Chapter 487: I want to scare them to death

After the silence, the Haoran Hall immediately exploded. The courtiers roared wildly, and some tried to rush out but were knocked to the ground by the brocade school one by one. The emperor squinted at all this in front of him, because of the excitement, because of the pride, his face was rarely reddened.

At this time, who cares about the glamorous background of those adults, fists to the flesh, and after a while, the angry roar of those adults turned into a terrible wail, and then even the strength to howl was gone, and more than a hundred courtiers were beaten to the ground by the evil men, panting like dogs exposed to the summer sun.

Su Buxing glanced at the emperor, and his palms were actually sweaty.

And the surprise on Jin Shixiong's face, who had just come over suddenly, had not yet dissipated, and his heart was overturned. He took a cautious step back, as if he didn't want to be hurt by the murderous aura exuded by the emperor who seemed to be on the verge of death. This thin supreme is still looking forward to it.

At this time, he really understood the meaning of the word Supreme.

After the chaos in the hall calmed down, the emperor stretched out his hand and motioned for Su Buxing to help him up. Su Buxing hurriedly walked over and helped the emperor slowly walk down the nine steps. The Emperor smiled at the courtiers lying on the ground, and the smugness in his eyes was like that of a child who had just tricked a piece of candy.

"Since I ascended the throne, I have known what the biggest tumor in the Great Sui world is."

He said as he walked: "But I know that you are a cancer and the pillar of the empire, and I once thought that I would rely on my own ability to let you put away all your thoughts and be done by the Great Sui wholeheartedly." At first, I even thought I had done that. I admit that I didn't expect that the Great Sui would accumulate so many disadvantages in just a hundred years! ”

"I've been thinking that the Great Sui can't do without you, and I can't do without you, so as long as I don't touch the root of the country, I don't bother to care about anything. If the Great Sui is a big hall, then the people are every brick of the city is a solid land, and you people are the pillars. You think that this hall will collapse without you, but you have forgotten what is it without bricks, without land, and only a few pillars? You can't even stand! Don't take yourself too seriously, especially when I don't have much to live. ”

He stopped in front of a courtier whose face was covered in blood, and pointed to the blood on his face: "When your ancestor followed Emperor Taizu to open the country, he didn't shed much blood, but it's not so disgusting and embarrassing, he was born in a poor family, and because of his merits, the Yang family gave your family what it deserved." A hundred years later, you people will have become the same face as those famous families with hundreds of thousands of years of history. None of you are truly loyal to this empire or to the Yang family, you are only loyal to your own family. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that my days are numbered, I would have endured it."

The emperor continued to walk forward, looking at each of the courtiers who had been knocked over: "I started thinking about this when I was in Chang'an, but I have never been able to make up my mind. It's not that I'm reluctant to give you up, but I'm reluctant to cut the flesh of the Great Sui Empire with my own hands. Later, when I went west, the more smoothly the battle went, and the louder your singing praises became, the colder my heart became. The Yang family has no place to be sorry for you, but you have been preparing to take refuge in the new master from the beginning. Today you are my courtiers, and tomorrow you may turn around and bow to others......"

"I wanted to give you another chance, and I didn't want to go this far until I had to. After all, this is a matter that shakes the national system, and if you are not careful, half of the Great Sui will collapse. But now I understand that even though it hurts to the bone marrow to rip you out, there will always be a time when you will be healed. Keep you, the prince is young, the queen is helpless, and she will become a puppet at your mercy. In fact, no matter how you fight this battle, you are all winners, and if the thief wins, you turn your head to meet each other. If the Great Sui wins, you will be able to control the dynasty...... What a good calculation, seamless. ”

"But it's already here, what am I afraid of? Seamless...... I split it with a knife. ”

