Chapter 512
"Brother, since you know that no one can calm the rumors, what will happen if Prince Gong can't control the rumors?"
"Who will the Lord look for the responsibility if he wants to hold him accountable?"
"Will you look for Prince Gong?"
Yan Jing threw several questions over, and Yan Mei was completely silent.
The Imperial City Department has always been the leader of his army, Yan Mei, and once Emperor Yongping is to hold him accountable, he will definitely not look for King Gong. After all, King Gong is just his successor, and he took office only after the incident happened.
"Second brother, now leaving Beijing, wouldn't it give people a feeling of being afraid of sin and absconding?"
"Even if the ancestors and ancestors have spirits in heaven, they will not forgive me."
Yan Mei didn't want to leave.
He is the heir to the Zhenjun Marquis Mansion. Zhenjun Marquis is a title passed down from his ancestors. Now that he has lost this title in his hands, he has no face to face his ancestors. If he is worried about being held accountable, he will flee the capital. Wouldn’t the glory and achievements he has won with his blood be ruined by him?
"Brother, if you stay in the capital and are sentenced to a family raid and exterminate the clan by the emperor, will your ancestors forgive you?"
Yan Jing's words were not vague at all.
After saying this, Yan Mei was completely stunned.
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and there is no descendant.
If he was so confusing his family and exterminated by this inexplicable prosecution, it would be even more serious than the queen.
"Brother, don't hesitate, listen to me, hurry up and leave!"
"I originally planned to take care of it again. Now, I just borrowed this east wind from you, brother."
“…?!”
When Yan Mei heard Yan Jing's words, his eyes widened and wanted to beat the brother. He was taken away. Is this Dongfeng? This brat is the best talking on weekdays, but now every sentence is like a knife, piercing him hard in his heart.
However, no matter how unhappy Yan Mei felt, she could only admit that Yan Jing's words were reasonable in the end.
"As long, I'll listen to you."
Yan Mei is not a stupid person.
If he was stupid, he would not have inherited the title of Zhenjunhou, nor would he have been in charge of the Imperial City Department for so many years, and he had been valued by Emperor Yongping.
If it weren't for the big trouble this time, Emperor Yongping was angry and needed someone to take the blame, Emperor Yongping would definitely not have been able to make a comeback.
However, even if Emperor Yongping lost Yan Mei, as long as he calmed down, he would realize that he had made a super wrong decision. As an emperor who was not too stupid, Emperor Yongping realized that his mistakes would definitely correct his mistakes as soon as possible and reuse Yan Mei again.
Why did Yan Jing eagerly let his elder brother leave Beijing, and even scare his elder brother with alarmist words such as raiding homes and extermination? He just didn't want his elder brother to continue to work under Emperor Yongping.
Yan Jing was really disappointed with Emperor Yongping.
In other words, Yan Jing was disappointed with the entire royal family.
There is an old saying that good birds choose trees to live in, and loyal ministers choose masters to work.
Today's Emperor Yongping and the Tang Dynasty royal family are no longer worthy of loyalty.
Yan Jing never felt that he was such a noble person. After knowing what Emperor Yongping did during this period, Yan Jing became a centrifugal.
If it weren't for the previous invasion of the Northern Barbarians, Yan Jing might have tried his best to advise him. But now, Yan Jing has no idea.
On that day, Yan Mei took the generals of the Junhou Mansion of Jia Xiaohe and Zhen left the capital.
As for where to go?
Yan Jing didn't even think about it, and the advice he gave was to let him go to Anshun County.
At the same time, Yan Jing wrote two letters, one for Chen Wansheng and the other for Mr. Xu, and asked the two to help take care of his elder brother, a family member. Of course, the most important thing is that if Emperor Yongping has the will to restore his elder brother's title and ask his elder brother to return to Beijing, he must stop him.
Yan Mei had no idea what Yan Jing was thinking in his heart, because his thoughts had been deviated by Yan Jing.
...
After King Gong Li Jun commanded the Imperial City Department, he issued an order immediately, which was to arrest people in the upper realm. If someone talked about Emperor Taizu's rumors, he would take them down directly.
In the view of King Gong Li Zhen, it doesn’t need to be too simple to suppress the spread of this rumor.
Unfortunately, the ignorant King Gong did not know that there is an idiom in this world called "Defending the people is more important than defending the river".
The more Prince Gong Li Jun did this, the more the truth of the rumors was confirmed.
In just two days, the capital and the Imperial City Side were crowded, but the rumors in the capital were getting worse and worse.
At this moment, Yan Jing submitted a memorial and asked to resign.
When Emperor Yongping received the resignation of Yan Jing, he was a little stunned at the time, not very clear about why Yan Jing wanted to resign. He had already explained this to Yan Jing, but Yan Jing didn't say anything at that time.
"Come here, tell me that Yan Jing is here to see me!"
Although Emperor Yongping was puzzled and angry about Yan Jing's resignation, he still wanted to hear Yan Jing's explanation.
However, the eunuch who was ordered to go to the palace quickly turned around and brought back a letter, but did not bring Yan Jing's people.
"Sage Master, Master Yan has left, leaving only this letter."
The eunuch carefully presented the letters left by Yan Jing over his head.
Emperor Yongping was stunned for a moment. Eunuch Lan next to him stepped forward, took the letter from the eunuch, checked it for a moment, and handed it to Emperor Yongping.
Emperor Yongping breathed a long sigh, slowly reached out, took the letter, took out the letter paper from the envelope, slowly unfolded it, and started to look.
Yan Jing’s letter is not long, it can be said to be very short.
In the letter, Yan Jing did not say why he resigned. He only said that he had gone north to fight against the Northern Barbarians before and saw a different Tang Dynasty. He was going to take this time to take a good look at the Tang Dynasty.
By the way, Yan Jing mentioned the stupidity of King Gong Li Zhen's suppression of rumors.
The reason why this matter was Yan Jing's final reward to Emperor Yongping was a complete relationship between the king and the subject.
"Yuan Shu, even you don't believe me!"
Emperor Yongping's heart is now like a knife.
The civil and military officials in the court relied on the most and trusted by Yan Jing. This kind of trust even exceeded the trust in the King of Yan. After all, the King of Yan was his brother and a brother who could seize the throne. But Yan Jing would never have the possibility of seizing the throne.
"You, go and summon King Gong to meet you immediately!"
Although he was heartbroken, Emperor Yongping quickly calmed down and turned his attention to the fact that Prince Gong Li Jun mentioned as Yan Jing, suppressing rumors.
In the past two days, Emperor Yongping also summoned King Gong and asked about quelling rumors. King Gong's reply was that it was about to be done.
Originally, Emperor Yongping was about to ask King Gong how he handled it, but at that time he received a message, a message that forced Emperor Yongping to concentrate on paying attention.
