The strongest nine thousand years old

Chapter 34: The ministers died in remonstrance, and the prey entered the circle

"The defeat of the Northern Territory is due to Xiao Li's unshirkable responsibility!"

"Xiao Yourong used her beauty to serve the king, so Xiao Li had the opportunity to be independent. Xiao Yourong should also be punished."

"Your Majesty is the culprit! Your Majesty has failed the country and you should issue an imperial edict to censure him!"

"Now only Yuwen Qing can turn the tide and save the collapsing empire!"

"Reuse Yuwen Qing!"

All the officials rushed to Yan Yunzheng's bedroom and started making loud noises through the door.

Chen Dong and Yan Yunzheng looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes.

"The Queen is really impatient." Xiao Yourong had already learned of the entire plan and knew that Yuwen Rou had become a pawn in this plan.

She now felt some pity for the queen.

Yan Yunzheng said calmly: "I will see what the Yuwen family has in mind."

As the three men left the bedroom, a group of ministers outside immediately started shouting.

"Enough!" Yan Yunzheng shouted in a deep voice, with a dissatisfied look on his face, "You broke into the harem by force, which was already disrespectful to me, and now you are making a loud noise, don't you really take me seriously?"

The Imperial Censor Wei Liang, who was recommended, said with a stern face, "I heard the news of the defeat in the northern border and was worried about state affairs, so I broke into the palace. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"The defeat in the northern border has affected tens of millions of people, and it is also related to the northern gate of our Great Yan. Your Majesty, please send troops to help as soon as possible and execute the incompetent Xiao Li on the spot to reassure the people!"

Hearing that Xiao Li was going to be killed, Xiao Yourong became anxious, "Who said that the Northern Territory was defeated? The Northern Territory is clearly..."

Chen Dong coughed heavily, interrupting Xiao Yourong. This woman is too fierce. I asked you to cooperate in acting, and this is how you act? With this acting skill, she deserves the title of Rotten Apple Film Queen.

After being interrupted by Chen Dong, Xiao Yourong suddenly came to his senses and his face turned pale.

"Your Highness, the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. This matter also involves your brother, so you should stay away for the time being." Chen Dong said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yourong immediately returned to the house, but listened to the noise outside through the door.

Chen Dong looked around at the ministers present and said calmly, "My Lords, your Majesty has not received any news of the defeat in the North. How did you know about it?"

"Could it be that you have planted spies in the North? That's really overreaching."

Everyone was shocked and beads of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads.

If you don't answer this well, it will be a serious crime that will cost you your head!

Everyone looked at Wei Liang. After all, it was Wei Liang who had initiated the invasion of the palace to make suggestions.

Wei Liang secretly groaned in his heart. He became the leader only because he received news and benefits from the Yuwen family.

Now it seems that the first bird to stick its head out will be shot, and he is doomed.

"I am worried about the affairs of state, so I am trying to find out the news from the northern border." Wei Liang gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and you are not able to hear or see anything. You have also been deceived by villains, so you don't know."

"The villain is deceiving? Are you talking about Xiao Dongzi?" Yan Yunzheng asked with a smile.

Wei Liang nodded decisively, "Yes!"

"Xiao Dongzi is loyal to me and will never do anything to deceive me. Since Wei Aiqing is so sure that the northern border was defeated, then bring out the evidence. At the very least, bring the person here and confront him face to face so that I can prove the truth."

Wei Liang had no evidence, let alone witnesses.

Yan Yunzheng said coldly: "Can't produce it? I will regard it as a false accusation. Go to the Heavenly Prison to accompany Fang Han!"

Wei Liang's heart suddenly turned cold. If he was thrown into the Sky Prison, he would never be able to get out!

With Fang Han in prison, the entire Fang family is gradually being eroded, and the family's decline is a foregone conclusion. Even if Fang Han can be released in the end, it's all over.

Wei Liang didn't want to end up like that.

He turned his head to look at Yu Wenming, trying desperately to wink at him.

This matter was instigated by the Yuwen family. The Yuwen family did not come forward, so all the pressure fell on him. What is going on?

