Chapter 421 Who is the traitor?(2/2)
When everyone heard this, you looked at me and I looked at you. No one believed that the old man could explain anything to them.
Judging from the old man's love for his naughty grandson, they are probably the ones who will suffer in the end.
When Lao Zhu saw that everyone was not moving, he immediately got angry and said.
"how?"
"Do you still want to stay in the palace to eat?"
"Get out of here!"
"No food will be left in the palace today!"
When all the vassal kings heard this, they quickly picked up their tails and ran away in despair. Even the King of Qin, who was not stingy, did not dare to stay any longer. He picked up the gold book on the ground and ran away with everyone.
After Lao Zhu sent away these vassal kings, he ushered in the civil servant group headed by Kong Ne.
Lao Zhu didn't want to see him at first, but Yanshenggong Kongna was the head of the civil service, so he had to give him some face.
Therefore, he refused to visit other officials and only asked Kong Ne to be brought in.
When the others heard that the emperor refused to see them, although they were unhappy in their hearts, they did not dare to show it on their faces and just kept cheering Kong Ne up.
"Mr. Yansheng, I leave it to you to see whether our Ming Dynasty cultural heritage can continue!"
When Kong Ne heard this, he bowed his hands to everyone.
"Don't worry, everyone!"
"Even if I risk my life, I will let His Majesty the Emperor take back the life of the great grandson of the Emperor, and give the people of Shandong a bright future!"
"Shenggong Yan said it well!"
"After all, he is Yan Shenggong, the leader of the Ming Dynasty. We admire him!"
After receiving the ecstasy soup from everyone, Kong Na climbed up the steps with firm steps and went to behead Zhu Yuanzhang, the most powerful dragon in the Ming Dynasty.
Lao Zhu also made some preparations before meeting Kong Ne, and ordered someone to place a tea table and two chairs in the main hall in advance.
When Kong Ne entered the main hall, Lao Zhu was sitting on the tea table making tea. When he saw Kong Ne coming in to salute, Lao Zhu didn't show any sign and continued to pour the tea by himself, as if he didn't see Kong Ne.
.
It wasn't until Kong Ne completed the full set of etiquette that Lao Zhu waved to Kong Ne enthusiastically.
"Shenggong Yan is here, come and have a drink with us quickly!"
After the grand ceremony of kneeling and worshiping just now, Yan Shenggong's anger was reduced a bit.
In fact, this is one of the purposes of Lao Zhu's arrangement, which is to let Lao Kongtou get rid of his anger and know his identity.
Kong Ne bowed to Lao Zhu.
"Since His Majesty has requested it, I would rather obey it than be respectful!"
"Come on, come on!"
"Look and sit!"
With the support of the little eunuch, Kong Ne sat on the chair with his butt half up, holding a tea cup in one hand and a tea cup in the other to taste it carefully.
Tea is average, water is even more average.
At least it was far inferior to the spring water he brought from Baotu Spring.
But because it was brewed by the emperor himself, it has a unique flavor and a unique honor in it.
The reason why the emperor made tea for himself was probably because he felt that the emperor's grandson's move was a bit excessive, and he wanted to admit his mistake, right?
Kong Ne thought of this and felt much more relaxed while drinking tea.
As long as the emperor does not approve of the emperor's grandson's behavior, then Ming Dynasty can still be saved!
“Great tea!”
“Good water!”
"Good work!"
"Your Majesty is really a treasure that never grows old!"
Lao Zhu laughed loudly after hearing this.
"Yan Sheng Gui will speak!"
"Hahaha!"
"By the way, Yan Shenggong came here this time, must be because of what our eldest grandson did in Shandong, right?"
Kong Ne heard this and asked carefully.
"I would like to ask Your Majesty, do you think the cruelty of the people carried out by the emperor's grandson in Shandong can be called benevolent government?"
Hearing this, Lao Zhu picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He did not answer Kong Ne directly, but asked a question.
"Confucius, what do you think is harmful to the people?"
When Kong Ne heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
He found that his previous judgment was wrong. Instead of being angry with the grandson, the old emperor was still defending the grandson.
What to do?
The reason why he came to challenge the emperor was because he was sure that the emperor would not support the emperor's grandson's perverse behavior.
The emperor's attitude now made him confused as to where to start.
"Your Majesty, the emperor's grandson oppresses the royal family, which is a bad thing."
"The emperor's grandson, the officials and the gentry, and the royal family all receive food as one body. This is the second unwholesome thing!"
"The emperor's grandson forcefully buys people's land. This is the three evils!"
"The emperor's grandson forcibly sells people's farm tools and seeds. This is the four unwholesome acts!"
"The emperor's grandson seized most of the land in Shandong and devoured the source of the imperial tax. These are the five unwholesome deeds!"
Kong Ne said Zhu Yunxi's five bad deeds in one breath, and finally he turned to Zhu Yunxi and said "just words".
"Your Majesty, although the emperor's grandson is said to have these five evil deeds, in my humble opinion I cannot blame the emperor's grandson."
"The grandson of the Emperor is young, how can he understand the ways here? He must have been deceived by the treacherous ministers around him!"
When Lao Zhu heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Fortunately, this old Kongtou is not an old fool. If he really dares to speak ill of our eldest grandson, we wouldn't mind letting his son take the title of Yan Shenggong in advance!
Chapter completed!
