"His Majesty……"
"Drag him out and behead him..."
Li Shimin slapped the dragon chair angrily and shouted loudly.
Damn it...
Everyone was stunned. Old Wei hasn't spoken yet?
Why was he about to be beheaded?
Wei Zheng was also confused. I didn’t say anything, so you beheaded me?
But looking at Li Shimin's crazy look, it didn't look like he was faking it, and Wei Zheng's heart suddenly started pounding.
He said in his heart that he didn't look at the almanac when he went out today.
If you die today, you will really die unjustly.
"Your Majesty, I haven't spoken yet..." Wei Zheng was dragged out by two guards.
"Your Majesty, you are the king of a country. The country, the country and the country are above all else. Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Fang Xuanling and other important ministers immediately fell to their knees and asked for Wei's favor.
Li Shimin slipped down the steps and said coldly: "Since you have interceded for him, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped."
"Let him go to the imperial city gate and evacuate those thieves."
"I'll give them one day. If they don't leave, I don't mind being the tyrant they call them. They forced me to do this."
"Fangqing, tell the world what I just said."
"I will never let the prince die in vain..."
"If Mrs. Zheng recognizes this, she will hand over the murderer immediately. Otherwise, I will have to ask the Ministry of Punishment to arrest him."
Fang Xuanling couldn't calm down for a long time at this moment. The person from the Zheng family in Xingyang turned out to be the murderer of the third prince, and he seemed to be an important figure in the Zheng family.
He thought it was Changsun Wuji and the prince who killed him.
"I obey!"
…
At this moment, the entire city of Chang'an was in a state of excitement. They were holding the newspapers that had just been released today, their faces filled with shock and disbelief!
The headline on the front page clearly read: The third prince, King Shu, has passed away, and the murderer Zheng is at large.
"The third prince passed away? Was he killed by Zheng's people?"
"How can this be?"
"Damn, this is so shocking. The third prince was actually assassinated..."
"No wonder, I saw white lanterns hanging in Prince Shu's Mansion yesterday, and there were cries from inside..."
"Is the sky going to fall today? Someone dares to assassinate the third prince..."
People in the entire Chang'an City were talking about it.
Especially when seeing Zheng's ten major crimes, even ordinary people are filled with hatred.
The first of the ten major crimes: The Zheng family controlled water transportation, colluded with officials and businessmen, and had no laws.
Second: Zheng plundered the people's fat and anointing, seized fertile land, and robbed the people's daughters.
The third one: ruthless and ungrateful, like a wild goose plucking its feathers.
Fourth: Monopolize book knowledge and fool the people.
Fifth: Damage the country's image, collaborate with the enemy and benefit the enemy...
When ordinary people heard about Zheng's ten major crimes, they all felt that Zheng was not a human being, but simply an animal.
Among the ten items, none of them want them to live a good life.
Did the common people dig up your ancestral graves, kill your parents, or...
"Why does Your Majesty keep this kind of family? The emperor is as guilty as the people when he breaks the law. Is the Zheng family greater than the emperor?"
"You know nothing. I'm afraid you don't know how powerful the Zheng family in Xingyang is..."
"There is no need to talk about money. We are definitely as rich as the country. Let's talk about his connections. There are at least dozens of people from the Zheng family, officials above the eighth grade, plus his relatives and friends... ....”
"I'll go, so powerful?"
"Moreover, the Xingyang Zheng family and several other big families are all married together, and their relationship is very strong."
"Once Your Majesty touches the Zheng family in Xingyang, he will touch several other families, and even the entire Shandong gentry."
At this moment, an old man wearing Duan Gua came in: "I just got the news that the Great Court Meeting is over."
"Today I really learned a lot. I heard that half of the officials did not go to court to demonstrate to His Majesty!"
Everyone: "..."
The old man continued: "Moreover, the masters of Chang'an City brought their students to protest and were kneeling at the gate of the imperial city. They seemed to be asking His Majesty to release the Zheng family and other members of the family."
"Aren't they helping the emperor to do evil? These people are really shameless. The third prince was killed by them, and His Majesty was so aggrieved that he didn't say anything. Why are they going to threaten His Majesty?"
Another person slapped the table and yelled indignantly.
"Let's go and have a look. Let's see those shameless people."
In fact, the people who said these words in the restaurant were not ordinary people, but the "Eight Great King Kongs" of the King of Shu.
Si Huaijin forced Hai Zhu to tell the truth, and Ba Da Jingang felt that as a member of King Shu's team, how could he not do something?
Now that everyone is taking a break, the salary can’t be in vain!
So the Eight Great Vajras held a secret meeting, ready to add fuel to the matter and make the fire burn even brighter.
Those stupid scholars have read the books into their stomachs, but they still dare to take their students to force them to have an abortion?
There are also those court officials who hold the court and eat the court, but they are the lackeys of the Qiwang family of the five surnames.
Bastards, do they deserve to be called scholars?
What is a scholar?
Scholars should have great ambitions and serve the country and the people.
Scholars carry their heads on their shoulders, behave appropriately, walk the right path, and have the backbone to fight all evil forces to the end.
