I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 286 Zhongfu's Huo Party Bites People, My Emperor's Party Beats Dogs (Subscribe)

These two questions raised by Cai Yi are naturally "unpredictable".

It was not to get an answer, but to get Ren Gong involved in endless verbal disputes.

And Ren Gong was indeed left speechless by the question, the trembling right hand was raised and lowered, lowered and raised again, and he didn't say a coherent and complete sentence.

There is no need to question Ren Gong's political experience, but he may not be better than Cai Yi in verbal debates - Confucian scholars often debate scriptures on weekdays, and many of them are very eloquent.

However, Ren Gong didn't speak, it doesn't mean he just surrendered, because he knew that even if he lost face at this moment, he couldn't talk nonsense.

Offenses due to words often happen in the court. If you are a little careless, you will be kicked out of the court by the emperor just because of a word, just like Xia Housheng, Yang Chang and others.

I am the prime minister appointed by the general, and I have absolute authority above the court.

But he didn't dare to be careless, who knows if this is Cai Yi's trick to provoke him on purpose?
Maybe it's just trying to force yourself to say the wrong thing, trap yourself in a place of infidelity, and then replace it.

This old Confucian's thinking was too naive. Without the approval of the general, no one could take the position of the prime minister.

Cai Yi, this old fellow, was simply in a daze.

Thinking of this joint, Ren Gong calmed down a little bit.

He flicked his sleeves and left the core position in the hall, temporarily avoiding Cai Yi's limelight.

"Your Majesty, the old minister's discussion today is not to fight for power and gain for himself, but to hope that His Majesty can speak out."

"All chapters are monopolized by the Shangshu Office. This is not abnormal, and His Majesty will eventually be in charge one day."

"Allowing the subjects of the world to write directly to His Majesty will not only open up their views, but also allow His Majesty to learn more about the great Han world, paving the way for His Majesty to govern personally in the future!"

Cai Yi's words are righteous and strict, which is not entirely a lie, it shows that he has thoroughly thought through the ins and outs of the matter in the past few days.

It doesn't matter whether you should be the royal doctor or not. As long as the emperor is in charge, the Cai family can gain greater benefits.

For the greater good, anything can be sacrificed!

Cai Yi talked eloquently, and Ren Gong was temporarily pushed aside.

The old man suddenly became the center of attention of the courtiers.

I'm afraid he has never received such attention in his life.

Huo Guang naturally didn't know about Cai Yi's "deal" with the emperor, he looked at Cai Yi's complacent expression, and felt a little disgusted in his heart.

It is crazy that Cai Yi made such a riot in the court because he did not become the prime minister.

In order to seize his own power, he disregarded the court's face and the emperor's face, which is really insane.

On that day, it was extremely wise not to make him a prime minister, and he should have even returned to his hometown early and got out of Chang'an City.

Thinking in his heart, Huo Guang's face became more and more ugly, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

Huo Guang looked at Ren Gong again, and after meeting his gaze, he gently pulled out a little bit of the sword in his hand with his backhand, and then instantly hid the sharp edge that was exposed.

Ren Gong, who also hated Cai Yi, immediately understood the meaning of the general.

Can't let Cai Yi mess around anymore.

I have to kill him!

Regardless of whether there is someone behind Cai Yi, they must kill him now.

Ren Gong took another step forward, and suddenly shouted: "Cai Yi is a traitor, he deserves death!"

Ren Gongzhong's angry voice echoed in the hall, finally interrupting the foaming Cai Yi.

Cai Yi was still full of complacency when he was talking, but was suddenly interrupted, his mouth opened and closed, closed and opened again, he was a little stunned, he didn't know what to do.

Ren Gong took a step forward, bowed to the emperor above the jade steps, and immediately spoke with a gun and a stick.

"As soon as the Han armies of the Five Routes went out to fight, the whole country was tied here."

"Cai Yi, as an important minister of the imperial court, does not consider sharing the worries for His Majesty or the General. Instead, he will be blinded by his own interests. For his own desire for power, he will make extra troubles and shake the morale of the army. It is really a capital crime!"

"I impeach Cai Yi, I hope His Majesty will send him to prison and punish him with death!"

Huo Dang is going to flip the table?
"Whether the ancestral system can be changed?" This question has been discussed for three days and three nights, and I am afraid that it is not clear. It is an endless question.

