With such a court and such ministers, being an emperor is indeed a very uncomfortable thing.
The longevity hall was originally full of celebrations, but was completely destroyed by Huang Lu Shengsheng. Zhu Houzhao was extremely angry. On the day of the old queen's birthday, she could not order his death, and she was so angry that she burst into tears.
Huang Lu said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, it is precisely because of eating the emperor's salary that I am loyal to the emperor. The traitor will never say anything about what I reported. What the traitor sees in his eyes is only the sadness of your majesty." Joy, what loyal ministers see in their eyes is the joy and sorrow of millions of people in the world."
Although the words were beautiful, several people in the hall snorted angrily on the spot. Needless to say, it was Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and other eight donkeys. Even Qin Kan's face didn't look good.
Civil officials have many weapons, the words of saints are weapons, the lessons from the rise and fall of previous dynasties are weapons, and the proclamation of loyalty is also a weapon. It's enough for you to flaunt yourself as a loyal minister, but also to insinuate that others are traitors and traitors. Nowadays, it seems that the court does not need arguments to distinguish between loyalty and traitor, only the minister's mouth is enough.
Wearing auspicious clothes, Liu Jin stood in front of the palace, her hands hanging naturally, and her waist slightly bent forward. She looked like a royal slave, but her small eyes were staring at Huang Lu with murderous intent. The old Queen Mother is celebrating her birthday today, so it would be unlucky to kill her, butit is impossible for the Old Queen Mother to celebrate her birthday every day, right?
Qin Kan doesn¡¯t like killing people very much, but he is happy to see Huang Lu learn from Eunuch Liu¡¯s methods.
Aren¡¯t you showing off as loyal ministers? To be a loyal minister, you must have the consciousness to be killed by a traitor. If you don¡¯t believe it, go down below and ask Yue Fei how he feels about being victimized
The civil servants in the palace were silent and showed no sign of Huang Lu's behavior. Obviously, what Huang Lu said was exactly what the civil servants thought. Huang Lu not only spoke for himself today, but also for the civil servants.
Zhu Houzhao's mind was very confused at the moment. He wanted to kill someone, he wanted to cry loudly, and he even wanted to simply write an edict to abdicate and stop being the emperor. Many emotions were lingering in his heart.
"Huang Lu, what do you mean by what you said? Many homeless people and beggars in Beizhili died of cold, and I am extremely heartbroken. I have already issued an edict to offend myself, allocated money for relief, and dealt with relevant officials. What you said today, What else do you want from me?" Zhu Houzhao asked slowly while holding back his anger.
Huang Lufu said: "I request your Majesty to reduce the expenses in the palace and allocate money from the internal treasury to all government offices to open charity sheds to provide food and clothing for the refugees"
"I promise!" Zhu Houzhao said with a livid face and gritted his teeth.
These two things are not too much. Even if Huang Lu didn't say it, Zhu Houzhao had this plan. However, when Huang Lu said it in front of the civil and military officials of the court, the taste changed. There was always a sense of coercion, and When the minister took the initiative to speak, word spread that people all over the world were full of praise, and the good reputation was all taken away by the minister, which instead highlighted how stupid and unethical the emperor was.
"Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous. I would like to thank you on behalf of the people of the world."
Zhu Houzhao said coldly: "The people of the world are my people. I don't need you to represent the people of the world."
"Yes, I would like to ask your Majesty to fast and bathe, burn incense to pay homage to the poor dead beggars, and solemnly pay your respects in front of the Ancestral Temple."
Zhu Houzhao's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Huang Lu, are you going too far? Do you know where the Ancestral Temple is?"
"Your Majesty, the country is the country passed down from the ancestors. Your Majesty is also the descendant of the ancestors. If the descendants have meritorious service, they can shine in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Why can't they blame themselves on the Imperial Ancestral Temple?"
At this time, as if they heard the signal, all the civil servants in the palace suddenly knelt down to Zhu Houzhao and said in unison: "I respectfully ask your Majesty to sin against you in the Imperial Ancestral Temple."
In the crowd, Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and other dozens of relatively loyal ministers were hesitant and intolerant, but seeing that most of the civil servants knelt down, they had no choice but to kneel down and bow their heads.
The law does not punish everyone. When civil servants become a rope, such a force is absolutely terrifying. Even the emperor is helpless against it. At this moment, right and wrong no longer matter, what matters is whose voice is louder.
The weak Zhu Houzhao shed tears again, looked up at the top of the palace, and suddenly said quietly: "Don't you just want a reputation for loyalty? I give it to you! There is no need to blame yourself, I will issue an edict right now , if you choose another worthy person, I will withdraw"
Before the word "abdicate" was uttered, an old woman's voice in the palace was heard shouting: "Your Majesty! Shut up!"
There are only three women in the palace, the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xia. As the saying goes, three women perform a show, but they are obviously not the ones singing the show today. Seeing the ministers in the palace causing trouble not only ruined the joy of the palace, but also brought Zhu Houzhao to the throne. Forced to abdicate voluntarily, the old queen mother became angry.
The ebony faucet crutch hit the carpeted floor hard, and the whole hall came back.No, if it were so easy to kill someone, Your Majesty would have killed him long ago. If Huang Lu was killed, the ministers would probably make a bigger fuss. Even if they suppressed it with thunderbolt means, in the future, the monarch and his ministers would be alienated from their morality, and I am afraid that Your Majesty would be subject to more constraints. His Majesty's It doesn¡¯t have a good reputation either¡¡±
Liu Jin stared at Qin Kan and said, "Does the Marquis have a way to cure them?"
"have."
Everyone in Nuan Pavilion¡¯s eyes lit up.
"What can you do? Tell me quickly!"
Qin Kan coughed and said: "Your Majesty, didn't the ministers ask your Majesty to fast and bathe, and the Imperial Ancestral Temple should sin on itself?"
"Yes."
"Your Majesty will agree to them! But the so-called monarch and ministers are of the same mind, your Majesty has committed a crime, and the ministers are naturally unavoidable. If you want to blame your ancestors, everyone should go together!"
Zhu Houzhao was confused: "What on earth are you planning?"
