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

Chapter 57 Amazing move!

Looking at Lady Gouyi who was crying bitterly and full of regret in front of him.

Liu Che stepped forward slowly, his voice without any anger, "What crime have you committed?"

Mrs. Gouyi raised her head, her tearful face made me feel pity for her.

"I shouldn't have recommended Jiang Chong. He came back from the Xiongnu to visit the Yaomu Palace. I heard that he was sent to the Xiongnu by Your Majesty, so I wanted to meet him. But I didn't expect that he had a vicious heart..."

"You just found him a job to do. At first, I only gave him an embroidered robe envoy." Liu Che bent down and helped Lady Gouyi up. "Later, he was rigid and unsympathetic. I promoted him because I thought he was a talent. In the end, he was promoted to the position of Water Transport Commandant, and it was also because I let him do that!"

"Now that this has happened, if you want to say it's my fault, are you going to say it's my fault?"

Lady Gouyi bent down in fear and was about to bow again, "I dare not."

"That's enough." Liu Che held her hand, feeling the softness in her palm. "You gave me a son, Yao. How could I not believe you?"

"Jiang Chong was promoted by me. He had some conflicts with the crown prince before. I think it was because of these minor conflicts that he took the risk and tried to frame him with witchcraft..."

At this point, Liu Che paused for a moment, "But it's all in the past. Besides, who knows what the prince is thinking? Witchcraft may not harm people, but what about his heart? Who knows his heart?"

"This time he has even raised an army, opened the armory, released prisoners, and ordered the civilians and prisoners to wear armor. I can tolerate him, but the civilians cannot, the officials of the Han Dynasty cannot, and neither the Han laws nor the ancestral laws can tolerate him!"

When talking about this, Liu Che's voice was decisive, as if he had made the decision long ago.

"I have already drafted the imperial edict and will issue it as soon as I return to Chang'an!"

Feeling the weight of Liu Che's words, Lady Gouyi's frightened expression finally eased.

But when I think about the person who really caused the changes in the celestial phenomena these days, and who even "resurrected from the dead" today and dreamed of Emperor Taizu Gao's grandson, Emperor Jing.

Her heart sank again.

"But your majesty asked the grandson of the emperor Jing to investigate the case... I heard that the grandson of the emperor Jing has already stated that it was I who recommended Jiang Chong. Otherwise, let me meet this grandson of the emperor and explain the whole story to him, so that the grandson of the emperor Jing will not misunderstand and delay the investigation for your majesty."

"Humph!"

Unexpectedly, Liu Che, who heard this, suddenly snorted coldly:
"You mean this kid?"

"At first, I thought this boy was a smart guy, a man with a ulterior motive, who could come to see me under the pretext of offering auspicious signs. This move alone is much better than those people in Changle Palace and the Prince's Palace. He is bold and careful, brave and resourceful..."

At this point, Liu Che seemed to think of what happened before, and said:

"But who knows, I may also be wrong about people."

"This guy is a stubborn person. Before he even met me, he dared to say that I was old and demented. After he met me, he came straight to the point and said that I condoned Jiang Chong in order to depose the crown prince!"

When Madam Gouyi heard this, she opened her mouth slightly, as if she was shocked, "Is the grandson of the Emperor Jing so bold?"

"You've heard it before, so why are you still surprised? This time, he wrote a "Vow to Pay Back" in front of all the ministers and continued to point out my faults. He even dared to chop off Jiang Chong's head in front of everyone! The series of events that followed made me even more certain... This guy's head is made of stone. He has no brains and only knows how to rush around recklessly. What's the difference between him and an ordinary man?"

"After he came back to life, I figured it out... Perhaps only he could pray for rain successfully, and only he could make Emperor Taizu Gao enter his dream, and only he could receive the blessing of heaven."

At this point, Liu Che could not help but say, "Since that is the case, I don't expect much from him. I'll let him handle the case this time and let him be stubborn and confront others. He wants to correct the atmosphere in Chang'an. I want to see how he corrects it."

Lady Gouyi listened to Liu Che's comments on Emperor Jing's grandson.

He seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. Such an upright grandson of the emperor seemed... not that difficult to deal with.

"How blessed am I to have such trust from Your Majesty."

Lady Gouyi burst into tears again.

Liu Che reached out and wiped away her tears, his eyes were soft and deep.

"I know what I should do, what I am doing, and what I will do... You don't have to worry all day long."

"Pack up and return to Chang'an tomorrow."

When mentioning Chang'an, Liu Che's face became serious.

"That's where I will make great efforts next."

Lady Gouyi nodded, and the two of them quickly entered the bedroom.

One night passed...

The next day.

On the road from Jianzhang Palace to Chang'an, there was an endless stream of carriages and horses, with the Qimen Yulin leading the way...

However, there was an endless stream of people on both sides of the road. Even if the Qimen Yulin wanted to drive them away, they couldn't because there were too many people. They could only stand on both sides of the road to prevent the crowd from further occupying the road and let the officials and His Majesty's carriages go first.

Some officials were sitting on horses and could hear what everyone was saying clearly.

"Where is the Grandson of the Emperor Jing? I heard that it rained the night before yesterday. Was it related to the Grandson of the Emperor Jing?"

