"The ancestral rules cannot be broken, right?"
Chen Jue laughed angrily, stood up and threw down the notebook he was playing with.
Those beautiful peach blossom eyes that always held a smile sank, and their eyes gradually looked coldly at the group of people below.
"Then what kind of ancestral rule is this?"
He said angrily: "Is your family controlling the rules of the court, or is it the rules of the court where the top class has no humble family and the bottom class has no clan?"
"I don't dare!"
They didn't dare to respond to this, so they knelt down again.
Chen Jue stood on the high platform with his hands behind his back, showing the majesty of the young emperor on his body, "Don't you dare? I think you are very brave!"
"Your Majesty, we are all loyal to the Chen Kingdom, the country, the country, and the country. Please take back your life!"
The right minister looked excited. He knelt and straightened his back.
"I must not sit back and watch His Majesty's country and the people treat it as a child's play. If Your Majesty cannot take back his life today, I will die here on my knees even if I don't want this official title today."
Following the right minister's words, all the ministers in the court, except for a few, said the same thing.
Chen Jue narrowed his eyes slightly and looked condescendingly at the group of ministers below who kept saying they were doing the best for Chen Guo, but when Chen Guo was in trouble, they all ran faster than anyone else.
Especially the Right Prime Minister Xie Wenren.
In the novel, two years later the male protagonist led the rebel army to the outside of Luojing City, where the right prime minister Xie Wenren led the officials and people of the Chen Kingdom to open the city gate first.
The reason is: Chen Guo has an incompetent king, and the most capable people in the world live here to protect the people from the chaos of war.
He said he was righteous, but in fact, in his memory, Xie Wenren had betrayed Chen Guo a long time ago.
Later in the novel, the right prime minister Xie Wenren and the eldest princess conspire to overthrow the New Deal.
Fortunately, in the novel, the male protagonist never reuses Xie Wenren, and people still stare at him.
Otherwise, the imperial order in the hands of the eldest princess would be enough to overthrow the newly established New Deal, which was in ruins and waiting to be revitalized.
Whether it was Xie Wenren in the novel or Xie Wenren in his original memory, Chen Jue had no interest in them.
Xie Wenren has no ability, but he stands at the head of the officials and blocks the policies set by him.
After the original policy was decided, he stopped taking care of it and left it all to the right minister.
If the right minister had been more dedicated, Chen Guo might not have been destroyed in the novel.
Not qualified for the job!
If this is the case, then it’s time for a replacement in the position of right prime minister!
"Is the Right Prime Minister threatening me?" Chen Jue's eyes narrowed and he stared at him.
"I don't dare. I just want your Majesty to take back my life for the sake of the country and the people."
"That's so nice to say!" If he hadn't known who Xie Wenren was, he would have believed him!
Chen Jue lightly hummed and smiled, "In that case, I will follow your wishes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jue glanced at the newly minted Commander Jinwu beside him, and saw that he was kneeling in front of them just now, straightened his back and fell to the ground in an instant.
Seeing the head wearing an official hat rolling around several times, the hall suddenly became silent.
Everyone was shocked, and then they remembered that the person above him had a bad temper and refused to accept their advice.
Seeing everyone's scared faces, Chen Jue was satisfied.
He doesn't want to be known as a "foolish king" at all. In his opinion, a faint king also has the benefits of being a fool.
Nowadays, the imperial court is now filled with people from various aristocratic families. Only by using thunderous means to frighten these aristocratic families can the policies promoted by the original body be effectively implemented.
Reform always requires blood, so let him do it!
Chen Jue covered his lips with a handkerchief and coughed, then sat on the dragon chair.
He also thoughtfully asked them to get up, "Everyone, please get up. The ground is cold and kneeling on the ground will hurt your legs."
Seeing His Majesty's eyes smiling and his voice soft, and then looking at the right Prime Minister who had already cloned himself, the ministers were trembling and did not dare to get up.
After a long time, he finished drinking a cup of tea, glanced down, and frowned.
Chen Jue put the tea cup heavily on the imperial desk, "Are you all deaf? I want you all to get up!"
"..." Your Majesty, who dares to get up like you!
"I am not here to discuss the two policies announced today, nor am I here to solicit your opinions."
Everyone: "..."
So just now we have been kneeling here for a long time, wasting our words for a long time, and even deposing a right minister, all in vain?
If we had known this, why would we ask His Majesty to take back his orders?
Everyone looked at each other with regretful expressions, and then they all looked at the dead right minister.
Right Chancellor, you are so unjust!
Chen Jue doesn't care whether the right prime minister is unjust or not, let alone the right prime minister's death is not unjust.
"Tao Yuan, I will see the complete new laws tomorrow at You time. As for the imperial examination, it will be -"
After a pause, Chen Jue suddenly remembered that the right prime minister was gone and he had to choose a new prime minister. It was really troublesome!
He looked down, pondered for a moment, and said: "Wang Si will be appointed as the left prime minister, and Li Wan will be appointed as the right prime minister. When the imperial examination is held for the first time in September this autumn, you and Liu Xun, the Minister of Rites, will handle it together."
"I'm waiting for the order." When the names of the four people were called, they all stood up and said in unison.
"Retreat from the court."
It was really tiring to go to court this time. Chen Jue rubbed his forehead and suddenly heard a "coo coo" sound just halfway through.
Chen Jue stopped and turned to look at Wei Wei. His eyes gradually went down and landed on his stomach, "Are you hungry?"
"...Your Majesty, you are hungry." Wei Wei replied honestly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jue's stomach made a "gurgling" sound.
Chen Jue: "..."
This Commander Jinwu looks a little not very smart!
Not long after Chen Jue returned to the Cultural Hall, Liu Zhong ran in, looking like he was offering a treasure.
"Your Majesty, this servant found out this. All the informants in the palace are here."
"So fast?"
Chen Jue looked at Liu Zhong in disbelief, took the paper in his hand and started to read it.
After reading it, he really admired Liu Zhong for being such a talented person.
It only took a few hours to clear out the hidden line.
Although there may still be a few that have not been cleared out, it is no longer important. After this time, they probably will not dare to act rashly.
"Your Majesty, because there are too many people and we are afraid that they will run out and leak the news, these people are locked up in the abandoned palace by slaves." Liu Zhong asked.
"Very good." Chen Jue nodded.
That's where the original person grew up. It's remote and desolate, and no one usually goes there.
Taking this piece of paper and looking at it again and again, he also had a headache now. It would be impossible to kill all of so many people.
If one or two people die in the palace, no one will know about it, but if there are too many people, people will find out.
If word spreads, he will gain another reputation as a "tyrant".
Headache!
"Your Majesty, I have a solution." At this time, Wei Wei, who had always been taciturn, suddenly spoke up.
Chen Jue looked up, his eyes signaling him to continue.
"In the opinion of my subordinates, these people should go back to where they came from, and send them back to their respective masters' homes."
"No!" As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zhong objected decisively, "This is just a warning, Your Majesty——"
"He's right."
Chen Jue thought about it carefully and felt that Wei Wei's solution was wonderful. "Let them go back. If you can impress them, why not?"
"Wei Wei, I'll leave this matter to you, Zhi Jinwu. You must send them back with great fanfare and don't let them get hurt at all."
