"Your Majesty, don't bully others too much!" Ning Wen finally couldn't bear it at this moment, raised his eyes, gritted his teeth, and glared at him angrily.
Li Yi also stopped smiling and said sternly: "So what if I bully you?"
"The criminal commander Wei Chu is not dead yet. He is a very good tainting witness."
Upon hearing this, the anger in Ning Wen's heart was instantly suppressed by panic. His whole body froze and he even stopped breathing.
Ning Wen was finally scared, but he could only bite the bullet.
But he knew that this blow would not only end his reputation as a scholar, but also his career and career.
Scholars from the Dafeng Dynasty have always looked down upon warriors and believed that killing people was done by ignorant warriors and was very shameful.
When he walked to the execution platform, a fishy smell assaulted his nostrils, and his stomach suddenly started to churn.
Although he was the Minister of the Ministry of War, he was a civil servant. He had never seen such a scene before. Hundreds of human heads were placed in front of him, and the soil under his feet was soaked with blood. Thinking about this scene, his scalp felt numb.
Resisting the feeling of vomiting, he still raised the knife, but when he saw the person being chopped clearly, he could no longer hold back.
The person who was hacked turned out to be someone from his military department.
He is one of his close subordinates.
"vomit!"
He was so frightened that he vomited on the spot and was so embarrassed and humiliated.
The people around him couldn't help laughing, laughing at his incompetence.
Li Yi had a sneer on his face, and other close ministers, Cao Qingyan, Lu Hancheng and others also had sarcasm on their faces, all waiting to see the show.
Lu Hancheng mocked and sarcastically said, "Master Ning, be careful where you step, don't accidentally hit yourself again, hahaha..."
Hearing the taunt, Xiang Guotian, the Minister of Personnel, Wei Jun, the Minister of Rites, and Li Cun, the Minister of Works, all glared angrily, but in response, Lu Hancheng ignored them.
This makes their lungs explode!
They all gritted their teeth and swore secretly that today's shame would be repaid a hundred times!
Today is also the time when Li Yi completely breaks up with these sycophants. The monarch and his ministers are already on the same level, fighting to the death.
"Puff puff!"
The butchers on the left and right had already swung their swords down, but Ning Wen was still unable to do so.
Do I really want to kill someone with my own hands?
My wings as a scholar for half my life were completely destroyed today!
But if he doesn't chop him, how can the little emperor spare himself? He doesn't know what bad move he is holding back, and the people around him might stab him in the backbone?
"Little emperor, you wait for me. If I don't avenge this, I would rather be a human being!"
In the end, Ning Wen raised the knife and dropped it hard. Unfortunately, his strength was too weak and the knife edge cut into the criminal's neck bone. He could neither cut nor pull it out. It was a dilemma.
But the blood spurted out like a fountain, and it splashed all over him, making him very embarrassed.
Whether it was fear or anger, his foot suddenly slipped and he was immediately thrown down, his whole body soaked in blood.
This scene immediately caused Li Yi and his close ministers to laugh, and the people around him fell forward and backward with laughter.
Listening to the harsh ridicule, Ning Wen's teeth almost broke.
At the very back of the crowd, two women wearing veils looked forward eagerly, but could not see clearly through the crowd. They sighed helplessly, "Forget it, we will meet each other if we are destined, let's go."
"Miss, where are you going?"
"Hua Chuan, that will be our new home from now on."
"Promise, I will obey you."
The two figures gradually disappeared at the intersection of the street.
Then the beheading came to an end.
Li Yi arranged for internal surveillance experts to start a series of inspections on some brothels and docks in the capital. As expected, these inconspicuous places have a lot of knowledge. All kinds of contraband are emerging in an endless stream. The harvest is full, and it also makes those who hide in the dark People were even more frightened.
Back in the palace, Li Yi listened to Cao Qingyan's report, but his face became even more ugly. It was really embarrassing that his own rule was so corrupt.
"Your Majesty, during this rigorous investigation, a total of 8 million taels of silver and 100,000 taels of gold were seized. Eighty-one shops, piers, and countless fields were seized, which is enough to solve the current dilemma."
Cao Qingyan said excitedly: "Your Majesty is wise and wise. This old slave admires you greatly."
