First emperor of the human race

Chapter 14 I Make You Kneel!

After listening to the report of the guards of the Royal Forest Army, the civil and military ministers all looked at Su Chen, nervous, confused, and staring at Su Chen.
Guo Sikong also raised his head, his eyes were full of surprise, he did not expect that Situ and Sima once told him to do great things, that is to do such a thing!

Hundreds of officials asked for their orders, which was a rare event in the 10-year history of the Great Xia Dynasty.

According to recorded historical records, only when the dynasty is dying and the emperor is incompetent and unjust, which arouses the dissatisfaction of the people of the ten prefectures and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, will there be petitions for orders from all officials.

In the past 10 years, except for this one time, there have been only two petitions from officials in the Great Xia Dynasty.

And every time a hundred officials ask for orders, it is the victory of the minister's power and the retreat of the imperial power.

Even the last time a hundred officials asked for orders, they directly pulled down the emperor of the dynasty, and were forced to let the young prince ascend the throne in advance.

Everyone held their breath.

Although only two-thirds of the officials participated in the pleading for orders this time, it basically represented the will of the Great Xia Dynasty today.
It seems that this should be their method.

Su Chen smiled, his smile was a little cold, he waved his hand, and said lightly, "Xuan."

"Xuan Baiguan has an audience!"

Li Nianzi's voice trembled a little, and he opened his throat to shout.

Li Nianzi's voice finally fell, "Wow!" Hundreds of officials, big and small, from all ministries, as long as they were qualified to go to the Supreme Harmony Hall, all rushed in.

Even the guards of the Royal Forest Army couldn't stop them, and they didn't dare to stop them. The people here are all ministers of the court. If they get hurt, they can't afford the crime.

At the same time, Su Chen lamented in his heart that he lacked military power, and he currently didn't even have enough control over the Imperial Forest Army guarding the palace.

Hundreds of officials rushed in and filled a large part of the empty Hall of Supreme Harmony at once.

This group of officials was divided into two rows, standing alone in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, with eager steps, firm expressions, and surprisingly uniform movements, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

With their hands tied in front of them, their official robes were majestic, and they walked forward in silence, then stood in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, raised their heads together, and stared at Su Chen.

"Presumptuous! How dare you attack the Hall of Supreme Harmony!"

Li Nianzi was shocked, and he yelled loudly.

Although he had never seen such a big scene, his voice was still sharp. He had to defend the dignity of the emperor.

When the emperor opened the early court, how could he tolerate the disrespect of the emperor by the courtiers!
No matter what the officials ask for orders, it is disrespect to the emperor!Contempt for imperial power!
"Shut up, you blind old eunuch!"

Minister of Rites sneered, and put a big hat on, making Li Nianzi confused and angry.

He behaved well, didn't do anything, and somehow became a villain who deceived the saints?

What is this all about!

"I, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, made a tour of the southern court! Today I face the saint, for the safety of the Daxia community, I will die in the court!"

"I, Shangshu Gongyue of the Household Department! Today I face the saint, and for the safety of the Daxia Society, I will die in the court!"

"I, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is cold and silent! Face the saint today, for the safety of the Daxia Society, I will die in the court!"

One after another, solemn and solemn voices sounded from the ranks of hundreds of officials, and officials continued to stand up and salute, showing their identities with deep voices.

From the looks of it, they came prepared, and the visitors were not kind!
Perhaps the emperor would ignore the remonstrance of one official, or even deliberately suppress it, but if it is ten or one hundred officials!The effect is not as simple as 1+1.

The officials who are eligible to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony are all core officials of the Great Xia Dynasty. The number is close to 200, representing the voice and attitude of the high-level power groups of the Dynasty.

The officials of Guo Sikong's faction in the court hall all looked ugly, and more people were at a loss, and Guo Sikong also quickly turned to look at Su Chen, staring at the emperor's expression, wanting to see a clue.

How will the emperor respond to such a big posture by all the officials?

From ancient times to the present, except for the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Su Chen, who is known as the first emperor of the human race, no emperor in the past has been able to fully control the situation in the court, and more or less the imperial power has been restricted. .

Although His Majesty's name is also Su Chen, this Su Chen is not that Su Chen!

Today, will you choose to compromise and give in at this time?

However, Guo Sikong was doomed to be disappointed, because he had seen the slightest fluctuation in the emperor's expression.

No fear, no dread, no surprise, no shock, no wavering.
Su Chen's eyes were still deep and indifferent, calmly watching the officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, as if watching a farce.

