After hearing what he said, Liu Yu laughed angry and cursed: "I should give you a few more kicks. I wish I could kick you so much!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone present was stunned. Why did Emperor Liu Yu, who was the first to curse the third prince who was really rebellious, but to curse the seventh prince who was born by Concubine Sun, and he wanted to kick the rebellious son to death? Could it be that the seventh prince also participated in the rebellion? It shouldn't be.

Everyone didn't understand, but Fa Zheng was bound to understand very well, and he had even thought of all the causes and consequences.

Fa Zheng only sighed. He still underestimated that when today Zi could seize the city and snatch the Yellow Turbans, wipe out the princes, reunify the world, and then attack the Hu Hu, blitzed the Xianbei tribes, open the imperial examinations and select officials, and dig the Grand Canals of the North and South. All of them were great achievements. Today Zi actually knew everything, and he mastered their every move from the beginning, but he was tolerated and did not send it, and in the end he gave them a fatal blow.

Liu Yu sneered and continued to scold the seventh prince and said, "Why, these thieves first came to you, not the third brother. Although you refused and did not participate, you did not report this matter to me as soon as possible. I'm afraid you are not moved, but you just don't like them, right?"

The seventh prince was born by Sun Shangxiang, and Sun Shangxiang and Zhen Luo were both one of Liu Yu's first second wives. Although after Liu Yu became emperor, she did not receive the title of imperial concubine like Zhen Luo, she was also an imperial concubine. In terms of status and status, the seventh prince she gave was theoretically inferior to the eldest son and the fourth son of Zhen Luo. At the same time, her talent was only slightly inferior to the eldest son, and she was also respectful to the virtuous and noble, and she was quite famous for her virtuous.

The aristocratic families first came to the Seventh Prince. After the Seventh Prince refused, they chose the third prince, who was not talented and had stains in his bloodline, but because of this, they were far better controlled than the Seventh Prince.

Faced with Liu Yu's inquiry, the seventh prince did not deny it all, and directly admitted part of it: "Yes, my son is indeed a little moved. My mother and queen have no son, and my father has no legitimate position. My son said he was not moved at all. Is my father trusting me? But my son did not dare to rebel against my father and asked for the throne to be approved by my father, rather than relying on this great deed."

Of course, Liu Yu would not believe him completely, and just hummed: "You dare not rebel against me, dare not do evil things, but never told me privately about this matter. I don't think you are not fighting the abacus of the fisherman who is fighting against the snipe and clam, do you expect the rebellion of the army to fail, but you'd better kill the boss and a few older than you, and you'd better kill me, and you'll come out to get a bargain? It's such a good abacus!"

Such political operations are in line with the style of the Sun family. It is said that the nephew is like an uncle, and the seventh prince's political awareness and temperament are somewhat comparable to Sun Quan. It is no wonder that among Liu Yu's ten princes, his talents are only slightly inferior to the eldest son Liu Rui, but far better than other princes.

Hearing Liu Yu's opinion, the Seventh Prince was frightened to deny it. He was definitely not hoping that the anti-army would kill several brothers and his father. He had never had such an idea.

Liu Yu had a conclusion in his mind whether he had such an idea and was unwilling to debate too much. He just said, "I think you have never really participated in such a traitorous matter. I will not deal with you today, but it is not your turn to get involved in the affairs behind me."

This is a direct negation of the possibility of the Seventh Prince's succession in the future.

The Seventh Prince could hear what Liu Yu meant, and his face turned pale and his expression was decadent.

Liu Yu stopped looking at Lao Qi, but turned to stare at Lao San.

The third prince was so scared that he was limp and begging for mercy. Liu Yu even doubted whether he was his son or not, and he was even more displeased.

Finally, Liu Yu sighed. Although he was extremely heartbroken and angry in the face of such a rebellious thing, he was a father and son after all. The so-called tiger poison did not eat his son. He did not think of directly killing the third child. He only ordered to be deposed as a commoner and banned in his original prince's mansion. He could not leave until he died. Yue Manlun, one of his mother, had no choice but to teach his children and lived in a quiet palace.

The seventh prince was concluded, the third prince was dealt with, and the order was followed by the civil and military officials such as Fa Zheng who participated in the rebellion and forced the palace.

Speaking of which, Liu Yu was not surprised from the beginning, but felt that this rebellion led by the aristocratic family forces was inevitable.

Liu Yu abolished the recommendation of an official and changed it to a three-year imperial examination and elected an official. He also strictly established a tax policy for placing a stake in a mu. In addition, the overflow of books brought about by paper and movable type printing further disrupted the monopoly of knowledge and teaching of aristocratic families.

The decline of the gentry family became a general trend and was difficult to reverse. Under such a general trend, some gentry families were desperate and appointed, and naturally some gentry felt that there was still hope, that is, to support the new emperor to succeed to the throne, let the new emperor abolish the imperial examinations, spread the imperial examinations, and collect papermaking and movable type printing to monopolize the aristocratic family and restore all the original privileges of the gentry family.

Out of such gambling, this rebellion forced the palace.

In this rebellion, Liu Yu lost a son, but also eliminated the last resistance forces of the aristocratic family against the new policies such as the imperial examination.

Liu Yu's participation in calligraphy in the Ministry of Justice was the most unexpected thing.

Originally, as Liu Yu thought, as a smart person who was only slightly inferior to Guo Jia and Liu Ye, Fa Zheng should understand that the level of forced rebellion at this level is extremely successful and should not participate. But Fa Zheng still participated, which indicates that his Fa clan will be destroyed along with other participating aristocratic families.

If you think about it carefully, it is actually not particularly strange that Fa Zheng participates.

After all, the Fa clan where Fa Zheng is located is one of the largest gentry families in Shu County, Yizhou. Almost all the children of the gentry family put the interests of the family at the highest level. Fa Zheng seems to be no exception. Other gentry families are unwilling to decline and want to make a last try. Fa Zheng naturally has such an idea. Whether Fa Zheng is forced to participate in the family or participate independently or voluntarily, it is not so important now. The most important thing is that since you have participated, you must accept the consequences of failure.

After three days of interrogation, Liu Yu made the final decision and issued an order to confiscate the main culprits of Fa Zheng and others as the leader of the family to destroy the clan. The other accomplices were beheaded. The family was exiled to the two counties and Jilin. They were not allowed to leave the two counties and participate in the imperial examination within the five generations.

This forced rebellion involved tens of thousands of people, and more than 30 families of gentry were raided and exiled or exiled. Thousands of people were beheaded. Blood flowed into a river of Caishikou in Chang'an, and about tens of thousands of people were exiled.

The exile team of tens of thousands of people stretched for dozens of miles. Even after seven or eight days, the entire Chang'an City was still shrouded in terror, for fear that if you accidentally get involved, it will create a depressing atmosphere.

Until the good news came from the northern grassland, Liu Yu laughed loudly and looked happy, as if he had wiped out his gloomy face because of the rebellion and forced the palace.

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone tacitly turned their attention to the northern grasslands. The depressing atmosphere inside and outside Chang'an City was relaxed, and the rebellion and forced the palace were over.
