Emperor Qianxi raised his hand and sighed softly, "Okay, you two, stop arguing. I'm letting you speak freely, not asking you to quarrel. If you attack each other in the court, it will be dirty. What will happen if it spreads out? Decency?"
Upon hearing this, the two of them said in unison, "I know my guilt!"
Emperor Qianxi waved his hand to indicate that the matter was over. The two raised their heads and glared at each other before reluctantly returning to their original positions.
Emperor Qianxi glanced at him and said casually, "In view of the suggestions of the two beloved ministers, do you have any other comments?"
Yang Tinghe struggled for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, I agree with Master Gao's proposal. In the past years, our government gave Da Mang so much money and goods, wasn't it just for the sake of peace between the two countries? In these years, for the sake of border stability, the people will not be displaced. So, after paying so much, if things deteriorate at this time, wouldn’t it mean that all the hard work has been wasted?”
As soon as Yang Tinghe finished speaking, a voice sounded, "Your Majesty, I object."
Ling Yun took a closer look and saw that the person who came out was actually his cheap master, which surprised him.
Li Chengyou has never been involved in court disputes. In his own words, the water in the court is too deep, so he can stay silent in the early morning court. He should try his best not to say anything unpleasant and suffer revenge from villains.
Emperor Qianxi was overjoyed and said in surprise, "Oh? What does Li Aiqing think?"
Li Chengyou glanced at Dongfang He and said slowly, "Your Majesty, although I don't understand the affairs on the frontier, I still think what Master Dongfang said is reasonable. Kill people to pay for their lives and debts to pay for their debts. This has been passed down from ancient times. The truth is, our dynasty has always governed the country in accordance with the law. To be honest, if the emperor commits a crime, he is as guilty as the common people, let alone the reckless envoy."
Li Chengyou glanced at all the ministers, his expression was a little solemn, and he said with a sad face, "Everyone, do we want to change our laws for an outsider? If we set a precedent for Da Mang, then we will violate the laws of our dynasty. Where? Once this happens, will the people still believe in the punishments of our court?"
Then he looked at Gao Anxiang, with a half-smiling expression, and pointedly said, "Master Gao is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, I don't think you don't understand the rules of handling things in accordance with the law, right?"
When Ling Yun first heard it, why did he feel like there was a smell of gunpowder?
Could it be that he, a cheap master, has some grudge against Gao Anxiang?
Ling Yun's thoughts were running wild, but the debate in the court continued.
The two parties quarreled again, supporting Dongfang and being obviously at a disadvantage. Looking at Li Chengyou who was about to be drowned in saliva, Ling Yun couldn't help but want to rush forward to help.
Finally, Ling Yun couldn't hold back his temper and walked out from the corner, looked at Emperor Qianxi, and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
"Um?"
Emperor Qianxi frowned and stared at him. He probably didn't expect that Ling Yun was so bold and dared to stand up and speak.
Noticing Ling Yun coming out, Gao Anxiang shouted loudly, "Bold, are you suitable for people? In the Jinluan Palace, without His Majesty's permission, you, a sixth-grade Hanlin Academy editor, dare to stand up and speak privately. Do you know your guilt?" "
When Ling Yun saw that the person speaking was Gao Anxiang, he immediately disliked him. Just when he yelled at his master, he barked the loudest as a dog, which made him unable to help but stand up and speak.
Ling Yun leaned slightly to show respect. After all, no matter how much he disliked Gao Anxiang, he was also a second-rank minister, so he still had to behave as he should.
"Master Gao, Your Majesty hasn't spoken yet, so why are you so eager to jump out and shout? Is it possible that Master Gao is more majestic than Your Majesty?"
[Author's digression]: I'm sorry!
I owe you one update today and will make up for it tomorrow.
I was too tired from the car ride and couldn’t concentrate enough. I wrote and deleted on my phone, deleted and wrote again... I can only do this for now. I hope you can forgive me.
