Chapter 2051: There is no reason to die for ones country
Liu Yu looked at Sima Dewen with bright eyes and said word by word: "The world is composed of those who are virtuous and capable. Those who protect the country and the people live in this world. It is not the world of one family and one surname!"
Sima Dewen was stunned at first, then burst out laughing: "Okay, Liu Yu, Liu Jinu, I never thought that you claim to be a hero, but you are just a yes-man who bows his head in front of power! Back then, you were in the theater fighting arena.
At that time, you committed an unforgivable crime. It was the late emperor who spared you and gave you a chance to live. He also allowed you to stay in the Palace of Wei and entrusted you with your life! Your Liu family has been an official in our Jin Dynasty for generations, and has been a blessing to the country for many generations. Today.
Some people want to seize the Sima family and destroy the Jin Dynasty, but you are here to say such things, are you worthy of the kindness of the late emperor?!"
Liu Yu said loudly: "It is the kindness of the late Emperor that I fought for the country and fought bloody battles. I publicly uncovered the conspiracy of the mafia Qinglong, that is, Xi Chao, and brought this group that has been conspiring to control the government since the establishment of the Jin Dynasty to the public."
In the world, the country belongs to the people of the world, not to one family. I have repaid the late emperor's kindness to me with my service to the country, and there is nothing wrong with me. Now that I am in office, I have entrusted the country to no one.
It has become like this today. As a general, I have gone through life and death just to put an end to the troubles you caused. You said that Emperor Sima was kind to me. Then I would like to ask the Emperor of Sima and the Sima clan how they treated Wu Dina’s death.
Do the hundreds of thousands of people who are devastated by the war have any mercy or fault?!"
Sima Dewen gritted his teeth: "Sima Yuanxian's sins cannot be placed on my imperial brother."
Liu Yu said coldly: "But now that the country has become like this, someone has to be responsible. It doesn't mean that it can be ended by killing Sima Yuanxian. King Langya, look at the palace today, with all the civil and military officials, but
Is there someone like you who wants to protect His Majesty's throne? How can an emperor who can't even speak or even go to court calm the people of the world at this time? Xianggong Huan has made great contributions to the country.
The various visions also show that the destiny has been transferred. If you do not comply with the destiny and abdicate in favor of others, then disaster will come from heaven and it will spread to the whole clan!"
Sima Dewen's face changed drastically: "You, are you threatening us? Do you mean to say that if the emperor brother, if our Sima clan does not obey, you will follow Chengji's example and kill the king?!"
Liu Yu's eyes widened and he said loudly: "Since King Langya mentioned that the founding emperor ordered Cheng Ji to kill Gaogui Township Duke Cao Mao, then I have made it clear that God's way is good, but retribution is not good. Cao Mao knew that he couldn't do it and did it
After all, he still wanted to attack the late emperor and regain his power even though he had no power, and ended up being killed by Cheng Ji. Does King Langya think today that the members of the Sima clan also want to do this?"
Sima Dewen suddenly started shaking like a deflated rubber ball. Just now, he was so angry that he blurted out the story of when Sima Zhao killed the noble countryman Cao Mao and directly used this bloody method to regicide and seize power.
The murderous look in Liu Yu's eyes just now made him shudder. He was a swordsman, and I was a fish and meat. No one in the civil and military court interceded for him. If he really continued to fight like this, I am afraid that even the treatment after Cao's resignation would not be the same.
It cannot be preserved.
Sima Dewen looked at Wang Shen'ai for help and said: "Queen, the world of Jin Dynasty is not only our Sima family. From the founding of the country, the king and the horse share the world. If the Sima family is gone, then you
Can high-ranking families like the Wang family and Xie family still maintain their splendor and wealth?"
Wang Shen'ai didn't look at Sima Dewen. She kept staring at Liu Yu for a long time before sighing faintly: "I know Liu Yu and Liu Jinu will be an upright hero. It turns out that you just want to be a hero."
Chengji?"
Liu Yu said coldly: "I would like to be Deng Ai, but if someone is holding me back, then I will have to do what I think is right. Queen Wang, I heard you once said, if anyone wants to take
Unless I snatch the jade seal from your body, right?"
Wang Shen'ai nodded: "Yes, I am the daughter of the Wang family and the daughter-in-law of the Sima family. If the situation is like this and I, a female, cannot stop it, then I will have to die for my country."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Then I dare to ask Queen Wang, which country did you die in?"
Wang Shenai's beautiful eyebrows frowned: "Of course it was the Jin Dynasty that died. If Prime Minister Huan wanted to abdicate, he should have established the Chu State. If Jin died and Chu was established, how could I survive as the daughter-in-law of the Sima family?
Where is Yu Shi?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I dare to ask Queen Wang, if even the descendants of the Sima family did not die for the country, why would you, a woman who married into the Sima family, need to die for the country? The prime minister succeeded Jin and established Chu, and your husband, ours
Your Majesty, the Emperor, complied with the destiny of Heaven. The Jin Dynasty fell, but a new emperor was replaced. Not a single person in the world would die because of this, so why should you sacrifice your life for your country?"
Wang Shen'ai gritted his teeth: "This jade seal is in my hands for safekeeping. If I can't keep it, I should die to thank the world. My husband, His Majesty the Emperor, does not have to die, because he cannot be like a human being in the first place.
I act like ordinary people, but I have no reason to excuse myself. If the country is lost in my own hands, I should repay it with death! I am a child of a noble family, and this is the upbringing I received!"
Liu Yu said seriously: "In that case, let's go back to the founding of the Jin Dynasty, when the king and the horse shared the world. Queen Wang, according to the law, you are the queen and do not control the jade seal. Now that the jade seal is temporarily in your hands, it is also
It should be handed over to the person who should be in charge according to the legal procedures of the country. The jade seal passed down to the country should be kept by the most noble Dazai who is responsible for the national sacrifice, Prime Minister Huan, and Wang Pushe. This should be the case according to the national law."
Huan Xuan smiled slightly: "According to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, this jade seal should be in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor himself. The imperial edicts of the world must be added with a seal ribbon before they can be executed. It is only because His Majesty has been unwell in recent years that it was kept by the Queen.
Wang Pushe, in terms of legal principles, should this be the case?"
Wang Mi smiled and said: "There is no law that stipulates that the emperor cannot exercise the power of the emperor, and this jade seal should be kept by the queen. When His Majesty suffered a serious illness, the queen was temporarily in charge of the jade seal. It was only a temporary measure. Now in this extraordinary period,
When it comes to the inheritance of the country, if the emperor cannot personally hold this jade seal, it should be kept by the Dazai who is in charge of the sacrifice. This is the law of the country!"
Liu Yu nodded, looked at Wang Shen'ai, and smiled slightly: "Then, Queen Wang, please follow the law and give this jade seal to His Royal Highness King Langya. He is the Dazai and the closest clan prince to Your Majesty.
