The Retirement of the Demon Lord

The reports of several officials made hundreds of officials in the hall discuss.

The emperor was silent for a while, and there was only tiredness in his eyes.

The content of their report, he had already asked the factory master Wei Xingchao and the left prime minister Yang Shiqi to send it to the imperial study for him to review whenever there was new progress, and he followed up almost every step of the case. For the past few days, I have not slept for several days because of my son.

Li Jianbi's monstrous mistake cost him his life and also brought disaster to the country and the people. He just wanted to find out what caused Li Jianbi to go astray. Whoever wants to investigate thoroughly will only get a lot of crimes, which is beyond imagination.

Not to mention the fallen tree and the hozen scattered. He has only two sons as an emperor. Although he has deliberately suppressed the position of the prince in recent years, he is also a person who has come here and understands the dangers and dangers inside. Those who once stood on the opposite side of Li Jianbi's faction did not say that they fell into trouble. In order to draw a clear line, those who used to stand on Li Jianbi's side chased and beat Li Jianbi. Li Jianbi's old accounts were turned upside down, and it was this group of people who were the most active.

People from all walks of life even wrote down his sesame and mung bean trifles as thick evidence, which piled up in his royal study, making him unable to take a breath from the pain of losing a child.

"Who else has to report?"

The emperor recovered from Aiko's mischievous smile when she was a child, and asked in a deep voice.

"Report to the emperor." The Minister of Punishment came out again, knelt on the ground and asked to play, "The crimes of King Wu are too numerous to describe, but a week has passed, and still no explanation has been given to the people, and now there are complaints from the people..."

The emperor glanced at Yang Shiqi. Although Yang Shiqi was quite old, he knew a lot about the situation of facing up and down. If the emperor needed to find out, he still had to ask him often. He even visited Yang Shiqi's mansion in person late at night several times for national events, and stayed up all night discussing affairs in the prime minister's mansion, which shows how much the emperor still values ​​this old minister. Of course, it has also become one of the classic stories of the rotten girl Xiao Huangshu of the Emei School, which is ominous to say here.

Yang Shiqi's emperor was slightly worthy of the head, saying that the case had already spread all over the Central Plains, and it really had a great impact. After all, the Tea Merchants Association is a world event. King Wu turned the Tea Merchants Association into a purgatory on earth.

In his position, from the perspective of the court, if the tragedy of the tea merchants will always happen, Yang Shiqi hopes that Li Jianbi's conspiracy will succeed and not be pierced. In this way, the people thought it was a calamity of bandits, and their grievances would not escalate to the current regime, nor would it shake the prestige that the court had accumulated over the years.

"This case has come to light. I will now order the left prime minister Yang Shiqi to revise a letter, take back Li Jianbi's throne, and sue the world to comfort the people!" , who made this country belong to their family.

"Your Majesty, Li Jianbi's crimes are monstrous, but taking back the throne is not enough for the common people!"

Suddenly, the three white-haired, white-haired and white-bearded old men who looked a little older than Yang Shiqi stood up and knelt down with each other's hands. It was frightening to watch, for fear that one of them would not get up again after kneeling down accidentally. not coming.

"Master Yang, Master Zhou, and Taibao Wang! Why did the three kneel down? Didn't it have already been announced that the three of them were too old to kneel in the palace? Hurry up, please!"

These three ancestors are the head of the three princes. They are either the teacher of the emperor or the minister of the country when the emperor first became the emperor. Even if he became famous, he retired. Now there is no official official position, only a vacant position such as a scholar, and the status is also half. Not worse than Yang Shiqi.

The emperor quickly raised his hand and motioned the three to get up.

Li Mengyao and Wei Xingchao knew that the emperor was in a panic, and hurried up to support the three elders.

Who would have thought that the three ancestors were determined not to get up, and when they saw Wei Xingchao approaching, they yelled, "Go away! It's a matter of state for me to kneel down, how dare a mere **** be so troublesome!"

He scolded Wei Xingchao and backed away angrily, and if he didn't back down, he would definitely suffer a meal of old phlegm on his face.

The treatment Li Mengyao received was unusual, the emperor's favorite daughter was known to the world, and he even asked Mrs. Yang to be Li Mengyao's teacher. Several old people have also watched Li Mengyao grow up since childhood, and they love her as if they love their granddaughter. They all patted Li Mengyao's hand lightly and told her to go away. In today's national disaster, they won't get up unless they are resolved.

