The traitorous minister who sells his teacher for glory (19) (treacherous minister or bears the burden of humiliation? (two...)

The emperor sitting above was taken aback for a moment, then furious, stood up and scolded: "Ji Changze!! You are trying to rebel!"

--boom!

A sharp arrow almost wiped his ears and pierced the wall behind him.

One more point, it fell on the face.

The emperor stiffened, watching Ji Changze retract his bow, shook his aching hand because of his injury, and smiled, still respecting him:

"As soon as the minister was injured, his arrow technique was a little inaccurate. Your Majesty still sits and listens to the minister, lest the minister suffers such a bad impression and his hand shakes and hurts the dragon's body."

"You, you..." His heart was filled with great anger and frustration, but he could only sit down to save his life.

In an instant, the situation was in the hands of Ji Changze.

That was obviously a literati, but he obtained the military power by pretending to be poor, and also received the support of these military powers. So grandiosely, under the sight of the Manchus, he led his soldiers into the main hall of the upper court.

It can be said that everyone present has never seen such a simple and rude rebellion.

All the civil and military officials are still standing here.

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor did not dare to move rashly. His reason came up, and his expectant eyes were cast on the courtiers standing underneath.

It stands to reason that the courtiers present should come out and scold Ji Changze for such an upright conduct of such a rebellious and unconscionable thing, expressing his belief that he would rather die than surrender and Ji Changze's rebellious non-cooperation.

He was looking forward to this scene. If everyone is unwilling to give in, can Ji Changze kill all of them?

As a result, the emperor rekindled confidence in his heart, and waited hopefully for the courtiers below to speak out.

Courtier one: "――"

Courtier 2: "――"

Courtier Three: "――"

There was an awkward silence.

The emperor thought he was deaf, and when he realized that no one from the Manchu dynasty civil servants stood up and sprayed Ji Changze, his anger could almost drown the entire hall.

However, in his anger, he did not realize that this embarrassing situation was due to his own operation for many years. Those who really dared to face the power and made a sound were killed/relegated by him, and could leave a post in his hands. Yes, either the old fox or the timid.

How could they stand up in such a situation.

A few officials were a little uneasy under the emperor's angry eyes, but when they saw the old gods standing in front of the old people, they all felt relieved. They looked at their hearts, just as if they hadn't noticed the upper part. .

These people are unreliable, they can only rely on their cronies over there.

The emperor's sight fell on Zhou Ru again.

however--

At this moment, Zhou was still emotionally immersed in Ji Changze, but his tongue was pulled out by an invisible hand, and it looked like a newly born quail, standing with hands and feet bound in front of the soldiers who filled the hall.

Not to mention opening your mouth to "deliver justice" for the emperor, even the courage to open your mouth to beg for mercy might not be accumulated.

Ji Changze followed the emperor's direction, his gaze also fell on Zhou Ru, the corners of his lips curled up, with a smile but a smile: "Your Majesty is worried that the ministers will be disadvantageous to Lord Zhou? You are too worried, the court rules, don't hurt Colleagues, don't fight wantonly, how could Weichen break the rules."

Zhou Ru shivered with fright and was asking for mercy, but suddenly remembered that he had just shot an arrow at Ji Changze's only daughter. Although the arrow was blocked, can he still live according to Ji Changze's actions?

Ji Changze's attitude towards him is so contemptuous, he must also believe that he dare not resist.

If he killed Ji Changze at this moment... Wouldn't it be a great achievement to quell this chaos?

Anyway, Ji Changze won't be able to please him. It's better to just fight for it. He is so arrogant, he may not be unable to get it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ru slowly moved his hand to his waist, and while Ji Changze turned his back to him, he suddenly pulled off his belt, grabbed one side with one hand, and slipped toward the neck of the man in front of him.

It should be foolproof.

But Ji Changze seemed to have eyes behind him. He turned around almost immediately when he violent. He saw only a sharp edge in front of him. The next second, there was a sweetness in his throat.

--boom!

