Chapter 199 Favoritism
Chapter 199 Favoritism
the end of the year.
Golden Palace.
This is the last court meeting of the year.
Officials from various ministries came one after another, and Xiangguo stood at the head of the ministers. Not only officials, but also dignitaries and generals came to participate in the early court.
Everyone was waiting for the arrival of His Majesty the Empress, and many ministers had a gloomy look in their eyes.
It stands to reason that Gu Lan, as the newly promoted king of Jingyang, must attend the annual court meeting of this level, but there are almost enough people here at this time, but he still hasn't been seen.
As Prime Minister, Sima Qin cast a vague glance at the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
He observed the dark and crazy look on Zuodu Yushi's face, and couldn't help thinking.
The censor is in charge of supervising all officials, and Zuo Du censor is the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Now it seems that there is something important to mention?
Reminiscent of what happened in the capital recently, it is nothing more than the dispute between Jingyang King Gu Lan and the people of the Mingzu...
Sima Qin smiled like an old fox. It seems that today's court meeting will be very interesting...
He didn't worry about Gu Lan's problems at all, because he was one of the few people who knew the details of Gu Lan, and even knew the relationship between him and His Majesty. The mere impeachment of Yu Shi had no effect on him at all. .
In fact, in addition to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there are many officials in the six ministries who are ready to report the matter.
In their view, Gu Lan had a quarrel with the nobles of the Ming family who came to Dajing at the gate of the city. This behavior is really bad, and it hurts the dignity of the country and the empress!
However, His Majesty's handling is also very unreasonable!
Not only did Gu Lan not be convicted, but the nobles of the Hades were arrested and beaten. How can this convince the public?
Your Majesty acted so favorably on a little boy, didn't he mean that this little boy could walk sideways in the capital?
No one can offend him in the future?
On the contrary, he can bully whoever he wants to bully?
Is there still Wang Fa? Is there still a law? !
Therefore, all the officials were unconvinced, and Luo Chen cooperated with Wu Fan's remnant party to instigate, these unconvinced stunned young officials gradually condensed into a force!
They are going to make some big noises at this court meeting.
Even if Gu Lan can't be completely removed from the title of prince, he still needs to be injured, and he can't continue to be so arrogant!
These ministers acted without any scruples, so Sima Qin could easily guess their actions.
It is nothing more than wanting the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take the lead, and wait for the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to stand up first to visit Gu Lan, and then they will follow behind, taking turns to attack Gu Lan. !
After all, among them, many officials have already been entangled, and this force has developed into a considerable force in the dark, enough to occupy nearly one-third of the court.
Of course, it doesn't mean that the remaining two-thirds are officials who oppose them, but most of them are neutrals.
They often don't agree with any policy, and of course they don't oppose it. They have always followed the wind.
If the supporters occupy the majority, then they follow the trend and choose to support. If those who oppose it occupy the majority, then they will follow suit.
The law does not blame the public. Although such a political stance is not outstanding, it is better than stability.
Being an official in the court, sometimes being mediocre and stable is more important than being outstanding.
These people all knew the plans of the officials headed by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but more, they had an attitude of watching a show.
When the Prince is involved, and His Majesty's most favored King Jingyang, this kind of matter cannot be taken lightly.
Only that kind of passionate young man can be so easily incited to make hasty choices.
These old fritters who have been in the court for many years, all with a look of interest, are ready to watch the performance of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. As for their turn to express their opinions, it depends more on His Majesty's attitude.
…
"Hmph, the court meeting is about to begin, and King Jingyang hasn't come yet. It's simply that he didn't put Chao Gang in one's eyes. He's too arrogant and domineering!"
"That's right, when I wait for the courtiers to go to court, whoever is not the fourth watch will get up and prepare, and come to wait outside the south gate as soon as possible. King Jingyang is so rebellious, it is simply not to put your majesty in one's eyes."
"..."
Many people didn't see Gu Lan appearing, and they spoke out against him one after another!
The neutral faction also frowned, no matter what time it is, it would be disgusting to be late in the officialdom... because it symbolizes specialness.
I don't know when.
Mu Yuyan, dressed in a golden dragon robe, appeared from the back of the hall, still elegant and noble, with a graceful and graceful appearance, and her slender figure moved lightly, sitting on the dragon chair.
Her face was majestic and solemn, and the imperial aura was born spontaneously.
The faces of the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate below showed even more awe-inspiring expressions!
Because until now, Gu Lan still has not appeared, this kind of behavior is simply ignoring the emperor and ignoring the court!
"Today is the last meeting of the court this year. Do you have something to announce?"
The bright and melodious voice spread throughout the Great Hall, and the majestic momentum made all the officials tremble, and put all their minds on the morning court.
"Return to Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"
Under Zuodu Yushi's gaze, a seventh-rank Yushi stood up and spoke righteously.
"Ready to play."
"Jingyang King Gu Lan, intervening in the internal affairs of the Ming clan without authorization, affecting the friendly relationship between Dajing and the Ming clan, and acting arrogantly, oppressing the people in the capital, despising the imperial court and neglecting political affairs, please punish the crime!"
As soon as his words fell, all the censors in the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately knelt down and said loudly to Mu Yuyan, "Your Majesty, please punish me!"
Mu Yuyan's expression was unclear, and she couldn't see any expression, as if she didn't hear it.
Zuodu Yushi stood in the front position, it can be said that he could see clearly, his heart sank slightly, he didn't understand what His Majesty meant.
In their assumption, His Majesty had a countermeasure no matter whether he was in favor or against it, but Mu Yuyan acted as if he had never heard of it, so he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
"Your Majesty! King Jingyang also seeks the merits of Xuan Tiansi, takes credit for himself, promiscuously messes with the harem, is arrogant and arrogant, and does not diligently take the imperial examinations. He really disregards His Majesty's holy grace. Please His Majesty take back his title and relegate him to a commoner! "
"He should be beheaded!"
"..."
Not only the censors stood up, but several young officials from other ministries came forward to appeal for impeachment.
It seems that Gu Lan has done something heinous and cannot be forgiven!
But actually speaking, the only thing that hurt the nobles of the Ming clan without permission was a bit out of line, but it was Gu Lan's idea to subdue the Ming clan, and Mu Yuyan didn't care about how he dealt with the Ming clan.
What's more, she just issued an order yesterday to clean up the nobles of the Ming clan, and her intentions are very clear. These ministers have not heard of it, and they just stand up to talk about things. Wouldn't it mean that they will not come down?
"Is there anything else?"
Mu Yuyan narrowed her phoenix eyes, parted her red lips, and asked casually.
Immediately, the eyes of the kneeling officials froze slightly. Although His Majesty's tone was flat, they seemed to hear the slight sullenness in it...
(Yesterday I was in a hurry to go to the physical test, so the chapter name was wrong... Cough, it is very troublesome to change the channel station, all the handsome guys and beauties just let it go! Begging for data!!)
