The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

In the Great Xia Kingdom, all major armies, armies, and local guards are managed by the Five Armies Commander’s Mansion, but they are only responsible for the management of local farmland and military administration. Call the right of a soldier!

Although the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Ministry of War are parallel military agencies, they not only cooperate with each other, but also restrain each other. Moreover, the military management of the Great Xia Kingdom has not yet seen the phenomenon of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the Ministry of War has emptied the military governor's mansion, but this is a conflict of interests between military generals and civil servants, and it will happen sooner or later.

On this day, Ye Xiu, the governor of the Chinese Army, suddenly received an urgent encrypted military bulletin from the border. After much thought, he immediately went to the Ministry of War and met Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of War.

Huo Xingye also read the encrypted military report, and his face became serious: "This... this matter is of great importance, we must ensure that it is absolutely true, otherwise it will be a huge slander!"

Ye Xiu said in a deep voice: "Lord Huo, this military report was issued by Marquis Chang Sheng. Don't you know what he is like? If he didn't have reliable evidence, how could he slander Bai Huhou at will? Bai Huhou is the Queen's cousin , is Duke Xi’s nephew again! Duke Xi’s younger brother passed away earlier, and he regards Bai Huhou as his own son, his own son! So it affects the whole body!”

"This matter is really tricky!" Huo Xingye also felt a headache. Although Bai Huhou was under the management of the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion, the Ministry of War was responsible for dispatching him. If something happened to Bai Huhou, neither party could get away with it. That's why Ye Xiu came to discuss with Huo Xingye. In addition, the two of them are good friends, so they can better solve the trouble by talking with each other at this time.

Ye Xiu continued: "According to what the letter said, the witnesses and criminal evidence are already on their way to Beijing, and they will arrive in a few days. In my opinion, we should suppress this first, and wait for the witnesses and criminal evidence to arrive. , discussing the next action. Bai Huhou has too much involvement, if there is no sufficient evidence, it will definitely cause trouble."

When Huo Xingye was about to speak, at this moment, Guo Ziyi, the left servant of the Ministry of War, came to the door to ask to see him!

Huo Xingye was taken aback for a moment, and then said to the guard outside the door: "Let Guo Shilang wait in the side hall for a while, and say that the officer is receiving distinguished guests!"

But the guard said: "Master Shangshu, Lord Shilang said that he has a very urgent matter, which is related to Bai Huhou!"

"Oh?" Huo Xingye was surprised. He was discussing Bai Huhou with Ye Xiu, but he didn't expect that the newly appointed Minister Guo also had something important to report.

Ye Xiu thought for a while, then said, "Lord Huo, Guo Shilang is from Luzhou Command and Envoy Division. Although he has just arrived in the capital, he has been in the capital all year round. He may have some information that we don't know. Why don't you see him?"

"Master Ye is right!" Huo Xingye nodded, and then ordered the guards to invite Guo Ziyi in.

Guo Ziyi walked in, saw that Ye Xiu was there, not surprised on his face, and immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, Guo Ziyi pays homage to Lord Huo and Lord Ye!"

Huo Xingye said: "Guo Shilang came to see you in a hurry, did something important happen?"

Guo Ziyi glanced at Ye Xiu, and asked later: "Master Huo, I have received some news about Bai Huhou, look..."

Huo Xingye said: "Master Ye is not an outsider, it's okay, Mr. Guo just say it!"

Guo Ziyi nodded, and said: "I understand! Master Huo is like this! I was fortunate to receive the grace of the Holy Grace and was promoted to be the left servant of the Ministry of War. And I have a friend who works under the command of Bai Huhou. In the past few days, I suddenly sent me a letter Secret letter, the letter said..."

After a pause, Guo Ziyi said in a low voice: "It said in the letter that Bai Huhou seems to be in contact with the dignitaries of Zhao State! The humble official realized the importance of this matter, thought it over and over again, and dared not make a decision without authorization, so I came here to ask for instructions!"

"Oh? Really? There is such a thing?" Huo Xingye took a deep look at Guo Ziyi and asked, "Did Mr. Guo's friends ever say that there is reliable evidence?"

"There is no direct evidence!" Guo Ziyi shook his head.

Huo Xingye said again: "Master Guo, you should understand that without evidence, just saying that there is something wrong with a prominent military lord is likely to cause a mutiny!"

"Of course I understand, so I'm just here to tell Lord Shangshu!" Guo Ziyi said respectfully.

Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu looked at each other, and said: "Okay, I understand, Mr. Guo is stepping down for now, and the matter of Bai Huwai is put aside for now."

"Yes!" Guo Ziyi stepped back.

Immediately, only Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu were left in the room.

The two looked at each other, and they were silent. After a while, Ye Xiu sighed, "It seems that Guo Ziyi is here, and it is King Xian who is beating us!"

Huo Xingye nodded.

