1544. Chapter 1544 The Autumn Wind Sweeps the Fallen Leaves Nine
"Even if your achievements are overwhelming, you can't be greedy for military expenses." Jin Tianwei's tone was extremely cold: "In order to stabilize the morale of the military and give an explanation to the people of the world, I must severely punish Guan Yi and absolutely cannot tolerate it."
"Your Majesty, my sister Concubine Hua also admires Guan Yi very much." Seeing Jin Tianwei's firm attitude, Marquis Xuanwu could only move his sister out: "If the emperor deals with Guan Yi, my sister will definitely be very sad."
"Bang!"
Jin Tianwei slapped his palm on the table and stared at Marquis Xuanwu with cold eyes: "Are you using your sister to suppress me?"
"I don't dare!" Marquis Xuanwu shook his head hurriedly: "I am just stating the facts. I hope the emperor can look at my sister's face and forgive Guan Yi for once."
"Okay, very good." Jin Tianwei laughed angrily: "For the sake of a captain, you actually involve the noble concubines. Marquis Xuanwu, you are really capable. Believe it or not, I will deprive you of your title now and demote you to a commoner."
."
Marquis Xuanwu's face changed: "Your Majesty, please calm down. What I just said was indeed ill-considered. Please forgive me once." After saying this, Marquis Xuanwu knelt directly on the ground.
Jin Tianwei just wanted to scare Marquis Xuanwu. He could not really deprive Marquis Xuanwu of his title. No matter what, he would always give Concubine Hua face. Concubine Hua had served him with all her heart in these years, making Jin Tianwei's life rich and colorful.
It is no exaggeration to say that Jin Tianwei is really inseparable from Concubine Hua now.
Seeing Xuanwuhou being defeated, Xiongying was undoubtedly the happiest. He was looking forward to Emperor Long Yan getting angry and dealing with Xuanwuhou ruthlessly. When the time comes, Xiongying would not mind stepping forward and beating the fallen dog. Unfortunately, ideals are good, but reality is indeed cruel.
Yes, he knew Jin Tianwei very well. Although Jin Tianwei was very angry at the moment, in fact most of it was just pretending. As long as Concubine Hua lives for one day, Jin Tianwei cannot really make things difficult for Marquis Xuanwu.
To be honest, Xiong Ying really admires Concubine Hua. In the harem, Concubine Hua is not the most beautiful, her figure is not the best, and her family background is not the most prominent, but Concubine Hua can tie down Jin Tianwei.
In order to gain Jin Tianwei's eternal favor, this method is definitely not something ordinary people can do. A few years ago, the emperor even entertained the idea of letting Concubine Hua become the queen. However, there were too many princes and ministers who opposed it at that time, and the queen Zhou Ruyan's
His family background was also very prominent, and if he wanted to move Zhou Ruyan, it would probably cause quite a turmoil, so Jin Tianwei thought about it again and again, and finally gave up the idea.
Through this incident, Queen Zhou Ruyan hated Concubine Hua to death. She used many methods to plot against Concubine Hua, but in the end they all failed. She was even almost bitten by Concubine Hua. In terms of palace fighting, Concubine Hua was indeed better than Zhou Ruyan.
Talented, Concubine Hua has gained a lot of prestige in the harem these years. Most of the concubines have been taken care of by Concubine Hua, secretly or openly. They are all afraid of Concubine Hua to death. Even Zhou Ruyan is very afraid of Concubine Hua. There is a rumor in the palace that this
One sentence: Zhou Ruyan is the queen on the surface, and Concubine Hua is the actual queen! This sentence means that the power of the harem is almost controlled by Concubine Hua. Queen Zhou Ruyan seems to be unable to defeat Concubine Hua, but Zhou Ruyan also has her
Her advantage is that she has the support of many princes and ministers, which Concubine Hua cannot match. In addition, Zhou Ruyan's natal family is very powerful, and they secretly help Zhou Ruyan from time to time, which makes Concubine Hua a little shy and dare not do too much.
Too much.
After these years of development, Concubine Hua has basically taken control of the entire harem. Except for Queen Zhou Ruyan, who can barely fight with Concubine Hua, the other concubines all depend on Concubine Hua's face.
Naturally, Jin Tianwei couldn't hide these things, but he didn't ask. In fact, he didn't like Zhou Ruyan too much. With Concubine Hua standing by to shock her, Zhou Ruyan could restrain herself. Of course, Jin Tianwei couldn't really let him.
Concubine Hua is the only one in the family, and sometimes he will secretly support some concubines to fight against Concubine Hua. As an emperor, the best thing he is good at is the art of balance. As long as he masters balance, his throne will be extremely stable.
In fact, to put it bluntly, the emperor's mind is the art of balance. All emperors do not want to see their ministers working together. What they want to see is fighting and calculation. The more intense the battle between ministers, the happier the emperor will be, because
Only when all the ministers participate in the fight will the emperor's identity and power be highlighted. At this time, the emperor will reconcile the mud and prolong the battle between the ministers indefinitely.
Seeing that Xuanwuhou turned pale with fear, Jin Tianwei softened his heart a little. After all, Xuanwuhou was his brother-in-law and his relative. He couldn't be too harsh. Thinking of this, Jin Tianwei's face softened a little: "That's all.
Once, if it won’t happen next time, get up.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Marquis Xuanwu thanked him and then got up from the ground.
