As soon as the person who supported Liang Yuqiang appeared, all the officials were stunned, not that this person was very authoritative, but that this person was too small. Because not only did he never speak in the main hall, but even the superintendent to which he belonged rarely had the opportunity to speak.

He does not belong to the Six Ministries, nor is he a real power department like Honglu Temple in Dali Temple, and his status is not even as good as that of the palace guards.

The hundred officials looked at this person's official uniform, and he was a deputy of the Qin Heavenly Prison.

They couldn't even call him by name.

That is to say, a department in charge of calendar fortune-telling, a department that usually has no status to speak in the temple, but now there is a person in this department who stands up and says to everyone that Liang Yuqiang's words are true.

The emperor watched this person go to His Royal Highness and bow to him, raised his lips and smiled: "The Ministry of War and the Tai Hospital said that there is no one, the Ministry of Household says that there is no money, the Ministry of Industry plays Tai Chi, Yifeng Aiqing, you said at this time that what Lord Liang said is true, how do you let me make a decision?"

Baiguan's heart jumped, such an inconspicuous person was actually known by the emperor.

How did they know that Yifeng was born as a Taoist priest, and was once recommended by Dao Yan to Qintianjian, and the yellow calendar printed in the palace every year was compiled by him.

The emperor has an indescribable friendship with Dao Yan, surpassing the monarch and ministers, so he has some impressions of Yifeng.

Yi Feng arched his slender arm and said, "Wei Chen looks at the sky at night, a large number of stars will fall in the east, indicating the loss of vitality and life, this is a bad omen." ”

According to folklore, a star represents this person, which means that many people will die.

The officials were in an uproar again.

Even the familiar voice of "above the main hall, it is forbidden to talk to each other" did not appear after waiting for a while, which shows that the adult who maintained order was also shocked.

The emperor's face sank: "Is this true?" These words were said by the people of Qin Tianjian, which was much more convincing than others.

Yifeng still looked solemn and ruthless, and nodded: "Exactly." ”

After receiving a positive answer, the discussion of the officials became louder.

Lord Zuo Ju said suddenly: "Holy Lord, this deputy eunuch is clearly a strange power and chaos, the Holy Lord is the Daoming Monarch, and all the four seas have surrendered, and now it is the peace of the country and the people, how can there be the star phenomenon that the deputy lord of the prison said will appear as a monarch like you?"

When everyone heard this, their hearts moved, and they all looked at Yifeng, does that mean do you mean that our saint is a faint king?

Did the emperor make any mistakes?

If it weren't for the emperor's mistake, how could such an astrological sign occur?

In this era, any ominous omen in the sky is associated with the meritocracy of the county king.

The emperor listened to Lord Zuo's words, and his face turned black all of a sudden, but he didn't directly scold Yifeng, saying that he was weird.

Fang Jinglong saw that the emperor was angry, his heart was happy, and he stepped forward to make his position clear.

"Saint, this Lord Liang listened to a few words of strange words, so he took the palace to bully the emperor, if he really followed his method, it would inevitably cause panic among the officials, panic in the capital, and unease people's hearts. In the opinion of Wei Chen, Lord Liang should be taken off the official mansion and fought a hundred sticks. ”

Most of the officials were nodding.

Lord Liang's eyebrows frowned slightly, and then he faced the emperor calmly: "Shengshang, Weichen is willing to use Xiangshang's head as a guarantee, if there is no plague by then, the emperor will behead Weichen, but now we must take precautions to prevent it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he knelt down and slammed his knees on the ground paved with gold bricks, making a powerful crashing sound.

Now it's Fang Jinglong's turn and Baiguan frowned, this is too hard, how can you believe in that mountain hermit so much?

The soldier said, "Lord Han, have you been lowered, and you want to use your life as a guarantee?"

Lord Han said fearlessly: "I hope that I can be executed by the Holy Decree at that time, which means that the plague has not come, and no one will be ruined." ”

The emperor's slender eyes narrowed into a sharp arc and looked at Tobe Shangshu.

Hubu Shangshu understood, and said stubbornly: "Holy Sanshang, it's only the end of the New Year, and the tax grain can't be collected until the end of autumn, and it's not a small amount to buy medicinal materials and organize manpower." ”

The military department and the Tai Hospital are also the original point of view, that is, even if the emperor agrees, these people are not willing to cooperate.

Lord Liang's heart was slightly cold.

