"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have no foundation."
Young Master Liu stood up and walked to the edge of the dragon platform. He lowered his head and glanced at Liu Yaoyao, Liu Chengqian and his brother under the dragon platform.
"Okay, since none of you dear ladies have anything to say, I will tell you about the Queen's question about the beheading list."
Hearing Young Master Liu's words, all the civil and military officials in the palace looked at Liu Yaoyao and his brother.
"Yaoyao, Chengqian."
Liu Yaoyao and her brother immediately stood up and walked out, holding the Chao Hut and saluting.
"My son is here."
"You two, sister and brother, are the imperial envoys who are supervising the matter of asking for the beheading list after the fall of the Qiu Dynasty. Let one of you give a brief account of the case to your dear friends.
As for who will narrate it, you two siblings will decide among yourselves."
"My son, I obey."
Liu Yaoyao put down the Chao Hua in his hand, turned to look at Liu Chengqian and nodded his head gently.
"Third brother, you should do it."
Liu Chengqian did not shirk anything, nodded to the third sister, and took out a document from the sleeve of the python robe.
"Father, I have agreed with my sister that I will describe the general situation of the relationship to you adults."
"Okay, then it's up to you."
"Yaoyao."
"My son is here."
"You should take your seat first."
"yes."
Liu Chengqian saw the third sister walking towards his seat, opened the documents in his hand, turned around and glanced at the civil and military officials in the hall.
"My lords, I would like to briefly tell you the story behind Qiu Hou's question about the beheading list."
The civil and military officials straightened their expressions and nodded in unison.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Third Prince. I am all ears."
"My lords, you all know what happened before this case, so I won't repeat it again.
After the Second Route Western Expedition Army set off, I and my third sister followed my father's will.
I went to various state capitals for private visits incognito, and secretly reviewed Qiu Houwenzhan..."
While Liu Chengqian was flipping through the documents in his hand, he loudly told the civil and military officials in the hall the general situation of the Qiu Queen's inquiry on the beheading list.
As Liu Chengqian continued his unhurried narration, the faces of the civil and military officials in the hall gradually became different.
Corruption and bribery.
Bend the law for personal gain.
Take care of human life.
Wait, wait, wait, the horrifying content, to the civil and military officials in the hall, is like thunder, ringing in their ears continuously.
Even Xia Gongming and Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, who participated in the performance in Zhao Prison last night, also opened their minds.
At this time, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were flashing with anger.
Liu Chengqian didn't know what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were thinking, but he was still describing the contents of the document unhurriedly.
Young Master Liu's eyes passed through the crown in front of him, and he looked down calmly at the reactions on the faces of the civil and military officials in the hall, as if he wanted to read something from their expressions.
"A few days ago, I and my third sister led the imperial guards to escort a group of prisoners back to Beijing and transferred them to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment for temporary custody.
As for the placement of those people who have suffered unjust injustice, I will not say for the time being."
Liu Chengqian closed the documents in his hand, raised his hand and glanced at the civil and military officials in the palace.
"This is the general situation of Qiu Hou's question about the beheading list. Do you have any questions?"
The civil and military officials looked at each other, and after making sure that no colleagues had any questions, they looked at Liu Chengqian and shook their heads in unison.
"Back to His Highness the Third Prince, I have no doubts."
Liu Chengqian nodded lightly, turned around and saluted Young Master Liu who was standing on the dragon platform.
"To inform my father, I have already finished describing the case."
Young Master Liu retracted his gaze from observing the changes in the expressions of the civil and military officials, and turned to look at his second son, Liu Chengzhi, who was standing next to him.
"Chengzhi, document."
"My son, I obey."
Liu Chengzhi walked quickly down the dragon platform and reached out to take the document in his hand.
Returning to the dragon platform, Liu Chengzhi directly handed the document in his hand to his father.
"Father, document."
Young Master Liu casually took the document and looked down at his third son, Liu Chengqian.
"Chengzhi."
"My son is here."
"Return to your seats and take your seats."
"My son, I obey."
Young Master Liu put his hands on his back and looked dimly outside the Qinzheng Hall.
When the civil and military officials saw Mr. Liu, they stopped saying anything. They also nodded and lowered their eyebrows in silence.
Officials who can rank in the second class are naturally not fools.
Observing words and emotions is their most basic skill.