Li Yi nodded, "Send people quickly to distribute money and food to various states and counties. Make sure there is no trouble."
Then, he sighed: "Although Longmen has suffered heavy losses this time, it is only the tip of the iceberg. This matter is far from being as simple as we seem. I am afraid that after this incident, the people of Longmen will be more careful, and we will no longer be in trouble." To get where we are today.”
Cao Qingyan nodded, "Your Majesty is wise, I have arranged for Qinglong to personally lead the team and conduct a secret investigation."
"Well done." Li Yi praised him without hesitation and said, "I will let Ning Wen know that Wei Chu is still alive. They will not sit still and wait for death."
Cao Qingyan was puzzled, "With just a criminal commander, how can they bear it?"
"Definitely!" Li Yi was confident, "They will never allow anyone who knows the inside story to live. All we have to do is wait for the fish to take the bait."
Cao Qingyan's eyes turned cold and he said angrily: "Your Majesty, my old slave has arranged internal surveillance in Dali Temple and Shuntian Mansion Prison, and there are four major commanders sitting on guard. I don't believe they dare to break into the prison and kill people." Silence!"
snort!
If he really thinks that his internal control unit is not a show-off and dares to kill people under his nose, he, the boss of the internal control unit, will have no shame!
Li Yi smiled and shook his head, "That's not the case, but they must have other ways."
"What can be done?" Cao Qingyan sneered.
Li Yi said calmly: "Intimidation!"
"Wei Chu is not a bachelor, he has a family."
Cao Qingyan slapped his head and said angrily: "Oh, why did I ignore this?"
"I sent Lu Hancheng and secretly arranged for Wei Chu's family to be resettled."
"Your Majesty is wise, but I am not as good as this old slave."
Li Yi waved his hand, he was not interested in these flattery, and then said helplessly: "Sun Tingzong went to Dongshan to quell the rebellion. Although Sun Lao's students occupied some positions in the court, there were still not enough manpower. The center of power at the key position was still there. In the hands of those damn Ning Wen people."
Cao Qingyan smiled bitterly and told him to commit murder and arson. This was really his weakness.
There's no way around it. My ex has gone too far and his rights in the court have been completely taken away. Now I want to take it back, which is easier said than done. If I'm not careful, I'll be doomed.
Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies, which must be cooked over a slow fire. If the food is cooked over a high fire, it will easily burn the pot.
Cao Qingyan said unintentionally, "It would be great if the imperial examination could be held."
This sentence undoubtedly awakened Li Yi, "Well said, Cao Aiqing, you have really done me a great service."
"Why didn't I think of it? It's better to hold imperial examinations and martial arts examinations. That way, there's no need to worry about having no one available!"
Just when Li Yi's face was full of excitement, Cao Qingyan suddenly said something that made him feel cold. "Your Majesty, the imperial examination is not that simple. I remember that the late emperor also used this trick to dismantle the control of the court by powerful people from aristocratic families." The current situation of the country, who would have expected that most of the people selected are their informants. As a result, not only did they not disintegrate the powerful, but it made them stronger, so that now, they have reached the point where they cannot be shaken. "
Li Yi nodded, "That makes sense. The imperial examination is indeed a good idea, but it is a pity that it is not suitable for the current situation."
"What should I do?"
Even he couldn't help but sigh.
Being an emperor is too difficult. It doesn’t work either this way or that way. What should I do?
Every step is like walking on thin ice, if you make one mistake, you will be doomed!
Frustrated!
It’s so frustrating!
That time traveler was just like me, living such a miserable life.
The key point is that the predecessor of this body dug a big hole for himself and left a mess, but he ran away instead. Even if he ran away, he couldn't even fill the big hole.
How is a dignified emperor different from a rat crossing the street?
Look at yourself, it’s really uncomfortable to think that even Wei Chu, a person with no rank or rank, has to work hard to figure out how to fight.
Even if you want to hold an imperial examination and recruit some people, you can't do it!
Just when he had a sad look on his face and couldn't figure out how to solve the predicament at hand, and gathered a group of loyal ministers, a beautiful figure walked in from the outside, with light steps and a charming fragrance.
"Your Majesty, I have an idea, I wonder if it works?"
