75. The rebellion of the people and the separation of their relatives
Even people with different intentions like Yu Xinghai did not dare to refute Zhang Daniu's situation, let alone the rest of the people who were not so deeply involved in the virtual organization.
And the officials who had stood up before after learning of Li Tianming's attitude retreated one after another, and even Gu Bao shrank behind Shi Jingshan, hoping that Li Tianming did not find himself.
For a moment, the empty council hall was eerily quiet, and the falling needles could be heard until...
"Your Highness, the eleven-headed demon king is here!"
At this moment, the eunuch of the Northwest Dongchang Flower brought the demon king in the edict prison over.
"Your Highness, the little monkey is willing to descend, and from now on you will be the first to look forward!"
Facing the gaze of countless northwest officials in the hall, the barn monkey demon king, who had been taking good care of him, was the first to react and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Although the rest of the demon kings have been tortured by the flower eunuchs a little miserably these days, the Cang Monkey Demon King is the wise man in their group, so he did not hesitate to meet after the Cang Monkey Demon King knelt.
"Let's go aside!"
To be honest, Li Tianming is still a little unbearable for the barangaw demon king who is the same monkey clan as the six-eared macaque, but this is by no means the time for a woman's benevolence, so Li Tianming did not hesitate to put the barang monkey demon king aside with the other demon kings.
"I have always believed in the palace of the king, and I will not offend anyone if people do not offend me!"
After the demon king was escorted aside, looking at the northwest officials with different faces below, Li Tianming slowly spoke.
It's just that the officials in the northwest agree with Li Tianming's statement on the surface, but secretly they seem to be very disdainful.
said that he didn't know that all the people in the Li family in the northwest were war maniacs, from the first generation of Weiguo Gong Li Wenzhong to the five principals of the three generations of Li Tianming, all of them were iron-blooded and strong-handed people, not only did they never compromise in the face of threats, but even launched foreign wars from time to time, especially Li Xuanji.
"However, there is no tolerance for those who commit adultery and criminals, starting with my grandfather. ”
"I hope you adults will do it yourself! I believe that there are still many hot-blooded men in the northwest, which can be seen from the battle a few days ago, and then Hua Chengfeng is announcing the reward for this battle!"
Eunuch Hua is secretly the head of the northwest of the East Factory, and naturally he can't act in this capacity because of the current hatred of the Ming Dynasty for the East Factory, so he has the identity on the surface, and the Northwest Wei Wangfu is flattering.
"Wait!"
Just as the flower eunuch took out the performance of Li Tianming, which was recognized by the Ming court, and the holy decree issued by the Ming court, and was about to read it, a voice interrupted the flower eunuch's movements.
As a eunuch, Eunuch Hua has always had a dark psychology, so he can't see anyone looking down on him, and he is even more hateful to those who plan to be himself, so he looked up at the first time, ready to teach this person who doesn't know what to do or bad to teach him some lessons.
However, when he saw the born person, Eunuch Hua reluctantly gave up.
The current person is Shi Jingshan, the new head of the Shi family in Yunbei, his father is Shi Antong, who followed Li Wenzhong, the Duke of Weiguo, and later served Shi Antong, who was the second generation of the Duke of Guoji, even if he was killed by Yu Qian, but he had a high prestige in the northwest.
In fact, the goal of the Northwest officials' tandem has never been Li Tianming, after all, they all follow Li Tianming to eat, and if Li Tianming falls, it will not be good for them.
Their targets have always been Li Tianming's cronies, such as Yu Qian, such as Eunuch Hua and others.
Not to mention this, Shi Antong is an old man who survived the war with the second generation of Guogong, and he is one of the most trusted people of the old lady.
For this reason, Li Tianming did not dare to tell the old lady the news that Shi Antong was dead, but fortunately, the old lady was not there at the moment, which gave Li Tianming a lot of leeway.
