At noon, the road drum at the royal palace gate was once again beaten, and the drum sound echoed in the royal palace where only the high tents were left. It not only shocked the birds and beasts in the parks and the gardens to make them manialess, but also woke up the sleeping concubine Zhao who was crying every day. As the queen mother, she had to hurry to the bed. What is strange is that Ling Yin Chengjie had not arrived.

"Who beats the drum? What's the matter?" Under the vicious sun, Concubine Zhao, who had climbed the stairs and went to the hall to see the imperial court, had to ask in person.

"Who beats the drum? What's the matter?" The guru retelled Concubine Zhao's words and spread to the Lumen not far away.

"Reported to the Empress Dowager, the honored scholars were innocent and killed the county officials. The murderers were filled with the city and blood flowed away!" Zuo Yinmeng Zhengqin, the priest of the division school, Kong Qian, the nationality of Zou County, and Wei Di, the nationality of Ji County, bowed in unison. Behind them were nearly a thousand teachers and schools in black, holding a letter of view of the Japanese in their hands.

The execution of county officials and treacherous officials is nationwide, and the executors are Yushi and the soldiers commanded by their Yushi. Some counties and towns are far away and have not been known yet, and some counties are close to each other. The news spread to Yingdu the next morning. The county officials were imprisoned, and the treacherous ministers had long heard of it, but they had never known whether to move or kill them. Today, the news of all slaughter was heard.

Most of the ministers were surnamed Mi, and the killing of county officials was unpardoned. Only Zuo Yin Meng Zhengqin, ministers from Lu, nationals from various counties and scholars from the division schools were heartbroken when they heard the news. In particular, most of the scholars from the division schools were filled with righteous indignation. They were the first to go to Zuo Yin's mansion to submit a letter of view of the Japanese. Kong Qian was studying at the Zuo Yin's mansion at this time, Meng Zhao and others immediately asked the prefect Meng Zhengqin to go to the palace to beat drums and complain about their grievances.

The previous time the road drum was broken or the money was used to buy a store. This time the road drum was beaten, but Yu Shi killed the official, and the blood flowed away. Zhao Fei, who was not familiar with government affairs, couldn't believe her ears when she heard this. She asked blankly: "Why did Yu Shi kill the county officials?"

"Reported to the Empress Dowager, I don't know." Meng Zhengqin said indignantly, "Since the Chu State has had many honorary scholars, the emperor has rarely killed them indiscriminately. Now all the officials in all counties and counties are slaughtered. This should be the order of the Lingyin Mansion. Please ask the Empress Dowager to summon the Lingyin to ask the heirs to find out the truth."

"Please ask the Queen Mother to summon the imperial court to ask the truth." After Meng Zhengqin said that, nearly a thousand scholars from the audience shouted, and their voices shook the palace.

"Mr. Yin, Meng Zhengqin and others beat the road drums." On the right side of the Grand Sima Mansion, Yin Chengjie, who was sitting in the seat, was sleeping. Before he issued the massacre order, he knew what consequences would be, but he was not afraid, but he felt a sense of revenge.

He certainly knew what county officials and treacherous people were. This was the king who weakened the power to suppress the nobles. If there were no county officials, how could the king put the nobles' fiefs under the jurisdiction of the royal court? When King Zhuang suppressed the Ruoao family, in addition to deliberately instigating the Ruoao family to fight with the Ruoao family in the court, he also sent a large number of county officials to the county officials under the jurisdiction of Ruoao family under the order of the king, and at the same time bribed the treacherous people to inquire about the news within the Ruoao family. He did not speak for three years, and did not do anything for three years.

Now, there have been several turmoils in the country, and the king finally allowed the restoration of the old system. Since the old system was restored, all the county officials and treacherous people would be killed. Later, under the rule of the king, there were only one city or several cities in Yingdu, and all counties and towns outside Yingdu were under the jurisdiction of the nobles. The king was no longer the king of the Zhou people, but the Ao of the Chu people. The state affairs were summoned to discuss the matters and towns; the government orders were implemented by the county and town licensors; the tax was no longer handed over to the Yingdu Grand Mansion, but to the county and towns to the royal court; the imperial court was approved by the king, and the county and towns were elected by the number of soldiers... This was the Chu State before King Wu established a county, and this was also the real Chu State!

