At noon the next day, Emperor Liang directly issued an edict deposing Xie Bi as Duke of Bi!
As soon as the news came out, the whole of Kyoto was shaken, and everyone in the streets was talking about it.
Even the vegetable sellers or the servants who came out to buy things talked about this matter.
"Have you heard? Duke Ning Guo has been deposed."
"Why haven't you heard of it? It has been spread in Kyoto."
"Xie Bigui was the Duke of the country, and it is simply unbelievable that he was deposed like this."
"Who says it's not the case? Just the title of Duke is already an honor that is out of reach."
"The Xie family and the Qin family are getting married. When Xie Yun'er marries Lord Qin, the Xie family's status will be one of the best in Kyoto."
"What kind of scenery is this?!"
"As a result, a sudden edict sent the Xie family into hell. It was too cruel."
"What do you know? This is called imperial power. Not to mention a Duke of Ning, even if he is ranked among the three Dukes, he will not be abolished at the drop of a hat."
"Having said that, after all, there is Marquis Qin behind the Xie family."
"Don't you understand? The Qin family is about to be liquidated."
"Shh, just buy your food and don't care about your status. Don't talk about state affairs! You may lose your life."
Qin Feng clasped his hands behind his back and walked towards Xie's house. He clearly felt that something was wrong with the way the people around him looked at him.
Now everyone in Kyoto feels that after the Xie family falls, the Qin family will follow closely.
Even the Duke was deposed, and Qin Feng, the "No. 1 Marquis in the World," naturally could not survive for a few days.
But everyone was surprised to find that Qin Feng was not afraid or nervous at all, but even acted with ease as before.
There were whispers all around again.
"Strange, Lord Qin is not afraid at all?"
"I'm afraid! Although Lord Qin's title is lower than Duke Ning's, his position is much more secure than Duke Ning's."
"You don't even think about it. Besides the honorary title, what else does Ning Guogong have?"
"In comparison, Lord Qin has the entire Northern Territory behind him!"
"Oh, it's true!"
Listening to the comments around him, Qin Feng felt funny.
As expected of the people of Kyoto, the people at the feet of the emperor, their political sense is too keen.
Even the vegetable seller can have a taste of the political affairs of the DPRK and China.
Before Qin Feng could reach the door of Xie's house, he heard a noise far away.
Looking around, I saw that Ning Guogong's mansion had been blocked by administrators from all walks of life.
"Mr. Ning Guo, I'll be waiting to see you off."
"You call him Ning Guogong! He has been deposed."
"Hahaha, I almost forgot about this. Xie Bi, open the door. You are no longer a Duke."
"This prince, except for the royal family, can reach the highest title for ordinary people. Even if he is deposed, he should be demoted one level at a time."
"The saint, however, just issued an edict and slapped Xie Bi to the end, deposing him as a commoner. Hahaha, he really set a precedent for me to be demoted!"
"I didn't realize it until you told me!"
"Xie Bi, old man, aren't you usually very noble? Why have you turned into a coward today?!"
Listening to the crowd's shouting, Qin Feng's eyes flashed sharply.
He stepped forward and punched a shouting middle-aged man in the mouth, regardless of the other person's identity.
Accompanied by the sudden screams, the noise outside Xie's mansion suddenly stopped.
"Fuck!"
"Who is so bold as to dare to attack me!"
"Come here, catch this bold maniac quickly..."
Before the middle-aged man could finish saying the words "arrest", the roar stopped abruptly.
Looking at Qin Feng standing in front of him, the middle-aged man turned pale in an instant. He quickly took a few steps back, covering his bleeding nose, and did not dare to say another word.
One of the "doctors" present couldn't stand it and shouted: "Qin Feng! How dare you beat the imperial official in public."
"Do you still have Wang Fa in your eyes?!"
Qin Feng's eyes fell on the doctor. Before he could speak, the doctor was pulled aside by the sixth-grade official next to him.
The other party kept winking at the doctor, signaling the doctor to avoid his advances.
Several officials around him also whispered to dissuade him.
"Mr. Zhao, you have just returned to Kyoto and know nothing about what happened these days."
"Some things are a long story. Just remember, never confront Mr. Qin."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhao couldn't help but snorted coldly, his eyes filled with contempt.
With a flick of his long sleeves, he broke away from the hands of several officials and said angrily: "This is unreasonable!"
"You are afraid of Qin Feng, but I am not afraid of him!"
"As an official of the imperial court and protected by Daliang's legal system, not to mention being innocent, even if he commits a serious crime, he must first be tried by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple."
"How can we just say we'll fight?!"
Speaking of this, Langzhong Zhao stared at Qin Feng and shouted angrily: "Qin Feng, you idiot, you are so arrogant!"
"This is the important place in Kyoto, under the emperor's feet. How can you be so arrogant! I will scold you today. If you dare to touch a hair on my head, let's see you in Dali Temple!"
Facing Mr. Zhao's provocation, Qin Feng smiled and said nothing.
After all, this guy has a bit of an official character, unlike those cowards next to him who are good for nothing except stirring up trouble and forming cliques.
Seeing Doctor Zhao scolding Qin Feng loudly in public, all the officials present felt chills on their backs and sweat on their foreheads.
The head of the Ministry of Etiquette, who was on good terms with Mr. Zhao, grabbed Mr. Zhao's arm and reminded him in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, stop talking."
"Not to mention you, so what if you are the Minister of Justice?"
"I was almost beaten to death by Qin Feng last night, and he was in front of His Highness the Second Highness, Lin Taibao and the Minister of Punishment."
"The results of it?"
"No one mentioned it, it was like nothing happened."
Zhao Langzhong, who had been upright just now, opened his eyes in disbelief.
Qin Feng is so arrogant that he even dares to beat the minister?
The most frightening thing is that the beating is in vain...
Just when Mr. Zhao felt that he had caused a big trouble and was most likely going to be 'destroyed' by Qin Feng.
Qin Feng suddenly laughed.
"Mr. Zhao, how come an upright official like you colludes with such a scum who adds insult to injury?"
As soon as these words came out, most of the officials present looked extremely ugly.
Zhao Langzhong calmed down the shock in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Who... who said that I am here to add insult to injury?"
"I was ordered to come here to check the Xie family's assets and act impartially."
As the saying goes, when people leave and Xie Bi is deposed, all the property of Ningguo Duke's mansion will naturally be confiscated.
