Dafeng Night Watchman

Chapter 387 - 157: Admit Mistakes

Chapter 387: Chapter 157: Admit Mistakes

"Zheng!"

Xu Qi'an's wrist shook, and the black-gold long sword made a slight sound, leaving a sad and beautiful bloodstain on the execution platform.

He slowly swept his eyes over the seven righteous men kneeling on the stage, the imperial guards, and the crowd of people. He took a deep breath and said loudly:

"Today, Xu Qi'an killed two thieves, not to vent his anger, not for personal grudges, but just for the pride in his heart, just to redress the injustice of Lord Zheng, just to tell the court a word..."

One after another looked at him, the scene was silent, and everyone listened silently.

Xu Qi'an's tone was sonorous and powerful, but with an unspeakable depth: "If the sky has feelings, it will also grow old, and the righteous path of the world is vicissitudes."

Xu Qi'an's eyes swept across the crowd present, looking at the blue sky in the distance. Among the white clouds, he seemed to see that stereotyped figure again, bowing to him.

Xu Qi'an returned the salute and did not look up for a long time.

Lord Zheng, have a good journey.

.......

If the sky has feelings, it will also grow old. The righteous path of the world is vicissitudes..... On the rooftop in the distance, Huai Qing, dressed in white as snow, trembled and murmured in her mouth, a little crazy.

The righteous path of the world is vicissitudes. Is this the belief you hold in your heart, Xu Qian'an? Outside the crowd, a woman of mediocre appearance, holding her heart, heard it pounding wildly.

Around Caishikou, the people who gathered in groups cried, they either lowered their heads or wiped their tears, and wept continuously.

"Dad, why are you crying? Why are all the adults crying?"

In a less crowded place, the child raised his face and blinked his eyes.

The man picked up the child, put him on his shoulder, and whispered: "Look at that man, remember this sentence, you must remember this sentence, and remember him. In the future, no matter what others say, you are not allowed to say bad things about him."

"Who is he? Why should I say bad things about him?" The child asked curiously.

"He is a hero of Dafeng, but after today, he may become a "bad guy."

Xu Qian'an put the knife back into the sheath, pulled out the carving knife nailed to the platform with a clang, and held it in his palm. A dozen high-quality warriors around the execution platform retreated in shock.

He ignored it, stepped off the execution platform, and walked out step by step.

In the process, he gently opened the special sachet given by Li Miaozhen and put the two dead souls into the bag.

The people who blocked the streets, the black crowd, consciously stepped back and made way for a straight passage.

"Xu Yinluo, accept my respect."

An old scholar with gray hair bowed.

"Xu Yinluo, accept my respect."

There was no organization, no appeal, the people present bowed, the movements were not neat, but they were from the heart.

On the roof, Huaiqing looked down at the scene and was in a trance. She was the eldest daughter of the emperor, a princess. She had seen thousands of people bowing to her.

For example, the father of the emperor who was the king of a country.

However, others were just in awe of his power and the dragon robe on his body.

Only Xu Qian'an was respected and loved by the people from the bottom of their hearts, not for anything else, but just for him.

The imperial guards who blocked the road became agitated. Looking at the young man coming towards them, they didn't know whether to attack or retreat.

They couldn't help but look at the three commanders and found that the commanders and other warriors were standing in the distance without moving, with no intention of stopping them.

"Lulu..."

The horses neighed and pushed to both sides to make way.

After walking a few hundred steps, he stopped and looked in the direction of the palace.

You don't want to admit your mistakes, right? Then I will force you to admit your mistakes.....

.......

At this time, outside the Meridian Gate, the ministers did not disperse, waiting patiently for the news to be transmitted back.

Moreover, if a war really broke out in the city, it would definitely be safest to stay in the palace. There are many masters in the palace, although they are not high-profile on weekdays.

The palace is backed by the Imperial Army Camp, the three major camps of Baizhan, Shenji, and Cavalry, with a total of 100,000 Imperial Army, which is directly under the emperor's army.

