Chapter 68: There is only one person in the Han Dynasty who can call the wind and rain!
"Grandson Jing! How dare you!"

Almost at the moment of hearing the last sentence, Bing Ji's voice suddenly became sharp.

His hair stood on end and he felt that the imperial grandson in front of him was a real lunatic.

Even though they had seen Emperor Jing's grandson so bold in Jianzhang Palace before.

But now that it has come to this, why do you still dare to disrespect your Majesty?
"Grandson Jing, you are no longer blessed by heaven! You have incurred the wrath of heaven!"

He warned: "The emperor asked us to convict you, you must think it over carefully before speaking..."

As for Dong Gongzhong, he had no idea what had happened, whether in Ganquan Palace or Jianzhang Palace.

Hearing Liu Jing's outrageous words at this moment, he was horrified but also felt extremely excited.

it is good!
it is good!
When His Majesty heard these words, even if he still had doubts about his uncle, they disappeared under his anger.

In this way, my uncle will not be afraid that Your Majesty will not agree to the request made by Penglai Fairyland.

"Whether it is God's blessing or God's wrath, your words have no say."

"And...what crime does the emperor want me to confess?" Liu Jing asked in a cold voice.

It is not only to accumulate luck points, but also his sincere words.

"Grandson of the Emperor Jing, it's already this time. I've just told you so much, but you still don't understand?" Court Justice Bing Ji couldn't bear it any longer.

Liu Jingze thought about what he had just said.

"Is it because of the Vow Fulfillment Memorial? Is there a single word wrong in the Vow Fulfillment Memorial? Your Majesty did not build large-scale projects? Did not employ cruel officials? Did not engage in excessive military expansion?"

"It is wrong to disobey the emperor! A son should not speak of his father's faults, let alone the prince. Even if His Majesty has done something wrong, it is not your turn to speak! Besides, the emperor is infallible!"

Bao Shengzhi was able to be promoted from an ordinary embroidered robe envoy to the position of Imperial Censor.

His admiration for Liu Che was deep in his bones.

From the very beginning, when Liu Jing repeatedly pointed out Liu Che's mistakes, he was extremely angry with him, and he had even had a conflict with him in the Supreme Court before.

But in his opinion, it doesn't matter if you have conflicts with him.

But repeatedly making outrageous remarks against Your Majesty is a capital crime!

There was no such thing as exempting the emperor from punishment in the Han Dynasty. If a prince angered the emperor and committed a serious mistake, he would still not escape death.

"The prince was indeed speechless, but father did it with his actions."

Feeling the strands of gold appearing on the lucky coin, Liu Jing immediately perked up.

And just this one sentence from him immediately changed the expression of Bao Shengzhi, who was talking so eloquently just now.

Because the prince did raise an army.

"If the Imperial Censor really wants to find fault with the past vow repayment petition, he can go back and read it word by word to see which word is wrong, and then ask me to admit my mistake."

"Also... Your Majesty never said it before, is there any need for you to say it?"

Liu Jing didn't give him a chance to refute and just threw the topic back.

The rage of sudden victory.

But on the other side, Dong Gongzhong had already spoken.

"Grandson Jing! The Imperial Censor will not argue with you about your bold and outrageous remarks. We will convict you when the time comes."

"But what you did in Chang'an, expelling the alchemists, caused the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people. The immortals all said that the immortal foundation was lost because of this. Isn't this your fault?"

Liu Jing looked at the other person with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"What is immortal foundation? The alchemist you are talking about is an immortal foundation?"

"It is the will of the Son of Heaven to expel the alchemists!"

Dong Gongzhong rebuked him, "The emperor only asked you to expel witches, but you deliberately expanded it, causing the people of the capital to suffer. This made the heavens angry, and that's why my uncle came down the mountain."

"If not for this, the Han Dynasty's Chang'an would have been in turmoil because of you."

Liu Jing smiled.

At this moment, he was ready to argue with the scholars. "If the alchemists leave Chang'an, the people will live and work in peace! Without the alchemists in Chang'an, the food and money saved could have been used to help the disaster victims long ago."

"And what is the ability of your so-called uncle to call you an immortal?"

"The last person who called himself a celestial being or a master in front of me, Tan He, has now turned into charcoal!"

Dong Gongzhong was furious. "You..."

Then he remembered something, reacted, and laughed hurriedly: "Even now, you still want to deceive the world. The thunder on the altar was originally meant to kill you. In the end, you tricked Tan He and made you a scapegoat!"

He looked at everyone and thought of his uncle's explanation.

He said quickly: "You all don't know that the heavens gave him the auspicious sign because they saw that he had the fate of longevity, so they let this grandson of the Emperor Jing be sent to Your Majesty to benefit the world."

