Chapter 299 Upcoming (Part [-])

Soon it was time for the morning court, the gates of the palace opened wide, and an old eunuch appeared in front of everyone to invite civil and military officials to the morning court.

All the adults hurriedly arranged their clothes and crowns, lined up, and prepared to enter the palace with respectful expressions.The two prime ministers also winked at the old eunuch, for fear that he would speak disrespectfully if he didn't recognize Princess Zhongshan.

This made the old eunuch feel very strange. He glanced at the queue that had been lined up, and suddenly his eyes tightened. In the neatly lined up line, there were women and servants!

He was about to scold who it was, but he heard the prime minister cough.How could the old eunuch fail to hear such warnings after living in the palace for many years?Swallowing the words back to his stomach, he thought that these two prime ministers were responsible for the accidents, and it was his turn to take care of them, so he hurriedly urged everyone to enter the palace.The civil and military officials did not dare to delay, they all hurried to the main hall.

Dong Rong didn't expect to enter the palace gate so easily, and she even prepared a set of excuses, which seemed to be in vain.After all, Dong Rong didn't go directly into the hall to save face for the Daqi royal family, but waited outside the hall alone, thinking about going in to ask for an explanation after they finished their discussion.Even if everything makes sense, there must be a degree, otherwise it will be too much.

The young emperor sat high on the dragon chair, and before he could speak, he noticed that the ministers looked strange.One understandable, but all of them, then something must have happened!

The two prime ministers saw that the emperor's face was not looking good, so they hurried forward and reported all the news that Princess Zhongshan was waiting outside.

Hearing this, the young emperor's face was gloomy, he was very annoyed at Dong Rong's presumptuous behavior of ignoring him.But everyone went outside the hall, if they didn't bring her in and ask her clearly, there might be some troubles in the future.I could only grit my teeth and say, "Xuan!"

The little eunuch hurriedly shouted the summons, Dong Rong was outside, heard the summons and asked Jia Yi beside him to wait in place, and stepped up the steps calmly and entered the hall.

Regardless of the gazes cast on her by civil and military officials, Dong Rong kowtowed three times and bowed nine times in accordance with etiquette.

Seeing how courteous she was, the young emperor softened his expression and said calmly, "Free from courtesy."

Dong Rong took advantage of the situation and stood up. She was used to being free outside these years, so she really didn't like this kind of kneeling behavior.

"Why did Princess Zhongshan enter the palace today?" The young emperor was impatient in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest bit on his face.To put it bluntly, it was the same sentence, with big fists and a straight waist, Da Qi couldn't resist the grassland cavalry, so he had to forbear and give in.

Dong Rong was not stage-frightened either, and replied in a deep voice, "Report to the emperor, the minister's wife has a grievance to sue! I don't know if the emperor remembered an imperial decree ten days ago, specifying that Dali Temple should investigate the Maitreya sect's rebellious party, and now it has been investigated in the past ten days Where is the rebellious party? The assassination of the king of Zhongshan has so far been fruitless. Does the emperor not care about the blood of the royal family at all? The courtier’s wife also has no choice. The people panicked and nearly killed their lives, and they are still unconscious in the palace. The emperor is the emperor, and he really doesn't care about letting the Maitreya sect cover the sky? It can be so rampant under the feet of the emperor, and it is even more lawless in other places. Women and many common people are fair!"

The ministers were overwhelmed by her aura, and Dali Temple broke out in a cold sweat immediately after hearing it.He's going to be in trouble!

The young emperor was also stunned for a moment, and then Longyan was furious, "Where is the Zhengqing of Dali Temple! Is what Princess Zhongshan said true?"

The young emperor was slapped twice by Dong Rong's words, and the words clearly accused him of breaking his promise and being incompetent when he was climbed onto his head by a thief!What kind of organization is Maitreya?She actually did it under his nose!
Dali Temple Zhengqing's surname is Wen, and he is also a shrewd person on weekdays.Hearing this, he immediately bowed out, knelt down on the ground, and responded boldly, "Reporting to the emperor, this is an old minister's dereliction of duty. This Maitreya sect is indeed acting as rampant as the princess of Zhongshan said, but it is all trivial things, such as fighting and beating. The veteran wanted to arrest him, but there is not enough evidence to arrest people at random, I am afraid that the people will be angry, and they are still collecting evidence."

Dong Rong lowered her head and smiled sarcastically. This was just an excuse. This old minister must have been afraid of offending the people who backed the Maitreya Sect, so he didn't investigate.

The young emperor is so shrewd, how could he fail to see his prevarication, he was already angry, hearing what he said confirmed Dong Rong's accusation just now.Immediately, he slapped the Longshu case and said, "Well, you Wen Zhengsheng, you are so perfunctory to my will! Let the thieves run rampant and harm the people of Daqi, what crime should you have?"

Wen Zhengsheng knelt on the ground and kept shaking, kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty calm down, the old minister deserves to die, and death is not a pity. I just pray that the emperor will give the old minister a chance to make amends. The old minister must thoroughly investigate the Maitreya Sect as soon as possible."

After all, the official position of Zhengqing in Dali Temple is not small. Although the young emperor was furious, he didn't have the idea of ​​​​removing him immediately, at least he had to wait until the person who took over was selected before thinking about it.So he endured his anger and turned to look at Dong Rong. After all, the prairie cavalry thousands of miles away hadn't withdrawn yet, so he always had to take this aunt's opinion into consideration.

