Chapter 720: The opening (Part 2) _2

The officials looked over and saw that it was Yao Lin, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

As everyone knew, the person involved was a professional troll, a Mad Dog in the court, who would bite whoever he caught. At the same time, they were also the founders of the court.

As expected, it didn’t disappoint this time.

Yao Lin bowed and slightly lowered his head. “I would like to impeach first assistant Wang zhenwen for ordering the former minister of rites to collude with the demons and blow up sang Bo.”

There was a slight commotion in the hall.

The officials looked at each other with strange expressions. In the past few days, Wang zhenwen had led a group of officials to block the palace gates, and his reputation had soared. He could be said to be the vanguard who had “forced the Emperor to death.”

For him to be impeached at this time, it seemed … It was a matter of course.

However, the former minister of rites was indeed a member of the Royal faction, and it was hard to say if he was instructed by chief advisor Wang.

The inside story of the Sang Bo case was that the former minister of rites had colluded with the demons to blow up the Sang Bo. The monster race’s bargaining chip was the corpse of Princess henghui and Princess Pingyang.

Through this unfortunate couple, the crimes of the Liang gang were exposed.

In essence, it was a factional dispute, with the demons acting as external aid.

Did chief advisor Wang really know nothing about this? Regarding this, only they themselves knew whether to put a question mark in their hearts or to put a full stop to it.

Following that, Yao Lin revealed a few of Wang zhenwen’s Major Crimes, such as conniving his subordinates ‘corruption and accepting bribes from them . Putting the Sang Bo case aside, Luo’s list of charges was indeed set in stone.

How could a person with clean sleeves be the chief advisor?

Who would be willing to work for you?

His Majesty was planning to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys … Everyone’s heart trembled. Although the Confucians had the Dragon slaying technique, there was still an insurmountable gap between the ruler and his subjects.

Emperor Yuan jing was not a young Emperor. On the contrary, he had been overlooking the Imperial court for half a sixty-year cycle.

Chief advisor Wang raised his head and saw Emperor Yuan jing looking at him coldly. He no longer hesitated and said in a deep voice, ‘”‘1 beg for bones.”

Emperor yuanjing’s eyes flashed sharply. Just as he was about to speak, the

Imperial censor Zhang xingying stepped out and bowed, ‘

“Your Majesty, chief advisor Wang is corrupt and bribed. He is a disaster to the country and the people. You must not keep him.”

Censor Zhang was Wei Yuan’s man.

Emperor Yuan jing was silent for a long time. He glanced at Wei Yuan, who was meditating, and said, ” you’re being too serious, Chief Assistant. You’ve worked hard for the Empire, and you’ve made great contributions. I trust you. The balance created by Emperor Yuan jing had now become his biggest shackle.

If it was anyone else, they could be dismissed, but chief advisor Wang couldn’t. He was the only person in the court who could keep Wei Yuan in check.

Without him, even if Emperor yuanjing supported another party to rise to power, it would not be enough to fight against Wei Yuan.

In just 15 minutes, Emperor Yuan jing, Wei Yuan, and chief Wang Fu had already finished their first round of confrontation.

Emperor Yuan jing made a small profit, suppressed the officials ‘arrogance, and intimidated the Lords. Chief advisor Wang and Wei Yuan didn’t suffer any losses either, as the topic was brought back to the city-wide massacre case of King Huai.

Your Majesty, please punish the North vanquishing Prince severely. Convict him and give the world an explanation.

Finally, Wei Yuan stepped out.

The others immediately agreed, but this time, Emperor Yuan jing glanced around and found that a small number of people had not moved.

The corners of his mouth curled up without a trace. After all, interests were the most important thing in the Imperial court, and his own interests were above all else. Killing the chicken to warn the monkeys just now was already a good deal if he could scare those few people.

“Your Majesty, I feel that the case of Chuzhou should be considered at length.

We can’t convict King Huai blindly.”

The first voice of opposition appeared.

The speaker was the Imperial censor of the left, Yuan Xiong.

Emperor Yuan jing frowned and asked, “”Why do you say that, Minister Yuan?”

Yuan Xiong suddenly got excited and shouted, “”King Huai is His Majesty’s younger brother and the Prince of Da Feng. This matter concerns the face of the imperial family and his Majesty. How can we make a conclusion so easily?”

Shameless!

The Civil officials cursed in their hearts.

He had used the imperial examination fraud case to accuse Wei Yuan of offending the Grand Secretary of the eastern Pavilion. After the imperial examination, the Grand Secretary of the eastern Pavilion joined forces with Wei Yuan to impeach Yuan Xiong.

In the end, it was his Majesty who protected the banner and fined his salary for three months.

Now, as expected, he had become the emperor’s knife, helping him fight back against the entire civil officials.

“Your Majesty, what the Imperial censor said makes sense …”

At this moment, an old man holding a walking stick trembled as he stepped out of the ranks.

