Palace Scheming: Golden Bell Has a Son

Chapter 21 Sudden Changes in the Situation

On June [-], Ma Yuanzhi returned to Beijing.

Together with General Zhang Yichao and his party, Jiabing Zhirui sat on the horse, and the people of Chang'an gathered on both sides of the road.The people who had heard about the return of Hexi to the Tang Dynasty continued to cheer for the officials of the court and the special envoys who presented pictures.As soon as the team entered the city gate, countless people who had been waiting for a long time greeted them on both sides.

The sound of the hooves of the horses seemed to knock on everyone's heart.

As the team slowly approached, the people at the front flushed with excitement.The eyes of the people are closely watching this extraordinary team, expelling foreign enemies and regaining lost ground, the hero is destined to be famous in history, and how lucky they are to see such a scene.

At the front of the line, except for the soldiers who opened the way, the person riding a BMW in front was dressed in military uniform with piercing eyes. He looked about 50 or [-] years old, with only a few white hairs on his head, and he was very excited.

Next to him was Ma Yuanzhi, the general of Huaihua who was also smiling. Both of them straightened their waists straighter when they saw the excited people.

Obviously, this old man is Zhang Yichao, the former leader of Shazhou.

The people looked at this man who could not be called an old general by ordinary people, and unconsciously let out cheers full of emotion.There were so many voices that it was hard to tell who said what, but with such a warm welcome gesture, even the most ignorant people would not doubt the kindness and joy in their words.

The team stopped suddenly, and General Zhang held the reins in his hand, showing a smile.

There is no pride and arrogance in this smile, nor is there any emotion and vicissitudes, just a simple and simple joy.He just smiled and looked around, remembering those cheering faces in his heart, and then his eyes filled with tears

His lips moved, his expression was agitated, tears slowly gathered in his eyes, and he only said one sentence.

"Congratulations to my Tang Dynasty, I finally regained the lost ground!"

The old general who practiced martial arts, even if his words were choked up because of his ups and downs, many people still heard him.

So, after a moment of silence, Chang'an completely boiled like a pot of water burned by a raging fire.

"General Zhang! General Zhang!"

"Back to the lost ground, the great fortune of the Tang Dynasty!"

"God bless my emperor, God bless my emperor!"

The cheers seemed to resound through the sky.

Ma Yuanzhi also sat aside and laughed, his once gloomy eyes were full of arrogance, but his face was full of radiance despite his travels.He looked down at those who cheered him, and the joy in his chest overwhelmed him.His body is not the same style as when he went there, but looks like a military uniform made temporarily, except for the over-new materials, it looks very good.

The black armor and gold helmet are just to avoid taboos, and the iron plate on the chest is a ferocious tiger.

After being proud, Ma Yuanzhi couldn't help but look at Chang'an, which had gone through the baptism of years. It seemed that every brick on the ground was mottled.He clearly knew that this was the emperor's conspiracy and he still wanted to be fooled, and it was just for this scene that would be famous for all eternity.

Apart from the eunuchs, he is from the Ma family!

Although I can no longer continue the bloodline for the Ma family, but this trip is also honoring my ancestors.

Ma Yuanzhi's face showed a rebellious look, he didn't care why there was less news from Beijing.He just felt that his backhands played a role, and those who opposed him were already battered.

The sun is warm and the summer wind is blowing.

With the audience of the former Shazhou leader Zhang Yichao and others, Ma Yuanzhi, the general of Huaihua, had no idea that he was starting to die.At this time, Zhigao is full of arrogance and domineering, and it will be his last glory in this life.

It's a moment,

In the Hall of Chenghuan, the golden bell was half lying on the soft bed, Concubine Xian smiled at her while reading the book in her hand.Blue paper with white pages and black characters, the sound of Concubine Xian's gentle reading can be heard.

The half-lying woman couldn't help touching her lower abdomen.

It's three o'clock,

The emperor hosted a banquet in the Linde Palace for the Hexi Tang envoys and officials, and raised their glasses to General Zhang Yichao.General Zhang, who was sitting below, had a pleasant smile and a flushed face, and one could see the excitement and joy in his heart at a glance.

Ma Yuanzhi, who was somewhat neglected, snorted softly, but others pretended not to hear it.

Four moments before the present,

Concubine Xian has already returned to the Xianju Palace, she just drank the newly made flower dew presented by the Shang Palace Bureau, her cheeks were slightly red.

Her eyes were so soft that water could be squeezed out, but she was in a trance, and her scattered thoughts slowly reached the sky.Just wait for the emperor to come, and with her well-conditioned body, she might be able to have a child in one fell swoop.

As you time approached, the palace was brightly lit.

Li Yi walked down from the high place, the smile disappeared on her face, her eyes were stern, and her steps were steady and powerful.

