I, Scorpio Lone Star, like to make friends

Chapter 278 Don't Let Heroes Bleed and Cry

early morning.

The sun rises.

Everything began to recover, and the world was gradually starting to make noise.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, civil and military officials were already holding wat boards, waiting for the arrival of the saint.

King Chen was wearing a boa robe, sitting on the Grand Master's chair with a big horse and a golden saber, one hand was wrapped with a Buddhist bead, and he was constantly twisting the Buddhist bead at this moment, the sound of the bead colliding with each other, even if it was very weak, was enough for martial arts success For everyone, it is extremely clear.

Many people raised their eyes to see Wang Chen, whose eyelids were drooping, eyes closed, and constantly twirling the Buddhist beads, and many people showed strange expressions.

Xu Changqing sat on the grand teacher's chair with a solemn expression. He looked around, watching the expressions of civil and military officials, and finally looked at Yang Kaitai who was beside him.

Yang Kaitai was sitting beside Xu Changqing, who was the second assistant, second only to himself in the cabinet.

Especially after General Hussars was dismissed, there was no longer any restraint in the Protectorate of the Five Armies, and now it is the only one.

Yang Kaitai was leaning on the armrest of the grand teacher's chair with his elbows at this time, his fingers were gently moving his temples, his eyes were sleepy, he yawned occasionally, and he didn't seem to wake up.

For today's imperial strife that is about to break out, he doesn't care about it at all, but Xu Changqing dare not underestimate him. When Xiao Tianyou, a hussar general, was alive, he had the support of four kings and eight princes. He was very powerful in the five armies. But the position of the great general remained unchanged, firmly overtaking the general of the hussars.

He looked at King Chen who had his eyes closed. This person was ranked third in the cabinet. When he and the general stepped down, this person would become the second assistant, who was also a high-ranking and powerful person.

But in recent years, King Chen began to eat fast and recite the Buddha's name, he no longer cared about everything, except for necessary important matters, he seldom spoke, and he was indifferent to the world.

In the past, he was able to judge the other party's thoughts, but now no one can guess what Chen Wang is thinking.

In the end, he turned his gaze to the Minister of Rites who looked as usual, and Xu Changqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what a troubled time.

A commotion and shouting woke up Xu Changqing.

Can't help but look up, the sage wearing a crown and a crown has arrived, sitting on the dragon chair, civil and military officials are kneeling and worshiping, and the cabinet ministers also stood up and bowed three times.

But Xu Changqing noticed that Chen Wang kept his eyes closed and twirled the Buddha beads constantly. This gesture can be said to stand out from the crowd. Although the officials were all the same, there was definitely an uproar in their hearts.

Chen Wang did not worship the saints, but he was not rude in terms of etiquette. This is the prerogative of the cabinet ministers.

Even if the Great Zhou removed the position of prime minister and replaced it with a cabinet that dominates, the position of prime minister has been passed down for thousands of years. It is easy to remove the position of prime minister, but the influence is not so easy to eliminate.

Cabinet ministers are also called ministers, and they are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people when they join the cabinet.

All the cabinet ministers have seats above the court hall to show their dignity, and they are also qualified to see the saints and not to worship, which means that the two sides are equal in status. The status is respected and has a transcendent status.

But having the ability doesn’t mean doing it.

It has always been the first assistant in the early dynasty, so you can see the saint and not worship, which shows the status of the first assistant, so that you can use it to manage the cabinet.

Chen Wang's gesture was unexpected.

At this time, there was silence above the court hall. Today, court disputes were about to break out, and everyone was very careful, for fear of getting involved, and if they failed, they would ransack their homes and destroy their families. Now, it was never expected that King Chen would take the lead in opening the first court. one shot.

For a while, there was only the sound of breathing in the hall, and the sound of King Chen twirling the beads.

The saint sat on the dragon chair, looking along the gap between the crown and the crown, looking at King Chen who had his eyes closed. The actions of this man just now deeply stimulated the saint.

Originally, because of the Qianyuan Burning Blood Pill, Tianji reported that the sage was immoral, and the clan mansion had lost control. At this time, the sage was extremely sensitive, and the actions of King Chen were already considered by the sage to be forcing the palace.

Silence is better than sound, this is telling myself that this saint is useless, and I don't even bother to pretend.

A pair of eyes were bloodshot, and the eyes behind the crown showed hatred.

Taizong and Gaozong.

And that national teacher.

All of them should die, ten thousand times.

I was cheated, Qianyuan Burning Blood Pill was their idea, but I supported them, and now I have to bear all the consequences, but they are like people who have nothing to do.

The blood in the saint's heart was dripping, and he hated himself for being deceived by lard, so that he fell into such a shallow scheme. Taizong and Gaozong's goal was to kill two birds with one stone from beginning to end. Evidence of his own immorality.

They can use this to blackmail themselves, start to control the court, and even bring themselves down, just like the current situation, to control the next superior saint.

I have ruled the world for decades, and it has already been deeply rooted. It is not comparable to the abdicated emperors like them. Their influence on the court is not much anymore.

But if the next sage does not show his dignity and has a shallow foundation, he is suitable to be controlled by them.

