Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 54 Make it known to the world and admit your mistakes!

At this moment, the hall was silent.

It seemed that no one had expected that the grandson of Emperor Jing, who had "come back to life", would say such shocking words.

What do you want to do by involving Lady Gouyi?
Was it because he knew that Liu Ju was about to lose his position as crown prince, so he simply pulled Lady Gouyi down and died together with her?

Or do you want Your Majesty to take a step back?
However, just based on this point, it is too much to take it for granted!

"Your Majesty! Jing'er has just recovered and dreamed of Emperor Taizu Gao again. What he said now should not come true."

Liu Ju was the first to stand up. Although he was frightened, he did not forget to wink at Liu Jing.

He is too impatient!

What's the point of saying all this without any real solid evidence, other than alerting the enemy and making my father feel disgusted?

Do they really want to take back Lady Gouyi's "Yaomu Palace" on the charge of "promoting the wrong person"?
This is even more impossible!
Therefore, he must stand up now and take this topic back.

However, he wanted to take it back, but someone didn't want to.

"Your Majesty, the words of the grandson of the Emperor Jing are indeed bold, but Jiang Chong and Tan He and their ilk deceived Your Majesty with witchcraft and used it to commit crimes in Chang'an, causing unrest in the country!"

It was Li Guangli who suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Before, the news that the grandson of Emperor Jing offered auspicious signs and brought down sweet rain, and punished Tan He with thunder from heaven, had already spread throughout Chang'an. Now the grandson of Emperor Jing has dreamed that Emperor Taizu Gao was resurrected, and it is estimated that his name will spread throughout the world again!"

"Since the grandson of the Emperor Jing is valued by the Heaven and the Emperor Taizu Gao, the fact that he was poisoned before cannot be easily covered up... As a eunuch, why did Wang Bi poison him? The reason behind it must be investigated in detail!"

"But what Emperor Jing's grandson just said about the crown prince raising an army is just the son using his father's army. I cannot agree with it. If the son is using his father's army, the first time he used palace guards to arrest the alchemist of Shanglin Garden, it can barely be counted as it. But later he opened the armory, released prisoners, armed the people, defied the imperial edict, and started a war with Chang'an! It was already a rebellion!"

The ministers present have obviously realized that the current situation is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Liu Ju didn't want Liu Jing, who had just gained a little power, to be involved in the trouble.

But Li Guangli came out immediately, nominally speaking for Emperor Jing's grandson, but then he seemed to make a fair judgment on the prince's rebellion, but he pulled the prince's palace down again.

The purpose is obvious!

It means roasting Liu Jing on the fire.

Now that we have started this, we cannot stop easily. Let Lady Gouyi and the Crown Prince's Palace fight, the more miserable the fight, the better...

At this time, when Li Guangli said this, he did not notice that Liu Quti tried to hold him back several times, but seeing the former talking freely, he finally sighed helplessly.

The generals think they are smart, but with your little tricks, do you really think that everyone here is a fool?

It is best not to express your opinion or say anything at this time!

really……

Liu Che was seen watching coldly from above, taking in all the actions and expressions of the crowd.

At this moment, his expression was silent and serious, and no one could guess what was in his mind.

But he had just experienced that his close ministers were not trustworthy and that the powerful emperor, the grandson of the Poison Emperor in the Qimen Camp, felt that everyone now thought he was old!

Everyone is fighting!
Everyone is fighting!!!
Do you want to take sides as soon as possible and drag this old emperor down?

"Bing Ji!"

"I'm here!" Bing Ji stood up from his kneeling position, extremely respectful.

"I never thought that in this great Han Dynasty, there are still so many fair and law-abiding people. This is a good thing! It's really a great thing!"

"Since we have to handle the case according to the law, I will give you this opportunity."

"According to what Emperor Jing's grandson said, Lady Gouyi recommended Jiang Chong, and Jiang Chong recommended Tan He... What is the crime of 'recommending the wrong person'?"

Bing Ji saw this and sighed in his heart that Emperor Jing was not a truly wise man. Now that he was alive, he should not mention these things.

You know, since he was poisoned, His Majesty no longer asks about his previous offensive behavior. Isn't this a good thing?

Now that he has three miracles, all he needs to do in the future is show the image of a benevolent ruler. It's a pity that he has no chance.

Being young and full of energy, I missed a great opportunity.

Today's performance may have deterred those officials who were willing to join his army from making any moves!
He just pondered for a while, and then Bing Ji regained his composure and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty,"

"If you raise someone who is not your right name, you are indeed guilty."

"Your Majesty said when he first ascended the throne: Today's elections are not true, the evil and corrupt officials have not been removed, the powerful have asked for favors, the corrupt officials have been let go, and the people are sad and resentful, but have no one to tell. The officials should clearly report the crimes and correct the elections!"