"More than that, there were lightning and thunder that night. People who were close to Jianzhang Palace could even see the golden roof of the God Platform. It was like a god descending, shocking the world!"

Someone asked quietly, "Is it possible that the grandson of Emperor Jing was murdered by a traitor and resurrected?"

"You also know what happened yesterday. They said that Emperor Gaozu appeared in spirit, and many people saw it. In the end, even His Majesty had to take a step back and gave Grandson Jing the power to investigate this witchcraft incident and even investigate the alchemists!"

"Do you think it will happen..." Someone said cautiously, "Your Majesty did this because he received instructions from Emperor Taizu Gao to train Emperor Jing's grandson as the crown prince!"

That person uttered the word "Crown Prince" in a very low voice, but when the people around heard it, they couldn't help but make a loud noise.

"Is it true?" "How can it be false? Just wait and see. The prince has started an uprising this time, released prisoners and opened the armory. He will definitely fail. But Your Majesty cannot let the country be without a crown prince. Look, you give Jing Huangsun such a large authority."

"They say they want to correct the atmosphere in Chang'an! They even want to promote it nationwide!"

"Look... If it's not the crown prince, who would use such words? Who can correct the trend in Chang'an and promote it throughout the country?"

As more and more voices join the discussion, similar noises become louder and louder.

A place not far from the center.

Liu Quti and Li Guangli rode on horseback.

In the Han Dynasty, there was almost no distinction between the three dukes and nine ministers. A military general could also be prime minister, and even if he was not a marquis, he could not serve as prime minister!

The Imperial Censor, who was in charge of supervising all officials, could also mount a horse and take up a sword to fight against the Huns.

As the two walked, they also heard the discussions around them.

"Look at how many fools there are among the people." Liu Quti laughed and said, "How long did it take to sleep for you to connect all these things together?"

Li Guangli also laughed and said, "They are still too idle. We need to send more people to do labor..."

"No!" Suddenly, Liu Quti seemed to remember something. "Why did something that happened last night spread so quickly? It seems that the whole Chang'an knows about it today."

Li Guangli was also stunned when he heard this. "Yes, it shouldn't be so fast. The Yulin of Shanglin Garden wouldn't say anything..."

"It's bad!" Suddenly, Liu Quti seemed to think of something, turned his horse around and ordered it to run around the entire team.

When he came back, his face was solemn.

There was a mixture of disbelief and surprise in his eyes as if he had discovered a secret.

"How audacious! He is really so audacious! I have made many calculations and have already seen the courage of the grandson of the Emperor Jing, but I didn't expect that he would still exceed my expectations!"

Li Guangli still hasn't reacted yet, "What happened?"

"Guess what he did last night?" Liu Quti stared, as if he still couldn't believe it.

Li Guangli didn't understand.

Liu Quti did not keep the secret and laughed loudly, saying, "He released all those civilians and prisoners who followed the crown prince to start the rebellion and were imprisoned in Qimen and Yulinying last night!"

"Ah?" Li Guangli also stared with a look of disbelief.

"He's crazy!?"

"He hasn't checked the errand that His Majesty gave him yesterday!"

The two looked at each other, and while they were shocked, they couldn't help but look down on him a little more.

"Is there really such a great grandson of the emperor who loves the people in our Han Dynasty? How could such a brave but foolish person get on the stage of officialdom?"

"I'll tell your Majesty right away! I just told your Majesty yesterday that I would be responsible for investigating witchcraft and correcting the social atmosphere... Your Majesty originally wanted him to discipline the ministers, but he didn't expect that the first person to be disciplined would be your Majesty?"

"Haha, now it seems...what's the difference between him and the previous kind and benevolent prince?"

"On your first day in office, you want to overturn the verdict?"

……

at the same time.

Liu Jing was riding a horse. He looked up and saw that Liu Ju was nervous and Liu Jin was also very frightened.

Shi De looked at him several times, wanting to say something, but in the end he just took a few steps away and said nothing more.

Instead, it was on the other side, in the middle carriage.

"Liu Jing!" A voice filled with unspeakable anger suddenly rang out from the carriage.

Huo Guang, Jin Midi and other captains who were accompanying the carriage immediately looked towards Liu Jing...

They have just found out about this.

Now, His Majesty has given him a task, which is to let him investigate the ministers and find out why Wang Bi cooperated with Tan He!
Ask him to investigate the relationship between these alchemists and court officials!

It is to investigate whether Jiang Chong, Su Wen and other four people framed the prince!

It is to give him the courage to do what he said - to eliminate the alchemists and correct the social atmosphere!

Instead of empty talk and paper talk!

The results of it.

Instead of doing his proper job, he did something completely unrelated for the first time, releasing those unruly people who dared to accompany the prince in rebellion!
He was so bold that he didn't even try to hide it! Did he really think that this uprising was innocent?

Or is it that this stubborn grandson of the emperor really does not regard the mission promised by His Majesty as a sign of appreciation for him, as the people around him say?
Don’t tell me, it’s really possible!

Huo Guang's heart trembled. From this point of view, could it be that he thought he was going to become the crown prince, so he took the initiative to win the hearts of the people?
No way?
Obviously, His Majesty in the carriage thought the same, and at this moment, the sound of anger had already roared.

"Let him come!"

"I want to ask him, what does he want to do?"
