Chapter 409

Yang Tinghe stood there with a calm expression, and heard the discussions of a group of officials, but the whole person did not respond at all, making it impossible to see what Yang Tinghe was thinking in his heart.

But at this moment, most of the officials targeting Li Huan gathered around Wang Jia.After all, among the elders in the court, Wang Yangming was regarded by the officials as a member of Li Huan's party, while Liu Yu was regarded as a remnant of the former eunuch party, while Yang Tinghe seemed to be quite low-key in the court.

In this case, Wang Jia was suddenly highlighted. After all, above the court, Wang Jia took a clear stand against Li Huan, which naturally attracted many officials who were dissatisfied with Li Huan.

Just looking at the officials gathered around Wang Jia at this moment, you can know Wang Jia's influence on the court.

Not far away are some nobles gathered. The relationship between these nobles and the civil official group can only be said to be average. Even if some nobles have tried to get close to the civil official group over the years, there are very few who can really be accepted by the civil official group.

After all, Xungui's background has already destined them to be on the opposite side of the civil official group. Even after years of suppression, the Xungui group is no longer standing side by side with the civil official group at the beginning of the founding of the country, and can even suppress the glory of the civil official group. .

However, it is not so easy for Xungui to get close to the civil official group.

At this moment, many of the top dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty, including the British Duke Zhang Lun and Cheng Guogong Zhu Fu, gathered together, and many of them had worried expressions on their faces.

The Xungui Group and the royal family can be regarded as both prosperous and harmless, although it is said that the Xungui Group has lost its right to speak in the court over the years.

However, the huge network of contacts that the Xungui Group has woven over the past century is extremely huge. Even if it is something that happened in the imperial city, the civil official group may not know it, and the Xungui Group has already done it immediately. Got it.

This time Dongfang Bubai broke into the imperial city, and naturally the news of the disturbance in the imperial city cannot be concealed from all the top nobles.

Chen Rucai, the Marquis of Taining, had not been granted the title for long. Among the top nobles, he could be regarded as the younger generation, and he was also the least determined.

At this moment, Chen Ru looked away from the excited civil servants not far away, looked at Zhang Lun, Zhu Fu and the others with a bit of worry, and said, "Duke Ying, Duke Cheng, I'm afraid this time things are not good. It's done."

Zhang Lun looked up at Chen Ru, smiled slightly and said, "Why did the Marquis of Taining say such a thing?"

Seeing Zhang Lun's appearance, Marquis Taining couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart, isn't it obvious that Li Huan's dereliction of duty caused the thieves to riot in the imperial city, if this crime is confirmed, who knows how those officials will target Li Huan.

It was not easy for their Xungui Group to have hope of revival. All the nobles present were not fools. The reason why their Xungui Group was able to exist today was entirely because of Li Huan.

That is to say, Li Huan is the representative of their Xungui Group in the imperial court. If something happens to Li Huan, then they will not get better by then.

If Li Huan was suppressed by the civil official group, they had managed to seize the little bit of power in their hands now, and they might also be taken back by the civil official group.

If it is said that they have not owned it, then that’s all right. The key point is that now they have managed to grasp some power, and it is no longer like a decoration above the court. Let them let go of the power in their hands. As long as they are not fools, who can Willingly.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Ru, the Marquis of Taining, is naturally the most worried.

You must know that their Taininghou lineage now has a new uncle like Chen Ang, who can be said to be a double noble. Seeing that their Chen family has hope of revival, Chen Ru cares about Li more than anyone Huan's future.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Ru glanced at Zhang Lun, Zhu Fu and the others and said, "Masters, we must have an idea. If the civil official group targets the champion, how can we help each other?" Champion Hou."

As soon as Chen Ru said this, some other nobles also nodded one after another, and looked at Zhang Lun and Zhu Fu with some expectations.

These people have all benefited greatly because of Li Huan, and they can be regarded as having an interest relationship with Li Huan, and they are also the people who least want to see any accidents with Li Huan.

Zhang Lun and Zhu Fu are not only the core of the nobles, but also have an in-law relationship with Li Huan, so all the nobles are waiting for Zhang Lun and Zhu Fu to make up their minds.

