Chapter 278 Bet (Part 1)
"How about we make a bet?"
Following these words, all the ministers looked at Fang Jun strangely. This is above the imperial court. What kind of tricks are you planning to do?
Fang Xuanling touched her forehead with her hands and looked shameless...
His Majesty Li Er's eyes were glaring. He thought he knew Fang Jun's character. He seemed reckless and impulsive, but in fact, behind every move, there was sufficient planning and strong confidence. He would not be sure if he did not fight easily. battle.
Zheng Boling was also stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "A certain person has been familiar with scriptures since childhood, upright and upright, and has never gambled. I'm sorry, Minister of Housing."
The overall situation has been decided, and someone who seeks benevolence and gets benevolence will get it exactly where he wants it. Why do you want to get angry with a yellow-mouthed brat like you and add variables?
However, Fang Jun was not disappointed. He took a deep look at Zheng Boling, turned around and saluted His Majesty Li Er, and said loudly: "Your Majesty Fang Jun, I want to impeach Zheng Boling, the minister of Taichang Temple. The emperor's slander is really malicious and evil. Where does the law of the Tang Dynasty stand? Ming Jian, the heads of these rebellious ministers and traitors who have brought disaster to the country and the people are shown to the public, and the laws of the country are rectified. The Zheng family is full, and all the males over ten years old within the three clans are beheaded, and those under ten years old are sent to Lingnan; The female family members over 10 years old were brought into the Jiaofang Bureau, and those under the age of ten were sold into slavery; all their property and houses were seized and confiscated, making their family slaves and prostitutes for generations to serve as a warning to others!”
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall could hear it, and everyone looked at Fang Jun in disbelief.
This is too poisonous!
It's simply worse than ransacking your home!
But, what Fang Jun said really makes some sense...
This kind of thing about God punishing you is just a popular rumor, and the ignorant people believe it without any doubt. But for the Gong Gong princes in the court, they didn't believe much. Because they know that the so-called "Emperor is the son of the Emperor of Heaven" is just a high-sounding slogan, which is pure nonsense...
Today, His Majesty Li Er is the emperor. He is the son of the Emperor of Heaven, or the Son of Heaven for short.
Tomorrow, Wang San will be replaced as the emperor, but he will still be the son of the Emperor of Heaven, and his abbreviation will still be the Son of Heaven...
Since everyone can be the emperor, it means that no one is the emperor. How can the emperor die from exhaustion after giving birth to so many sons?
Since he is not the emperor, then such nonsense as "a sign from heaven" is just talk.
Fang Jun is now claiming that Zheng Boling and others have no real evidence. According to the "Zhenguan Law", it is really a false accusation. If you falsely accuse others, you will only get a scolding, which is no big deal; but if you falsely accuse the emperor, it will be a big deal. The crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan is really not an exaggeration...
Fang Jun is admonishing Your Majesty. Instead of causing chaos throughout the country, it is better to kill chickens to scare monkeys. Anyway, just kill a chicken first to see if the monkeys can be frightened. If the monkeys are frightened, everyone will be happy. If they can't be frightened, they will be killed sooner or later. , what’s the difference between killing early and killing later?
But in this way, the "chicken" of Laiyang Zheng's family is a bit pitiful.
If this "chicken" is killed, the monkeys will be frightened...
That's not pitiful, it's a perfect tragedy...
Zheng Boling could no longer remain calm, and the calmness that she had maintained just now was completely torn to pieces by Fang Jun. She glared angrily and said, "Fang Jun, how can you be so vicious? How...are you going to make a bet?"
He finally saw that Fang Jun was really bad. His Majesty would definitely agree to his advice, and the Zheng family in Laiyang would be completely destroyed in the hands of Zheng Boling, and he would become the Zheng family in Laiyang. The eternal sinner!
Don't you want to bet?
A certain companion is...
Fang Jun laughed and glanced at His Majesty Li Er. Seeing the emperor's uncertain expression, he was startled. Could he be really moved by this proposal?
What a girl!
Don't! It’s not that he feels sorry for Laiyang’s Zheng family, he feels sorry for his own reputation!
If His Majesty Li Er really adopts this advice, then the history books of the future market will definitely read: "The emperor was stupid and was deceived by the traitor Fang Jun. He massacred all the Zheng family in Laiyang. His crimes were so heinous that it is difficult to record them. He is actually one of the top ten traitors in history." The first..."
Even if you die, you will have to be stabbed in the spine. Maybe one day someone will drag you out of the coffin and whip the corpse...
