Oiran son

"You want me to take back my intention to send troops to suppress the Chongzhou refugees?"

After listening to Ouyang Chen's words, Emperor Jing spoke calmly.

"Yes, the whole matter was created by the prefect of Chongzhou. Even if he was to be held accountable, he should be held accountable, not those innocent refugees. The prefect mined silver mines privately, deceived the court, and oppressed the people. It's a capital offense, please order him to be severely punished, so as to set the record straight." Ouyang Chen bowed his hands.

Emperor Jing was silent, as if he was thinking about something, after a long time, he heard his voice.

"What is the real evidence for what you said?"

Ouyang Chen was taken aback, really based on evidence?Of course he didn't, he heard all these from Tang Xiao, so he rushed to report to Emperor Jing, where did he get any evidence?

"If there is no real evidence, it is a false accusation. Chen'er, I know that you care about all the people in the world, but you are still too reckless in doing things. You sued the prefect of Chongzhou before you have found out. If today's incident gets out, you will definitely be punished." Unfavorable." Emperor Jing spoke earnestly and earnestly.

Ouyang Chen also knew that he was too impulsive at this time, and he was not at all like his previous style. The root cause was that he subconsciously felt that Emperor Jing should trust him.

"It's my minister who is reckless. Please give me some time to find evidence to testify against the prefect of Chongzhou."

"I can give you time, but the purpose of sending troops to suppress the refugees will not change." Emperor Jing said.

"Why?" Ouyang Chen couldn't help asking, "I know that those refugees revolted out of helplessness, as long as the court is willing to recruit them..."

Emperor Jing interrupted his unfinished sentence, "Impossible! It is impossible for the court to recruit those refugees. Otherwise, other people will follow suit in the future, thinking that raising troops to revolt is a common thing, and will no longer pay attention to the court. inside."

Kingship is absolutely not allowed to be provoked by anyone!

Ouyang Chen stared at Emperor Jing for a long time. In fact, he should have known that Emperor Jing was not a good emperor. Otherwise, he would not have pinned his hopes on Zhu Xu before, hoping that he could save the people from suffering.It was only after learning that Emperor Jing was his biological father that he subconsciously forgot what kind of person he was.

Suppressing the disappointment in his heart, he retreated and said: "I have a request, I hope the Holy One will agree."

"tell me the story."

"Wei Chen wants to personally lead the troops to deal with this uprising, and I hope the Holy One will make it happen."

Emperor Jing's eyes flickered, and he shook his head and refused: "It's not that I don't want to fulfill you, but it's too late. I approved old General Chen to lead the army as early as the court. How can I change the commander now? Even if I love you again, But the state has state laws, and the family has family rules, so I absolutely cannot forget public affairs for personal reasons."

After Ouyang Chen left in disappointment, Shuangxi asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, this servant seems to be very disappointed when he sees Master Ouyang. Are you not afraid of pulling the father-son relationship that you have worked so hard to get closer and further apart again?"

Emperor Jing said: "This matter is obviously thankless. I don't agree to him, it's all for his own good. In the future, he will understand my painstaking efforts."

Ouyang Chen didn't understand Jingdi's painstaking efforts at all, and he didn't want to understand, even the slightest affection for him that he finally had had disappeared.

"I really don't understand how I have such a father who disregards the life and death of the people for the sake of the court's face,"

After returning home, Ouyang Chen hugged Luo Yun and vomited bitterly.

Luo Yun reached out and stroked Ouyang Chen's head, and said meaningfully: "Brother, do you really want to replace Old General Chen?"

Ouyang Chen sighed, "If someone else is leading the troops this time, they will definitely kill those refugees. The only way to stop this tragedy is that I am the one leading the troops. It's a pity that I realized it too late, and the matter is over. It's a foregone conclusion."

"That's not necessarily the case." Luo Yun smiled mysteriously.

"What do you mean by that?" Ouyang Chen raised his eyes.

"There are still a few days before the imperial court sends troops to set off, maybe there will be a turnaround." Luo Yun said with a smile.

Two days later, Ouyang Chen was called into the palace by Emperor Jing.

"Last time, didn't you say that you wanted to replace Old General Chen and take charge of leading troops to Chongzhou to deal with the rebellion of refugees?" Emperor Jing first asked Ouyang Chen how he was doing recently, and then turned the topic to the main topic.

Surprise flashed across Ouyang Chen's face, "Yes."

Emperor Jing said: "Zhen, after thinking about it for the past few days, I feel that what you said is correct. The chief culprit of the whole incident is the prefect of Chongzhou, and those refugees were forced to revolt. I should give them a chance to change their ways. .”

"My lord, what do you mean?" Ouyang Chen suppressed the ecstasy and asked.

"I have decided that you will be fully responsible for this incident." Emperor Jing said the answer that Ouyang Chen wanted to hear.

"Thank you, Lord Long." Ouyang Chen said with a smile on his face.

Emperor Jing stroked his beard with his hand, and said with a smile, "However, I still have a small request."

"Your Majesty, please speak." Ouyang Chen calmed down, thinking that what Emperor Jing would say next was the key point.

Inside the Ming Palace.

A guard walked up to Zhu Xu, whispered something in his ear, and a look of joy flashed across his face.

After the guards left, Qi Nian, who was sitting aside, tentatively said: "It seems that the prince has some happy event."

Zhu Xu said happily: "Ouyang Chen took the bait of the trick you suggested to me before."

Qi Nian quickly reacted, "The lord is saying that Ouyang Chen is willing to be the coach of this bandit suppression?"

On that day, Luo Yun sneaked into the palace and used means to force Zhu Xu to release Tang Xiao.

Afterwards, Zhu Xu felt ashamed and humiliated. He wanted to trouble Ouyang Chen again, but he was afraid that he would provoke Luo Yun again, but he was unwilling to let it go.

When had Zhu Xu suffered such a loss?

Just at that time, the news came that the refugees from Chongzhou had committed a rebellion. Qi Nian, who heard the news from the side, suggested to him to use this matter as a fuss to lure Ouyang Chen to leave the capital.

As long as they leave Ouyang Chen and stay away from the capital, Emperor Jing will be beyond his reach, how will they deal with him then?

In order not to let Ouyang Chen find out their trick, Zhu Xu recommended General Chen as the coach on the surface, and at the same time, through Tang Xiao's mouth, he let Ouyang Chen know the truth about the rebellion of the refugees in Chongzhou.

Zhu Xu knew Ouyang Chen's character well. If he knew that the gang of refugees were also forced by the government to rebel against the people, he would definitely ask to join the battle.It's just that Emperor Jing's reaction was missed. In order to let Ouyang Chen stay in the capital to check and balance him, Emperor Jing rejected Ouyang Chen's request.

Just when Zhu Xu thought that this plan would fail, he did not expect a turnaround. Emperor Jing suddenly changed his attitude and granted Ouyang Chen's request.

"That's great, congratulations, my lord, but why did the sage suddenly change his mind?" Qi Nian asked curiously.

Zhu Xu frowned. His father is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Now he suddenly changed his attitude. There must be some unknown reason behind it.

"My lord, are our people on the way, or should we fight after we reach Chongzhou?" Qi Nian asked again.

"It doesn't matter, but there is one thing to pay attention to." Zhu Xu gritted his teeth.

"I want to capture Luo Yun alive!"

Time flies, and soon came the day when Ouyang Chen led his troops to Chongzhou.

Luo Yun asked to go with the army, and Ouyang Chen was worried about letting him stay in the capital alone, so he assigned him a position in the army so that he could follow by his side in a legitimate way.
