News of Yan Guoan's death quickly spread throughout the capital.
Countless officials were horrified.
Isn't it an act of benevolence to kill a minister in vain? Now it has been decided that the world will have great rule in the future, but it has not been peaceful for a few years, and His Majesty actually started to attack important ministers.
Just use the knife! At least give a reason.
Is the failure to manage the city to your satisfaction the reason?
There is no such natural disaster anywhere, so why only Yan Guoan was killed?
The officials were furious, frightened and panicked. If you had gone through the judicial process and killed someone, everyone might not have such a big reaction, but His Majesty is now unscrupulous and will kill whoever he wants. In the future, if the butcher's knife falls on his head, there will still be people who can speak for him. ?
In anger, the crowd quickly zeroed in on the suspect Fang Zhengyi.
There is only one possibility for Your Majesty to kill Yan Guoan in vain, and that is Fang Zhengyi's involvement.
Who in the court didn't know that there was a rift between the two of them, but they didn't expect it! This guy is so vicious!
If the prince ascends the throne one day, wouldn't Fang Zhengyi be able to mess with whoever he wants?
........
When he went to court on the second day, Emperor Jing sat high on the dragon throne.
His Highness and his ministers knelt down in large groups, and there were also many people standing here and there.
Most of those standing were senior ministers and other people who knew the inside story, while those kneeling were basically people from the Hanlin Academy.
The leader was Yang Yingcai, a Hanlin scholar.
At this time, he knelt down on the ground, his face flushed and he said excitedly: "Why did your Majesty kill Yan Guoan in vain? Are there villains around you who have repeatedly slandered you?"
"This is a huge matter. If there is no reasonable explanation, I am afraid that the hearts of scholars all over the world will be chilled!"
"When the time comes when all the students in the world are disengaged from morality, this will not be a blessing to the country!"
"A total of one hundred and twenty people in the Hanlin Academy are kneeling outside the royal gate. Please give your Majesty a clear warning!"
"Slanderous words are used, and loyal and good people are deposed from afar. If your majesty cannot kiss virtuous ministers, I will be far away from villains. I am willing to kneel in front of your majesty for a long time!"
Li Yansong and the others couldn't help sighing. They had already lost their temper in private, but some people didn't listen to the advice.
Yan Guoan himself has some vague intention of becoming the new generation leader of the Hanlin Academy. He is very popular and has profound knowledge.
It attracted many people to follow him willingly, so many people in the Hanlin Academy had a bad feeling about Fang Zhengyi.
Especially the younger generation was full of enthusiasm, thinking that Fang Zhengyi had bewitched His Majesty with his slanderous words.
He didn't expect the backlash would come so quickly...
Guo Tianyang looked at this group of people expressionlessly, feeling very disdainful.
The imperial court has experienced rapid turnover at the bottom level in the past two years, and many people do not know His Majesty's methods. I am really stupid in reading, I don’t know whose hand the knife is!
Emperor Jing looked at the people below with interest, and there were many people kneeling outside the hall.
Then he said: "So... who is the villain you are talking about?"
"The villain is Fang Zhengyi!"
Yang Yingcai said nothing, and a Hanlin at the end of the team stood up.
Emperor Jing glanced at him and suddenly saw someone standing next to him, and asked curiously: "Hey, why don't you kneel down?"
The person standing is none other than Hanlin editor Yang Fengfan.
I saw Yang Fengfan's expression became serious and he said respectfully: "Returning to your Majesty, I believe that your Majesty has a sharp eye and there are no villains around you, so your Majesty's actions naturally follow your Majesty's principles."
Emperor Jing smiled. He was a real villain. There was a traitor in the Imperial Academy. It was interesting.
Fang Zhengyi also looked back curiously, and Yang Fengfan immediately winked at him.
Ever since he licked Fang Zhengyi, Yang Fengfan had become a bad person in the Hanlin Academy and was ostracized every day.
However, he is not afraid of boiling water. As long as he hugs Fang Zhengyi's thigh, he still has a bright future.
Regardless of whether he is a villain or not, Yang Fengfan finally understood that His Majesty favored Fang Zhengyi, so he followed Fang Zhengyi and licked him, that's right!
"Fang Qing, they all say you are a villain. What do you think?"
Fang Zheng was already scolding him in his heart.
Your Majesty is really a master at finding trouble. I don't want Yan Guo'an to die. I've been inexplicably taking such a big blame in the few days I've been idle. I really can't get away with it later!
When he looked up, he saw Li Yuanzhao winking again and said angrily: "I am not a villain. I think Mr. Yang looks like a weakling at his age!"
"???"
Soft person? The group of people in the court didn't think about it for a while.
After thinking for a while, I realized that many people were kneeling on the ground and kept stirring.
Yang Yingcai blushed and looked at Fang Zhengyi with wide eyes.
You're fucking talking obscenely in court, and you're saying you're not a villain? !
Emperor Jing glared: "Stop talking nonsense!"
"Yang Qing, how long do you plan to kneel down?"
"If Your Majesty cannot kiss your virtuous ministers, I will be unable to kneel in front of Your Majesty!"
Fang Zheng was just thinking about whether he should change his name to Fang Xianchen. He looked up and saw Emperor Jing's cold smile, and he immediately felt refreshed.
Seeing that His Majesty is like this, he will never compromise. I don’t know what his plans are next.
Emperor Jing said: "Okay, since you are so willing to kneel, then kneel down."
"If you are hungry, I will send the imperial kitchen to deliver meals to you all!"
I'll give you some more laxatives!
Fang Zheng was excited at first... A bunch of bullies actually dared to mess with him. If he didn't, it would still be me, Fang Zhengyi!
Anyway, if you are so offended, you have to go to death!
While Fang Zheng was thinking about how to deal with this group of people, Yang Yingcai spoke.
The voice was extremely sad: "I am willing to die to remonstrate!"
"Death remonstrance?" Emperor Jing stood up and looked down at the ministers: "You open your mouth to the world and shut your mouth to the world, have you ever put the people of the world in your eyes?"
"I will kill every person like Yan Guoan I see."
"Now that you are willing to stand up for him, I have no objection. If you want to kneel down, just kneel down. No one in this world can be separated."
"It just so happens that I can see the character and courage of all my ministers and withdraw from the imperial court!"
As soon as these words came out, many people below were immediately shaken!
Everyone is here to cause trouble, but I really don’t want to keep kneeling! Kneeling for an hour will kill you!
How to step down now!
Yang Yingcai was desperate. He was not afraid of kneeling, but what he was afraid of was Emperor Jing's attitude.
If this happens, the country will no longer be a country!
Just as Emperor Jing was about to leave, Fang Zheng stepped out of the queue and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, please stay!"
"Huh? Do you have anything else to say?"
Fang Zheng said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, someone will die if you kneel down like this!"
"All the ministers in the court are the pillars of the country. If something goes wrong because of this, wouldn't it affect the livelihood of the people in the world?"
Many people raised their heads and looked at Fang Zhengyi in surprise.
What's going on? Your Majesty didn't give in, and the loser rebelled first? There's drama!
Emperor Jing was extremely disappointed when he heard that Fang Zhengyi also opposed him.
He frowned and said, "What do you mean! Are you saying that I was wrong?"
Fang Zhengyi said respectfully: "I! That's not what I meant. I just want to say that kneeling on the ground is too tiring."
"Your Majesty, please move to Dengjinfang. The water quality is good and the buoyancy is great. Kneeling is not tiring!"
Suddenly all Hanlin looked at him with wide eyes.
Fang Zhengyi, CNM!
