Chapter 17 Please retire(1/2)

"Our army is not involved in local affairs, but if the bandits are in such a serious state, the garrison should obey the government's dispatch."

Qin Tangong's voice continued to sound in the hall, gentle and slow.

"Catching the bandits as soon as possible can also give an explanation to the victim's family and the people."

There was a silence in the hall. It is logical that if Qin Tan Gong spoke, Song and Yuan yelled loudly, but Song and Yuan dynasties were not here today.

Chen Sheng looked at Qin Tangong coldly and said, "These people killed by bandits happened to be the ones who were in Zhanggongling ten years ago found by Mr. Qingxia. They were going to come to Beijing to wait for inquiries. Mr. Qin, are these bandits very good at picking people?"

Qin Tan Gong still looked the same and said, "The late emperor was kind and kind. After his death, these serving people were not held accountable, nor were they buried with them. They were still high-ranking officials and generous salaries." Looking at Chen Sheng, "I remember that the prime minister rewarded many people after that. Perhaps the house was too generous and attracted the attention of the bandits."

Duke Qin Tan rarely tells jokes, so his words at this time were like jokes, but they only made people feel cold on their backs.

What was Chen Sheng going to say? Wang Lieyang, who had been silent, spoke first.

"Mr. Qin, please retreat to the court for the time being to avoid suspicion."

This is the power to be cut off! There is a little turmoil in the hall. Although there is no Song and Yuan Dynasty, many officials left the list and spoke.

"Zhao Ye Wang, what do you mean?"

"Is this saying that Mr. Qin is the murderer?"

"It's outrageous."

There was a sudden noise in the hall, and someone stood up again: "Gao Liangli! Zhang Youheng! You and others are bold in vain and chaotic ceremony, and the hall is noisy!"

The voice is loud and the spirit is deafening, and only the Censor-in-Chief is the only one who can be seen.

As the Luyan stood up, the censors in the court also came out to scold him. Perhaps because the atmosphere in the hall was tense, hundreds of Jinwu Guards on both sides held the copper hammers in their hands. As long as the ministers guarded the guards, all officials would beat and kill them.

"First, there was a suspected case of Lin Yue's death, and then there was a lawsuit for Liang Feng to hang him. The noise was still undecided, and the person involved was killed. What's wrong with Mr. Qin avoiding suspicion and resigning from the court?"

"When impeachment occurs, officials will have the practice of not leaving the house, no longer attending court, and defending their innocence. All civil and military officials are like this. What's the special thing about the ministers who are in charge of their lives?"

Chen Sheng's voice sounded heavily in the hall.

"The Confucian scholar died suddenly, and the internal officials committed suicide. It involved a major case of the late emperor. How dare you make noise? How can you be called a loyal minister and a filial son? How can you be worthy of heaven and earth? What is the use of the court supporting you!"

Wang Lieyang sighed and said, "Yes, if this case is not investigated, the world will be injustice. Mr. Qin please leave the court temporarily and defend himself in a closed door."

Five ministers were appointed, one of whom had resigned from office and left the court without considering it. Three agreed to impeachment against one and asked him to leave the court, which was unprecedentedly strict.

"My saints and disciples, who are loyal and filial, dare not ask about the suspect of regicide. Please ask Duke Tan of Qin to defend himself."

Officials stood up one after another, either solemn, excited or grief-inspired, and there were loud calls in the hall to close the door.

The little emperor sitting on the dragon throne stared wide, and the eunuch beside him shook his head and silenced.

.....

.....

"You are bold! You dare to stop the Ai family!"

In the harem, Empress Qin, who was stopped in front of the palace gate, shouted in shame and anger.

There were thousands of people in the fifth level of imperial guards in the imperial city, and the inner palace was under the Imperial City Division. At this time, an eunuch had a smile on his face and a respectful manner, but his attitude was unquestionable.

"Empress, the emperor and the prime minister are discussing matters. Please do not disturb the empress in the palace." He said, and the guards holding weapons behind him all stepped forward.

Empress Dowager Qin was not afraid, and only had anger to maintain her face like a girl: "Li Gouzi, when is it your turn to speak in this harem?"

The eunuch was still respectful and his body was even more bent, and he said, "The Empress is the old slave. Where is the turn of the old slave in the harem? The old slave is just following the order of the emperor."

"What a fortune! It's clear that Chen Sheng is immortal..."

Empress Dowager Qin's delicate voice was harsh and angrily.

Angry curses could penetrate the guards, but people could not, so the eunuch did not act any more and just guarded the palace gate, allowing Empress Dowager Qin to curse.

"...When Zong Zhou Liao Cheng was here, you, Li Gouzi, are you? Don't think that the Ai family doesn't know whose meal you are eating."

"...Wang Lieyang and Chen Sheng, you are so proud that you bully our orphans and widows..."

......

......

The scolding in the harem did not penetrate the hall of the previous dynasty. Even if it penetrated, the voice of the Empress Dowager and the female streamer could not match the court officials in the hall. There were various voices mixed in the hall. In addition to asking Duke Qin Tan to retreat to the court to defend himself, there were also many people who defended Duke Qin Tan.

