Noble First Daughter-in-law

The next morning, morning morning.

All the courtiers stood on both sides of the main hall within the limit of civil and military. In normal court meetings, they would almost start arguing with this line as the boundary, but today, not only were there no quarrels, there was even no sound at all.

In the hall, it was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop on the ground.

And in this silence, suddenly there was a shock.

It was His Majesty the Emperor sitting on the dragon chair who slapped the table with his palm, then pointed at a person below and said angrily, "Drag this lawless rebel down here, and chop it up!"

As soon as the words fell, Yan Feiwei had already walked in.

And what they wanted to capture was the tallest and most eye-catching Sheng Guogong among the officials—Yu Wenyuan!

He has already been sent to Taiyuan, especially after the battle of Yanmen County, Shanxi and other places have become the key targets of Ashina Shalibao's revenge, and he has sent troops to harass him several times. After the end of the new year, the Shanxi consolation ambassador set off quickly and returned to Taiyuan to lead an army to resist the Turkic invasion of the south.

Unexpectedly, at this time, he returned to Dongdu privately and appeared among the officials of the morning court today.

Everyone was shocked, but at this moment, when they heard that the emperor was going to kill him, all the ministers became panicked, and several of them immediately came out, knelt down to Chu Yang, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Let Sheng Guogong die."

Yu Wenyuan still said calmly: "The old minister returned to the court this time because of the dog."

Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt a chill rise from his heart.

He returned to the Eastern Capital for no reason, the criminal deceived the emperor, so he was punished for his crimes, demoted three ranks in a row, and still stayed in Taiyuan, using his own soldiers and horses to resist the Turkic soldiers, benefiting the court and weakening the emperor This nail in the eye.

In this way, even if it is recognized that Yu Wenye has made great contributions in the expedition to Xingluocang, he has retained his position as the general of the auxiliary country, and even won him praise from the people, but the weakening of the Yuwen family is an established fact, no matter what Nothing can be changed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yu Wenyuan opened his mouth, he put the heaviest punishment on his own head.

Are you still out?
At this time, there should be a result.

Yu Wenyuan immediately said: "The old minister is confused."

After a long while, he squinted his eyes and looked at Yu Wenyuan, and said with a sneer, "You mean, you want to trade his death for his life."

But Yu Wenyuan quickly said: "If the old minister is lucky enough to survive, but the crime has already been committed, he is willing to demote himself to three ranks, and stay in Taiyuan, defend the court against the Turks, and die after doing his best!"

Hearing the words "General Fuguo", the strange faces were even more shocked.

Indeed, as long as Yu Wenyuan stood here, he would be leaving his post without authorization, which would be a death penalty, and there was almost no room for change.

Shang Ruyi glanced at her, and said with a faint smile, "Your Majesty has been waiting for half a month to wait for the Duke to 'crime'."

Tusheer was really distressed. Although she was holding an umbrella in her hand, she still couldn't keep out the wind and snow. She was afraid that Shang Ruyi, who had just recovered from a serious injury, would suffer from the cold, so she said softly: "Miss, let's find someone who can shelter from the wind and snow." If you are like this, the servants are afraid that you will catch a cold."

In fact, since Chu Yang beat Kou Yunliang to his ashes, Yu Wenye had to let him go, but he kept holding on to him, just to force Sheng Guogong.

Hearing this, the atmosphere in the court suddenly changed.

It was Dong Bizheng, Duke of Shenwu County.

Many people have gasped.

At this time, she also figured it out.

When she said this, she swallowed the word "crime" abruptly. After all, as a servant girl, she can't speak arbitrarily about her master's behavior, and then said: "Why, young lady thinks that the second son can still be released?"

Chu Yang lazily said: "There is no need to talk about this kind of nonsense anymore, just explain in a few words why you want to come back to die, and then, let's go on the road."

Chu Yang sneered, and said, "It turns out that it is to assist the general of the country."

Chu Yang sneered again: "If I don't kill you and let you live, how can you save your son's life?"

The civil and military officials also showed surprise on their faces, and when they looked at Chu Yang again, many people's eyes showed a light of sudden realization.

Shang Ruyi didn't say anything more, but turned her head to look at the gate of Dali Temple with a smile. At this time, the wind and snow seemed to be a little lighter, and the dark cloud that had been pressing them for half a month seemed to be a lot thinner, and there was light. If something seemed to come through, even her heart became much clearer.

Those ministers still wanted to say something, but they couldn't say it.

He said: "The old minister wants to prove the dog's innocence by dying."

After speaking, he waved his hand lightly.

"..."

This is no ordinary crime and punishment!
This is a move to completely weaken oneself and show loyalty to the court!
Even Wang Shaoji, who stood by and waited to ridicule him at any time, showed a look of surprise, and there was no need to say anything else.

Chu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.

As soon as these words came out, someone had already exclaimed in a low voice.

