A group of courtiers, who seemed to have fled in defeat, moved slowly towards the Fengtian Palace. From time to time, one or two groans and sobs could be heard from the crowd, and the atmosphere was very depressing and gloomy.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? our can we could not help each other might be better, and could not lessen each other¡¯s antagonism, and that the civil servants and nobles still glared fiercely at each other unyieldingly, and each arranged their shifts.
During the cold confrontation, the emperor's chariot approached slowly outside the palace, the ceremonial guards were like clouds, and the auspicious instruments were densely covered.
Wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, Zhu Houzhao entered the palace. Under the high-pitched voice of the eunuch on duty, all the officials knelt down and worshiped the mountain and shouted long live it.
Zhu Houzhao sat on the golden dragon chair, cleared his throat, and while speaking the opening remarks of the court meeting, he habitually looked around at the ministers in the palace.
"If you ministers have any reports on state affairs, you might as well Huh? Pfft! Hahahahaha" Zhu Houzhao took one look at the miserable state of the ministers and laughed shamelessly.
"Did you encounter horse thieves outside the palace gate? Why did you look like this? Haha, I laughed to death"
Zhu Houzhao's wild laughter echoed in the golden palace, and the faces of the originally scarred civil servants became increasingly ugly.
Plop!
The injured ministers knelt down in twos and threes and burst into tears without warning.
"Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for me!"
"Your Majesty has learned clearly that Duke Baoguo Zhu Hui bullies the weak and is domineering and arrogant. In front of the Chengtian Gate, he instigates nobles to brutally and inhumanely beat ministers and others. The ministers and others are all important weapons of the country. How can they be so insulted? I beg your majesty to severely punish Duke Baoguo. As a minister Wait for justice!¡±
"Ah!" Zhu Hui, the Duke of Bao Guo, stood up and glared at the civil servants angrily, saying angrily: "Black and white, you are the ones who have the right. You bunch of scumbags, pat your conscience and say it, you will only get beaten." Didn't you fight back? See for yourselves, most of the nobles were also injured, why didn't they ask His Majesty to make the decision?"
The civil servants were furious, and there was another verbal battle in the Golden Palace. The whole hall was noisy and lively like a village going to a fair.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet, be quiet!" Zhu Houzhao shouted, and the two parties stopped talking.
Zhu Houzhao suppressed a smile, rubbed his chin and said: "I just understood that civil servants and nobles are fighting, right? Putting aside the issue of who should be punished, I just want to ask what you are arguing about. ?¡±
I don¡¯t know if it was intentional or not, but Zhu Houzhao obviously refused to pick up the other pot. When talking about the reason for the fight, the civil servants and nobles looked at Zhu Houzhao and started to spit fire.
Yang Tinghe, who was beaten and bruised, took a step forward and said angrily in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you have the nerve to ask! If not"
"Pfft!"
Zhu Houzhao saw that half of Yang Tinghe's eye sockets were black, and the right side of his face was swollen, leaving only two slits in his originally bright eyes, and he couldn't help laughing again.
Yang Tinghe was so angry that he wanted to hit a pillar: "Your Majesty, please be solemn!"
"Okay, okay, I'm solemn. I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it because I was honest" Zhu Houzhao tried his best to hold back his smile, put on a solemn appearance, and tried hard to turn his eyes away from Yang Tinghe's face, but when he turned his eyes, he saw Liang Chu's face was bruised and swollen. Like an extra-large bun, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help himself again and laughed out loud on the spot.
"Pfftwahahahaha" Zhu Houzhao laughed wildly regardless of his manners, holding his belly while laughing, panting and apologizing repeatedly to Yang Tinghe, whose face was either livid from being beaten or livid with anger.
"Mr. Yang, II've let you down again. No, you have to allow me to smile a little longer. It's too funny. Mr. Liang, how much are you hated by others? Why do people greet you in the face? It's so abominable. ¡¡±
Zhu Houzhao laughed unscrupulously, and the faces of the civil servants became more and more ugly. However, the nobles also laughed with Zhu Houzhao. The laughter was full of malice, not only gloating about others' misfortunes, but also tsk-tsking and low-pitched judgment. Who punched that wound, how fierce the force was, how tricky the angle was, how sweet the scream was, etc
Listening to the harsh laughter in the hall, Yang Tinghe's old face gradually turned from green to green.
"Your Majesty, have you laughed enough?" Yang Tinghe shouted loudly.
"Laugh laugh enough, enough." Zhu Houzhao finally stopped and half-slumped on the dragon chair without any manners, breathing heavily.
Yang Tinghe said angrily: "Your Majesty, the vicious fight in front of the palace today was all caused by your Majesty. Your Majesty has no regrets at all. Instead, he laughed out loud. I dare to ask your Majesty, don't you feel that your actions are chilling the hearts of all the ministers?"
Zhu Houzhao suppressed his smile and narrowed his eyes: "What does the fierce fight in front of the palace have to do with me? I ask Mr. Yang to help me??Guide. "
"If you hadn't been fooling around yesterday and issued more than 20 imperial edicts on knighthood, which made the nobles jealous and hateful, how could you get into a melee with the civil servants? I would like to ask Your Majesty why you issued more than 20 imperial decrees on knighthood in a row? "
Zhu Houzhao seemed to have been prepared. He snorted coldly when he heard this: "I would like to ask Mr. Yang first, if the imperial edict of knighthood has not been approved by the cabinet and the General Affairs Department, will it take effect?"
"Of course not! It has been a centuries-old rule for the monarch and his ministers to rule the world together. How can your majesty decide state affairs arbitrarily based on your own likes and dislikes!"
"Since it is invalid, it means that the imperial edict I sent is equivalent to a piece of waste paper? Since it is waste paper, I can send it out as I want. Does it mean that I, the emperor, now have to look at your faces to send out a few pieces of waste paper? ?¡±
Yang Tinghe was furious: "Your Majesty, you are just messing around and confusing the public! The emperor's imperial edict is so noble, how can you say it is waste paper?"
The expressionless Zhu Houzhao suddenly slapped the armrest, stood up suddenly, glared at Yang Tinghe and shouted: "Since the imperial edict is noble, why is my edict invalid after leaving the palace? I even promoted a person who has made great contributions to the establishment of the country. The title of the ministers is also unavailable. Mr. Yang, all the courtiers in the palace, you say that the imperial edict is noble, but at the same time you say that the imperial edict is invalid, don't you think it is contradictory?"
These words caused a silence in the palace, and you could hear a needle drop.
"I have been on the throne for three years and have been the emperor for three years. I have accumulated many questions in my mind. Each of you said that this world belongs to me and that you are loyal ministers who are dedicated to helping me govern the country. But I have been thinking about this. Is the world mine or yours? I am just the emperor of a palace, or am I the emperor of all corners of the world? Whenever I make a decision or want to do something, you rush up like a swarm to oppose me fiercely. It seems that you are not even interested in me. No matter what decision you made, you didn¡¯t think twice about it. You just spoke against it. As a result, you were happy and satisfied. When you walked out of the palace, the people all said that you were loyal and upright ministers who were not afraid of power. But I, the emperor, lie on your back. The soles of your feet have become stepping stones for your reputation of loyalty"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes turned red as he spoke, and he leaned on the dragon chair extremely tiredly, crying: "My courtiers, I am your monarch, not your enemy" (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel .com
