Since there is no news about Xiao Han, Xue Pan and the others are not in the mood to listen to the fat chef. Oh, it should be the thin chef talking about his experience now.
Looking up at the vast mountains in front of him, Li Shimin whispered to his men to send him to Chang'an, while the others continued to search in the forest.
After leaving the crowd, Xue Pan walked forward in despair. She had hardly slept these days! Every time she discovered something, she was always the first to come, but every time, she was deeply disappointed.
The sky was a little gloomy, and people who knew the weather well said that there would be wind and snow in the next two days. When I thought of the heavy snow closing the mountains, Xue Pan couldn't stop crying.
"Xiao Han, are you okay?"
In the Qinling Mountains, there are still many people looking for Xiao Han.
But scattering these people in the vast mountains and forests is not enough to see them! All they can do now is to search along the ancient road, but no matter how deep they are, they don't have that ability.
Compared with the search team in Qinling, the court in Chang'an was already in turmoil at this time.
Some of the ministers were dissatisfied with the emperor's decision to send three guardsmen to search for Xiao Han in the Qinling Mountains!
Especially Xiangcheng Hou, who had already formed a relationship with Xiao Han, was jumping up and down these days and was very busy.
"Your Majesty, the catastrophe in the Qinling Mountains is due to the wrath of God! Someone must have disobeyed God and caused this catastrophe. If we blindly trace the source, it will inevitably lead to another natural disaster. I sincerely request the Holy Spirit to mobilize the troops and horses, leaving only
The Ministry of Industry personnel will just restore the post road!"
In the majestic palace, the red-robed Marquis of Xiangcheng spoke impassionedly, and his words were full of concern for the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty!
However, only people who are familiar with it know that when the news of Xiao Han's disappearance reached Chang'an, the unsmiling Marquis of Xiangcheng booked Cuixiang Pavilion for a night of carnival!
"This wild boy is finally dead! The anger I have been holding in for a year finally comes out. God, you are not blind!" These were the exact words said by the Marquis of Xiangcheng after he got drunk that night!
Also, he lost almost all his face with Xiao Han, so much so that he couldn't even come to court to take care of his illness! Now that he heard that Xiao Han was in trouble, he was so happy that he couldn't even sleep these days, and he wanted to let him go immediately.
Li Yuan withdrew all the search and rescue personnel, leaving no thought for Xiao Han!
After Xiangcheng Hou Yi Zheng finished speaking, the atmosphere in the court suddenly became strange.
No one immediately stood up to object, and no one agreed. Most people just secretly looked at Li Yuan who was sitting on the dragon chair. Unfortunately, Li Yuan was crowned with a crown and Zhulian, and no expression could be seen at all.
The fat Changsun Wuji was standing in the ranks of civil servants, his face a little blue.
He knew that the Marquis of Xiangcheng deliberately chose today to launch an attack!
As of today, Xiao Han has been missing for more than ten days, and there is still no news! It is impossible for people's hearts to remain uneasy!
Moreover, most of the people in the court who are friends with Xiao Han are now in Qinling. Apart from him, there are probably not many people who can argue for a person who will probably never appear again! If Li Yuan really listens to Tianwei, he will
If all the people are withdrawn, the hope of Xiao Han's safe return will be even smaller!
Looking at the Marquis of Xiangcheng coldly, Changsun Wuji tightened his grip on Beban and was about to get out of the queue, but unexpectedly, a rickety figure slowly walked out behind the official.
"Ahem... Your Majesty, I have something to say."
As soon as the slightly old voice came out, the ministers in the court immediately turned to look at the old man who had almost no impression.
It was Li Yuan who personally entrusted him, and he searched in his mind for a long time before he remembered that this person was indeed in the court meeting!
But how could this Qingshui Yamen official, whose name he couldn't even pronounce, stand up in such a situation?
This question was not only surprising to Li Yuan, but also to the others.
Everyone knows that although the Tang Dynasty stipulates that officials of the fifth rank and above have the obligation to go to court, those at the back like the old man are all here to accompany him! Why is there an outstanding rafter today? Or an old rafter
…
"Qing family, please speak." Li Yuan's voice came from the high hall, and there was no fluctuation in the cold voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The old man who stood up cupped his hands towards Li Yuan, and then his expression suddenly became awkward.
He suddenly remembered that when reporting in court, he needed to wear a banban! But he never spoke at court meetings, so naturally he never brought a banban with him, so he even forgot about it.
It’s definitely too late to borrow it now! This Xiao Han’s sleeping partner in the court, the legendary elder of the three dynasties! The first time he spoke in the court in front of all the civil and military officials, he made a mistake:
"Ahem, I think that the power of heaven claimed by the Marquis of Xiangcheng is too illusory! If you give up the search and rescue of my ministers of the Tang Dynasty just because of such a statement, it will be a chill to the hearts of all the ministers in the world."
I don’t know if it’s because he’s not polite, but the old man speaks very slowly, but the meaning behind his words is very clear!
If there is a car in front, there will be a rut behind!
No matter what the reason is today, as long as you don’t save the Marquis of Sanyuan County! Then if anything happens to you in the future, you can weigh it yourself and see if the imperial court will save you!
It was impossible for those monkey officials to not understand what the old man said, so as soon as he finished speaking, there was a slight discussion among His Highnesses.
"Yes, if we go out on business in the future and there is a flood and a mutiny occurs, is it possible that the imperial court will also stand by and watch?"
"That's right! If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just say God's will. Then you don't have to do anything and wait for God to help you. The key is that God knows who you are?!"
Whispers gradually started to sound. When Xiangcheng Hou heard this, he suddenly became panicked and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I'm not saying that I won't save Xiao Hou. It's just that we have been searching for many days since the accident in Qinling Mountains, but we still haven't found anything! I think
The chance of Xiaohou's survival is already very small. Leaving three guards and horses in the Qinling Mountains is too much of a waste of national effort. Our current national strength is not abundant..."
"What Xiangcheng Hou said is inappropriate!"
Changsun Wuji saw that the Marquis of Xiangcheng was eager to defend himself, and knew that it was time for him to step out.
He held Wu Ban in his arms and bowed to Li Yuan first, then straightened up and said loudly: "We in the Tang Dynasty govern the country with benevolence and filial piety, and teach our subjects with loyalty and justice! Not to mention that we should have a sense of protection for our colleagues, let's just say that in this city of Chang'an
, how many people have not received Xiaohou’s favor?
In the past few years, every winter, carbon poison was raging! This poison is extremely vicious, and often an entire family dies when it appears! But since Xiao Hou made the carbon stove, how many cases have happened now? And his courage
Break into the plagued area and solve the crisis of a city! Making armor, crossbows, and even salt and cement have now become indispensable assets of our Tang Dynasty! Such a talented person, you can't bear to see him suffering in the Qinling Mountains
struggle?"
What Changsun Wuji said was simply heartbreaking! It made other ministers feel a little sad, too, why should we give up on someone who is so beneficial to the country and the country?
"It's impossible to say that he died early..."
Amidst all the sighs, the voice of the Marquis of Xiangcheng was particularly harsh.
Now not only Changsun Wuji and the elders of the three dynasties looked at him angrily, but even several of Xiao Yu's steady ministers couldn't help but frown coldly at him.
"Your Majesty, I impeach the Marquis of Xiangcheng! This person takes public action to avenge himself personally. Not only does he have no mercy for his colleagues who are in desperate situation, but he also adds insult to injury! I will stand with this kind of person who has shortcomings in virtue and be deeply involved in the court.
