Chapter 526: Four Challenges

Chapter 526
"Lord Lu, a catastrophe has happened right now. If you and I sit still and wait for death, I'm afraid we will be burned together!" Fang Jin, the extremely anxious Duke of the Hua Kingdom saw Lu Kai, immediately clasped his hands together, and said hysterically.

Seeing that Fang Jin's eyes were red, Lu Kai hurriedly said, "Master, what happened? If you need me, I will definitely do my best!"

Fang Jin held Lu Kai's hand tightly and said: "Master Lu, the woman in the harem not only poisoned the harem and killed the king's flesh and blood, but even attempted to interfere with the government and occupy the world of my clan. If we wait If you stand by and watch, I am afraid that the fate of someone from our side and Concubine Huangui today will be my brother's tomorrow!"

"My lord, could it be that Concubine Huan was deposed by the king?" Lu Kai asked in surprise.

"Exactly!" Fang Jin exclaimed.

"Don't worry, my lord, Lu will definitely mobilize all the officials to protect the noble concubine in front of the king!" Lu Kai readily agreed.

The next day, in the Shuilong Shuren Hall, the ministers were in the early court, and the imperial fragrance was faint. Ming Gong sat on the throne and looked down at the crowd with a serious expression, and then motioned to the imperial eunuch Xiao Ruzi to read out the imperial edict.

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty, the ministers have something to say." At this moment, Fang Jin, Duke of Hua, personally held up the imperial wat and knelt forward.

"Duke Hua, what do you mean? How dare you block the edict issued by the widow?" Ming Gong glared at Fang Jin, who had an arrogant attitude, and asked with displeasure.

"Your Majesty, I have a chance to participate in the cabinet minister Cheng Rong. Relying on the favor of the King, he secretly encouraged the Queen of the Palace, persecuted the concubines, interfered in the government affairs, and manipulated power to harm the country. Here is a list of more than ten major crimes committed by Cheng Rong. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty!" Fang Jin handed over the scriptures in public.

"Duke Hua, what do you mean by this? How did I offend you and ask you to attack and slander like this?" Cheng Rong raised his chao wat and looked at Fang Jin in surprise.

"Master Lu, what are you waiting for, come out and testify together with the veteran!" Fang Jin felt guilty, and quickly turned to look at Lu Kai.

"The ministers also want to participate in the performance!" In a short time, more than thirty officials came forward and knelt down and said.

"It's really unreasonable. You didn't listen to the edict of the widow at all, and you all pointed your finger at Cheng Rong inexplicably. Who is instigating it?" Ming Gong laughed loudly.

"Why, the king's edict didn't depose Concubine Huan from the position of Concubine Huan?" Fang Jin, Duke Hua, fell into the five-flavored bottle immediately, his head muddled.

"Xiao Ruzi, announce the decree immediately!" Ming Gong ordered while looking at Xiao Ruzi.

"Observe the decree!" Xiao Ruzi hurriedly unfolded the imperial edict, and read it aloud: "The Son of Heaven has issued an edict, the nobleman Xin relies on Roujia, with a pure nature, and will be conferred the title of Concubine Xin from now on, thank you!"

"What? His Majesty appointed another concubine?" Xiao Ruzi had just finished reading, and there were discussions immediately in the hall.

"My appointment as a concubine is originally a matter of the harem. Why did I announce it in public at the Shuilong Shuren Hall? The reason is that the widow has decided to amnesty the world from now on. You can discuss how the amnesty should be implemented." Ming Gong said immediately.

"Here, Your Majesty, if you confer a mere concubine, you will be amnesty to the whole world. This specification does not conform to Zhou etiquette." The senior doctor Zhaogong remonstrated in embarrassment.

"The rituals of the Zhou Dynasty were also set by the ancestors. If we want the country to last forever, we must keep pace with the times. The sky is healthy, and the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement. The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade. The widow decided that after this amnesty for the world, Change the well field system, collect taxes from all over the world according to household registration, and fully implement the prefecture and county system in all vassal states and states throughout the country, unify our Dazhou rites and music documents, and fully implement the New Deal!" Ming Gong disagreed, and resolutely announced in public.
