Han family achievements

Chapter 221

In the apse, as a group of people knelt down, a quiet needle drop could be heard.

"Seeking to establish a prince" and "very disappointed with me" made the nature of the matter more serious than ever!
A group of civil and military ministers were silent like cicadas.

Originally, some people had already thought about the wording, but because Liu Bian had only a short sentence, he couldn't say it anymore.

The most nervous ones were not Liu Xie and Fu Wan, but Cai Yong.

This ambitious national head was pale and trembling all over at the moment, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Liu Bian looked down at these kneeling courtiers, his expression remained motionless, and the sternness in his eyes was beating endlessly.

The Great Han Dynasty, I don’t know when it started, the rules and disciplines collapsed, and they acted recklessly, not to mention that local officials became "true princes". These civil and military ministers in the court also did whatever they wanted, without awe!

Even after Liu Bian rectified several times and warned repeatedly, this incident still happened!
This is a challenge to Liu Bian's authority and a challenge to the imperial power!
Liu Bian will never tolerate it!
He took a deep breath, thinking about what to do.

Wang Yun, Liu Xie, Fu Wan, Cai Yong, these people are all important ministers in the court, they need to be dealt with safely, and they need strong deterrence!

"Debate,"

In the silence, Empress Dowager He couldn't help it anymore, with a stiff smile on her face, she said: "It's the courtiers' responsibility to recommend the prince, and it's not a big deal..."

Liu Bian turned his head slightly and glanced at this cheap old lady.

Empress Dowager He's smile became even stiffer, but she felt that she couldn't get off the stage in public. She frowned slightly and said, "Then Wang Yun won't say anything. What's wrong with Liu Xie recommending the crown prince? Don't you often say brother Is your brother respectful?"

The anger in Liu Bian's heart was rushing up, this cheap old lady was really confused.

Looking at Empress Dowager He, and then at the courtiers kneeling on the ground, Liu Bian wished he could cut Wang Yun into pieces!

Empress Dowager Dong is much more shrewd than Empress Dowager He, and she is more able to read words and expressions. Seeing Liu Bian's gloomy eyes, she hastily said, "Your Majesty, Liu Xie is still young, and he was instigated by traitors. He did not do so voluntarily. Please learn from Your Majesty."

The old queen was a little more sober, Liu Bian ignored it, his eyes were searching for a group of people kneeling, and he fell on Cai Yong, and said lightly: "Guo Zhang."

Cai Wenji, who was still standing beside her, twisted her hands tightly when she heard the words, panic was written all over her face.

Cai Yong's heart beat like a beating drum, his mouth was parched, his eyes stared at the ground, and he said in a trembling voice: "I am confused. Then Wang Yun, Wang Yun and my minister said that establishing a crown prince is the foundation of the country, and it can also fight against rebellion and curb blackmail. Yan... the minister, the minister was confused, so he believed his words..."

Liu Bian snorted coldly and said, "This prince happens to be your grandson, you just happen to be confused!"

"I'm guilty!" Cai Yong fell on the ground, his eyes full of fear.

Liu Bian looked at the others, glanced around, and finally said to Liu Xie, "Liu Xie, Wang Yun also said that to you?"

"Yes." Liu Xie knelt on the ground, trembling in his tone.

Empress Dowager Dong watched from the sidelines, feeling extremely worried.

In the past, when Liu Bian wanted to kill Liu Xie, the excuses were not so sufficient, but now he can be killed openly for the crime of 'collaborating with courtiers with wrong intentions'.

At this moment, Empress Dowager He still doesn't understand why the matter is so serious, and wants to talk.

"Humph,"

Liu Bian opened his mouth first, staring coldly at the people in front of him, and said: "A few high-sounding words, to deceive the prince of the dynasty, Yu Shi Zhongcheng, and Tai Changqing, are you so easy to deceive?"

"I'm guilty!" Cai Yong said again after Liu Xie fell down.

"Cough cough..."

Suddenly, Lu Zhi coughed violently, then suppressed it, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please punish me for your disrespect."

Liu Bian frowned, ignored him, and said, "Prime Minister, tell me, how should we deal with this matter?"

Yang Biao's face was as fat as iron, his expression was solemn, he stood up and raised his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Return to Your Majesty, Wang Yun colluded with the courtiers, plotted to establish the crown prince, and used cunning methods. His intentions are unpredictable. Please punish him severely!"

Liu Bian's eyes sharpened a little, and he said, "What I'm asking you is, how to deal with it?"

Yang Biao habitually shirked, met Liu Bian's gaze, trembled in his heart, and said hastily: "The minister intends to go to prison, and it will be judged by the Tingwei Mansion, and the sentence will be strictly imposed."

He originally wanted to say that Yushitai, Xingcao, and Tingweifu's three jurisprudences will be interrogated, but Sima Jun, the Minister of Punishment Cao, was dispatched by Wang Yun, and Yushitai was involved in the case, so he could only be tried by Tingweifu.

Zhong Yao got up suddenly, raised his hand in a serious manner and said, "Your Majesty, this case involves Zuo Pushe of Shangshutai, King of Bohai Sea, Yushi Zhongcheng, Taichangqing, and it cannot be resolved by the Tingweifu."

