Chapter 774

Chapter 774: Taihe Palace scolds the prince

The middle-aged official had finally managed to get up to speed, and was naturally unwilling to give up at this time.

He gritted his teeth and said, "These are indeed the words from the bottom of my heart! Your Highness doesn't like to hear it, but it's the truth."

"Do you know what bothers me the most about you guys?"

Li Chen couldn't bear it anymore and yelled angrily: "What bothers me the most is that you all act sanctimonious and care about the world, but in fact, privately you are all thinking about your own interests and benefits."

"If it's beneficial, you pounce on it like a mad dog; if it's not beneficial, just avoid it like a snake or scorpion."

"When the interests of the collective conflict with your personal interests, you will jump out and talk about benevolence, justice and morality. Each of you will turn into an upright and good official who asks for orders for the people. You will accuse others of their faults and even point your finger at me.

, you think that as long as you open your mouth and curse, you will be a loyal minister, an upright official, and your name will go down in history."

"But I don't want to serve you guys!"

Having said this, Li Chen said coldly: "Drag him down to me and chop him down!"

After giving the order for the second time, the two guards who had been thrown away did not dare to neglect anymore and pounced directly on the middle-aged official and knocked him down.

This time, he didn't have the strength to fight back.

But supported by the desire to survive, he was still struggling and roaring.

"Your Highness, you are so cruel and you will be punished by God!"

Seeing that his life could not be saved, he decided to risk his life and cursed for pleasure.

"Countless pairs of eyes, both in the court and among the people, are looking at you, watching the moment you are despised by all the people!"

At this moment, several officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, please think twice."

After these officials spoke, many officials immediately followed.

"Your Highness, please think twice."

Within a period of time, more than two-thirds of the officials in the court were begging for mercy.

And these officials, not only the cabinet factions, but also most of the neutral parties are also pleading for mercy.

In the cabinet department, Zhao Xuanji remained as stable as Mount Tai.

As if aware of Li Chen's gaze, Zhao Xuanji opened his eyes and said calmly: "The killing weapon is sharp, but it can hurt yourself if you don't use it well. Does your highness think so?"

"Nowadays, there is no room for chaos in the Great Qin court. If there is chaos, the Liao Kingdom will see it, and there will be a risk of being taken advantage of in an instant. It can be said that the entire Great Qin Empire is already in turmoil, but now this thunder has not fallen.

At that time, did His Highness think so?"

"If His Highness and his ministers are at odds with each other, and the political situation is in turmoil, how will they overcome the difficulties in the face of internal and external pressure? Does Your Highness think so?"

Three consecutive sentences of denial pushed Li Chen to the edge of the cliff.

The middle-aged man tried to lure Zhao Xuanji out.

Right now, there is a direct confrontation between the cabinet and the East Palace.

It was also a direct confrontation between Zhao Xuanji and Li Chen.

Zhao Xuanji's words were very clear. If Li Chen insisted on killing him, the political situation would be turbulent and the world would be in chaos.

The Liao delegation is still there, and Yelu Shenxuan will not give up after suffering such a huge loss. If the government is in chaos and the prince and officials turn against each other, Liao will probably be the most happy one.

Zhao Xuanji took advantage of the dual threats of the government and the Liao Kingdom to force Li Chen to retreat.

Facing the persecution of the ministers and Zhao Xuanji, Li Chen's eyes slowly fell on the two guards holding down the middle-aged officials.

When he opened his mouth, it was a shocking sentence.

"Can't you hear what I say?"
