Chapter 1968 Xiang Zhuang’s sword dance, intended for His Majesty!
His Majesty Li Er sat on the throne, his face as sinking as water.
To him, just hitting and killing someone didn't matter at all. What kind of thing would a nobleman from the Tian family think of hitting and killing half of the farmers? The worst case scenario is to pay a sum of money and then atone for the crime with gold. But destroying the body after killing someone is a breach of morality, which makes His Majesty Li Er feel that the face of the Tian family has been damaged. The worst thing is that someone caught him and brought it to the main hall in front of the civil and military ministers. , a high-profile impeachment, this is intolerable...
Is it possible for him to protect King Huo while the imperial censors are digging out a lot of old stories?
If he continues to protect him, he will not be maintaining the royal family's face, but will personally shame the royal family's face and give the historian a handle to add his own guilt to the history books.
He works hard and sleeps day and night. What is his goal?
Isn’t that the unprecedented feat of suppressing the scandalous things he did in the Xuanwu Sect, clearing his reputation, surpassing the three emperors and five emperors, Qin, Emperor and Han, and achieving the grand hegemony of one emperor through the ages!
As an emperor, I am respectful and follow the rules and dare not make mistakes, lest I fail to leave a good reputation in the history books. Back then, I was so frightened that old Wei Zheng put me in my arms and suffocated me to death. What a shame. Walking on thin ice with trepidation?
As for you, the children of the royal family, you only care about living a happy life, enjoying whatever you want, and even doing whatever you want and committing lawlessness. Where do you put all my hard work and blood?
What a bastard!
He stared at Li Yuangui coldly and asked in a deep voice: "King Huo, what else can you say to defend yourself?"
When Li Yuangui heard this, he was completely confused.
Done! These censors and officials, who were not sons of man, finally made the emperor angry and wanted to clean themselves up...
Mother!
Is it easy for me?
The year before last, it was you who instigated the emperor to cancel the imperial edict of the feudal world, so that all the princes returned to Chang'an from their fiefdoms, which was like a prison. That is to say, the few princes granted by the late emperor still maintained vassal status, and there were not many of them!
As long as my fiefdom is eliminated today, I am afraid that I will never be able to go to the fiefdom and be a happy earth emperor in this life, but will have to spend the rest of my life in Chang'an...
"Your Majesty! Although the humble minister was ridiculous in the past, he has long since changed his past and changed his mind. When he came to Xuzhou, he was also wary and did not dare to act arbitrarily, for fear of dragging down the reputation of the royal family and damaging His Majesty's power... As for colluding with local places and coveting. Coveting the way of heaven is simply a crime! I am just studying the art of alchemy with a few alchemists and discussing the study of classics. How can I have ulterior motives and evil intentions? Your Majesty!”
Li Yuangui was already aware of the danger, and immediately knelt in the hall, crying secretly.
His Majesty Li Er was very irritated by his crying. He was angry and yelled: "You are a noble nobleman of the heavenly family, how can you cry like this? You have lost the face of the royal family! You are a prince who knows how to reward and punish. Clearly, capable of managing fiefdom matters That’s all. Why are you fooling around with those cynical hermits? As for the folk magicians, they are mostly people who are deceiving the public. How can there be a master who knows the way of heaven? It’s so stupid to not repent after what has happened!”
The emperor is almost the most selfish existence in the world.
I would rather teach the world to betray me than teach the world to betray me. This state is the truest portrayal of every qualified emperor. The only difference is that Cao Mengde is a treacherous hero among traitors. He has a mind that looks down on the world from all over the world. He dares to do and speak! As for His Majesty Li Er, he was bound by all kinds of fame and fortune, and was always shrouded in the shadow of the Xuanwu Sect. His back was not so strong, so he only did things, not words.
If King Huo were to commit suicide today, he would show magnanimity and be open-minded. However, since it involves damaging his reputation and possibly affecting his great cause of "Eternal Emperor", no one should think about it!
How could Li Yuangui be willing to accept punishment in such a confused way? What's more, the punishment he was about to face was something he couldn't accept no matter what, so he naturally tried his best to defend himself. But before he could speak again, he saw Liu Ji, the censor Zhongcheng, standing up again...
Li Yuangui wished he could pounce on this mad dog and bite him to death. Are you done with me?
How did Weng Weng offend you, so that he had to die like this?
But he obviously misunderstood. This time, Liu Ji's target has changed...
