The world of film and television starts from a young age

Chapter 872
The young and vigorous Mu Qing, who was biased because of his sister, saw this situation, couldn't bear it any longer, and suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal."

"This kind of strange injustice through the ages, no one can touch their conscience. If you hear it, you don't hear it. Since the case was wrongly tried, it should be retried. This is the simplest reason, Your Majesty."

Mu Qing is not like other people who can say a lot of truth, but simply speak out what is in his heart.

But Mu Qing's words made Emperor Liang even more angry. His brother and sister betrayed him, and the ministers contradicted him with righteousness. Now you, a brat with no hair yet, dare to question him and teach him the truth ?
He roared loudly: "Presumptuous, Mu Qing, do you want to rebel too?"

Although Mu Qing was very imposing just now, he was so frightened by Emperor Liang's roar that he knelt down on the ground, not daring to look at Emperor Liang.

Mu Qing was afraid of Emperor Liang, but no one was afraid. Just when Emperor Liang was furious, a loud and steady voice suddenly sounded.

"The minister also agrees."

In an instant, everyone in the hall turned their eyes to the source of the sound, only to see Uncle Yanhou Yanguo standing up from the banquet suddenly, standing up straight, and walking under Emperor Liang.

"Your Majesty, what the Eldest Princess said just now has a clear context and clear facts. According to the law, it should be filed for retrial, but I just don't understand why Your Majesty is hesitant."

Although Yan Que hadn't been to the court for many years, his prestige in the court was still there. When he spoke, all the ministers immediately shouted.

"What Yan Hou said is very true, the ministers and others seconded."

"Your Majesty asks for your approval."

Emperor Liang was completely dumbfounded, his hands were shaking while pointing at everyone, and his eyes were even bloodshot.

"You are all clan relatives, clan relatives, who is it, who made you treat me like this, who made you treat me like this?"

Emperor Liang was emotional and completely lost his composure. It was the first time for him, who was always authoritarian and domineering, to show such a look in front of courtiers.

At this moment, the crown prince Xiao Jingyan who was sitting on the top suddenly got up, ignored Emperor Liang, and under the gaze of everyone, slowly walked up to Princess Liyang who was kneeling on the ground, and solemnly helped Princess Liyang up stand up.

When the others saw Xiao Jingyan's actions, they also stood up.

Only Emperor Liang looked at Xiao Jingyan in disbelief.

Xiao Jingyan turned around and walked in front of Emperor Liang, saluted and said: "My son seconded the proposal, I hope His Majesty will allow you to retry the case of Chi Yan."

Emperor Liang, who was originally excited and angry, was no longer excited when he saw Xiao Jingyan stand up, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"you you."

Mixed with anger, he stepped down from the dragon case and pointed at Xiao Jingyan: "It's you, I should have guessed it a long time ago, it must be you, only you, only you can..."

Then he noticed Concubine Jing who had been standing beside him all the time, and seeing Concubine Jing staring at him calmly and fearlessly, he suddenly understood, and laughed out loud at himself.

Yu Wang, who had been watching this scene with cold eyes, suddenly had a light in his eyes, and he stood up suddenly.

"Father."

King Yu first called his father, then stood in front of Xiao Jingyan, and angrily said: "Xiao Jingyan, you are so courageous, are you trying to force the palace to rebel?"

Xiao Jingyan just gave him a cold look: "Brother Yu Wang, this matter has nothing to do with you."

King Yu shouted excitedly: "Why has nothing to do with me, you want to force the palace to rebel, it's all about me, Xiao Jingyan, the father valued you and made you the crown prince, you actually conspired with all the officials to force the palace, you are so big courage."

"Jing Huan."

Emperor Liang stared blankly at this scene. At a time when almost everyone betrayed him, King Yu, who had been neglected by him for a long time, stood up and stood in front of him without hesitation. This was something he never expected.

King Yu said excitedly: "Father, don't worry, there is a minister here, if Xiao Jingyan wants to touch your father today, he will step on the corpse of the minister first."

"Jing Huan."

It was a scene of a loving father and son being filial, but Xiao Jingyan suddenly shouted: "Meng Zhi."

Meng Zhi stepped forward without hesitation and said: "The minister is here."

Xiao Jingyan said coldly: "Brother Yu Wang is drunk, in order to prevent him from losing his dignity in front of the palace, you arrange someone to take Brother Yu to rest."

"Yes!"

Meng Zhi replied loudly, and then with a wave of his hand, the imperial guards in the hall immediately rushed forward, forcibly restrained King Yu, and were about to pull him out.

King Yu said angrily, "Let go of me, Xiao Jingyan, what do you want to do? Let go of me, Meng Zhi, do you want to rebel too?"

