There was silence again!
No one dared to take a stand.
Yan Qi stared at Tang Hanxiao again.
Tang Hanxiao was startled: "Why are you looking at me?"
Yan Qidao: "I'll ask Tang Shangshu to express his position."
"Me? Why should I express my position? What does it have to do with me?"
"Of course it has something to do with Mr. Tang, you can't escape."
"Yan Qi, what are you talking about? What does it have to do with me?"
Yan Qi took out a resume and opened it to Tang Hanxiao: "I have checked the information about Mr. Tang from the Ministry of Rites. Cao Chunqiu served as the examiner for the first time. Mr. Tang was the number one scholar in the imperial examination, right? Mr. Tang, you are A student of Cao Chunqiu."
"The Eight Wise Kings are going to kill Cao Chunqiu's ten clans. You happen to be one of the thousand and ninety students under Cao Chunqiu. You are going to die too. Congratulations, Mr. Tang, you won the prize."
"Ah I……"
Tang Hanxiao rolled his eyes in fright and fainted.
No matter how strong your psychological quality is, you can't withstand Yan Qi's intimidation.
Nothing so scary.
It can scare people to death.
Yan Qi looked at the Eight Wise Kings with a dark face: "I have in my hand a list of talents admitted by Cao Chunqiu as the examiner for the fifth term. There are 1,090 people in total. These 1,090 people are spread all over Dahua. They are The backbone of the imperial court.”
"The younger ones serve as county magistrates, the older ones serve as prefects, and of course, there are also high-ranking officials like Tang Hanxiao who are honored as ministers of the six departments."
"Eight Sages, since you want to kill the ten members of the Cao Chunqiu clan, please arrest all these people and push them out of the Meridian Gate together to behead them."
day!
The Eight Sage King's eyes widened and locked on Yan Qi like a bell.
There was resentment and embarrassment in his eyes.
What's more, it's helpless.
The Eight Sage King held his breath for a long time, and then said: "These people don't count, they are all... not Cao Chunqiu's real students."
"What the Eight Wise Kings said is wrong."
Yan Qiyan said firmly: "The examiner is the teacher, and the talented people who passed the imperial examination are the examiner's students. This fact is made clear in Dahua's "Etiquette and Laws". There is no doubt about this matter."
He asked Zhao Qing: "Master Zhao is the Minister of Rites and knows the details best. Master Zhao, is there any record in the "Code of Etiquette"?"
Zhao Qing came out: "What Deputy Prime Minister Yan said is true. The "Etiquette and Laws" clearly stipulates the relationship between teachers and students. I can reiterate again that candidates who pass the imperial examination are the disciples of the examiner. Moreover, it has legal significance."
Yan Qi asked the Eight Wise Kings: "The Eight Wise Kings
What else is there to say? "
Damn it!
The Eight Wise Kings burst out with ten thousand swear words in their hearts.
At this moment, he was angry and irritable, with no way forward and no way back.
It’s really hard to move even an inch.
He has been completely locked by Yan Qi's neck.
He wants to kill Xia Ming?
Well.
These one thousand and ninety talented men must all be killed.
This is a big deal.
First, he couldn't kill these talented people.
These people are active in the political arena of Dahua.
If he dares to kill these people, then he will rise up.
When he offends the public, even spittle and stars can drown him.
Second, even if he could do it, it would be impossible to do so.
Because the price paid is far greater than the benefits obtained.
Who would do such a stupid thing?
Braving the disgrace of the world?
just!
Tang Hanxiao woke up.
Yan Qi smiled and leaned over: "Tang Shangshu is awake? You should go home and say goodbye to your family. They will push you out of the Meridian Gate and behead you soon. You have to be mentally prepared."
grass!
Tang Hanxiao just woke up and fainted again from fright.
Yan Qi looked at Tang Hanxiao who had fainted, shook his head and sighed: "Is there any need to push him out of the Meridian Gate and behead him? I'm scared to death."
