Chapter 278 You Haven't Come to Court for a Day
Outside the Nangong, in the same restaurant.
Next to the private room where the Supreme Emperor summoned a group of nobles to discuss matters, in the private room that was also decorated, Hutong, Sucheng, Fan Guang, Li Xian, and Xu Ning, the commander of the Five City Military Command, were sitting or standing, with a solemn expression.
Su Cheng sat by the window, looking at the quiet night outside the restaurant, wondering what he was thinking about.
Finally, everything in the side room fell into peace, without a trace of sound.
Monitoring the alley opposite him breathed a long sigh and said in a low voice:
"Everything is gone, Master."
This room can monitor the sounds on the opposite side, but at the same time, the sounds on the opposite side can also be heard, so as not to let the other side hear the sounds on the other side, the monitor will not dare to speak.
Su Cheng had no choice but to look at Li Xian who was sitting next to him, and his tone was a little helpless:
"What do you think about Marquis Li?"
The gullies on the face of Li Xian, the Marquis of Fengcheng, were deep. After Yang Hong left, the old man's health became worse and worse. It seemed that he was not far from the year of destiny.
When Li Xian heard the person on the other side left, he opened his mouth, coughed a few times, patted his chest, and said to Su Cheng panting:
"Master, if there is such a thing, don't call me anymore, it can suffocate people to death."
As he said that, Li Xian sat upright, picked up the teacup and drank it twice, put it down and beat his legs again, and his tone was a little helpless:
"The Supreme Emperor, you always make trouble if you have something to do. During the fourteenth year of Zhengtong, he was chasing the Northern Expedition and trapped himself in. Now he forced a few more nobles to gather troops. Hey, what's that name... Hutong, what's the time they have?"
The alley hurried over and reported:
"Return to the Marquis, this is the second time we have heard it. Their conspiracy should have been four or five times. This is the second time we can hear it."
Li Xian looked at Su Cheng:
"They're not going to do anything, but how to report this matter, the Duke must be cautious."
Su Cheng nodded:
"What the Supreme Emperor did was unexpected and forced his subordinates to rebel. This is the first time I have seen such a thing. I will report this to His Majesty and make a decision."
As he said that, Su Cheng looked at Fan Guang and Xu Ning:
"The Beijing camp will behave as usual, but you must strengthen control. You notify Liu Jian that you cannot let one soldier out of the Beijing camp. If any soldiers leave the Beijing camp and are taken away by these nobles, please let Liu Jian be careful."
"The five cities of the military and horses strengthen patrols and pay close attention to the transfer of dead soldiers, servants and servants from various noble families. If there is any gathering, report it to me immediately."
Fan Guang and Xu Ning bowed to accept the order.
Sucheng looked at the alley:
"You guys did a good job. Although you didn't do it in the way I ordered you, you did a good job. Strengthen the control inside and outside the Nangong. Even if a pigeon flew out in the Nangong, you have to tell me whether it was a carrier pigeon."
Hutong bowed to accept the order.
After the few people dispersed, they left the restaurant from the back door of the restaurant. The shopkeeper of the restaurant was a bearded fat man with a small eye. He respectfully sent Su Cheng and Li Xian to the carriage.
Su Cheng slapped the horse and left, Li Xian lifted the curtain in the carriage, reminding Su Cheng:
"Mr., in the future, young horses are not good for their knees. You will know when you get old."
As he said that, Li Xian patted his thigh.
Su Cheng looked at the rear wheel of Li Xian's carriage and fell into deep thought. According to historical records, Li Xian was about to die this year. Unexpectedly, because of himself, he had lasted for a while.
...
The next day, Sucheng got up early.
After putting on the Duke's refurbishment, Sucheng ate some pastries, and rode out on his horse.
Since Su Cheng made the request, Zhu Qiyu's morning court time has obviously become late, and he is not as hard as before.
When Sucheng arrived, the sun had already come out, but the palace gate was still tightly closed, and the court officials had just begun to arrive.
"Mr. I'm here early today."
The voice of the Zhejiang Daozhangdao Censor Cao Tai sounded behind Sucheng.
Su Cheng glanced at Cao Tai. This boy was full of red face. This was a sign that he was going to be promoted again.
"Mr. Cao, long time no see you. Seeing you like this, you have been promoted again."
Cao Tai smiled and said with a smile:
"For the blessing of my grandfather, we performed well in this year's assessment."
The chief censor is above the Chief Censor. This is a leap from the seventh rank to the fourth rank, and a leap from the bottom of the court to the backbone.
The two of them talked for a while, and a group of ministers arrived one after another.
When Wang Wen saw Su Cheng, he smiled and said:
"I heard from Lao Wang that you have had a lot of trouble these days. Why, the Nangong person has started to make trouble?"
Su Cheng smiled and asked:
"Do you think he won't make trouble?"
Old Wang Wen shook his head, his tone helpless:
"Yes, our master, it would be too difficult not to make trouble."
As he said that, Lao Wangwen changed his mind and blamed Su Cheng:
"It's all your fault. If you don't get him back, there will be so many troubles."
Sucheng has no choice:
"If we don't bring him back, we will go to war with Mongolia in full swing, and the people will suffer, and you will be happy."
Wang Wen's chin raised upwards:
"Aren't you very good at fighting? Just kill them away. Just a thief, you can't help but fight."
At this time, the palace gate opened and the eunuch shouted:
"Auspicious time has come."
The officials began to line up and entered the palace one after another.
Su Cheng avoided Wang Wen's nagging, stood at the head of Wuxun's squad, made a gesture to Wang Wen not far away, and pointed to Wang Ji behind him.
Wang Wen frowned, glanced at Wang Ji invisibly, and continued to walk into the palace city. He was a little surprised, why did Wang Ji mess with Su Cheng?
Could it be that both of them are important officials of martial arts, Su Cheng can’t stand Wang Ji, the uncle of Jingyuan?
The civil and military officials entered the palace. Zhu Qiyu came late and sat on the imperial throne and began to pay tribute to him frequently.
Wang Wen began to report the results of the Ministry of Personnel's Beijing inspection. What happened in the middle, the dispatch of officials from various provinces, prefectures and counties. When mentioning promotion and demotion, different voices began to appear among civil servants, and the court became like a vegetable market.
Su Cheng whispered to Li Xian next to him:
"It seems to be a little late when I was in the morning."
Li Xian said in a low voice:
"It's all like this now. Your Majesty is not as diligent as before. The things that have been decided are dragged around. Look, Your Majesty has a heavy dark circle. It is designated that he played with those women in the School of the School last night."
Playing with the Jiaofangsi woman?
Su Cheng looked at Zhu Qiyu on the imperial throne in a daze. Indeed, the dark circles looked quite heavy and the spirit was also depressed. This was exactly the same as Emperor Jingtai who worked hard to govern the past few days.
Soon, the daily affairs of the six ministries' Censorate were reported. The following was when the departments and courts reported major events involving other departments and courts. Su Cheng suddenly left the court and stood in front of Danji.
"Your Majesty, I have a memorial."
Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting on the imperial throne, her eyes lit up, and her listless expression also became a little excited:
"Su Qing, I haven't seen you one day. It's not easy for you to have an early court last time. Tell me, I'll hear what you have to report."
The courtiers all looked at Su Cheng with great interest to see what he was going to do.