"What do you want from the three, you might as well say it face to face!" The emperor sighed and told Li Mengyao to back away. These three old ministers who were dedicated to the country were all stubborn, and if they didn't want to get up, no one would help them.

"Li Jianbi is stubborn, and now he has made a big mistake! If he just removes his throne and the punishment is too light, how can he convince the public!"

"Three means..."

"To parade through the streets, to be whipped before the market, and not stop for three days and three nights, before the common people can complain!"

When the emperor heard the words, his eyes widened. Although he was annoyed, he also knew that this moment would always come! His beloved son made too many mistakes, and it is not easy to fool him!

"Three, Yu Li, Bi'er paraded through the streets to show the public, and was punished for seven days and seven nights; Yu Qing, he was one of my only two sons, and now my two sons fought each other, one died and the other was injured, and the one alive was still alive. Waiting in the Dali Temple. You all watched Bi'er grow up, and you should understand the sadness of the deep responsibility that I also love, but I am both a king of a country and a father, and Bi'er has died. Some punishments, you still have to parade his corpse to the public to be whipped? When the floods at the foot of the Lotus Mountain recede, how do you explain to the queen mother and the queen! Tell them that their beloved grandson, Aier, not only died without a place to be buried, but also I was taken to the market to parade through the streets, and used to feed the goshawk to the wild dogs! You all understand that the love of flesh and blood is heart-wrenching! Isn't it enough that I have punished all that should be punished!"

Facing the former teachers, the emperor finally couldn't help but let go of the distinction between monarch and minister, like a disciple who failed an exam, roaring and complaining to his close teachers.

Li Mengyao bit her lower lip lightly, bowing her head and weeping.

She hated Li Jianbi very much, but she also didn't want to see the emperor get hurt by this prodigal.

The three old men were unmoved, their breaths choked, but they did not give in an inch.

They raised their slightly trembling hands, took off their crowns and placed them on the ground, bowed their heads and said in a high voice, "As the prince's grandfather or elders, we should have taught by example, but now Li Jianbi has gone astray without knowing it, we should all be guilty! The sinner is willing to parade the streets with Li Jianbi to show the public a grudge against the commoners!"

In the forefront of the hundred officials, the other thirty-odd old officials representing the three dynasties' meritorious deeds came out together to kneel on the ground, took off their crowns, and fell to the ground: "Our sinners, I would like to parade with Li Jianbi to show the public, and complain to the common people. !"

These old guys have already relinquished their official positions early, leaving only empty positions as the third public. But even if they were not in real power, they were still a formidable power in the court.

Seeing this group of old guys working hard, the Minister of Punishment was so frightened that he retreated into the queue.

Among the civil and military officials in the imperial palace, which one without a teacher or a teacher is kneeling in front of him? No matter how high your official position is, people used to bring it out! Even if these old guys come over and poke you in the nose~www.readwn.com~ you don't dare to reply! Not to mention that the traditional virtue of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao limits your attitude towards these old guys. Even if you look realistically, most of the descendants of others hold great power in the imperial court, and the roots are deep and complex, and it is enough for you to bow your head. Dodge aside.

Of course the emperor understood that if they did this, they would definitely be able to complain, and they were forcing him not to give him a way out. But as a father, I really don't want to see my son's body parading around in the street to accept the insults and saliva of the people, and then whip it into a mass of minced flesh. He is also a wise monarch, and he doesn't want to see the meritorious veterans of the court lose their reputation for the wrong things of their son.

At this time, I only felt that this dragon chair was not a dragon chair, but a hot iron plate, which was suffering. I don't know why so many people want to fight for this big **** seat. To sit on the throne, in addition to glory and wealth, there is also the burden of a country that comes with it. This position is not so easy to sit on.

Most of this group of old guys who are ranked third are civil servants who are not able to eat ancient times, and they become more stubborn when they get older. And people are concerned about the imperial court, so they can't cut them all out, right? This is similar to dissolving the imperial court directly.

Just when the emperor could do nothing and was about to make this painful decision, Wei Xingchao stood out tremblingly and quickly reported, "Your Majesty, I heard that King Wu's body was scarred when he was found..."

When he came out and interrupted at a critical moment, Wei Xingchao was very guilty. Before he finished speaking, he immediately returned to the queue, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at the eyes of the three elders.

The emperor is a wise man. He knew what Wei Xingchao meant as soon as he heard it. He was relieved that this Wei Xingchao was indeed his confidant!

"Who brought back the corpse at the scene!" The emperor slapped the handrail heavily and shouted quickly.
