Chapter 200 No Visits Allowed
The next day, the atmosphere in the court was already a little heavy due to the many complicated affairs in recent times. Lu Ming stepped forward, bowed his hands solemnly and said: "Your Highness, I have come to report a matter. Yesterday, my residence was attacked by assassins."
When Murong Xuanyi heard this, his face instantly became extremely gloomy, his eyes were full of anger, he slammed the table in front of him and shouted: "This is simply outrageous! This is the emperor's feet, this is an important place in the capital, and such a daring thing happened. Those assassins really have no respect for the law and act recklessly!"
After that, Murong Xuanyi looked at Han Han, the commander of the imperial guards, with a stern and unquestionable tone, and ordered: "Han Han, I now order you to send more people immediately to strengthen the comprehensive protection of the emperor. The emperor is in poor health and is receiving treatment. We must not let those assassins take advantage of the opportunity to disturb the emperor's recovery, otherwise, I will only hold you responsible!"
Han Han did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped out of the line, knelt heavily on one knee, and replied with a serious look on his face: "I will obey your order! I will do my best to protect the emperor and never let those villains get close to the emperor!"
Murong Xuanyi frowned slightly, glanced at the ministers in the court, and then his expression became more serious, and he said solemnly: "I'm sure all the ministers know that the emperor's condition has worsened recently, and the situation is really worrying.
In order to allow the emperor to recover from his illness without being disturbed by the outside world, I have decided that from now on, no one is allowed to visit the emperor during the period of treatment. Anyone who disobeys will be punished for disturbing the palace and will not be tolerated! I hope everyone can obey this order, otherwise don't blame me for not remembering our friendship. "
Upon hearing this, all the ministers nodded their heads in agreement. The court was silent for a moment, with only a solemn atmosphere enveloping everyone.
Prince Shun was filled with dissatisfaction. He had originally thought that he could perform well during his father's illness so as to gain some capital for himself in the future. But now that Murong Xuanyi had given this order, all his opportunities were cut off at once.
In this way, Murong Xuanyi would be the only one in power in the court. His current posture was no longer a regent, but was no different from the emperor. How could he accept this? The more he thought about it, the stronger the resentment in his heart became.
Prince Shun then stepped forward and said, "Fifth Brother, isn't it a bit inappropriate that the ministers can't visit? Father is ill now, and the ministers and the princes are worried about him. If we don't even have the opportunity to visit him, it's unreasonable.
Besides, what if the emperor misses a minister or prince during his convalescence and wants to summon him to ask about court affairs? Your ban will block the communication channel between the emperor and the ministers, which may not be conducive to the handling of court affairs. "
In the court, after hearing what Prince Shun said, all the ministers and princes exchanged glances with each other, and then, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, they all nodded slightly, with expressions of approval on their faces and sounds of agreement from their mouths.
Murong Xuanyi's eyes turned cold, and he looked at Prince Shun with a warning tone: "Royal brother, I issued this order so that my father can recover from his illness in peace without being disturbed by the outside world.
You think it's inappropriate, but can you guarantee that those people with ulterior motives won't use the name of visiting to do something illegal? Nowadays, assassins are rampant, and they even dare to openly attack Lord Lu's house. The emperor can't afford any mistakes. This ban must be enforced, no discussion."
When Prince Shun heard this, his face changed slightly, but he still did not give up and continued to argue: "Old Fifth, what you said is too serious. The ministers in the court are all loyal people. How could they do such a treasonous thing? You generalize like this, but it chills the hearts of the ministers.
Moreover, as a prince, I am extremely concerned about my father's safety. If I were to arrange the visit, I would be able to ensure that it is foolproof and would not allow the assassins to take advantage of the situation. "
Murong Xuanyi frowned, feeling annoyed by Prince Shun's nagging. He snorted coldly and said, "Prince Shun, I have made up my mind about my father's safety. You keep saying that you can ensure that everything is foolproof, but who can guarantee that?
If you really care about your father, you should obey my orders and cooperate with me instead of questioning my decision here."
Prince Shun was somewhat embarrassed by Murong Xuanyi's ruthless rebuttal, but he couldn't get angry in front of him, so he could only suppress the anger in his heart and said through gritted teeth:
"Old Fifth, you are now relying on your status as the regent to act so arbitrarily. Don't forget that our father is still on the throne. After all, the world belongs to our father. If you act like this, aren't you afraid that our father will find out and blame you in the future?"
Murong Xuanyi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he took a step forward, his aura suddenly emanating from him, and he said coldly: "Prince Shun, everything I have done is for my father, for the country. If you continue to act unreasonably and disrupt the order of the court, don't blame me for disregarding our brotherhood and punishing you for the crime of treason!"
Prince Shun was overwhelmed by the momentum and subconsciously took a step back, but the unwillingness in his eyes became more and more obvious. However, he did not dare to say anything more at this moment. He snorted coldly, turned around and retreated to his seat, but secretly planned in his heart that he must find an opportunity to reduce the prestige of Murong Xuanyi, the regent. He must not be allowed to do whatever he wants in the court.
When the ministers in the court saw the two men arguing, they all fell silent, not daring to make a sound. They just hoped that the storm would be quelled quickly. The solemn atmosphere seemed to become even thicker, making it hard for everyone to breathe.
After George Han received Murong Xuanyi's order, he did not dare to delay at all. He immediately dispatched people vigorously and quickly surrounded the Yangxin Palace. No one was allowed to approach without the clear order of the Regent.
In the imperial study, Murong Xuanyi was sitting at the desk, concentrating on reviewing piles of memorials. After dealing with many court affairs, he summoned the eunuch who usually served the emperor to come and question him.
When the young eunuch heard the summons, he hurried into the imperial study, bowed respectfully as soon as he entered the room, and then stood aside with his head bowed, waiting for the regent to ask questions.
Murong Xuanyi raised his eyes to look at the young eunuch, and asked with a concerned tone: "How has the emperor been these past two days? Tell me the truth, and don't hide anything."
The young eunuch bowed again and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, the emperor has been eating well these past two days, but he has not been sleeping well at night, often tossing and turning and having trouble falling asleep."
Murong Xuanyi frowned even more tightly when he heard this, with a trace of worry flashing in his eyes. He ordered coldly: "You can't sleep restlessly, which will greatly affect the recovery of the emperor's dragon body. Go and light a few more goose pear tent incense in the emperor's bedroom later. This incense has a good sleep-inducing effect."
The young eunuch took the order and left the imperial study.
