Invincible son

Chapter 168 167 [The Five Great Sins]

Pei Yue originally planned to return to his position at the back. Now that the title was secured, the rest of the matter naturally had nothing to do with him, and he did not want to continue to stand in this eye-catching place and become the object of attention of civil and military officials.

However, that black-faced nobleman suddenly jumped out and faintly blocked his way back.

Pei Yue had no choice but to stand where he was.

Emperor Kaiping's face was not very good-looking, just now Liu Zhen's words brought back memories he didn't want to touch.

14 years ago, Renzong was terminally ill and had no heirs. At that time, the situation in Kyoto was in dire straits, and it might collapse at any time.

If Renzong dies, the Chen family will inevitably become the most unstable factor in the capital, even more dangerous than those nobles.With Zhongzong's acquiescence in his later years and Renzong's strong support after he ascended the throne, the Chen family is no longer a simple merchant family, as can be seen from the guards around Chen Qingchen.

He still remembers how amazing and talented that woman named Chen Qingchen was. After Wang Pingzhang asked him for instructions, a surprise attack on the Chen family was launched in the dark.

That night in the capital fire, the Chen family mansion was completely burned down.

Chen Qingchen died under the left-handed sword of a top expert, and most of the members of the Chen clan also lost their lives. Even if some escaped, it did not interfere with the overall situation.

This incident almost affected Emperor Kaiping's successful succession to the throne. After all, it was too cruel and violent to destroy a big family in open fire in Kyoto.If Pei Zhen hadn't changed her previous silence at the most critical moment, and Mo Haoli's support, Wang Pingzhang alone might not be able to help him ascend to the throne of God.

After all, apart from him, Emperor Zhongzong had several sons at that time.

Of course, more than ten years have passed, and all the brothers of Emperor Kaiping have died of illness.

In any case, the Chen family, especially the name Chen Qingchen, had already become Emperor Kaiping's nemesis. Even Wang Pingzhang dared not mention it in front of him these years.Liu Zhen's impassioned remarks today vaguely pointed to the case of the Chen family extermination 14 years ago, which was enough to stir up the real fire in Emperor Kaiping's heart, so at this moment that black-faced nobleman jumped out, his voice was much darker than before: " What are you impeaching him for?"

This person had a dark complexion and a pig-like face, as if he didn't hear the anger in Emperor Kaiping's words, he scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that I want to impeach him."

Standing in the second place from the right, Cheng Anhou Lu Min reprimanded: "Cui Hu, what is this place, put away your crazy tricks!"

Pei Yue didn't look back. Fortunately, he now has a better understanding of the honorary system, and knows that this Cui Hujue has been granted the title of Xining Bo, and that his son has a good relationship with Li Zijun.During the conflict outside Luliu Village, Pei Yue once inserted a dagger into Cui Hu's son's arm.

Cui Hu shook his head vigorously and said: "You Junji, I'm not pretending to be crazy. Someone did impeach Pei Yue, but he couldn't go to court, so he specially asked me to present the memorial to His Majesty."

Lu Min didn't continue to reprimand him, and asked "Oh" again: "Whose memorial?"

Hearing them sing together, Pei Yue immediately realized the problem. It was obvious that Lu Min was cooperating with this uncle Xining.As for who wrote the memorial, it is not difficult for Pei Yue to guess, who else but Pei Rong?Thinking about it further, the reason why Lu Min was willing to make a move is also very simple.He can compete with Wang Pingzhang. Apart from his own ability, the support of the founding prince's mansion is very important. Under such a major premise, he certainly does not want Pei Rong to fall completely.

A Patriarch of the Dingguo Mansion with a shallow city and weak abilities is the best candidate for Lu Min.

If Pei Rong is very strong, how could it be his turn to lead half of the nobles in this circle?

Sure enough, Cui Hu said loudly: "This memorial was written by Pei Rong of the Dingguo Mansion to impeach his concubine Pei Yue!"

