I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 656 Ten Mistakes
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he waved his hand and saw someone bringing up Li Jue's confession.

Not only are there confessions, but there are also various supporting evidence collected by the Hebei Army in Guanzhong!
This evidence includes the confessions of many prominent local families, as well as the confessions of villagers near the place where Li Jue and Guo Si hoarded grain, grass and weapons.

In Bingzhou and Hongnong, there is also evidence of confessions about Taiyuan Wang and Hongnong Yang hoarding grain and grass at their home in Wubao and secretly recruiting soldiers.

In fact, in these troubled times, it is normal for major prominent families to secretly recruit soldiers locally. Although it is illegal, the court cannot control it at present.

But now Liu Jian has connected this matter with the rebellion of Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others. Coupled with Li Jue's own confession, Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others may not be able to clean it up no matter how hard they clean it up.

Seeing Liu Yu bring these evidences, Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Chun Yujia and others were furious in their hearts!
They are also sensible people and know that although the people confronting them are Liu Yu and Ganling King Liu Zhong, the mastermind behind this must be Liu Jian!

But Liu Jian didn't even stand up now, and didn't even bother to confront them, but he made these old guys so angry!
This is too bullying. You are clearly the one scheming us, why don't you even show your face?
In fact, it's not that Liu Jian is deliberately procrastinating, it's just that these old guys are really not taken seriously by him now, and Liu Jian has relatively high requirements for himself, and he doesn't want his reputation to be damaged because of these old guys.

Besides, these old guys are worthy of fighting with him in the ring?

Looking at the so-called evidence on the ground, Wang Yun stamped his feet and roared angrily: "This is a frame-up, a frame-up! There is no such thing at all. These evidences were all fabricated by you to frame me!"

Liu Yuyi looked at Wang Yuncheng sternly and said: "Wang Situ said that these evidences were forged by us. I would like to ask Wang Situ whether Li Jue was an official in the same court with you, or with one of us. Official? Has any of us seen Li Jue before coming to Guanzhong?"

Yang Biao said angrily: "Liu Boyan, please don't get confused. This is clearly a trap set by Liu Deran and Li Jue, with the intention of framing me and others. Where is Liu Deran? Do you dare to stand up and confront me?!"

Yang Biao had already pointed the finger at himself. If Liu Jian didn't stand up at this time, it would be a bit too unmanly.

Liu Jian was seen slowly standing out from the crowd, with his hands behind his back and a look of leisurely contentment.

In response to Yang Biao's scolding, Liu Jian didn't waste much time. He didn't even look at Yang Biao and just spoke slowly.

"Li Jue and Guo Bang both died at my hands, and I had already convicted them of being traitors before they died."

As soon as these words were said, all the Liu clan members couldn't help laughing.

Their laughter was full of sarcasm, and obviously contained contempt. Of course, this contempt was directed at Yang Biao.

"Li Jue died in the hands of the general and was labeled a traitor by the general, but he actually helped the general frame others before he died? How ridiculous!"

"It's simply ridiculous. Even ordinary Guizhou refugees wouldn't do such a stupid thing, right?"

"By perjuring himself as a witness to the person who killed him, is Li Jue going crazy?"

"I didn't expect that our Han Dynasty would use a lunatic from Liangzhou as a general for so many years!"

"Hahahaha, tell me, how can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world? I'm perjuring myself for someone who killed me. I really don't know how Taiwei Yang could say this."

"..."

Yang Biao's face was livid at the moment. He clenched his fists tightly and the veins on his forehead were exposed. However, facing the ridicule from all the Liu family members, he really couldn't think of any words to refute.

Because what these Liu family members said is indeed correct!

In fact, even Yang Biao himself couldn't figure it out. Li Jue obviously died at the hands of Liu Jian, so why did he give Liu Jian a false witness to testify against them and persecute them?

Could it be that this matter was really not Liu Jian's instruction, but that Li Jue deliberately caused trouble, just to drag them, the court officials, into trouble before he died?
The question is, Yang Biao and Li Jue never had any direct conflicts on weekdays. Why did Li Jue frame him like this?
Yang Biao's heart was pounding as his ears were filled with the loyal ridicule of the Han clan. He suddenly changed his words and said incoherently: "This is Li Jue deliberately framed me. He deliberately framed me, just to make me Disgraced."

Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, looked at Yang Biao coldly and said, "Just now, Taiwei Yang said that it was the general who framed you, and now he says that it was Li Jue who framed you. I don't understand why everyone in the world wants to slander you." You? Who is really framing you? Are you going to say that it was us princes and kings who framed you? Or maybe the emperor framed you, but the queen mother framed you?"

"You, you, you!"

After Yang Biao heard Liu Zhong's words, a surge of anger suddenly rushed into his heart.

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly felt a sudden darkness, and then he suddenly fell backward and fell on the main hall.

His legs were twitching back and forth, he was foaming at the mouth, and his eyes were even a little white.

When everyone saw it, they were all shocked. Yang Biao passed out from anger.

