Humane Yongchang

"You can tell, what are you talking about?"

The deep and powerful roar of a tiger echoed repeatedly in the empty hall.

The three of His Royal Highnesses felt a sense of insignificance spontaneously in their hearts amidst the echoes.

Li Si and Meng Yi silently lowered their heads...

Dudu Han Fei didn't change his face, and said clearly and forcefully, "I naturally know what I'm talking about..."

"Be careful with what you say!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Si interrupted him and said righteously: "Anyone can come to ask His Majesty for this grace, I Li Si can, he Meng Yi can, only you Han Fei can't."

"Because you, Han Fei, are my right minister, the leader of legalists in this world, and the banner of the rule of law in the current dynasty!"

"Not only can you not come to ask for this grace, but you also have to cut off the relationship with those people outside the palace who are in collusion and collusion, and you are at odds with each other!"

"Only in this way can you Han Fei live up to His Majesty's grace, and your Legalist family live up to His Majesty's respect!"

What is a master who pretends to be confused?

Liz is!

He clearly knew Han Fei's purpose for asking for this grace better than anyone else, but he forcibly distorted it into something else.

And at first glance, every sentence reprimanded, but in essence, every sentence is a point, and every sentence is a defense.

Invisibly, he also agreed with Chen Sheng, and expressed what he couldn't say on behalf of Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng really remained silent, acquiescing to Li Si's statement.

After pondering for a while, Han Fei suddenly said seriously, "I have something important to do, and I want to play it privately, please Your Majesty!"

Chen Sheng vaguely guessed what he was going to say, nodded and said: "Quick!"

Li Si and Meng Yi had no choice but to hold hands together and said: "The old minister (the humble minister) will leave!"

The two bowed and exited the hall.

"Boom."

Two burly royal guards in full armor slowly closed the heavy palace door.

As soon as the palace door was closed, Li Si and Meng Yi raised their sleeves and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads at the same time, and let out a long breath of relief.

In the end, Li Si put on a smiling face, and took the initiative to bow to Meng Yi and said: "Zhong Shu Ling, Mr. Meng, I just had to take an expedient measure. Please forgive me, Mr. Meng."

Of course Meng Yi didn't want to forgive the old fox, but the old fox had already put down his old face and apologized to him in public, what else could he say?
He could only reluctantly reply: "Mr. Li has said it before, and I dare not be an official. It's just that the next time something like this happens, Mr. Li rushes down to the official alone. Don't bring our royal guards with you." Good? I have three thousand brothers Paoze, the guards of the royal court, who are dedicated to the king and defend the king, not afraid of life and death, not avoiding water and fire, with a fistful heart that can show the sun and the moon, and cannot tolerate half a slander!"

Li Si said "no" in his heart when he heard it halfway, and glanced to the left and right from the corner of his eye, the guards of the royal court around him were all staring at him.

……

in the hall.

Chen Sheng stepped down from the hall, walked up to Han Fei, and shouted angrily, "What kind of ecstasy soup did you drink? Or is someone threatening you? Tell me a name, and I'll order someone to chop off his head!" "

Han Fei's betrayal was indeed beyond his expectations.

And this sudden change is indeed fatal.

With Han Fei's identity and status, if even he is underestimated, then the rule of law of a big man is a fart!
"The king was joking."

Han Fei smiled, and the smile was indescribably peaceful: "The subordinate is also my right-hand man after all, who would dare to have such a heinous courage to hold the subordinate?"

"Don't tell me nonsense!"

Chen Sheng didn't accept his tricks: "If you don't speak clearly today, I will order people to investigate Guanlan Pavilion thoroughly, and all suspicious persons will be arrested and sent to prison!"

Han Fei pondered for a moment, then sighed softly: "I have heard that, if you pursue the law to the extreme, you will easily lose your humanity. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

When Chen Sheng heard the words, he felt familiar with them, and thought carefully in his heart, wasn't this the exact words he said to Li Si when he decided to let hundreds of families into Jixia Academy in the past?

He laughed angrily: "Are you playing the trick of 'attacking the shield with the spear of the son' with me?"

Han Fei: "So this sentence came from the mouth of the king? No wonder the more I think about it, the more I feel that my words are more righteous!"

Chen Sheng: "Don't tell me, it's because of this sentence that you have the idea of ​​'hold it up high, put it down gently'?"

