Chapter 266: Too much deception
At this time, several old men were still locked up in Shangshutai, so it was naturally impossible for them to go to court, otherwise once they said a few words nonsense, the situation would become extremely unstable.
Even if he has been on the throne for more than half a year, he will become unstable.
The young Son of Heaven took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Corruption and perversion of the law is shallow virtue, how can shallow virtue assist the country?" β
Xue Zhao took a deep breath, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, Shen Xiang and Yan Sikong are both auxiliary ministers of the previous emperor's will, no matter what, they can't rely on a few words from the Grand Governor to dismiss their position as auxiliary ministers, this is too child's play." β
The Son of Heaven frowned.
"What does Xue Lang mean?"
Xue Zhao kowtowed deeply.
"First summon a few prime ministers into the Weiyang Palace, and then hand them over to the Three Law Divisions for verification, and then discuss them in the court before they can be dismissed from the position of auxiliary ministers."
Every sentence of Xue Zhao's words is reasonable, and it is also the treatment that the auxiliary minister should have, but in the ears of the Emperor of Yuan Zhao, it is harsh, the fourteen-year-old Son of Heaven glanced at Xue Zhao coldly, "Ho Ho" sneered: "Xue Langzhong means that I have no right to dismiss the government?" β
"Of course, Your Majesty has the right to govern in person."
Xue Zhao knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head: "But even if Your Majesty is in charge of the government, several prime ministers can't say that it will be gone without explanation, the state has national laws, if Your Majesty indulges in acting and does not look at the ministers in the slightest, who else will be willing to contribute to the heavenly family in the future?" β
He prostrated deeply.
"Your Majesty is gifted and intelligent, and if you have this move today, you are either bewitched by others or you are secretly secret."
Xue Zhao gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, please think twice, no matter what happens, you can't hide it blindly, the minister heard that several Zaifu entered the palace overnight last night, and they never came out again......"
As soon as he said this, the whole court was in an uproar.
At this time, in the Weiyang Palace, everyone was very curious about where a few Zaifu had gone, and now that Xue Zhao said this, they knew that a few people entered the palace last night, and entered the palace last night, and today the Son of Heaven is going to leave the prime minister, and there must be something big about it!
Yuan Zhao Tianzi finally couldn't hold it back, and his face was full of anger.
Shen Kuan and the others had already threatened to say it last night, and they were already spreading this matter outside the palace, so it was obvious that Xue Zhao, a student of Shen Kuan, knew the cause and effect of this, and when he said this, it was clearly a threat to the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven shouted angrily: "Shen Kuan, Yan Shouzhuo and others entered the palace last night, intending to plot misdeeds and commit chaos, I originally wanted to give them a step, and also give the scholars a step down, so I quit the prime minister in the name of greed for money, Xue Zhao, do you want your teacher to copy all over the house!" β
Xue Langzhong gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not the teacher, it's Your Majesty's ......."
Scholars are a very strange group, they are intrigued with each other, classmates and fellow colleagues can calculate each other, step on other people's corpses and climb up, but sometimes they are extremely united, for example, this kind of master-apprentice relationship in officialdom is an unbreakable alliance relationship, because the two sides will influence each other, one will prosper and one will lose.
If Shen Kuan is dismissed as prime minister or even questioned for his crimes, these former protΓ©gΓ©s of his will either stop moving forward and demote their officials, or they will be implicated in the dismissal of officials or even questioned together.
Take the antique calligraphy and paintings that Shen Kuan has received over the years, many of them were given by Xue Zhao, so he must stand up at this time.
And as long as he says the first sentence, he must grit his teeth and finish it and persevere to the end, otherwise it will at least be the end of exile!
Before he finished his sentence, Yuan Zhao Tianzi was furious and shouted: "You are a small etiquette man, you dare to make a big statement on the Golden Palace, left and right, take him down and lock him up!" β
The people on duty near Weiyang Palace are all internal guards, these people are not under the constraints of the imperial court, but the private soldiers of the Son of Heaven, and when they heard this, they immediately stepped forward and escorted Xue Zhao down.
