Prison cars were sent to Guocheng one after another. Inside, they were all descendants of the Huang and Du families of Dongping City.
Huang Zhifeng, the head of the Huang family, is the head of the family after all, and he is old. No matter how evil he does, he is still an old man on the verge of death. He must have the dignity he deserves. Even Chu Qing must abide by this.
Chu Qing, who was kind-hearted, made some explanations and asked the decent Huang Zhifeng to replace Huang Qiusheng, who was on the cross pile and didn't know whether he died of starvation or freezing. He faced the sea and continued his dignity.
"Look, he's as thin as a wolfdog." Chu Qing looked at Huang Zhifeng, who was barking: "He must be hungry. Let him be free after ten days. By the way, at such an old age, do you need preferential treatment? Feed him every day.
Five pounds of fish bones. His teeth are not good, so don’t bring any fish meat, otherwise he won’t be able to chew it.”
All the children of the Huang and Du families, which have been inherited for more than a hundred years, were arrested.
Chu Qing was very satisfied and continued to wait patiently. More and more prison vans would arrive, and more and more heads would be sent to Beijing.
But Chu Qing didn't know that everything in Beijing was already in chaos.
At this time, in the political hall of the capital, Huang Laosi was sitting on the dragon chair, and the officials were noisy.
The matter has been determined, Chu Wensheng has rebelled.
Not to mention Huang Laosi, even Qin Gang, the spokesperson of the Ministry of War, has a look of defeat on his face. In the past half month, he seems to have aged more than ten years.
In addition, he was criticized by civil servants every day when he went to court.
It was not because of his friendship with Chu Wensheng, but because of his own doing.
Before Chu Wensheng left Beijing, Qin Gang had to squat down and tell Dahuang when he saw a dog on the road. My son is now following Chu Wensheng. How about it? Envy or not, jealous or not, hahaha.
Chu Wensheng rebelled. Qin Lie, the third oldest member of the Qin family, followed Old Chu. Now there are 100% two states. One, he followed Chu Wensheng and became rebels together. The other, he refused to follow Chu Wensheng and let Old Chu stab him.
Die to death.
So everyone thought that Qin Lie must be a thief.
Qin Gang still has to be blamed for this. In fact, at the very beginning, except for the generals of the Ministry of War, the civil servants did not know that Qin Gang and Chu Wensheng had such a good relationship. If they had known, so many civil servants would not have made things difficult for Chu Qing when he first debuted.
Chu Mansion.
As a result, he got involved with Chu Qing, and Qin Gang always said how nice he was with the Chu family when he saw people.
So the question is, since he is so good with the Chu family, can Lao Chu kill Xiao Qin? The answer is no. If he doesn't kill, then he is a thief. Since the younger ones are all thieves, then you, the old Qin Gang...
Therefore, Qin Gang was criticized, and the civil servants found an opportunity.
Ever since they learned about Chu Wensheng's rebellion, these civil servants woke up from their dreams laughing.
The first thing they thought about was not the chaos in the border areas and the unrest in the country, but the first thought was...it was a damn relief. Two years, two whole years. You know how we civil servants have spent these two years.
Well, the Chu family, you are finished, even Pangu can’t protect you, my civil servant said so!
Not only Qin Gang, but other military generals were also dumbfounded.
They had no room for argument. Chu Wensheng forcibly recruited troops and then lost the battle. Knowing that he could not escape the blame, he rebelled directly. In less than a month, he almost broke through Xunyang Road.
Apart from anything else, everyone is inevitably thinking that you are nothing but a thief. If you beat one of our own people, you are so quick. It takes almost three to five days to build a city and cross the Xunyang Road.
There is a mountain of irrefutable evidence, the city has been captured, the thieves are powerful, and they have attracted almost all the aristocratic families. How can Qin Gang and the generals of the Ministry of War respond?
What everyone is arguing about now is not Qin Gang, but Chu Qing.
Liu Shaowei, the newly appointed minister of Taichang Temple, looked like he had a moral responsibility on his shoulders and made a strong statement.
"Your Majesty, we can't delay any longer. Send troops to Xunyang to defeat the ministers. At the same time, we will capture Chu Qing of the East China Sea. If we delay it any longer, the consequences will be disastrous."
Huang Laosi's voice was extremely hoarse. As the emperor, when he opened his mouth, his voice was full of weakness.
"Chu Wensheng...Chu Wensheng is Chu Wensheng, but Chu Qing..."
"His Majesty!"
Another inspector knelt down and said, "How come your Majesty still believes in Chu Qing so much now? The old minister suspects that the unfavorable outcome of the battle was all premeditated by the old thief Chu Wensheng for a long time. Since it was a premeditated plan, he wanted to come to Chu Qing."
