Chapter 432: Court Discussion
Chapter 432: Court discussion
He quickly walked to the front yard, and the middle gate had already opened. The eunuch Chen Ao also knew him. After both sides nodded and greeted him, Chen Ao bowed slowly and shouted: "I welcome the imperial edict."
Although he looked cynical and had a sweat, fortunately, Shen Ao still had some calm cultivation so that he would not lose his share in front of many people.
The eunuch opened the imperial edict, his eyes swept over the imperial edict, and suddenly became embarrassed, and he slowly said: "Corruption is...Corruption is...Corruption..." After reading it, it was stuck.
Chen Ao was anxious below, thinking to himself what was wrong with this person? He couldn't help but have the worst plan.
The eunuch finally calmed his mind and said with a strange face: "Jian: Chen Ao, you deserve to die!"
For a moment, there was no sound, and Chen Ao was still waiting to listen to what happened later, but the eunuch had already rolled up the imperial edict, and Chen Ao raised his eyes: "It's over?"
"It's over!"
Chen Ao is speechless, this is also called the imperial edict? There are only five words in total, or a slanderous scolding. Is the emperor confused?
Chen Ao couldn't help but have many thoughts in his heart, guessing various possibilities, but he honestly accepted the imperial edict, pulled the eunuch aside, and asked, "Dad, what news is there in the palace?"
The eunuch shook his head: "The family is just a mess in Ruisi Hall. Where can I get any news?"
Chen Ao nodded, sent him away, and opened the imperial edict for a while. The father-in-law read it right, it was indeed five words, and the will was very indecent. Damn it? Why should it be damn it? This holy intention is really hard to guess.
But at least the order to strip the official and eliminate the title was not issued, which made Chen Ao see a little hope again and said to himself in his heart: Be calm, be calm, what are you afraid of!
So he came to the back garden and asked someone to serve tea and pastries, and had enough food and drink. He raised his imperial edict in his hand and said to Zhou Ruo indignantly: "Look, this is the emperor's talent, look at how censors curse people? That's the level. He scolds people seriously and does not spit out dirty words. Look at this imperial edict, it's vulgar!"
Chen Ao elongated his voice in disgust. Obviously, this stupid scolding made him feel very unhappy. At least he would have a happy life or death. As a result, such a decree was still hanging, making Shen Dacaizi still worried.
Zhou Ruo covered his mouth and chuckled: "Be careful, the government will find out, and you will feel better."
Chen Ao put down the imperial edict and smiled and said, "I'm allowed to scold me, but I won't complain? It's easy for men to endocrine if they can't vent... Cough cough... If you don't say this, don't say this, you won't say it's not serious."
Chen Ao made a few nonsense, and Liu Sheng ran over again on the other side and said hurriedly: "Young master, another father-in-law is here."
"Is there another imperial edict?"
"It's not an imperial edict, it's said that His Majesty asked me, so I asked the young master to report it."
Chen Ao had to go to the front hall, but it was still the father-in-law who sent the order. The father-in-law smiled at Chen Ao and then said, "Mr. Shen, I have offended you just now."
"What is this? My father-in-law is also doing his duties according to the order. Your Majesty asked you to come, what are you going to ask?"
The father-in-law coughed and cleared his throat, and said, "Your Majesty asks you, what do you think after reading this imperial edict?"
I have many feelings, but unfortunately I can’t say it! I just complained to my wife, but if I scolded me, maybe another swearing imperial edict will come!
Chen Ao thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty's handwriting is better than before."
"This is the only one?"
"There is only this, as for the others, I can't even think about it. The unruly thing is just my appearance. In fact, my heart is still very pure, and I have no complaints."
The father-in-law was speechless and had to say, "The miscellaneous family immediately returned to the palace to report."
The father-in-law went there, and after half an hour, he rushed over again and said to Chen Ao: "Your Majesty asks you again, do you think Lord Shen deserves to die?"
What is this? The fool knows how to shake his head, and Chen Ao immediately said, "I think about it and think that this world still needs me, so I shouldn't die."
The father-in-law continued to ask: "Your Majesty also asked, will Lord Shen feel guilty if he is guilty if he is injustice?"
These questions are more tricky than the other, making people confused. Chen Ao racked his brains: "It seems that there is a little bit." Only God knows whether there is any, but it's just fooling around anyway.
The father-in-law took a sip of tea and said, "The family is here." Then he entered the palace again.
Chen Ao sighed and said to Liu Sheng beside him: "Your Majesty asked just now, have you heard it?"
Liu Sheng nodded: "I heard it."
"What do you think this means?"
Liu Sheng scratched his head and said, "If the young man knew, he should have been in the ranks."
Chen Ao nodded seriously and said, "You made a lot of sense, and I was deeply inspired."
Chen Ao hid in the study again and refused to come out again. As a result, after an hour, the father-in-law rushed over again and said to himself: "Your Majesty's verbal order, the court will discuss it tomorrow morning, and Lord Shen will enter the court tomorrow to listen to the Xuan."
It turns out that the imperial edict will be issued tomorrow before it is willing to be issued! Chen Ao is really speechless now, but he can only wait any longer.
