The heavens are kings, starting with Qing Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 146 Killing in Public

He remembered this person, called Yang Shihui, two years ago, when he traveled to court for the first time, it was this person who suddenly attacked him.

But afterwards, this person was transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Industry.

Although it was regarded as a transfer at the same level, among the six departments, the Ministry of Industry had the lowest status, and was even vaguely dubbed "cheap".

Because the Ministry of Industry is mainly responsible for civil construction, many officials are craftsmen. For scholars, this is a cheap profession, and their status is naturally not much higher.

Being transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Industry, even if it was a transfer at the same level, was regarded as a reprimand.

To Li Chengqian, this is just an insignificant person, as long as he doesn't waver in front of him, he doesn't bother to talk to him.

But to fight against him again and again, do you really think that he still has the temper just after time travel?

In the past two years, more than a thousand people have died directly or indirectly at his hands. Not long ago, on Niulan Street, he even killed a bloody river.

He doesn't know whether the times have changed him, or he has adapted to the times.

Sometimes, human life is worthless in his eyes.

Just like this moment.

He didn't care what Chen Pingping thought, nor did he care about a mere Overwatch Council.

But even if he doesn't want it, he has to say it himself. He may not want it, but he is definitely not forced by the so-called situation or passively rejecting it.

While all the courtiers tried their best to persuade him, Li Chengqian walked up to the imperial guard beside the hall, raised his hand and drew out the long knife from the guard's waist.

The guard naturally wanted to avoid it at the first moment, drawing his sword in the Taiji Hall, even the crown prince was too presumptuous.

But when he took a step away, it seemed as if he had sent the knife to the prince on his own initiative.

With a bang, the sharp blade was unsheathed, which suddenly cooled down the enthusiastic persuasion atmosphere in the entire Tai Chi Hall.

A chill surged in the hearts of many ministers, what is the prince going to do?
Yang Shihui watched Li Chengqian walking towards him with a knife in his hand, although he looked calm, his legs were trembling faintly.

"What is His Highness the Crown Prince going to do? Could it be that he is going to kill people in the Tai Chi Hall, right under His Majesty's eyes?"

He felt that Li Chengqian must be bluffing. There has never been a prince who dared to be so unscrupulous in all dynasties.

Li Chengqian didn't have the slightest interest in explaining, he directly raised his hand and swung the knife, smashing Yang Shihui's big teeth with the blade of the knife.

Yang Shihui howled miserably with his mouth full of blood, but in the next second, Li Chengqian chopped off his legs with the back of his knife.

There were two cracking sounds, and he fell directly on the ground, his face contorted in pain.

He whimpered and wanted to ask for help, but Emperor Qing, whom he had placed high hopes on, sat high on the dragon chair with his eyes lowered, as if taking a nap. The faces of all the ministers were horrified, but no one spoke up for him.

The second prince Li Chengze almost hid himself completely, shrank in a corner, and remained silent.

Lin Ruofu frowned faintly, but remembering what Li Chengqian said about Fang Daren, he also chose to keep silent.

For a moment, Yang Shihui fell into an ice cave.

Li Chengqian said lightly: "In the case of Niulan Street, hundreds of crossbows in the hands of the Northern Qi thieves all came from the Ministry of Industry. This Palace has already found out that they all came from the Minister of Industry Yang Shihui. Collaborating with an enemy country, betraying national interests, this palace says he deserves to die, who is against it?"

He pressed Yang Shihui with the blade, and calmly glanced at the courtiers in the Tai Chi Hall.

No one spoke, and no one looked at him.

Li Chengqian smiled, a little mockingly, and sure enough, these were his ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

The next moment, he raised the knife and cut off Yang Shihui's head.

The chubby head rolled a few times in the pool of blood, but there was no more movement.

He then threw the knife in his hand onto Yang Shihui's body, clapped his hands, and said: "Your Majesty, the cholera in the Northern Qi Dynasty and my heart to celebrate the country will not die. My son begs for orders to punish Northern Qi and start a national war to correct our reputation in the Qing Dynasty.

After this battle, let the people of the world know that those who offend our Qing Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are! "

In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Chengqian's clear and bright voice continued for a long time, and everyone knew that his innocence was about to change.

Emperor Qing looked deeply at Li Chengqian, who had a hostile face and was a little high-spirited, and after a while, said slowly: "Yes!"

……

Hundreds of officials came out of the Taiji Hall one after another, with shock and horror still on their faces.

In the Taiji Hall, no one dared to question a third-rank Minister of the Ministry of Industry before killing a third-rank civil servant, even His Majesty acquiesced to the matter.

This matter really exceeded the imagination of many people.

On the contrary, it seemed that the fact that the Qing Kingdom was about to start a war against Northern Qi was not that important anymore.

Because everyone knows that this battle must be won.

This is the undoubted self-confidence of a Qing countryman.

Under the awe-inspiring eyes of everyone, Li Chengqian walked out of the palace gate all the way, got into the carriage and drove slowly towards the East Palace.

But after a while, he was chased by a carriage.

Just as the guards of the Eastern Palace wanted to stop him, they heard Li Chengqian say, "Let him come here."

The two carriages drove side by side at a very slow speed. Li Chengqian opened the side curtain, and Chen Pingping's face was also exposed in the carriage.

Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Master Dean is looking for something for me?"

Chen Pingping said calmly: "Naturally, the veteran would like to talk to His Highness about the inspection of the Overwatch Council."

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty never agreed."

"But I didn't refuse." Chen Pingping remained calm.

Li Chengqian smiled, looked at Chen Pingping, and said, "Tell me about your conditions."

Chen Pingping was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "The Overwatch Council can advance and retreat with His Highness, as long as His Highness is willing to help me investigate a case, and after the truth is revealed, I can abdicate and completely hand over the Overwatch Council to His Highness."

Li Chengqian frowned lightly, the case?Oh, it must be Ye Qingmei's case.

After more than ten years of investigation with the power of the Overwatch Council, Chen Pingping must have almost realized the true identity of the person behind the scenes.

But because of this, he knew very well that without the intervention of external forces, with the power of the Overwatch Council, he could no longer investigate.

And his appearance gave Chen Pingping new hope.

However, the reason why Chen Pingping made such a decision is probably inseparable from his performance in the Tai Chi Hall today.

"Your Excellency is the pillar of the Qing Dynasty. If President Chen resigns, the Overwatch Council may be in a state of collapse. What is the use of this palace?"

Chen Pingping pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What do you think of Fan Xian, Your Highness?"

Li Chengqian smiled, and said, "You want him to take over the Overwatch Council? Your Majesty has already made him the successor of the Internal Treasury. A minister who holds both the Internal Treasury and the Overwatch Council in his hands, Mr. Dean thinks that he can How long to live?"

Chen Pingping said calmly: "With your highness' ability, it only takes one sentence to erase the possibility of Fan Xian inheriting the internal treasury."

"That depends on the sincerity of the dean."

Li Chengqian put down the side curtain, said something lightly, and then gave an order, and the carriage sped away.
