Because when the Eight Kings visited Shanxi, Lu Yuan, in order to show his loyalty to the Eight Kings, actually served the Eight Kings as his wives and concubines, accompanying them day and night, and never tired of it.
The Eight Kings enjoyed extraordinary treatment.
Therefore, there is really a special relationship between the Eight Kings and Lu Yuan.
Now, hearing that Lu Yuan actually used this matter to remind him, he felt extremely angry.
Normally, the Eight Kings would definitely keep Lu Yuan.
After all, Shanxi is a province with vast resources.
Once lost, it is equivalent to losing a finger.
It is better to hurt ten fingers than to keep one finger.
But this time, that time.
In order for Yan Qi to work with him to persuade the emperor to marry Princess Yunyue, he had no choice but to reluctantly part ways with her.
Originally, the Eight Kings were extremely confused.
However, hearing that Lu Yuan was threatening, the Eighth Prince became furious and his eyes turned red.
He kicked Lu Yuan's hand away and said dumbly: "What a good Lu Yuan, whom I trust so much, yet he behaves recklessly in Shanxi, deceives superiors and deceives, and becomes the local emperor of Shanxi... I really let down this king. Right cultivation, this heinous scum, the worm of the court, the remnant of the country, has the nerve to plead with me, and I wish I could kill myself."
The wind direction changes.
Everyone was extremely shocked.
Especially the governors of the thirteen provinces were stunned.
"It's bad, the Eight Kings actually want to punish Lu Yuan."
"That's not right. Lu Yuan is the Eighth King's dog. The Eighth King beats his own dog, so hard?"
"Lu Yuan is going to be doomed this time. I thought the Eighth Kings would protect him, but I didn't expect that the Eighth Kings would be the first to attack him."
…
After Lu Yuan heard what the Eight Kings said, the sky fell.
There was a ruckus.
"Eight Kings, why are you adding insult to injury on me? You want to save me? I am a human being. No, I... I am a dog. Why do you want to kill me? I am a good and obedient dog. Eight Kings, please think twice." , you must think twice."
Yan Qi stood aside and said, "Eight Kings should really think twice about killing their own dogs. It's too cruel, hehehehe."
The Eight Kings were eager to draw a clear line with Lu Yuan, and spoke impassionedly and righteously: "Lu Yuan, don't get close to this king. I recommend him as governor of Shanxi because of his ability, not because of any special relationship."
"Besides, you are an official of the imperial court and a local official. How come you have become my king's dog? If you dare to speak nonsense again, you will despise the court and slander me. I will punish you for all the crimes."
Lu Yuan was so frightened that he was out of his wits.
Plop!
He fell
He squatted with his big buttocks and sat weakly on the main hall, his mind buzzing: "It's over, it's all over."
Yan Qi kicked Lu Yuan's waist: "We were very arrogant in the Baohe Hall just now, weren't we? You kept saying that the Eighth King was the backstage and the Eighth King's dog. What's going on now? This dog is so good No status.”
Lu Yuan was furious, pointed at the Eighth Prince's nose, and shouted angrily: "What the Eighth Prince is, he's just a bastard. He slept with my wife, and even eats her and refuses to help me. I'll fight her."
When the officials heard this, they were shocked.
Yan Qi chuckled: "Oh, here's some tidbits. It turns out that the Eight Kings are good at this. It's interesting."
The Eighth Prince blushed and said, "It's nonsense, it's full of nonsense. When has this king ever done such a thing? Lu Yuan actually slandered me in court. Someone came and took Lu Yuan down to the court and tortured him severely."
"yes!"
Some guards took off Lu Yuan's official uniform and took him down in silence.
Lu Yuan yelled: "The Eighth King is just a bastard, a treacherous and evil person, ruthless and ruthless... he eats people without spitting out their bones."
Lu Yuan was so frustrated.
The governors looked at me, and I looked with uneasiness in my heart.
They thought that the Eight Kings were very powerful.
Follow the Eight Kings and drink spicy food.
But I didn't expect that everything in front of me was counterproductive.
Lu Yuan is a living example.
When something went wrong, the Eighth Prince not only refused to protect him, but also added insult to injury and stepped on him severely.
Yan Qi saw that the eyes of all the governors were full of sadness, and he knew that his goal had been achieved a lot.
However, we need to give them a long memory.
Yan Qi continued the memorial: "Tang Jide, the governor of Henan, and Shan Yuan, the governor of Hebei, committed adultery and committed corruption and perverted the law. The data are detailed and the crimes are conclusive. Please investigate clearly."
Eunuch Deping handed over the accounts to the emperor.
The old emperor's face was extremely gloomy.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
"Your Majesty, spare your life!"
Tang Jide and Shan Yuan knew that they could not escape the king's law, so they hurriedly knelt in front of the palace and confessed their crimes honestly.
They had already seen Lu Yuan's fate just now.
Since the Eight Kings had made trouble for Lu Yuan, they would definitely be treated the same way.
What's more, they haven't given their wives to the Eight Kings to sleep with.
Lu Yuan went through all the troubles, but apart from aggravating the crime, what other benefits could there be?
At this moment, they finally saw how powerful Yan Qi was.
Tang Jide and Shan Yuan were smart people and confessed directly.
old
The emperor glared at Tang Jide and Shan Yuan, his face turned black as charcoal: "Detain them and interrogate them strictly."
"yes!"
The guards took Tang Jide and Shan Yuan down.
The Eight Kings watched helplessly as Tang Jide and Shan Yuan were escorted away, without daring to let out a single fart.
The governors were even more horrified.
Today, they finally saw Yan Qi's status and strength.
This is not the case of the Eight Kings, but it is clearly the case of Yan Qi.
What a great official power.
The little Jiujiu in their hearts is constantly scheming.
They didn't know if Yan Qi still had the little tail they committed crimes in.
Also, whether the Eight Kings are reliable or not.
This is what Yan Qi wants.
Kill one to serve as a warning to hundreds.
The old emperor said: "Does the great country and the country have to rely on me alone? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The country and the country depend on me and him."
"Especially you, these governors, are the parents and officials of the people. We hold great power and hold the heaven and earth in our hands. If we are not honest, will there be a future for Dahua? Will the people have a future?"
"Listen to your Majesty's teachings!"
The governors knelt on the ground, not daring to look at the emperor.
"Cough cough cough..."
The old emperor coughed several times: "After retiring from the imperial court, we must learn from Lord Yan. We should follow Lord Yan as an example and contribute to the great Chinese nation."
"yes!"
All the governors agreed in unison.
"Retreat!"
The old emperor could not hold on any longer and retired to rest.
The Eight Kings were threatened by Yan Qi and had no choice but to give up Lu Yuan, Tang Jide, and Shan Yuan.
However, his cold-blooded actions just now could easily make these governors alienate from him.
At this moment, they are in desperate need of comfort.
The Eight Kings regained their smiles and said to the governors: "Later, you will all go to my palace, and I will teach you."
"yes!"
The governors hurriedly agreed.
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "My Lord Governors, a cabinet meeting will be held later and everyone will participate. I want to think about the future with all the Governors. I wonder if you are willing to cooperate?"
"ah?"
The governors looked at the Eighth Prince and then at Yan Qi, and were suddenly confused.
The eight kings will preach and teach them.
Yan Qi is going to hold a cabinet meeting.
But there is only one body. Should I go to the Eighth Prince's Mansion and listen to the Eighth Prince's teachings, or should I go to the cabinet and learn from Yan Qi?
Too confusing.
