Quick Wear: The Demon Lord blew up the tomb at the beginning
Chapter 62 I am the King of a Country (1)
After dealing with Zhang Yuming and others.
Plus the silver supplemented by the court officials.
The problem of treasury shortage was also solved.
Xie Lang generously allocated five million taels to the military camp and asked Zhang Lin to improve the soldiers' food first.
Xie Lang never treats unfairly the soldiers who risk their lives to defend their country.
Time passed slowly.
After a few days.
A military report reached Xie Lang.
Xie Lang immediately summoned several important ministers to the Huaguang Palace.
In the Huaguang Hall, Xie Lang sat at the top.
He did not show his joy or anger, and said to everyone: "You can take a look at this military report first."
Having said that, he asked Chen Ziyu to pass the military newspaper down so that they could take turns reading it.
Wei Renda finished reading it first, his eyes were very solemn.
Yang Zhan saw Wei Renda's expression and wondered what was written on it that would make him look like that.
When the military report was handed to him, he took a careful look at it and his expression turned grim.
After reading all of them, Xie Lang's face remained as calm as ever, and he asked, "Everyone, what do you think?"
"How dare a traitor come here? This is simply absurd. Your Majesty, I think that as soon as Wang Mengxian arrives in Daliang, he should be arrested and hanged on the city gate for seven days and seven nights, and then tortured to death in the vegetable market, so that everyone can see that this is the fate of a traitor."
As soon as Xie Lang asked the question, Wang Linxian spoke first.
The content of this military report was that Wang Mengxian came to Daliang with the order of the retired emperor and the conditions proposed by the Khitan to discuss the return of the retired emperor.
However, as soon as Wang Mengxian arrived in Dayan, he was captured by Chen He, who then wrote the incident into a military report and passed it to Xie Lang.
Wang Linxian really disliked Wang Mengxian, a traitor. How could he be worthy of the surname Wang? Bah, it was simply an insult to the surname "Wang".
Moreover, Wang Mengxian was the former Minister of Rites. As the Minister of Rites, he should have a better understanding of propriety, integrity, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
I didn't expect that he would be the biggest traitor. It's so ridiculous.
So when he saw that it was Wang Mengxian, he wanted to torture him to death.
However, no one responded to Wang Linxian's words.
"Your Majesty, Wang Mengxian is a Khitan envoy, and the military report mentioned that he came with the order of the retired emperor. Since this is related to the retired emperor, it is not good not to meet him. Why not meet him and see what he is planning?"
Wei Renda thought for a moment and decided that he should meet with them so as to find out what the Khitans were planning to do.
"In that case, let's set the time for the next morning court session. You guys go and get ready."
Xie Lang settled the matter with just one sentence.
"I obey your order." The ministers bowed to Xie Lang.
A few days later.
Inside Weiyang Palace.
This court meeting was of great importance, and the ministers also learned that Wang Mengxian would come, so they began to discuss the matter in the hall.
"Hasn't that traitor already defected to the Khitan? Why is he coming to our Great Yan now? Isn't this seeking humiliation?"
"Wang Mengxian was the Minister of Rites. In addition to Wang Mengxian, Zhang Jiali, who was once a Hanlin scholar, also defected to the Khitan. These traitors are all scholars who are well-read in the poems of Confucius and Mencius and are proficient in etiquette and literature! It seems that scholars are spineless. They say they are loyal to the emperor and love their country, but when they see that the situation is not right, they kneel down faster than anyone else."
The person who said this was a military general. He did not get along well with civil officials and especially looked down on those weak and powerless scholars.
Now that I have this opportunity, I must, of course, make some ridicule.
"Who said that all scholars are spineless? Why don't you talk about my brother's loyalty before his death, when he cursed the traitors? Why don't you talk about the former Minister of War and others who committed suicide? Why do you have to talk about Wang Mengxian who studied poetry in vain?"
"Moreover, when did people like Wang Mengxian ever qualify to be called literati? Literati have the character of literati. Wang Mengxian sold out his country for fame and served the Khitan. He is nothing but a fence-sitter and a villain. How can a villain be called a literati?"
"There are beggars who are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and there are ministers who are traitors. It can be seen that whether one is truly loyal to the country has nothing to do with one's status and position, but only with one's character. Do you dare to say that there are no military generals who collaborate with the enemy?"
Zhang Zexian stood up at this time and directly refuted the general's point of view.
The civil officials present originally hated Zhang Zexian, but at this moment no one spoke out to refute him.
Since learning the news of his brother Zhang Chengxian's death, Zhang Zexian has been crying bitterly at home.
Now that he was alone, he had nothing to worry about.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
When this voice was heard, the court immediately fell silent. All officials returned to their seats and saluted Xie Lang.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty live forever and enjoy eternal happiness!"
Xie Lang walked into the Weiyang Palace wearing a black crown with twelve chapters. He exuded an awe-inspiring aura that made people feel he was unfathomable.
He slowly sat on the throne and asked all the ministers to stand up.
"Announcement, Khitan envoy Wang Mengxian is here to see you."
When this voice was heard, all the ministers looked towards the entrance of the hall.
Wang Mengxian, wearing the scarlet official uniform of Dayan, walked in holding a letter written by Li Chongguang.
As soon as the ministers saw him, anger was evident on their faces. If this was not a court meeting, they would have wanted to rush forward and tear Wang Mengxian to pieces.
It was ironic to see that the clothes he was wearing were actually the official uniform of Dayan.
"Hey, isn't this a Khitan running dog? Why are you still wearing our Dayan official uniform? Take it off quickly and don't insult this official uniform."
Zhang Zexian started to sneer as soon as Wang Mengxian walked in, without caring about the occasion.
After hearing what Zhang Zexian said, some officials couldn't help laughing.
This exiled immortal has no other skills, but he is great at scolding people.
However, when it comes to scolding Wang Mengxian, they can only say that he scolded him well.
When Wang Mengxian heard this taunt, he appeared to be calm, but he actually felt very uncomfortable.
He had thought about this scene before he came, but no matter how he refused or evaded, Yelu Bei still let him come.
But fortunately, he still has Li Chongguang's letter with him, and he came here on Li Chongguang's orders.
"I greet Her Royal Highness the Princess and all the gentlemen."
Wang Mengxian saluted Xie Lang and the court officials, but it was not the etiquette between a monarch and his subjects, nor was it the etiquette of a Khitan envoy meeting the king of Dayan.
It was just the etiquette of a court official meeting a princess.
When the ministers saw this scene, they all frowned.
Xie Lang's expression was still as calm as ever, and he looked calmly at Wang Mengxian who was standing below.
Xie Lang was very calm, but that didn't mean that others were calm as well.
Wang Linxian had been resentful of him for a long time. He was a traitor who sold out his country for personal gain, and now he was so arrogant.
So he scolded directly.
"How dare you! This is my great emperor of the Great Yan. You Khitan running dog, kneel down and kowtow!"