Facing Chen Sheng calmly, Han Fei said, "Your Majesty, 'the prince breaks the law and the common people commit the same crime' is the highest pursuit of my Legalists."

"However, Your Majesty is not my Fajia disciple, so this should not be your pursuit."

"If someone wants to die for the rule of law, his subordinates can go, and thousands of legalists can go!"

"Your Majesty must not go!"

"It's not that the subordinates think that the life of the king is more noble than the life of my Fajia disciples."

"It's the responsibility of the king, which is different from us. Everyone goes their own way and performs their own duties!"

"We legalists, if we can dedicate our lives to create a precedent for the rule of law, we will get what we want, and we will be lucky for three lives!"

"And the king shoulders the responsibility of my country, the country, and the country, but sacrifices the livelihood of the people, the safety of the country, and martyrs for the rule of law. It seems that he is not a wise king, but he is actually a coward who sacrifices his roots and chases the last!"

He spoke very slowly, and his tone was not fierce, but there was a fearless spirit in his calmness that was not afraid of life and death!
Chen Sheng looked at him in a daze, and after a while he smiled and praised: "Yes, you, I still remember that when I first met you, your mind was full of how to promote the essence of your Legalism, except for your Legalism. Jingyi, you can't see anything else, but now you can stand on a higher level, and look down at the essence of hundreds of schools fairly..."

Han Fei's current level of thought was very close to him.

What is Chen Sheng's family?

Although he single-handedly supported Legalism and Confucianism, and developed farming, military, and Mohist schools...

But in fact, he is nothing.

If you insist on saying yes, it is a pragmatist!
A pragmatist who uses whatever is useful.

Han Fei also replied with a smile: "It's all thanks to the king's advice, otherwise the subject will still be the old toad who sits in the well and watches the sky."

"so……"

The smile on Chen Sheng's face gradually disappeared, and he said calmly: "You are planning to let me come forward to amnesty the world first, and then you judicial officials will come forward to forcibly execute these criminals together. After the matter is over, I will investigate your violation of power. , Committing the felony of causing chaos and disregarding human life, fulfilling your highest ideal of sacrificing the law with your body?"

Han Fei was stunned, speechless... He was not surprised that Chen Sheng could see through their little tricks. It would be a strange thing if Chen Sheng, a talented and bold founding emperor, couldn't even see through this little trick!

He was surprised that Chen Sheng would turn this matter on the table and talk about it!

There are things that can be done.

But we can't talk about it.

Since Chen Sheng has brought this matter to the table, it means that he is not going to do this...

After a while, Han Fei smiled wryly and said, "My lord, why bother? You are going to chase after the Three Emperors, the Dechao Five Emperors, and one emperor through the ages. Why let these scum full of evil people dirty your hands?"

Chen Shengfeng said calmly: "If this matter is placed in my hands, it will be dirty hands at most, but if it falls on your shoulders, it will kill off children and grandchildren and leave a bad reputation forever!"

Han Fei said loudly: "If you can sacrifice your body to the Dharma, what do you have to fear..."

Chen Sheng rudely interrupted his argument: "But I don't want to!"

Han Fei still opened his mouth, but lost his voice...

Chen Sheng looked at him: "You guys are so smart in your calculations, why did you forget to do the calculations, would I be willing, would I be willing, what would I think?"

"What? In your eyes, I, Chen Sheng, are just a stone who only knows the pros and cons of gains and losses? As long as I guide the situation to the advantage, I will honestly follow your ideas?"

Han Fei said quickly, "I dare not!"

"Don't you dare?"

Chen Sheng sneered and said, "You have arranged me clearly, so why not dare?"

Han Fei couldn't answer, and didn't dare to answer.

Chen Sheng didn't make things difficult for him any more, turned around and dragged the chair that Meng Yi usually sat on, and sat down opposite Han Fei, and said calmly, "Why don't you let me know, I actually thought about raising my hand, Leaving these scumbags alive for the time being, even if they are all sent to the major mines to dig for us to dig to death, it will still give me some waste heat, won't it?"

It is easy to kill these people, but it is too difficult to clean up the mess.

The iron-blooded Qin Dynasty died because of He II, Chen Sheng has not forgotten.

"Why, these scumbags, I don't want to give myself a way to survive..."

Chen Sheng closed his eyes, and his voice became calmer: "I called all the literate visitors, guards, and palace people in the palace to come here, and read through these [-] crimes, trying to find some crimes that are not worthy of death, as an amnesty. The origin of the world..."

