Chapter 2121 Compassion
"Who's back?"
An Lun was about to recite the sutras. After hearing the report from outside, he almost couldn't believe it and got off the bed and walked out to ask.
The guard outside the door was holding a half-eaten oil cake in his hand. When he saw An Lun coming out, he didn't know whether to throw it away or what, and was stunned for a moment.
"Eat yours, and tell me."
An Lun's friendly attitude made the guard feel that he might have won the favor of this boss, so he said excitedly: "When I came just now, I heard someone shouting, so I waited and saw Cheng Guogong outside the imperial city. He probably wanted to see His Majesty..."
An Lun nodded and ordered: "Our people went too late, and the people from Shandong didn't report in time. What should we do..."
Everyone was frightened immediately.
After An Lun took office, he hadn't started a fire inside. If anyone got angry, he would pray that he would not be put into the torture room.
An Lun looked around, and then said lightly: "It's not easy in Shandong, a small mistake... that's it."
After a sigh of relief, An Lun left his confidant Chen Shi, and then explained: "Duke Cheng is here, I'm afraid something big has happened in Shandong, send a fast horse immediately, let those people make meritorious contributions, otherwise no matter how merciful we are..."
Chen Shi bowed his hands and said sincerely: "Eunuch, you are already merciful enough. If it were our family, none of those people would escape punishment."
An Lun glanced at him, smiled, and returned to his honesty.
"The man just came late, a few days later..."
Chen Shi's face was just right with anger, and he said: "You are late, he is late, everyone is late, Eunuch, this trend cannot be allowed to continue!"
An Lun nodded, and then continued: "The little horse next to our family..."
The little horse was An Lun's follower, who had only been with him for a short time.
Chen Shi didn't know what he meant, so he smiled.
An Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, hiding the coldness in his eyes, and said, "Too frivolous, almost missed our family's big event..."
"Severe punishment!"
Chen Shi said without hesitation, "Xiao Ma has been a little proud these days, and often quarrels with those foreigners. Our family has long been fed up with it. Don't worry, father-in-law, we will deal with this matter."
An Lun nodded and said, "His eyes are not very honest, and his hands have some problems..."
Chen Shi stood up and whispered, "That's redundant..."
An Lun closed his eyes and chanted the Buddha's name slowly.
".....Following the father-in-law, there is meat to eat! I ate a whole pig's trotter last night, tsk! The oil flowed down the corners of my mouth..."
Outside came the sound of Xiao Ma bragging with others.
The autumn wind blew on the window lattice, and the sound of puffing gradually became crisp.
"Xiao Ma, come here!"
"I'm coming!"
Xiao Ma's voice was very happy...
The sound of the Buddha's name gradually became louder. There was no sandalwood in the room, and there was a damp smell.
…
"I am guilty."
Outside the hall, the autumn rain was blown in by the wind. The people in the hall couldn't help but shiver, and then looked at Zhu Yong who was kneeling in the middle.
"....I was not there at the time. Those scholars rushed into the army, and many soldiers were injured. Finally...I couldn't bear it anymore..."
A strong wind swept the drizzle in and blew on Zhu Yong.
He trembled, and everyone could see the annoyance on his face.
The emperor sent him to Shandong, which was not only a token of surrender, but also showed that the emperor valued him, and he would definitely be of great use in the future.
But this value was thrown into the autumn wind by Zhu Yong, and the rest was only cold.
Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Yong coldly and said, "What are you busy with?"
Zhu Yong looked up and said, "Your Majesty, I was leading people to clear out a group of thieves at the time..."
He had no room for quibbling, and there was only improper handling.
Does a group of thieves need you, Zhu Yong, to personally encircle and suppress them?
Zhu Yong knelt on the ground, and he felt that there were mocking eyes all around, including military merits.
There is no eternal enemy. When a Duke Cheng falls, another Duke * will naturally come up.
This is the norm!
Zhu Yong felt that he was mentally ill for being so close to those people in the past.
Where are friends in this world? It's just a short-term gathering of people with common interests.
This is the most sober moment in his life!
He felt that he was doomed, so he returned to Beijing rashly just to show his loyalty.