Qing…”
Before I finished speaking, the point was clear. If a family rebels, if the father rebels, the son must also rebel, one in the east and one in the north.
Another group of courtiers stood up. This time, no one hesitated, and they all knelt on the ground.
In addition to the Hubu and the Dali Temple, officials from the six temples and nine temples came out and knelt on the ground.
These civil servants looked worried about the country and the people, but many of them were overjoyed in their hearts.
What can be done by rebelling, the most is the destruction of the country, as long as Chu Qing can be killed, everything is worth it!
The most important thing is that everyone does not think that Chu Wensheng can lead his troops to the capital, cross the Xunyang Road, and even occupy two border crossings. Even if it is three, it will be considered that Chu Wensheng has a strong fist, and he will be counted as a dozen if he is full.
Two hundred thousand people.
In a situation like this, as long as the imperial court issues an order to recruit troops, it will be able to assemble at least 500,000 troops in two months. When the troops come back, they will eat and drink as they should.
Huang Laosi sat on the dragon chair, thinking of the scenes he had spent with Chu Qing, bit by bit, and closed his eyes slightly.
"Your Majesty." Liu Shaowei looked as if he was about to cry: "We can't delay it any longer. If Chu Qing in the East China Sea raises his flag to rebel, we, Dachang, will be attacked from both sides."
"Yes, Your Majesty, you must stop being messed with."
"I think what Mr. Zhou said is reasonable..."
"I second the proposal..."
"I second the proposal..."
"I second the proposal..."
"I am also a water person... No, I am also streamlined and seconded..."
Huang Laosi finally spoke, but it was just a whisper.
"Impossible...impossible...impossible..."
He unconsciously said it was impossible. The more he said it, the louder his voice became. The more he said it, the brighter Huang Laosi's eyes became.
"Absolutely impossible!"
With almost a low roar, Huang Laosi glanced at the ministers with his tiger eyes, and his voice was extremely firm: "Chu Qing will definitely not rebel against me. Everyone in the world will rebel, but Chu Qing will not!"
The civil servants all wanted to curse. They didn't know where Huang Laosi had the confidence to say such a thing.
Huang Laosi took a deep breath: "He promised me, I will live up to him, and he will not betray me!"
The ministers no longer want to curse, they want to laugh.
First of all, you are the emperor, okay? You made an agreement with your ministers. You are confused. How did you come up with these words?
Secondly, there were so many rebels in history, and most of them were people whom the emperor trusted. If he didn’t trust them, he wouldn’t give them the right. They had no rights and no capital to rebel.
Huang Laosi said nothing about Chu Wensheng, as if he had already confirmed that Chu Wensheng had betrayed him. It would be meaningless to be more certain. The facts were in front of him, but he wanted to protect Chu Qing, no matter what.
Chu Qing, because he knew that Chu Qing would not rebel, he would definitely not rebel, not that he would not rebel, but that he would not betray him, Chang Chengyou!
It has nothing to do with what happened, it's intuition, it's a matter of course, it's just like eating and sleeping. He knows that Chu Qing will not betray him. There is no reason, no reason, but he knows that it has nothing to do with whether he is Tianhuang nobleman or whether he has grown up.
It doesn’t matter if he is the princess’s son, because he is Huang Laosi, because Chu Qing is Chu Qing, because no one of them will let anyone down, and no one will betray anyone!
Standing up, Huang Laosi said very firmly: "Even if Chu Wensheng has rebelled, Chu Qing will definitely not do it. If you want me to arrest Chu Qing, do you have any evidence of Chu Qing's crime?"
The civil servants were convinced, but this was a bit unreasonable. If there was no evidence of guilt, his father had rebelled, so it was reasonable to arrest him.
"His Majesty."
Liu Shaowei, the minister of Taichang Temple who was the first to jump out, said earnestly: "Chu Wensheng's crime was to punish the nine tribes. This... what kind of evidence does this require?"
It provided an idea and pointed out a direction. The civil servants understood the spirit and immediately started shouting, "Yes, yes, that's the truth. Regardless of whether Chu Qing rebels or not, Chu Wensheng is his father. Kill the nine tribes."
, as long as Chu Qing can die, anything will work.
Sun An smiled bitterly in his heart.
Fortunately, the fourth child did not announce the true identity of Chu Qing to the world.
Huang Laosi has already decided.
Even if he is ridiculed by the world and criticized by all the scholars, he must save Chu Qing. In this world, the only one besides himself can save Chu Qing.
Seeing that the fourth child was about to act up, someone walked out of the household and slowly knelt down on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I think that Mr. Liu is right in saying that Chu Qing should not be arrested but killed!"
Some people are the protagonists as soon as they open their mouths. They obviously took the script of supporting roles, but they became the protagonists, such as Qiu Wanshan, the right minister of the Ministry of Finance.
