I, Scorpio Lone Star, like to make friends

Chapter 279 Dou Changsheng Is Too Scary

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The atmosphere gradually became oppressive and weird.

A series of gazes, all gathered towards Chen Wang.

He stared with piercing eyes, filled with various thoughts.

No one expected that a court struggle would be so weird. The princelings who were determined to win and thought they would win undoubtedly began to murmur in their hearts.

The prince's expression was normal at this time, and he couldn't see any emotion, but the fingers covered under the sleeves had been closed, and the fists were tightly clenched, and the nails had pierced into the flesh.

The prince has lost his composure, and the situation is about to get out of control.

There are nine ministers in the cabinet, and now the Hussar General has been dismissed, so far no one has filled the vacancy, and Tiangong Shengong Yeshi, and Danta Dansheng have never participated in court disputes.

These three cabinet ministers can be completely ignored. Among the remaining six cabinet ministers, the Chief Assistant Xu Changqing will not express his position easily, and is the most unpredictable.

Among the remaining five cabinet ministers, two already supported Dou Changsheng.

What's more, the attitude is clear. This is something that the prince was caught off guard. As the cabinet ministers, they are already the ministers of the court. Their status and authority have reached the extreme.

For them, even if they obtained the merit of being a dragon, there would be great benefits. For example, it is impossible for the general Yang Kaitai to be the first assistant, and the second assistant is already the ultimate.

Therefore, the generals of the past dynasties would not be involved in the battle, and so did other cabinet ministers. They gained little but paid a lot. If they stood in the wrong line, it would not only be as simple as dismissal, but the liquidation afterwards would be very serious.

Therefore, the clear attitudes of General Yang Kaitai and Household Minister Lu Tianen can be called weird.

Among the remaining three cabinet ministers, not to mention the Minister of Rites, it is only the head of the six sects, King Chen and Da Zongzheng of the Zongrenfu.

Among them, Chen Wang's attitude is very important. Chen Wang, who closed his eyes, slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were half closed, and his eyes were squinted, as if gathering light, looking at the officials who fought to impeach Dou Changsheng. At least a member of the Six Doors.

Among them, Chen Renmei, Dou Changsheng's immediate superior and the master of the Suzaku Hall, was among them.

King Chen continued to twirl the Buddhist beads, and said calmly: "What Situ said is right, we can't let heroes bleed and cry."

"It is too early to start to pursue responsibility before the case is clear."

After Chen Wang paused, he continued to speak: "Why don't we wait until the case is clear and the case of the Spirit Race mission is solved."

"If the envoy of the Shang clan is innocent at that time, then it is natural to pursue the responsibility and give the Shang clan an explanation, but if the Shang clan did it, then the facts must be announced to all the clans."

"Dare to kill the spirit mission and blame our human race, this Shang clan must be severely punished."

King Chen did not agree with each other, and directly chose to support it. Three cabinet ministers had already made it clear that they were united as one, and many officials who were shouting at Dou Changsheng to kill him had already wavered. disturbed.

Most of them are household officials and six doors.

The prince's face paled by three points, and the situation has become clear. Unless the chief assistant Xu Changqing publicly supports him, the situation cannot be reversed.

But such a thing is impossible. The most important thing for the first assistant to reconcile Yin and Yang is to deal with the relationship between the cabinet ministers. How could he end in person? This is a major blow to the first assistant's majesty.

This time, the first assistant will not express his position, and the other party will not participate in the battle for the heir apparent.

On the complete opposite side of the crown prince was King Jin. King Jin looked relaxed, and joy appeared in his heart. As expected of Dou Changsheng, this move hit the crown prince's vital point.

No matter how much you pay to win Dou Changsheng into action, it seems worth it now.

The prince, who was already in a difficult situation and was about to defeat himself, did not perform well in this court struggle. There were three princelings who opposed him successively. These princeling members should think carefully afterwards.

The ministers of the cabinet, they not only represent status, but also represent strength.

Which one is not powerful and successful in martial arts? General Yang Kaitai and Chen Wang Wang Changgong are both strong in the first rank of martial arts. The third rank of the first rank of martial arts has reached the last level, and they are based on the peak of the first rank of martial arts.

Lu Tianen, Minister of the Household Department, is also a first-rank martial artist. The three supreme masters expressed their opinions, which had a great impact. Even if they did not support him, their attitude towards the prince this time would also affect a group of officials, and they began to move toward neutrality again.

If the princelings are weak, it means they are strong.

King Jin noticed the eyes of the prince's elder brother, he stared at Da Zongzheng with piercing eyes, and also looked at Da Zongzheng.

The six cabinet ministers who can really express their attitudes, remove the three generals who expressed their opinions, the minister of the household department, and the head of the six sects, and then remove the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and there are only Dazong Zhenghe and the chief assistant.

Da Zong looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. He sat silently on the grand master's chair, but he didn't say a word, as if he didn't notice the prince's gaze. This scene made King Jin feel at ease.

Knowing that it was Taizong and Gaozong who made the move, otherwise, Da Zongzheng would definitely support the prince brother.

The scene in front of me is the result of a multi-party alliance. General Yang Kaitai and Minister of the Household Department Lu Tianen are not in the same way. These two have money and soldiers. If they walk together, others may not be able to sleep well. .

What really made them join forces was the impetus behind it.

Winning the Minister of Rites is not only the king of Jin's wish, but also the wish of Taizong, Gaozong, and even saints.

The Ministry of Rites has always supported Zhengshuo, they are strong because of etiquette.