Zhou Ru fell to the ground, covering the neck that was constantly overflowing with blood with his hands, his body twitched a few times and there was no movement. After his hands were weakly dropped, he penetrated his neck and only revealed a dagger with a handle outside.

Master Ji watched him condescendingly, before he squatted down, pulled out the dagger, wiped it with a handkerchief, and smiled and looked up at the pale-faced emperor.

"Master Zhou knows that he is breaking the law, and the dynasty intends to murder his colleagues. Such a rebellious person will be dealt with by the Minister for His Majesty."

The emperor has been above authority all his life. At this moment, being treated so oppressed by Ji Changze, he could no longer restrain the anger in his heart, stood up angrily, and personally accused:

"Ji Changze! What on earth do you want to do!!!"

"Since I became the throne, I have been diligent and loving the people, the internal affairs are clear, the kindness and courtesy, the people of the world love me and respect me, and have never done any bad deeds. If you intend to rebel and want to replace me, then you are wrong! !"

"The princes from all over the world will never admit you, and the people under the world will only regard you as a chaser, and the civil and military officials will not do anything for you. Do you think you can control the imperial city if you have the military power? Even if you can succeed today, the most Only one month later, the princes will assemble a large army and approach the city. When the time comes, I will watch you fall to the ground! The whole door will be cut!"

"Ah."

The emperor's generous speech, Ji Changze listened, and sneered unceremoniously:

"Your Majesty is diligent and loving the people, benevolent and courteous?"

The irony in these words can be heard by anyone.

He stood in the middle of the hall and said loudly:

"In the third year of Yuanshun, an envoy doctor named Mei Huan played, saying that your majesty should not be extravagant and build houses with gold and silver for fun. Your majesty should accept advice from the court and humbly rectify. Seven days later, Mei Huan died violently. ."

"In the four years of Yuanshun, your majesty personally conquered, chasing the enemy country all the way to Hegu, and smashing the three places in Huzhou for our dynasty. The old general Zhou Wu who has worked hard to persuade your majesty, saying that the poor will not chase them, fearing fraud, your majesty He insisted on going his own way, led his troops into Crane Valley, and fell into the trap of the enemy's country. 30,000 soldiers live only two thousand."

The emperor changed his face suddenly, and his gaze looking at Ji Changze could hardly wait to bite him to death: "Shut up!!!"

Ji Changze didn't even look at him at all, just continued to say:

"After returning to the camp, His Majesty ordered Zhou Wu to advance greedily and force his troops into Crane City, executed on the spot, and exiled the whole family."

"This! This is your majesty's diligence and kindness!"

The surroundings were surprisingly quiet, but the faces of all the officials were full of shock, and their gazes passed over the soldiers who surrounded the entire hall, and landed on the face of the emperor sitting on the dragon chair in disbelief.

Zhou Wu fought many victories for the Wen Dynasty, and his execution on that day made many people feel that it was a pity. Anyway, we should look at his past merits and spare his life.

But never thought that the veteran general who had been a soldier in his life had actually died of injustice.

They looked at the master of this country, but only saw the emperor trembling all over, his eyes red, and he couldn't refute it.

Ji Changze continues:

"In the fifth year of Yuanshun, His Majesty visited a woman with a husband's family in a private visit. He took a woman into the harem and was named a talented person. This is nothing, but it happened that the talented husband was alive and kicking three days later. ] The fire did not leave a living mouth. Naturally, it also included the woman's biological son."

"After the woman learned about it, she intended to assassinate her. After being arrested, she went around preaching that her majesty had taken his wife."

The things that had been concealed were revealed one by one in front of so many people, and the emperor was already on the verge of collapse.

He stood up suddenly, swept the pen and ink on the table in front of him, accompanied by the sound of things falling, and when he:

"I told you to silence!!!"

Ji Changze stood steadily, without blinking his eyes, but still spoke these "old past events" in a faint tone.

"On that day, a hundred soldiers and 30 palace slaves died. Your Majesty said that assassins were in the palace. I don't know if the family members of these palace slaves knew that their deaths would be your majesty's murder. I don't know how to think."

