Chapter 279 Your Majesty, aren’t you afraid that the Sixth Prince will declare himself independent?
Chapter 279 Your Majesty, aren’t you afraid that the Sixth Prince will declare himself independent?
"this..."
Everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief.
This Duke of Chu County.
What kind of person is this? How dare he say such nonsense that the three ministers are plotting a rebellion?
Once these words are spoken, many people will be shocked.
At this moment, all the officials in the court wished there was a crack in the ground so that they could fit in and turn a deaf ear.
When the Grand Tutor, Grand Preceptor, and Grand Protector heard this, their faces stiffened slightly.
The three of them had a conversation last night.
It was unanimously agreed that this was the old Prince Qian's way of suppressing the Sixth Prince.
Unexpectedly, the old King Qian was just like Xiang Zhuang dancing with a sword, aiming at Pei Gong.
But does the old King Qian really dare to disregard the thousand-year-old rule of Daqian and directly and stubbornly attack the three of them?
If something happens to the three of them.
There will definitely be unrest in the court, and the Sixth Prince will even rebel directly in Jiangnan.
Is King Lao Qian prepared for this consequence?
The three dukes considered themselves quite familiar with the old Prince Qian, so they exchanged glances. The Grand Tutor stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, County Duke Chu has been convicted of various crimes, yet he has been recklessly accusing important officials of the court. Your Majesty, according to the law, strips him of his title of Duke and executes him in court!"
As soon as the Grand Tutor finished speaking, everyone immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
The three ministers' true intentions are revealed.
And judging by what the Grand Tutor said, it seemed that he was unwilling to even give the other party a chance to defend himself, as hundreds of ministers had reported him.
Just judge based on the proven guilt.
And just like the guy who just died, he was beaten to death on the spot.
The neutral officials immediately began to discuss among themselves in low voices. This completely refreshed their understanding of being an official after decades of experience.
After hearing this, Chu He sneered.
Is there conclusive evidence?
Just kidding, what bastard made up this story about him playing with his 80-year-old mother?
If he wants to play with him, he will only choose eighteen-year-olds.
Eighty years old?
Does he look like a perverted animal to you?
Of course, those warriors above the third rank are not counted, as they have a lifespan of several hundred years.
Eighty years old is just equivalent to eighteen years old, still young.
Chu He added secretly in his heart.
In the main hall, the old King Qian still had a gloomy face, as if he was thinking about something.
But everyone could clearly notice that the atmosphere in the hall was becoming increasingly heavy.
After a moment, the old Prince Qian swept his sharp eyes over everyone in the court, and then slowly said, "Since you have mentioned so many crimes of County Lord Chu, can you produce evidence?"
"Eunuch Li, according to Daqian law, what kind of crime is it to casually slander the current county magistrate?"
The officials who had just stood up couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts when they heard the cold words of the old King Qian, and secretly said that something was wrong.
In the middle of the night, when they were in a hurry, where could they go to collect evidence?
They were all fabricated at random based on the experience of previous censors.
I've made up hundreds of them, so it's impossible that none of them are correct, right?
A hint of trouble flashed in the eyes of the three officials, and the three of them quickly communicated with each other to discuss countermeasures.
The dragon energy is the strongest in the Daqian Palace.
Once Old King Qian insists on taking action here, even if a martial arts master comes, it will be difficult to escape.
Even if they had the life-saving means given by the Sixth Prince, it would be difficult for them to be effective.
Fortunately, they had already arranged for some important clansmen to go to Jiangnan last night.
When Eunuch Li heard the order, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and he sang out loud, "According to Article 24 of the Daqian Law, anyone who arbitrarily insults or fabricates facts to slander the Duke of Daqian County will be fined, with the consequences being confiscation of property and public beheading. In serious cases, he will be charged with conspiracy to rebel and the extermination of his entire clan!"
"Wow—"
When Eunuch Li spoke in such a cold tone, everyone in the court gasped.
Especially those ministers who had just reported the joy, their faces turned pale instantly, and several of them couldn't even stand steadily.
"Ji Changming, you are the head of the Ministry of Works. Since you have reported County Lord Chu for corruption, please show us the evidence!"
The old King Qian glanced coldly and asked an old man with gray hair on his temples.
"Your Majesty, your servant..." Ji Changming was suddenly panicked.
He quickly stood up and lowered his head, trying to speak several times but still couldn't get the words out.
He looked at the three officials beside him.
However, the three ministers also frowned at this time. What the old King Qian said was right. He was standing on the commanding heights.
"You can't tell it, right?" Old King Qian smiled coldly.
Then, he looked at the other ministers, "Jian Zishi, Wen Weimao...where are the rest of you? Bring out the evidence!"
All the ministers whose names were called felt their bodies weaken and they almost peed themselves on the spot out of fright.
It was really that the old King Qian's aura was too terrifying. He was like a ferocious beast that was about to devour someone, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura.
"Your Majesty... ......"
These ministers from various departments were all sweating profusely, but they all hesitated.
When the other neutral ministers saw this, they could no longer fail to understand what was going on.
The Three Dukes are good at this.
He actually thought of such a trick to force the old King Qian to kill someone, but the old King Qian turned around and tried to cut him in half.
While eating melons, everyone moved a little further away from the ministers who had just submitted a memorial to report Chu He.
So as to avoid being affected by the anger of the old King Qian.
Seeing this, the three ministers felt anxious. If they continued to be forced by the old King Qian, these ministers in the court would probably not be able to bear it any longer.
When the time comes, he will confess what the three of them had ordered him to do, including what happened in the court today.
It will become a laughing stock in the entire Daqian.
Even those monsters and ghosts would die of laughter after hearing it.
"Your Majesty, the ministers may not have had time to gather evidence. I believe your actions were inappropriate in this matter. I hope Your Majesty will consider your dedication to public service and deduct three years' salary as a warning, and forgive them this time."
"At the same time, we can also publicize the emperor's great grace to the people of the world!"
The Grand Tutor stepped forward, bowed, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Last night, my good friend, Minister of Justice Tan Zixuan, a high-ranking official in the court, was arrested late at night by County Magistrate Chu and his men. This is absolutely true. I hope Your Majesty can give an explanation to the ministers in the court and to the people of the world!"
"Otherwise, this incident will discourage the thousands of students in Daqian from serving their country."
"I'm afraid this will cause trouble!"
The Grand Tutor had a calm and logical expression, and he refused to mention the hundreds of pieces of evidence Chu He had just presented.
As for those defamatory evidences, they intend to handle them with caution.
At the same time, he vaguely mentioned that the three of them had high positions in the court and that there were thousands of students behind them.
I hope King Qian will show mercy.
"Oh, Grand Tutor, are you threatening me to stop dealing with these rebellious officials and traitors?"
The old Qian King spoke in a flat tone.
But when everyone heard it, they could clearly sense the rage within him.
Once it breaks out.
There will be corpses everywhere and blood will flow like rivers.
"I dare not. The Sixth Prince has submitted a memorial, and I hope Your Majesty will read it."
The Grand Tutor remained calm and bowed with his fists clasped.
He seemed to be completely confident.
"hehe..."
Old King Qian smiled but said nothing.
Are you using the rebellious son, Lao Liu, to threaten me?
But the show isn't over yet.
That kid can't just be left to watch the show.
Thinking of this, the old Qian Wang looked at Chu He who was enjoying the situation at the side and said, "County Lord Chu, since you are the victim of today's incident, please tell me what you think."
"Shouldn't these ministers be punished according to national law?"
