Before Mr. Yuan could speak, he heard Fu Han say angrily:

"What else do you need, pull her family over directly, chop off a hand for her to see, let her choose for herself, is the family important, or the wolf-hearted dog emperor is important!"

Mr. Yuan immediately frowned and shouted angrily:

"Nonsense, you're trying to make her throw herself completely to the emperor's side!"

Bai Chenghuan looked at the two of them angrily, and he was actually a little sad.

Yao Zezan, the prince of Ningguo, who was like a spring breeze back then, was finally turned into such a bloody and decisive person by the ruthless emperor.

And he will eventually stain his hands with blood and will never wash them again.

Bai Chenghuan's heart was turbulent, but his expression was faint after all:

"It's too bloody to chop your hands, so it's better to send a few strands of hair over. ”

Mr. Yuan was silent, nodded in approval, and added:

"Zhan Shichun's side, do you want to breathe?"

"Naturally, it is wanted. Bai Chenghuan waved his hand, and a chill flashed in his eyes:

"You don't have to quarrel about this matter anymore, since the matter has come to this point, you don't have to stop it anymore, it is more appropriate to act according to the situation. And let the emperor arouse the people's anger again, besides, this people's anger will be much more serious than before. ”

Fu Han glanced up at Bai Chenghuan, and when he lowered his head again, he had already made a calculation.

Just half a day later, public opinion in the capital was detonated.

And this time, the center of public opinion is no longer just the insignificant ordinary people and the courtiers who have long been surprised by the emperor's absurd behavior, but have become the tributes who are about to participate in the palace examination and can enter the rank and the first rank and the person who failed in the examination at the beginning!

These tributes, as long as they take one step forward, can become the protégés of the Son of Heaven, and they will become the pillars of the emperor in the future, and those who have fallen can also be candidates for supplementary officials - to put it bluntly, these people are the new hope of the Great Qi Dynasty after the contradiction between the emperor and the courtiers deepens.

But today, the emperor ordered the princess of King Qin to change her name to avoid the name of Empress Xiaoyuan.

And some people even said conclusively that the princess of King Qin was not convinced, but the emperor said that all the people in the world should avoid it, and those who do not change their names will not be allowed to become officials in the imperial examination!

Immediately, some scholars asked their relatives who were officials in the court to confirm, and the news they got was that the emperor did let the princess of King Qin change her name, and as for the scholars and the people, the emperor probably had this intention!

The streets and alleys of the capital are lively, and they suddenly become noisy.

There are people everywhere in the capital who are in the teahouse restaurant to comment on current affairs, discuss the government and politics, the emperor's behavior from last year to this year, and have been turned out one by one, and the emperor's "mediocre" notoriety has completely penetrated the ears of all scholars!

Originally, when they were outside the imperial bureau in the capital, these sincere students heard about the emperor's various actions, and always felt that the emperor was like this because there was no direct minister to advise and no capable minister to assist, but now, when they stepped into the capital, stood at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and fell into this huge whirlpool in person, they found that the emperor's immorality was far from being as simple as they imagined!

"For the sake of a dead person, the emperor regards all the people as grass mustard first, and evil spirits in the middle hall last, and now he wants all the people to avoid the queen's name, so what is the scholar who regards us as studying hard and serving the country wholeheartedly?

The gentleman was clear and upright, and he talked with emotion, and there were many people who echoed him.

"What Brother Tai said is extremely true, it is the right way for us to serve the king, how can we bow to the evil ghosts? Could it be that I, a seven-foot man with Jin Huanrong, also want to change my name for Empress Xiaoyuan?"

"What's even more ridiculous is that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu actually took Lu Pheasant in the past as an example, but he didn't want to think about what a cruel woman Lu Hou was!

"Yes, if the emperor humiliates us and other scholars for such a wicked woman, then this official career, don't step on it, be an outsider who is idle and wild, and avoid such humiliation!"

Yao Kai, the deputy commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, was urgently summoned into the palace by the emperor, and was ordered to lead people all over the city to arrest the scholars who discussed the government in vain.

He ordered the arrest to slow down slightly.

Their Yao family, because they were implicated in the Ning Guogong case that year, have had a difficult time all these years, and finally their brother also participated in the examination this spring, and was admitted to the Gongshi, seeing that Dengke was hopeful, but his name was "Yao Cheng"!

If so, wouldn't his brother have to change his name as well?

If you don't change it, you will definitely be blamed when you take the temple exam, but if you change it, where is the household registration can be changed in a day or two!

Yao Kai was in a complicated mood, thought about it, gritted his teeth, deliberately took a step slow, and let people go in first to disturb him, before he personally took people in and hastily grabbed a few people to fill the number.

When the emperor heard Fang Handong's panicked statement, he was angry, he obviously only wanted the princess of King Qin to change his name, how could he involve all the people and scholars!

These hateful things will be used to play on the topic and pick quarrels and provoke trouble!

The ambergris in the room burned faintly, and the emperor only felt a buzzing in his head, and the violent air pressure hidden in his heart poured out uncontrollably:

"The person who led the rebellion will be immediately imprisoned, and three days later, he will be strangled at the entrance of the vegetable market, and his body will be exposed for ten days, so as to set an example!"

Fifty percent of the people handed over by the soldiers and horses suddenly became the chickens used by the emperor to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, and the emperor's will completely caused turmoil!

Since the time of Emperor Taizu, the Great Qi scholars have had the freedom to discuss politics, and they have never been in such a situation as they are today.

As soon as the emperor's will to kill the scholars came out, some people immediately raised their arms and shouted that the emperor was unfair, and the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division Yamen who held those people were then hit by the scholars stranded in the capital, and asked to meet the emperor and release the arrested scholars, so that the soldiers guarding the Yamen would not be tolerant to these people.

The courtiers begged to see the emperor one after another, and the emperor Xi Zeyan also dragged his sick body to appease the scholars, but the emperor insisted on going his own way and refused to see any courtiers.

In just two days, among the tributes and the princes, there were dozens of people who were arrested, and there were many casualties in the chaos, and even if many scholars were safe and sound, they were eventually disheartened by the emperor and the court, and the number of people who abandoned the examination was too numerous to mention.

This year's Spring Festival, before the palace test, became a miserable farce.

In Weibei Houfu, Bai Chenghuan dropped a son on the chessboard, looking at her father sitting opposite her with dark eyes.

"In this game, we can be considered to have won......"

After all, it is to let the emperor and the pillars he is about to get separated.

Weibei Hou is not shocked:

"The world is like this, no one can blame it, the emperor is unkind, he turns his back on the world, and the people of the world should abandon it. ”

On Bai Chenghuan's way back to the Qin Palace, there was no trace of chaos on the wide streets, and summer was coming, and it seemed that it had never changed year after year.

But she knew that she herself had changed.

Xiao Shaotang, at this moment, do you like to see me like this?
