In the official hall, the majesty was solemn, and Luo Xianzhi sat at the top.

There were a few people in the hall who were held, two of them were Fang Shi, and the other was the merchant who traded at the beginning, and the eunuch who denounced the prince, all of them were full of panic, and a few people were watching on the side, Luo Xianzhi didn't go around in circles, and asked directly: "Tell me, why did you frame the prince?" ”

Frame the Prince!

As soon as these words were asked, several people in the hall were trembling, and the four people in the hall were even trembling and wailing: "Lingjun, wronged, how dare the villain frame the prince?" ”

Several people kept kowtowing, like pounding garlic, and their faces were all terrified colors.

Luo Xianzhi said calmly to the main book of records: "Write down what they just said, and frame the prince in order to conspire to overthrow the status of the prince's East Palace." ”

？？？

The four people on the ground stopped howling in an instant, stunned in place, some tears were still flowing, snot flickering in and out, but they couldn't speak, a little confused, did they just say this?

Several other officials in the hall, including the chief bookkeeper, were a little at a loss, this is the frame, someone asked tentatively: "Ling Jun, is this against the law of the country?" ”

His voice was soft.

Luo Xianzhi looked at everyone and asked: "You are all important ministers of the country, and you have participated in countless meetings at all levels, including the imperial court, the ministry, and the minister, so there must be a record in the end." ”

Several people nodded, of course, the conclusion of the meeting should be recorded, especially the public opinion of the imperial court, which should be recorded in the history books, Jun Wu joke is not to say that the emperor is really golden, but the edict stamped with the emperor's seal cannot become, so they said: "Naturally, everything has a file, everything must be remembered, this is the requirement of a thousand-year inheritance." ”

Luo Xianzhi asked again with an expressionless face: "This official is still the order, and His Majesty has let this official take charge of the matter of making the edict, do you know what this work has to do?" ”

One of Luo Xian's shoulders was the Shangshu and Zhongshu provinces, and he was powerful, and several people replied: "It is to record the results of the deliberations of Your Majesty and the important ministers, and then write it down in official documents." ”

Luo Xianzhi nodded and said: "Everyone in the world knows, but the most critical point of this matter is that Your Majesty will not use official documents when expounding his will, and it will not be logical, it is very likely that the preface does not match the afterword, hesitation back and forth, and even some things are not easy for Your Majesty to say, otherwise it will not look good in the history books."

What this duke has to do is to write down what His Majesty really wants to do, and what is written down in the paper is the resolution, which is the fact.

Do you think so? ”

Several people have never been exposed to this kind of government affairs, and they have a feeling of enlightenment, and they all bowed down and said: "The county prince is high! ”

Luo Xianzhi stared at a few people in the hall: "It's the same now, what these sinners say is not important, the important thing is to understand the meaning of their words, this is a profound knowledge, you have to listen carefully." ”

The four people in the hall have been shocked by Luo Xianzhi's shameless words, how can this be the same, figuring out the intention is to do things better, figuring out them, no, that's not figuring out at all, it's a naked frame!

Without waiting for them to speak, Luo Xianzhi asked again: "The conspiracy to overthrow the position of the crown prince's East Palace, this matter is not good for you, let's talk about it, who is behind it?" ”

It's still a bland voice, but it makes people shudder, this matter is not good for these people, so who is it good for?

It's just scary, what is Luo Xianzhi going to do? Is it to set off a big mess in the country of Liang?

What happened just now, where did a few people dare to speak, they were all silent, Luo Xianzhi raised his eyebrows, and didn't speak?

"Write down, the conspiracy to resist the imperial court investigation, there is no repentance, there is a vain attempt to damage the Liang, and the three clans should be exterminated."

The merchant was suddenly anxious, this is his family with the most, the three clans are exterminated, and hundreds of members of the whole family will die, he roared loudly: "Ling Jun, you can't do this, how can you be punished without guilt?" ”

Luo Xianzhi paused and asked in surprise, "Gone?" Write down his roaring court, punish him for several crimes, and cut him with a thousand knives. ”

Hiss!

The four people in the hall are already numb, the world-famous prime minister of Liang State, he doesn't follow the routine at all, and he is not reasonable at all, but Luo Xianzhi's face is cold and solemn and he said sharply: "Do you feel that you are extremely wronged?"