A gray-haired courtier spat a mouthful of bloody spit, and was pressed to the ground by the boots of the brocade school. He raised his head with difficulty, watched the emperor roar with the greatest strength, "Yang Yi! You should know how wrong you are...... When Emperor Taizu opened the country, the battle of Jiayu Mountain, Taizu only had 40,000 soldiers, and Zheng Guo gathered 600,000 troops in the previous dynasty...... Emperor Taizu found a basket full of letters in the tent of Zheng Junshuai, and burned them in the fire pit in front of his subordinates, what a courage! In the end, in exchange for the death of his subordinates, all the people will return to their hearts! ”

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but sneer: "It is precisely because of this that you are becoming more and more rampant!" If I had changed, I would have done that at that time, but if I had changed Emperor Taizu's current situation, Taizu would have killed you. You people have only forgotten for more than a hundred years that the knife will always be in the hands of the royal family. ”

Another courtier pleaded, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty is merciful, the minister knows that he is wrong, the minister swears, the minister does not dare to have any more dissenting intentions, and asks Your Majesty to be gracious! ”

The emperor slowly squatted down in front of him, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of the courtier's mouth: "I am the emperor, you are the courtier, it stands to reason...... How can a father not forgive his children for their mistakes? ”

Hearing this, the courtiers begging for mercy immediately felt a glimmer of hope.

"But the son is not filial, what's the use of keeping it? The raven feeds back, and the lamb kneels to suckle, but you are always waiting for the inheritance that I have dug up. ”

The emperor threw the handkerchief beside him, stood up, and waved his hand at Su Buxing: "Let's do it in this Haoran Hall built by Li Yuanshan, I have cut off more than 30,000 heads in Chang'an City, but I have never been to the Dharma field." Today, I use this place as a ritual scene and watch the killing with my own eyes. ”

Su Buwei helped him walk back to the high steps, and after sitting down, the emperor glanced sideways at Jin Shixiong: "You are the general of the imperial court, Jin Ge Iron Horse has come and gone on the battlefield, how many pools of blood have passed, how many corpses have jumped over the mountain, how can you tremble?" ”

Jin Shixiong knelt down with a plop: "Minister...... Afraid of His Majesty's might. ”

The emperor was silent, and his hand slowly pressed down: "It's rare, there are still people who know that Tianwei is terrifying." ”

As his gesture pressed down, the horizontal knives in the hands of those brocade school generals slashed down, and the sound of wails and knives cutting bones intertwined, turning the Haoran Hall into the Hell Yama Palace.

……

……

The corpses were put into sacks and thrown out, and the emperor asked people to lift the bluestone of the corridor outside the main hall, dig a pit and throw the corpses into it and bury them, and then pave the bluestone. These once illustrious courtiers were buried under the road, and it is not known how many people will be trampled on in the future.

Haoran Palace is controlled by the Jinyi School, and no one outside knows that so many people have died.

"Your Majesty"

Su Buwei took the velvet blanket and put it on the emperor's leg, then took the medicine that had just been boiled and handed it to him. The emperor frowned and shook his head: "Su is not afraid, Su is not afraid...... Why don't you understand my thoughts, I don't even want to watch the twists and turns anymore, do you still want to drink this bitter decoction again? ”

"Your Majesty......"

Su Buxing opened his mouth, and the emperor stopped him: "Let me live as I want for a while, I don't want to watch it, I don't take the medicine, and I want to live comfortably for the rest of the days." It's rare to relax and be lazy, people say that stealing is half a day of leisure, and I will steal a few more days. If you take care of me any longer, I will send you to Chang'an City. ”

Su Bu smiled bitterly, and suddenly felt that the emperor was a little childish.