The old man’s hair was silvery white and he was wearing a red robe embroidered with a five-clawed Golden Dragon.

King Li!

The former Emperor’s younger brother, the uncle of Emperor Yuan jing and King Huai.

“Imperial uncle, why have you come? didn’t we say that you don’t need to go to court?” Emperor Yuan jing seemed to be surprised and ordered, ‘”Quickly, show Imperial uncle a seat.”

“If I didn’t come, the six hundred years of reputation of the imperial family of Da Feng would have been destroyed in the hands of an unfilial descendant like you.” The old man snorted.

Emperor Yuan jing lowered his head and didn’t say a word, as if he was admitting his mistake.

The old man turned the chair around and sat down facing the ministers. He snorted coldly, “”The great ceremony is the great ceremony of the people of the world, and even more so, the great ceremony of my imperial family.

“Emperor Gaozu found it difficult to start a business, but he swept away the corruption of the previous dynasty and established a new one. Emperor Wu Zong had killed his treacherous officials and cleansed the emperor’s side, how much blood and sweat had he paid?

“King Huai has committed a grave mistake, and he deserves to die. However, as long as I’m still alive, I won’t allow you to taint the reputation of my royal family.”

Blood rushed to Zheng xinghuai’s face, and he said in a deep voice, “Old Prince, Da Feng has been established for six hundred years, and there have been many

Kings who have confessed to their crimes …”

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by King Li, who shouted, ” a King is a King, and a subject is a subject. You’ve all read the books of the sages and are all from the Imperial College. Have you forgotten the teachings of Cheng ya-Sheng? ‘

Everyone felt their scalps go numb.

If Emperor Yuan jing had said this, the Lords would have been overjoyed and remonstrated with him. Stepping on the Emperor to make a name for himself was the best thing for all the scholars in the world.

But the one who said this was King Li. When King Li was young, he was extremely talented and was a famous scholar in the capital. In front of him, the Dukes could only be considered juniors.

With the status of the Prince and the Confucian sect seniors in front of him, he could take advantage of his seniority and no one could do anything. The radical faction’s arrogance was once again suppressed.

“Al, King Li, please think twice.”

Wei Yuan signed.

King Li straightened his back and looked at Wei Yuan from the corner of his eyes,

Hmph, this eunuch should have been a servant in the palace. If not for His Majesty’s discerning eyes and giving you a chance, would you have the glory you have today? ‘

Wei Yuan lowered his head, showing his weakness, and said, ”

“If King Li is thinking about the reputation of the imperial family, he should not cover up this matter for King Huai. Yesterday, the three great Confucians of Yun Lu Academy wanted to come to the capital to denounce His Majesty, but I stopped them.

“The three great Confucians said that the Imperial court can change the history books, but the history books of Yun Lu Academy are not under the control of the Imperial court. Today, the North vanquishing Prince had slaughtered

380000 people in the Chu Prefecture city. In the future, the scholars of the Yun Lu Academy would remember this matter firmly. It was passed down to later generations. His Majesty, on the other hand, is guilty of the same crime for shielding his brother. All of this will be recorded in the history books.”

Emperor Yuan jing’s expression changed.

The radical Dukes looked at each other.

This was truly something that scholars from Yun Lu Academy would do. Those scholars who walked the path of the Confucians were arrogant and conceited in their actions, but … How satisfying!

later generations only recognize the official history, ” King Li said lightly. who cares what the unofficial history of the Academy says? ‘

His words were meant for Emperor Yuan jing to hear. He wanted to tell his nephew, who wanted to cultivate Dao and also loved his reputation, not to be threatened by Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan said faintly, ” King Li has no misdeeds in his life. He’s also very Imowledgeable and is a role model for the royal family. He’s also a model scholar. Don’t let Yun Lu Academy take note of this matter and ruin your reputation.

King Li’s expression changed. He raised his trembling finger and pointed at

Wei Yuan, ” Wei Yuan, how dare you threaten me? are you trying to rebel? ”

“Since when did admonishments become threats?” chief advisor Wang said lightly.

“You … You guys …”

King Li trembled with anger, his chest heaving.

King Li had been studying since he was a child. Although he had the status of a Prince, he had always considered himself a scholar. He cared more about the words ” going down in history ” than ordinary noble generals.

It was a common habit of scholars.

Wei Yuan’s words made King Li deeply afraid. The official and unofficial history just now was just to comfort Emperor Yuan jing. Only scholars would know the authority of the Yun Lu Academy.

In the Imperial court, you come and I go, you see move and you see move.

Seeing that King Li was no longer speaking, Emperor Yuan jing knew that the ” enemy ” had neutralized his move. However, it didn’t matter. The next move was the key to his victory.

As he thought of this, he glanced at Duke Cao, who was in the group of nobles.

High Duke Cao understood tacitly and stepped out of the ranks, shouting, “”Your Majesty, I have something to say.”
