Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-Six: Clouds Gather

Zhao Qinian didn't know how long it had been since he had left the capital, even if it was very close to the capital, it was a novel experience for him.

Today, Yang Qi is going to reveal the truth about the assassination to the world, which makes the little fighting spirit he just ignited not long ago exhausted, seeing that there are close people outside the account, and the minister will not be unable to see himself, so he leaned back in his chair gently, fantasizing in his heart about the scene of his father-in-law continuing to run the government for him.

The guards sent Yang Qi to the middle of the field, then retreated to the side and stood in a circle, surrounding Yang Qi in the middle.

The emperor's head is six Shangshu, and Li Jinglan did not come, so he was presided over by the Criminal Department.

The official of the First Criminal Department received the signal, stood up and held the holy decree and said loudly: "The regent Yang Qi, who was favored by the first emperor, has been ordered to take charge of the government and clean up the world for 20 years. However, the prosperous era is coming, Yang Qi stabbed in front of the palace, the officials were frightened, the emperor was angry, Nian Qi had many years of high achievements, and the truth was made public to the world, and there was no deception, so I admired this!"

Yang Qi was wearing a prison uniform, his hair was neatly groomed, his hands and feet were shackled, he stood straight, and he had a belly that could be called a general's belly, but he didn't have the temperament of a general.

He smiled after listening to the holy decree, and felt that this level should have been written by Zhao Qinian himself, and he might have changed it many times in order to meet various requirements.

After bowing down to thank him, Yang Qi suddenly retreated with a thud, jumping everyone down, and the onlookers were also in turmoil.

The guards suppressed it with a deafening sound of gunfire, and the field was silent again, but Li Congwen, who had always been relaxed, frowned, feeling that something was not right.

"Ministerβ€”"

Yang Qi's voice made by internal force clearly reached everyone's ears, including Zhao Qinian.

Zhao Qinian didn't remember when Yang Qi called himself a minister last time, and he didn't even remember if his father-in-law had called himself like that, just when he was stunned, he heard Yang Qi speak again.

"The minister is guilty. ”

Zhao Qinian almost got up from the chair, settled down and guessed that this was his father-in-law's words, and hurriedly pulled out a smile and gasped for two breaths to lean back on the back of the chair again, but he didn't realize that he was holding the armrest of the chair very tightly.

The official of the criminal department was signaled again, and asked in a loud voice, "What are your crimes?" ”

Yang Qi scratched his stomach, feeling that he didn't seem too sincere just now, and his repentance was not enough, so he kowtowed to Zhao Qinian again.

"The minister is guilty. ”

Yang Qi said it again.

The official of the Criminal Department looked up again, saw his Shangshu nodding, wiped the cold sweat on his head, "Please tell me truthfully." ”

After saying that, I want to slap myself, what do you use?

Yang Qi raised his head but didn't speak, and the audience was silent for a while.

The official of the criminal department only felt that his cold sweat was rolling out, and when he looked at the people to the south, he always felt that countless eyes were gathered on him, and those eyes seemed to be full of smiles, and he was the joke.

The cold sweat was blown by the yin wind, and he couldn't help but shiver, and was thinking about whether he should stop at home tomorrow and rest for two days, Yang Qi spoke.

"There are too many sins to talk about for a while, let me think about it. ”

He felt he needed to tell him now.

Li Congwen on the side sneered and laughed, and the fat man next to him was so frightened that he took two steps back.

Li Congwen felt that he didn't need to worry when he saw Yang Qi's style, and so did Zhao Qinian on the high platform.

Yang Qi said to think about it, even if he was a prisoner now, no one dared to urge him, so he could only let him kneel on the ground and think.

Yang Qi felt that he was not comfortable kneeling, so he simply sat down cross-legged with his feet forked, forgetting all the thoughts he wanted to appear repentant just now.

"When the first emperor was a regent, he ordered his ministers to assist the prince in governing and teaching the prince, but the ministers were greedy for pleasure and wasted political affairs, which violated the favor of the first emperor, which is the first sin. Yang Qi thought for a long time and said, this tone still didn't want to repent, more like an old man reminiscing about the past.

Among the important ministers present, Chen Kang was the youngest, Yang Qi said that he had never experienced it, he had only heard it said, and he didn't understand what it meant, even Zhao Qinian.

It's just that he doesn't understand why his father-in-law is lying?