Han Fei heard what he meant, and asked incredulously, "Not even one?"

Chen Sheng took a deep breath: "Not one!"

The crimes committed in this area of ​​the hall were a lesson for him.

A vivid, vivid, and profound course on the dark side of human nature!

As for how deep it is... Let's put it this way, the most frequent and least worth mentioning crime among these crimes is the word 'human sacrifice'.

It is so frequent, just like the words "messing up with men and women" on the anti-corruption report, it has almost become a standard feature of every crime.

It's not worth mentioning, after reading too many of these charges, if this is the only charge on the list, you still think that this person...he seems to be not bad?
Some people may say that this is "custom".

But he, Chen Sheng, is the master of Kyushu, why should he adapt to the evil customs of a group of scum?

What qualifications do these people have to let him distort his three views to adapt to them?

Han Fei asked subconsciously: "How could this be? Could it be that there is something tricky about these crimes?"

Chen Shenglue pondered for a while: "Is there a possibility that these crimes are only the most difficult part, and those not difficult crimes, Chen Feng still has them in his hands and did not send them back to the capital?"

Han Fei: ...

He took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, you might as well think about the advice of your subordinates again. If you know what you can't do, you are not a wise king!"

Chen Sheng replied lightly: "There is no need to think about it, I know that you all want to share the pressure for me."

"The same goes for Chen Feng. The purpose of engaging in such a big battle is to give me a justifiable opportunity to amnesty the world."

"By the way, you can also beat those people with lofty ideals outside the palace. Everyone is happy and harmonious... Isn't it great?"

"But these scumbags have been doing evil for half their lives, and this time they finally fell into my hands."

"If you want me to just raise my hand like this, and spare them their lives... I can't help it!"

"If I can't even pass my own level, then don't mention the eternal emperor!"

"That's poking my Chen Sheng's back!"

After a pause, he continued: "And you, your cognition has grown enough, but your heart is not as calm as before, and you are a little eager for quick success..."

"I just want to ask you, if the spirit of the rule of law of my great man takes root and sprouts in the midst of conspiracy and calculation, can it still grow into a towering tree?"

"The heart is right, the way is right, and the technique is right, so that the road will become more magnanimous and spacious!"

Han Fei opened his mouth, but couldn't find any rebuttal.

He still sticks to his guns.

But he agrees with Chen Sheng's comments on him.

Chen Sheng didn't care about him anymore, he got up and shouted: "Meng Yi!"

Meng Yi, who was waiting for the order outside the hall, hurriedly opened the door of the hall, stepped inside quickly, and said with his hands together: "My minister is here."

Chen Sheng: "The decree was drafted and passed on to Chen Feng, saying that I have read the many crimes he sent back. If the evidence is convincing and the review is correct, the law shall be enforced immediately, the canonical punishment shall be issued, and the order shall be restored. All courts shall hang my king's flag, If I come here in person, anyone who disturbs the court will be punished with the same crime!"

The voice came out of the Yanqing Palace, and all the guests waiting outside the palace, royal guards, and palace people all had scalp numbness and body tremors like electric shocks.

This is 5 million people!
In many counties in Kyushu, the population of the city is less than [-].

If 5 people are executed at one time, isn't that equivalent to massacring five cities?

The emotion of horror, like a biting north wind, fixed everyone outside the hall in place.

But soon, the horrified emotion was replaced by an even higher and more intense emotion!

Everyone outside the hall unconsciously clenched their fists tightly, and couldn't help but want to shout, want to roar, and goosebumps ran up their spines and scalps one after another.

They have all seen the crimes in the temple.

Compared with Han Fei, Li Si, Meng Yi and others, the condescending perspective is different.

From a head-up perspective, they watched people who were almost the same as them, being martyred alive, their hearts gouged out, their livers gouged out, their skins were skinned...

They hurt their own kind.

But dare not speak out.

Now, what they want to say but dare not say, someone has said it for them!
What they wanted to do but didn't dare to do, someone did it for them!
"Your Majesty Shengming, long live my emperor, long live!"

Trembling shouts, wave after wave, spread from outside Yanqing Hall to the gate of the palace.

Li Si stood in the midst of the shouts, looking around in a daze, but as far as his eyes could see, there was no one standing...

