Chapter 230 Father, Your Majesty, I Request You to Abdicate 45
Time flies, Jingxing deals with ministers in the former dynasty, and gradually feels that his hair is getting thinner and thinner. Every time he visits Emperor Cheng'an, his eyes become more and more resentful. He can't help but deny himself, is he really suitable for the position of crown prince?
Outside the city, Meng An held a silver spear in his hand, staring at the restless generals opposite him, and sighed in his heart that what His Highness said was true. These arrogant and brave generals were really difficult to deal with. In recent days, it seemed that something had caused a serious commotion. In a few days, there might be bloodshed!!!
Fifteen, who had traveled day and night to the ancestral land of the Qin Dynasty, looked at the lush vegetation in front of him and twitched his mouth. Is this normal? ! Is this the height that grass can grow normally? He rubbed his eyes.
When he noticed a huge cat lying in the grass ready to hunt, his mind went blank. He looked around and fled in a hurry while the giant cat was not noticing.
Emperor Cheng'an only woke up near the end of the year, but he could actually hear noises from the outside world. Jingxing ultimately disappointed him.
"Are you being chased by a ghost?" Jiuli paused in cracking the walnuts and asked calmly, "Why are you in such a mess?"
"Your Highness, there has been something strange in the ancestral land. The big cat is more than ten feet long." Fifteen's eyes were still filled with fear. According to his observation, the big cat could not even eat two people. This meant that there were only tomb keepers in the ancestral land and no one else. It was simply unbelievable.
"It's okay, everything is under control." Jiuli said with a smile.
Fifteen couldn't hide his fear. He would never go a second time!
The next day, at the court meeting, all the ministers entered the hall holding tablets in their hands, with their eyes looking at their noses and their noses looking at their hearts, all with respectful expressions, without any mistakes.
However, there were hidden sharp edges in the words, making it difficult to find fault with them. Jingxing listened to the whole argument with his forehead propped up.
There was a faint smile on his face, with a bit of pity. These people probably didn't know that their father had already awakened.
"You are good at speaking. What are you talking about? Tell me." Emperor Cheng'an, who had been standing outside the hall for a long time, walked into the hall with a calm tone, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
The minister who had just spoken turned pale and his hands trembled. His Majesty was known for his iron-blooded cruelty. His Highness might not have heard what he said, but His Majesty must have been angry. His whole family might not be safe! Kneel down and apologize quickly.
"Your son pays respect to the emperor." Jing Xing stood up from the chair in front of him on the left and walked forward quickly. He finally understood what his father was thinking. These ministers just needed to be punished. How could they be obedient if they were not punished? He felt a little guilty for often contradicting Emperor Cheng'an before.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." The ministers saluted and saw the figure behind Emperor Cheng'an, and then said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Prince of Yan."
Emperor Cheng'an let his ministers kneel on the ground, strode to the dragon throne and sat down, facing his ministers with a cold and solemn expression.
"I'm curious. Where were you just talking about? Please continue." He raised his hand to support his forehead, looking a little tired.
"Your Majesty, I..." There was a death wish in his eyes! He knew that he was finished and his family was implicated! "Please punish me, Your Majesty."
"The prince is here to speak." Emperor Cheng'an ignored what the man said. How could he be such a bloodthirsty person? Drink some medicinal tea.
"I ask my son to lift the martial law of the Imperial City Guards." Jing Xing added fuel to the fire, his eyes full of cunning. Of course, it was not for any other reason, after all, that was the truth!
"Oh? So?" His eyes swept over the ministers with a deep look. He didn't expect that the ministers who were as obedient as rabbits in front of him would become guys who take advantage of their seniority in front of Jingxing!
Li Xianmo gave his people a look without saying a word. It was obvious that His Majesty's current situation was not right. The best strategy was to wait and see. It would be bad if he was sacrificed. The reason he could get the position of Prime Minister was because of his caution!
"Your Majesty is right." Someone on the right stood up and responded.
"Where are the Silver Armor Guards?" Emperor Cheng'an's eyes turned cold.
"Your Majesty!" Meng Yan pushed open the door, his face full of surprise.
