Chapter 560: Do you support it or not? (Please vote for me!)
There are two rows of court rooms outside the Meridian Gate, which were originally places for ministers to wait and rest before going to court. The east court room was for civil servants and the west court room was for military attachés.
Later, as time went by, it was used for meetings, especially the east room.
The officials participating in the court trial today include officials from the cabinet and the hall, as well as representatives from the six departments and thirteen roads. There are friendly troops, enemy troops, and people who are between friends and foes.
But no matter which side, there is no plan in mind today.
Because no one knew what Lin Tailai was thinking, they could only act accordingly.
Lin Tailai's tall and majestic body stood at the door of the east-facing room, which seemed to be blocked so tightly that even no light could penetrate.
I don't know why, but a huge sense of oppression came over me. This feeling of being blocked was really insecure.
Lin Tailai said hello to everyone: "I haven't seen you for more than a month, but your demeanor remains the same!"
Then he asked Song Hui, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, "Song Shu! Among you gentlemen, who is the main force today?"
There are dozens of members of the Qingliu force. No matter how talented he is, Lin Tailai, he can't guess who's turn will be the main force today.
"Get out!" Song Qi responded concisely and concisely with a dark face.
Today, the eunuch Chen Ju, the eunuch Bingbi, who represented the emperor, did not want to see the drama turn into a farce, so he said: "Let's start!"
Everyone knows that Eunuch Chen is here today to ask questions on behalf of the emperor who is too lazy to go to court, so he has the highest status.
Eunuch Chen took out the memorandum that offended the emperor. After reading it once, he asked Lin Tailai:
"Did you personally write and present this memorial?"
Lin Tailai replied: "Yes."
Eunuch Chen asked again: "It's not someone else who pretended to be someone else, or was it someone who was deceived by someone else?"
Lin Tailai replied: "I did it myself. There was no impostor or deception."
Eunuch Chen then said to the courtiers: "Important! Lin Tailai has no king, no father, no courtesy as a minister, leave it to the ministers to discuss his crime!"
Immediately, Li Xianke stood up and said righteously: "What Lin Tailai said in the memorial is the language of the country! I sincerely ask the emperor to adopt it and don't blame the remonstrating ministers!"
Zhong Yuzheng, a member of the Li Keqi Committee, also spoke: "God's warning comes true in the Holy Virtue. Lin Tailai gave his advice. What crime is there?"
Lin Tailai glanced at the two people who were the first to speak, and he understood clearly.
It seems that the main export force of Qingliu forces today is Etiquette, one of the six subjects, which can be considered a professional counterpart.
Others only thought that this scene was really magical. The general of the Qingliu force actually defended his mortal enemy Lin Tailai.
But it is also understandable that this is "political correctness".
It is impossible for the Qingliu forces to sit back and watch Lin Tailai be punished for his remarks, otherwise the political foundation will collapse, and they have to show off no matter what.
Immediately, the courtiers spoke one after another. Regardless of whether they were former enemies or friends, they almost unanimously supported Lin Tailai.
At least for now, this seems to be the safest position.
Eunuch Chen was stunned, as if he was angry, and shouted loudly:
"The emperor has summoned you here to plead guilty to the arrogant and rude Lin Tailai! Not to exonerate him! Do you want to openly defy the decree?"
Li Xianke responded to the matter in the Li Ke Du: "Advising the emperor with loyal words is actually a virtue of the subjects. What is the crime?"
Eunuch Chen refuted: "Even if we put aside the memorial, isn't Lin Tailai not guilty at all?
He fled back to the capital from Xuanfu Town without permission, committing a major crime of desertion! Why did you turn a blind eye?"
??????55.??????
Li Xianke argued: "It was a mistake to appoint Lin Tailai, who was outspoken in admonition, as a pawn, and it should not have happened!
Under this premise, Lin Tailai's public crimes as a criminal should be forgiven!
And deserting the army falls within the scope of public crimes, not private crimes such as murder and arson!"
Chen Ju: ""
Damn it! The Qingliu forces are really good at arguing!
Most people really can't beat them, unless they meet Lin Tailai on the other side.
Thinking of this, Eunuch Chen turned to look at Lin Tailai, aren't you going to take action?
If the current rhythm and trend continues, you, Lin Tailai, will be completely on the opposite side of the emperor.
Then don't even think about getting the emperor's pardon, and the Jinyiwei Official School is waiting outside the imperial court door, and may send you to hell at any time. If you are sent to hell again, it will not be Xizhimen!
Suddenly, the tall and majestic Lin Tailai shouted anxiously: "You guys, stop arguing! It's all my fault!"
Everyone: ""
Is the new authentic Suzhou Biluochun green tea on the market this year?
Lin Tailai said to Li Xianke again: "Li Shiyi! I have violated the power of God. I know that my sin is serious and I am willing to accept punishment!"
You don’t have to defend me anymore to avoid harming yourself!”
What else could Li Xianke say? Of course he pinched his nose and said: "You are guilty of speaking out. Anyone with a righteous heart should defend you to the end!"
Although Lin Tailai is a bad person, his remarks this time must be supported.
Lin Tailai said in pain: "I can't bear to see you resisting the decree and causing you to be punished!
You can just plead guilty to me. It’s not my first time anyway.
Last time in the palace, Mr. Wang Shanyin Pavilion took the lead in trying to convict me of my crime, didn’t I survive it too?”
Old Wang Jiaping of the Little Transparent Pavilion who has been trying to hide in the corner today: ""
The Qingliu forces cursed together in their hearts, this nonsense can't be revealed, can it?
Lin Tailai turned to Eunuch Chen again and said sincerely: "That day when I was meeting with you in the inner palace, I was dragged out of the palace before I could even finish my speech.
So I have always felt regretful. After witnessing the disaster, I decided to fill in the gaps and express all my thoughts."
Zhao Zhigao, the old servant of the Ministry of Personnel, suddenly stood up and said, "Since disasters have been mentioned, I have a few words to say!"
Everyone was surprised that Zhao Zhigao kept a low profile most of the time in the court and rarely made public appearances.
Then I heard Zhao Zhigao continue to say: "The court is unfair to Lin Tailai!
The previous punishment was unfair, and the subsequent expulsion was even more unfair! There were even disasters!
It is still unfair to discuss the crime now! And the source of all injustice is Ge Laowang Shanyin!"
Everyone is in an uproar. A candidate who is qualified to join the cabinet publicly denounces a cabinet minister. What does it mean?
Wang Jiaping in the corner was furious. Zhao Zhigao finally stopped pretending? Didn't you hide your ambition to replace yourself?
Just fight, I'm afraid you won't succeed!
Zhao Zhigao added: "In my opinion, this disaster is also related to Wang Shanyin!"
Li Xianke hurriedly controlled the situation and said: "This court meeting is about Lin Tailai! There is no need to digress!"
Zhao Zhigao pointed at Lin Tailai and asked Li Xianke: "Do you support Lin Jiuyuan today? Do you support his memorial?"
Li Xian couldn't take back what he just said, he could only say: "Of course I have to support it."
But after saying that, I felt vaguely uncomfortable!