Yang Biao's small eyes slightly opened, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty, I request the decree, and I will try it myself as the prime minister!"

Zhong Yao regretted it a little, glanced at Yang Biao's back, and said, "Shangshutai is in charge, and the prime minister has no power of judgment."

Yang Biao felt uneasy, seeing that Zhong Yao didn't leave him a way out, his face was as fat as iron, and his belly was puffed out, he turned his head and shouted: "Could it be that you want your Majesty to go to the trial?"

Zhong Yao raised his hand to him, but did not speak.

Xun You, Xun Yu and the others looked at each other quietly, everyone knew that such a big case had to be decided by the palace.

"Cough cough,"

Lu Zhi suppressed his cough, stood up with a haggard face, and said, "Your Majesty, this case is complicated, and Wang Yun must be given a chance to argue in order to clarify the facts of the case.

"Senior." Sima Jun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Liu Bian looked at him, half-closed his eyes.

From what he knew, Sima Jun was not involved.

Or, he doesn't qualify right now.

Sima Jun's speaking at this time was actually a self-help act of 'clearing' the relationship.

Before Liu Bian could respond, Empress Dowager He said, "If this continues, Wang Yun will freeze to death outside."

Liu Bian looked outside the door, the heavy snow was still falling, even though there was a charcoal stove in the apse, he could still feel the slightest chill.

Glancing at Yang Biao and the others from the corner of the eye, Liu Bian thought for a while and said to himself: That's fine, let's end it early so as not to have long nights and dreams.

"Bring him in." Liu Bian said lightly.

Dian Wei responded, and said in a voice not far away: "Bring it in."

Two guards patted off the snow from Wang Yun's body, and carried Wang Yun into the door.

Wang Yun had snow on his head, his lips were trembling, his face was pale, his whole body was trembling, but his eyes were very calm.

Kneeling tremblingly, he said: "I see Your Majesty."

Whether sitting or kneeling in the hall, seeing Wang Yun's appearance, everyone felt sorry for him.

"You should call yourself a criminal minister." Pan Yin reminded from the side.

Madam Wang Yun huddled on the ground, not because she was afraid, but because she was cold, but her tone was very firm, and she said: "Your Majesty, I recommend the prince for the sake of the country, for my great man, and for your majesty's sake. Nothing wrong."

Liu Bian sneered, and said, "You did nothing wrong? If it was upright, why did you hook up with the King of Bohai, Fu Wan, Tai Changqing, and even the Empress Dowager? Your crime is unforgivable!"

Wang Yun was neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "I have never been sneaky, nor have I ever bewitched the Queen Mother, what I have said is the truth. Your Majesty named the eldest prince 'Shao', and the meaning is self-evident. Now the riots and bandits are rampant, and the king of Bohai has written a letter to do more than one action. Yes, to quell chaos, to the court, and to Your Majesty, it is the best policy. Although the ministers have colluded with each other, they are absolutely selfless, and they are all for my great Han Jiangshan's thoughts, Your Majesty, please be careful!"

"You..." Liu Bian was so blocked by his words that he couldn't refute for a while!

Yang Biao, Xun You, Xun You, Zhong Yao, Sima Jun and others were still kneeling on the ground, unable to see their expressions clearly.

But many people felt that Wang Yun's words were not unreasonable.

At this time, setting up a crown prince is too important for consolidating the court and reassuring the hearts of the people!

"Bian'er, in my opinion, why not take the opportunity to appoint a prince,"

Empress Dowager He looked at Wang Yun pitifully, and argued with Liu, "Liu Shao is not an outsider, he is your son after all."

Liu Bian frowned, ignoring Empress Dowager He at all, as if sensing the thoughts of some people in the hall, staring at Wang Yun with stern eyes, and said coldly, "No selfishness at all? Are you really selfless?"

"The minister is absolutely selfless." Wang Yun said.

He warmed up a little, his face was not as pale as before, and his heart was calmer.

If you can't plead guilty, if you don't plead guilty, you still have a way to live. Once you plead guilty, you will die!
Liu Bian waved his hands, sat up straight and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The people who had been kneeling for a long time got up one after another. Some people were so stiff that they almost couldn't get up. You help me and I help you. In addition, there are not so many seats, and it is very chaotic under mutual humility.

Seeing this, Pan Yin hastily summoned a servant to help her and increase the number of seats.

It took a long time for the civil and military officials to sit neatly, all bowed and bowed their heads, and no one spoke.

Except for Lu Zhi who occasionally coughed.

Liu Bian suppressed his anger, looked around the expressions of the crowd, and said solemnly: "Wang Yun, you said you have no selfish intentions? Let me ask you, then Liu Hong, did you call him into Beijing?"

Wang Yun knelt there, raised his hand, his pale face was a little rosy, he was indifferent but firm, and said: "This is a letter to Liu Gong. When His Majesty came to the throne, the people I saw, looking at the government and the public, Liu Gong is the leader." Your honor, I invite him to come to Beijing to witness the East Palace, so as to stop Youyou's mouth."

