The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 333 Purge
The chopsticks in Lin Zisu's hand paused for a moment, and then he said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about it, the prince will naturally know what's going on when he comes back."

In fact, the reason for the matter is not complicated. After the Li Supervisor finished delivering the decree yesterday, he sent a copy to the Ministry of Rites as usual because the vassal king was dealing with the affairs of the Tian family.

Originally, this matter did not have much to do with the government, but for some reason, this decree was heard by the censors early this morning.

The content of the decree is very simple, and Xie Xi is severely reprimanded, and he is required to go to the domain immediately without further delay.

The censors have long been displeased with Xie Xi's daily words and deeds. In the past two years, they have participated in many memorials to Xie Xi.

However, the emperor has been suppressing, and every time the censors participate in the performance, nothing happens.

Since the founding of the country, Dayan has inherited the ancient system and divided the clan's children into various parts of the country.The original intention is for the enfeoffed clan to control the local garrison and supervise the local administration.

However, since Taizong and Ruizong repeatedly cut down the vassals, the power in the hands of the vassal kings in various places has been deprived one by one.Being trapped in the palace with nothing to do, he turned to have fun, doing his best in extravagance and extravagance.

Up to the Zhengxing Dynasty, it was not uncommon for the children of the clan to occupy the land and compete with the local for profit.

Originally, the censors were still worried about offending the dignity of the royal family, so even if they participated in the performance, they would think twice.

With this decree, the censors thought they had the wind, and took action immediately.

The case of King Wei a few months ago really shocked all civil and military officials, so they all pretended to turn a blind eye.

This time is different, Xie Xi has no foundation behind him, and now he has aroused the emperor's disgust, so he is not afraid of offending him.

Especially a few veteran officials felt that it was a good time to purge the clan by using this excuse.

The censors are well aware of the far-reaching impact of this matter, so they should not rush for success, they are just tentatively written by a few young censors.

However, the situation in the early court was beyond the expectations of the censors.

Several people had just finished participating in the performance at the court, and more than 100 civil servants at the court, six or seven out of ten expressed their support, the emperor couldn't help but suddenly changed color, and walked away on the spot.

In less than half an hour, the early court ended with the emperor's angrily leaving, but the subsequent fermentation had just begun.

As soon as Xie Xi arrived at the gate of Qianqing Palace, he saw the emperor hurriedly walking towards this side, only Zhang Gu followed behind, secretly surprised in his heart.

He knew that his father had always been diligent in his administration, and sometimes he would not rest until noon in the early morning.

He thought he would have to wait at least an hour or two in the Qianqing Palace, but when he came from the palace, he took his trip leisurely and did not take today's trip seriously at all.

Seeing the emperor's angry face at this time, Xie Xi calmed down instantly, and after saluting the emperor, followed the emperor into the main hall of Qianqing Palace.

"Hmph! These people are really lawless!"

As soon as the emperor came to the imperial case, he suddenly slapped the imperial case hard, and shouted angrily: "This group of white-eyed wolves, I have not treated them badly, but there is a little rumor, and each of them has revealed its original form."

Seeing the bewilderment on Xie Xi's face, the emperor casually picked up a memorial from the royal case and threw it in front of Xie Xi, "Look, there are still people forcing me to expel you from the clan. These people want to rebel ?"

Xie Xi flipped through it casually for a few moments, and said lazily: "Father, this son-in-law's visit is to deceive others, and now everyone is saying that the son-in-law should be killed. Isn't this what the father wants to see?"

The emperor was furious, "You are my son, even if there is something wrong, I should punish you. These people are so overbearing, how can they take me, the emperor, seriously?"

"Father, you don't need to be angry. My son doesn't care much about these things. The left and right are about to leave the capital. If they make trouble, let them go. Anyway, my son won't hear it."

"It's easy for you to say."

The emperor looked at Xie Xi with deep eyes, waiting for his idea.

Xie Xi spread his hands and said, "Then please tell me, Father, how should I respond, kill them? Or scold them one by one?"

"I didn't say that."

The emperor was at a loss for words for a while, and was silent for a while, as if thinking of something, his expression became more relaxed.

"Little four, it's fine if you messed around in the past. Now you have a family. Even if you go to Dunzhou, Su Yatou is still in the capital. If the trouble becomes serious, how do you let her move around in the capital?" ?”

Xie Xi's face changed first, and then he laughed, "Father, you have taken Su Su too lightly, she is not an ordinary boudoir girl, and she won't care what these rotten scholars say."

Speaking of this, Xie Xi couldn't help thinking that he had bet with Xu Wentao and Liang Mingtai for several months, and in order to win the bet, he would not hesitate to fabricate rumors in Beijing.

Facing the wind and rain in the city, Lin Zisu was still calm and unaffected at all.

Recalling the situation where she confronted herself, especially that peaceful little face, Xie Xi felt sweet in her heart.

Knowing the son is like a father, the emperor naturally saw the joy in Xie Xi's eyes, and said dissatisfiedly: "I am here to give you an idea, but you are fine, you can still lose your mind while talking to me. Why, you are not going to respond?"

"Father, it was your will to reprimand my ministers. Now that these people are acting after hearing the news, it is also your order. My ministers dare not say anything."

The emperor was a little downhearted, and after a casual confession with Xie Xi, he asked him to retreat.

After Xie Xi left, a soft voice came in from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the prince is seeking an audience outside Qianqing Palace."

The emperor heard the voice of the person coming, and let him push the door in. "The prince is going to speak for those people again. Right now, I don't want to hear a word. Just let him wait outside."

"The prince grew up reading the books of sages and sages. It is inevitable that he will be swayed by the courtiers. Your Majesty need not be troubled. After a long time, His Majesty will know people's hearts."

The emperor was noncommittal to the visitor's words, changed the subject immediately, and said with a smile: "Little Si'er has matured a lot, this time he didn't yell for beating and killing. I originally hoped that he would come forward to teach these picky clowns a lesson. Knowing that he is not up to the mark."

"Your Highness has a heavy responsibility, it's better for your servants to come forward to offend people like this."

The emperor ignored it, and continued: "If these people are really for the country and the people, I will let them do it, but they only care about their own reputation and interests. Why have they ever considered the suffering of the national economy and the difficulties of the people's livelihood?"

"They are cronies, they are messing with the government with their words, they are despising my ancestral system, and they are trying to blackmail me."

At this point, the emperor waved his hand and said decisively: "You have other things, you can't get too grudge with them right now, let Cao Shouli come, tell Cao Shouli, be more ruthless, my life is in danger Today, they cannot be allowed to influence the government!"
