The stool was visited in front of the former Ministry of Rites, the Book of Duan, the King of Shu, and Liu Zhuguo.

The old man sat down quietly.

Dozens of old men with dove canes also sat here.

The rest of the people all knelt in the street, no one spoke, and outside the imperial city, there was a strange silence.

"What are you doing here?" The King of Shu frowned, and his gaze fell on the oldest old man in front of him.

"What don't we want to do, don't you want to force His Majesty the Emperor to cancel the imperial examination?"

"Yes, we are sitting here now, and those villagers are also kneeling here, if you persecute Your Majesty, we will support Your Majesty."

"You are the officials, we are the people, maybe you can try to kill us all." The old man closed his eyes and didn't even look at the King of Shu.

"Bastard, what do you want to do, do you want to rebel?" The King of Shu was furious.

With so many people kneeling here, Ma Shan could make the emperor compromise and cancel the imperial examination.

But these useless old things suddenly all poured over, and they brought so many people in the capital.

What is this for?

These little pariahs dare to oppose them?

He also let himself kill them all, and killed the old man with the dove staff in front of the emperor, and he was the king of Shu who was too long?

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, it is you who want to rebel, kneeling at the entrance of the imperial city early in the morning, are you preparing to force the palace?"

"Do you still have Your Majesty in your eyes?"

"Do you think that you are outnumbered, but when you look back, how many people are eager to swallow you." Yao Xiaoren walked out and reprimanded the King of Shu with a cold face.

"Bastard, Yao Xiaoren, you dare to slander this king." The king of Shu was furious.

If you swing your fist, you have to do it.

Yao Xiaoren is not an ordinary person, when he entered the door of the house, he hit all the way from the door to the inner office.

With just a slight wave, the old bone of the King of Shu was pressed back to the stool by him.

Seeing that the King of Shu was pressed back by Yao Xiaoren, the emperor was not only not angry at all, but also a lot happier in his heart.

As long as this emperor of his own does not speak, no one dares to touch these people in the capital.

And these officials in front of them who are persecuting themselves either swallow back what they just said to themselves, or they keep kneeling here.

"Your Majesty, are you going to look at it like that?" Du Shangshu looked up at the emperor.

Du Shangshu knew that only the emperor could solve this dilemma.

If there were only a few dozen, hundreds of people from the capital, no one would care about them.

But how many people kneeling behind him, there are tens of thousands.

There were also dozens of old men with dove sticks sitting in front of them.

These people are old enough to be their fathers, or even grandparents.

Do they dare to do anything to these people?

If you don't do it well, it will be recorded and become a shame for future generations.

"Your Majesty, do you want to make the entire court lose confidence for these people?" Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Du Shangshu spoke again.

He even threatened the emperor with the loss of confidence in the emperor.

As soon as Du Shangshu's words came out, he already regretted it.

Sure enough, the emperor's face instantly turned cold.

"Mr. Du, I respect you as a gentleman, but you seem to have crossed the line a bit." The emperor stood in front of Du Shangshu with a gloomy gaze.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, so he said wild words, if he dislikes His Majesty, His Majesty will kill the old minister." Duane is already completely out of the way.

He knew that he had completely angered the emperor.

Holding back at this moment doesn't change anything.

"Okay, Mr. Du has such a heart of concern for the country and the people, I am very pleased, but so many people are in favor of the implementation of the imperial examination, how do you let me decide?"

"Or I will give you a chance to kill all the people who kneel behind you." The emperor said slowly, his eyes already spreading with murderous intent.

"My father is angry, Du Shangshu is just a little anxious, Du Shangshu is a veteran of the two dynasties after all, and he has no merit and hard work." The second prince hurriedly came over to persuade.

Duane persecuted the emperor so much, but it was easy for the emperor to be more determined to promote the imperial examination in order to win the support of the people.

Is Duane really old, and still treats the emperor as his student?

The emperor snorted coldly, glanced at the tens of thousands of people in front of him, and didn't know what to do for a while.

His eyes fell on Chen Changfeng, only to realize that he hadn't said a word from just now to now.

"Father is relieved, it won't be long before they will leave on their own."

"If there is something wrong with my father, go back first, there are sons and daughters here." When Chen Changfeng saw the emperor looking at him, he immediately arched his hand and said.

The emperor didn't understand what Chen Changfeng meant.

But he knew that even if he stood here, there was no way to make either side compromise.

It's better to go back and deal with your own business.

So under the stunned gaze of everyone, the emperor led the Imperial Forest Army back to the palace.

All that remained were the officials and civilians kneeling outside.

"Second brother, what does he want to do, sixth brother?"

"Spending here like this?" The third prince's face was gloomy, Chen Changfeng actually let so many people kneel here in such a short period of time, it really didn't make them expect.

"I guess it is, but these old things are old, and they definitely won't last long, as long as the old things die here, the sixth will not be able to eat and walk around." The second prince had a cold face.

What was supposed to be a foolproof plan has now made such a mistake.

Fortunately, they always appear as a positive image in front of the emperor.

It gave them a lot of peace of mind.

Moreover, the second prince believed that the people sitting in front were too old to hold out for long.

And what about the rest of the people who knelt there?

Don't they want to eat?

Kneeling there all the time?

Obviously, the second prince's expectation was wrong.

Outside the emperor's return to the palace, the people who were kneeling on the ground all sat up.

They were not in a hurry, but were chatting quietly with their companions.

Dozens of elderly people sitting in front of them had no problems at all, some people brought them tea and water, and they had snacks when they were hungry.

The sun was getting bigger, and the maids who followed Tang Xue'er in the East Palace gave them umbrellas.

On the contrary, it was the official kneeling on the ground, dizzy and swollen with hunger at the moment, his chest was pressed against his back, and even his lips were chapped.

"Binhu Restaurant provides special meals, everyone has a share, please line up one by one to receive them."

"Hengyang Restaurant food, please come here to pick it up."

"Yueyang Restaurant ......"

It was just around noon, and at about the same time, the street next to it was pushed over with food in a cart.

There were more than 100 carts, and the guys from the restaurant followed.

The people who were originally sitting on the ground were all lined up at the moment, receiving their meals one by one.

After that, he sat behind the officials and ate deliciously.

After eating, he quietly cleaned up the ground and sat back in his position just now.

Dozens of old people in front of them sat on stools, and the palace maid carefully fed them.

It was all the greedy haraths of the officials in front of him.

"The second prince, the third prince, we are also hungry." An official suddenly shouted at the two.

The second prince's face was slightly gloomy.

He could see that Chen Changfeng was ready to fight them to the end.

Otherwise, how can even the restaurant deliver food in advance?

"Come on, go outside and find someone to deliver food, I want to see who can't stand it first." The second prince shouted with the little guy beside him.
