The setting sun moves much faster than the rising sun in the east. Just now it was only slightly tilted in the sky, but now only half of it is still hanging on the horizon.
The wind picked up again outside, and countless clouds moved with the wind, covering up the last rays of the setting sun, making it chaotic and hazy.
"I, remember how good you are!" Zhu Yunxi looked out the window and spoke slowly, "Since I came to the throne, I have not given you any rights or status. I think that you are my blood relatives, my own family, and my most important people in the world.
Someone you trust.”
"But..." Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly at this point, "My trust has now become the basis for you to bend the law for personal gain. Don't quibble with me about such a big thing as writing a note to the General Soldier of Datong.
Don't say you don't know the stakes."
"I just don't understand. Are you short of money?"
"Your Majesty, I cannot absolve myself of the blame for the death of these ministers, but my loyalty to the Emperor can be demonstrated, Your Majesty!" Chang Sheng and his brothers kept kowtowing.
Chang Sen, the Marquis of Huaiyuan, said, "Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say. I don't want to explain it. My second brother really doesn't know about this. The little beast wrote to me at the beginning, saying that it was at the request of his colleagues. I thought that he was in the army.
When I was on duty, it would be difficult to move forward without good popularity, so I was blinded by lard and wrote a letter to the General Soldier of Datong..."
"That's enough!" Zhu Yunxi interrupted sharply, "Good popularity? You are my mother clan. Do you think the commander-in-chief of Datong is doing it for the sake of your Chang family?"
He suddenly felt haggard in his heart. The Chang brothers still didn't know what was wrong.
Anyone in the world can fool him, but the people he trusts the most can't, and his blood relatives can't. He doesn't want to be a good old man and fool the emperor, and this country and the world don't allow him to be a good old man and fool the emperor.
"Pass the message!" Zhu Yunxi said to the outside.
After waiting for a while, Qi Lin, the Imperial Attendant who was on duty at Qianqing Palace today, quickly came in from outside.
"Draw up the decree!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Now, the general of Datong Town will be taken to the capital immediately, and the deputy general will be in charge of military affairs."
"I obey!" Qi Lin responded, turned around and went out to prepare.
"Wait!" Zhu Yunxi called out to him.
"Draw up another decree and ask Kunming General Chang Yuan to take it back to Beijing immediately without delay!"
"According to the order!"
Suddenly, Li Jinglong, who was kneeling, spoke loudly, "Your Majesty, please wait!"
Zhu Yunxi looked over, and Li Jinglong kowtowed, "Your Majesty, there is going to be a war in Yunnan soon. General Chang Shen was among the generals planned by the Fifth Army Governor's Office for the expedition, and now he is suddenly taken back to Beijing. Outsiders don't know why, and there are bound to be rumors in the army.
Rumors...."
"Is a person who only knows how to exchange his family's power for his own interests worthy of fighting? Can he win the war?" Zhu Yunxi said angrily, "Huh, when I put him in the Yunnan Army, I thought he would have a few years of experience and become a man of strength.
But now, he has not achieved any military success, but is in a high position to seek personal gain. He has not yet become a man. If in a few years, I give him a title and an official position, he will not be able to go to heaven? "
Li Jinglong suddenly did not dare to speak anymore and lowered his head.
"Your Majesty..." Chang Sheng wanted to speak, but Zhu Yunxi glared back.
Then, Zhu Yunxi sighed, "You don't need to explain to me, go home." After saying that, he paused and said, "Go back and reflect on yourself. When will you figure it out, when will you know where you went wrong, come back to me.
say!"
Although the Chang brothers were martial artists and their minds were far inferior to Li Jinglong's, they still knew the meaning of these words.
Chang Sheng kowtowed, "I will go back and hand over the military talisman, and then go home and think about my mistakes behind closed doors!"
Chang Sen also said, "It is not a pity that I and others deserve to die for their crimes, but Long Live Lord, you must take care of your dragon body and never let yourself get angry."
Zhu Yunxi didn't speak, but waved his hands a little tiredly.
He doesn't want to talk about favors, but who can live beyond the word favors?
What's more, these are his biological uncles. Now it is extremely merciful to remove them from all official positions and let them go home to think about their mistakes.
As a superior, today's punishment is also for future reuse, and today's reprimand will not stop them from doing anything.
The Chang brothers got up and left in despair. Only Zhu Yunxi and Li Jinglong were left in the hall.
"Get up and answer!" Zhu Yunxi said.
Li Jinglong quickly stood up, lowered his hands and half bowed and stood cautiously.
"The Emperor has taken Datong General Soldier and Chang Yuan to investigate the matter thoroughly? If we follow the root of the two of them and investigate, maybe we will bring out other things? In this way, this case will be even bigger.
, it involves not only the King of Zhou, but also the noble military officials..."
His mind was in turmoil, and he had no idea for a while.
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi spoke softly, "Come!"
"Huh?" Li Jinglong looked up, full of confusion.
Zhu Yunxi pointed to the cold noodles on the table and said, "Eat it!"
"This... I obey your order." Li Jing quickly picked up the dough piece and put it into his mouth in big mouthfuls.
The completely cold noodles do not taste good in the mouth and are a bit hard to chew.
Zhu Yunxi didn't say anything, just watched Li Jinglong slurpingly eating.
After the other person finished eating, he put the bowl down and then said, "Are you full?"
Li Jinglong didn't know why, but he responded more and more carefully, "Go back to the emperor, I'm full!"
"No matter how rich you are, a meal is no more than a bowl of noodles, a bed is no more than three feet wide, and death is no more than a pit!" Zhu Yunxi looked at him, "I have racked my brains to make money. Can I take it with me when I die?"
"I also know that the more money, the better, but a gentleman loves his money in a wise way. Some money will be spent and his life will be gone! Some money will not be spent, and retribution will come!"
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Li Jinglong's forehead.
"You should go back too!" Zhu Yunxi said.
"Just let me go back like this?"
Li Jinglong was puzzled and saluted, "I'll leave first!"
"Well, remember to hand over the errand tomorrow." Zhu Yunxi lowered his head and picked up the memorial on the table.
Li Jinglong's heart skipped a beat and he asked subconsciously, "Long live Lord, would you like me to hand over...?"
"I will keep the title of Minister Coordinating this case for you. Mr. Cao Guogong gave it to you, so I will also keep it for you." Zhu Yunxi waved his hands impatiently without even looking at him.
Suddenly, Li Jinglong felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he didn't even know how he got out of Qianqing Palace.
The emperor's intention is that the Minister of the Lifanyuan is gone, the errands of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies are gone, and the official positions of Shangzhu Kingdom, Prince Shaobao, General Jianwei, and Dr. Ronglu are all gone.
Everything he had worked hard for half his life was gone overnight.
"Why am I so unlucky?"
Li Jinglong only had this sentence in his mind and nothing else.
He walked forward in fear and wandering, like a walking zombie without any life at all.
"My lord, this is your way!" the little eunuch leading the way said in a low voice.
"Oh!" Li Jinglong came to his senses and realized that if it hadn't been for the little eunuch's reminder, he might have gone in the wrong direction.
Immediately, he hurriedly felt in his sleeves and took out a fifty-dollar tiger-head silver note, "Thank you, little father-in-law, take this for tea!"
Fifty silver dollars, the tiger head ticket that can be redeemed immediately is particularly eye-catching.
The little eunuch swallowed his saliva, then smiled and said, "The Duke of the country has killed me!" He said, taking a half step back, "I don't dare to ask for this money!" Then he added, "I'm afraid it will cost me my life."