Instead of getting entangled with this old Confucian, it is better to break through from the side and directly sacrifice the magic weapon of "shaking the morale of the army", which can solve Cai Yi once and for all.

This is the style of Huo Guang and Ren Gong as doers - barbaric, direct, domineering, and effective.

Before Cai Yi could speak to defend, Taichang Lecheng also stood up immediately.

"The humble minister seconded the prime minister's words, Cai Yi's demonic words to confuse the public, for his own self-interest, disregarding the safety of the big man, his heart can be punished, I implore your majesty to send him to prison!"

Then, some courtiers stood up and seconded the matter mentioned by Prime Minister Ren Gong.

This includes You Fufeng, Jing Zhaoyin and the new Jianzhang Weiwei...

After a while, more than 20 courtiers stood up in the hall.

Huo Guang looked at the remaining courtiers calmly, seeming to be threatening or provocative.

None of Zhang Anshi, Bingji, Liu De, Wei Xian, Wang Ji and others stood up. They stood there silently, expressionless, as if the affairs in the palace had nothing to do with them, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

In Huo Guang's eyes, these people are either inseparable from Huo Guang, or have had a rift with Huo Guang for a long time, or are fame seekers, or are cautious people...

No matter what their status is, although they are in high positions, they will never turn against themselves because of Cai Yi.

In the past ten years, Huo Guang has never completely mastered all the courtiers.

However, by controlling the few minions who dare to fight with others, he can drive away wolves and tigers with small gains.

Just like at this moment, with Ren Gong and others in front of him, he doesn't need to show up, but he can still control the situation and drive Cai Yi into a situation where there is no redemption.

Huo Guang saw that the rest of the courtiers dared not speak out, but it didn't matter.

At this moment, there is still one person who needs to stand up, and that is Ting Wei Li Guang beside Huo Guang.

Like An Le, Tingwei Li Guang is actually a fool.

It doesn't hurt to be without him on weekdays, but today he has to show up.

Because Li Guang is a Ting Wei, he is indispensable to convict Cai Yi.

Huo Guang turned his head slightly, and gave Li Guang a look.

Li Guang hesitated, but still stood up.

"Your Majesty, Li Guang, Weichen Lieutenant, thinks that Cai Yi, the imperial censor, is disrespectful in front of the emperor and should be punished according to the law." Li Guang's words were a little light, but at least he also expressed his attitude.

A smile appeared on Huo Guang's face, and he looked cruelly at the bewildered Cai Yi.

At this time, in the middle of the front hall, more than twenty courtiers were kneeling together, only Ren Gong and Cai Yi were still standing.

Ren Gong's eyes were aggressive, and Cai Yi's panic became more and more obvious.

This old man who had lost his mind for some reason, looked around blankly, as if he was looking for help, but there seemed to be no one to help him.

Finally, he actually looked up at the emperor.

Huo Guang found it even more funny, the emperor will not save you.

I wanted you to retire in the post of doctor censor, why did you seek your own death?

Just when Huo Guang was about to stand up and ask the emperor to send Cai Yi to the imperial prison to give Cai Yi a final blow, the voice of the emperor floated down from the jade steps again.

"I have already understood what Cai Qing and Ren Qing are arguing about."

"Cai Qing wants the subjects of the world to write letters to me directly, in order to let me speak out widely and accumulate experience in governance."

"Ren Gong believes that Cai Yi's move is out of selfishness, suspected of shaking the morale of the army, and harboring evil intentions."

"You two lovers, am I right?"

The emperor's voice was very calm, like a ladle of cold water, temporarily extinguishing the anger in the palace.

Everyone, including Huo Guang, raised their heads and looked at the emperor.

"What Your Majesty said is exactly what I think."

This statement was actually made by Cai Yi and Ren Gong at the same time.

"I stand far away, so I haven't seen it clearly, but it seems that there are not many people kneeling in the hall, and most of the nine ministers have not expressed their views, so I still want to hear other people's opinions."

"Father Zhong, you are the great Sima and one of the three princes. I would like to hear your opinion on this matter first."

For some reason, Huo Guang suddenly noticed something strange at this moment.

Not only because the emperor cut off the conversation, but also because the emperor's voice seemed to be far away from him today.

Could it be that the tinnitus symptoms caused by the wind and cold have not been alleviated?

