Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 563 Muzzle
They are trying to put Zhu Xiuyuan to death!
Zhu Xiuyuan frowned, turned his head slightly, and scanned the entire court.

In this large court, hundreds of civil and military officials, as many as seventy or eighty, came out to second the proposal.

On the civil servants' side, the only ones who still stayed in their positions were Yang Tingyu, the doctor of Yushitai, and his close confidants, followed by Dong Cheng, the governor of Runzhou Prefecture, Shao Si Kou of the Criminal and Prison Department, and others.

The last one is... King Jinling?

Zhu Xiuyuan was a little surprised. King Jinling didn't seize such a good opportunity?
Then on the military attaché side, except for King Zhongshan and his loyal confidants, the rest of the people, including General Han Qingshan and the Yulin Guards, all came forward to second the proposal.

Due to the preparation of the military examination, the selection of generals in the army through the military examination can be said to have broken the iron-clad hereditary system of military generals.

These generals all hated Zhu Xiuyuan in their hearts.

So on the surface, Zhu Xiuyuan's situation is worrying. More than two-thirds of the people in the civil and military dynasties dislike him...

In the middle of the main hall, the carnival of the ministers was still going on fiercely.

They were all excited. The one on the left "denounced Uncle Jiang Cheng" and the one on the right "seconded the proposal". It was noisy and messy, just like a vegetable market.

This situation is also like forcing the uterus!

The ministers became more and more presumptuous, and while making impulsive petitions, they gradually stepped forward.

The distance between them and Emperor Chen, who is above the royal level, is getting shorter and shorter...

Simply arrogant!
Chen Huangwu closed his eyes tightly, grasped the armrests of the dragon chair with both hands, and sat there. No one knew what he was thinking.

And Concubine You Gui next to him also looked worried, but in the current situation, she had no other way.

Below the main hall, the angry ministers were still spitting, and their voices became louder and louder. The unanimous voice almost drowned Chen Huang and Zhu Xiuyuan.

And the few ministers who remained in place did not take any action.

They seemed to have maintained complete neutrality, neither coming out to condemn nor speaking for Zhu Xiuyuan.

Only Dong Cheng and Yang Tingyu came out to say a few words to Zhu Xiuyuan, but they were alone and their voices were quickly covered up.

As for the King of Zhongshan, he was standing there with his eyes closed and concentrating.

King Zhongshan actually did not have a deep friendship with Zhu Xiuyuan.

The fundamental reason why he strongly supported martial arts examinations before was because martial arts examinations could make Chen Guo more powerful.

Now that the martial arts exam is over, even he knows how to organize it, so Zhu Xiuyuan has become dispensable in the eyes of King Zhongshan...

The carnival of the ministers became more and more enthusiastic. The more they talked, the more excited they became, and the more they talked, the more they moved forward. In the end, they surpassed the first-ranked Prime Minister Li Zhong and King Zhongshan.

Such is the power of crowds, they get carried away.

But at this moment, King Zhongshan opened his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the ministers crossing the thunder pond.

King Zhongshan suddenly became furious.

They could denounce Uncle Jiang Cheng, but now they are disrespectful and dare to cross the thunder pond and approach the imperial court. What are they going to do?
Rebellion?
King Zhongshan is actually a staunch royalist, and everything is in the interests of Emperor Chen.

For example, King Zhongshan was originally opposed to martial arts examinations, because martial arts examinations might cause instability in the military.

But after he understood the benefits of martial arts, King Zhongshan immediately changed his tune and firmly supported martial arts.

As for the interests of various armies, in the eyes of King Zhongshan, the interests of Chen Guo and Chen Huang are more important!
Now, these excited ministers were gradually approaching the royal steps in the court hall, and even passed the position of him and the Prime Minister Li Zhong...

In King Zhongshan's view, this was an offense to Emperor Chen and the court.

So suddenly King Zhongshan was angry!I saw his eyebrows raised, his tiger eyes glaring, his domineering aura exuding, his voice like a lion's roar, roaring: "You guys stop, what are you going to do? Do you want to climb up the imperial steps and take my place?"

King Zhongshan’s voice is really domineering.

In addition, he was in charge of the capital camp and had accumulated too much power in the court. His glare was like a tiger peeping from the side.

This domineering spirit immediately suppressed the ministers who crossed the thunder pool.

The impassioned words in their mouths immediately stopped, as if the gears were stuck.

They looked at King Zhongshan in horror, then lowered their heads and looked at the position of their legs and feet.

After discovering that they had actually arrived in this forbidden area, the legs and feet of these ministers who had crossed the minefield immediately began to tremble.

And moved with difficulty and quickly retreated.

At the same time, as King Zhongshan roared, Emperor Chen on the dragon chair also opened his eyes.

He was condescending and could see the ministers who had crossed the minefield at a glance.

Above the court, etiquette is the most important thing.

Who should stand in what position, and who should stand in what position? These are all strict requirements, and there is no room for mistakes.

But now, these ministers are too excited... Well, it is possible that they were squeezed forward by the ministers behind them.

Anyway, not only did they cross the designated area for petition, they even stepped forward and passed the positions of King Zhongshan and Prime Minister Li Zhong.

Li Zhong and King Zhongshan were the leaders of civil and military affairs. Whenever they were in the court, their positions were at the front and closest to Emperor Chen's imperial rank.

Those excited ministers actually ran in front of Li Zhong and King Zhongshan. This...

After being scared out of their wits by King Zhongshan's roar, the ministers suddenly felt like a bolt from the blue and retreated quickly, causing a crowded situation in the hall.

At the same time, the frantic petitions of the ministers seemed to have been pressed on the "pause button", and the entire hall became much cleaner.

Although these ministers were retreating rapidly, their move beyond the thunder pool was witnessed by the superior Chen Huang.

In an instant, Emperor Chen was furious!

He had been threatened by the deputy envoy of the State of Liang, and he was filled with anger. He was worried that he had no place to vent his worries. These "people" who rushed to "force him into the palace" actually dared to be disrespectful and cross the thunder pond!

Emperor Chen was a tyrannical person by nature, and the reason why he restrained himself before was because of the powerful military force of Liang State.

But... these ministers, is Emperor Chen still afraid of them?
Furthermore, Emperor Chen, who has been the emperor for most of his life, deeply understands the truth that at this moment, he cannot be soft and must be hardened.

The deputy envoy of Liang Guo had his back to Liang Guo, so Chen Huang did not dare to move, but if he wanted to be tough, he did not have to be tough on the deputy envoy of Liang Guo.

These "rats" jumped out at just the right time. Chen Huangzheng needed some people to establish his authority.

I would like to teach the deputy envoy of Liang State and others to see that as the king of Chen State, he can also decide life and death.

This group of ministers were in the crosshairs of a gun, and it was miserable.

"presumptuous!"

After Chen Huang thought about it for a while, he suddenly took action.