The imperial censor Zhongcheng, who was very fearful to all the Chinese, civil and military officials in the court, dusted off his sleeves and bowed: "Your Majesty, as you just said, all the alchemy techniques and immortality methods practiced by the alchemists in the world are all lies. Confusing and nonsense! Qin Shihuang unified the world and swept through the six kingdoms. His power was overwhelming and no one dared to disobey him. He spent his whole life pursuing the art of immortality, but in the end, didn’t he end up buried in the imperial mausoleum and return to the underworld? The so-called immortality is nothing more than an illusion. Your Majesty is a sage from all ages, with a candle shining for thousands of miles, a wise and powerful force. He should issue an edict and edict to the world. If anyone in the world wants to live forever, he will be killed! If anyone in the world makes false claims about immortality, he must be killed! If you do this, all evil will be frightened and all evil spirits will retreat. The monsters and monsters will disappear, and the world will be cleared up, and the gods and ghosts will never be seen again.”
Li Yuangui just wanted to jump up and curse. Talking about gods and ghosts and prophecies are taboos in the royal family. Liu Jie, you are not asking His Majesty to take away my title and reduce my fiefdom, but you want to kill me!
With a quick glance at the end of his eyes, he saw Shangshu Zuopushe Li Ji standing up and leaving the class to start: "Wei minister seconded the proposal!"
Tang Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, stood up and said: "I second the proposal!"
Li Daozong, the Minister of Civil Affairs, stood up and said: "Wei minister, I second the proposal!"
Xiao Yu stood up and said: "Wei Chen, second my opinion!"
Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and other military generals who had always played soy sauce also stood up one after another and said loudly: "Wei Chen, second the proposal!"
Changsun Wuji blinked and blinked, and he understood, quickly stood up, and said: "Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"
The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty stood up and stood in the hall one after another, bowed and saluted, and shouted: "I second my opinion, humble minister!"
Li Yuangui looked confused, his mouth wide enough to swallow a duck egg...
Everyone, aren’t you?
It’s not like this king has violated the rules of heaven, so why do you have to come against me?
I can’t bear the grand gesture you are making...
Not only was he confused, His Majesty Li Er on the throne was even more confused!
A pair of tiger eyes suddenly widened, looking at the excited and high-spirited ministers in disbelief, and his mind almost shut down.
What's going on?
The art of alchemy and the way to immortality, these methods of cultivating immortals handed down from ancient times, have been orthodoxly regarded as the source of disaster for the country since Qin Shihuang. Since the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, no matter Confucianism, Law, Military, Medicine, Yin and Yang and other schools of thought, all Treating it as a heresy, it is okay to study and ponder it in private, but it is not polite.
And as an emperor, being addicted to such techniques of cultivating immortals is a sign of ruin for the country.
Could it be that the Yin Jian of Great Qin could not alert the king?
Or is it that the king would rather give up this picturesque country and imitate Qin Shihuang, but pursue the illusory path of immortality and Buddha?
If this is the case, then you should pursue the path of immortality. Let’s change the emperor...
His Majesty Li Er then knew that he was being targeted by these ministers because he often summoned Tianzhu monks to the palace to refine elixirs.
Mother!
I thought these guys took the wrong medicine today, why are they clinging to King Huo and not letting go? It turns out that King Huo is just a raft, and the real target is him, the emperor!
This evil wind blew and blew, and it actually hit his head...
Is it possible that you guys are still going to cause trouble for me after I finally managed to survive Wei Zheng to death?
What is this called?
One Wei Zheng died, but there are still thousands of Wei Zhengs who will step forward?
You just can’t see us, right?
His Majesty Li Er was so angry that his face turned red. He banged the table, glared and yelled: "What are you doing? One or two of them are going to shake things up, right?" If it were another emperor, I am afraid it would have already happened. I feel guilty. With so many ministers joining forces, everyone has to be timid. If one of them makes a mistake, the government will be shaken and the country will be unstable, with endless troubles!
But how could His Majesty Li Er be afraid of this?
He fought his way from the second son of the Tang Dynasty to a reputation that was comparable to that of Prince Jiancheng. He also fought against the odds at the Xuanwu Gate, using the blood of his brothers to pave the way for his ascension to the throne and his unstoppable imperial legacy. , the most staunch!
The ministers can give advice, but if anyone is really disobedient, he will never mind killing someone again!
Besides, he is confident that as long as he is alive and breathing, these civil and military ministers will not dare!
It's just...who is behind the scenes linking up so many ministers with the intention of obstructing my path to immortality and alchemy?