Huo Guang didn't think much about it, he took that step forward with Fu Jian.

Huo Guang was already tall and tall, standing among the courtiers bowing down, he stood out from the crowd.

However, no matter how tall Huo Guang was, standing here, looking at the emperor standing above the jade steps, he still needed to look up.

Today, Huo Guang feels that today's emperor seems to be a little different from the past.

But Huo Guang didn't have time to think about it, so he slowly said: "In the past, Emperor Xiaowu transferred the power of dealing with chapters to the Shangshu Office, so that all government orders come from the emperor."

"It doesn't matter whether the memorial goes to the Shangshu Office or to the Yushi doctor's mansion, there is no difference. Therefore, the veteran believes that there is no need to add extra details."

"On the other hand, Cai Yi, as a royal censor, should know that the most important thing for the great man today is the Northern Expedition of the army. Now I think it is inappropriate to raise such an important discussion. Although it did not cause turmoil in the court, it will inevitably make people feel angry float."

"The old man thinks that Cai Yi is also an old minister, and he has worked hard without credit, so there is no need to go to prison, but I am afraid that it is not appropriate to hold the post of Yushi doctor in the court."

Although Huo Guang's words are reasonable, they are obviously singing a double reed with Ren Gong and others.

A hundred steps forward, ten steps back—in short, Cai Yi is going to be kicked out of the court.

Cai Yi was also very angry at this time, he took a step back, pointed at Huo Guang and said, "Huh, the general said that this is for the sake of government orders, all from the emperor, don't you feel guilty, whether it is Emperor Xiaozhao or His Majesty today, when Have you seen the chapters played by courtiers and common people?"

"Even His Majesty can't see Zhang Zuo. If Emperor Xiaowu has a spirit in heaven, I'm afraid he will be disappointed."

Cai Yi's stubbornness and stubbornness are beyond Huo Guang's imagination, and the other party has left no room for it now.

"Cai Yi! By saying this, are you saying that the old man has overstepped his authority?" Huo Guang said gloomyly, staring at Cai Yi with a pair of tiger eyes.

"Don't beat me up, General, just say one thing, although you are the assistant minister, you don't let His Majesty see all the chapters..."

When Cai Yi said this, he seemed to be a little out of breath, and he seemed to have made a lot of determination to squeeze out the last few words from his teeth.

"Aren't you afraid of people in the world saying that you act arbitrarily and plot wrongdoing? Don't let the subjects of the world directly report to the emperor? Are you afraid of being impeached?"

Cai Yi asked a few times in a row, each sentence hit Huo Guang's vital point.

Together with Huo Dang who was kneeling on the ground, everyone looked at the thin Cai Yi with unbelievable eyes.

Some words are not weighed, they weigh four liang;

Huo Guang, who was in a hurry, also felt chest tightness, and a layer of black mist suddenly flashed in front of his eyes again.

How could it be possible that Huo Guang didn't know what Cai Yi said - he knew that there were many people under the court who were slandering him.

However, as long as it is not on the bright side, then you can feel at ease that they do not exist.

Putting it in the court hall, it was like slapping Huo Guang in the face.

Huo Guang denied it was not, and certainly not.

This damn Cai Yi!

After the silence in the palace, Huo Guang bowed to the emperor, and said with a sense of righteous indignation: "Your Majesty, what Cai Yi, the censor doctor said, is a theory to punish one's heart, and the old minister should not argue again."

"Whether to let the subjects of the world directly report to the emperor, I implore your Majesty to decide!"

Since it's hard for me to speak, let the emperor decide.

Once the Son of Heaven made a decision, Cai Yi had no way to speak - Huo Guang had such confidence that the Son of Heaven would not listen to the advice of this crazy old man.

Huo Fengfeng was on the ground, waiting for the voice of the emperor, and everyone was waiting for the voice of the emperor.

"I have already understood everything that you Ai Qing said."

"Mr. Cai wants me to directly see the memorials of the subjects of the world. Naturally, he has good intentions."

"Father Zhong wants the government order of the Han Dynasty to come from a Yamen, and there are some reasons for it."

"If you want to ask my opinion, I am also very hesitant. Like Father Zhong, it is difficult for me to make a decision."

"I agree with Cai Qing's proposal, it seems that I don't trust Zhong's father."

"I agree with Zhongfu's proposal, but I am afraid that Zhongfu will be slandered by the people of the world."

