The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 666: Re-discussing the Title of King
"My beloved concubine, come here~"
Nangong, Hehuan Palace, heard the sound of playing from afar. Although he had been out of the cold palace in the past two years, the affairs of the court were basically handled by the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now he might not attend the court once a month. Liu Neng, the emperor, seemed to have nothing else to do except playing with concubines in the palace every day.
The eunuch walked quickly to the outside of the palace, knelt at the door of the palace, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is waiting for an audience outside the palace gate!"
"Prime Minister?" Liu Neng shuddered, turned back to look at the eunuch outside the palace, frowned and said: "At this time, what can't the Prime Minister say tomorrow?"
"I don't know~" The eunuch shook his head.
Liu Neng hesitated for a moment and said: "Please come in quickly, go to Xuanshi Palace!"
Chen Mo's visit may not be a good thing, but Liu Neng can't miss it.
He didn't want to experience the cold palace again.
"Yes~" The eunuch agreed and got up and left.
Liu Neng turned his head and looked at the concubines around him. When he thought about meeting Chen Mo alone, he suddenly lost interest. Since he came out of the cold palace, he always felt an inexplicable fear when he saw Chen Mo again. He didn't know where this fear came from. In short, he just wanted to avoid him. It would be best if he didn't meet him.
Soon, Chen Mo came to the Xuanshi Hall and asked Dian Wei to wait outside the hall. He took his guards and escorted Ji Ping into the hall.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!" Chen Mo first bowed respectfully to Liu Neng.
"Prime Minister, you don't have to be so polite." Liu Neng quickly stood up and stretched out his hand to help him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chen Mo stood up slowly.
"Prime Minister, why is Doctor Ji like this?" Liu Neng looked at Ji Ping beside Chen Mo and asked with a frown. What's going on today?
"Your Majesty!" Chen Mo said in a deep voice: "Today, Ji Ping came to my house to offer medicine, but in the medicine, he intended to murder me, but I saw through it on the spot."
"How dare you!" Liu Neng slammed the table and glared at Ji Ping, "How dare a traitor to murder the prime minister?"
Ji Ping didn't say anything. He knew that it was useless to say anything now. If the emperor stood on his side, he would definitely not be able to defeat Chen Mo, and his crime would be determined.
"Prime Minister." After scolding, Liu Neng looked at Chen Mo again, wondering: "The prime minister is the one who makes the decision. Why do you have to come to the palace late at night?"
"I asked him who was the mastermind, but he said that it was your majesty who was the mastermind, so I had to come." Chen Mo looked at Liu Neng and said seriously.
"Ridiculous!" Liu Neng's face changed, and he glared at Ji Ping and said, "Why did the traitor try to sow discord between me and my subjects!?" Then he looked at Chen Mo, took a deep breath, bowed to Chen Mo and said, "Prime Minister, this matter has nothing to do with me. I have not met with the court officials in these days, and Ji Ping has not been to the palace for a long time. I have no chance to give such an order. Please be careful and don't be instigated by the traitor!" "I naturally believe that Your Majesty will not harm me." Chen Mo bowed and said, "But Your Majesty, since I assisted Your Majesty in becoming emperor, I have been working diligently and fighting for my Han Dynasty. Countless soldiers have fought blood on the battlefield, It's not for me, it's for Your Majesty, it's for the Han Dynasty. But I don't know why, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, there are always villains who intend to sow discord between the monarch and the ministers, or even more extreme, to murder me. In the decisive battle with Cao Cao, someone secretly communicated with Cao Cao, almost causing the fall of Luoyang, Your Majesty was imprisoned, and I was almost cut off from returning and died in the Central Plains. Now the world has finally been peaceful for a few years, but there are people who intend to murder me with such vicious means. Your Majesty, the country has not yet been fully restored, and there are already people who are thinking about the lives of meritorious officials. It's really chilling! "
"The Prime Minister is right!" Liu Neng laughed twice, not knowing how to answer.
