Guo Jiang was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he heard the empress's words.
This was because the empress's intention was already very clear. She didn't want to interfere in Li Jin Nian's matters.
In fact, Guo Jiang didn't misunderstand.
The empress's thoughts were very simple and pure.
As long as Li Jin Nian didn't scold her, she couldn't be bothered.
Anyway, she didn't like these ministers. Other than Wang Pingchang and a few other virtuous ministers, what else could these people do other than fill their own pockets?
Therefore, the empress couldn't be bothered to stand up for them.
Besides, even if she was scolded by Li Jin Nian, she would have to listen to him.
Do you know what a great savior is?
Li Jin Nian didn't announce to the public that he had developed a cannon, but the empress knew about it.
With this thing, there was no need to worry about the Huns not being destroyed!
After experiencing the events of the past few days, the empress had gradually developed a sense of rejection towards the idea of becoming the emperor.
He had not attended court for two days on the excuse that he was not feeling well.
She felt extremely comfortable.
If it wasn't for the fact that he really couldn't drag it out today, there were indeed many government affairs to deal with and many important matters to discuss with the ministers.
The empress really wanted to stay sick for a few more days.
She had already deeply experienced the joy of slacking off.
It felt good to slack off for a while, and it felt good to slack off all the time.
However, the prerequisite was that someone had to help her manage the court in an orderly manner so that the Great Feng could develop in an orderly manner.
From the looks of it, Li Jin Nian seemed to be the only one with this ability.
Just based on his ability to scold people, the empress felt that he was invincible.
Although Wang Pingchang was an elder of the three dynasties, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the head of all officials, some officials were only afraid of him on the surface. There were many people who pretended to obey him and secretly disobeyed him.
But what about Li Jin Nian?
The empress felt that if these people dared to disobey her, Li Jin Nian would really raise his sword and kill them.
The word "ruthless" was highlighted.
The empress was also very curious as to why Li Jin Nian was able to act without any scruples.
What did he have?
However, this was a secret that belonged to Li Jin Nian, so he definitely couldn't let her know.
……
"Don't be happy too early. Don't think that no one knows about the dirty things you've done.”
"I'll deal with you later."
Li Jin Nian glared at Guo Jiang, then turned around and continued to look at Kong Xun, who was kneeling on the ground.
"F * ck!"
"Guo Jiang is the Minister of Justice. He was reprimanded by God Li.”
"It's a little like a dean scolding a student.”
"Brothers, I just took a screenshot of Guo Jiang's aggrieved expression. I'll add another word to it.”
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Guo Jiang's expression is really good.”
When the netizens from Xia country saw Guo Jiang's "aggrieved" expression, they burst into laughter.
Even Bing Bing couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Indeed, Guo Jiang had an extremely aggrieved expression on his face just now.
He was the Minister of Justice, a proper Secondary Rank One, but he was actually bullied by a mere Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Guo Jiang already wanted to die.
If Li Jin Nian didn't die, how could he have a foothold in the imperial court?
Just as Guo Jiang was still thinking about how to kill Li Jin Nian, Li Jin Nian spoke again.
However, this time, he turned the muzzle and aimed it at Fan Jin.
"Don't you think it's f * cking funny?"
"General Kong said that he sent a small team deep into the rear of the Xiongnu army and saw with his own eyes that many tents had been torn down.”
"The Northguard Fortress is now surrounded. The soldiers can only defend to the death. It's difficult to even get out of the city, let alone go deep into the enemy's rear.”
"I would like to ask General Kong, how did your soldiers leave the city safely, pass through layers of blockades, arrive at the rear of the Xiongnu army, and return safely after investigating the enemy's situation?”
Kong Xun knelt on the ground, his scalp tingling from Li Jin Nian's questions.
The situation in Northguard Fortress was exactly as Li Jin Nian had described.
Now, the Xiongnu army had surrounded the Northguard Fortress, forming a three-way pincer formation. Only the south gate was left. Due to the terrain, the mountains on both sides were towering into the sky, forming a natural barrier that the Xiongnu army could not pass through.
The south gate was the only exit for the Northguard Fortress.
If they gave up on defending the city, the soldiers would retreat from the south gate.
"Why aren't you saying anything?"
Li Jin Nian saw that Kong Xun had fallen silent and asked with a cold smile.
"I think they didn't send anyone deep into the enemy's rear at all. What about the Xiongnu army's tents being torn down and many of them being destroyed? It's simply a lie made up by Fan Jin!”
"No! I did send someone."
Kong Xun suddenly raised his head and said.
He knew that he could not admit it now.
Otherwise, not only him, even Fan Jin would not be able to escape death.
"Then tell me, how did your men pass through the layers of blockades and enter the enemy's rear?”
Li Jin Nian asked.
"I don't know about that. I'm only responsible for giving orders. The soldiers below will do the actual implementation.”
Kong Xun began to play Tai Chi.
If he forcefully fabricated a lie, there would definitely be loopholes.
Moreover, his opponent was a monster like Li Jin Nian.
Therefore, he simply said that he didn't know.
"You're quite smart."
Li Jin Nian saw through his thoughts at a glance.
"Enough."
Fan Jin suddenly spoke.
He looked at Lee Jin Nian."
"No matter what, Kong Xun is a general who guards the border for Da Feng. He has shed his blood on the battlefield for Da Feng. How can he allow you to humiliate him like this?”
"What nonsense are you talking about? You should know better than me what kind of person Kong Xun is. Because of his existence, many soldiers of Northguard Fortress had died in vain. If I had a knife in my hand right now, I would immediately chop off Kong Xun's head to pay tribute to the souls of those soldiers who died in vain!”
