Extreme alert

Chapter 1636
Since ancient times, the only difficulty is death.

Chen Dong changed his title, and that difficulty seemed to be forgotten by him, and he said slowly, "But Chen can't afford to share his worries with you, but because of the coercion of the six thieves, he dare not speak the truth. I am really ashamed of my conscience."

Li Yan looked annoyed.

Chen Dong continued, "Your Majesty said just now that Chen Dong's testimony shows that Mr. Shen is fair in dealing with things. In fact, the truth is always obvious. It only depends on whether others really want to see it!"

Zhao Ji's eyes flickered.

Chen Dong obviously had a plan to go all out, and continued: "The six thieves in the capital have harmed the country and the people, not to mention others, but this chief executive, Li Yan, is rampant in the capital, buying and selling by force, occupying tens of thousands of hectares..."

Li Yan clenched his fist and glared at Chen Dong.

Chen Dong glanced at Li Yan, and said without fear: "Countless people's homes have been ruined because of this. Even the wealthy households in Beijing are in danger. If Li Yan takes a fancy to his fields, he will become a beggar on the street overnight. He died because of this." The innocent lives at the hands of Li Yan, as far as Chen Dong knows, are in the thousands."

Li Yan said angrily, "Chen Dong, in front of the Holy Majesty, you won't be allowed to talk nonsense!"

Zhao Ji suddenly said, "Li Yan, is what Chen Dong said really nonsense?"

Li Yan's heart trembled slightly, feeling the alienation of the emperor's address, he knelt down and said, "My lord, my minister has indeed expropriated tens of thousands of hectares of land."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned, thinking that he would blow himself up.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan said immediately, "But what I have done this time is only for the sake of the Holy One."

Chen Dong said angrily: "Full of nonsense!"

He was out of anger, and it was hard to imagine that under the blue sky and the sun, there are still such people who ignore the facts and turn black and white.

Shen Yue watched silently, thinking to himself that if Li Yan didn't fight back, he wouldn't be Li Yan anymore.As for Li Yan's words, he was not surprised.

When a country is about to perish, there must be monsters.

Here, evil does not mean that monsters appear frequently, but that human nature is close to monsters, which is why many ugly things appear in broad daylight.

Li Yan then said, "The sage works day and night, and the humble minister eats the lord's salary. Naturally, the sage should share his worries. At the beginning, the construction of Huafu Palace and Genyue was delayed for a long time because of the problem of land use. Potential, it is difficult to tolerate the free heart of the Holy One."

With a face full of loyalty to the country, Li Yanyang said, "I thought, if the Holy One wants to expand the Miyagi and show off his carefree nature, it is inevitable to collect land."

Zhao Ji murmured, "So that's how it is."

Hearing this, Li Yan excitedly said, "I know that the Holy One will understand my intentions. I tried my best to collect the land, just wanting to use it when the Holy One builds the world's magnificent treasures. Everything I own is a gift from the Holy One. The expropriated land is naturally owned by the Holy One!"

After a slight pause, Li Yan said again, "Recently, I feel that my dragon face is not showing up, and I have long wanted to tell the matter to the Holy One, hoping to relieve the Holy One's worries."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Chen Dong, and Li Yan said slightly sarcastically, "I was misunderstood by Xiao Xiao for his intentions, but he thought I was greedy."

Shen Yue thought to himself that this Li Yan was really smart, and immediately gave up the tens of thousands of hectares of land accumulated over the years in exchange for escaping the disaster, which was really an extraordinary decision.

This is probably also the reason for Zhao Ji's hesitation.

No matter how unbearable Li Yan was, the benefits belonged to Zhao Ji after all.

Chen Dong said angrily, "Then you, Li Yan, killed more than a thousand lives, are you also praying for the Holy One?"

After saying a word, Zhao Ji's expression darkened slightly.

Li Yan caught a glimpse of the emperor's face, and thought to himself that you, Chen Dong, might be about to become a loyal lieutenant.

Chen Dong was furious, but Li Yan said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, when my minister expropriated the land, his opponent gave repeated orders to make them trade fairly, but there are always greedy people in this world who ask for innumerable demands. At this time, Wei The minister's subordinates may have used extreme means, but with the conscience of heaven and earth, everything this minister does is for the sake of the Holy One."

Seeing Shen Yue looking at him, smiling without saying a word, Li Yan's heart skipped a beat.

He, Li Yan, is naturally familiar with handling appeals from complaining people, but he is really a little afraid of Shen Yue, who can gain the trust of the emperor without making a show.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have given in to Shen Yue as soon as he saw Shen Yue.

"Of course, I'm afraid there are some people who disrespect orders."

Li Yan sighed softly, "But this is really unavoidable. Even if we are loyal, there will be unworthy relatives around us."

Zhao Ji nodded slowly.

Shen Yue thought to himself that this Li Yan is worthy of being the head of the palace, and he is very well informed about the news in the palace. Li Yan must have known about Zhao Ji's punishment of Zhao Ji, so his words made Zhao Ji feel the same.

"I will definitely investigate the matter of my subordinates harming the common people due to land expropriation, and give an explanation to the sage." Li Yan gradually calmed down. Bewitching is also possible."

With a slight smile, Li Yan seemed to be magnanimous and said, "But from the perspective of my humble minister, Chen Gongshi is also loyal, but he is a little less rational, and he is not suitable for heavy responsibility."

It was natural for him to narrate like this.

In the past, when it came to this point, because Zhao Ji was afraid of trouble, he was lazy to manage the government affairs, and the rest of the affairs would be handled by his favorite ministers.

Li Yan followed his past habits and ended the case by the way.If he had used his previous methods to put Chen Dong in prison first, but now he was afraid that there would be another side issue, so he decided to make the big thing into a small one.

Looking at Chen Dong, Li Yan thought to himself that if you, a scholar, understand the truth, you should apologize and appreciate the mighty kindness of the emperor.

Chen Dongwei took a deep breath, "It's a waste of money to waste people's money. After you, Li Yan, said that the matter of neglecting human life has become a beautiful thing of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country."

A chill flashed across Li Yan's eyes.

"Those who achieve great things are hard to stick to small details,"

Li Yan said in a persuasive tone, "What Li Yan does is the sage's sake. It was the same way in the past, and there is nothing wrong with it." Looking at Zhao Ji, Li Yan said very loyally, "If you let the unruly people obey Understand, that will delay the time for the Holy One to cultivate immortality."

Shen Yue secretly felt that it was absurd.

An emperor took cultivating immortals as his main business, and said it openly, which shows how outrageous the emperor Zhao Ji is.But when Li Yan mentioned this matter, he said it naturally, and saw that it was just a custom in the past.

No matter how absurd things are, legalizing the state apparatus seems to have become a matter of course.No matter how ignorant a custom is, if it is enforced by many people, it seems that it has the power to crush the sober.

Chen Dong gritted his teeth and said, "What you have done in the past does not mean that the past was correct."

It was rare for him to see the Son of Heaven, and seeing that everything was like muddy mud, he finally decided to persevere again.

Li Yan said lightly, "Could it be that Chen Gongshi thinks that things like expanding Huafu Palace and building Genyue are all wrong?"

The crowd was silent.

But anyone with a brain understands what Li Yan means—to deny him, Li Yan, is to deny what Zhao Ji did in the past.How many courtiers in the world are there who dare to say that the emperor has done wrong?
Chen Dong stood alone in front of the hall, and finally said after a long while, "That's right, in Chen Dong's eyes, what the Son of Heaven did in the past is indeed a big mistake!"
