Chapter 195 Thunder Means (Released 3/5)
When reinforcements arrived, the cavalry was unsheathed, and the infantry bent their bows and arrows, and they looked like they would really attack these people if the petitioners did not stop immediately!
Have these scholars ever seen such a scene? They were surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers, or the elite soldiers who had just returned from the Turkic battlefield... Li Chengqian was so scared that he trembled. How could these people be so good?
So, one counts one. Before, I was in a state of anger and was about to break into the palace to see His Majesty Li Er's scholars immediately calmed down and stood there obediently as he said, not daring to move!
After the scholars calmed down, the sound of "squeaking" opening of the Suzaku Gate, which was originally closed, came from the sound of "squeaking" opening. Everyone's attention was attracted again and turned their heads to look in the Suzaku Gate.
As the city gate slowly opened, a man riding a pure black horse and wearing bright yellow dragon pattern walked out!
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
The soldiers guarding the palace gate and the cavalry outside the surroundings salute His Majesty Li Er as soon as possible!
After the scholars were stunned, they all hurriedly bowed and bowed.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
His Majesty Li Er let the horse slowly walk less than ten feet away from the scholars before stopping. His eyes were cold and glanced at the crowd, which made the scholars in the front row lower their heads!
"Most of you are scholars. Should you understand what crime should you be punished when you hit the Forbidden Palace?" His Majesty Li Er said in a calm voice, but the voice was very loud, and even the scholars behind the crowd could hear him clearly.
"I could have directly ordered the person who did not listen to the persuasion to be killed on the spot, but... do you know why I didn't give the order?" His Majesty Li Er looked at the scholars in the front row and asked seriously, but he continued without waiting for the scholars to answer, "Because my son, my crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, the prince you asked me to dismiss me once told me that the swords and guns of our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are used to protect the people of the Tang Dynasty, and are not used to deal with the people of the Tang Dynasty, and they cannot be used to deal with the people of the Tang Dynasty!"
"I thought my Tang Dynasty was the most wisest. Those who knew the world were those scholars, but... you really disappointed me! As the crown prince, although his behavior was flawed, everything he did was great for the country and the people, and for the Tang Dynasty! Ordinary people even knew that the crown prince was kind, kind, respectful and filial, why were you not even as good as ordinary people? Just rumors made you do such a ruthless thing to attack the Forbidden Palace?"
His Majesty Li Er spoke slowly, spoke clearly, and said something with a clear voice. After asking this question, he looked at the scholars in front of him and shook his head slightly.
He didn't say anything to these scholars anymore, waved his hands and ordered, "Come on, find those people..."
"yes!"
Many palace guards walked out of the Zhuque Gate and rushed into the crowd, asking the names of the scholars one by one, and checking their appearance in detail. After about a cup of tea, more than a hundred scholars were captured by the guards!
Of course, these people were struggling, crying and shouting for wrongful accusations, arresting the wrong person, or questioning why they wanted to arrest him, but the guards ignored them at all and took them directly to His Holiness Li Er.
"Your Majesty, according to the list, everyone is here!"
His Majesty Li Er nodded slightly, then looked at the hundreds of people in front of him and said, "You ask me why I want to arrest you? You should know this question better than me, right?"
After His Majesty Li Er asked, someone asked: "Your Majesty, I just want to give advice to Your Majesty, and I have no exaggeration. I don't understand why Your Majesty wants to arrest me?"
His Majesty Li Er glanced at him and said, "If I remember correctly, you should be an official of the Ministry of Revenue, right?"
"Yes, I am the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue..." The man actually showed a hint of joy on his face, and he was secretly happy that His Majesty Li Er actually recognized him.
Unfortunately, his secret joy did not last long, and before he finished speaking, His Majesty Li Er spoke again: "Haha... execute it on the spot, no one will be left!"
"What?"
"His Majesty……"
"Why?"
"Why your Majesty?"
"His Majesty……"
These hundred people looked at His Majesty Li Er in shock and wanted to defend themselves. As a result, the guards would not hesitate to His Majesty Li Er's orders, so... In an instant, more than one hundred heads fell to the ground, and the blood instantly dyed the ground red, and even sprayed directly on the men in the front row and their faces!
Everyone was stunned, especially the scholars who witnessed the arrested people falling to the ground with their own eyes. Their mouths were wide open, their eyes were slightly bulging, and they were frightened by the scene in front of them...or they were stunned by His Majesty Li Er's unexpected actions!
His Majesty Li Er himself remained calm, but he just glanced lightly, and said without hesitation, "Take the fallen house to house!" Then he glanced at the scholars and said, "Don't you want to give me advice in person and ask me to dismiss the crown prince?"
Faced with the threat of death, the scholars who had dared to even attack the Forbidden Palace immediately became timid!
"Your Majesty, I am confused for a moment, so I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness!"
"Your Majesty, please spare me..."
His Majesty Li Er had just a light question, so he made everyone kneel on the ground, trembling all over his body and beg for mercy!
"Hmph! The death of Duke Xinchang is exactly the same as what the imperial edict says, and has no connection with the prince. It is entirely his own fault... For his own selfishness, he ignored the facts, was questioned by the prince, and finally vomited blood and died... I don't want to hear any rumors that Duke Xinchang was pissed to death by the prince. Do you understand?" His Majesty Li Er's eyes were on the men in the crowd for a moment. After saying these words, the people trembled even more violently.
After saying this, His Majesty Li Er turned his horse's head and turned back to the palace. All the soldiers on the scene, including the cavalry and infantry who came later, also left one after another.
The scholars looked at each other, looking at the bright red bloodstains in front of the Zhuque Gate, their hearts couldn't help but tremble, and then slowly left here in silence. Even though the number of people was nearly 10,000, the scene was extremely quiet. Apart from the sound of footsteps, there was almost no sound next to them!
...
The scholars finally dispersed and were directly suppressed by His Majesty Li Er using thunder means. However, people were wondering one question, that is, why His Majesty Li Er directly ordered the arrest and killed people on the spot, without giving those people a chance to argue, and without giving a reasonable explanation to the scholars!
However, the scholars did not know the specific reason for His Majesty Li Er's murder, but some people understood very well that they were those who spread rumors and incite scholars!
Because all the hundred people killed by His Majesty Li Er were arranged by these people, no more or less, and all of them were solved by His Majesty Li Er at one time.
