The doubts and curiosity in the hearts of the left and right phases lasted for a day and night.The next morning, the atmosphere was stranger than ever, and the ministers changed their majestic demeanor in the past, and after shouting three long live, they were all as panicked as frightened birds, and no longer dared to speak at will.There are several fewer people in the court today.Nine years after the emperor ascended the throne, the first official dynasty, as the emperor's chamberlain and personal chief steward Mu Xi, naturally had the obligation to report the details, "The king was unwell and took sick leave." ”Feng Qi leaned on the dragon chair, still holding his chin in his hand, scanning the ministers in the hall, with a lazy and arbitrary posture."
Hmm."
Regarding Mu Xi's report, he just hummed lightly.This simple sound, I don't know what it means, the ministers subconsciously lowered their heads a little."
Ouyang Xin, the secretary of the military department, and Ji Xia, the left attendant, took leave at the same time."
Although they knew that Ouyang Shangshu and the squire were on leave before Mu Xi spoke out, when Mu Xi said this fact in public, the ministers still felt a trembling fear in their hearts.Ouyang Xin is the brother of the Queen Mother, the youngest son of Ouyang Chunfeng, a veritable relative of the emperor, and his position in the court is the secretary of the Ministry of War.Is this a protest with the emperor and coercing the emperor to release the queen mother?
Still do you want to tell the emperor that the power of his Ouyang family has spread all over the court, even if he is the emperor, he can't do whatever he wants, and he can put anyone under house arrest if he wants?
Ji Xia is a squire of the military department, and he should have already stood on the same line with King Yu and the Ouyang family, so no one was surprised by his leave.It's just that it's one thing to understand in your heart, and the ministers are even more frightened in their hearts.The Ouyang family is too bold, the emperor has just returned to the court, and he has not yet figured out the emperor's temper, so he dares to demonstrate to the emperor so blatantly?
In case the emperor is angry......
The corners of the ministers' eyes couldn't help but glance at King Yu who was standing in a row of princes, and Feng Qingshu had an indifference on his face, as if the sudden leave of these people had nothing to do with him.However, no matter how natural and calm he behaved, the ministers' hearts were open, and this matter was inseparable from King Yu.Feng Qi obviously didn't care about what the ministers thought in their hearts, and Mu Xi's words hadn't finished yet, "Your Majesty, there are also Dou Zheng, the head of the household, Lang Minghai, the left waiter of the household, and Gu Zihao, the right waiter, also took leave at the same time. ”The ministers' hearts sank.It's like a thousand pounds of boulder instantly pressing on their hearts, making them feel that it is difficult to breathe.Dou Zheng, the head of the household department, is the eldest brother of Dou Qin, the princess of Hanyue.Fengcang's law clearly stipulates that the horse is not allowed to enter the court as an official, but the horse's family can.The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household are the two most important departments of the six, the Ministry of War is in charge of Ouyang Xin, and the Ministry of Household is in charge of Dou Zheng.The ministers were in a cold sweat, I don't know if the emperor feels powerless at this time, or is he going to be angry?
On the first day of his reign, so many people openly challenged the imperial power, and all of them were officials in important positions.Domino effect.Even if it is to eliminate the queen mother's party, the emperor is afraid that he must take into account the overall situation, otherwise the government will be paralyzed, no one will be available to the court, the court affairs will not be implemented, and the emperor himself will not be able to gain more than he loses.Some people meditate in their hearts, will the emperor choose a temporary compromise?
If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and the high dragon chair is majestic, but many times, many things, are also involuntary."
Anything else?"
Everyone was thinking about it, only to hear the emperor casually ask such a sentence.Anything else?
And also......
Is it?
The ministers slowly gasped in their hearts.Your Majesty, this is enough to make you anxious, you actually ask, is there anything else?
The two most important of the six have gone on strike, and the side by side king is also protesting, do you think this is not exciting enough?"
Back to the emperor, it's gone."
Mu Xi replied respectfully, and then retreated behind the emperor."
Gone?"
Feng Qi sighed lightly and muttered, and there seemed to be a bit of regret in his tone, "Just a few people, I don't feel good about dealing with them." ”The retainers were sluggish.Disposal?
Why is it going to be disposed of?
Raising his eyes casually, his cold phoenix eyes seemed to inadvertently scan the hall for a week, and Feng Qi said lightly: "On the first day of my morning, I was in a very bad mood. ”Feeling bad?
The emperor is in a bad mood, isn't it bad luck to be a courtier?"
The emperor is angry!"
The people knelt down to plead guilty very well and did not dare to raise their heads."
Aiqing don't have to be afraid, if you are in a bad mood, it doesn't mean that I am angry in my heart."
Feng Qi sighed, it seemed that he was really as he said, and he was not angry because of this matter, "On the first day I came to the court, these people were sick and sick, and they took leave, which seems to be inconsistent with my eight characters." ”Eight characters do not match?
Your Majesty, you are really good at laughing."
The king is old, and illness is inevitable."
Feng Qi raised his eyes slightly, as if looking at the cloudless sky outside the hall, "Since he is not in good health, I will give him a grace, and in the future, I will be especially gracious and allow the king to go to court side by side." ”The ministers were silent.The king side by side is the first person in the emperor to open the knife.You don't have to go to court, you will slowly be expelled from the center of power in the future, and it will be impossible to return to the former honor of the palace."
Your Majesty."
The only person in the court who dared to speak was probably Feng Qingshu, "The king has worked hard all his life, and no one can compare to his contribution to the court, is it too chilling for the courtiers to do this?"
”"Chilling?"
Feng Qi seemed to feel very strange, slowly turned his head, and looked at Feng Qingshu indifferently, "Just because of his hard work and inconvenience, I gave him permission not to go to the court, King Yu thinks there is anything wrong with this grace, it will make the courtiers feel cold?"
”"Although the king is indeed unwell, he is loyal to the country and is willing to die for the court-" "King Yu, even if you want to sing praises and virtues, please choose a suitable time in the future, the early dynasty has limited time, and I don't have time to listen to you." ”Feng Qi's eyes were slightly cold, and after saying this, no matter how ugly King Yu's face was, he turned his eyes lightly, and his tone was indifferent, but he slowly gave birth to the iron-blooded majesty that only a king has, "Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, even if he is a king side by side, he can't cross the imperial power." ”The ministers' hearts trembled."
Mu Xi, every decision I made today, after the next court, I will draw up a will, let Ling Xiao take the guards to announce the decree, and all those who resist and disobey the decree can be dealt with as they should be, and there is no need to leave any mercy."
When the words fell, the ministers all trembled, swallowed their saliva uneasily, Feng Qingshu's face turned pale, and an ominous premonition suddenly came.
