Some objected, while others agreed.
The court soon started to quarrel.
As a big boss, Li Yan naturally couldn't go into battle without any protection. If there was anything, his underlings would help him settle it.
Moreover, Li Yan had just received the Emperor's reward, and he immediately opposed the Emperor arranging a position for Yu Qian. Wasn't that too shameless?
Li Yan still wanted to leave his name in history, so he naturally wouldn't do such a thing.
Besides, he didn't even need to step out. There were only two or three big and small cats left in the Qing Party. His underlings were numerous. Each of them could defeat the other party with a mouthful of saliva.
Not long after, the three censors who jumped out were drowned in saliva…
"Enough!"
Emperor Zhao Zheng finally spoke.
The moment Zhao Zheng spoke, the entire court fell silent.
"Zhen's words carry nine tripods. Since Yu Qian's matter has already been decreed, it naturally won't be changed.”
Zhao Zheng said as he swept his gaze across the officials.
At this moment, Li Yan looked at Zhao Zheng. The monarch and his subjects immediately met each other's eyes.
Zhao Zheng saw confusion and confusion in Li Yan's eyes. Li Yan probably couldn't figure out why the Emperor had changed so much!
Their eyes did not meet for long before Li Yan lowered his head.
The current Li Yan didn't have the power he had in the original novel, so he didn't dare to be too arrogant.
However, the moment Li Yan lowered his head, he gave his underling a look.
After receiving Li Yan's signal, an assistant minister stepped out again.
"The emperor didn't listen to our advice and was single-minded. This isn't what a wise ruler should do.”
When Zhao Zheng heard this, his face instantly darkened.
Unexpectedly, someone else continued," Lord Liu is right. Yu Qian is arrogant and despotic. He offended his superiors and disrespected his father. He is a traitor to the country. I ask Your Majesty to reflect on yourself and kill the traitor as soon as possible to correct the court. If Your Majesty does not agree, we would rather die on our knees here!”
"We would rather kneel and die here!"
One after another, officials began to respond to these people. They were all people from the strict party.
In an instant, more than ten people knelt on the ground, begging Zhao Zheng to retract his order.
Although these people were kneeling on the ground and talking to Zhao Zheng, their words were all forcing Zhao Zheng to change his mind.
If it was the previous fatuous ruler, seeing such a lineup, he might have compromised.
Zhao Zheng was different.
He had a stubborn personality. Once he made a decision, even if it was wrong, he would not change it easily.
The coercion of these officials had already made Zhao Zheng want to kill!
"You want to kneel to death? Alright, I will grant you your wish. However, don't kneel here and dirty my Xuanzheng Hall. All of you can go kneel outside the palace gates!”
"Left and right guards, bring these people to the palace gates and kneel. Don't give them a drop of water!" Zhao Zheng said coldly.”
Hearing Zhao Zheng's order, all the officials were dumbfounded!
This wasn't right!
When did the emperor become so tough?
Especially those officials who were kneeling down and "speaking up for justice", they were all panicking at this moment.
The Emperor seemed to be serious. What should he do?
Was he really going to kneel to death outside the palace gates?
Before these people could think further, a group of martial guards who had received the order rushed in and dragged all these officials outside.
Li Yan couldn't sit still anymore.
As the boss, if he couldn't protect his underlings, who would follow him in the future?
Li Yan stepped forward and said," Your Majesty, when Gaozu founded the country, he had set a law that no one would be punished for speaking. Although the words of the ministers are inappropriate, they are also for the sake of the country. I think that Your Majesty's punishment is too much. I hope Your Majesty will understand."”
However, Zhao Zheng sneered." Gaozu also said that officials are strictly forbidden to form cliques for personal gain. Their actions today are the same. I'm afraid they have long formed cliques. Today, they dare to coerce me to change the imperial edict.”
Li Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Zheng in surprise.
Since when did the fatuous ruler become so eloquent?
Although Zhao Zheng was suspected of falsely accusing them again, and there might not be any concrete evidence to prove that those people had formed a clique, the one who accused them was the Emperor, so Li Yan could not speak up to defend them.
Just as Li Yan was about to come up with a new excuse, Zhao Zheng suddenly stood up and said,"
"Zhen's decree will not change. If you have any objections, submit it in the form of a memorial. Zhen is tired and will withdraw from the court!”
After saying this, Zhao Zheng turned around and left, leaving Li Yan dumbfounded.
F * ck!
This emperor was really f * cking willful!
