Realizing that they had been exploited by Lin Yanjun, Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu knelt down one after another and apologized sincerely: "I am guilty, please forgive me for your majesty and ancestors."
"A crime?"
Yin Enci's eyes were full of sarcasm: "How dare you, the Ai family, you two are the emperor's uncles and important ministers of the imperial court. Now that you are bullying the emperor and seeking his bad luck when he has just ascended the throne, the newly born important member of the Ai family will
The grandson and the great-granddaughter have not even met their father at this moment. The granddaughter-in-law is trapped in Langzhou City and is being bullied by a group of underlings, and you are already encouraging each other to start calculating your own personal gains. You are indeed a good leader of the Yin and Ji families.
, the emperor’s good uncle.”
"For betraying the trust of our ancestors, my nephew deserves death."
Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu were so ashamed by Yin Enci's words that their faces turned red and they did not dare to look up again.
"Nan Zhi girl, she is a good girl. She is pregnant and still wants to share the emperor's worries and benefit the people. Ask yourselves, in the past few years, no one in the government has been as generous as her. She is either nepotism or looking down on others.
Dishes, today’s civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty have a few wine bags and rice bags that are not from the noble family.”
Yin Enci angrily rebuked: "No one who can be relied upon at the critical moment is useful. On the contrary, those poor children selected by Nanzhi girl have become the mainstay, relying on them to cut down the cloth, conquer the Yanzhi, and resist the Rong and Di.
, Reforming the official system has long been an urgent matter, but you are still pedantic and want to continue to maintain the old system. Do you really have to watch the empire fall in this dynasty before you know how to repent?"
In the year of Yin Sinian, although Ji Huaishu looked down on those children from poor families from the bottom of his heart, since the emperor went north, those who had made the most contributions to the imperial court were indeed the humble low-level officials who were promoted along with Lin Jinxiao.
Li Ce's Northern Expedition lasted only a month before he was defeated. The two tribes of the Yan branch, Xu Jinzhou, and He Ying even made the Rong and Di tribe shrink back. Zheng Huan took over Yizhou and changed the whole state in just one or two months.
What a look.
Thinking of this, both of them sighed sincerely: "What our ancestors taught us is that it is our incompetence that has delayed important affairs of the imperial court."
Although Yin Enci is angry on the face, she also knows in her heart that all these years have been due to the Ji family. The younger members of the Yin family have helped her to stabilize the situation in the court. These words are just to spur them on, and they will never really do it.
They took the blame and resigned.
After all, we still have to rely on two families to stabilize the situation in the court.
Looking at the angry Lin Jinxiao with a heavy look, Yin Enci deliberately directed the conversation to him:
"Emperor, the Yin family and the Ji family are the eldest nephews of your mother-in-law and uncle's family, but it concerns the country, and the Ai family will definitely not show favoritism. You will stay in the court if you need it in the future. As for those who
You can deal with Xiao Xiaowuwei who does not respect the laws of the court and bullies others by yourself, and there is no need to ask the Ai family for instructions."
Lin Jinxiao could tell that his ancestor wanted to keep the grace of upholding the Yin and Ji families to himself.
Speaking of the Yin and Ji families, although they had some flaws as officials in the court over the years, they were still loyal to the court. Without the support of these two aristocratic families, the empire would have been buried in the hands of the Tang family.
He is not someone who crosses rivers and burns down bridges. What's more, Lin Jinshu, Ji Rongheng, Ji Cen'an and other descendants are working hard to kill the enemy on the front line. Yin Liuxuan is still left alone in Luyan Port to guard the south of the Yangtze River for him. It can be said that he is doing his best, and he will not do it because of
The two elders said a few words against the New Deal and wanted to be held accountable.
Slowly walking forward, he helped Ji Huaishu and Yin Sinian up one after another, and said with sincerity: "One of the two uncles is the brother of the mother-in-law, and the other is the nephew of the imperial grandmother. They are both pillars of the imperial court.
How can I bear to punish you despite your hard work and no merit for the imperial court these years?"
