Starfall

Chapter 54 Don't Kneel

Fanyang, the imperial capital Xiangquan City Palace.

A group of imperial officials dressed in lark walking beast officers looked anxious. Three or two groups of heads huddled together to talk in a low voice, shaking their heads and sighing from time to time. These officials who can stand in the palace and see the saints can be regarded as the mainstay of the empire. Which one is not a real authority? Every time they get together, they also call each other brothers with smiles, saying 'the official career is smooth, further', 'I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm still in good health' and so on, such as sincere or false officialdom polite words. Now that your majesty's edict has ordered the court meeting, they also know what happened. The whole Fanyang temple was shocked, and they also had to look like a loyal minister.

The temple has always been a column of civilian generals, but the generals have always led troops outside and failed to return them in time, so the difference between the three or five generals was also made up by the literary ministers. Moreover, after the chaos of the first year of Mingchan 20 years ago, how many generals are qualified to stand in the temple?

Before the emperor arrived, the ministers whispered and talked about what had happened. There are three or five groups of people who catch each other's ears and talk about whether it's lively or not. There are ministers who are excluded from the group, but there are also ministers who are obviously standing there, which are more arrogant than the ministers of the three or five groups. For example, Lu Miaobai, who is standing in the front row of the right civil servant, is waiting for Lu Miaobai with his hands with his sleeves closed and eyes, such as Yin Cangyan, a royal palace general with a ferocious beast-faced bronze armor.

One article, one martial arts, one dragon and one tiger, like two giant pillars, supporting Fanyang Temple.

In the past five years, the Fanyang Temple Hall has changed. Lu Miaobai, the son of Luzhongtang, who disappeared 15 years ago, returned. After a secret discussion with His Majesty, he inherited the official position of his father's generation. The official worshiped the imperial palace and pavilion, sealed the Marquis 'Yuehua', gave the horse clothes and a house. He can enter and exit the palace at will and use it to the extreme. In the past five years, Fanyang's policy has been reversed from focusing on business and agriculture rather than martial arts. It has allocated 300,000 exiles to open up wasteland to increase farmland, impose heavy taxes on the huge arms of merchants who pay huge amounts of gold to the national treasury every year, increase the difficulty of imperial examinations, and improve the treatment of military warriors... A series of superficial actions are dazzling, and I don't know how much The measures under the table are unknown.

In theory, such an imperial upstart, the emperor is convinced that there should be countless emperors and magnates competing to worship each other in order to get a cup of the soup in the future, or they can be pulled up after encountering accidents, but Lu Miaobai has never received a silver or a copper plate from these officials, but There are signs of party formation for personal gain.

This is already a hidden appearance covering the sky in the Fanyang temple, maintaining an incomprehensible noble arrogance. It seems to be detached and unwilling to have something to do with these muddy imperial capital magnates.

Many people guessed that Lu Miaobai had a good scar but remembered the pain, and did not forget how his father Lu Zhongtang died 20 years ago? Dazhu Kingdom Luzhongtang, the only Dazhu Kingdom among the four Shangzhu Kingdom. At the time of the former emperor, he was already a great minister and was very good at management and research. There were countless students under his knees, such as a huge octopus, with tentacles all over the corners of the empire. Even when he shook his head, half of the officials in the temple knelt down and begged His Majesty to take back his life. It is known as 'Lu Lu' in private.

At that time, Yin Cangyan, another upper pillar in the temple of Fanyang Temple, also ran a good relationship. He was open and heroic, and made outstanding achievements in the battle. He worshipped the general of the imperial palace and was very prestigious in the army. Even among the warriors, there was a saying that "only respect the general tiger charm, not the emperor's imperial edict". Yin The series of generals behind Cangyan is called the 'Yan Party'

Lu Lu and the Yan Party, every minister who enters the court must stand in line to join it, otherwise it will be swept out and replaced by a miserable end.

is also a piece of martial arts. If the sky of Fanyang Temple is divided, the two of them can influence the direction of the empire and the emperor's thoughts.

After that, the former emperor died and the six dragons seized the throne. Several princes came to the door with generous gifts in order to get the support of these two temple giant arms. What is puzzling is that Lu Zhongtang and Yin Cangyan both chose to protect their strength outside their personal affairs and did not want to rush into the battle of the princes to seize the throne.

After the six dragons took the throne, it was today's emperor. Perhaps His Majesty Mingchan felt that Lu Zhongtang and Yin Cangyan were not loyal to themselves by choosing to watch at that time. Maybe they felt that these two ministers were there. If the Fanyang royal family were full with all their strength, they would suddenly take action like a summer thunderstorm and launched an order. The shocking 'Random of the first year of Mingchan'

Using the palace guard to suppress the ministers of Luluyan Party, blood washed the imperial capital and almost killed the two factions. Lu Zhongtang of Dazhu Kingdom was pulled to death by the downtown - five horses were put on people's necks and limbs respectively, drove the horses in five directions, and the people were torn apart in the middle.

General Yin Cangyan, the general of the imperial palace, was beheaded, and three of his four sons died. Only his youngest son escaped from the imperial capital in panic under the desperate cover of his cronies, hiding his name and survived.

All officials above the fourth grade who are involved with Lu Lu will be raided and put on death row. Officials below the fourth grade will be dismissed and returned to their hometown and will never be used again. However, the generals of the Yan Party ended up too miserably. They all raided their homes and executed them. They disbanded all the armies except the Cang navy. Ao Yuchang shot became the imperial capital garrison, the few cavalry became royal honor guards, and the ghosts of the elite scouts also became the messengers of the royal family.

