Since Yuan Zhao began to ascend to the Han court, he seems to have never been defeated in every struggle. The opponents who were embarrassed by him all suffered big losses in the end. This is of course related to the support of the royal family behind him, but more importantly, he is justified and wise.

Du Zhou's predecessor Zhang Tang once solemnly warned him before leaving office that before leaving office, he must not easily confront Yuan Zhao, otherwise he is likely to be bitten back, which is the experience that Zhang Tang taught with his own blood.

Yuan Zhao is a formidable opponent and must be dealt with with with all his might. Du Zhou remembered this advice, so as soon as he saw the emperor's face, he took the first step and sued him viciously.

was ready to fight a tough battle, but you come and go, that's what the court debates before arguing. But he never expected that in the face of his accusation, Yuan Zhao would admit it directly without even explaining a word.

Du Zhou was simply overjoyed, such an opportunity was really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he couldn't help but burst with confidence, he had to kill Yuan Zhao today!

The emperor looked at Yuan Zhao in a daze, thinking that he would continue to speak, but after he finished saying that, he stood with his hands down and bowed his head and said nothing.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is not wrong, right? Changle Hou has already confessed, as a minister of the imperial court, he has committed such a big crime, if he is not severely punished, how can it be convincing! Therefore, the minister asked His Majesty to issue an order to immediately put him in the prison of the Imperial Palace, and the ministers and others would interrogate him carefully, so that he could be convicted according to the law. ”

Du Zhou is almost about to jump up, the revenge is avenged, the shame of the Xue Tingwei Mansion, such an opportunity is in front of him, he must strike while the iron is hot, let the emperor make up his mind, and quickly settle this matter. As long as they win Yuanzhao, they will be above the court in the future, and they will be in the world.

The two of them stood there, less than a foot apart, one impassioned and the other calm and indifferent. The emperor's face gradually sank.

"Yuan Zhao, you clearly know that the Tingwei Mansion is an important part of my reliance and a place that represents the laws and regulations of the Han Dynasty, and you are still acting so recklessly, what do you want? Do you really think that your skills are so great that no one can take care of them? Hum! ”

Yuan Zhao's face did not change, he looked at Du Zhou's triumphant appearance on the side, and then looked at Han Yan's meaningful face. He raised his head disdainfully and arched his hand upward.

"Your Majesty, that's not what the minister intended. However, before answering His Majesty's question, Weichen wants to ask, what kind of emperor does His Majesty want to be? ”

Hearing him ask such a question, everyone was a little surprised, and Emperor Liu Che frowned even more, not understanding what he wanted to do.

"I inherited this Han family, of course I want to be a promising monarch!"

"Good! If Your Majesty has this ambition, why does he do the opposite? ”

"What? What did you say? Daring! Are you accusing me? When did I do the opposite? Yuan Zhao, if you don't give a reason today, you will definitely not be spared! ”

The emperor was really a little angry at this time, he was originally a stubborn character, how could he tolerate the face-to-face accusations of his courtiers.

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient. The minister wants to ask, does the so-called promising monarch refer to Xia Wei Shang or the three generations of holy kings? ”

"The kid doesn't learn anything! Does this need to be asked? From ancient times to the present, the rule of three generations of holy kings is the highest model of dynasties in the world, and I have always admired it! ”

"Your Majesty is right, the rule of the three generations of holy kings, Tang Yu, is indeed the most ideal rule of the royal road in the eyes of the people of the world throughout the ages. They convince people with reason, teach people with virtue, practice courtesy, benevolence, and righteousness, and patiently educate all people, so that the world is peaceful and prosperous, and the world is the so-called royal road! ”

The emperor listened to what he said eloquently, and what he said was very reasonable, and he couldn't help but nod slightly, and his face was somewhat soothing.

"But it is not easy to reach the realm of the royal road. The most important aspect of this is that the king must completely refrain from selfish desires, lead by example, and lead the way. Therefore, it is natural that violent punishment cannot be advocated. Weichen thought that it was the most undesirable way to use the harsh law of cool officials to achieve the method of subduing the subjects of the world. Think about how the huge Qin Dynasty fell! How can such a rush for quick success and quick profit, advocating the cool law, achieve the real royal road? And Your Majesty, you've been doing it lately! Isn't that the opposite? ”

Yuan Zhao was straight, like a green pine, outspoken, and was not polite just because the other party was the emperor. There are some mistakes in the court, which must be pointed out and stopped as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will only get worse and worse, and eventually it will be out of control.

This, how dare he say such a thing?! The people in the hall were all shocked. They all lowered their heads in interest, not daring to look at the emperor's face.

There was a disturbing silence, not knowing whether it was the calm before the thunder erupted, or the terrible consequences after the emperor's fury.

"Then tell me, what kind of emperor I am in your heart, can't I do the deeds of the three kings? Be honest. ”

A dull voice came from above, with a sharp tone that sent chills down the body.

"With what Your Majesty is doing at present, in the eyes of Wei Chen, it is so difficult to achieve the royal rule with so many desires and benevolence and righteousness outside!"

