"Your Majesty! Do you have to protect Han Du and abandon the world?"
Chen Di's hair and beard were all bulging, and spit was flying everywhere.
Zhu Biao looked cold, pointed at Chen Di and others and said, "Am I shielding Han Du? I think you are shielding Qitai!"
"Qi Tai was greedy and amassed money. He supported his party members privately, supported his disciples and old officials, and colluded with his subordinates. He even dared to withhold grain and grass from the border to vent his personal grudges."
"In the face of such irrefutable evidence, you turned a blind eye. Instead of investigating Qi Tai's crime, you grabbed Han Du. What do you want to do!"
Zhu Biao suddenly grabbed the evidence and threw it at His Majesty Dan. Documents were flying everywhere and falling from the sides of faces.
But just as Zhu Biao said, no one like Chen Di looked at the evidence, they all stared directly at Zhu Biao.
"Your Majesty! Qi Tai was killed without guilt. This is Han Du's lynching. Han Du must be held accountable for his crimes!" Chen Di's eyes widened and he stepped forward to press.
Zhu Biao immediately retorted, "Qitai's crime is so heinous that even if he is executed in Lingchi, it will not dissipate the hatred in my heart. Although Han Du mentioned killing him, being able to keep his whole body is an advantage for him."
"What's wrong with Han Do?"
Chen Di was shocked when he saw that the emperor's words were either to kill or to be executed.
Is this still the kind emperor in his heart?
He suddenly saw the shadow of Emperor Hongwu in Zhu Biao.
Thinking of the horror of Emperor Hongwu, Chen Di trembled with fear. He was lucky enough to survive the Hongwu Dynasty, why did he want to go back to those days of fear?
"The emperor also said that there were kings of Yao and Shun above, and people of Yao and Shun below. The emperor forced his subjects like this, does he look like the king of Yao and Shun?"
What Chen Di means is that although you Zhu Biao are the emperor, if you do not agree to our conditions, then you Zhu Biao will not be the king of Yao and Shun, and they are not prepared to be the ministers of Yao and Shun anymore.
Zhu Biao stood up suddenly and shouted, "I also want to be the king of Yao and Shun. Since you have no fixed place to live in, and some people rent houses to live in, I will build houses and reward you according to your merits."
"In order to make your life better, I have also increased your salary. I am afraid that you will lose a piece of clothing and a meal."
"With all this, have I ever wronged you?"
"But what about you? You have tyrannically embraced the power I have given you for your own personal gain, used divine weapons for personal use, corrupted the country and enriched your family, and all the people's wealth and wealth have been plundered! Is this what you call the ministers of Yao and Shun? Extremely shameless!"
Han Du felt happy when he saw Zhu Biao scolding these officials.
Han Du had warned Zhu Biao very early on that he thought he was too lax in supervising the officials. Although it was not necessary to be as tough as Lao Zhu, at least he had to be intimidated regularly. Otherwise, the officials would only think that he was
This emperor is weak and can be bullied, and he will become more and more aggressive.
Unexpectedly, people like Chen Di actually pressed forward step by step, forcing honest people like Zhu Biao to become furious.
Chen Di didn't know how terrible an honest man's anger could be, and he was still dancing like crazy. He didn't dare to cause trouble for Zhu Biao, but he set his target on Han Du.
"Han Du! You treacherous sycophant! You beguiled the emperor and brought trouble to the court. I wish I could beat you to death!"
"Beat Han Du to death, beat Han Du to death!"
When Zhu Biao heard this, he was instantly shocked and shouted angrily, "Be brave, come and protect Han Du!"
Facing Chen Di and others who were about to rush over due to the overwhelming number of people, Han Du raised his eyebrows, drew out his revolver, and pointed at Chen Di's forehead.
Everyone was shocked when they saw it. They stopped and did not dare to move forward at all. Everyone seemed to be frozen.
Chen Di looked at the dark muzzle of the gun in front of him, but couldn't move his clenched fist. Han Du, a lunatic, had even killed Qi Tai, so he didn't dare to bet that Han Du wouldn't kill him.
"Han Handu, you, what do you want to do?"
Facing the threat of death, Chen Di couldn't help but lower his voice and spoke cautiously.
Han Du snorted coldly, "Who do you think you are? Dare you speak so loudly to the emperor? It turns out that you can also speak softly."
"Han Du! This is the Fengtian Palace, and you dare to bring the revolver in. Do you take the emperor seriously? Do you still have the king's law in your eyes?"
Someone stood behind Chen Di and accused Han Du.
Chen Di also suddenly started to shake up, stared at Han Du, and said sternly, "Han Du! You dare to bring the revolver into Fengtian Palace, you are simply lawless!"
Han Du chuckled, shook his hand, showed his handle, pointed and said, "Look clearly, this is a gift from the late emperor, why can't I bring it in?"
The items given by the emperor were eligible to be brought to Fengtian Palace, but Han Du's behavior was not illegal at all.
Zhu Biao glanced at Zuolun and said calmly, "Han Du, put it away."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Han Du put it away as he was told.
Chen Di looked at Zhu Biao with a disappointed face, raised his head sadly and sighed, "Since the emperor thinks that I am not a good minister, then I will beg for my bones and beg the emperor for permission!"
