Teng Jin said angrily: "General Huang Yuan arrested the murderer. Although he checked suspicious people during his patrol in the city, how could he come to my house and cause such mischief?"
Huang Yuan said righteously: "This house was originally the residence of the Pan Yuan family, and it was just awarded to Lord Xuezheng by the Lord. I received a tip that someone saw the Pan Yuan family sneaking back to Batu today and sneaking in here quietly.
I led people to search for the criminals wanted by the monarch. I did not want to offend Sir Peng Keng, but I also asked Sir Peng Keng not to resist your order. After entering the mansion, I only searched for Pan Yuan and did not want to alarm others.
If Mr. Peng Keng wants to stop him, he is suspected of harboring connivance. If Mr. Peng Keng has no guilt in his heart, please open the mansion and accept the search."
The voice of General Huang Yuan was very loud, and everyone sitting in the hall could hear it clearly. The expression on Shaowu's face changed immediately, and the faces of Huwa and Shaomiao were also very ugly. They were still talking just now,
No one in the country really wanted to arrest Panhu, and they would be slapped in the face in the blink of an eye.
Huwa unfolded his consciousness and clearly noticed what was going on in front of the gate. The patrolling general led three small teams of sergeants, and a total of more than 20 people armed with weapons surrounded the gate and were about to rush in.
Of course, Tengjin refused to let go and said sternly: "Whether the door can be opened or not, I have the final say at this moment! You alone are not qualified to let my master answer in person!"
Huang Yuan has ordered the sergeant to draw his sword, forcing Fujikin to take action. If he fights with the patrolling army in the capital, the nature of the fight will not be serious. If it gets too big, he may even be charged with treason.
It is nothing new for a monarch to order the arrest of a murderer, but I have never heard that the city patrol army will search the mansion of an adult for no reason. This cannot be done without evidence, and speculation cannot be regarded as evidence, not to mention that this is a tiger.
The baby's mansion.
But this General Huang Yuan jumped out and found an excuse, claiming that someone saw Pan Yuan sneaking in here quietly. Regardless of whether this evidence was fabricated or true, this general looked upright and upright. Look.
At first glance, he is a general who is loyal to his duties and not afraid of powerful people. But if you think about it carefully, this matter is quite intriguing.
All the sergeants were hesitant, but they did not dare to disobey the general's order. Huang Yuan was about to give the order to rush into the mansion, when he suddenly felt a dazzling golden light in front of his eyes. Hearing a bang, a golden staff with red knots was inserted on the stone steps outside the door of the mansion.
, it actually went into the ground more than half a foot deep.
Tengjin was about to take action, when he saw this, he sneered and shouted: "The Golden Staff and the Red Festival are here, as if you are here in person. Why don't you kneel down and salute!"
General Huang Yuan was stunned, while the sergeant behind him had put away his weapons and knelt down. Then he heard a deep voice coming from the mansion: "Get out!"
General Huang Yuan put on an upright attitude and tried to forcibly search Huwa's residence under the banner of loyalty to the emperor. How could Huwa let him in? The young minister was sitting in the hall, and to avoid trouble, he simply threw him out
It was the Golden Staff and Red Festival. Now General Huang Yuan could no longer trespass, so he had to lead his team away in despair.
The young minister hadn't eaten yet, but he seemed to be full of anger. He didn't say anything for a long time. Huwa spoke first: "Someone really had to sacrifice his capital, and the spy who finally planted it in Batu City actually...
So exposed."
There is no general position of patrol general in a city, only in the capital city, and there is more than one. This position is not high, only enjoys four titles, and each has only a few dozen subordinates under its jurisdiction, but its responsibilities
It is very important. It is responsible for maintaining the daily security and order in the capital. There are usually more than a dozen patrol generals on duty.
Huwa judged that this Huang Yuan was either a spy that a certain force managed to plant in Batu City, or it was bribed by a certain force behind the scenes. The young man snorted coldly: "Exposing a city patrol general can provoke you and me."
It's worth it if you face such a conflict in front of everyone in the country!"
Why does Huwa think Huang Yuan is a spy? Can't he be a city patrol general who fulfills his duties and is not afraid of the powerful? Because the method he used to arrest the murderer just now was wrong. He ordered more than 20 sergeants to block such a large mansion.
Who can be held in front of the main gate?
Not to mention that the "murderer" might not be in the house, even if he was. He would have run away from the back door or the side when he heard the noise, and he would not be able to catch him. So Huang Yuan's purpose is obviously not to catch the murderer, but to rush into Huwa.
Search the mansion. If he succeeds, everyone can see that Ba Jun actually sent a patrol army to search Lord Peng Keng's mansion.
Even if Huang Yuan fails, conflicts can still be created. Mr. Peng Keng dared to refuse the law enforcement search of the city patrol army, and even asked the retainers to disobey orders. If such a thing really happened, I am afraid that the young minister would not punish Hu Wa, and
He still had to explain to Huwa that this was not what he meant; and in order to calm the situation, Huwa might also symbolically punish Fujikin.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these should be normal results, and the relationship between monarch and ministers will inevitably have cracks. But General Huang Yuan did not expect that the young minister was sitting inside eating with Huwa, and Huwa simply
Throw out the Golden Rod Red Festival.
Shaomiao said bitterly: "This Huang Yuan is really confident. He knows in his heart that even if he does this, the monarch will not be able to do anything to him, otherwise he may be criticized by his subjects."
Yes, on the surface, General Huang Yuan did not make any mistakes. He just enforced the law upright. He claimed that he had received a tip and came to search. If the murderer was not harbored in Lord Xuezheng's house, he could have cleared Lord Xuezheng. Afterwards, he reported to Lord Xuezheng
Just make an apology. Even if someone wants to pursue the case, he can always throw out a so-called "eyewitness" to excuse him. People always make mistakes.
