Guo Wei's face was as pale as paper, but his attitude was still arrogant. After a moment of silence, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "What a great emperor. You are really smart. I am proud to have a nephew like you. I have never admired him in my life."
People, and you are the first and only one. The so-called winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. The worst I can do is die."
This is what you said. This is what I was waiting for, "Come here, pull Guo Wei out of the Meridian Gate immediately and behead him in public!" Shao Yan shouted with a stern face, and a dozen eunuchs rushed towards Guo Wei.
Instead of showing any fear, Guo Wei raised his head and laughed wildly, "I would not regret dying, but you have to pay the price of a kingdom."
Threat, definitely a threat, you are nothing! Am I still afraid of you? Shao Yan said angrily: "Keeping a scum of society like you is more painful for me than losing a country. What you said today
It's useless. I think you are my uncle, so I'll leave your body intact."
Seeing a dozen eunuchs approaching with knives, Zhao Dezhu and others quickly picked up the weapons on the ground to protect Guo Wei. Soon they formed a confrontation with the eunuchs who rushed up. The two sides stared at each other with daggers drawn, and there was chaos in the court.
The ministers were afraid that they would accidentally become the victims of the sword, so they hurriedly retreated to a corner, some even lying on the ground regardless of their status. Empress Dowager Guo was worried that her son would be harmed, so she hurried over and pulled Shao Yan to the dragon.
behind the chair
"Zhao Dezhu, it seems that you want to rebel, right?" Shao Yan was not too surprised by Zhao Dezhu's bold move. Zhao Dezhu was promoted by Guo Wei in his early years, so he always obeyed Guo Wei's words, no matter where he went.
They all followed his lead. Seeing Guo Wei in trouble at this moment, he naturally would not stand idly by. From this point of view alone, Shao Yan admired his loyalty from the bottom of his heart. It was strange that he was with the wrong person.
"I beg the Emperor to pardon the Prince Regent. I am willing to die on behalf of the Prince." Zhao Dezhu kowtowed.
Foolish loyalty! These two words flashed in Shao Yan's ears, and he smiled bitterly and said: "Guo Wei has committed crimes below, and his crimes are heinous. How can I let him go with just a word from you? Besides, you can't even save your own life, so what else can you do?
Die on his behalf?"
"As long as the emperor can pardon the prince's death penalty, this slave will do it in the next life-"
"Do you want to be a cow or a horse? Why do I need so many cows and horses?" Shao Yan said angrily: "Guo Wei's sins are serious. If I can spare him, I am afraid that God will not tolerate it. Don't think that I am young and don't know everything.
, I tell you, I have found out all the evil deeds you two have committed over the years." After that, Shao Yan took out an envelope from his arms and threw it down the hall, "
It contains detailed records about the massacre of thirty-three members of Yuntianlin's family. Take it and see it for yourselves."
All the ministers were shocked. In fact, many of them knew the truth of this case. Because this case was very involved, they did not dare to talk nonsense outside. Unexpectedly, ten years later, a weak-headed young man could tell the truth.
Everyone had to look at the young new emperor with admiration. However, Queen Mother Guo's expression became a little uneasy, as if she had a thorn in her butt. She moved a few times and then felt embarrassed to stand up.
Guo Wei opened the envelope carefully and found that the top of the letter was written with the four bloody words "Kill to pay for life". Below it was a record of the entire process of killing Yuntianlin's family. At the end, he seemed to see Yuntianlin's bloody face.
His face suddenly changed with fright. Due to the high tension in his heart, his body shook involuntarily and he almost fell to the ground. Zhao Dezhu quietly put his head in front of him and said worriedly: "Your Majesty,
It seems that we were betrayed by that old guy Jiang Guixiang. It’s all our fault that our subordinates were careless and let this old guy run away.”
Guo Wei shook his head and said: "I can't blame you for this, it's just that this old man is too cunning."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates have taken care of everything. Brothers are already waiting outside. As long as the dog emperor dares to mess around, I will fight these eunuchs to the death."
Guo Wei frowned and said: "No, I still have a trump card in my hand. I'm sorry that the little emperor doesn't dare to do anything to me. We will continue to fight back unless we have to. Remember, there is no order from me for a while.
You must not mess around, understand?"
"I understand, I will watch the little emperor's show later." A sly smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Dezhu's mouth.
