Chapter 1,109: When you mention a wooden stick, it means beating
Mr. Zaifu has resigned from office for a long time.
This old man who has been playing a very important role in the court for many years has not been able to defeat the power of time. After His Royal Highness took charge of the country, his health became worse day by day. In the past few years, he had to retire and leave.
officialdom.
But in the past ten years, Mr. Zaifu has had great influence in the court. At least among the civil servants, most of them admired Mr. Zaifu.
Therefore, when the old Zaifu, who could no longer get up and could only be carried into the main hall, appeared in front of everyone, the main hall finally became truly quiet.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood up from his chair and then walked down. He still had some feelings for this old man, the Prime Minister. He had just started supervising the country at the beginning, and this old man taught him many things.
When he came to the side of Mr. Zaifu and looked at Mr. Zaifu who was carried in while sitting in a recliner, His Royal Highness stared at his cheeks that had almost no flesh and blood, and looked at his lifeless eyes, which were white and
With few eyebrows, His Highness the Crown Prince's thoughts suddenly became complicated, but he finally spoke, "My lord, are you here today to persuade me to move the capital?"
There was already a quarrel in the main hall over whether the capital should be moved, but it was obvious that the courtiers who supported moving the capital were in the majority. It would be fine if these people were all doing it for themselves. On the contrary, things would be much simpler, but it made people
What I find troubling is that there are indeed some courtiers who really consider moving the capital for the sake of the country.
Sometimes we can’t say right or wrong, but there are always differences of opinion. ??
So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very troubled.
Mr. Zaifu listened to His Highness the Crown Prince's questions. It took a long time for his very cloudy eyes to regain some brightness. He is too old and may die at any time, so he may not be able to hear clearly.
His Highness the Crown Prince's question, but this is not important. Since he had already made up his mind about what to say before coming, it doesn't matter whether he heard clearly what His Highness the Crown Prince said.
Mr. Zaifu's voice was very weak, and he could not finish a sentence completely. As soon as he started to speak, he was breathing heavily. His condition made people doubt whether he could finish the sentence.
What you want to say.
The courtiers held their breath and listened attentively, not wanting to miss anything the prime minister said. If he finally said that he was requesting to move the capital, then for those courtiers who supported the move of the capital,
#Every time verification appears, please do not use incognito mode!
It is definitely a big plus for him, because his prestige is very high, and as long as he says so, things are likely to happen.
The military attachés were also very nervous, and naturally they did not want to hear such words.
After resting for a while, the old man finally calmed down, but the courtiers felt that it had been a long time and gradually became a little agitated.
People are always like this. When they are highly nervous, they cannot tell the length of time.
"Your Highness... we must move the capital as soon as possible!"
This time, Mr. Zaifu tried his best to open his mouth and used the last strength of his life to say what he wanted to say.
The sound is still not loud, but it is indeed not too quiet.
The courtiers heard it clearly.
This sentence only has a conclusion and no reason. The boss did not say why the capital cannot be moved, because to tell those reasons, it would take a lot of words.
But Mr. Zaifu was speechless, because after saying these words, this former civil servant closed his eyes that had long been unable to see the world.
Mr. Zaifu passed away suddenly.
The courtiers in the main hall looked at this scene and were a little distracted for a moment. They didn't know whether they were sad or something else. Maybe they were just thinking about why the old prime minister had to climb up from the collapse of his home at the last moment of his life.
I am here just to say this.
Whether the capital is moved or not has no impact on this old man at all, because he has reached the end of his life, but at this time, he still wants to say these words, which shows that he is indeed only for the people of the world and the country.
His Highness the Crown Prince's face turned ugly. This was the ugliest look on his face today.
The last words in Mr. Zaifu's life were so heavy that His Royal Highness could not bear them, so they caused him some pain.
"Your Highness, even Mr. Zaifu has said this. I believe that moving the capital cannot be delayed without delay!"
In the hall, the voices of the courtiers sounded again. The words of Mr. Zaifu were hurt to His Highness, but to them, they were a sharp sword and an incomparably solid backing.
