Prehistoric: Lord of the Nine Heavens at the Beginning, the Mythical Kunpeng

Chapter 324: Wen Taishi’s conditions

Before King Zhou could finish his words, a powerful voice slowly sounded.

"Old minister, Wen Zhong has something to report."

As he spoke, Master Wen's majestic figure appeared in the main hall.

King Zhou couldn't help but feel a little frightened when he saw Wen Zhong, whose beard and hair were all white, and who was calm and powerful.

"Old Master, I wonder what you have to say?"

Wen Zhong took out a memorial from his sleeve and handed it out with both hands.

Immediately, someone from the palace took Wen Zhong's memorial and handed it to King Zhou.

King Zhou took the memorial, glanced at it, and was stunned.

The conditions proposed by Wen Zhong are really too harsh!

Although Wen Zhong worked hard as an auxiliary minister, but now that he is an adult, how can he listen to Wen Zhong on everything?

The first item listed by Wen Zhong was to demolish Lutai, stabilize the people and prevent unrest.

How could King Zhou be willing to do this?

He spent countless efforts and money to build Lutai. It would be a pity once it is demolished.

King Zhou picked up the red pen and waved it for a long time on this line. After all, he was reluctant to put down the pen.

I had to continue reading the second article.

The second is to ask King Zhou to dismantle the cannon pillars.

King Zhou felt that although cannon burning was very cruel and a very scary punishment, for some reason, many ministers were not afraid of his cannon fire punishment. The deterrent effect was limited, so just tear it down!

King Zhou continued to look down, and the third item was the "迿 basin". The principle was similar to that of Paolao. It looked bluffing, but it was not very useful. Just tear it down.

As for the rest, King Zhou would never agree to demote Su Daji.

King Zhou did not want to agree to the beheading of Fei Zhong and You Hun. These two people understood his thoughts best and handled matters appropriately. If they were beheaded, where would they find such a pair of ministers?

Thinking of this, King Zhou couldn't help but shook his head.

"Master, I think seven of the ten items you mentioned can be approved."

"Demolish Lutai, depose Empress Su, and behead Fei You. I will not allow it. For the rest, I will listen to what the Grand Master says."

As soon as King Zhou finished speaking, a burst of whispers could not help but come from the hall.

"It must be Grand Master Wen. Just after he came back, he asked the king to abolish the cannons and pots. It's really a big deal!"

"No, many ministers at that time advised His Majesty not to use such cruel punishments. In the end, they all died on the cannon pole."

Wen Zhong squinted his eyes and felt a little uncomfortable listening to the discussions of the ministers.

I have been away from the court for too long, and these ministers have been tortured too deeply by King Zhou.

So much so that abolishing a vicious punishment can make hundreds of officials happy.

Today, what he Wen Zhong wants is not partial victory or staged success, but to complete his achievements in one battle!

"Your Majesty, after demoting the Soviet Union, you beheaded Fei You and demolished three deer platforms. Why don't you allow it?"

Wen Zhong raised his head and looked at King Zhou on the dragon throne with burning eyes.

King Zhou felt somewhat uncomfortable when Wen Zhong looked at him, but he still managed to cheer up and talked about his reasons one by one.

"Grand Master, this Queen Su has good conduct and has no moral misconduct. How can she be demoted so easily?"

"Fei Zhong and You Hun, middle-level officials, are loyal and have meritorious deeds. Why do you casually call them traitors and want to kill them?"

"As for Lutai, it cost a lot of manpower and material resources to build. If it is demolished, it will definitely require a lot of manpower and material resources. It will be too laborious and waste money."

After hearing this, the Grand Master couldn't help but sneer.

When did Daji become a virtuous and virtuous person?

When did Fei Zhong and Youhun become loyal ministers?

When will the deer platform be no longer demolished?

Wen Taishi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Lutai is a waste of money and people. The purpose of demolishing it is to calm the resentment of the people in the world." "As for Daji, she suggested that Your Majesty create punishments such as cannons and pots. How can it be regarded as the anger of heaven and the resentment of people? Virtuous and virtuous?"

"As for Fei Zhong and You Hun, they have spread slanderous lies in His Majesty's ears to harm Zhongliang. If they are killed, the court will be clean."

King Zhou was meditating. Fei Zhong heard that someone was planning to kill him, so he immediately came out to see him.

Hearing that the Grand Master had been away from court for a long time and did not recognize Fei Zhong, he asked the people around him who was speaking.

Fei Zhong proudly said: "The humble position is that of Fei Zhong, a senior official."

Wen Taishi had been attending Fei Zhong for a long time, and now he finally saw him in person, and couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

"Master Fei, what do you have to say?"

Fei Zhong had no idea what Taishi Wen was doing, nor did he know that he had hit a brick wall this time.

"Grand Master, although you are a very respected minister, you force His Majesty to review the memorial. This does not comply with the provisions of etiquette and law."

"Forcing Your Majesty to depose the Queen is not in line with the duty of a minister."

"It is against the law to allow His Majesty to kill innocent ministers."

For a moment, Fei Zhong spoke so impassionedly that he even began to imagine how King Zhou would reward him after the court meeting.

What would Daji do? Praise herself.

After Master Wen heard this, an eye suddenly opened on his forehead and his beard stood up. In an instant, he became very powerful.

"Fei Zhong, this traitor, confuses Your Majesty with his sweet words and makes me angry!"

With that said, Master Wen stretched out his hand and punched Fei Zhong in the face, knocking Fei Zhong far away.

Fei Zhong rolled on the ground like a broken sack.

When You Hun saw that his comrade was being beaten, he rushed out and said, "Your Majesty, the Grand Master beat the minister in front of Your Majesty. This is not a slap on Lord Fei Zhong, but a slap on His Majesty's face!"

When the Grand Master heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and look at You Hun.

At this time, the person who can speak for Fei Zhong may not be a good person.

Since I have already stretched out my hand today, why not give it a good shot!

Thinking of this, Master Wen sneered and looked at You Hun: "What do you call this lord?"

When You Hun saw this, he quickly responded: "I am You Hun."

After hearing this, Grand Master Wen couldn't help but be overjoyed: "The traitor I'm looking for is you. You and Fei Zhong colluded with each other to protect each other. They happened to meet me today and we dealt with you together."

As he said this, Master Wen waved his right hand and slapped You Hun far away.

"Come here. Drag these two traitors out and kill them."

Wen Taishi wiped the dust off his hands and casually ordered the guards beside him.

The warriors in the palace had been displeased with Fei Zhong and You Hun for a long time. After hearing the Grand Master's order, they hurriedly dragged them down.

King Zhou couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw Fei Zhong and You Hun being dragged down.

"These two guys don't know how to read words and emotions. They even dare to mess with Grand Master Wen."

"It's good to let them learn a lesson."

Hearing that the Grand Master turned around, he clasped his fists with both hands and asked King Zhou for an order to kill Fei Zhong and You Hun.

King Zhou could not bear to do anything, so he could only give in to others.

"Grand Master, your suggestions are all very good. Although Fei Zhong and You Hun have offended the Grand Master, they will not be punished by death. It is better to let the Yamen judge them. If they are really guilty, it will not be too late to kill them."

Upon hearing this, Master Wen could only nod helplessly.
