Omi had to sit up

Yang Wugang paused slightly when he was about to go out, and secretly looked up at Xie Zhen in the high hall.

The courtiers who were supposed to participate in the performance suddenly became quiet, and the faces of the veterans who were still talking just now suddenly became ugly.He secretly glanced at the old minister who was dismissed from power, and winked several times.

"The ministers are not impeaching the Marquis of Jing Ning." Finally someone among the veteran ministers came out and said, "Your Majesty, it is true that the Marquis of Jing Ning can protect the holy car and save the border crisis. The ministers also remember the demeanor of the Marquis. But Lin Chenshu Now that you have a high position and power, you are in charge of the military and government, and the ministers are also thinking of the emperor."

After he said this, the people in the court glanced at each other. The courtiers who were still talking before saw that someone was speaking for them, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the emperor sitting above.

The emperor concealed his expression at [-] o'clock. He looked at the audience, his original stern expression remained unmoved, but he slowly said: "Jing Ninghou is carrying out the new policy for me, and he is working hard for me. Qi Shangshu, Not only do you not sympathize with Jingning Hou Liang’s painstaking intentions, but you failed to complete the task and questioned his review, what is the meaning of this?”

He spoke slowly, and actually mentioned the Hubu Shangshu who participated in the performance first. The Hubu Shangshu was taken aback for a moment, his face froze slightly, and he quickly bowed and said: "I am not questioning, it is really that I and my subordinates have tried their best." ..."

"Even if you try your best and still can't do it well, why should you hold on to the high position of the second rank?" Hubu Shangshu lowered his head to defend himself, but Xie Zhen sneered in his ears, and the emperor had already sent a message, "Qi Xingfeng, from today onwards, you don’t need to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs anymore. The Shangshu is a capable person, if you can’t, there will be capable people to relieve my worries.”

"Your Majesty?!" Qi Shangshu didn't expect that Xie Zhen would directly dismiss his official position with a few words. His face suddenly changed, and he quickly looked up at the emperor, but seeing that the other party's expression was expressionless, he was not joking. look.

It has been nearly five years since the new emperor ascended the throne, and all the veterans in the court know that Xie Zhen rarely really gets angry in the court. Even if he let Lin Chenshu sit next to the dragon chair at the beginning, what he did was to hide his edge and settle accounts afterwards His style of work, and he has never dismissed people from official positions on the spot in the court.But right now the emperor's gaze from inside the twelve o'clock is icy cold, his expression is not fake at all, just like the real one.Qi Shangshu's legs softened for a moment, and he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have not slacked off, Your Majesty, I have no intention of offending Marquis Jing Ning, please forgive me, and give me another chance!"

Xie Zhen didn't answer, but just called Manager Luo.

Director Luo immediately understood what Xie Zhen meant, and asked people to come forward to take Qi Shangshu's Xuanguan and admonishment plaque.He has served Xie Zhen for many years, so he naturally knows the reason why the Minister of the Household Department was dismissed. In order to keep Lin Chenshu, the emperor specially ordered him to rush to the other party's residence to read the imperial decree. It goes without saying that he attaches great importance to Lin Chenshu. Metaphor.Now Lin Chenshu, as the Marquis of Jingning, stays in the palace for a few days every month, and has an extraordinary relationship with Xie Zhen. Even today, he is probably still asleep in Xie Zhen's bedroom.Qi Shangshu didn't know how to directly touch Xie Zhen's Nilin. Xie Zhen is not a person who will suffer, and he will definitely attack him directly.

Qi Xingfeng, who had been dismissed from his official position, kowtowed to the emperor and cried, but was quickly taken down by the palace guards to the main hall. The only thing in the hall was the cries of the former Minister of the Household Department, who was drifting away, and there was silence.The ministers of the Ministry of Rites, Minister of Qin Tianjian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the minister who spoke all felt chills down their backs, and looked at the ground with their heads down and their eyes wide open.The rest of the courtiers were secretly thankful that they hadn't rushed to rush into the muddy waters of Jingninghou just now, but at this moment, they were too arrogant and didn't dare to make a sound.

