When they heard that Fang Yun was going to accuse Li Wenying, they thought that it was some serious crime.
However, after listening to Fang Yun's list of four conditions, the Throne Room fell silent.
No one spoke up for Li Wenying.
Zhang Poyue, who was about to scold Fang Yun, was like a deflated balloon. His eyes darted around like a thief.
The first two charges could be attributed to Li Wenying's lack of discipline, but the last two charges were too far-fetched.
What miscalculation? Li Wenying had left the Sacred Academy Continent a long time ago. How could this matter be related to him?
As for not attacking the Left Prime Minister, Li Wenying had been resisting. However, Prime Minister Wen and the other officials were afraid that he would be too aggressive, so they transferred him to Jiangzhou to prevent the matter from getting out of hand.
If it was just these four charges, Li Wenying would not be defeated. Even if the first two charges were proven, he would only lose his salary at most.
Would Fang Yun be stupid enough to attack Li Wenying with these useless charges?
No one thought that Fang Yun was stupid.
Therefore, Fang Yun must have other motives.
The officials started to think about Fang Yun's fourth charge.
Fang Yun thought that Li Wenying did not fight with the Liu Faction.
Then, from another perspective, if Li Wenying did not fight with the former Left Prime Minister, would he fight with the new Left Prime Minister under Fang Yun's control?
The officials were all deep in thought.
What made the officials ponder was the punishment that Fang Yun gave, which was exile to Borderline Mountain.
If Li Wenying was exiled to other places, Fang Yun might really punish him. However, if Li Wenying was sent to Borderline Mountain, he would be like a fish in water.
Li Wenying had wanted to guard Borderline Mountain for a long time, but he was persuaded by the Empress Dowager and Prime Minister Wen. Li Wenying was too important to Jingguo. If he left, the Jingguo Royal Family would lose an arm.
It could even be said that the power of the Liu Party had not developed much in Jiangzhou back then. Apart from the Soaring Eagle Troop, who had been unable to intervene in military affairs, Li Wenying had contributed the most.
Although Borderline Mountain had been in a state of war for a long time, few human Confucian scholars had died in battles. Especially Li Wenying, a young Confucian scholar with a bright future, he would definitely be secretly protected by the saints.
Moreover, Li Wenying was good at fighting and killing. He had gained a lot in the three years he spent in the Double World Mountain.
Therefore, almost every official guessed that Fang Yun didn't really want to oppose Li Wenying. Instead, he wanted to temporarily transfer Li Wenying away, just like how Kang Ha-chuan was transferred away from Jingguo.
In that case, Fang Yun's goal was as clear as day.
After a short period of silence, Right Prime Minister Cao Dean walked out of the ranks of officials and said, "Chen agrees. Li Wenying did not manage his subordinates well. He was exiled to the Two Boundaries Mountain and trained for three years before he could lead his subordinates. However, the Duke of Jianmei is still a pillar of the country. Other than his official position, everything else should be treated according to the old rules. We can't disappoint him. "
Then, Sai Zhixue, Cai He, Yu Xingshu, and the other officials all agreed.
Finally, Zhang Poyue also walked out of the ranks of generals and said seriously, "That's right. I don't like Li Wenying for a long time. I support exiling him to Borderline Mountain! I don't care about the position of a general. Can you let me be the Minister of War? "
Some of the officials rolled their eyes at him.
Most of the officials were silent because they didn't know what Li Wenying's intentions were. If Li Wenying wanted to go to Borderline Mountain, they would offend both Fang Yun and Li Wenying.
