Li Rui continued to give orders. The executioners of the Ministry of Justice were sweating profusely, and none of them dared to raise their knives.
Everyone knew the identities of the seven people, so they didn't dare to make a move!
Li Rui turned around and picked up Ghost Head Blade.""Er 'Lai, hold him down!"
Dian Wei stepped forward and pressed Wu Zihua onto the chopping board.
Wu Zihua was terrified and cried,"Don't kill me, my aunt is…"
"Your aunt is Consort Wu Hui!"
Li Rui added,""Don't worry, I'll send her down to see you.”
Swoosh!
Ghost Head Blade fell, and blood splattered five feet into the air. A large head fell to the ground.
Li Rui was covered in blood. His white clothes turned into bloody clothes, and his face was covered in blood.
Cao Mengde handed over a white towel and said boldly,"My lord has the bearing of a mighty lord!"
"No hurry, chop these few before wiping.”
Li Rui raised his Ghost Head Blade.
Zhang Heluo was so scared that he spat out bile. He was scared to death before his head fell to the ground.
Swoosh!
The second head fell to the ground. The bluestone slab in front of the Ministry of Justice's main door looked like it had been splashed with blood. The blood was sticky and the stench was pungent.
Gao Lishi was frightened and did not dare to persuade him any further. He stood silently to the side.
Everyone could see that the Emperor of Liang had already decided to kill anyone who tried to stop him!
Seven heads fell to the ground in a row. Li Rui threw away the Ghost Head Blade and took Bai Jing from Cao Mengde's hand. He wiped his face and asked,""General Gao, why are you looking for me?”
" Ah, the Saint has summoned the Prince of Liang."
Gao Lishi came back to his senses and remembered the important matter.
Li Rui mounted his horse and rode straight to the Imperial Palace.
Gao Lishi wanted to say something but stopped. He really wanted to remind Li Rui to tidy up his clothes before going. How could he enter the palace to meet the Saint with his body covered in blood?
"Zilong, bring the seven heads!”Li Rui's words came from afar.
Zhao Yun rolled up the head with a wide cloth and carried it on his horse to chase after Li Rui.
In the Datong Hall of Xingqing Palace, the Saint sat at the head of the table with a gloomy expression.
The officials above the third rank gathered in His Highness and placed their memorials in front of Li Longji.
The memorial was erected high, blocking Li Longji's entire body.
Wu Luokong laid on the palace hall and cried,""Sage, you must uphold justice for me. The Prince of Liang barged into my Martial Palace, captured Zihua, and even beat me up.”
"Saint, the Liang Emperor's horse stepped into my residence and forcefully took away my son's ancestral hall. Please judge!”
Shi Zuo, a censor, knelt down in front of the hall.
Minister Li said angrily," Saint, the Liang Emperor broke into my mansion and kidnapped my son, He Luo. I don't know if he's dead or alive. Please make a decision!"”
"Sage…"
The Minister of War and Lin Jiulang were both impeached.
Outside the hall, Consort Wu Hui ran in crying and crawled into Li Longji's arms. Her tears flowed non-stop as she said,"Sage, what crime has Zihua committed? How can he be treated like this? How can he have a foothold in Chang 'an in the future?”
The ministers impeached Li Rui.
And Li Rui had just taken up the position of Minister of Justice, and it had only been half a day!
"This unfilial son!" Li Longji said angrily. How long had Gao Lishi been gone? Why hadn't he returned?”
"Saint, this old servant has returned!"
Gao Lishi hurried to the palace and said,"The Prince of Liang is waiting outside the palace!"”
"Get him in here!"
Li Longji glared at him.
Gao Lishi raised his head and shouted,"Pass the news! The Prince of Liang has entered the palace!"”
Li Rui calmly appeared at the palace door. His thin figure was only twelve years old, but it shocked the officials.
Li Rui was dressed in blood-red clothes, looking like a little god of death.
You can wear bloody clothes to the palace, which is regarded as a great disaster!
Bad luck!
This was offending the dragon's face!
"What happened?" Li Longji asked with a dark face.”
"Imperial Father need not worry. This blood is from others. Just now, seven people were killed and their clothes were stained.”
