Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 180 Upside Down

In the court hall, the atmosphere suddenly became depressed, and a pair of eyes looked at Mujing with some surprise.

Last night there was a big fire on Zhengyang Street, the flames were so bright that it lit up half of the sky in Luoyang, and it involved countless mansions, and even more officials, which attracted the attention of the whole city.

However, the fact that the official office of the Yinjian was forcibly attacked by hundreds of men in black was not powerful enough to affect the whole city, and it was only a few hours before the court, but it did not spread. Unless someone has a heart, there are only a few people who know .

Now that it broke out, it immediately aroused public outrage.

"Is it true that the imperial government office was actually attacked by thieves?"

"I can't believe it!"

"Is there still a king's law in this world?"

"At the foot of the Son of Heaven, there is such a thing, who is so bold, he should kill his nine clans!"

"How could the law and order in Luoyang City be reduced to such a low level?"

"..."

All the officials are angry at this moment.

Above the imperial court, there are certain bottom lines that cannot be broken. Whether it is the gentry, the Qingliu, the clan, or the eunuchs, they all have a tacit understanding in their hearts. They can fight above the imperial court, but there is no blood in Luoyang City.

Luoyang is the capital of the great Han Dynasty, if even Luoyang City is not safe, how can the world be safe?

If you think about it, you will know that even the government offices in Luoyang City can be attacked. As the officials in charge of the court in today's world, they can't even guarantee this sense of security in their hearts, what power do they care about.

So at this moment, the government and the opposition are all fighting against each other

"Hehe, in Luoyang City, the official office of the imperial court was actually attacked by a group of unknown thieves?"

The emperor smiled brightly, and there was a deep coldness on that smiling face, even He Jin and Yuan Feng, the courtiers in charge of the imperial court, were a little shuddering at this moment.

The emperor who has been in charge of the court for twenty years, the explosive power of anger, I am afraid that no one present can bear it.

"It seems that some people don't take me seriously!"

The emperor said quietly.

"I dare not wait!"

All the ministers could feel the shuddering chill, and bowed their heads and knelt down one by one.

"Yuan Sikong, do you think my emperor has failed too much!" The emperor looked at Yuan Feng, the head of all officials, and spoke in a soft voice, but with a strong lethality.

"Your Majesty's attack strategy is comparable to that of Emperor Guangwu in the past, how can you say it is a failure!"

Yuan Feng bowed his head and said tremblingly.

"If I don't fail, how can there be such lawless people in Luoyang City? Last night, those lawless thieves attacked the Yinjian prison. Then tonight, shouldn't they attack my palace?" Son of Heaven His eyes were cold, like a sword like a knife, full of murderous intent.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

The ministers hurriedly persuaded and said.

"Yuan Sikong, I will leave this matter to you to investigate, and you will definitely give me an account, and the world!" the emperor said pointedly.

"Your Majesty, I immediately ordered that Luo Yang be thoroughly investigated, the culprit must be found out, and I will give Your Majesty an explanation!"

Yuan Feng's hands felt a little cold.

"Zhang Rang!"

"exist!"

"Pass down my will, Luoyang government office, from top to bottom, go all the way to the end, Ting Wei thoroughly investigate!" The emperor finally opened his bloody mouth, full of malice: "I don't want a Luoyang that can't even manage Luoyang." Yangfu Yamen, if they can’t do it, then someone else will do it!”

"As ordered!"

Zhang Rang took the order and drafted an order.

The ministers of the gentry dare not speak out, but the Luoyang government office is an important department for them. From Luoyang Lingdao, Luoyang Cheng, and even the head of the long history, they are all members of the gentry. Once they are taken down, the foundation of the gentry in Luoyang All three points less.

But they dare not choose the emperor at this time
"General, I heard that soldiers from the Northern Army inexplicably appeared in front of the camp gate of the West Garden last night. What do you want to do?" The emperor looked at He Jin, and his voice was cold.

"Your Majesty, please be aware that I'm just performing a military exercise with the Eighth Battalion of Xiyuan!"

He Jin said quickly.

"Playing soldiers?"

The emperor smiled lightly: "That's good, since that's the case, why don't I know?"

"Your Majesty, this is my fault!"

"Forget it, the general is kind enough to increase the fighting power of the world's soldiers and horses. If that's the case, then I will make the decision. On the eighteenth day of next month, Xiyuan and the Northern Army will perform martial arts, and the officials will supervise the performance. What does the general think?"

"I obey!" He Jin was dripping with cold sweat, he was a little confused why the Son of Heaven was lifted up high and then put down gently, but this test was passed.

"Wei Weiqing!" The emperor's eyes skipped once again, and fixed on Yang Biao: "I didn't know that you still have the power to seal the palace. The north and south palaces are sealed. I don't know yet, do you? I should give you this seat!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

Yang Biao hurriedly kowtowed, and cried loudly: "I am only worried about your Majesty's safety. The northern army and the West Garden two armies are performing martial arts. There may be mistakes, so I ordered the southern army to be on alert. Time is tight, so I can't ask your majesty for instructions. I know my mistake! "

"What kind of behavior do you think this is?"

The emperor asked calmly.

"Sealing the palace without asking the emperor's will is rebellion!"

"This man's intention of rebellion is already blatant, and he should kill the Nine Clans!"

A group of eunuchs' followers rose up and attacked him.

