Chapter 1228: Explanation
"What? The killer has been identified? Yan Lie asked excitedly.
"Yes, father, and the murderer has been punished, and the people involved in the case have been caught, and they are now in prison." Yan Ming said.
Thinking that the matter had already come to an end, Yan Lie also breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't know who the murderer is so bold?" ”
"Back to my father, they are assassins sent by the Green Forest, in order to destroy the friendship between their country and South Vietnam, and ......" Yan Ming said as he suddenly became confused, and his expression was also a little embarrassed.
"And what? Go on. The emperor urged impatiently.
Yan Ming was a little difficult to speak, Yan Chen couldn't stand it on the side, so he stepped forward and said: "Back to my father, this incident can't help but be planned by the green forest, and even the forbidden army in the palace is also involved. ”
Hearing the help of the forbidden army, Yan Lie seemed surprisingly calm, and even thought that this was reasonable.
After Yan Chen in the audience finished speaking, he looked up at Yan Lie on the throne, and the quiet hall suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Well, according to the law, even if it is a forbidden army, committing such a major event is a great crime to punish the three clans, so you can just do it." The emperor calmly waved his hand and said to everyone.
Such a result made them gasp, especially Yan Ming, who obviously hadn't experienced these things.
"But ......," Yan Chen stepped forward and said.
The emperor immediately interrupted Yan Chen's words, "King Liang, do you know that what you said today is also the same crime according to the law, they were originally forbidden troops, and if they commit crimes, they should be guilty of one more degree, and the other party is the princess of Nanyue, if the sentence is light, he will ask the king of Nanyue, how should we respond?" ”
Yan Lie's words made Yan Chen swallow back all the words he wanted to say, and even Yan Ming dispelled the idea of continuing to refute.
However, Bao Yun understood that Yan Lie's reasons for being angry were definitely more than these.
"Now, what else do you two have to say?" Yan Lie looked at them condescendingly.
The two couldn't find any reason to refute for a while, and Yan Lie immediately ordered them to go down immediately to carry it out.
Yan Ming had no choice but to leave the hall with Yan Chen, leaving Wei Rong and Baoyun behind.
"Wei Shangshu? Why are you still here? I don't know what's going on? Yan Lie looked at the person in front of him and asked.
"Back to the emperor, there is something unclear about the lower officials, why is it so extreme? Although heavy punishment can establish authority, it is a bit excessive to punish the three clans. Wei Rong stepped forward and said.
Even Bao Yun, who was watching from the sidelines, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, what the crown prince and King Liang said is reasonable, and I also agree with Wei Shangshu's opinion." ”
Looking at the questions of the two, Yan Lie couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, I did this for the sake of the prince." ”
The two of them were also puzzled when they heard it, what does the heavy punishment have to do with the prince?
"Please ask the emperor to clear your doubts." Wei Rong stepped forward and asked.
It turned out that when the emperor first established the forbidden army, due to the lax rules and the good treatment of the forbidden army at that time, many people who had a relationship with the emperor became the forbidden army, so the forbidden army at that time was also mixed.
Even later, this phenomenon became even more serious, and although the method had been changed, it failed to solve the problem fundamentally.
The forbidden army recruited later, although the atmosphere was better, but because the forbidden army that was entrusted to the relationship had a backstage, those innocent people became the people they bully.
As this trend became more and more serious, the emperor only seemed to have a way to deter them, so he issued a decree.
But because the standards were set very high, those people still did not correct themselves, and even intensified them, so that bribery was serious in the forbidden army.
It is reasonable for the princess to happen in such a situation, and this time it gives the emperor the opportunity to dispose of all those people.
Thinking of this, Yan Lie was a little helpless: "I can't do this, maybe there are many ministers who don't understand, but I have to do this." ”
"I see, so there are more and more forbidden troops involved in the case, isn't it?" Wei Rong said with some surprise. He originally thought that the emperor was just angry, but he didn't expect that there were so many unspeakable hidden things here.
"That's right, it's my instructions, if I don't correct this unhealthy trend at once, similar things will happen again in the future." Yan Lie let out a long sigh, and sat on the throne a little weakly, but he felt comfortable.
"But, Your Majesty, the forbidden army has been such a trend for a long time, if all the three clans are punished, wouldn't those who made small mistakes be innocent?" Wei Rong asked.
However, the emperor said: "It is precisely because of the long-standing atmosphere that this time we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, if someone is lucky, within a few years, the forbidden army will return to its original state, and the three clans are to make those people no longer have such thoughts, and those who make small mistakes when they look at it are actually not as simple as you think." ”
Wei Rong looked at the emperor's eyes, there seemed to be an indescribable profundity, and what he said was even more reasonable, which made him admire.
However, at this time, Bao Yun stepped forward and said: "The emperor's intentions, of course, we can understand it, but in this way, at least more than half of the forbidden army will suffer, so that it will not fall into the name of a tyrant?" ”
Yan Lie suddenly laughed a few times after hearing it, but it was not because of happy laughter, which made people feel a little sad.
"If it is for the prosperity of my country, I will become a tyrant, but what I am worried about now is that if the prince is so merciful, I am afraid that he will become a puppet of people with a heart, and after experiencing such cruelty, he will understand what a benevolent monarch is." There was a hint of fanaticism in Yan Lie's eyes, but it was not terrible but touching.
The two were immediately impressed by Yan Lie's words, in order to be able to open the way for Yan Ming, they did not hesitate to do so as the emperor, in addition to sighing at the emperor's strength, they were extremely impressed by his opinion.
"Your Majesty." Wei Rong bowed his hand and knelt down.
Bao Yun also looked a little shocked, obviously she didn't expect the emperor to make such a decision. I was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
To be honest, the current Yan Lie is no longer just a Ming Jun. Such a self-sacrificing mind is really not comparable to ordinary people.
But the end doesn't seem to care.
"It's okay, for some reason, after telling you, I feel much better." Yan Lie laughed and slowly walked out of the main hall with Li Quan following.
