Chapter 232 Quick, ask for mercy for me
"Minister Li is absolutely right."
Everyone was just watching, but now Lu Sui has also arrived, and Minister Li of the Ministry of War was the first to stand up and speak for him.
The person who had been hesitating in his heart whether to stand up or not was motivated.
Then, Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Revenue also stood up and walked to the center: "Your Majesty, Young Marquis Lu understands that it is not easy for the Ministry of Revenue, and took the initiative to request that the military pay of the Swift Wind Camp be allocated last. As for the pensions for the casualties, I have the receipts. Every time, it was Young Marquis Lu who took the initiative to advance the payment. Your Majesty, I don't believe that someone like Young Marquis Lu, who is so wholehearted and willing to devote his life to the Swift Wind Camp, would cause tens of thousands of soldiers to lose their lives because of his own selfishness."
"What Minister Zhou said makes sense. If only a few people died, it would be difficult to investigate. But now there are tens of thousands of people. The dumbest way is to go to the Swift Wind Camp to verify the number of people, rather than letting rumors ferment and bring great trouble to Young Marquis Lu, the Wanning Marquisate, and the Swift Wind Camp." With Minister Zhou's words, Minister Li immediately gained confidence and bowed down. "If this matter is left unresolved, the same thing will happen again in the future. In the future, one person's spit can kill a loyal person. Please investigate this matter thoroughly, Your Majesty."
"I second the proposal."
Everyone turned their heads and found that it was Feng Xiang who spoke.
Now, everyone couldn't sit still anymore.
They immediately stood up, knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "I second the motion."
"You, you..."
The emperor was shocked by the scene before him. He stammered a few times and finally looked at Madam Yuan and Madam Zhang angrily. "Come here, drag these two gossiping women out and torture them severely. I want to know where this rumor came from."
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I didn't know. I..."
"Your Majesty, my wife just believed what others said at the time. She definitely did not..."
"Yuan Hanshu, Lu Sui is your son-in-law. When you two heard this rumor, not only did you not stop it immediately, but you ran to the Wanning Marquis's mansion to spread it. Come, take Yuan Hanshu down and interrogate him together!"
"Your Majesty, I am innocent."
Yuan Hanshu was dumbfounded. When he was dragged out by the guards, he immediately shouted at Yuan Buwei: "Buwei, come on, plead for me. Tell the emperor that this is all a misunderstanding."
"Father, even if it was a misunderstanding, the harm you have done to the young marquis has already been done." Yuan Buwei, who had been keeping her head down and not speaking, now looked at her father, "And you said that if I encounter difficulties in Wanning Marquis's Mansion one day in the future, don't expect you to save me."
"Oh, how can Lord Yuan be so cruel to his own daughter?"
"Although a daughter belongs to her husband's family after she gets married, if she doesn't have the support of her natal family, can she have a good life in her husband's family?"
"Yuan Buwei, what nonsense are you talking about, you..."
The furious Yuan Hanshu was about to say something, but the next second he was rudely dragged out of the hall by the guards.
"Your Majesty, although you are willing to clear Sui'er's name, I really don't want to see a young man die before me, so please take him back..."
"Father, what are you talking about?" Lu Sui interrupted Wan Ning Hou abruptly. "If I were a coward, I would not have taken on the responsibility of the Gale Camp. Of course, I know that I was indeed careless in this expedition, so Your Majesty, please give me a chance to make amends."
I told all this to the father and son.
The emperor felt chest tightness.
"Lu Sui, you are just a waste now, what can you do?" Princess Jinghe sneered, "Brother Emperor, in my opinion..."
"Jinghe, when did you become so talkative?" The emperor glanced at his sister coldly. When she stopped talking, he looked at Lu Sui. "Lu Sui, I know that you are loyal to the court. I understand it in my heart."
"Your Majesty, I am not afraid of death. Even if I have to die, I will die on the battlefield."
Lu Sui's eyes were burning. The next second he supported the chair handles with both hands, then gritted his teeth and stood up shakily under everyone's shocked gaze.
The emperor was even more shocked and his pupils dilated.
But the next second, Lu Sui fell heavily to the ground.
"Young Marquis!" Yuan Buwei immediately knelt on the ground, supported him, and looked at him with red eyes.
"Lu Sui, why are you doing this?" Wan Ninghou's eyes were red, "Do you really want me to send you off when you are old?"
“Father, you have always thought that I am useless. Shouldn’t you be happy about my current situation?” Lu Sui laughed, and his smile looked extremely miserable, especially when he just wanted to stand up but fell heavily to the ground, which aroused the sympathy of countless people present.
Such a young general who can't even stand up, has the imperial court and the people of the world in his head.
They said he had ulterior motives and would rebel.
There must be an ulterior motive.
"Lu Sui, that's enough. I saw it and I know it."
The emperor came to his senses and realized that if he agreed to Marquis Wanning's words, he would hurt the hearts of all the civil and military officials.
Getting rid of Lu Sui would certainly not shake his position.
But if the civil and military officials become disloyal, how can he continue to be the emperor?
"emperor……"
"Pass on my order. If there are any rumors about Lu Sui in the future, they will all be arrested and tortured in prison." The emperor turned around and ordered his personal eunuch, "Minister Zhou, you must prepare a detailed compensation list as soon as possible. After I review it, the Ministry of Revenue will immediately transfer the military pay to the Jifeng Camp."
"The minister obeys the order."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. On behalf of the soldiers of the Gale Camp, I thank you." Lu Sui kowtowed with joy and said, "Your Majesty, today is your birthday. I have a gift for you."
"Oh? Lu Sui, what have you prepared?"
Lu Sui wrote many memorials to the emperor, explaining various details of the battle, but what the emperor really wanted was valuable intelligence.
So he had been waiting for a good opportunity.
And today is the day.
Lu Sui took out a memorial from his pocket and said, "Your Majesty, please take a look."
The emperor asked the eunuch to bring it to him and unfolded it. He wanted to hide his excitement, but when he saw the contents of the letter, he was really excited: "You... Lu Sui, you really..."
"Yes, Your Majesty, although I was ambushed by the enemy, I beheaded the enemy leader and used Princess Yayue of Xirong to take a fake city defense map back with her. As long as the enemy believes it, they will send a large number of troops. As long as Dazhao sends troops to ambush in advance, they can be wiped out in one fell swoop."
"it is good."
Even if the emperor was dissatisfied with Lu Sui, the war with the Western Rong for so many years had always been a major concern for him.
"But I'm afraid I can't go to the battlefield now, so I want to recommend someone to the emperor." Lu Sui looked at the cold young man who was sitting in the crowd and had been drinking alone since he entered the door.
