When Cao Shen hurriedly walked into the Xuanshi Hall, the officials were already kneeling on both sides with their heads lowered. Liu Ying sat on top angrily, her eyes full of anger.

"Your Majesty! Why do you want to arrest Piyanghou and Tujunhou?"

"Why doesn't Prime Minister Cao continue drinking?!"

Liu Ying asked angrily.

Cao Shen was stunned for a moment, then said: "If your Majesty wants to blame me for drinking, you can punish me alone, so why punish others?"

"Come here! Bring Shen Shi to me!!!"

When the two soldiers dragged Shen Shiqi to the temple, the officials couldn't bear it. At this moment, Shen Shiqi's skin and flesh were beaten to pieces, and he was dying. He was particularly miserable. Seeing his appearance, Cao Shen asked angrily:

"Your Majesty! What is the crime of trying to eat?!"

"I ordered Shen Shi to come. Shen Shi bribed his attendants and refused on the grounds of physical discomfort. But in fact, he was drinking in the palace. Dare you ask Prime Minister Cao, what is Shen Shi's crime?!"

Cao Shen did not hesitate and said coldly: "Death penalty!"

"Someone, drag me down!"

Liu Ying looked at Prime Minister Cao again, "I ordered Prime Minister Cao to come, but Prime Minister Cao refused, so I sent an envoy there, and Prime Minister Cao beat my envoy. What crime is this?!"

"capital offense."

"Someone, take him down!"

"His Majesty!!"

The ministers could no longer sit still and hurriedly stood up to plead for mercy. Zhou Bo was the first to speak: "Cao Xiang is not whipping an angel, but his own son!"

"Lieutenant, there are three hundred crossbows missing from the arsenal. Why is this?"

"The king of Tang sent his own soldiers to ask for it...so he gave it..."

"Three hundred powerful crossbows, don't you need to tell me before you can give them to foreign kings at will?! Come on, take him down too!"

The ministers are frightened. What does this mean? Do you want to arrest all the ministers? Is this still our emperor?

Looking at the horrified ministers in front of him, Liu Ying looked at Chen Ping and said: "Zhonglang ordered, these people will be handed over to you. Pursuing their crimes must not be selfish!"

Chen Ping stood up and said calmly: "Wei."

There was no anger on the faces of Cao Shen and Zhou Bo. Cao Shen always had a straight face, but Zhou Bo was thoughtful.

On this day, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty suddenly became more powerful. He arrested the internal history, Tingwei, Prime Minister, Tai Pucheng, Taiwei and many others one after another, and threw them all into the Tingwei Prison... When Liu Bang was here,

They didn't dare to do this, but Liu Ying did just that. He directly asked the Confederate Army to impose martial law in the city, and also ordered Chen Ping to strictly inspect the ministers. If anyone is found to be deceiving the emperor, he will arrest them all!

The ministers were naturally uneasy, but they did not dare to gather together for discussion, so they had no choice but to go to Jiaofang Hall and beg the Queen Mother to dissuade Her Majesty.

Your Majesty is so frustrated that he even wants to arrest the Prime Minister and the Taiwei!

When Shusun Tong cried in front of the Queen Mother, Queen Lu's face was full of surprise.

She really didn't expect that this son who was so kind and weak would have such courage to arrest Cao Shen and Zhou Bo... She didn't dare to give the order rashly, but Liu Ying actually dared...

The Queen Mother pondered and said: "I will go and persuade your Majesty. Your Majesty is not a cruel person. There must be some misunderstanding in doing this."

Shusun Tong was overjoyed. He knew that as soon as the Queen Mother opened her mouth, Her Majesty would not continue the investigation like this. You know, that Chen Ping is really not a good guy. He is really investigating! He will never fool around, and he will be arrested.

Without mercy, six ministers were arrested in one day, and the Tingwei Prison was almost transformed into the Xuanshi Palace!

Shusun Tong was not afraid of being caught. Shusun Tong had never done anything to fool the emperor or condone his subordinates to do evil. He had very high standards for himself and his disciples, and he believed that he had never done anything wrong.

, he was worried that if things continued like this, there would be big trouble in Chang'an.

Your Majesty is not the former emperor. If a big change is provoked, can he suppress it?

The Queen Mother comforted Shusun Tong and asked him to go out and tell the officials not to worry. As soon as Shusun Tong left, Liu Chang rushed to Empress Lu's side with a smile.

"How is it? Mom! I didn't lie to you. It only took me two days to make my second brother look like a real emperor!"

Queen Lu stared at him, "I asked you to lead your brother to learn a lot, not to turn your brother into a tyrant. How dare you let him arrest the prime minister and the lieutenant?! Do you know how much trouble this will cause?

?"

"If you want to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, then go catch some chickens! Is your plan to kill the monkeys and scare the chickens?"

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Mom, this time, you really blamed me wrongly. This was not my idea at all, it was all my brother's doing."

Queen Lu's eyes widened, "How dare your brother have such courage?"