But how could his words scare Meng Zhi, several Imperial Army soldiers had already pulled him a few steps away, and one of them directly covered his mouth with a cloth.

Seeing Xiao Jingyan and Meng Zhi's actions, Emperor Liang roared angrily, "Prince."

But his roar did not prevent King Yu from being pulled out of the hall.

Everyone present looked at this scene in blank dismay, especially those who did not stand up, all felt chills in their hearts.

What kind of person Xiao Jingyan is, the government and the public are relatively clear, but Xiao Jingyan's coldness at this moment is completely different from his past performance.

At this moment, Xiao Jingyan was full of majesty and domineering, and he was not at a loss when facing Emperor Liang.

Seeing Xiao Jingyan's indifference, Emperor Liang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Prince, Jing Huan is your elder brother, you can't do him any harm."

Xiao Jingyan said coldly: "Although I am the crown prince, I will not do anything to harm my siblings. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

He didn't even call his father, which fully demonstrated his determination.

"Your Majesty, please grant permission to retry the case of Chi Yan."

When this was brought up again, Emperor Liang was really furious. The attitude of Xiao Jingyan and the clan ministers made him understand that he is no longer in control of the court today.

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "According to Li Yang's complaint, the masterminds are nothing more than Xie Yu and Xia Jiang. But now, they are all dead. Why do you insist on retrialing?"

Xiao Jingyan said in a deep voice: "This case is about the truth and innocence, not just for convicting two people."

"Then who do you want to convict?"

Emperor Liang's tone changed.

Xiao Jingyan: "This case is a matter of great right and wrong. Those who are guilty or at fault should be investigated."

Emperor Liang sneered and said, "What a guilty person, what a loser, who are you talking about?"

Xiao Jingyan didn't speak, but just looked at him without hesitation, not only him, he found that many people also looked at him in the same way.

Faced with such a situation, Emperor Liang was silent for a long time, and then slowly asked: "What if I don't agree? Does the prince really want to force the palace?"

Xiao Jingyan said loudly: "Jingyan was taught by the elder brother of the emperor since he was a child. As we all know, his elder brother only wishes for the eternal prosperity of the country and the well-being of the people. What he did not do back then, Jingyan will not do."

"You can't? If you can't, what are you doing now?"

Because Xia Jiang died early and did not discover Mei Changsu's identity, Emperor Liang did not know that Mei Changsu was related to Lin Shu, so naturally he would not mention Mei Changsu at this time.

Xiao Jingyan was silent, just stood there quietly, neither speaking nor flinching, his attitude was very tough.

Emperor Liang's expression was stern. What happened today was something that he never even dared to think about, and he didn't even notice any signs in advance.

If it hadn't happened suddenly, he wouldn't have known that Prince Xiao Jingyan had such prestige in the court, even people like King Ji and Yanhou were on Xiao Jingyan's side.

Even the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army who controls the imperial city has become Xiao Jingyan's man, together with all the civil and military officials, the Mu Nihuang siblings who control the military power, and Concubine Jing who control the harem.

Thinking about it carefully, it was really terrifying, even the emperor, he was forced to this point.

He really couldn't figure out how Xiao Jingyan did it. One must know that Xiao Jingyan hadn't even become the crown prince for half a year.

"Why, Prince, why are you doing this?"

Xiao Jingyan's answer was concise and clear.

"For truth, for justice."

Emperor Liang said in a deep voice: "Prince, I don't believe that you planned this situation by yourself. It seems that you have someone to help you."

As he spoke, his gaze quickly shifted to Mei Changsu who had been sitting quietly all this time without making a sound.

"Mr. Su, if it weren't for the help of you, a unicorn genius, I'm afraid there would be no such scene. It's just that I don't understand, what good is it for you to do such a thing for a counselor like you?"

"benefit?"

Mei Changsu stood up expressionlessly, looked at Emperor Liang with a strange look, but said something irrelevant.

"In the 26th year of Jingyun, His Majesty was still the prince. He was framed by others, and the butcher's knife was hanging on his neck. He was your classmate who was studying with you. Later, Lin Xie, the commander of the Red Flame Army, tried his best to find the evidence and presented himself to the late emperor before he rescued His Majesty. Life."

Hearing these words, Emperor Liang's expression immediately changed, and he stared at Mei Changsu with a shocked and puzzled gaze. This happened 40 years ago, and he didn't understand why Mei Changsu knew about it. so clear.

Mei Changsu didn't stop, and continued: "In the 29th year of Jingyun, the Five Kings Rebellion bloodbathed the capital. At that time, Marshal Lin was only a commander of the patrol battalion. He personally led [-] cavalry, rushed into the forbidden army camp, and finally tried to protect His Majesty. enthroned."

