The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 266 Wei Ning, you deserve to die

Weiyang Palace, Qilin Palace.

Wei Ning paid an audience with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still angry and didn't say anything when he saw Weining. He was sulking alone.

"Don't try to persuade me, I have my own plans."

"What if you get a bad reputation?"

"These dogs are so audacious and don't take me seriously at all!"

Wei Ning smiled and said, "Uncle, I'm not here to persuade you."

"I'll help you deal with those Confucian scholars."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "?"

His mouth opened slightly, but he hesitated to speak, and thought to himself, why don't you play according to the routine? According to conventional understanding, shouldn't you advise me not to be like this group of Confucian scholars at this time, and then tell me the dangers of it with emotion and reason?

Wei Ning said: "I have already let them enter the Qilin Hall."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty frowned and said, "What are you doing? Why are your elbows turned outward?"

"I finally sealed these nasty flies outside Weiyang Palace, why did you let them in?"

Wei Ning said: "It's better to clear things up than to block them. Don't worry, uncle, I'll handle it. They will leave on their own after a while."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at Wei Ning suspiciously, wondering what he was up to.

The crying outside the Qilin Hall began to ring out again. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty felt his scalp numb. He covered his ears and said to Wei Ning: "Listen, who can bear this?"

"Those who don't know think I am dead and they are crying for me."

Weining now understood Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. These Confucian scholars could really cry!

He also felt that his scalp was numb now, and he said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "I'll take care of it."

Under the doubtful eyes of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Weining walked out.

Yan Zhongyuan saw Wei Ning appearing in the Qilin Hall and cursed: "Traitor! Villain!"

"What do you want to do?"

"Look, everyone, this is the villain who is slandering His Majesty!"

The officials beside Yan Zhongyuan raised their eyes and stared at Weining angrily.

Wei Ning thought for a while and suddenly said: "Be bold!"

"There was an assassin in the palace just now! I'm here to protect him!"

"Some of you have evil intentions!"

Yan Zhongyuan was horrified. Assassinating the emperor was a serious matter of beheading. It was okay for them to show off with oral sex. But if you asked them to assassinate the emperor, they wouldn't dare to give them 10,000 courages!

"Nonsense! We don't have any! You don't want to spit on others!"

"That's right! We are all Confucian gentlemen. Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are engraved in our bones. How could we do such a heinous and unethical thing!"

"You are making a false accusation. Enough is enough with the Marquis of Zhenbei. What peace of mind do you have?"

Wei Ning said: "I don't want to doubt you, but now I have to check. You don't need to leave the palace. Go to the room and take off your clothes. I need to let the imperial army check whether you are carrying concealed weapons."

Yan Zhongyuan said angrily: "You are insulting people!"

"You are insulting me! You are doubting me!"

Wei Ning asked doubtfully: "Master Yan, why did you react so fiercely?"

Yan Zhongyuan pointed at Wei Ning: "You...me, okay!"

"Just check! If nothing is found, you need to apologize to me!"

Wei Ning: "Yeah."

He called the leader of the Forbidden Army from Jianzhang Yingqi and talked in his ear for a while. The leader of Jianzhang Yingqi widened his eyes in shock, "Is this... OK?" Wei Ning said: "Yes, why not? They are all loyal and courageous people, and they must not care about the difficult external conditions."

"Forcing a woman to have a baby must look like she is forcing her to die. How can I impress His Majesty if I don't go through a lot of hardships?"

The leader of Jianzhang Yingqi was speechless and thought to himself, Marquis Zhenbei, you are really cruel.

Not long after, Yan Zhongyuan and more than 30 officials were searched and released.

Then... everyone couldn't help but shudder.

They suddenly realized that something seemed to be missing from them.

The leader of Jianzhang Yingqi came to Weining and reported that he had not found anything.

Wei Ning hurriedly bowed and saluted Yan Zhongyuan and other officials, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I have to be cautious because of my responsibilities."

"All of you who are truly loyal to the emperor and patriotic, I won't disturb you anymore. You can continue to kneel down and cry."

After Wei Ning apologized, he turned and left.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the group of Confucian scholars couldn't help but shiver.

Everyone looked at each other and found that each other's bodies were trembling.

Weining took away all the fur coats they were wearing, and now their clothes were thin. Kneeling outside the Qilin Hall in such cold weather was a life worse than death.

This evil! Wei Ning, you deserve to die!

You are so shameless! You, you actually plundered our fur coats.

Everyone is now at a loss. This is not good. Previously, they had been blessed by leather jackets, so they just knelt down. It wasn't too cold anyway, so it was okay to kneel for a whole day, and they could still show their determination.

Now that they have knelt for a while, they will be too cold to stand it.

If this continues, won't your body collapse?

But now they don't dare to show off, so why should they show off? You can't scold Weining for being shameless and take away the leather jackets they were wearing, right?

Everyone is shameless. If this matter is spread, they will have no shame!

He even came to petition with his own little thoughts, and he even talked about risking his life to invite someone. If this spread, wouldn't he be a slap in the face?

At this moment, everyone panicked.

The biting cold wind kept blowing against them, and the bone-chilling feeling made them feel very complicated.

Even before they have even knelt down to drink tea, some people can't bear it anymore and their bodies are trembling with coldness. If this continues, their bodies will collapse in a short while.

Petitions are trivial matters, and everyone is here to gain fame. Naturally, they are not afraid of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killing them, because they can reap benefits and die a worthy death.

If you freeze to death, it has nothing to do with the emperor.

It’s not worth it to die!

So someone got up in a hurry, came to the outside of the Qilin Palace, and said loudly: "I have something to do today and need to leave the palace. Let me out quickly!"

"The same goes for me! Open the door quickly, quickly!"

Everyone's body was shivering and they didn't want to stay here for a moment.

Although Yan Zhongyuan was stubborn, the biting cold wind blew away all his strength. He snorted, stood up and said, "I have something to do at home today!"

"What are you doing? What are you looking at? Are you insulting us? If there wasn't something going on at home, we would have knelt down and died here today!"

The leader of Jianzhang Yingqi smiled slightly, then stepped into the Qilin Hall, clasped his fists and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, they are all leaving the palace, do you want to let them out?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "?"

He looked at Wei Ning suspiciously, and when he saw Wei Ning's half-smiling look, he knew it must be this kid's fault.

How did he do it?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hummed and said, "Let him go."

Wei Ning stopped the leader of Jianzhang Yingqi and said, "Go and tell them that assassins are rampant in the palace after the young years, and they will be searched as a routine the next time they come."

The leader of the Jianzhang camp laughed and said, "Here!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty couldn't help but asked Wei Ning in surprise: "What on earth did you do? Let them run away by themselves?"