Finally, there are actually many masters among the military generals and nobles, such as Que Yongxiu, who is a fifth-rank official.

The civil and military officials whispered to each other, discussing how to end this matter, whether the two dukes Cao Guogong and Huguogong were dead or alive.

But they were all a little absent-minded, and their eyes frequently looked towards the direction of the palace gate.

Finally, a soldier holding the hilt of the knife ran from outside the palace.

Wang Shoufu stepped forward, stopped the soldier, and asked in a deep voice: "What's the situation outside the palace? Have the imperial guards subdued Xu Qi'an? Are Duke Cao and Duke Huguo safe?"

This imperial guard was going to report to the emperor, and he didn't want to pay attention to Wang Shoufu. He dodged and continued to move forward.

However, several generals stood in front of him and shouted: "Speak!"

With the sound of "clattering" footsteps, hundreds of civil officials and generals of different ranks stepped forward and rushed over.

"......" The soldier was suddenly under pressure that he shouldn't have in his position, and said with a stiff face:

"Duke Cao and Duke Huguo were dragged to Caishikou and beheaded."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Duke Cao and Duke Huguo were dragged to Caishikou and killed...... This news made the civil and military officials present speechless for a long time.

Although the officials present knew what kind of person Xu Qian'an was, especially Sun Shangshu and Dali Temple Qing and others who had opposed him.

But when they really confirmed that Cao Guogong and Hu Guogong were beheaded and displayed to the public, they still felt absurd.

"What a lawless man..." an official murmured.

"He is a hateful person." Sun Shangshu looked at the man, paused for a moment, and added:

"But he is also a respectable person."

Around him, several civil servants who were on good terms with Sun Shangshu looked at him in disbelief.

Sun Shangshu said lightly: "I want to cut this boy into pieces, but that is just my personal grudge. Que Yongxiu assisted the tyrant and massacred 380,000 innocent people. He is a villain who cannot be tolerated by heaven. Good killing, good killing."

Good killing, good killing...... Many civil servants said silently in their hearts.

Among them, some are willing to compromise for interests, some dare not violate the imperial power, and some are indifferent and keep themselves safe. Some people were filled with righteous indignation, but were forced to remain silent due to the situation.

However, everyone has a scale in their hearts about right and wrong.

Wei Yuan and Wang Shoufu looked at each other, without any surprise, as if they had foreseen the development of the matter long ago.

"Is one day enough?" Wei Yuan said lightly.

"Enough." Wang Shoufu nodded slightly.

.......

In the bedroom.

Emperor Yuan Jing stood with his back to the door, his hands behind his back, without saying a word. The old eunuch beside him bowed his head slightly, not daring to breathe.

He had served Emperor Yuan Jing for many years and knew the emperor's temperament well. He would overturn the table to vent his emotions, but that was just to vent his emotions. After venting, he would not really take it to heart.

But if he was silent for more than an incense stick of time, it meant that the emperor began to seriously calculate and plan something, as if he was treating a great enemy.

It's really strange. He was not so gloomy and scary when he was handling the case of the King of Zhenbei. Instead, he was so "out of control" after Xu Qi'an kidnapped the two dukes.

Even if Xu Qi'an killed the two dukes to vent his anger, it would not be a loss for His Majesty. After all, His Majesty's goal has been achieved.

At this time, footsteps came quickly and the guards stopped at the door.

Emperor Yuan Jing suddenly turned around and said in a deep voice: "Speak!"

The guard stood at the door and clasped his fists and said: "Xu Qian'an beheaded the two dukes at Caishikou, and, and..."

Hearing that Duke Cao and Duke Huguo were beheaded, Emperor Yuan Jing's face showed anger and shouted: "Say it all in one breath."

The guard trembled and said: "And in front of more than a thousand people, slandered Your Majesty, saying... saying that Your Majesty condoned the King of Zhenbei to massacre the city, and Duke Huguo Que Yongxiu was the one who did it."

Emperor Yuan Jing's pupils suddenly contracted. After a few seconds, his hands in his sleeves trembled slightly, and his face twitched clearly. He said word by word:

"Is this dog thief still alive?"

