Chapter 366: Request to execute Chen Zuchang

"Your Highness, I think the first person to deal with is Chen Zuchang, the eunuch of Chongshan Town!"

Liu Yuanfu stood up at this time, bowed and said.

When Chen Zuchang was mentioned, the prince's face darkened instantly.

But Prince Cheng and Prince Gong next to them showed sarcastic expressions.

Chen Zuchang was from the crown prince, but not long after he arrived in Liaodong, he was impeached by Pang Tang!

This is so embarrassing!

The prince wanted to kill someone right now.

Not only did he want to kill Chen Zuchang, he also wanted to kill Pang Tang.

Others only saw Pang Tang's memorial, but he also received Chen Zuchang's secret memorial.

Pang Tang conducted the impeachment openly and openly, while Chen Zuchang conducted the impeachment secretly.

Needless to say, Chen Zuchang's snitch report must have been aggravated by what Pang Tang scolded him, and then he said something about Pang Tang being disrespectful to the prince.

Although the prince did not completely believe what Chen Zuchang said, he still felt very angry in his heart.

No matter what, Chen Zuchang is his, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, but Pang Tang doesn't give him any face. He just calls Chen Zuchang a castrated dog, and actually goes to court for impeachment. Isn't this embarrassing him? ?

"Guhui will deal with Chen Zuchang, so you adults don't have to worry!" the prince said helplessly.

Chen Zuchang's embezzlement of wages must be dealt with. He didn't want to deal with it even if he didn't want to. The civil and military officials of the whole court were watching him at this time. He definitely couldn't protect Chen Zuchang.

"May I ask His Highness how to deal with Chen Zuchang?"

However, he wanted to stop all activities, but Liu Yuanfu was unwilling.

How to deal with Chen Zuchang?

Chen Zuchang is the prince's domestic slave, so the prince alone has the final say on how to deal with it!

But Liu Yuanfu didn't want the prince to turn a major issue into a trivial matter. He hoped that the prince could severely punish Chen Zuchang, and it would be best to kill Chen Zuchang.

The prince is definitely not willing to kill Chen Zuchang. No matter what Chen Zuchang does wrong, it is still the people around him. If he kills Chen Zuchang, it will alienate the people around him.

"The Guhui will remove him from the post of guard and appoint a new guard!" the prince said in a deep voice.

Liu Yuanfu looked disappointed when he heard this.

The prince is still not decisive enough or cruel enough.

For the sake of a slave, he actually ignored the overall situation of Zhongshan Town.

"I think Chongshan Town does not need to be guarded for the time being!" Liu Yuanfu said instead.

He didn't want to argue with the prince about how to deal with Chen Zuchang. He just hoped that the prince would stop sending guard eunuchs to Chongshan Town.

The prince looked at Liu Yuanfu with a sinister look in his eyes.

"Master Liu thinks lonely people are not worthy of guarding?"

"Old minister, I have no such intention!"

"Then what do you mean? I know that you have a close relationship with Yang Zhengshan, but do you think Yang Zhengshan does not need to be guarded and monitored?" The prince's tone became extremely gloomy.

As soon as he said this, all the officials in the court showed astonishment.

Zhou Mao frowned and looked up at the prince, but quickly lowered his head.

Li Siyuan also frowned, the prince's words were a bit excessive.

This is saying that Liu Yuanfu is protecting Yang Zhengshan. To put it more broadly, it could also be that Liu Yuanfu and Yang Zhengshan are forming a party!

Civil servants and military generals form a party!

This is a taboo thing!

"I have no such intention!" Liu Yuanfu raised his head and looked directly at the prince.

"No! Then why doesn't Chongshan Town need to be guarded?" The prince became even more angry when he saw it.

Who is Liu Yuanfu?

Even Emperor Taiping dared to point his nose at someone and scold him!

The wrinkles on Liu Yuanfu's old face trembled slightly, "Your Highness, do you insist on the old minister telling me?"

"Say!" the prince said sharply.

Liu Yuanfu bowed and said loudly: "His Royal Highness is not strict with your Majesty, that's why this unruly slave appeared. The unruly slave is greedy for money and money, and has no regard for the overall situation. His crime deserves to be punished. I ask Your Highness to punish Chen Zuchang!"

Liu Yuanfu knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Highness, please kill Chen Zuchang!"

Does Chongshan Town need a guard eunuch?

Does it matter?

Not important!

Liu Yuanfu just didn't want the prince to send any more eunuchs to cause trouble in Chongshan Town.

But the prince held on tightly, so he could only force the prince!

"You!" The prince shouted angrily!

"Chen Zuchang's crime is unforgivable. I ask Your Highness to kill Chen Zuchang!" Liu Yuanfu kowtowed again.

Greedy for money and money, this matter can be big or small!

Just go to Xiaoli and let Chen Zuchang spit out his salary, and then the prince will punish him.

If it were taken seriously, killing Chen Zuchang would also be legal.

The prince looked at Liu Yuanfu who was kneeling on the ground, his face turning blue and white.

But something even worse for him was yet to come.

"I ask the prince to kill Chen Zuchang!"

"I ask the prince to kill Chen Zuchang!"

The person who added insult to injury came, and Prince Cheng and Prince Gong stood up and paid their respects.

The prince looked at the two men with evil intent. At this moment, he wanted to kill more people.

"Okay, very good. Since the two royal brothers want to kill a slave, then I will kill him!"

After that, the prince flicked his sleeves and left the hall angrily.

Liu Yuanfu looked up at the prince's leaving figure and sighed quietly.

"Master Liu, why bother!" Li Siyuan stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help him up.

