Chapter 250

252 Killing Chickens and Monkeys

In the early morning, the sunlight poured in through the panes, and the marble floor of the dormitory reflected a gleam of light.

When the eunuch waiting for the wash came in from the outside, he saw the little emperor sitting on the edge of the bed, half of his face was illuminated by the sun, and the other half of his face was hidden in the shadow, so he couldn't see clearly.

The little eunuch who served yesterday has disappeared from here. I don’t know what punishment was imposed. These new eunuchs are a little nervous. This young monarch seems to be not as talkative as they imagined. If one is not careful, he may be annoyed and lose his head.

A young eunuch with delicate features knelt down and raised the dragon robe in his hand, "Your Majesty, this is a new dragon robe sent by the Shangyi Bureau."

The little emperor raised his head and took a look. He stood up and asked the little eunuch to help him put on the dragon robe. He looked at the lifelike dragon head embroidered on his chest with bright eyes, and the golden dragon's head was outlined by the gold thread. The majestic appearance, shimmering with golden light under the morning light, seems to come out of the clouds at any time, soaring wantonly between the sky and the earth.

An indescribable excitement suddenly rose in the little emperor's chest. He trembled his eyelashes, closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, and opened them again.There was a gloomy light in his eyes.

The little eunuch next to him carefully put on the crown of golden silk wings for him. The little emperor took a look at the little eunuch and felt that his hands and feet were quite nimble, "What's his name?"

The little eunuch lowered his head, and did not panic because of the emperor's sudden question, "If you return to the emperor, the slave will be in the spring."

The little emperor didn't care about his name at all, but he just asked casually, and he nodded casually, "Okay, from now on, you will serve Gu alone."

The little eunuch Ming Chun knelt down, showing a little bit of just-right joy, "My servant, thank the emperor for his love."

After leaving the bedroom, the little emperor put his hands behind his back and watched the rising sun rise above the palace. He squinted his eyes. Today's sunshine is very good, and this weather is most suitable for killing people.

With a slight smile, it's time to go up now.

At the Golden Luan Hall, the courtiers had already arrived, and they had accepted the unbelievable news two days ago, and what was before them now was how the imperial court would change in the future.

When I felt uneasy in my heart, I heard the sound of the little emperor entering the hall from above the hall.

They put away the different expressions on their faces, raised their faces, bowed to the little emperor, and shouted long live in unison.

The ups and downs of "Long live my emperor, long live, long live" resounded throughout the majestic and splendid hall. The little emperor looked at the courtiers kneeling on the ground below. There was no wave on the young man's face, but his eyes were The dark tide is surging and surging.

The kneeling courtiers secretly wondered in their hearts, they had been kneeling for a while, and they never saw the little emperor calling them up.

Could it be that as soon as Lu Huaiqi died, the little emperor became arrogant, and after that day, he was going to demonstrate to them on the first day of going to court.

The eyes of He Minxin, the servant of the Ministry of War, flashed brightly. Sure enough, the little emperor wanted to start taking power.

Once Lu Huaiqi died, no one in the entire Xiliang court was more qualified to be in power than him. He was the emperor on the dragon chair, the nominal master of Xiliang Jiangshan.

No, maybe it was only in name before, but not necessarily now.

Without Lu Huaiqi's stone in the way, who else in the world can block the path of the little emperor.

He was right this time, and the little emperor was the Ming lord he should turn to next.

Looking at those senior officials with higher rank than him around him, he secretly sneered.

One day, when the little emperor is firmly established in the world, he will surely follow suit. At that time, he will trample all those who have despised him under his feet.

The young minister of Taichang Temple Cai Yunfei's face darkened. The news of Nine Thousand Years' death had not been sent to the capital for a long time, and the little emperor didn't ask anyone to verify it. life and death.

He frowned, and quietly raised his head to look at the little emperor in high position, feeling uncomfortable.

The little emperor caught his gaze keenly, he smiled coldly, and looked at him with his chin raised.

I was still looking for someone, but now it seems that it is you.

Luo Nan and the others mentioned this Cai Yunfei to themselves yesterday, saying that this person is a member of Lu Huaiqi's party.

Although Lu Huaiqi doesn't dislike civil servants, this Cai Yunfei is an exception, because this person is not different from those sour literati who only know how to have fun in the wind, flowers, snow and moon. Know how to sympathize with the sufferings of the people, and pay more attention to the livelihood of the people.

Lu Huaiqi also regarded this person highly, and he could be said to be one of his capable officials.

The little emperor stared at Cai Yunfei, the cold light in his eyes shot out like an arrow, and today he will take you under the knife.

Walking to the front of the dragon chair, he said loudly to the officials, "Everyone loves you."

The officials below finally breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up from the ground, their knees were still a little numb, but they didn't dare to show it.

