Old Censor Dong was slightly shocked and said bravely: "Your Majesty, I am the Censor of Supervision. He is in charge of all officials' affairs and oversees all officials. He really doesn't know anything about the military affairs and has no right to know."
Grass!
Li Yi was so angry that he scolded his mother in his heart. These old guys are just good at talking. No matter what they say, they are right.
He talks nonsense in the court, and there are many things to say. If he were asked to do something real, he would not even be able to let go.
It's really disgusting to pretend to be upright and caring about the country and the people every day.
Li Yi smiled coldly, "Since you are supervising hundreds of officials and military attaches, is it within the scope of your supervision? When the military attaches return from the expedition, are you not clear about this?"
"Even if I come to ask you, you don't know what crime you deserve?"
Li Yi raised his hand and pointed at another censor, "Say!"
The other one plopped and fainted from fright.
Li Yi's eyes narrowed and he said angrily: "I'm here to tell you that the 120,000 people from Lianghe Province were almost completely wiped out. Every family in Lianghe Province held up white banners, every village built new graves, and 100,000 new troops were killed. A total of two people were killed." Eighty-four hundred and thirty-six people, including 82 internal machine supervisors, were lost."
"Including the wounded soldiers of the Great Liang Palace, you can calculate how many families have been ruined!"
"Which of these people is not the backbone of the family? Their lives are not their lives, but your lives are?"
"I should really send you to the battlefield. You know how hard these military attaches are!"
Li Yi's words were like a knife cutting into the hearts of everyone present.
But there were two different expressions. The civil servants all showed fear and trembling with fear, but the military attachés all had tears in their eyes and tears of gratitude.
Especially the old ministers like Huweihou and Lu Xiangsheng were filled with bad anger.
Who knows how much they have suffered?
He fought bloody battles on the battlefield to resist foreign enemies, but when he returned to the court, he was ridiculed and despised by these civil servants.
I thought the matter was over here, and Li Yi just wanted to give these civil servants a beating.
But he didn't expect that Dong Yushi would seek death himself.
He faced Li Yi directly and said proudly: "Your Majesty, I was the number one scholar during the late emperor's time. The losses in this battle were so great. Wang Mukun, the governor of Lianghe, and Cao Fengyang, the governor of the two rivers, should be punished for their unfavorable leadership of the army. They are responsible for today's ministers and others." What does it matter? Our Dafeng Dynasty only respects Confucianism and sacred learning, how can we respect these Qiu Ba people? Isn’t this a joke for future generations!"
"Even if I die, I will still advise Your Majesty. You must not turn things upside down and break your trust in the world!"
"Qiu Ba?" Li Yi stood up suddenly, his face instantly turned livid, and he gritted his teeth angrily.
This old dog is so tired of living that he dares to call these soldiers Qiu Ba. He is really looking for death!
This old man doesn't know that Li Yi is a soldier. Isn't this insulting the emperor of the day, Li Yize, who is Qiu Ba?
"Okay, okay, okay!" Li Yi said several good words in a row.
This frightened the ministers greatly. It didn't matter if His Majesty cursed others, but they were afraid that His Majesty would say the word "good", which was the rhythm of killing people.
Sun Tingzong had a good personal relationship with Dong Yushi and hurriedly went out to plead for mercy.
But Li Yi stared at him fiercely, his eyes extremely cold, "No one is allowed to plead for mercy!"
"Didn't you call my Gale soldiers Qiu Ba? Well, I will let these Qiu Ba send you back to the west!"
"Suoyi!"
Suoyi cupped his fists and said, "I'm here!"
"Please invite Dong Yushi down and kill him with a stick yourself!"
As soon as these words came out, Suoyi was stunned on the spot. He raised his head and looked at Li Yi, but he didn't dare to move, thinking that he heard wrongly.
The ministers felt their hearts sinking and were horrified, especially the civil servants.
Just listen to Li Yi yelling angrily, "Are you deaf? Pull it down and kill it with a stick!"
"No!" Suoyi clasped his fists, grabbed Dong Yushi's neck, and dragged him out like a chicken.
But Dong Yushi still cursed recklessly, "Your Majesty, the late emperor has an edict. The punishment is not as high as the officials, and the courtesy is not as good as the common people. You are going against the late emperor's will. You are extremely unfilial!"
When Li Yi heard this, he became even more angry and scolded directly: "Wait a minute, you say I'm unfilial, then I'll give it a try!"
"Suoyi, in the Jinluan Palace, in front of my ministers, beat this old guy to death with a cane!"
The commander of the Forbidden Army, Lu Hancheng, waved his hand back, and four or five Forbidden Army soldiers armed with wooden sticks rushed in. Without saying a word, they directly pushed Dong Yushi to the ground.
Suoyi personally held a wooden stick and administered the punishment with the rod.
"Bang bang bang!"
A dull sound sounded in the Jinluan Palace.