Although Dong Rong kept her head down, how could she not know that the young emperor was on the verge of becoming angry from embarrassment.She glanced at the old man kneeling on the ground and kowtowing. She didn't want to embarrass him too much, but she just took the opportunity to put pressure on him, and her real goal was to find out who was behind the scenes as soon as possible.

In this way, she naturally wants to give the young emperor a step, but she can't make the people in the court feel perfunctory.Thinking in this way, she said respectfully, "Reporting to the emperor, Mr. Wen was probably worried about the cavalry on the prairie thousands of miles away, so he dereliction of duty. Seeing that he has been an official for many years without any credit or hard work, the emperor will give you a good job." Let him have a chance. The minister believes that Lord Wen will definitely investigate thoroughly this time, so as to restore the peace of the people of Daqi."

When the words fell to the ground, everyone in the court changed their faces. This Zhongshan Princess is indeed a bold one.She was clearly saying that Mr. Wen was worried about the prairie cavalry, but in fact she meant that everyone was afraid of the prairie cavalry.Although they were indeed terribly afraid, they still felt very annoyed when the fig leaf was exposed so quickly.

It's a pity that no matter how angry the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were, they could only hold back and bear it.Although Dong Rong didn't persecute them directly, she was threatened all the time, which was also difficult.

Dali Temple Qing Wenzhengsheng knelt down to Dong Rong again and again, saying that he was grateful to Princess Zhongshan for giving him the opportunity to make up for it, but in his heart he wanted to kill her!The prairie cavalry suppressed the situation precisely for Princess Zhongshan, and if she spoke, the crisis could be resolved.But she just threatened it with this!It was for this reason that they couldn't afford to offend her, and they were tightly trapped to prevent her from leaving the capital.It is only because Princess Zhongshan is in Kyoto that they are safe.

Knowing that Dong Rong gave him the steps, the young emperor turned to Chao Wen with an impatient face and said, "Since Princess Zhongshan has spoken, Zhengqing of Dali Temple must thoroughly investigate the chaotic party and make amends!"

Wen Zhengsheng responded repeatedly, and then stood back in the queue with a pale face.

The young emperor now feels a headache when he sees Dong Rong, and Liu Shihao, a scholar of the Imperial Academy who was sent to negotiate, has not heard back yet, and the grassland cavalry has not retreated. It must be that something happened to Liu Shihao on the road and he has not yet arrived at the Beiman camp.

These people are all trash!Although he has great ambitions, it is difficult for one person to change this deep-rooted corruption. Daqi just lacks the talents who can take on great responsibilities!

Besides, Dong Rong saw that her goal had been achieved, so she didn't want to stay any longer, bowed again and knelt down and said, "In this case, the minister's wife will retire first, the emperor loves the people like a son, and this time he ordered a thorough investigation of the Maitreya sect's chaotic party, so as to restore the people's peace. Definitely welcome."

The young emperor frowned when he heard this, if the Maitreya religion is really as the princess of Zhongshan said, and no one acts recklessly in his eyes, then wouldn't the people outside the capital be oppressed?After thinking about it, I realized that something was wrong. Every county and town has set up a magistrate. If it was so early, someone should have reported it.

He looked at Dong Rong, knowing that this Princess Zhongshan was very popular.If the Maitreya Sect is really so arrogant, he will definitely eradicate this Maitreya Sect for both public and private purposes.

All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty wished that this bomb would explode at any time, go back to the palace and rest well, and don't appear in front of them again.Even the young emperor didn't want to see Dong Rong, and was threatened by her slap in the face early in the morning, and he was really in a bad mood.

They didn't want to see Dong Rong, and Dong Rong didn't want to see them. She pretended to be respectful and stepped back three steps before turning around and walking out of the hall. Even though there were dozens of pairs of eyes staring at the current emperor and civil and military officials behind her, she walked steadily. , not a trace of panic.

Dong Rong went out of the palace gate and went down the steps, Jia Yi immediately came up to greet her, seeing that the master was safe and sound, secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing his nervous appearance, Dong Rong couldn't help joking, "What? You don't believe what I said? They don't dare to do anything to me for now, even if they want to peel my skin one by one."

As soon as A heard his blood boil, he also disdainfully said, "Just relying on these ministers who only know how to eat, drink, and have fun, one subordinate can knock them all down. They dare to hurt the hair of the master, it is delusional!"

Of course, Dong Rong believed in the ability of Group A, and Jiayi was the best among them. With him by her side, she felt at ease.

She kept walking, walked out of the palace, squinted her eyes and looked at the surrounding chariots, horses and official sedan chairs, "Our goal has been achieved, the next thing is to see how they capture the followers of the Maitreya sect. Just beat the twelve Stare intently, this chaos, maybe the nobleman in the palace who supports the Maitreya Sect will show his feet."

Jia Yi replied in a low voice, "Master, don't worry, the subordinates will definitely send more people to keep an eye on them!"

Dong Rong nodded, thinking of the young emperor who was sitting on the dragon chair just now, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. Although he was young, his expression was calm and majestic, and his gestures showed the demeanor of an emperor.

It's a pity that she came here in a big wind and waves, even tried to be threatened with a knife on her neck, so naturally she didn't pay attention to his dragon power.But after thinking about it, he must have suffered a lot since he was trained to look like this at a young age.Compared with his own children, he is also a poor man.

While Dong Rong was gossiping, she got into the carriage, Jia jumped onto the shaft, and drove the carriage back to the palace.