The ministers were in an uproar.

This is an extremely rare father and son, and it is on such a grand occasion today, which means that there is no father-son relationship if the face is torn apart.

As Cui Hu's voice fell to the ground, the atmosphere in the main hall became distinct.

The officials on both sides of Pei Yue are all important officials in the court, and they know the details of Pei Rong very well, and some people even vaguely know the story that happened in Dingguo Mansion.These people looked at Pei Yue with complicated eyes, some were puzzled why father and son were fighting each other, some regretted that the country would lose a piece of young and promising jade.

Telling a son from his father, in this world where loyalty and filial piety are paramount, it is enough to ruin his life for a son.

Behind the main hall, the lower-ranking officials lacked sufficient sources of information and were simply influenced by this memorial, so they looked at Pei Yue unkindly.Especially the censors who had just been deflated, several of them were ready to move, wishing to stand up and step on this unfilial boy.If Liu Zhen hadn't learned from the past, perhaps they would have swarmed up and drowned Pei Yue in sharp words like a knife.

Among the countless complicated gazes, only Gu Liang looked gloomy and wanted to step forward to refute Cui Hu's words.

Pei Yue seemed to have thought of this scene a long time ago. He was facing the emperor on the dragon chair at the moment, so he didn't turn his head, but shook his head slightly.

Gu Liang noticed his movement and stopped forcibly.

Emperor Kaiping said indifferently: "Submit it."

An inner eunuch walked down the steps, came to Cui Hu and took the memorial, then held it carefully and handed it to Emperor Kaiping.

Emperor Kaiping opened it and quickly confirmed that the memorial was not written by Pei Rong, but was copied by him at most.He would definitely not do this kind of thing by others, it was probably written by his youngest son.Although Emperor Kaiping paid little attention to Pei Yun, he also knew that this son was highly valued by Mo Moyun. He had been obsessed with books for many years, which was completely different from ordinary noble children.

This memorial was written very well. After reading it, Emperor Kaiping was a little puzzled. How could this idiot Pei Rong raise several good sons?

The king on the dragon chair was lost in thought, and the ministers in the main hall were a little apprehensive.

Especially Cui Hu, who helped Pei Rong present the memorial, looked up boldly, and found that Kaiping Emperor's face was indifferent, without any expression of anger.

After a while, Emperor Kaiping looked at Pei Yue below, and said slowly: "Your father's memorial lists your five major crimes, can you be convicted?"

When the emperor asked this sentence, ordinary officials could only kneel down and bow their heads to plead guilty.

Pei Yue recalled what Gu Liang had said to him before the court meeting, and said unexpectedly: "Your Majesty, I don't know what crime I have committed."

Emperor Kaiping didn't blame him, he just handed the memorial to the inner eunuch, and said: "Read."

As the inner eunuch's slender voice echoed in the main hall, many people's expressions became brighter.

In the memorial, Pei Rong accused Pei Yue of the following charges: disrespecting his biological father and repeatedly contradicting him; disrespecting his aunt and harsh words; misconduct and greed;

Throughout Daliang's century-old history, there are many people who dared to exterminate their relatives righteously and inform the government of their children's wrongdoings. However, no one has ever been so heartless and ruthless towards their sons like Pei Rong.This memorial almost criticized Pei Yue from head to toe. If what he said was true, not to mention the Viscount Zhongshan, Pei Yue was lucky to walk out of Chengtian Palace alive.

Such an unfaithful and unfilial person, how can the anger of the public be appeased if he is not killed?
The most important thing is the last charge in Pei Rong's memorial, which indicates that Pei Yue colluded with bandits, which made some ministers start to think about it.

Many people were already jealous that Pei Yue had a title at such a young age, but now they suddenly realized after hearing Pei Rong's complaint, maybe this Pei Yue is a bandit's pawn, let him make a contribution to become an upstart in the court, and create earth-shattering events in the future disaster.

These thieves have such vicious thoughts and long-term plans!