Dong Yushi, who was lying on the ground and was beaten until he vomited blood, still asked: "Your Majesty, Qiu Bawu has misled the country. You are trying to destroy the Dafeng Dynasty. Take history as a guide, how many dynasties were destroyed at the hands of Qiu Ba, late emperor, Open your eyes and see what your prince is doing..."
"Kill me with a stick, kill me with a stick!" Li Yi was so angry that he almost went crazy.
Dozens of sticks fell, and Dong Yushi was beaten to death in public.
At this time, the entire Jinluan Palace was completely silent.
Li Yi's heart is as solid as stone, and no one can stop him.
He knew firsthand how hard these soldiers worked, sacrificing their lives and blood, leaving their families and careers for what, but for this country. If these soldiers were to feel cold again, would they still be human beings?
If this is the case, what if the emperor doesn't do it?
Li Yi looked at the ministers and said in a cold voice: "I went all the way north and fought countless battles with prairie wolf cubs, but I want to tell you that the battlefield is not a child's play, and fighting is not a child's play. If these soldiers are treated so unfairly again, , who will protect the Gale Dynasty in the future, do you expect the enemy?"
"Today, I will set a rule here. Anyone who dares to humiliate my Gale soldiers will be executed!"
"I obey the decree, long live my emperor!"
But the expressions on the faces of these civil servants were very complicated. They all felt that His Majesty was crazy, acting like a monster, and wanted to destroy the Gale Dynasty.
The land of Sanqin has just been recovered, and the Prince of Daliang has just suppressed the rebellion. Both places are in ruins waiting to be revitalized, and the family members are ready to make trouble at any time.
At this time of internal and external troubles and turmoil, His Majesty suddenly made such a move. Could it be that he thought the Gale Dynasty was not miserable enough? Do you want to continue to struggle?
Dong Yushi was an old minister of the late emperor. He had just been appointed and had great prestige in the court, but he was beaten to death by Li Yi.
If word of this spreads out, many talented people who want to become officials in the court will be deterred by hearing this.
Even many civil servants in the court were completely disappointed and disheartened by Li Yi.
These people saw clearly that although they said they were concerned about the country and the people, they were actually just doing it for their own interests. Now that the emperor had changed his nature and was no longer bewitched by them, they did not dare to say anything.
They are all foxes of thousands of years, let no one talk about Liaozhai.
Who is not afraid of death?
Dong Yushi is an example.
at this time.
Cao Fengyang and other military attachés shouted, "The emperor is a wise man, and I must die to serve the country."
The ministers then shouted, "The Son of Heaven is sage, the Son of Heaven is sage!"
But Li Yi didn't know that the reason why these civil servants could survive for thousands of years was because of their powerful methods!
Since it doesn't work on the bright side, then play it in the dark.
The civil service group once again gathered together and prepared to give Li Yi a blow.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are still too young. Do you think you can completely control the government by promoting just a few people? Can it completely change the status of the military attache?
Still too young!
Since you want to improve your status as a military attache, do you want to give out silver rewards and pensions?
Where does this money come from?
Tobe!
The Minister of Household Affairs is still vacant, so it is not the civil servants below who have the final say.
Don’t you want to recruit more troops?
Who approves it, the Ministry of War?
Who has the final say in the Ministry of War?
Cao Fengyang, but what Qiu Ba can say and do is not dependent on the civil servants below.
Next, who has the final say on weapon development and upgrading?
Ministry of Industry.
The Minister of Industry is Lu Mu, but he is a technical geek. What else can he do besides engage in research and development?
It’s not the civil servants below that have the final say.
These civil servants have countless ways to paralyze the court, and even try to drain the power from the bottom of the cauldron.
In their opinion, Li Yi was still too young. It was simply wishful thinking to think that he could change his status as a military attache.
Emperor Dafeng's ancestor was about to take over the world, and he had countless noble generals under his command. In the end, he did not compromise with the civilian officials.
But these civil servants ignored one thing. Li Yi has never read the books of sages and cannot argue. In his words, "I am stupid when it comes to reasoning, but I like to hit people!"
Soon, the civil servants' counterattack against Li Yi began.
Huwei Marquis Lu Xiangsheng wanted to rebuild the Huwei Army and expand the army by 50,000 people. Li Yi approved it, and Cao Fengyang, Minister of the Ministry of War, approved it, but they were stuck at the Ministry of Household Affairs.
In one sentence, there is no money!
During the disaster relief in the Sanqin region, there was also a civil uprising and rebellion. Li Yi immediately ordered troops to quell the rebellion and food to provide relief. However, when he arrived at the Ministry of Household Affairs, he still said, no money!
Li Yi was really angry now.
He was also preparing to strike a thunderous blow at the noble family. Now it seems that this is simply a wishful thinking. If this continues, even the basic operation of the imperial court will be difficult.