Yifeng knelt beside him at this time, he didn't say anything, but with him side by side, this attitude already said something.

At least there is one person who believes in himself, and Lord Han feels better.

The two of them insisted like this, and the atmosphere in the hall was a little heavy.

The emperor looked at His Royal Highness's courtiers, and he didn't know which one to believe, believing in Liang Yuqiang and Yifeng, but would there really be such a tragedy in the world he governed?

His heart trembled, and he suddenly thought about how he came to be on the throne.

It's the throne of more nephews, is God finally going to settle accounts with him?

The emperor's face turned pale.

Han Gang Shangshu happened to be on Liang Yuqiang's side, and secretly kicked his ass, Liang Yuqiang felt the slight force behind his buttocks, first stunned, and then his heart was quiet, he looked up at the emperor's expression, the emperor should be very reluctant to this matter, if it really happened, it seems that he is the king has no way, and other departments, if these people are unwilling to cooperate, even if the emperor allocates people, it will also cause a waste of manpower, and the silver will also receive the pockets of corrupt officials.

After he figured it out, he arched his hand: "Holy Lord, this matter may be seen later, but the minister asks the Holy One to make a will." ”

"What will?"

Liang Yuqiang said: "Weichen's performance today, after the next dynasty, will inevitably be discussed by hundreds of officials, and it will spread outside the palace, even in the streets and alleys, and even in the suburbs." If there is no measure, if people are so false, they may not know what it will become, and then people will be panicked, so please ask the Holy Decree that no one can discuss this matter when they go out of the temple. ”

Hubu Shangshu said: "Lord Liang, do you still know that it will cause panic among the people?"

Liang Yuqiang looked at him with stubborn eyes: "If the government takes measures and shows the truth to the people, don't exaggerate, it will only cause the people to be cautious, which is called prevention." Only rumors without restraint will make the people feel panicked, don't adults understand this truth?"

Tobe Shangshu's face was stunned, and he flicked his sleeves and snorted.

Liang Yuqiang turned back to the emperor and said, "Holy Lord, please decide." ”

Han Gang also knelt down: "Holy Lord, this matter should be discussed from the beginning, but the people's hearts must be stabilized first, and this matter cannot be spread outside the hall." ”

Many officials also knew the seriousness of this matter, and they knelt down one after another: "Please make an order from the Holy Authority." Then the other officials who had no position or other position also knelt down.

The emperor said with a heavy face: "What Han Aiqing said today, no one is allowed to spread it, otherwise the court will be executed." ”

The hundred officials shouted the emperor Shengming.

After the ceremony was completed, Fang Jinglong admonished the emperor: "Holy Lord, the person who spread the rumors is Lord Liang, and the person who doesn't let the rumors spread it is also him, it can be seen that he is swaying from side to side, when the court is a place for children to play, he goes back on his word and despises the emperor, such an official, the emperor must give punishment, so that the hundred officials can take it as a warning, otherwise in the future, above the court, won't everyone be able to believe it?"

Most officials chimed in.

The emperor's eyes sank, looked at Liang Yuqiang and said, "What else does Liang Aiqing have to say?"

Liang Yuqiang said: "Shengshang, if there is no plague after March, Weichen is willing to apologize to the Shengshang with death, but it is not yet March, and Lord Fang said that Weichen is a believer, which is too early to assert. ”

The emperor bowed slightly.

Fang Jinglong wants to fight again: "Your Majesty ......"

The emperor said: "Okay, Liang Aiqing's head will be temporarily deposited on his neck." Looking at Liang Yuqiang's gaze, he became cold again: "If there is no plague in March, I will definitely take Aiqing's head and cure him for the crime of deceiving the king with his evil words." ”

His tone was cold, not to mention Liang Yuqiang, even unrelated people felt a chill behind him.

didn't have time to react, he said: "Although this matter can't be counted, don't take it lightly, the people of the household department and the Five Cities Terracotta Division will monitor the lives of the people in the city at any time in the near future, and if there is anything wrong, report it immediately." ”

Liang Yuqiang said in his heart, and he didn't explain the situation to the people, but he also sent people to monitor the people's movements, so wouldn't it cause more panic and suspicion at that time?

He wanted to admonish again, but seeing that the emperor had stood up from the dragon chair with a heavy expression, the eunuch shouted again at this moment to retreat, and he had no chance to say anything. (To be continued.) )
