Chapter 6 The Great Court

Ma Jin took the imperial chariot out of the Yangxin Hall and headed towards Hanyuan Hall. Wang Chengen came forward and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Lord Lu is here to report that the inner court has been cleaned up, and no one has missed the net. He has led the main force of the inner guard to ambush around Hanyuan Hall."

"Where is Yang Zaixing?"

"Report to Your Majesty, all the civil and military officials have entered the palace for court. General Yang has ordered the four gates of the palace to be closed. He personally led his army to the front office to capture the rebel Sima Mingguang." Wang An bent down and bowed.

At this time, a gust of cold wind blew, and Ma Jin realized that his back was already wet, and waved his hand and said, "I understand. Go and tell Lu Bing that he would wait for my orders, and don't act rashly."

This was the first morning court for Ma Jin to travel over to become the emperor, and he had to do a "big thing". His nervousness, excitement, fear and fear suddenly diluted his fatigue that had not been asleep all night.

The Great Zhou ancestors usually ordered the morning dynasty around the Yin hour, but because today is the Great dynasty, there are many civil and military officials, so the dynasty was delayed, and the "Three-Dong Drum" began to be sounded at the Mao hour.

After the three drums on Xuanwu Gate, the court officials who participated in the grand dynasty meeting stood quietly and divided into civil and military lines to reach the Hanyuan Hall.

At this time, an eunuch walked slowly to the stairs outside the hall and shouted to the ministers who stopped below:

"The emperor is here, and all officials enter the court!"

After this shout, the civil and military officials lined up under the Heavenly Step of Hanyuan Hall, they rushed forward together.

The civil servant was led by the chief minister Chen Ting to "up the left step", while the military officer was led by the British Duke Li Shifang to "up the right step", and they all entered the Hanyuan Hall to stand.

"Your Majesty, come to the court!"

When Ma Jin stepped into Hanyuan Hall, Wang Chengen's sharp voice sounded ahead of him.

"Long live your life, long live your life, long live your life!" All the civil and military officials in the hall knelt on the ground.

Ma Jingao looked down at the hall from the nine-layer cloud platform, and saw the hall with beams, gold bricks paved on the floor, and seventy-two golden cloud dragon pillars, including treasure elephants, cranes and incense pavilions. The giant dragon lying on the top of the hall, and the mouth of the pearls was a row of royal atmosphere. There were countless civil and military officials kneeling on the ground on both sides, shouting long live the mountain.

Is this the feeling of being an emperor? He is a high-spirited person and looks down on the world, and life and death are all in his heart. Ma Jin suddenly fell in love with this feeling.

With Wang Chengen's sharp voice, the civil and military knelt on the ground and thanked him, they stood up. Today's grand dynasty meeting is just a court meeting of etiquette and will not discuss state affairs. They just talk about the things that have been arranged at the court meeting.

After the cabinet officials told the things that had been arranged, the hall suddenly became quiet. A strange sense of depression spread out. Ma Jin, after taking a few deep breaths, barely maintained a smile and said:

"My dear friends, do you have any news?"

As soon as Ma Jin's words fell, the civil servant stepped a purple robe and bowed to Ma Jin and said:

"I have a copy! I will start the report!"

Ma Jin narrowed his eyes and saw that it was Chen Weiyong, the Minister of Rites. This guy was Li Shifang's loyal confidant. A cold light flashed in Ma Jin's eyes and he said with a voice.

"Chen Aiqing, what's the matter?"

"I am telling Your Majesty that since Your Majesty ascended the throne, my Great Zhou has been alive, with sufficient treasury and the people living in peace, and there has been a prosperous era. The scene of the Great Zhou today depends on the assistance of Mr. Li of the Assistant State to assist Your Majesty in regulating the mountains and rivers and shepherding the people. Therefore, I ask Your Majesty to obey the wishes of the people and repay the achievements of the Assistant State."

After hearing Chen Weiyong's words, Ma Jin was furious. He was so kind to assist and said coldly:

"Then how do you pay for the merits of assisting the country? How can you teach me?"