What can this be done?
Wang Yun said angrily: "King Ganling, why do you treat Yang Taiwei like this?"

At this time, Liu Jian was heard to say calmly: "Lieutenant Yang is not feeling well. Please take him down and send him home to make him well. Then let the doctors take care of him. However, he is sick." Gui is sick, and he will still have to bear the responsibility for his crimes... We will talk about it later, someone, send him back to his house!"

"you……"

Wang Yun pointed at Liu Jian, but Liu Jian didn't even look at him.

In this way, under the pressure of everyone, the dignified Taiwei Yang Biao became seriously ill and lay unconscious on the ground. He was then sent home for treatment.

At this moment, no one, whether it was Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and other ministers, or the emperor, continued to pay attention to Yang Biao. Instead, their eyes were focused on another person.

That was Liu Jian who just stood out in the crowd.

"Liu Deran! Uncle Liu Huang!" Liu Zhuan said angrily.

Liu Jian was very calm: "I pay homage to Your Majesty, pay homage to Your Highness!"

He naturally walked out of the team and saluted the Emperor Liu Bian and the Queen Mother.

Liu Jian knew the rules very well and did not violate any rules.

Queen Mother He looked at Liu Jian with complicated eyes!

I thought it was this man and Lu Qiang who helped their mother and son back then, but now it was this man who harmed their mother and son.

Liu Bian gritted his teeth and stared at Liu Jian and said: "Liu Deran, Liu Aiqing, what do you have to say about today's incident? You are the late emperor's servant, and now you are entangled with these princes and kings to harm me. What are your intentions? Are you worthy of the late emperor? Tuogu?"

Liu Jian gave a long salute to Liu Bian respectfully.

"I am indeed sorry for the late emperor's entrustment. Over the years, I have guarded the Northern Territory for the Han Dynasty, appeased the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu. I have also worked hard to make the Northern Territory prosperous, so that the people have enough food and clothing, cultivate elite soldiers and develop industries for the Han Dynasty. Rich people... I want to hold up half the sky for Your Majesty, but I have neglected to teach Your Majesty."

"No matter how well I handle the affairs of the country, your Majesty allows your Majesty to get close to villains and stay away from virtuous ministers, which has turned the Han Dynasty into this state."

"I am here with all the princes and kings to pay homage to His Majesty with my death, but I am not qualified to be the leader."

"Among the princes, no matter in terms of seniority or age, there is someone who is taller than me."

"As long as Your Majesty is willing to correct his past bad habits, I will not hesitate to present this head to His Majesty."

"On this occasion today, I didn't have the right to speak, because I am just a middle-ranking member of the Liu family. I just want to beg Your Majesty to listen more to my uncle."

"I am willing to devote myself to your majesty and the Han Dynasty until my death."

Although these words seemed to be self-examination, in fact, they made Liu Bian choke and stunned.

Anyone who is not stupid, after listening to Liu Jian's words, will know whose fault lies with the emperor and his ministers.

Liu Bian's chest was heaving and trembling with anger. He tremblingly stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Jian from afar, but Liu Jian stopped paying attention to him and instead retreated back to the camp of the Liu family clan members.Xun You stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Liu Bian suddenly turned his head to look at Xun You.

"What do you have to say?"

"I feel that since a group of clan kings came to Beijing and presented evidence in public, regardless of whether the matter is true or not, your Majesty should temporarily imprison the people involved and hand them over to the court captain for detailed verification. After all, it is treason. Is it possible for Your Majesty to just leave this major case uninvestigated?"

Xun You's words make sense.

Not only the Liu family members agreed, but also people from the Qingliu family also agreed.

Everyone spoke to each other and asked Liu Bian to temporarily imprison Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and others. After all, it concerned the country of the Han Dynasty. Since the Liu family members had produced evidence, they had to check it more or less carefully, even if they He was framed, so we have to investigate first, right?

Logically speaking, if Liu Bian is a smart man, he should go down the slope and imprison Wang Yun and others temporarily at this time. As for how to investigate later, let's talk about it later.

Besides, Wang Yun and others were actually not in any alliance with Liu Bian. These clan members had previously restricted Liu Bian, and temporarily imprisoning them did not harm Liu Bian's position.

But Liu Bian is a very extreme kid.

He felt that his imperial power had been challenged. No matter whether the requests they made were reasonable or unreasonable, Liu Bian refused to agree to them in order to maintain his dignity.

Liu Bian sneered and said: "This world is my world. The ministers in the court are my ministers. Who I want to appoint, who I want to punish, who I want to imprison, that is my business and has nothing to do with you!"

As soon as he said this, Xun You immediately fell silent and quietly stepped aside.

Because he has achieved his goal.

When all the princes and kings saw Liu Bian talking like this, they were immediately angry.

"How could your Majesty say such willful words?"

"This matter is so serious, your Majesty, won't you even investigate it?!"