"Hahaha, Mom, brother, he is a very kind person... Once he found out that the ministers ignored the suffering of the people and even persecuted the people... he was even more irritable than me, so I showed him

The true face of the ministers, my brother couldn't bear it any longer. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have almost cut his body into pieces..."

"What did Tai Pucheng do?"

"A total of 16 civilian women were captured...and three of them were forced to death."

"Then you shouldn't stop your brother."

"I'm mainly afraid that he won't be able to hold back, and Xuan Yi and the others will also be given points..."

Queen Lu pondered for a moment, then stood up and said: "Even so, we should not arrest Cao to participate in Zhou Bo, especially Zhou Bo. He is deeply rooted in the Northern Army. If you want to deal with him, you must be prepared first. You can't be reckless."

To do something, I have to find Ying."

"Mom!!"

Liu Chang jumped in front of Empress Lu, stretched out his hand to block her, "This time, brother made up his own mind and decided to do it according to his own wishes. He finally got tough. Don't talk about him, let him

You can handle it yourself! Mom, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to completely change my brother. You must not interfere with his decision!"

Queen Lu hesitated a little, "If you want to deal with others, I won't stop it, but... there are too many people involved."

Liu Chang said seriously: "Mom, don't worry... I have already made preparations. I have sent Zhang Buyi and Li Zuoche to the Tang Kingdom with their own soldiers."

"Soon, Li Zuoche will lead the Tang army to practice around Hedong. Once there is any movement in Chang'an... the Tang army will rush in... The southern army only obeys the orders of his brother. The northern army can defeat the southern army.

The army is the same as the army of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Ji Bu is with my uncle at the moment. I have already given instructions. If there is a change in the city, my uncle will be stationed at the palace while Chen Ping fights against the Northern Army and waits for the Tang army to come."

"you!!"

Queen Lu was stunned. She didn't like this feeling very much. She felt that this kind of thing was beyond her control. She said angrily: "The foreign king's army is training around Chang'an. Do you want to rebel?!"

"I'm rebelling?! I disobey the emperor's orders and openly beat the emperor's messengers. That's called rebellion! As long as I, Liu Chang, are still alive, no one dares to treat my brother like this! He has 40,000 Northern troops. This time in Datang

An army of 50,000 has been mobilized! Those ministers who do not obey the emperor’s edict are of no use keeping them! Kill them all!!”

Liu Chang roared angrily.

Queen Lu quickly calmed down, "Does your brother know?"

"Of course I know! I am here to punish a thief!"

"I think you are the biggest thief!"

Empress Lu cursed, and then shouted: "You two bastards! Shuzi! How can anyone do such a thing! Shuzi!"

Empress Lu glared at Liu Chang and cursed: "If your army dares to take a step closer to Chang'an, I will kill you, the traitor, first! Did you hear that?!"

Liu Chang grinned and said, "As long as my mother is here, we can't fight."

"Okay... So you are waiting for me here... Your wings are strong, Liu Chang, you and Liu Ying have even taken advantage of me, right?"

"This is all brother's plan!"

"Fart! You...just wait until I finish my work!"

Empress Lu left the Jiaofang Palace angrily, and Liu Chang also left the Jiaofang Palace. Empress Lu went to summon the ministers, while Liu Chang went to Ganquan Palace to find Liu Ying.

Seeing Liu Chang coming, Liu Ying grabbed his arm and pulled him in front of her, "What did mom say?"

"Hey, who is my mother? How could I not understand? Of course she went to find the ministers..."

Liu Chang complained again: "Brother, I will be beaten severely this time because of you, and my mother is very angry..."

"Alas..." Liu Ying sighed, and then said angrily: "I would rather be a cruel and unfilial tyrant than a stupid emperor who allows the people to suffer and the officials to be fooled!"

Liu Chang's eyes lit up, "Well said!"

"Brother, it's just my sister-in-law's place..."

"No problem, this time, I must punish these ministers in the country! My father was right, he just has to flog them from time to time, otherwise, these people will not take you seriously at all! Don't take this world seriously.

Take it seriously!”

"Okay, since brother has such courage, then I will definitely help you with all my strength! It's not just me!"

"The eldest brother of Qi, the fourth brother of South Korea, the fifth brother of Liang, the sixth brother of Wu, and the father of Chu, we are all on the side of our elder brothers. With us here, I want to see which one

How dare the minister not take my brother seriously!"

"Okay! We brothers must work together to govern the big man!"

This time, Liu Ying showed her own confidence, but suddenly felt something was wrong, so she added: "And your third brother from Zhao Guo!"

"No, King Zhao is cowardly by nature, double-dealing and treacherous. The reason why I only summoned 50,000 Tang troops this time is because I am worried that King Zhao will collude with treacherous ministers and stab our Tang country in the back."

Liu Ying smiled bitterly and shook her head, "You...but, sir, you have to agree that we can't really fight..."
To be continued...
