"Your Majesty, you are wise!"
The earth-shattering voice caused Zishou to feel a little disheartened.
Being a fatuous ruler…
It was really too difficult!
Until now, he still did not know…
Why did the originally good situation turn out like this?
These infuriating officials…
Why did they all find the perfect explanation for their foolish actions?
"Someone must have tricked me!"
Zishou cursed in his heart, but he pretended to be calm on the surface and smiled,"
"No need for formalities!"
After saying that…
She didn't want to stay in this sad place anymore…
He turned around and walked towards the palace.
The commoners gathered outside the palace gates were still kneeling there, shouting and begging the king to punish them.
Everyone felt guilty.
When he knew that a person would sacrifice his reputation for his own safety, allowing them to curse at him without explaining, and when the truth finally came to light…
What followed was a deep sense of guilt and gratitude.
When these things were done by a king, he would definitely receive the sincere support of these people!
The commoners gathered in front of the palace gate only dispersed at noon.
What happened in front of the palace gate today…
In an extremely short period of time.
Everyone in Zhaoge City knew about it.
In the Prime Minister's residence.
"Lord Shang, you really have divine foresight!”
"Who would have thought that the Marquis of Jizhou, Su Hu, would secretly seek refuge with the king.”
"Lord Shang's foresight is divine. We admire you!”
A group of officials gathered here and cupped their hands at Shang Rong.
Until today.
The things that Shang Rong analyzed a few days ago came true.
They could not help but sigh with emotion.
"Your Majesty…The depth of his scheming and the terror of it made people…I shudder!"
Shang Rong said with a smile as if he had just survived a disaster.
"That's right. Even if it was anyone else, they would not be able to do what Great King did when faced with such a chaotic situation…"
Yang Ren, who was at the side, continued with a smile,
"In the past, we thought that Your Majesty only knew brute force and did not know how to scheme. Now, it seems…I waited for the wrong person!"
" Your Majesty deliberately wrote a poem to blaspheme Goddess Nüwa in the Nuwa Palace. It seemed like it gave Wuzu a great opportunity, but Your Majesty secretly ordered the Ji Prefecture Marquis to hide outside the city and capture the poisoner, thus breaking Wuzu's conspiracy…"
" He even arranged for people to spread rumors in advance. When Wuzu's face was exposed, he ordered You Hun to explain the original intention of spreading the rumors, which earned the gratitude of the people…"
"Now, the people of Zhaoge belong to Your Majesty!”
"Wuzu's group was also wiped out from Zhaoge!”
"It can be said to be a model of killing two birds with one stone…"
Yang Ren sighed.
He explained the abnormal behavior of Tian Zi Shou one by one!
The other officials…
That was a myriad of emotions!
However…
As the son of the person involved, he did not know that he was actually so awesome.
Where did you go to reason with this?
"Lord Yang said something wrong…Your Majesty is killing two birds with one stone."
Shang Rong sighed faintly.
"Oh? Does Lord Shang think that the king still has a backup plan?”
The other officials looked at Shang Rong, who was sighing…
"Your Majesty, why did you order all the people and officials of Zhaoge to go and watch the witchcraft torture tomorrow?”
"This is the next step of the king's plan…"
"Kill the chicken to warn the monkeys!"
Shang Rong said with admiration,
"This is also a chance that the king has given us…"
"If we still don't repent after witnessing the miserable state of Wu Xing, then what happened to Wu Xing today will be the same as what will happen to us in the future!”
Shang Rong had perfectly explained why Zi Shou wanted to torture him in public.
"Your Majesty's actions are intended to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. Wouldn't it be a little too much? Cutting a person alive would probably cause discomfort among the commoners. At that time, the reputation that the king had painstakingly accumulated today would probably be affected…"
Yang Ren followed Shang Rong's words and voiced out the question in his heart.
If the punishment was too heavy, it would sometimes backfire!
"This is another layer of the king's intentions…"
"Now, rumors spread that the law does not apply to marquises, and the law does not punish nobles!”
"In my opinion, Your Majesty's action of cutting Wu Xing alive…It meant that the king wanted to change the law!”
Shang Rong said with admiration.
The more you delve into it, the more you can understand how terrifying the king is.
Every move had several layers of meaning.
In the past seven years…
He had truly transformed to a terrifying extent!
He was no longer that innocent youth from back then!
"Your Majesty's actions will probably cause conflict among the dukes and nobles…The nobles are not as stupid as Wuzu. I'm afraid that they won't let the king plot against them so easily. Pardon me for being blunt, but the king wants to change the law…The possibility of failure is extremely high!"
An official pondered for a moment and said.
The nobles had been in Yinshang for more than 500 years and had long been deeply rooted.
The businesses under his jurisdiction and the power he possessed could be said to have infiltrated all aspects of Yinshang.
Because of this, they would not easily fall for Zi Shou's trap.
"But if…What if the king gave them a chance to be fooled?”
Shang Rong glanced at the official, disappointment flashing in his eyes.
After experiencing Wuzu's incident, do you still think that the king is that innocent young man?
You're thinking too much!
"Could it be that the king has other plans? Lord Shang, please enlighten me!"
As expected, Shang Rong's words aroused the curiosity of everyone in the courtyard.
They wanted to know how the king would plot against the nobles.
"Have you not heard that a few days ago…Did the imperial court order that the sowing season would be postponed by two months?”
Shang Rong smiled mysteriously.
"We have naturally heard of this matter, but this... What's his connection with the nobles?"
Someone asked in puzzlement.
Delaying the sowing season would affect the people, right?
What did this have to do with the nobles?
"Which party owns the most land in Chaoge?”
" Nobles in Zhaoge City!"
" Then let me ask you another question. The reason why the noble family's business can penetrate all aspects of Zhaoge is that…What was the reason for the common people to maintain reverence for him?”
"It's because the nobles control the land. In other words, it's because the nobles control the food!”
"This is also the reason why the nobles can maintain their transcendental status!”
Shang Rong's words caused the officials to ponder.
"Therefore, if the sowing season is delayed and this year's harvest is reduced, then the nobles…Would he lose the greatest guarantee of his transcendental status?”
"Based on this, nobles…Can you still sit still?"
Shang Rong said faintly.
！！！
After everyone in the courtyard heard this, horror appeared on their faces.
Your Majesty...
How could he be so far-sighted?
"Great King, this is truly terrifying…"
Someone sighed with lingering fear.
...
In the harem.
Zi Shou naturally didn't know about Shang Rong's words.
If he knew, Wu Xing might not be on the list of people to be skinned alive tomorrow.
'Motherf * cker…'
You really know how to imagine!
At this moment, while Zishou was filled with frustration...
He even thought that he could be saved!
