Chapter 464: The Prime Minister is dismissed again, and the news spreads
At this moment, everything in the court was quiet!
Shi Hao and Zhang Jun's hearts sank to the bottom. It was obvious that Tang Si retreated this time well prepared.
First, let’s start with the first crime. If no one talks about it, that’s fine. However, once it is publicized, His Majesty can only punish it.
However, this first crime is not what the two of them are worried about.
Although this matter is difficult, it may not be impossible.
At least, Zhang Jun can be confident that Bian Xi will step up and replace Shen Tang.
Moreover, it is actually difficult to say who gave the order on the battlefield.
Although Shen Tang did speak, after all, Shen Tang was not the commander-in-chief, so as long as Bian Xi was willing to stand up, Shen Tang's guilt would naturally disappear.
But Zhang Jun knew that Tang Situi's real killing move was the second crime.
Support the troops privately!
This is definitely a challenge to His Majesty's tolerance! Before Shen Tang was elected, he was nothing but a white body. Even now, he was only given the official position of Zuoshi Langzhong.
However, these two official positions have nothing to do with the military.
Moreover, this kind of thing does not need to be verified at all. All it takes is suspicion in His Majesty's heart, which is enough to erase all of Shen Tang's achievements.
On the dragon throne, Zhao Shen looked gloomy! He naturally knew the name of Wei Jun.
Moreover, this matter really surprised him. The Beiwei Army was actually in the hands of Shen Tang?
The atmosphere in the court hall was extremely depressing. After a while, Zhao Shen suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice, "Shi Hao, Xuan Shen Tang is coming to visit us immediately!"
After that, he left the dragon chair and walked towards the back of the main hall.
However, just when his figure was about to disappear, his steps suddenly stopped, "Right Prime Minister, I heard from Wang Quan the day before yesterday that the Prime Minister is ill?
I was also negligent because the right prime minister was already weak and now he is already sixty years old.
Anyway, although I am reluctant to part with you, the king and his ministers will eventually gather and disperse.
The right minister will retire and return to his hometown tomorrow to take a good rest!"
Zhao Shen's cold words caused an uproar in the main hall! The ministers did not expect that Zhao Shen would directly dismiss a phase in his anger.
You know, deposing Xiang Xiang is a big deal, but Zhao Shen just issued the order so lightly?
If it were something else, Zhao Shen would naturally not be like this.
However, this time Tang Situi really caused Zhao Shen a huge loss of face! It even posed a huge problem for him, which almost made Zhao Shen go crazy on the spot!
In the main hall, Tang Situi's face turned pale, with shock and confusion all over his face.
He had calculated various consequences, but he did not expect that Zhao Shen would directly ask him to retire and return home! Although being demoted is not necessarily an unacceptable thing, this matter exceeded his expectations.
After a long while, Tang Si Tui slowly prostrated himself and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, Tang Si Tui takes this order to thank you!"
He stood up with a bit of loneliness and walked out of the hall alone. At this moment, the sun was shining, but his body was cold! Not to mention that Shi Hao and others looked on coldly, even the people who were good friends with him did not care about this matter. Step forward to give him the last breath of relief.
The matter of how Shen Tang should award the reward was naturally delayed.
However, even if Shen Tang was really punished, His Majesty would already have a grudge against Tang Si Tui in his heart.
Perhaps, in the future, other leaders of the Lord Harmony Sect will come to the throne again, but if there are no accidents, it will be extremely difficult for Tang Sihui to return to the court!
The tea cools down after the person leaves! In fact, there is no need to wait until the person leaves, but now, the bowl of hot tea originally served by the right minister is already completely cold.
The turmoil in the court soon spread. Under the secret promotion of the nobles and Zhu Zhuo and others, Shen Tang's two crimes were publicized. For a while, many people gathered together and started to demonstrate. ! Moreover, the people of Lin'an gathered outside the palace and shouted in unison for Zhao Shen to punish the executioner who killed the people! Many people from other state capitals also gathered at the state capital after learning the news, with the purpose of getting this person The executioner lay low.
Not long ago, Shen Tang, who was a hero of the Song Dynasty, became a sinner of the Song Dynasty almost instantly.
Foolish people! Foolish people! Sometimes, these seemingly innocent people are actually not innocent! They don't know the truth and can only become tools in the hands of certain people.
Loyal ministers who were forced to death or hated by the people were not uncommon in history, because the truth that these people saw was often just the truth that some people wanted them to see...
A fast horse rushed into Lianli City!
"Who is coming!"
The soldiers guarding the gate come forward!
"Snapped!"
The knight on horseback threw down a token, "I am Zhang Xin's envoy. I have something urgent to ask for, Lord Shen!"
Of course, the guard guarding the gate knew Zhang Jun's token and immediately moved the city gate. However, the knight did not dismount, but directly hit the horse and rushed towards Shen Tang's mansion.
In the house, they are busy preparing for the birthday banquet! In two days, it will be Shao Xun's birthday, so Shen Tang and others naturally have to prepare in advance.
"Master, a messenger from Lord Zhang Jun has come, saying that he has something important to do and needs to meet with the master immediately."
Qian Hong came in a hurry and said to Shen Tang.
Shen Tang put down the pen and paper in his hand and said to the three women beside him, "You guys stay here, I'll come back as soon as I can."
"My husband, go away."
Liu Xiangling nodded, and then the three girls gathered together again to discuss what kind of birthday greetings they should write to Shao Xun!
Shen Tang followed Qian Hong and came to the guest room, only to see a man waiting with some anxiety.
When the man saw Shen Tang coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "I am the envoy of Zhang Xin. Mr. Zhang has an urgent message to convey to you."
With that said, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Shen Tang.
Shen Tang hung up the paint on the envelope, took out the letter paper, and then looked at the letter.
In about a quarter of an hour, Shen Tang finished reading the letter, and his face was already solemn! The letter naturally contained what happened in the court. Shen Tang did not expect that Tang Si Tui and others were like poisonous snakes in the dark. Staring at himself, and at this moment, he gave himself a fatal blow.
This time, if you handle it well, you can still get through it, but if you don't handle it well, your future will definitely be cut off.
Although Shen Tang doesn't care much about the so-called future and awards, but as Shen Tang thought before, he is no longer alone. If he can only retreat into the mountains and forests at this time, what will happen to Liu Xiangling's three daughters? That would be unfair.
Although, maybe they don't care what official position they hold.
"call!"
Shen Tang took a deep breath, and then said to the man, "Strong man, please wait a moment. I will write a reply and take it back to Prime Minister Zhang."
