Amnesty for the whole world is a tactic often used by emperors.
The new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world to show his generosity and benevolence.
The emperor was ill for a long time and offered a general amnesty to the whole world in order to pray for himself.
When the country is in ruins, the purpose of amnesty is for the stability of the world.
All in all, amnesty to the world is a card.
Equivalent to Wang Zha.
Very useful.
Yan Qi proposed at this moment to grant amnesty to the whole world.
Just the right time.
Qi Ying, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, immediately expressed his position: "The War King's proposal is very good. I will implement it immediately and provide amnesty for March."
Duan Yuqing of Dali Temple also immediately expressed his position: "Extraordinary means should be used at extraordinary times. Starting today, I will also grant amnesty to March."
Inspector Yi Guinong also made the strongest statement: "Starting from today, the Inspector General will grant a three-month amnesty to pray for the Emperor."
…
These three big figures in the legal community expressed this, which is of great significance.
All the courtiers kneeling on the ground felt as relaxed as if their shackles had been lifted.
"The King of War is mighty."
"Sir Yan, please sympathize with me."
"Prime Minister Yan has a sharp eye and saves us from the sea of suffering."
…
A group of ministers were grateful and spoke sadly.
Yang Ke was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that Yan Qi would actually pull this trick.
What amnesty for the world?
Yan Qi's so-called amnesty for the world was to absolve these officials.
If these ministers were absolved of their crimes, it would be equivalent to the fact that Yang Ke's grip on them would be gone.
If there is no evidence, will these ministers still listen to him?
Yang Ke became anxious: "Yan Qi, what authority do you have to grant amnesty to the world? How can the crimes of these ministers be written off? This is unfair? Even if it is a crime, you are shielding the criminal. Yan Qi, you are as guilty as the criminal."
Yan Qi laughed and shrugged: "Why don't I have the power? I am the Prime Minister, I am the King of War, and I have the power to correct mistakes. You are the Deputy Prime Minister, you can only express opposition, but you have no power to stop it. You If you want to accuse me of harboring criminals, then you can accuse me of harboring criminals to the emperor, and I won’t stop you. Come on, go ahead and accuse me. The emperor is sitting there, go and accuse me.”
Yang Ke blew his beard and glared: "You... Yan Qi, you... you are so unreasonable."
Yan Qi shrugged indifferently: "I don't claim to be a reasonable person, so I don't think there is any problem."
Yang Ke was speechless.
This guy is more shameless than me, what can you do to him?
Yan Qi looked at the ministers who were kneeling and said: "It is inevitable to make mistakes in life. Some small mistakes can be forgiven, but mistakes of principle must not be made. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous, ranging from beheading to confiscating the family and exterminating the clan. , you should think carefully."
"Yes, remember the War King's teachings."
"Hearing the words of the King of War will serve you for life."
"I'm so ashamed."
…
This group of ministers knew that their lives were saved, and they were all grateful.
Yan Qixiao asked: "You have to express your stance to the Eighth King. The Eighth King's teachings to you are profound. You should ask for advice."
The ministers knew what Yan Qi meant and quickly expressed their stance to the Eight Kings.
If you don't take a stand at this time, isn't that a clear sign of seeking death?
Yu Ce, Duan Hong, and Liu Chong took the lead in attacking the Eight Kings.
"The eight princes just made such nonsense to the emperor, which is really disrespectful."
"How can you offend the majesty of the emperor?"
"Please eight kings apologize to the emperor immediately."
…
The three of them turned their guns and fired at the Eight Kings.
The Eighth Prince was furious.
"You three juniors..."
Before the Eight Kings could finish cursing, a group of ministers from behind attacked him.
"Eight kings, please kneel down and apologize to the emperor."
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good."
"You are using despicable means to threaten us. You are really shameless."
…
The Eight Kings became the target of public criticism.
He wanted to retaliate, but his angry roar was lost in the cries of the officials' attacks.
At this moment, the Eighth Prince was confused and his hands and feet were trembling.
The situation and voices turned to Yan Qi.
Just now, the ministers who were standing for the Eight Kings, nine out of ten, fell to Yan Qi.
Surrendering to the enemy is as simple as that.
Seeing such momentum, An Sihai and others couldn't help but sigh that Yan Qi's methods were unique and extremely strategic.
An Sihai gave Yan Qi a thumbs up: "Xianxiu is really great, I didn't teach you in vain."
Tong Jian and Zhao Qing were sweating profusely.
This old gangster really knows how to put money on his face.
Tong Jian and the others all understood that although these ministers were following the Eight Kings, they couldn't kill them all, right?
This requires half of the ministers.
If we really want to convict them all, will the imperial court still be called an imperial court?
Moreover, as long as you work in the court and want to do something practical, you will definitely make some small mistakes.
If you are led by the nose because of these small mistakes, isn't that making an absolutist mistake?
Therefore, Yan Qi's move to amnesty the world was a fool's errand.
It gave the ministers a reassurance.
Let them put down their burdens and ignore those accusations.
Although some ministers' crimes were indeed serious, it would be unfair to grant them amnesty.
However, at this critical juncture, there is no absolute correctness, only vague correctness.
It's crucial to get the ambiguity right.
Moreover, Yan Qi also has the absolute strength to say the words "Amnesty to the World".
Wenzhi and martial arts are indomitable.
How can anyone else have this strength?
With this move, the Eight Kings' camp was immediately shattered.
There are only a few ministers who continue to follow the Eight Kings.
…
Yan Qi took care of the ministers and finally targeted the Eight Kings.
Yan Qi smiled and looked at the Eighth King: "Why are all the ministers attacking the Eighth King? Could it be that the Eighth King is the legendary new emperor?"
The Eighth Prince took the risk and grinned: "Yan Qi, you don't have to roar in front of me! My ascension to the throne is inevitable and no one can stop me."
Yan Qidao: "I want to hear it. How is it inevitable? Why is it inevitable?"
The Eighth Prince raised his head proudly: "The throne is so powerful that it is only natural for me to be the emperor."
"Although the emperor is not dead yet, he is confused and refuses to take on important responsibilities to make a living for the common people. I ascend the throne early. Isn't it just the right time? Yang Ke, Zhang Yongwu, does this king make sense?"
Yang Ke frowned and shouted: "Of course it makes sense."
Zhang Yongwu had a fierce look on his face: "As it should be, asking for orders for the people is absolutely correct. It is natural for the eight kings to ascend the throne, and no one can stop it."
The Eighth Prince yelled blankly: "Yan Qi, did you hear that? My succession to the throne is a logical and logical event, and who can stop it? So what if you are the King of War? In addition to supporting me, you also have The second option? Hahaha."
Yan Qi's eyes were strange: "The Eighth King said it well, brothers should be treated like brothers, this is the ancestral motto, and it is also the general outline of the law, and it is absolutely correct."
"However, before brothers and sisters, there is another saying that the emperor has no sons. What does this son include? The emperor's sons and grandsons."
"If the emperor has sons and grandsons, what's the use of saying that brothers end up before brothers?"
The Eighth Prince shrugged proudly: "Does the Emperor have a son? Does the Emperor have a grandson? Haha, if so, please come up and let everyone open their eyes. Oh, are you going to the cemetery to dig out the prince's bones? Then The stench in this court hall is really high."
Yang Ke, Zhang Yongwu and the other buddies laughed.
The old emperor was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood again.
Hua Wubing hurriedly gave the old emperor acupuncture in advance.