"But who would have thought that, for the sake of his own selfish interests in the Crown Prince's Palace, he would actually rebel against his superiors. His actions and words shocked the world and were unacceptable to the laws of heaven and the country."

"He claimed to be petitioning at the God's Platform, but in fact he did not mend his ways and continued to commit crimes. This angered the Heavens, who could no longer tolerate it, so after the first rain, he sent down thunder to punish the place where he petitioned."

"But he should have been alert at that time, and deceived Tan He, which led to Tan He's suffering."

"Alas... this move has allowed this grandson of the Emperor Jing to deceive the world once again!"

Dong Gongzhong had an expression that showed he knew everything and was in control of the actual information.

Now, he wants to make it clear to everyone.

"Also... the Thunder Fire Golden Summit, this scene appeared after it was built. This is not the first time it appeared because of Emperor Jing's grandson."

"At this time, anyone who has stayed in Shanglin Garden for a long time knows it, and Doctor Gongsun is an eyewitness. If you don't believe it, you can ask him."

After explaining, he looked at Liu Jing and said angrily:

"Now that you, the grandson of the Emperor Jing, have been abandoned by the heavens, what merits do you have to dare to talk about Tan He here again? And talk about the mistakes of your Majesty again?"

This was the first time Liu Jing heard this statement.

In a flash, Liu Jing thought of General Wencheng, who had entered the palace and caused Liu Che to no longer conceal his true identity.

He sees it now.

Among the people in front of him, only Dong Gongzhong was in the middle of it, so what he occasionally said could reveal some information to him.

Want to know more.

So Liu Jing asked directly: "Since you, the alchemist, are so sure, why don't you follow Tan He's example and go to the Shenming Terrace again?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

"I'm going too!" Liu Jing's voice was very firm. "You and I, let's go to the Shenming Terrace together."

"When the time comes, if thunder really falls from the sky, let's see whether it will kill you or me?"

This statement came out.

Bing Ji and Bao Shengzhi standing next to them were obviously tempted.

Mang Tong was behind him, silently taking note of the matter.

however.

Dong Gongzhong's face immediately changed and he said, "Why should I compete with you, a person despised by the heavens? Moreover, the God's Terrace is such a small place, how can I escape the thunder from the heavens?"

After saying this, he didn't want anyone to try anything against him.

So we quickly got off topic.

Point out what Your Majesty said at the beginning, the third crime of Emperor Jing’s grandson!

"Grandson Jing, don't talk about changes in the weather with wind, thunder, rain and dew at this time."

He emphasized this, and at the same time, was warning the people around him not to mention what had just happened.

"Now, disaster victims continue to pour in from the northwest of Chang'an, near Bingzhou, Yuzhou, and other places... all because they believed the rumors you, Grandson Jing, had spread!"

"Nowadays, droughts occur frequently every year, but recently only the Chang'an area has had rainfall... When the victims heard about it, they flocked here!"

"You not only deceived the heavens, but also deceived the people and the victims, causing human disasters to happen again in Chang'an!" "Master Uncle has long said... Mars is interfering with Ziwei. Chang'an should have seen a big change recently, but for Your Majesty, it was a close call!"

"But because you angered the heavens, the destiny of the universe has been disrupted. With so many victims, a single careless move could lead to a man-made disaster! And I'm afraid we're only about seven days away from Chang'an."

What Dong Gongzhong said was what the ministers were most concerned about during this period.

Mang Tong also knew that the imperial court had discussed this issue several times.

very beginning.

In fact, those led by Sang Hongyang had not thought of this yet.

After all, Chang'an, as the capital of the Han Dynasty, is the best place to survive. In previous years, there were indeed disaster victims who flocked to Chang'an, but not many... Too many disaster victims knew that it was useless to go to Chang'an. After all, there were too many people and accidents were easy to happen on the road.

Once a civil uprising occurs, rivers of blood will flow and the people will die.

This time, however, there were too many people.

Unexpectedly, these disaster victims did not revolt or engage in infighting along the way. There were even reports that some people with ulterior motives wanted to gather tens of thousands of people and occupy the city as they had done in the past.

If there are fewer people, they can become kings of the mountains and become bandits!

But strangely, few people responded!

It seems that in everyone's eyes, there is a common goal.

As long as everyone goes there, they can survive, and the heavens will be able to open their eyes and send down a rain of blessings...

In the end, Huo Guang and Jin Midi simultaneously analyzed a possibility that they would never have thought of in the past -

Auspicious!

To be precise, it is the emperor’s grandson God bless—Liu Jing!
Almost a month has passed since the first rain from heaven.

