Chapter 156 Speak for the scholars of the world!
Li Xin, wearing black armor, walked on the steps of Weiyang Palace, and his shadow was pulled by Chu Yang in the morning.
Following him were fifty neatly guards.
At this time, the defense forces in the inner city of the imperial city were only the last hundred inner guards in the Weiyang Palace, and almost all the others died at the hands of the Hanzhou army.
Li Xin took fifty personal guards and walked slowly into the Weiyang Palace.
Over the years, Li Xin has walked into the emperor's bedroom for countless times, and his feelings are different every time.
During the Chengde Dynasty, the Emperor's Pedestal Hall was not in the Weiyang Palace. He entered the Changle Palace twice, and each time he was walking on thin ice and was trembling. During the Taikang Dynasty, the Emperor's Pedestal Hall moved from the Changle Palace to the Weiyang Palace. Since then, Li Xin has often entered and exited the palace in front of him.
However, during the ten years of Taikang Dynasty, although Li Xin had a very high status and could enter and exit the palace at any time, when facing Emperor Taikang, he still had to abide by the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects and behaved in accordance with the rules and regulations.
Even in the Yuan Zhao Dynasty, Li Xin, as the imperial teacher, did not transcend the rules between the monarch and the ministers.
But this time... it's different.
Li Xin took great steps into the Weiyang Palace, holding his head up and his chest out.
He was so familiar with this palace that he was even more familiar with than the current emperor. He walked straight into the main hall of Weiyang Palace.
At this time, it was late autumn in the fifth year of Yuanzhao. The exact time was September 20th, and the sun shone brightly at the beginning of the Chen Dynasty.
Li Xin, wearing black armor, walked into the hall with his hands on his back.
At this time, most of the officials of the court were basically trapped in this hall, including the imperial court's great nine ministers, several prime ministers from the Shangshutai, as well as officials of all sizes in the six ministries.
Of course, there is also the emperor who sits on the throne.
The emperor sat quietly on the throne on the high place, without a trace of expression on his face.
The last one hundred people left in the inner guards, to be precise, should be the people from the Guards in the inner guards, who drew their own swords and stopped Li Xin.
General Li glanced at the soldiers of the Guards and Battalion in a quiet tone: "The three imperial guards have almost all been killed or injured. From Yong'anmen to Weiyang Palace, all checkpoints have been controlled by our Southwest Army. Now there are almost 20,000 Southwest Army in the Imperial City. At this time, there are more than 100 people and less than 100 people. There is no difference between me."
"Now you throw down the sword in your hands and remove your armor on the spot. I can let you out."
More than a hundred soldiers of the Guards battalions held the sword in their hands tightly, and none of them retreated.
People who can enter the Guards camp have their own kung fu skills and the most important thing is their loyalty to the emperor. Each of these more than 100 people is the elite among the elites. As long as the emperor says, they will not frown, and it is even more impossible for them to surrender at this time.
Li Xin's eyes turned cold and was about to wave his hand to give an order. He sat on the throne and kept his eyes closed, but finally slowly opened his glasses.
His voice was hoarse: "Everyone...retreat."
More than a hundred soldiers of the Guards, after hearing the emperor's order, were relieved in their last breath. They threw down the sword in their hands weakly, then took off the armor on their bodies, and left Weiyang Palace like walking corpses.
The emperor stood up from the throne, looked up at Li Xin, and tried to keep his voice calm.
"I thought this day wouldn't come so quickly..."
Because he had been a little respectful to Li Xin since he was a child, since Yuan Zhaochao stood completely opposite to Li Xin, His Majesty the Emperor often dreamed that his teacher had a knife and rushed into the imperial city and drove him off the throne.
More than once dreaming.
This is also the reason why this emperor made frequent mistakes in the past one or two years. He was born with a little fear of Li Xin. Later, he mistakenly attributed this fear to the head of the firearm, and then he thoughtfully got into the firearm and rarely asked about political affairs.
Li Xin took two steps forward, first glanced at the trembling civil and military officials in the hall, then looked up at the emperor, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "I thought that this day would not come so quickly."
Speaking of this, Li Xin paused and continued, "If Your Majesty was smart enough, maybe this day would never have been there."
