Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The crescent moon sank little by little toward the horizon, and a torch was lit outside Weiyang Palace.  šIUnder the firelight, two rows of strong Yulin guards lined up on both sides.  The entrance to the palace was full of courtiers chatting with each other, and everyone had puffs of white air coming out of their mouths.  Suddenly the sound of carriages and horses rumbled in the distance, and all the courtiers stopped their greetings and looked over.  Going to court in the early winter morning is an uncomfortable thing. The courtiers all got up and washed before going directly to Weiyang Palace.  I have never found anyone so boring that they actually formed a group to go to court.  There seemed to be more torches in the team in the distance than in front of the palace gate, and the courtiers began to buzz with discussion again.  With so many people in a family eligible to go to court at the same time, there was only one family in the Han Dynasty, and that was the Dou family.  I don¡¯t know why the Dou family sent out troops today. Do they oppose sending troops to Dongou?  It is obvious that Dongou dared to attack the envoys of the Han Dynasty, which was a trampling on the dignity of the Han Dynasty.  The current emperor is not an honest person who accepts bullying, and his intention to fight has become clear.  If the Dou family tries to stop sending troops!  The excitement is going to be great. The Emperor of the Han Dynasty is fighting against the first family. Today's court meeting will be lively.  The courtiers were speculating about the Dou family's purpose, but they were talking about the charm of the brothel with their colleagues.  Having been fooling around in the political circles for many years, they have developed the ability to speak inconsistently.  Dou Pengzu was the first to step off the carriage, followed by Dou Yuan, Dou Gui, Dou Zhong The courtiers greeted these Dou family members while making careful calculations.  Hey why is there no Wei Qihou Dou Ying?  The keen courtiers noticed at a glance that there was one missing person in the Dou family's team.  The most important figure, Dou Ying, was nowhere to be seen. Some old guys twirled their beards and thought about how long it had been since they had seen Dou Ying.  People from the Dou family greeted familiar courtiers one after another. A large group of people dispersed into the huge crowd of courtiers and were suddenly diluted.  There was another buzz in front of Weiyang Palace.  "The time has come, all ministers should prepare themselves for the audience!" The voice of the chamberlain echoed far away in the cold air.  The courtiers lined up in two neat lines.  Follow the chamberlain through the gate of Weiyang Palace.  Heading towards the center of the Han Dynasty's rule - the Prosecution Room.  Entering the palace gate, the attentive courtiers discovered.  There seemed to be a lot of people in Yulin today, and there was a dense crowd of Yulin guards standing outside the door of the announcement room, wearing red feathers on their helmets, but wearing pitch black armor.  This is Qimen Yulin, the emperor's private soldier.  The courtiers were a little nervous, and they seemed to smell a hint of blood in their hound-like noses.  Some smart masters.  He has quietly distanced himself from the Dou family.  Walking into the main hall, Prime Minister Zhuang Qingzhai, who was leading the ceremony, was surprised.  Liu Che was already sitting high on the dragon chair, and the beads on the crown reflected the light yellow candlelight.  It's hard to see his expression clearly.  Twelve huge candle mountains in the announcement room illuminated the inside and outside brightly. The places where the chamberlains once stood were now filled with warriors in pitch-black armor.  Zhuang Qingzhai lowered his head and led the courtiers to bow to Liu Che.  Then he knelt down on the futon obediently. Everything today was full of evil.  It seemed a little different from usual, Zhuang Qingzhai made up his mind.  No more words will be said today. Everything will be reported to the Empress Dowager after the court meeting.  Xu Qing turned to look at the old man. The two met their eyes and understood each other's thoughts.  This old guy has the same idea as himself.  Zhuang Qingzhai thought so.  "People came in a very neat manner. The issue that needs to be discussed in the court meeting today is the Dongou issue. All ministers and workers know that the Dongou people openly despise me. They attacked the team of envoys I sent to mediate. Fortunately, the partial general Wei Qing fought bravely to kill him.  We defeated the enemy and killed two thousand enemy troops. This way we did not lose our troops and humiliate our country." Liu Che seemed a little excited when he spoke. He paused and glanced at the ministers before continuing: "The problem of Dongou requires troops, otherwise what is the power of the Han Dynasty.  Where is the dignity? All ministers can talk freely about the strategy of attacking Dongou. " Liu Che set the tone for the court as soon as he came up.  The courtiers were a little frightened.  Let¡¯s skip the question of whether to use troops. What happened to the little emperor today?  After all, it was with the consent of the Empress Dowager.  Or is it the opinion of the little emperor alone?  The announcement room was silent, no one spoke.  At this time, the direction of the wind is unclear, and it is most important to stay true to yourself.  Suddenly someone stood up and walked to the middle of the announcement room.  Everyone was surprised that the person who stood up was actually Dou Pengzu.  The boss of the Dou family appeared in person, and the courtiers all held their breath.  Listen to what the boss of the Dou family has to say.  "Your Majesty, the small country of Dong'ou has rebelled against me. I have made the power of the Han Dynasty invisible, and I also believe that it is difficult to subdue Xiao Xiao without sending heavenly troops." The ministers couldn't help but be moved. It seemed that the young emperor must have asked the Empress Dowager for instructions.  Otherwise, the boss of the Dou family would not second Liu Che's opinion right away.  "I second the proposal!" "I second the proposal!" "I second the proposal!" "I second the proposal!" "I second the proposal!" Then came the voice of secondment.The Dou family and the courtiers who were familiar with the Dou family echoed Dou Pengzu's speech.  Last night, the Dou family discussed the matter all night long.  It is to study how to obtain the military power to conquer the South.  They agreed with Liu Che's southern expedition with both hands.  Unexpectedly, Liu Che set the tone as soon as he came up, which made the Dou family overjoyed.  Dou Pengzu jumped out excitedly and began to sing praises to Liu Che regardless of the pre-arranged arrangements.  Seeing that the Dou family and the emperor had squatted in a trench, even a fool understood that opposing this war at this time was going against the two most powerful forces in the court.  The voices of seconders became louder and louder, and in the end, the voices of seconders were all merged into one, and it was difficult to tell who said it.  Liu Che's face that had just smiled suddenly fell. Dou Pengzu's response made him very unhappy.  In my heart, he should be the one who responds to everything.  "Cough cough cough" Liu Che coughed several times, and Zhuang Qingzhai woke up from his dream.  scolded the noisy courtiers.  Dou Pengzu was immersed in a huge sense of satisfaction. It turned out that it felt so good to respond to everything at once.  He was very satisfied to be able to achieve such an effect in the announcement room.  When the courtiers became quiet again, Dou Pengzu bowed and replied: "I believe that the troops south of the Yangtze River are not as good as those in the north. The troops of the Chang'an South Camp should be mobilized to go south to suppress it, and people with experience in the south of the Yangtze River should be appointed as generals in the southern expedition.  In this way, we can defeat the enemy without compromising the power of our Han army. I propose" "Master Fengchang, we will discuss later whether we should talk about the mobilization of the southern camp and how to provide food and grass.  Moreover, Jiangnan is a water war. If the South Camp has not been fighting for a long time, the combat capability of the soldiers is worrying. The minister suggested that instead of recruiting soldiers and horses in the South Camp, it would save time to march back and forth.  Furthermore, the Jiangnan navy is more suitable for fighting in Dongou." When Han Yan saw that the momentum was not good, he immediately jumped out.  Last night, Han Yan, Dongfang Shuo, Zhu Fuyan and others also discussed with Liu Che all night, and the topic was also the issue of how to speak today.  They originally thought that the Dou family would stop it, so they were all thinking about how to defend the Dou family.  Unexpectedly, the Dou family members showed a cooperative attitude when they came up today.  I thought the Dou family had been informed about the return of the tiger talisman by the Queen Mother last night.  It was not until Dou Pengzu brought the topic to the people in charge of the troops that Han Yan, who was quick to respond, realized that they agreed to send troops because they wanted to seize military power.  This is impossible no matter what.  Han Yan was unprepared when he jumped out, and his words were a little scattered.  But what is rare is to use food, grass and military power to talk things out. Dou Pengzu is not good at eloquence and was so speechless that he didn't know what to say.  "You're such a yellow-mouthed brat, you only have an official rank of 800 shi. You're not as big as a mustard seed, so you don't have the right to speak here!" Seeing that his eldest brother suffered a loss, Dou Gui walked out unluckily.  He immediately scolded Han Yan loudly.  "Just shut up! In today's court meeting, all ministers present can make a court meeting. Dr. Sanchang has such great official authority that he actually reprimanded the court official in court. Your Majesty, I impeach Dr. Sanchang Dou Gui for suppressing his speech.  Roaring the temple, please punish me." When Dongfang Shuo saw Dou Gui reprimanding his good brother, he immediately stood up and spoke for his brother.  A big hat was placed on Dou Gui's head, and the handle of the knife was now in Liu Che's hand.  Roaring the temple, this crime can be either big or small.  It's okay to reprimand him, and it's okay to take him out and give him a slap in the face.  As for the things like playing boards, if you want to die, you can look at a thousand degrees in a full screen.  The guys in charge of the imperial staff all have ancestral craftsmanship, and a piece of sheepskin is weighed on the stone.  The stone is broken into pieces, but the sheepskin cannot be damaged at all.  Even worse, the sheepskin was broken into pieces.  A stone cannot be broken into pieces.  This is all real technical work.  Usually, these guys actively participate in physical exercises and train hard on their beating skills.  The purpose is to rush forward at the critical moment and ensure that those who are beaten to death cannot survive and those who are beaten to death cannot die.  As long as a thousand degrees of eyes, a hundred sticks hit a skin and flesh, and they are a good man to lie home for a month or two, and the two wars are not killed.  To put it bluntly, it depends on Liu Che's mood.  "How braveyou" Dou Gui was about to point at Dongfang Shuo and yell.  Dou Pengzu had already discovered that something was wrong. Han Yan was a close minister of Liu Che.  This Dongfang Shuo is the little emperor's loyal lackey. As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on its owner.  Unexpectedly, Liu Che's face was as dark as water, and he was on the verge of exploding.  There is something wrong with today¡¯s momentum. The little emperor is very confident.  I didn't see that there were Qimen Yulin guards all around. They were all private soldiers of the little emperor, and they were all fed with knives and money.  Liu Che's orders were carried out meticulously.  If Dou Gui is really going to be unfavorable today, it is not impossible to kill him on the spot.  Dou Pengzu grabbed Dou Gui, bowed and saluted Liu Che, and said, "Your Majesty, my second brother is a rough-tempered man."He deliberately roared in the temple, and asked Your Majesty to let him go this time for the sake of the Empress Dowager.  " After saying that, I bowed to the ground with great piety.