"This is your majesty's love for the people and courtesy."

"Shut up!!! I order you to shut up!!!"

Ji Changze really closed his mouth this time.

He took out a stack of paper from his arms, all of which were densely written with fine print.

Ji Changze made the front of these papers face the emperor, even if he knew that he was so far away, he couldn't see it at all: "Your Majesty didn't let the minister say, so the minister said, anyway, so much, and your throat hurts when you say it. Whoever was wronged, who was killed by poison, the official investigation is clear, and they are all written on this."

He took these papers full of words, slowly turned around to face the officials, and said loudly: "Everyone, come and see how our Majesty is [diligence and love for the people] and how [kindness and courtesy] !!!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the papers full of words were thrown into the sky, and then fell one after another.

Among the many papers, Mr. Ji wearing red official clothes was full of irony, and Zhou Ru's blood was under his feet.

He laughed wantonly: "Your Majesty! You have done so many bad things, and it's time to pay your debts!"

Chaozhong was extremely quiet, only the emperor's gasp.

Slowly, an official bent down and picked up a piece of paper.

Then, the second, the third...

"Master Liu was actually poisoned by His Majesty? His youngest son was still in a baby at the time!"

"His Majesty is so loyal, how did your majesty behave badly?"

"...When the food for disaster relief was stolen, it was your majesty that the thief called to catch the thief. How wronged are the soldiers who kept the food!"

More and more voices sounded in shock, and they all felt chills. They couldn't believe that this was actually made by His Majesty Wen Chao.

Hearing what they said, the emperor's eyes were about to split, he stood up suddenly, pointed at the former cronies underneath, and said angrily: "Ji Changze! Where are you so good?! Even if I make mistakes, you are not completely innocent! Even if you are sitting today, Get on this dragon chair, they will not assist you as always!!!"

This is, after all, Ji Changze is a treacherous minister, and everyone knows it.

Ji Changze laughed again.

The laughter was full of sarcasm. After a long laugh, he covered his aching belly and looked at the emperor above sarcastically:

"Your Majesty, are you really stupid or fake? If you are not, how do you dispel your majesty's vigilance against your ministers, how to win the trust of your majesty, how to become a cronies of your majesty, and how to check the past, how to get the current situation? What about your majesty's military power?"

He laughed enough, straightened up, and made a loud voice:

"Fun Jun is a worthy minister, if I really become a loyal and capable minister, can you believe me?"

"Can these past events be exposed to my eyes? Can you rest assured to hand these tens of thousands of horses into my hands?"

After listening to Ji Changze's words, the emperor's face was full of stunnedness, and something flashed through his mind, and he was firmly grasped.

His face turned gray, and he sat down on the dragon chair again limply: "I, I know, you know from the beginning, even if you are today, 16 years ago, when you came to me, you were already planning. ..."

"Pretends, all pretends, you have been pretending all these years, you have been able to act for 16 years for the sake of my throne, Wen Dynasty Jiangshan!"

Ji Changze looked at the emperor coldly, and when he was desperate, he suddenly said: "I never said that what I did today is for the throne."

Not for the throne?

Not only the emperor, but the hundreds of officials on the side were also shocked.

Not for the throne, then you brought so many soldiers up to tear up the emperor's face.

Isn't this the equivalent of putting in the bath water, taking off the clothes, but not going in the bath tub?

"In the seventeenth year of Yuanshun, His Majesty entered the court and was full of admiration. His Majesty gradually became jealous. Just when the enemy country came to attack, His Majesty pointed out that his Majesty sent troops to quell the war, but he deliberately dragged the grain and grass behind him. Your Highness still defeated the enemy country."

The emperor trembled and looked at Ji Changze incredulously.

He already knew what the former confidant who was dressed as a traitorous official and pretending to be beside him was going to say next.

Sure enough, Ji Changze continued:

"His Majesty's uncle is a great scholar of the dynasty, and now he is praised by the military commander. His Majesty can no longer tolerate him. He has passed a secret letter to the Highness, saying that there is a rebellion in the capital, and he is required to quickly move his troops back to Beijing to support him. But it was taken down immediately."