Being the Supreme Emperor dishonestly, they are still tossing around like this. The Great Zhou Dynasty, because they are so noisy, there will be Jiazi Rebellion. In the end, the national fortune is only more than 300 years, which is almost half less.

That is the national fortune of about 200 years.

The saint was indignant in his heart, and completely forgot that he could also make troubles, and he also had his own credit for this situation.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat if there is nothing."

This sentence woke up the ministers.

An official in a purple robe came out with a wat board in his hand, stood in the central area, first bowed down to the saint and then preached: "Lv Fang, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, can attend the six gates of the Vermilion Bird Hall, and Dou Changsheng, the deputy head of the Suzaku Hall."

"Privately shot the foreign messenger, seriously injured the foreign messenger, and privately imprisoned the foreign messenger."

After the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, one of the courtiers came out one by one and began to impeach Dou Changsheng. Dou Changsheng seemed to have stabbed a hornet's nest. At first, he was an official of the Ministry of Rites, but soon after, officials from other departments also impeached Dou Changsheng.

At a glance, there are quite a few important ministers in purple robes, and there are more ministers of Fei Pao.

At this time, Dou Changsheng can be said to be beaten by everyone, accused by everyone, cast aside by everyone, and has become a heinous person.

Nine major crimes and 36 minor crimes were listed, including not only Shang Clan messengers, but also other crimes. In one sentence, old and new, all of them have been found out now, and they must be liquidated together at this time.

But the other crimes are just a foil, not enough to shake an important minister. What is really important is to attack the envoys of the Shang clan and arouse hostility from allies.

Xu Changqing looked at the officials below, and now half of the officials have come out to impeach Dou Changsheng, either citing Dou Changsheng's crimes or seconding the proposal.

Seeing this scene, Xu Changqing was extremely shocked. Unexpectedly, the princelings had grown to such an extent in a short period of time.

Don't look at the half that hasn't moved, half is not much at all.

In fact, in the remaining half, there are various small groups who can't be united at all. If they can reach a quarter, they are already powerful enough to make the saint sleepless, unable to eat and sleep well, and now there are half of the courtiers. They have all turned to the prince.

It's not easy to be the chief assistant. As long as the prince is not a saint for a day, the princelings will not fall apart, then they will be the biggest force in the court, and even he himself, the chief assistant, will be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, once the emperor and the courtiers, after the new sage, he will not be able to hold the position of chief assistant for a few years.

Xu Changqing seemed to be rooted under his feet, and he was sitting steadily at this moment, very unwilling. Although he had the heart to turn the tide, the cruel reality did not allow it.

In this kind of struggle, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites will take action in person, and then establish the victory in one fell swoop.

The attitude of so many courtiers, even a sage cannot disobey.

Xu Changqing watched as the Minister of the Ministry of Rites slowly got up, but a figure blocked Xu Changqing's gaze. At this moment, the general Yang Kaitai, who was gently moving his temples, stood up abruptly, staring at the officials with sharp tiger eyes, and sneered He preached:

"The envoys of the Shang Clan are suspected of killing the envoys of the Spirit Clan. This is a serious crime. The impact is so bad that you choose to ignore it. Those who know think you are human, and those who don't know think you are all Shang Clan."

"Do not."

"A dog raised by the Shang family."

The officials were in an uproar, many of them blushed, and they had completely broken their defenses. They pointed at Yang Kaitai, and Lu Fang, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, spoke again: "I impeach the general for insulting the officials."

Before finishing a sentence, Yang Kaitai interrupted Lu Fang with a sneer, and said indifferently: "Your Ministry of Rites has the least right to play."

"Your Ministry of Rites is in charge of diplomatic relations and managing foreign missions. The death of the Spirit Tribe mission was originally your Ministry of Rites' negligence. Now that the Shang clan envoys are suspected of murdering the Spirit Tribe mission, you are no longer negligent."

"You are not trash, but you have ulterior motives. This time, Dou Changsheng is so urgently impeached. Could it be that Dou Changsheng touched your pain, so you want to remove Dou Changsheng to cover up the truth?"

"The general speaks carefully."

The Minister of Rites couldn't bear it anymore, so he preached in a deep voice.

The Minister of Rites had just opened his mouth, and the Minister of the Ministry of Hu said calmly beside him: "Although the general's words are a bit vulgar, there is reason."

"The case of the Spirit Tribe mission is of great importance. It involves the Shang clan. They have suspicions, so naturally they have to investigate. Now that the facts are unclear, they are calling Dou Changsheng to be beaten and killed. Isn't this unfair to the devotion to duty?"

"Besides, Dou Changsheng is a hero of the human race and a candidate for the sword of benevolence, Zhanlu sword. How could he do such things as frame up? There must be a reason for taking action against the envoys of the Shang clan."

"We can't let heroes bleed and cry."

At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites suddenly turned around, looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Households, and said in a low voice: "Lu Tianen."

"you."

The Minister of Rites lost his composure.

It was a shocking event that the two cabinet ministers who remained neutral were the first to express their attitudes.

The situation is out of control.

Can't help but look at Chen Wang, this attitude is very important.
