When the forbidden army outside the door heard Wei Gong Han shouting, they immediately rushed in more than a dozen and surrounded the officials named by Wei Gong Han.

The officials, whose faces were the color of the earth, fell to their knees together and pleaded.

They knew what they had done, and they were sure that they would not be able to withstand the investigation, so they shouted to Wang Mang and the Son of Heaven; "Your Majesty, the guilty minister is guilty, and I beg your Majesty to be merciful. Lord Wang, I know that I am wrong, and I beg Lord Wang to raise his noble hand and spare my life. ”

Emperor Liu Yin of Hanping was silent, only showing an angry face.

Wang Mang said: "Love is love, and law is law." Some mistakes can be made, but some mistakes must never be made. Now it is not that I will condemn you, but that the people will condemn you. If I had tried to embarrass you, would you still be alive now? It is useless for you to ask me for this. ”

"Wang Mang, you are shameless!"

When an arrested official saw that Wang Mang did not rescue him, he expected that the fate was decided, so he scolded loudly: "You deliberately set up a trap to harm Zhongliang in an attempt to eradicate those who oppose your claim to be emperor." Your sinister intentions will surely be punished in the future.

Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to be aware of this, this Wang Mang is showing off his power tricks and bullying the king, and I also ask Your Majesty to quickly issue an order to investigate and deal with it, and kill the rebel Wang Mang, so as to correct the law. In addition, Wang Mang's wives Wang Jingyan and Shi Xiuying have repeatedly formed gangs to threaten the powerful, bewitch the people, and dig up the foundation of the Han Dynasty, which is an unforgivable crime. Even Wang Mang, a rebel minister, disregarded his shame and fornicated with his sister-in-law Shangguan Ningxuan, ignoring etiquette and corrupting Joan of Arc.

The minister has never been ashamed of His Majesty, nor has he been ashamed of the people, and the minister is innocent...."

Before he finished his words, Wang Mang's eyes were cold, and he took out his sword and stabbed him in the heart, killing him on the spot.

"Knowing his mistakes and not changing them, falsely accusing Zhongliang, insulting my wife and daughter's family, it is not a pity to die." Wang Mang said coldly: "Suppress these criminals for me and strictly investigate them." Also, this dead Liu Ming must be investigated strictly. If he is really loyal and has not done anything to be sorry for the people and His Majesty, he is falsely accused. After the matter is clarified, I will change my life for a life, and I will never be in the Yang Palace.

If it is found that he has embezzled and taken bribes to withhold food for disaster relief, then all the people of his three clans, except for the old, weak, women and children, can be sentenced to death to correct the law. ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!" When the forbidden army saw that Wang Mang actually used a sword to kill people in Weiyang Palace, they felt a chill in their hearts, and they expected that Wang Mang was really angry, so they hurriedly escorted these criminals down one by one.

Killing people with a sword in front of the Son of Heaven in Weiyang Palace was the first time since the opening of the Han Dynasty.

The rest of the ministers were more vigilant at the same time, for fear of saying the wrong thing, and at the same time they also knew that they must not insult Wang Mang's wife and daughter, and they must not touch Wang Mang's scales, otherwise Wang Mang will turn his face and deny people and do some cruel things.

Seeing this, Huo Jianghai smiled coldly and muttered to himself: "Do you really think that Wang Mang is kind and easy to speak?" He's tougher than anyone else. Now don't say that you have committed a crime, even if you have not committed a crime, but as long as you insult his wife and daughter, he will find a way to kill you. ”

Wang Mang killed a minister in Weiyang Palace in front of hundreds of officials and the Son of Heaven, Huo Jianghai, who was Wang Mang's old acquaintance, was not surprised, but felt normal.

He deeply knew that if Wang Mang did not have absolute authority and strength now, then Wang Mang would definitely not kill people in the court, but would secretly find someone to take revenge. Now that Wang Mang has absolute authority, he must have revenge and revenge, and he will never engage in overnight revenge.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, which is useless to Wang Mang, and Wang Mang never pays attention to this sentence.

I do my own thing, Wang Mang maintains his position in the face of major rights and wrongs, and Wang Mang has always been debauched in the face of red tape and rules.

Qin Tianjian Song Pingzhi was secretly happy, and it was expected that no one would dare to stop Wang Mang's ascension to the throne and claim the emperor at this time.