Chen Sheng lowered his head and said to Han Fei, "Did you hear that?"

Han Fei nodded: "I heard it!"

Chen Sheng: "Then remember it well."

Han Fei: "The subject is engraved in the bone and engraved in the heart."

Chen Sheng turned around and walked up the hall, shouting loudly without looking back: "Li Si!"

The dazed Li Si suddenly came back to his senses, hurriedly entered the hall, raised his hands and said, "The old minister is here."

Chen Sheng: "Did you see clearly those 'people with lofty ideals' who came to worship me in the early years outside the palace?"

Li Si's heart thumped, and he looked around and said: "The old minister's eyes were dazzled, I didn't look carefully just now."

Chen Sheng: "Go out of the palace if you don't see it clearly, and take a good look at it again, see it clearly and carefully..."

Li Si felt pain in his heart, and looked at Han Fei speechlessly.

Han Fei seemed to have noticed Li Si's gaze, turned his head to look at him, and pointed to the black cloth that was blindfolded him: "See, I'm blind!" '

Li Si withdrew his gaze, his face livid.

……

Two days later, Luoyi.

"hiss……"

Chen Feng, who was dressed in a military uniform, stood on the gate of the city, looked at the silk cloth with Meng Yi's private seal in his hand, and took a deep breath.

At the right time, Wu Guang, who was also well-armed, hurried over surrounded by a group of short soldiers: "Director Chen, is there a new order from the capital?"

Chen Feng pondered for a while, and casually stuffed the rolled cloth in Wu Guang's hands: "Look for yourself!"

The official Wang Ling is still on his way here. This is a pre-sentence official document delivered in advance through the fast track.

Wu Guang was so confident after reading the silk cloth strips at a glance, he slapped his thigh excitedly and said, "We knew that His Majesty would definitely not spare these bastards lightly!"

Chen Feng rolled a pair of dead fish eyes: "Do you think this is a good thing?"

Wu Guang held the silk cloth in his palm, looked at the white city outside the female wall with heavy snow, and said with a big grin, "Of course it's a good thing!"

He was smiling, but his eyes were as violent as a red-hot steel knife, trying to poke a big bloody hole in the white snow curtain.

Chen Feng rubbed his forehead with a headache. Earlier, he took the king's order to dispatch troops to the Huainan Red Army camp, but when it was Wu Guang, the major general and division commander who was about to be appointed as the commander of the army, he knew that this guy was sure. After suffocating, the chicken feet are finally exposed...

'Well! '

He thought to himself: "Since we can't control the negative impact of the public trial meeting within a controllable range, then we should simply use ruthless hands to kill them so that their livers tremble and they are afraid!" '

"Come on!"

He shouted, and a group of circuit court clerks walked quickly, bowing their hands and saluting.

Chen Feng said while thinking: "Arrange a beheading for the death row prisoners... Forget it, these bastards are not worthy!"

"Pass my order, open the execution ground, and immediately send all the death row prisoners to the execution ground!"

"Strike the gong to summon the people of the whole city, at least one person from each household must go to the execution ground to watch the punishment!"

"In addition, gather all the crimes and evidence of the death row prisoners in the execution ground, and explain them to the people of the city..."

The clerk took the order to leave, and after a while, the shrill sound of the gong resounded throughout Luoyi City.

Wu Guang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly smiled and said, "Erlang, the executioner of the Luoyi execution ground, let our brothers from the Red Army be the executioner!"

Chen Feng let out a "huh" and said angrily, "If I say that this is against the rules, what will you do?"

Wu Guang said softly with a smile: "Then you may only be able to judge a bunch of dead heads..."

The corners of Chen Feng's eyes twitched, and he said speechlessly, "Just this once, don't make another example!"

"Do you really think that the Paoze brothers of our Red Army are all butchers?"

Wu Guang said disdainfully: "In other places, you just begged us to be your executioners, and we are willing to take care of you and kill a group of unarmed people, which is to discredit our golden brand of the Red Army!"

Chen Feng: "Just do what you have to do, don't bother the king anymore... He never forgot to leave a place for Lao Liu at the home banquet."

Wu Guang held his saber and turned around and left: "Then hold on tight, tsk tsk tsk, when they drove us out of the city by pointing at our noses arrogantly, I wanted to slit their throats with a knife, see Is the blood coming out of their throats the same as ours!"

Chen Feng: "Tsk, then you are really perverted..."