It's like killing two birds with one stone.

Chang Wan said: "Why? The servant does not understand."

Hearing their begging, Wang Shaoji, who was standing among the ministers, sneered and said, "Everyone, what you said is simple. Yu Wenyuan was ordered to guard Taiyuan. Now, there is no emperor's edict, and there is no court order." He dared to go back to the Eastern Capital without permission, what is this? This is leaving his post without permission and deceiving the emperor! If the emperor doesn’t kill him to make an example of others, is it possible that all the soldiers guarding the border will follow suit?”

"Although the Duke is back, he didn't commit a crime when he came back this time—"

Chu Yang said: "I have already investigated Yu Wenye's case. If you deserve to die, you will die, if you should be released, you will be released, and if you should be rewarded, you will be rewarded. Why do you need to do anything extra?"

In this way, it would be impossible not to let Yu Wenye go.

"You are really confused!"

Shang Ruyi said: "Should, yes."

So, he "got into the game".

But how shrewd is Sheng Guogong, how could he fail to see through the emperor's mind.

His intelligence had shocked her countless times before, but at this moment, it made her feel once again that his intelligence was far beyond what she could imagine.

"According to what you say, no matter whether he is innocent or not, as long as you are dead, let me let him live. Where is the dignity of the law? What is the justice? Is the court a place where you can exchange your life?"

"Yes."

Shang Ruyi shook her head: "I'm fine."

The two maids showed surprise expressions.

Chang Wan on the other side said worriedly: "Young Madam, are you sure the Second Young Master can come out today?"

The two guards immediately let go of Yu Wenyuan and retreated to the side, and Yu Wenyuan immediately stood in the center of the hall, bowed to Chu Yang and said: "The old minister is guilty of death."

He has been demoted to three ranks, but still stays in Taiyuan, that is to say, from today on, he will no longer lead the imperial court's soldiers and horses, but will continue to resist the Turkic attack. All he can rely on is his own soldiers and horses of Sheng Guogong!

In fact, he has also heard the emperor's tone. The emperor can't really kill Sheng Guogong for such a trivial matter as leaving his post without authorization and returning to the court without permission. , Let the emperor increase his punishment.

And at this moment, a person slowly walked out of the queue and stood in the very center of the hall.

However, no one spoke.

However, without waiting for everyone to think about it, Yu Wenyuan's deep voice has already sounded in the hall, and there is even a deafening feeling.

Chu Yang narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, and then looked at Yu Wenyuan, who had been restrained by two flying guards, but still held his head high and chest out, without the slightest fear. After a long silence, he said, "Okay. Just listen to you." What to say."

Until now, the emperor still called Yu Wenye the General of the Fuguo, that is to say——

"That's right, Your Majesty, Duke Sheng has made outstanding contributions in resisting the Turks and suppressing the Longmen rebellion. You can't just kill him like this."

And the officials in the court also showed strange expressions on their faces.

For a long time, Chu Yang had two faces in her eyes, one was the one she had never seen before, but it had already been formed, the appearance of the cruel, bloodthirsty and licentious king known in the world; the other was that Holding an umbrella in the misty rain, she smiled and looked at her Immortal Immortal.

The emperor crushed the body of the pro-supervisor Kou Yunliang to ashes half a month ago. Although this is not considered a canonical punishment, everyone knows about it, so it is not a secret. The truth of the case of killing the supervisor became more and more confusing; now, Sheng Guogong returned to the court privately because of his son, which made the case even more complicated.

Yu Wenyuan said again: "The old minister is confused."

But she never thought that Chu Yang is still a master at playing tricks.

"Please ask the emperor to ask the reason, and it won't be too late."

He said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Duke Sheng left his post without permission. The criminal deceived the king. He deserves to die. Since both the left and the right are going to die, why don't you listen to what he has to say before he dies, so that he can be considered dead."

But this is the ultimate goal of the emperor!

On the other side, outside the gate of Dali Temple, Shang Ruyi led Tusheer and Chang Wan to stand in the wind and snow. Although the wind was biting, she didn't feel very cold wearing a thick fur coat. This kind of passionate emotion stirred in her chest, making her not afraid of the wind and snow in front of her at all, and only stared eagerly at the gate of Dali Temple.

Chu Yang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, sat up straight first, but after thinking about it, he immediately leaned back, put one hand on the table, and tapped the table with his fingertips a few times, as if he was measuring wearing something.

This person is loved too much by God.

too much...

Just as she was feeling emotional in her heart, the gate of Dali Temple suddenly let out a long neigh, and then the gate was opened.

Shang Ruyi hurriedly raised her head.

At this time, the cloud above the head seemed to be dispelled, and a ray of sunlight shone down on a tall and strong figure who came out of the door. Although his face was pale and haggard, he was tall and vigorous, like a jade tree facing the wind, facing towards As she walked, those bright eyes slowly revealed a joyful, gentle light...