The little emperor sat on the dragon chair with his back straight. He looked at Cai Yunfei with a trace of oppression on his face, "Cai Qing's family, just now I saw that you looked at Gu and seemed to have something to do. Why don't you come and listen?" .”

Cai Yunfei raised his head suddenly, startled in his heart.

The little emperor noticed him just now, so what is his intention now.

He stood up, "Go back to the emperor, I do have something important to announce."

The little emperor raised his eyebrows, he wanted to hear what Cai Yunfei could do.

As far as he knew, apart from the incident caused by Lu Huai, there were no major events in Xiliang in the past few days.

"My minister implores the emperor to send troops to the border to search for the whereabouts of Jiu Qiansui."

After hearing these words, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty all raised their heads and looked at Cai Yunfei in shock.

Regardless of whether Lu Huaiqi's death was true or not, after these two days, they all chose to believe it. Lu Huaiqi had been calling the shots in the court hall in Xiliang for so long, and they also felt that it was time. It's time for Lu Huaiqi to quit. This is something that almost everyone has tacitly understood, and it is also what the little emperor wants to see.

But right now, Cai Yunfei is here in the Golden Luan Hall, openly bringing this matter up again in front of the little emperor, in front of all of them.

Does he not want to die?

The little emperor's face suddenly became gloomy. He looked at Cai Yunfei in silence for a long time before he said, "Cai Qing's family is really loyal to Lu Huaiqi, but I don't know, in Cai Qing's family's heart, who is the monarch of Xiliang?" Is it Gu or Lu Huaiqi!"

The little emperor's voice was not too loud, but it made all the courtiers in the palace feel turbulent.

They did not expect that the little emperor would raise this sensitive issue so directly at this moment.

If it was in the past, they might have dismissed it and laughed it off, thinking it was just a momentary impatience of the little emperor.

But now it was completely different. After Lu Huaiqi died, everyone was unavoidably panicked, and their attitude towards the little emperor also changed completely.

They never dared to offend the little emperor easily now, so under the angry questioning of the little emperor, they all knelt down and shouted in unison, "The emperor calm down—"

Seeing this group of duplicity courtiers, the little emperor frowned, and sneered, "Calm down!? How did you make Gu calm down, Cai Yunfei, you answered Gu's question, Gu is very curious about your thoughts !"

The little emperor's angry voice chilled Cai Yunfei, he lowered his head, "I don't dare, the emperor is the ninety-five supreme, so naturally you are the king of Xiliang, the sky of Xiliang."

He understood in his heart that the little emperor wanted to use him to start punishing their [-]-year-old followers.

The little emperor shook his head and smiled angrily, "Why did the Cai Qing family deceive Yugu with their duplicity? You don't know that you have already colluded with that Lu Huaiqi to form a party for personal gain!"

Cai Yunfei knew in his heart that he might not be able to get out of this court today. Nine thousand years old is now dead, but this little emperor has already begun to eradicate dissidents. He is a little mocking in his heart. If the country of Xiliang really falls to this little emperor In the hands, the future is really unknown.Although Jiuqiantui's methods are cruel, at least he attaches great importance to the country and the country and cares about the suffering of the people.

He raised his head, looked directly at the little emperor, and replied neither humble nor overbearing, "Returning to the emperor, although I have contacts with Jiuqiantui, the things I talk about are only for the benefit of the people and the sake of the community. A person of high integrity is also an upright official, and has never done anything like forming a party for personal gain, and I hope the emperor will learn from him."

He Minxin raised his head and glanced at him, and sneered from the bottom of his heart, what a ignorant stupefied young man, dare to challenge the little emperor openly, he really wants to die!

An old official with a gray beard in front looked back at Cai Yunfei, with no expression on his face, but there was a hint of approval in his eyes. This person was the Minister of Loss, Fu Lingsheng.

He sighed in his heart, in this filthy imperial court, it is rare to see such an upright and outspoken official like Cai Yunfei, but unfortunately, this person is afraid that he will be punished by the little emperor soon.

What a pity!He shook his head secretly.

Hearing Cai Yunfei's words just now, the little emperor was already furious, and looking at Cai Yunfei's eyes seemed to be able to spew fire.

He laughed twice, his eyes darkened, "Okay, okay, okay!" After saying the word "yes" three times, his face completely sank, "Cai Yunfei, Cai Yunfei, you are really loyal to Lu Huai Second, since you dare to confess to Gu in front of all civil and military officials, that you and Lu Huai have a close personal relationship and colluded secretly, then don't blame Gu for punishing you as a clique!" After finishing speaking, he turned to the outside of the hall. He yelled, "Come here, take down this criminal Cai Yunfei and execute him by beheading in half!"
