More than ten years ago, after the change of Renchen Palace, Li Xin was already the Marquis of Jing'an, but at that time he was still a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man, although he was in a high position, but these old people in the capital, only regarded him as a nouveau riche, although he respected him on the surface, but it was inevitable to treat him as a child.

But today's Marquis of Jing'an is twenty-eight years old.

He began to grow a beard when he had his first child, and after more than ten years of ups and downs in the court, coupled with the tempering of the officialdom battlefield, the current Marquis of Jing'an is not to say that the momentum is terrifying, but there are already some shadows of the old prince Ye Sheng.

In the entire court, no matter who it was, including the Son of Heaven, no one dared to despise him for half a point.

He just said hello softly, and the eyes of Shen Kuan, Yan Shouzhuo and the others flickered slightly.

Marquis Li smiled kindly, glanced at the many civil officials kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "I rushed for a day yesterday, and I got up late today, so I couldn't come to the court meeting early in the morning, what are you discussing, why are you all kneeling on the ground?" ”

"I'm Dajin, it doesn't seem that there is a rule of kneeling to discuss politics, right?"

Shen Kuan was silent for a while, got up from the ground, and said, "Didn't Mrs. Li go back to his hometown to sweep his mother's grave, when did he return to Beijing?" ”

Li Xin's face was calm and he spoke indifferently.

"Originally, I was in my hometown of Yongzhou, and I was going to take a break for two or three years, but I heard that something happened in the southwest in my hometown, it seems that there was a dispute between the Shu Wangfu and the imperial court, and there was going to be a fight, so I thought about going back to Beijing to ask what happened, and I just arrived in the capital yesterday."

"Shen Xiang and Yan Sikong are both kneeling on the ground, I don't know why?"

Shen Kuan was silent for a while, and bowed slightly: "Taifu's status is noble, but he is not an auxiliary minister of the first emperor's will, I am ordered by the first emperor to assist in governing the country, today's matter, and my Dajin Society's Ji Gang system, please don't interfere." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, then looked at the officials kneeling on the ground in the Weiyang Palace, and said in a deep voice: "Otherwise, you will be the enemy of the hundred officials in the court!" ”

These civil officials are not very afraid of the emperor, firstly, because the emperor is not pro-government, and secondly, because the emperor wants to take care of his reputation, but they are afraid of Li Xin's unreasonable Qiu Ba, this Li Marquis has been in the court for more than ten years, and he has always been unscrupulous in doing things, and he has never suffered losses, but he still has the forbidden army in his hands, if he really wants to intervene and stand on the side of the Son of Heaven, it will be difficult to do things today.

The Marquis of Jing'an no longer paid attention to Shen Kuan, but turned his head to look at Yuan Zhao Tianzi and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, when the minister first returned to Beijing, I don't know what happened in the capital, can Your Majesty solve the minister's doubts?" ”

Yuan Zhao Tianzi nodded, and said to Xiao Zheng: "Go and tell Master Li about the cause and effect." ”

Xiao Zheng immediately nodded, walked down the imperial steps, came to Li Xin's side, bowed his head, and told Li Xin the ins and outs of the whole thing one by one.

After listening to this, the Marquis of Jing'an took two steps forward and walked to the forefront of the hundred officials, and then turned around and faced the hundred officials, the smile on his face had been retracted.

He looked at the kneeling officials with a blank expression.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is this a palace change or a rebellion?"

Shen Kuan snorted angrily: "The Son of Heaven is immoral, we just ask the Son of Heaven to suspend his pro-government and cultivate virtue, and all the ministers in the palace have nodded in agreement, and His Majesty will still be His Majesty at that time, how can the palace change?" Mrs. Li doesn't want to spew blood! ”

"Hundreds of officials kneel on the ground and coerce the Son of Heaven, how is it not a palace change?"

The Marquis of Jing'an sneered: "A group of bold people, at this time, do not want to repent, thinking that there are many people, why can't the court help you?" ”

He looked back at the Son of Heaven, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, Shen Kuan, Yan Shouzhuo and others openly form friends and coerce each other in the court, and now more than half of the courtiers in the Weiyang Palace have no king!" ”

"The rules set by the ancestors of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Son of Heaven was in power at the age of sixteen, Emperor Wu ascended the throne at the age of thirteen, and he was already in charge of the government at the age of fifteen.

Speaking of this, the Marquis of Jing'an turned his head to look at Shen Kuan, and his voice was cold.

