Chapter two hundred and thirty sixth eloquent words
Marshal Qiu shouted loudly: "Tie Zheng! Be careful of your words! Such a serious crime, such a heavy general; if you say nonsense, where is the evidence?"
While scolding, he winked his eyes in a hurry.
Tie Zheng was breathing, and the veins swelled up, but he finally calmed down. He just gritted his teeth and looked at Yang Botao hard. As long as he had the chance, he would go up and bite him!
"Your Majesty... Old Master... I'm late..." A sound of gasping sounded at the entrance of the hall. An old man with white hair and beard was hunched over, coughing while being helped in.
It was Fang Qingtian, the Taiwei of the Yutang Empire's military.
However, this Yu Tang who has been in the sky for so many years is now old and needs someone to support him even when walking. On his face covered with age spots, there are still scars everywhere.
It was an eternal commemoration left by the battle formation back then, demonstrating the glory of the battle formation back then for the veteran general.
The one who supported Fang Qingtian and Fang's old lieutenant came in was the old lieutenant's deputy and his proud disciple. Now Fu Baoguo, who is supervising the military department and overviewing the power of the country!
"Get a chair here!" His Majesty the Emperor ordered.
Until Fang Qingtian sat down, he was still breathless and was a little uneasy, saying, "The old minister... was ashamed and could not salute, but was given a seat by His Majesty; he was extremely ashamed."
His Majesty the Emperor was moved and said, "Today's matter is really important. I have no choice but to bother the old lieutenant to come to attend the meeting. It is my uneasy. My dear, please don't blame yourself."
"I dare to ask Your Majesty, what's going on when I summon me to come today?" Fang Qingtian asked.
His Majesty the Emperor sighed deeply.
The ministers knew that this moment was the real arrival of today's highlight. They all held their breath and kept their breath and paid attention to the subsequent development.
Only Tie Zheng still stared at Yang Botao fiercely as if he was looking at his irreconcilable enemy.
Yang Botao dared to look at each other at first, but later he turned his head away.
"Hey, in recent times... there have been so many things happening; especially the incident of the Nine Lords, which can be said to be the tragedy of my Yu Tang State..." As soon as His Majesty the Emperor spoke, it was an extremely heavy topic.
Yang Botao's face changed, and his eyes showed a hint of panic.
He obviously did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor would make this matter so directly, and something big happened!
"Before... so many things happened. I thought that the spy had already gone to that great purge, but now it seems that I am too optimistic, and now it is even more complicated..."
His Majesty the Emperor looked at Yang Botao: "Last night, Yang Botao, the commander of the Northern Army of Yutang, was assassinated. The assassin said in public that he was avenging the Nine Lords. This matter is not trivial..."
The civil and military officials in the court were silent together, and they were as quiet as death.
The old marquis' wrinkled face slowly raised his eyes, which had been covered by wrinkles, and glanced at Yang Botao.
This look seemed plain, intentional or unintentional, but Yang Botao suddenly burst into cold sweat.
A person’s ambition remains, but his majesty remains the same as before!
"Yang Botao, explain."
The old marshal Fang Qingtian said lightly; his eyes slowly closed. His whole body was like a rotten piece of wood, and it seemed that he was not angry at all.
But those who are familiar with him know that the old lieutenant used his unique skills at this time, and the sky was exquisite.
The old grand wise man's unique skill is rarely recorded in his life; the magic of this secret method is that he can hear the subtle mood swings in the heart of the person who speaks; in other words, any lies will be vain before the old grand wise man's Tianxin is refined, and his true form will be revealed.
Yang Botao stood up, still full of blood on his face, and hissed with grief and anger: "Last night, I was assassinated in the mansion; the attacking assassin was indeed swaying as the name of the Nine Lords, but all the people present knew that it was just a traitor, Zhang Guan Li Dai, who was just a traitor, was distorted by the real thing... Today, my first priority is to want His Majesty the Emperor to uphold justice for me and eliminate this stigma! But I didn't expect..."
Yang Botao said tragically: "As soon as he went to court, he was beaten up by Marshal Tiezheng indiscriminately; several colleagues called "Punishment of Fighting", but in fact they took the opportunity to pull and restrain my Yang Botao and let Tiezheng beat and torture..."
"When the old lieutenant arrived, His Majesty the Emperor started discussing the matter. The first thing he did was to ask me Yang Botao to defend himself!"
"I was assassinated first, then beaten, and then isolated, but now I still have to defend myself!"
"I, Yang Botao, have been in the army since I was a young man, and every battle was ahead; after more than 700 fierce battles of all sizes, I have reached this position; Your Majesty's grace is so great that Yang Botao is worried and afraid that he will not be able to repay his kindness..."
"In the battlefield in the north, Yang Botao fought day and night, and was only a matter of life and death. Although he had not made contributions to the country and could not expand his territory, he also ensured that his territory would not be lost in the face of the enemy..."
"Today, we are covered in scars and exhausted both physically and mentally."
Yang Botao choked up and tears shone in his eyes: "I have no doubt about some credit in the past; however, today, Your Majesty, the old Grand Marshal, all the civil and military officials all think I am guilty; I think the assassin's words are true; it is indeed my Yang Botao who conspired to murder the Nine Lords..."
"At this moment, how can I, Yang Botao, defend myself? I really have nothing to say. However, I have a passionate and loyalty, and I have never felt guilty. I must not be slandered without refuting. I, Yang Botao, have a reputation for my lifetime, and cannot be humiliated for nothing!"