So he said to the Son of Heaven again: "Your Majesty, the so-called dragons without a leader will surely cause chaos in the world." As Lord Wang said just now, natural disasters will continue for another year, or even longer. And Your Majesty, although you have not made a great mistake, you have not made a great achievement, this is a public opinion. If you continue to sit on the Ninety-Five Supreme Throne, your virtue is not worthy of the throne, and it is not appropriate to accept it.

Therefore, the minister suggested that His Majesty should make a plan early, abdicate and make way for Xian, hold a great ceremony to pray to heaven, invite Lord Wang to enter the Weiyang Palace, and lead the civil and military officials to help the people survive natural disasters and help Kyushu restore prosperity. ”

"That's a great thing!"

The officials on Wang Mang's side echoed and nodded in praise, believing that this matter really had to speed up the process and could not be delayed any longer.

The other officials who were originally opposed looked at this situation, they couldn't help but shudder at first, and then they all agreed, and no longer objected, for fear that Wang Mang would come to investigate their previous mistakes, and they were also afraid that Wang Mang would be cruel to themselves.

For a while, whether they were sincere or false, they all opened their mouths anyway, and they completely reached a consensus, and they all agreed with Wang Mang to be the emperor.

"It takes nine tribulations for a python to become a dragon, Lord Wang doesn't know how many calamities he has experienced in his life, and now it is a few days to become a dragon and be blessed by heaven."

Qin Tianjian said: "Many generals who followed Lord Wang's side have also seen Lord Wang have the image of a divine dragon to appear and protect himself, and the Xiongnu Dadan even expressed his attitude when he first saw Lord Wang, saying that Lord Wang is the true son of heaven. All kinds of things are conclusive, and the king's virtue is full, enough to be called the emperor. ”

Emperor Liu Yin of the Han Ping said: "I have already understood the intentions of your Aiqing. I have been in power for a few years, and I really don't have any credit, and I know this. And I just said that in the early days, I also thought about abdicating the throne and letting a virtuous person manage Kyushu instead of me. Unfortunately, the situation was chaotic before, and I couldn't find a suitable candidate, and Wang Aiqing was still guarding the border in Gansu at that time.

I have no opinion on the matter of giving way to Wang Aiqing. I only hope that the world can be peaceful, the people can be happy, the ministers can return to their hearts, the world can be unified, and the countries can no longer come to attack. I can't do these things, and I can't do them.

Therefore, all Aiqing's requests depend on Wang Aiqing's intentions. The ancient emperors made the wind of virtue not be extinguished, and it must be restored, otherwise how can the world be stable for a long time?

Although this great Han country was created by my ancestor Gaozu, if there was no support from the people and the support of the ministers, Gaozu would not have been able to create the Great Han. I will set an example for this today, and this is the last credit I can do for the people of this world. ”

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty's painstaking efforts will surely be understood, and the world will be at peace for a long time. I believe that with the wisdom of Lord Wang, he will surely spread the wind of virtue forever. As long as there is virtue and wisdom, anyone can rule Kyushu and enjoy infinity. ”

The ministers shouted in unison, rejoicing.

"I implore Lord Wang to accept Your Majesty's request and promise Your Majesty's abdication to make a decision. At present, only Lord Wang is the most suitable to be crowned emperor in the sky, if Lord Wang does not replace His Majesty to supervise Kyushu as soon as possible, then the disaster in Kyushu will not be completely quelled, and the people will not want to get peace. ”

Their shouts were so loud that the guards, palace maids, and eunuchs who stayed outside Weiyang Palace could hear them clearly.

At the same time, these people were shocked and shouted from the ground, it seems that Wang Mang will not be able to ascend the throne and be the emperor at all, and it seems that Wang Mang will be sorry for the world, the people, and all of them if he does not ascend the throne and become the emperor.

Wang Mang said without sorrow or joy: "I also know your kindness and Your Majesty's hard work, but it is indeed not the time to discuss this matter now, although I have some small talents and thin names, but it is a big deal to supervise Kyushu to sit and enjoy Wuji, if I accept it rashly, if I am not able to do so, wouldn't it harm you and the people?" Now we should put the first thought on what to do. ”

Wang Mang excused himself again and again, as if he really didn't want to be the emperor.

Of course, he actually had other arrangements and plans for this. Otherwise, he would not have expressed his intention to be the emperor before, let alone let Han Fei'er and the others operate secretly.

Huo Jianghai and Wei Gonghan and others secretly pouted, Hai Wang Mang really wanted to be a and also wanted to set up a memorial arch, and fight with the women in those dusty places on the street.