As he said that, he glanced at Lin Yanjun fiercely, and his voice turned sharp and said: "Whether you are motivated by selfishness or instigated by others, I will not pursue today's matter any longer. Please also ask your two uncles to remember what happened today."
If so, go back and tell the two families that most of the relatives are sharing the worries of the imperial court, and that the country is here, and those deliberate calculations end here."
Yin Enci was quite satisfied with her grandson's handling, and nodded happily, but did not forget to make an insinuation: "You must remember that this is the emperor's grace to the two clans. The emperor trusts you as elders, so you should be more cautious.
Work for the country and don't just do it for your own selfish desires. How is this different from Tang Yao and Yang Runchen?"
"We must bear in mind the religious teachings of His Majesty and our ancestors, serve the country diligently, and support the New Deal."
In the year of Yin Sinian, Ji Huaishu replied gratefully.
"Go down."
Yin Enci impatiently dismissed the two of them. When she looked back at Lin Yanjun, her eyes were filled with anger and disappointment, making her almost breathless.
She has committed such a crime, and it is unforgivable for her to be spared by the national law; but after all, killing her is the flesh that fell from her own body, which is really a dilemma.
Yin Enci was well aware of Chang Yanjue's position in her grandson's heart. Looking at her grandson's fierce eyes that wanted to kill the eldest princess immediately, she realized that he could not be allowed to do this kind of execution of an elder after all.
After pondering for a long time, she first ordered: "Hai Da, since the emperor wants to go to Langzhou in person to take the queen back to the palace, you should be prepared to set off with him quickly. You must take good care of the emperor along the way. Don't do anything.
Something went wrong."
Although Lin Jinxiao was thinking about the queen and her children at this time, his hatred for Lin Yanjun made him reluctant to move.
Looking at his ferocious face and eyes as deep as cold pools, Lin Yanjun only felt horrified.
Shaking his body tremblingly, Lin Yanjun pretended to be calm and said with a smile: "Does Your Majesty still want to kill his own aunt? Even if the slave family is at fault, it is indeed for the sake of the safety of the empire and the country. Could it be that Your Majesty just wants to kill his own aunt?"
Aren't you afraid of being criticized verbally and writtenly, so that King Beibin will have more reasons to attack you?"
She moved Lin Tingyan out at this time, which undoubtedly made Lin Jinxiao even more angry. He looked at the Emperor's Sword that fell on the ground and kicked it up suddenly. A bright light flashed by. He had already held the hilt of the sword and pointed it directly at Lin Yanjun's neck, and said sternly
: "If I don't get rid of you personally today, how can I have the face to meet the people of Langzhou, and how can I have the face to face the heroic spirit of my mentor?"
But at the moment when the sword blade struck in the air, Yin Enci blocked the edge of the sword with his crutch and shouted with all his strength: "Emperor, she is your aunt, the sister of your father and compatriot."
After saying this, he quickly urged Hai Da'a: "Please hurry up and ask the emperor to leave the palace."
Hai Da'a looked at Lin Jinxiao who was motionless in embarrassment. The sharp sword in his hand was even more frightening.
"The Aijia will give you, the people of Langzhou and your mentor a satisfactory explanation."
Yin Enci shouted bitterly in a sonorous tone, and then Lin Jinxiao put away his sword and stepped out of the Hall of Cultivation of Heart with heavy steps.
Seeing that terrifying face disappear before his eyes, Lin Yanjun finally breathed a sigh of relief secretly.
Lucky stroked his chest and complained to Yin Enci in fear: "Mother, my son and I have made mistakes. I will definitely change my past mistakes. I am willing to resign from all positions and stay with my mother to serve her with peace of mind."
With tears in her eyes, Yin Enci picked up the crutch that fell on the ground and walked slowly outside the palace.
After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but turn around and look at his only bloodline with tearful eyes. He choked with sobs and sighed: "It's all the Ai family's fault. They indulged you mother and daughter, making each one more arrogant than the other."
After sighing, he threw out a few words: "Give me Bai Ling and send the eldest princess back to her home."
Then he stepped out of the Yangxin Hall resolutely.
