"Your Majesty, this old minister is not convinced either!
What did Yang Zaixing do to deserve such a generous reward from His Majesty?”
Following closely behind Li Bangyan, Minister Bai Shizhong also stood up.
When Bianliang City was broken, he was also on the road to escape south. He had only returned to Bianliang yesterday, but now he looked like a loyal minister filled with righteous indignation, very shameless.
"Your Majesty! The position of Great General has never been held since the founding of Great Song!
Even in the past dynasties, other than the hussars general, there was no one who could compare to the country protecting general!
How could he give Yang Zaixing, a martial artist, such a generous favor!”
Zhang Bangchang, who was the Great Song's Grand Slaughter, also stood up and objected resolutely. His saliva splashed everywhere.
"Your Majesty! This is against the ancestral system, please forgive me for not agreeing!”
Wu Min also stood up. The veins on her neck were bulging. She stood side by side with Li Bangyan and the others with a serious expression.
These people acted as if they did not see Emperor Zhao Heng's furious expression.
In fact, they were deliberately provoking Zhao Heng today!
This was because these people combined were enough to shake the Great Song Dynasty!
Moreover, they were all people who were promoted by Retired Emperor Zhao Ji.
He also supported the restoration of Retired Emperor Zhao Ji.
Therefore, they didn't care about Emperor Zhao Heng's anger.
In their hearts, as long as they opposed Zhao Heng's decision to confer Yang Zaixing the title, Zhao Heng would be the emperor in name only. Sooner or later, he would return the throne to the Retired Emperor.
Moreover, Li Bangyan was not the only prime minister in Great Song.
Minister Right Cheng Bai Shizhong, Taizai Zhang Bangchang, Canzhi Wu Min and others were all considered prime ministers and rulers.
The Great Song established this system on the basis of the three provinces and six departments to disperse the power of the prime minister and prevent the emergence of powerful ministers.
However, today, these few officials who usually fought for power had become one because of Yang Zaixing.
These people controlled a large number of civil officials, forming a huge civil servant group.
All the emperors of the Great Song had to consider their attitude!
It could even decide the dethronement of the Crown Prince and Empress!
In just a few breaths, all the civil officials in the court, except for Li Ruoshui and the few loyal officials who had been captured, stood out with Li Bangyan.
Everyone's faces were filled with excitement and vehemence as they objected. Their spittle almost drowned the entire court.
It was as if Yang Zaixing was a treacherous official who brought disaster to the country and the people.
"Ding dong! The host has just arrived at the Imperial Court and is unstable. The mission "Impetus the Imperial Court" has been triggered!
[Mission Requirements: Intimidating the officials, establishing the prestige of the Imperial Court, and establishing the prestige of the Great General of the Nation!]
[Mission Reward: Depending on mission completion.]”
Yang Zaixing, who was in the imperial court, sensed the mission issued by the system. He glanced at these people with a dignified and calm gaze, and the corners of his lips curled into a cold smile.
Looking at how these people were arguing for justice, those who did not know better would think that they were iron-willed loyal officials for the country and the people.
However, in reality, most of the people who were shouting here today were cowards who had fled south with their families or hid at home when Bianliang City fell.
At this moment, the expressions of the two ministers at the head of the hall, Retired Emperor Zhao Ji and Emperor Zhao Heng, were completely different.
Retired Emperor Zhao Ji had a mysterious smile on his face. He was very satisfied with what had happened in the court.
The anger on Emperor Zhao Heng's face could no longer be suppressed.
He knew that these people were not only against him conferring the title of Yang Zaixing, but also against him, the current emperor!
"Shut up!"
The young emperor, Zhao Heng, whose face was red with anger, suddenly stood up and lifted the Coiling Dragon's desk in front of all the officials.
"Bang bang!"
"Hualala!"
The coiling dragon desk carved out of red sandalwood fell down in an earth-shattering manner. The brush, ink, paper, inkstone, and jade seal on it were all scattered on the ground.
The entire Great Celebration Hall was instantly shocked into silence by this huge commotion.
Looking at Emperor Zhao Heng whose eyes had turned red, Li Bangyan and the others 'hearts suddenly thumped. Then, they looked at Retired Emperor Zhao Ji.
Although they were having a good time, they didn't expect Zhao Heng to lose his temper.
This was not an easy ending.
"Minister Yang has the merit of rebuilding the Great Song!
I've conferred him the title of Great General of the Country, so why do I need you to point fingers at him!
Are you all trying to force me to abdicate?”
Zhao Heng clenched his fists tightly and shouted angrily at Li Bangyan and the others.
Li Bangyan glanced at Retired Emperor Zhao Ji and saw the certainty in Zhao Ji's eyes.
At the same time, he saw the meaningful gazes of Zhao Gou, Grand Commandant Gao Qiu, and Tong Guan. His courage was instantly restored.
So what if Zhao Heng was angry?
He, Li Bangyan, had the secret support of the Retired Emperor!
King Kang, Zhao Gou, Grand Commandant Gao Qiu, Tong Guan, and the others also controlled a large number of troops!
At this moment, there were hundreds of thousands of elite troops in Bianliang City, including Tong Guan's Victory Army and Gao Qiu's Three Yamen Imperial Army!
If Zhao Heng was smarter, he would have abdicated long ago!
So Li Bangyan cleared his throat and continued to speak with a stiff neck,""We have no intention of forcing the abdication!
However, the ancestral system of the Great Song could not be changed!
If His Majesty insists on making Yang Zaixing the Great General of the Nation, then we will kneel here forever!”
Li Bangyan said and knelt down.
Zhao Heng's face instantly became even angrier."Li Bangyan, you still dare to say that you're not forcing the abdication!”
Behind Li Bangyan, Bai Shizhong, Zhang Bangchang, and the others looked at each other and started to move. They were about to kneel down.
Yang Zaixing saw all the reactions of these people.
Zhao Heng had treated him well and even flipped the table for him. Now that he was angered by these guys, Yang Zaixing would not sit idly by!
Moreover, Yang Zaixing still had the system mission to establish his prestige in the imperial court!
Yang Zaixing smiled coldly, shouted angrily, and moved.
He pulled out the General's Token Sword that Zhao Heng had given him and strode forward. The General's Sword flashed with a dazzling white light in the hall.
"Li Bangyan! His Majesty said three days ago that anyone who obstructed His Majesty's decree would be punished for deceiving the emperor!”
Yang Zaixing's shout immediately made everyone's ears buzz. Li Bangyan's mind went blank.
Before he could react, Yang Zaixing's General's Sword slashed at his neck.
A red light flashed in the hall.
Blood splattered three feet high!
Li Bangyan's head rolled down the hall and stopped at Yang Zaixing's feet!
The expression on his face was still as arrogant as before!
This scene instantly shocked all the officials in the court!
What did they see?
Prime Minister Li Bangyan had been killed by Yang Zaixing with a single strike!
And in front of all the officials, the Emperor, and Retired Emperor!
Thud.
At this moment, Li Bangyan's headless corpse finally fell down. His corpse was like a dead dog lying on the Daqing Palace Hall, bleeding ten steps!
Bai Shizhong and the others were shocked. They looked at Yang Zaixing with anger and fear!
