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

Chapter 73 Occupy the high ground and attack with the wind!
In an instant, everyone looked towards Liu Jing, and Li Shaoweng's expression did not seem fake.

They recalled everything that had just happened. Could it be that so many people could see that scene at the same time...

"It's not me who made you obsessed with Penglai."

Liu Jing looked around.

He was very interested in Li Shaoweng's "trick". If he learned it himself, he could really use it on Liu Che when the time was right.

But now, he wants to take advantage of the situation, hit you head-on, and throw all the frustration accumulated in the past two days back to you!

really.

Liu Che, Empress Wei, Huo Guang, and Li Shaoweng himself all realized the other meaning in his words.

It’s not you who is obsessed with Penglai?
"Then seeing the same scene..." Liu Che asked immediately.

"It's me."

Liu Jing did not hide it, and in fact he didn't want to hide it.

For others, angering His Majesty could mean the entire family could lose their heads.

But to him, it is nutrients and fertilizer!

call!
Li Shao Weng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Grandson Jing admitted it, it would have nothing to do with him. However, he just had this thought...

"However, Li Shaoweng deceived your majesty with a poison that can cause people to have hallucinations! He deceived everyone. It is because your majesty longs for immortality that he regards it as a divine method."

"You're still talking about Penglai? You've used it so many times, how many times have you smelled this strange fragrance? I'm afraid your life spans have been shortened a lot."

As soon as these words came out.

Li Shaoweng showed fear on his face.

Huo Guang, Jin Midi, Sang Hongyang and others were stunned at first, and then looked at Liu Jing in confusion.

"Of course, smelling it once or twice may only give you a splitting headache. But if you smell it too much, toxins will inevitably accumulate in your body, especially for the elderly. If the toxins cannot be excreted, it will be a big problem."

Liu Jing? This was a very specific statement.

Huo Guang, Jin Midi and others felt their tension ease a little. After thinking about it carefully, they realized that this was spoken directly to His Majesty.

They didn't dare to say anything more, but recalled the past, it seemed that what Jing Huangsun said was indeed true. When they first experienced "Penglai", they felt drowsy after waking up.

Liu Che's reaction was even more intense. In the past few days, when he was sleeping, he woke up in the middle of the night again and fell into a drowsy state.

At first, I thought that it was the prince's family or Liu Jing who had angered me.

but now……

“Grandson Jing, please stop slandering me! The people around me, and myself, have never felt any discomfort… On the contrary, this fairy mist has prolonged our lives.”

Li Shaoweng was very anxious when he realized something was wrong. He was a smart man and quickly changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, the most important thing to talk about now is that Grandson Jing made Your Majesty and others enter the so-called hell!"

"What hell?" Liu Jing looked at Huo Guang and the others, "Is that hell? I went in there too, and I saw my own death!"

Liu Jing's words left them all speechless.

This was indeed true. Liu Jing and his third brother fell at the door of the thatched house.

"To me, it was a warning! A warning from God!"

At this moment, Liu Jing recalled the past.

"If I hadn't sent auspicious signs to Your Majesty, and the rain hadn't fallen from the sky, what you just saw was exactly what was about to happen to this big man. It was the rain that changed everything. If not for this..."

"My grandmother will hang herself, my father will hang himself, my brother will be killed, and my third brother and I will also be killed!"

"enough!"

Suddenly, with every word Liu Jing said, those scenes appeared involuntarily in Liu Che's mind, and at this moment, they had become his inner demon.

Because he saw everything with his own eyes!
However, Liu Jing did not stop. As he had said before, he was arrested and taken to the Supreme Court two days ago. Now was the time for him to fight back.

"Chang'an will be flooded with blood, and the people will be killed and injured in large numbers. The blood of tens of thousands of people will dye the ground of Chang'an red! Although the heavens may not send down the sweet rain, the world will have its own 'sweet rain'!"

"enough!"

Liu Che opened his eyes in anger. This was the scene he least wanted to see.

Until now, he still remembers the bloody footprints he left in Chang'an as he walked step by step.

"My father is dead, and your majesty is satisfied! What will the future of the Han Dynasty be like? Has your majesty achieved immortality? The Han Dynasty, which has been plagued by natural disasters and man-made calamities, is falling apart internally. External worries are constant, and the Xiongnu has been getting stronger and stronger in recent years..."

"Will the Han Dynasty fall?"

The last question was like a piercing blow to the heart, making Liu Che's face turn pale.

His outstretched hand was trembling, but finally, this emperor of fifty years suddenly shouted angrily: "But this did not happen!"

"That's why you have to thank me!"

At this moment, Liu Jing felt that the lucky coins began to accumulate again, and soon they turned silver.

"I prayed to the gods at the Divine Platform, and I saved Chang'an from the greatest disaster! I saved the lives of tens of thousands of people in Chang'an, and I saved the Han Dynasty from danger!"

"But what is your Majesty doing? Your Majesty believes in the so-called immortals and thinks that it is not God's blessing, but God's wrath!"

