empires are male goblins

Zhongzhou, Imperial City, Zuo Xiangfu, in the meeting hall.

Long Yiyin sat in the middle, lined up on the left and right sides, and there were quite a few people seated.If other people in the court saw it, they would definitely turn pale with fright, and all the people present here are all important people in the Chunyang Empire today.

"Everyone, what do you think of what Lord Long said just now?" After Long Yiyin sang, one of them put down the wine glass in his hand and asked a question.

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately stopped discussing and looked up.They are not very impressed with the person who just spoke, but some people have seen this person many times in Zuo Xiang's residence.But regardless of whether they have seen it or not, with this person's current ranking, he can only be placed under the left prime minister, and this person's identity is far from something they can ignore.However, what Mr. Zuoxiang said just now is reasonable, but it may be difficult to operate. Furthermore, everyone is not a stunned young man who goes in and out of the court, so they have vaguely guessed Zuoxiang's meaning.

Among the seats, a person stood up, bowed his hands towards Prime Minister Zuo, then looked at the person who had just spoken and said, "Since Mr. has opened his mouth, let the Minister speak directly. What Prime Minister Zuo said just now are all golden and jade words. It is also deeply in my heart. As the saying goes, there is one emperor and one courtier. Besides, the ancestors have given instructions before him. Now that His Majesty's whereabouts are unknown, and the empire is in trouble. At this moment, it is understandable that Mr. Zuoxiang is in charge of the court. In this book, only the Prime Minister of the Left will follow his lead."

"No, no. Jiang Shangshu is the Minister of Rites, how can he say such stupid words." A person in the seat suddenly opened his mouth, stepped forward at the same time, and reached the center.He looked around, and finally put his gaze directly on Jiang Shangshu's face, and said with a straight face: "Rites, the king and his ministers are the greatest. I dare not ask Jiang Shangshu, Emperor Zhengyang is your king, and you are his king." minister?"

"It's not bad that Emperor Zhengyang is a king, but he was the king of the previous dynasty."

"Since you are a king, no matter whether you are in the past or the future, do you have the duty of a courtier?"

"The so-called duty of a courtier should be there. I also ask Lord Fu. His Majesty the Emperor Zhengyang has been in the National Teacher Hall for a long time. Can he understand the current situation of the empire? Yu also asked him to take care of state affairs, what kind of servant's duty is this?"

The two faced each other and refused to give in to each other.

What they said represented the two opinions of the entire court at present.According to the instructions of the ancestor Lu Ya, once the prince of the dynasty becomes an adult, he must immediately ascend the throne unconditionally, and no one can violate it.At the same time, the ministers of the former court and His Majesty the abdicated entered the Palace of National Teachers, and from then on, they did not care about worldly affairs and only concentrated on their cultivation.Therefore, given such ancestral teachings, even though Emperor Zhengyang had once been honored as the Son of Heaven, he now has no right to intervene in the affairs of the empire.But the contradiction is that the whereabouts of Emperor Jiyang are unknown. Not only is the crown prince not an adult, but he is still a god embryo, and now even the god embryo is gone.

Therefore, what everyone is arguing about is not only who should be at the helm of the current empire, but also about the future throne of the empire.So, who would dare to take such important matters lightly?

However, no matter how much everyone argues, this matter must be resolved, and the sooner the better.

The debate between the two sparked heated debates on a larger scale, and people continued to join in. There were quite a few people who held two opinions, but generally speaking, those who supported the left side had the upper hand.It can also be seen from this point that Prime Minister Zuo did not set up a small imperial court, but invited all the people who could be invited and who were important at the same time.

"Okay, my lords have understood the meaning of the truth. But right now, I can't drag it any longer. Let me first make it clear that the truth has absolutely no intention of meddling with the throne." Long Yiyin waved his hand to stop it. Everyone continued to argue, and with their sharp tongues, even if they quarreled until next year, they still couldn't figure out why.However, having said that, Long Yiyin used a little force to hold the cup.He had summoned everyone here, and he happened to be able to see how many people were on his side, so he could be targeted.

Hearing what the master said, both parties returned to their seats angrily, not forgetting to stare at each other.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door, and everyone heard hurried footsteps from a distance.

Long Yiyin's face remained unchanged, but he felt a little happy in his heart, the second person he had arranged finally arrived.

Just as he was thinking about it, a man ran in from outside the door. The man was sweating. When he saw Zuo Xiang Long Yiyin, he immediately knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "Master Zuo Xiang, something is wrong. I just received a report saying yes The Lord of Nanzhou, Keqi, led an army to Zhongzhou, declaring that he would avenge the crown prince."

"What!" Everyone panicked, and the quiet meeting room just now suddenly became chaotic.The state lord came rushing in with his troops, this matter is not as good as everyone sitting around and arguing about right and wrong, it might be a matter of losing his head.

Master Jiang suddenly turned his head, looked at Master Min, Minister of the Ministry of War, and asked sharply: "As Minister of the Ministry of War, Master Min, don't you want to say something about this matter?"

Master Min's face turned cold, and he snorted: "What can I say?"