"Gao Kaitai"

The emperor said to Gao Kaitai, who was kneeling on the side, "Is everything done?" ”

The general Gao Kaitai immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, it has been done." The 200,000 soldiers have been ordered to be transferred to the Qinchuan area to set up defenses to ensure the rear of the army, even if Luo Yao's left front guard goes around the back of the army, it will be difficult to cross over. The ministers swore to defend His Majesty to the death, and never let those rebels come near His Majesty. ”

"Not necessarily"

The emperor smiled and said: "I asked you to retreat to Qinchuan with all the soldiers, not to prevent Luo Yao from raising troops to rebel, but to leave some battle-hardened soldiers for the Great Sui...... After I have led my army westward to pursue Li Yuanshan, you should return to Gyeonggi Province with your troops...... I had already sent Liu Enjing and Xu Xiaogong back to Chang'an City, just because I was worried that there would be thieves in the court. ”

"Once the news of my death in the northwest spreads, there will always be some people who think that the prince is too young to bully him into doing something disgusting. You, Xu Xiaogong, and Liu Enjing are my entrusted people, do things well, although I am terminally ill, I can still tell who is loyal to me and who has two hearts for me. ”

Gao Kaitai was prostrate on the ground, crying bitterly but unable to speak.

"There's nothing to cry about."

The Emperor smiled, "I will never be at the mercy of others, and the more they feel that I am weak, I will let them see what is strong." After returning to Chang'an City, you only need to remember one thing, and immediately welcome the crown prince to the throne, and you don't have to wait for the news of my death to come back. Pei Yan secretly colluded with Luo Yaoduo, how could I not know? He used to be a close confidant of mine, and his mind began to change after he knew that I had a stubborn disease. I don't say that I won't take him, because I still need him to paralyze Luo Yao. By the time you go back, Xu Xiaogong and Liu Enjing should have done everything in Chang'an City, and there is no need for Pei Yan to keep ......"

"Your Majesty thinks twice"

Gao Kaitai pleaded while kowtowing.

"I always want to take the Great Sui to a bigger and stronger place, but the sky is not timely, and the disadvantages will be harmful for a long time, and I have more than enough heart but not enough strength. The prince is intelligent, although he is young, he has great ambitions and distinguishes between right and wrong, and after two or three years of training, he must be stronger than me. There are disadvantages and advantages to succeeding to the throne, and he will know how to manage this empire better than I do. I can trust you, and you must not fail me. ”

Gao Kaitai had already broken his forehead, and the blood was bleeding nonstop.

The emperor asked him to help him up, so that Su Buxing obtained a secret decree: "I have arranged not only for you, but also for others." When the time comes, the people who assist the prince will go back. This time is the time to die...... Li Yuanshan thought that he was unparalleled, but how could I trip on a stone twice? I went as he wanted because I had to. ”

Gao Kaitai took the secret decree and was already choked up to the point that he couldn't speak. Jin Shixiong next to him also cried, and the two old ministers felt that their hearts were about to break.

"If nothing else......"

The emperor said lightly: "Li Yuanshan's ambush will arrange a decisive battle west of Xiangcheng, he thinks that the troops I can bring are less than 600,000, and his rebels, plus Luo Yao's troops, plus the troops of the Mengyuan people, will inevitably be defeated when they encircle me three times." In fact, he was wrong, I only brought 400,000 brave ...... I'm sorry for those people, they all came to the northwest with me with the dream of serving the country, but I didn't know that I knew from the beginning that they couldn't go back......"

The emperor paused, and suddenly said to Su Buxing: "I want to drink." ”

Su Buxing was about to say that he couldn't drink, but the emperor glared at him: "You still have to take care of me?" ”

Su Buxing felt bitter in his heart, turned his head to get the wine and poured a glass for the emperor. The Emperor took a sip and then drank the wine with his neck tilted. When the wine was down, he coughed violently. But in this way, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

"I haven't drunk for a long time, I'm hungry."

He smiled apologetically at Su: "I know that the attendants privately scold you for being Su Laogou, and you will bite whoever I mean...... It's a vulgar name, but I think it's a compliment. Su Lao Dog ...... You're going to die with me. ”

Su Buwei knelt on the ground and burst into tears: "Slave maid, always follow Your Majesty to serve." ”

The Emperor laughed and raised his finger to the sky: "My enemies think they can calculate me, they think they have the chance to win, they underestimate me too much...... Li Yuanshan, Luo Yao, whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, I can see it clearly. But no one can see where I am, and I will scare their boss when the time comes. No...... I'm going to scare them to death! ”