Chen Weiyong was stunned. The script was different. Shouldn’t the little emperor be angry and accused him? Why did it become like this? Ma Jin’s words made Chen Weiyong feel very uncomfortable.

"I ask Your Majesty to follow the story of Emperor Cheng Xuan Xiu to repay the work of assisting the country."

Chen Ting, the chief assistant who was the first civil servant, turned around and looked at Chen Weiyong standing in the hall with his eyes wide open and shouted loudly: "Mr. Chen, be careful, do you know what you are talking about? Why don't you retreat quickly?"

As he said that, he turned toward Yuntai and bowed, "My dear..."

"Gei Master, don't say much, you go back." Ma Jin waved his hand and asked Chen Ting to retreat. Chen Ting wanted to speak but stopped. Looking at Ma Jin on the jade stairs, sighed, bowed to Ma Jin with a complicated face, and retreated back to the lineup.

Ma Jin looked around the ministers in the hall and said slowly: "What do you think?"

"What Chen Butang said is very true. The support of the country is hardworking and great contributions. I think it can be awarded the title of King Yu of the Assistant State, and I will be a vassal in the Shendu." As soon as Ma Jin finished speaking, another person came out of the military officer's office. When Ma Jin saw that he was the deputy envoy of the Right Office of the Governor's Office and the Censor of the Dianjun Li Guoyu.

When Ma Jin remembers the original owner, he naturally knows that what he told was the story of Emperor Cheng of Emperor Cheng of the Han Empire, the first unified empire in the Eastern Region, and the powerful minister Xuan Xiu. At that time, Emperor Cheng of Han believed in the method of immortality and meditated all day long. A great official Xuan Xiu was proficient in the art of alchemy, and Emperor Cheng was very fond of. Emperor Cheng used Xuan Xiu as the prime minister to entrust national affairs and decide on all major national affairs. In order to keep Xuan Xiu by his side, Emperor Cheng even granted the capital of the Han Dynasty to Xuan Xiu. Xuan Xiu was powerful in this way. A few years later, he replaced Emperor Cheng and destroyed the Great Xuan Dynasty established by the Han Dynasty. For this reason, the huge Han Empire was divided into pieces and the land of the Eastern Region returned to the Warring States Period. The Daxuan Dynasty, one of the six powerful countries in the East Land, was established by Xuan Xiu back then.

Ma Jinsizhi was furious and looked at Li Shifang, who was standing at the top of the military officer. He closed his eyes and pondered outside the sky, as if what they were saying had nothing to do with me.

"I'm asking Your Majesty to be promoted to the title of King Yu of the Assistant Kingdom!" At this time, a shouting brought Ma Jin back to his senses. When he saw that less than half of the court officials were kneeling on the ground, he asked Ma Jin to issue an order to enthrone Li Shifang. Ma Jin's blood was surging, and he held Ma Jin's hands tightly and secretly calmed his mind and glanced at the ministers in the palace.

I saw that more than half of the court officials knelt in the place, and only a few local governors and generals who returned to Beijing participated in it. The rest were stunned and at a loss. Ma Jin was determined to make him feel as long as the local officials did not participate. As for the ministers of the court, Ma Jin's eyes were so murderous.

"What do you mean by the country?" Ma Jin sat upright on the dragon throne and said coldly when he saw Li Shifang.

"My Majesty, please be dictatorial in your holy heart! The old minister must not have any other thoughts." Li Shifang heard Ma Jin's question and bowed to Ma Jin.

"Okay! OK! Fuguo is worthy of being a loyal minister of my Great Zhou!" Li Shifang's shamelessness made Ma Jin laugh anxiously.

"But I think the reward you said is far from enough to the loyalty of the Fuguo Kingdom. I have a better reward. I don't know if Fuguo Kingdom wants it?"

Li Shifang was stunned. He didn't know what Ma Jin wanted to do. Did the little emperor think he could turn the tables and bowed and said:

"Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the king, and the old minister dare not refuse!"

When Ma Jin heard this, his lips pursed slightly, and a sarcastic look flashed by, and he said slowly:

"I will give you a prison for the Fuguo Kingdom, so how can I spend my old age?"

