Chapter 927 Please Your Highness Write an Edict of Guilt
Chapter 927 Please ask His Highness to write an edict of sin against oneself
Sin yourself edict!
As the name suggests, the edict for sinners is an edict used by people to state their sins and faults.
To put it bluntly, it is a highest-standard version of a self-examination and confession.
But the problem is that since it is an edict, only the emperor can issue it.
As for the emperor, as the supreme leader of the entire country in the feudal era, he has a family, a family, a family, and a family. The people and everything in the world belong to the emperor. Could he be wrong?
The emperor must maintain his image of being always right, never making mistakes, and always holy at all times.
Otherwise, once the image collapses, the emperor will have another nickname: Hunjun.
And once the edict of sin is issued, it means that the emperor himself admits that he is a foolish emperor.
Therefore, throughout the history of China, there are only a few emperors who have actually issued edicts of sin.
And almost all of them were written under the same circumstances.
When the state power encounters internal and external troubles and is about to perish.
At this time, in order to win the hearts of the people, to solidify the cohesion of the civil servants and generals around him, and to make them work harder for him, the emperor would write a self-incriminating edict.
The general meaning is that I know that what I did before was not good enough and I did many things wrong. Now that I know I made a mistake, I confess to the world, and you can continue to work hard for me.
And almost none of the emperors who wrote edicts about sin had a good ending.
So the symbolic meaning of this thing is far greater than the actual meaning.
Its symbolic meaning is to destroy the emperor's sanctity.
At present, Li Chen is the crown prince of the Qin Empire and has the power to supervise the country, so he can issue edicts for his own crimes.
The purpose of this sinful edict was to destroy his possibility of ascending to the throne.
Let me ask, when he became the prince, he admitted that he was incompetent and made constant mistakes. How could such a prince become a qualified emperor?
So when Li Yinhu stated his request, the already quiet Hall of Supreme Harmony became even deadlier.
The place was obviously full of people, but not a single sound came out.
The entire solemn and solemn Hall of Supreme Harmony had a bit of a cold and terrifying atmosphere.
After Li Yinhu finished speaking his words, he lowered his head and waited for Li Chen's violent storm.
According to their calculations yesterday, it was absolutely impossible for Li Chen to write this self-incriminating edict, and he would definitely be furious.
However, Li Yinhu's mission ends here.
His role is to make Li Chen furious, and Zhao Xuanji and the others will intervene in what happens next.
What Li Yinhu didn't expect was that what he was waiting for was not Li Chen's roars and questions, but a deathly silence.
This oppressive and uncomfortable silence didn't know how long it lasted, but Li Chen's voice came from above.
"Why does King Zhao think that this palace has messed up the rules of the court and the rules of the court, but he doesn't say what happened?"
Li Yinhu frowned.
What specific things are still important?
Isn’t it important that the interests of both parties are competing for each other?
However, when the words came to him, Zhao Xuanji had no intention of speaking at this time. Li Yinhu could only bite the bullet and replied: "Your Highness's wedding is a good thing for everyone to celebrate, but His Highness used the name of the wedding to engage in extortion and extortion.
, openly and openly soliciting bribes from the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and countless officials in the imperial court became worried about this matter."
"The salaries of our Daqin officials are not high, and it is difficult to support a family. Your Highness wants them to spend money to satisfy His Highness. Doesn't this force the civil and military officials to go down and impose exorbitant taxes on the people?"
"If His Highness is like this, how can you not follow suit?"