Not to mention Shi Antong, just to say Shi Jingshan, after Shi Antong retired, he resisted the banner of the Shi family at the age of a weak crown, and successively served Li Xuanji, Li Wouji, Li Tiandao, and Li Tianming.
can be called a fourth-generation old minister, and at the same time, as the current head of the Shi family, his words make the northwest tremble, but it is also an existence that no one can ignore.
Not to mention the influence of the Shi family itself, just to say that the protégés and former officials cultivated by the two generations of the Shi family for decades are a terrifying number for the northwest.
Therefore, after Eunuch Hua found out that the person who interrupted was Shi Jingshan, even if he was unhappy, he couldn't help but put away his careful thoughts, turned his eyes to Shi Jingshan, and waited for his follow-up.
Shi Jingshan regretted it a little after issuing the word slow, but he was not as optimistic about the situation as the Shi family, for decades, the Shi family and the Wei Wangfu had already been both prosperous and loss-making.
Therefore, for Li Tianming's orders, even if it damages the prestige of the Shi family, Shi Jingshan still implements it very well.
After doing so much foreshadowing, Shi Jingshan can't be allowed to retreat now, otherwise not only will he die, but even the entire Shi family will fall into a place of no return. This is unacceptable to Shi Jingshan, who has accepted Confucianism since childhood.
Therefore, Shi Jingshan made up his mind and acted according to Li Tianming's words, and after the eyes of everyone in the hall converged, he held his head high and said:
"There is no hurry to reward him, but the old man has something that is still unknown, and I ask His Royal Highness King Wei for advice!"
Shi Jingshan tried his best to straighten his body and said to Li Tianming.
"Please!"
For Shi Jingshan, Li Tianming still has to give some face, not only because the Shi family has been fighting for the interests of the Li family, but more importantly, Shi Jingshan is not like his father Shi Antong who relies on the old and sells the old, Shi Jingshan still made unknown contributions during the period when he was the prefect of Haixi Prefecture.
It not only stabilized Haixi Province, but also made Haixi Province develop by leaps and bounds.
For such talents, Li Tianming is naturally tolerant.
"The old minister heard that the first hummingbird clan betrayed His Highness when the war came, so that there were many more senseless losses in the northwest. And not only did Your Highness not dispose of your personal female official bee feather cloak, but also turned a blind eye to the hummingbird clan, such behavior is really chilling to us!"
Shi Jingshan carefully grasped the proportion, not only to complete the task assigned by Li Tianming, but also not to say that it angered Li Tianming too much.
"What Lord Shi said is very true, His Royal Highness is so strict with the demon race, but he is so strict with the human race, it is really biased. ”
Yu Xinghai, who had been connected with Shi Jingshan before, was afraid of Li Tianming's series of methods and did not dare to move.
But right now, Shi Jingshan, one of the oldest people in the Northwest, has jumped out, and according to the previous agreement, Yu Xinghai naturally doesn't mind coming out to add bricks.
"Lord Shi is reasonable, if His Royal Highness King Wei can't deal with it impartially, my horse clan will definitely not follow!"
Although Ma Wujiang, the most talented son of the clan, died under Li Tianming's knife, although the horse clan was cautious because of his consistent low status, the situation was very good, and he had to come out to express his opinion.
"Your Highness does not divide rewards and punishments, my Amethyst Rabbit clan is not convinced, although the hummingbird clan and I belong to the same demon clan, but I have always despised the hummingbird clan as a person, and I ask Your Highness to deal with it impartially. ”
Seeing that the rest of the agreed forces jumped out, the patriarch of the Amethyst Rabbit clan also took the opportunity to stand up, and said solemnly.
It's just that he is different from the rest of the people in that the rest of the people think that Shi Jingshan opposes Li Tianming and sees the hope of overthrowing Li Tianming and fully supports it, but the Amethyst Rabbit patriarch just wants to push the boat down the river to get some benefits.
For a while, all those who opposed Li Tianming, either for themselves or for the forces behind them, jumped out one after another, and under the anger of the masses, it seemed that Li Tianming was a little betrayal.