Indeed, he could say nothing.Although the imperial court has the post of minister of the Ministry of War, for a long time the imperial army has been in the hands of the general.Once he died in this matter, the governor below who was about to move naturally couldn't sit still, who could order them to fail?

However, things were far more than that. Someone came in from outside the door, bringing two more bad news.

"Report to Prime Minister Zuo, the rulers of Xizhou and Beizhou have all mobilized troops, and Zhongzhou has also mobilized troops."

Snapped!

The sound of the cup falling to the ground sounded, and the people sitting there completely panicked.Of the five prefectures of the Chunyang Empire, only Dongzhou has not moved at present, and the soldiers and horses of the four prefectures will definitely not be able to resist even if there is a royal imperial forest army.Now that His Majesty's whereabouts are unknown, the world will soon be in chaos. Misfortunes never come singly.

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient! Although this minister is not good at military formations, I want to have a discussion with the governors of the four states!" Mr. Jiang stood up, bowed his hands to everyone, and walked straight to the door.

As soon as he left, the noise became louder, but immediately after the sound of footsteps, the two rushed out, shouting: "Master Shang Shu, stay a while, we are willing to go together."

As they said that, more people walked outside, their faces were full of anger, and they obviously made a plan to succeed or be benevolent.

Long Yiyin glanced at the person sitting still, and suddenly burst into tears, crying: "The fate of the empire is really worrying. There were rebels before, and now there are soldiers and horses from five states. I want to turn the tide, but I don't have enough energy. .”

The sound of crying is sad, tears are flowing, and people can't help but follow the tears when they hear it.

Before him, the two stood up to persuade him, but Long Yiyin cried even more sadly.Seeing this, the others couldn't sit still anymore, some followed them out, and some came over to persuade them, and soon there was only one person left in the seat.

The man glanced at his head, sneered, turned and left.

"Lord Zuoxiang, you must ensure your health. The empire is now a pillar of the sky. If you have anything else, who can the empire count on."

"That's right, I don't care what other people say. Anyway, I only follow the lead of the left minister. I can't guarantee other people. If someone in the Imperial Forest Army says 'no', I will kill him immediately!"

"The subordinates are also willing to swear to the death to follow Lord Zuoxiang!"

……

Many people showed their loyalty on the spot.Inspired by them, some people who were originally swaying also made a decision, and they must do extraordinary things at extraordinary times.

This one, of course, is Long Yiyin's performance.This is the day he has been waiting for since he started setting things up early.It's just that he didn't expect that the pressure he encountered would be so great, and more than one-third of the people in the court opposed him.These people, apart from Long Yiyin's right-hand party members who had expected long ago, actually also belonged to the camp of himself and the general.But at present, it's not the time to tear up his face, Long Yiyin still has a lot of backup.

The situation of Zuo Xiang's mansion is unknown to outsiders, but the news of His Majesty's disappearance and the death of the Great General has spread all over the world.Bearing the brunt, the most influential is the imperial city.At this moment, not only some people were discussing, but also some people simply quit their jobs and thought about closing the door for refuge.

Later, the news that soldiers and horses from five states gathered in the imperial city was also spread, and the entire imperial city was completely in chaos. All of a sudden, the streets were full of chaos, most of the shops were closed, and the common people couldn't even eat rice noodles. Can't buy it anymore.But the most irritating thing is that the person in charge of the city gate didn't know what he was thinking, but actually closed the city gate. As a result, people outside could not get in, and those inside who wanted to escape were also cut off.Some people are unwilling to reconcile, they are active in relationships, and spend a lot of origin stones, just want to leave this source of chaos as soon as possible.

In the secluded and secret courtyard, Qiao Jun glanced at the ingredients handed over by someone outside, and couldn't help frowning.

The person who delivered the food glanced at him, and immediately sent out the depression that had been pent up in his heart for a long time: "Why do you still dislike it? Don't you know how much effort it took me to buy these things? It's not good for you to dislike it, hurry up You won’t be able to buy these things tomorrow.”

After speaking, the man smiled coldly, turned around and left.Qiao Jun gritted his teeth and immediately asked, but the man didn't even look back.

That night, the food on Feng Yuan's table became much lighter. Even though Qiao Jun's skillful preparation looked delicious, it was still quite different from yesterday.

Feng Yuan glanced at it, pretended not to care, picked up a chopstick with his chopsticks, and ate it with a big mouthful.

Seeing Brother Yuan's indifferent expression, Qiao Jun felt even more uncomfortable.It doesn't matter what you eat, but you must not wrong your beloved Brother Yuan.Ever since they were imprisoned here, although they couldn't get out, they were still free, and people delivered things on time every day, and the treatment and standards were in accordance with the standards of the former right minister.Therefore, Qiao Jun gradually became more open-minded. Although His Majesty Jiyang is sometimes confused, it is not in vain for them to be able to leave such a period of time for himself and Brother Yuan in the end.

"Eat, the sky won't be messed up." Feng Yuan said something out of nowhere, and put a chopstick in Qiao Jun's bowl.
