Chapter 870
Yankang 15 years, January [-]th.

At this time, fifteen days have passed since Zhuge Liang presented the new Han law.

During these fifteen days, the Hall of Houde was surprisingly quiet, because on that day, the ministers gathered in the hall of servants, and all the officials knew what happened between Xun Linggong and Zhuge Liang. He thought that the emperor, who had always been strong, would definitely not be able to stand such opposition, and would definitely take action against Duke Xun Ling. Of course, the emperor must not be able to do anything to this old official, at most he would dismiss him.

Among this group of officials, the happier one is probably Sima Yi, who is now white. Sima Yi is very happy. As long as His Majesty takes away Xun Linggong's Shangshuling, who will be the most suitable person to be Shangshuling?Of course, he is still in Luoyang now, and as the emperor's confidant himself, Sima Yi knows in his heart that the emperor is becoming more and more powerful, and Xun Linggong's design like this may completely anger the emperor.

Even Xun Yu thought so.

Sitting in the Shangshutai, the attitude of the Shangshutai officials towards Xun Yu has also changed. Of course, they are not rude, but they are still a little distant. They dare not get too close to Xun Yu, for fear of being implicated. They But he didn't dare to offend the emperor, Xun Shen who stayed by Xun Yu's side had the most experience of these changes, he brought his father, and the two of them sat in the Shangshutai for a whole day, and no one dared to come up to say hello Two sentences.

If it was in the past, these people would have gathered around Father's side, asking about his health.

For the young and energetic Xun Shen, the actions of these people are undoubtedly a kind of betrayal of his father. Sitting in the study, looking at the memorials handed over by various governments, Xun Yu was very calm, one by one. After reading the article, he nodded in relief from time to time, stroked his beard and smiled, "Father!" Finally, Xun Shen couldn't help it anymore, and said angrily, "Let's go back."

Xun Yu shook his head, and then said: "Shen'er, don't blame them. They just want to save their lives. This is normal. I don't even have the confidence to survive it. It's normal for them to be afraid."

"Father? Will His Majesty really punish us severely?"

"Your Majesty is different from the past. He has been in power for more than ten years and has the same power. For a long time, no one dared to violate his edict. Now, with my design like this, he will definitely be furious. Of course, you don't have to be afraid. Your Majesty is Ming Jun, even if I am dismissed, I will never make things difficult for you, don't worry."

"Father, I have never been afraid. If my father is dismissed, I will go back together to take care of my father, and I will not take any more official positions. However, your majesty has not made trouble for so long. Why does my father think that your majesty will definitely give an order?" How about dismissing Father?" Xun Shen asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty is young and lonely, so he is sensitive and irritable, but he is patient and won't get angry easily. I think, soon, His Majesty will hold a court meeting. Although I have designed an addition to the Han Law, However, at the court meeting, His Majesty will definitely find a way to continue to implement land equalization. The next thing is the most important thing. This time, even if I risk my life, I will succeed. Regardless of success or failure, I am afraid that this Shangshu order The position will be changed," Xun Yu said with a smile.

"That's fine. When Father is done with his work, I will accompany Father home to study and play chess. It will be quite pleasant."

The father and son were talking, when an official came into the study, bowed to the two, lowered his head, and quickly said: "Your Majesty will call a court meeting tomorrow!" After finishing speaking, he did not wait for Xun Yu to reply. , fled and left the study, but Xun Shen didn't get angry any more, just turned his head away, looked at Xun Yu who was at the side, smiled, and said, "Father is really a man of God."

Xun Yu didn't say a word, but he was thinking about all the preparations he had made in the past few years. Tomorrow's court meeting will be the time when his game of chess will be settled.

the next day, early morning

Many ministers had already gathered in front of the palace, greeting each other, but none of them mentioned the recent political affairs. Everyone was tacit and understood why the emperor called a group of ministers this time, but no one dared to mention it. And, in this game between the emperor and Shang Shuling, even if they agree with Shang Shuling in their hearts, they dare not participate.

Shang Shuling is old and is a close friend of Emperor Xiaoxian. Even if he reprimanded the emperor face to face, at most he would be dismissed. The emperor dared not do anything to him, but they are different. They have no seniority or reputation of Shang Shuling. If you rashly follow him to oppose the emperor, you may end up in a dire situation. Therefore, they keep silent about the law, especially the land.

Everyone was chatting, and Zhong Changtong rushed over.

This is a stupid man, just got off the carriage, he walked towards the crowd happily, all the ministers looked at him with a little fear in their eyes, they dispersed one after another, Zhong Changtong looked at the crowd who walked away quickly, and felt a little bit in his heart Confused, when did I become so scary?He was thinking about it when he heard someone calling him not far away. It turned out to be the two brothers of the Cao family.

Zhong Changtong hurried up to meet the two of them. The two most incompatible members of the Cao family rarely stood together. Although Cao Chong and Zhong Changtong had conflicts before, he still admired Zhong Changtong's behavior. Cao Chong Like him, he is also a different type of ram, and he doesn't really admire the theory of destiny. Cao Chong has always been very contemptuous of ram's behavior of linking disasters with temples.

"Xiao Gong, why did you come so early today?"

