"Bump!"

After finishing speaking, Li Chengfeng slapped the dragon chair again.

Hou Junji, Li Moshu and others were once again frightened.

In fact, they used to often take advantage of the emperor's patrol to go out in groups.

They thought that the first time the Eighth Prince went to the court, the discipline would not be so dead, but the Eighth Prince's discipline was much stricter than that of the Emperor.

Sometimes, when Li Shimin went to court, some ministers did not come, and Li Shimin also turned a blind eye, because Li Shimin was used to it.

Those ministers are always able to find all kinds of reasons to confuse the past.

But this time, they couldn't get past the confusion of Li Chengfeng.

Although Li Chengfeng does not have the position of emperor, he has the power of an emperor.

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty is now waiting to see the good show of Hou Junji and Li Moshu.

It was because of the four of them, all of them were here, and they were punished for standing for a day.

The Eight Princes did not deal with the government affairs, nor did they go to the court, nor did they retreat from the court, so they sat here and waited for the monarch to gather them back.

So, a whole day was wasted.

Li Chengfeng continued: "Hou Junji, Li Moshu, Wang Cheng, Liu Weiguo! This prince is doing this in the hope that you can understand that all of you are a collective! If one person violates the rules, the collective will be punished! The four of you didn't come to the court today, and you have delayed so many people's time, how do you think the prince wants to punish you? ”

Hou Junji kowtowed and confessed, "Eighth prince, this crime, the old minister confessed!" The old minister is willing to be punished, and he asks the eighth prince to deal with it! ”

Li Moshu also kowtowed and confessed, and the words he said in Houjunji were exactly the same, and the same was true for the other two.

Li Chengfeng waved his hand and said, "Okay, since Chen Guogong and the others have confessed, then, this prince will start punishing the four of them now!" ”

"The matter of fines, this prince will not mention it! If anyone who makes a mistake is fined, it's really too cheap for them! ”

"Prime Minister Du Ruhui, may I ask, how many ministers have come to the court today?"

Li Chengfeng turned his head to look at Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui picked up the booklet in his hand, counted the list, and said: "Back to the eighth prince, except for the ministers who have not returned, there are a total of 123 ministers in the court!" ”

"Good!" Li Chengfeng nodded, then looked at Hou Junji and the other four, and said: "The four of you have wasted a day of the time of the 123 ministers here, so the four of you will be collectively responsible for these time!" ”

"123 divided by 30 equals about 4! 4 divided by 4 equals 1! ”

"So, this prince will punish the four of you and go to the foot of Dayue Mountain in Changfeng Village to dig the Grand Canal for a month!"

"Huh?"

"Ding, the shock from Hou Junji, naughty value +99!"

"Ding, the surprise from Li Moshu, naughty value +99!"

……

Li Chengfeng's punishment stunned the Manchu civil and military.

Punish the Duke of the Country, the Squire, the Ministry of Shangshu and others, to dig the Grand Canal?

These are all things that ordinary people should do, right?

Actually punished them to dig the Grand Canal? Not to mention the hot weather, just the dignified duke going to dig the Grand Canal and spreading it is enough to make people embarrassed.

There are also Hou Junji and others, who are also old, and it is okay to let them go on a business trip for a while, but if they want to withstand the hot weather of nearly 40 degrees, they will dig the Grand Canal for a month? It's going to cost them half their lives.

Some ministers began to stand up and plead for Hou Jun to gather them.

But Li Chengfeng was very iron-faced and selfless, and said: "The Son of Heaven broke the law, and he is still guilty of the same crime as the common people!" This prince is just giving Chen Guogong, Li Shilang and others some small punishments this time! ”

"If a country wants to be prosperous and strong, the most important thing is discipline! If everyone is like Chen Guogong and them, they go out to play at every turn and don't come to the court? Where is the royal face? ”

"Okay, you don't have to intercede for Chen Guogong and them! Chen Guogong, I don't know if you are dissatisfied with the punishment of this prince? ”

Li Chengfeng frowned and looked at the four of them.

Hou Junji knelt on the ground, sighed, and said, "Back to the eighth prince, the old minister is not dissatisfied!" This is the fault of the old minister, and the old minister is willing to be punished! ”

"Okay, then the four of you, start tomorrow to start the Grand Canal in Changfeng Village, and start digging the Grand Canal with the people, don't be lazy! Otherwise, if you are caught by this prince, then you will be re-convicted and punished again! ”

"Yes, the eighth prince, the old minister, accept the guilt!"

Hou Junji buried his head very low.

But he didn't dare to say much, and he didn't dare to disobey Li Chengfeng's intentions.

Because, now Li Shimin is seriously ill and recuperating in Changfeng Village, in the palace, Li Chengfeng is in charge of the imperial power, and he is the most powerful person in the entire Tang Dynasty.

And Li Chengfeng's approach is actually to warn these ministers present that they are not allowed to be late or absent when they go to their own court in the future.

Otherwise, let me dig the Grand Canal.

"Okay, then today's morning pilgrimage is over! Everyone retreats, tomorrow morning, continue to go to court! Retreat! ”

"Yes, Eighth Prince!"

……

This morning morning went up for a day, and it was not until the sun set in the evening that the court retreated.

At first, many ministers thought that the Eighth Prince was here to joke, but only now did they understand how strict the Eighth Prince's requirements for discipline were.

The four people from Hou Junji didn't come to the court for a day? Punish them for digging the Grand Canal for a month?

It's not a matter of physical work, it's a matter of face.

Just imagine, the original high-ranking prince of the Tang Dynasty actually wanted to dig the Grand Canal with the common people? How embarrassing is this to get out?

But Hou Junji didn't dare to disobey Li Chengfeng's punishment, after all, it was their fault first.

Therefore, he could only be willing to accept the punishment, and from then on, he seriously assisted the eighth prince in handling the government.

"Gonggong Wu, I'm hungry, go and prepare dinner for me!"

On the way back, Li Chengfeng said to Gonggong Wu.

I haven't eaten for a day today, and Li Chengfeng has long been hungry.

But he just wanted to give those ministers a dismissal, so that they knew that although he was only six years old, his royal authority was not something that those ministers could provoke.

……

Sure enough, early in the morning of the second day, Li Chengfeng had just stepped into the court.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty had already arrived, and they were standing very upright, and they were no longer talking to each other.

"Sure enough, it's still the one taught by the elementary school Chinese teacher!" Li Chengfeng smiled softly.

Sitting on the throne of Jinluan, Li Chengfeng spoke majestically and said, "Lai Guogong, may I ask if anyone hasn't come today?" ”

"Back to the Eighth Prince, all the ministers have arrived!" Du Ruhui replied respectfully.

Li Chengfeng nodded and said, "Okay, then from now on, let's officially go to court!" Ministers, what are you doing? ”

Liu Zhenghui held the fold in his hand, took a step forward, and said, "The old minister has something to play!" ”

"Quasi-play!" Li Chengfeng waved his sleeves.
