"Your Majesty, everyone is here..." Xiaodouzi stood behind Ying Zheng and whispered.
"Do you know why I summoned you?" Ying Zheng opened his eyes and looked at the civil and military officials below. Most of them were new faces.
"I'm scared..." Regardless of whether they knew it or not, everyone bowed their heads in unison.
"You will be even more frightened later..." Ying Zhengyi pointed out, then he stood up and walked towards Fusu step by step.
The huge Qin Emperor's Palace was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a heel dropping, and Ying Zheng's steps, although gentle, were like thunder, making the foreheads of all the civil and military officials in the court covered with beads of sweat.
"Fusu, raise your head. You are the crown prince of the Great Qin Empire, and the future supreme emperor of the Great Qin Empire. Even if you are an emperor, you are a strong person. What is strong? In the sky and on the earth, I am the only one who is supreme. This is the attitude that an emperor and a strong person should have. And
You shouldn't be like this now, crouching and trembling, looking like a weakling." Ying Zheng walked up to Fusu, feeling very disappointed and lectured.
A guilty look appeared on Fusu's face, and he slowly raised his head, but his eyes were evasive and he did not dare to touch Ying Zheng's gaze.
"Trash..." Ying Zheng saw fear in Fusu's evasive eyes, and became even more angry. He couldn't help but slap Fusu in the face.
"Pa..." A crisp slap sounded in the hall, and all the civil and military officials were worried and thoughtful.
Is there any one of them here who is not a human being, who is well versed in the way of being an official, and has the ability to observe people's emotions, each of them is almost at the pinnacle of excellence.
His Majesty slapped His Royal Highness in the face in front of all the civil and military officials. They had to think about the key point.
Your Majesty beat the prince. It seemed that he was teaching the prince a lesson, but he did not necessarily mean to scare the tigers and kill the chickens to scare the monkeys.
Each of them felt that a bigger storm was still brewing. His Majesty was sending a dangerous signal to all civil servants and generals. I am very angry. You can think about it yourself.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." All civil and military officials said in unison.
Ying Zheng had a dark face and stretched out his hand to signal for silence. When he saw that it was quiet again, he said sternly: "Not only will I not calm down, but I also have to make you understand an iron law. Since I can give you the power to dominate all living beings.
, then you can take everything back easily.”
"Don't take chances or be smart. If you think you want to be an official, just do it, and if you don't want to be, just resign. How can there be such a good thing in the world? I will tell you with bloody facts that if you don't use your power well to serve the people and the country,
Fortunately, you will do something that is unconscionable and betray the country for glory. Even if God does not accept you, I will accept you to rectify people's hearts." Ying Zheng walked back and forth on the nine-level steps, swallowing the mountains and rivers with anger.
Every word he spoke seemed to possess mysterious power, shocking the hearts of every civil servant and military commander.
"I respectfully obey His Majesty's instructions." All civil and military officials shouted in unison again.
Ying Zheng said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember. Although I don't like killing, for the sake of all living beings in the world and for the immortal hegemony of the Great Qin Empire, I have to wield the butcher knife."
"Your Majesty, the Great Qin Empire will be immortal, and the sun and the moon will shine together." Although the civil and military officials knew that these words were threatening to themselves, they had no choice but to compliment them without conscience.
Ying Zheng did not pay attention to the officials, but walked up to Fusu who looked worried and uneasy and said: "Do you know why I hit you?"
"My son knows what my father has done to me, and I am extremely disappointed. I have not only failed to live up to my father's expectations, but also to the glory of the Qin Empire and the people of the world. I know that my crime is unpardonable and I am willing to be punished."
." Fusu said with red eyes and sincerity.
"Alas! You have a heart of benevolence and righteousness, and you have the essence to be a benevolent king. But if you are too strong, you will be broken, and if you are too benevolent, you will be roundabout. Why don't you understand such a simple truth?" Ying Zheng looked at Fusu and sighed, thinking in his heart.
Fusu gained a new level of understanding.
What Li Changqing said is not unreasonable. Fusu may really not be suitable to be an emperor. This is why historically he did not become the second emperor, but Hu Hai, who was not favored by the world, became the ninth emperor.
History has almost always been tampered with. To discredit and demonize the previous dynasty is a must-have policy for all dynasties and helps consolidate the rule of the current dynasty.
