I am not Yuan Shu

Chapter 197 Yuan Qing, can I kill him? (Additional chapter for leader BAD 灬 JOKER)

Such a scene happened in the eyes of everyone, and it did have an unclear meaning.

And many people do feel as if something in their bodies has suddenly broken.

Then, the political background of the Yuan family suddenly erupted like a long-sleeping dragon suddenly awakening.

An official who was a former official of the Yuan family stood up, with a determined light flashing in his eyes. His voice echoed in the empty hall, expressing his firm support for Yuan Feng.

"I think what Yuan Taifu and Yuan Gongzi said is very true! The current emperor is in league with the eunuchs, allowing them to destroy the world and persecute the good. This is already known to the whole world, and there are many people in the world who feel resentful about this. Gaozu's bloodline is all over the world, and there are countless people who can be emperors, but there is only one Han Dynasty. How can we allow this tyrant to be corrupted?"

With someone taking the lead, the former officials of the Yuan family seemed to have found their backbone and stood up one after another to express their opinions.

"The emperor is unjust, he should be deposed and another wise ruler should be appointed to rule the world!"

An official said passionately: "We cannot allow a tyrant to act recklessly and destroy the foundation of Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Shizu. This is the duty of an official!"

"The King of Bohai is the late emperor's younger brother, and is the most suitable person to be his king!"

Another official echoed, "I think what Yuan Taifu said is very true! The King of Bohai is both benevolent and virtuous, and he will surely lead the Han Dynasty to prosperity!"

"The world has been in turmoil for years. Today is the day to put order and redress the injustice!"

An elderly former official of the Yuan family waved his arms excitedly, as if the hope for the future was right before his eyes.

Yuan Shu stood in the hall, his eyes swept over the twenty or so former officials of the Yuan family, and an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.

This is the political power of the Yuan family in the court, and it is the result of the efforts of several generations of the Yuan family.

The so-called "a call for everyone to respond" may never be an empty talk for the Yuan family. They can really do it.

And these are only a minority, because all the officials in the palace are high-ranking officials with the rank of 2,000 stones.

Among the officials and clerks with salaries of 1,000 or 100 shi, the number of Yuan's disciples and former officials was even greater. The entire political force of the Yuan family was almost a faction of its own in the court, and its power was so huge that it was astonishing.

Yuan Shu secretly sighed in his heart that the Yuan family was too powerful. With just a little effort, many people felt that they were extremely strong and terrifying. They could have acted more high-profile, but they chose to be relatively low-key. This was both wisdom and strength.

Yuan Shu searched the crowd and saw Weiwei Yuan Pang, who was lowering his head and keeping silent.

The leader of the Chenjun Yuan family was now looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

It seems that the Yuan family of Chen County is still maintaining its previous political situation and has no intention of getting involved in this matter.

But this is not important, because more and more people responded to Yuan Feng, and even exceeded half.

Li Xian had a serious expression and pursed his lips, but he was secretly calculating the changes in the situation in his heart.

Zong Ju looked as if he was in a trance, and it was unclear whether he had really noticed the changes in the court.

There was also Yang Ci. When Yuan Shu looked over, his eyes met Yang Ci's.

That old guy was actually staring at me?
Yuan Shu suddenly felt disgusted.

This old guy shamelessly wanted me to be his son-in-law, and he still didn't give up even after I rejected him.

But now he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to all this, because the situation before him has become increasingly clear.

As more and more people responded to Yuan Feng and their voices became louder and louder, the smile on Yuan Feng's lips became more and more uncontrollable.

He knew that the overall situation had been determined and there were no other factors that could affect the direction of the situation today.

So Yuan Feng and Yuan Shu walked down the steps together and stood in the center of the hall.

Then, the father and son shouted at the same time.

"Please welcome King Bohai into the palace!"

The sound echoed in the hall, making people tremble.

Before the high-ranking officials and dignitaries could react, the soldiers in the hall had already started shouting loudly.

"Please welcome King Bohai into the palace!"

Their voices were unified and powerful.

Then, the high-ranking officials heard a very loud shout coming from outside.

"Please welcome King Bohai into the palace!"

The sound was even more powerful, surging like a tide, unstoppable.

The soldier who was originally guarding the palace door opened it, and everyone turned their eyes to the rear.

I saw the bright sunshine outside couldn't wait to shine into the temple, as if even the sky was cheering for the arrival of this moment.

Soon, the neatly dressed King Liu Li of Bohai appeared in front of everyone, surrounded by soldiers.

He was thin and gaunt, but in very good spirits, with confidence and smile on his face. He walked towards them step by step, and his every move was full of kingly demeanor.

He walked to the steps of the hall, turned his head to look at Yuan Shu and Yuan Feng standing on the side, thought for a moment, and said softly: "Yuan Qing, help me up." As he said that, he extended his hand to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu agreed and helped Liu Kui up the stairs.

