Chapter 747: Three days later, I'll give you an answer
It's like matching her mood.
That night, there was suddenly thunder and lightning, wind and rain for most of the night, Nanyan didn't fall asleep very late, looking at the flashing white light outside the window, his heart was in a mess.
In this way, until it was almost dawn, I barely closed my eyes and slept lightly for a while.
However, it was not long before he was awakened by the sound of heavy, hurried footsteps outside the door.
Nanyan frowned slightly and opened his eyes.
I heard Ran Xiaoyu's voice coming from the door: "Tingfu, what are you running around again?" Beware of bumping into me! ”
"Sister Xiaoyu, have you heard? Something is wrong! ”
"What's the big deal?"
"I just heard that all the fortifications on the eastern side of the city have collapsed!"
"What?!"
Ran Xiaoyu was taken aback, and her voice was a little uncontrollable, and Nanyan was suddenly shocked to wake up, and suddenly sat up from the bed.
"Xiaoyu, listen to Fu!"
As soon as the people outside heard her call, they all came in.
"Mother."
Nanyan picked up the clothes on one side and put them on, then got out of bed and asked Tingfu, "What did you just say?" All the fortifications of the city wall have collapsed? ”
Tingfu stood in front of her, nodded, and said, "Yes." ”
"Who said that?"
"Said the messenger who came back from outside."
Nanyan frowned.
"How did it collapse?"
"Well, I'm not sure. But I heard that it was during the thunderstorm last night, and the lightning struck the city wall, so it collapsed. ”
“……”
"I heard that there are still a few workers buried underneath, and they don't know if they are alive or dead."
When Nanyan heard this, he only felt that his heart sank.
She thought about it for a while, and hurriedly asked, "Does the emperor know?" ”
"The messenger has passed, and if you think about it, you should already know it."
"And what about the ministers?"
"I must have known. After all, there are ministers who stare at that side every day. ”
“……”
Nanyan was silent for a while, and then said, "Hurry up and freshen up for me." ”
Ran Xiaoyu stood beside her, listening to the situation that Tingfu said, although she didn't fully understand the overall situation, she also vaguely understood that this time, they were afraid that they would face a big trouble.
So, he immediately came over with hot water and served Nanyan to wash.
After that, she was persuaded to eat two mouthfuls of food first, after all, for pregnant women, three meals cannot be reduced, and Nanyan also ate two bites of wax under her persuasion.
Then, he hurriedly went to Zhu Feng's study.
Unbeknownst to him, when he walked around there, he heard a commotion in front of him.
Looking up from a distance, sure enough, outside the study, there were already ministers standing, and everyone was talking, and there were nothing more than some anxious and heavy looks on their faces.
Of course, there is a faint schadenfreude in this expression.
After all, they were clearly opposed to this project, and now, a thunderbolt split the city wall, which really saved them a lot of trouble.
Even better, you can use this to make a big fuss.
At this moment, Zhu Feng was sitting behind the desk in the study, listening to several officials from the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tianjian standing below, and said in a heavy tone-
"Your Majesty, this catastrophe from the sky is a warning!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Beiping City, it can't be expanded anymore."
"Yu Tian is reasonable, Yu Guo is the people, and the emperor, the construction of Beiping City can no longer be carried out. Otherwise, this time it's a thunderbolt, and next time, I don't know what it is! ”
……
The more they talked, the tighter Zhu Feng's brows tightened.
He said in a deep voice: "At this time, there are already many thunderstorms, and thunder splits a wall, what is it?" ”
"Your Majesty, this is a mistake!"
The official of Qin Tianjian said: "You must know that heaven and man sense, heaven will affect personnel and predict disasters, and children's behavior can also be sensed. ”
“……”
"Now, the sign given by God to the emperor to build Beiping City is a bad omen!"
"yes!"
Several officials around hurriedly agreed: "Your Majesty, God is always inspired by everything the monarch does. This time to build Beiping City, obviously, God did not agree. ”
"That's why such a calamity has befallen you."
"If the emperor insists on going his own way again, I'm afraid that I don't know what kind of calamity the heavens will continue to bring!"
Their series of words made Zhu Feng's brows furrow.
Outside the gate, those officials also knelt down and said to him in unison: "Your Majesty, please stop building Beiping City!" ”
The Yanwang Mansion in Beiping was originally much smaller than the Jinling Imperial City.
The sound of them shouting in unison suddenly resounded throughout the entire Yanwang Mansion.
Zhu Feng's eyebrows have already wrung out a pimple.
At this time, Ye Zhen slowly walked to his side, thought for a long time, and whispered: "Your Majesty ......"
He has followed Zhu Feng since he was a child, and of course he knows that Zhu Feng is a person who says the same.
But at this time, even Zhu Feng himself was a little speechless.
After all, public anger is hard to do.
In the past, although Zhu Feng also confronted officials like this because of his "accession to the throne" and the punishment of palace maids, he knew very well that he was in control of the first two things, and these courtiers could not affect him at all.
But this time, it's different.
Although he went to Beiping, all the officials in the south were opposed, and the officials in the north were silent-
He can't really be a loner.
However, if he gave up like this, he naturally couldn't do it.
Just when he was stalemate, the officials in front of him, as well as the ministers standing outside the door, kept kneeling, kowtowing, and kept saying: "Your Majesty, the heavens have sent a bad omen, just to warn the emperor that he can't go his own way anymore!" ”
Seeing them like this, Ye Zhen took a step forward and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, are you trying to force the palace against the emperor?!" ”
As soon as they heard the word "forcing the palace", these ministers were also startled.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Yan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen and others are just thinking about the emperor, I don't want the emperor to insist on going his own way again, ignoring the warning of heaven, in case of another disaster, our Yan Kingdom will be finished!" ”
"Ask the emperor to take back his life!"
“……”
Zhu Feng looked at them with a calm face, and after a long while, said, "So, you are forcing me?" ”
"Weichen doesn't dare."
"If you don't dare, get up!"
“……”
They hesitated, they finally seized this opportunity, and they were unwilling to give up halfway, but they knew Zhu Feng's temper to some extent.
For fear of pushing him tighter, it will not do him any good.
You know, it's not been a year since the three thousand palace maids were killed!
When there was a stalemate between the two sides, Zhu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "You guys get up first." ”
“……”
"I'll have to think about this again."
“……”
"In three days' time, I will give you an answer."