—— I didn't think of escaping. Even if I was cut into pieces, I still came back and let the emperor deal with me.
Idiot!
The eyes of the civil officials were mostly indifferent, not mocking.
Without any determination and strategy, this is military merit, military merit inherited from the title.
Most of them are just idiots!
Even if you have a lot of grievances and are eager to express your loyalty, you shouldn't return to Beijing without an imperial decree.
What is this?
Domineering?
No, Zhu Yong is not qualified to be domineering.
That's stupid!
Stupid people are naturally not worth mocking, they are only suitable to see if there is any place to use them.
"Your Majesty, Shandong is already in a state of turmoil..."
"There is nothing boiling!"
Zhu Zhanji said firmly: "It's just that someone took the opportunity to cause trouble. Xinghe Bo has already gone. I don't ask the reason or anything else. I will clean it up. Who wants to speak? Who has suggestions? Who wants to impeach? Come out!"
No one came out!
The emperor's murderous intentions rose. Those who came out at this time were either fools or businessmen with terminal illnesses who wanted to take the opportunity to use their rotten lives to fight for a reputation.
Zhu Zhanji stood up and walked down, looked down at Zhu Yong, and said coldly: "You rush back to the capital regardless of the importance. Where is your military strategy? With such incompetence, can I dare to expect you to lead an army to conquer?"
Zhu Yong raised his head, tears streaming down his face, and said blankly: "Your Majesty, I... you deserve death!"
"You deserve to die!"
Zhu Zhanji fluffed his sleeves and went up, turned around, looked at the civil servants indifferently, and then looked at the military honors, and said: "You are not lacking in loyalty, but you have become a household dog. I... Ming Dynasty does not need so much..."
This is almost a blatant humiliation of Wu Xun!
Zhang Fu felt cold in his heart and went out to say: "Your Majesty, Duke Cheng... this is the Ming Dynasty after all."
Does the emperor want to provoke fighting and hostility between civil and military forces again?
Zhang Fu's words were concise and concise - this was the country of the Ming Dynasty, and it was impossible for Zhu Yong to use the means to deal with the enemy.
Yang Rong was in a daze for a moment, feeling that the person above him was the violent Emperor Wen.
"You act carelessly and you dare to call yourself a general? Go back home and think about your mistakes behind closed doors!"
Zhu Zhanji sat back and looked at Zhu Yong with indifference in his eyes.
Incompetent people occupy high positions. This is the current situation of Ming Dynasty Wuxun.
In another twenty or thirty years, when all the experienced warriors are gone, who will lead the army?
Is it just relying on fools like Zhu Yong who attack the title?
At this moment, the status of martial arts in Zhu Zhanji's heart reached a new level.
Zhu Yong thanked him with an ashen face, and then staggered out.
Cheng Guogong's lineage is in danger!
Zhang Fu's roundabout plea worked, at least Zhu Yong was just grounded.
But Wu Xun was increasingly marginalized. If the emperor hadn't relied on Wu Xun and his relatives to balance the government, he would have slapped him long ago.
And the emperor definitely had a premeditated plan!
After they dispersed, Huang Huai, who had been coughing since autumn, was supported by Jin Youzi. He whispered: "Your Majesty must have received the news before Duke Cheng came to Beijing."
Jin Youzi glanced at Zhang Fu who was walking in the front, feeling a little sad after all the changes in the world.
"It must be true. His Majesty did not hide it, so he sent Uncle Xinghe to Shandong. This time... Mr. Huang, there is going to be blood!"
The autumn wind swirled up the dead leaves and flew over the head of Meng Ying who was in a hurry.
"It's time to take action!"
Meng Ying caught up with Zhang Fu and said worriedly.
Zhang Fu looked livid and said: "Zhu Yong is a bastard... He keeps making mistakes again and again. Dehua went to kill people this time, and the taste has changed. In the final analysis, it is still his fault. He makes mistakes again and again. He is so stupid!"
Meng Ying smiled bitterly and said: "Those people will be happy to see the results. I wish Uncle Xinghe would make more noise. When the world is in chaos, it will naturally return to the past..."
