"Yang Wenyuan, you are so brave!"
A military general's eyes widened with anger, as if he wanted to chop Yang Wenyuan alive.
Emperor Qing glanced at the officials. Except for a few military generals, there was not even a single civil servant who dared to stand up and accuse Yang Wenyuan.
He took a deep breath and squeezed the handle of the dragon chair tightly.
"Master Yang, the prince is the prince, so you want the prince to be a hostage? Isn't this a bit too much?"
In front of a room full of courtiers, bluntly saying that the prince was a hostage was not only a slap in the prince's face, but also a slap in the face of the royal family.
That is to say, if it were Yang Wenyuan, ten heads would not be enough to chop off other ministers.
He was not only a veteran of two dynasties, but also the number one contributor to the two generations of emperors in Daqing.
Facing the angry generals and the high-ranking Emperor Qing, Yang Wenyuan seemed very calm.
"Your Majesty, what I said is not an exaggeration at all!"
Yang Wenyuan's answer made Emperor Qing's face change slightly. It made all the ministers take a deep breath.
This is no face at all, and it is not given to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, if it weren't for this incident, Lao Chen originally wanted to propose that Prince Liu Qi be abolished and a new crown prince be replaced!"
If Yang Wenyuan's former statement was audacious, then this statement is simply arrogant.
At this time, all the officials in the court were shocked.
Even Emperor Qing couldn't help showing an unhappy look.
On the contrary, Liu Qi's expression remained as usual.
Old turtle, it took so much effort, and after a lot of effort, I finally spoke out what was on my mind.
Then let me see what tricks you have next.
At this time, Emperor Qing finally couldn't bear it anymore.
If this is said in private, then that's it.
But this is in the court, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and the majesty of the royal family cannot be violated!
"How presumptuous! Did you say you could change the prince if you wanted to?"
The emperor was furious and all the officials were silent.
But Yang Wenyuan still acted calmly.
"Your Majesty, calm down, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"The change of crown prince is due to the prince's four major faults."
"As a prince, he has never participated in political affairs, but he is obsessed with strange things all day long. This is one of them."
"As a heir to the royal family and the crown prince of Daqing, he often goes to the land of fireworks and willows. This is the second reason."
"As a prince, I should set an example. Today is an important court meeting and I only wear ordinary clothes. This is a crime of great disrespect."
"I heard that many of the prince's retainers are people from the Qin state. The Qin state is our sworn enemy. As a prince, he secretly keeps retainers of the enemy's country. How can he be a king?"
At this moment, Yang Wenyuan's voice continued to echo in the hall, making people feel terrified.
What's more, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Of these four major faults, the first three only indicate that the prince has bad conduct, but the fourth one is a crime of collaborating with the enemy!
However, in such a situation, no one dared to speak out in a room full of officials.
Not only because Yang Wenyuan was the prime minister of Daqing and had a very high position, but more importantly, the Qing Emperor was sitting high above him.
The four major faults are here, and the emperor has not expressed his position. Who dares to stand up and speak for Liu Qi at this time?
"It's a shame you can think of the four major faults."
Yang Wenyuan's words shocked the officials and shocked their hearts.
But Liu Qi still sat there calmly.
When the Xiongnu invaded the country, they used the hostage as a guide to change the prince.
Liu Qi was not surprised at all by Yang Wenyuan's tricks.
But looking around the court officials, Liu Qi couldn't help but feel horrified that Yang Wenyuan's power had actually reached such a level.
However, facing Yang Wenyuan's aggressive posture, Emperor Qing once again held back the anger in his heart.
"My dear, this matter is of great importance, so we should discuss it later."
No matter what, changing the crown prince is a big deal. How could the prince be directly convicted in front of the ministers just because of Yang Wenyuan's few words.
For the sake of the royal family's face, Emperor Qing was unwilling to compromise.
But instead of borrowing the donkey from the slope, Yang Wenyuan waved his long sleeves and stretched out his big hands.
"Your Majesty, this matter must not be discussed in the long term!"
As soon as these words came out, the court became so quiet that you could even hear everyone's breathing.
Emperor Qing's face turned red with anger, and he couldn't hide it with just a glance.
But Yang Wenyuan continued to talk nonsense as if he hadn't seen it.
"Your Majesty, if the prince is just an ordinary prince, the various faults mentioned by the ministers will not be of concern. However, the prince is the crown prince and the future of Daqing. I really don't want to see the day when my country, Daqing, ends up being subjugated!"
Saying that, he kowtowed with a puff.
"Your Majesty! Today, I wanted to make a speech and depose the prince. However, the Xiongnu incident broke out. I thought about it again and again. I just wanted to use the prince as a hostage."
"You can calm down the feud between our country and the Xiongnu, and you can also allow His Highness the Crown Prince to contribute to our country and the country!"
"In the future, when our army is strong, our people are rich, and we are not afraid of the Huns, I will welcome back His Highness, who has achieved great success, and ascend to the throne!"
Liu Qi narrowed his eyes.
Fuck you motherfucker.
The labor and capital have all been pledged to the Huns, how can I still retain my status as a prince?
He returned with great merit and was honored with great honor. What kind of international joke are you kidding?
As long as you get to the Xiongnu, there will be only one end.
Living on the last breath is worse than death!
At this time, no matter which choice he made, Emperor Qing was not willing to do so.
"I am deeply gratified that I love you for your loyalty to the country, but this matter cannot be decided casually. Can you please allow me to think about it before discussing it?"
After hearing what his father said, Liu Qi was very angry.
The majestic emperor was actually forced into a discussion by his powerful ministers?
But Yang Wenyuan still didn't give up.
"Your Majesty, this is an urgent matter. I hope your Majesty will make a quick decision!"
After saying that, he knelt down and bowed.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Yang is far-sighted, full of heart for the country, and his generous words are heart-warming. I agree with Mr. Yang's advice!"
"I second the proposal!"
Uh-huh!
just for a moment
Behind Yang Wenyuan, all the civil servants knelt down together. Loud shouts resounded throughout the hall.
Emperor Qing glanced at the kneeling ministers, his hands trembled with anger, blood surged for a while, and he kept coughing.
At this time, Yang Wenyuan straightened up.
"Your Majesty, we have no intention of angering Your Majesty and destroying the dragon's body. This is actually an important matter for the country and we have to hurry!"
"I hope your Majesty will take care of himself and wait until the state affairs are decided before he commits the crime of disrespect such as appointing ministers."
"I wish you all!"
Okay, since you insist on playing, I will accompany you.
At this moment, bursts of hearty laughter suddenly came from the court hall.
After hearing the laughter, everyone's eyes fell on Prince Liu Qi.
"The ministers have already said what they said, angering His Majesty and breaking the body of the dragon? How can there be such a big crime? You are just forcing the palace!"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a strong wind that suddenly swept through the hall.
Everyone was stunned, the word "forced into the palace" kept echoing in the depths of their minds!
