Chapter 571: Distinguish Bloodline in the Current Era!
"Your Majesty, regarding the assassination of Yu Hui'an, the Ministry of Punishment has not come up with a charter for a long time. It is clearly incompetence and inaction!" A censor came forward to report.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Punishment has wasted people and money, and disturbed the people but ultimately achieved nothing. The previous assassinations of several princes and this incident at Yuhui'an all illustrate this. Your Majesty, please punish the Ministry of Punishment!" Another censor came out. , after saluting the emperor who was sitting high above him, he also got angry.
"Your Majesty, the matter of Yu Hui'an is closely related to the assassination of several previous princes. How can it be what you all have in mind? It is even related to the remnants of the previous dynasty. The subordinates are working hard to trace it and do not dare to relax at all." Qiu Qian, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, stood up calmly and replied to the emperor.
"Since they are remnants of the previous dynasty, we should act faster. If we delay it any longer, it will only make everyone doubt the ability of the Ministry of Punishment, and it will also affect the safety of the emperor. Since these remnants of the previous dynasty are doing so wantonly in Yuhui Temple, Because, I might attack a few princes again next time!"
Another censor came out of the censor's desk. As soon as he stood up, he said that his intention to support the two previous censors was obvious, but the topic was quietly sidetracked.
Chu Liuchen closed his eyes slightly. Sitting sideways in the wheelchair, he looked handsome and handsome, but he was also very weak. His handsome face was pale and the color of his lips was light. It was obvious at a glance that he was not in good health.
Originally, he didn't have to come here to go to court. What could his body be used for? It would be nice to take good care of it.
In the past, he never went to court. King Yue and King Zhou were fine before, but the court officials had invited several princes to join the court as directors. Now that King Yue and King Zhou are going to court, he is very noticeable. King Chen who arrived naturally also had to arrange things.
As for whether his body is okay or not is another matter. At least the emperor treated everyone equally. Only the youngest King Xin, everyone thought it could wait.
Not only was King Xin a little younger, but he also acted much less calmly. The emperor also said that he would not join the government until he was older.
Chu Liuchen had never been in court before, because it was said that he had been bedridden. Today, he suddenly went to court, which surprised many people. However, seeing the sickly prince sitting in a wheelchair and resting with his eyes closed, Although it was a bit rude, everyone still pretended not to see it.
What's the point of bothering with a sick person who has no tomorrow? Besides, this person is still favored. If someone accidentally causes something to happen, no one can bear the responsibility.
Moreover, all the ministers knew in their hearts that this person was the most justifiable one. If he wanted to come to court and someone stopped him, he would probably remain infamy for eternity in history.
Therefore, even the kind of official who is very "strict" and pays great attention to "good reputation" will not come to trouble Chu Liuchen.
Come if you want. Although in this great court, besides the emperor, only the prince has a position, but this person's body can only be like this.
It's pretty good that he can still hold on with his eyes closed. What more can he ask of King Chen!
"Your Majesty, the remnants of the previous dynasty are so vicious that they must all be eliminated to prevent the world from being devastated again." Another official came forward and said loudly.
"Yes, I would like to ask your Majesty to re-investigate this matter. We must not allow the enemy to gain momentum like last time, sweeping through several cities and causing many people to lose their homes and lives. Even my eldest brother... ..." Duke Xingguo stood up from the steps, his always round and flattering smiling face turned red, his eyes also turned red, and he choked up when he said this.
This remark aroused a wave of sympathy.
At that time, many people who died in that war were closely related to the high-ranking officials in the court. When the people of the previous dynasty captured people who were closely related to the high-ranking officials, they all resorted to ruthless means, and few of them survived. few.
This statement immediately aroused the anger of the same enemies, and many ministers stood up.
Chu Liuchen raised his eyes, fluttering his long eyelashes twice. He looked at the angry-looking ministers in the hall expressionlessly for a few times, and then looked at Chu Liuyue and Chu Liuyue who were standing in front of the ministers. Chu Liuzhou then slowly lowered his eyebrows and continued to support his head with his hands, leaning back to rest with his eyes closed.
This is certainly not the focus this time.
Everyone knows that the remnants of the previous dynasty must be known, but now this matter cannot be realized immediately. The figure of the previous dynasty flashed past in Yuhui Temple, but after further investigation, it was discovered that although the man in black was They were from the previous court, but no one was left alive, and no further investigation could find anything.
As for the biggest secret in Yuhui Nunnery, it is not the previous dynasty, but the position of the former emperor's concubines. What we are going to talk about today is actually not the previous dynasty. In other words, other things are what the courtiers are best at doing.
He calmly led the matter over, and he was here today not because of his own volition, but because of his uncle's wishes. From today on, if he's okay, he can come out more often to listen to politics and exercise more. It's not good for his health. You can get better and be with normal people.
The drunkard doesn't care about wine, and neither does he.
