It seems that this is not a good thing to establish a son too early. Easy to deal with. It's still a good way for the old man Kangxi in later generations! Secretly set up a prince, put the edict of succession behind the plaque, and wait until he died to open it. This way before opening. No one knows the outcome. Instead, it protects the successor.

But he has already set up a son, so he can't be abolished! Besides, the step-son didn't do anything wrong. If it is scrapped, it is difficult to accept. And it's too the child's psyche.

It seems that it will not work to establish a reserve secretly. However, he can let his stepchild secretly establish a reserve in the future. I'll tell my step-son about this when he grows up.

And soon, Li Ru came to report, and all the ministers were caught. It's just that when I went to Jiping's house, Jiping's two sons disappeared ten days ago. The rest of the house was full of servants and dependents.

Zhang Jie said: Ji Ping, this guy must have arranged his son's back road before. But I was afraid that my family members were gone, and I became suspicious. So he only let his son run away and did not notify the female relatives in the family. Not to mention servants.

What else? Has anyone confessed? Zhang Jie asked.

Li Rudao: No, they are all stubborn, they just don't admit it. Perhaps they understand that as long as they confess, they have only a dead end. If you don't confess, you may still be able to live!

Zhang Jie nodded and said: "In this matter, it seems that torture is useless. Because there will never be more than one hand of knowledge about it. The servants and slaves will not know about it.

Jie estimated that only Fu Wan, Dong Cheng, and Yang Biao knew. Wang Zifu may have known, but he has had a few encounters with Jie, and Liu Xie may not trust him. Maybe he didn't know either.

Lord, then kill them all! Anyway, I can't ask what the result is.

No, the killing must be killed, but Jie had to warn Liu Xie in person. In this way, inform you to go to the court tomorrow, and you will send these people to Deyang Palace. Jay is going to interrogate him personally.

It's time to teach the Son of Heaven a lesson.

Promise!

And Liu Xie, who was in the palace at this time, was also anxious, he didn't know if Zhang Jie was dead or not. I saw that there were many more guards in the palace, and I heard that the prince had already let Zhang Jie's people arrest him.

Liu Xie is also a little worried now that if Zhang Jie dies, his generals will not kill him, the mastermind!

In the second early dynasty, Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Chen Gong, and Li Ru under Zhang Jie's account also went to the court. And the officials of the DPRK and China entered the Deyang Hall tremblingly! And Dong Cheng, Yang Biao, Fu Wan, and others were also escorted to the main hall.

At this time, Zhang Jie, accompanied by Dian Wei with a sword in his hand, slowly walked into the main hall! This is Zhang Jie's first sword to the temple!

Liu Xie, after the ambush, Dong Cheng and the others saw that Zhang Jie was alive and well. And when he went to the temple with a sword in hand, he was also afraid.

Zhang Jie walked into the middle of the hall and glared at everyone angrily.

Dao: Your Majesty! The minister came to the court today to ask His Majesty something!

Liu Xie was a little afraid when he saw Zhang Jie's murderous gaze.

Dao: What is Aiqing?

Zhang Jie said: Your Majesty has read the book of sages? Have you read Mencius?

Liu Xie didn't know what Zhang Jie meant, and said: I have read it.

Everyone in the hall didn't understand why Zhang Jie was asking this!

Zhang Jie said: Since Your Majesty has read it, the minister may ask Your Majesty: The king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as a heart; The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as an enemy.

I don't know what Your Majesty means, please answer Your Majesty!

Now everyone understands, but they don't know what's going on.

Of course, Liu Xie knew what Zhang Jie meant by asking. Dao: Aiqing, what's wrong, how can you ask this?

Zhang Jie said sternly: Please answer Your Majesty!

Liu Xie was really hard to answer for a while, but in fact, Mencius's words were already very straightforward.

Liu Xie still didn't answer. The crowd was silent.

At this time, Kong Rong said: Wei Hou, you brought a sword to the palace to ask Your Majesty, what are your intentions? Do you want to be a rebel and a thief?

At this time, there were only the children and grandchildren of Kong Laoer, and Kong Rong dared to speak to Zhang Jie like this.

Zhang Jie said angrily: Kong Wenju shut up for me. I told you that the ancestor of your family, Kong Zhongni, was a thief.

Zhang Jie's words were like a thunderclap, Kong Zhongni is a saint! Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought, he respected Confucianism alone, and Confucius was the teacher of all scholars. Its status is almost deified. The words of Confucius became the words of the sages.

The reason why Kong Rong dared to shout at Zhang Jie was because of the prestige of the ancestors.

Hearing Zhang Jie scold the ancestor for being a chaotic minister and thief, of course Kong Rong quit. He scolded: Ignorant children who do not respect the sages will be punished by heaven.

Zhang Jie said: "At that time, there was Zhou Tianzi, what did you say about Wei Qi? "Why didn't he go to Luoyang to serve Zhou Tianzi? Why did he travel around the world to promote his statecraft? Thou sayest? Why?

Zhang Jie's words made Kong Rong unable to answer, this is an unsolvable question, and no one in later generations can explain this truth for thousands of years. After all, Zhou Tianzi was still there at that time. Fundamentally speaking, Confucius was not loyal to Zhou Tianzi.

Zhang Jiedao: You can all say, what is the reason? Everyone made Zhang Jie's words speechless. Even Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Tian Feng are the same. In their hearts, Kong Lao Er is also a saint. But this question is a bit unsolvable.

Zhang Jie also ignored everyone. Dao: Jie will tell you a story, and the name of the story is "The Farmer and the Snake".

On a cold day, a farmer encounters a frozen snake on the road. When the farmer saw that the snake was about to freeze to death, he felt pity for it, so he put it in his bosom and warmed it.

The snake slowly woke up, but bit the farmer violently. The farmer died of poisoning. But before he died, the farmer said a word.

Do you know what the farmer said?

After the end, you know what?

Dong Cheng: Do you know?

Your Majesty, do you know?

Everyone didn't dare to speak out, but Zhang Jie shouted loudly: Retribution, this is retribution.

At the beginning, I should have thrown all of you white-eyed wolves and poisonous snakes to Li Dao Guo Ci, and let them boil all your poisonous snakes into snake soup and eat them.

Everyone made Zhang Jie scold and didn't dare to speak out.

Zhang Jie no longer paid attention to these people and shouted: Come on, bring up the medicine residue.

Outside the door, the armorer brought a medicine jar. And there is also a bucket of decoction.

Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday Jie felt a cold, and the imperial doctor Ji Ping prescribed a medicine. Among them are broken intestine grass, aconite, poisonous mushroom powder!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a great tonic soup! Jay took a bite. The taste is not bad.

Ji Ping said that His Majesty asked him to prescribe a prescription for me, saying that this medicine would cure the disease. How could such a big tonic soup allow Jie to enjoy it alone? Today, Jie will let His Majesty share it with the ministers.

Everyone was shocked, what a big tonic soup this is! It's poison!

Zhang Jie said: Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness, and today the minister also gave your Majesty a bowl.

Liu Xie was shocked: Aiqing, I didn't give an order to Doctor Ji to send medicine!

Zhang Jie said angrily: Dare not do it, is it the husband's doing?

Come, serve Your Majesty to drink medicine.

Dian Wei thought about it directly.

Dong Cheng said angrily: Zhang Jie, bold! Are you going to kill the king?