From the moment Young Master Liu took the document from His Highness the Second Prince, they had already vaguely sensed the suppressed anger in Young Master Liu.
Under such circumstances, naturally no one would dare to get into trouble.
It would be an accident to touch His Majesty's divine power at this time.
At worst, you will receive a moderate punishment, at worst, you may lose your head.
After about a while of tea, a Forbidden Army soldier hurriedly ran into the hall.
"Your Majesty, Manager Liu has invited all the people to the palace."
"pass!"
"I obey my orders."
After the Imperial Guard soldiers ran to the main hall, Young Master Liu turned his head and glanced at his second son, Liu Chengzhi, who was standing next to him.
"Chengzhi."
"My son is here."
"You should rush to the imperial kitchen immediately and instruct Xiao Chengzi to deliver the mutton soup and food to Qinzheng Hall as soon as possible."
"My son, please obey your orders. I, my son, will retire first."
Young Master Liu looked at Liu Chengzhi's retreating figure, turned around, walked to the front of the dragon chair and sat down.
Young Master Liu picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. He looked calmly at the crowd outside the hall heading towards the Qinzheng Hall and waited calmly.
Under Young Master Liu's gaze, Liu Song led more than a hundred people to a stop outside the gate of the Qinzheng Hall.
Liu Song stopped, turned around, looked at a group of nervous people, and explained in a soft voice.
After a while, Liu Song quickly walked into the main hall and bowed to give a big salute.
"Your Majesty, all the people have entered the palace."
Young Master Liu put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Liu Song and nodded gently.
"Let them all come in."
"I obey, little one."
Liu Song walked behind the palace gate, and a group of people outside the palace waved.
"Everyone, Your Majesty has summoned you to enter the palace."
When a group of common people heard Liu Song's greeting, they immediately straightened up and walked towards the Qinzheng Hall with nervous expressions.
"Common people come to see His Majesty the Emperor, long live long live, long live long live."
"Women of the common people come to see His Majesty the Emperor, long live long live, long live long live."
"Young people, please see your Majesty the Emperor, long live long live, long live long live."
Young Master Liu looked at the more than a hundred people of all ages, men, women, and children under the dragon platform, and quickly raised his hands.
"No gifts, no gifts at all."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Chengzhi, Yue'er."
"My son is here."
"Stop letting the people stand. You two brothers and sisters will immediately arrange for the people to sit down on both sides of the hall."
"My son, I obey."
After Liu Chengzhi, the little cute brother and sister stood up, they immediately walked towards a group of common people standing in the hall.
"Everyone, please divide into two teams and follow our brother and sister here."
Hearing the words of Liu Chengzhi's brother and sister, everyone couldn't help but panic. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
Seeing this, Liu Song immediately walked to the middle and raised his hands to signal.
"Everyone, don't be nervous, these two are the second prince and the fourth princess of the current dynasty.
You men and women should each be divided into a team and follow His Royal Highness the Second Prince and His Royal Highness the Fourth Princess to disperse to both sides."
Hearing Liu Song's loud shouting, the faces of more than a hundred people gradually calmed down, and they spontaneously divided into two teams, following Liu Chengzhi's brother and sister and walking toward both sides of the hall.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
"Everyone, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highness, the Second Prince."
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess."
After everyone was seated, Mr. Liu stood up from the dragon chair and walked slowly and slowly towards the bottom of the dragon platform.
When more than a hundred people saw Mr. Liu walking off the dragon platform, they quickly lowered their heads and held their breath involuntarily.
Young Master Liu stopped in the center of the hall and looked around at the more than a hundred people on both sides who had lowered their heads.
"Common people, the space in the main hall is limited, and we really can't fit too many futons.
Therefore, I have no choice but to make you sit on the ground."
Hearing Mr. Liu's approachable words, the expressions on the faces of more than a hundred people couldn't help but be startled.
Even some of the officials among them couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Mr. Liu's gentle tone.
Obviously, Young Master Liu's attitude towards himself and others was somewhat beyond their expectations.
In their minds, His Majesty the Emperor should look so aloof!
Young Master Liu saw the reaction and behavior of a group of people and vaguely understood what they were thinking.
Upon seeing this, Liu Song immediately walked to Young Master Liu's side.
"Master, the people seem to be very afraid of you.
If this continues, how should you inquire about the situation?"
"It doesn't matter, it's the first time for the common people to see this young master, the king of a country, and it's human nature to be afraid.