Taking the initiative to enter the court with a weak body will arouse suspicion, but being forcefully invited by the uncle will not be criticized even if there is any outrageous behavior.
The ministers asked for help one after another, and the emperor on the high Danque finally spoke, "We should vigorously clean up the affairs of the previous dynasty, and never let the remnants have a chance to take action. The Ministry of Punishment, Jing Zhaoyin, and all the guards in the capital have We must pay attention to this matter, and we must not allow any sloppiness. If something really happens, I will ask again."
"Yes, I will naturally do my best!" The ministers at the foot of the steps immediately expressed their loyalty together.
"Your Majesty, I think that the former emperor's concubines are also in trouble. If they don't know how to behave, they can actually find a way to die for each other." Another official came out and said, "I think that the incident at Yuhui'an certainly has something to do with it. The emperor’s handwriting is in it, but the concubines of the late emperor in Yuhui Nunnery are also very restless. If anything bad comes out, it will destroy the innocence of the royal family!"
As soon as he said this, several censors immediately nodded.
"Your Majesty, I would like to inform you that the residence of the late emperor's concubines in Yuhui Nunnery should be the root cause of the chaos. Besides, there is also the late emperor's heir who was suddenly lured out. I really can't believe it!"
“It’s hard to believe that I’m a minister!”
"It's really unconvincing!" Someone secretly glanced at Chu Liuchen, who had his eyes slightly closed, and said this in a low voice. This person is also the heir of the late emperor. Although this matter is not about him, it is inexplicable. Always want to look at him.
In fact, the reason why he looked towards Chu Liuchen was because he saw the emperor's eyes turning over. The emperor was paying attention to King Chen. Many people came to this conclusion in their hearts, and this matter did concern King Chen. .
"Your Majesty, I feel that something is wrong. Because of the Emperor's kindness, the former Emperor's concubines did not ask for sacrifice. The previous dynasty did commit suicide. However, the previous dynasty was tyrannical and lost the support of the people. The Emperor himself It can't be like this." Another minister raised objections.
"The emperor is kind, but he cannot be taken advantage of. If Yuhui Nunnery is in such trouble, it is impossible to say that these concubines of the late emperor have no reason at all. Then what if the child is really the husband in Yuhui Nunnery? It has nothing to do with them? If others don’t know, how can they not know that there is an extra child when they are in there together? I feel that they have deceived the emperor together!"
Another minister turned out of the steps, but before he finished speaking, he was refuted by another minister. The atmosphere in the court was very heated, but the royal family members were all very calm.
King Yue and King Zhou stood at the top of the steps without saying a word. The emperor sat there and seemed to be listening to the words of the ministers, but he looked at his nephew from time to time, and his nephew, who had been sick since childhood, was forced to King Chen came to court, looking like it had nothing to do with him and he just needed to take good care of himself. He even closed his eyes, making it even more difficult to see his emotions.
Why was he so relieved when it came to the late emperor's bloodline?
Chu Liuchen felt very at ease, and his calm demeanor seemed to make people think that he knew everything, but everyone knew that he actually knew nothing. This matter had been done in secret before. Who would have thought that a playboy would Something like this could actually lead to such a big event.
Who would have thought that it would involve the late emperor, and also involve the late emperor’s posthumous son! To be honest, this posthumous child was younger than Chu Liuchen. It is said that she was conceived not long after entering the palace. However, the late emperor was ill at the time and did not reveal it. Later, when the late emperor died of illness and was afraid of disaster, this concubine was like those The concubines of the late emperor were imprisoned in Yuhui Nunnery and secretly gave birth there!
This child later left Yuhui Nunnery by chance!
The late emperor actually had another heir, which must have had a great impact on King Chen!
"Your Majesty, I think it remains to be discussed whether this person is the heir of the late Emperor. Let's not talk about Yu Hui'an. He himself is still questionable!" Zhang Xiang, who had been listening to the quarrel, suddenly stood up and addressed the Emperor. He said loudly with a salute.
One sentence made everyone who was arguing anxiously stop for a moment.
"I second the proposal!" Prime Minister Wen stood up without haste.
The two of them, one being the left prime minister and the other the right prime minister, were the two prime ministers of the dynasty. The two of them were united in a rare way. They immediately suppressed all the disputes just now and the court became quiet.
Chu Liuchen opened his eyes slightly, glanced coldly at the court, and then closed his eyes again, looking not very interested.
"Your Majesty, if you want to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, you can directly pass it on in front of the ministers!" Zhang Xiang suggested.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that it is better to clarify directly. If not, you should be beheaded. The royal blood cannot be confused; if so, you can also file a seal to prevent the blood of the late emperor from being lost!" Wen Xiang expressed his agreement in a low voice. .
Since the two prime ministers expressed the same intention, a large number of ministers expressed their support.
"Come here, pass this person up!" The emperor waved his hands to both sides. The ministers immediately stopped talking and looked at the palace door. When many people just came in, they saw someone being escorted at the side door...
