Chapter 201 If Su Zhixun could kill his wife, there is nothing he can't do.
A look of pity flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he picked up the wine jug beside him and took a big gulp of wine.
Sit in the chair again.
Looking at Lan Xuanji's portrait, he muttered to himself:
"I don't know whether I love you or I'm angry because I can't have you. I just want you to watch the Su family fall, and make you kneel on the ground and beg me to spare the Su family."
"I will not kill you, but I will demote the women of the Su family to official prostitutes."
"If you die, should I convict Su Zhixun first?"
Du Yue, who was waiting outside, did not expect the emperor to be so crazy. What on earth had he experienced to become so crazy? He knew that living with the emperor was like living with a tiger, and the current emperor might go crazy at any time.
The emperor felt dizzy.
Lately I have been feeling increasingly heavy, as if there is a huge rock pressing on my chest.
I also like drinking ice wine more and more.
He came out barefoot.
The bra was half open, revealing a patch of skin. "Du Yue, can you ask someone to bring in some ice?"
"Your Majesty. The imperial physician said you can't eat ice anymore." Du Yue bent down.
"Humph……"
The emperor stood on the ground and only glanced at Du Yue.
Du Yue was so frightened that he knelt down and said, "I am confused. Your Majesty is a cultivator, so he is not afraid of anything. Taoist Wu's elixir is the best."
"I know that you ordinary people don't understand." The emperor said coldly: "You should know that you are a dog beside me."
"Which doctor said that?"
"That's what Doctor You said."
The pearl string in the emperor's hand trembled, "Pass on my oral order, saying that the imperial physician You spread rumors to confuse the people. He shall be beaten to death."
Du Yue: “…” The moody and evil emperor is here.
He felt inexplicably excited about walking on a tightrope.
"Yes. I will go right away."
Xiliang broke the agreement and sent people to attack Mobei. Xie Zheng lost Yingzui Pass, causing Mobei to enter a state of war again. The court officials all knew that the reason was Xie Zheng.
Xie Zheng also had an imperial decree, so he was not subject to Su Zhixun's control.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Xie Zheng escaped. In my opinion, let the Royal Guards bring Xie Zheng back. Xie Zheng cannot evade the responsibilities he should bear."
Jing'an Bo, Xie Zheng's father, knew something was wrong when he heard this.
If Xie Zheng really has to take responsibility, then the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion will not be able to escape the blame.
He knelt down hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Lin is wrong. Mobei is under the jurisdiction of Su Zhixun. He is the general king of Mobei, so naturally he should bear the responsibility."
Jing'an Bo knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty. My son is too young to dare to turn over Su Zhixun's palm."
"Su Zhixun is afraid of being held accountable, so he deliberately makes my son take the blame."
Bo Luohui glanced at him silently.
He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Jing'an Earl is shirking his responsibility. Although Xie Zheng is guarding the Eagle's Beak Pass in Mobei, he is not under the jurisdiction of General Su."
"Minister Bo is right. This matter is all Xie Zheng's responsibility."
"General Su has been guarding the Eagle Desert North for so many years, and he has never let Xiliang break through the Eagle's Beak Pass."
"Xie Zheng is stubborn and self-righteous, why would he listen to General Su's advice?"
……
Every word of the crowd fell into the ears of the emperor.
It seemed as if everyone was blaming him.
At that time, he proposed Xie Zheng to guard Yingzui Pass because there was no way a thousand men could get through there without one man. He wanted to give the ready-made credit to Xie Zheng, who had only been there for a few months.
On that day, it was not easy for these ministers to separate Xie Zheng's army from Su Zhixun's army.
He glanced at the princes.
The princes all lowered their heads and dared not speak.
A bunch of losers.
He gave Dou Tiansheng another look.
Dou Tiansheng immediately understood the emperor's meaning and scolded those who were blaming Jing'an Earl.
"Everyone is in the court, and the emperor hasn't said anything. Why are you all so anxious? There has always been a saying that one man can block the pass of ten thousand men, so why is it so easy to attack this time?"
"That's because of Xie Zheng."
"Master Liu, why are you so anxious?" Dou Tiansheng snorted nonchalantly, "I said it's Su Zhixun's problem."
"He is confident in letting Xie Zheng take over, which means Xie Zheng has no problem guarding Yingzui Pass."
Everyone: "..."
What does Su Zhixun mean by rest assured?
Wasn't this arranged by the emperor despite everyone's opposition?
Everyone knows it, but dares not say it.
Who dares to say it’s the emperor’s problem?
"Since Xie Zheng had no problem guarding Yingzui Pass, why did problems arise later? What do you think the problem was?" Dou Tiansheng threw the topic to everyone again.