"He, he entered the Sitianjian, and the commanders failed to stop him, because, because he held a carving knife in his hand..."

Feeling the emperor's anger, the guard spoke tremblingly.

In the hall, the silence was terrible, and you could hear a pin drop.

The atmosphere was frozen, the old eunuch didn't even dare to breathe, his fat body trembled slightly.

After a long time, the emotionless voice of Emperor Yuan Jing came: "Immediately send people to arrest Xu Qi'an's family, take them to the boss, and wait for punishment. If they resist, they will be killed on the spot.

"Send 500 imperial guards to the Sitianjian to arrest Xu Qi'an; notify the cabinet to immediately draft a notice: Yinluo Xu Qi'an is a spy of the Wushen Cult, who used the Zheng Xinghuai case to stir up trouble and ruin the reputation of our Dafeng royal family."

After the old eunuch took the order and left, Emperor Yuan Jing whispered to himself: "The luck can't be dispersed anymore. "

........

Soon, a group of imperial guards rode to Xu's house, and the gate was closed.

The imperial guards kicked open the gate and rushed into Xu's house, but found that it was already empty. The furniture and supplies were complete, but there was no valuable item.

These imperial guards were the elite among the elite, and they did not smash things randomly to vent their anger. After a careful search, they quickly left and returned to the palace to report.

On the other side, the old eunuch personally led people to the cabinet and saw the gray-haired Wang Shoufu in the hall.

"Your Majesty has an order to quickly draft a notice: Yinluo Xu Qi'an is a spy of the Wushen Cult. He used the Zheng Xinghuai case to stir up trouble and ruin the reputation of the Dafeng royal family."

The old eunuch spoke very quickly and conveyed the words of Emperor Yuan Jing verbatim.

Wang Shoufu listened carefully, nodded, and said: "Return it! "

These two words mean: disagree!

The cabinet has the power to refute, and the so-called refutation is to strike back the emperor's bad and incorrect will.

"What did you say?"

The old eunuch suspected that he had heard it wrong. He scratched his ears and said, "Sir, can you say it again?"

Wang Shoufu looked at him calmly: "Return it."

The old eunuch's face was gloomy, and he said in a threatening voice: "Sir, this is an extraordinary period. Why do you have to offend His Majesty at this time? Your position is watched by countless people. "

After a pause, his tone softened, "The whole world belongs to the king. This world is His Majesty's world. As ministers, even if we have opinions in our hearts, we can just keep them to ourselves. Why do we have to make things difficult for His Majesty? "

Wang Shoufu stood up expressionlessly and walked out.

The old eunuch was about to get angry when he saw that he was not appreciative of his kindness, and heard the old man's calm voice: "I am not feeling well, so I will go back to the palace first. If your majesty needs to summon you, let's talk tomorrow."

"How dare you..." The old eunuch was so angry that he trembled.

He immediately took a sedan chair, carried by the guards, and returned to the palace and went straight to the bedroom.

In the bedroom, sandalwood was curling, and Emperor Yuan Jing was sitting cross-legged on the futon, his face calm, as if nothing had happened.

His ears moved, and then he said coldly: "Have you finished explaining?"

"Yes..." The old eunuch stammered and whispered: "Wang Shoufu, sent back your oral order."

Emperor Yuan Jing was silent for a few seconds, and said coldly: "Call him to see me. "

The old eunuch swallowed his saliva and spoke even more quietly: "Prime Minister Wang said he was not feeling well and went back to rest. He also said that if your majesty has anything to say, you can find him tomorrow."

Emperor Yuan Jing opened his eyes and laughed in anger: "Old thing, you really think I dare not dismiss him. Since you are not feeling well, don't take up your position. Inform all officials to attend court tomorrow."

Recently, court meetings have been held day after day, more frequent than during the imperial examination. Since the emperor practiced Taoism, there has never been such a dense court meeting.

At this time, a commander of the imperial guards came to the outside of the bedroom and said loudly: "Your Majesty."

