Chapter 625 Refers to a horse as a deer
"Your Majesty, when I put down the rebellion, I came across an auspicious white deer. I would like to present it to Your Majesty for your enjoyment."
The corners of Zhang Jing's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
Li Xian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "The governor is interested, that's fine, I will let the civil and military officials open their eyes and see the auspicious white deer."
There are many such things as deer in the Central Plains, but the white deer is still rare, and it can also be called an auspicious thing. It is usually not seen once in a hundred years. Zhang Jing must be willing to accept Li Xian's kindness in offering the white deer up.
So, very good!
Li Xian was very happy and felt that he would be free from worries in a short time.
Zhang Jing nodded, glanced at Situ Qi, and nodded at him.
Situ Qi understood and walked out of Fengtian Hall.
Han Qianshu took a deep breath, he was aware of this matter, and at the same time he was a little excited, because what Zhang Jing was going to do was a big deal.
soon,
There was a rumbling sound from outside the main hall, and a huge cage wrapped in red cloth was carried in by four burly men.
All civil and military officials backed away and made way for a path.
"Boom"
The four big men put the cage on the ground, and there was a bang.
"Your Majesty, inside the cage is the auspicious white deer," Zhang Jing said to Li Xian calmly as he stepped forward.
"Oh?" Li Xian became interested, but he was quite mysterious unexpectedly.
"The governor, let me open my eyes." Li Xian smiled softly.
"it is good."
Zhang Jing nodded, stepped forward and grabbed the red cloth, pulled it suddenly, and tore the red cloth off.
Boom!
The civil and military officials in Fengtian Temple fell into a deathly silence.
Because the cage is not an auspicious white deer, but a very ordinary mule and horse, not only a mule and a horse, but also a black one, which has nothing to do with white.
"Please look, Your Majesty, this is the auspicious white deer that I gave to Your Majesty."
Zhang Jing smiled lightly.
"This is a white deer?"
"Is this a deer?"
"Is this white?"
"What does Commander Zhang want to do?"
"This is not teasing us, but your Majesty."
All the officials in the court were in an instant commotion, with various voices talking endlessly.
A look of surprise flashed in Uncle Duan's eyes. He didn't expect Zhang Jing to make trouble today, and it was such a small trick.
Xue Ning fell silent, the expression in his eyes fluctuated, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
A gleam of anger flashed in Li Xian's eyes, did Zhang Jing treat him as a fool?
Eunuch Li’s eyes flashed with anger, and he shouted:
"Presumptuous, Zhang Jing, are you humiliating His Majesty? How dare you call a black horse a white deer, is there such absurd things in the world?"
Zhang Jing glanced at Eunuch Li lightly, making him instantly feel a terrifying pressure on him.
Didn't talk to Eunuch Li, Zhang Jing turned to Li Xian and asked:
"Your Majesty, do you still like this auspicious white deer?"
Li Xian held back his anger and smiled lightly: "Commander, although I have never left Shangjing and seen the world, I have seen some deer and horses. This is obviously a horse. Why did the White Deer come from?" Say? Could it be that the sergeant mistaken Xiangrui?"
Even at this moment, Li Xian did not dare to turn his face, but gave both sides a step down, because it is too unwise to turn their faces now.
Zhang Jing shook his head: "Your Majesty hasn't been out of Shangjing all year round, and this governor came up from the weak all the way. This governor is sure that this is a white deer, a genuine white deer, but your majesty has never seen a white deer. "
Li Xian gritted his teeth, panted slightly, and did not speak.
Eunuch Li on the side said coldly:
"Minister Zhang, Your Majesty has never been out of Shangjing, but I have been out of Shangjing. Don't you know what this white deer is? Governor Sheng. Your Majesty's promise of the East Sea King, isn't it enough?"
"General Governor, enough is enough!"
Zhang Jing took a step forward, swung his right fist suddenly, and a terrifying force blasted out from Zhang Jing's fist.
Eunuch Li turned pale with fright and wanted to block it, but the divine sword in front of him collided with the strength of the fist and was directly knocked away, and the strength of the fist hit him firmly.
"Pfft..." Eunuch Li's face turned pale, and he backed away tens of meters before he stabilized.
With the power of one punch, Zhang Jing even used only a small part of his strength to vomit blood from Eunuch Li's mouth.
There was a shock and silence in the hall. No one thought that Zhang Jing would strike at the slightest disagreement, and no one would give him face.
"Governor, what are you going to do?" Li Xian stood up with a livid face.
Zhang Jing glanced coldly at Eunuch Li:
"The governor is talking to His Majesty, is it your turn to intervene?"
Eunuch Li is extremely loyal to the royal family, and he is against Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing has long wanted to get rid of him.
It's just that Eunuch Li never goes out of the palace, and Zhang Jing has no chance to kill him even if he wants to.
"Presumptuous. Zhang mirrors you. How dare you." Eunuch Li's chest heaved unsteadily, obviously also irritated.
Since he was born in the realm of heaven and man for hundreds of years, who would dare to say that he is an eunuch?