The past events were brought up again, causing Emperor Liang's heart to be flustered. He shouted excitedly: "Shut up, shut up, shut up."

But how could Mei Changsu shut up?

"Ten years after Kaiwen, the Western Jin Dynasty fell, Jinling besieged the city, and it was Lin Shuai who fought a thousand miles from the north, fought bloody battles for three days, and put an end to the chaos in the capital."

"Whether he is a friend or a minister, Lin Shuai has never betrayed His Majesty. The request made by the prince and courtiers today is nothing more than to restore the truth of the past. Why is Your Majesty unable to agree to such a reasonable request? Woolen cloth?"

When it came to the end, Mei Changsu also lost his temper and was extremely agitated.

Emperor Liang pointed at Mei Changsu in shock, and roared, "Who are you? How do you know this? Who are you?"

Mei Changsu remained silent, his goal had been achieved and his emotions had been vented, so it was not his home game anymore.

Xiao Jingyan took a step forward, stood in front of Mei Changsu, and stared at Emperor Liang.

Emperor Liang's eyes fell on Xiao Jingyan again, his brows were furrowed, and he rushed to the dragon case, drew his sword, and threatened in a cold voice.

"Prince, do you really want to rebel? You are not afraid that if I kill you, there will be a new prince tomorrow."

Seeing this scene, many people in the hall became nervous, especially those who were closer, such as Meng Zhi, whose hand was already on the handle of the knife.

Xiao Jingyan also replied indifferently: "You can kill me, you can kill all the people in the world who want to find out the case, because you are the king, but when you kill everyone, are you still the king?"

"My son has always set the elder brother Huang as a model, but my son will never be the second elder brother."

The last sentence sounded like thunder in Emperor Liang's ears, making him tremble even the hand holding the sword.

How could he not understand Xiao Jingyan's words, when King Qi faced death, he did not make any resistance and went to die sadly.

Xiao Jingyan said that he would not be the second King Qi, which meant that it was obvious that if King Qi did not resist, it did not mean that he would not resist.

If he is really pushed to the limit, it is not impossible to force the palace to rebel.

To be honest, Emperor Liang was really startled by Xiao Jingyan's last words.

But before today, he would not be frightened, but now, at this moment, he is really frightened.

As the emperor, he knows the role of power best. Now, in this hall, the person who controls the power is not him, but Prince Xiao Jingyan.

The long sword in his hand fell to the ground uncontrollably. Emperor Liang passed Xiao Jingyan and the officials without saying a word, and walked out of the hall slowly step by step.

Although Xiao Jingyan didn't stop or speak, Meng Zhi followed behind Emperor Liang, leading a group of imperial troops to follow.

In the past, this was protection, but now, it is surveillance and control...

Emperor Liang returned to the Yangju Hall, and his whole spirit became abnormal. He who was always authoritarian in the end was really defeated at this moment.

The angry Emperor Liang smashed everything in the palace crazily. Everyone in the palace was driven away, except Gao Zhan, who didn't dare to approach.

Emperor Liang roared loudly, vented, cursed...

He is very regretful now, regretting making Xiao Jingyan the crown prince, and at the same time it is unbelievable that Xiao Jingyan has already mastered most of the power in the capital, driving him to such a desperate situation that he can't even resist.

The majestic emperor, being forced to such an extent by his own son and the crown prince, made him most desperate and angry.

When everyone was afraid to come in, Concubine Jing walked in.

In the hall of the birthday banquet, no one left, and everyone was waiting quietly. All of them knew that one of the Emperor Liang and the crown prince must compromise today, and the person who compromised was probably Liang Liang. Emperor, so they are all waiting, waiting for Emperor Liang to recognize the situation.

After waiting for a long time, Mei Changsu signaled Xiao Jingyan to follow him to the side.

"Jingyan, going on like this is not an option."

Although Mei Changsu wanted to retry Chi Yan's case, he didn't want Xiao Jingyan to really force the palace to rebel.

Xiao Jingyan said, "He will figure it out."

Mei Changsu said: "But it may take a long time, let me go, I will go and meet him, maybe I can convince him."

"You? No, no."

Xiao Jingyan shook his head. He was afraid that Emperor Liang would harm Mei Changsu, so he said, "Let me go."

Mei Changsu said: "Your going will only intensify the conflict between you. If I go, I will only go to convince him, and there will be no danger."

"But……"

"Don't worry, today is the best opportunity. If today is over, it will be impossible to have the current situation. I want to reverse the case. It is a fair and honest reversal, not forced to reverse the case. This is my responsibility, so, Jingyan, let me go."

Seeing that Mei Changsu was so determined, Xiao Jingyan couldn't refuse, and could only nod his head in agreement.
