Chapter 252 The Might of the Military God
In the 24th year of Daxia Chongning, on February [-]th, there were still three days before the beginning of Chunwei.

This was the last court meeting before the Spring Festival. Three days later, when the Spring Festival began, everything was settled.

Therefore, if you want to see the outcome in court, today is the last chance.

The so-called Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng will destroy it, and Xia Jingyun's strength since he entered the capital has made visionary people from all factions pay attention to him, and now he can be severely damaged, which is something that no one refuses.

Especially when I faintly feel that His Majesty doesn't seem to have any intention of sheltering me, I feel more at ease!

These people were all guessing the possible direction of today in their hearts, but on the surface they still followed the rules of the court meeting honestly and proceeded item by item.

Just as the court meeting was halfway through, the Jinwu Guard on duty outside the gate came to announce, "Report! Your Majesty, Duke Fengyang is asking to see you."

!!!

Discussions erupted in the main hall, and the leaders of various factions immediately arranged the corresponding tasks skillfully with their eyes.

Emperor Chongning neither surprised nor happy nor angry, said lightly: "Xuan."

Gao Yi raised his voice, "Xuan~Fengyang Duke~see you!"

The old Patriarch of the Qin family walked slowly into the hall under the anxious or curious eyes of everyone.

Emperor Chongning ordered, "Give me a seat."

Gao Yi raised his voice again, "Give me a seat!"

"Old minister thanks your majesty for your grace."

When Xiaohuangmen moved a stool and asked the old Patriarch Qin to sit down, Emperor Chongning said with a half-smile: "Why does Fengyang Gong enter the palace? Are you dissatisfied with the progress of the case?"

The old patriarch of Qin stood up again, knelt down slowly, took out a memorial from his arms, and held it high above his head, "I implore your majesty, for the sake of the country, pardon Xie Yuan Xia Jingyun of Sishui Prefecture to be released from prison to participate in the scientific examination. If it is found guilty afterwards, all honor will be deprived, and if it is found innocent afterwards, then there is no need to lose the pillar of the court because of the Qin family's personal affair!"

As soon as this sentence came out, the whole hall was shocked.

Everyone looked at the old man in disbelief. Previously, Concubine De was invited by the Minister, and the Three Masters of Tushan came to the door, and Concubine De wrote it herself. Now, victory is about to come, you raised the flag and surrendered, how about playing?
Wei Yuanzhi, Wang Ruoshui and a few officials of the concubine's line were ecstatic after being dumbfounded, and retracted their hands into their sleeves to hide their trembling hands.

"Stay flat, hand me the booklet."

Emperor Chongning didn't see any joy or anger, but just said something in a flat tone.

Gao Yi walked down quickly, took the booklet, and went up to the high platform to present it to Emperor Chongning.

And at this time, the person who caused the trouble seemed to arrive as promised.

As expected of being from a family of military generals, the Duke of Yingying did not ask for help when things happen, and he rolled up his sleeves and went to battle in person, and said in a loud voice: "Mr. Fengyang, you entered the palace that day to beg for orders, and you were the one who asked His Majesty to severely punish Xia Jingyun. Now the case is under trial. At the critical stage, you are the one who wrote to request the release of Xia Jingyun, what do you mean? Do you treat the court as nothing, the law as a child's play, and your majesty as a marionette?"

To him, it doesn't matter what schemes are surrounding the Qin family, but the important thing is that Xia Jingyun must "die"!
In just over half a year, he had already tasted enough of being suppressed and plotted by Xia Jingyun, and he must not let Xia Jingyun successfully escape unscathed in such a situation of "death"!
However, the old Patriarch Qin, who had been prepared for a long time, did not panic at all, and said: "Your Excellency's words are wrong. When I came to the palace to see you, what I asked was to punish the murderer severely, not this Mr. Xia. Today, I am pleading for him. Don’t you want to abandon righteousness through selfishness, if it is not the real murderer behind the scenes, so the abandonment of Chunwei is not to sit back and watch the country lose this good talent?”

"Mr. Fengyang's words are wrong!"

An official of the prince's line stepped out of the queue and bowed his hands at him, "My Great Xia dominates the Central Plains, covering the whole world, and there are so many talented people in all directions. How can he rise to the level of a country's talent so easily because he is a Jieyuan in Sishui Prefecture?" The level. Duke Fengyang doesn’t need to worry about this, it’s his own fate if he bumps into this matter, compared to such an ordinary scholar, the assassination of Young Master Qin of your residence is a more important thing.”

"Then, my lord, have you ever thought about it, if you were the scholar who ran into this matter, would you still be able to say such things in such a calm manner?"

The old patriarch of Qin sighed, and cupped his hands towards Emperor Chongning who was on the stage, "The old minister's family has done a lot of business, and they know how to gather sand to form a tower, and gather armpits to form a furry. Gathered together, it doesn't matter if there is one less here, and it doesn't matter if there is one less there, when no one can wake up, it will be too late."

A purple-robed officer under Prime Minister Qin also walked out of the queue, "Mr. Fengyang, there is its own charter for investigating the case. Although it seems that there is no progress at the moment, perhaps it has reached a critical moment, and his will is about to collapse. If the suspect is arrested at this time Let it out, let it recover, and then eliminate the key evidence, it will be hard to find the real culprit of this noble family's revenge!"

Patriarch Qin was taken aback by Zheng, and said: "Just let him go to participate in a spring! The old minister believes that the officials of the third division will not make such mistakes."