"The first emperor handed over all the Imperial Forest Army at that time to the ministers, and ordered the ministers to lead the troops to quell the rebellion, but the ministers first gained power, but they got carried away, delayed for more than a month, and missed the opportunity, resulting in heavy losses for the Imperial Forest Army, and the son of Chen Engong died, which is the second crime. ”

Zhao Qinian's eyes widened, and he faintly felt that something was wrong.

"The ministers relied on the promotion of the first emperor and held heavy troops, but they were helpless and difficult to resist the kings. His Majesty cares about the people of Mingwu, and gives advice for the ministers, and the ministers are invincible according to His Majesty's plans, but the ministers are greedy for merit and rewards, and take the merits of His Majesty, which is the third crime. ”

Zhao Qinian stood up suddenly, but felt dizzy again, and after shaking it twice, he was still flustered, and muttered: "No, no......"

But no one heard, and no one saw it.

Yang Qi looked up, smiled, and continued to use his internal strength to say loudly: "The merit of counterinsurgency coupled with the heavy troops in his hands, the ministers acted in the court, and many times they used their own names to do other people's policies, and many times they committed crimes, and acted arbitrarily. It is difficult to resist the loyalty and courage of all officials, the fourth sin is that it is difficult for Your Majesty to do anything if you are bound, and it is difficult for the wise men to be jealous and offer good advice. ”

"That's not right...... Wrong...... Stop, stop!" Zhao Qinian finally shouted after the curtain.

Taizheng, who was outside the account, also recovered from the shock when he heard it, and hurriedly asked people to pass the word.

The official of the Criminal Department who was in charge of presiding over it before was already stupid, he guessed that Yang Qi would admit to a crime that was not light or serious today, but he didn't expect Yang Qi to say that his sin was so serious, so serious that it didn't seem to be true.

He didn't dare to speak after hearing His Majesty's order, but his faint trembling voice was overshadowed by Yang Qi as soon as he came out.

The minister also issued a chivalrous decree to collect the world's heroes for the use of the imperial court, and exterminated many Jianghu sects, but in fact it was to avenge personal revenge. The minister also convicted Chen Engong of treachery and sent him to prison, but the two were innocent, and the minister did not admit his guilt. ”

Yang Qi's voice became louder and louder, and then said: "The minister also tried in vain to form a party in the DPRK and the central government, and tried to collude with the generals of the forbidden army many times, but the loyalty of the forbidden army can be shown to the sun and the moon, and it is not to be deceived.

The minister tried to collude with the king of the north, promising him to help me take the throne and share half of the country with him, but the king of the north should not, fearing that the army would be turbulent, so he had to secretly order the cavalry of the northern frontier outside the capital to be on guard. The minister was not greedy enough, coveted the throne, and had no choice, so he had to stab himself but was helplessly stopped.

Recently, the minister recalled the past in prison and felt very guilty, betraying the will of the previous emperor, violating His Majesty's trust, although he died and could not escape the blame, the minister implored His Majesty to give him death!"

After Yang Qi finished speaking, he changed from sitting to kneeling, and bowed to the ground in front of the high platform.

The autumn wind has passed, and the clouds have gathered.

Zhao Qinian staggered out of the tent, pushed away Taizheng and Luo Li, who stepped forward to support, with tears on his face and an angry face, pointed at Yang Qi who was lying on the ground and cried: "Why did my father-in-law abandon me?"

It's a pity that the wind is very noisy.

After Zhao Qinian finished speaking, his feet were weak and he was about to fall.

Tai Zheng and Luo Li were startled, hurriedly held on, and were about to shout, when Gonggong Hong and Ri Ying appeared behind Zhao Qinian, dragging his body.

While helping Zhao Qinian in, Gonggong Hong said softly: "Don't make a noise, go and return to the palace." ”

No one noticed the scene of Zhao Qinian fainting, and everyone was either in shock or looking at Yang Qi, which had not yet caused a riot.

Tai Zheng nodded hurriedly, turned around and saw Yang Qi who was still lying on the ground, and asked, "What about General Yang?"

As soon as his words fell, the old Shangshu of the Criminal Department puffed up his breath and shouted: "According to the law of Mingwu, Yang Qi will be beheaded on the street in fifteen days to set an example!"

The old man's voice could not be heard far before someone was summoned everywhere.

Yang Qi got up and bowed again, "Bow and thank the emperor!"