Now that Zhang Jing not only said it, but also said it in front of the public, civil and military officials, how could it calm him down?
"Huh? Who gave you the courage to call Ben Du directly by his name?"
Zhang Jing's murderous intent permeated the air, and the entire Fengtian Temple became a little colder. Some civil servants who had no strength to restrain their hands felt a chill on their backs and urinated directly.
"Great governor, please calm down. Eunuch Li just said something unintentionally." Li Xian gritted his teeth and stood in front of Eunuch Li.
"It's only for a while for the governor to calm down," Xue Ning advised.
"Great Governor"
Several people persuaded, not wanting to have a war between heaven and man directly in this Fengtian Temple.
Zhang Jing narrowed his eyes, and suddenly laughed: "Why are you so nervous, Your Majesty and everyone? This governor is just making a joke with Mr. Li, and it can't be serious."
Looking at Zhang Jing who suddenly laughed out loud, many people couldn't help but wonder, is this a joke?
Saying this is a joke in itself.
But when Zhang Jingjin opened his mouth, everyone could only smile and nod.
"That's good. The governor and Eunuch Li are both my big humerus. They should be the same to the outside world. How can they make jokes at will, ha ha ha."
Li Xian's smile was a bit bitter.
"The joke is over, let's continue to talk about business. This white deer is the auspiciousness that the governor dedicated to His Majesty. I hope His Majesty will like it." Zhang Jing smiled lightly.
"Great governor here."
Li Xian knew that once he accepted the "White Deer", the majesty of Daqi's royal family would be lost, and the people in the world would definitely discuss and laugh at him as a fatuous emperor.
and the decline of the Li family.
Zhang Jing walked around the "White Deer" twice, and said, "Since the Governor and His Majesty have their own opinions, why don't you let all the powerful and civil and military officials come to see whether this thing is an ordinary black horse or an auspicious white deer?" .”
"The governor is not concerned about this matter." Li Xian immediately realized Zhang Jing's ruthlessness after hearing this, which made all the officials in the court stand in line.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to say too much. The governor said, let the officials come and see what it is. If it is a white deer, then your Majesty will accept it. If it is not a white deer but a black horse, then I will give it to you." The black horse killed and boiled a pot of meat for His Majesty to taste."
Li Xian took a deep breath, knowing that no matter what he could not stop Zhang Jing's thoughts, he could only nod.
Since they are going to stand in line, Li Xian also wants to see how many Da Qi Zhongliang are on the side of the royal family.
"Alright, I'll just see how you love this auspiciousness."
Zhang Jing walked forward slowly, and stood beside Li Xian, standing side by side with him.
Looking at the civil and military officials below, Zhang Jing said lightly:
"The auspiciousness presented by the Governor is a white deer, but His Majesty thinks it is a black horse, so let the adults see whether it is a white deer or a black horse. Those who think it is a white deer should stand on the side of the Governor. If it is a dark horse, stand on His Majesty's side, my lords, keep your eyes open."
There was silence in the hall, and no one dared to stand up and speak.
Just staring at the ground with lowered eyebrows, thinking about something.
Situ Qi took a deep breath, stepped forward to look at the auspiciousness carefully, and stood to the left, "I think this thing is undoubtedly a white deer."
After finishing speaking, Situ Qi didn't care about anything else, and just closed his eyes.
"Situ Qi, you are in vain as a minister," an old man with white beard and hair stood up and criticized Situ Qi, then he didn't look at it, and stood directly to the right.
He is a veteran of civil servants in the court, with a high status, and has always been at the forefront of civil officials.
But he didn't dare to accuse Zhang Jing, because that was the way to kill.
After the old man stood to the right, the remaining three commanders looked at each other and walked to the left together.
Soon more and more civil and military officials began to come forward to observe.
However, several generals in the military did not move, because the general did not have a team at the moment.
A few civil servants looked left and then again, and bowed to Li Xian:
"Your Majesty, I feel that this is the auspicious white deer."
"Yes, there is no doubt about the White Deer."
"The old and blind can only see that this thing is white."
As soon as the voices of the few people fell, Xiangrui in the cage made a sound.
"hiss hiss"
There was a neighing sound, which was the sound of a horse whining.
The three of them were embarrassed for a while, not knowing what to say.
Afterwards, one of them gritted his teeth: "Well, it's the voice of the White Deer, I heard it right."
After finishing speaking, he hurried to the left.
The other two also hurriedly nodded and hurriedly followed, not daring to raise their heads.
"What a scum! I have received the country's grace in vain." A young man snorted coldly and walked to the right.
This is the first military officer to join Li Xian's side. His duty is a position in the palace. His strength is not strong, only his innate realm.
"Master Zhang, what are you doing with me as an official?"
"Can't you see the situation clearly?"
"This"
Several people pushed and shoved to the left.
Soon, most of the civil and military officials stood in line, Li Xian looked very ugly, because only one-fifth of the officials stood on his side.
The remaining four-fifths are on Zhang Jing's side.
Moreover, some people stood on the right first, but after looking at the situation on the left, they hurried to the left regardless of the pull of the people around them.
