The Emperor of Red Mansions: Many Children, Many Blessings, Opening Draft

Secondly, Lin Ruhai did not feel as cold as before.

Although these were only slight changes, they were hope and a good omen for Lin Ruhai.

Taihe Hall, the court…

"Your Majesty, I impeach General Xin Qiji of the Northern Expedition!

This Xin Qiji was cruel and wanton in slaughtering the people of Donghu. He was truly inhumane. Our Great Wu is a country of etiquette. It is important to be kind and polite!

How could such a cruel villain appear?"

"I second the motion. The dissatisfaction among the people is getting louder and louder!

If the General of the Northern Expedition is not severely punished, it may not be enough to appease the public anger!"

"Your Majesty, Xin Qiji's slaughter of ordinary Donghu people will inevitably anger Donghu, and then invade our Great Wu.

This will become a great war, and our Great Wu will suffer heavy losses.

I hope your Majesty will severely punish Xin Qiji, give Donghu an explanation, and avoid war between our Great Wu and Donghu."

"Your Majesty..."

At the beginning of the morning court, many ministers came out and directly impeached Xin Qiji.

Li Chenghan's face was as gloomy as water, and he never said a word while listening to the impeachment of these ministers.

Until the last minister finished speaking and there was no other sound in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Li Chenghan slowly spoke.

"Are you done?"

Li Chenghan's voice was cold, without any emotion at all.

And the officials felt a great pressure in their hearts when they heard Li Chenghan's voice.

However, all the officials did not speak, but quietly waited for Li Chenghan's next words.

"Since the time of Taizu, Donghu and Xiongnu have been in constant conflict with my Great Wu!

When they are short of food, they will come to my Great Wu to plunder. When my Great Wu has no food and the people are hungry, they will plunder my people for food."

"It was from the third year of Jian'an to the sixteenth year of Jian'an!

During this period, not to mention the Xiongnu, just Donghu killed more than hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, plundered my Great Wu's money, food, and burned countless houses of my people."

"Why did Donghu commit so many crimes against my Great Wu, but I didn't see any ministers say that Donghu was inhumane, and no one pitied the people of my Great Wu!

Now my Great Wu's heavenly soldiers have completely wiped out 30,000 bandits from Donghu, and have been fighting all the way to the heart of Donghu "You are slaughtering his Donghu people, and all the ministers are impeaching General Xin as if their parents have died?"

"Are you from my Great Wu or his Donghu people?

Are you enjoying the salary of my Great Wu, or are you supported by his Donghu people?"

"What do you mean my Great Wu emphasizes benevolence and etiquette! You say my Great Wu is a country of etiquette!

You are supported by tens of millions of people in my Great Wu, but have you ever talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality to the people of my Great Wu?"

"A country of etiquette, my people were slaughtered, plundered, and cooked and eaten as food.

The officials of my Great Wu court dared not even fart.

Is this the so-called country of etiquette?"

"A brave general appeared in my Great Wu, serving my Great WuWu washed away the shame, avenged the soldiers and people who died for our Great Wu, but you want him to die, and let him die with infamy and bad reputation!

Is this the country of etiquette in your mouth? "

"If this is the country of etiquette in your eyes, then I would rather not have it!"

"Because this is bullying, this is cowardice, it is an ungrateful wolf that can't be tamed, and it is moral degradation and inhumanity."

"Compared to being such a country of etiquette, I would rather be a tyrant who bears eternal infamy!

Because as a tyrant, at least I am not bound by your so-called moral etiquette, at least I can protect the lives and property of the people of my Great Wu, and let them live and work in peace and contentment, and give them a peaceful and prosperous world.

Instead of talking to them about benevolence and etiquette after they are slaughtered and plundered, and deceiving myself and boasting that I am a country of etiquette! ”

“I am the father and ruler of tens of millions of people in my Great Wu! I want tens of millions of people in my Great Wu to live a good life, not to treat my people as human beings, but to treat my enemies as relatives.”

“A country of etiquette, how can this be so ironic in your mouth?”

“What you said today is simply unworthy of being an official of my Great Wu, no, you are simply unworthy of being a human being.”

“You are said to be beasts who are traitors, and beasts will shake their heads and don’t want to be with you!”

“How can you say such words!”

“Wearing the official robes of my Great Wu and eating the salary I give you, I let you betray the enemy and treason in this court hall where national affairs are discussed?”

“Also, what do you say about the Donghu will be furious and will trigger an unprecedented war against my Great Wu!

The Donghu killed dozens of times more of my people than my Great Wu killed them.

Why didn't the Donghu fear my Great Wu's wrath and send troops to destroy them? "

"The Donghu dared to kill my Great Wu, and was not afraid of my Great Wu's revenge. That's because my Great Wu has you who only know how to exploit the people, bring disaster to the country and the people, and deceive yourself into thinking that you are a country of etiquette and the Celestial Empire, but in fact you are strong against the enemy, flattering and currying favor, and you wish to give everything to others! "

"And my Great Wu is afraid that the Donghu is the same!

After losing a battle, you are like a stray dog, and after winning a battle, you bark and bite my Great Wu's meritorious officials! "

"On weekdays, you say you are loyal to the emperor and love the people, but in fact you wish to suck the blood of the people and the country dry!

With you in my Great Wu, how can the people live and work in peace and happiness, and how can my Great Wu have a chance to revive? "

Seeing that no one responded, Li Chenghan did not remain silent, but cursed and humiliated the officials who impeached Xin Qiji.

This group of people is like this. When they bully their own people, it's like they have encountered the enemy who killed their father.

When they meet outsiders, they are simply the best interpretation of lapdogs.

When there are outsiders to be bullied by them, they will do their best to be bullied.

When there are no outsiders to be bullied by them, they wish to squeeze the bones of the people out.

On weekdays, they are full of benevolence and morality, but they shut up.

So many people in the Great Wu were slaughtered, but they didn't say a word. As officials appointed by the court, they didn't say anything about loyalty to the emperor and patriotism at that time.

When the country won the war, these guys felt that they were standing up again.

It was as if they were more powerful than the heroes who stepped on the heroes.

On weekdays, they shrink faster than anyone else when encountering things, and rush up in a swarm when they see others have made contributions.

For such people, Li Chenghan felt that killing them was not enough.

And such people are also the most disgusting. In terms of disgust, corrupt officials can't catch up.

Faced with Li Chenghan's insults, a group of eunuchs at the back of the palace wrote quickly!

The officials who impeached Xin Qiji were scolded by Li Chenghan one by one, either fearful, angry, unwilling, ashamed, or resentful.

But Su Zhi, Minister of Rites, Lin Ruhai, Li Shouzhong, Qin Ye and other people who truly cared about the world and were loyal to the emperor and loved the people only felt that Li Chenghan's scolding was refreshing and reasonable.