Yuan Zhao Tianzi stood up from the dragon chair and looked at the civil and military officials under the imperial steps, each of whom held the court wat in his hand and was silent.
Obviously, few of these people supported the emperor's resignation for no reason.
After looking at it for a long time, the Son of Heaven had to speak slowly.
"Zhuqing, today's matter of the Metropolitan Governor's letter to participate in the performance, I will send someone to investigate it in detail, and then discuss it after the investigation is understood, there is nothing else, let's stop the court today."
At this time, naturally no one dared to do much more, and the civil and military officials knelt down respectfully, and once again shouted long live.
The young Yuan Zhao Tianzi stood up from the dragon chair and turned away without looking back.
Back in the apse, the Son of Heaven was furious.
The ornaments on the royal table were thrown to the ground by him and shattered.
His face was slightly distorted.
"None of these people are of the same mind as me!"
"I am the emperor and the Son of Heaven!"
Xiao Zheng stood beside the Son of Heaven with his hands down, bowed his head and said: "Those civil officials always want to abide by the rules, although sometimes they are very hateful, but they are indispensable in taking care of the world, and there are some things that only they can do." β
"There's no way they're going to let me go!"
The Son of Heaven's face was flushed, and he said angrily: "If this continues, I will have to let those old guys go, and then they will do whatever they want!" β
After the Son of Heaven sent a fire, he discussed some specific countermeasures with Xiao Zheng, such as prohibiting the people of the Seed Family and the Ye Family from having any contact with the palace, prohibiting anyone from entering and leaving the inner palace, and so on......
And then there is, you can ...... Try to contact Shen Kuan and others.
After the two of them said these things, it was almost noon, and when Xiao Zheng was about to deal with the several prime ministers in Shangshutai, his godson Xiao Huai rushed in, knelt directly on the ground, and threw himself on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Godfather......"
The Son of Heaven sat on the dragon chair and ignored him.
Xiao Zheng helped Xiao Huai up, frowned and asked, "In front of Your Majesty, there are so no rules, what happened?" β
Xiao Huai was out of breath and said in a trembling voice: "Godfather, something is wrong......
"There are Tai students in the Guozi Prison, who are talking bad about the palace, and at this time, there are already dozens of Tai students, who are at the gate of the Guozi Prison, saying...... Say ......"
"What ...... say"
Xiao Huai's voice trembled, and he lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty...... The palace hid the nobles of the former emperor, and then... Several prime ministers entered the palace to advise, and were given ...... by His Majesty"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he also knew it in his heart.
He looked back behind him, and the young Son of Heaven was already pale, gritting his teeth.
"Let Qianniuwei and Yulinwei arrest people, one by one, arrest all these rumor-mongers, throw them into Jingzhao Mansion, and ask for the crime and kill them!"
The Son of Heaven's eyes were red.
"And Shen Kuan's strict clumsiness these old men, they were all pulled out by me to kill, and I directly asked Hou Jingde to drive the left camp of the forbidden army into the capital, and see who dares to say that I am not half a sentence!"
"Your Majesty is angry."
Xiao Zheng knelt on the ground and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, it's not difficult to kill people, there are hundreds of people in the capital, it's easy for Your Majesty to kill anyone, the problem is how to end up after killing someone." β
"Zai Fu can be killed, but he can't be killed for no reason, otherwise the Great Jin Dynasty will be in chaos in the future, Your Majesty, you are too young, I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress the capital......"
The Son of Heaven gritted his teeth.
"Can you just watch them smear me?"
Xiao Zheng was silent for a while, and finally lowered his head.
"Let's drag it out for now."
He looked south and smiled wryly.
"The letter sent out by the slave maid in six hundred miles should be delivered to Hou Ye Li in a few days."
"If he is willing to return to Beijing, no one will be able to move Your Majesty......"
