Chapter 551: From now on, there will be no more court battles
The huge Hall of Supreme Harmony has its own amplification effect, and He Zongyan's words are also sonorous and powerful, and the sound echoes back and forth with a somewhat powerful tone.
Wang Xuan smacked his lips, turned around, and looked He Zongyan up and down. There was a pair of deep eyes on the old face, and there was a sense of calmness in the eyes. There was no violent emotion in the eyes staring at Wang Xuan.
The changes made it impossible to tell whether he really disliked Wang Xuan's behavior of contempt for imperial power, or whether he simply wanted to gain fame or attract Wang Xuan's attention.
Turning their heads to look around, He Zongyan's words caused everyone to look at Wang Xuan. There were scrutiny, joy, indifference, and various emotions in their eyes. Then they looked back at the aloof Emperor Tianqi. Although he was young,
, but the deep hostility and dissatisfaction can also be seen in the frowned brows and closed lips at this moment.
"Are you scolding me?" Wang Xuan looked at He Zongyan expressionlessly and said.
"If you want to do something treasonous and unethical, you will be a traitor and traitor. Everyone in the world will find it and punish you!" He Zongyan's eyes wavered slightly and he said loudly again.
"It's not that I look down on Cao Ah Ma, but he is so much worse than me!" This is not bragging. The difference is not in intelligence, but in the various insights brought about by the explosion of knowledge.
Wang Xuan turned around and stood at the foot of the steps leading to the dragon throne. He looked at the civil and military ministers and said loudly: "There are still people who agree with this..."
He raised his finger and pointed, but he didn't know He Zongyan's name, so he had to continue: "What do you think this old man thinks?"
Old, old man!?
Actually, you don’t know me?
He Zongyan rubbed his ears when he heard this. He was a veteran of the Wanli, Taichang and Tianqi dynasties. He was highly virtuous and respected, and diligent in admonishing the prime minister. He was a junior master of the first rank and the crown prince's grand master, a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and a bachelor of the Jidian Palace.
He looked at Wang Xuan in disbelief and almost lost his temper. Then he realized that Wang Xuan must have deliberately pretended not to know him. After all, he was a veteran of three dynasties and was famous. How could someone not know him? He must be trying to pass him by.
This way suppresses my momentum!
Thinking of this, a trace of disdain flashed across the corner of He Zongyan's mouth and disappeared instantly.
Looking around, two more people stood up and glared at Wang Xuan,
Seeing that no one came out, Wang Xuan smiled indifferently, "Every time this happens, someone always stands up and says something that is either high-sounding or impassioned... nonsense. I have never understood what your intention is in saying these things.
What?"
After saying this, Wang Xuan raised his left hand, and his five fingers slightly turned into claws. The internal energy in his body surged, and he shook his hand towards He Zongyan, dragon grasping hand!
"Ah~!"
He Zongyan felt that he lost control of his body in an instant and flew directly in the direction of Wang Xuan. He let out a long series of screams in mid-air.
Wang Xuan didn't see any movement, only a bright sword light suddenly appeared in the air, and slashed towards He Zongyan's neck, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, dazzling, dazzling, and heart-wrenching.
The light of the knife passed by.
He Zongyan suddenly paused in mid-air, as if he had hit an invisible wall of air. With this collision, the head separated in mid-air, and the blood pressure generated by the heart's compression spurted out from the broken neck, and the head flew up.
At the same time, the headless corpse fell to the ground with a dull sound, followed immediately by the human head, which rolled away for a long distance and accidentally stopped in front of the two people who had just stood up.
No one could clearly see how Wang Xuan drew and retracted the sword. By the time everyone reacted from the shock, He Zongyan's body had been separated. Before anyone could scream, the two guys who stood up suddenly fell to the ground.
, while moving backward, he let out a scream that was not like a human voice.
These two were just literati. They could not lift their hands or shoulders. They had never killed a chicken in their lives. Suddenly, their boss was beheaded in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The bloody heads stared at them with frightened and confused eyes.
, the unprecedented fear made the two scream uncontrollably.
Wang Xuan turned his head and dug his ears. It was hard for him to imagine that a man could make a scream as sharp as a woman's. His voice was frightened, weak, pitiful, and helpless, but...ahem.
Before these two screams stopped, a sharp scream from a boy came from behind. Wang Xuan twitched the corner of his mouth. This situation made him feel like an absolute villain BOSS.
It took a long time before the screams slowly stopped. Wang Xuan slowly came to the two of them, looked at them condescendingly, and said in a soft voice: "I'm sorry, I was so quick that I forgot to ask him what he meant by that.
Can you two tell me?"
"I, I, I..." The two of them looked at Wang Xuan's indifferent eyes, with only fear in their hearts and no other thoughts.
"If you can't even answer a question, then what are you still alive for?" Wang Xuan pulled out the long knife in his hand at an extremely slow speed, "I have never understood, what is the use of such a face-to-face scolding? It can make people immediately
Do you agree with your thoughts and then repent and change your past mistakes?"
Wang Xuan gently slapped the opponent's face with a long knife. The cold blade made the hairs on his body explode. The cold touch of death made his mind clear up instantly. He said with an unprecedented speed: "No, no, spare my life, sir."
!”
"That makes me afraid of your sharp words and makes me shrink back?"
"cannot!"