When the other officials heard this, they immediately said in unison
"I am begging for the bones, please allow your Majesty's permission!"
As Chen Di knelt down, all the officials behind him knelt down.
To force Zhu Biao to resign was the last resort of Chen Di and others
It is also the only chance to turn defeat into victory.
However, their move further angered Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao took a deep breath, suddenly moved his sleeves and robe back with both hands, and made a sound.
He asked calmly, "Is there anyone else who wants to resign?"
The officials who knelt included most of the neutrals like Chen Di who were already on good terms with Qi Tai. Except for a small number of neutrals and officials from the academy, about three-quarters of the officials wanted to resign.
If there are more, there is no need to have more. If these people in front of me really resign, then the entire imperial court will be almost empty.
"Emperor" Han Du saw that something was not going well and wanted to persuade Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao simply flicked his sleeves and blocked Han Du's words.
"Handu, shut up."
Then he looked at Chen Di and others with cold eyes, "I'm asking again, is there anyone else who wants to resign?"
No one answered.
Zhu Biao waited for a few seconds and then said, "It seems there is no more."
"So, if Chen Dizhen gives you another chance, do you really want to abandon me?"
Chen Di never expected this result. He originally thought that so many people resigning would make Zhu Biao bow his head. But now it seems that Zhu Biao has no intention of bowing his head.
Chen Di panicked. He had never thought about resigning!
But now he is riding a tiger and it is difficult to get off. If he retreats at this moment, his whole life of wisdom will be wiped out, and no one will obey him again.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the old ministers want to abandon the Emperor. It's that if the traitors in the court are not eliminated, the country will not be able to survive, and the Ming Dynasty will never have peace!"
Chen Di was determined to kill him. If Zhu Biao didn't get rid of Han Du, they would resign. He wanted to see whether in Zhu Biao's heart, one Han Du was more important, or all of them.
After Zhu Biao heard this, he looked unusually calm and just nodded.
"The Duke of Zhen Guo attacked the Timur Empire from the west, destroyed Timur's second largest city Herat and the Nusrato Ku Fortress, and marched to the capital Samarkand, forcing Timur to return to the defense.
Mo Dayan."
"Otherwise, why do you think Timur didn't continue eastward into Guanzhong after paying a heavy price to conquer Jiayuguan, but instead returned directly to his army?"
Chen Di and others couldn't help but glance at Han Du. They never thought that Han Du would be so fast and violent in this battle. Indeed, if Timur's imperial capital had not been seriously threatened, who would be stupid enough to abandon the Ming Dynasty with its gate open and hurriedly
return?
But admiration comes from admiration, and the two sides have different positions. This time Chen Di has offended Han Du to death, and there must be a winner!
<
br> "Your Majesty, merit is merit, fault is fault! Han Du is good at killing the Minister of War, and such a villain cannot be punished, which is not enough to win the hearts of the people of the world!"
"You are not popular among the people of the world!" Zhu Biao's eyes were as big as bells.
Then he shouted sharply, "Aren't you going to resign? I'm sure!"
If you lose, you will lose completely!
Chen Di closed his eyes in great pain, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.
Other intimidating officials were also surprised, and some even regretted kneeling down to force the palace. They originally just wanted to follow the trend and fight for a clear name, but they never planned to put their own career on the line!
But now, even if they desperately want to regret it, they dare not stand up, otherwise they will be ruined!
Chen Di opened his eyes and looked at the Emperor again, trembling with his beard and said, "In this case, I will resign, Your Majesty, take care of yourself."
After taking off his official hat and placing it on the ground, Chen Di stood up shakily. He raised his eyes to look at the emperor, but saw that the emperor had turned his gaze to one side and had no intention of looking at him.
He knew that the emperor was determined to drive him away. He lowered his head and glanced at the official hat that had been with him for so many years, bowed silently, turned around and walked out of Fengtian Hall.
After Chen Di left, Zhu Biao looked back at the officials kneeling on the ground. Seeing that they did not move at all, he continued to sarcastically say, "What? Aren't you going to resign? Do you want me to send someone to remove your official hats?"
Take it off?”
Being humiliated at the hands of slaves like that was simply more uncomfortable than killing these officials. Although many people deeply regretted it, in the face of such a situation, they had to take off their official hats.
"Your Majesty, take care, I will take my leave."
Han Du used to be very impatient with these people, but when he saw so many people resigned, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
He turned to look at Zhu Biao, but was blocked by Zhu Biao's stern look.
"Retreat!"
When the last official stepped out of the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Biao waved his sleeves and turned behind the dragon chair, returning to the Qianqing Palace.
Only a few officials were left standing in the palace looking at each other, not knowing what to do.
Wang Yuanji smiled bitterly. Although he also hated Chen Di and others for impeaching Mr. Wang, things were serious now.
He took two steps forward and asked, "Master, what should we do now?"
Han Du glanced at the shocked crowd. The Fengtian Hall, which was originally full of people, now only had a few sparse people left.
He waved his hands and sighed, "Everyone, please go back. I would like to see the emperor to see the situation first."