Fang Jun shuddered all over and said quickly: "I want you to bet that the omen coming from the sky has nothing to do with your Majesty! Do you dare?"
"Haha, why don't you dare? I just don't know how the chamber servant wants to gamble?" Zheng Boling was determined.
Just as he could not provide evidence to prove the emperor's "guilt", others could not provide evidence to prove the emperor's "innocence"!
As Fang Jun himself said, is it possible to send someone to heaven to ask?
Even if I find out, he can't come back...
Fang Jun was confident and said: "Since you say that the omen from heaven is due to your Majesty's misconduct, do you mean that your Majesty is guilty and needs to issue an edict to sin in order to get God's forgiveness and rain?"
Zheng Boling was very calm. After thinking about it for a while, he didn't find any trap in Fang Jun's words, so he said: "Not bad."
Fang Jun nodded: "So, do you think so: If it rains without Your Majesty issuing an edict to punish yourself, it means that the drought is actually none of Your Majesty's business?"
When His Majesty Li Er heard this, his eyes lit up, and his roommates Xuanling, Ma Zhou and others who had no trace of their presence changed their looks and felt secretly happy.
Good idea!
Zheng Boling sneered, could I be fooled by a trap of this level?
How naive...
He said with emotion: "God has a good nature, and this severe drought is just a warning from God to the world, asking your Majesty to repent of his past mistakes, work diligently and love the people. However, if Your Majesty insists on refusing to admit his mistakes and issues an edict to sin against himself, God will not It will starve all the people to death. After a period of drought, there will still be rain!”
How dare he admit Fang Jun's words? If His Majesty is unable to issue the edict of sin, no matter how severe the drought is, he will not be able to endure it until the end of time. It will eventually rain. As long as it rains, doesn't it prove that God did not blame the emperor for the drought?
I can't say that at that time, your majesty can completely blame him. It's because there is a traitor in the court, and God will send a severe drought!
Who is the traitor?
Haha, who else could it be besides me, Zheng Boling?
This Fang Jun is so cunning and cunning at a young age, he is really not a son of a man!
Although His Majesty Li Er knew that Zheng Boling might not be fooled, he still couldn't hide his disappointment...
Fang Jun was not at all as embarrassed as having his scheme revealed. He just sighed slightly disappointedly in his heart. People are old and cunning, and the old thing is really too weird...
Then he smiled and said: "Zheng Shaoqing is really wise... Anyway, you are right anyway. Whether it rains or not, I am blocked by your words. How can there be such a reason?"
Zheng Boling pondered for a moment and said: "In any case, if Your Majesty does not issue an edict to punish yourself, there will be no rain in the short term."
"Bitter!"
Fang Jun sneered: "You are bullying me for not studying enough? Short-term, near-term, probably, maybe... Zheng Boling, you use such specious words to shamelessly accuse His Majesty. Don't you think you are shameless and hateful? Your Majesty, minister Impeaching Taichang Temple Minister Zheng Boling, this person..."
"Wait!"
Zheng Boling was sweating profusely and quickly stopped Fang Jun. He had seen all His Majesty Li Er's movements just now. If His Majesty took the weight and became determined, then the Zheng family in Laiyang would be in ruins...< br>
"Master Fang, what do you think should be done?"
I have no choice but to take a step back...
Fang Jun raised a finger and said slowly: "Within seven days, there will be rain from the sky. When the time comes, please take back Zheng Shaoqing's words that falsely accuse His Majesty!"
"Within seven days?"
Zheng Boling was slightly startled, and then he remembered that the famous scholars from Si Tiantai's family had said that there would be no rain within a month, and he felt relieved again.
At such a young age, can you compare to those great scholars from Si Tiantai who observe the climate all year round?
Then he turned to His Majesty Li Er and saluted: "I wonder what your Majesty's intention is?"
His Majesty Li Er was completely confused. Could it be that Fang Jun still had the ability to discern the secrets of heaven and tell when it would rain?
Seeing His Majesty Li Er's hesitation, Fang Jun quickly said: "I promise, if it doesn't rain, your Majesty will do whatever you want!"
"Okay!" His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth. He still couldn't make up his mind to see all these aristocratic families eradicated with thunderous tactics. It was not bad to get a chance of relief at this moment. Even if there was no rain in seven days, the worst possible outcome would still be death!
As an emperor, holding the universe in his hand, who is he afraid of?
Zheng Boling said calmly: "That's the case, just agree to it!"
"Wait a minute!" Fang Jun stopped him and said displeasedly: "Is it true that Zheng Shaoqing has never gambled? Doesn't he even know that gambling requires stakes?" (End of Chapter)