Sigh... There was a flash of disappointment in the eagle's eyes. After all, the emperor still couldn't bear to punish Xuanwu Hou. This scourge will probably go unchecked forever.
"Guan Yi's matter is settled like this. Don't ask for mercy again." Jin Tianwei waved his hand impatiently: "I'm tired and want to rest. You can go back if you have nothing to do."
Marquis Xuanwu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but after seeing Jin Tianwei's livid face, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. Now that Jin Tianwei was angry, it would be better not to provoke him. Thinking of this, Marquis Xuanwu acted honestly
He exited the Tai Chi Hall, and before leaving, he glared at the eagle, his eyes full of anger.
Damn you! You can't offend the emperor, so you vent your anger on me. What the hell! Xiongying yelled in his heart, sooner or later I will take care of you!
"Eagle." Jin Tianwei shouted.
"Your Majesty!" Xiongying hurriedly bowed and saluted: "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"Send these two memorials to the Ministry of Punishment, and then ask the Minister of Punishment to send someone to the Baihu Banner military camp to verify the situation. If the content of the memorial is true, Guan Yi will be executed on the spot, and his family property will be confiscated. As for his family... let the Ministry of Punishment watch it on its own.
Let's deal with it." Jin Tianwei couldn't convict him directly based on Ma Xiaoyao's words, so he assigned the Ministry of Punishment to verify the situation. There would be procedures and rules. Even Jin Tianwei, who was the emperor, could not do whatever he wanted.
"Yes, I will go to the Ministry of Punishment now." Xiong Ying strode away with two memorials.
…
Let’s talk about the situation of Marquis Xuanwu. After he came out of Taiji Hall, he was not in a hurry to leave the palace, but stood on the steps and meditated.
The emperor's path seems to be unworkable, and it seems that he has to ask his sister for help! The thought of being scolded by his sister gave Marquis Xuanwu a headache.
"Guan Yi, Guan Yi, you are really going to cause trouble for me. After I rescue you, let's see how I deal with you." Xuanwu Hou vented all his anger on Guan Yi. If Guan Yi stood beside Xuanwu at this moment,
In front of the lord, it is estimated that the lord Xuanwu would rush in and beat Guanyi severely.
What's wrong with the father-in-law? I've made Marquis Xuanwu angry, so I'll beat him! Otherwise, if I don't say that Marquis Xuanwu is a bastard, even my father-in-law would dare to beat him!
"Forget it, let's go to my sister for help. At worst, I'll let her scold her again. I'm used to it anyway." Xuanwuhou sighed helplessly, then turned around and walked towards the harem. All the guards in the palace knew him.
So there was no hindrance.
In this way, Marquis Xuanwu arrived at Concubine Hua's palace smoothly.
The palace where Concubine Hua lives is called "Liu Li Palace". It is a very grand palace, not much inferior to the Phoenix Palace where the Queen lives.
"Eh? Why are you free to come to my place today?" Concubine Hua looked at Marquis Xuanwu in surprise. Her younger brother was naughty by nature and was busy living and drinking every day. He had no time to come to Liuli Palace to visit Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua always
I really missed Xuanwu Hou, so I sent people to find Xuanwu Hou to enter the palace. Every time he entered the palace, Xuanwu Hou couldn't stay. At most, he would have a meal with Concubine Hua, and then leave in a hurry.
Oh, there is another exception. Every time when Marquis Xuanwu gets into trouble and he can't solve it himself, he will go to Liuli Palace and ask Concubine Hua for help. At this time, Concubine Hua will scold Marquis Xuanwu severely, and Marquis Xuanwu will
Then she drooped her head and pretended to be pitiful. After the reprimand, Concubine Hua would find a way to wipe Marquis Xuanwu's butt. She had no choice but to say that she only had such a younger brother. Even though she knew that it was not good to be too spoiled to Marquis Xuanwu, she still couldn't bear to ignore it.
.
"Sister... I haven't seen you for many days. I really miss you, so I took the time to come over today." Xuanwu Hou said with a smile.
"You really miss me?" Concubine Hua looked at Marquis Xuanwu with a faint smile: "Why don't I believe it?"
"I miss you so much! I swear!" Xuanwuhou raised his palms to the sky: "Sister, I can fool other people, but I will never fool you. You are my only relative in this world, and I
You brought me up with your own hands. In my heart, you are both my sister and my mother. I respect you very much. For you, I can go up to the sword and go down to the sea of fire. Even if I lose my life, I will never frown."
"You have a conscience," Concubine Hua said with a smile.
"Sister, I will have dinner at your place today."
"Well, okay, I will cook it myself later and make your favorite yellow croaker."
"Sister, besides coming to see you today, I also want to ask you for help with a little thing. It is a very small thing for you, and it can be solved as long as you say a word."
"The fox's tail is finally exposed, right? I know you will never come to my place if you have nothing to do." Concubine Hua frowned, seeming to be angry: "Come to me if you have anything to do, and disappear when you have nothing to do. You are really
My good brother."
"That's not the case, sister, you misunderstood, I do miss you..." Xuanwu Hou explained hurriedly.
"Okay, don't explain. Tell me, what trouble did you get into?" Concubine Hua asked.
"It wasn't me, it was my old father-in-law who got into trouble." Xuanwu Hou said depressedly: "I let him get killed. It's so depressing and it really doesn't let me worry."