Emperor Yuan Zhao laughed at himself: "The teacher means that in the first year of Yuan Zhao, I will let you depose the four auxiliary ministers?"
"At that time, I was still young, and the four assistant ministers left the court. You are the teacher alone in the capital. In that case, today's affairs were only five years ahead of schedule."
General Li showed a bright smile on his face.
"At this time, I told Your Majesty that five years ago, I still wanted to be a marquis of Taiping in the Great Jin court. Most of them would not believe it, either Your Majesty or the Dukes in the court."
"But it doesn't matter."
The smile on Li Xin's face was restrained and his tone became much colder: "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
After saying this, General Li pulled out his blue sword from his waist and said calmly: "At this time, no one should jump out and reason with me?"
In the main hall of Weiyang Palace, no one dared to jump out and stand opposite Li Xin when facing the murderous Li Xin.
Li Xin nodded with satisfaction, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Very good. It seems that you are all heroes who know the times. No wonder they can hold a high position in the court."
At this time, most officials who were standing in the Weiyang Palace Hall, who were above the fifth rank, were mostly officials of the third rank. Few of them were really honest in climbing to this height in the court.
Not many people would choose to jump out at this time and use their bodies to try the long sword in General Li’s hand. Is it sharp or not?
In the Weiyang Palace, a needle can be heard.
Li Xin smiled and was about to speak.
A faint sigh came from the civil servants' queue.
An old man walked out of the civil servant. The old man had white hair and beard. He walked up to Li Xin with a crutch and looked up at Li Xin.
"I want to reason with Marquis Li."
Li Xin frowned slightly and said, "I have no intention of making things difficult for the old prime minister. The old prime minister can go out of Beijing and return home now. Li can guarantee that no one will hurt the old prime minister at all."
"Thank you for your kindness, Marquis Li."
The old Gong Yang Shu bowed to Li Xin and slowly spoke: "But at this time, I have to talk to Mr. Li to reason."
His voice was old, but his eyes were firm.
"What's wrong with Mr. Li's attack on the capital?"
Li Xin narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Since the Yuan Zhao Dynasty, disasters have occurred everywhere, people are living in poverty, and the southern border is severely drought, and people are hanging upside down. The northern border is full of war, and the imperial court sits silent."
"It is already known to everyone in the world that the emperor has lost his virtue."
Gong Yang Shu nodded and said, "Marty Li means that you are launching troops to invade the capital to change the emperor."
General Li nodded: "Not bad."
The old prime minister coughed twice, and his old voice was extremely firm.
"Since ancient times, the emperor has lost his morality, and his ministers should be loyal and direct advice. I have been in charge of the Shangshutai for many years. For more than ten years, the Shangshutai did not see Mr. Li’s half of the advice, but now he directly raised military advice and threatened to change the emperor. What is the reason?"
The old man's voice was heavy.
"It is true that the current situation in the capital is under the control of Mr. Li. When I say this, Mr. Li may ignore it, or even listen directly."
"But that doesn't matter."
Gong Yangshu stepped forward and took a deep breath: "Whether you listen or not, you must have a scholar standing up today and say something to Mr. Li."
"We can't let people all over the world feel that scholars are dead."
He looked up at Li Xin and cursed at Li Xin in his greatest voice.
"The three generations of your Li family are all thieves who have evil intentions!"
"And you, Marquis Li, have raised your troops to rebel and privately declared the destruction of the emperor in the name of purging the king. This is actually the first rebel in the Jin Dynasty in a hundred years!"
After saying this with all his strength, the old man took several breaths before his breathing was barely smooth. He walked to Li Xin, closed his eyes high and said, "I have finished speaking, Marquis Li will do it."
This old man, who is nearly eighty years old, is passionate.
The civil servants in the Weiyang Palace all blushed, and no one dared to raise their heads.
Li Xin looked at Gong Yang Shu and sighed: "The prime minister of Chengde Dynasty really has a unique spirit."
He raised the Aokiji sword in his hand and put it on Yang Shu's shoulder.
"Whether the old prime minister is seeking death for scholars all over the world, or for his future reputation, I seem to have agreed."
The extremely sharp Aokiji sword in his hand, even though it was just gently placed on Yang Shu's neck, a clear blood mark slowly emerged.
General Li smiled and looked at Gong Yang Shu.