"Drag them out and beat them to death. All ten clans, men and women, will be exiled to Xiluo County and will not be pardoned even if pardoned." His tone was firm and left no room for doubt.
"Yes." The two men walked in from outside the palace and bowed in response, dragging the minister away by one of his legs, with a cold light in their eyes. Your Majesty swept across the world and established the Great Qin, and was excellent in both civil and military affairs. Why does he need these to comment on your Majesty's actions? You don't know how to respect me!
"If I have to handle all matters personally, then what's the point of keeping useless people like you?" Emperor Cheng'an threw the memorials on the table to the ministers, his voice full of murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Li Xian knelt quickly.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." The ministers knelt down one after another like dominoes, feeling even more uneasy and full of a sense of crisis.
"Calm down? There is no need to submit this letter of greeting!" The emperor's words were full of threats. When he saw Jingxing, he decided to discuss with him in private. There was no suspense about making Lin'an the emperor.
"Yes." All the ministers responded in unison, very obediently, fearing that they would be the next to be exiled.
"From now on, Prince Yan will attend court and govern the country." Emperor Cheng'an knew that time was running out and he had to clear all obstacles for Lin'an within a limited time. There was no need to keep him if he had no use!
"Your Majesty, please think twice. The Prince of Yan is a girl. How can she attend court? Isn't that confusing righteousness and deceit? How can this be a disgrace?" Someone raised an objection, speaking very loudly for fear that Emperor Cheng'an couldn't hear clearly.
After saying this, the civil officials headed by Li Xian and the military officers headed by Meng Yan all cast sympathetic eyes at the man. Doesn't this man know that His Majesty has changed his mind? What a poor fellow!
"Do you have any objections?" Emperor Cheng'an looked at the whole audience with sharp eyes, and his voice was cold but even a little gentle.
"I will obey your majesty's order without any objection." The ministers hurriedly replied. How dare they object? Could it be that they think their heads are too secure? Besides, the world belongs to the Huangfu family after all!
"Drag him out of the palace, exile his entire clan, and never pardon him." Emperor Cheng'an suddenly felt that a beating was too light a punishment! It would be better to send him to the country of Fuqiang to open up wasteland! He could also make more contributions to the Qin Dynasty!
Hearing this, the kneeling ministers looked at Li Xian with gratitude. The Prime Minister was really a good man! He even reminded them not to offend His Majesty.
"That's great. Let's adjourn the court." Emperor Cheng'an's body swayed. Su Qin hurriedly stepped forward to support Emperor Cheng'an and walked to the back of the hall.
"Congratulations, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan." As soon as the words came out, the Prince of Yan and the Crown Prince quickly chased in the direction where Emperor Cheng'an left.
Entering the winter warm room of Jianzhang Palace, Emperor Cheng'an was leaning on the soft couch by the window, his face as pale as paper. He no longer had the majesty and coldness he had just now, like a porcelain doll that would break if touched. There were a few more white hairs on his head. Su Qin was full of worry.
"Call the imperial physician." Jiuli ordered the eunuch outside the house.
"No need to summon the imperial physician. I know what's going on." Emperor Cheng'an looked at Jiuli and Jingxing lovingly, "In the future, you two need to support each other. As for the ministers, there are plenty of them."
There was something else in his words. Jing Xing looked at him carefully. He had never seen his father so fragile. As for what Emperor Cheng'an said, he didn't take it to heart at all. At this moment, he just wanted to be a child who needed his father. He had no time to care about anything else.
"Father will surely be safe." The two said in unison, the difference being that Jingxing's words were filled with hopes that Emperor Cheng'an would hold on for a little longer, while Jiuli was certain.
"Take the Lin'an Military Department's arrangement for the soldiers and read it. Report the results to me tomorrow." He said solemnly and encouragingly, "Father believes that Lin'an will do a good job."
"Yes." He stood up and returned to the palace with a pile of memorials.
Jing Xing stayed there until midnight. He didn't know what they talked about specifically. He only knew that the Moge guards besieged the Jianzhang Palace until dawn. When Jing Xing came out, his eyes were slightly red and his aura was very different.