Cheng Jie's eyelids were sliding, and he had no sleepiness. As he thought about it, his breathing became even more rapid.

"Duke Yin, the Empress Dowager urgently summoned Duke Xi to his main ward." Cheng Mo retreated after reporting just now. Now that the envoy is here in the summoning festival, he has to come and bow again.

"Empress Dowager?" Cheng Jie pursed his lips, "The king is not in the palace, why should the queen summon me? This is Zhao State? This is Qi State? This is Qin State?" Cheng Jie asked the three kingdoms again, and these three kingdoms were once the hens and the empress dowager was laughed at by the people of Chu.

"Mr. Yin..." Cheng Mo knew Cheng Jie's temper. He just felt that this matter should be calm due to the rumor of the complainant.

"Tell me that the Queen Mother, I am busy with military affairs and have no time to go to the main bed." Cheng Jie yawned, waved his sleeves and sent Cheng Mo. He sent Cheng Mo, and Cheng Mo sent the envoy.

He summoned each other to the three verses but did not arrive. The envoy was discouraged and returned to his bedroom to tell him. Before he finished speaking, Meng Zhao cursed first: "It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable. The emperor despised the queen mother and was extremely rude. I asked the queen mother to go to the imperial concubine for punishment."

"I ask the Empress Dowager to go to the imperial court to question the crime." After Meng Zhao said that, the rest of the people immediately agreed, and the soldiers in the audience also responded loudly.

"Go to the Lingyin Mansion!" Concubine Zhao was not a timid person. The letter of view of Japan submitted by Meng Zhengqin and others was extremely shocking. All the county officials in counties and towns across the country were ordered to be killed by the Lingyin. How can their son govern the country in the future? Since the Lingyin was not summoned, she would go to the Lingyin Mansion in person to find out the truth.

There was a bedroom inside the gate, and there was a court outside. Surrounded by ministers and scholars, Concubine Zhao rushed to Lingyin's mansion. Unexpectedly, the Lingyin's mansion had already set up a guard. Rows of armored soldiers stood with spears, surrounding the gate of the mansion. Cheng Yu, who was eloquent, stood there. When he saw Concubine Zhao, he bowed and said, "Please ask the Empress Dowager to atone for his sins. Lingyin is busy with military affairs and cannot meet."

"What kind of military affairs are so busy?" Concubine Zhao had long been unhappy, "Please come out!"

"Report to the Empress Dowager, the Yin Zheng is busy with military affairs. After handling the military, he must go to Ruoying Palace to apologize." Cheng Yu smiled bitterly. He did not expect Concubine Zhao to come back.

"The monk was killed without guilt and killed people in the city," Zhao Fei picked up the letter of sighting from the minister, "Is this the order of the emperor?"

"I don't know about the Empress Dowager." Cheng Yu said again, he really didn't know what the head of the family was doing.

"Empress Dowager, if it were not ordered by the Lingyin, how dare the Master Yu kill people like this?" Meng Zhao said again, "I ask the Empress Dowager to arrest Lingyin to ask him for his crime."

"Empress Dowager, this order must be the subject of the imperial court." Wei Di also said quickly, "The small town of Quyang alone killed more than a hundred people, and there should be a thousand people in the big county. If this person is not killed, how can the Great Chu conquer the world? How can the people be loyal to the king?"

Quyang is not far east of Yingdu. If Quyang killed more than a hundred people, how many people were killed in the country? Concubine Zhao's heart trembled and she was almost bleeding. These husbands did not send county soldiers to serve the king before, but now they have killed all the county officials in various counties and counties. Every time they want to kill Jing'er. Thinking of their murderous sons again and again, and thinking of their forcing their son to meet the fake alliance of the Qin people, Concubine Zhao couldn't help but shout: "Take the order to the emperor."

