1115. Chapter 1115 Taking the opportunity to eliminate dissidents 02
Mr. Zuo snorted, "Why, are you going to arrest me too? The people I selected are all His Majesty's eyes."
The emperor frowned slightly and glanced at Qi Xiuyou, "That's enough!"
Taking advantage of emergencies, assassinations, natural disasters, wars, etc. to eliminate dissidents and make friends with party members is a good trick for officials who are good at exploiting power.
Emperor Shouzheng himself came here like this, how could he not understand this?
He said coldly, "Don't make it difficult for them. Once it is confirmed that they were not involved in the assassination, they will be released immediately."
Qi Xiuyou hesitated for a moment, but still saluted, "Your Majesty, should I ask Mr. Zuo Xiang?"
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Zuo Prime Minister was in charge of the Ministry of Punishment and was Qi Xiuyou's superior. Moreover, he was promoted by the Zuo Prime Minister, so he deserved his due.
But now that the left prime minister is ill and is said to be unable to govern, we have to put it on hold for the time being.
However, people below the left prime minister may not necessarily obey others. If someone is asked to temporarily take over their duties, I'm afraid it will be a treacherous act.
The emperor's eyes were heavy and he immediately understood the meaning.
He smiled noncommittally. The assassination did not frighten him, and he still had no anger. He just smiled, waved his hand, and asked them to do it immediately.
Qi Xiuyou immediately took people to visit the left prime minister who was recovering in Ming Chunyuan.
Zuo Xiang of Song Dynasty was wearing a loose robe. Although he was ill, he was still neatly packed. He was sending people to quickly prepare a sedan chair to visit His Majesty.
Qi Xiuyou followed the Song family's butler into the inner room, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Zuo Prime Minister, "Zuo Prime Minister, just rest. His Majesty asked you not to work hard, so please stop working hard."
The left prime minister looked around, and his men immediately understood and went outside to monitor.
He snorted coldly, "He wants me to rest and I rest? It's not that easy. Emperors from ancient times have not used it very skillfully. Are we not prepared? He weakened my
The authority is to let him understand that without my Song family, let’s see if he can survive the Zhou Dynasty.”
Qi Xiuyou chuckled, "You are so clever, Prime Minister Zuo! But a few assassins can use a feint shot to achieve this effect."
Prime Minister Zuo was stunned and stared at him, "What's the use? It's just an opportunity. You immediately lead people to investigate and see how this group of assassins got in. It's really strange. The security is so tight, but assassins can still get in."
