Chapter 158 Everyone Wants to Join Your Majesty's Circle(1/2)

Pinyang, Qinhuang Palace, and Convention Hall.

Ying Zheng sat upright above, his eyes scanning the ministers, thinking about something.

At this time, the eunuch in charge of the court talks took a small step forward and shouted in a sharp voice: "If you have something to do, report it early, and if you have nothing to do, you will leave the court."

As soon as he finished speaking, an old man with a thin figure and loose censor robe bowed and stepped out: "Report to Your Majesty, the old minister begged Your Majesty to dismiss Feng Quji as the right prime minister!"

"What?!"

Do you use your big move at the beginning?

When did the Censorate become so tough?!

Hearing this, the ministers were shocked and looked at Feng Quji in unison.

Feng Quji was also stunned, and then looked at the Censorate official in confusion, thinking that this old guy was going crazy?

Ying Zheng frowned slightly and said lightly: "Censor Zhao, what does this mean?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, the old minister got the news that the Wei River Basin is famine, and there are many refugees who cause rebellion."

"What does this have to do with Feng Youping?"

Censor Zhao replied: "Feng Youping is responsible for disaster relief and control, but because of his improper behavior, he not only did not share his worries for His Majesty, but instead caused the people of Qin to live in poverty. Especially in Chu, disaster victims and riots have occurred frequently, and now several town pavilions have been broken!"

"If this continues, it will cause chaos in the country, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, the ministers were upset and looked at Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "What's wrong? Let's listen."

"When you go back to your Majesty, the old minister has taken several evidences of impeachment of Feng Youqiao!"

Zhao Jingshi bowed and said, "The refugees are everywhere, and they do not want to strengthen supervision, but let His Majesty stop work and release the people, which makes it more difficult for a place where food is already short of money. This is a crime;

Disasters occur frequently, and they do not want to help the people, but openly sell official positions and make money. This is the second crime;

Foreign envoys discussed peace talks, but did not think about stabilizing diplomatic relations, but ignored them and kept them alone. This was a crime."

As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers turned their attention to Feng Quji again.

Although everyone understands that Feng Quji has the shadow of Emperor Qin Shi's actions, he also feels that these practices are not very appropriate.

After all, disasters occur frequently, and most of the victims are the elderly, weak, women and children. Even if they want to cause trouble, it will be difficult to capture the country pavilion.

However, Feng Quji's proposal to suspend work and return the people was not only unable to resolve the disaster, but instead caused a bigger problem.

In fact, it is better to say that the disaster caused riots in the refugees to be rioted. If the world has suffered for a long time, it would not cause the situation today if the taxes were lighter and taxes were reduced and the people would live a little better.

Some of the people present saw the situation clearly and were lucky enough to gloat, but none of them agreed with Censor Zhao.

Because they knew that whether Feng Quji was convicted was entirely up to Ying Zheng.

After hesitating for a moment, Ying Zheng looked up at Feng Quji and said, "Feng Aiqing, can I tell you three crimes?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, the old minister does have a few words to say."

Even the clay man is very angry, not to mention Feng Quji, who has always been loyal to Geng.

"Oh? Then you just say it."

Ying Zheng is going to support Feng Quji.

After all, what Feng Quji did was supported by him.

But I heard Feng Quji say to Zhao Jingshi: "Although the disaster is my responsibility, it is probably unreasonable to blame me for the impact of the disaster!

What's more, disaster relief is not a one-day effort. What can the chaos in a few township pavilions mean?”

As soon as the words were finished, the ministers nodded, thinking that Feng Quji was justified.

Since the Qin Dynasty unified the six kingdoms, riots have often happened. Although several town pavilions were captured, the army was approaching and everything would eventually be quelled.

I can't make any waves.

However, Censor Zhao obviously did not agree with Feng Quji's statement and immediately said coldly: "Feng Youxiong is such a bad word. As Censor, I should impeach according to the rules, no matter what I can explain!"

Although he was facing the imperial prime minister, he didn't care at all.

"Since it is impeachment according to the rules, we have to pay attention to the real evidence!"

Feng Quji smiled coldly.