The old eunuch saluted, hurried out, whispered a few words with the commander of the imperial guards, returned with an ugly face, and whispered:

"Your Majesty, Xu Qian'an's family had already escaped in advance and their whereabouts are unknown. Over at the Sitianjian, the observatory was shrouded in a formation for a hundred feet, and the imperial guards could not enter. "

Emperor Yuan Jing sneered: "Sure enough, it was premeditated."

After a pause, he whispered: "What else did the Supervisor say?"

The old eunuch replied: "It was not the Supervisor, but Yang Qianhuan who took action and severely ridiculed the Imperial Guards."

Emperor Yuan Jing was relieved.

He stopped talking and thought about how to save the situation.

Xu Qi'an was just a silver gong after all, and could not represent the court. This behavior could be defined as a martial man breaking the law, but this was not enough. If he wanted to convince the people, he had to frame Xu Qi'an and label him a spy of the Wushen Cult.

Then he sent people to spread rumors in the capital and cooperate with the court notice. This would be far more credible than the rhetoric of this beast in Caishikou.

But before that, he had to settle the civil service group first. Now that things have reversed, many civil servants who dare not speak out are likely to "break the jar and break the pot", so he will kill the chicken to scare the monkeys at the court meeting tomorrow.

Wang Shoufu is the chicken he wants to kill.

.......

Sitianjian, Baguatai.

The supervisor stood on the roof, with his hands behind his back, his white clothes fluttering, and he was as graceful as a banished immortal.

He looked down at the capital city intently, and after a while, he smiled knowingly: "The situation is set!"

At this time, a figure in white appeared, with his back to the supervisor, standing with his hands behind his back, and said in the most arrogant tone, "Thank you for your help, teacher. I feel comfortable today. Well, what happened? Why did the imperial guards want to arrest Xu Qiyan, and why did you ask me to stop them?"

The supervisor said in a very happy mood: "Xu Qiyan intercepted all officials at the Meridian Gate, kidnapped the Duke of Huguo and the Duke of Cao, and beheaded them at the Caishikou. He won the love and respect of the people, but this also ruined his future."

After saying that, he felt that his disciple was not calm enough and too impetuous, so he took the opportunity to knock him and make him realize that learning from Xu Qiyan would lead to a dead end.

"If it were you, would you dare?"

Yang Qianhuan's body stiffened, and then recovered, with a calm tone: "So that's it, well, teacher, I'll go back to practice."

So calm? It seems that he can still distinguish the important from the unimportant... The Supervisor nodded with satisfaction.

Yang Qianhuan's figure flashed and disappeared.

Then, the Supervisor sensed Yang Qianhuan's breath and fled quickly to the palace.....

.... The Supervisor's face seemed to twitch and he stomped his foot.

Faintly, Yang Qianhuan's heart-wrenching roar came from the ground of the Star Observation Tower: "Master Supervisor..., you can't do this to me, no!!!"

........

This morning, the incident that happened in Caishikou spread at lightning speed, which was different from other topics that were only brought up in spare time.

The incident of Xu Qian'an beheading Duke Cao and Duke Huguo was deliberately spread by the people who were present at the time.

By lunch time, the news spread throughout the inner city and then spread from the inner city. At the latest, by dusk, the people in the outer city would know about it.

Zhao Er is a scoundrel who is idle all day long. He always has no money in his pocket. He either goes to the casino to satisfy his desire to play or spends it on the bellies of women in the brothels.

He has been living a very comfortable life these days, because he only needs to talk to get a silver coin in return. It is a good thing that falls from the sky.

This job was spread out from a gang called the Green Hand Gang, and it is specifically for scoundrels like Zhao Er. The requirements are very simple, just spread the rumor that Yunzhou Governor Zheng Xinghuai is colluding with monsters.

Today, the Green Hand Gang issued a new task, which is similar to the rumor, but the protagonist has changed to Yinluo Xu Qian'an.