"The charge is: Bringing troops back to Beijing without authorization, with intent to rebel."

Ji Changze looked at the emperor above: "Your Majesty, if you feel that your minister's recollection is not right, you can refute the minister. It just so happens that the minister has not lost time in vain in the past sixteen years. The letter you sent to the majesty for help sixteen years ago. Letter, the minister also brought it."

He really took out a letter from his arms, unfolded it, and said to the emperor who was unbelievable in his eyes: "Thank you for not giving up looking for this letter, which wastes a lot of manpower. The minister is yours. Faithful, how can I not know about this?"

The evidence is as strong as a mountain, plus all the previous testimonies of "the emperor's murder of his courtiers", the emperor has nothing to say.

Seeing him like this, it is not clear to the hundred officials that what Ji Changze said is true.

The originally quiet court hall became noisy again.

"It was so."

"Where is your Majesty? His Majesty is his flesh and blood!"

"Even parents and children have to murder."

Listening to these voices, the emperor gritted his teeth and stared at Ji Changze, looking like he could eat his flesh and drink his blood.

What he bothered to bury, what he tried to cover, today, but all of it was revealed in a singular manner, how can he not hate it.

But no matter how much he hates, it doesn't prevent Ji Changze from continuing.

"What kind of character your Majesty is. Even if your Majesty is framed, there are still many people who do not believe that His Majesty really wants to rebel, and they intercede to testify. Many people have shown evidence that the Majesty received hypocrisy and came to the capital. Still bent on going its own way."

"At the time of the stalemate, the minister's master, the majesty's uncle, because the majesty was worried about the situation in the capital, the flying pigeon passed the letter back. It is quite influential among the literati. If his words are spread out, the condemnation of His Highness will have to be ignored."

Ji Changze's voice has gradually grown from the original dullness to some emotions, bringing anger and hatred: "So, our majesty thought of a good way to fake some correspondence between his majesty and my master, and frame me. The master planned a rebellion with His Highness. He is the uncle of His Highness. He said that he helped the Great Hall, but he also said it was past."

His tone was agitated, and the hatred almost rushed to the dragon chair:

"After my master was framed, he was filled with injustice! He tried his best to prove his innocence. He was loyal to Wen Dynasty and His Majesty. How can I think of it, it was his loyal Majesty who wanted to put him to death!!!"

Ji Changze's anger, and his red eyes at that moment, made anyone see that he already hated the emperor.

"Until the night before the Shang Dynasty, he was still thinking about meeting his Majesty, saying that he was innocent. His Majesty has really gone. How happy the Master is. He thought that his loyal Majesty would trust him, listen to his explanation, and be like him. Trust him with full confidence in your Majesty."

The emperor frowned.

No, he has never seen Master Ji Changze, a dying man, and saw what he did.

"But what did your majesty say to my master? Using the lives of my master's family as a threat, and using the lives of his mother, wife, daughter, and my disciple as a bargaining chip, he asked the master to admit that he had conspired to rebel with the master!!!"

"With the life of his closest relatives, to force him to become an unrighteous person, to kill his only sister's child, this is His Majesty's kindness and courtesy!!!"

"What can my master do?! What can he do?!!! You forced him to die, and you forced him to die by hitting a pillar. Even death can't prove his innocence!!"

emperor:"..."

"Wait... I never..."

"Shut up!!!"

Master Ji, who was already in his memories, obviously looked very uncomfortable with the emperor at this moment. When the other party spoke, he angrily intercepted his words, pointed at the emperor on the dragon chair, and said angrily:

"Before the master died, I had to worry about the Li family's trouble after his death, and I was afraid that my disciple would be dragged down by him!!"

"With blood as ink and clothes as paper, leave a letter to the jailer and give it to me. The letter tells me what your majesty has said and done, saying that he will not be able to frame the hall, and he will not be able to admit treason as your majesty wishes. I don't want to get involved with him. After he died, I confessed these sins of desire as a disciple! To protect my health and the health of the Li family's daughters!!"