Li Jin Nian shouted.
After all, he had transmigrated from the future, so he had some understanding of history.
In the battle of Northguard Fortress, the soldiers had fought for more than a month. Without food and weapons and reinforcements, all the soldiers had died and the city had fallen.
On the other hand, the Xiongnu relied on the Northguard Fortress as their base and attacked several states, forcing the empress to cross the river and flee in panic. In the end, they moved their capital to the Si River area.
As for Su Fei and some other patriotic soldiers, they defended the Imperial City to the death. In the end, all of them sacrificed their lives for the country and shed their last drop of blood for Da Feng.
After studying this period of history, people discovered that when Northguard Fortress was breached and tens of thousands of soldiers were sacrificed, one of the most important reasons was that there were spies inside.
Someone had burned down the granary in the city. The soldiers guarding the city could not even eat their fill, so how could they have any combat strength?
Moreover, this was clearly recorded in history.
There were still many things that had not been recorded.
Li Jin Nian believed that because of this spy, Kong Xun, many soldiers had died for no reason.
Fan Jin didn't expect Li Jin Nian to know so much.
If he continued to speak, the situation might completely go out of control.
He had to implement the second plan as soon as possible.
Faced with Li Jin Nian's challenge, Fan Jin's expression did not change. He said,
"Assistant Minister Li has said so much, but it is all speculation. Without evidence, it is really difficult to convince the public.”
"Do you think you can conclude that General Kong and I are spies of the Xiongnu with just a few words?”
"If that's the case, won't the entire court be in chaos?”
"You can directly determine whether a person is a spy or not with a single sentence. Could it be that this court has become the place where you, Assistant Minister Li, have a say?”
"This Da Feng has also become your Da Feng?”
Fan Jin's words made the originally silent ministers 'hearts freeze.
In fact, Fan Jin's words were meant for them to hear, to provoke them.
"F * ck, this Fan Jin is really sinister.”
"Damn it, I'm so disgusted. This person is indeed an old hand at playing mind games.”
"Oh no, I feel like those ministers are getting restless again.”
The netizens in Xia country could also feel the lethality of Fan Jin's words.
Professor Li Shuhe also said,"
"This Fan Jin is really smart. He knows very well that it would be very difficult for him to trip Li Jinnian by himself because he has Wang Pingchang and Lu Yuanzhen behind him.”
"That's why he needs to unite everyone he can and form an alliance to fight against contestant Li.”
"Although these ministers are now afraid of contestant Li, in fact, their hatred for contestant Li is constantly accumulating. As long as contestant Li is not eliminated, they will not be able to rest in peace.”
"Because of their different standpoints, they are already destined to be incompatible. In the end, it's either you die or I die.”
After Professor Li's analysis, the netizens could understand the situation in the imperial court better.
As expected.
After Fan Jin spoke, several ministers immediately stood up.
For example, the Minister of Justice Guo Jiang, the Minister of Personnel Yan Zhen, the Minister of Revenue Zhang Qian, the Scholar of the Imperial Academy, the Left and Right Censors of the Inspectorate, the Chief of the Imperial Clan Office, the Minister of the General Administration, the Minister of Guanglu Temple, the Minister of Taipu Temple, and so on.
More than 30 ministers stood up and expressed their stance.
Once these people joined forces, they would definitely be able to crush the imperial court like dried weeds and rotten wood.
They felt that Li Jin Nian was too arrogant and had no regard for the law. They begged the empress to punish him.
With so many ministers stepping forward, Fan Jin was clearly more confident.
Then, he said to the empress,
"Your Majesty, today's matter must be thoroughly investigated. Whether it's Assistant Minister Li, General Kong, or myself, since they are all suspects, then let the Inspectorate handle it. When they find out the truth, it will be clear who was wronged and who was the Xiongnu spy.”
"However, before the matter is investigated, I feel that it is necessary to put Assistant Minister Li in prison first. If he is really a spy of the Xiongnu, if we let him go, it will be extremely harmful to Dafeng.”
After Fan Jin finished speaking, Guo Jiang and the others quickly agreed.
"Your Majesty, I feel that Grand Scholar Fan is right. It is better to put Assistant Minister Li in prison first and wait for the Inspectorate to investigate the truth before dealing with him.”
"Your Majesty, I also feel that it is necessary to put Assistant Minister Li in prison. If he really is a spy of the Xiongnu and he escapes, I'm afraid there will be endless trouble in the future.”
"That's right. For the sake of my country and the people, I implore Your Majesty to put Assistant Minister Li and his father, Li Ling, into prison and keep them under strict supervision.”
“……”
The officials all stood up, wanting to use this opportunity to put Li Jin Nian in prison and then think of a way to kill him.
The empress sat on the dragon throne and sighed in her heart when she saw so many people wishing for Li Jin Nian to die.
"Sigh, Li Jin Nian has offended too many people.”
In a situation like this, she really didn't know what to do.
There would definitely be a big problem if Li Jin Nian was imprisoned.
However, if he was not imprisoned, there would still be big problems.
With so many officials standing up, if he still sided with Li Jin Nian, it would directly shake the country of Dafeng.
"Can I not be the emperor anymore?”
The empress felt that today was the day she had the most headache ever since she ascended the throne.
However, just as she felt helpless, Li Jin Nian took two steps forward and walked to the front of the hall.
Then, he bowed slightly and said to the empress,
"I implore Your Majesty to announce the decree."
"Decree? What decree?"
Not only the officials, but even the empress herself couldn't react.
However, when she finally reacted, it was as if she had seen a ghost.
"Thump."
Probably due to the shock, the empress fell off the dragon throne.