"Although there is a saying of 'and the recommender'. But the recommender is recommended by the country, and the character of the recommended person is changeable and complex, so it is impossible to get a full picture of the whole picture! Therefore, if the recommended person commits a crime, if the recommender is unaware of it, the most he can do is to fine him, but the punishment should be light!"

As he spoke, he gave an example: "Zhang Bo, the Marquis of Fuping, once recommended Zhang Tang as a 'talented man' to enter the court, but Zhang Tang was imprisoned because he did not return to attend the funeral of his father." "Zhang Bo was punished by the court for not recommending him based on facts, and was deprived of 200 households!"

"But if you did it on purpose, you need to go to jail!"

He thought for a while and said, "In the fifth year of Yuanshuo, Shanyang Marquis Zhang Dangju was the Minister of Rites, but he was appointed as a doctor because of his favor. He was later discovered and sentenced to prison. Another disciple stole gold and was sentenced to prison!"

After Liu Che heard this, he just asked silently:

"Then according to your opinion, Madam Gouyi recommended Jiang Chong, and I selected him. What crime should be committed?"

"Plop" sound.

Bing Ji was so frightened that he knelt down immediately. He heard clearly the three words "I choose" here.

"How dare I say this to your Majesty? Your Majesty was deceived by Jiang Chong and other villains. Just for deceiving the emperor, their entire clan should be exterminated. As for Lady Gouyi, I think she was also deceived..."

Upon seeing this, Liu Che nodded and was about to make a move to expose the matter.

But I don’t want to think about the next moment.

"What the court judge said is unworthy of his duty!"

"Have you been deceived? The Chief Justice is not Madam Gouyi, why did you make such a decision so quickly?"

Liu Jing took a step forward and stared at Liu Che, as if he had grabbed a small handle on him and was determined not to let go.

Seeing Liu Jing standing up again, Liu Ju was shocked. He had revealed to his father not long ago that he had already prepared to lose his position as crown prince.

But didn’t he just remind this child?

The other ministers present were also shocked.

This grandson of Emperor Jing really does not regard his advantage as an advantage and is determined to offend Your Majesty!
Sure enough, Liu Jing did not retreat.

"Your Majesty, whether it was intentional or not, we have to investigate first!"

"Wang Bi is just a regular attendant and a close minister, and he has no descendants. Why would he cooperate with Tan He to poison me? This matter must be investigated thoroughly."

"Also... Jiang Chong, Su Wen and the other four, as well as Tan He and his ilk, should not have been in the court of the Han Dynasty. It is because of your majesty's favor that the bad consequences have come to pass. It is because of someone's recommendation that the bad consequences have come to pass."

"If you have done something wrong, you should be punished!"

"Your Majesty just said that Su Wen, Zhang Gan and others should be sentenced to death when they return to Chang'an! But the investigation has not been completed yet, so it is too early to sentence them to death now."

"As for your Majesty's belief in witchcraft, you have already admitted that you were deceived by the traitors."

"Then there are three things that must be corrected in time!"

"Jing'er!" Liu Ju called out in a low voice. If he had known this would happen, they should have found a place to have a long talk at night after he woke up and plan their future direction.

There is no need for him to rush around like this!
It’s too late to think about this now!
Because Liu Che had already looked over coldly, and feeling the sharp tone in his words, he suppressed his anger and said:
"I want to hear what the three things are."

Liu Jing looked into each other's eyes, feeling the silver stars overlapping again at this moment.

It also expresses his persistent purpose.

"First, since Your Majesty has recognized that there is no witchcraft, witchcraft is a poison used by treacherous people to harm people!"

"Quickly quell the witchcraft rebellion. We should announce it to the world as soon as possible, spread the word in Chang'an and all counties, and prohibit officials from using witchcraft to harm people again! It is forbidden for the people to report each other because of witchcraft! Your Majesty should set an example and not let the court use "witches" and "alchemists" as the standard for selecting talents."

"We should correct the mistakes and raise new people who are filial, righteous, and virtuous!"

"Two, "In the first year of Zhenghe, Gongsun Jingsheng was arrested and thrown into prison for embezzling the military funds of the Northern Army. But Gongsun He was innocent. After that, the chivalrous man Zhu Anshi said a few words and determined that he had buried witchcraft in the straight road, and thus his entire family was executed!"

"Since there was no witchcraft, what crime did the former prime minister commit to get executed?"

"Gongsun He should be cleared of all charges as soon as possible and admit that witchcraft is not a crime!"

"Only if the imperial court changes this example, can the counties and local vassal states understand the emperor's intentions and correct the customs of our Han Dynasty!"

"Third... Your Majesty has spent countless money entertaining alchemists and renovating palaces. Since you have decided to change your ways, you should go to the people in person to take a look. Don't be accompanied by guards, don't let Qimen and Yulin clear the roadside civilians, and give Your Majesty a wide and straight road."

"Instead, we will conduct a secret investigation, incognito, to see what the Great Emperor Gaozu said: the Han Empire...is like now!"

"Afterwards, Your Majesty should also make it known to the world and clearly state your faults!"
