Wang En and Zhao Kaicheng also glanced at Gao Qiang at the same time, but they remained silent.
"Hahaha... Prime Minister Gao is right. As the emperor and a wise king, of course I will not cause chaos in the imperial court and no one in the world to govern. However, I have spent a lot of time investigating you, so I can't just forget it empty-handed. Otherwise, how can I save my face? So... for those whose names are mentioned below, I can give you two choices."
"First, you all come out to draw lots. I want to select ten people to serve as typical examples to strengthen the government."
As soon as Feng Linwen finished speaking, the whole hall fell into silence.
"You bastard, this is a national important matter, involving so many courtiers, how can it be such a child's play... you are a fool... you are a fool!" For a moment, some of the courtiers who were driven to panic began to loudly accuse Feng Lin, intending to arouse the anger of the crowd. , with the power of his ministers, threatened the king Feng Lin, and then stopped.
bass! bass! bass!
With the sharp blades raised, many Dongchang fans stood on the left and right holding knives, looking unkindly at those who took the lead in making noise.
"Second...!" Feng Linwen raised his second finger and used his own voice to drown out the noise.
"Let everyone vote secretly and select the five people with the most votes. They will be treated as examples... then choose! Whether to bet on luck or your usual character." Feng Linwen's face showed the mad emperor again. That iconic smile looks crazy and abnormal no matter how you look at it.
There is actually no difference between the two choices in the final analysis.
This was Feng Lin's method to kill chickens and scare monkeys, and it was also a vicious trick for him to divide the court and break this stagnant water.
Don't say anything, kill all the disobedient people in the court. There are many talented people in the world who want to get ahead, and some of them are officials.
Yes, this is the truth, but no matter what industry you are in, there are differences between novices and experienced people.
No matter how talented a person is, it will take some time to convert their talent into real execution ability. If a large number of important ministers were replaced throughout the entire Da Li, it would cause all aspects to fail. In this case, there would be no possibility of a safe transition.
The two choices given by Feng Linyi were to kill people and to kill people's hearts.
Giving them a choice is to make them mistakenly think that they have choices.
Just like a robber who blocks the road and threatens passers-by with either their money or their lives. If you only talk about robbing wealth, then most passers-by will want to run away. If you only talk about taking your life, then no matter what you say, you have to fight hard to resist. Given a seemingly choice, most people will subconsciously choose to settle the matter or take chances... completely forgetting to resist and escape.
Therefore, many times, some people kindly give you a choice, but they do not really give you a choice, but just make you forget to think, forget to resist, and forget that in addition, there will be Better ways out and better possibilities.
Looking at the aggrieved courtiers, but with their eyes averting each other, Feng Linyi pretended to nod at the robot clone Situ Liang.
So there were eunuchs on the left and right, holding trays, and on the left was a box of bamboo sticks, undoubtedly used for drawing lots.
On the right is a wooden box with pen and paper next to it.
"Those who want to draw lots stand on the left, those who want to vote stand on the right. The party with more people wins. I'll give you ten seconds to make your choice. If you're late, you won't be eligible to choose!" Feng Linwen deliberately sped up his speech. Create a sense of urgency.
At the same time, Situ Liang started counting.
The numbers decrease from ten to nine and then to eight, further enhancing the sense of urgency.
Forced by a double sense of urgency, one person moved, and then the entire hall turned into a mess.
After counting to ten, everyone was almost divided into two teams. These ministers, who usually looked sanctimonious, were holding their hats and clothes, and looked embarrassed. They were not necessarily any better than the gangsters on the street.
Looking at the ministers who were led by Feng Linyi, Wang En and Zhao Kaicheng's eyes became extremely gloomy. But they didn't know why, they didn't speak, and they seemed to have some scruples.
Feng Linwen smiled coldly.
Of course, these two guys would not be so honest, so they remained silent. That was all thanks to three old eunuchs from the Condensation Realm, who visited late at night to send warmth long before the court meeting began.
Before they thought of a way to counter Feng Linyi's trump card, they had no choice but to be honest in the face of threats.
What?
Why not just send the old eunuch to kill them and end it once and for all?
ha! If it were really as simple as killing people, then politics wouldn't be so complicated.
The five major fates are in a balanced situation. Feng Linyi can kill Zhao Kaicheng and Wang En, but he will definitely not be able to kill Huo Quyi and Cheng Penghai.
Without the checks and balances of Wang En and others, Huo Quyi and Cheng Penghai would become even more powerful. They would directly evade the imperial power from the Five Great Gu Ming and become a civil and military duo, despising... or even outlawing the imperial power.
Don't forget, Feng Linwen paid a high price to come to this world, promote the vest, and unlock skills, just by the way.
His most important purpose is to collect enough Emperor Dragon Qi, integrate it into his own Qi training technique, and unlock a higher level of Qi training.
And if he wants to obtain a large amount of the emperor's dragon energy, he must become a 'wise king' who holds real power and is loved by the people of the world.
As for Gao Qian... of course he was cooperating with Feng Linwen.
His arrogance and domineering were actually an illusion, which made the courtiers relax their vigilance, thinking that with Gao Qiang, the prime minister, standing in front of them to oppose the emperor, they didn't need to worry about anything at all. They only had to hide behind and beat the drum.
Unexpectedly, the flames of confrontation were lit in Gao Qiang, but when the fire really burned his body, the Prime Minister Gao retreated, looked on coldly, without saying a word, and directly attacked the ministers who did not have much defense. Tricked.
There is no doubt that the entire court meeting is a game that Feng Linwen has arranged a long time ago.
It was also a hole he dug.
Pick the soft persimmon... None of the five fortune-tellers is a soft persimmon.
But there are not only these five ministers in this court, right?
Regarding drawing lots, voting, and who to kill or arrest in the end, it was not Feng Linyi who had the final say.
In order to maintain balance, Feng Linwen will not touch the five core members who care about their lives, but those who are usually just outsiders... they will be in trouble.
When these people die or fall, the people Feng Linwen has chosen long ago will take over and become his core team. They will speak for him, the emperor who has lost power, in the court and execute his orders. Order.
His eyes became brighter and brighter. Feng Linwen looked around, as if counting the number of people, and then announced directly: "It seems that there are still more people who want to vote, so...just vote!"
Most of the ministers in the palace were filled with mixed emotions after hearing this.
There are five less unlucky people in voting than in drawing lots. This seems to be a good thing?
hehe!
Obviously, they didn't know that the so-called voting decision was the next step in Feng Lin's plan.
With only five quotas and five vacancies, how could Feng Linwen's appetite be satisfied.
It's just that in this way, the roots of the future break between the ministers were laid.
Looking at these courtiers who were digging their own graves without realizing it, Wang En closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
Zhao Kaicheng, on the other hand, turned to look at Feng Linhui, with a strange look in his eyes, like a laser, wishing to pierce Feng Linhuang all the way through.
