Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-Eighth: The Grand Concert in the Golden Palace (2)

The Golden Palace is very quiet. In addition to the surprising eyes, it also contains some appreciation. These appreciation comes from the Censorate and the backbone of this group of scholars all over the world. Even the Minister of Justice also has appreciation in the eyes of the Minister of Justice.

The Minister of Justice is Di Yun, who is about the same age as Ma Dongyang, not very tall. His skin is a little dark, his cheeks are thin, his cheekbones are slightly tall, and he has a beard. He looked at Gu Qingci and said, "Mr. Gu, but there is no actual evidence that you said, and only Ma Dongyang confessed his guilt."

Gu Qingci smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Di, you need evidence, so there are certainly some officials."

As he said that, Gu Qingci asked the emperor for instructions: "Your Majesty, please let me know how to bring witnesses to the temple, how about it?"

Emperor Xia frowned and said, "Gu Qing's family, let's leave this matter to the Ministry of Justice. They will naturally give you justice and give the soldiers an explanation. What do you think?"

Although Emperor Xia looked very plain and seemed to ask, none of the people present were fools. It could be seen that Emperor Xia meant to let Gu Qingci let go and stop at the right time. This matter ended here.

However, what surprised everyone was that Gu Qingci bowed and said loudly: "Your Majesty, your move is inappropriate. Since the founding of the State of Xia, you have never laid off the evidence. Your Majesty wants to shelter those who commit crimes? In my Daxia law, I am a minister. I cannot see that Your Majesty has made mistakes and will not stop him. Therefore, Your Majesty's move is inappropriate, and I do not agree!"

Gu Qingci's voice was not very loud, but it was extremely sonorous. It was very clear in the empty hall. This passage made everyone hear it clearly and reached everyone's ears.

Emperor Xia still had a expressionless face and said slowly: "Gu Aiqing, I think it's inappropriate for you to do this. This is the Golden Palace. If you want to go to the Ministry of Justice for the judgment of the case..."

"His Majesty!"

At this moment, a cabinet master in the Censorate suddenly stood up. He looked a little hunched, but was extremely energetic, and was so skinny that he felt standing still. He said, "I think your majesty is not right. Since the founding of the Great Xia Kingdom, how have I stopped proclaiming the case because it is the Golden Palace? Taizu once made a ancestral teaching. The prince broke the law and was guilty of the common people. The old minister thinks that Lord Gu is right. Your Majesty is deliberately covering up, and I don't agree!"

"Yes," another official from the Censorate also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the former emperor had personally tried his uncle in the Golden Palace for three days and three nights. Do you still have to take advantage of the world's ruling and act arbitrary? This is not a wise ruler, and the ministers disagree."

After this, the people from the Censorate stood up one by one. Later, several ministers of the Censorate began to take turns to fight, each of whom began to punish Emperor Xia, and his lips were verbally angrily. The more he spoke, the more excited he became. Later, the actions of the Xia State became a manifestation of a destruction of the country and a sign of a foolish monarch.

"Your Majesty, if you insist on doing this, I will stay in this Golden Palace today, or you will directly kill me. Otherwise, if you don't handle it well today, you will not want to leave this Golden Palace."

“…”

Gu Qingci looked at Emperor Xia, whose face had turned pale, and was secretly amazed in his heart. This is the representative of scholars in Xia Kingdom. He had long heard of the high status of scholars in Xia Kingdom and had also heard many legends about the Censorate. Today, he realized that these are all cruel people!

Moreover, for some reason, Gu Qingci always had a feeling that the people in the Censorate seemed to like to scold the emperor very much. The more they scolded, the more they became more energetic. They seemed to be staring at Emperor Xia, just to wait for Emperor Xia to make a mistake, and they rushed forward.

Seeing these people rushing to the top, the Xia Emperor now looked like a piece of fragrant meat in their eyes, and everyone had to take a few bites.

"Okay, I know."

Emperor Xia was really helpless. The people of the Censorate have been a special department since the founding of the Xia Kingdom, specializing in supervising the emperor. Although there are no emperors in history who are not upset, the Censorate has always existed.

Seeing Emperor Xia surrender, Gu Qingci not only lamented the combat effectiveness of the Censorate, but also lamented the national policy of the Xia Kingdom. No wonder several generations of emperors changed after the founding of the country for a hundred years, and there were also emperors with very weak abilities in the middle. For example, the late emperor was an emperor with little ability. However, the Xia Kingdom was still thriving and developing better and better.

The reason for correcting the problem is national policy.

In Xia Kingdom, the emperor could not be a single ruler. The ministers below were the Censorate and many truly backbone literati. If the emperor did something wrong, they would stand up immediately. They dared to scold the emperor and dared to let the emperor fail to come to Taiwan, so that the emperor could take back his life.

In this Xia Kingdom, there is no emperor who speaks. If you are wrong here, you will be wrong and will not change because you are the emperor.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingci couldn't help but sigh. No wonder Mr. Wuque has such a high status in the hearts of scholars, because Mr. Wuque is their real backstage, a backstage who dares to challenge the emperor. Even if the current emperor Tang Peiyan is ambitious, as long as Mr. Wuque is in one day, scholars all over the world will have spiritual leaders.

Seeing Emperor Xia give in, several officials from the Censorate retreated with satisfaction. They all immediately shut up, as if they were not them who were just urging the sky and the earth to the air.

"Gu Qing's family, tell me." Emperor Xia said.

Gu Qingci was stunned for a moment before he realized that the Censorate had finished the work. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, when I entered the palace, I met a great guard Wu Kui. He was about to enter the palace to apologize. He was a witness!"

Ma Dongyang, who was still kneeling on the ground, his pale face turned pale, and he sighed slowly, while Ma Zhibai shook his whole body, looked at his father, stood up slowly, looked at Gu Qingci, and said, "Brother Gu, do you really want to kill my father?"

Gu Qingci looked at Ma Zhibai with a complicated mood, but he was very determined and said, "Brother Ma, I, Gu Qingci, is not a saint, I am just an ordinary person. For my friends and so many comrades, I came to the capital to seek justice. For you, I was willing to make a big deal out of things, but what did your father do by himself? He captured my family, and from the moment I knew, he and I must have a settlement. In addition, there is no right or wrong between us, and there is no one who is sorry for whom, but it is just a blaming that the world is impermanent!"

Ma Zhibai looked at Gu Qingci, unable to say a word, and he collapsed on the ground in depressed manner. No one could blame Gu Qingci? Gu Qingci was forced to resist from beginning to end. Do you blame him for being cruel now? It is not him who is really cruel? But is Ma Dongyang blamed? Ma Zhibai knew that this was also forced to bet for his family and for his son!

In the Golden Palace, it was very quiet, and only the voice of a eunuch sounded: "Xuan, Wukui meet you!"