It was less than a month since Guo Ziyi took office as the left servant of the Ministry of War. A friend who was far away at the border received the news and sent him a secret letter. It was not impossible, it was just a coincidence! What's even more coincidental is that when Ye Xiu came to discuss the matter of Bai Huhou with Huo Xingye, Guo Ziyi also came to ask to see him. How likely are the two coincidences?

In addition, Guo Ziyi was once favored by King Xian, and after coming to Kyoto, he turned a blind eye to the solicitation of other princes. Instead, he went to pay a visit to Prince Xian's mansion, so the dignitaries in Kyoto thought he was from King Xian.

So today Guo Ziyi came to report that it was false, and even beat Huo Xingye and Ye Xiu, showing that King Xian already knew the evidence of Bai Huhou's crime. If the two adults hold back and don't investigate, then don't blame King Xian for being rude.

"Brother Ye, Chang Shenghou rushed to send your military report, so how did King Xian know all of this? Didn't Chang Shenghou also support King Xian, so he also sent him a secret letter?" Huo Hoshino couldn't help but guess.

If the guess is true, then King Xian's power has really sprung up.

Ye Xiu also frowned and said, "The Marquis of Chang Sheng won His Majesty's trust so much that he was able to defend Chang'an, the capital of Xijing. He is smart and alert, and knows how to judge the situation. The Marquis of the Champion and the King of Xian are married, and the two are tied together. But Marquis Chang Sheng has no reason, how could he support it?" King Xian? King Xian is not yet a prince. As a military lord guarding the border, it is taboo to contact the prince! He knows the dangers! And even if he does, he will definitely keep it mysterious, and we won’t let us guess it at random Yes. So I think Marquis Chang Sheng did not serve King Xian, and King Xian got the news through other channels."

"Also, King Xian used Guo Ziyi to beat us. His intentions are vicious. One is to force us to investigate, and the other is to make us think wildly about his relationship with Chang Shenghou! In case we believe that he has something to do with Chang Shenghou, Invisibly, Chang Shenghou was pushed into his camp!"

As expected of Ye Xiu being a treacherous and cunning man, Guo Jia asked Guo Ziyi to beat him, which was indeed the second purpose.

Huo Xingye nodded when he heard Ye Xiu's calculations, and said, "There must be an expert by King Xian's side! Brother Ye, do you think this is a poisonous scheme set up by King Xian to deal with King Chu? Recently, the two of them But don’t deal with it!”

"Brother Huo, stop talking!" Ye Xiu's face changed, and he reminded quickly.

Only then did Huo Xingye realize that if his words spread, he would be impeached by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he was not afraid, so he said, "Brother Ye reminded me!"

Ye Xiu thought for a while, and said, "I don't think it's possible! Brother Huo, think about it, it's hard to imagine how difficult it is to be convicted of Baihuhou's crime!"

Huo Xingye sighed softly, and said: "Yeah, I was worrying too much. Damn it, this Guo Ziyi came here and aroused all our suspicions. Random thinking is the easiest way to do bad things!"

After the two looked at each other, they both remained silent.

After a while, Ye Xiu said, "I'll go back for now, and wait for Marquis Chang Sheng to send the witnesses and physical evidence, and we can discuss it temporarily!"

"Okay!" Huo Xingye stood up and saw Ye Xiu off.

Seeing Ye Xiu leave, Huo Xingye's frowning brows were immediately relieved, and he said with a smile: "This old man Ye is really cunning, he doesn't support any prince, but he doesn't want to offend the King of Chu, so he came to me on purpose and asked me to go into the water! The less people he offends when things go wrong."

"However, what surprised me was King Xian's method. It was a fatal blow! No matter how King Xian got the information, dealing with King Chu is a good thing for everyone. How could I refuse? Even if King Xian didn't send Guo Ziyi Come and beat me, I will also make this matter big, once something happens to Bai Huhou, the Zhou clan and Duke Xi will be implicated, haha..."

"However, since King Xian wants to do it himself, I will give him this knife as a favor!"

Huo Xingye is the uncle of the Fourth Prince Xiao Feng. He is eager to see something happen to King Chu. Now that he can deal with King Chu's power, why not do it?

In fact, just as Huo Xingye guessed, this was the main reason why Guo Jia used Guo Ziyi to beat Huo Xingye!

He, Xiao Rui, has already boasted that he wants to deal with the King of Chu with his own hands, how could he not keep his word?

...

Although Wei Wuxian told King Chu and Xi Guogong about Xiao Rui's life experience, the two still did not persuade Wei Wuxian to be a witness to expose the matter. There is no witness, and there is no evidence to rely on words alone, so the matter is temporarily delayed. In addition, the concubine Du Xueqin gave birth to Linzi, and Xiao Yiheng has been so happy these days, so he didn't act too hastily.

In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed since Xiao Yan's wedding.