Of course, there are also a few nobles who have distanced themselves from them at this moment, obviously not wanting to get involved in this matter.

But this is not surprising. It is not unusual for some of the nobles to fall to the civil service group. If there is no such thing, it is a strange thing.

Zhang Lun, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo looked at each other, and Zhang Lun nodded slightly at Zhu Fu
Zhu Fu took a deep breath, glanced at the crowd and said: "Don't worry, everyone, we have made a decision on this matter, and we will wait for the court meeting, and everyone will follow orders."

Hearing what Zhu Fu said, Chen Ru and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.As long as they are united, if Li Huan is in a difficult situation later, they may not be able to help Li Huan.

At this time, only a sharp voice came from a distance: "Your Majesty has arrived, all officials welcome you."

What followed was the sound of the loud whip, and the Emperor Luan came slowly.

As the emperor got off the Luanjia, climbed up the imperial steps, and slowly sat on the throne, all the officials bowed down to the emperor and shouted long live.

Looking at the civil and military ministers bowing down below, Zhu Houzhao swept his eyes and saw Li Huan's figure among them. He couldn't help but smile a little and then said in a deep voice: "Your servants are free from courtesy."

As the officials got up, Gao Feng took a step forward and said, "Play if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

Before Gao Feng could finish speaking, he saw an official of Yushi Dao step forward, with a little excitement, he said in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, I have this report."

Glancing at the censor lightly, Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "Speak!"

As a censor, Liu Sen participated in the impeachment of Li Huan more than once, but every time he couldn't help Li Huan, and even his colleagues were ruined by Li Huan one by one.

It would be a lie to say that Liu Sen had no fear of Li Huan. After all, if Li Huan did not act, the evidence of his crime would be conclusive. Leave a trace of affection.

In the eyes of many officials, Li Huan is arrogant and domineering, breaking their official rules and breaking an unspoken rule that everyone defaults to.

Looking at Li Huan who was standing there, who was a little younger than his son, Liu Sen felt both awe and strange hatred in his heart.

According to what they said in private, people like Li Huan who do not follow the official rules are their biggest enemies. According to Li Huan's ruthless methods, no one can guarantee whether they will step down one day. Follow in the footsteps of those colleagues whose families were ransacked by Li Huan.

In the past, even if there was no evidence against Li Huan, they would impeach Li Huan on a whim. Fortunately, they are censors, and it is their duty to impeach court officials. Even if there is no evidence, there is nothing against Li Huan. It's okay to feel sick to Li Huan.

But this time it was different. Li Huan committed the crime of dereliction of duty, which was a real crime. Even if Li Huan had tens of millions of mouths, he could never justify it.

At this moment, Liu Sen was very excited and solemnly said to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty, I have impeached the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Li Huan, to collude with the rebels in the rivers and lakes, intending to murder His Majesty..."

Many officials opened their eyes wide when they heard the words, and looked at Liu Sen in astonishment.

When Liu Sen stood up, they knew that Liu Sen definitely wanted to impeach Li Huan, but they didn't expect that Liu Sen would give Li Huan such a big hat when he came up.

It is reasonable to say that Li Huan is negligent in his duties, but if he says that Li Huan colluded with rebels and intends to harm the emperor, even they themselves do not believe it.

Who doesn't know that in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, when it comes to loyalty to the emperor, no one can compare with Li Huan.

When the emperor was assassinated and his life was dying, it was Li Huan who stepped forward and risked the crime of ransacking his family and exterminating his family, and insisted on entering the imperial city to save the emperor from danger.

After that, no one knew that Li Huan was the number one confidant of the emperor. It could be said that Li Huan was arrogant and domineering, or that he killed people like hemp, but if it was said that Li Huan intended to harm the emperor, even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting there, couldn't help coughing lightly, looked at Liu Sen who was speaking righteously with a bit of surprise, and couldn't help but asked, "Does Liu Yushi have any evidence?"

