Chapter 94 Canonization Storm (11)
The emperor imprisoned Tian Yingyuan. Except for military generals, most of the civil officials submitted memorials, opposing the "Hu Concubine Hu's entry into the palace" and requesting the release of Tian Yingyuan. The emperor kept all these memorials and had unclear attitude, but did not forcibly enthrone Dai Yilan again, but just handled government affairs as usual.
All signs show that the emperor has actually surrendered and is just missing a ladder to step down.
In fact, everyone knows very well that as long as Tian Yingyuan gave a memorial and admitted his mistake, the emperor followed suit, and the matter would be over.
However, it is said that Tian Yingyuan was admitted to the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei, and was very tough and refused to admit his mistakes. It is said that not only did he not admit his mistakes, he instead scolded Ma Jixiang, saying that he was willing to be an emperor's hawk and dog, harming loyal and kind, etc.
Recently, there was a rumor that Tian Yingyuan was tortured by Ma Jixiang and was no longer a human being, and would die in prison sooner or later.
As soon as the news came out, Zhu Youlang's ladder was gone, and there was no chance of reconciliation between the monarch and his ministers.
Huangfu. Study room.
After listening to the report from his family, Huang Rizhang smiled proudly and said to Huang Yue: "The heat is almost done. Let Su Mingfeng secretly encourage him. Why don't the civil servants who claim to be noble still catch fire immediately? I want to see how Yongli will end!"
"Father, do you need to add more fire?"
"No need, too much is too little. Li Yongmao is very ambitious. He is unwilling to be at the end of the Six Tribes. He will definitely seize this opportunity and expand his influence among the scholars. What he probably thought was that after this matter, he became the leader of a large number of civil officials. Will Yongli still despise his existence?" Huang Rizhang said.
Then he sneered contemptuously: "It's such a good gunshot. Yue'er, you give Su Mingfeng a message and let others show your face. Be sure to hide behind you and never show your feet."
"Yes, father."
"Okay, let's wait and see the show."
...
The next day, Zhu Youlang presided over the "Dawn Meeting" as usual.
Suddenly, there were crowds of people outside the Qinzheng Hall.
"Li Hong, go and see what's going on? Who is making noise outside the hall?" Zhu Youlang said in a desperate attempt.
"Yes." Li Hong turned around and went out, and soon hurried back to report: "Your Majesty, it's not good. Twenty-three officials knelt outside and said he would ask the emperor to release Tian Yingyuan."
"Who are they?"
"I don't recognize it completely, and I am the Censor Fu Zuolin. I have it in each department, and I am all officials below the doctor."
When he heard this, Qu Shisi, Chen Zizhuang, Chen Bangyan and Lu Daqi looked shocked. Wu Bing was slightly stunned, and then he returned to his calm and gentle expression. Li Yongmao was excited and his eyes shone.
"Feng Dao and Frost Sword are fierce. I want to calm down the situation, but why are there people unwilling to accept it? Well, I will deal with this matter today." When Zhu Youlang heard this, the fire in his heart suddenly arose.
"I sent an order to bring Tian Yingyuan to the palace, and Yang Qiaoran and officials above the ministers of various departments came to the palace." Zhu Youlang told Chen Bowen.
"Abide by the order."
Chen Bowen bowed and hurriedly went down to pass the imperial edict.
"Your Majesty, the dragon body is important, please calm down!" Everyone in the palace saw that the emperor was so angry that his face was blue, and hurriedly knelt down. Wu Bing and Lu Daqi spoke out.
"Your Majesty, why bother to get angry? I think it would be a good thing to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be bad if this matter is always indecisive." Qu Shixi said.
"Well, I'm not angry about these people outside. They have a small position and a small position. It's fine if they don't understand my hard work. I'm angry that some ministers I regard as confidant actually secretly connect with each other, intending to use all the civil and military officials in the court to put pressure on me. Today, the scene of forcing the palace was staged. The storm is about to come and the wind is full of the building, and this storm is actually the cause of my confidant ministers. How can I not be angry?" Zhu Youlang gritted his teeth, looking heartbroken.
"Emperor, I..." When Li Yongmao heard this, he knew that the emperor was talking about him, so he hurriedly spoke out to defend himself.
"Stop! Kneel to the corner of the hall! Wait for the ministers to come to the hall later and you will have the chance to speak." Zhu Youlang said sternly.
"Everyone else is flat."
Qu Shisi, Wu Bing and others stood up and retreated aside.
When Zhu Youlang saw Qu Shisi's face was serious, Wu Bing's face was calm, but Lu Daqi looked anxious. He looked at himself and Li Yongmao again. Chen Zizhuang also looked anxious, but he was looking at him, clearly anxious about himself.
The strangest thing is Chen Bangyan, with anger and sad face, his teeth tightly clenched, and the muscles on his cheeks trembled.
Zhu Youlang guessed the thoughts of others. Chen Bangyan didn’t understand what he meant?
Everyone has their own confidants and no one speaks.
The atmosphere in the hall was very depressing.
Fortunately, after a while, Ma Jixiang came to the hall with Tian Yingyuan, and Yang Qiaoran and the ministers and above also came to the hall.
"Li Hong, I have issued an order to ask the famous ministers outside who were knocking on their way to kneel in the hall, so as not to burn these loyal ministers." Zhu Youlang said coldly.
After a while, officials with Fu Zuolin came into the hall and knelt down together.
When Zhu Youlang saw these people, he looked upright and righteous, especially Fu Zuolin, who showed a sense of arrogance and self-confidence between him, as if he was doing so justly and gloriously.
Seeing this formation, Bai Xing was startled. He quickly sent an order to order all the guards to come to Qinzheng Hall, and he himself led four subordinates to guard the entrance of the hall tightly in case of an accident.
"Mr. Bai, don't be nervous. These people can't do anything. Besides, I have brought some people, why are you afraid?" Ma Jixiang saw his nervous look and hurriedly said to Bai Xing quietly.
"Be careful." Bai Xing gave him a blank look, ignored him, and looked at the situation in the hall nervously.
"Li Yongmao, Tian Yingyuan, kneel in front of you." Zhu Youlang said in a desperate attempt.
Li Yongmao and Tian Yingyuan knelt forward as they said.
Everyone in the palace was stunned when they saw Tian Yingyuan. He was free to move, his clothes were neat and rosy. Those who knew him even saw that he was a little fatter than before he was imprisoned. How could he have the legendary torture and bloody appearance? Was he going to jail or enjoy his happiness?
"It's not a legend today. Tian Yingyuan was tortured by Ma Jixiang in the Zhao Prison and was so bloody that he was not human, and his life was hanging on the line. It was so terrifying, as if I were such a cruel monarch." Zhu Youlang spoke with a sneer.
"Fu Zuolin, you probably heard about this news and brought someone to knock on the verge, right?"
"Back to the emperor, yes." Fu Zuolin replied.
"Then look, can Tian Yingyuan look like the legendary one?"
"When I go back to the emperor, Lord Tian is intact. I accidentally listened to others and asked the emperor to punish him. I am guilty of the crime. Although I have no regrets in my death, can I risk my life to submit a memorial for the emperor's fault?" Fu Zuolin was not afraid and made a generous speech.
"Haha, you have such a loyal minister's character. Fu Zuolin, it seems that you are determined to be a loyal minister who has been famous for all ages. However, you are a loyal minister, are I a fool?"