Xiao Rui's life is free and unrestrained, he doesn't go to the morning court, and he just hangs around the Metropolitan Procuratorate when he has nothing to do. Du Shaonian, the censor of Zuodu, sees that King Xian doesn't seem to be causing trouble, so he is finally relieved. Even Du Shaonian forgot to ask who the corrupt official Hao Yun investigated was who he was.

On this day, Xiao Rui had just finished his training, when someone came from the palace, His Majesty summoned him.

After he entered the palace, he came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to meet Emperor Xia.

"I pay my respects to my father!" Xiao Rui said respectfully.

Emperor Xia was reviewing the memorandum, raised his head slightly, glanced at Xiao Rui, and said, "I asked you to be the assistant officer of Zuodu Censor. You are obedient and report to the Metropolitan Procuratorate early. But why didn't you see you in the early morning? Isn't it me?" If you don’t mention it, you just pretend you don’t know it and don’t go all the time?”

Xiao Rui had already thought about the reason, and said: "Father, although my son went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to study, his official position is still the supervisory censor, and the supervisory censor is not qualified to go to court, so the son did not dare to make decisions on his own. Afraid of breaking the rules."

"Excessive words!" Xia Huang snorted.

Xiao Rui originally held that it would be a day to delay, so he said: "I know I was wrong."

Emperor Xia didn't hold him accountable either, and said, "There are two things to call you into the palace today. One, the clan's mansion is optimistic about your big day with the daughter of Champion Marquis and Li Mingyang's granddaughter, and the other is the twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month. Eight, one is March 15th of the Chinese New Year, when you get married, I naturally want to ask about your plans!"

Xiao Rui said: "The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is definitely too late, so I can only choose the fifteenth day of the next March, so there are still nearly four months left, so give my son more time to prepare."

Emperor Xia nodded and said: "Okay, it's settled like this. The second thing is that the mission of the Qi State has entered the capital, and it will arrive in the capital in a few days. You should be ready."

"My son understands!" Xiao Rui said respectfully, and then asked: "Father, what is the diplomatic policy of our Great Xia Kingdom when we receive envoys from the Qi Kingdom?"

Xia Huang lifted up the pen, and Yan Xiaoxiao took it respectfully. Xia Huang smiled and said: "Stay the same for all changes! If there are benefits, you can get benefits, and if you don't suffer losses, you can do it! This time, I will also give you the power to do things cheaply, You are fully responsible for this reception. This time, you don’t need to find other princes to help you take the blame, right?”

"No need, no need, the elder brothers are very busy, I can just come by myself." Xiao Rui didn't change his face, so he wouldn't be embarrassed by Emperor Xia's squeeze.

Emperor Xia nodded.

At this moment, an eunuch hurriedly entered the palace, whispered something in Hai Dafu's ear, and then Hai Dafu said: "Your Majesty, Lord Ye Xiu, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Guo Ziyi, the left servant of the Ministry of Justice, are asking to see you." !"

"Oh? Why did the three of them come here together? Could it be that something happened at the border?" Xia Huang was surprised, and immediately said: "Xuan!"

Xiao Rui stood up and said, "Father, the minister there will take his leave first."

But Emperor Xia said: "It's okay, just sit and listen!"

Xiao Rui had no choice but to continue to sit there, watching his nose and mind.

Soon, Ye Xiu, Huo Xingye, and Guo Ziyi entered the hall to pay their respects. When they saw Xiao Rui in the hall, the three of them were slightly taken aback.

Emperor Xia said: "Excuse me, give me a seat! The three of you are in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and you entered the palace together today. Could it be that something important happened?"

Ye Xiu took the initiative to come out and glanced at Xiao Rui first. Although he knew that Xiao Rui knew what was going to happen, he was reporting to His Majesty after all.

"Xian Wang was left by me, so don't avoid suspicion, just tell me!" Xia Huang explained.

Ye Xiu thought about it, wondering what His Majesty meant by that. Do you have more trust in King Xian, or do you know what happened?

Not only him, but even Xiao Rui, who was sitting quietly, couldn't guess the emperor's intention.

Ye Xiu didn't dare to delay, so he respectfully said: "Your Majesty, I received an urgent encrypted military report from Chang Shenghou Kuaima eight days ago. His military report revealed that Bai Huhou Zhou Shufeng had colluded with Zhao Kuangming, the sixth prince of Zhao State. , collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. The minister dare not make good claims, lest he will startle the snake, so after communicating with Huo Shangshu, he kept his composure for the time being. Five days ago, Chang Shenghou sent people to escort the criminals and criminal evidence into Beijing. These days, Guo Shilang Secretly reviewed and found that the evidence is true!"

"Oh? Baihuhou Zhou Shufeng actually colluded with Zhao's prince, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?" After hearing this, Emperor Xia frowned, and immediately sat upright.

The game begins.

Xiao Rui also showed a look of astonishment, since it's acting, it has to act like it.
