Chapter 73: The Art of the Weak(1/2)

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I wonder what crime I have committed?"

Zheng Ge cried directly to the emperor.

"I don't know what the crime is. It's very good. Then you go and defend it to the King of Hell."

"Pull him down and behead him in public."

When the emperor was angry, he laid down millions of corpses and bled for thousands of miles.

Everyone broke out in cold sweat. They had never seen His Majesty so angry.

What exactly did Xie Ji show to His Majesty?

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, spare your life. Your Majesty, I don't know where I offended Long Yan. Your Majesty, can you let me die?"

Zheng Ge is really a little confused. Even if he is embezzling and accepting bribes, it will not be like this?

What on earth did Xie Ji show to His Majesty? Could it be that he was fabricating the facts?

That's right, Zheng Ge felt more and more that even if Xie Ji was fabricating facts, he was the prime minister, so he naturally knew what His Majesty hated.

Therefore, they are fabricating facts to eliminate dissidents.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is framing me. The Prime Minister is very familiar with fabricating facts. Your Majesty, don't believe the Prime Minister's words. I don't know what crime I have committed. I am unwilling to accept it!"

Zheng Ge almost burst into tears.

The emperor looked at the evidence in his hand and thought about the fact that every time Zhao Yi came to visit Zheng Ge, he used national affairs to support me, and he felt more and more that this evidence was true.

I still want to make excuses, but there is no way.

"Pull it down."

The emperor said with a dark face.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't be like this. It's not the way of a wise king! I won't obey you, I won't obey you!"

Zheng Ge shouted as he was dragged out, but the emperor still didn't move at all.

"Your Majesty." The advisor to the Minister of Justice stood up and wanted to explain. This must be too tragic.

A man who was a doctor was actually executed like this without being convicted by the Ministry of Punishment.

I feel that his position as Minister is just a decoration. Not only does His Majesty kill people at will, but even the Prime Minister kills people he dislikes without going through the Ministry of Punishment at all.

So, what is the significance of his being the Minister of Punishment?

It's really frustrating just to deal with some small and medium-sized cases.

"you shut up."

The emperor was in a bad mood. Anyone who dared to stop him from killing Zheng Ge was his enemy.

The consultant shut up and said nothing more. He looked a little downcast.

The other ministers looked at it and thought, stop struggling, we are all the same, we are all just decorations.

You're not alone in this either.

we are the same.

Just as miserable, just as a decoration.

It's just that you are worse off.

But now no one dares to say a word, and they don't know if they will be used as a punching bag if they say it.

Xie Ji had known this outcome for a long time, so he closed his eyes and calmed down, not at all trembling like those ministers.

A while passed.

The emperor broke the silence: "Continue the discussion."

The emperor finished speaking, but no one spoke. Who dares to speak now? What if he is accidentally implicated?

Xie Ji looked at Chen Jian with his eyes and signaled that you can start expressing yourself.

Chen Jian understood what Xie Ji meant.

"Your Majesty, I have this memorial."

"explain."

"Your Majesty, I am impeaching the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue to indulge his subordinates, create false accounts, embezzle the national treasury, become corrupt, accept bribes, form cliques for personal gain... and collude with Cheng Guo Gong Zhao Yi to plot rebellion."

"There were actually seventy officials who conspired with He Yan. Among these seventy people, there were actually ten officials of fifth rank or above, nearly twenty officials of seventh rank or above, and seventy officials of seventh rank or lower."

"Your Majesty, they secretly intend to rebel and form cliques for personal gain. I am worried about your Majesty. I hope your Majesty can understand clearly."

Damn it!

This time it’s a big one.

He Yan almost fainted when he heard the word "rebellion". "Rebellion", what kind of rebellion are they planning? They don't even have an army, what kind of rebellion are they planning?

"Chen Jian, you are farting. Whoever saw that I was treason, come up with evidence. Your Majesty, the person in this court who is least likely to be treason is me. Your Majesty, don't listen to Chen Jian's farts."

He Yan is in a hurry and plots rebellion. What kind of rebellion can he plot? Even if he has the heart, he doesn't have the guts.

Even if you have the courage, you don’t have the ability!

What kind of rebellion can he seek?

If there is only one person in the court who can rebel, and that is Xie Ji, why don't you tell Xie Ji to rebel?

"Your Majesty, He Yan and Zhao Yi drank together before and told the truth after drinking. After they were drunk, they cursed Your Majesty and said that Your Majesty is really not a wise king. It would be better if someone else replaced him. That's probably what he meant."

Chen Jian didn't know why Xie Ji asked him to mention Zhao Yi specifically?

Isn’t Zhao Yi just a duke with no real power? Why mention him?

Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi again.

I have to kill this person, damn Zhao Yi.

Your Majesty heard that Zhao Yi looked at He Yan very unkindly, and He Yan was frightened by what he saw.

He naturally knew that He Yan was not capable of treason, but he was not happy with him being with Zhao Yimou.

"Your Majesty, he has falsely accused me. Please investigate and clear my name."

He Yan didn't know what he had done to offend Xie Ji?

Why target him like that?

"Consultant, go check it out."

The emperor finally spoke.

When the consultant heard this, he almost shed tears.

Your Majesty finally thought of him, and his position as Minister of Punishment finally came in handy.

So touching!

He was finally useful.

It's no longer a decoration.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. No, I will obey the order and will enforce the law impartially and impartially."

The advisor was a little grateful to the emperor, which made other people unhappy.

The consultant looked at the other ministers and raised the corners of his mouth.

Now we are different, we are not from the same place.

Chen Jian ignored the consultant's words, be careful, lest you suffer too.

If the Prime Minister hadn't just asked me to impeach He Yan, I would have impeached you as well, just to see if you are still arrogant.

The consultant looked at He Yan's overwhelmed expression and felt a little depressed.

Brother, if you drink, you will get into trouble. If you drink, you will get into trouble.

Don't worry, I will be impartial and impartial.

Xie Ji looked at the consultant, who felt a little numb.

Xie Ji, what does this mean? If you want to bend the law for personal gain, you are a traitor.

The advisor turns his head away and becomes a treacherous minister. He does not care about the traitor like a treacherous minister.

"What else?"

The emperor continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, I have something to do." Xie Ji continued to speak.

What is this traitor going to say?

They now feel that their bodies are no longer theirs.

This treacherous minister is usually not so active, but why has he kept talking so much today?