Even if he had known for a long time that there would be officials making a fuss about what happened last night at today's court meeting, but Zhu Houzhao was deeply speechless for the charges Liu Sen charged Li Huan.

Several of Liu Sen's companions also looked stunned, obviously they didn't expect Liu Sen to stage such a show, which was different from what they had discussed before.

All of a sudden, Liu Sen attracted the attention of all the officials, and suddenly became the most dazzling presence in the Great Court Assembly.

Liu Sen, who was so hot-headed, felt the strange eyes of everyone looking at him at this moment, and couldn't help shivering, and he suddenly woke up from the state of enthusiasm.

Liu Sen, who was a little annoyed in his heart, knew that what he said was a bit exaggerated, but under the strange eyes of the emperor, Liu Sen could only hold his head up and say: "The rebels entered the imperial city, killing people and setting fire all the way. Evidence."

Taking a deep look at Liu Sen, Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on a group of civil and military officials and said, "What do you think?"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, Wang Jia has a smile on his face at the moment, stroking his beard with one hand, stepped forward, bowed to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, the words of Liu Yushi Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is a fact that Champion Hou is negligent in his duties. It is a matter of His Majesty's safety and the innocence of Champion Hou. I implore His Majesty to order the third division to investigate this matter. If it is true that Champion Hou is only guilty of dereliction of duty, it is better to return Champion Hou. clean."

Speaking of which, Wang Jia looked at Li Huan, with a gentle smile on his face and said: "As the saying goes, no one is wrong, after all, the champion is a little younger, and it is normal to have some omissions when doing things! As long as it is not colluding with rebels, the intention For murdering His Majesty, everyone should not be too harsh on the champion."

Wang Jia's words sounded like an explanation for Li Huan, but anyone who wasn't a fool could tell that Wang Jia was targeting Li Huan.

The third division investigated and prosecuted Li Huan, saying that he wanted to return Li Huan's innocence, but the ghost knows what the third division will do in it, let alone return Li Huan's innocence. Weird thing.

Which of the officials present was not a person like a human being, and now they immediately understood Wang Jia's intentions after hearing Wang Jia's words.

This is to use the banner of returning Li Huan's innocence, and hold the right to investigate Li Huan in his hands. What will happen to Li Huan then, isn't that up to them?

Many officials' eyes lit up, looking at Wang Jia who was looking at Li Huan with a gentle smile with admiration on his face, and secretly sighed in his heart, he really deserves to be the old man of the three dynasties.

"What Wang Ge said is true. When the imperial court establishes a three-division yamen to try the case in person and return the champion to be innocent, the minister Zheng Yan kowtows to His Majesty, and begs His Majesty's permission!"

"My minister Dali Temple Minister Li Qing seconded the proposal!"

"Member of the Ministry of Punishments Uiro and others seconded the proposal"

Suddenly, dozens of officials stood up one by one, bowing down to the emperor.

Looking at the posture, it is a posture that goes against the will of the emperor if he refuses to agree.

The Son of Heaven is not stupid, he has already seen the key point, so there is a bit of worry in his face.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Put your mother's shit on! What do you guys think, you really think we are all fools, the champion is loyal to His Majesty, the world can learn from you, the sun and the moon can show you, how can you question it .”

Suddenly, a general jumped out. It was Su Kang, a veteran general who was named General Weiyuan because of his meritorious service.

Naturally, his background as a military commander made him a bit more violent. In addition, Su Kang had always served in the army and had never been in the court at all. It can be said that he did not have the habits of people in the officialdom.

For Li Huan, Su Kang admired him. When Liu Sen accused Li Huan of colluding with a traitor and murdering the emperor, Su Kang almost couldn't help jumping out, that is, his colleagues around him gave him a hand. Otherwise, he would have pointed at Liu Sen and yelled.

Seeing that a group of officials still want Li Huan to be interrogated by the third division, he can understand what these people's plans are. He couldn't help but jumped out and scolded Liu Sen and the others unceremoniously.

"You don't distinguish between loyal and traitorous, and you frame Zhongliang, what face do you have to stand on the court, and how can you be worthy of His Majesty's trust in you? Su is ashamed to stand on the court with you."
