Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 240 The Struggle in the Court
Wang Pingan heard the words and exclaimed: "Uncles, what do you mean? My nephew remembers that all my brothers have also been trained by my nephew and have become good special forces. Why did you find my nephew?"

So everyone slapped their foreheads loudly and said: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot about this?"

Just as Wang Pingan was about to say something, the gate of the palace was slowly opened. After the imperial army in full armor went out, they stood on both sides, leaving the Suzaku gate empty.

The Taiji Palace stands on 36 stone steps. Standing under the stone steps, you can only see the upturned cornices. The auspicious beasts on the eaves, Xiezhi, look more majestic in the twilight sky.

A eunuch trotted up to the high steps and shouted at the top of his voice, "Go to court, and all the ministers and workers will see you."

Wang Ping'an watched a lot of eunuchs calling for officials to play on TV, especially during the Qing Dynasty, when eunuchs called one eunuch after another. With that voice, I believe that this one in front of him would be willing to bow down, Wang Ping'an was thinking as he walked.

Li Jing walked up to him and asked softly: "Boy, the special forces showed their power yesterday and killed [-] Tang soldiers. There must be many people impeaching you today. What do you plan to do? Do you need help from the old man and others?" help."

Wang Pingan also said softly: "Thank you, Uncle Li, for your kindness. If there is a need, my nephew will definitely ask an uncle for help."

"Well, you have to remember that now you are on our Jiangmen side. No matter who is against you, even if you are against the Jiangmen, even a thousand-year-old family can't do anything to you." Li Jingxiang turned to Wang Ping'an Said as promised.

Wang Pingan thought for a while and said, "Uncle Li, my nephew really needs your help with something. There were a lot of dead soldiers in the special forces reserve camp yesterday. I don't know, please help to investigate secretly."

"Sad man, this is no small matter. The old man will investigate. You can relax for now." Li Jing comforted.

"Well, thank you, Uncle Li." Wang Ping'an clasped his fists at Li Jing and saluted.

The empty hall was overcrowded in an instant, the location of the court hall had been arranged, and they would not easily move their seats. The hall was full of cushions, and they all sat on their knees when they went up to court. They each found their own seats and knelt down, waiting for Li The arrival of two.

After Wang Pingan found a seat and sat down, he attracted a lot of attention, and the discussion started, and he could faintly hear the evaluation of Wang Pingan, some good, some bad, and some flattering him as unprecedented. Child prodigies, of course, there are those who scold their mothers, and those who harbor hatred, anyway, they have everything.

He just went in one ear and out the other, and instead dozed off. Changsun Wuji and the other real bigwigs in the court couldn't laugh or cry at this. They were worried about him, but he fell asleep heartlessly. caught.

Li Er came, because it was not a grand court meeting, so he only wore a python dragon robe, sat on a high dragon chair, and looked down at the officials with a majestic expression.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

After the officials shouted long live three times, Li Er accepted the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping from the officials, and shouted: "Free from courtesy."

Afterwards, the officials began to kneel and sit on their cushions, with expressions on their faces, holding the jade case in their hands, waiting for Li Er's opening remarks: "My dear friends, do you have something to play?"

As soon as Li Er finished speaking, a young official jumped out, bowed to Li Er, and said, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach Flying Tiger General Wang Pingan and his special forces."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Er asked indifferently.

But Wang Pingan looked at this young official who didn't even know the other party's name in surprise, and thought, "Who is he? Did I offend him?"

The young official glared at Wang Ping'an, and continued to say angrily: "Yesterday, Wang Ping'an led troops into Dou's house and killed [-] soldiers led by Dou Yanshan who came to rescue him. I want to impeach him for killing innocent people. It is an unforgivable crime to break into the Duke's mansion without permission."

When Wang Pingan saw that someone dared to impeach him, he knew that the other party was going to target him. This was forcing him to fight back. He showed a mysterious smile and shook his head at the young official in front of him.

"Wang Ping'an, do you have any excuses for this matter?" Li Er asked flatly.

Wang Ping'an didn't pay attention to this person at first, but now that Li Er asked, he could only get up lazily, and said: "I will not pay attention to people who accuse others without evidence, let alone explain .”

Crazy, very crazy, very frivolous, Wang Pingan once again gave people an impression of arrogance.

"Evidence, the female family members and servants of Duke Dou's mansion are all evidence, the corpses of the five hundred soldiers are evidence, and the people of Duke Dou's mansion are also evidence. Isn't that enough?" the young official said angrily.

Wang Ping'an frowned and said, "Well, it's barely evidence, right? But it's not enough. Such evidence can overthrow them casually."

