Chapter 841 The Regent(1/2)
A few days later, there were hundreds of powerful officials who were searched in Ningyang City. The people looked at the big boxes and moved out of the wealthy families, and they were guessing how many good things were contained in it.
People with high status and power can still stay at home after being convicted of the royal family and wait until they are convicted before they can see what to deal with them.
At that time, it will be determined whether it is beheaded or exiled, or if it is a lowly person, it is a slave to the officialdom.
The families with smaller official positions were also taken away, and the servants in the family were not spared. Those who did not sell themselves to help were only allowed to take away their clothes and get out immediately.
The ministers found that the situation was wrong, which was far beyond the means of rectifying the court's principles and clearing up party struggles.
This is like he doesn't want to do it anymore, killing everyone, and everyone is dispersed, and the country doesn't want it either.
Although Emperor Hongye is not a wise ruler, he was also the prince who had been studying Wang Shu since elementary school. He had never done such a stupid thing in his years as an emperor.
Why are you suddenly taking the wrong medicine now? You're crazy?
There were three factions in the party struggles in the court, one of which supported the dealer, and they were wiped out in this purge.
There are still two factions left now, one of which is relatively neutral and has been involved in the banker case. Most of them are wronged, but they have normal contacts on weekdays.
Those officials who usually have no choice but to fight for the businessman's face and neck when they go to court are fine. Now they are fine for the time being.
But it's okay now, it doesn't mean that it won't be their turn after other people are killed.
A man in the court, this national teacher is not with them, and he still hopes that he will let everyone go with great help?
Those who succeed never put their lives in the hands of others, and they must suppress the madman.
During the morning court, the prince, with a group of old ministers and censors, began to accuse the national master of wronged officials and killed innocent people. The public was full of grievances, and asked the emperor to dismiss the national master and investigate the matter.
Meng Zhongji stood in front of all officials, ignoring the complaints from all officials. He looked at the white marble bricks on the ground, as if there were flowers on it.
His casual attitude and dazzling fiery red hair all angered the civil and military officials of the court.
Not only civil officials, he also confiscated many military officers' homes. If he hadn't had to guard Ningyang City to handle the case, he might have gone to various counties to confiscate their homes.
"Your Majesty, Meng Zhongji is in trouble with the country and the people, and is abusing the loyal and kind. If he does not stop him, he will destroy the foundation of the Qingliang Kingdom!" The ministers kneeled down on the shore.
No matter which sect it was from, the appointment was made or not. At this time, most of the people were kneeling down and they also wanted to force Emperor Hongye to restrain Meng Zhongji.
This man acted too much, and the magical thing was that he had no friends among all officials, and none of the people in the court stood on his side.
It seems that a person is challenging the civil and military officials of the entire court with the emperor's favor.
Unless Emperor Hongye doesn't want the throne and the Qingliang Kingdom, how could he tolerate a person doing things randomly?
But this is impossible. Even if he has no intention of becoming an emperor, he can still let the prince succeed to the throne, rather than destroying his own world.
All officials believed that as long as everyone strongly opposed it, Emperor Hongye would have to make a statement.
On the high dragon throne, Emperor Hongye looked at the kneeling officials with expressionless face. Only the national teacher Meng Zhongji stood there, especially conspicuous.
He spoke, "I don't discuss this matter. The national teacher has done a good job in the past few days. All the dear ministers will report the court without a credit card."
The court suddenly became silent, and everyone was shocked, wondering if he had heard it wrong. Emperor Hongye actually praised the National Master for his good work?
"Your Majesty!" He had no idea what evil Emperor Hongye had been hit. The old ministers couldn't accept it and cried in grief and anger.
At this time, an old man who looked serious and had a cold face said loudly: "Your Majesty, rumors are everywhere among the people, saying that the national master is the son of Your Majesty. The rumors are endless, and the heavens are in chaos. Please investigate thoroughly."
He is the queen's father and must protect the crown prince. Even if the national teacher is the son of Emperor Hongye, his reputation is not right, he is not afraid that this person can steal the crown prince.
Instead, he was afraid that this person would be used by other princes, and he used the power of Jinlong Palace and the emperor's favor to attack the prince.
It is best to beat the national teacher to death under the heavy stick and never turn over again.
He then said: "Now the locust plague has passed six counties, and locusts can be seen outside Ningyang City. Even after Qingliang, there was a national teacher, and countless plagues broke through the dam and continued to cause disasters. This year, locust plagues appeared again, just like Emperor Tianjing's demon concubine was alive, and the Qingliang had ominous people, destroying our country's fortune."
The demon concubine is a taboo topic in front of Emperor Hongye. No one dares to mention it on weekdays, but now he has taken it out.
People have always been very strange. People give it to themselves, and they are also convinced by killing them. After losing them, they become affectionate and become a thorn in their hearts.
Every time I mention it, I always think of Fu Xiao when he was the prince, and I was unwilling and embarrassed.
