Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 208
[Chapter 208 Chaotang Shock]
Jinling, Imperial Palace.
The booklet in Zhao Heng’s hand fell to the ground, bead-sized beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his whole body trembled as if he had a cold syndrome.
Liang Cheng had never seen the emperor so terrified, he hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhao Heng, “Your Majesty, what’s wrong with you?
” Heng woodenly described the contents of the memorial.
This memorial was sent by someone from Ma Yuan, because Yanzhou is currently in turmoil.
The eight hundred miles that can be reached in three days are expedited, and it takes seven days to arrive.
“The Yuan family has rebelled!” Liang Cheng thumped in his heart, “So it is false to say that King Yan and General Mo colluded, and it is true that the Yuan family colluded with Beidi to rebel.”
Zhao Heng was sweating all over his face, and kept wiping his sleeves, ” It’s all my fault, why would I doubt King Yan and General Mo? If they were ordered to take down Yuan Li immediately, how could there be any disaster today?”
Liang Cheng’s heart seemed to be rolling on ice, and he realized a problem, “Then Yanguan?”
Hearing this word, Zhao Heng trembled even more, his face turned pale, “Ma Yushi said that he had appointed Mo Yu, the son of Mo Di, as the general of Yanguan temporarily, and the King of Yan also led troops to Yanguan. It’s gone.”
In his view, this was of no use at all.
If the Yuan family really colluded with Beidi Liying and foreign forces to attack Yanguan, how could the whole situation be saved by relying solely on King Yan?
“Call all the officials!” Zhao Heng roared.
Yanguan fell, and Dasong was in danger.
In his opinion, Yanguan could not be kept.
After that, Beidi’s army drove straight in, tearing the beautiful Dasong River and Mountains to pieces.
Liang Cheng immediately left the study room. Because of his panic, his foot was knocked down by the threshold and fell to the ground.
But he didn’t care to brush off the dust on his body, and immediately called the eunuch.
“Everyone has to go and call the ministers, run as fast as you can, go!” Liang Cheng stamped his feet and pointed to the outside of the imperial city.
The eunuchs also panicked. They had never seen Liang Cheng so anxious.
They went out of the palace gate and galloped their horses along the Royal Street.
On the road, he kept yelling to pedestrians to evade.
“What’s the matter, are these eunuchs crazy? Why are you in such a hurry.” A commoner said.
He has lived in the capital for more than twenty years, and he has never seen an eunuch in the palace lose his temper like this.
“Eighty percent of the time something major happened.” One person said.
“…”
Everyone was discussing, and after a while, they saw the ministers either riding horses, sitting in sedan chairs, or trotting towards the palace.
This made the people in the capital even more wildly guess.
“Could it be that the emperor has returned to the west…” a commoner whispered.
“This formation is really similar.” One person said.
“Nonsense, the emperor is only in his fifties, and he has no disease.”
“Hey, maybe this is true. It is said that the emperor is very romantic. Which man can stand such a toss…”
“Shut up, stop talking, one by one Courting death.”
“…” The
common people were confused, and the officials were equally confused.
I met colleagues on the road and they inquired about each other, but none of them got any news.
When he arrived at the palace, he was surprised to find that the emperor had arrived earlier than them for the first time, and was already sitting on the dragon chair waiting for them.
Seeing this, they were even more puzzled.
The sixth prince, Zhao Fang, and the second prince, Zhao Qu, came together.
As soon as the two entered the hall, they saw Zhao Heng’s eyes looking at them.
There was an anger in their eyes that made them fearful.
For so many years, they have never seen such a look in their father’s eyes.
They looked at each other, both worried.
When all the civil and military officials arrived, they were arranged on both sides.
Zhao Heng pointed to Zhao Fang, “Come here, take the sixth prince, Zhao Fang, and put him in the prison.” The
ministers were startled, and all looked at Zhao Fang.
Those who were put into the sky prison were all criminals.
What did the sixth prince do to make the emperor so angry.
Zhao Fang was even more horrified.
He asked himself that he hadn’t done anything during this time, but had a fight with a few honorable disciples.
This is just a trivial matter, why should I go to heaven.
“Father, my son has been wronged. I don’t know what crime my son has committed!” Yuan Hang immediately stepped forward and said, ”
Your Majesty, the sixth prince has always abided by his duty, and I hope His Highness will see clearly.”
Seeing Yuan Hang, Zhao Heng felt chills down his spine. , He pointed at Yuan Hang, and said anxiously: “There is also him, immediately drag him out of the Meridian Gate and beat him to death!” The
officials were even more puzzled by Zhao Heng’s gaffe.
Prime Minister Dou Wei raised his voice.
Not to mention that the current Dasong royal family and powerful clans are restricting each other.
Even in the heyday of the Dasong royal family, the emperor had to give a reason for killing people in the court.
He said: “Your Majesty, what crime did the Sixth Prince commit, and what crime did Yuan Hang commit? I hope the Emperor will make it clear, otherwise I’m afraid it will be hard to convince everyone.
” , to attack Yanguan, is this reason enough?” Zhao Heng held up the memorial and threw it at Dou Wei viciously.
Now he not only hates the sixth prince, but also hates Dou Wei and other powerful families.
If they didn’t have their own ghosts and smeared King Yan and Mo Di in the court, how could he have doubts in his heart.
Dou Wei’s face changed drastically when he heard the words, he hurriedly picked up the booklet and looked at it, it was exactly as Zhao Heng said.
Suddenly, his heart tightened.
Although each of the eight major factions has its own interests.
It is also against the royal family, but they have a common interest in resisting the Beidi people.
After all, if Beidi enters the customs, their good days will be over.
When the courtiers heard the words, they felt as if they were blown up. They came to Dou Wei one after another, competing to see the memorial.
“Sure enough, the Yuan family has turned against each other. King Yan and General Mo are right.” ”
How can this be good? Beidi enters the customs, how, this, how to resist.”
“It’s over, it’s over.”
“…” The
minister spread his hands , each face is bitter.
Zhao Heng saw that all the ministers were listless at this moment.
Thinking of how they scolded King Yan and Mo Di, he was even more annoyed. He pointed at the sixth prince and Yuan Hang and said, “Don’t drag them out. Also, all the officials in the court who have contacts with the Yuan family will be given to me.” Find out.” The
sixth prince had already collapsed on the ground.
He was rampant in the capital, relying on the Yuan family.
And his biggest backer actually rebelled.
“Father, my son is innocent, my son doesn’t know that the Yuan family is plotting a rebellion.” The soldiers of the imperial army came in front of them, and the sixth prince kept shouting.
Zhao Heng didn’t look at him at all, but just waved his hand.
The sixth prince looked at Zhao Qu at this moment, hugged his leg and begged, “Second brother, please beg for me, please beg for me…”
Zhao Qu’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. Together they questioned King Yan in court.
It was lucky that his father didn’t punish him, how dare he get involved with the sixth prince again.
Furthermore, the Yuan family rebelled, who would dare to have anything to do with it now.
He raised his foot to shake off the sixth prince like a fly, and said angrily: “I really misjudged you, I didn’t expect you to be such a person with ulterior motives.”
Seeing Zhao Qu’s indifferent face, the sixth prince’s heart fell into an ice cave.
In the past in the capital, he bullied the Ninth Prince Zhao Xu the most.
Now, he finally understands how despicable he will become if he loses his support.