But in the eyes of my father, the four of you, a thousand knives are not enough, it is simply a heinous crime, appalling, and lawless.

My father can tell you clearly, you don't have to pretend to be wronged, you yourself are not clean in this matter, you know best.

Wash your blackened hearts and rotten fields, and see how many vicious conspiracies there are inside.

The four of you will surely die, and now confess the people behind you, and my father will spare your unsuspecting family members.

If you still make this look, then you will be all dead, this father has never been soft, when he killed the Shi clan, he was still full of people, not to mention the humble seeds of the four of you! ”

Luo Xianzhi deliberately pretended to have an arrogant expression, just to mentally hit these people, not to mention the others, it is absolutely impossible for these four people to be wronged, and they played an important role in this matter of toppling the prince.

One of the Fang Shi threw himself on the ground, still howling, "Ling Jun, the grass people are really wronged, they are really wronged." ”

Luo Xianzhi frowned deeply, and then raised the decree in his hand to the guards on both sides, and said in a deep voice: "This duke has His Majesty's decree, you can act cheaply, press him in the corner, you go and put all his family members in prison, kill half of them, and send the head over." ”

The hall fell silent again, Luo Xianzhi ordered cleanly, this kind of decisiveness was shocking, the most important thing is that he really has the right to kill people casually, and he is willing to do it.

When many officials are in power, they are reluctant to kill, which will make the reputation not very good, and even leave a reputation as a cool official in the history books, and strongmen who like to kill usually suffer huge political defeats.

But Luo Xianzhi doesn't care about these so-called reputations, even if he kills more people, he will only leave "Xianzhi majesty is heavy", "Xianzhi law enforcement is very heavy", "Xianzhi is quite strong", this kind of worst and neutral word, cool officials have nothing to do with him.

When the guard was ordered to leave, the monk felt Luo Xianzhi's determination, was a little panicked, and was about to speak, but Luo Xianzhi shouted: "Shut his mouth." ”

A white cloth ball was stuffed into his mouth, blocking all the words he wanted to say, but there was no more chance, he gasped for breath, whimpered and slurred, snot and tears fell.

Luo Xianzhi didn't ask a few more questions, and I don't know how long it took, the guards walked in with more than a dozen heads that were still dripping with blood, including old people, women, and young people.

Some people died with hideous faces, and some people's eyes were still wide open, and they couldn't see death at a glance.

Looking at the familiar head, the Fang Shi collapsed directly on the ground, his mouth gagged and he couldn't speak, but the surging tears made people feel the collapse of his heart.

Luo Xianzhi frowned and said, "Half of the people are like this? Does he still have a family outside Jianye City, check it with my father, the family just wants to be neat, and no one can be let go, go and arrest them all. ”

Hiss!

Everyone didn't know that today was the first time they gasped, but Luo Xianzhi's posture of rushing to kill was really terrifying, and people couldn't help but feel cold.

The most important thing is that Luo Xianzhi did not hesitate to do it, and did not give people a chance to regret it, which was quite terrifying, but they saw that the Fang Shi just now wanted to regret it, but he was directly gagged by Luo Xianzhi.

This kind of thing is commonplace in the Northern Dynasties, after all, the Northern Dynasties are a group of fighting Han, and the Yan State has a large number of Hu people, and it is difficult to have some wildness, not to mention the Wei State, as for the Han State, it is an ancestral killing.

But in the Southern Dynasties, after Luochu sat down on Jiangzuo, the politics were very moderate, after all, this is the gathering place of the family of the gate lords, and these people fight, mainly to win the official position, not to take their lives, and if they lose power, they will go to their hometown to stay and finish their work.

Luo Xianzhi walked down from the top slowly, and slowly paced beside a few people, "My father's words count, and if he says to kill your whole family, he will kill your whole family."

You people, all you rely on is the people behind you who have said to you, as long as you carry it hard, only you will die, and you can save your family, and if you say something, the family will not be able to keep it.

Those who only do some conspiracy use this ridiculous set.

Yes and no? ”

Several of them were already pale, their lips were full of chapped slits, and cold sweat was dripping.

Luo Xianzhi said lightly: "My father treats you people without punishment, I don't like to be beaten into tricks, my father likes to destroy all the things you cherish, so that your death will become a worthless thing."

If you want to live for a hundred years, my father wants him to leave a stench for 10,000 years.

wanted to become famous, but his father let him die in obscurity.

