At least it shows that you still have the value of being scolded.
Take today's incident for example. Look at Hu Ganwei and Hu Gandang, two brothers. Did His Highness the Crown Prince scold them?
No.
Because it's totally unnecessary and worthless.
Others may have their own priorities in assigning accountability based on the degree of involvement in the case, but don't think about it, they will definitely face the fate of Wenzhan.
Zheng Baorong said with a sad face, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong."
"Are you aware of your mistake?"
Li Chen sneered and said to Chen Tong: "Dongchang first checked Zheng Baorong with me. If it is true as he said, it would be fine if he was not involved. But if he has any involvement in this matter, there is no need to report it to me.
Palace, kill him directly."
Chen Tong didn't even look at Zheng Baorong and responded: "I humbly obey my orders."
On the other hand, Zheng Baorong, although Li Chen's words were scary, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was extremely glad that he had resisted his greed for a while and did not join in with those people. Otherwise, a governor of the capital would have been won over long ago.
Although he couldn't afford to offend that group of people, at least he understood what he could and couldn't do, and it really had nothing to do with this matter, so he was extremely tolerant at this time.
Although His Highness wants to investigate himself, it would be better if he does so to prove his innocence.
"Also, don't leave your left minister of the Ministry of Industry for now. Your next task is to cooperate with Xu Junlou to straighten things out in the capital. If the emperor's feet are not clean, how filthy will this world be?
What's the situation? When will the capital be clean and you can take office again."
The head may not be chopped off, but the punishment that deserves it must still be given.
Although Li Chen's words made Zheng Baorong feel uncomfortable, he still said honestly: "I thank His Highness for your kindness."
Li Chen glared at him and walked outside Mihang again.
All the people could hear clearly the order Li Chen gave just now.
This was the first time in their lives that they had been exposed to such high-level people and things, and each of them felt extremely excited and excited.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is sage!"
The old man who was supported by Li Chen was the first to shout.
"His Royal Highness is a saint!!!"
All the people shouted in unison.
But Li Chen couldn't be happy.
He pressed his hands together, and after the shouts stopped, he said: "If such a thing is needed to reflect my sage, I would rather not have such a sage."
This sentence made the scene completely silent.
Pairs of eyes looked at Li Chen, but no one said anything.
Li Chen added: "Everyone, the ancients taught us that the people are like water, and the king is the boat. The water can carry the boat and also capsize it. The foundation of the Qin Dynasty has never been the high officials of the court, or even the royal family. It is not me, but you, the common people."
.”
"The people are the most important thing, the country is the second most important thing, and the king is the least important thing."
Sighing, Li Chen said: "Many people know this truth, but there are very few who actually do it."
"I am not a saint and cannot prevent all evil things in the world, so there are always omissions. Here, I would like to apologize to you in advance."
After speaking, Li Chen raised his hands and saluted solemnly.
It was unprecedented in ancient times to salute the people with the dignity of a prince.
Chen Tong, Zheng Baorong and others were frightened and hurriedly knelt down.
The people were also frightened and got out of the way. No one dared to stand in front of Li Chen to receive this gift. Then when they saw Zheng Baorong, they all knelt down and hurriedly knelt down.
Suddenly, no one stood upright in this small world.