The Minister of Rites, Sheng Boyuan, said, "I object. The first two crimes that Fang Yun has committed are insignificant. At most, he will be fined half a year's salary. The last two are just groundless accusations. They're basically framing him! In my opinion, Fang Yun framed his colleagues and is not worthy of being the Minister of War. He's more suitable to be exiled to Borderline Mountain than the Duke of Jianmei! "
"I second that! The Duke of Jianmei is the mainstay of Jingguo. He's famous. Fang Yun is just a kid. How can we punish him so casually? Fang Yun is just like the previous Minister of War, the thief Liu. You have to be careful. Ministers, you have to be careful! "
"I object to Minister Fang's words …"
Some of the officials stood up to criticize Fang Yun, while others supported Fang Yun. Both sides were quarreling.
Li Wenying stood in place. He lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows.
Just three days ago, he received a gift from Fang Yun. Other than some literature treasures and rare treasures, there were also Sacred Blood, Sacred Pages, and other items that could help in battle. At the same time, there was also the Sacred Incense of Enlightenment, Flesh Growing Fruit, Sacred Body Fruit, Algae Fish, Heart Cleansing Grass, and many other precious treasures.
Just one Sacred Body Fruit was enough for Li Wenying to exchange for three years, not to mention other things.
Li Wenying raised his head and looked at Fang Yun's back.
At that time, he didn't know the purpose of Fang Yun's gift. But now, he basically understood.
Li Wenying thought quietly. Countless memories related to Fang Yun appeared in his mind.
Because of the Epigraph of My Shack, he met Fang Yun for the first time.
When the Demon Turtle was fighting for the Great Confucian's filthy text, he finally arrived and successfully protected Fang Yun and the others. Then, he killed his way into the Yangtze River and slaughtered the aquatic demons.
Later, when Fang Yun was taking the imperial examination, he taught Fang Yun the meaning of the scriptures.
When Fang Yun was besieged by the Flood Dragon King and almost died, Li Wenying appeared and killed the Flood Dragon King.
Tong Luan pretended to find Fang Yun with the reason of his grandson's death, but was scared away by Li Wenying's Blood Draining Ancient Sword.
Before Li Wenying left Saint Origin World for the Ancient Land, Fang Yun wrote a poem, Farewell Li Wenying in the Snow, as a gift.
Don't worry about not knowing a friend on the road ahead. Who doesn't know you?
Many years later, when Li Wenying returned from the Ancient Land, he wrote a poem, Gift to Fang Yun. He saved Fang Yun from the fire and water and helped Fang Yun defeat the Demon Emperor's clone.
Three thousand guests drunk with flowers, one sword froze fourteen provinces!
Li Wenying never thought that the two of them would oppose each other in the imperial court.
Fang Yun didn't look at Li Wenying. Li Wenying could only look at Fang Yun's back.
In the Throne Room, the officials were still arguing over this matter.
In the eyes of the royalists, the departure of Prime Minister Wen was already a great loss. If Li Wenying, who hated evil, was also transferred away, then no one in the imperial court could stop Fang Yun. No one could make Fang Yun show mercy.
Although the Right Prime Minister Cao Dean had a lot of experience, he was too slick. He was like a piece of paper in front of Mount Liu. He was even worse in front of Fang Yun.
Assistant Prime Minister Yang Xuwen was a person of virtue and prestige, but he didn't have any old friendship with Fang Yun. If he really fell out with Fang Yun, his ending wouldn't be any better than Mount Liu's.
Grand Marshal Chen Zhixu could pressure Fang Yun. However, Chen Zhixu wouldn't participate in the fight between factions. As long as Fang Yun didn't usurp the throne, Chen Zhixu wouldn't oppose him.
As for the five Half-saint Aristocratic Families, needless to say, in their eyes, the imperial court was just a slightly higher ranking official. Fang Yun was the one who was qualified to sit on the same level as them.
Protecting Li Wenying was the same as curbing Fang Yun's ambition to control the entire Jingguo.
At this moment, the Empress Dowager coughed from behind the curtain.
The quarreling stopped abruptly.
All the officials looked at the curtain and the woman's figure behind it.
In the Throne Room, the Empress Dowager rarely spoke to the officials directly. Every time she spoke, it was either something that didn't involve government affairs or something important.