Si Huaijin was dressed in Duan Gua, playing the role of a small vendor, doing his best to enhance the atmosphere, and finally resonated with the guests in the teahouse.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he led the entire teahouse to teach those bastards a lesson at the gate of the imperial city.
He even prepared rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves for everyone.
At this moment, each of the Eight Great Vajras and Haizhu's people came to the imperial city with a group of people.
Wei Zheng was frightened to death by Li Shimin's words "Behead".
After surviving the disaster, he quickly ran to the gate of the imperial city to persuade the officials and concubines.
Let them take the students away quickly, otherwise a disaster will be imminent.
But these people are very stubborn, and they are determined to fight to the end.
If Your Majesty does not let go of the innocent people captured, they will not leave.
It's a pity that they are just cannon fodder in the hands of Qiwang. Who the hell cares about your life or death?
If you have been deceived and don’t know it, you have read this book in vain!
"Teacher, I beg you as a student, please leave immediately. If you offend His Majesty, he will kill you."
The teacher Wei Zheng mentioned was the Shandong scholar Liu Shishi.
This person had a pretty good reputation. He was very successful in the study of the Four Books and Five Classics. He taught many students. Wei Zheng was once beholden to this person.
"Your Majesty lost his son. Everyone sympathizes with this matter."
"But why did Your Majesty want to wrongly accuse others? They just went to worship his son and were arrested by the Ministry of Punishment. Why does the Tang Dynasty need laws?"
"This is the behavior of a tyrant!"
"Xuancheng, you have changed. You became an official and became a servant, but you have forgotten the original intention of becoming an official. I often heard about your admonitions to His Majesty in the past few years... I didn't expect you..."
"From now on, the friendship between you and me as teacher and student will be cut off. Don't mention that I am your mentor again after you leave!"
"Teacher, you..."
Wei Zheng knelt in front of the teacher, tears streaming down his face.
The teacher actually wanted to sever ties with him!
At this time, the people of Chang'an City appeared in the distance, a dense mass of darkness.
The soldiers guarding the gate immediately drew their swords, moved out the horse-blocking stakes and other defensive items, and arranged their spears in a row.
If anyone dares to attack, they don't mind giving these people a ride.
What the gatekeepers didn't expect was that tens of thousands of people rushed to the gate of the imperial city, then stopped, and someone shouted.
"These people are the accomplices who killed the third prince."
"Smash them to death..."
"Avenge the third prince..."
Suddenly, rotten eggs, random vegetable leaves, and even cow dung and dog excrement were all thrown at the scholars and officials kneeling on the ground.
Bang bang bang...
Originally, these officials and scholars were quite proud.
Because they saw many people coming behind them, they must have come to help them, and together with them, they begged His Majesty to let those innocent people go.
But they thought wrong, and what greeted them was a severe beating.
Thousands of people threw things casually, which directly hit these people and made them miserable.
Some scholars were even knocked unconscious because ruthless people threw stones directly.
In panic, Wei Zheng pulled the teacher and wanted to run away, but the teacher was determined and would rather die here than leave.
Wei Zheng cried anxiously, Damn it, if you are beaten to death by the people, your death will be in vain.
Because it is impossible for Your Majesty to punish so many people.
It was obvious that these people were led here by someone, and they were what His Majesty wanted to see most.
Bang bang bang!
Wei Zheng covered his face with his sleeves and lay on the ground.
I only felt a burning pain in my back and butt.
And he seemed to be buried under rotten vegetable leaves.
After the people had thrown away the rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, he got up.
The scholars and officials who looked proud just now were now running, crawling, vomiting, and fainting...
But his teacher, Master Liu, was still kneeling on the ground, half of his body was submerged in rotten vegetable leaves, there were several big bumps on his head, and his eyes were swollen.
"Teacher, teacher...are you okay?"
Mr. Liu's whole body was trembling, and he couldn't figure it out.
He came to ask for orders for the people, but he was beaten by the people, and he was beaten with rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves.
His lifelong reputation was ruined here.
But why is this happening?
"I..."
Snapped……
After a crisp sound, Wei Zheng saw a piece of shit on his teacher's face.
This is not dog shit, nor is it cow dung, it seems to be...
Everyone was also stunned and looked towards the place where the shit flew from.
I saw a middle-aged woman holding up her child's pants, and a young man next to her with yellow stuff on her hands!
The sentiment is that this young man finished throwing away the things he brought. He was not satisfied with throwing away. When he saw the child's poop, he threw it away.
vomit……
Everyone watched this scene and finally couldn't bear it any longer and all vomited.
Wei Zheng and the scholars next to him also had their stomachs churning.
In addition, everyone threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves. The smell was mixed together, and they immediately fell to the ground and retched, almost vomiting out the gall.
"They are not scholars, they are Zheng's lackeys."
"Yes, they are not humans, they are animals, and they are accomplices in killing the King of Shu."
"Kill them and avenge the King of Shu..."
The common people were not satisfied. Someone yelled, and they immediately got into chaos again, threatening to kill these Zheng family's lackeys.