"Your Majesty, the officials in the court are asking for an audience outside the palace gate." The eunuch ran in hurriedly and bowed.
"All the officials are here?" Liu Neng was a little surprised when he heard this, but then he was relieved. The presence of court officials could at least ease the atmosphere. Otherwise, he would feel suffocated by Chen Mo's aggressive pressure. It felt like Chen Mo was more like an emperor than himself.
"Prime Minister, should we summon all the officials to the palace?" Liu Neng did not respond immediately, but looked at Chen Mo.
"Of course." Chen Mo nodded.
"Call all the officials into the palace." Liu Neng then looked at the eunuch and said.
"Yes!" The eunuch left the hall, and a shrill voice could be heard from outside: "Call all officials into the palace~"
Soon, Yang Biao, Sima Fang, and Zhong Yao led the nine ministers and other officials in, and saluted Liu Neng: "Your Majesty."
"This is not the court, so you don't have to be polite." Liu Neng waved his hand, then looked at Ji Ping who was kneeling on the ground, and told him what happened just now, and smiled bitterly: "I don't know who is behind this, but Ji Ping is just an imperial physician, it is impossible for him to suddenly want to assassinate the prime minister. My dear ministers, the prime minister has made great contributions to our dynasty, and God has made great contributions to our dynasty. The peace we have now is all due to the Prime Minister’s sword and gun. I don’t know who taught this, but if it really happened, let alone the Prime Minister’s unwillingness to give up, even if the Prime Minister is generous, I will investigate it to the end and cannot let the Prime Minister down. What do you think? "
If it was before Chen Mo and Cao Cao went to war, many people would probably jump out to refute at this moment, but now, no more, with repeated failures, the old ministers in the court are constantly being eliminated, Chen Mo’s power is constantly strengthening, and Liu Neng’s repeated inaction, the only remaining ministers loyal to the Han Dynasty now dare not openly oppose Chen Mo.
Besides, Chen Mo is right in this matter itself, and many people don’t understand who would assassinate Chen Mo at this time?
"Your Majesty!" Sima Yi stood up and saluted Liu Neng: "I thought that the person behind this must be investigated, but this matter is really chilling. Even if the person behind the scenes is found out this time, what about next time? I think that just finding out the person behind the scenes is not enough to appease the Prime Minister!"
"Who are you?" Liu Neng frowned. As the prime minister, Sima Yi was not eligible to sit in the court during the morning dynasty except when he returned to the dynasty and was granted a title. The last time they met was more than two years ago. Liu Neng had already I forgot who this person was and just stared at Sima Yi. Could it be possible to ask him to abdicate the throne to Chen Mo?
"My lord, Sima Yi, Tian is the prime minister." Sima Yi said with a smile.
"It turns out he is a subordinate of the Prime Minister." Liu Neng was a little discouraged. He couldn't afford to offend the people in the Prime Minister's residence. He nodded and said, "I wonder how Sima Qing thinks he should be comforted?"
"Back to Your Majesty." Sima Yi bowed and said: "The reason why people continue to attack and annihilate the Prime Minister is because some people are jealous of the Prime Minister's position and achievements. Now the Prime Minister not only has to guard against Sun Quan in Jiangdong and Liu Bei in Jingzhou, but also deals with national affairs and people's livelihood. I have no time to pay attention to these villains, and I make these people think that the Prime Minister is easy to bully. I think that for the current plan, your Majesty can only move the capital and let the Prime Minister stay in Luoyang alone, so that he can concentrate on frightening the princes! "
"Move the capital?" Liu Neng's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't know what others thought, but as far as he was concerned, moving the capital might not be a bad thing for him. At least he didn't have to live so cautiously under Chen Mo's suppression, or even leave. Chen Mo's gaze might be able to do something else.