"Your Majesty, the evidence that Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and others have rebelled is conclusive. I regard the safety of the Han Dynasty as my own responsibility. Please investigate this matter strictly. This is not to force your Majesty to frame Zhongliang. Your Majesty's words like this, doesn't it chill the hearts of loyal ministers?"

Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Queen Mother He reached out and pulled Liu Bian's sleeve and said: "Your Majesty, please don't offend the public's anger..."

Liu Bian didn't care anymore. He suddenly flicked his sleeves and shouted: "Did I offend the public? It's these rebellious ministers who offend me again!"

After that, he suddenly pointed at Liu Yu and shouted: "You just said that I have ten major crimes, but now you are only listed on one of them, why don't you also mention the other crimes and let me listen carefully! !”

Liu Yuyan said: "How dare I list the crimes for Your Majesty? It's just the ten faults of His Majesty since he took the throne. Well, since Your Majesty wants to hear it, it means that Your Majesty has the intention to repent. Then I will give your Majesty a good explanation." .”

"The first is to favor and trust the traitors, trust Wang Yun, Yang Biao and other traitors. Now that they have rebelled, Your Majesty does not even investigate. This is a mistake."

"The second is the small money policy, which caused food prices to skyrocket and made the people miserable. This is the second fault."

"Thirdly, His Majesty used his swords and weapons rashly and made Dong Zhuo lead an army of more than [-] people to march westward. He spent countless money and food, but was unable to win, which greatly damaged the vitality of the imperial court. This is the third fault."

"Fourth, Your Majesty treated the people poorly, causing swords and soldiers to rise in Guanzhong and the Central Plains. Li Xiang also gathered millions of people to cause disaster. This is the fourth fault."

"The fifth is that he was good at killing Zhongliang and killed Lu Qiang, which chilled the hearts of loyal and righteous people. This is the fifth fault."

"The sixth fault is that he lost prestige in the local area for a long time, which caused the Yuan family, Cao Cao and other bandits to invade and occupy the territory of the Han Dynasty."

"The seventh fault is that the officials are not governed, which leads to political chaos in the central court, numerous factions, and people's livelihood. This is the seventh fault."

"Eighth, they do not promote all businesses and are overjoyed at great achievements, which leads to poverty for the people and financial depression."

"The ninth reason is to establish new policies first, then abolish them, and change orders day by day, which leads to numerous bad policies and local government orders that do not go smoothly."

"Tenth, they do not accept the words of loyal ministers, are stubborn, and insist on going their own way, which makes the big man..."

"enough!!"

Liu Bian suddenly roared and interrupted Liu Yu's words.

Immediately afterwards, he was seen staggering down the steps step by step. He stared at the people below with his eyes wide open as he walked.

"Okay, okay, everything is my fault, right? The Han Dynasty became what it is today, all because of my fault, right?"

"What a top ten mistake. How can this be a fault? This is clearly telling everyone in the world that I am an ignorant and ignorant king!!"

At this time, Liu Jian stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, I also made mistakes. I failed to persuade your Majesty immediately, which caused your Majesty to make a mistake and put the country of Han Dynasty in danger. This is my fault. Pass!"

Liu Bian stared at Liu Jian and said: "Okay, okay, what a loyal minister and good general, Uncle Liu! You have done all the good things in the world by yourself. If it weren't for you, the Han Dynasty would have been lost long ago." no?!"

Faced with Liu Bian's question, Liu Jian did not answer: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask your Majesty to change his government. Liu Qingzhou and King Ganling will stay in the court to assist your majesty. After it is confirmed that your majesty has completely reformed, I will leave on my own. "

Liu Bian said angrily: "You want to threaten me?"

Liu Jian said: "I don't dare. I just want to correct your Majesty's mistakes."

"If I don't agree, what can you do to me?"

King Zhao Liu Yu said: "The emperor has lost his virtue and if he cannot correct it, we, the Liu clan, will have to establish a new king!"

As soon as Liu Bian said this, Liu Bian had not raised any objections, but the Queen Mother He gave up: "You are so audacious that you dare to discuss the abolition of the emperor. The emperor was established by the late emperor. What qualifications do you have to abolish it?" Emperor?"

The King of Donghai said coldly: "The late emperor was just elected by the officials and clan members of the Han Dynasty through discussion, so why not? Besides, even if the emperor is abolished, the person we want to support is someone who is decided by everyone, and he must be The descendants of the late emperor should be given priority."

As soon as these words were spoken, Queen Mother He was stunned.

"What? Why put the late emperor's heirs first?"

The King of Donghai turned around and immediately invited King Chenliu and Liu Xie beside Liu Yao to the center of the hall.

"Queen Mother, please see, this one is not a descendant of the late emperor. In terms of identity, he is from the same lineage as the emperor today. The emperor today is stupid and immoral. Why can't King Chen Liu inherit the throne?"

Queen Mother He didn't recognize Liu Xie at first.

But soon he recognized the other person.

"You son of a cheap servant, how dare you appear here?"

Liu Xie calmed down and said immediately: "I have met the emperor brother and the queen mother."
