Chapter 15: The Ministers Attack
Ying Zheng's cold voice resounded through the Golden Palace.
After he finished saying this, all the courtiers were stunned.
"Yesterday, the prime minister reported this matter to me, and I already know that this matter is true."
Ying Zheng's face was unwavering, and he looked indifferently at the courtiers below.
It's just that after this sentence, many courtiers immediately exploded.
"Your Majesty, if this matter is true, it must be strictly investigated!"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Gongzi Fusu secretly built a dungeon, and he must have the heart of not being subordinate!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"Your Majesty, Gongzi Fusu has been diligent and hardworking in the past, and he is open-minded, there must be a secret in this matter, please let Your Majesty know!"
"Your Majesty......"
Suddenly, one by one, the courtiers stepped forward, some said that Fusu had bad intentions, some said that things were strange, some were anxious, and some were not alarmed.
And all of this was expected by Ying Zheng and Li Si.
Li Si understood that he couldn't rely on this matter to bring down Fusu, this was just an appetizer.
Ying Zheng knew that Li Si said this, but he just kicked off the prelude to the impeachment of Fusu, looking at the appearance of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, he was already a little clear in his heart.
"Shut up."
At this moment, Ying Zheng's brows furrowed, and he suddenly raised his voice.
After a sentence, the entire court was silent for a moment, and no one dared to say a word more.
The majesty of the emperor is absolute majesty, which cannot be violated by anyone.
Including Li Si, all the courtiers knelt in the main hall, their heads bowed deeply, not daring to look at Long Wei.
"I said it, I already know about it!"
"Fusu did not build the underground palace behind his back, and there was no dirt and dirt in the underground palace."
"What, do I want to explain it to you in detail?"
Ying Zheng's voice was a little angry, and the sound was like thunder.
Under the power of the dragon, all the courtiers prostrate on the ground, and some even trembled, and no one dared to speak again.
"Alright, let's all get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
With Yingzheng's order, these courtiers dared to get up, but no one dared to mention this matter anymore.
"However, Fusu built an underground palace privately, but it was inconsistent with the laws of the imperial court."
Ying Zheng said, looked at Li Si, and asked.
"Prime Minister, if you follow the laws of Great Qin, what crime should you be guilty of?"
This sentence is to kick the ball directly to Lis.
Didn't you join my son in the court? Then I ask you, what am I going to do with my son?
Hearing this, Li Si's heart suddenly burst out, and his heart was broken.
His mind raced and he spoke.
"Your Majesty, you can't punish the doctor, and the law can't beat the emperor."
"Prince Fusu is the eldest son of His Majesty, although the minister has the right to inspect the hundred officials, but he does not have the right to hold the hundred officials accountable."
"Besides, Your Majesty already knows what Gongzi Fusu has done, and the ministers are bold, please ask Your Majesty to make a decision himself."
Li Si saluted respectfully and said a few words that were not salty or light.
He is a clever and exquisite heart, and he has already heard Yingzheng's attitude from Yingzheng's words.
Last night, he had already reported all these things to Yingzheng, and he was furious, but he did not punish Fusu, which explains one thing.
In the eyes of Ying Zheng, the matter of this underground palace is no longer a big deal.
If you make a fuss about this matter again, you will be asking for hardship.
"Your Majesty, my Great Qin has strict laws, even if the palace nobles break the law, they will be guilty of the same crime as the common people!"
At this moment, half of the old ministers stepped forward, and their words were sonorous and powerful.
This person is Langzhong Ling Wang Qian, not a native of Qin, but a bureaucrat who was promoted in Zhao after Yingzheng unified the world.
Wang Qian is upright, very iron-headed, Yingzheng also took a fancy to Wang Qian's temperament, so he made him one of the nine Qings.
It's just that after these words were spoken, Li Si and the others shook their heads secretly.
Wang Qian's lieutenant order, I'm afraid he has done it.
"The same crime as the common people?"
When Ying Zheng heard this, he didn't laugh angrily and asked.
"Wang Langzhong, then tell me, how should the crime of Fusu be determined?"
"Your Majesty, if what the prime minister said is true, he should cut off all the support of Gongzi Fusu and send it to the frontier guard!"
Wang Qian turned his head sideways, didn't think about it, and said the words in his heart.
If this happened to ordinary people, the main culprit would be cut in half, and even all his close relatives and even his neighbors would suffer.
"Well, that's good."
Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said with a smile.
"I remember, if according to the laws of Great Qin, if there are people who plot against each other, they will destroy the three clans and make a decision."
"How did it come to your mouth that it became a frontier of distribution?"
When Wang Qian heard this, instead of having any fear, he spoke again and said.
"Fusu is the emperor's heir, he can't be added with a sword and axe, and he is the eldest son of His Majesty, and the law of the Yi clan does not apply, so it ......"
"Therefore, should we be lenient?"
Ying Zheng directly interrupted Wang Qian's words, raised his eyebrows, and said.
"According to the laws of the Qin State, I am also guilty, according to your will, do you want to strip me of my support and send me to the frontier?"
When this sentence came out, Rao is Wang Qian, no matter how iron-headed he was, he knew that he had kicked the iron plate.
He immediately knelt on the ground and bowed his head.
"Your Majesty, the minister has no such intention, no such intention!"
"Your Majesty, Your Minister......"
"Come on!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand at this moment, and the guards outside the hall immediately entered the hall and knelt in front of the door.
"Take this Wang Qian down, press him into the prison, and ask for beheading after the autumn!"
"This person dares to usurp my Great Qin laws and disrupt my Great Qin government, it's not a pity to die!"
After Ying Zheng's words were finished, Wang Qian was immediately stupid.
He hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is not guilty, the old minister is not guilty, Your Majesty ......"
Where do the two guards care about this, they only listen to Yingzheng's orders.
This time, he stepped forward directly, as if he was carrying a chicken, and carried Wang Qian and pulled him down.
In the entire hall, all the courtiers bowed their heads slightly, and Wang Qian's roar kept coming from their ears.
"Your Majesty...... The old minister was wronged...... Wronged ......"
The voice faded away, faded away.
It was only at this moment that Ying Zheng restrained the smile on his face and became serious again.
He looked at Lees and asked.
"Prime Minister, do you think my disposition is fair?"
"Your Majesty is arbitrary and fair!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
As he spoke, Li Si knelt directly on the ground, and the mountain exhaled.
Immediately, all the officials fell to their knees and shouted long live.
Ying Zheng sneered in his heart and spoke again.
"Get up."
After all the courtiers got up, Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and asked.
"Prime Minister, yesterday you told me that my unscrupulous son Fusu not only built an underground palace in the dormitory, but also tried every means to collect money and monitor hundreds of officials."
"Why don't you talk about this to the court again?"
Li Si was shocked when he heard this, and he felt that something was wrong with today's Yingzheng, and he was moody.
His mind was racing, and he said hard.
"Your Majesty, what the minister said...... It's true! ”
"That's good, let's take it out and talk about it."
