Chapter 44: A Change of Dynasty
The surviving ministers in the main hall wiped the sweat from their foreheads and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
After looking at each other, they also retired to the emperor.
After a long time, when the hall was quiet and the emperor's face was shrouded in shadows, he scolded viciously: "Demon monk!"
Even if Pudu Cihang is a demon, he is at least respectful to him on weekdays!
What is this Fahai? Relying on some supernatural powers, so unscrupulous, and quite a protector mage? He also deserves it!
The eunuch next to him trembled and didn't dare to make a sound.
There was silence again.
After a long time, he spoke again, and his mood had calmed down: "Send a team of people to tie up all the monks of Jinshan Temple, and let them pay attention not to reveal their identities." β
The emperor's face was extremely cold, and he paused for a moment before adding, "Wait, let those worshippers follow, lest this demon monk leave any followers in Jinshan Temple." β
As for why not deal with Fahai directly......
Although a few offerings have some ability, in the final analysis, they are just taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, and it is a bit whimsical to want them to work hard.
Even Pudu Cihang didn't bother to provoke them, let alone Fahai, who could kill them.
......
Out of the palace gate, Fahai didn't look back and knew that the other two were following him, he slowed down, and when the two followed, he spoke first without waiting for them to speak, and said meaningfully: "Worldly authority and false name make you kneel, but I hope you can stand up." β
Between the emperor and himself, both of them made a choice that satisfied Fahai, so he didn't care about revealing some of his inner thoughts.
"The people are always ignorant and ignorant, and it is not something that can be done overnight, and in such a situation, the rise and fall of a country depends on the wisdom of those in power. β
Fahai said calmly: "Obviously, the current emperor is not a Ming monarch, otherwise he would not be bewitched by Pudu Cihang and make the people of the world miserable." β
Seeing that the two of them were about to speak, Fahai directly interrupted: "Before you speak, I want to ask you a question, is your loyalty loyal to the imperial power or loyal to the people of the world?"
"Your Majesty just mistakenly believes in demons, isn't it?"
Zuo Qianhu's martial artist hadn't figured it out yet, but Fu Tianqiu had already roughly understood what Fahai meant, and couldn't help but say: "Master, if you want to change the dynasty, I'm afraid the world will be even more chaotic!"
A change of dynasty?!
Zuo Qianhu's face changed greatly, and he subconsciously vetoed: "How can you do such a big rebellious thing?!"
"Whose way is it against the grain?" Fahai glanced at the palace behind him indifferently, "However, since you all think that the Son of Heaven is still saved, then it is okay to continue to watch, but the preparations that should be made must be done." β
"If you rashly kill the Son of Heaven, the world will naturally become a pot of porridge. Fahai's expression was gentle, and he said step by step: "If eighty percent of the civil and military officials above the court are replaced by some wise people, and the Son of Heaven 'voluntarily' gives in, how can the world be chaotic?"
"Even if you don't have that idea right now, be prepared, even if it's right. β
Emperor? I want to see whose plan is deeper.
Although Zuo Qianhu and Fu Tianqiu thought that the Son of Heaven had the heart to repent, Fahai knew very well what this kind of superior person was.
In today's situation, it can really be said that people have the intention of hurting the tiger, and the tiger is harmful to people's hearts!
Zhao Gongming asked him to seek a high-ranking official body, is the protector mage considered high?
It doesn't matter if you don't count.
Anyway, Fahai wasn't as naΓ―ve as the other two.
After separation.
"Master's statement......" Fu Tianqiu's expression hesitated, Zuo Qianhu stared, and said in a low voice: "Master Fu, could it be that you also have the heart of rebellion?"
His attitude was a little cold: "The mage is a person outside the party, it is normal not to understand the world, Lord Fu, you are too? Now Your Majesty has repented, as a courtier, he should do his best to assist! In this way, he will live up to the emperor's grace." β
Fu Tianqiu sighed and explained, "I'm naturally not that kind of person. Even if we don't plan to change the day, we should always replace the current group of corpses and dogs, right?"
He smiled bitterly and said: "With today's matter, Your Majesty will have no worries about us in his heart? Will he rest assured that the power to rectify the dynasty will be delegated? Believe it or not, if the master leaves, I am afraid that the two of us will be beheaded immediately!"
He saw the situation very clearly, otherwise, he would not hesitate.
"Even if the master is still there, if we don't try our best, at most we will end up with a resignation and retirement from the old age, Lord Qianhu, can you rest assured that you will hand over the affairs of the court to those sycophants?"
Zuo Qianhu's brows furrowed even tighter, and after thinking about it, he had to admit that what Fu Tianqiu said was very reasonable.
In the current situation, they can't fight if they don't fight, and once they fight, the emperor will be even more jealous of them.
Then, they fall into a vicious circle.
The more fearful they are, the more they want to wield power.
Without power and power, which of those ministers in history who provoked the emperor's jealousy could end well? Which one did not die well?
Eventually, the day of falling out with His Majesty will come sooner or later.
Unless the Holy One today ignores his past suspicions and sincerely repents as he said.
After a night's rest at the inn, the next day, the emperor's appointment was delivered.
Fahai was sitting cross-legged in the guest room, when he heard a noise in the street, he opened the window and saw that several guards and an old eunuch in eunuch clothes were walking towards him, and the eunuch was holding a holy decree in both hands.
The eunuch who proclaimed the decree came.
No matter how chaotic the world is, this is at the feet of the Son of Heaven after all, even if the people in the rivers and lakes have a much higher fear of imperial power in their hearts than in other places.
For a while, there was silence in the inn, and the innkeeper trotted to the old eunuch, with a smile on his face: "This father-in-law, who are you?"
The old eunuch didn't reply, and quickly scanned the inn with his eyes, but he didn't find the fierce monk yesterday, so he had to turn his head to the shopkeeper and ask, "Where are the high monks you stayed here yesterday?"
Dignitary?
The shopkeeper's face was puzzled, where are they here?
In his impression, the people in the palace who can be called a high monk must be at least seventy or eighty, right? Therefore, he did not expect Fahai, a monk in his twenties, at all.
At this moment, the sound of clattering footsteps from upstairs was extremely obvious in the silent inn, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
A young monk with a handsome face, dressed in a pure white monk's robe, walked down from the upper floor.
"I've seen the national teacher. β
Originally, no matter who made the decree, as long as he took out the holy decree, it represented the most noble person in the world, and even if the person receiving the decree did not kneel, at least he had to bend down, raise his hands high, and take it carefully.
As a result, now it became the old eunuch with his head bowed and his hands respectfully offered, but the monk just took it casually and put it in his arms, without any respect, and everyone who saw it was extremely surprised.