"The first emperor set up auxiliary ministers, and he set up ministers to assist the Son of Heaven, not to abolish the ministers of the Son of Heaven.

Li Xin respectfully clenched his fists at the Son of Heaven.

"Please have full authority to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

These words can be said to have gone to the emperor's heart, the Son of Heaven waited all morning, waiting for this sentence, he took a deep breath, and his voice trembled slightly.

"I ...... also has this intention, so I asked Li Shi to temporarily lead Yu Linwei and Qianniuwei to investigate this matter thoroughly! ”

Li Xin got the will, turned his head to look at the civil and military ministers who were kneeling on the ground, and then walked to Ji Lin in the first row on the right, squinting his eyes.

Ji Lin was still kneeling at this time, so Li Xin half-squatted down and spoke to him in a low voice.

"Dadu Governor, when I was in the capital at the beginning of the year, I told you that you are a military attaché, don't mix with civil officials, almost a year has passed, and Dadu Governor has not listened to my words at all."

Ji Lin was silent for a while, and finally said in a sullen voice: "Taifu Li, there is no distinction between civil and military in this matter, if Your Majesty is not wrong, I am the Great Jin Clan, and I will naturally stand on Your Majesty's side." ”

The Marquis of Jing'an half-squinted his eyes and smiled: "To say something that the Metropolitan Governor doesn't like to hear, like you, who is the first rat at both ends and the twilight, is not only far worse than the previous Metropolitan Governor Ji Ping, but also much inferior to Pei Jin, if you are not a clan, give you a hundred years, you will not be able to come up in this position." ”

"Ansheng is a national prince at home, and he enjoys a lifetime of happiness by relying on his surname, why bother to come out and be an official?"

"It's just a matter of being an official, and I'm still deaf and blind."

Even Ji Lin was not lightly angered by Li Xin's words, he glanced at Li Xin angrily, and said angrily: "Li Changan, don't deceive people too much!" ”

Li Xin smiled.

"Look at it, look at this time, can this surname on your body save your net worth."

After saying that, the Marquis of Jing'an stood up, turned his head to look at the civil and military officials in the hall, and his voice was cold.

"Shangshu's left servant shoots Shen Kuan, Yushi Dafu is strictly clumsy, Shangshu's right servant shoots Sun Jeju and others, fake public and private, and make friends!"

"Come on, tie them up with the official and send them to the prison of Dali Temple!"

Dozens of Yu Linwei had been waiting outside for a long time, and they didn't care about anything when they heard the words, they rushed directly into Weiyang Palace, and according to Li Xin's previous instructions, they tied up these civil officials with hemp ropes, and after brutally strangling their mouths, they were escorted out of Weiyang Palace.

After they left, Li Xin did not leave, but looked at these ministers kneeling on the ground with an expressionless face.

"I went to the spring of the year and took more than 200 jinshi, and in two years I can open the spring and even this year."

"There has never been a shortage of people who are willing to be officials."

"You knelt on the ground, now stand up, this incident will be treated as if it never happened, if you are still obsessed, your net worth and life will be put into it, and it will not be enough to compensate!"

The "alliance" of civil officials was already fragile, not to mention that several prime ministers were directly kidnapped by Li Xin without reason, and the rest of the people in the Weiyang Palace were suddenly panicked, and many people stood up tremblingly when they were so frightened by Li Xin.

Marquis Jing'an half-squinted, glanced at the more than twenty people who were still kneeling on the ground, and sneered.

He turned around and bowed to the emperor and clenched his fists at the emperor throne, his voice was very calm.

"Your Majesty, the minister has gone to kill someone."

Yuan Zhao Tianzi nodded in amazement.

Li Xin slowly withdrew from Weiyang Palace, turned around and left with his hands in his hands, his big sleeves fluttering.

Controlling the situation in Weiyang Palace is only the first step, and if you only do this step, it is basically useless.

The key is to dare to kill, and those who dare to kill the emperor will not dare to kill, until they are all afraid, and the turmoil will naturally be calmed down.

This is an infamy that Yuan Zhao Tianzi does not dare to carry and cannot bear.

However, for Li Xin, it is insignificant, he has often carried the black pot for the emperor over the years, and he is already familiar with it.

When Deputy Jing'an Hou Ye walked out of Weiyang Palace, and when he walked in the palace wall, he glanced back at the main hall of Weiyang Palace behind him, and pursed his lips with some disdain.

"Emperor Wu is still martial and heroic, and after only three generations, he will lose everything."