Censor Zhao raised his eyebrows and asked: "What? Do the above three crimes have nothing to do with Feng Youxiong?"

"Although there are some connections, we cannot generalize it by any means!"

Feng Quji said expressionlessly: "The rebellion of refugees is the root cause of food shortage in their families;

However, this chaos will not last long, because Your Majesty has a solution to it!”

Hearing this, the ministers were slightly stunned and subconsciously looked up at Ying Zheng.

But when Ying Zheng waved his hand and smiled, "Originally, this matter should have been discussed with you, but the situation was urgent, so I left it to Feng Youqiao to deal with it."

"Um?"

What's the situation? This is?

Your Majesty actually explained for Feng Youqiao?

Just as the ministers showed envious eyes, Li Si, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stepped forward and bowed: "Since Your Majesty has a solution, I wonder if I can tell me and others?"

Ying Zheng glanced at him without answering. He turned to Censor Zhao and said in a deep voice: "Judge Zhao just now counted three evidences of Feng Youqiao's crimes. Now I will answer them one by one!"

"I'm afraid!"

Censor Zhao was startled and quickly saluted.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said to himself: "One of the crime is that stopping work and releasing the people is my intention. Even if there is any mistake, it is my fault;

Besides, I don’t think this move is wrong. As Feng Youqiao said, disaster relief is not a one-day achievement!”

"The second crime is that selling official positions is what I mean. Now the national treasury is empty and cannot provide relief to the victims. Therefore, I made this bad decision, and the money I earned is not for personal use."

"The third crime is that the corpse is in vain. This is suspected of false accusation. Feng Youqiao is devoted to Qin and has never been lazy at all. As for the matter of the Great Yuezhi, I have my own arrangements and there is no need to say much."

As soon as he finished speaking, Censor Zhao suddenly felt a chill on his back and hurriedly bowed; "The old minister does not understand Your Majesty's deep meaning and impeaches him by chance. This is a crime. Please punish him!"

"The Censorate was ordered to supervise all officials. Although this impeachment is a responsibility for misinspection, I forgive you for not guilty!"

"But!" As he said that, he changed his mind and continued: "The death penalty is forbidden, but the living penalty cannot be escaped. I will punish you for one year's salary and reflect at home!"

"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"

Censor Zhao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly bowed to salute.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and signaled him to retreat, then glanced at the ministers and sighed, "Since I unified the six kingdoms, I have built countless projects, which has caused excessive consumption of people's power;

Whenever there is a riot in the state, I will also reflect on whether I have done something wrong?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Everyone is wondering whether their ears have been wrong.

How could the First Emperor actually reflect on his own mistakes?

How is this possible?!

When did the First Emperor, who has always been domineering and talking nonsense, begin to show signs of a benevolent monarch?

Just when everyone was shocked, Ying Zheng said again: "You said, will the Qin Dynasty be in chaos after my death?"

I'll wipe it!

If the First Emperor reflected on his mistakes, the ministers were shocked.

The First Emperor said that the Qin Dynasty would be in chaos, and the ministers were stormy in their hearts. Without time to hesitate, he hurriedly bowed out and said, "Your Majesty is blessed with all the great fortunes, and the Qin Dynasty will be prosperous forever!"

"hehe."

Ying Zheng smiled unanimously, and then said in a hoarse voice: "In recent years, I have been pursuing immortality and gradually lost my ambitions in the past;

In fact, from the Great Jiuzhou that was born in the world, I should have realized that there is a broader world outside of Qin."

"Although I am nearly fifty years old now, I seem to have returned to the eve of the destruction of the Six Kingdoms."

At this point, his eyes began to become extremely sharp, and then he glanced at everyone and said deeply: "I have decided to give up the way of immortality and lead me to the top of the world!"

Beep—

Hearing this, the entire hall can hear the needles falling from the ground.

How many years have passed!

This has been so many years!

Your Majesty finally stopped pursuing immortality!

God bless me Daqin, God bless me First Emperor!

For a moment, the ministers were so excited that they wanted to rush out of the hall and run around to tell each other.

Some people even cry in tears and cry out loud.
