"Your Majesty, have you ever massacred a city?"
"Never!"
"Have you ever killed a meritorious minister?"
"Never!"
"Have you exterminated all the nobles of the Six Nations?"
"Never!"
"Then how would His Majesty dare to say that you are not merciful? How dare you say that you're not soft-hearted?"
"I'm a little confused! Could it be that I'm really too merciful?"
"Yes, His Majesty's biggest problem is that he is too merciful! If this problem did not change, Great Qin would perish!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The court was silent.
-
Time went back to 15 minutes ago!
Thirty-five years after the first emperor.
Xianyang Palace, Qilin Palace.
The First Emperor, Wang Hu, was sitting on the dragon throne in his black and gold imperial robe.
The ministers stood on both sides.
" The world has just settled down," a scholarly young man in front said loudly." The people in the remote areas have yet to submit. The Confucian scholars are all reading and imitating Confucius 'words.”
"Now, Your Majesty is using harsh criminal laws to deal with them. I'm worried that the world will be unstable because of this. I hope Your Majesty will understand."
Wang Hu's expression darkened as he spoke.
Wang Hu had an unusual obsession with the pursuit of longevity.
However, some time ago.
The warlocks Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng, who were originally looking for the longevity medicine for Wang Hu, could not find the longevity medicine.
They actually mocked each other, criticized Wang Hu, and spread Wang Hu's ruthlessness everywhere, and fled because of it.
For this reason, the First Emperor arrested more than 460 alchemists related to Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng.
Today, the Imperial Court was here to discuss how to deal with this matter.
Although it was a discussion, Wang Hu had already decided to kill these 460 people. He was just asking symbolically.
All the officials in the court were experienced and naturally understood Wang Hu's thoughts.
When Wang Hu was furious, no one went back to touch his eyebrows.
However, there was one person who was different.
It was the person who spoke.
The person who spoke was Wang Hu's eldest son, Fu Su.
He was the only one who dared to remonstrate with Wang Hu when he was already furious.
Fusu, who was heavily influenced by Confucianism, was full of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith.
How could a country only have benevolence and righteousness?
Especially at this time, the Qin Country had the remnants of the six countries ready to move while the Xiongnu and Bai Yue were eyeing them covetously.
You want to be merciful and expect the other party to put down his butcher knife?
Moreover, he was killing necromancers!
Even his own son didn't understand him!
Wang Hu's heart chilled. He suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at the officials.
However, at this moment, the confrontation between father and son actually made all the civil and military officials in the court not stand up for a moment.
They were all old foxes.
Although he knew that these people deserved to be killed, such a brutal thing was not something that scholars should persuade.
Who didn't want to leave a good reputation for themselves?
In any case, he still had to be killed. First Emperor, you were already tyrannical to begin with, so it wouldn't matter if you were a little more tyrannical.
Wang Hu, who already knew Fu Su's character, snorted coldly. Suddenly, he saw an extremely handsome youth in the court squinting his eyes.
Immediately, he was furious and said coldly,"Tian Lu, you are about the same age as Fu Su. Do you think so too? Do you also think that I was wrong to kill these necromancers?”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Xiao Huang, who was sitting in the front row, felt his heart skip a beat. He was curious why His Majesty was called Tian Lu.
However, when she turned around, she saw Tian Lu's hazy eyes.
His heart instantly turned cold, and he repeatedly winked at Tian Lu.
The other ministers were gloating and ignoring all kinds of expressions on their faces.
The person Wang Hu had named was Xiao Huang's only son, Tian Lu.
However, even though Tian Lu had a handsome face, he was a famous silkpants of Great Qin.
Relying on Xiao Huang's identity, he could be said to have committed all kinds of evil.
Tian Lu had teased countless young girls and women in Xianyang City.
Many people were furious but did not dare to say anything!
As for being able to enter the Imperial Court, it was only because of his relationship with Xiao Huang.
Just like that, he stood at the edge.
He was just a small official. He was simply useless.
And now, he was actually in a daze in the court.
It was when Wang Hu was about to explode.
If he didn't give a good answer, he would be completely disappointed.
Tian Lu was not Fu Su. He was Wang Hu's son.
If he didn't give a good answer, Wang Hu, who was currently on the cusp, might use him as an example.
When Tian Lu heard Wang Hu's question, he could not help but be stunned.
Recalling Wang Hu's question, he subconsciously said,""No, Prince Fusu was wrong, but His Majesty was even more wrong!”
When Tian Lu said the first sentence, Wang Hu's expression improved slightly.
Although Tian Lu had a bad reputation, at least he knew what he wanted to hear.
However, when he heard that it was not enough.
Wang Hu's heart skipped a beat. Was he prepared to criticize me?
And Wang Hu's guess was right. The next sentence shifted to him.
Xiao Huang was even more nervous.
Hearing Tian Lu's words, Xiao Huang was startled.
He immediately cupped his hands and said," Your Majesty, my son fell recently and hit his head. His thoughts are a little chaotic. Please punish him lightly!"”
Under such circumstances, he could still stand up for Tian Lu without caring about himself.
It could be seen how much Xiao Huang doted on his son.
However, his f * cking brain had been touched. His brain was already filled with dirty things.
He was not a good person either.
From the looks of it, it didn't feel like he had been touched. It was obvious that he was courting death!
Ye Wen, Meng Yi, and the other generals were gloating.
The generals and civil officials were two different factions.
He had long been unhappy with this hypocritical little old man and his silkpants son.
Now, the opportunity had come.
Tian Lu actually dared to offend His Majesty like this. Even if he didn't die, he would be skinned alive.
Wang Hu snorted coldly. He wouldn't kill Tian Lu just because of a sentence.
After all, the other party was the only son of his beloved minister, Xiao Huang.
But as an emperor, if he didn't do anything after being offended, he wouldn't have the dignity of an emperor.
Hence, Wang Hu did not look at Xiao Huang. Instead, he looked at Tian Lu and said coldly,""You said I was wrong?"
"What a big mistake. Then tell me what I did wrong?”
"If you can't explain yourself today, even if you're Minister Li's only son, I'll still punish you for disrespect.”
Tian Lu actually regretted it the moment he finished speaking.
This wasn't the future generations thousands of years later. This was a feudal society.
Wang Hu was the heavens!
He actually said what he thought in his heart just like that and even said that Wang Hu was wrong. It was simply fatal!
Just as Tian Lu's expression had already changed to one of apprehension.
A mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
"Detected that the host risked his life to contradict the First Emperor. He is a man of steel, specially bound to the Admoniker System!”
"Host, please complete your first advice. After you complete it, you will receive a novice gift pack!”
[Hint: The greater the influence of the advice, the greater the reward!]”
