Chapter 22: Encounter

There was silence above the court, and Li Tai in front of him had already lowered his head, and the arrogance when he was competing with the emperor just now had long since disappeared, and his face was pale.

He knew that the Emperor was furious.

He also thought that the emperor would be angry, but he didn't expect the emperor to be so angry in front of the ministers in front of the court.

I have to say that the temper of this emperor is quite consistent with the temper of the first emperor in the record, of course, it is just a temper.

As for talent, whether there is or not, it can only be without!

After all, there has only been one First Emperor since ancient times, and only one is enough!

The ministers are even more panicked at the moment, and the emperor's word "wake up" makes everyone frightened and uneasy.

Who in the world dares to "wake up" the emperor?

Even if Li Tai, how dare he?

The people of the Li family lowered their heads at this moment, not daring to say anything, the courage to force the palace just now has long disappeared, and the emperor's anger has been difficult to contain, God knows if the emperor will kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey first, and they are very likely to be the "chicken"!

Wu Li and many of the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory also lowered their heads and stopped talking, this matter is no longer something that they can participate in by those counselors who rely on lip service, if they are not careful, they are likely to drag themselves into the game, fall into the quagmire, and cannot get out!

Gongsun Tinglei looked panicked, and regretted a little, he shouldn't have jumped out first, what he said just now did not pose a threat to the Li family, but made Li Tai step on his reputation to a higher level.

In the end, the emperor had to be angry to clean up this mess.

Ying Kongli looked at the silent civil and military officials below, sneered, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, why don't you answer me, is it because your Aiqing's ears are too precious and my words can't reach your Aiqing's ears?" Or is my voice too low for you Aiqing to hear?"

The bodies of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty trembled, and Li Tai gritted his teeth, he couldn't let the emperor continue to speak, and if he continued, the hearts of the people on his side would be unstable.

Li Tai stood up, bowed down and said, "What Your Majesty said just now is too serious. The minister is His Majesty's eagle dog, and he should share his worries for His Majesty, and the safety of His Majesty's throne is related to the society of my Great Qin.

Therefore, it is the duty of a minister to maintain the stability of His Majesty's throne!"

Li Tai's voice fell, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were still quiet, this was the confrontation between Prime Minister Li Tai and the emperor, and they didn't dare to intervene in it.

Even the people of the Li family did not dare to echo at this moment, they could only remain silent, everyone knew that the emperor at this moment was extremely angry, if anyone dared to jump out, then the emperor in the rage was likely to let his head fall to the ground!

Ying Kongli looked at Li Tai, his gloomy face suddenly laughed, and said: "What the prime minister said is extremely true, the prime minister thinks so much about the Great Qin Society, I feel guilty in my heart!"

In the past, Lu Chunqiu sacrificed a lot to Daqin, so his matter broke out, and the first emperor took pity on him and left his clan alive!

The prime minister's dedication to Great Qin, I see it in my eyes, if one day, the prime minister accidentally breaks the law, I promise, the Li clan can save a life!"

Hearing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty fell into horror, this sentence can be said to have completely put the contradiction between the Li family and the emperor on the table, and the last sentence is even more suggesting the result of the Li family.

The people of the Li family were a little shaken at this moment, and the emperor had almost said that if I didn't fall, then the last word would be the result of the Li family!

Gongsun Tinglei was a little happy, but he was a little worried, not knowing if the emperor could fight Li Tai.

In fact, no matter whether the emperor can fight Li Tai or not, the emperor's life is worry-free, but the fate of their emperor's wings will be miserable.

Because Li Tai did not dare to attack the emperor, it was not feasible to abolish the establishment, the first emperor only had one heir of His Majesty, and the current emperor has no heirs, so the abolition of the establishment is not feasible.

Hands-on on the Emperor?

I'm afraid that those who once followed the First Emperor to defeat the Great Qin Empire, those military nobles who sat on one side of the army will be the first to refuse!

What's more, in the imperial capital, how many cultivation geniuses have emerged from the Win clan have quietly disappeared, and they don't know the hole cards of the Win clan.

Some people even suspect that the Win clan has an old antique from the Ninth Realm Immortal Realm!

In Wonderland!