Huwa frowned and said: "Conspiracy and sowing trouble, one after another, is really boring. The Lord doesn't want to be criticized, so let me be the villain. Isn't it just to force me to either fall out with the Lord or be alienated by suspicion?
? Then let it be as they wish! If my guess is right, rumors about me will spread in Batu City tomorrow."
…
The next day, rumors spread all over Batu City, and everyone was talking about the latest thing that happened in the Huwa Mansion. It was said that an eyewitness identified the Pan Yuan family as having sneaked into the Xuezheng Mansion, and Huang Yuan, a stupid young man, led people to arrest him.
, but was repelled by Master Peng Keng with a golden staff and a red knot.
There are some things that everyone knows, and even if Panhu is really hiding in Huwa's house, it would not be surprising. But Huang Yuan wants to expose it openly and embarrass Mr. Pengkeng, which inevitably makes people wonder whether there is something behind this.
With the monarch's instructions, the young minister wanted to use this to "beat" Mr. Peng Keng.
And Mr. Peng Keng's golden staff with red knot was actually used like this. After throwing it out, he stuck it outside the door and never pulled it out. As a result, everyone who passed by the door of his house had to bow down and salute. It was too arrogant.
Oh! Although Huwa has an amazing amount of power in the country, he has never used his power to gain power. Now this is the first time, and it seems that he is really dissatisfied.
On the third day of the court meeting, Mr. Peng Keng participated again. He walked there. When he went out, he pulled out the golden staff and the red festival, held it in his hand and walked towards the palace. People along the way bowed and knelt down. This scene also spread throughout the city.
.
When Huwa walked into the meeting hall of the court, the ministers hurriedly saluted when they saw the Golden Stick and Red Festival. At the same time, they were horrified. Some things cannot be taken out on such occasions. The Golden Stick and Red Festival was given by Ba Jun. Huwa
Holding it symbolizes taking care of things on behalf of the king, but now that the young minister is in the court, what does this mean to Mr. Peng Keng?
Does he want to take charge of matters on behalf of the monarch in front of the young minister? This is clearly out of bounds!
After Huwa sat down, the ministers were silent. The young ruler had to take the lead and said: "Sir Xuezheng, why did you go to court today with a golden staff and a red festival? Could it be that my behavior is wrong and you want to give me warning in public?
?”
Huwa turned the golden staff and the red knot horizontally, placed both hands in front of the monarch's seat and said: "My lord, yesterday I heard someone in the capital talking about the fact that I relied on the golden staff and the red knot given by your lord, acted unscrupulously, and used my power to exercise power. As a demonstration.
I am innocent and magnanimous, and I would like to ask the Lord to take this thing back today."
Oh, only then did all the ministers in the hall realize that Mr. Peng Keng was having a temper. He even said that he did not use his power to exercise power, and he had already tried to challenge the monarch in front of the court! Of course, with Huwa's cultivation status, he did use
If you don't accept this kind of idleness, what's the point of saying a few words to the monarch on weekdays? But then again, the Panhu incident is really too big.
The young minister quickly advised: "Master Xuezheng, are you referring to what happened the day before yesterday? There is a patrol army that wants to search your residence. That is a misunderstanding. I have ordered to scold the patrol general Huang Yuan. If Master Xuezheng still doesn't do it,
If he is satisfied, I will order him to apologize to you in front of all the courtiers."
Huang Yuan had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, and was brought up immediately. However, Huwa didn't even look at him, and still said to the young minister: "Misunderstanding? I have made great contributions to the country, and the Lord is just chasing rumors.
, did you order my residence to be searched? Even if Panhu’s assassination of Fan Kang was inappropriate, what crime am I guilty of?”
The young minister looked a little embarrassed and leaned over to explain: "I never gave such an order. This is the decision made by the patrolling general Huang Yuan." Then he shouted sharply, "Huang Yuan, how dare you do this!"
Huang Yuan knelt down and still acted like an upright and loyal minister: "I am not searching the residence of Lord Pengkeng, I am just searching for the key criminals ordered by the monarch. Someone reported that I saw Pan Yuan sneaking into Xuezheng's mansion with my own eyes."
Master Li Zheng said: "A search of Master Xuezheng's residence must be ordered either by the monarch or by my Li Zheng office. How can you do it without permission?"
Huang Yuan: "The matter is urgent. I am afraid that the news will be leaked and the criminal will escape, so I hurried away with my people. I am only loyal to the emperor's order and state affairs, but unexpectedly, Cheng Xiang has violated and offended Mr. Peng Keng. I sincerely ask Mr. Peng Keng to
My lord punishes me."
Lord Li Zheng asked: "Since you said someone reported it, who was the reporter?"
Huang Yuan: "It was a sergeant in the camp. He claimed that he saw Pan Yuan entering Xuezheng Mansion with his own eyes." It's really hard to say this kind of thing. That person can definitely claim that he saw it, and others can also say that he did.
I saw it wrong at the time.
Huwa ignored these and went to the young minister: "Master, someone told me the day before yesterday that Huang Yuan, the patrolling general, is an enemy spy. He has been lurking in Batu for a long time. He jumped out this time just to stir up trouble.
It chills the hearts of meritorious ministers."
Huang Yuan shouted loudly: "Master, I am loyal and loyal, but I have accidentally offended Lord Peng Keng. It is completely slanderous to say that I am a spy of the enemy country!"
Huwa finally looked at him and said: "Whether you are an enemy spy or not, of course I can't say it out of thin air. Someone has indeed told me so... It's not up to me to punish you. Today I just want to ask the Lord to give an order to capture you."
