Chapter 200 Yi Chongzhu (3/5)
From beginning to end, His Majesty Li Er had a calm face and quietly watched the court officials indignantly rebuked Jubaolou for selling books, without expressing any opinions.
It was not until everyone finished speaking and the court was completely quiet that he said lightly: "You have finished speaking? Then I will say a few words!"
His Majesty Li Er stood up from the chair, walked to the dragon desk, held his hands behind his back, looked at the many officials standing in the middle of the court, and said, "I think what you all love say is very reasonable. The articles of sages are priceless treasures left by our ancestors to our descendants. How can money be used to measure?"
His Majesty Li Er nodded beyond everyone's expectations and agreed with the advice of the ministers, which made the officials of the aristocratic families who were all ready to "work a big battle" suddenly feel a little confused.
They even had a sudden idea... Is His Majesty Li Er ready to compromise? Or is the prince already "falling out of favor"?
But His Majesty Li Er's next words made them dispel this idea...
"But... the articles of sages are priceless, but the paper, ink and other articles of sages are valuable. Do you even understand this principle? Repeatedly and repeatedly advise me to depose the prince, what are your intentions?"
His Majesty Li Er's sharp eyes swept over the ministers in the court, making them bow their heads, and no one dared to look at them!
But he was thinking in his heart - Sure enough, His Majesty Li Er did not have the intention to dismiss the prince at all, and was even very angry at their repeated advice to dismiss the prince... Didn't he see His Majesty Li Er's tone full of depression anger when he spoke just now?
"Your Majesty, it's not that I am intentionally angering Your Majesty. However, the prince acts recklessly, regards etiquette and law as nothing, and ignores the face of the ancestors. It is really against the demeanor of the crown prince. If he is not punished severely... Will he do something even more serious in the future? I am also for Your Majesty, for the sake of my Tang Dynasty, and for the sake of the country, please give your Majesty a clear guide!"
"Thinking about me? Thinking about the country of the Tang Dynasty? It's very good! Why did you only see the prince's words and deeds wrong, but never see his contribution to the country of the Tang Dynasty?" His Majesty Li Er asked angrily, and without waiting for the ministers to answer, he continued, "No matter what purpose and thought you are for, if you dare to talk about the easy-to-stopper again... the people in front of the Zhuque Gate are your examples!"
"hiss……"
His Majesty Li Er's words made all the civil and military officials take a breath, including Changsun Wuji and others who had never spoken aside. Although they knew that His Majesty Li Er valued the prince very much and favored the prince very much, they did not expect that the prince was so important in His Majesty Li Er's heart!
You should know that His Majesty Li Er has never warned all the ministers in the court with such blunt words today. Even if Wei Zheng, who made His Majesty Li Er angry, was just complaining to Empress Changsun in private!
The ministers also fully understood that His Majesty Li Er was really angry, and they were angry that they always talked about the prince!
Scandaling at the silent civil and military officials in the court, His Majesty Li Er snorted coldly, then turned around and prepared to leave the court directly.
But unexpectedly, someone spoke out at this moment!
"Your Majesty, I have this report!"
In an instant, everyone's eyes focused on this person!
"Huh? What's the matter?" His Majesty Li Er turned his head and frowned at the official who spoke.
"I want to impeach Your Majesty's cruelty and incompetent killing innocent people!"
"What did you say?" His Majesty Li Er was already angry enough, but when he heard the minister's words, he immediately turned around and glared at him.
The latter looked directly at His Majesty Li Er without fear, and said in a strong voice: "I want to impeach Your Majesty's cruelty and incompetent killing innocent people!"
"Tell me clearly!" His Majesty Li Er held back the murderous intent in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"Although students from the Imperial College, the Imperial College and other colleges sit quietly and petition, they are suspected of forcing the Forbidden Palace, they are understandable. However, Your Majesty will kill hundreds of students in public without asking the reason. Isn't this what the wise king does? Your Majesty..."
This official was also very eloquent and said a lot, but the meaning was very simple. That was that His Majesty Li Er killed more than 100 students for no reason, and after the killing, he did not explain why he killed them. It was really contrary to the way of a wise ruler and the behavior of a wise ruler!
Everyone looked at the official in shock, especially those related to the aristocratic family, and looked at each other one by one, and some even started to communicate in a low voice...
"Whose people?"
"I don't know!"
"It wasn't your arrangement?"
"We are not stupid!"
The person involved seemed very proud of his courage to be arrogant and straightforward. His head was raised high and his body stood up straight. His eyes were glancing at other officials in the court, wanting to see their shocked, admirable and admirable eyes!
But……
He was a little depressed to find that everyone was shocked when they saw him, but they had no admiration or admiration, only a strong... contempt, and even many people looked like they were laughing, and... why did they all look like they were looking at fools?
He was very puzzled, why do these people behave like this?
Before he could think clearly, His Majesty Li Er spoke, "What's your name?"
"Report to Your Majesty, I am not good at rushing to the zodiac!"
"Hmm?" Hearing the other party's answer, His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment and said with some uncertainty, "You said you called a stupid pig?"
"Yes, your majesty!"
His Majesty Li Er's face was originally angry and suddenly a little smile appeared on his face. The anger in his heart also decreased a lot in an instant. He continued to ask: "Where is your position now?"
His Majesty Li Er's reaction made Yi Chongzhu very excited. His eyes looked at His Majesty Li Er's cheeks looked a little rosy because of his excitement... He thought that His Majesty Li Er knew him so much because his blunt advice was recognized by His Majesty Li Er, and he was about to develop!
Therefore, the voice trembled and replied: "Report to Your Majesty, I am the current position as a doctor in the Ministry of Rites..."
"Well, it's very good!" His Majesty Li Er nodded and turned his eyes to Li Daozong, Minister of Rites, "You have a lot of talents in the Ministry of Rites!"
His Majesty Li Er's words made Yi Chongzhu even more excited, and even felt a little uncontrollable, and his body trembled slightly!
As his immediate boss, Li Daozong, who was named by His Majesty Li Er, lowered his head with embarrassment and shame on his face!
Just as Yi Chongzhu looked at His Majesty Li Er expectantly and waited for him to promote himself, His Majesty Li Er actually turned around and left...
Yi Chongzhu was stunned and stared at His Majesty Li Er's back as he left. He couldn't understand why he praised him as a talent but did not give any reward to him? Could it be that he was going to issue an order to reward him after the court was dispersed?
Yes, it must be so!