"Your Majesty still wants me to enter the Supreme Court and let them interrogate me?"

"What am I guilty of?"

At this moment, Liu Jing asked repeatedly, now is the time to complete the goal. He had made many preparations before coming to Weiyang Palace, and now is the time to show up.

"I have eliminated the treacherous ministers around your majesty, killed Jiang Chong, beheaded Tan He! I have tried Su Wen, Zhang Gan, Chang Rong, and Han Shuo. I will have them executed! I will also eliminate the alchemists in Chang'an to correct the customs of my Han Dynasty!"

"But what is your majesty doing? As a ruler, you go back on your word on what you promised. If you don't want to acknowledge my mistakes, you want to treat me like Zhang Tang and throw me away! I killed the wizard, and your majesty welcomed the immortal back?"

"Who in my great Han Dynasty has provoked the wrath of heaven?"

now.

All the ministers looked at this scene in great astonishment. Grandson Jing the Emperor really had no scruples. The scene before them was so similar to the past, even more offensive than before!

As the queen who had accompanied Liu Che for decades, although Wei Zifu had heard about what Liu Jing had done during this period, she was still shocked when she saw it with her own eyes.

In the entire Han Dynasty, who dares to do this?

Liu Ju clenched his palms even more tightly. At this moment, he seemed to put himself into the situation. He deeply agreed with every word Liu Jing said and wished he could participate in it.

But after thinking about it, he still held back.

All the ministers thought that Emperor Jing's grandson should have finished talking here, but they did not expect Liu Jing to continue angrily:

"Before, I wanted to make the case of Gongsun He known to the world. His crimes should be clearly listed and those who deserve to be punished should be punished! Instead of harming the world with untraceable witchcraft, I want the laws of the Han Dynasty to be fair and strict!"

"But what is Your Majesty doing? You are tolerating cruel officials! You are handling many unjust cases! You are making the people of the world tremble in fear, and you are allowing the Han laws to become a tool for others' selfishness!"

At this moment, Liu Jing returned to the starting point of this conflict. As he said before, he wanted to establish a symbol in the Han Dynasty - after the case was established and the law was fair, the chaos in the Han Dynasty would gradually subside!

Therefore, he finally said:

"You can't cover up everything by pretending to be confused!"

"Chang'an can still be peaceful today; you can still sit here in peace; the people from all directions no longer have to worry about false accusations; they can still farm in peace...Chang'an has not been stained red with blood."

"It's all because of me!"

"You all...are the ones who are reaping the benefits of others' achievements!"

……

Dead!

Under Liu Jing's series of rebukes, everyone in the hall looked at each other in a daze.

Does Emperor Jing really dare to say such things?
At this moment... Li Shaoweng, who had been watching, had already regretted it a little. Before he went down the mountain, Dong Gongzhong said that the Hu witches around His Majesty had been eradicated, and how the grandson of Emperor Jing had offended the ministers and His Majesty...

If he went down now, he only needed to give His Majesty a "chance" to speak, and he would be able to enjoy wealth and glory, and be comparable to Tan He in the past... No! He could even be more powerful than Tan He, and be truly second to none and above ten thousand people!
Moreover, if a hundred years pass, Your Majesty might become a truly powerful official...

Results now.

In the grand vision of the future, it is clearly stated that the "Grandson of Emperor Jing" is hated by His Majesty and his ministers, and they all want to take the opportunity to get rid of him.

At this moment, it was like an insurmountable mountain to him.

Let him look up to you like a mountain!

At the same time, contrary to everyone's expectations, Liu Che remained silent at this moment.

Because Liu Jing’s previous words don’t matter.

There was one thing even he had to admit.

If there hadn't been that rain from heaven... the incomparably real feeling of blood before, the shattering of Chang'an, and his impending death, he would not have been able to see the future of the Han Dynasty...

That feeling of despair and sadness is no longer a feeling, but a true portrayal!

The big man is everything to him!
Whether the Han Dynasty can be prosperous and strong, whether the name of the powerful Han Dynasty that he created can shine through the ages like the sun in the sky, is more important to him than anything else!

And now, Liu Che remained silent, making the atmosphere even more awkward.

Finally, Huo Guang couldn't stand it anymore and immediately came to the rescue, "Grandson Jing, Your Majesty is also in trouble..."

"Now that there are so many disaster victims, if you don't try every means to temporarily keep your name of God's Blessing sealed, those people are rushing to Chang'an... If something goes wrong, they will be instigated by some of them, and these huge number of disaster victims may become rebels and bandits!"

"It's so close to Chang'an. If we're not careful, disaster will befall us!"

After these words were spoken, all the ministers present fell silent.

Even Liu Ju frowned. He had been the crown prince for decades, but in recent years the people's lives had become increasingly difficult, with more and more bandits and even civil uprisings.

The Han people have now reached the most critical moment.

