Feng Heming

Chapter 183

The censor heard about the incident, not to mention that the incident was not groundless, no matter who was behind the censor, at least he did not neglect his duties.

But he died.

A dignified official of the imperial court was beaten to death in the middle of the street.

The reason was that he impeached the prince.

The crown prince can't listen to the slightest advice. Wouldn't he do whatever he wants and use his own way when he becomes the emperor in the future?So what's the point of being the censor?
This is the job of their censors, but they will die if they do what they should do. All of a sudden, all the censors in the censor's platform died of rabbits and foxes, and things hurt their kind.

But the story goes far beyond that.

Today the prince can kill a censor, but tomorrow the prince will kill a courtier he dislikes?

When did you have to worry about your life as a courtier?
As Jiang Taifu said: "The prince's move is tantamount to digging his own grave. This is prying the foundation of Beiliang! Officials don't know when disasters will come, and how many people will put their minds on the people's livelihood. ? How many people will work for the Chen family again? The country will not be a country."

This time, even the humble family who had always stood on the side of the Chen family formed a temporary alliance with the family. The censor who was beaten to death was born from a poor family. The actions of the prince Chen Xuan made many courtiers from the poor family feel cold. And if the prince is not punished this time, won't it encourage the prince's arrogance?

It's hard to say that next time the prince will really wipe out all the courtiers.

There is no need to run around, the next morning, courtiers one after another came out to participate in the performance of the prince, the excitement of the tone, the harshness of the words, all revealing a clear meaning - the prince Xuan is not the candidate for the country. Your Majesty thinks twice.

However, Chen Xiong was already filled with anger when he heard it. He looked at the courtiers who came out one after another with gloomy and angry eyes, and the murderous intent suddenly swelled in his heart.

He was emperor for four years, and this was the first time the courtiers had banded together to persecute him.

Chen Xiong's eyes slowly swept over these people. Didn't these people just want him to be the crown prince?
It really makes no sense!

Are these people going to rebel?
This world is the world of their Chen family, who will be the prince is their family business, what does it have to do with you?

She even wants to get involved in my family affairs. Is she going to change my emperor if she is not satisfied in the future?
What's wrong with killing someone?They are all the servants of their Chen family, eating their Chen family's salary, enjoying the power given by him, but they still want to turn against their master?
Such a dog slave should be killed!Kill hard!Otherwise, I don't know who the master who usually throws bones to feed them is.

Chen Xiong was furious, but Chen Xuan looked at his father who was sitting at the head in panic in the court hall, fearing that his father would not be able to withstand the pressure and really demote him.

"Gentlemen, have you listened to someone's slander and been used as a gun?"

Chen Xiong squinted his eyes, even though his heart was full of murderous intent, he was reluctantly enduring it, if there was only one family with a head, he would smash the rafters of the head of the family first, but unfortunately there are more than one family now.

He glanced vaguely at the nine people standing in the front row, and snorted coldly in his heart, these six old guys are really calm.

It was also because the famous families of the five surnames and the Jiang family hadn't moved yet, and he was afraid of this, so he suppressed the killing intent in his heart.

Chen Xiong's words made people stunned, being used as a gun?All the courtiers who participated in the performance knew that this was unwarranted, and were about to speak up to defend themselves when Chen Xiong continued:
"This is a villain's admiration and slander of the prince. Don't make a fuss. You all step down. The court meeting is over here."

"puff--"

Many courtiers had a mouthful of old blood in their throats, and their majesty opened his eyes and told nonsense. This kind of behavior of pointing a deer into a horse and insisting on helping the prince get rid of his crimes is really shameless.

The courtiers were angry in their hearts, but the prince Chen Xuan felt relieved, and his courage returned. His father made it clear that he would not be threatened by these people, and his position as prince was as stable as a mountain. Thinking of this, Chen Xuan looked sideways With a glance at the courtiers who came out to participate in his performance, there was a cold light in their eyes.

The court is not a vegetable market entrance, and the court performance is not a one-word hall like the majesty, Jiang Taifu and other Jiuqing's eyelids jumped when they heard Chen Xiong's words. Of course, other courtiers who came out to participate in the performance could not let Chen Xiong Such nonsense.

First of all, the first person to refute Chen Xiong was the censor of Yushitai. This time, other people can do nothing, but Yushitai can't. There is no need to exist anymore.

"My lord, those people who beat Qian Yushi to death yesterday kept saying that they acted on the orders of the crown prince. Not only the patrolling Wu Ding heard this, but the common people also heard it. How can it be slander?"

Chen Xiong snorted, "It's the prince who was slandered by those people, who wanted to frame him as a scapegoat, arouse my dissatisfaction with the monarch and his ministers, and want to drive a wedge between the courtiers and the prince."

Niang Xipi!
I don't know how many people scolded their mothers in their hearts. No one would have thought that Chen Xiong would be so careless, let alone end in person, and talk nonsense in a serious manner.

The more Chen Xiong was like this, the more the courtiers refused to give up. If they really followed Chen Xiong's words, wouldn't it mean that they were idiots?

Another courtier came out, "My Majesty, among those who beat Qian Yushi to death, one of them was a servant of the crown prince."

Chen Xiong's eyes darkened, he suppressed his anger, and argued: "Someone wanted to slander the prince, so he bought the prince's retainer, let him plant the blame on the prince, in order to damage the prince's reputation."

Seeing that Chen Xiong insisted on "planting the blame", many courtiers almost became angry. This kind of excuse could not wash away the prince's suspicion at all, and could not convince these courtiers. It's useless.

Another courtier came out and said, "My lord, if one person says to act under the order of the prince, it can be said that someone with a heart slanders the prince and wants to frame the prince, but there are eight villains who did the murder, and everyone said so. There is a retainer of the prince, who still has the badge of the prince's mansion on his body, who has such a great ability to make eight people testify against His Highness with one voice?
It must be known that if the crime of framing is really committed, the lightest one will be punished with a stick, and they are framing the prince of a country, do they want to lose their heads?As far as I know, after these people were arrested, they have been extremely arrogantly saying that their backer is His Royal Highness, the Holy Majesty, are they slandering, why not try them with the three divisions to prove the crown prince's innocence? "

The unyielding attitude of the courtiers made Chen Xiong angry, and these people's steadfastness towards the crown prince, Chen Xiong regarded it as pressing him every step of the way, otherwise why would he have explained everything and still couldn't catch him? put?

In the past, with the Queen Mother around, Chen Xiong was still afraid of doing things. The only person who could suppress him was gone, and his temper became more and more irritable. Seeing that the courtiers seemed to have to get an explanation before they would give up, Chen Xiong became more aggressive.

Okay, okay, I'll give you an explanation!
"Come on, where are the guards?" Chen Xiong shouted loudly.

A team of imperial guards outside the hall walked in with swords on their waists, walking like dragons and tigers, "Your servant is waiting."

While all the courtiers were looking at each other, Chen Xiong pointed to the courtiers who came out and said: "These people don't know right from wrong, don't argue with innocence, and intend to frame the crown prince. I will give each of you thirty boards!"

"Your servants respectfully obey the orders!" The guards promised loudly.

All the courtiers changed their faces.