If he wants to be a high-ranking official, his father made him poor and unable to enter the government for the rest of his life.

If you want to keep your family, my father will kill all your family.

No matter who made the promise to you, but here in my father, he can't keep your family, even if you keep them secret, the promise they give you is all in vain.

As for worrying about retaliation afterwards, this duke thinks that you don't have to worry, as long as you confess people, this guild will kill them all, even if it is a royal family, whether it is a clan king, or a relative, this duke will make them pay the price they deserve.

Whether to let them die, or to die on their own, is a question that is not worth choosing.

You should think about it. ”

Since entering here, Luo Xianzhi has been creating a kind of personality, that is, he is completely unreasonable, regards the law of the country as nothing, and the rules as nothing, and is arrogant to the extreme, and he is extremely powerful, and he is ruthless, he can really do those things, and on the spiritual level, he will give these people one blow after another.

The gagged priest was finally taken out of the cloth, and he howled loudly, crawling to his family, and wept bitterly.

……

Luo Xianzhi held a confession in his hand, those people have been pulled down, even if they confess, a few people will die, not involving the three clans, but those in the family who know these things must also die, framing the prince This crime is too big, and the death of one person is not enough.

Luo Xianzhi walked to the side of the main book, and under the gaze of everyone, he picked up the paper that had been recorded at the beginning, looked at it, then gently tore it up, and then threw it directly into the brazier.

This move made everyone wonder and asked, "Ling Jun, what does this mean?" ”

Luo Xianzhi laughed softly: "Fabricated things, naturally do not need to stay in the world. ”

？？？ Didn't you just say that, these things are in their hearts?

There was no need for a few people to speak, from the expressions of several people, Luo Xianzhi knew what they were thinking, and said: "Since I have doubts in my heart, my father will tell you another truth today."

It is necessary to write the edict according to His Majesty's true intentions, but this does not mean that it is possible to write indiscriminately, such as what I burned just now, it is only used to scare people.

If this kind of slanderous thing really appeared in the system of the state, it would greatly undermine politics, and the entire imperial court would be hurt by this thing in the future.

According to the true record, this is the first requirement of the case code, you are all important ministers of the country in the future, and even the three princes and nine secretaries, remember, to be implemented in accordance with the law of the Great Liang. ”

When I saw Luo Xianzhi, it can be regarded as seeing what is called, the words and remarks are all finished by one person, and they all make sense.

Several people looked at each other, all a little confused, Luo Xianzhi knew that this was a typical thing that he had seen too little, so there was confusion, only a talented person like him could easily toss and turn in various rules.

"For example, think slowly, my father still has important things."

Luo Xianzhi said goodbye, and several people hurriedly bowed down to send him away, and then continued to look at each other in confusion.

……

"Your Majesty, this is the conclusion of the minister, the prince is innocent, he was indeed framed by a traitor, the cause is a non-divisive thought that should not be had, a face-to-face sentence is unspeakable, the prince is a little too different from His Majesty, he dislikes the eunuch and some of His Majesty's close ministers, so he was secretly targeted."

Luo Xianzhi reported the final result to Xiao Yan, he said a word, Xiao Yan's face was a little darker, he never imagined that he would be used, these people actually used his trust to let him kill the prince, he is the emperor!

"Lingxiu, I am the emperor, with an endless, unimaginably huge power, how dare they do this? Aren't you afraid that I will kill them? ”

Luo Xianzhi bowed calmly and said, "Yes, it is precisely because you have huge power and can easily decide a person's life and death that these thieves will do this."

One of your irrationalities, the slightest malice, falling on anyone, is enough to crush his clan.

A little bit of charity from you is enough to make a worthless person stand out, make a poor family a scholar, and even become a gate valve in the end.

This is the emperor, the most important in the world, so an excellent emperor can always maintain his own sanity, let himself have the virtues of the ancient saint king, and not anger other people because of his emotions.

We must not listen to biased opinions, listen to opinions extensively, and do not give orders at will, but be cautious about the power in our hands.

This is where the truth of the Holy Lord Mingjun lies. ”

At every appropriate juncture to advise the king, this is also what a courtier should do, the value of the minister is far beyond most people's imagination, and even plays a role no worse than those capable ministers who govern the country through the world, one makes the world better, and the other persuades the emperor to let the world not go down.