"You are really thoughtful!"

Liu Bian really had a murderous plan for Wang Yun, and he was able to plan such a big game under his nose!
Wang Yun raised his hand, without changing his face, and said: "Your Majesty, the death of the minister is not a pity, but the crown prince is the foundation of the country, and the world looks forward to it. I ask your majesty to canonize it as soon as possible, so that the hearts of all people will be safe."

Liu Bian looked indifferently, and said: "Zhen, if you can't appease the hearts of the people, you must have the East Palace?"

Liu Xie sat still, glanced at Wang Yun, with a tense face, desperately hoping that Wang Yun would stop talking.

After lying down, Cai Yong and others also wanted to grab Wang Yun's throat and prevent him from saying another word!

Yang Biao, Xun You and others also looked dignified. If Wang Yun is so 'upright', today's affairs will be difficult to be kind!
Zuo Pushe, Yushi Zhongcheng, Taichangqing, Bohai King.

Wang Yun, as the No. [-] person in Shangshutai, actually presided over the government affairs of Shangshutai for two years; Fu Wan was Yushi Zhongcheng, and his wife was Princess Yang'an; Not to mention, the younger brother of His Majesty today!

Any one of these four people would be earth-shattering to deal with, let alone four!

Xun You, Xun Yu, Zhong Yao and the others looked at each other calmly, thinking about countermeasures and calculating the worst consequences at the same time!

Wang Yun didn't shut up like they thought. He looked at Liu Bian more seriously and said, "Your Majesty is the lord of all peoples, but the East Palace is equally important. I ask for the death penalty. Please put your ancestors, the country, and the country as the most important thing, and quickly establish a crown prince." !"

As he spoke, Wang Yun fell to the ground, hitting his head heavily on the ground.

Liu Bian's expression was suddenly gloomy, this Wang Yun's death is imminent, how dare he join the army!
Looking at Wang Yun, he glanced at the others present.

These courtiers bowed their heads and remained silent.

Liu Bian narrowed his eyes, his heart was burning with anger.

He could see clearly that the reason why these courtiers didn't speak was because Wang Yun's methods were flawed, but in their view, establishing a crown prince was indeed an imminent matter!
In Liu Bian's mind, he was calculating quickly. To deal with Wang Yun in this way, in the eyes of the government and the opposition, it was inevitable that there would be some "justifications" and he would not be able to convince the public.

What's more, he still has to consider Liu Xie, Fu Wan, and Cai Yong.

"His Majesty."

At this time, Pan Yin took the three playbooks from outside and handed them to Liu Bian.

Liu Bian frowned, at such a time, what kind of memorabilia is there.

He stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and looked at it, his ugly expression suddenly became calm, followed by the second and third.

At the end, he put it down expressionlessly, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked up at the door.

It was snowing heavily and the wind was biting cold.

The atmosphere in the apse seemed to be affected as well, there was no sound, and everyone's eyes were on Liu Bian.

And Liu Bian's expression after reading the three memorials made them tangle in their hearts, and they felt that something was wrong.

"Cough cough cough,"

Lu Zhi couldn't hold on any longer, he coughed violently, but still raised his hand, and argued to Liu, "May I ask Your Majesty, what are these three memorabilia?"

Liu Bian glanced at him from the corner of his eye, and said: "Liu Yu, Mu of Youzhou, Dingyuan, Mu of Yangzhou, and Zhu Jun, Mu of Qingzhou, wrote to recommend Liu Shao as the crown prince."

Not only Lu Zhi, everyone was shocked when they heard the words!
Man Dian's eyes shifted from Liu Bian to Wang Yun's back and profile.

Liu Yu, Ding Yuan, and Zhu Jun, the three of them have arrived so neatly, it is obvious that they have premeditated!
It's a big taboo for courtiers to collude with the commander-in-chief!
Yang Biao had a big belly, and his heart felt cold.

He guessed that Wang Yun's plan would definitely not be small, but he never expected that there were three state shepherds who agreed with him!

Er Xun, Sima Jun, Zhong Yao, Huangfu Song and others all bowed their heads in silence.

At this time, Wang Yun must die if he does not die.

But Wang Yun didn't change his face, straightened up, raised his hand solemnly, and said: "Your Majesty, the country is the most important thing!"

After speaking, he fell to the ground again.

Liu Bian put down his teacup slowly, and said in a calm tone, "Wang Yun, he has selfish motives, bewitched Sheng Cong, conspired to succeed him, and his heart can be punished. The barbarians."

In the apse, a needle can be heard!
They all knew the seriousness of the matter, but they never expected that it would be so serious as to kill the clan!

Wang Yun's expression changed suddenly, he got up abruptly, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have absolutely no selfish intentions, and I only care about my country and your majesty's concern. Please learn from your majesty!"

Liu Bian ignored him, stared at Yang Biao, and said, "This matter will be handled by the prime minister himself."

Yang Biao's chubby face trembled, he raised his hand and said, "Minister, I take the order."

　A friend got depressed, called for hours, threw up.

　　Today's update is a bit small, set a flag: tomorrow will be ten thousand! ! !