When the sage loses his virtue, the Ministry of Rites must support the prince. When the new sage ascends the throne, the Ministry of Rites will be the biggest and unshakable pillar of the new sage.

This is the foundation on which they stand in the world, and it must not be violated.

This is a taboo. Taizong and Gaozong wanted to control Xinsheng. Of course, they hoped that Xinsheng would have a solid foundation and have the powerful power of the Ministry of Rites.

This is an obstacle to controlling Xinsheng, and for Jin Wang, the current Ministry of Rites is the most important supporter of the prince's elder brother. If he does not push away the obstacles of the Ministry of Rites, he will not be able to take the position at all.

For this reason, even if it damages the foundation of the future, it is not hesitating.

King Jin will not look forward and backward, King Jin is very clear that if he fails to take the position, the Ministry of Rites has nothing to do with him.

There were only four courtiers expressing their views, but three supported Dou Changsheng, which had a great impact. The remaining half of the courtiers also spoke up one after another. Only a small part did not move, but most of them supported Dou Changsheng.

This suddenly reversed the situation in the court. Even if they were a minority, the three ministers' statement had already broken their arrogance, and their anger was relieved. On the other hand, the aura of the few courtiers was like a rainbow, and the situation was clear.

Looking at the chaotic court hall, Xu Changqing had already begun to redefine the situation in the court hall. Looking at the constantly noisy court hall, he couldn't help raising his hand slightly. After seeing this movement, the quarrel gradually disappeared.

Seeing all the gazes coming together, Xu Changqing slowly got up and said to the saint sitting on the dragon chair: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The saint was expressionless, but he didn't bother to pretend. Now that he was broken, he said directly: "The matter is of great importance. Let's wait until the case is clear."

"Foreign messengers have accidents one after another, and the Ministry of Rites is also responsible. This charge of negligence cannot be escaped."

The sage went off in person, fixed his eyes on Du Beiyuan, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and scolded, "The Ministry of Rites really disappointed me."

"You are the Minister of Rites."

"His Majesty."

Xu Changqing interrupted the saint, and said in a deep voice: "How can Your Majesty belittle the old minister before the situation is clear?"

The sage snorted coldly, turned his eyes away, and the crowns kept colliding with each other, making a crisp sound.

When Xu Changqing saw the ugly-faced Minister of Rites, he knew that the other party was really difficult. This sage no longer wanted to lose face, regardless of compromising his own prestige, he would also suffer from the Minister of Rites.

But the sage has already lost his morality, so there is no prestige and reputation, and the behavior of breaking the jar is actually disgusting and disgusting.

In particular, this damages the majesty of the Ministry of Rites. The person who suffers the most damage is Da Zhou. This is no longer a mutual loss, but a self-defeating.

This Ji family is really unpleasant.

In this big week, the Ji family is purely used as a tool, without any affection at all.

The sage was silent for a while, and then he spoke again: "It's about the spirit clan and the Shang clan, as well as the face of our human race, we must investigate clearly."

"Before the case is investigated, I don't want what happened today to happen."

Lu Fang, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, walked out again and said, "Your Majesty."

"I have no doubts about the case investigation, but this case is very important. Now the Shang clan envoys have written letters one after another. It involves gods and demons, and an explanation must be given."

"If the case is delayed for a long time, and the Shang clan and the Ling clan start to quarrel together, it will affect the relationship between the Wan clan and our human clan."

"So Chen Hou's investigation of the case must have a result within two days, and give Da Zhou, the Shang clan, and the Wan clan an explanation."

"Two days?"

"You think it's a play, if you want to know the result, you know the result."

An official with a beard immediately slammed Lu Fang, and then changed his words: "I think it takes five days to investigate the case."

"It doesn't need five days, three days is enough. Chen Renmei, the head of the Vermilion Bird Hall of the Six Gates, please take charge of this case and personally investigate the real culprit behind the scenes."

Chen Wang laughed. These guys reacted really fast. Seeing that they can't stop the investigation, they will fight for the initiative in the investigation. When the time comes, they will not be allowed to open their mouths.

Chen Wang got up straight away, and said loudly, "Well said."

"The minister will personally take charge of the case, and must investigate clearly the whole story."

"There is no need for three or five days, half a month is enough."

The saint kept flapping the armrest of the dragon chair, praised and preached repeatedly: "King Chen is brave enough to do things, I am very relieved."

"Find out the case within a month. The time is too tight. It's really hard for Chen Wang."

"If not, three months is also possible."

The prince finally lost his composure.

He looked at the saint with fiery eyes.

Cursing in my heart, the old thief is shameless.

I really don't want any face, this kind of person is really a saint in vain.

Xu Changqing couldn't stand it anymore, how could it be possible for three months?Wanzu couldn't wait, and Da Zhou couldn't wait, so he said to King Chen, "One month."

"If the investigation fails."

King Chen nodded and said, "Naturally, Dou Changsheng framed the merchant clan and deliberately provoked disputes between the two clans."

"It's also because I didn't do my job well, so I voluntarily resigned as the head of the Six Doors, retired and returned home, and closed my doors to contemplate my mistakes."

Chen Wang looked at Yang Kaitai and Lu Tianen, and felt that the two were much more relaxed. Knowing this sentence, he won their friendship, and he had to bear the consequences, so the influence with them would not be too great.

Wang Chen rejoiced in his heart, the matter was half done, and the two of them would no longer be a hindrance.

As for this official position, he was about to give it up, if it wasn't for the Wuxiang King's lack of strategy and wisdom, he would have given up his official position long ago.

But today is a good time.

This great gift to the late emperor will be even more solemn.