The existence closest to the immortals in the legend, it is said that the first emperor of the year was in such a realm, and he once single-handedly suppressed eight Xuandao realm powerhouses who could not get up.

What's more, the Ying clan has controlled the vast empire for thousands of years and has so many heavenly and earthly treasures, who can know how many strong people they have cultivated?

This is also the reason why the royal family of the Win clan has been able to sit on the throne for thousands of years, although it has been a single lineage.

And there is the king of Zhenbei who leads 100,000 private soldiers outside, if the emperor has something to do, he is also a member of the Win clan, how can the king of Zhenbei sit idly by?

But Li Tai is different, if he falls, not only will he die, but his people will die, and even these people who follow him will die.

Although the emperor said that he would take the lives of his people, who would take it seriously

At that time, even if the emperor didn't want to kill, their followers would not hesitate to attack.

As a politician, you must know that if you don't cut the grass and not remove the roots, the spring breeze will blow and grow. Above the officialdom, they will not spare the lives of their enemies!

The emperor is different, as long as the emperor is alive, then there are infinite possibilities, if a person dies, there is nothing, if a person is dead, how can he talk about a comeback?

Following the emperor, if he fails, the emperor is still young, who knows if the emperor will one day regain power, and then Li Tai will be boiled to death.

At that time, they may be able to earn the name of loyal ministers and be admired by future generations.

But if you fail to follow Li Tai, it doesn't matter if you die, you will be called a chaotic minister and a thief, and you will be spurned by all generations!

At this moment, except for some iron loyalists who followed Li Tai, the rest of the people were a little shaken, and some neutral people also tilted the balance in favor of the emperor.

Li Tai's face was solemn, and there seemed to be some panic on his face, and he said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely not be as bad as Lu Chunqiu." Please Your Majesty believe in the ministers, believe in the Li family.

The ancestor of the minister, Li Yan, followed the first emperor to fight the world, and finally assisted the first emperor to unify Kyushu, achieving the name of the first emperor through the ages.

Every inch of land in Great Qin is sprinkled with the blood of the Li family, and the ministers, and even the Li family, must all pay their strength for His Majesty and for Great Qin.

When the minister passes away one day, the minister promises that there will definitely be people from the Li family who will enter the court, work hard for Your Majesty, for Great Qin, and protect my Great Qin's society!"

The hearts of the people above the court are floating again, Li Tai is really bold, this sentence is undoubtedly telling those who are shaken, I promise, even if I am old and dead, there will be people in the Li family who will enter the court to fight against the emperor.

As for what position it is, does it need to be said?

Three generations are phases, why not four generations?

At that time, as long as the emperor is elevated, let the emperor be a mascot, and above the court, they still have the final say! As long as they work hard to follow the Li family, the people who will call the wind and rain in the court in the future will not be them?

I have to say that Li Tai still has some use in saying these words, and the hearts of the people who were originally shaking have also stabilized a little at this moment.

Gongsun Tinglei was a little anxious, and the good situation that the emperor had just created was once again resolved by Li Tai.

Wu Li still kept his face expressionless, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

The cold light in Yingkong's eyes flashed away, and he greeted him with a smile on his face, as if he didn't hear Li Tai's words, and looked at Li Tai and said: "The prime minister has made great contributions to the country, and I believe that the empire will definitely be more prosperous with the assistance of the prime minister and the Li family!"

Li Tai bowed down and said, "I don't dare to be ashamed! If it weren't for Your Majesty's Shengming, how could the empire be even stronger." ”

Then Li Tai looked up at Ying Kongli and said, "Your Majesty, what the ministers are saying, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks about the matter of your Majesty's concubine?"

The topic was brought back again, and this time Ying Kongli did not evade it, and said with a smile: "This matter is negligent, I don't know what your ministers think?"

I saw an official behind Li Tai step out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the prime minister said is extremely true, the giant of the empire, if there is no descendant to inherit it, this is the great evil of the empire!"

Therefore, the minister thought that this matter should be put on the agenda as soon as possible, so as to appease the hearts of the subjects of Great Qin!"

As soon as the words fell, another person stepped out, it was Taiwei Gongsun Tinglei!