The news spread too fast!
For the people who were suffering from drought and had not seen any rain for a long time, the rumors about Liu Jing were more attractive to them than the people in Chang'an who had experienced the "rain"!

It was precisely because of this that such an absurd scene occurred, which only the top leaders of the Han Dynasty realized belatedly.

At this time, Mang Tong, as the inner court's minister, had to come out and say:

"Grandson Jing, it's not that we really want to punish you today, nor are we deliberately making things difficult for you. It's really this fault that you must admit..."

Tingwei Bingji couldn't help but say:

"Half a month ago, you wanted to use the case of Gongsun He and his son to force His Majesty to mend his ways... At that time, His Majesty tolerated you."

"But today, the Immortal descended and told us the reason. He confirmed the speculations of the people in the inner court."

"This is all because you changed the celestial phenomena, which caused the wrath of heaven!"

now……

Listening to the words of the people in front of me, which were half warnings and half complaints.

Liu Jing finally restored the truth of some things in his mind.

It seems.

That "General Wencheng" must have been prepared in advance, otherwise, he would not have combined the recent events, the future events, and even the celestial phenomena that Liu Jing was not aware of...

This has formed such a "perfect" rhetoric that is full of "reason" and has no flaws.

No wonder His Majesty believed it.

Coupled with the so-called illusion of "seeing the wonderland of Penglai", Liu Jing has guessed everything.

only……

"Is this how you treat a disaster? Do you think that by asking me to admit a false fault, you can treat the disaster?"

The more he thought about it, the more absurd it seemed to him that the current emperor actually believed the alchemist's arguments.

"Droughts are frequent, but the people have no food to survive. Who is responsible for this?"

"There is no food, no money for disaster relief. Who is to blame for this?"

"The court wants me to admit my fault today. I wonder which idiot thinks that the people will retreat? Why would they retreat?"

"When they heard that I had angered the heavens, would they think that there would be no more rain and retreat? Whose explanation is this? Who came up with this solution?"

"besides……"

Liu Jing looked coldly at the people in front of him.

If it was before, he would have deliberately angered the people in front of him, acting as a consumable to increase his luck value.

Now, he was really angry.

"As ministers of the imperial court, you do not investigate the root cause, but use superficial pretexts to deceive the world. Who has incurred the wrath of heaven?"

"Even if you can use me to escape this time, what about next time? What about the next time?"

"Over the years, there have been constant uprisings in various parts of the Han Dynasty, and the people have risen up everywhere. Do you really think that the scene at the end of the Qin Dynasty is an exaggeration?"

"You still want to treat the symptoms instead of the root cause?"

"Your Majesty, is he really so old and foolish that he can't even distinguish this matter?"

"Grandson of Emperor Jing!" Bao Shengzhi trembled all over when he heard this. As a loyal fan of Liu Che, he even wanted to kill this unfilial descendant on behalf of His Majesty!

however.

At this moment, Liu Jing didn't give face to anyone at all.

He looked at the people in front of him, his voice carrying a chill.

"It has come to this. Since you want me to plead guilty,"

"Then I have to say what I should say, and I will also say what I shouldn't say."

Liu Jing took a deep breath.

I just let out my anger and yelled...

"Now that natural disasters and man-made disasters have come, Your Majesty does not solve them, but instead believes in the so-called immortals?"

"Where is the scenery of Penglai? It's nothing but an illusion!"

"There is no such thing as a so-called immortal. They are just people who deceive the emperor."

"If Your Majesty persists in his mistake, he is the one who caused the Han Dynasty to fall into disaster and sufferers from the frequent floods to Chang'an! Not me!"

"Shut up!" His eyes were red with anger and veins bulged in his cheeks.

He was born as an Embroidered Robe Envoy and a rebel who suppressed rebellions and started uprisings.

I have truly seen the lower class of people and I have truly seen rivers of blood.

And precisely because of this, what Liu Jing said at this moment created a huge impact in his mind.

On the one hand, it seems that what he said is true, and on the other hand, it is loyalty to His Majesty...

"Don't say anymore, don't say anymore!" He wanted to stop Liu Jing.

However, in anger at this moment, Liu Jing simply made wild remarks and was even more arrogant!
"Go and tell His Majesty!"

"Nowadays... in the entire Han Dynasty, there is only one person who can call the wind and rain."

"That's me, Liu Jing!"

"Only one person can protect me from the wind and rain!"

"That's still me, Liu Jing!"

 third chapter.

  I know that the appearance of General Wencheng in the first few chapters was a bit boring, but I was really laying the groundwork, otherwise there would be no subsequent plot, and it would be a bit inconsistent for you to watch.

  But now that it has reached its climax, he should write less.

  I will continue updating when I wake up tomorrow!
