Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 110 Impeachment of Li Changfeng

After a long silence, Feng Quji let out an exclamation: "This...how is this possible?!"

Murong Changkong also had a shocked expression on his face: "Take a gap in Liyu Mountain?! Is this something human can do?!"

Gu Tiancheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, was even more horrified: "A miracle! Absolutely a miracle! It's unbelievable. How did His Highness the Ninth Prince do it?!"

All the princes and courtiers had unbelievable expressions on their faces, and kept exclaiming, which made Emperor Ganwu secretly feel relieved.

Didn't you all believe it before?

Don't they all say that I am a fool?
What now?
Changfeng, my son, really gives me a long face!
He knew that after this incident, Li Changfeng would definitely become famous all over the world.

And he will also become a Mingjun who is praised by everyone!

The first prince and the second prince also had expressions of disbelief. They couldn't figure out how Li Changfeng did it.

This is totally against common sense!

How could it be possible for a mountain to open a gap of hundreds of feet in such a short period of time?
The sixth prince, Li Ji, looked distraught, and muttered to himself: "He actually did it, how is this possible? That is a mountain!"

After a brief absence, the sixth prince gradually regained his composure, his expression turned cold, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Father, my son wants to impeach someone!"

Immediately, the entire Xuanzheng Hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Li Ji with puzzled expressions.

Emperor Qianwu frowned slightly, not knowing what Li Ji was planning, but impeaching others at this time would not be a good thing.

Emperor Ganwu's originally happy mood suddenly became a little irritable, but he still asked patiently and indifferently: "Who do you want to impeach?"

Li Ji said solemnly: "The person impeached by my son is none other than Li Changfeng, brother of the Nine Emperors!"

As soon as this remark came out, Emperor Ganwu's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "Reason!"

Sensing that Emperor Qianwu seemed a little angry, Li Ji panicked, but then he thought of his own judgment and gained confidence again.

He generously stated: "Father, my son once passed by Liyu Mountain by boat. This mountain was so majestic that I was impressed. It is an extremely hard rocky mountain. How could Li Changfeng and others manage it in such a short period of time?" Open a gap?"

"Even if there are tens of thousands of craftsmen, it is impossible to open a gap without dozens of years, unless Brother Nine Emperors is a god, but how is this possible?"

"That's why I thought Brother Nine Emperors must have colluded with Sun Botai to deceive Father, so I dared to impeach Brother Nine Emperors, hoping that Father would punish him for his crime of deceiving the emperor and sue the world, lest people in the world laugh at the absurdity of my Li family!"

As soon as these words came out, the shocked courtiers gradually regained their composure.

The reason why they didn't think about it before was because they felt that neither Sun Botai nor Li Changfeng had the guts to bully the king.

After all, this kind of thing cannot be concealed at all, and the truth will be revealed after a little investigation. Who would do such a stupid thing to seek death.

But at this time, they don't think so anymore.

The content of the urgent report is really outrageous, is that something that mere mortals can do?

The only reasonable explanation is that Li Changfeng is deceiving the emperor, although this behavior seems very stupid and crazy.

But Li Changfeng's strategy in the court that day was already stupid and crazy. Maybe he was a fool, a madman?
If so, then everything makes sense.

Hearing Li Ji's words, Emperor Ganwu's face suddenly became gloomy, and his heart burned with anger.

Your Brother Nine Emperors has made such extraordinary achievements, and you actually want to punish him for the crime of deceiving the emperor?

If you suspect that Li Changfeng is deceiving the emperor, aren't you still saying that I am an ignorant person, that I am a fool?
It just doesn't make sense!

Before he could reprimand him, Feng Quji stood up, frowned and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I don't believe that His Royal Highness Ninth Prince dared to deceive you, but I think the content of the report is not credible, just like His Royal Highness Sixth Prince As I said, how could a gap of hundreds of feet be opened in Liyu Mountain in such a short period of time?!"

Immediately after, Murong Changkong came out and said, "Your Majesty, after I calm down, I also feel that this matter is strange, and we need to investigate and collect evidence carefully!"

Then there was Gu Tiancheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry: "Your Majesty, I have worked in the Ministry of Industry for so many years, and I still know something about cutting mountains and rocks. I can guarantee that this is absolutely impossible!"

"Second minister, there is definitely something wrong with this report!"

"My minister agrees!"

……

For a while, all the courtiers expressed doubts, and even the neutral faction who did not stand in line expressed their disbelief.

Only Li Jianye stood up and said loudly with confidence: "I believe in Brother Nine Emperors, and I believe that this report is absolutely true!"

When he was in Baishi City back then, he had heard of evil beasts attacking the city and was killed by artillery bombardment.

The terrifying movement that shook the mountain deafeningly is still fresh in his memory. If it is used to bombard the mountain, it is not impossible to open a gap.

The most important thing is that he has been in contact with Li Changfeng for so long and knows that Li Changfeng is a very smart person, how could he commit such a stupid thing?

