Chapter 6: The Prince's Cruelty
Emperor Wu was escorted all the way to Weiyang Palace by Li Yunxing.
The three princes and nine kings, and the harem beauties also followed.
It wasn't until the imperial physician entered the palace to treat Emperor Wu that Li Yunxing withdrew from the palace.
Outside the dormitory, a group of old ministers were whining and mourning at this time, asking to see Emperor Wu immediately.
The female dependents are mostly teary-eyed, but only Liu Ruxu is still calm and can afford the name of this mother's honor in the world.
One of the hundred officials suddenly stood up, "Face saint!" I want to meet the Holy One! β
It is the Zongzheng Siqing who is in charge of the affairs of the royal family and the clan in the Jiuqing of the court, Wu Shujing.
Li Yunxing has an evil fire in his heart, and since he became the prince of the prison state, none of the three princes and nine ministers have congratulated him.
Emperor Wu was unconscious, and this group of filthy puppets still wanted to disturb Emperor Wu's peace, but they simply didn't take him as a prince in their eyes!
Li Yunxing's vicious eyes slowly walked towards Wu Shujing.
Wu Shujing was over sixty years old, with gray hair, he looked at Li Yunxing, and there was indescribable disgust in his eyes.
He strongly demanded to face the saint immediately, that is, he hoped that Emperor Wu could withdraw the holy decree and depose the prince of the prison state!
It's just that he didn't expect Li Yunxing to step forward and kick him away.
"Bang!" A muffled sound was heard.
Wu Shujing was directly rolled out a few steps away by this force, like a deflated ball.
"Ahem...... You...... Burst! After opening his mouth and spurting out a mouthful of blood, Wu Shujing couldn't stand up anymore and fell to the ground and passed out.
"The prince is cruel! Zongzheng Siqing is the patriarch of our dynasty, how dare you do this to him? Wen Chen next to him immediately reprimanded.
"Slap" was another slap, and Wenchen was directly slapped with two teeth, covering his cheeks and looking at Li Yunxing in horror.
"This palace is the prince of the prison country, and seeing this palace is like seeing the emperor! Wu Shujing, as the secretary of Zongzheng Temple, dared not to kneel when he saw this palace? Isn't it a rebellion? Li Yunxing sneered.
Everyone was silent for a while, and the crime of rebellion was not something that anyone could bear, especially when it involved a high position like Zongzheng Siqing.
"Bengong remembers his old age, spare him from dying, and tomorrow he will take off this official uniform and get out of the imperial capital!"
Li Yunxing glanced around indifferently, and finally his gaze fell on those Wenchen: "You guys, do you have any objections?" β
The ministers immediately closed their mouths and did not dare to speak, although they were protΓ©gΓ©s of the Son of Heaven and were appointed to be officials in the court, but if they were purged because of a trivial matter that angered the prince, it would be more than worth the loss.
Liu Zhongqing also crouched outside the hall, did not speak or raise his head during the whole process, and did not express any opinions.
As well-behaved as a little sheep, Li Yunxing knew that this old fox must not be well-intentioned, but if he could always pretend to be a docile old dog, Li Yunxing would not mind letting him live a few more days.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, you have just taken the throne and killed on a large scale, which really hurts the prestige of the imperial family!"
Suddenly, a sharp and piercing male voice came from the main hall, which was none other than Fu'an, the most favored eunuch chief beside the emperor.
It's a pity that Emperor Wu saw the wrong person, this Fu'an had already been bought by the Liu family, and he was blowing the wind around Emperor Wu.
The Liu family can have monstrous power, and Fu'an is indispensable for a credit.
Li Yunxing raised his eyebrows: "Father-in-law Fu, do you think that the palace is not properly handled?" β
"The old slave didn't dare, but he was afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would chill the hearts of the ministers because of this matter, causing them to deviate from morality, thus causing a situation that was not conducive to the Great Xia Kingdom."
Fu'an said that he didn't dare, but in fact, he never took Li Yunxing in his eyes.
What about the prince of the prison country?
Even if it is this Liu Zhongqing, he has to be honored...... Respect......
Fu'an was still dreaming at the moment when his head hit the ground, but he didn't know that he had provoked people who shouldn't be provoked.
Li Yunxing drew the sword of the palace guard, and a burst of cold light pierced the sky.
Fu'an was cut off before he could even snort, and his blood splashed him Li Yunxing.
"Even a mere eunuch dares to dictate to the affairs of the government, damn it!" Li Yunxing said lightly.
Fu'an's head was separated from his body, his legs slightly bent and arched to his knees, blood staining his front placket red.
The blood that spurted out of the broken neck splattered all over the ground and flowed down the green bricks to the knees of the loyal ministers of the hundred officials, especially Liu Zhongqing, who was the leader.
This is definitely Li Yunxing's warning, and it is also a reminder to these so-called "elders" not to be smart, otherwise they will end up like Fu'an.
During the whole process, Li Yunxing didn't even blink his eyes, and he didn't seem to see Fu'an's tragic situation at all.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and was taken by Li Yunxing's murderous aura, and was silent, and no one dared to speak out.
Li Yunxing sneered: "What? Don't have anything to say? β
The civil and military officials all lowered their heads and did not speak, but their eyes were different.
Only Liu Zhongqing was the first to react, bowing his head, "The ministers obey the order." β
When everyone saw Liu Zhongqing, they all took the initiative to give in, not to mention that they didn't say much, and then followed to bow and thank them.
"Emperor Wu has a life! Prince Xuan came to see him, and the rest of the people should stand down. β
The imperial physician walked out of the palace and read out the edict of Emperor Wu.
It seems that Emperor Wu has woken up, and the rest of the people are even more forced by the pressure of the prince, and when they see that the situation is not good, they immediately show weakness.
"Congratulations to the crown prince, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Hundreds of officials shouted in unison, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth, as if it could overturn the roof.
Li Yunxing ignored these and walked straight into the Weiyang Palace.
"See Your Majesty." Li Yunxing bowed and saluted, his attitude extremely respectful.
"Let's be flat." The Martial Emperor on the dragon couch waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down and speak.
"Thank you, Father!" Li Yunxing sat down slowly and threw the blood-stained saber to the ground.
Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "The prince just now, isn't he so majestic!" The eunuchs who kicked me and killed me are really worthy of being the future prince of my Wu Dynasty! β
Li Yunxing was slightly stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then immediately got up and asked for guilt, "Father and emperor forgive the sin, the son just can't see the traitor and villain and confuse the public, so he will kill the chicken and make an example, and ask the father to forgive the son's unfounded behavior." β
"Hehe, it's okay, the prince doesn't have to blame himself, I don't mean to blame you."
Li Yunxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Father Xie." β
"The king should reward and punish clearly, punish the traitorous ministers, punish the ministers, and correct the Wu Dynasty. I am very pleased that you have done a great job today! β
There was approval in Emperor Wu's tone, but there was a hint of worry in the depths of his eyes, and there seemed to be other hidden feelings.
"The sons and daughters obey the teachings of their father." Li Yunxing replied.
"Do you understand, today you are the enemy of the hundred officials of the Wu Dynasty, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
"This Wu Dynasty is the world of the Li royal family, the whole world is not the king's land, if anyone is not satisfied, they will be killed! If one person refuses, I will kill one person, and if a hundred people do not obey, I will slaughter a hundred people! Li Yunxing said domineeringly, and a trace of madness and bloodlust appeared in his eyes.
Tolerance can not be exchanged for respect, and only suppression by force can be feared.