His Royal Highness did not speak.
"Your Highness, we want to move the capital for the sake of the Chen royal family and the people of Li!"
"Your Highness, there must be no hesitation at this moment. Parts of the Great Wall in the North have been lost. It is only a matter of time before the monsters move south!"
"Your Highness..."
The courtiers who supported the relocation of the capital became louder and louder, but the military attachés fell silent. They were not good at quarreling. Now that Master Zaifu said those words, they all had to think about whether relocating the capital was really a possibility.
The right thing.
But at this moment, no one noticed that in the corner of the hall, a courtier took off his official hat, rolled up his sleeves, and even made an action that farm men often do, which is to vomit.
He took a sip of saliva on his palms and then rubbed his hands together.
Then he snatched the palace lantern from the hand of the chamberlain beside him, wiped it away, and the thing in his hand turned into a stick.
Holding the stick, he rushed towards the crowd. When he reached the crowd, he hit the loudest courtier on the back of the head with the stick.
With a snap, the wooden stick in his hand broke on the spot, and the courtier fell down, clutching the back of his head and wailing continuously.
Blood flowed out quickly.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then someone quickly reacted, "Mi Ke, what are you doing?!"
The courtier who beat him was none other than Mi Ke.
At the beginning, he was just a small magistrate of Tianqing County, but now he has become the Minister of Household Affairs and a real important minister of the imperial court.
No one expected that such an important official of the imperial court would do such a thing in the main hall.
"What are you doing? I'm beating you idiots. The people pay to support you, but you idiots are here watching those people die, and in the end you still talk about doing things for the people.
High-sounding nonsense! It doesn’t matter what Mr. Zaifu said about moving the capital, he is just an old fool, what’s the point of talking foolishly?!”
While he was talking, he was not idle. He waved his stick and hit the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Liubu Hall, who were the real big shots in the court, but Mi Ke did not hesitate at all.
Looking at this scene, everyone felt that it seemed a bit ridiculous.

The minister, holding a broken stick, was beating an important person who usually needs to be treated with respect.
Especially this person is Mi Ke.
In fact, many people know that officials like Mi Ke who were transferred from the local area to Shendu have always been careful with their tail between their legs because they have no backers in the Shendu officialdom. He can do such a thing today.
No one can think of it.
The courtiers, especially the civil servants, must have the highest respect for Mr. Zaifu, but here in Mi Ke, he can actually be called an old fool.
However, because of Mi Ke's action, the hall quickly became a mess. Those civil servants were all scholars, and doing things they thought was degrading to politeness, so a scene that made people laugh and cry soon appeared in the hall.
That was Mi Ke, who was holding a half stick and chasing after those civil servants who said they wanted to move the capital.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Mi Ke was hunched over with his stick, looking at the group of courtiers in the distance, breathing heavily, then he looked at the military attachés not far away and shouted: "What are you still doing?
Let’s fight together!”
The military attaches looked at each other. Although they all had not read many books, they knew where this place was. No matter how angry they were before, they never thought of taking action. But now someone has taken action, even a civil servant. This really makes them a little bit nervous.
Eager to try.
However, they still looked at the Crown Prince.
His Highness the Crown Prince frowned and just stood here without saying a word.
Maybe he was still thinking about what Mr. Zaifu said, so much so that Mi Ke started beating people and turned a blind eye?
The courtiers had actually been waiting for His Highness the Crown Prince to speak, but they never came.
"Mi Ke, you are also a scholar and an official of the imperial court. Don't do such a disgraceful thing!"
"Mi Ke, you don't want to be an official anymore?!"
"Mi Ke..."
While Mi Ke was breathing heavily, the courtiers began to reprimand the Minister of Household Affairs.
However, Mi Ke ignored him and just murmured: "If I had known earlier, I would have asked that boy from Chen Chao for some training methods. Otherwise, there would be no need to rest when we beat these guys today."
After saying this, Mi Ke cheered up, shouted, and continued to rush towards the group of courtiers.
