There was an uproar in the main hall.
Chang Biao, Ximen Bao and others were all surprised by Zhao Shan's strength, and they did not expect that Zhao Shan would say such a thing.
Xunchen Group is a great force and has great influence. On the one hand, there are many descendants of the founding ministers who hold positions in the court. Although they are not high-ranking positions, they are not bad.
On the other hand, Xunchen has been inherited for hundreds of years and has mastered many resources.
In the past, many Daqian emperors showed great respect to the people of the Xunchen Group and tried to win over them with benefits. After each emperor ascends the throne, he will always give some rewards and increase some food. When encountering an emperor who values military power over civility, he will still use his distinguished ministers.
After Zhao Shan ascended the throne, nothing was given to him, and his ministers did not say anything.
Now Zhao Shan wants to use the knife on them.
Definitely not.
Chang Biao was unwilling to give in. If he gave in today, the Xunchen Group would have no choice but to be slaughtered.
Chang Biao solemnly said: "Your Majesty insists on protecting a traitor like Du Gangfeng, which will inevitably lead to the collapse of Daqian, and may also be reviled by all the people. Please think twice."
"Your Majesty, please think again!"
Ximen Bao and others knelt down to express their stance.
A huge crowd of people knelt down with great momentum.
Zhuge Shang, Fang Weihu, Xiao Yan, Shen Yuanqing and other powerful officials in the court watched with cold eyes and did not get involved.
Zhao Shan was not angry at all when he saw the scene of kneeling down.
On the contrary, I was very happy.
Daqian has stabilized his basic market through his conquests. But the internal situation is not optimistic. Because the benefits controlled by the imperial court were divided among countless people, more benefits could not be distributed to those in need.
To solve the problem, either overturn it and start over again, or release internal resources.
The crusade against Jizhou, Youzhou and other places, as well as the future attacks on Jingzhou Zhao Rui, Yangzhou Wu King Zhao Gou and others, are a process of overturning and starting over and re-building the interest system.
If the imperial court cannot overthrow it, it can only eliminate the moths and release internal resources.
Only in this way can great changes be made.
When Zhao Shan looked calm, his eyes made contact with Du Gangfeng. In an instant, Du Gangfeng stood up holding a wat tablet and said: "Your Majesty, I have this memorial."
Zhao Shan said: "A group of people are impeaching you, do you still dare to go to court?"
Du Gangfeng replied: "I am justified and I am not afraid of pressure or impeachment. I am impeaching nineteen distinguished ministers, including Duke Chang Biao of Wei, Duke Ximen Bao of An, Duke Li Yan of Fujian, and Duke Jin Qiu of Yue, for taking bribes, perverting the law, and persecuting the people. Killing innocent people indiscriminately.”
Wow! !
Chang Biao, Ximen Bao and others were shocked.
No one expected that Du Gangfeng would be so bold as to bypass Song Qingshan to impeach them.
Everyone once again clamored to punish Du Gangfeng, and Chang Biao further threatened that if Zhao Shan disagreed, he would be killed in the main hall.
Zhao Shan looked at the noisy court and said coldly: "As expected of an honorable minister, he is used to being overbearing and arrogant, and he won't even let anyone speak. Du Gangfeng wants to impeach him, so everyone attacks him and asks me to execute Du Gangfeng immediately. "
"If I don't deal with it, I will be a fool."
"As you wish, Du Gangfeng will stop the Great Qianzhongxing just by disrupting government affairs."
Zhao Shan flicked his sleeves and said forcefully: "Lang Lang, how can I allow you to make noise in the hall? Chang Biao, aren't you going to hit him to death? I will help you. Someone, come and hit Chang Biao against the big pillar in the hall."
Two soldiers came in hurriedly, lifted up Chang Biao's armpits one on the left and the other on the right, and bumped against the beams and pillars.
"No, let me go."
boom! !
His head hit the beam hard.
boom! boom! !
Two more hits in a row.
Tick tock! Tick tock! !