…………………………………………………………
Not only Chen Ao was anxious, but the whole of Bianjing was waiting for this decree. The Empress Dowager was waiting, and the Empress Dowager was waiting. Cai Jing and Quartz were looking forward to it, but the result was not clear. No one knew who should celebrate. But the more this time, since His Majesty said he could wait, he could only wait.
There was no news in the palace, even Yang Jian, who was well-in-lawed, was confused. It is said that the emperor only hid in Wenjing Pavilion and no one allowed him to enter. Even if he had a meal, he would ask someone to take him in and send him out. Apart from asking his father-in-law to go in, constantly asking questions, and sending him out to ask Chen Ao's words, there was no other information.
The incident of the court discussion was spread, which caused many people to secretly speculate. After all, the court discussion was too strange, which made the old men who had been in the officialdom secretly guess that since it was a court discussion, it must be a discussion of major events, and Chen Ao's affairs were a big deal, but the imperial decree was not allowed to be discussed. Could it be that Your Majesty still wanted to ask someone to debate and fight the stage?
No, no, even if you want to fight, it will never be Chen Ao's business. The Empress Dowager is still lying on the sickbed. Wouldn't your Majesty be so upset?
Not to mention these old fried dough sticks, even Yang Jian and Cai Jing, who knew Zhao Ji's intentions, were also confused at this time.
Therefore, everyone is waiting. When tomorrow comes, many people are afraid that when tomorrow comes, they will get the result they don’t want to see, and then all their efforts will be wasted.
On April 12, 2019, the early morning of the fifth year of Xuanhe, everything in the streets and alleys of Bianjing was shrouded in soft morning light. The willow trees leading to the palace road lowered their heads and softly received the morning light. The tall poplar trees were like the stretched arms of a strong young man; the grass exuded a little faint greenness from the wetness, and the ridges extended in the morning light, and the vitality under the eaves gradually became clear.
Separate or ostentatious sedan gathered from all directions to Zhengde's door. The palace gate had not opened yet, but everything that was supposed to come came. Cai Jing always arrived the earliest, and it was obvious that the young and strong ones had not arrived yet. He had been waiting under this door for a long time. His expression was so gentle. When he saw someone, he smiled and greeted. It happened that Quarine and Zhou Zheng fell into the sedan chair together. Cai Jing walked over in person and said tremblingly: "The two princes came early."
Quartz and Zhou Zheng were laughing, bowing to Cai Jing and said, "The Grand Master laughed."
Standing and greeting for a while, he did not mention the matter of being arrogant. Both sides maintained a tacit understanding, talking about the world, talking about the past and the present, but they just didn't mention the most important things in front of them.
When the court officials saw Shi Ying, Zhou Zheng and Cai Jing greetings there, they all stood there silently. No one spoke, nor were they surprised. However, Wang Fu's sedan chair had just fallen and wanted to say a few words to Cai Jing, but seeing this situation, it was difficult to get over and could only stare at him.
Chen Ao hasn't come yet. Logically, this guy should have come long ago, but he has disappeared for a long time, which made many people look towards the Chen Mansion. This person is really strange, thanks to his ability to sit still.
Zhengde Gate opened buzzingly, first opened a gap, and then dozens of imperial guards finally opened the bulky city gate. After the door opening, a glazed tiles appeared. Everyone held their breath and stood there. Cai Jing was naturally in the first place and walked in first, followed by Quartz, Wang Fu, and Zhou Zheng.
At this moment, the horse's hooves came, and a man galloped over on a horse. The person on the horse was Chen Ao. Chen Ao smiled and turned over from afar, tied the horse to a branch, and said to an imperial guard on duty: "This horse is very valuable. Please help me watch it, don't let someone steal it."
Everyone was speechless. At this point, this guy was still thinking about his horse!
Chen Ao walked into the palace with a goldfish belt around his waist. He followed everyone to the martial arts hall, but no one talked to him. However, he met Jiang Min on the way. Jiang Min wanted to speak but stopped, and finally pursed her lips and swallowed the words into her stomach.
Before Zhao Ji arrived, everyone stood on duty, but no one was making noise. The needles in the hall were heard, and everyone had their own thoughts.
It took half an hour to wait. It is important to know that many people standing there are quite old. They can't stand such a stop. Finally, some people can't help stomping their feet, moving their legs back and forth, and moving their muscles and bones. However, the elderly Cai Jing was the most able to stand, and he was still motionless and had no intention of being tired at all.
"Your Majesty is here." This elongated scream finally broke the deadlock. As soon as he finished speaking, a man came from the ear room of the back hall, wearing a sky crown and a crown garment. Behind the pearl curtain, there was an unpredictable face. He walked to the Golden Palace and sat on the imperial desk with a big slapped look. His eyes were wandering around the hall through the pearl curtain. Finally, the stern gaze fell on Shen Ao. Zhao Ji snorted coldly and said unhappily: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Everyone said, "I don't dare."
Zhao Ji stood up, stretched out his fingers under his long sleeves, and said, "You don't dare to say anything. In fact, you are slandering. What are your ideas in your heart? Do you think I don't know?"
I don’t know who this sentence is alluded to, but the voices in the hall said one after another: “I’m going to die.”