"Right, right, right!" Just at this moment, Li Shaoweng also said immediately: "I have said it before, when Mars disturbs Ziwei, the Han Dynasty will surely be in trouble!"

"Since Emperor Jing's grandson has asked for the rain to avert the great disaster in Chang'an, it is bound to cause an even greater disaster!"

"The catastrophe will not disappear. If you don't take the initiative to deal with it and resolve it, it will only get bigger and bigger!"

"Shut up!" Liu Che looked at him suddenly. He had not yet settled the score with him and was thinking of dealing with him later.

Liu Jing had also output enough at this moment, and looked at the lucky coin, which was already covered with silver, with golden stars emerging in it...

He looked at Huo Guang, "If the word gets out that I'm not Tianyou, will that solve the problem?"

"Have you ever thought that since they were able to come here in the name of my God's Blessing, and they were not instigated by too many ambitious people to rebel or occupy the mountains as bandits?"

"It's because they have hope to survive!"

"But if the rumor spreads now that the name of Tianyou is false, and you have angered the heavens as you said..."

"What will happen if that hope is dashed?"

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent and horrified.

But, no one here is a fool. If Liu Jing can consider it, they must have considered it a long time ago.

"This is... not a solution." Sang Hongyang, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up. "The court has been out of money for a long time. Chang'an has suffered from drought for several consecutive years. We have only been able to be self-sufficient in food these years..."

This statement might not even fool him, so Sang Hongyang changed the subject and said, "In fact, it was transported from other vassal states."

"Your Majesty moved the richest people in the world to Chang'an, which solved the urgent problem. These people can buy food from other places, which is why Chang'an can always be self-sufficient."

"As for now, we must stop more disaster victims from going to Chang'an, so the grandson of Emperor Jing recognized him..."

"As for the victims who have already arrived, their hopes have been dashed. Perhaps something unexpected will indeed happen... The court can only prepare early."

Be prepared early.

Four light words.

Liu Jing had even heard from Bing Ji and Bao Shengzhi that a large army should be mobilized to forcibly suppress the rebels!

In fact, this has been the Han Dynasty's rule over the years.

"Can you kill them all?"

Suddenly, Liu Jing shouted.

Everyone was stunned.

But Liu Jing looked directly at Liu Che, "Is this the strong Han that Your Majesty has created? Why are there so many victims and the popular uprising so strong? Why is the court forced to mobilize the army?"

After three questions in a row, Liu Che became furious.

He deliberately tolerated what Liu Jing had just said.

But he could not tolerate any criticism or even admonition from anyone towards his big man!
The prince is like this!

This is especially true for Liu Jing!

At this moment, Liu Che glared angrily, and he finally shouted out what he had always wanted to say in his heart.

"Today, the Han people have become like this..."

"It's not my fault! It's God's fault!"

When these words were spoken, all the ministers were shocked!

Since Your Majesty accepted Dong Zhongshu's divine right, you have accepted the establishment of the Son of Heaven.

But now, you are blaming the sky?

"For more than ten years, drought, locust plague, and epidemics have come one after another, and there are as many as several times every year!"

"I have heard too many people blaming me for my mistakes."

"Not only you have said it, Dongfang Shuo has said it, Ji An has said it, Sima Qian has said it, and I have also read some of the history books he is compiling..."

"I am tolerant and can let them all live."

"But you are using the heavens to accuse me, I won't admit it!"

Liu Che waved his sleeves, and at this moment, he showed his true imperial character.

"When Dong Zhongshu talked about divine authority granted by heaven, he should also add a "heaven" above me. I use it because it is useful to me, not because it is right."

"It's the same today... What's the point of pointing out the problem? If I can come up with a solution like Dong Zhongshu, I can just add another sky above my head. What's the difficulty?"

Liu Jing stood up suddenly and said, "Then I will add another sky above your Majesty's head!"

"Under the rule of our late Emperor Xiaowen, the people were still able to be self-sufficient when disasters struck. Previously, I have said in the "Vow Return" that during your reign, Your Majesty has been engaged in large-scale construction projects, engaged in war, abused cruel officials, and extorted money from the people. As a result, the people no longer have the ability to resist natural disasters or man-made disasters!"

“This is the root cause!”

"As a result, there are constant uprisings, victims of disasters are unaware, and bandits are endless..."

"Moreover, His Majesty himself has issued a decree——"

""The Law of Sinking Life"!"

Liu Che turned his head suddenly and glared at Liu Jing.

Liu Jing continued, "Your Majesty, you don't have to look at me like that... For so many years, Your Majesty has used cruel officials to extort money, abused the people's power, built palaces, and launched large-scale wars at any time. This is evidence!"

"A popular uprising is a way of saving oneself, and self-help must involve the root cause!"

“And the Shen Ming Fa is the root of your majesty’s reaching out to the people and even the local officials. Your majesty can see it clearly if you personally go to the people!”

"It's just right that your majesty should fulfill his promise and go to the people incognito to see whether it is your majesty's fault or God's fault!"
