Wang Tenghuan is now over fifty, and he may not seem too old, but in the Qin Empire where the average life expectancy is only fifty-five years old, he is already considered a veritable old man.
His old arms and legs could not withstand a kick from the young and strong Li Chen.
I saw Wang Tenghuan holding his stomach and rolling his body several times on the ground like a gourd.
The originally clean official uniforms were stained with a lot of mud and snow, making them look extremely miserable.
This scene was beyond everyone's expectation.
Li Chen pointed at Wang Tenghuan and shouted angrily: "Old man, who do you think you are? Are you saying that I am provoking the imperial court?"
"In this world, the person whose surname is Li is not the king. The people who lead the land are not the king's soil. The ministers who lead the land are not the king's ministers. This king is the lord of the world, not the king with your surname!"
"If I want to rectify the officialdom, in your eyes, I am provoking the imperial court!? Why does the imperial court exist? Because of who? You have been reading this for decades, but you haven't understood the Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Rules with the king as the key link!?"
Amidst Li Chen's angry scolding, Wang Tenghuan stood up shakily with his body propped up.
His hair was disheveled, and his face was half pale with pain and half red with anger, making him look as ferocious as a demon.
"Prince! You insulted me like this! I will never give up!"
The murderous intent in Li Chen's eyes skyrocketed.
"Okay, I'm so good at never giving up."
"It seems that you hate me. If I keep you, you will definitely do the same thing in the future. From this point of view, I must not keep you!"
After Li Chen finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and robe.
"Someone's coming!"
Behind him, two royal guards immediately stepped forward and knelt on one knee in front of Li Chen.
Li Chen was about to give an order.
Among the people brought behind Wang Tenghuan, more than ten dead soldiers came forward in an instant.
Their division of labor was clear, half of them protected Wang Tenghuan, and the other half stared at Li Chen with cold eyes.
It seems that as soon as Li Chen utters the order to execute Wang Tenghuan, a bloody battle is just around the corner.
Li Chen looked past the dead soldiers and landed on Wang Tenghuan, saying: "Wang Tenghuan, do you want to rebel?"
In any dynasty, the word rebellion is definitely a huge crime.
Regardless of any reason or any force, as long as it has anything to do with these two words, it will not only suffer a thunderous blow from the imperial power, but will also be nailed to the pillar of shame, reviled by all the people, and will be infamy for thousands of years.
No matter how angry Wang Tenghuan was, he never lost his mind enough to associate himself with rebellion.
"Prince, please don't slander others! The veteran minister is loyal to the emperor and loyal to the court. Heaven and earth can learn from it, and the sun and moon can show it!"
"But right now, the prince is still just a prince and has not yet ascended the throne. His title is still very popular!"
"The prince acts so cruelly and domineeringly, without any regard for the feelings of his loyal ministers. The old minister is only protecting himself. When he returns to the capital, he must join forces with the ministers to write a letter asking the prince to give up his power to supervise the country!"
Anyway, Wang Tenghuan's words were extremely domineering and mean. He stared at Li Chen and said confidently: "Prince, don't think that just because you are in charge of the country, you can treat the world as nothing. There are countless veterans like this in the court."
A loyal and upright person will definitely not tolerate the prince's mischief!"
Wang Tenghuan speaks tactfully and with great ambition.
In his opinion, the prince must bow his head if not bow his head today.
But what he saw was not the aggrieved and angry look in the prince's eyes as he imagined, but the cold and pure murderous intent.
At this moment, in the northern suburbs of the capital, flags were fluttering and the sound of horse hooves was deafening, pushing in from the north like a tide.
Look at the flag, it's the flag of the Habayashi Guards.
Wang Tenghuan's pride froze on his face.
The prince's ruthlessness was much beyond his imagination.
The army was actually used directly!
"Old man, you said that I am domineering and ruthless, so today, I will show you how domineering and ruthless I am!"