After receiving the task, Zhao Er did not start working immediately, but went to the brothel to be a money-spreading boy. When it was time for lunch, he came to a big restaurant with ease.

He has been to this restaurant twice, and both times he spread the rumor that Zheng Xinghuai is colluding with monsters.

There is no place more suitable for "working" than a restaurant. Of course, a brothel must be a suitable place, but Zhao Er is a scoundrel who likes pleasure. In a brothel, he only wants to...

There is another important reason. There is a beautiful woman living in this restaurant, and there is always a mediocre woman by her side.

Zhao Er stepped into the threshold of the hotel. There were noisy voices in the hall, and many diners were sitting. He looked around and saw that only a mediocre woman was sitting at the familiar table.

She was in a daze, frowning, and seemed to be worried. She didn't eat a bite of food for a long time.

That beautiful woman is not here... Zhao Er was a little disappointed. He chose an empty table to sit down, ordered wine and food, and listened with his ears perked up.

As expected, he soon heard the talk about Yinluo Xu Qian'an.

"Do you know that Xu Yinluo beheaded two dukes at Caishikou this morning? I didn't expect that the truth of the Chuzhou massacre was actually..."

The person who spoke seemed to be afraid to continue, but he was unwilling to give up, and punched the table hard with his fist.

The topic was immediately opened, and the diners expressed their opinions indignantly.

"I didn't expect that among all the officials in the court, not one of them stood up to speak."

"Xu Yinluo is not only a hero, but also the only conscience left in our Dafeng."

"Yes, who can exchange his future and life for justice? It is people like Xu Yinluo who are most likely to be framed by traitors and fools."

"He is no longer Yinluo. Alas, my Dafeng has lost two good officials this time. The governor of Chuzhou, Mr. Zheng, is also a loyal person."

"Will Xu Yinluo be beheaded?"

"Humph, if the court dares to kill Xu Yinluo, we will block the gate of the imperial city."

"That's right, if you have the guts, kill us all, we will block the gate of the imperial city."

At first, only one or two tables of diners were talking, and gradually, other diners joined in the discussion, and their words were filled with indignation.

Suddenly, a discordant voice came, it was Zhao Er.

He slapped the table and said loudly: "You have all been blinded by the traitor. In fact, the truth is not like this."

Zhao Er concluded that interrupting suddenly when the atmosphere reached its peak can easily attract the attention of others.

He planned to repeat his previous operation and discredit Xu Yinluo like he discredited Zheng Xinghuai.

Sure enough, all the diners in the hall looked over.

After Zhao Er gained attention, he immediately said: "I have a relative who is an official in the court. I heard a big secret from him."

Everyone subconsciously asked: "What secret?"

Zhao Er spoke loudly as if he was announcing something important:

"Xu Yinluo is actually a spy of the Northeast Wushen Cult. He has been lurking in Dafeng to gain reputation. This time, he finally seized the opportunity to use the fact that Zheng Xinghuai, the governor of Chuzhou, colluded with the monsters and framed the King of Zhenbei. He used his own reputation to kill the Duke and discredit the court.

"You were all deceived by him. His words cannot be believed. Just think about it, why did the King of Zhenbei want to massacre the city? How could His Majesty agree? Use your brains.

His words drew fierce rebuttals from the guests in the hall: "Nonsense, how could Xu Yinluo be a spy of the Wushen Cult? What evidence do you have? How dare you slander Xu Yinluo? Do you want to live?"

Zhao Er was not afraid at all. He sneered and snorted:

"There are many outstanding people in Dafeng. Is there really only one Xu Yinluo? How is it possible? Think about it again. If it was really the King of Zhenbei who massacred the city, why didn't the officials in the court stand up and speak for Zheng Xinghuai?

"Rights and wrongs are actually very simple. Smart people can see through them at a glance. You are just deceived by Xu Yinluo's previous glory. He is just a hypocritical spy.

"I swear, every word is true. I have a relative who is an official in the court."

These words are very skillful, well-reasoned and logical.

"Bang! "Just then, a wine glass came over and hit Zhao Er on the head.