For example, Wei Zheng's kind of courtier, who has a clear view of the situation, he plays a role no worse than Fang Du, but in the eyes of many people, the ministers are useless, because many people think that the emperor is always wise and always understands everything, but in fact, the emperor will make a lot of mistakes, and he can do five out of ten things, and he is already a very good king, and a country ruled by a monarch alone is doomed to collapse.

Xiao Yan looked at the information in his hand again, sighed and asked, "Lingxiu, I want to kill some people to deter these people with bad intentions, how do you say I should kill them?" ”

Luo Xianzhi's eyes were murderous, he really hated these people who framed the prince, if these people were really allowed to succeed, the achievements of their Luo clan for two generations might really be ruined, so he immediately said coldly: "The minister's suggestion is to kill, kill, and kill, and those who don't kill will flow."

Your Majesty should take advantage of this incident to continue to elevate the crown prince, let everyone see your determination, and make up for the previous incident, the prestige lost by the crown prince, otherwise even if this matter is eliminated, the crown prince will not be affected by your trust, and it will not be easy to get rid of it. ”

Raise the crown prince.

Xiao Yan nodded and said: "Lingxiu, it's better for you to deal with this matter, the prince you go for me again, give him the reward in the palace, let him study with peace of mind, his position as prince, I will always keep it for him, and the beam will be his in the future." ”

Luo Xianzhi knew that this was Xiao Yan's compensation to the prince, because of this incident, there were some disagreements between father and son, after all, the prince knew that the emperor did not trust him so much, and the emperor also knew that the prince must be dissatisfied with himself, but there are not many people in this world who can really reconcile father and son, as long as there is no political problem, Luo Xianzhi will not say much.

……

"If there is no county prince, I am afraid that Gu is already a prisoner now, and he may even have gone to Huangquan, the county prince Yu Gu has the grace of life, and Gu really doesn't know how to repay you.

Please also ask the county to be alone. ”

Xiao Tong is a gentleman, he has suffered a lot these days, the vicissitudes of life have reached the extreme, and now he finally keeps the clouds open and sees the moon, and his gratitude to Luo Xianzhi is indescribable, he set up a banquet in the East Palace, and the princess and other close relatives attended, and everyone looked at Luo Xianzhi with gratitude.

And among them, there must be a desire to win over Luo Xianzhi, maybe it will be inappropriate, and it is more appropriate to release goodwill, everyone knows that Luo Xianzhi is the emperor's close minister, and the emperor trusts Luo Xianzhi the most.

But every time a major event happens, the magnates of the Liang State will know that they are still thinking too shallowly, and the emperor's trust in Luo Xianzhi is like trusting his own henchmen and brains.

If it weren't for Luo Xianzhi this time, who else would have saved Xiao Tong?

Everyone didn't dare to think about it at all, only Luo Xianzhi!

Luo Xianzhi raised his glass and said: "Because of His Majesty's trust, the minister was able to hold such a high position and have such great power, so he served the country wholeheartedly, so he was wholeheartedly loyal to His Majesty."

The matter of His Royal Highness is a villain's conspiracy, and even affected His Majesty, and the minister cannot watch His Majesty be deceived by traitors, so he uncovers this matter, His Royal Highness does not have to thank the minister, the minister just obeys His Majesty's orders, and then judges everything upright.

As long as His Highness is upright enough and treats His Majesty respectfully and filariously, who can hurt His Highness? ”

After that, he drank the wine in one gulp, his words were very simple, he was the emperor's courtier, he couldn't get too close to the prince, the aging emperor was sometimes an ordinary old man, and the old man was an old man who needed companionship, and he was very afraid of losing.

Luo Xianzhi's proximity to the crown prince will give Xiao Yan a feeling that he has abandoned the emperor and turned to respect the crown prince, which is something that Luo Xianzhi wants to try his best to avoid.

As long as the crown prince is divided, he will protect the prince in the court until he successfully ascends the throne.

When Xiao Tongyi thought of this, he felt very ashamed, he didn't know how many people were passing on this matter, and he didn't know how he would be recorded in the history books, but he still couldn't forget the verbal confrontation that happened when he and Xiao Yan confronted him that day.

……

The witch case ended with a large number of people being killed and more people being exiled, and during that period of time, the entire Jianye City seemed to be filled with a faint smell of blood, and more than a dozen families were implicated in this matter, at least all of them were razed by the three clans.