After these emotions become love for a woman, they become more disguised and become angry as a matter of course.
Emperor Hongye felt a little painful in his head, which made him very upset. The temples on both sides of his forehead were beating in pain, and his murderous intent suddenly arose.
I have appointed a commander of Jinlong Palace, and you have opinions too!
He was about to get angry when a smile came from below, "You are so annoying."
The national master looked over and raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
"Bang!"
The heads of the dignified father-in-law and the elders of the three dynasties of Qingliang Kingdom exploded in the court, and the red and white blood stains sprayed around and splashed on the surrounding ministers.
The prince beside him was even more splashed on his face and was stunned on the spot.
The father-in-law's head was still on his neck, and there was something red in the blood stain, protruding out his bloody tentacles.
The body first knelt down before slamming to the ground.
The court was as quiet as death.
"Ah! There are assassins."
Suddenly someone screamed, and the sound was broken, sharp and harsh, penetrating the hall.
Suddenly, all the officials rolled around and fled, and the imperial guards rushed in.
The national guru hooked his fingers at them, and the guards' heads exploded one by one like fireworks, just like the father-in-law.
"ah!"
There was a timid minister who screamed tragically and was very scared.
The national master saw several ministers closest to the hall gate, who had already crossed the body of the guards and was about to escape to the outside of the hall, so he raised his hand at them and smiled and said, "Who told you to retreat?"
With his fingers slightly moved, the ministers' heads suddenly exploded and fell to the entrance of the hall.
The ministers who were about to rush to the door retreated all of them and squeezed to the wall.
I don't know who it is, but I'm still screaming in despair.
"Shh." The national master put his finger beside his mouth and reminded.
But there was one person who still screamed the loudest and couldn't calm down at all, feeling crazy.
The national master hooked his fingers, and the man became quiet in the banging sound. His eyes bounced on the minister beside him and rolled to the ground with blood.
Finally, the hall became completely quiet.
The ministers were so panicked like mice blocked by cats, huddled together.
However, the eunuchs standing in the corner did not move at all, keeping their bodies slightly bowed from beginning to end, looking down at the command.
Emperor Hongye sat on the dragon throne, his face suddenly looked extremely ugly, but he felt extremely headache, as if he was about to crack and hold it back.
He found that he could not speak, and his mouth seemed to be sewn up and he was unable to open it.
"Your Majesty, I'm serving you by my side." The old eunuch standing beside him walked forward and said to him respectfully.
Emperor Hongye sat calmly on the dragon throne, as if everything was under control, extremely calm. In fact, he could not do anything, and could not move, and he lost control of his body.
Looking at Meng Zhongji who was arrogant below, he knew that he had fallen.
The minister didn't know what method he used to, and could even blow up someone else's head when he was so far away, but the emperor didn't say anything at this time, and they calmed down a little.
"Meng Zhongji, do you want to rebel?" Someone shouted and his head exploded with a bang.
A general rushed out from behind the pillar and attacked from behind the national guru. Before his fists could touch him, his head was also blown up.
It was too close to the red nematode flew out and landed on the shoulders of the national teacher.
He grabbed the red nematode with his hands, held it as if nothing had happened, and said to everyone: "Is this little thing cute?"
"Everyone has it in their minds. As long as I want, they will mess up your brains and then come out."
"But what I like most is to let them explode, like fireworks, and it can scare people while being brilliant."
The red nematode in the national master's hand was soft and dead at this time, and was thrown to the ground by him.
He walked a few steps forward, then looked at the ministers sideways and said with a smile: "From today on, I am the Regent. Do you have any opinions?"
"This... this is not in accordance with the rules and there is no precedent." Someone from the Ministry of Rites actually said tremblingly.
The national master smiled and said, "Then can you do it? The Regent should have a grand ceremony as he comes to power."
The minister was frightened and quickly bowed: "I can do it. If you refer to the examples of the dynasty, there must be such etiquette."
"That's fine." The national master ordered, "I can't stand and help His Majesty deal with the court affairs."
The eunuch immediately ran away, as if he had already prepared it, and brought a faucet chair and placed it next to Emperor Hongye.
The national master walked up, sat on the dragon-head chair, and said to the ministers: "Dear friends, don't panic, you just have insects in your mind, everyone is the same. As long as you work hard for the country and the people, there is no difference between you and ordinary people."
"I will go to court tomorrow as usual. If someone doesn't come, you can try to walk out of Ningyang City."
At this time, a rapid footsteps came, and a large number of imperial guards came outside the hall gate. The imperial guards led them in, and everyone showed joy.
But unexpectedly, he came forward and knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "I have seen Your Majesty, the Regent. I am one step late, and the protection of the emperor is not good. Come and collect the crime."
"What is the crime of Commander Wu? The incident happened suddenly. I didn't expect that someone would seek death today." The national master said with a kind look.
