I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 40 Lead the snake out of the hole

"Since the late emperor was not held hostage by anyone, nor was he bewitched by me, he was even very sober.

Then why did you violate the last emperor's edict so much!

Wanting to do such a rebellious thing again and again!
It was the first emperor who said that Liu Sheng, the eldest son of the emperor, had a chronic illness and was unable to take on the great responsibility, so he had no choice but to appoint the youngest son Liu Long!

That is, His Majesty today!

This palace was appointed by the first emperor to assist the government, but why!
Aren't you afraid that after your death, there will be criminals in this world who want to bully us orphans and widows?
My great man builds the country with benevolence and filial piety. If we even violate the orders of the first emperor, we will be disloyal to the country and unfilial to the monarch.

How can this big man stand between heaven and earth!
What you said just now was right, the heavens were so angry that they first sent floods to the sky, and then sent meteorites and thunder to punish them.

It is to alert me, there are unfaithful and unfilial people in this court! "

The more excited Deng Suiyue said, the sharp voice directly suppressed all the courtiers, not even giving them any chance to refute.

And when Deng Sui said the last sentence, he still frowned.

Thinking for a while whether to save the servant who was obviously targeted, or to impeach the queen mother in front of countless courtiers by the way.

It's too rude to be so noisy?
Just when they were still thinking about these beautiful things, Deng Sui's last words made them freeze in place.

then
"Why did this crime suddenly appear on us?"

At this moment, no matter it was Sikong Yinqin who didn't know what to say, and didn't even understand what was going on.

And as the black hand behind this matter, the well-known instigator, Tai Chang Zhouzhang.

Or those courtiers who have united in this court.

At this moment, they all froze in place, and all of them had such a thought in their hearts.

I don't know if this is well said, it almost forced the queen mother to issue an edict.

Why did he let all the crimes fall on him all of a sudden?

Then what are they doing!
"Queen, that's a bad word."

"What the queen mother said is exactly!"

Just when the ministers were about to stand up and refute, Situ Xu Fang stood up straight away as one of the three princes who had been silent for a long time.

Then interrupted what everyone wanted to say.

Not only did he receive Deng Sui's angry reprimand, but he also directly admitted the matter!

"As one of the three lords of the Han Dynasty, the old minister failed to help the queen mother and help your majesty govern the government.

As a result, ghosts and ghosts are rampant in the court today, so that the wrath of heaven will be in the country.

The old minister deserves death!

What the Empress Dowager said today made the old minister feel enlightened and awakened.

If the heavens really want to blame it, it is naturally because I waited to be the first emperor and the man who assisted the government of the Han Dynasty and failed to do my best.

I ask the Empress Dowager to issue punishments instead of His Majesty immediately, for peace of mind! "

Situ Gong Xu Fang, it's not a day or two since he yelled that Sangong replaced the emperor as the confessor of heaven's punishment.

It can even be said that since he became one of the three men, he has been thinking about this kind of thing all day long.

It was as if he felt that the three princes had no real power, and wanted to give himself an ending that was enough to leave a name in the history books.

It's just his idea.

Others didn't want to do this, so the emperor didn't dare to agree to this idea, and others didn't even dare him to agree.

But no one expected that today's empress dowager directly counted this day's punishment on the heads of their group of courtiers.

And this Situ Xu Fang was stunned to accept it just like that.

This is a good moment, he pleaded guilty to Xu Fang, do they admit it?
If he pleaded guilty, then the drama of wanting to force the palace is completely gone.

They even have to pay a heavy price for this. Who are the ghosts and monsters in the court, and how many of these three princes are going to take down?
Most importantly, it's against the rules!

Everyone wanted to talk, but now Deng Sui was fully prepared.

Since she dared to say these words in front of all the courtiers in front of the court today, she blatantly violated the "rules".

Then she already had a brand new rule in her mind.

Deng Sui knew a truth very well.

That is, there has never been any force in this world that is truly intimate.

The reason why she was passive before was because these courtiers seemed to be monolithic. No matter what she wanted to do, as long as it was not in their interests, she would get their opposition.

And in order to ensure her own safety, she must maintain this rule, and thus be restricted by them.

But are they all right?

No, of course not!
Even twin brothers with the same father and mother have different thoughts, not to mention each of them has their own family behind them!
These families are big or small, some are deeply rooted, and some are just rising.

These families also need more strength to grow themselves.

Therefore, this is Deng Sui's opportunity.

Looking at the many courtiers who wanted to speak again, Deng Sui spoke again.

This time, she wants to order directly!

"His Majesty's order!
Xu Fang, Situ Gong, made outstanding contributions to stabilizing the court during the period of His Majesty's serious illness. He was specially granted the title of Marquis of Longxiang, with a thousand households in the city! "

Fenghou, rewarding one hundred households in Shiyi, the court, who was still thinking about how to dismiss the Sangong to appease the wrath of God, suddenly fell into a strange situation again.

They didn't know what Deng Sui wanted to do.

Why do things so entangled!

And then, Deng Sui's reward was not over yet.

"Sikong Yinqin also has the merits of stabilizing the court and assisting the government. He was granted the title of Marquis of Futing and has five hundred households in the township!"

After Situ is Sikong.

The rewards of these two people gradually calmed down the excitement of the courtiers, and some people even wondered if this was because the Queen Mother was bluffing again just now.

Then want to appease all of them with rewards?

But what follows is not a reward for others, but a punishment!

"Situ Xufang, Sikong Yinqin, although they have made great contributions to helping the country, but as the three princes, they failed to quell the wrath of the sky, which is really a heinous crime.

In the name of God today.

Remove Xu Fang from the position of Situ, remove Yin Qin from the position of Sikong, order the country, and do not return to the capital without an edict! "

"Taichang Zhouzhang, loyal to the monarch and the country, devoted himself to the country and the people.

Today, the Sangong is vacant. Your Majesty is young, and the affairs of the court must be left unattended.

Now Taichang should serve the country, advance to Da Sikong, assist His Majesty, and then open the prosperity of my great man! "

At this moment, Deng Sui used two rewards, two dismissals, and one promotion to rank directly deceived everyone present.

At the same time, cracks appeared in the hearts of the "intimate" courtiers.

Why did Zhou Zhang suddenly replace Yin Qin?