Among them are the Xiao family's clan and some relatives and families, as well as some of the scholars involved in it, without any softness at all.

This is what Luo Xianzhi said before, saying that if you kill the whole family, you will kill the whole family.

The occurrence of this incident made the entire Jianye City silent, and in the years that Luo Xianzhi was in power, some people actually began to miss Luo Youzhi, because Luo Xianzhi was more powerful than Luo Youzhi's methods.

Although Luo Youzhi has a tough personality and his methods are a little rough, the scale is generally not large, but Luo Xianzhi is different, his methods are a little too silky, every time he attacks suddenly, before he knows it, he has already made a trap, and then he catches them all, and then does not give people a chance, and directly disposes of them all.

Almost every time it is extremely wide-ranging, how can this not be intimidating?

……

Luo Xianzhi is a well-deserved person in Liang State, above 10,000 people, after obtaining the prince's overture, he thought to himself that even if he was not as good as he is now, he still controls the politics of Liang State, and there is no problem.

If he is given a few decades, then the Liang State will still have a lot of hope for the world, after all, the current Liang State can no longer be said to be a simple Southern Dynasty.

Half of the most fertile land in the world is in the hands of the Liang State, which has enough strength to go on the Northern Expedition, and the only thing that is lacking now is the best cavalry.

The biggest problem now is how long he can live, which is what Luo Xianzhi is more worried about, Luo's life span has not been very long, and his father Luo Youzhi died relatively early, and there are many problems in the future.

If you die in your fifties, the available time will be greatly shortened, and without Xiao Tong, can you complete the great cause of dominating the world with just Xiao Tong?

Can his son still take on the responsibility of ruling a country?

Luo Xianzhi is not sure that after all, it is already a blessing to have two generations of Wang Zuozhi's talents in a row, can he really expect three generations of Wang Zuozhi's talents?

"Your Majesty, the most critical and important thing now is to separate the Emperor of Yan and Murong Chui, and the success of the separation is better than a million male soldiers."

Instead of improving the strength of one's own country, it is better to mess up other countries, this is the truth that Luo Xianzhi has always pursued.

Besides, for a person like Luo Xianzhi, seeing the situation of Yan Kingdom, how could he endure it, not interfere, and use his wisdom to the fullest?

For a wise man, who doesn't have the dream of messing with the country with a word?

Since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of those who can achieve the effects and feats that those soldiers cannot achieve with just a three-inch incorruptible tongue.

……

There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck.

The most in this world is an accident, the prince Xiao Tong actually fell ill, after the witch case gradually subsided, he fell ill in the East Palace, alarming countless people, the imperial doctor said, he is depressed condensation, in other words, this is a heart disease, if in the words of later generations, it is depression.

The prince of a dignified country, and the prince with a relatively stable position, actually suffered from this kind of heart disease, how can this be reasonable?

At first, Xiao Yan didn't take it seriously, there was no one who didn't get sick, he asked people to send medicine over, but when he didn't get better for ten days and half a month, he felt a little bad.

In the doctor's concept, illness is a thing that depletes the vitality of the human body, and if a disease does not get better, even a minor illness will definitely cause a big problem.

When Luo Xianzhi knew about this, he only felt a little chill and a little stunned.

He remembered a story recorded in the classics of the clan, the content of the story was not complicated, but the truth told made him remember deeply.

In this world, something is always happening in reincarnation, those wise and martial kings, the number is scarce, and there are always days and years, and those mediocre and incompetent kings will always live for a long time, so there are common failures in this world, but not prosperity.

The short life of the crown prince or the emperor, this is actually not an accident, there have been very few long-lived emperors since ancient times, and the lifespans of the emperors of Wei are very short, and any illness may take away some lives.

But what Luo Xianzhi found it a little difficult to accept was that he solved the matter of witchcraft for the sake of the stability of the crown prince's position, and now that the prince has this incident, Liang Guo seems to inevitably slide into an unpredictable future.

Is this the supernatural power invincible to the number of days, and people are not as good as the sky?

Luo Xianzhi looked at the blue Qingying, he was not convinced, he was very unconvinced, he still had many years, even if one prince was gone, he could still support another prince!

————

In order to maintain the stability of the country, Luo Xianzhi brazenly launched the "witch case" that lasted six months. - General History
