic and uneasiness on their faces, talking and whispering to each other.

Several old ministers of the clan opened their mouths one after another, almost objecting in unison:

"Your Majesty! The Han people are not of the same mind with us. How important is the duty of the guards, how can we hand it over with confidence!"

"Your Majesty must not have any illusions about other Han people just because of one Shen Liuzhen. They provoked so many rebellions!"

"The Han people are cunning and treacherous. Don't look at their obedient and obedient behavior now. As long as they take the military power later, they will definitely change their faces!"

"That's right, Your Majesty, if you want to use it, you can use it, and you can send it to the border. How can you arrange Han Chinese to form a guard team in Pingcheng?! Isn't this raising wolves next to your pillow?!"

"This is absolutely not acceptable, even if we are demoted, we will never agree!"

Some of them spoke Xianbei dialect, some spoke Chinese, and they were noisy and excited.Shen Liuzhen, who was watching from the side, smiled politely, and Xie Yuan's face turned darker...

And Emperor Shi Yu Wulei, still keeping his side face looking at the void, glanced at them from the corner of his eyes, and suddenly said:
"I suddenly had an idea..."

He paused, and everyone fell silent.Shi Yu Wulei said slowly:
"In the future, if you go to the court, whoever speaks Xianbei dialect will be fined with a piece of silk. This Chinese is mixed with Xianbei dialect. You don't think there is anything wrong with it. I still have to listen to the hatchback interpreter. The noise makes my ears hurt!"

The people who were so excited just now were all taken aback for a moment, as if they suddenly lost their focus, and their expressions were very complicated...

If in normal times, the emperor objected to them speaking Xianbei dialect, everyone would definitely have another burst of fierce opposition, just like letting all the ministers wear Han official uniforms before going to court. In the end, Emperor Ulay made the final decision...

But today, this matter is nothing, the front clothes are all worn, and the fine for speaking Xianbei language does not seem to be a big deal.

The main thing is to form the Han people's old guard team. It is absolutely impossible to make the trip, and it is waiting for the emperor to take back his order.

Emperor Ulei sat upright under the attention of everyone, with a very luxurious demeanor, he said:

"Since everyone is against it, forget it, but it's a pity to let someone like Xie Yuan go unused..." He said with a perplexed expression:
"Let's do this...you can add Zhonglang general Xie Yuan as the crown prince's tutor, teach the prince martial arts, and reward the prince with three thousand food. Is this the head office?"

Xie Yuan was dumbfounded, wasn't this something he had planned long ago... This direction, the emperor wouldn't be... this plan from the very beginning, right?
She looked at the expressions of everyone in Xianbei. Although their expressions were still ugly, there was indeed no one who objected. There was a sense of compulsion and compromise everywhere.

Shen Liuzhen, who was sitting beside her, knocked her with his elbow, and urged her with moving lips:
"Your Majesty has taken such a big turn to get the result, please give me an order to thank you soon."

Only then did Xie Yuan get up quickly, walked to the venue, lifted his clothes, knelt down gracefully, and saluted:
"My minister Xie Yuan accepts the order, thank you."

Among the Xianbei people, Shi Yu Hengjia, who had always been dark-faced and relatively silent, was pushed by a Xianbei elder who led the table and said:
"Have you seen it? Your Majesty is really partial. Even the crown prince has paved the way for the Han people. If this continues, what good will it do for the Xianbei people? If the crown prince wants to go to school, he must choose a companion. Your son is about the same age, the most likely If you choose, you have to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu Hengjia relaxed his eyes looking at Xie Yuan's back, and responded in his usual relaxed tone:

"Understood, the clan elders don't worry."