Tang Hanxiao finally woke up and kowtowed to the Eight Wise Kings frantically: "Don't kill the Ten Clans, please the Eight Wise Kings don't kill the Ten Clans. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I am against killing the Ten Clans. I am particularly opposed to it.”
The Eight Wise Kings were filled with hatred.
A cruel fact lies before us.
It has become impossible to kill Xia Ming using his identity as Cao Chunqiu's student.
Because even Tang Hanxiao has clearly opposed it.
Now, it's time to take a stand.
Otherwise, the congregation will rebel.
The Eighth Sage King was embarrassed for a while, so he had to slap himself in the face: "Vice Minister Yan exaggerated. How could I kill the Ten Tribes? Cao Chunqiu was clearly guilty of killing the Nine Tribes, so what does it have to do with the Ten Tribes? What does it have to do with the students?" "
As soon as these words came out, Tang Hanxiao let out a sigh of relief.
Damn it.
Scared to death!
Tang Hanxiao wears a pair of pants and crotch.
The crotch of my pants is warm.
Only then did he realize that he had been so frightened that he had peed himself just now.
Fortunately, in winter, the robe I wore was thick and the urine was absorbed cleanly.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it mean that he would make a fool of himself in public?
Yan Qi looked particularly relaxed
: "Eight Wise Kings, since Xia Ming is not guilty if he does not kill Cao Chunqiu's ten clans, then... shall the cabinet meeting end here? There is no point in holding it any longer."
"Finish?"
The Eighth Sage King sneered: "Isn't Deputy Yan's thinking too naive?"
Yan Qi smiled and said unconcernedly: "Please give me advice from the Eight Wise Kings."
He really doesn't care.
The Eight Sage King took out his final trump card: "I have evidence to prove that Xia Ming is an accomplice of the Eight Sage King. Therefore, Xia Ming is Cao Chunqiu's accomplice and will inevitably die."
Yan Qi asked: "How to prove it?"
The Eight Sage King gritted his teeth: "The painting that Cao Chunqiu gave to Xia Ming is the evidence. Since Cao Chunqiu was so far away, and when he was dying, he sent a painting to Xia Ming, then this painting is by no means simple."
"Why doesn't Cao Chunqiu paint for others? Why does he paint for Xia Ming? This fully proves that Xia Ming and Cao Chunqiu are the same species. Therefore, Xia Ming must die."
This is the last trump card of the Eight Wise Kings.
Forced by Yan Qi, he had no choice but to talk about this painting.
Yang Ke fanned the flames on the side: "The Eight Wise Kings are right. Xia Ming and Cao Chunqiu are inseparable. That painting is ironclad proof."
Everyone was talking a lot.
"It's over now, Xia Ming is dead."
"With this painting, it is enough to implicate Xia Ming."
"Vice Minister Yan has nothing to do now."
…
The Eighth Sage King looked at Yan Qi very proudly: "What else do you have to say? Are you still defending Xia Ming? Haha, now, if you don't hand over Xia Ming, then I will be rude to you."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "The Eight Wise Kings are absolutely right. The painting that Cao Chunqiu gave to Xia Ming does show that Cao Chunqiu and Xia Ming have a close relationship, but it can also barely prove that the case between Xia Ming and the prince. There’s some connection.”
The Eighth Sage King hummed: "You still know the truth. Since you admit it, hand over Xia Ming immediately, and I will not hold you accountable anymore."
Yan Qi smiled: "Xia Ming can naturally be handed over. He has committed a crime, how can he be forgiven? But..."
He asked the Eight Wise Kings: "The evidence of Xia Ming's crime is the painting that Cao Chunqiu gave to Xia Ming. Where is that painting? Where is it? The Eight Wise Kings must take out the painting first and then convict Xia Ming." ?”
"this……"
The Eight Wise Kings were very impatient: "Everyone has seen that painting, why would you take it out?"
Yan Qi insisted: "That's not possible. To convict someone, there must be evidence. Since there is no human witness, there must be physical evidence. How can we not be rigorous in determining matters of life and death?"
The Eight Wise Kings were really furious.