They walked step by step.

Although Liu Kui's steps were slow, they were extremely firm. Yuan Shu could see that Liu Kui really cared about this moment very much.

Perhaps in his mind, he had imagined countless times what it would be like if he could walk up these stairs one day.

And now, he has finally realized his dream.

Soon, Liu Kui, accompanied by Yuan Shu, walked up the cold stone steps of Deyang Palace and came in front of the shivering Liu Hong.

Outside the hall, the cold wind was blowing, causing the candlelight inside the hall to flicker, as if it was also trembling with fear of the impending disaster.

At this moment, Liu Hong had long lost the dignity and solemnity he usually pretended to have. His face was as pale as paper and his body was shaking constantly, like a lamb to be slaughtered.

His eyes were filled with fear and despair, as if he had foreseen the tragic fate he was about to face.

Liu Qi's face was full of disgust towards this kid, and his eyes were filled with undisguised murderous intent.

He had been harboring resentment for many years, and now he finally had the chance to vent it. Liu Hong's existence was like a thorn in his heart that could not be removed, constantly reminding him that the throne that should have belonged to him had been stolen by this brat for several years.

He was lost and frightened for a long time because of this.

And in the end, this kid actually wanted to kill him!

Now the offensive and defensive positions have changed. He is the knife and Liu Hong is the fish. How can he still control the desire in his heart?

So he moved a little closer to Yuan Shu, lowered his throat, and his voice was filled with a hint of cold murderous intent: "Yuan Qing, can I kill him? I get angry when I see him, and I can't help but want to kill him, is that okay?"

Yuan Shu was stunned, obviously not expecting Liu Kui to make such a request so directly.

Yuan Shu understood the resentment in Liu Kui's heart.

After all, Liu Hong once wanted to kill Liu Kui, so it is understandable that Liu Kui wanted to retaliate, and Liu Hong's existence was indeed a huge threat.

But as the initiator and leader of the coup, he must consider the overall situation.

After a moment's hesitation, Yuan Shu came up with an idea and whispered, "Your Majesty, you are his uncle after all. It would not sound good if you want to kill him. If you are really angry, you can punish him, even if you demote him to a commoner. But killing him, at least for now, is not appropriate."

After hearing what Yuan Shu said, Liu Kui frowned, obviously still feeling unwilling.

But in the end, he still snorted coldly.

"Humph! He got it cheap!"

Although he still had the murderous intent in his heart, he also understood that Yuan Shu's words made sense. Now was indeed not the best time to kill Liu Hong. For the sake of the overall situation and the throne, he could be patient.

Afterwards, Yuan Shu waved his hands, and soldiers from both sides came forward and held Liu Hong. Liu Hong was unable to resist and could only let the soldiers hold him tightly. Yuan Shu personally stripped off the emperor's clothes and crown on Liu Hong one by one, leaving him only with a single layer of clothes.

Liu Hong looked extremely embarrassed at this moment, having long lost the majesty of the emperor he once was. Yuan Shu respectfully handed the emperor's crown to Liu Kui. Liu Kui took the crown, with a glimmer of joy that was hard to conceal in his eyes.

Soon, Liu Kui changed into the emperor's attire, suppressed his inner excitement, and slowly turned around to face his ministers.

At this moment, he was wearing the emperor's crown, but he still had one last step to go before becoming a real emperor - the abdication ceremony.

His eyes swept across the ministers in the hall, his heart filled with anticipation for the future and confidence in his control over everything.

Yuan Shu carried Liu Hong and quickly walked down the stairs, leaving Liu Kui alone on the stage.

Liu Kui picked up the imperial seal and the emperor's imperial seal on the throne, symbolizing that the supreme imperial power was now in his hands.

Yuan Feng turned around and looked at Taichang Qing Tang Zhen who was standing among the ministers.

Tang Zhen was looking down at the moment, feeling uneasy. Yuan Feng smiled and said, "Tang Taichang, you will preside over the abdication ceremony. Are you willing?"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on Tang Zhen.

Tang Zhen suddenly felt helpless and sighed inwardly.

He could have just been a coward and ignored this matter, just kept his head down and followed the crowd.

But he was the head of the Nine Ministers, Taichang, in charge of etiquette education. He was the top authority in etiquette in the entire Eastern Han Empire. No matter in daily life or political life, the final right of interpretation of all issues lay with him.

How could he escape from it?
But despite feeling helpless, Tang Zhen did feel a little bit fortunate in her heart.

Because he had helped Yuan Shu before and had a good relationship with Yuan Shu, if he followed Yuan Feng's wishes at this time, he would basically be a member of Yuan's party.

In this way, when the Yuan family prospers in the future, he and his family will also benefit. Isn’t that great?
He had no intention of being a loyal minister to a deposed emperor who had lost all his support.

A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good time chooses a master to work for. There is nothing wrong with him doing this.