In the current hall, I am afraid that a needle dropped can be heard very clearly.

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Qintian Supervisor of State Affairs." After a while, Xie Zhen's voice really called the names of the two, "Is it really necessary to be so ostentatious in praying for rain?"

There was the dismissal of the Minister of the Ministry of Households, and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites sweated profusely and said: "Your Majesty, the process of praying for rain in the past was relatively cumbersome. It's just that there has been no drought for a long time in my dynasty, and it has been a long time since I held such a ceremony. "

He found himself a step down, and Xie Zhen heard the words: "Our country has been in wars and chaos, and the national treasury is empty. I don't know much about praying for rain, and the ceremony has always inspired the heavens with sincerity. What does Qin Tianjian think?"

Qin Tianjian had already scolded the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites who dragged him into the water, but he immediately responded after hearing Xie Zhen's words: "What the emperor said is that the emperor and Hou Jingning worked hard to govern, cared about the people, and were sincere. If you have eyes, it will rain down on our country."

"Yes yes yes. What the emperor said is very true." The minister of the Ministry of Rites next to him hurriedly replied, fearing that the black hat would not be safe.

He wavered his position again by saying this.Xie Zhen just laughed and looked at Xiang Xin, who had just taken office as Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials is a new official who was promoted by Xie Zhen after Liang Fengyuan, but Jian Zhenzhen seemed to be shocked, and his intestines were green with regret, and he knelt down before he could speak.

"Jing Ninghou discussed with me in advance when promoting officials, and got my permission." Xie Zhen said coldly, "If you are dissatisfied, I will let someone else replace you."

"The emperor forgives the crime, but I know I was wrong, but I dare not." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials kowtowed again and again, only hating himself for talking too much for a while.

Xie Zhen's face was grim, and he ordered the Minister of the Ministry of Officials to suspend his post for one month and fine him half a year's salary.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials did not dare to refute, so he had to ask Director Luo to send someone to take off his clothes, and resigned to his fate to leave the hall.

They were participating in Jingning Hou Lin Chenshu's tough tactics. Who would have thought that Xie Zhen would directly dismiss two second-rank officials in the hall within half an hour, and his attitude was even worse than Lin Chenshu's? Jing Ninghou's is not.The old ministers who participated in the performance also looked ashen, and felt bad.

In the past, Qi Yanchu and Fang Shouqian were two powerful figures in power. Xie Zhen had never directly rectified the court in the hall, but today's change made all the old officials wake up again. Their emperor is no longer the puppet of the past , but an emperor who is out of everyone's control.

Now, the emperor has looked at them coldly.

"As for the impeachment of Hou Jingning..." Xie Zhen sat on the throne and said, "I don't know how Hou Jingning offended you, can you tell me?"

The veterans were dumbfounded.Jing Ninghou Lin Chenshu acted swiftly and resolutely, and many of their disciples complained about it. In addition, the mansion and land deed that Xie Zhen assigned to Jingning Hou was a good location in the capital and the suburbs, which already made many aristocratic families jealous , these many factors add up, and the interests are already contradictory.

Lin Chenshu, the son of a merchant, was still ridiculed by everyone a few years ago, but now he clings to Xie Zhen and becomes the favorite of the emperor, and his status is higher than theirs overnight, and no one finds it pleasing to the eye.Coupled with the fact that he was given real power for refuting Lin Chenshu's position earlier, the veteran officials all held back their anger.

It's a pity that none of these reasons can be brought to the table.The courtiers participating in the performance were dripping with cold sweat and did not dare to say more: "It has always been the case for powerful ministers and favored ministers to plot rebellion, and the ministers also want to remind the emperor."

"As long as Jing Ninghou is here for one day, he is one of my people. Why do you need to remind me?" Xie Zhen said coldly.