Gongsun Tinglei first struggled, then made up his mind, and said: "The minister thinks that what the prime minister said is reasonable, although Your Majesty works hard day and night, but Your Majesty's heirs are the foundation of the country!"

If Your Majesty has no queen, the hearts of the people in the world will fluctuate, the clan strife will inevitably appear, and Daqin will be unstable!

Therefore, please think twice!"

As soon as the words fell, Yushi Wu Li also walked out and said: "Your Majesty, what the Taiwei and the Prime Minister said is extremely true, this matter is the fault of Yushitai, and please ask Your Majesty to surrender!"

Then, the Manchu Dynasty both civil and military said: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the three dukes and the nine kings, the unprecedented unity at this moment, all stood on Li Tai's side.

Even if Gongsun Tinglei is on Li Tai's side, without him, as an emperor in the lineage, only when the emperor has an heir, they can stand more firmly.

Although the emperor is still young, the sooner he has an heir, the more he can calm people's hearts, and even tilt the neutral side in their favor.

This is too important for those of their imperial lineage!

Therefore, even if Taiwei Gongsun Tinglei is on Li Tai's side, at least in this regard, he and Li Tai's goals are the same.

And Wu Li is the responsibility, as a person from Yushitai, the emperor has not been able to accept a concubine at the age of twenty-one, the harem is still empty, but Yushitai has no one to advise, this is a dereliction of duty of Yushitai!

If this is to be said, as the leader of the Yushi Terrace, he will definitely be a big crime!

And they didn't open their mouths before because Li Tai's words were too sharp, which had seriously dealt a blow to the emperor's majesty and angered the emperor.

If they spoke at that time, it would inevitably make the emperor guess whether they were already on the same side as Li Tai, and maybe the emperor would spill his anger on them!

Ying Kongli seemed to have expected this situation a long time ago, and said with a smile: "The prime minister is also dedicated to the country, and I naturally will not waste the prime minister's kindness!

Prime Minister Li Tai and the Manchu Dynasty both shouted: "Your Majesty Shengming, the ministers obey the order!"

Ying Kongli smiled again: "I don't know if you Aiqing still has something to play?"

The court suddenly became the same as the vegetable market, one after another came out to play, all the words were trivial, and then some people came out to object, and the court shouted and quarreled.

Ying Kong on the dragon chair glared at him, his face was angry, and said: "Enough, what has become of the court, these things will be discussed later!"

After speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and the ministers in the audience looked panicked and shouted: "The ministers are guilty!"

Zhao Ling also hurriedly said: "Retreat!" and then hurriedly chased in the direction of Ying Kongli.

The ministers in the audience said again: "The ministers send your majesty!"

The early dynasty ended in such a coault, and a group of ministers left the hall in a hurry!

Gongsun Tinglei glanced at the hall behind him when he left, but he hadn't seen such a scene for a few days.

It seems to be ...... again Back to normal?

Thinking about it, Gongsun Tinglei shook his head with a wry smile again, it is impossible not to go back, the emperor and Li Tai must lose before they can return to normal.

Otherwise, the daily court in the future will be like today, filled with gunsmoke, and the emperor's anger is unspeakable!

Wu Li glanced at Zhou Qi and didn't say anything, it wasn't without harvest today, at least he knew that what Zhou Qi saw yesterday was the emperor!

The verbal confrontation between the emperor and Li Tai also let him know, as everyone can see, the battle between the emperor and the prime minister Li Tai has gradually entered a white heat, and the two must only survive on one side.

And he must make the choice that is in his best interest, otherwise, he and those who follow him will die!

Li Tai said goodbye to the ministers as usual and turned to leave, but his heart was difficult to calm down for a long time, today's confrontation with the emperor has made him understand that unless he can give up his current power, give up the glory of the Li family for three generations.

Otherwise, the emperor will win, and the former Lu Chunqiu will be his example!

This is the emperor's warning to him!

But can he give up?

It's impossible!

The Li family has been operating for three generations, and it has taken thousands of years to be able to follow the decree of the court, and the glory of the Li family for thousands of years must not decline in their own hands!

Li Tai secretly clenched his fist in his sleeve, he could only win, he couldn't lose, even if the emperor's surname won, but he believed that he would definitely win.