"Hahaha, I want to come earlier so that I can talk about how to deal with His Majesty's accusations later..." Zhong Changtong said with a smile, the voice was not low, and the surrounding courtiers heard it and hurriedly avoided it. Cao Chong and Cao Zhi were not afraid. Cao Chong smiled and said: "I heard that Mr. Zhongchang is very courageous. I saw you today, and it is really so."

"Let's not talk about that, you are a champion in all four subjects, help me think about it quickly, how can I get His Majesty to agree to Xun Linggong's proposal, and how can I keep Xun Linggong?"

Zhong Changtong asked directly.

Cao Chong was stunned for a moment, then said with some hesitation: "I think, for these things, Mr. Xun Ling has already planned, we'd better not rush to act, so as not to spoil the important affairs of Mr. Xun Ling, if His Majesty wants to punish Shang Shuling , it is not too late for us to plead for mercy. However, it may be difficult to keep Shang Shuling."

They were chatting, and Zhuge Liang also arrived.

The officials treated him with much more respect, and surrounded him one after another, chatting enthusiastically, but Zhong Changtong never went there, looked at Zhuge Liang coldly, and said: "If it weren't for him, Duke Xun Ling would That’s not the case.” Cao Chong hastily interrupted him, “Mr. Zhong Chang, please don’t say such words. Lord Zhuge is not mediocre, but... well, it’s hard to say.”

The three of them waited for a long time before they finally arrived at Xun Yu. Although Xun Shangshu lost power, everyone still respected him and paid homage to him. However, no one dared to surround him anymore, only Zhong Changtong and the others came up. A few days ago, after greeting Duke Xun Ling, Lu Bu was indeed the last to arrive. The oldest one, he still didn't seem to have changed at all, and he even felt ten years younger than Xun Yu.

Everyone just waited for a while, and then the gate of the palace opened, and Duke Xun Ling led the officials and walked slowly towards the main hall.

Zhong Changtong and the others walked behind San Ling. Just now, Xun Linggong was very calm. He felt that he had already had a countermeasure. It seemed that they didn't have to panic too much. Ling Gongding had already planned.

When everyone entered the hall, they found that the emperor had already sat on the top seat, waiting for everyone. Shocked, he hurriedly prostrated to see the emperor, but did not dare to take his seat. Liu Xi sat on the upper seat, looked at the frightened officials below, smiled, and said, "Your lords, take your seat."

Only then did the ministers sit in their seats one by one, with their heads down completely, still thinking about the emperor's intentions in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, there has never been a precedent for the emperor to wait for the officials in the court meeting of the great man. The courtesy of the emperor and his ministers cannot be abolished. Your Majesty should not do this in the future." Just when everyone sat down, Xun Yu had already spoken. Hearing Xun Yu's words, the temple was silent, and everyone even held their breath. Are they going to attack the emperor so soon? ? ?
Liu Xi squinted his eyes, looked at Xun Yu below, nodded his head, and said, "I see."

The atmosphere was a little tense for a while, and no one dared to speak. Liu Xi just looked at the officials below, and then said: "The officials must also know about the law. In the past, I thought that the Han law was not perfect, I can't adapt to today, so I ordered the servants to lead people to compile a new law, until today, the law is finally completed, gentlemen, you can take a look."

As Liu Xi said, several small yellow doors walked out around him, and put many printed documents in front of the officials.

"These are all relevant parts of the law, please take a look first."

Everyone picked up the documents one after another. However, there was only a small part of the Han law in front of them, and everyone got it differently. What Zhong Changtong got was the order of the tax law, and what Xun Yu had in front of him was The law of the land, Xun Yu looked at the document in his hand, thinking about the emperor's intention, Liu Xi was not in a hurry, watching the people seriously looking at the document in his hand, without urging.

After a long time, seeing that everyone had almost finished reading it, Liu Xi said: "This law contains many things, but the most important thing is the law of the land. The future lords can see," he said, and looked aside again, the Yellow Gate came out again, and put the document in front of everyone again, obviously, this time it was the law of the land.

Xun Yu squinted his eyes. No wonder he singled out a part for the officials to watch. Is this to raise the land law from the Han law and then reject it?No, it seems that the old man is going to advance the deployment, he slowly looked at Zhong Changtong in the distance, and was ready to stand up and refute.

And everyone looked at the law of the land in their hands, and they were also thinking in their hearts, is this the emperor wanting us to protest?
Liu Xi looked at the officials below, and then at the aged Xun Yu.

"Dong Zhao and others said that the Taizu should enter the Duke of Jue, Jiuxi to prepare things, to honor the honor, and secret to consult Yu, Yu thought that the Taizu was originally a righteous soldier in order to bring peace to the country. This should not be the case. The Taizu couldn't do it. In Ping, Sun Quan will be recruited, and the army will reach Ruxu, and Yu Ji will stay in Shouchun to worry about his death, and he will be fifty years old."

"Yi Worrying, I was fifty years old."

Liu Xi's complexion was cloudy and uncertain, and everyone couldn't tell what the emperor was thinking about, but the emperor looked at the aged Shang Shuling and said slowly:
"I think that Xun Linggong's strategy is feasible."

　Well, the old wolf was wrong, the title of Werewolf Killer can only be claimed in activities.

　　If you have a book lover who likes "Harry Potter", I strongly recommend Tangtang's "Harry Potter: Invincible", a god-level work of a goddess, it is absolutely beautiful,