"Since we cannot tolerate the world, we can only die to prove our innocence! I hope there will be a day when the black and white will be clear in his dynasty!"
Yang Botao looked fierce and so sad that he seemed to be out of reach. He suddenly roared and rushed to the front of the palace gate. With a clang, he had already snatched the long sword of the guard guard in his hand. The next moment, he cut his neck without hesitation.
"Yang Botao will serve His Majesty again in the next life!"
With a sudden shout, the sword had reached the neck.
A figure suddenly flashed.
Fu Baoguo, who was beside the old lieutenant, flashed like a ghost, grabbed the sword blade and stopped the speeding sword edge.
However, Yang Botao's neck was already bleeding.
A deep bloody cut appeared on the neck. If it penetrated half an inch further, it would be a life-threatening thing to turn the world back.
With such injuries, it is not difficult to meet Yang Botao just killed his own sword, and how heavy the attack was!
Although Fu Baoguo grabbed the blade and stopped Yang Botao from committing suicide, his right hand was already covered in blood and he shouted angrily: "The situation is not clear now. Just let you defend yourself, and you will seek death! Yang Botao, you are so disappointing to me!"
His right hand continued to exert force, snatched the sword back, and threw it out with a whoosh.
The long sword inserted into the land outside the hall gate with a "clang" sound, swaying continuously, the sword blade was cold, and dripping blood slowly flowed down the sword body.
The ministers looked at the long swords swaying at the gate of the hall, and everyone was silent.
Yang Botao's face was full of grief and anger, and suddenly burst into tears, tears streaming like a spring: "With such humiliation, what's the face of me, Yang Botao, living in this world? It's better to die, just to be clean!"
Fu Baoguo sighed, turned around and looked at the direction of the dragon chaise and fell to the ground: "Your Majesty, there may be something strange about this matter... I still need to be dealt with carefully; even if Yang Botao is really guilty, he still needs to be tried fairly to correct the court. If you are forced to do so in this way, it will be contrary to the law... Please think twice!”
While Yang Botao was bleeding, Fu Baoguo cried and asked for blood.
His Majesty the Emperor was also moved by it, but he did not mention it.
The old Grand Marshal Fang Qingtian still sat quietly and did not even move his eyelids.
Qiu Jianhan and Leng Daoyin stared at Yang Botao with their eyes as cold as a knife, their eyes were completely different from before.
Tie Zheng groaned and murmured: "Pretending to be disgusting!"
After a while, His Majesty the Emperor frowned and said in a deep voice: "This matter is related to the battle of the Nine Lords. It is not very related, and it is even more serious than the crime of treason. Ling Qiuleng, the two old marshals, the Grand Tutor, and the Prime Minister; the five parties investigated the joint investigation. The Grand Marshal was in the middle and coordinated and presided over the leadership. It is necessary to investigate the case clearly, do not be in vain and do not let the heroic spirits be hated in the nine springs, and it is difficult to distinguish between black and white!"
The court meeting was extremely abrupt. The sudden internal strife of the military was not aware of what happened. The civil servants were very interested and abnormal and didn't say much.
After all, for them, the internal strife of the military generals was a turmoil and a murderer. No matter who was eventually dismissed or even defeated, Yu Wenchen was happy to see it.
"This matter is decided by this. All the families of the ministers will be disbanded. The two marshals, Taiwei and Qiu Leng, stay to talk to me."
...
Scattered to the back.
Tie Zheng snorted coldly, and took the lead in leaving without hesitation. While walking, he murmured and cursed: "Disgusting! Trash! It's pretty like it. I really want to die of paralysis, why don't you break your heart meridians directly? Why don't you break the Tianling directly? You just rushed to the gate of the palace to grab the sword. After robbing, you have to kill yourself again... Bah! What... do you really think that others are blind?"
The other two burly generals strode to Tiezheng and caught up with Tiezheng: "Old Tie, it seems you know this. Tell us?"
"I'll say hurry!"
Tiezheng said hotly: "Do you two blind or your ears be deaf? Do you not tell me what happened? Do you not understand? If you are really blind and deaf, even if I tell you, can you hear me? I have no time to pay attention to you two stupid guys!"
The two generals said angrily: "Tie Zheng, we didn't offend you. What are you angry at us? We just want to know the truth. You just want to say it, but you don't want to say it. I'm going to be a bite and put on a pig's nose, what are you pretending to be!"
Tie Zhengquan pretended not to hear it, and continued to walk with a breeze. He had long legs and two steps. The two generals behind him were unwilling to accept it. They took three steps and two steps to catch up with him, and then asked him repeatedly. Then Tie Zheng said angrily: "What else can I say? The Nine Lords's imprisonment is the pain of Yu Tang's heart. However, with the Nine Lords' great supernatural powers, if they were not imprisoned by accident and betrayal, how could they encounter difficulties? Now Feng Zun appeared in person and proved Yang Botao in person, and he actually wanted to interrogate them! Your Majesty is clearly confused, and he is not distinguished from right or wrong. He also said that black and white are clear, and justice is in the hearts of the people. Interrogation is a waste of time, which will only make the heroes feel disappointed..."
Before he finished speaking, another general next to him covered his mouth tightly: "You bastard, do you really don't want to live anymore... He doesn't want to live anymore and don't say it in front of us..."