"Empress Dowager?!" Meng Zhengqin was shocked when he heard this, but he was immediately stopped by Meng Zhao and Wei Di.

"Guardian, take the order imperial court!" Seeing that the guards standing with their spears were still moving, Concubine Zhao shouted again.

"Report to the Empress Dowager," Cheng Yu still had no choice but to smile bitterly, "After Ling Yin handled military affairs, he will go to Ruoying Palace to apologize to the Empress Dowager."

"Why don't you obey my order?" Zhao Fei did not look at Cheng Yu, but looked at the soldiers outside Lingyin's mansion.

"Report to the Empress Dowager," Cheng Yu had to tell him again: "This is a county soldier in Xi County and will not be ordered by the king."

"It's unreasonable! This is the soldier of Chu State, how can he not be ordered by the Queen Mother?" Meng Zhao shouted again indignation. "Please ask the Queen Mother to summon the sanitation and take the order to question him."

"Please ask the Queen Mother to summon the sanitation and take the Order to ask for his crime." Several times of cooperation, every time Meng Zhao said, the scholars would echo. At first, they were still a little afraid of breaking into the palace. Now with the support of the Queen Mother, they were no longer afraid. The shouts of "take the Order to ask for his crime" shocked the palace.

"Who dares!" Cheng Jie's voice came from another direction. Hearing the words, the scholars immediately opened a road. Cheng Jie, wearing Xuanduan and Xuanyi, walked quickly. Cheng Mo followed him, and several Xi County soldiers were also asked for.

"I have met the Queen Mother." Cheng Jie had to bow to Concubine Zhao, "I am handling military affairs. The general defeated the Qin army in Xieyi. The king should be worry-free. Please ask the Queen Mother to return to the palace, and I will then arrive..."

"Cheng Jie, is it your life to kill the county officials?" Zhao Fei was instantly lost when she heard that the king was doomed Wuyou. Meng Zhao and Wei Di held up their high and asked, and they wanted to eat Cheng Jie's name.

"How can you know about the military and national affairs?" Cheng Jie snorted, not despising his answer at all.

"Dare you ask the Lingyin why he was executed without guilt? Is there no king's law in Chu?" Meng Zhengqin stopped the excited two people and asked in person.

"King Fa?" Cheng Jie knew Meng Zhengqin, and he smiled and said, "I really don't want Wang Fa in the future. I am already drafting an order. From next month, the county's defeated officials will be withdrawn."

"You want to remove all the defeats in the Si?!" Meng Zhengqin stared at Cheng Jie, thinking that he was crazy.

"Yes." Cheng Jie still smiled, smiling victoriously. "Meng Qing will be in Yingdu from now on, and there will be no more defeats outside the capital."

"Then how to investigate the case? How to punish the murderer? How to govern the country?" Meng Zhengqin was already roaring.

"This is nothing to do with you." Cheng Jie answered briefly and ignored Meng Zhengqin. He said to Zhao Fei who had come back to his senses: "Our army has attacked Jiyi to rescue the king. Shu Chen is rude and ask the Queen Mother to return to the palace."

"If the emperor is like this, I am not afraid of the king asking for punishment after returning to the palace..." Concubine Zhao is no longer as angry as before, but before she finished speaking, a burst of rapid footsteps came from behind her. Hundreds of sanitation rushed over, and the leader shouted: "Save the Queen Mother quickly, save the Queen Mother quickly!"

The footsteps were already shocking. Cheng Jie's pupils shrank and he quickly retreated behind the soldiers. Then he shouted: "What does the Queen Mother mean?"

Before the sanitation arrived, Zhao Fei was confused. The leader of the team broke through the crowd and saw that Zhao Fei was safe and sound, and he bowed and said, "A scholar told me that the emperor wanted to be unfavorable to the Empress Dowager..."

"Absurd!" Cheng Jie was angry. He looked at all the court officials around Concubine Zhao and cursed: "It's extremely shameless!"

"Who told me?" Concubine Zhao also noticed something wrong and asked.