When the prime minister Qin Weizhong came out, looked at him, and said in a gentle voice: "Uncle Shi, who threatened you? You had to do this against your will, so that there was a contrast between words and deeds, and it was hard to say. Now in front of you Your Majesty, you might as well speak out boldly in front of the princes of the Manchu Dynasty, if you don’t say anything else, your majesty is just and strict, and will not cause you to be wronged in vain, and you are of the same family as you, let alone sit idly by."

When Wei Yuanzhi heard this, it was worth it, and he was unwilling to give up this great opportunity, and was about to bolster the courage of the old Patriarch Qin, but just as the soles of his feet moved, the voice of Emperor Chongning came from the high platform.

"enough!"

Emperor Chongning snorted softly, and threw the booklet in his hand on the table, with a displeased expression on his face, "It's a good court meeting, I'm so annoyed by the noise!"

Everyone quickly bowed and saluted.

"Let's put that matter aside and talk about something interesting."

Emperor Chongning smiled, "Last night someone from the bamboo grove sent me a piece of calligraphy, I thought it was very good, and it was sent by the old army god, so I should share it with all the nobles! "

"Gao Yi, show it to everyone."

As Emperor Chongning said, he picked up a scroll on the table and handed it over with both hands. Gao Yi hurriedly held it in both hands, walked down the high platform carefully, stood still on the second step, and slowly opened the scroll, as if holding it in his hand. The movement of the demon mirror is shown to everyone.

When they heard that it was sent by the old military god, everyone couldn't help being curious, even Ying Gong and Qin Pang, who were standing in the front row, couldn't help but move their feet and moved over, so frightened that Gao Yi couldn't help it. Shrunk back.

"Hiss! This word, what a good word!"

"Elegant, sharp, and strong! The structure is rigorous, and it is comfortable and restrained! It is different from any school in the world. It has its own style, and everyone has style!"

"What kind of words are you looking at? Please taste this text first!"

"Looking at the sword with the light on while drunk, dreaming back to the company of blowing horns, hiss!"

When everyone saw it, they all understood, this is definitely the calligraphy that everyone presented to the old military god!

But why have you never heard of this poem?

Could it be that it was created by a master of calligraphy and a great talent in the literary world?

That is an absolute treasure!
Everyone then looked down.

"Eight hundred miles under the command of the fire, fifty strings turning outside the fortress, autumn soldiers on the battlefield! Although there are some things I don't understand, the momentum is really amazing. Even a literati can feel the menacing momentum in it. The author has definitely been to the frontier. experience, and even personally experienced bloody fights!"

[Lu Feikuai made by the horse, his bow is like a thunderbolt! 】

"Fix the king's affairs in the world, and win the fame before and after his life! Isn't this the old military god!"

Everyone's heartbeat also surged with enthusiasm, and then they all fell silent under the obviously different font of the last sentence.

"It happened for nothing!"

The crowd was silent.

That's right, the person who once turned the tide and helped the building to collapse, the old man who can give all the monarchs and subjects of the Great Xia a sense of security as long as he stands there quietly, has gray hair now .

He fought south and north and swept the world, and he was no longer able to protect this huge empire.

This pitiful sentence is not only lamented by the poet, but also lamented by the old military god himself.

And why aren't they those who are directly or indirectly under the protection of the old military god sighing.

After a while, someone finally said softly: "These last five characters are bold and majestic. Although they are not proficient in calligraphy, their style and temperament are clearly revealed, and their writing is fluffy and their wrists are not strong. They must have been written by the old military god himself. book?"

"In front of this picture, someone else described the magnificent life of the old army god. It ended with the end of the king's affairs and won the fame before and after his life. In the end, the old army god added the last five words. His tone changed. Bring out the endless vicissitudes and desolation, the beauties are late, the heroes are gray-headed, wonderful, wonderful!"

"From the perspective of skill, the five characters written by the old army god are naturally insufficient, but combined with its background, it is even more wonderful than this calligrapher writing all by himself!"

"Handed down famous post, passed down famous post!"

"Fuck!"

Amidst all the sighs, in this court hall full of Huang Zigongqing, someone suddenly made a vulgar remark.

In the eyes of everyone, the person quickly pointed to the lower left corner of this post and explained: "Look at the signature!"

Everyone looked subconsciously.

The vulgar words rang out one after another.

I saw a line written in the lower left corner:

[Pozhenzi. Song presented to the God of War, written by Xia Jingyun, written in the bamboo forest at the end of Chongning's 23rd year. 】

Wei Yuanzhi and Wang Ruoshui's hearts were suddenly filled with overwhelming surprises!

As expected of a young master, he was able to make a comeback like this!
Qin Xiang and Ying Gong thumped their hearts together, and finally fully understood why today's incident happened.

The reason why Fengyang Gong changed his mind must be because of Zhu Lin's request, oh no, it was an order to be precise.

And in their eyes, what decision will His Majesty who thinks he will not shelter Xia Jingyun make next, needless to say?

The old Patriarch Qin snorted in his heart, didn't he force you to ask me just now?Do you still question me?Do you still want to stop me in the name of upholding justice for me?
Come on!

Who will jump out again!

The old military god just sent a letter to me, and a letter to His Majesty, so that you don't dare to jump around!

Then again, this damn child, you have such a big hole card, you should have said it earlier, I will rush to promise you my good granddaughter, why are we spending so much time on it!
When everyone had different thoughts, Emperor Chongning coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention, then leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile:
"My dear friends, do you think this painting is good?"
