Chapter 521 Contact
Jing Tianlie secretly wielded his martial energy in his body, and the pressure from the peak of the Martial Emperor, the generals next to him trembled unconsciously, and the civil officials retreated far away.
But Long Chen resisted the pressure, his face was as usual, and he bowed according to the etiquette.
Jing Tianlie was surprised: he could withstand the pressure of his general, without any fear in his eyes.
He thought Long Chen was just a eunuch who could take advantage of tricks and hate the empress and princess, but he didn't expect that he was so brave and had a high level of cultivation.
"You are Long Cheng'en?"
Jing Tianlie's face was slightly angry and his tone was gloomy.
Long Chen smiled and said, "I am the emperor's imperial court, the Minister of Revenue, and the general manager of the harem, Long Chengen."
Jing Tianlie does not use respectful titles, but Long Chen uses the word "original official".
Others are afraid of Jing Tianlie, so why would Long Chen be afraid?
The Long Family Army fought with the Chiyan Army, and Jing Tianlie was beaten to vomit blood.
In Long Chen's eyes, the mighty and prosperous general in front of him was just a defeated general.
The civil and military ministers of the court were all surprised. They did not expect Long Chen to call himself "the official" in front of Jing Tianlie.
Bai Qiulian, the Minister of War, who was waiting to see the joke, was also surprised. Long Chen confronted Bai Qiulian in the Censorate. Bai Qiulian could not do anything to Long Chen, so he wanted to use the hands of an adulterer to deal with Long Chen.
Unexpectedly, Long Chen was also afraid of Jing Tianlie, so Bai Qiulian was disappointed.
Jing Tianlie wanted to give Long Chen a warning, but he didn't expect that Long Chen would not buy it, but instead made Jing Tianlie a little embarrassed.
The ministers in the court had surprisingly consistent thoughts at this moment: this dead eunuch has courage!
Jing Tianlie snorted coldly, turned to salute the three princesses: "I have seen three princesses."
Di Yu raised his hand slightly and nodded.
Di Xing's face moved and raised his head slightly, which was considered a return gift.
Di Luoxi raised his hand coldly, that's all.
Jing Tianlie stood at the top of the generals, at the front of the general train, and Di Luoxi stood in the second place.
Just when everyone thought they could wait for the empress to go to court, a fat man walked in outside the door, wearing court clothes, which was Jing Heng.
Jing Heng entered the court wearing court uniform, which surprised everyone.
He was dismissed from office by the empress and was already a white person, but now he is wearing the former Minister of Revenue's ward robes and entering the hall. What does this mean?
The ministers in the court each had their own guesses, but no one spoke.
When Emperor Luoxi saw Jing Heng coming in in court clothes, he was so angry that he was about to curse. Long Chen quickly winked and asked her to hold back.
Di Luoxi gritted his teeth and gasped, trying hard not to see Jing Heng.
Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan also looked ugly and were indignant.
Jing Tianlie stood there as if nothing happened.
Jing Heng came in and greeted the ministers around him.
"Mr. Liu, Mr. Li, Mr. Bai"
The other ministers were at a loss and didn't know how to deal with this situation. They had to smile and give a greeting, not even wanting to say anything.
At this time, the empress came out of the inner court and sat on the phoenix chair, with the shadow phoenix standing beside her.
"Go to court!"
Yingfeng shouted.
The ministers in the court worshiped one after another, saying, "Greetings to the Lord."
The empress glanced at the ministers in the hall, her eyes ranging from Jing Tianlie to Long Chen, and finally to Jing Heng.
The empress's eyes flashed slightly, but her face remained unchanged, as if she hadn't seen Jing Heng.
"Let's go flat."
All the ministers stood upright.
The empress said, "The general guarded the Jade Buddha Pass and repelled the attacks of Xixia several times, and made great contributions."
"Today I will return to the court, I will give you a thousand taels of gold and one hundred thousand taels of silver to commend you."
Ying Feng turned around and greeted her, and the two palace maids carried the boxes out and placed them in the court.
"Thank you, Master."
Jing Tianlie just bowed.
The ministers in the court congratulated each other, but Jing Tianlie just laughed dryly.
Obviously, what Jing Tianlie wants is not money.