As soon as Ma Jin's words fell, the whole court exploded instantly.

The people in the hall, whether they were standing or kneeling, were stunned and looked at each other. They never expected that the cowardly and incompetent emperor would dare to face the powerful Li Shifang like this.

"It's ridiculous!"

"Your Majesty, are you crazy about gaining and losing your heart!"

"How dare you treat important officials of the auxiliary state like this!"

For a moment, many Li Shifang's confidants jumped out to accuse Ma Jin. When Li Shifang heard this, his face turned pale and his face became unkind. Ma Jin stared at the ministers who were sneering and questioning him with a sharp look.

"You are so brave, you dare to roar the hall and openly contradict Your Majesty!"

At this moment, a feminine and sharp voice filled with murderous aura sounded from his ears, and Wang Chengen pointed at His Highness and ministers with trembling all over his body and shouted loudly.

"Bold, where can we come from the unspermed person! We dare to insult the court ministers"

Li Shifang, who was standing in front of the front, changed his face and suddenly shouted at Wang Chengen.

"Come on! Take this pickled man!"

Li Shifang's eyes burst into murderous intent and shouted loudly to the guards outside the hall to take action. However, after waiting for a while, no one came in outside the hall, which shocked Li Shifang.

"Come here! Where are the guards outside the hall?" Li Shifang shouted repeatedly.

Ma Jin looked at Li Shifang coldly and shouted at him, as if he was watching a monkey show.

After telling how Li Shifang didn't understand at this time, the matter had been out of his control. Since it had reached this point, Li Shifang, who had already failed to do so, took off his disguise and turned ferocious and red, shouted at Ma Jin:

"Your Majesty, what a good method! You don't think that just a few thousand imperial guards can do anything to me?"

"You know what will happen if I die here!"

"What's the outcome of me? You can't see the support country! The person who came will take down all Li Shifang and his gang of traitors."

As soon as Ma Jin's words fell, teams of Jinyi Guards rushed in from all over the Hanyuan Hall and surrounded the court officials. Li Shifang and his ministers were shocked one by one, and many officials fell to the ground in panic and begged for mercy.

"Press them down and push them out to behead the Xuanwu Gate!" Ma Jin looked at the ugly ministers in the hall in disgust and ordered. His highness's guard immediately stepped forward to tie up and take away all the officials who were plotting against each other. After the guards retreated, the hall was empty for a moment.

At this moment, Yang Zaixing, covered in armor and covered in blood, entered the hall, knelt on one knee and saluted Ma Jin, and clasped his fists to Ma Jin and said:

"Report to Your Majesty, Yang Zaixing, the minister, led his army to capture the rebels. Now he has captured all the rebels in the front office of the palace, and no one has escaped. All have been detained in the palace. Please ask Your Majesty to judge!"

"Okay, okay, Yang Qing will live up to my will. To wipe out the rebellious party, it is really a contribution to the country."

"Wang Cheng'en, immediately issued an order to reward the rebels and the Ministry of War to reconcile the merits! There is no need to ask for an order!

"Yang Qing, I now appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the Palace Front Office, the General of the Yulin Guard, to accompany me."

As he said that, Ma Jin glanced at the remaining ministers in the hall.

"What do you think?"

"Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom!" No matter what his expression was, everyone in the hall fell to the ground and shouted at the wise Wisdom.

After signaling Yang Zaixing to get up, Ma Jin looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground with a cold look. The ministers knelt on the ground, and their hearts were filled with speculations, fearing that the emperor would take them all down with an order.

"Let's go flat"

The voice of Ma Jin talking came, and the ministers kneeling on the ground breathed a little relieved. After thanking him, he stood up and stood up.

"Wang Cheng'en, I'll send the order immediately!"

"Li Shifang is a rebellious thief, and is a great rebellion, and is a deceiving emperor and his superiors as a rebellion! The house is scouted! The three tribes of the barbarians will be executed immediately! Do not delay and reconcile!" Ma Jin did not have a trace of warm intention, and made the ministers in the palace feel as if they were in an ice cellar and cold.

After Wang Chengen bowed to receive the order, he turned around and passed the order.