There was a deathly silence in the temple. Lose your marbles! This Changle Hou is really crazy. This is to point out to the face that the emperor is a person with many selfish desires and hypocrisy! With such sharp criticism to say, is he really not afraid of death? Or have you forgotten who he's up against?

"Bold Yuan Zhao! Dare to accuse the king to his face, talking nonsense, appalling! This is simply a big rebellion, according to the law! Your Majesty, please make a decree at once. ”

It's really a sin made by heaven, it can be violated, it is a sin of oneself, and you can't live! Du Zhou stood in front of the palace, pointed at Yuan Zhao, and reprimanded loudly, looking like a loyal minister.

Yuan Zhao looked at him with contemptuous eyes, his gaze was like a sword, as if he wanted to stab him in the heart, and Du Zhou also looked at him angrily.

"Du Zhou, you, including Zhang Tang, you people, as the head of Jiuqing, can't praise the merits of the first emperor and open up territory. It is impossible to educate the people of the world, enrich the country and strengthen the people. Your ability is nothing more than fabricating accusations and concocting a prison as a means to gain wealth. People all over the world say that a sword and pen official cannot be a minister, and now it seems that this is really the case. If you are allowed to do whatever you want, you will surely make the people of the world panic and uneasy. When the time comes, it will create an uncontrollable situation, even if you crush the bones and ashes of the cool officials, it will be irreparable! ”

Yuan Zhao said as he pressed step by step. Du Zhou listened to his righteous words, and saw the light in his eyes that seemed to be about to kill, he couldn't help but be horrified in his heart, and involuntarily retreated again and again, and accidentally tripped under the steps and fell into embarrassment.

No one dared to laugh, they just hid far away. Immortals fight, mortals suffer, this kind of truth, these palace people still understand.

The emperor's face changed and changed, and his heart fluctuated. He clenched his fists and almost wanted to stand up, jump underneath and choke the kid by the neck hard, bastard! Can't you save some face for me!

Du Zhou fell to the ground, and he didn't know whether he was scared or fell, and he felt a little cramp in his legs. He climbed a few steps forward, avoiding Yuan Zhao's edge.

"Your Majesty, this guy Yuan Zhao is really hateful! Dare to be so disobedient in front of His Majesty, he still wants to beat the minister! Your Majesty, don't let him go today! ”

"Oh, I didn't lift a finger of you from out of town, beating? Since Lord Tingwei said so, then ....... Yuan Zhao rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, ready to fight.

Du Zhou screamed, he knew that Yuan Zhao was powerful, if this guy really beat himself up regardless of it, it would be a shame and a big hair, how could he go to the court to meet his colleagues in the future.

"Enough! You, you...... Where else is there a little bit of a minister? It's really infuriating. Roll, roll, roll, roll! Get out of Weiyang Palace, out of sight and out of mind! ”

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, he shook the sleeves of his robe, stood up, and walked away by himself in a huff.

It doesn't matter? Du Zhou felt his head grow for a while. Your Majesty, you have to say something fair, just go away, what does this mean?

Suddenly, he felt that someone behind him was sneering, and when he looked back, Yuan Zhao was looking at him with bad intentions, as if he was looking at where it was more appropriate to place his fist.

The hero doesn't eat the loss in front of him, and he said yes, stay in the green mountains, and don't be afraid of no firewood! Du Zhou is also a sharp leg, seeing that the situation is not good, he will slip away!

While running, he didn't forget to turn around and say cruel words to Yuan Zhao...... You wait! In the future, the court will see that the Tingwei Mansion and you are ...... incompatible! ”

Yuan Zhao shook his arm and bared his teeth at him, and Lord Tingwei ran faster, and disappeared without a trace of a smoke. Seeing the scene in front of her, even Han Yan, who walked to the door, couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

In a matter of moments, the hall was empty. Yuan Zhao smashed his mouth, thought about it, and turned around and walked in the direction of Bowangyuan after coming out. He dared to guarantee that the emperor would not let him go, and after he was dissipated for a while, he would definitely send someone to summon him to meet him, so he might as well save the effort to run errands. In other words, I haven't seen Liu Ju for some days, and I don't know if this prince's knowledge has grown.

It is said that Emperor Liu Che returned to the harem with a stomach, but did not go to Mrs. Li, who had been favored recently, but came to the Jianzhang Palace, a little sullen. Mrs. Wei saw that his face was not good-looking, so she went to make a cup of tea and brought it over, but she didn't ask much, just told him some interesting stories about her children.

The tea soup from Fanxue Lou is clear and cold, with the light fragrance of autumn chrysanthemum, which is refreshing and can relieve worries. The Emperor took a sip and let out a long breath of stuffiness in his chest and abdomen, and after a moment, he looked at Wei Zifu, who was whispering something as he spoke.

"What kind of emperor am I in the eyes of the subjects of the world? Son-in-law, you know me best, can you tell me the truth? ”

On the trees in the courtyard outside the hall, yellow leaves are falling. When the woman who had been with him for more than ten years stopped, she saw that there was a faint ......sense of loneliness in the eyes of the emperor, who had always been energetic and ambitious.
