His words were sonorous and powerful.
In the next second.
In the imperial court, all the civil and military officials were in an uproar. All of them pointed at Jiang Feng with righteous indignation. How could this person go so far?
Chongzhen's old face was even more embarrassed, as if it had been slapped by the sole of a shoe.
"Hehe…Lord Jiang, how can your country not be in danger?”
Among the officials, another person immediately stood out. He took two steps forward and cupped his fists."With Lord Jiang's words, don't we deserve to die ten thousand deaths?”
"Minister of War, Lord Wei?"
Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise and exclaimed,"Just now, I was just scolding you for being a fly and a dog. Why did Lord Wei take the initiative to take the blame?”
"You…"
The one who spoke was the Minister of War, Wei Zaode.
He was born as a scholar and was also a scholar of the East Pavilion. He was eloquent and old.
This guy was also a member of the Kenghuang. When the country was weak, he had a lot of money but didn't take a single cent.
He had originally thought that when Li Zicheng invaded the capital, he would definitely be able to get an important position from Li Zicheng with his talent and eloquence.
But in the end…he was imprisoned by a general under Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin. He was tortured for five days and five nights before he died of a brain fracture.
Anyway, they were not good things.
"Does Minister Jiang mean that there's no one in the royal court who can be used?”
Chong Zhen smiled coldly. His obstinate and self-opinionated character was displayed again. Old Zhu's bad habits were all spoiled.
"I dare not."
Just as Jiang Feng finished speaking politely, Chong Zhen suddenly turned around and glared at him."Why wouldn't Lord Jiang dare? According to what Lord Jiang said just now, the crisis of the Ming Dynasty is your fault. In other words, isn't it my fault?”
The Emperor was not stupid to point fingers at the mulberry and scold the locust.
Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows, a little embarrassed."If Your Majesty thinks this way, I…am helpless.”
"How dare you!"
Wei Zaode and Chen Yan were immediately enraged. They rushed up from the left and right and said angrily,""Jiang Feng, do you think I don't know what you've done in the Central Plains? You helped the rebel army and cursed the court for being stupid. I also heard that…you actually dared to make a promise to the rebels. If His Majesty doesn't put the rebels in an important position, you still threatened to rebel?”
"F * ck…"
Jiang Feng couldn't stand it anymore. Without thinking, he slapped her and said,"You actually dare to frame me. You can even use such despicable methods. What's the difference between you and that whore in the brothel?"
"Jiang Feng…"
"You…"
Wei Zaode and Chen Yan covered their faces in shock.
"Your Majesty…"
Jiang Feng turned around and cupped his fists."The country is in danger. May I ask Your Majesty, is this lowly subject really guilty? If quelling the rebellion and solving the drought is a big crime, Your Majesty can punish me. If I'm not guilty…the moment I come, it's as if I've committed a heinous crime. I've been criticized by all of you, and the anger in my heart is difficult to dissipate.”
"Then according to Minister Jiang, what should we do?”
Chong Zhen was delighted.
This was the effect he wanted.
He was afraid that Jiang Feng would be smug, so he quickly found some people to deliberately suppress him so that he would be more loyal to him.
As emperors, they all liked to play this kind of black-bellied game.
"Resign and return home…"
Jiang Feng raised his head and then lowered his head.”
"Jiang Feng!"
Chong Zhen was happy for less than half a minute when he suddenly became angry and slammed his fist on the table."You actually dare to make things difficult for me, do you really think that this Great Ming will cease to exist without you?”
"How dare this lowly subject."
Jiang Feng also went all out. Anyway, he had a nail gun on his waist. He straightened his back and said,"Your Majesty often reflects on himself as a wise ruler, but if you can't distinguish between merits and demerits, how can you say the words of a wise ruler? Back then, Emperor Taizu hated the crafty sycophants in the court the most. However, after hundreds of years, when it came to His Majesty, Great Ming actually fell to such a state…"
"Shut up!"
Chongzhen was furious, completely furious.
"The country belongs to the people of the world. The emperor is the emperor of His Majesty alone. Emperor Taizu once led tens of thousands of soldiers and shed their blood to conquer the country…"
"Shut up. How dare you rebel, shut up…"
Chong Zhen had completely lost his mind and was on the verge of roaring.
Jiang Feng did not care about this and continued to spew,"If you can't hear the truth and can't tolerate the honest officials, how can you stabilize the Ming Dynasty?”
Chong Zhen was stunned.
With a ferocious expression and bloodshot eyes, the finger pointing at Jiang Feng stopped in mid-air.
That's right.
This was Chongzhen.
A person who cared so much about face but refused to admit his own shortcomings.
If it was a few years ago, Jiang Feng would have been dragged out and beheaded if he dared to say such things to him.
But now, Chongzhen was no longer willing to do so.
This was because there was indeed no one around him to rely on. Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan, and other famous generals were all dead.
He also realized that he was becoming more and more unpopular.
"You…"
Chong Zhen's old face twitched and gradually dimmed.
He wasn't stupid. Other than Jiang Feng, he had no one else he could use.
"Your Majesty…"
After slapping the Emperor a few times, Jiang Feng very sensibly bowed slightly again, with a very respectful look on his face, and slowly said,"May I ask Your Majesty if this lowly subject was lying just now? This is a crime of treason and heresy. If I don't put Your Majesty's country first, why would I take this risk? Was it just to achieve fame? If it was fame, just to solve the problem of the Central Plains, no one in the present could compare. But…I still want to be a commoner.”