"My master!! Full of economy, countless books, a generation of great scholars!! You should be a famous figure who has passed on through the ages, but you forcibly spilled dirty water and sewage and made him commit suicide with hatred!!! If it wasn't for him to leave me that night I don't even know about the next letter. Because of Master's most loyal Majesty, he was so dissatisfied that he died even death!!!"

These words, every word, weeping blood, this horrendous injustice 16 years ago just crawled out of the ground and unfolded in front of everyone.

No one can tell whether Ji Changze is laughing or crying now. All he knows is that this vicious villain who has been scolded for 16 years as a traitorous minister and stepped on the top of his teacher is now shining on the sun and is particularly dazzling.

Under the sun, he took out a letter, his eyes were already full of tears, and he pressed grief and said: "This is the letter. The minister touches it every day, the words are blurred, but the content is remembered by the minister. , Your Majesty! You framed Zhongliang and died for your own desires at the expense of your loyal ministers. In the past 16 years, how can your ministers tolerate you through the day and night!"

At this moment, the accused emperor was still thinking of shirking: "I have never seen Li Qing..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted roughly by Ji Changze:

"Enough!!! At this moment!! Are you still thinking about deceiving the world?!!!"

He took a deep breath, as if to calm down his emotions a little: "Sixteen years ago, when he received the letter, the minister did not sleep at night, and the minister could not figure it out. Your Majesty is the lord of the Wen Dynasty, why do you still use this? Use three abuses to humiliate a loyal official."

"The minister thought, if the minister asks your majesty to return the master's innocence, your majesty will definitely not agree. Therefore, the minister must stand in a high position, one person must be below ten thousand people, and he must have the ability to force his majesty to listen to the words of the minister. !!!"

This Master Ji, who was considered to be only flattering and flattering for a long time, relied on flattering and stepping on the top of his teacher sneered:

"The minister knows that your majesty keeps the ministers just to use the words of the ministers to publicize the master's [crime]. The more the ministers are ungrateful, the more human-faced and beast-hearted they are, and they use power for personal gain, corruption and pervert the law to reverse black and white, jealousy and jealousy. The more these ministers do, the more Everyone swears for helplessness, and the more your Majesty believes in his ministers."

For Baiguan, this day is destined to be a day of various ups and downs of mood.

Ji Changze...he actually pretended it.

In order to restore his master's name, he just pretended to be like that for 16 years, and carried the infamy for 16 years.

"You want a traitor, and a minister is a traitor! If you want to rely on your cronies, the minister will do nothing! If you want a knife, the minister is a knife!"

Master Ji obviously didn't care about these infamy. His red official uniform swung his cuffs slightly with the wind, and he looked at the emperor sharply:

"It's just that now, this knife is aimed at, it should be your majesty."

The emperor had already accepted the reality, and after knowing that Ji Changze's attack was because "he threatened Master Ji Changze and forced him to die", now he regained hope.

Although he did all the previous things, he really has never seen Master Li in prison.

"Ji Qing, I did not say to Master Li that he used his family as a threat. You are being instigated by others!"

Of course Ji Changze knew.

After all, the emperor went to see Master Li, and Master Li left these letters... all of them were made up by him.

But now, the emperor's misdeeds are ahead, no one believes that he is really innocent.

He only sneered: "Your Majesty, will anyone believe what you are saying now?"

"Just ask the civil and military officials to see if they believe it or not!!"

The emperor subconsciously looked at the courtiers standing underneath, and the eyes of the courtiers who came into contact with his sight flickered.

Obviously, they did not believe it.

"I really haven't, I haven't seen Li Qing, I haven't!!"

"I really don't have one!!!"

The emperor's voice filled with grievances sounded in the hall, but no one believed it.

The emperor didn't understand at this moment, they had already assumed that he had done this.

He lost his strength and numbly leaned on the dragon chair.

"I...really didn't..."

The courtiers standing below watched their noses and hearts:

At this time, your Majesty, don't pretend it.