Yu Wenming is a branch of the Yuwen family and is also a civil official who was promoted.

After seeing Wei Liang's look, he couldn't help but sigh, and said with a folded hand: "Your Majesty, there is no smoke without fire. The news of the defeat in the North has spread throughout the court and the country. Your Majesty should make arrangements early."

"What arrangements are you making? An order to investigate Xiao Li? If Xiao Li comes with a great victory, do you know what this order means? If merits are not rewarded but punished instead, who will work hard and risk their lives for our Great Yan in the future?" Yan Yunzheng sneered.

Without any evidence, Yan Yunzheng is invincible.

Yu Wenming said slowly, "Your Majesty can send a trusted member to the northern border to supervise Xiao Li. If Xiao Li wins, you can issue an order to reward him. If Xiao Li loses, you can immediately issue an order to arrest him and replace him with another person to lead the Northern Guard Army."

Yu Wenming gave Yan Yunzheng two plans, but the dispatch of this confidant caught Yan Yunzheng off guard.

Since most of the ministers in the court were inclined towards the Yuwen family, Yan Yunzheng had few people to send, and Chen Dong was one of them.

If we send people who support the Yuwen family, the result will slide into an unpredictable abyss.

"What if I don't send anyone?" Yan Yunzheng asked coldly.

Yu Wenming knelt on the ground and said calmly: "I will die to advise you!"

Wei Liang and the others also knelt on the ground and said in unison: "I will die to advise you!"

"You! You guys!" Yan Yunzheng was forced to abdicate by the crowd, his face flushed and he was furious.

If she had not been worried that no one would take care of the affairs of state, she would have already issued an order to have all these people beheaded!

"Once the imperial examination is over, it will be time to settle the accounts!" Yan Yunzheng said angrily in his heart.

"Your Majesty!" Chen Dong suddenly said, "I am willing to go to the northern border to help your Majesty and Dayan with their worries."

Yan Yunzheng felt warm in his heart, "Little Dongzi, you are indeed loyal to me."

Chen Dong smiled and said, "I have always been considerate of others."

Seeing Chen Dong volunteering, Yu Wenming raised a faint smile and glanced at Wei Liang.

"Since Eunuch Chen has recommended himself, I will also recommend someone to go with you. If the northern border is defeated, he can take over Xiao Li's command of the army." At Yu Wenming's eye signal, Wei Liang stood up.

"I recommend Yuwen Qing."

"Yuwen Qing is the bravest among the three armies. He is indeed suitable."

"I second the proposal."

Yuwen Qing did not show up, but everyone unanimously nominated him.

"General Yuwen Qing also has to make preparations for the navy. I think General Yuwen Liang is a good choice." Chen Dong said with a turn of his eyes.

Yan Yunzheng and Chen Dong already had a tacit understanding, and as soon as they saw his expression, they knew that he was planning something bad.

"Yuwen Liang is indeed good, what do you think?" Yan Yunzheng said.

In the absence of Yuwen Qing, Yuwen Liang would be his replacement.

Yu Wenming was the first to speak: "Your Majesty is wise."

Others followed suit and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Yu Wenliang's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said: "I will fight hard for Dayan and keep the soldiers and civilians in the northern border safe!"

Yan Yunzheng's face showed no sadness or joy, and he said calmly: "Since General Yuwen has such ambition, let's set off with Xiao Dongzi now."

"I obey your order!" Yuwen Liang said ecstatically.

Chen Dong glanced at Yu Wenliang, who was a big, strong man, not worth worrying about. But Yu Wenming, on the other hand, looked simple and honest, but in fact he was cunning. His squinting eyes flashed a gleam from time to time, and it was obvious that he was thinking about something.

However, Chen Dong is not someone who can be easily provoked. This "defeat in the Northern Border" is a sign of bad things!

"You gentlemen have threatened to die, leaving Your Majesty in a dilemma. Your Majesty has compromised with you gentlemen for the sake of Dayan. Shouldn't you gentlemen express your gratitude?"

Express your opinion?

Everyone looked at each other.