"..." Giving respect to the throne next to Marquis Ning's dragon chair is enough to show how much the Holy Majesty attaches importance to Lin Chenshu.The phrase "my people" on this matter has moved many people in the court.

Xie Zhen didn't care about the gazes of these people, and glanced at a few old officials and said: "You are getting old, and I see that you are working very hard, and you don't have to come to court again from tomorrow."

Does the emperor mean to let them retire and return to their hometowns? !

Several old ministers turned pale immediately, begging for mercy directly from above.Seeing this, the civil and military officials next to him didn't know whether to ignore it or show mercy.

Yang Wu and Li Yezhi stood at the back, and also saw with their own eyes that Xie Zhen directly dismissed the officials of the court because of Lin Chenshu's affairs.Listening to the pleadings of the veterans in front of him, Yang Wu couldn't help looking at Xie Zhen.

He knew that Lin Chenshu and Xie Zhen had a different relationship.Xie Zhen once rescued Lin Chenshu from the Diyi army camp by driving himself. Lin Chenshu was the first to rush out when he heard that Xie Zhen was in danger during the life and death battle of Taiqian. The two disappeared for a long time at the same time. Sometimes they stay together and walk side by side, which is enough to prove that the relationship between Xie Zhen and Lin Chenshu is far more than what it seems on the surface.

Lin Chenshu should have identified Xie Zhen, that's why he was with Xie Zhen.When Yang Wu first heard that Lin Chenshu's reputation was humiliated, he originally wanted to stand up and argue with others, but Xie Zhen solved it faster and faster than him, and he was not at the same level as himself.

Probably only Xie Zhen could get together with his Master Lin.

Yang Wu thought to himself, but saw that the emperor was wearing a dragon robe, with a dignified and majestic appearance, and someone was crying in the hall, but he didn't even change his color, he just called the guards in the imperial city, and then looked at these veterans with cold eyes Take off the mysterious crown by yourself.

The court affairs in the morning were originally a one-hour event, but there were a lot of changes in the court today, and it took two hours for Xie Zhen to go to court before announcing his next court.After he finished handling a batch of Chen Zi, he thought that Chen Shu was still in the bedroom, so he didn't choose a way to go to the imperial study, but ordered him to go back to the bedroom to rest.

Walking through the palace wall all the way, Xie Zhen finally saw his bedroom.

When he left, the door was closed because Lin Chenshu was still asleep inside, but when Xie Zhen came back, he saw that the door of the original bedroom was slightly opened, as if pushed open by someone up.

Xie Zhen frowned, picked up his steps gently and walked into the hall. He was afraid of waking Chen Shu up, so he walked without making a sound, but when he entered the inner room, he saw that there was no one on the bed in the room.

There was no breathing of anyone else in the room.

Originally wanting Chen Shu to rest for a while, Xie Zhen called the servant in the palace to ask.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Jingning woke up not long after you left." The servant looked at Xie Zhen hesitating to speak, but still said respectfully, "He was also waiting for the Emperor to come back, but when he got there, he talked with the villain halfway. He said something happened in the house, so he had to go out of the palace and go back."

"He went back?"

"Yes." The waiter said.

Although Lin Chenshu's mansion is large, it only lives in Chen Shu alone, and usually there are no temporary incidents. Xie Zhen's eyebrows quickly sank, he turned away the people around him, and slowly sat in the dormitory middle.

Chen Shu stayed here all night, and the bedding had already been changed the next day, but thinking of the good night last night, Xie Zhenyuan's stern face gradually softened.

But at this moment, he suddenly caught something out of the corner of his eye.

Xie Zhen's eyes froze for a moment, and he quickly looked at the ground he had just seen.

The ground is flat, but there are a few drops of liquid splashed on it.

Xie Zhen narrowed his eyes, squatted down and gently wiped the liquid on the floor with his hands. When he spread his palms, he saw a dark red spot on the fingertips that were dipped, which was the color of blood.