"To make a big deal out of a molehill, although Wei Weiqing has made mistakes in his work, he still cares about His Majesty's safety with all his heart!"

"You are the same party and the same party!"

Of course the gentry forces wanted to refute, and the whole court was in chaos.

"Aiqing, I trust you so much, let you take charge of the southern army and guard my bedroom, you let me down!" The emperor suppressed the voices of all the ministers, looked at Yang Biao, and said coldly.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty!" Yang Biao clenched his teeth and kowtowed.

"Yuan Sikong, do you think this is how you should deal with it?" The emperor focused his eyes on Yuan Feng.

Yuan Fengchang sighed, this is something that cannot be avoided: "Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is not Weiwei's fault. Your Majesty is in danger, so he ordered the two palaces to be closed, he originally wanted to enter the palace to face the saint, but the fire in the mansion caused most of Yuan Taiwei to be burnt, and almost lost his life, and now he is still sick in bed, I am willing to take the blame for him!"

Abandon the car to protect the handsome...

No, this is abandoning the prime minister.

The horse can still jump, but this phase can no longer walk.

"It turns out that the Taiwei is caring about me!" The emperor suddenly said, "I almost blame my good minister!"

"Your Majesty, the Taiwei was unable to go to work in court due to a fire injury, and he has written a letter to become an official. Please allow Your Majesty!" Yuan Feng handed over the letter.

"No!"

The emperor looked at the memorial and shook his head: "The Taiwei is the pillar of the imperial court. He needs to recover from his injuries. After he recovers from his injuries, he will continue to serve the imperial court!"

"Your Majesty, Yuan Taiwei is seriously injured, and I can't bear to waste his merits for personal reasons. When he is a Taiwei, assisting the general, and in charge of the world's military forces, how can he stand as a useless person? Please also think about the court and the world!"

Yuan Feng's voice was clear and firm.

"Hey!"

The Son of Heaven was finally moved by the spirit of the Yuan family, sighed, and said: "Yuan Taiwei has worked hard for the court for decades, I really can't bear it, Zhang Rang!"

"exist!"

"Issue an edict to promote Yuan Wei, the Taiwei, to be the Marquis of Guanyang, with a thousand households in the city!"

"promise!"

Zhang Rang drafted the decree, the emperor sealed it, and the court issued it immediately.

"Life is like a drama, drama is like life!"

Mu Jing's eyes never left for a moment, this big drama taught him quite a lot, obviously one by one made it hard for each other, but above the court, he was able to perform such a big drama of harmony between the monarch and his subjects.

Sure enough, no matter ancient or modern, the real actor is still in the political arena.

……

The beginning of the year ended with a court discussion, which ended with the desolation of the current Taiwei Yuan Kui. As for the candidate to succeed the Taiwei, the emperor did not say, and the family did not dare to mention it. Even eunuchs, no one dared to propose it. Now it is in the air. , In fact, it is just a transition, after all, the emperor also needs to give Yuan a little face.

However, the gentry suffered a serious loss this time, losing the position of a Taiwei, and the power in the Luoyang government office was also wiped out, and the loss of the rice was lost to the grandma's house.

It was already afternoon when the court was over.

Facing the mild afternoon sun, all the ministers and officials headed for the outside of Nangong.

Mu Jing also left following the footsteps of the officials, but just as he reached the palace gate, he was stopped by a little eunuch: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here to invite you!"

"Eunuch, please lead the way!"

Hearing this, Mu Jing hurriedly gave the little eunuch some money, just as a good relationship.

Under the leadership of this little eunuch, Mu Jing came to a palace.

This is the Jiaofangdian.

Jiaofangdian was first named from the main hall in the palace city of Chang’an. It was the emperor’s study and the place where the emperor read and reviewed the manuscripts. Later, Emperor Guangwu established the capital in Luoyang and established the North and South Palaces. inherited.

"Minister, Mu Jing, pay homage to His Majesty, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" Mu Jing bowed and entered.

"Mulongtu, do you know that you have ruined my big business!"

The Son of Heaven knelt down in front of the desk, his eyes were vivid, he looked at Mujing, his voice was faint and cold as ice.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand!" Mu Jing didn't dare to raise his head.

"You really thought that Luoyang City last night was an empty city!" The Son of Heaven said, "If I hadn't ordered the soldiers and horses in charge of Jinwu to stay still, the Southern Army to stay still, and Xiyuan to hold down the Northern Army, you thought it was just you Point people, they can stop their butcher knives!"

"His Majesty……"

Only then did Mu Jing raise his head slightly, his eyes were facing the emperor's deep eyes.

"I trust you, so I think you can keep the Yinjian prison, but I never imagined that you are so courageous, and set fire to the Sikong Mansion. This is something I dare not do. I should say You are bold, or you are lawless!"

"Your Majesty, I have no choice but to do my job well for Your Majesty, but they still can't tolerate my father and son, so I can't just be beaten and not fight back!" It's not good to be too cautious. He has to show a little bit of youthfulness, otherwise he will be too feared.

"But do you know that if you burn down Sikong Mansion, I will have one less reason!"

The emperor said calmly.

"reason?"

Mu Jing's pupils changed color, he understood that the Son of Heaven was planning to dismount even Yuan Feng, so he really did a stupid thing and gave Yuan Feng a chance to continue standing in court.

"Longtu, you are still too young!" the emperor said quietly.

"My minister is guilty!"

Mu Jing cupped his hands and said.