This is the self-confidence that the Li family has brought to Li Tai after a hundred years of operation, even if it is the emperor, the Li family is not afraid!

......

It is not clear what is going on in the court, but at this time he is coming to the bazaar of the imperial capital, dressed in civilian clothes, shaking a wooden fan gently, but also like a white-faced scholar.

There were people coming and going in the bazaar, and the crowd was like a tide, and Ying Kongchen had to secretly use spiritual power to quietly line up the people around him.

Win Kongchen walked on this bustling bazaar, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart, it really deserves to be the capital of the Great Qin Emperor, and it is not a little stronger than the bazaar in Liaozhou.

At a glance, there were still powerhouses of the Divine Soul Realm setting up stalls, and the guards who maintained order in the bazaar were all powerhouses of the Divine Soul Realm!

What a big deal!

The Divine Soul Realm can already travel in the sky, and it is placed in some big clans, and it is also a guest who rushes to ask for it!

Brother Huang is really generous!

Win Kongchen couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly, Ying Kongchen's eyes froze, and a girl and a maid-like person in front of him were walking in the market, looking east and west, and they didn't know what they were looking at.

Suddenly, the girl seemed to have a feeling, and set her eyes on Ying Kongchen, who hurriedly turned her head and grabbed a small object casually, looking very serious.

The girl looked puzzled and muttered, "Did I feel wrong?"

The maid beside her looked vigilant and said, "Miss, what's wrong?"

The girl shook her head and wondered, "It should be that I felt wrong, I felt someone watching me just now." ”

The maid laughed and said, "Miss is so beautiful, I don't know how many men in this market are staring at you." ”

The girl's face turned red and she said angrily: "Luqin, you still say, see if I don't kill you!"

After Ying Kongchen felt the girl's gaze leave him, he looked over again, but this time it was not too obvious, just a glance at his eyes.

Ying Kongchen couldn't help but sigh a little, Gongsun Zhilan's perception ability is really strong! She is a big realm higher than her and can be perceived, it's really terrifying!

Yes, that girl is the daughter of Gongsun Tinglei, the fiancée of Ying Kongchen - Gongsun Zhilan!

The reason why Ying Kongchen knew Gongsun Zhilan was because his imperial brother Ying Kongli showed him the portrait of Gongsun Zhilan, so he could recognize it at a glance.

Ying Kongchen secretly looked at Gongsun Zhilan, who was frolicking with the maid, and his heart was in a trance, and he couldn't be more than this with a smile!

Not only him, but even many people in the bazaar couldn't help but look at Gongsun Zhilan and the maid, which made Ying Kongchen feel a little proud in his heart, this is my wife, eh...... Although unmarried.

But soon the pride of winning Kongchen dissipated, but he was a little annoyed, this is my wife, what do you see?

Is it jealousy?

Definitely not, anyway, Win Kongchen thinks so in his heart at the moment.

For some reason, Ying Kongchen was still a little shy at first, and he didn't dare to meet Gongsun Zhilan, but at this moment, he was not afraid, and he seemed to be enthusiastic.

Ying Kongchen walked out quickly, took Gongsun Zhilan's hand, used his spiritual power to exclude the people around him, and left the market with Gongsun Zhilan and the maid!

Of course, the situation here has also attracted the attention of the guards, after all, it is not possible to use spiritual power on a large scale in the bazaar, and the spiritual power of the Divine Soul Realm has almost been used by Win Kongchen just now!

Gongsun Zhilan and the maid looked panicked, but they were closed by Ying Kongchen with spiritual power and couldn't speak.

The guards came over and were about to say something, when Ying Kongchen threw out a golden token, and the captain of the guard immediately respectfully returned the token and asked the guards to dismiss the crowd who were watching!

That token is the token that the emperor won the empty leave to him, and seeing the card is like seeing the emperor!

And Gongsun Zhilan was even more flustered, what is the identity of this person, how does the guard not care, is it the son of a gentleman?

Gongsun Zhilan was about to cry, and wanted to grab the hand of the maid Luqin, but found that Luqin had disappeared for some time.

Gongsun Zhilan was secretly anxious in her heart, what about the protectors sent by her family, why didn't she come out to save herself?