Li Rui smiled.
Li Longji snorted." I'm not asking about that. What happened to the injuries on the Right Prime Minister and the Imperial Uncle?"”
"I called."
Li Rui admitted generously.
There was no explanation.
Gao Lishi added,"Why did the Prince of Liang hit him?"”
"Lin Jiulang invited me to his house and humiliated me. He even ordered the Right Dawn Guard to kill me.”
Li Rui added,"As for the country's uncle, he protected the murderer and obstructed me from handling the case. He deserves to be beaten!"”
The first part of the sentence was still on the right track, but the latter part was completely off topic.
What did he mean by he deserved to be hit!
This was clearly willfulness!
Bang!
Li Longji slammed the dragon table in anger, and the memorials scattered. The ministers knelt down in horror and lowered their heads.
Only Li Rui stood proudly in the main hall, looking at Li Longji calmly.
The two of them glared at each other again.
"Right Prime Minister, Uncle, is what Rui 'er said true?" Li Longji said angrily.”
"Sage, this subject kindly invited Prince Liang to be a guest at your home. Prince Liang hit this subject the moment he met, this subject is wronged.”Lin Jiulang was furious.
Who would have thought that Li Rui would come up and make a countercharge?
Wu Luokong's breathing quickened, and his entire body hurt. One was beaten by Li Rui, and now he was angered.
"Sage, what crime does Zihua have?" he asked in a trembling voice.”
"Zihua has been obedient since she was young. She abides by etiquette and filial piety. How can she commit a crime?”Consort Wu Hui sobbed in his arms.
Without waiting for Li Longji to speak, Li Rui sneered,""Last August, Wu Zihua and the others gathered wine and set fire to seven houses in Linglong Lane. Two innocent children died in vain.”
"Is this true?"
Li Longji was furious.
"If it's true, let me chop her up!" Li Rui said expressionlessly.”
"Impudent!"
"If you dare to disrespect your elders again, I'll chop off your head!" Li Longji said angrily.”
"Forget it!"
Li Rui's words made Li Longji speechless for a long time.
This year, the old man was already 52 years old. He was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He took the memorial and threw it at Li Rui.
Li Rui rolled his eyes, raised his left hand, and said indifferently,""Zilong, throw it in!"
Zhao Zilong threw in a bloody cloth from outside the hall, which contained seven human heads.
Consort Wu Hui screamed and fainted from fright.
"My son…" Shi Zuo cried loudly and trembled.
"Prince Liang, you…"
The Minister of War and Minister Li, the Li Rui who had lost his son in his old age and wished he could swallow him alive.
"I've already killed them all!" Li Rui said indifferently.”
"My son drew it!"
Tears streamed down Wu Luokong's face.
Li Rui did not pity them at all. If he pitied them, who would pity the seven families of Ling Long Lane and the two innocent children who were burned to death?
To be honest, when Li Rui flipped through the dossier earlier, he saw the case involving the death of a child.
This completely aroused Li Rui's killing intent!
Li Longji was expressionless as he allowed Wu Luokong to cry. At this moment, he reflected the original appearance of an emperor, ruthless and unpredictable.
At this moment, no one knew what Li Longji was thinking!
But Cao Mengde, who was outside the hall, said calmly,"This time, the lord is fine!”
"The Sage is afraid that the princes will secretly collude with the officials. The Lord has beaten the Right Prime Minister, injured the Imperial Uncle, and offended all the officials of the three provinces and six ministries.”
Sima Yi analyzed softly.
Cao Mengde smiled faintly." The seven heads are the evidence. It proves that not only is there no friendship between the lord and the ministers, but there is also a deep hatred between them.”
"That's why the Sage hesitated and didn't dare to punish you. If you demote him, you won't have any power and will definitely be targeted by the officials.”
Sima Yi and Cao Cao were both shrewd people.
Outside the hall, he had predicted everything just by the sound.
Cao Mengde added,"If we don't punish them, it will be difficult to appease the ministers!”
"However, if we investigate thoroughly, none of these people will be able to get away with it.”
Sima Yi was guessing whether Li Rui would choose to retreat or advance!