Ying Zheng understood this truth in the 21st century. The truth of history cannot be restored by mere documents and history books. History has always been written by the victors. This is a fact that everyone knows, but many people do not know how to write
historical purpose.
Is it really just for the sake of immortality and leaving a name in history? History itself has the answer, you just need to understand it carefully.
"Father, my son and I can't be crown princes, please abolish my position as crown prince." Fusu seemed to have made up his mind and begged Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng looked at Fusu's face, which showed no trace of deception, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He was able to freely choose the position of the crown prince of the Qin Empire without any nostalgia. Is he really a pedantic and indecisive person?
"Did he see through my thoughts? Did he know that I had intended to abolish Chu?" Ying Zheng was very confused and asked himself.
But he quickly gave it up. He had not decided yet, he just had this idea. He did not show the slightest attitude of abandoning Chu. How could Fusu know his thoughts.
Originally, Ying Zheng wanted to use his spiritual mind to directly explore what secrets lay deep in Fusu's mind, and whether he was a kind and loyal person, or a treacherous and evil person.
But after repeated consideration, he gave up the idea because he had the strength and the confidence to handle all problems and troubles.
"Since you have this idea, I won't force you, Xiaodouzi declares the decree." Ying Zhengruo glanced at Fusu meaningfully, then returned to his throne and said to Xiaodouzi behind him.
Xiaodouzi held the imperial edict and bowed down to salute Ying Zheng. Then he stood at the front edge of the nine steps and raised a sharp voice: "The sky and the earth are black and yellow, the universe is vast, and the majestic China all belong to the Qin Emperor. Those who do not have the support of the people will not have the world.
Also. How can one benefit the people if he cannot conquer the world?
Joy must be cherished, and sorrow must be feared. It excites people to be courageous and courageous, but detracts from their desire for self. If life is not a happy place for human beings, how can we gather, separate, and reunite after death?
Today, the state of China is in constant turmoil, the people of the world are in chaos, the civil and military affairs of the imperial court have been corrupted, and the prince's concurrent administration has harmed the country. While I am furious, I am heartbroken and declare this to the world.
The prince Fusu, who was favored by all the saints, had no ambition to make progress, was ignorant and unworthy of advancement. His status as prince was abolished, his title as prince was deprived of, and he was banned from the palace for a hundred years and pondered over his mistakes.
Prime Minister Li Si is a very human minister. He is honored as a first-class auxiliary prince. He is favored by all the saints and deeply favored by heaven. However, he is narrow-minded and neglects the country and the people for his own personal affairs. He deceives the prince, neglects the national affairs, colludes with the harem, and causes chaos.
Common people, being unfaithful and unjust, and arrogantly betraying God's great grace, are the most unforgivable crimes and the most disrespectful crime. He should be dismissed from his official position, stripped of his nobility, and given a palace. If only he can be loyal to the Qin Dynasty for two hundred years, his whole body will be left, and only his soul will be killed.
Taiwei Huang Guang..." Before Xiaodouzi could finish reading, he was interrupted by a righteous and generous word.
"Your Majesty... You must not do it! Your Majesty... The Prime Minister has served the Qin Dynasty for more than two hundred years. He has devoted himself to the Qin Dynasty for more than two hundred years. He has worked hard without any merit. Your Majesty can strip the Prime Minister of his official position and title. If Your Majesty does not care about the friendship between the monarch and his ministers, how can he execute the Prime Minister?
Don't let the world laugh at you and make the officials feel cold."
Although this official was the first to break the silence and take the lead, many people began to plead for Li Si one by one, and some even learned from his death.
It's just that these people didn't realize that the colleagues who were more senior than them were meeting these new colleagues one by one. Because His Majesty has not been here for the past hundred years, they didn't know Him at all.
After hearing their upright words, the senior ministers did not feel ashamed, but felt that their palms became cold and their hearts sank.
When they saw the smile on His Majesty's cold face and the corners of his mouth curling up, their faces turned pale.
Seeing that the new colleagues were pleased with His Majesty's beauty, they thought they had spoken to His Majesty's heart, so they all rushed to beg for mercy even more desperately.
Those senior officials buried their heads deeper, and the timid ones among them could not help but make a creaking sound. They were not worried about those poor smart-alecks, but they were worried that the city gate would catch fire and harm the fish in the pond!
As for those Li Si and others who were guilty, they also buried their heads deeply and did not dare to look into His Majesty's deep eyes... (To be continued...)
