Good luck and marriage: marrying the governor of Dongchang

Chapter 252 Lu Huaiqi's So-Called "Coolness and Cruelty"

The entire Golden Luan Hall was completely silent.

But the hearts of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were as shocked as thunder and lightning, and the stormy waves crashed on the shore.

Seeing their stunned expressions, the little emperor felt a burst of complacency in his heart.While he was satisfied, he was also a little angry.

He smiled coldly and ironically, and said in a cold voice, "Looking at the expressions of all the lovers, I know that you are very surprised, and think this is simply unbelievable. I also tell you that the same is true for Gu. I have been doing my best to help Gu, and Gu has always seen his contribution to Xiliang, and Gu respects him very much. Only this time," he paused, with a sad and angry expression on his face, " Gu really didn't expect that because of his own personal grievances, he led my Xiliang soldiers into the Northern Qi army so impulsively, causing our army to be annihilated by the Northern Qi army without any preparation and no chance of winning , and caused our army to be defeated even more since then, losing several cities in a row."

The little emperor's condemnation of Lu Huaiqi can be said to be "from the bottom of his heart", full of true feelings.

It seemed that he was really disappointed in Lu Huaiqi.

But in this court, who knows that the one who hates Lu Huaiqi the most is the little emperor, and his hypocrisy is really fake.

The little emperor also hoped that they would believe that he was acting like this out of sincerity. He had only one purpose, which was to let them know that Lu Huaiqi was actually the culprit behind the defeat of the Xiliang army.

He continued to stir up the emotions of the courtiers, "Everyone loves you, before I was enthroned, I heard something that Lu Huaiqi was originally from the Northern Qi Dynasty, and his status was also honorable. The imperial palace identified Lu Huaiqi as the eldest prince who had been missing for many years in Beiqi. All Aiqing remembered this matter, and Gu remembered it very clearly at the time. Later, Lu Huaiqi, a sinister villain, used deceitful means to confuse this matter. The late emperor dispelled his doubts about him. But now it seems that it is not a lie at all, he is clearly the prince of Northern Qi."

The officials below listened to his indignant and generous speech, they were silent and did not dare to intervene at this moment to make any remarks.

They didn't have much affection for Lu Huaiqi at first, but now that the little emperor made it clear that he wanted to discredit him, they had no choice but to watch and let him go.

They are not Lu Huaiqi's subordinates, and it is not up to them to take the lead in rectifying Lu Huai's name.

Fu Lingsheng's eyes were a little sad, Lu Huaiqi was considered a person who had made a lot of contributions to Xiliang, now that he is dead, guard against the little emperor's wanton slander and ruin his reputation.

He was a little ashamed at this moment, it was in vain for him to claim to be upright and not to join forces with those corrupt officials, but at this moment he chose to remain silent just like them.

This imperial court is a big dye vat, and there are not many people who really get out of the mud without dyeing it.

Cai Yunfei who was executed was considered a real man.

The little emperor continued to lament the crimes committed by Lu Huai, "As the eldest prince of Northern Qi, his mother clan has a hatred for the monarch of Northern Qi. We must not tolerate him venting this kind of personal grievance on the battlefield, and taking the lives of so many innocent soldiers in Xiliang! Lu Huai said that this person is too headstrong and reckless. What will his actions do to our national destiny in Xiliang? Where are the people of Xiliang, such a person who has wronged the country, how can I let him rest in peace with my title of [-] years old in Xiliang!"

Hearing what the little emperor said, the courtiers in the palace could probably guess what he said next.

Sure enough, the little emperor gave an order, "Come here, pass on Gu's order. From now on, all official titles and titles of Lu Huaiqi will be abolished. Lu Huaiqi's crimes must be copied and beheaded to dispel Gu's hatred!"

After the edict, all the courtiers raised their heads in astonishment, seeing what the little emperor meant, that he wanted to behead all the members of the Lu family for public display! ?
It was difficult for them to accept for a while, how could someone like Lu Huaiqi fall from power like this.

Among the courtiers, Lu Huaiqi's henchmen were filled with anger. They clenched their fists fiercely. The news of Nine Thousand Years' death had only been heard for two days, but the little emperor could not wait to kill Nine Thousand Years old. Everyone has been dealt with, Jiu Qiansui did so many things for the country of Xiliang during his lifetime, where was the arrogant little emperor at that time? It's really disgusting that the little emperor started to eradicate dissidents before his bones were cold.

But they also know that they must not be impulsive at this time, otherwise they will end up like Cai Yunfei.

Died in vain.But it doesn't work.

The little emperor raised his head and looked at the civil and military officials below. Naturally, he did not miss the expressions of those Lu Huaiqi's henchmen, but he was even more proud. Those people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. He was really relieved to see them.