Earl Jing'an understood what Dou Tiansheng meant.
Everyone understood it.
Bo Luohui was so heartbroken.
The emperor was no match for the previous Crown Prince in any way. The few tricks he had were all used on loyal ministers and capable generals.
He felt a chill all over his body, and remembered what Grandpa Su said to him before he left: "Lord Bo, you must take the position of Minister. Others dare not refute the emperor's opinion, only you, the humble and upright, know how to give the right opinion. Otherwise... the Great Zhou will be in danger."
Withdraw your thoughts.
Bo Luohui heard Jing'an Bo slap his thigh and shout:
"It's because of Su Zhixun. Even if he doesn't hate my son for dividing his power, his close associates will definitely hate him.
Your Majesty, I have always said that Xie Zheng is not a child without manners.
How did the Yingzui Pass get lost? Now that I think about it, it must have been Su Zhixun's people who did it. It's possible that they...colluded with Xiliang."
"Bullshit." Lan Tianji shouted, "Su Zhixun lost his beloved and tens of thousands of soldiers. You actually said he was colluding with Xiliang?"
Jing'an Bo sneered:
"Master Lan, please stop whitewashing him."
"As a husband, he didn't think of saving his wife, but actually shot her to death. An arrow shot through her throat shows how cruel and ruthless he is. He can be so cruel and vicious to the person who gave birth to his children. What else can Su Zhixun not do?"
"The one who died was Lord Lan's own sister. Lord Lan, please don't cover up for Su Zhixun."
"Can a general kill his wife in the name of the people? If he can kill his wife, he can use the soldiers as a show. He can also use the Xiliang people to attack from both sides and bring down Xie Zheng."
Earl Jing'an cried very sadly.
The psychological construction is shameless.
He cried bitterly:
"Your Majesty, what did my son do wrong? If Su Zhixun could kill his wife, what else could he not do? To be frank, he might even dare to kill the emperor in the future."
Shen Zhongshu, who had been silent all this time, immediately changed his expression.
"Marquis Jing'an, stop talking nonsense."
"Your Majesty. This old minister... woooo..." Jing'an Bo cried pitifully. He knew that the emperor sympathized with the weak the most. The more pitiful you were, the more he could empathize with you.
As for the truth?
that's not important.
"Alas. Marquis Jing'an is also pitiful. I really can't bear it." The emperor wiped his eyes with his sleeve. He never cared about his image. After all, his true nature had been revealed since he ascended the throne.
No one dared to say anything.
Shang Yan's heart sank.
It seems that the emperor has made up his mind to let Su Zhixun take the blame.
"What Marquis Jing'an said makes sense. Think about it, how could Su Zhixun, a man who even killed his own wife, tolerate Xie Zheng taking away Yingzui Pass?" The emperor raised his eyes and glanced around. Seeing that everyone looked gloomy, he was not very happy.
As the emperor, every order could be opposed.
Su Zhixun was just a military general.
After losing Eagle's Beak Pass, these people's faces turned as black as charcoal.
"What do you think, my dear ministers?"
Bo Le Hui is heartbroken:
"Your Majesty, I believe that General Su cares about the people of Mobei. He will not collude with the people of Xiliang just because Xie Zheng is guarding Yingzui Pass. This is too serious a statement for a loyal general."
All the military commanders present knelt down.
"Your Majesty, thoroughly investigate Xie Zheng and don't let the generals down."
The emperor was furious:
"You want to force me? Didn't I say I wouldn't investigate Xie Zheng? It's just that responsibilities vary. As the great general of Mobei, doesn't Su Zhixun have any responsibility?"
"But the emperor has issued an order that Xie Zheng will not be under General Su's jurisdiction?"
"General Gu. Do you mean that I was wrong? You want me to take responsibility for this incident?" The emperor threw the letter directly at him.
The paper fell to the ground.
General Gu straightened his back and knelt on the ground.
"The general will not dare."
"You don't dare? I think you dare. Don't think I don't know that your daughter-in-law and Lan Xuanji are close friends. It is understandable that you are leaning towards the Su family.
But the court is not a place for you to form cliques and pursue personal interests." After the emperor shouted angrily, he began to cough anxiously.
Du Yue hurried forward to smooth the emperor's back.
"Oh, my Lords. The Emperor didn't sleep all night yesterday. I beg you to stop forcing him." Du Yue was about to cry, "Fifth Prince, Sixth Prince... please say a few words for the Emperor."
His words also made the princes feel heavy-hearted.
I wanted to stay out of it, but it seems that I can't.