The only explanation is that all this is true!
As soon as he finished speaking, the sixth prince Li Ji retorted: "Eleventh brother, brother knows that you have a very good relationship with ninth brother, but you can't ignore the facts and talk nonsense. You must know that millions of merchants are involved at this time. How can the lives of the people of the state be used on emotion?"

The sixth prince oppressed others with righteousness, and Li Jianye was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to refute, so he could only keep silent, and gave Li Ji a dissatisfied look.

snort!
The truth will come out in the future, let me see what you say!
The second prince Li Shou also didn't believe the content of this report, seeing the ministers in the court and the central government all said the same thing, he felt that it was an excellent opportunity to win people's hearts and show his intelligence.

He stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Father, I think what the Sixth Brother and all the ministers said is very true, this report must be false, it is the Ninth Brother who is deceiving Father!"

His statement aroused heated discussions. Except for Li Jianye, everyone did not believe the content of the report, saying that it was impossible for human beings to do it.

Only the oldest and most experienced eldest prince Li Chengye, after carefully observing Emperor Qianwu's increasingly gloomy face, did not choose to add insult to injury at this time.

However, he raised a question: "Father, I believe that Brother Nine Emperors is not the kind of person who dares to joke about such things and deceive Father. As long as he can explain clearly how he did it, all doubts will be heard." It will all be self-defeating.”

It has to be said that Li Chengye is a person with extremely deep thoughts.

When he said this, he didn't make Emperor Ganwu unhappy, but also answered his doubts, and he didn't stab his brother to give the courtiers the impression of generosity and benevolence.

It can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

It works really well too.

Many courtiers also cast approving glances at him, after all, who wouldn't want the future king to be a benevolent one?
Emperor Qianwu's expression relaxed a little, and he was happy in his heart. He was about to explain, but he swallowed it again, feeling a little tangled in his heart.

As long as he told about the changes in Baishi City and the artillery, guns and explosives he saw with his own eyes, the doubts of the officials would be easily resolved.

But in this case, artillery, firearms, and explosives will be exposed in advance, and if the rebels and barbarians of the Fengtian Society learn about it, they will lose the effect of surprise.

Moreover, there are many factions in the DPRK and the Eight Great Aristocratic Families, and he does not want to be exposed at this time.

After careful consideration, Emperor Ganwu said vaguely: "I don't know the details, but I believe that Li Changfeng will not lie to me, and that Sun Botai doesn't have the courage."

The First Prince and all the courtiers were stunned.

what is this?
Is this too sentimental?
This is a state matter, not a family matter, how can you do it so capriciously?

Why on earth did His Majesty suddenly dote on and trust a prince who has been ignored for ten years to the point of dementia?
Emperor Ganwu's words not only did not convince the First Prince and the courtiers, but made him doubt the authenticity of the report even more.

Emperor Qianwu saw what everyone was thinking, and added: "The imperial court will send special personnel to verify it. If you don't believe me, you can also send people to Shangzhou to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."

……

Emperor Qianwu was originally in a good mood.

But after a court meeting, the mood fell to the bottom, and he didn't care about dealing with the memorial, so he came to the harem Empress Murong with a gloomy face.

Empress Murong has been with Emperor Qianwu for so many years and knows him very well. She immediately saw why Emperor Qianwu was angry, so she smiled softly and said: "Your Majesty seems to be in a bad mood today. I don't know why you are angry. If it is convenient, you can If you say it, the concubine can share the worries for His Majesty."

"Hey!" Emperor Qianwu sighed, habitually lying on the soft bed, closed his eyes and said tiredly: "A few days ago, the nine sons were ordered to go to Shangzhou to deal with the floods, but now they are very effective, but they are questioned by the courtiers." , makes me quite annoyed."

"Oh?" Empress Murong frowned slightly in surprise, came to Emperor Qianwu's side, gently massaged Emperor Qianwu's neck and shoulders, and asked in doubt: "Since it is so effective, why do the courtiers question it?"

She couldn't figure it out. The criterion for judging the effectiveness of flood control is so simple. It only needs to check whether the flood is under control. There is no doubt about it.

Emperor Qianwu said helplessly: "Changfeng opened a gap of hundreds of feet on Liyu Mountain, diverted the Shang River flood into Baixie Valley, and the flood was completely eliminated. However, no one in the court believed him, and even a prince wanted to punish him for the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Hearing this, Empress Murong was taken aback, the hands that were massaging couldn't help but stop for a moment, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

Although she didn't know how majestic Liyu Mountain was, she also knew that it was impossible to open a gap of hundreds of feet in such a short period of time.

If it was that easy, the officials of the Ministry of Industry would have done it long ago, so why wait for Li Changfeng to do it?
Empress Murong was extremely intelligent, and immediately realized that the core of the problem was how Li Changfeng opened this gap.

Emperor Ganwu felt the change in her hand, opened his eyes slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Even you don't believe me?"