"That's weird. Tell me, why do you do this?"
"Just to earn a reputation for being loyal, upright, and upright." Xu Shi felt that it was really embarrassing for him to say this, and it made the Ming Dynasty's predecessors who were famous for contradicting the emperor and being punished also be embarrassed.
, the man lowered his head in fear.
It wasn't until this moment that they realized how big a mistake they had made. Wang Xuan was not the emperor!
In their hearts, everything Wang Xuan did was for the throne of the emperor. Starting from the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty, when they encountered those who found reasons to contradict the emperor to death,
Even if they explode with anger, it is mostly due to patience. After all, at best, it is just to blame. Not only can't they vent their anger, but it also contributes to their reputation, making generations of courtiers more enthusiastic about contradicting the emperor in order to seek court battles.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is because of this inertial thinking that they will shout out in the court to scold Wang Xuan. If Wang Xuan still wants to reach the position of emperor, he must show enough
He was magnanimous and did not criticize sinners. It was precisely because Li Shimin pardoned the criminals and directly admonished Wei Zheng that there was a generation that used people as a mirror, and his name was left in history. Future emperors, as long as they are not a generation of faint kings, have always paid great attention to this point.
of.
As for Wang Xuan, in their eyes, he was definitely not a foolish king.
But now it seems... I don’t know if it’s because of the stupid emperor, but he is definitely more ruthless than ever before, and it’s not like that emperor who directly drew his sword to kill people in the court hall!
Only when they truly faced life and death did they realize that they were not as fearless as they thought. Fear was like an uncontrollable towering tree growing crazily in their hearts, completely controlling their bodies and minds.
"Han Chuang has been studying hard for more than ten years, and once he got to the Jinluan Palace, did he pay all this just to get a reputation by doing evil things? This is sorry for yourself, and also sorry for the official position given to you by the imperial court. Your thoughts are not in the right place, isn't this?
Are you just evil-minded? Then what else does the court want you to do?" Wang Xuan asked and answered his own question, without giving the other party a chance to speak. He flashed the long knife again in his hand, and two heads rose into the sky, with blood spraying out of them. Wang Xuan waved his hand.
The internal force is swept away.
The head and body fell on the gold bricks of the hall, making a dull clang sound that echoed back and forth in the dead silence of the hall, ringing in everyone's heart like a death knell.
Fang Congzhe, Gao Panlong and the others looked at each other, with a flash of fear in their eyes. It seemed that the development of the matter had deviated from their expectations and was running wildly in an unknown direction.
After dealing with these three young men, Wang Xuan walked to the front of the hall again and looked up at Tian Qi who was sitting on the throne. The sound of his dragon robe did not bring any majesty. The fear on his face was visible to the naked eye, "We are the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
, each generation is really inferior to the last. There is only one righteous person who still retains a bit of the style of his ancestors. But it is a pity that he was killed by the minister of the DPRK inexplicably. Zhu Youxiao, you are not young anymore.
Look at you, let alone killing people, it is really disappointing to see a dead person behave like this."
Wang Xuan's words deeply hurt Emperor Tianqi. Emperor Ming had always adhered to the ancestral motto of the emperor guarding the country. He was an emperor anyway. The word "emperor" alone could not allow him to express himself in front of others.
Showing a hint of fear.
Looking at Emperor Apocalypse who was clenching his teeth to suppress his fear, Wang Xuan smiled slightly, "Yes, it should be like this. The emperor should look like an emperor. The feudal dynasty played with centralization. As an emperor, if you are surrounded by a group of people all day long,
If my subordinates are to restrain you, then why do you do so much?"
"Zhu Youxiao, it's done above. Take a good look at how I did it. As for the throne of your old Zhu family, I can tell you clearly that I have no interest at all, so I have to think about what I have and what I don't.
, why not learn from me."
Wang Xuan didn't care whether Zhu Youxiao believed it or not, and he didn't care about the surprised, puzzled, madman-like eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. He turned around and looked at the civil and military officials again.
"Fang Congzhe." As soon as these three words came out of Wang Xuan's mouth, the Hall of Supreme Harmony immediately became audible. Everyone could see that Wang Xuan was going to settle accounts with Fang Congzhe and the others.
Just a few words of indifferent scolding caused Wang Xuan to directly kill three people. Now it was Fang Congzhe and others' turn, and everyone's hearts were tense.
This is not because of how close they are to Fang Congzhe or how worried they are for Fang Congzhe, but because it is inevitable that Wang Xuan will take control of the court in the future, so the treatment of Fang Congzhe and others will also mean that Wang Xuan will be in control of Fang Congzhe for a period of time in the future.
code of conduct.
Fang Congzhe's heart sank. He closed his eyes and opened them again. He took a deep breath and slowly walked out of the queue.
At this moment, all the court ministers present, including Duke Dingguo, could clearly feel that Fang Congzhe had a slight stoop in his figure. In the past, when he was the chief minister of the court, he was one person below ten thousand people.
Most of his spirit was gone, and an old look suddenly appeared.
No matter how many grievances and disputes there were in the past, I can't help but feel a little sad at this moment. From now on for who knows how long, it will be difficult to see the power and majesty of the imperial officials in the past.
(A new world will be opened soon... The long-lasting Ming Dynasty is coming to an end. I'm so disappointed...)