He was born with seven points like the late emperor Mu Zong, and the remaining three parts of his eyebrows followed Zheng's, but in his eyebrows and eyes similar to Zheng's, there was no weakness that could be bullied, but an extremely aggressive aura.

Step by step, complex expressions appeared on his beautiful face.

Wearing a crown on the head, twelve white beads hanging down, embellished with gold and jade, twelve chapter patterns on the black and black clothing, the sun and the moon on the shoulder and the star pattern on the back.Li Yi put on this solemn attire that was often used in sacrifices, without any reluctance, to show the majesty of the emperor and the great joy in his heart.

Then he descended the steps, his eyes on the courtiers.

Scanning with deep gaze, the originally lively scene instantly quieted down, and Ma Yuanzhi, who was sitting at the bottom right, frowned a little puzzled.Then Li Yi stretched out a hand and slowly waved it down, looking at everyone with extremely calm eyes.

"Take down Ma Yuanzhi."

His voice was cold, but the guards who rushed out to carry out the order did not hesitate.

Ma Yuanzhi immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Yi in disbelief. Before he could get close to the guards, he stood up and slapped the case hard. the hem of his clothes.

"Your Majesty, this general supported you to become emperor, what do you want to do?!"

Accompanied by deafening voices, there were guards attacking with weapons. Ma Yuanzhi dared not resist in public and was unwilling to be arrested without a fight.

He got up and jumped over the wine table, and went straight to Li Yi in front of him.

Ma Yuanzhi looked furious, and the tiger on his chest seemed to run out of his clothes and devour people's lives.

He didn't even look at the guards he had brought. Those who didn't stand up to protect him just now were already traitors in his eyes.But Ma Yuanzhi didn't understand why the emperor suddenly acted cruelly.

Could it be that after he left Beijing, he was really cleared of all his influence?

No one reported, no one secretly reminded, there are still many former confidantes sitting here.He thought that the emperor was just killing chickens to scare monkeys to be dissatisfied with his actions. This was also an expected behavior, but unexpectedly, the world was turned upside down in an instant.

"emperor……"

Ma Yuanzhi was full of reluctance, and then he was dozens of steps away from Li Yi when something hit him on the head.

When the silverware fell to the ground with a bang, blood continued to overflow from the back of Ma Yuanzhi's head, and he fell weakly to the ground, his face pale.The guards who surrounded him immediately grabbed him, clasped his arms and knelt down, and asked Li Yi for instructions.

In the rear, General Zhang withdrew his hand, calm as usual.

"General Ma has indeed made great contributions, but it is not the reason for you to break the law with your own body. I tolerate you for improper words and deeds, but you usually accept bribes and deduct tributes, dig river embankments without regard for the lives of the people, form cliques for selfish purposes to disrupt the government, exclude dissidents and frame Zhongliang, and even Intended to deceive my eyes and ears and arbitrarily judge the state affairs!"

"Ma Yuanzhi! Are you guilty!"

Li Yi looked down at Ma Yuanzhi with a weak face, speaking righteously, no one around the officials dared to intervene.

"My minister refuses to accept. I have contributed to the Great Tang and the emperor. I welcome the Hexi envoy back to Beijing. My minister's Baoxian is the emperor's virtuous concubine. The minister's son-in-law was only injured when he escorted the emperor's disaster relief money. What's more, if he is guilty, he has merit! Your majesty, you can't slander your ministers without evidence, your majesty, you have to show evidence!"

Ma Yuanzhi's eyes were full of unwillingness.

He was really in a mess right now, with the wine on his body and the blood slowly flowing down to the skirt of his clothes, there was no one in the court to help her at this moment.In the midst of anger and dissatisfaction, he felt deep fear again. He had never been treated like this when he was in power, and even though he was humiliated in his heart, he didn't want to die.

"Your Majesty, the subject deserves merit even if he is guilty!"

He lowered his head slowly, with a ferocious face, but pleading in his tone.

"Great merit? As a general of Huaihua, you never went to battle to kill the enemy, but you used your power to eliminate dissidents! Are all the officials who died at your hands really charged with the crimes you fabricated?" Li Yi snorted coldly.

"The return of Hexi to the Tang Dynasty is due to General Zhang. Without him, I would not be so happy. As for the concubine Xian who lives in the harem because of her virtues, General Wan is not your son-in-law, but she is still a courtier. What's more, he has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Even if Concubine Xian and General Wan have high meritorious service, what does it have to do with you!"

Li Yi thought of what Ma Yuanzhi had done, and it was inevitable that he would feel disgusted when he recounted what Ma Yuanzhi had done. He caused General Wan to be seriously injured, but now he still wants to use General Wan's merits to save himself.

Simply shameless!

"Put it down for me and wait to be dealt with."

The guard obeyed the order.