He looked angrily and found that it was the plain-looking woman.

"You stinky woman, you dare to hit me?" Zhao Er was furious and rolled up his sleeves to teach her a lesson.

The plain-looking woman was not afraid at all. She pinched her waist with one hand and pointed at Zhao Er with the other hand, shouting:

"It's this person. Yesterday, he spread rumors in the store that Zheng Xinghuai colluded with the demons, and today he came to spread rumors that Xu Yinluo was a spy."

Zhao Er's face changed and he said viciously: "I didn't, stinky woman, if you talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death this year."

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter of the restaurant stared at him for a long time, and finally recognized him. He pointed at him and said loudly:

"Yes, yes, yes, it's this person. He also came here yesterday to say bad things about Mr. Zheng. I think he is a spy."

"Damn it, beat him! "At this point, the angry diners could not bear it any longer, so they rolled up their sleeves and surrounded Zhao Er, beating him up.

The hall was in chaos, and more than a dozen people surrounded Zhao Er, punching and kicking him.

"Stop, stop beating, someone's dead, help, help..." Zhao Er held his head, curled up, and begged for mercy.

The diners ignored him and kicked him hard, and some people picked up a bench and smashed it hard.

The old shopkeeper helped from the side: "Beat him hard, you don't have to pay for breaking the tables and chairs, and throw him to the street if he dies. "

The plain-looking woman pinched her waist with both hands, raised her chin and snorted, feeling that she had done something extraordinary. She went upstairs with a heroic spirit and returned to her room.

Similar incidents happened constantly in various districts of the huge capital.

........

At dusk, the old eunuch hurried into the bedroom, passed through the outer room, entered the depths of the bedroom, and came to the side of Emperor Yuan Jing who was sitting cross-legged.

"Your Majesty, the news came back from outside the palace, and the rumors can't be spread out..."

Emperor Yuan Jing opened his eyes and stared at him gloomily: "Can't be spread out?"

The old eunuch whispered: "Most of those who said bad things about Xu Qian'an were beaten by the people in the city, and several lives were lost."

..... Emperor Yuan Jing's voice rose in vain: "When did he have such a reputation? "

The old eunuch could not answer.

Emperor Yuan Jing gritted his teeth and said, "An ant can bite me without knowing it."

......

The next day, at the hour of Mao.

At the Bagua Terrace, Xu Qian'an held the wine jar and stood on the edge of the high platform, facing the wind, silently looking at the direction of the palace wall, without saying a word.

The drums of the Meridian Gate sounded, and the civil and military officials passed through the Meridian Gate in an orderly manner and crossed the Jinshui Bridge. Most of the officials stayed outside the palace, while the officials entered the Jinluan Palace.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Emperor Yuan Jing, wearing a Taoist robe, came late, expressionless, majestic and deep.

He sat upright on the dragon chair, looked at Wang Shoufu, with a bit of sneer:

"I heard that Wang Shoufu was ill recently, so he doesn't need to go to court. I will give you a three-month vacation to recuperate, and the affairs of the cabinet will be handed over to Zhao Tingfang, the Grand Secretary of the Dongge, for the time being. "

The faces of the officials changed slightly.

Your Majesty is going to change the Prime Minister, first to remove him, then to change him.

Is this how it starts?

Prime Minister Wang bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuan Jing no longer looked at him. It was too late to give in now. He turned around and looked at the officials, saying word by word:

"I am very angry!

"Because there are traitors in the court, who killed the Duke, slandered the royal family, and slandered the court. Such traitors should be executed with their entire clans!"

In the hall, the officials bowed their heads and said nothing.

Emperor Yuan Jing looked at Wei Yuan and said in a deep voice: "Wei Yuan, Xu Qi'an is your man, you are responsible for this matter. I give you three days to arrest this thief and his family."

Wei Yuan stepped out and bowed, saying: "Yes."

You, Wei Qingyi, are not as noble as the folk legend says... Emperor Yuan Jing's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and continued to ask:

"Regarding the treatment of the traitor Xu Qi'an, do you have anything else to add?"