……

The more Huo Guang listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. His own attitude was already so obvious. Why did the emperor still compare Cai Yi with himself?
Is the emperor really considering Cai Yi's proposal?
"I said it just now, and I want to hear the opinions of other courtiers. Now only Father Zhong has said it. What do the rest of the courtiers think?"

Huo Fengfeng was on the ground, so he couldn't raise his head yet, and could only silently wait for the courtier's reaction.

He didn't think that anyone would dare to stand up at this moment and say something insane about "disregarding the overall situation"-this almost meant fighting him to the death.

However, before Huo Guang could express his arrogance, he heard someone standing behind him.

"My minister, Zongzheng Liu De, believes that the subjects of the world can directly write letters to His Majesty, and the Shangshu Office can still govern the government as before. This can be considered as a way of spreading the word. The general is open and aboveboard, and he can also prove his innocence without fear of rumors."

There was no wave in Liu De's words, as if he had thought for a long time before saying it.

Huo Guang sneered, this matter is indeed related to Liu De, the Marquis of Yangcheng cannot stay for this year.

Unexpectedly, a second person seemed to stand up.

"Weichen Shaofu Bingji, coordinating Zongzheng Liude, His Majesty has only been on the throne for a few months, but he is well-organized and harmonious, and has the demeanor of a wise monarch. If he can read the letters from the subjects of the world, he will be able to learn more about the government, so that he can take charge of the government as soon as possible in the future."

Huo Guang frowned, feeling a little more puzzled in his heart. Bingji had once been his long history, and he was only recently promoted to be a young man by himself. Why did he collude with Liu De today?
Is this a coincidence or a conspiracy?

Huo Guang couldn't think of the reason why Bingji "betrayed" him, he just found it incomprehensible.

"My minister, Zhang Anshi, seconded Zongzheng Liu De..."

The beep that had always been in Huo Guang's ears became louder, so that what Zhang Anshi said later, he heard a little unreal.

but……

These few people are just the beginning.

The court, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly became lively.

Courtiers stood up one after another.

"Wei Xian, a small minister, Dahong, and Wei Xian, seconded Zongzheng Liu De..."

"Liu Jia, Doctor Guanglu of Weichenmenxia Temple, seconded Zongzheng Liu De..."

"The humble minister advised Zhang Yi, the doctor, and supported Zongzheng Liu De..."

……

"Weichen Taixue Ling Wang Shi, leading the doctoral officers to support Zongzheng Liu De..."

"Weichen Weiyang Weiwei Wang Ji, seconded Zongzheng Liu De..."

The courtiers stood up one after another, kneeling down behind the group of lonely Huo Dang one after another.

The "plop sound" of knees touching the ground was endless, gathering together, like the roar of the Yellow River bursting.

Those Huo Dang who knelt down earlier, no longer caring about their appearance, turned their heads to look behind them, with frightened expressions on their faces.

Many less important courtiers standing on the outermost side also stood up one after another, and then knelt down behind them.

Without exception, they all supported Zongzheng Liu De.

Huo Guang felt a dull pain in his chest, and the black mist in front of him became heavier and wider.

For some reason, he was in a trance, as if everything was just a dream.

At this moment, this political strongman who has dominated the court for more than ten years felt bored, angry, puzzled and weak.

He no longer cared about the so-called court etiquette, and stood up from the ground.

In a slight shaking, the whole person almost fell down.

But finally, he stood firm.

Turn around and look.

From less than half a foot behind him to the gate of the front hall a few feet away, all the courtiers were kneeling.

Not only courtiers, but also clan relatives.

When the black mist in front of Huo Guang's eyes completely disappeared again, he finally saw that there were only a dozen or so ministers standing in place in the whole hall.

There are more than 20 people in the Huo Party, but there are more than 50 people who oppose the Huo Party, and there are more than a dozen people who are vacillating.

Among those courtiers who stood up to second Liu De, many of them belonged to high-ranking officials without real power.

In Huo Guang's eyes, it belongs to the category of not much more and not much less - this is the leftover problem after Emperor Xiaowu opened up the Chinese court.

But at this moment, the addition of these foreign officials who had not completely lost their influence made Huo Guang feel a lot of pressure.

When did the general situation in the court become like this?

Huo Guang couldn't figure it out.