The ministers in the hall were quarreling and even began to push. The four ministers in front of him who caused this chaos were silent. Wang Lieyang's face was calm, Chen Sheng's face was dark, and the neighbors stared at the hall with dark faces. Qin Tan Gong's expression remained the same. This silence did not make people feel relaxed. The eunuch standing beside the emperor was sweating soaked on his back.

This is obviously prepared for a long time. It would be better if Duke Qin Tan was not in the palace. It would be difficult for him to take over with him with many guards, but it would be easier to get into the palace. The Jinwu Guard in the palace has been controlled by these civil officials. If the chaos continues, will the dynasty kill Duke Qin Tan?

It is indeed a bit incredible and difficult to do, but if you are charged with regicide, it is not impossible...

Qin Tan Gong held military power, but he could not mobilize troops in this imperial city...

Duke Qin Tan thought he could shock everyone like he used to, but this time the three ministers were determined to take him down. The five-level imperial guards locked the imperial city, and the five-city military commanders guarded the city gate. Duke Qin Tan was unable to escape with his wings.

Maybe those witnesses who were exposed to their murder were originally their plan to trap Qin Tan Gong...

But agreeing to retreat to the court and keep the door closed means losing freedom and being seized...

Although there was a time when Qin Tan Gong's family was impeached and forced to resign and return to his hometown, it was not the official position that forced Qin Tan Gong. This time, how could Qin Tan Gong bear it?

If you can't bear it...what will happen today?

"minister..."

Qin Tan Gong's voice sounded, breaking the silence and stagnation in front of the hall.

The dispute between the officials also stopped instantly, and the Jinwu Guards on both sides held their weapons tightly and were on guard.

"I am in charge of the government. Now I am injustice for not being vain and I am ashamed of the court. I have no face to stay in the court anymore. Please ask Your Majesty to find out this matter and return it to me for my innocence."

The eunuch beside the emperor heard him breathing.

There will be no blood splattering on the spot.

The expressions of the officials in the hall were also complicated, with disappointment, regrets, annoyance, and injustice...

"Your Majesty, Mr. Qin is in charge of the center, how can the court lose him?" An old minister went out to the side and knelt down and shouted.

Then many officials knelt on the ground and shouted.

Chen Sheng also turned around and bowed to the emperor, saying, "It is precisely because Duke Qin is a minister who is in charge of his duties that he should be more cautious and honest."

The hall also knelt on the ground and agreed.

Now that they were finished speaking, it was his turn to speak. The little emperor sat upright and said with great energy: "Accurate."

Qin Tan said righteously to thank the Lord Long's kindness, stood up, and the officials in the hall lined up, watching him walk out, his steps were steady, and he walked through everyone without panic, crossed the high threshold, crossed the squad with weapons standing outside the door, and walked along the straight road, crossed the fifth level of the imperial guards and left the palace gate.

Until this moment, the people in the hall breathed a sigh of relief.

The news that Duke Tan of Qin retreated and stayed in his doorstep spread throughout the capital.

"I was taken home by the imperial guards..."

"Wouldn't that be a conviction?"

"It's not a conviction, it's said to be just an escort."

"What are you escorting? You obviously need to be under house arrest..."

"Mr. Qin's troops are all in other places, so that he will not be mobilized..."

"It's over now. Once the door is closed, the city gate is closed, and the imperial guards besiege the city. Without the orders of the prime minister, how can foreigners easily mobilize troops?"

"When the soldiers are transferred, the charges are settled. Can't we still rebel?"

There was discussion everywhere on the streets, and the emotions fluctuated as more and more soldiers gathered around the city.

......

......

"It's that simple?"

Xue Qing sat up from the rocking chair.

Mr. Si Broo tear the chicken on the table with both hands and said vaguely: "What's the complicated thing in the court?"

Xue Qing said: "This guy is so obedient, why don't you kill him on the spot?"

Mr. Si Broo spat out a chicken bone and said, "That's the court, in front of the emperor, not the vegetable market, kill chickens and sheep on the spot."

Xue Qing said: "It's not uncommon in history, why are you pretending?" She breathed and lay back on the rocking chair, "Since the Imperial City and the others have controlled it, we won't take the opportunity to take action."

"Solving problems is not about killing people." Mr. Sihuang said vaguely, pointing at Xue Qing with his chicken claws, "You can remember this, don't be a tyrant."

Xue Qing opened her mouth and fell into nothing.

Mr. Si Brown took back the chicken claws and stuffed them into his mouth.

"The saint said that if you can't solve the problem, you will solve the problem." Xue Qing said, "especially when dealing with bad people."

Mr. Si Brooke vaguely said, "Your saint ignores it."

Xue Qing said: "Then, this is over? As soon as someone testifies and physical evidence is brought up, the crime will be sure, so I will become the emperor?"

Mr. Si Bro said, "What's the end? It's simple to say that the court is simple. The key is to be outside, to conquer the public, to conquer the world, to the border, and to... soldiers and horses siege the city, to assassinate the secret guards..." He looked at Xue Qing with a squinted look, "Boy, this is just the beginning. The world is the vegetable market. Kill chickens and sheep, to see who is the knife and slaughter, to see who is fish, bloody, dangerous..."