Zhang Xingying stepped out of the queue and said, "I have something to report."

Emperor Yuan Jing looked at him, nodded and said, "Say."

Zhang Xingying bowed, was silent for a few seconds, and then said loudly: "The King of Zhenbei colluded with the Wushen Cult to massacre 380,000 people in Chuzhou City. The protector of the country, Que Yongxiu, personally performed the swordsmanship, and then, together with Cao Guogong, killed Zheng Xinghuai, the chief envoy of Chuzhou..."

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Yuan Jing shouted loudly: "Asshole! Zhang Xingying, do you want to reverse the case?"

I wonder where Xu Qi'an's courage comes from. It turns out that he is colluding with you. Do you know what it is to slander the prince and the duke? "

Emperor Yuan Jing glared at Zhang Xingying, the emperor's majesty was like the ocean tide.

Zhang Xingying raised his head, looked at Emperor Yuan Jing without giving in, and slowly shook his head: "I don't want to reverse the case."

Emperor Yuan Jing stared at him: "Then what do you want to do?"

Facing the emperor's question, Zhang Xingying actually took another step forward, as if he wanted to compete with the emperor with his own momentum. He said loudly: "Your Majesty is guilty. The first crime is to condone the massacre of Zhenbei King. The second crime is to harbor Zhenbei King. and the Protector.

"Your Majesty, please give me an edict to punish yourself!"

The lingering sound echoed.

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the court hall, but it was like thunder, and it was earth-shattering.

Emperor Yuan Jing's mind was shocked. What did he hear?

Issue an edict to sin against yourself?

This little censor dared to let him issue an edict against himself.

"I think you are crazy."

Emperor Yuan Jing was very angry. The majesty of the king had been provoked by ants. A mere censor dared to ask him to write an edict of sin.

"Zhang Xingying, I suspect that you colluded with Xu Qi'an to kill the Duke and slander the prince. Someone is here to take him to the sky prison."

After saying that, he saw a man in green clothes coming out of the queue.

Emperor Yuan Jing snorted coldly: "I have made up my mind, no one can beg for mercy, otherwise, they will be punished with the same crime."

This group of civil servants are the best at picking on the nose and the face. It seems that beating Wang Shoufu is not enough. Zhang Xingying must be added to the list.

The man in green clothes said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

Emperor Yuan Jing froze suddenly, and squeezed out every word through his teeth: "You are so brave, what's the matter? I have helped you to this position, do you think you can check and balance me?"

Wei Yuan didn't answer.

At this time, the king's chief assistant came out and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

Another one... The royal family members and nobles were shocked. If they hadn't smelled the "conspiracy" at this time, they would be too slow.

Emperor Yuan Jing has been playing power for decades, and is only more discerning than the clan and nobles. He sneered again and again: "I asked you why you were so stubborn yesterday. It turns out that you have connected with Wei Yuan a long time ago, and you are going to commit this great crime of disrespect this morning.

"Okay, okay, what a good Wang Shoufu, what a good Wei Qingyi. You two have been fighting for so many years, and in the end, you joined forces to deal with me."

He slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Wang Zhenwen, how many times can you, this old bone, withstand a stick, huh?!"

He is still sitting upright because he is the king.

So what if Wei Yuan and Wang Zhenwen teamed up, he could convince them both once and the second time.

"What other moves are there? Who else are you connecting with? Even if you use them, if anyone dares to stand up today, it will be disrespectful and disrespectful. Pull out the court staff!" Emperor Yuan Jing sneered.

The court staff is a common method used by emperors to deal with officials. This is not a light threat. You must know that through the ages, countless officials have died from the court staff and been beaten to death.

Emperor Yuan Jing believed that at this moment, all the princes must realize in their hearts that once the court stick is used, it will be hit to death.

When the civil servants are passionate and united, he will be wary and patient, but if there are only four or five here and there, beating them to death will intimidate all the officials.

Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment came out and said, "Your Majesty condoned King Zhenbei beforehand, and protected King Zhenbei and Duke Protector afterwards. Please issue an edict to punish yourself."

Yuan Hong, the censor of Youdu, came out and said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

The Minister of Rites came out and said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to sin against yourself."

The Minister of Hubu came out and said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

The Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs came out and said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

Liu Ke asked the people in the matter, their faces flushed with excitement: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict to sin against yourself."

"..."

In an instant, two-thirds of the civil servants came out in the court. Some of these people were Wei Yuan's party members; some were Wang Zhenwen's party members, and some were people who dared to be angry but dared not speak out before.

The civil servants and dignitaries who were not in attendance felt their scalps numb.

Except for the struggle for the country two hundred years ago, nothing like this has happened in Dafeng's history. The idea of ??loyalty to the emperor as a civil servant is deeply rooted in his heart, so how dare he confront the emperor head-on like this.

But today, it just happened.

Jinluan Palace was eerily quiet.

"You, you..."

Emperor Yuan Jing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, saw the color fade from his face little by little. At this moment, the Ninth Five Emperor felt great humiliation.

He, the king of a country, was forced by a group of ministers to issue an edict to commit crimes against himself.

The majesty of the majestic emperor was trampled on in this way?

The young Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty came to the throne. For 37 years, he has firmly controlled the court. Every day, the ministers fight to the death. He sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, as if he is watching a play.

He was so aloof, highlighting the humbleness of his ministers, like a monkey charmer watching a monkey show.

At this moment, these monkeys are uniting to cause chaos?

He pointed at the princes in the palace tremblingly, with trembling lips, and roared: "You guys, do you really think that I dare not deal with you? Come, come, drag these rebellious ministers down and give them sixty punishments!"

The sound echoed inside the palace, echoed outside the Jinluan Palace, and echoed in the ears of the ministers.

This is the anger of a king. When the emperor is angry, he will kill millions of people.

As if to oppose him, under such pressure, an even more incredible scene happened. Outside the palace, from Danbi to the officialdom, hundreds of officials knelt down at the same time and shouted:

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict to punish yourself."

The roar of sound echoed over the palace.

Emperor Yuan Jing could hardly believe his ears. For a moment, he suspected that he had seen an illusion.

He stood up slowly and looked outside the palace. From Danbi to the square, hundreds of officials knelt down and shouted: I am issuing an edict to sin...

"You, you..."

He pointed at the countless ministers inside and outside the palace, his fingers trembling, and roared:

"What do you mean, are you forcing me together? Do you still think of a king as a father, a treacherous minister and a traitor, and a treacherous minister and traitor!!"

The last four words were shouted hoarsely.

In 37 years, he has never been so out of control. The only times it happened were a few days ago, but that was just an act.

I have been playing monkey tricks for 37 years, and today, I was fooled by monkeys.

A surge of blood rushed into his heart, and Emperor Yuan Jing staggered.

"Yuan Xiong, you are the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Please tell these rebellious officials and traitors what they are doing."

Yuan Xiong, the censor of Zuodu, stiffened his neck, twisted a little, and looked at the princes. The princes were also looking at him, his eyes as cold as iron.

Gulu... Yuan Xiong swallowed his saliva, stepped out of the queue with difficulty, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, please don't be stubborn anymore, please, please issue an imperial edict... ..."

Thumb thump thump... Emperor Yuan Jing staggered back and fell down on the dragon chair, muttering: "Reverse, reverse..."

"I am the king of a country, how can I do anything wrong? You don't want me to issue an edict to sin against you..."

At this point, his face suddenly turned red, and he roared at the top of his lungs, his face trembling: "Don't even think about it!!!"

At this moment, sighs sounded from the hall, a clear light flashed, and an old Confucian scholar with messy hair and old robes appeared in the hall.

Yunlu Academy, Dean Zhao Shou!

Zhao Shou looked at Emperor Yuan Jing calmly: "Yuan Jing, please punish yourself."

Emperor Yuan Jing's face suddenly turned pale.
