Chapter 261: Xiao Tong is hunted down
"Now that Xiao Tong is in the people, the main thing is that we get rid of him, and your son is the prince!" Xiao Hong said to Ruan Lingying.
"Really? Why doesn't Hongu believe it? Ruan Lingying said.
"Your Majesty's most admired son is the Seventh Prince." Xiao Hong said.
"Is the Seventh Prince really the best prince?" Ruan Lingying said.
"Really!" Xiao Hong said.
Xiao Hong remembered the past:
"I don't understand. Why do you rebel? Xiao Yan asked.
"Rebellion. Your Majesty, Weichen didn't rebel. The evidence you have is all Chen Qingzhi's framed Weichen! Xiao Hong cried.
"yes. I also suspect that Chen Qingzhi is framing you. However, there is no evidence! Xiao Yan said.
"No evidence? Your Majesty, Chen Qingzhi has been secretly in contact with Fan Jin, and he has bewitched the public! Fan Jin's "Theory of Divine Annihilation" is even very popular. It is completely the result of Chen Qingzhi's push! Xiao Hong said.
Xiao Yan thought to himself: How could it be? Although Chen Qingzhi has a good relationship with Fan Jin! But that's not the case!
"Wouldn't it? Chen Qingzhi is so bold! He's too much! Xiao Yan said angrily.
He thought to himself: What to do? If Chen Qingzhi really colluded with Fan Jin, I really need to bring him to justice!
Otherwise, I can't bend the law for personal gain!
"Your Majesty. Chen Qingzhi and Fan Zhen have long expressed dissatisfaction with His Majesty's advocacy of Taoism and Buddhism. They feel that His Majesty's move is really a disaster for the country and the people! Xiao Hong said.
"Really? They actually talked about the government in vain! I really didn't expect it! How could they be! Xiao Yan said.
He thought to himself: What to do? What should I do with Chen Qingzhi? He's so arrogant! I can't stand it anymore!
"Your Majesty, Fan Jin's "Theory of Divine Annihilation" has been widely circulated among the people. It may become a reason for the common people to oppose the gods and Buddhas! Xiao Hong said.
Xiao Hong began to tell about Fan Jin:
Fan Zhen saw that the people were giving apples to the Buddha statue in the temple.
"You don't have anything to eat! Why did you give the Buddha apples back? Fan Zhen asked.
"Buddha can bless us!" The people wept.
He's covered in dirt and he's skinny!
He thought to himself: I am still not religious enough. So, the Buddha doesn't bless me!
"Don't be stupid! It's useless! You're just starving. The Buddha will not manifest himself! Fan Zhen cried.
"If you slander the Buddha casually, there will be retribution!" And the people said.
"Why do you believe in something so weird? Do you have a lot of money? Don't you think it's okay to starve to death? Fan Zhen asked.
"Mr. Fan. When you say this, are you not afraid of retribution? Zhang San said.
"Don't be afraid. Because, in my opinion, all the gods and Buddhas are vain. Wang Chong of the Eastern Han Dynasty once said that the so-called gods and Buddhas are all nonsense. It was not God who created man, but man who created God! Fan Zhen said.
He thought to himself: The people of Li people trust the gods so much. Take out your own rations and go to the sacrifice. How can I keep them deceived?
Fan Zhen remembered Xiao Yan in the past:
"Your Majesty, if you continue to connive at the exploitation of the people by the nobles. Then, you are in the same league as the nobles. Fan Zhen scolded.
He thought to himself: Xiao Yan is no different from Xiao Luan and Xiao Baojuan. They were all protectors of the nobles. Nothing, the essential difference.
Xiao Yan thought to himself: Although Fan Zhen is disrespectful to me. However, he was a loyal servant. His talent is evident to all. I felt I could reuse him first. Then slowly hone his temperament.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with what you're saying. The scholars of the world do have a superior life. But here's the problem: they're warriors in the first place. The scholars need to have the pomp and circumstance of the scholars. You have not been an emperor. Naturally, you don't know the emperor's difficulties. The position of the emperor is not easy to sit. It can be said that it is like a pins and needles. Mr. Fan Zhen. Xiao Yan said angrily.
"So what? Your Majesty, since you have become the emperor. You need to ask for the people's lives. Instead of being like the princes of the imperial court, the corpse is vegetarian and has fun. They can spend a lot of money in the green building, but they can't help the victims. Fan Zhen scolded.
"Fan Jin. You're so extreme. I'm afraid the court won't be able to tolerate you. Hope you're doing it well. "God Annihilation", you can continue to promote. However, you can only be in Jiankang City now. I asked Shen Yue if there were any other vacancies. I can arrange it for you, anyway, there are a lot of idle jobs......" Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Nope. Your Majesty. Wechen didn't want to continue in Jiankang City. Wechen hopes to return to his hometown. That's what Wechen likes. Fan Zhen cried.
"It's up to you. I want you to serve the court. Instead, continue to spread rumors among the people. I'm saving you. If you continue like this, you will be killed. I'm afraid the warriors have wanted to kill you for a long time. Xiao Yan scolded.
"Your Majesty, Wechen is willing. What if you die. It's better than eating and waiting for death in Jiankang City. Wechen won't give in. Fan Zhen scolded.
"Okay. Then you tell me, what do you want? What is your statecraft? Except for the "Theory of Divine Annihilation". Xiao Yan asked curiously.
He thought to himself: I really want to hear Fan Jin's high opinions. Fan Zhen has the talent of the world, but it is a pity that he is wild, so he has no achievements until today.
"Your Majesty, Weichen hopes that all the people in the world can live and work in peace and contentment. There are no more scholars and moths in the world. All the people of the world can live happily. Fan Zhen said with a smile.
Xiao Yan smiled: "I think so too. However, this did not happen overnight. So, I hope you can understand that you need to take your time. ”
"Nope. Your Majesty. You want me to give up. That's why I deliberately prevaricated me. Actually, you want me to give up the struggle. Fan said angrily.
"If you see through it, you can't say it. Fan Jin, you lack such ability. Otherwise, your career will already be smooth. It's not like it's so bumpy. Do you know? Xiao Yan said angrily.
"Your Majesty. Wechen doesn't want to be in a high position. Because, today's court is too dirty. There is no one who can not be polluted. Therefore, Wechen would rather give up the opportunity and continue to struggle. Fan said angrily.
Xiao Yan scolded: "Fan Jin." You don't have to be embarrassed. There is a limit to my patience. I can't go on. ”
"Really? Your Majesty, if you think that Weichen is deviant. You can kill Wechen now. Anyway, I died only for the truth. Don't live for anything else. Fan Zhen said angrily.
"Really? No. If I kill you now. Isn't it the fulfillment of your good name? Do you want future generations to praise your loyalty and scold me as a faint king? I don't. Xiao Yan scolded.
Fan Zhen smiled: "Then it's up to Your Majesty." ”
