71. Chapter 71 Everyone agrees
Everyone was quite confused when they first heard the voice, and became even more confused when they saw a young man walking out of the back hall. However, no one dared to step forward to question it, because the purple official uniform made everyone intimidated.
The first person to react was Du Quan. Du Quan cautiously stepped forward and saluted and asked, "I haven't asked you who you are and why you are in the Jiedu Envoy's Palace?"
Chen Hao looked at everyone and then at Du Quan, who looked the same, so he smiled casually and said in a deep voice: "My surname is Chen Hao, and my courtesy name is Changfeng. I am a Hanlin bachelor. I came to Huainan this time to be ordered to depose the envoy."
…”
hiss……
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath. They had heard about this deposed emissary recently but didn't know whether it was true or not, but everyone had heard of Chen Hao's name.
Du Quan was also stunned. He didn't expect that the young man in front of him actually lived in the Imperial Academy, and he couldn't help but have a little more respect in his eyes. Because the position of Hanlin bachelor was not only a sinecure but also a status. In the late Tang Dynasty, one could enter the imperial court to worship the prime minister.
The first choice is to have a Hanlin background.
"It turns out to be Chen Hanlin, who has been famous for a long time. Can you..." Du Quan asked tentatively while respecting him.
Chen Hao understood that Du Quan meant what he said, so he smiled slightly and took out the imperial edict that Li Chen had given him before from his sleeve. When everyone saw the imperial edict, they hurriedly knelt down to listen to it.
Chen Hao read out loudly: "Wenchang governs the foundation, and the official is Wanglong. It belongs to the Chao Gang, and the selected people are here. Hanlin Chen Hao, the weapon is only Hulian, and the material is called Dongqian. He sent it to the deep Qiwo, and cut the salt plum with righteousness. Now he is deposed.
Set up an envoy to patrol Huainan, kill him first and then report his duties, and record his orders according to the time."
After the imperial edict was read out, when everyone was still kneeling on the ground, Chen Hao said in a deep voice: "My lords, please rise. The imperial edict has been read out. Is there any doubt?"
As he spoke, he turned the imperial edict in his hand so that everyone could see it clearly.
"Deputy Ambassador Du, do you have any objections?" Chen Hao asked.
"this……"
Du Quan began to hesitate. Of course he knew about the existence of this deposed envoy. He had heard about it from his brother Du Zong before, but he did not expect that this deposed envoy would come to Yangzhou without anyone noticing.
If he admits the deposed envoy, the clan brother will have no way to explain. After all, he knows that his elder brother, the Jiedushi envoy, has done a lot of shameful things. He even had the intention to assassinate the deposed envoy.
From what I have heard, if I admit it, I am afraid it will be detrimental to my clan brother, so it is difficult to make a decision at the moment.
Most of the remaining state officials are also waiting for Du Quan to express his position. In addition to Du Quan, who has the highest official position, he is also the clan brother of Lord Jieduzhi. However, Sima Huangshan of Yangzhou said: "My Lord has the imperial edict as a basis.
If I can prove the identity of your Majesty in deposing the envoy, I will have no objections!"
"I have heard your name a long time ago, and I admire you very much. I have no doubts about it!" Mr. Liu, who joined the army as a recorder, said loudly with a smile on his face. Then a group of officials also expressed that they had no objection to Chen Hao's identity.
Chen Hao did not show much excitement about Yangzhou Sima and Lushi's stance on joining the army. This was because he had already expected such a situation before he appeared in front of everyone.
Huainan is not monolithic, let alone Yangzhou. Liu Jianjun's ability to sit firmly in Huainan is not due to the emperor's trust in him, nor is it Du Zong's generosity to him. It is because Liu Eunuch himself also has a strong sense of responsibility here.
An irreplaceable force, otherwise Du Zong would not want someone to hold him back in everything.
These people who joined the army and Yangzhou Sima were obviously the core personnel of Liu Jianjun in Yangzhou. Now that Liu Jianjun was killed by Du Zong, they had a sense of crisis. It happened that Chen Hao's appearance at this time made these people see the dawn.
The dawn of the future, if you don’t stand on the side of deposing the envoy now, then how long will it take?
The reason why Chen Hao asked people to bring out Liu Jianjun's head was to see the reaction of the state officials, and he was secretly observing to find a breakthrough. In Chen Hao's view, whether it was the society of later generations or the current Tang Dynasty,
, if officials from all over the country want to be monolithic, it will be really difficult for this group of officials.
In addition, when he was holding Du Zong hostage, the eunuch Liu Jianjun actually wanted to kill two birds with one stone and eliminate Du Zong and himself together. It can be seen that the differences between the two people must have gone back a long way and they have been grudges for a long time.