He suddenly thought of an idea, his eyes were cold and vicious, and he ordered loudly, "Meng Xuan, why don't you lead the troops to surround the Lu residence, and bring all the family members of Lu Huaiqi out and put them in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

The expressions of the ministers suddenly became subtle. This Meng Xuan is the commander of the Yulin Army, and this person is Lu Huaiqi's subordinate. The little emperor's move should not be accidental, but intentional.

They all looked at Meng Xuan one after another. There was a trace of struggle and hesitation on Meng Xuan's resolute face. No matter what he said, he was working under Jiu Qiansui. Although Jiu Qiansui is dead now, but he was alive It's not bad for him, and he also supports him a lot. It can be said that he is the benefactor of his master, but at this moment, the little emperor is asking him to lead troops to encircle and suppress Lu's residence.How could he do such a disregard of morality?

After hesitating again and again, he stood up, lowered his head and said firmly, "Go back to the emperor, my humble minister..."

He really didn't know what to say.

How could the little emperor not know, he looked at Meng Xuan with a cold smile, "Why, it seems that Commander Meng is in a difficult situation, and since that is the case, Gu is not an unkind person," he looked at Meng Xuan in surprise With a smile on his face, Mengxuan was a mindless idiot, he seemed to point at someone casually, "It's you, on behalf of Mengxuan, go and surround the Lu residence, and escort all the people inside."

The person he pointed at was none other than He Minxin, the Minister of War.

He Minxin felt a little joy in his heart, he stood up and replied respectfully, "This humble minister takes the order, and I will definitely live up to the holy hope."

Above the main hall, a strange atmosphere spread.

Everyone looked at He Minxin, and then at the little emperor on the dragon chair. They all understood that the little emperor's finger just now was by no means accidental. This He Minxin might have secretly expressed his loyalty to the little emperor before.

And looking at the current situation, the little emperor probably agreed, and took this He Minxin for his own use.

Fu Lingsheng glanced at He Minxin, and happened to meet He Minxin's villainous look, that triumphant look made Fu Lingsheng turn his face away angrily, and he despised this villain who was ruthless in his heart.

As he remembered correctly, when Lu Huaiqi was still in great glory, this villain also rushed to curry favor with him. In his heart, Lu Huaiqi had just died, so he immediately changed his partner.

What a good dog that meat buns will stick to wherever they point!
He Minxin doesn't care what other people think, as long as he steps on the ladder, he doesn't care what others say.

After the court was over, the ministers walked out of the hall one after another.

He Minxin saw Meng Xuan walking in front of him, he walked quickly behind him, and then sighed, "Oh, Commander Meng is really a fool, he doesn't know how to grasp such a beautiful job in front of him, but it's in vain It's really a pity for you to give up to me!"

Such a self-satisfied villain declared that he didn't want to look at him, and said without turning his head, "It's your business that Mr. He likes such an errand, why bother to tell me. I have something important to do, so I will leave first. "

After finishing speaking, he left on his own, without looking at He Minxin's expression at all.
He Minxin curled her lips, how did such a stunned young man survive in this complicated officialdom? It was also thanks to Lu Huaiqi who cherished him a little bit, otherwise Mengxuan would not have known how to die. In whose hands.

Meng Xuan did have something important to do. When he went out this morning, his mother and wife said that they would have a birthday banquet for Jun'er tonight, and told him to come back early after the court.

Jun'er is his four-year-old son. He is smart and cute. He is his only son. He and his family love this little guy very much.

Thinking of his lovely son, a warm smile appeared on his face, and the depression and gloom in the court just now eased a little.

But he will soon stop laughing, and this smile of his is the last in his life.

On his way back home, he noticed that the streets today are less crowded than in the past. Usually, the market should be very lively at this time, but now there are not many people on the street, and the stalls on the side of the road are also messy. He felt something was wrong.

After walking a little further, his eyes froze for a moment, and he saw a red mark that looked like blood on the side of the road.

Going forward, he found that it was undoubtedly the blood that hadn't dried up.

With his hand clasped on the handle of the knife at his waist, he held his breath and continued to walk forward.

His footsteps stopped suddenly, and he saw a group of men in black standing in the middle of the road, and the swords in their hands were dripping with fresh blood.

He was taken aback, his face suddenly changed, under such a bright and bright world, there are really people who dare to openly commit murder on the street.

Without hesitation, he drew his sword and rushed towards the group of men in black, angrily shouting, "Who dares to commit crimes here, report their names!"

The group of men in black turned around when they heard his voice, without panicking at all.

Such composure gave Meng Xuan an illusion, as if these people were waiting for him here.

Soon, he knew that this was not his illusion.