"What, is it possible that General Flying Tiger can turn right and wrong?"

Wang Ping'an frowned and said, "Contradict right and wrong, the boy doesn't have that ability, but I don't know if this lord has any opinion on the boy, and he will impeach the boy as soon as he goes to court."

The young official said: "I have no grievances against you, why should I impeach you? It is because you have done something that both human beings and gods are angry with, which is beyond the tolerance of heaven."

"Oh, that's how it is." Wang Ping'an said to Li Er with a good expression that I understood, "Return to your majesty, it is really difficult for me to refute this lord's words. It's just that it's hard for a lord to let me speak alone." People are convinced, I don’t know if there are those adults who also feel that the boy has done something that both humans and gods are angry with, so they can stand up and impeach the boy together.”

The young official said angrily: "What do you mean? Could it be that what I said is a lie?"

"Is it a lie, I don't know, but I know one thing, all the civil and military officials in the court, only you, the adults, think that the boy has done something that is outrageous and unacceptable, but the rest of the ministers don't think so , I don’t know if it’s your fault, or these adults’ fault?” Wang Ping’an talked eloquently.

"Of course I'm not wrong." The young official just finished speaking, realized that he was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "The other adults are not wrong either."

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "My lord's words make it difficult for the kid. You said you were right, and the other adults were also right. Did the kid do something that angered both humans and gods when he fell to the ground? Ah, yes, my teacher once said , the truth is in the hands of many people, it seems that everyone should not believe your words, but should believe the words of the ministers, the boy is innocent."

Wang Pingan paused, and said as if talking to himself: "This made the kid believe it. I didn't do a thing that was outraged by humans and gods, and it was unacceptable. Thank you, my lord, thank you so much."

Wang Ping'an's words made many officials who watched the show almost burst into laughter, but on the contrary, the young official vomited blood because of Wang Ping'an's words, which made him vomit blood even more. He is a good courtier in his eyes!"

Wang Pingan looked at the young official with satisfaction, but it didn't take long for him to be complacent, when more than [-] officials appeared in the group of officials, cupped their hands at Li Er and said, "I agree with the words of Master Cui from Zhongshushe."

"Wei Chen also agrees with the words of Mr. Cui from Zhongshushe."

"Weichen also agrees with Master Cui's words."

"My minister also agrees."

...................
More than [-] ministers jointly said that Wang Ping'an had done a thing that was outraged by both humans and gods, and that it was intolerable. The dozen or so officials immediately felt much better, especially the young official, who let out a mouthful of foul breath and looked excitedly at the speechless Wang Pingan.

Li Er looked at the twenty and said: "My dear friends, if there are still people who feel that Wang Ping'an led the army to take away my uncle's family and killed five hundred soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, they are all guilty, and they can stand up. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer.”

Quiet, the entire court fell silent, and after waiting for half a cup of tea, someone stood up again at noon, and this time it was Changsun Wuji who stood up.

He said: "Your Majesty, I feel that there must be a reason for Wang Ping'an's actions. I heard that there was a fight on Zhuque Street in Chang'an yesterday. Flying Tiger General Wang Ping'an led a group of unprofessionals who often oppressed the people." They were arrested, and then a group of lawbreakers were ordered to go to public trial in Chang'an County, and it was discovered that Chen Yifeng, Chen Yushi and Qian Fuyin were their backers behind the scenes. , is unknown to everyone.”

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have also heard about this matter, and I have also asked about it. Many people have learned that there is a group of people oppressing the people on Zhuque Avenue, murdering and setting fires, colluding with the government, kidnapping and extorting, etc. , They call themselves the Zhuque Gang, and the other is the Chang'an Gang, and the crimes they committed are too numerous to record." Wei Zheng also stood up, and he was known as an admonisher, and he was very contemptuous of these people who bullied the people.

If there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be three. The number of people speaking for Wang Ping'an has increased a lot in an instant, almost as many as the people who impeached him.

Wang Pingan found out that those who impeached him were from aristocratic families, while those who spoke for him were from poor families and generals.

Wang Ping'an is a member of the poor family, and also a member of the general family, and Wang Ping'an is vaguely helping the poor family to create an identity, that is, doing business and becoming a rich man, so how can those people help Wang Ping'an.

On the contrary, those from aristocratic families are not willing to distribute the benefits to others. Wang Pingan created a commercial plaza, which made those aristocratic families see huge benefits, but they did not have their share. This has already made them endure, but this time How could they bear to overthrow the Dou family, which was also a thousand-year-old family, so they wanted to impeach Wang Ping'an.