Master, I can deal with them slowly and gradually eliminate the fear in their hearts."
"Okay, I understand, little one."
"Liu Song, it's none of your business. You can go and have a rest first."
"Hey, I understand, little one."
Young Master Liu glanced around the hall for a moment, then walked towards a young man on the front left with a smile.
"Brother Zhuzi, do you still recognize me, my brother?"
When the young man heard Young Master Liu's somewhat familiar voice, his body jerked and he subconsciously raised his head and looked towards him.
"ah?"
Young Master Liu knelt down gently, stretched out his hand to lift off the crown in front of his eyes, and chuckled a few times as he looked at the astonished young man in front of him.
"Hehehe, why, brother Zhuzhu, don't you recognize my eldest brother?
Don’t forget, you owe me a pot of tobacco, big brother!”
"It's...it's you, Brother Scholar!"
Young Master Liu stretched out his hand and took out the tobacco bag from his waist. He gestured cheerfully in front of Zhu Zhu with the tobacco bag.
"Yes, I am your scholar brother."
"Brother Scholar, you are... His Majesty the Emperor of the current dynasty."
Young Master Liu looked at Zhu Zhu's dumbfounded expression, picked up his dragon robe and swung it.
"Why, brother, don't I look like the current Emperor?"
Zhuzi looked at Young Master Liu in astonishment, and his body could not help but tremble.
"No, no, I... am not... this... that..."
Young Master Liu looked at Zhu Zhu's incoherent expression and raised his hand to slap him on the shoulder a few times.
"Brother Zhuzi, you don't have to be nervous, let alone be afraid."
"Brother Scholar, no no no, Your Majesty the Emperor.
The grassroots people know the crime, the grassroots people know the crime.
If the common people had known that you were the current Emperor, I would not have dared to call you that even if you had lent me ten thousand courages!"
Young Master Liu put down the crown in his hand and chuckled a few times with a slight smile.
"Hehehe, Brother Zhuzhu, what are you guilty of?
I'm older than you, so isn't it natural for you to call me scholar brother?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you are older than me, I call you big brother..."
Zhuzi was just halfway through what he said when he seemed to think of something and shook his head hurriedly.
"No, no, your Majesty, you are the emperor.
How dare you, a common man, call you big brother!
The crime of the grassroots people deserves to be punished by death, and the crime of the grassroots people deserves to be punished by death."
Young Master Liu looked at Zhu Zhu's panicked look and stood up with a slight frown.
It seems that what I think is too simple!
As Liu Song said just now, these people are too afraid of themselves.
I want to eliminate the fear that these people have for themselves, the king of a country.
I'm afraid it won't be possible in a short time.
In this way, I can only deal with the grievances of the people normally.
Just as Young Master Liu was meditating depressedly, the voices of Liu Chengzhi and Xiao Chengzi suddenly sounded in the hall.
"My sons and ministers see my father."
"Old slave, I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
Young Master Liu came back to his senses and looked behind the palace door.
Looking at the two people standing inside the palace gate saluting him, Young Master Liu waved his hand casually.
"No gifts."
"Thank you, Father."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Young Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and pinned the tobacco bag behind his back again.
"Little Chengzi."
"The old slave is here."
"Are you ready with all the things I asked you to prepare?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I am all ready."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"Don't dare, don't dare, this is the old slave's responsibility."
"Where is everything."
"Your Majesty, everything has been sent outside the palace and can be sent in at any time."
Young Master Liu nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the foot of the dragon platform.
"Xiao Chengzi, I'm here."
"Let someone bring the things into the main hall."
"Old slave, I obey."
After Xiao Chengzi stood up, he immediately turned around and trotted towards Qinzheng Hall.
As soon as Little Chengzi left the palace gate, the Imperial Guard soldiers who had been here once before quickly ran into the hall again.
"Your Majesty, His Highness King Wuyi has escorted all the prisoners outside the palace gate."
Young Master Liu's face was stunned, and he subconsciously looked outside the Qinzheng Hall.
Seeing Song Qing on the edge of the thousand-level platform and a group of prisoners behind him, Young Master Liu frowned slightly and thought for a while.
"Call to King Wuyi to escort all the prisoners into the palace immediately."
"I obey my orders."
Young Master Liu did not ascend the dragon platform again, but held the hilt of the sword tightly in his hand and waited with cold eyes.