"How can the war in the border town be a child's play? There is nothing I can do about it!" Liu Yuanfu said quietly, shaking his head.

If the problem in Chongshan Town is not solved, the problem of the Uuliang Hu people cannot be solved.

As long as the west road of Chongshan Town is still in Ji Feiyu's hands, the Uuliang Hu people entering western Liaoning will be like entering uninhabited territory.

The most important thing right now is to conquer Chongshan Pass and regain control of the west road of Chongshan Town, otherwise the war in western Liaoning will never end.

However, at this juncture, instead of focusing on the overall situation, the prince always wanted to deploy people to Chongshan Town, which disappointed Liu Yuanfu.

"It's just that if you do this, the prince will probably be disgusted with you!" Li Siyuan said in a low voice.

"If you hate it, just hate it. I'm already ready to beg for the bones!" Liu Yuanfu looked up at the high dragon chair, shook his head and walked out of the hall step by step.

Li Siyuan looked at his back and sighed in his heart.

The battle in the court was far more intense than imagined, and the battle between the prince and Prince Cheng and Prince Gong was almost on the table.

The two princes would oppose anything the prince wanted to do, and they would hold on to anything that could embarrass the prince without any scruples.

The next day, Liu Yuan's house was begged for the bones.

He really wants to resign.

First, he is already seventy years old. Although his body and bones are not bad, his energy and physical strength are lacking due to his age.

Secondly, because the current situation in the court is turbulent, and the fight between the prince and the two princes is getting more intense, turmoil in the court is inevitable.

And he no longer has the ambition of his youth, nor the fearlessness of before.

The older a person gets, the less timid they become.

Yesterday, the Liu Yuan Mansion had completely offended the prince to death. If he continued to stay in the court, the Liu Mansion would probably be wiped out in the future.

Liu Yuanfu felt that he was worthy of His Majesty and great honor in his life, but now that he was old, it was time to think about future generations.

That's why he decided to resign and return to his hometown to retire, away from the whirlpool of the court.

Liu Yuanfu's memorial begging for bones was dismissed without any suspense.

For the next two days, Liu Yuanfu went to beg for the bones every day, three times in a row, and the prince agreed.

Regarding Liu Yuanfu's begging for bones, the prince wanted to drive the old man out of Kyoto as soon as possible. However, Liu Yuanfu was an important minister in the court and had a high reputation in Shilin, so he could only reject Liu Yuanfu's request three times in a row. memorial.

Liu Yuanfu was determined to resign. He also knew the prince's thoughts and resigned three times in three consecutive days.

The next day after receiving the permission, Liu Yuanfu left Kyoto with his whole family. He left without delay at all, and even in a bit of a hurry.

However, when leaving Kyoto, Liu Yuanfu still wrote a letter to Yang Zhengshan.

The first day of July.

Outside Chongshan Pass, in the camp of the Tenglong Guard army.

Yang Zhengshan received a letter from Liu Yuanfu.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Yang Zhengshan's eyebrows knitted together.

Liu Yuanfu stated the reason for his resignation in the letter. The fight between the prince and the two princes became more and more fierce, and the emperor was still bedridden. If this continued, there would be chaos in the court, and Liu Yuanfu did not want to implicate his descendants. , we can only seek good luck, avoid bad luck, and stay away from the court.

At the same time, Liu Yuanfu also mentioned in the letter that the prince might be very dissatisfied with Yang Zhengshan and asked Yang Zhengshan to deal with it carefully.

After reading the letter, Yang Zhengshan stroked his long beard and fell into deep thought.

He was far away from the court in Chongshan Town, so it stands to reason that the fight in the court had nothing to do with him.

But now that he is the commander-in-chief of Chongshan Town, and Chongshan Town and Liaoxi are under the spotlight, the battle in the court may start around Chongshan Town and Liaoxi.

As for the prince, it seems that he and the prince have never crossed paths, but he seems to have become a stumbling block for the prince in many things.

However, Liu Yuanfu asked Chen Zuchang to be executed, but the prince said that Liu Yuanfu was colluding with him. This is really an unreasonable disaster!

Chen Zuchang was driven away by Pang Tang, who had never met Chen Zuchang.

But now the prince probably has a grudge against him too!

The more Yang Zhengshan thought about it, the more his head hurt.

Compared to the battle in front of them, the fight in the court was more troublesome.

"Does the prince want to kill me?"

Yang Zhengshan shook his head. He felt that he was suffering from paranoia.

The prince may be dissatisfied with him, but he probably won't be quick to get rid of him.

Not to that point yet.

And now the court still needs him to deal with Ji Feiyu, but Prince Fan has a sense of the overall situation, so he can't be touched at this time.

As for the future, I don’t think too much about it now because it doesn’t make any sense.

Yang Zhengshan thought of Prince Cheng and Prince Gong, as well as the bedridden emperor.

"I don't know when the emperor will be healed!"

Yang Zhengshan murmured in a low voice, then put down the letter in his hand, stood up and walked out of the camp.

Outside the camp, Niuzhuang, Tang Feihu and Xie Yuan were chatting. When they saw him coming out, they quickly stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists.

"Let's go and see Chongshan Pass again!"

Yang Zhengshan said something, got on his horse, and led the people out of the camp in a mighty manner, galloping towards Chongshan Pass.

They have been at Chongshan Pass for nearly twenty days.

They have not attacked the city for the past twenty days, not even a tentative attack.

Ji Feiyu, who was in the city, did not go out to fight, as if he was determined to defend Chongshan Pass.

The two sides were in a stalemate.

However, Yang Zhengshan knew that he could not drag it out any longer. If he continued like this, Liaoxi might not be able to withstand it anymore, and the court might also have objections to him.