Seeing the two guys constantly exchanging glances, Shao Yan knew that they must have no good intentions. In line with the principle of guarding against others, Shao Yan stood at the highest point of the hall, pointed directly at the two of them, and said angrily:
"You two, don't have any illusions there. Killing to pay for life is a matter of course. When someone comes, take down all the people quickly. If there is any disobedience, they will be killed without mercy."
"Wait a minute, I have something else to say," Guo Wei shouted
Shao Yan immediately ordered the eunuchs to stop. Seeing Guo Wei's face full of energy, Shao Yan was stunned. Damn it, is this guy really not afraid of death, or did he win the lottery? At this moment, he can still laugh.
I was probably scared out of my wits. Wow, he actually smiled so lewdly. I really impressed him.
Smiling on the surface is not a good thing. After many years of clinical practice by Shao Yan, it has been shown that these ten words can definitely be regarded as classic mantras, "If you have anything to say, just say it quickly."
Guo Wei raised his head and looked at Queen Mother Guo, and then said in a nonchalant way: "If the emperor punishes one of the ministers for committing the crime, the ministers will have nothing to say, but if the emperor accuses the ministers of killing all the crimes, he will blame them all.
"I am dissatisfied." This old guy was suddenly demoted from 'my king' to 'wei minister'. On the surface, he seems to be following the rules, but he doesn't know what dirty things he is thinking in his heart.
"What you mean by this is that you are indirectly accusing me of wrongly blaming you?"
"Wei Chen has no such intention." Guo Wei smiled maliciously, "Since ancient times, if the emperor wants his minister to die, he has to die. If the emperor really wants to execute Wei Chen, it will be difficult for Wei Chen to defend himself even if he wants to impose it.
Sin, why worry about it?"
"Stop being so verbose, just say what you want and fart when you want. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." Shao Yan was annoyed.
Guo Wei chuckled and said: "Your Majesty is very aware of everything, and nothing can be hidden from your eyes. Yes, the massacre of Yuntianlin's family back then was indeed the work of Wei Chen, but Wei Chen also acted under the orders of others. Since the Emperor has a clear intention,
Investigate this case, why not find out the real culprit together, so that we can fully redress Master Yun's injustice?"
Shao Yan was stunned for a moment. Jiang is still too old. This guy needs someone to support him before he dies. But looking at his character, it doesn't look like he is just trying to catch the wind. Could it be that he was following the old emperor's orders? Then he thought.
When I thought about it, it was impossible. It was said that Yuntianlin was so highly regarded by the old emperor during his lifetime that he even entrusted him with such a big matter as selecting a concubine and establishing a queen. How could he kill him on the spur of the moment? From my perspective, it must be this.
Has Shilang Yun offended someone in the court? But Guo Wei has already gained all the power in the court. Who else is more powerful than him? Could it be——? Shao Yan suddenly turned his eyes to the Empress Dowager Guo behind him, only to realize that the Empress Dowager Guo was at the moment.
Looking at himself tremblingly, his frightened eyes looked like a frightened rabbit
"Your Majesty is indeed talented and intelligent, and he thought of 'someone else' so quickly, hahaha..." Guo Wei laughed heartily, and then faced Empress Dowager Guo with a half-smile but not a smile: "Sister, now that things have come to an end, you can put everything aside."
Tell the emperor that the emperor is so filial to you, even if you made some mistakes back then, he would not do anything to you."
Seeing that the Empress Dowager Guo was blushing and afraid to speak, Guo Wei said coldly: "Since the Empress Dowager refuses to speak, let the ministers do it for me." He cleared his throat and said, "The thing is like this. Ten years ago, Yuntianlin, the Minister of Rites,
When choosing a concubine for the late emperor, there was a beautiful woman named Chen Shishi in the south of the Yangtze River. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. The late emperor hit it off with this girl Chen and made her a noblewoman, with a status second only to the queen."
"Since Chen Guiren entered the palace, the late emperor gradually became a little cold towards the queen. Fortunately, the queen already has a ten-year-old prince by her side, which is you, the emperor. The late emperor gave up the idea of changing Chen Guiren to the queen.
, Later, relying on the emperor's favor, Chen Guiren repeatedly asked the Minister of Rites to persuade the late emperor to depose the queen. The Minister of Rites was upright and naturally would not accept Chen Guiren's rude request. Chen Guiren was unwilling to accept it, so he pretended to ask Yuntianlin for advice.
Yi deceived Yuntianlin into the harem, and secretly put Mongolian sweat medicine into the tea when he was not prepared. When Yuntianlin woke up, he found that he was already lying in Wenrou Township. Alas, it was too late to regret it. After that -,