"Yes, move the capital!" Sima Yi nodded and said, "Only in this way can the Prime Minister devote all his efforts to coordinating the overall situation and dedicate himself to your majesty and the great rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty."
Liu Neng nodded. If he could take this opportunity to break away from Chen Mo's control, it might not be a bad thing. He looked at the ministers and said, "I wonder what you all, dear friends, think?"
This time, no one objected, including loyal officials of the Han Dynasty such as Sima Fang and Yang Biao.
"Since none of you have objections, I will follow your plan and move the capital to another day." Liu Neng stood up and prepared to leave the court.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet." Sima Yi said loudly.
"What else can I say?" Liu Neng frowned.
"If Your Majesty leaves, although the Prime Minister is in charge of the internal affairs of the states and counties, he is not above the military power. His Majesty's move of the capital will definitely be to Chang'an. However, if there is an emergency military situation in the Central Plains, the Prime Minister will have to report to the court. Asking for instructions to mobilize troops, this is coming and going in recent months. Your Majesty must know that troops need to be quick. If this is the case, I am afraid it will delay the battle." Sima Yi said with a smile.
Now you need to ask me for instructions when fighting? Why do you feel so inexplicably honored? Liu Neng smiled, a little sarcastically. He knew that Chen Mo couldn't just ask him to move out of Luoyang this time. The next words were probably the key point, but Liu Neng didn't want to hear this point, let alone He accepted it, so he didn't answer, just looked at Sima Yi quietly.
Liu Neng didn't say anything, but Sima Yi had nothing to be embarrassed about and continued directly: "I think that the position of prime minister is not enough to mobilize the troops of the world. Therefore, I should make the prime minister king. Jingzhou will have the King of Chu, and the land of Shu will have the King of Shu. , there is a false emperor in Jiangdong, and the prime minister can only uphold justice and not be suppressed by the three princes. "
Become a king?
Liu Neng frowned. Chen Mo had mentioned this matter when he returned to the court, but was dismissed. But this time... Liu Neng looked at the courtiers. Sima Fang had no hope for him. This was Sima Yi's father. Now Liu Neng didn't expect Sima Fang to say a fair word when his son came out to undermine him.
But Yang Biao and Zhong Yao disappointed Liu Neng. This time, the two did not stand up. Not only them, but also the Jiu Qing behind them were silent.
It turns out that in the past two years, the court has been cleaned again by Chen Mo?
Liu Neng suddenly felt a little breathless. He knew very well what it meant to be crowned king. If Chen Mo was crowned king, even if he, the emperor, was out of Chen Mo's control and moved the capital to Chang'an, nothing in Luoyang would have to go through again. He, the emperor, approved that although the imperial court was still there, it was basically in name only. The real imperial court was still in Luoyang, but it had just changed its name and became the palace.
"What do you think, dear friends?" Seeing that no one spoke, Liu Neng became a little desperate and looked at the courtiers.
"I believe that this matter is too big to be rushed and needs to be discussed carefully." In the end, it was Sima Fang, the person least favored by Liu Neng, who stood up and bowed.
"What do you think, Prime Minister?" Liu Neng looked at Chen Mo.
"It's really not urgent." Chen Mo nodded, then pointed at Ji Ping and said: "I came here today just to seek justice, so let's investigate this matter first."
"Okay, I will leave this matter to Tingwei to investigate. It is necessary to find out the matter and give justice to the Prime Minister." Liu Neng seemed to have aged a lot.
"Your Majesty, take your orders!" Man Chong stood up and bowed.
Liu Neng waved his hands feebly and said, "I'm tired. If there's nothing else important, you can go back on your own."
"Best farewell to Your Majesty!" Chen Mo bowed down.
"Best farewell to Your Majesty!" The ministers followed and bowed.
His Majesty?
Haha~
Liu Neng looked at these people and felt very tired. In just two years, the court had become somewhat unfamiliar to him. He said nothing more and turned away, leaving only a desolate figure behind...