The blood came out and flowed down drop by drop. He often had a broken head and bleeding, and his head hurt terribly. He was frightened and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I was wrong. Let me down quickly."
Zhao Shan waved and Chang Biao was thrown to the ground.
Chang Biao raised his hand and wiped it on his head. His hands were covered with blood, and the blood flowed down his hair and wet his cheeks, making him look even more miserable and embarrassed.
This scene fell in the eyes of Ximen Bao, Li Yan, Jin Qiu and others, and they were all frightened and stunned.
Zhao Shan continued: "Du Gangfeng, continue."
Du Gangfeng continued: "Your Majesty, the impeachment by Chang Biao and others is empty talk, and I have conclusive evidence."
"For example, Chang Biao, after getting jealous over a singer in a brothel, beat the man and the singer to death. But he asked Song Qingshan to arrange it, and the killer has been found."
"In addition, Chang Biao forced people to death and occupied countless fields. There were a total of thirty-eight murders."
"For example, the Ximen Leopard is also extremely vicious."
"Ximen Bao fell in love with a pet dog in Luoyang West Market, and the businessman just sold it. Ximen Bao demanded it forcefully, but the businessman declined politely because he didn't want to break his promise."
"The Ximen Leopard became angry and beat the businessman to death, then killed the person who bought the dog, and finally threw the pet dog to death. It was simply crazy."
"Ximen Bao was involved in twenty-nine murders."
"Li Yan, Jin Qiu and other nineteen distinguished ministers are also like this. All the evidence of the crime has been clearly verified."
Du Gangfeng took out the book he had written separately and said loudly: "All the evidence is here. Please check it, Your Majesty."
Song Qingshan is dead.
Moreover, Song Qingshan was just a pawn, and Du Gangfeng didn't mention it at all.
The key is Chang Biao and others.
Zhao Shan took it and browsed it quickly. With an angry look on his face, he threw the book in front of Ximen Bao, Li Yan and others, and said coldly: "As a founding hero, under the title of Duke and Marquis, you pretend to be He looks like a human being, but he doesn’t behave like a human being, like an animal.”
Ximen Bao first picked up the book, read his own murder case, collapsed to the ground, and prostrated himself in the tunnel: "Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
After Li Yan, Jin Qiu and other honorable ministers read this, they all knelt down and begged for mercy.
Everyone lost their domineering and arrogant posture. Even Chang Biao was trembling and kneeling on the ground, feeling even more frightened in his heart.
What they did was very secretive, but now everything has been verified clearly, including the time, place and people who participated.
This is irrefutable evidence.
Zhao Shan's eyes were cold and he continued: "Why are you begging for mercy? If you want to impeach Du Gangfeng, you must also produce conclusive evidence like Du Gangfeng."
Chang Biao, Ximen Bao and others were all speechless.
Only then did they understand that relying on the strength of the people and the status of the descendants of the Duke of the country had no effect.
Du Gangfeng’s impeachment is the trump card.
Zhao Shan continued: "You have committed heinous crimes one by one. If I don't kill you, I will be sorry for the millions of Daqian people. If I don't kill you, Daqian will not have a bright future."
Chang Biao, Ximen Bao, Li Yan and others were so frightened that they kept begging for mercy.
Zhao Shan paused for a moment and continued: "But I am kind-hearted and I still miss my old friendship."
Chang Biao and others quickly raised their heads again, looking at Zhao Shan with eyes full of expectation.
Good old days!
Only those who miss the past are sages.
Zhao Shan ordered: "The princes and princes involved in the case will be killed and the culprits will be killed. The innocent people will not be implicated. The houses of the princes and princes will be confiscated, and the clan members will be exiled three thousand miles to Lingnan."
boom! !
Chang Biao, Ximen Bao and others were completely stunned as if they had been struck by a bolt from the blue.
They still have to die, their families have to be exiled, and their homes have to be ransacked. What is the difference between this and direct killing?
Is this nostalgia?
Is this kindhearted?