A rebellion in the first year of Mingchan almost brought a big purge to the Fanyang Temple. The emperor was contented to install his trusted meritorious ministers in the empty position, and no longer saw the scene that one party could influence the imperial power - the royal family covered the sky with one hand. Next, the emperor washed his hands and began to cultivate himself and practice tea for 20 years.

The new and old temples are changing with each passing day. After witnessing the bloody and turbulent ministers return to their hometown one after another, they have no intention to be officials. Instead, the new young officials feel that His Majesty Ming Chan is kind and holy, and he is a rare good emperor.

Today, 20 years later, Emperor Mingchan did not know why to appoint Lu Miaobai, the son of Lu Zhongtang of the former Dazhu Kingdom, and made General Yan, who had fled for 16 years, regain military power. These two powerful people who were severely suppressed in those years seemed to take the imperial order seriously, regardless of the blood feud of those years. He also knew the etiquette and did not form a party for personal gain as in those years, which made Lu Luyan's party reappear and try his best to serve the royal family in order to make a name in history.

Such a temple scene is what the emperor would most like to see, and it is also the most needed peaceful weather of Fanyang.

Lu Miaobai, the queen of Yuehua in the imperial palace, and Yin Cangyan, the general of the imperial palace, one left and one right, one text and one martial arts, seem to support Fanyang Temple again!

Bold and loyal, heaven and earth can be seen.

Fanyang's famous minister is so strong, why not worry about prosperity?

It's just that your Majesty's urgent imperial edict today, and the atmosphere suddenly became depressing.

Mengyang's army suppressed the situation and took three military towns in less than an hour, and then tens of thousands of Mengyang cavalry** killed and slaughtered innocent people in Qinghe County. Overnight, more than 100,000 people in Qinghe City were killed and turned into a dead city.

This is a slaughter city! Accustomed to a comfortable life with worry-free food and clothing, how far away the word slaughter is from them, but now it really happens in Fanyang, how can they not be afraid?

After Qinghe County is the Yulan Mountains. The water of the river originates from Yulan Mountain and goes all the way east along the river. The land of the five counties is the imperial capital.

It depends on how the empire copes.

"The eldest prince is here - the eldest prince is coming -" Someone shouted in a low voice.

A young man in a golden python robe strode, with long black hair with a bun above his head, front of his forehead, full eyebrows, pale and thin face, but the sword eyebrows slanted like temples, adding a strong color. Just looking at his face, the eldest prince is like a desireless ascetic monk, full of righteousness.

Among the three princes, the eldest prince is the most likely to be appointed as the crown prince!

At a young age, he began to deal with political affairs for His Majesty, took good care of the empire, and followed Lu Miaobai to practice governance. He is a magnificent person, and his contact with him is like a spring breeze. He is quite a perfect person, which makes people feel unreal.

A famous man commented on the eldest prince, 'Although the son of the tiger and leopard has not been written, he has the spirit of eating cattle.'

He strutted proudly and looked ahead. He didn't look at the two courtiers. He went straight to Lu Miaobai's side and stopped for a moment.

Lu Miaobai just nodded quietly, and the eldest prince raised his eyebrows gently. He continued to walk forward and stood in front of the ministers with no expression on his face.

When the eldest prince arrived, the whispers of the ministers suddenly stopped and stood respectfully. After all, they may be princes on the throne in the future, and they dare not be presumptuous at all. Twenty years ago, the Yan Party and Lulu stood side by side, and even the princes couldn't do anything about them.

Imperial mind art, minister power art, contain each other, balance each other, either side is too strong, will make the temple turbulent.

The eldest prince didn't say a word, and his expression was indifferent. The ministers stood with their hands, and the ministers saluted and respectfully.

The king and minister are peaceful.

Only General Yu Dianyan, who was blind, glanced at the corners of his mouth with an imperceptible sneer.

At this time, there was a eunuch with a full tone of words, "Your Majesty arrived--"

The minister looked awe-looking and more modest. Emperor Fanyang, the king of a country.

The eunuch stepped quickly and stood in front of the ministers and said loudly, "Your Majesty's will, the prince and princess will not kneel on the face, the saint behind the moon flower of the imperial palace will not kneel, and General Yan will not kneel on the face of the imperial palace!"

Three don't kneel!

Three princes and a princess, only the eldest prince, the second prince, the third prince and Princess Ning Zheng have not returned. The prince and princess did not kneel on their faces, which was reasonable. The other two can also not kneel, but it is meaningful.

It's the first time that the saint doesn't kneel down. It's more shocking than giving a sword to a horse and a house. In the face of the great disaster of the empire, does Your Majesty really want to order these two people to be in danger?

It is not guaranteed that it will be the end of killing the donkey again.

The two courtiers beat thousands neatly, their robes piled up, knelt down, and threw their five bodies to the ground.

"Hang Long live my emperor--"

The emperor went to the throne, and the nine-five dragon robe was dazzling. Put your knees slowly and sit down condescendingly.

The world's great talents enter my hub, swallowing mountains and rivers like tigers, and Huangfu's family is in the world.

After the Yuehua of the Royal Palace, he bent his head slightly to show his respect. General Yu Dianyan's eyes were solemn, and his waist was as straight as a long gun. Behind him, the ministers knelt down and bowed respectfully.

On the throne, the emperor looked down at the ministers with a playful expression.