"Send the reward to the General's Mansion."
The empress smiled, and Yingfeng immediately arranged to move the box out of the court and send it to the General's Mansion.
After the move, the empress said, "Okay, let's start the court discussion, what's going to start?"
The ministers in the court stood without saying a word, and their eyes were only wandering on Jing Tianlie and Long Chen.
Bai Qiulian, the Minister of War, glanced at Long Chen, then looked at Jing Tianlie, then walked out and bowed: "The emperor has made progress in the murder of General Shui Han."
Speaking of Shui Han’s case, the ministers in the court were in a state of chaos.
The empress asked, “How is the interrogation progressing?”
Bai Qiulian said, "I have interrogated Long Chengen and found that his confession was inconsistent with the introductory words, and there is a major suspect in the crime."
Di Luoxi stood up with his eyebrows and walked out to scold, "Bai Qiulian, what is arbitration and confession, what is a confession? Be careful when speaking!"
Long Chen just cooperated with the inquiry, but Bai Qiulian said it was an arraignment and confession. This was obviously treating Long Chen as a prisoner, and in front of the empress and civil and military officials, which was too much.
Bai Anning, the censor of the Censorate, also advised: "Shangshu Bai, don't put off his hats."
Long Chen walked out and said, "Master, the bitch Bai Qiu is practicing nonsense, crazy, and there are many rumors outside. What he does is injustice and despise. I think this bitch is detrimental to the weather when standing in the court, so please beat him out."
The battle has begun, and Long Chen has no reason to retreat.
If Bai Qiulian dares to stand up and provoke, Long Chen will beat him back.
The ministers in the court were very surprised. They all knew that Bai Qiulian was Jing Tianlie's pawn. Long Chen actually called Bai Qiulian a bitch in public and dared to mention Bai Qiulian's affair with Jing Tianlie. This is a direct force Jing Tianlie! He is brave enough!
It turned out that many ministers in the court looked down on Long Chen and thought that he was the fourth princess's head.
Now that Long Chen is so tough, I feel a little impressed.
Bai Qiulian was so angry that he trembled all over and cursed: "Die eunuch, who do you think is crazy? What kind of indifference is evil!"
Long Chen sneered: "Old bitch, say you are crazy, say you are indifferent to the customs!"
The two ministers scolded each other, and Di Luoxi wanted to help Long Chen, but Di Xingwan secretly stepped on Di Luoxi and signaled her not to interfere.
"Okay, they are all ministers in the court and the six ministers. How can they be cursed in the court?"
"The matter is not finalized, so Mr. Bai should not put a hat on his own."
"The Censorate is the chief judge, let's talk about it."
The empress seems fair, and neither side favors him, but in fact she is biased towards Long Chen.
Bai Anning, the censor of the Censorate, walked out and said, "The emperor asked the emperor, and the empress asked the fourth princess, Long Shangshu, General Zhang and others, and also asked General Li Xiannan. Judging from their narrative, the cause of General Shui Han's death is indeed doubtful."
The ministers in the court were slightly turbulent and began to whisper.
Jing Heng, who was standing at the end of the queue, began to sweat on his back. He was worried that Shui Han's death was related to collusion with the enemy.
These days, Jing Tianlie asked about Shui Han, but Jing Heng just said he didn't know and it had nothing to do with him.
Jing Tianlie also thought it should be okay. Although his son is not good, he will not make a big fuss.
At this time, Jing Tianlie walked out and bowed: "Master, we are in the bloody battlefield, not seeking glory and wealth, but only seeking justice."
"General Shui Han has served the country for more than ten years. If he is really harmed by a traitor, he must give her an explanation and let her rest in peace!"
The Minister of Justice Hu Chengfu, Minister of Rites Wang He, Minister of Rites Xu Zhong, Minister of the Honglu Temple, and other ministers stood up together and said, "I think the general is saying so much, so I ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate the case and restore General Shuihan's innocence."
The Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War were all from Jing Tianlie, and the Ministry of Revenue was the same in the past.
Four of the six central tribes of the court, Jing Tianlie's power penetrated, no wonder this person was arrogant and domineering.
However, Long Chen couldn't understand why the empress had such a high level of cultivation, was pinned by Jing Tianlie?