As expected, the appearance of a head immediately caused differences of opinion among the state officials. Although they did not dare to speak out, they could find some clues.
Since Chen Hao has clearly seen the distribution of forces behind him, there is no need to hide in the back hall, so he appears in the hall...
At this moment, Du Quan's face was a little ugly. At this moment, less than half of the people in the hall recognized Chen Hao's identity as the deposed envoy. If he did not make a statement for a long time, I am afraid things would be a little difficult. Du Quan was shouting in his heart at this moment, his clan brother, why not at this moment?
Show up and let yourself be the man in the middle.
Chen Hao could see the change in Du Quan's expression, and he knew that Du Quan was having an ideological struggle at this moment.
"Since I can't make a decision for the moment, I will add another quarrel with you!" Chen Hao thought of this and winked at Lu Changqing who was not far away.
Lu Changqing nodded in understanding, waved to the outside of the hall, and a rapid sound of armor surrounded the entire hall. Then the sword was unsheathed, and the archer had an arrow on his string, ready for action.
hiss……
"What is this going to do? Do you want to rebel?"
"Who gave you the courage to get out!" General Niu, a leader of the marching troops, couldn't help but roared. He could only besiege others, so there was no reason for him to be besieged.
However, the angry rebuke and orders of many generals did not make him give in at all. General Niu, the commander of the marching troops, looked at Lu Changqing with a twisted eyebrow and shouted: "Captain Lu, do you know what you are doing?"
General Niu knew that this group of soldiers belonged to Lu Changqing, so he asked this question. However, Lu Changqing's face was as grave as water: "Of course I know!"
"you……"
General Niu wanted to speak but was interrupted by Du Quan, who had been silent for a long time. Then he came to Chen Hao and saluted: "Your Majesty, Du Quan, pays homage to the deposed envoy, Mr. Chen!"
How could Du Quan fail to see the calculation of the young deposed envoy in front of him? This can be said to be courtesy first and then attack, using both soft and hard tactics. It can be said that he is playing with each other to the extreme. This alone made Du Quan deeply impressed. But the only doubt was that
, where is his brother and why has he not been seen after so long?
"Oh? Deputy Ambassador Du has no objection?" Chen Hao asked again with great interest.
"I don't dare to lower my rank. I have offended so much just now, and I hope that the deposed envoy will forgive me!" Du Quan couldn't help but shuddered when he saw Chen Hao asking him softly. Although this Hanlin was not as high as his own official position, the deposed envoy was hanging in the balance.
A sharp sword on the heads of state officials. Isn't it already stated clearly in the imperial edict? It can be cut first and then reported, so as to facilitate action.
When the other officials saw that Du Quan had surrendered and saw many weapons pointing at them, they naturally had no choice and followed the trend to pay homage to the deposed envoy, Mr. Chen...
At this moment, Chen Hao let go of his worries and couldn't help but secretly wipe a cold sweat. Although everything was in his plan, sometimes it was difficult for the plan to keep up with the changes. If Du Quan and others refused to give in, he really didn't know
What to do? You can't kill them all by yourself, then you will really be playing Dafa.
Originally, Chen Hao planned to use Du Zong's military talisman to mobilize troops to suppress it, but then he thought that the military talisman in Du Zong's lair might not be effective, but would instead arouse suspicion, so he did not do so.
Now that his identity has been recognized, even if the Du family is going to be detrimental to him, he must carefully consider it. After all, there are dozens of officials present, and it may be difficult to stop many Youyou's mouths.
"Master Chen, I wonder where Master Jieduzhi is now?" Now that the matter was settled, Du Quan asked the question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
Du Quan's question also made everyone realize that Jiedushi Du Zong had never shown up. Could it be that Liu Jianjun was seriously injured when he was plotting something wrong? But because the deposed envoy was present, he did not dare to mention it.
"Oh, what Deputy Ambassador Du asked is exactly what I want to explain. The Jiedushi Master Du was unprepared and seriously injured due to Liu Jianjun's evil plan. It happened that I and Lu Duwei arrived in time to calm down the chaos.
!This is the military talisman awarded to me by Master Du." Chen Hao said as he took out a turtle shell-like object from his sleeve and raised his right hand to show everyone to see it.
"What, Mr. Du is injured?" Du Quan said in surprise.
Chen Hao nodded, and then continued: "Master Du gave me the military talisman in order to prevent the chaos caused by his injury. As for why Liu Jianjun committed such a blatant assassination, I still don't know...
Deputy envoy Du, please follow me into the inner hall to visit Mr. Du. The rest of the people will stay where they are and are not allowed to leave without permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Chen Hao's tone became extremely sharp at the end, and with the military talisman in hand, the generals had no choice but to obey the order, so all the officials in the conference hall said in unison: "Yes!"
"Deputy Ambassador Du, please!"
