Turbulent Times Chapter 460: The Battle of the Court (Part 1)

(Thank you very much for the generosity of 'book friend 18672397' for another 15,000 coins. Thank you very much. I will always take time to add a few more to show my gratitude.)

Suddenly felt someone approaching, and then was patted **** the shoulder, Wang Junlin came back to his senses in an instant.

"Above the court, why do you look absent-minded, be more energetic." Han Qinhu patted him on the shoulder and said.

Yang Lin, the backer king, curled his lips and said: "Old man Han, you still have the face to say that this kid, when did you go up to court without yawning, or even leaning against the pillar without taking a nap?"

Chang Sun Sheng next to him watched the two bickering with a wry smile on his face.

"Old prince, General Han, General Changsun..."

Wang Junlin bowed his hands one by one to the veterans as juniors, and he dared not neglect them in the slightest.

"My own people, don't be so polite!" Han Qinhu waved his hand and said.

Wang Junlin has made outstanding military achievements one after another, no less than these old fellows, and he has the most important military achievements in the army. He also defeated the Turkic people. Such a great achievement, which fell on others, is enough to directly confer the title of Duke. Women, or war horses, are the most important to soldiers. Even the emperor of the opponent, such humiliation is unbearable, let alone the King of Han.

So, when the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty were all thinking that Wang Junlin was so bold that he dared to lead people to beat the King of Han, only these generals in the army saw the cause of this incident, and they also defended Wang Junlin.

In addition, because of Han Ziliang's relationship, Han Qinhu has always regarded Wang Junlin as his nephew. As for Changsun Sheng, needless to say, he and Wang Junlin have a feeling of sharing weal and woe when they are sent to the Western Turks. The backer king Yang Lin simply looked at Wang Junlin pleasing to the eye, and also admired Wang Junlin's invincible ability on the battlefield. In addition, as a member of the royal family, he did not want such an outstanding general in the army to be dismissed. The King of Han was harmed by such a dude.

Therefore, the three founding veterans and military chiefs deliberately came to support Wang Junlin before going to court in full view. Instead, Pei Shiju didn't come over for some reason.

"You boy, what you did this time is very appetizing to the old man. The old man used to sit in the northern camp in Taiyuan and knows the character of the King of Han. What you are doing is actually what the old man wants to do!"

Wang Junlin was quite moved after hearing Han Qinhu's words, because what Han Qinhu said was very bold. Even if the emperor listens to revenge, he will definitely not like it.

Changsun Sheng did not look at Wang Junlin like Han Qinhu, and said solemnly: "No matter what the reason is, the nature of beating the prince is extremely serious, not to mention that he is His Majesty's most beloved son. After a while, I am afraid that many people will stand up to impeach you. Remember not to be tough. The more you retreat and the more humble you are, the more you will be able to dispel His Majesty's anger. The few of us originally wanted to speak to you, but I know very well that at this time, if we old fellows speak for you, but with His Majesty's character, it may be counterproductive. However, we have secretly arranged some people to defend you at critical moments."

"Thank you three old generals, this junior understands." Wang Junlin said gratefully. He suddenly discovered that by beating the prince, he could also test his relationship with some people in the court by the way. , is the truth.

These three veterans may seem rough, but in fact they are careful, and their love for him is not even half a lie, but he actually has no interest relationship with the three veterans.

The three veterans gave a few words of advice and then left. Then Fang Qiao, Wei Yunqi and other thirteen officials from poor families came forward to greet them one by one. This is a very normal behavior, after all Wang Junlin was kind to them, and everyone in the world knew that this kind of greeting in full view would not cause any problems.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the old emperor Yang Jian slowly appeared from the back of the palace.

The current emperor is originally an extremely diligent emperor. Since the day he ascended the throne, except for some major celebrations, activities, and physical reasons, the morning court has been almost continuous. But this situation gradually changed after the death of Empress Dugu, especially after Yang Jian's health became worse and worse, occasional delays in going to court or not going to court due to physical discomfort became more and more frequent.

As usual today, several senior officials from the three provinces and six ministries made a brief report on the affairs in their hands, which is actually no different from a meeting at a certain level in later generations.

Seeing that there was nothing important to report, Sui Emperor Yang Jian glanced at the thick pile of memorials to impeach Qin Anhou Wang Junlin, flipped through a few of them casually, his eyes were somewhat inexplicable, but his expression was exhausted, Said: "Regarding this matter, what do you think, let's talk about it."

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Qin'an came to the street and beat up the prince of the dynasty in full view. Such behavior is really too bad. If the punishment is not severe, what is the face of the royal family, what is the face of your majesty! "A middle-aged official stood up and said righteously.

This person is the Ministry of Rites, besides Pei Shiju, another minister of the Ministry of Rites. In addition to being in charge of education and diplomatic affairs, the Ministry of Rites is also responsible for maintaining all matters related to the country's laws and regulations.

Of course, there is another more important reason for the Minister of Rites to stand up.

His surname is Yu, and since Yu Zhongwen's death, he is now the Guanlong Yu clan with the largest official position in the imperial court. Because of Wang Junlin, the Yu clan's power and financial resources have shrunk so much, it can be said to be very important to Wang Junlin He hated it to the bone, so he made a lot of preparations last night, and when this matter finally started, he was the first to jump out.

"Young Minister Yu is right. The Marquis of Qin'an, Wang Junlin, committed the crime and seriously injured His Highness the King of Han in front of countless people. He must be severely punished!" Another official stood up and said.

"Yu Shilang and Mr. Zhou are right!"

"Qin Anhou must be severely punished!"

"Second minister!"

…

…

As soon as he stood up, more than a dozen officials covering three provinces and six ministries expressed their agreement to second the proposal, and then most of the imperial historians from Yushitai came out to impeach and remonstrate. The caliber of these people was surprisingly unified. One after another, they scrambled to express their opinions, and they all expressed one meaning-Wang Junlin was guilty, a felony, and a crime of deceiving the emperor, and he should be executed.

Today's matter is not like arguing about other things. Hundreds of officials have different positions, and the quarrel is raging like a raging fire. Everyone who stands up today condemns Qin Anhou Wang Junlin.