"The ministers and others jointly petitioned for orders today, to protect the safety of the family, the country, and the country, and to save the ruins of the Great Xia."

After all the officials spoke in turn, the Minister of Rites began to speak in a deep voice during the southern tour, opening his mouth for the country and the country.

Worthy of being a minister of the Ministry of Rites, this method of pulling a tiger's skin and covering a big hat is really easy to come by.

However, Su Chen was indifferent, just raised his hand, and said lightly: "Shut up."

"Your Majesty, I can't keep my mouth shut, I have to say it!"

Nan Xunchao's eyes were determined, like an impassioned righteous man, standing in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, admonishing the current emperor for the sake of his family, country and society.

This appearance, no matter how you look at it, is the appearance of a loyal minister with a long history.

"I think that the current Great Xia Dynasty"

"I tell you to shut up!"

Su Chen let out a low voice, his voice suddenly raised, he stood up from the dragon chair, walked to the white marble steps and stood still, quietly looking down at the group of officials who came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to plead for orders.

The audience was silent.

The voice of the Southern Tour also came to an abrupt end.

I don't know why, the emperor at this time gave Nan Xunchao an inexplicable sense of fear and danger, which made him tremble.

"Hundreds of officials gather in groups, and they will attack the court! There is no one in their eyes!"

Su Chen's voice was extremely cold, he stared at the officials, and said indifferently: "You, do you still have the emperor in your eyes! Do you still have the laws and regulations of the Great Xia Dynasty! Do you still have the awareness of being a courtier!"

"Your Majesty, I came here today to ask for orders. Naturally, there are some rules that cannot be followed. If Your Majesty feels that the ministers are lawless, I will plead guilty after asking for orders."

Hubu Shangshu Gongyue gritted his teeth and stood up, and said in a low voice that he could not let Nan Xunchao face the pressure of the emperor alone.

"Hundred officials ask for orders, it is a big matter, I naturally understand."

Su Chen's voice returned to calm.

All the officials breathed a sigh of relief, sweating in their hearts, it seems that Situ and Sima were right in their calculations.

Your Majesty, indeed, he is still afraid of asking for orders from all officials. After all, this is the general trend of the court, and His Majesty cannot stop it alone.

Thinking of this, Nan Xunchao and the others were full of confidence again.

"but."

However, Su Chen turned and said indifferently: "Since you are here to ask for your life, you must also understand the etiquette of superiority and inferiority!"

"Hundreds of officials are asking for orders to teach the emperor what is ritual, what is for the people, and what is for the country. They should know better what is for the courtesy, for the people, and for the country!"

"Of course, you are waiting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, why don't you kneel down when you see me? Is this what you keep saying that all officials are begging for orders!"

Su Chen's voice was calm, but it resounded in the quiet Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The emperor's words are true. Pleading for orders from all officials is the greatest weapon to restrain the emperor's subjects, but if all officials can't even abide by the most basic etiquette, how can we talk about asking for orders from all officials? !
Nan Xunchao and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, but all the officials paid attention to the same momentum, and what they paid attention to was the courage and determination to be twisted together.

If they knelt down now, wouldn't their momentum be half weak?
But if you don't kneel, it doesn't make sense in terms of emotion and reason!

Nan Xunchao and the others were silent for a while, Guo Sikong looked startled, and looked at Su Chen with some surprise.

He really didn't expect that the emperor was still so strong at this time, and so quickly found a loophole in the pleadings of the officials, suppressing the momentum, and controlling the initiative and rhythm of the court.

Is this still the gentle and low-key Ninth Prince?

He has changed so much!
"Why, don't you kneel?"

Su Chen's face was so calm that no one could tell he was happy or angry. He just stood on the white marble steps, his eyes swept across the audience, and he said in a cold voice: "Then I'm a little puzzled. Why don't all officials plead for orders and not kneel? What is the difference between pleading for life and trying to kill the king?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers have absolutely no intention of treason, but just want to jointly accept advice, I hope Your Majesty."

The southern tour was in a hurry, and he was sweating profusely, and shouted loudly.

If the hat of treason is confirmed, the emperor will turn against the army, and the calculations of the two adults, Situ and Sima, will all come to naught.

"In that case."

Su Chen interrupted Nan Xunchao's words, took a step forward, and shouted: "I want you to kneel down!"

The jade crown and beaded curtain swayed, and the golden yellow robe moved without wind. Su Chen's voice echoed throughout the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony, which was shocking endlessly.

Don't care what you are going to do, as long as you are above the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
face saint?

Kneel first!
