Chapter 211 Panic, panic

In fact, some radical students have begun to organize street protests or are thinking of beating the drum to ask the emperor to arrest Xie Changfeng, seize his power, imprison him, and conduct a three-division trial on Prince Ning's case.

"General, it's not good, it's not good! Something big has happened!"

One of Xie Changfeng's subordinates ran into Xie's house in a panic and shouted loudly when he saw him.

"What's wrong? What's the big deal? How unbecoming is it to be so panicked!" Xie Changfeng frowned and reprimanded.

"General, look at this "War God", it says that you colluded with Beiyan to frame Prince Ning..."

The subordinate handed "The God of War" to Xie Changfeng and asked him to read it.

Xie Changfeng's expression changed, and he hurriedly flipped through a few pages, only to see that not only were the things written in them true, but even the fourth- and fifth-grade officials who worked for him also wrote clearly.

The key is, it’s written correctly!

Xie Changfeng's first reaction was that there was a traitor among them!

"Immediately send someone to copy the book, and arrest anyone who is selling it, buying it, or discussing it."

Xie Changfeng realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately arrested people.

"General, you'd better go to the palace to meet the emperor first. We know that it is the emperor's intention to get rid of Prince Ning, but the emperor was removed from this book!

Given the prestige of Prince Ning, this book is bound to arouse public outrage, but the key is the ministers in the court who support Prince Ning.

They will definitely take this opportunity to put pressure on the emperor and ask him to vindicate Prince Ning. What if the emperor finally forces the general to take the blame?"

"Impossible!" Xie Changfeng shouted with an ugly face, "I am the emperor's uncle. I have done so many things for the emperor over the years, and my hard work has made great achievements..."

Xie Changfeng couldn't continue talking until he was halfway through the sentence. The words about his uncle and his hard work and achievements were all fake.

If the emperor said to leave it, he would leave it.

Xie Changfeng panicked.

His boss had been exposed and his subordinates had been stripped naked. How could he not panic!

Xie Changfeng stared at the four words Mr. Wutong, with strong murderous intent in his eyes.

Who is this Mr. Wutong?

How could he know so many secrets about himself and the people around him?

Xie Changfeng suddenly felt that he could not trust anyone.

If you can't believe it, then find all his subordinates and coerce them first and then induce them. You will never let them admit their crimes.

This time, everyone is like a grasshopper on a rope, carrying it to the end no matter what.

If you keep carrying it without acknowledging it, maybe you can still have a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, Xie Changfeng immediately sent his trusted soldiers to contact those officials and gather them for a meeting.

However, Xie Changfeng was disappointed.

Close soldiers came back one after another to report that the officials had disappeared and had been arrested.

When Xie Changfeng heard this, he staggered again.

He should have thought of it earlier!

Since Prince Ning dared to make it public in such a big way, he would naturally have made thorough back-up preparations and would not give them a chance to unite and resist.

All the wings of his confidants were broken, and now he has become a bare general.

The only person who can keep him alive is the emperor.

-

There is another person who is even more panicked than Xie Changfeng, and that is Chang Qing, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

He also read "The God of War", and he saw that some of the revelations in it were the secret letters he had lost before!

Lou Changqing is so scared.

He never expected that Prince Ning would choose to spread those secret messages in such a public way instead of handing them over to the emperor.

Of course Lou Changqing also knows that in terms of influence, this method is naturally more lethal.

Not only him, but none of the officials who had close dealings with him were exposed.

It was as if they were suddenly stripped naked in front of everyone, feeling ashamed, angry, and panicked.

There is nothing to hide.

Lou Changqing felt that his death was coming.

Not only himself, but his family was also in ruins. The better consequences would be exile, or the family might be confiscated and exterminated.

Lou Changqing didn't even want to struggle anymore. He lay down and waited to die, because he knew that struggling would be useless.

-

Royal Palace.

Although the emperor is fatuous and does not care about government affairs, he still has a group of loyal dogs under him.

When a forbidden book like "The God of War" came out, which cursed the emperor as the king of subjugation, the emperor knew about it immediately.

It’s faster than Xie Changfeng’s news.

The emperor finished reading the booklet with a gloomy face. He was filled with anger that was about to burst out. However, it was rare that the emperor endured it.

He didn't smash anything and slap the table, nor did he roar, let alone shout who he wanted to chop off someone's head.

"You said, if I kill King Ning, no one in this huge Qin State can stop the Northern Yan people? And I will become the king of the country as written in this book?!"

The emperor suddenly asked, referring to Eunuch Jia, the chief eunuch beside him.

When Eunuch Jia heard this fatal question, he knelt down with a thud.

"Your Majesty, calm down! We, the Great Qin Dynasty, have many good generals, and they are even more loyal to the Emperor. What is written in this book is simply treacherous and alarmist, and I don't believe it at all!"

Eunuch Jia was covered in cold sweat and shouted loudly.

"Although I am afraid of King Ning, I have to admit that King Ning's talent in leading troops is unparalleled! But you are right, I have so many good generals and soldiers, even if the Northern Yan people invade, what will happen?

How can you be afraid of Beiyan people?"

The emperor's voice continued to rise, but there was no momentum at all. Instead, it seemed more and more bluffing, and there was fear in his voice.

Eunuch Jia's face turned pale and he was trembling.

"Come here! Here is the commander of the Imperial Army! Let him come in and see me!" the emperor roared angrily.

After a while, the commander of the imperial army arrived.

The emperor immediately ordered him to lead the imperial army to copy books and arrest people. Anyone who read "The God of War" or commented on it would be arrested and given twenty lashes first!

Even if the content in "The God of War" is true and correct, his authority as the emperor cannot be challenged!

"Catch Mr. Wutong back to me, I want to live!" the emperor emphasized with a sullen face.

"Yes!" The commander of the Forbidden Army left.

In addition, the emperor also ordered the patrol battalion, the military and horse department, Jing Zhaoyi's policemen, and the troops of the Ministry of Punishment to all be involved in banning books and searching for Mr. Wutong.

There is no need to arrest Prince Ning.

Because he couldn't catch it, the emperor gave up. He might as well use his troops on the edge.

"Thank you Changfeng for coming to the palace to see me," the emperor said again.

Xie Changfeng was his uncle, and he had been working conscientiously over the years, so the emperor wanted to give him a reassurance first.

Even if Prince Ning had to be vindicated in the end, he would not push Xie Changfeng to take the blame. The culprit was someone else.

The emperor had made up his mind, and just gave Xie Changfeng a lecture, and then imprisoned him to show off, so that he could give an explanation to Prince Ning, the civil and military officials, and the people of the world.

After the matter is over, find a reason to pardon him and re-appoint him to a high official position.
