Immediately afterwards.
Eunuch Wei took the account book with both hands and handed it to Emperor Xia respectfully: "Your Majesty, please check it!"
Emperor Xia took it and didn't open it immediately!
Instead, Ruo Ruo looked at the prince thoughtfully and asked, "What do you think of what happened last night?"
"Those thieves killed your Ninth Prince brother and the royal censor for the account book. Their hands and eyes were all over the sky. Who do you think was behind those thieves?"
"What if we catch the person behind the scenes?"
At this time, the prince's mind went blank, and he said with a stiff face: "Father, I think those thieves who dared to attack and kill the Nine Princes' brothers, and who dared to break into the residence of an important official of the imperial court to commit murder, are really extremely evil and guilty!"
"If I'm caught, I won't be spared lightly!"
Emperor Xia blinked: "Do you want to kill the nine tribes?"
The prince's heart tightened!
He glanced at Emperor Xia nervously: "No!"
If he kills the nine clans, the royal family will be gone!
At this time.
Xia Tian stared at the prince and said: "Father, just kill the culprit!"
Then, Xia Tian stared at Cao Wei and said: "Of course, his vicious accomplices will also be caught and executed!"
"Other followers will be punished according to their crimes!"
Emperor Xia nodded: "Then punish the evildoer and the accomplices who committed the most heinous crimes!"
"Don't let anyone go!"
Hearing this, the prince's heart suddenly went cold.
It’s over!
Was this meant for him?
Are you going to kill him?
Next to him, Cao Wei's face was pale and his heart felt like it was falling into the abyss.
Life and death are no longer up to them!
At this time.
A censor in red came out and said: "Your Majesty, assassinating a prince or a minister in the imperial capital has never happened before!"
"I believe that in order to prevent this from happening again, when the main culprit is caught, he should be sentenced to death and his death should shock the world!"
"I suggest that the five horses be cut into pieces, and their head, limbs, body, and internal organs be separated and hung on the city wall for public display!"
"Huh......"
The prince and Cao Wei gasped with horror in their eyes!
So poisonous!
Immediately afterwards.
The second censor in red stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I recommend that Ling Chi be executed. He will be cut with one knife and let him wail for three days and three nights until he bleeds out the last drop of blood and dies."
"Then, the cut pieces of meat will be distributed to everyone in the world for food, and the bones will be used to make soup for the dogs to drink!"
The fear in the eyes of the prince and Cao Wei was even worse!
My back feels as cold as ice!
This censor is even more vicious!
When they thought of being tied to a wooden stake and being cut into pieces piece by piece by a traitor with a knife in their hands, the prince and Cao Wei felt that life was extremely miserable and they had no love in life.
How painful it would be to die like that!
This is not over yet!
The third censor in red stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I thought we could skin the human skin first, make a human skin lantern from the skin, and then execute him in Lingchi."
"Then, spread the human skin lantern across all nine states, so that everyone in the world will know the consequences of assassinating the prince and court ministers!"
"Let him be infamous and damned forever!"
The eyes of all the censors in red were bright, and they all came out and said: "I second the proposal!"
"The man behind the scenes must die in a miserable manner, and his death must be meaningful enough to scare the evil thieves in the world!"
"Your Majesty, please judge!"
beside.
The prince and Cao Wei already had the image of being skinned in their minds.
The blood in their chests was boiling, and their souls were shaking!
These censors are so vicious!
The two of them stood there as if their strength had been drained away, with cold sweat on their faces and fear in their eyes. Their bodies were shaky and they might fall down at any time!
After a while.
Emperor Xia read the contents of the account books and memorials.
He handed the account book and memorial to Eunuch Wei and looked at Xia Tian with admiration.
Then, he stared at the prince and asked: "Prince, do you know whose names are recorded in the cold ledger?"
The prince's body went limp and he collapsed directly to the ground, almost fainting!
Emperor Xia was extremely disappointed: "Physician, see what's wrong with the prince?"
"yes!"
During the Great Xia court meetings, there would always be imperial doctors standing by to deal with such matters at any time.
The prince forcibly stood up and said: "Father, I just didn't get a good rest last night. I was a little dizzy just now. It's okay!"
Emperor Xia had lost patience with the prince and said coldly: "That's good!"
"Imperial City Division, arrest the person according to the name on the memorial!"
"yes!"
Eunuch Wei made a special gesture to the guards in front of the palace.
Suddenly, the golden-armored guards ran into the palace from outside the palace. The sound of armor and swords clashing echoed through the entire hall, making the princelings tremble with fear!
Immediately afterwards, Eunuch Wei opened the memorial and read: "Zhishu, Liu Yang..."
When Eunuch Wei read one sentence, he collapsed one by one, with tears and runny noses running down his cheeks: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged!"
"Leng Bing is dead. There is no proof of his death. The imperial censor has wronged his ministers!"
Emperor Xia said coldly: "Whether you are guilty or not, the court will definitely verify it. It will not wrongly accuse a good minister, nor let go of any thief who stands in this court!"
The golden-armored guards rushed directly into the courtiers, sealed their mouths and arrested them, all with clean movements!
At this moment, the prince and Cao Wei were so disheartened that they closed their eyes!
Those being arrested now are all princelings.
The ministers were also as silent as cicadas!
Everyone knows that the Zhao Prison of the Imperial City Division is as deep as the sea. Death is the only way to escape if you go in. If you are alive, life will definitely be worse than death!
In a short time, the golden-armored guards arrested more than twenty princelings.
Only then did Eunuch Wei put away the memorial and said, "Your Majesty, the arrests have been made!"
Emperor Xia nodded: "That's it!"
At this time, the ministers in the court breathed a sigh of relief!
The prince and Cao Wei were both surprised!
Their names are on the account book, why doesn't the imperial censor report it?
Leave a way out?
At this moment, the prince was filled with the feeling of surviving the disaster and glared at Xia Tian fiercely!
Damn it, Lao Jiu didn’t harm him after all!
Xia Tian doesn't care!
Immediately afterwards.
The court meeting began to deal with Daxia government affairs.
After processing, let’s disperse!
Xia Tian was about to go out when he saw Eunuch Wei appearing in front of him: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has an invitation in the imperial study!"
Xia Tian has long expected: "Please father-in-law lead the way!"
Shortly after.
In the royal study.
Emperor Xia held the Huangzhou tea bowl in his hand, and the old god asked: "Why should I let your prince go?"
"Why let Cao Wei go?"
"Why should we let go of the prince's capable ministers?"
Emperor Xia stared into Xia Tian's eyes and said, "I want to hear the truth!"
Xia Tian smiled handsomely: "Father, the reason why I don't take the name of the crown prince is because the royal family cannot have any more rumors about brothers killing each other, and we want to protect the royal family's face!"
"The reason why I don't report Prime Minister Cao's name is because my father wants someone to restrain Prime Minister Sima!"
"As for letting the prince's capable ministers go, it's because they have less corruption and bribery. Among these courtiers, they are considered to be incorruptible!"
"The most important thing is that they are capable ministers and have the ability to help the court govern the world!"
"If they are all imprisoned, the operation of the court will be greatly affected!"
“Two powers benefit each other, whichever is more important, and two powers that harm each other, whichever is less important!”
"As for those princelings who are fooling around and those officials who have committed many evil deeds, I have not spared any of them!"
"Hahaha......"
Emperor Xia smiled!
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Emperor Xia praised him three times: "Like me!"
"Xiaojiu, do you want to be the crown prince?"
Xia Tian was stunned.
Emperor Xia asked seriously!
"Tell me, do you want to be a prince?"
